eggheaders: lols have seen more than 2000 of your kinsmen in Ibadan since my less than 5 hours arrival. no distraction dude we are waiting for the business idea y'all are thought from the womb by the angels.
Thats what I am telling you, we are in Ibadan but we love to buy Lagos, call it strategic invasion or investment instinct but yeah, we dont need Ibadan except to hustle.

Aigbofa: One of you asked on this thread if anyone can point to a property in Lagos or Abuja that is not owned by Igbo! Even you will admit some of you are extremely delusional.
That was probably an exeggeration which is well accepted in literary works, but the fun was lost on you due to your blind hate. We catch our fun, nothing serious.

Gbawe: Don't let them dodge the bullet and take you in a direction that hides their ignorance and the fact that they are losers, empty braggarts and petty hustlers. Continue to insist they personally school us about business with their own direct ideas and unique insight. Nothing more nothing less. They are all "business geniuses" and we expect to be shown this since we Yorubas no sabi. Abeg,no distractions. We want to learn business ideas from those who wrote the book and we believe everyone one of you is endowed from the womb to teach us this. The floor is your and do not disappoint. Please school us.
I am afraid you will never learn it our way since you see any humble beginning as lowly. You should continue to engage yourselves in jobs and positions reserved for you by the poison drinker so you can continue to remain relevant. We dont even need those positions, we have learned to grow and succeed our own way, not a few billionairs, but many millionairs from all compounds.

Politics › Re: Islamic Republic Of Nigeria Come 2014 by vanbonattel: 6:12pm On Jun 03, 2013
idumuose: Nigeria will be 100years on jan 1 2014.A lot of pundits have
Predicted the breakup of the Country in 2014 because 1885
Treaty in Germany allows any component part of a country to
Break up once a country reaches the age of 100years.
I began to think;if northern part decides to go,what name will
They give their new country?somebody suggested Arab republic
Of Nigeria or Islamic republic of Nigeria.And if they bear this
Name,they will be a thorn in the flesh of Nigeria.I do not pray
4 a breakup of Nigeria bcause population is an advantage.
Records show that a country's wealth is directly proportional
To her population.China is the richest in Asia and has the
Highest population.Brazil is the richest in south-America and
Has the highest population.United states is the richest in North
America and has the highest population.Germany is the richest in
Western europe and has the highest population.Russia is the richest
In eastern europe and has the highest population.
In Africa Nigeria has the highest population but South Africa is
The richest.Let us stay together and build Nigeria. Ɣ☺u aint
Going nowhere.
Nigeria great people,great nation.God bless Nigeria.
Are you an almajirin by any chance?

Underground, not dug up from the soil. And it will look rusty because of months of dampness and heat. That is why you failed JAMB.

4chi: Son of Hell, he dey pain you? Sorry o! Like the typical wrapper tying yaminrin that you are, this was the best you can come up with. Your FATHERS were decimated and lost a war so very hopelessly. I had to mention Yoruba war heroes who taught your forebears that the art of war is not about wrestling with amalinze the cat, eating akpu or shouting nzogbu,nzogbu all over the place like a demented pack. I tell you again,it's scorched earth this time if you try anything stupid.you are aa odious pack of people who find it hard to be at peace with your neighbours.

See the slowpoke talking about ingenuity,in what? Importing fake drugs and fake parts? Or carrying drugs to Thailand/ china and using the evil proceeds to import cra.ps to Alaba and ladipo?
Or opening "baby manufacturing factories", or kidnapping and armed robbery. Your so called republicanism is utter trash! Your forebears are primitives who couldn't organise beyond the village level ALL your major towns to this day are creations of the colonialists. May God punish lord lugard for lumping with us an evolving race of primitives who really should have been merged with their Pygmy brothers in the Congo...
Never have I seen so much rubbish written on one page. Are you gay?

Finally somebody is making attempts to discredit the "arengee" census figures being circulated since 1963. Kudos to Fashola. Let us know how many Igbos there are in Lagos, if they are up to 60 percent, then they float an OgbonnaIkenna to replace fashola in 2015. Eko oni baje o grin

50calibre: Which jihadist network? I don't know why people don't see the truth. If you want to hear real and unbiased news, aljazeera is your channel. Simple

They report from anywhere, even places that other propaganda channels don't go and FYI Al Jazeera is banned in radical radical countries like Iraq, Bahrain, Israel because Al Jazeera says things others dare not say.

Their African correspondent Yvonne Ndege goes into the mouth of the beast to report from, tell me how many can
Al jazeera reports absolute undiluted trash, I dont know how to permanently block them from my channels.

Politics › Re: Wole Soyinka's Interview About Chinua Achebe by vanbonattel: 10:27pm On Jun 01, 2013
Honestly, I cannot understand why people are still arguing on this thread.

The fact still remains that Chinua Achebe spoke like a man, and the world stood up and gave him an ovation that is still reverbrating in the four corners of this world. Never before has an African been so honoured, never before had white skinned intelligentia stood so still to understand the African continent like they are doing now. Achebe is a hero, he fought like a man, cleared the whole battlefield without shooting a single bullet. Achebe ia a warrior!
Politics › Re: 2nd Niger Bride: Lagos To The Rescue!? by vanbonattel: 10:08pm On Jun 01, 2013
I think the first Niger bride was oil, if Lagos should give them a second bride, her name should be Folshade, Simbiatu or Bimbola.

I was telling them that if they want competent people, they should throw the process open and allow everybody to compete for job vacancies. You will see a lot of Chukwuma, Okoro, Onwudiwe, Mbanefo, Kalu and Uwgu on the Lagos state payroll grin
Politics › Re: Wole Soyinka's Interview About Chinua Achebe by vanbonattel: 3:05pm On May 26, 2013
Mr Johnson, I am not surprised about your postulations because Achebe himself pointed out this flaw with the average Nigerian person. He talked about Meritocracy and mediocrity. The problem we got in this country started soon after the 1966 coup ended, the plotters of the coup were completely stupid I agree, they should have killed Zik and Okpara. But lets talk about that another day.

The problem started when the Igbo administrators and managers to so many companies and govt parastatals were chased away from Lagos and Kaduna, Kano. Unqualified men were hurriedly appointed to replace them and everybody wanted to fill the vacancies with people of their tribes. Nobody wanted to make sure merit was employed, just give me my tribesman and that was how we got into this mess. Hausas promoted their people in the army while yoruba promoted their people in the civil service and companies.

The Igbos were blocked out as mediocrity reigned supreme, hausa/fulani/yoruba mismanaged everything between 1970 till 1998. The Igbos went into business and are still there, more left the country (like myself) when it became clear that the Hausa/yoruba government are leading us into the thick forest.

My point is that Achebe merits to be called father of African literature, but you are fighting hard to bring up a mediocre to that position just because of your tribal sentiments.

honey86: Why can't this administration put plans in place to build a border fence.?. Afterall the boko haramists are not Nigerians, they are Chadians and nigeriens who came in because the border is porous.
And they cannot jump the fence? The problem is that the people up north are in sympathy with them and are mixing up with them. You need more than a fence to stop people who has the same ideological thought patterns from mixing up.

Once again I ask, "who is the father of African literature"?
Politics › Re: Wole Soyinka's Interview About Chinua Achebe by vanbonattel: 2:45pm On May 26, 2013
Ola Johnson: We needs facts. Warning! If you don't know what to comment just click "like" on any comment you like.
The facts are clear as the morning sunlight, Achebe is superior to whomever you want to compare him with literary on the black continent. Click "like" to this.
