bilms: No wonder Nans president became fg spokeman on ASUU strike
And how much do they pay the other students all over the country that opposed ASUU and their nonsensical strike action? Let me guess, your presidents "close ally" refused to tell you abi? And I'm sure you met your presidents "close ally" while you were on that economy class train trip from Lagos to Kano not so?
PoliticsRe: Anioma Agenda 2015 by wesley80(m): 9:07am On Nov 21, 2013
Pharoh: The bolded part indicates that they only want a puppet that they can control and this does not really sound right in my opinion. This will never lead to development as this person will still be subject to the cabals that put him there. I think it is best we have our own separate state as there is something really negative behind this ethnic politics being played by the so called core deltans, is this about oil or what exactly?.
I honestly do not see how having our own state would solve the problem besides localizing the problems that had hitherto been shared by the entire state. If an Anioma state is created, we'll have same class of incompetent politicians at the helm and the problems will continue.
It is no secret that serving governors always want to hand power to their most trusted loyalists for obvious reasons (you can call them puppets if you please) but the situation in Delta state is unique as it will be the first time a person from the North is to be considered for governor in a state they are considered to be "illegitimate" Deltans by some. The onus is on Uduaghan to select a most acceptable candidate that would appeal the most to the sensitivities of all power blocs to further the Anioma governoship agenda and uphold the PDP rotation policy. That to me isnt necessarily installing a puppet but picking a compromise candidate that can win votes in the event that other parties play the ethnic card by fielding say an Ijaw candidate like Orubebe is already being touted.

lincolnj88: I am proudly kwale nigga frm ndokwa west.... our next governor must b gabriel or obielum....
Obielum is with Ogboru and the DPP and will continue to lose ala Buhari. As for your Gabriel, I've never heard of him and that speaks volumes. Every honest analyst knows Delta state is still firmly in the hands of the PDP. I dont expect any change come 2015.
PoliticsRe: Anioma Agenda 2015 by wesley80(m): 7:52am On Nov 21, 2013
Afam4eva: I think PDP will most likely present an Anioma candidate in Ifeanyi Okowa. But i think what Anioma needs is a state.
PDP most probaly will, but i'm not sure it'll be Okowa. Ochei seems to have the momentum at the moment and has been hosting lavish political gatherings. However, there's a dark horse in the PDP race that seems highly favoured - Omordi George Ugbomah. The othes two candidates are from Agbor and Onicha Olona respectively, both considered core Delta North while George Ugbomah a three time commissioner who served both under Ibori and his nephew is an Ndokwa from Aboh and rumoured to be favoured by the powers that be for his loyalty unlike the others. The issue of "acceptability" also seems to favour George as the rest of the state seems to be unofficially averse to having a core Delta Northerner as governor and may be more favourably disposed to someone of the more familiar Ukwuani and oil producing area extraction.

APC the party of hypocrites and Oshiomhole the pretentious saint rigging as usual. After coming to power with the 'One man one vote' mantra, Tinubu seems to have infected Osho with a lethal dose of the rigging virus. See Criminals on suit. Disgraceful!

PoliticsRe: Col. Ben Gbulie, One Of The 1966 Coupists Speaks On The Coup And Awo by wesley80(m):
KIRIJI: Even brigadier samuel ademulegun's pregnant wife was shot by these blood sucking ibo coupists
Nzeogwu's coup was poorly planned period. I expect Gbulie to admit this and accept the consequence of their coup and the resultant civil war as a direct result of their poorly planned coup. Let me cite one example by quoting from Gbulie's own book Nigeria's Five Majors. The below account is written in pages 57 and 58 of the book under the chapter Plot, Planning and Prosecution.


[b] "There arose, however, a minor disagreement as regards the fate of those against whom the operation was specifically directed - and against whom the plotters had previously spent many a sleepless night. One group of officers deemed, for instance, it was necessary, indeed mandatory, to gun everybody down so as not to jeopardize in any way their chances of success; they also firmly believed that no success was sure unless it is complete. The other group of officers, however, with true Christian charity in their hearts, argued strongly in favour of a bloodless coup to be effected, perhaps, by taking their targets hostage. This latter school of thought would not mind, of course, having their captives beaten to within an inch of their lives, but they would not consent to their being executed. It was purely a matter of conscience, they maintained. In other words, they would never sucscribe to anything like having murder committed on their conscience.
More and more reasons were adduced on both sides for and against a bloody coup, some of which were both sound and plausible. Opinions were almost evenly divided. Finally, in order not to waste any more time rationalizing and splitting hairs, the coup plotters decided to let everone exercise his discretion in handling the matter. Everyone could do what he thought expedient, particularly in the event of unforseen circumstances."
[/b]

What manner of coup plotters leaves an important decision like life or death of major political actors with near cult followership at the discretion of individual officers? I believe this was Nzeogwu's basic flaw that set the country on the path of total chaos. You either kill them all or you spare them all, Nigeria was just too delicate to leave such dicisions at the discretion of individual coup plotters. People like Ben Gbulie should own up to their mistakes before they allowed to pollute peoples minds with their accounts.
PoliticsRe: Government Convoy Causes Accident In Lagos, 2 killed, Many Injured by wesley80(m): 10:05am On Nov 14, 2013
berem: Coincidentally, I also live on the same axis with you. Several times I have seen Fashola's convoy, there are no sirens blaring instead you see flashing of lights from the cars and they don't move on top speed. I have also seen a serving senator from Lagos on Lagos-Ibadan expressway in a traffic jam near mowe and he didn't disturb anyone with sirens.
Fair enough. So lets agree it was the other "Progressive" across the border abi? Oya who has seen Ajimobi / Amosun moving? Time for someone to earn his pay!

berem: A strong feeling of identity with and
loyalty to one's tribe or group.
That's what Google told you right? Unfortunately, Google does not understand the peculiarity of Nigeria so here are some better definitions.

Tribalism is when a 'National leader says this; 'We must ruthlessly prevent power change. We must use the minorities in the North as willing tools and the South as conquered territories and never allow them to rule over us or have control over their future. - Ahmadu Bello'

Tribalism is Awo breaking up the NCNC to empower the SW region even though in the long run he knew Nigeria as a nation would be worse off - it was expedient, even though it robbed the country the opportunity of having her foremost nationalist and two most capable leaders preside over the country.

Tribalism is a Presidential candidate touring the entire North and SW during his presidential campaigns but not bothering to set foot in the SE, It is refusal to condemn and try to stop the butchering of young corp members simply because they are from other tribes of the country - Your Mentor Buhari.

Tribalism is Bola Tinubu the 21st Century Awoist.

Now do you know what Tribalism means in Nigeria?

berem: Until you prove to me that no nigerian is a tribalist including you,then we having nothing else to argue about. grin
what's your definition of a tribalist?
PoliticsRe: Why The South East, Must ShunThe APC For Now! by wesley80(m): 3:53pm On Nov 13, 2013
berem: There's still nothing to prove that APC is a regional party and PDP is not. Calling names of Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello doesn't prove anything. Accusing Buhari and Tinubu of being tribalist still doesn't make APC a regional party. You are also a tribalist and you try to protect your ethnic group when the need arises. So what are you yapping?
Am I a supposed "national" party leader canvassing for votes from other ethnicities? If you think Tinubu and Buhari arent tribalists then you're more ignorant than i thought
PoliticsRe: Why The South East, Must ShunThe APC For Now! by wesley80(m): 3:33pm On Nov 13, 2013
berem: and PDP is what? A one nigeria party that cares about you and I?
At least its a lesser devil and doesnt pride itself in regionalism. The regional politics of Awo and Ahmadu Bello got Nigeria where it is today and the two sponsors of the APC are bent on following the footsteps of their mentor and recreating Nigerias nightmare allover again and if I can not stop it, the least I'll do is to speak out against it.
PoliticsRe: Why The South East, Must ShunThe APC For Now! by wesley80(m): 3:11pm On Nov 13, 2013
berem: APGA which was supposed to be a regional party has been destroyed by Obi and his cohorts. I lost my respect for APGA since after the death of Ojukwu. It will be very shameful that after the election in Anambra, APGA will be finally buried just like PPA.

This is the time to forget about regionalism and join APC.
Southeast states will do much better with APC as its political party than PDP or even APGA, that is if it will still exist.
You mean you couldn't see the irony in your own words? Duh! The APC is a party of hardcore and unrepentant regionalists seeking to further their own ends. No matter what they bring, Anambra would be regarded as "captured" territory!

ilugunboy: Yes to Tony Nwoye and Ifeanyi Ubah.

I wonder if you people actually think PDP under GEJ have your interest at heart....if they can unceremoniously dropped the brightest candidates in the person of Soludo and the other guy from US for a common political thug like Nwoye and a debt-ridden Ubah, then its speaks volume of the kind of people you wish to put your political leadership on.
Was Soludo dropped or he left voluntarily to seek greener pastures in APGA? Stop peddling petty lies.

The question the Anambra people would be answering is Who's legacy they want to embrace; Awolowo the sectionalist's (ACN), the nationalist ZIK's (PDP) or the revolutionary Ojukwu's (APGA). I believe its as simple as that. Nde Anambra, the ball is in your court.

^ It's actually a disgrace. The belated remorse shown is obviously due to the high profile casualty they now realise they caused, Imagine what the lot of an ordinary faceless citizen would have been. I'm really thankful Dr Monye survived the crash, it would've been a personal loss. I wish the injured speedy recovery, kinda sad no mention was made of the bus driver, he's a human being isnt he?
