This failed man is repeating the same mistake of 1984, using same policies that bankrupted our economy.

Ogbeni...see on of the reasons....

“But when the crunch came, his allegiance to Nigeria disappeared. In the election of the (Organization of African Unity) OAU Secretary-General in 1985, Buhari voted against Nigeria and for Niger instead. He secured the election of Ide Oumarou, a Fulani man from Niger; as opposed to an Igbo man (Peter Onu, Acting Secretary-General OAU 1983 – 1985) from Nigeria. By so doing, Buhari became the first and only Head of State in the history of modern international relations to vote against his country in favour of his tribe.”

PoliticsRe: Gov Ikpeazu Swears-in Newly Elected Chairmen Of 17 LGAs In The State(pics) by warrah(m): 5:23pm On Dec 28, 2016
I also stand to intimate you that there was no local Government Election in Abia State. The Governor is not a man of his words as he could not stand by a free and fair election as he promised. Rather he deployed his party members as Absiec and withdrew the result sheet to Government house Umuahia where he sent an already written result to BCA for announcement. He announced his new transition committee members. So there was no election in Abia State.


This is the fact as stated by Afam Ikonne on his FB page.

Okezie is treading the path of Anarchy

Allow LG autonomy for the development of Abia state.


NB. Ikonne Afam vied for the seat of LG chairman of Aba North, so he has the facts as it happened on the election day
EducationRe: 25 Interesting Words Derived From The Names Of People Throughout History by warrah(m): 7:30am On Dec 23, 2016
musicwriter:
Another junk education thread.........

This is one of the reason knowledge acquisition in English language is such a disaster to Africa.

Any culture in the world can coin, and indeed do coin such words. Popular one I can readily remember is "ọsọ Abiola" which was coined by Igbos running out of Lagos during the annulled June 12th 1993 presidential election won by Moshood Abiola. Its used to describe the "period" within the last days of former head of state, IBB- the exact time Lagos was deserted.

ỌSỌ in Igbo could mean RUN, RUNNING, RAN (depending on the context) and of course, everybody know Abiola and can easily translate "ọsọ Abiola" to your various native languages.

The words listed on this thread that they want you to know should only make sense to those cultures that coined them, not you as an African. Its not up to us to adopt their grammar structure, cause we're not English people!.

If you check the Binis, Efiks, Hausas, Nupes, Fulanis, Ijaws, Ibibios, e.t.c who ran from Lagos during "ọsọ Abiola", you'll discover they also formed similar words to describe that period. Because, language by nature does that for all cultures!. Its just that we still consider our languages inferior just as the British taught us, and therefore, don't consider our own creation as knowledge since we still think knowledge is only knowledge when white man create it.

Noam Chomsky (the world's best living linguist) said that every language in the world possess the same natural capability to coin words in similar way!!.

As a matter of fact, there's this Yoruba man called Alajo Shomolu who lived in the mid 1900's and was said to be a thrift collector, and through him so many words entered into the Yoruba lexicon. Yet, the name of this man doesn't appear any where in textbooks in Yorubaland. Such a great man of historical importance reduced to mythology because of our stupidity!. And we're here studying European Draco; when we have people of same historical importance right here in our own cultures?

At the peak of his career, Alajo Shomolu was said to be so diligent at his work that adages were coined in his name. The sayings are as follows: ‘’Ori e pe bii ti alajo Somolu, to fodidi oôdun meta gbajo lai ko oruko eni kankan sile, ti ko si siwo san fenikeni.’’ (Your brain is as sharp as that of Alajo Somolu, who collected thrift for three years and paid back all his customers without writing down a single name and without making a single mistake with the payment).

There is also another one that goes thus:
“Ori e pe bii Alajo Somolu, to ta moto, to fi ra keke”. (You are so intelligent like Alajo Somolu, who sold his car to buy a bicycle).

Baba Alajo Shomolu was discused on this thread https://www.nairaland.com/3331888/alajo-somolu-nigerias-most-famous/

As you can see, our native languages also have the same grammar and syntax structures to coin words, and we do indeed coin such words. Its just that we continue to vilify our native languages in favor of English.

Again, the same things we fool ourselves studying in English and French in Africa, we do have them as well in our various native languages and cultures across Africa.

Africans, come to your senses. Start asking questions like; what is education? What is knowledge? Is it right to acquire knowledge in foreign language instead of using your own language?. The information on this thread is not necessary knowledge, it is indoctrination!. English language is not better than our native African languages!.
What you said is very correct. Sometimes I wonder if Africa will ever get it right.

I am an avid reader of your blog, whenever I browse the net and see websites written in Russian, Chinese or Arabic languages, I remember your piece about looking for an Igbo keyboard and wonder when we will get to see a whole website in our own native indigenous language.

Please with all due respect, This thread is not for political noise, Take Note. No body is singing praises here, I created this topic as it affects me personally. I expressed my happiness, And also stated how Railway area of Aba/Owerri messes up my day & a whole lot of other people. If you had mentioned about the work being slow kind of, it would have been understandable to some extent.But for you to say the slab & rods used are below standard,you are an established liar.can you please show us such slab/rod in pictures, no imported pictures. And also, I m from south south, not in anyway related to anybody or govt of Abia state.Thanks
I hate doing this, but to prove you wrong, I will get a picture of the slabs that has broken in front of Tonimas filling station, also in front of Abia hotel.

my office is around that area, so I know what am talking about, passing on foot and driving through are two different things......

Sometimes i wonder if you people that is commenting is really residing in Aba. For me Ikpeazu is a failure. Why showing us pix of less than 1km road that he just repaired. Just from abia poly to rail way. It is even one lane. The man is a failure. He started this project from june last year and yet he had not even completed the construction of drainages talk of the road . What we are even talking here is just from osisioma junction to park yet someone is commending this man. I pity your generations . Even though that T.A orji is a failure but if you have been to umuahia mostly NIMC side cbn side, you will know that T.A tried for his people.
Tell your governor to stop this media propaganda and start working . If he cannot rebuild aba , i doupt if anyone can do it in future . He is very very slow . Even the allocation that he generates from aba is enough to rebuild aba to a world class city. Afterall , mbakwe came from imo state and built the city within a short time . There are only three major entrances to aba which PH road and aba owerri road is among . If he wants to build aba , he should start from these three entrances . For now , no commendation for him as he is too slow in working .
Thank you so much my brother. That stretch of road has been under construction since last year. If you venture near the drainages, you will notice they have started breaking up.

I seriously pity anyone that might fall inside cos the thickness of the slab on that drainage is so tiny, not even up to 3inches, the rod used is nothing to write home about. Anybody praising IKPEAZU for this shabby road is a mediocre.

Mediocres are already singing praises while the other side of the road is still yet to be asphalt-coated, from Osisioma to Brass junction, you will notice open drainages IKPEAZU abandoned, I wonder what he is even doing.

All these wayo praise singers, does it mean you guys are blind or what.

Tufiakwa!!!!!!

Its better the Governor builds a lasting legacy than doing shabby works and expect to be praised to high heavens for a work he is doing with tax payers money.

PoliticsRe: 6 Takeaways From Buhari's Speech During 2017 Budget Presentation by warrah(m): 7:41pm On Dec 14, 2016
Sometimes I just wonder the type of leaders we have in this country Nigeria.

What we seriously need in this country is an industrial revolution, a massive aggressive pursuit towards power sufficiency and not all these increasing oil production, providing more land for farming. Suffice to say, food sufficiency is a noble cause but at the same time we should be working towards being an industrial nation, this will in turn curb Nigeria of being a dumping ground for substandard products

If I may ask, whatever happened to the money allocated for social intervention in the 2016 budget, I mean the 5k, maybe it was paid secretly to the Zombies.

I wish for Buhari to succeed because if he fails, the reverberation will be felt down to our 4th generation.
