Trump had a stopover at the People’s Convention" of Turning Point Action in Michigan

The US Presidential Election holds on November 05, 2024

Trump is a mad man. He is an irredeemable racist

nighthawk1:
Osimen is a shoe lace in comparison to Finidi George.

I blame the FA for not sticking with the coach.
If Finidi were white, the FA would have acted differently

Finidi was a great player but an inferior coach or football manager.

The FA should have been objective and reasonable enough to get a good coach among all those who applied for cute job.

But selfish and sinister interests influenced all the chairman and board members of NFF to choose Finidi

Fineman2:
Osimhen should apologize to this legend, I don't know why people from that side are defending him

Finidi started it. What did he mean by stating that he can't be begging Osihmen to play for Nigeria.

He got what he asked from Osihmen

malali:
“The old Eastern Region and the old Western Region, of which I belonged to, were equal competitors and partners before and during the First and Second Republic but today, you have appointed 10 Yorubas as Ministers from the South-West and only five Ministers from the South-East and you even failed to give them the ministerial appointment due to their region that would have made it six Ministers.

“There is no justification for this grave omission, and no effort has been made to correct it. "

Mr Clark do you know what is democracy ? Tinubu won an election, He has the right to appointments to enhance a successful administration. A lot of people you are advocating for do not even want this advocacy ? They are online insulting the president everyday. If i stand outside your house and insult you everyday and also throw stones at your car. Will you hire me to work as your driver ? Lets make sense out of our utterances,“He who comes into equity must come with clean hands.”


“I repeat again, the immediate restructuring of Nigeria must be carried out if this country is to remain one, and I appeal to Mr. President to take immediate action to implement the historic 2014 National Conference Report, which submitted 600 recommendations to the Presidency on how to restructure Nigeria in every aspect of our lives,” he said.

Once again Mr Clark, you only carry one vote, just like me. You are not more important than any other voter in Nigeria. If you are concerned about national issues, direct them to your representatives, HoR and senate accordingly. Grandstanding media directives can be interpreted as having delusional undertone, telling Nigerians restructuring "must" be carried out. We have a legislative arm of government representing everybody according, these are deemed as proper channels of airing grievances. Please in the future resist the temptation to must to requests. You are not in a position to say we must do anything.

When I read Mr Edwin Clark's position, I could not help but conclude that he is seeking attention and being frivolous or clever.

When Ebele Jonathan was president of Nigeria, I remember that Clark was one of his close allies or. Advisers. Did Clark advice Jonathan to share ministerial appointments in the order he is proposing to the President Tinubu?

Whatever Jonathan did that was questionable was supported, with threats, by Clark and a host of others.

Today, Clark is trying to use double psychology and whip up sentiments against the President and fan the distrust and animosity against the Yorubas by the Igbos.

We are not surprised, we see your strategy and plan. Yet again, you failed to deceive us.

IfnobeGod20:
You lacked understanding and you should have stood down and reflect before you vomit this your comment. The constitution not respected, how would it unite us? That's why he said it is only justice and equity that can unite us. Learn how to reflect and stop disgracing the little education given to you by your parents.

Oga wey dey reflect. Please tell us what you define as constitution.

Let's start with your understanding of constitution and see how educated and informed you are.

The constitution in itself is about justice, equity and fairness. Every law in Nigeria is subject to the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, in case of any conflicting position.

The constitution is the paramount law and justice document in Nigeria. Hence, that is what defines Nigeria and bound us together.

Ode! Since you no dry informed, let us help you a little, if you would accept the help otherwise, move on with your flawed ideologies and pained and damaged personality.

GUNITGuy:
They are at Liberty to belong to any Region through referendum but the confab reports of 2014 is a good template already.....The Itshekiri leaders have already been able to find a place were they know their voices would be heard .....They have never hidden their desire to be joined with the West as it was before ....The Ijaws are having land dispute everywhere but that has been settled in Court so boundary dispute her less this days as compared to what we have in the past in Delta state

Confab report is not a law or bill. It is also not perfect.

We are talking about a bill on regional government not Confab.

You shouldn't belong to a region that is far away from you. It keeps you isolated and vulnerable

Raf4:
Bring out your known border between Ondo and Delta states let's see.

Please educate me about the border between Ondo and Delta. You are the one trying to prove it not me.

Ensure to indicate the land border, if any, but if you tell me it is sea border, then your argument has been punctured.

I am waiting, my dear friend

Fashypearl:
What can you do about it ?

I can only laugh at your ridiculous, poorly trained and empty self.

I have got no time to lose on you.

Raf4:
Were they not part of Western Region before?
Are they not sharing borderline with Ondo state?
Though not compulsory, but it is possible.

Oga, you have an Android or IOS device, google and read about the Itsekiris.

They don't share borderline with Ondo state. It will be disastrous for itsekiris to remain in Delta yet be under Southwestern region when the Delta, Edo, Baylesa and their neighbors will be under a different region.

GUNITGuy:
The Itshekiri are located along the Coastal boarders from Delta to Edo to Ondo to Lagos .....
It's the best proposal so far ....Let people of common ancestry Rule themselves into Regions with full control while the Centre controls things like military and immigration ...Let me let you know something it's going to ignite healthy competition as it was in the past .....Once your region is not advancing you would be held responsible for it

Stop arguing blindly, have you ever been to Delta State. I can bet that you have never been there. Do you know that the stool of "Olu of Warri" is traditionally that of itsekiris. Do you know the land mass occupied by itsekiris in Delta. The riverine and coastal areas of Delta is predominantly occupied by Ijaws.

See I like intelligent contributions, google is your friend; you can research about itsekiris.

They migrated to Delta. The itsekiris will be doing themselves a disservice if they choose to remain in Delta and want to be under Southwest region. It will be a disaster for them.

Your points about regional system of government are well taken and understood in areas of healthy competition and others but get your facts right.

It has a lot of disadvantages, to group the itsekiris under southwestern region, for the itsekiris and even the southwestern regional government

GUNITGuy:
The Itshekiri leaders have already assent to be joined with the West due to their mistrust of Ijaws ....This is contained in the 2014 confab reports as Well as the Okun people of Kogi and kwara state.....
It's the minority of the Old eastern region that are jittery of going back to Enugu as Capital ...

If so, will the Itsekiris leave Delta to be relocated to the South Western region?

Do they want to remain in Delta yet be classified as Southwest Region?

That proposal is not logical and devoid of geographical understanding

@MobilePunch

Constitution can unite a nation. In fact, that is what bound us together

Dreambeat:
I did not qualify the word Majority. I am sure you did not read where I wrote Majority in Nigeria. I was writing about watering down Igbo majority in the SE/SS region which was the context under which I made the comment
I never mentioned Nigeria

Okay

franudi:
Yorubas are stupid for supporting that the south Easterners be separated from their people while Yorubas be united together. This is not that time Gowon did those nonsense division he did.

Does the man (Fapohunda) who originated the bill speak for Yorubas? How many Yorubas support that the south Easterners be separated from their people?

You see how stupid and ridiculous you are? Your thought process is so flawed that I wonder who trained you and what level of training and exposure that you have

Dreambeat:
So Igbo no be major ethnic group for Nigeria?

Now you are talking sense.

The Igbo tribe is a major tribe in Nigeria, I agree with you.

But I don't agree that the Igbo tribe is the majority tribe.

English language my dear friend. The majority tribe in Nigeria is Hausa.

Dreambeat:
Is there going to be a referendum to determine which region they prefer, of course like you wrote bearing in mind the geographical location of the region they want to belong which has to be in close proximity to theirs

I believe every state has representatives in the National Assembly. The bill will be passed to the National Assembly and perhaps the state house of assemblies for deliberation.

Everyone who wish to make an input on it can join the discourse at the assemblies.

pandax:
Yoruba is proposing to annex their kith and kin in Kwara and Kogi + Akoko Edo in Edo and itshekri in Delta; but proposing for Anioma to join Midwest and Ohaji/Egbema in so called Southern IMO to join Southern region.

Please, why jump Rivers to merge Bayelsa with AkwaCross?

It is either Fapohunda is mischievous or do not understand the make up/geography of SS/SE and thus his proposed Southern Region,Midwest and South East regions. 1886 Berlin Conference at play!

The only issue I have with the proposal is the request to join Itsekiri in Delta to South West region.

I think it is not feasible or necessary especially die to geographical location.

I think the proposal that Yoruba speaking people of Edo,Kogi and Kwara to join the South Western region is in order however subject to the decision of the people of those Yoruba speaking areas to decide.

Dreambeat:
I think he is being mischievous, same old trick to water down Igbo unity and majority

Who dash igbo majority?

Fashypearl:
I saw that too. Very stupid set of people.

How can you call an entire tribe - stupid. You have bad manners and training

Okechinwadike:
that's a good one from tinubu, though Yorubas are like a chameleon, neither red nor black.

That is your opinion

tarboshi:
"....incorporating the Yoruba-speaking people in Kogi and the Igbomina people in Kwara State. Additional options would be the Itsekiri people of Delta State and Akoko-Edo people of Edo State to make their respective choices.” Is it supposed to be a tribal region or a geographical region?

A mix of both.

Osanoghodua1:
The division is trouble making. Joining anyhow is very funny. You want to take other region and join to another region so they can become a sub human. Why not South West, South East, Muddle belt, South South, North East, North West?

That is your opinion, however you can participate in the debate when it gets to the house of assemblies

Dreambeat:
The issue here will be disagreement over which region the individual states or people would prefer to belong. Is there going to be a referendum to determine this? You are giving option of Yoruba speaking people of Kogi and Edo to join the South western region without giving the same option for Igbo speaking part of Edo, Delta, Kogi,Rivers, cross river, to join South Eastern region.

It is better to get the regions first, then the people in all those areas can decide which regions they want to follow however, they must keep in view the geographical location of their places in relation to the region they prefer.

XXXsearch:
Make the drug man do this one, then gradually naija go divide, everybody go bear him papa name

You mean that all that you can see is division of the country after reading the article?

Lomprico2:
How old are you?

Why are you interested in the age?

Odewaleadesoye:
Popular media personality, Linda Ikeji has urged young women to aim for financial success rather than relying on men to meet their financial needs.

She noted that being rich isn’t the “birthright” of men alone.

The mother of one explained that she would rather strive for financial freedom than depend on a man.

On her Instagram page, Ikeji wrote:

She advised women to strive to be as rich or if possible, richer than their spouses.

DAILY POST

She sounds pained and broken

yyba:
throw in the towel as how ?

Ado Bayero is done as Emir

Putindbutt:
I like emir bayero, he is a fighter. Sanusi was dethroned for insubordination but nobody has been able to point out the crime of Ado Bayero.

Did you hear yourself: you expect a subordinate king.

That was a ridiculous excuse to dethrone a king.

A law was passed to repeal the law that broke Kano emirates into 5. The most recent law reinstated the Kano emirates back to one. Hence the tenure of Bayero and other Emirs are ended.

That is the reason Ado Bayero can no longer be emir

Gistmedia10:
A distraught man has taken to social media to share his shocking story of heartbreak, claiming his fiancée of several years has left him just weeks before their wedding to be with a foreigner. The wedding was reportedly set to take place on June 29th.

The man expressed his devastation and disbelief at the sudden turn of fate. "Our wedding was set on June 29th, and she just left me for a white man," he said in a heart-wrenching post.

The sudden and shocking betrayal has sparked a mix of emotions on social media, with many sympathizing with the jilted groom's pain.

He just dodged a bullet

Otamendi99:
Y he go carry her along. She dy commitee on FCT or related to FCT. Dat committee dem don come out say wike sideline dem?. U can see dem present in almost all commissioning. Let her focus on women affairs committee she was given.

That woman, Ireti Kingibe, has an overrated impression about herself, her status and her office.

She should come off her high horse and dig into the work or shut up and stay neutral collecting her remuneration and loot.

SoNature:
That woman is right. Wike is sending bills to the senate through Tinubu and bypassing the only senator that represents the FCT. If Tinubu was a reasonable person, he would tell Wike to go and work with her. Wike has publicly said that he cannot work with the woman. Imagine an appointed government official saying he cannot work with the highest elected government official in his territory.


In an ideal circumstance, Kingibe is supposed to present to her own house any bill that concerns her district, not Tinubu. That should be when she and Wike have met to deliberate on it. Afterwards, she will tell Wike areas that need to be adjusted because she's elected while Wike is just an appointee; the people know her more than Wike and she understands the plights of the people more than Wike.

Should Wike be sending bills through her? Is she the president who appointed Wike?

What we need is an effective and active FCT Ministry and minister, that is what it seems we are getting despite the corruption associated with governance in Nigeria.

One senator who set out on a war part with an egoistic and difficult minister can't drag us into her dilemma and frustration. She had every opportunity to work amicably and cordially with Wike but she chose the war part. Who cares if Wike ignores her and focuses on his job to develop the FCT?

She started the war with Wike and she is receiving the heat wotowoto

FuckYeyeMods:
Aminu Ado is perfect gentleman. I once recall when he stop with all his entourage to acknowledge the greetings of some school pupil which my son is one of them when lined up by their proprietoress during a Sallah durbar that coincided with when school have resumed.
Left to him, he will leave and never throw any tantrums but he was instructed to resist and he have the backings of who is who in Kano.

That is not true, I don't think he is a perfect gentleman. I think he is a desperado in respect of the throne.

There is no harm or shame in leaving especially when you have been dethroned by law. If the power brokers want him back, they can fight to reinstate him.
