GodIsBiafran:You need medication......deal with it, there's no tribe in Benue that has any affinity with the Igbos, what you have is simply a boundary simple!!! |
GodIsBiafran:Igalas, Idoma and Igbira have the same Akpoto origin......are Igbos also Akpoto?? |
DerideGull:All this grammar and you still can't name the 4 local governments.....SHAME........so many beer parlour historians here |
DerideGull:Minion, please educate me. |
DerideGull:In order for you not to also sound like an idiotic fool, name the 4 predominant igbo LGs in Benue |
GodIsBiafran:You might want to start making references instead of beer parlour insinuation....Tiv are Fulani cousin's How? The Tivs came from East Africa via the Cameroon mountains and are known to be one of the last groups to settle in Nigeria. The kwararafa tribes on the other hand had long standing interaction with the Fulani long before the Tivs came (try reading on the kwararafa wars). You lot with your Kanu of a leader know nothing about Benue or its history that's why you draw lines based on boundary and not history. Instead of using your internet connection on nairaland only, try a little research too like you recommended ![]() |
GodIsBiafran:How are the Tivs related to Fulani?? ??........between The idomas and the Igalas that are kwararafa and the Tivs that are migrant Bantu, who is more close to the Fulani? |
Splendid235:Name them!!!! |
nonaira:This is again why history has to be brought back to schools. Idoma and Igala are kwararafa tribes with absolutely no connection with Igbos .. Funny enough, the Tivs who are Bantu, natural republicans and are later day migrants to their present home could draw the lines more with connections to igbo......Of course there are no connections whatsoever with any of the three tribes with the igbos |
nzeobi:This is why history should be reintroduced in schools...........The Idomas like the jukun, the Igalas, the chamba, the Doma, The Nyifon, the Igede etc are a kwararafa tribe with absolutely no connection with the igbos. |

Gboko local government chairman in Benue has issued a letter dated 19th July barring PDP from all political activities in the local government. In the same letter, the chairman exempted the State governor and zone B senator as well as all elected APC officials from the ban. With the ban, the chairman has demonstrated that the laws applied for APC are different from the ones applied on PDP. See letter below (emphasis on number 2)

Wike giving Ortom nightmares, if this is the new form of campaigning then Wike is on point. Ortom is as useless as the 'P' in psychology. lalasticlala, ishilove |
Barely one week after he called for the imposition of a state of emergency in Benue State, over what he described as the state government’s show of incapability in handling security matters, Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has asked the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to probe Governor Samuel Ortom over the use of Paris Club refund allocation. This is coming at a time Wike has awarded contracts for the reconstruction of two roads in Benue. The Rivers State governor had, last week, called for the declaration of state of emergency in Benue State, following the killing of about 52 people in a market in Zaki Biam, Benue State. He had justified his call, saying the state government had shown ineptitude in tackling security problem. Speaking to Daily Sun on the Paris Club refunds allocation, Wike said despite the amount of money disbursed to Benue, the state government had not done much to cater to the needs of the people, hence the need for EFCC investigation. “The EFCC should look into the Paris Club refund allocation to Benue State because there is paucity of infrastructure in the state. The governor should be asked to account for the money and other allocations he has received in nearly two years in office,” he said. He said Benue people are suffering “because they don’t have dividends of democracy.” Wike said it was because of the concern for the suffering of the Benue people and respect as well as value he has for elder statesmen from the state that he has elected to reconstruct Makurdi-Naka-Adoka road and Aliade-Oju-Obarike-Ito-Otukpo road in Benue State. According to him, the contracts would cost him N4 billion, revealing that the roads’ “bill of quantity” had already been issued. “I sympathise with the suffering of Benue people. I value and respect the likes JS Tarka, Apar Aku, George Akume, Victor Malu and David Mark, all prominent indigenes of the state. That’s why I am financing the reconstruction of the roads. I think there is need for a probe of the finances of the state.” Wike had, last week, said declaration of a state of emergency in Benue had become necessary because Governor Ortom, had shown “ineptitude and lack of capacity to handle the situation.” According to him, “you can’t have a governor watching helplessly, as his people are being killed. What kind of governor is that? He has displayed sheer laziness and incapacity in the whole issue, and this is quite unfortunate.” The Rivers governor said although governors were not fully in charge of security in states, they are supposed to have strategies, working with security agencies, on how to combat crime. “No excuse is acceptable for the high number of deaths in Benue,” he said He said Benue had been in the news over wanton killings, which showed that the government had not done much in the area of security. Comparing Benue and his state, Wike said: “We didn’t even have the kind of insecurity and killings that we are witnessing in Benue today when some of these mischievous opposition in Abuja were calling for state of emergency in Rivers, but now they have suddenly lost their voices. You can see their level of hypocrisy and mischief? I am calling for an urgent imposition of state of emergency in Benue, because there is a clear incapacity of the governor there to act decisively to stem the killings and tackle the problem.” Justifying his call, Wike said: “When Rivers had security challenges, Ortom was among All Progressives Congress (APC) governors, who plotted for the declaration of state of emergency in the state. “When the problem of insecurity started here in Rivers, instead of joining hands to proffer solutions, they politicised it. Unless all those at the forefront of the plot against the state repent, this insecurity will visit them one after another.” Replying Wike last week, Governor Ortom said his Rivers counterpart should ask for a state of emergency in his state first, before talking about Benue. Ortom, in an interview with newsmen, said: “If Wike wants state of emergency, he should first ask for it in Rivers. Leaders should be careful what they say. “I’m not his rival. His statements are unfortunate, but I will not join issues with him. I leave Wike to his conscience.” Ortom said he never had any issues with Wike and recalled that the first time the Rivers governor took a swipe at him was when he was nominated by his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), to go for campaign in Rivers. Governor Ortom, who enjoined his Rivers counterpart not to rejoice at his present predicament, said: “I pray God will help Wike succeed as a leader. I leave him to his conscience.” http://sunnewsonline.com/paris-club-refund-wike-asks-efcc-to-probe-benue-gov/ |
Babysheart:you are as brainless as your DP depicts!! |
Ortom is the most incompetent governor in Nigeria right now. Salaries are not being paid, infrastructure is at a low, no clear policy direction and worst of all, the state of security in Benue is at best a joke. Wike is right on this one!!! |

Mr. Stephen Nyitse who sat On The Throne of the Tor Tiv minutes before Coronation has been banished in Tiv land by The Tiv Traditional Council,for butchery of the consecrated Tor Tiv Stool. Ter Kwande, HRH Chief Ambrose Pinne Iyortyer who announced the banishment on behalf of the Tiv Traditional Council said the punishment is with immediate effect. And that Mr. Stephen Nyitse shall under no circumstances step his foot on any part of Tiv land any where in the world. In the statement, the TTC prohibited all sons and daughters of Tiv race to offering any form of assistance to the banished former son of Tiv, Mr. Stephen Nyitse. The Tiv Traditional Council, TTC, in the statement has, in a strong incontrovertible terms, condemned the behavior and asked the Tiv race to rise up in condemnation of such act and as well desist from all other forms of vices to make Tiv nation great again. It will be recalled that one young man, Stephen Nyitse, from Ushongo Local Government Area of Benue State, caused a stir that sent shivers into thconfidently dignitaries at JS Tarka Stadium,Gboko, Benue State, the venue of the coronation of Tor Tiv V in Gboko yesterday. He walked confidently and briskly, and sat on the throne of the yet to be coronated Tor Tiv, Prof James Ayatse. He was able to beat the tight security at the venue and around the revered throne and gained access to it. The strange behavior of the impostor aroused stir and apprehension among guests as security personnel immediately picked him for interrogation. As this was going on, Pentecostal fellowship of Nigeria, PFN, president in Benue, Bishop Mike Angou, led other men of God to anoint and rededicate the seat. Stephen Nyitse was whisked off for interrogation to ascertain his mental state and whether his action had any sinister motive. But after the coronation, TTC, went into an emergency session over the matter and unanimously agree on banishment as punitive measure act and deterrent. http://www.lasgidionline.com.ng/2017/03/man-banished-from-tiv-land-for-sitting.html?m=1 Lalasticlala, ishilove |
ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast — A U.S. appeals court has upheld a ruling against a Nigerian senator who faces drug charges related to the hit TV show “Orange is the New Black.” Chicago prosecutors accuse Buruji Kashamu of heading a heroin trafficking ring in the 1990s. Kashamu, elected in 2015 from Ogun state, argues that prosecutors want his dead brother instead. In an April 2015 filing, Kashamu asked a district court to prevent his “abduction abroad by U.S. authorities.” The court dismissed the complaint, and the U.S. Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the ruling Monday. It said U.S. agents’ attempt to arrest Kashamu in coordination with local authorities would not constitute “an attempted abduction.” A dozen people long ago pleaded guilty in the case, including Piper Kerman, whose memoir was adapted for the Netflix show.
