francizy: You should also ask yourself these questions:
Has there ever been a time after the civil war that a truck load of dead Yoruba people were moved from SE to SW for burial?
Have we not accommodated the Yorubas in our lands, although they aren't that large compared to Igbos in SW?
Haven't you heard of cases were a truck load of dead bodies were brought into the SW from the north?
Have we caused you trouble as our host? Did we rise up in arms against you, like some tribe(s) did in Jos? Have we ever come out en masse to murder/maim the Yorubas in Lagos?
Has the Igbos not paid their dues? Did we disrupt any Yoruba businesses or damaged any Yoruba properties?
If you've asked and answered all these questions, then you can ask yourself this one too..
Then why the hate speech? Boss, plz quit calling anybody host. Nobody is hosting anybody here... A perusal of our constitution will confirm this...Everybody and everyone is free to live anywhere in this geographical compound called Nigeria, so far you are law abiding...No host syndrome here...It is this mentality of "we are your hosts" that keeps feeding their ego...I am Nigerian and I live in Nigeria... shikena.... Maybe Obama that most of them ignorantly cite here should come out every morning and worship the whites for not only allowing him American citizenship but also, making him their president... |

francizy: You people speak as if Igbos are forcefully stealing your land and political rights from you. Even when Igbos contest and loose in Lagos, do we go out en masse to cause trouble and kill? No.
Why does everyone turn a blind eye to the troublesome Fulani but label Igbos as the devil in Nigeria? I can recall vividly how peaceful Jos and Plateau state was before some tribes lost elections in that town and started killing their host. What did Nigerians do or say about that? Nothing, why? Because they are born to rule and cannot be challenged by the Yorubas, Igbos and other tribes.
In real sense and from history, the the true owners of Kaduna are the southern Kaduna tribes who are predominantly Christians, but they've been merged with people from Katsina and have had their numbers equal to or a bit smaller than the Northern Kaduna. Since 1999, they've only had one Southern Kaduna ruler who was made governor by the actions of the president in using Sambo as his VP.
We talk of political appointments and stuffs like that not knowing what is happening at the other side. When I schooled in ABU, a Southern Kaduna/Christian Prof won an election for the post of VC but was never made the VC due to massive protest within and outside the walls of the school. Finally, a Hausa/Fulani/Muslim Prof was appointed the VC.
But that is not the case in a Igbo land because I went to Metallurgical Training Institute at Onitsha and a Yoruba man is the Director. Mind you, that's just one establishment I went to. Imagine I was born and brought up in the South East, I would have seen various other tribes holding political/academic posts in my region without my people making a big deal out of it.
The truth will always hurt but I will spill it out, if it was the Fulani tribe that had this large population of the Igbos in a Yoruba/Lagos land and have not produced a governor yet, there would have been serious bloodshed. Take it or leave it. Bro, no need wasting your time on people like Ymodulus... they only reason through ethnic lens and are unapologetically biased folks who constitute everything wrong with the society. Read through his posts and see...What he spewed here has gotten nothing to do with the article he wants to comment on....Just tired of folks like him...Atimes, I wish this forum will have a means of examining mental capacity and age of mind of most individuals here...because some reasoning are quite ridiculous.... When you advocated for nationalism as against ethnicity... I told you how bigoted these guys are...Just check out any thread that has to do with ethnicity especially Igbo and you see them bare their fangs...Inferiority complex and low self esteem alongside lack of innovative reasoning and skills have dealt them a heavy blow....Soon, some will rush out to boast that they are politically sophisticated and informed but history proves otherwise and presents them as bigots.... |

rodbel: This will be my last response to you.
I never made any excuse for my government. That said, previous government in my state made meaningful impact in terms of citizen literacy (onabanjo), agriculture (remember cocoa house) etc. Those are legacies. And they got us to where we are today.
I won't bother responding to your Aregbesola comment. The state did that in the last election. And your criticism of your govt is filled with hypocrisy. Y'all quick to shout down fashola but weak in telling your govt the truth. How has your criticism affected the state of things in Abia, Bayelsa, Delta, Enugu, Ebonyi etc. Abia and Ebonyi states are eyesores and before you ask me if I've been there. Yes I have been there.
Start the campaign of good governance in your backyard. Where are the legacies in your state? Why are you still struggling with basic amenities since 1976? Where's the cocoa house today?. Where are the cocoa farms?. What hypocrisy is in my statement about Anambra? Abia is better than most southwest states notwithstanding whatever they say about Orji... |

See as long as the electoral act and the constitution are concern, the issue of Fayose's election has been decided and closed. Nobody, I repeat nobody, not even Buhari can do anything about it. Does he even know that normal court doesn't deliberate on election matters hence they keep hoping on all the magic that will happen once buhari takes over... |

Neyoor: I used to think Barcanista is a lover of democracy until he finally disappoint me with this irrational topic he initiated. why would you allow your hatred for the opposition party to blind your sense of reasoning and still allow it to guide your actions. Why not talk about the genesis of this scenario, rather than challenging the illegality of the impeachment saga. What is the legality of 7 greater than 19? how would a sane and educated person believe 7 men could successfully impeach a Speaker of the house, or 7 people have successfully formed a quorum according to PDP dictionary.
It pains me whenever I see Nigerian youths trending the part of corrupt politicians. So, because Fayose is now a PDP governor now stop the OP from seeing what is bad in his actions. No bro, you missed it plzzz...let me correct you here... Democracy is synonymous with constitutionality. This thread is about the constitutionality of fayose impeachment move by APC lawmakers not ekiti lawmakers because on their own volition, they absconded from ekiti to Lagos upon fayose swearing in...preferring party allegiance to constitutional responsibility to ekiti state... So you may wish to ask; Why did they abandon their job? their constituency? their state? the electorates? would fayose not function as these men has ran away to probably frustrate his government  ... Anyway, our topic here is impeachment...you may wish to open a new thread to trace the history of ekiti state... |

rodbel: I'm very sure some form of government existed in those places before it was cut out for another state. Anambra is not young bro. 1991 to 2015 is quite a long time to have massive infrastructures on ground to position the state for greatness. Anambra has got a lot of potential for greatness. Get the logic bro. We should start holding our respective govts responsible. Yes, there was a form of government under old Enugu state just like Ogun existed long before becoming its own state in 1976...Can you compare a man of 1976 to that of 1991  ... If you sincerely want to hold your government accountable, you quit making excuse for them like you and many others are doing... Anambra and other southeast criticise their governors more than anyone else hence the great development you see there unlike your folks who for myopic reasons protect there's and overhype them... It is your people who defended men like aregbesola who share money here in Lagos, pay political officer holders and owe salaries of state workers while shifting all the blame to Jonathan... But at same time, he and his people are shifting blames on oil revenue via Jonathan; Anambra is increasing salary above minimum wage by 15% and paying them without qualms.... So if 1991-2015 is quite long for Anambra to get huge infrastructure on ground... what will you say about your state of Ogun of 1976-2015; should they still be complaining  ...hope you see your hypocrisy now  |

Babacele: the audio tape was deliberately n't available during the trials because ekiti was a bait for PDP. When the tape eventually came out , exposing PDP's plan to use the millitary, the ruling party was so embarrassed that it forced the nation to shift the Febuhari 14 elections by 6 weeks ,which it eventually lost.
Captain Koli is still alive and shall be back at the appropriate time to testify against state officials who undermined institutions and processes like the military and the elections in a judicial panel of enquiry into an international embarrassment called ekitigate. Then event would school you that subverting the state is a treasonable offence. I am still waiting for a verifiable link where fayose sent emissaries to Jagaban via Oba Lagos as you said here...

And to think the state is witnessing a lot of development even as the fed allocation is a paltry ±10% of states like akwa-ibom Quit hypocrisy and hatred bro... Ogun state was created in 1976 and Anambra state was created in 1991...do the mathematics of their age difference...

If I should stop using Nairaland today, I won't feel bad because I met the best of female beings here.

Bro, court isn't a beer parlour where you walk in and walk out anyhow...there are laid down rules...If you want to withdraw a case; you have to apply and the judge will even ask the defendants their stance before ruling on it...
