Is there any time you heard that Boko Haram were out on the streets protesting for referendum to solve their grievance?




So it Is the job of the federal government to go about shooting unarmed people because government does not like what they are agitating for? Kanu is not experimenting with anyone's life, it is government killing unarmed people




You are not ashamed that you are defending Herdsmen that have killed thousands of people this year alone. They went to Agatu, Benue state, and killed over 500 people in 2016. Few months ago, they went to a Church in Benue, killed 17 people including 2 reverend father's. But your headache is that Kanu talked in an uncouth way



We are back to "Kanu talked". I don't care what Kanu said or didn't say, many others are out there killing people which is far much worse than talking. What I care about is about is referendum so that my fellow Igbos can decide their destiny.

People like you are the problem and not the illiterates.
All you can deduce from my herdsmen comment is that I am defending them. Right?
Classical Nnamdi Kanu tactics. Shame or accuse anyone who you don't understand or doesn't agree with you. How do you plan to achieve anything when you go about alienating every (or seemingly) opposing view from your supposed camp. Was it not the revered Ben Nwabueze that his IPOB attacked last week for hugging Atiku?
The fact is that Kanu is directionless but he knows exactly what he is doing. He doesn't care about direction. He only cares about about converting more zombies (most of whom are in diaspora) who can send him money. Thats all that matters to him.

If you keep saying that you dont care what he says but his message then you have failed simple logic because your message is always embedded in what you are saying and how you are saying it. None of you have ever wondered how he can get his referendum with his hate speeches, all you know is you want referendum. Nobody asks how?
Do you think the powers that be in world cares?


Please stop telling me herdsmen news because I know it more than you. It is real people on the ground here that challenge them and scare them away which is the only reason they haven't started killing here too.
If you keep listening to Kanu claiming to be a prophet prophesying that they will soon come, then you guys are late and are fooling yourselves because they are already here - years before Nnamdi Kanu's scam but its people who are pushing them back not words and propaganda.

gidgiddy:
You are laughable. You belong to a country where other groups like Boko Haram, Herdsmen, Niger Delta Militants are all armed and killing people but you are judging an unarmed Kanu who touched nobody for talking in an uncouth way?

The reason people like you talk like this is because you haven't experienced anything yet. The day Herdsmen will chase you out of you or community with AK47, you will realise that Kanu's uncouth way of talking is the least of your problem in Nigeria.

The crux of the matter is that it is the right of the Igbos to decide if they want to be part of Nigeria or not via a referendum. All other things about how Kanu behaves or talks is secondary and beside the point

Boko Haram didnt start by carrying arms. Someone kept telling them to do it and at some point with the right fuel, they started. Even boko haram starter wasnt half as uncouth as the scammer Kanu.

No, you are wrong. People like me talk because we are on ground and we know that no one gets anything good out of kanu's experiment with lives of productive youths.
As for herdsmen, because you know nothing, someone like Kanu can cash in on the ignorance of person like you who knows little and tell trash. Herdsmen has been coming to us here in anambra for ages here and we have been chasing them away with little resistance.
One of such incident in my neighboring town was widely circulated on the internet not too long ago. It is people like you that Kanu will scare with herdsmen stories and others. For sure there is a Fulani agenda on going but it didnt start today and it is not Kanu that exposed it as he always claims.

Like I said before he uses half truths and mild events that are obvious to an enlightened mind and use lies, Photoshop and big grammar to make it look more serious than they really are to illiterates.

It is working for him so far but trust me, our people have started asking some pertinent questions.

That is why I said even if the SW 'dashes' igbos 5-million out of our total SW population (going by that data I presented), una go still fall far short. Oyo and Ogun combined telecoms data subscribers outnumber those of the entire SE states combined. That's just two states in the SW. The 4 remaining SW states (as well as Kwara and YOruba-speaking Kogi) have a combined telecoms subscriber base of atleast 28-million. If you still don't get it, then I cannot help you. I dey go to bed.

Ova this is statistics you are dashing out anyhow.
There are many other things to put on the table before 'dashing'.
How on earth can you be judging ethnic composition with telecom subscription.
Can you as it is say the number of non Yoruba people in Lagos, Ibadan and Abeokuta. You have to know these figures before you dash any figure to anyone. The cities especially Lagos are highly saturated with non Yoruba and there's no way you can say for sure that Yoruba is more than visitors there.
Telecom companies are within Nigeria and if it is possible that census figures can be tampered by political powers then telecom companies are not free from it.
These are not emotional stuffs it's just what it is and now that a neutral body that is outside of any sort of Nigerian political influence has released it; maybe you guys can give it a hard thought.

Those guys that were feeding him stout should better disappear.

I hate saying this but I have checked all the critical curves and contours and I find it hard to believe you didn't do this with computer software?

how can you get all details and I mean "EVERY" details on point.

I am not explicitly saying I dont believe; I just need more conviction.

seunmsg:
Tinubu is busy building bridges of unity all over the country while his haters are crying all over social media.

Cc: lalasticlala, Mynd44.

I seriously don't understand you people.
So building bridges have now cancelled out his corruption which is the only thing people are crying all over the social media for?

If you tell me he is not corrupt or that I have no proof (as I am already sure you will ), please don't open your hypocritical mouth to call Atiku or anyone at that corrupt cos that is the only word you lot embrace when reason or facts desert you.

Jiang:
Am pretty sure osinbajo was just being sarcastic & throwing jabs at adeleke, not like he means to really dance, what surprised me the most is how obi with all his supposed intelligence & credentials took the words literary, this is a guy that wants to be VP woh. Naija politicians are a joke, both APC & PDP, Mr obi just made me see him same as the empty headed politicians out there

But the joke is on you here.
If you read his comments he first said he is just coming back to the country and have not read the dailies but he doesn't believe that Osibanjo being a gentleman will make such comment.
Then he dropped the epic shade. Which will apply if Osibanjo did actually make the comment.

Imo, they are basically the same.

The software is basically the foundation of the program.

How hard is it to sit back, close your mouth and learn whenever a subject you don't understand comes up.

Politicians from these southwest are redefining the Word "ZOMBIE"

A Nigerian woman, Meg Reuben, has gone viral after she danced shaku shaku while she was being called to bar in Ontario, Canada. She shared the video on IG with the caption

Their Fadaaa!! Guess who took shaku-shaku to be called to the Ontario Bar in Canada!! Yours truly I didn't have the liver to try it back in 2007 when I was being called to the Nigerian Bar though!! ??

Watch video

“The suspect is fluent in English, Ibibio, Russian and Portuguese languages respectively; the phone and the SIM card he used for the threat and intimidation were recovered from him and were discovered to have been robbed by him from a lady (name withheld) who identified him as the person that robbed her few months back.

Which one is he now? A robber or fraudster.

This movie is poorly scripted!

senatordave1:
The constitution has given inec that power to regulate elections as it pleases legally.all this has been settled by the supreme court in 2016.inec hasnt declared anybody winner yet,it only declared results leaving out 7 polling units which is enough to affect the entire margin.there is no winner until the issue of 7 polling units is resolved

To regulate elections as it pleases as long as it doesn't go against the constitution and I am sure you know I wasn't talking about overall winner here but winner of an LGA.
Anyways, if the thursday outcome doesnt favour Adeleke, I am sure he will want the court to do further interpretations and I am convinced he will win in the courts.

senatordave1:
Yes,inec declared all the results of all the local govts but in four lgas,results of seven polling units were cancelled due to several irregularities.the votes from this cancelled units is enough to affect the margin between pdp and apc hence the supplementary polls.when inec declares results,it doesnt mean that elections held everywhere and results were declared.there will always be cancellations.
Before 2010,pdp usually caused cancellations in areas where they are weak so that results declared will be from only where they are strong.inec then introduced supplementary polls in 2010 to remedy this evil act.it was first used in imo in 2011.this rule only applies to guber and presidential polls not legislative polls.bye polls,reruns are also excluded

If you declare an LGA results it means you have concluded with that LGA.
If you have an unfinished business with an LGA, you have no business declaring the result of that LGA and declaring someone a winner of that LGA and then turn back and say some polling units of that LGA had some results cancelled is illegal.
You do not have such power as INEC.

That's the argument here.

senatordave1:
Your getting confused.no results from those areas were declared.they were cancelled even before the close of voting

My bad!
Please educate me.
Which LGA(s) results in Osun were not declared. I thought every LGA result were declared before the final total count was reached.

senatordave1:
Its actually you that is being misled.inec inec is telling you that elections were cancelled there,what is your problem? Do you know more than inec? Or are you an excellency for nothing

Results are first declared in local governments abi?
Now, were the the results of the affected local governments which housed the affected polling units declared by the REC of that LGA?

The argument here is that once you declare result of an election its only a tribunal that can void it.

Pentools:
You're simply nut man!
Must you make mention of those two institutions
I'm certainly sure they're very much better than most universities in Nigeria.

See this mumu throwing feet at unizik and Esut as if they produce dunce.

Actually, I am a UNIZIK alumni and that is why I turned out just fine and won't stoop low to exchange words with you. My post did not in any way denigrate any of the institutions I mentioned.
The only way you can arrive at such conclusion is if you have serious challenges with English Language yourself.

Hi, my name is Jay currently based in dc usa.
I studied mech engine back in naija with CGPA 4.02. I came to state for my masters degree. After msc, i stayed back, mind u im a permenent resident. With experience i have here in state, i wud advice u to stay back in naija and start somtin wt d 2m while u pursue and advance your career, coming to state with student visa/f1 and buget of 2m naira without back up would frustrate u. Dont hope of gaining full employment after msc bc no firm would file work permit base on your course. If u wish of staying back after msc, think of starting afresh, think of health related courses, a lot of hospitals and nursing homes would file work permit provided u are willing to dance to their condition.
Thanks

Wonderful!!!
How did you manage to get 4.02 CGPA, resident permit and even get an admission for master's degree in the "state" with your bad grammar and woeful writing skill?
While English is not everything, one of these feats must surely require some sort of English proficiency demonstration.
So tell me, are you truly in "state" or are you just another UNIZIK or ESUT Mechanical Engineering student battling with O.D.E in second year but hoping to work in the US in the future.

Genny is a Celeb to other celebrities! She doesn't make noise! A big achiever!
Congratulations to her and Nollywood by extension... Very soon, I see the whole of African movie industries bearing one name "Nollywood" just like almost all white movie industries are bearing "Hollywood". This would make the African movie industry great with Nigeria being the headquarters!
Genny is really doing great! She is the real Nollywood Sweetheart and the Face Of African Cinema

The day Lagos State account will be independently audited to cover for the last 19 years, people will see the type of corruption and stealing that has never been witnessed in any country ever before.

deomelo:
Since you've been to Ethiopia and have seen their wonderful metro rail across so many terrains, please show us the rail tracks and bridge they built over swamp and marshland like they did in Lagos.

Show us the bridge they built over kilometers of Lagoon water like they did in Lagos.

Show us the Metro stations they built in Ethiopia and let's compare with the ones in Lagos.


I know you can not answer these questions because all you spewed was the same ignorant rubbish we've been reading in this thread.

Sometimes our leaders are not the problem, the ignorant, lying, hateful and deceptive youths are the problem..

I am not interested in ultimately unfruitful back and forth with you because you are not going to admit you are wrong even when shown any unsubstantiated claim you make.
The only lesson I would like you to learn from all these is that throwing around fake facts to make yourself appear smart might work for few but will mostly make you look stupid to many others.

RockHard:
Eh.. this has been thrashed here before. They are not the same model. Besides, the Lagos one has met with series of challenges that's affected its timely delivery.

Lagos light rail is elevated for most parts since it runs on swampy land and it's also a 2 way rail.

You'll have to calculate the cost of the pilings, the concrete footings and it's larger size to accommodate the 2 trains at the same time.

It also crosses a water body and it's complete with a super highway that runs alongside it with pedestrian bridges linking the train stations which are also elevated.

The Ethiopian Lightrail runs on land and is a normal railway line with stops alongside it.

Their specifications and topography are miles apart, hence the cost difference and delivery timing. (Credit to ba7man).

You are lying but you don't even know it because you have not been to Addis Ababa before and you didn't bother that someone else here might have.

You guys here are ready to swear under oath or risk your life to defend corrupt politicians even when you will not get shi shi out of it.

Ethiopian Light rail doesnt ALL run on land just like Lagos Light rail as well doesn't on the Badagry expressway axis.

Her spoken Igbo is impeccable.

Few Yoruba dudes I know like that.

Butterflyleo:
Thanks to ipobians who are sitting back calling fellow IBOs who support Buhari unprintable names while the south south are repositioning wisely to the centre.

Their mental marginalization is their bane.

Same here on nairaland. We know those who voted are them same way they conducted a poll and Fayose won online but lost in reality. Same way the conducted other polls and won online but lost in reality.

3 online polls and 3 online wins but the reality on ground made them loose 3 PDP states.

We will keep Nigerian clean

Are you OK?
You are just contradicting your self up and down.
First you waved polls on our faces and when you were killed there, you started going against it.

I guess it's not easy keeping up with multiple view points you guys maintain simultaneously in your line of work at the BMC.

Butterflyleo:
That is not the opinion in the streets

And note that the person who conducted the attached poll is a staunch die hard PDP loyalist.

His poll had about 7000 voters

We have seen countless polls recently, most of them Buhari did so poorly.

Infact either Atiku or someon else beat him in one foreign APC twitter page.

Meanwhile, twitter is not Nigerian street. People are being killed in their homes and farms on empty stomach.

My own:

"Because Buhari was undergoing a procedure in a UK hospital which couldnt allow him to take calls, repeated calls from Daura to confirm from him whether to abort the seige as it is obviously backfiring met brick walls.

Daura therefore decided to to continue hoping their relationship will take care of all in the end but he was wrong. Buhari came out of the procedure and was bombarded by the embarrasing news from Nigeria, he had no choice but to sacrifice his blood!"

NuclearWinter:
Osinbanjo was told blankly by Lawal Duara that he is only answerable to Buhari and that Osinbanjo should get ready to be dumped as Buhari's running mate.

Osinbanjo went to his corner and after several calls to Buhari, Osinbanjo reported what Lawal just told him.

Tears rolling down his cheeks, Osinbanjo asked Buhari if it is true that he was planning to dump him for Akpabio. Buhari responded by saying "Yemisi, I thought Asiwaju told you". Osinbanjo will fire back "stop calling me Yemisi or Yomi. I have been correcting you for over 3yrs now, my name is Yemi!"
Osinbanjo will then tell Buhari he will resign and handover to Saraki to "deal with you".


Buhari then caved in and then begged Yemisi.


The rest is history.

Abi? Let the spinning continue!!

You guys aren't tired of spinning this thing already?

Please, if you are truly a nationalist and not a paid zombie, just accept it as we have years before even 2015 elections: Buhari is as bad as every other Nigerian politician.

I know it is hard to change a belief system but that is just what it is.
