We have not done enough to be honest. The so-called bombing of pipelines have gone on for more than 7 years and it has achieved NOTHING other than enriching militants who are now paid monthly to shut up.

Ken Saro Wiwa attempted being vocal in a military regime hence his death. Let us revive the Wiwa spirit in this democratic dispensation. Bombing things is not working for us. It only enriches a few. We need a different strategy.

Yes we need to fight for freedom but not all fights are self destructive and violent. Let's fight the right way.

1) Did Nnamdi Kanu also right vocally in a military regime? where's he?

2)What happened to all dialogue reports in their archives? which did they implement?

3)Did Kabiru Sokoto kill any member of your family? Did Buhari supporters kill anyone close to you in their 2011 mayhem? Is any in prison today? Keep dialogue coming bro!!!

4)Many educated professionals came thanks to militancy compensation...many companies reduced speed of ecosystem rape... Federal government began some positive development...It achieved something though not enough...

fratermathy:
I agree that the current system in Nigeria is not working. Things have to change. We need true federalism and everything must shift from the center. However, the means in which we are fighting for that is my grievance.

Those pipelines do not only feed the Hausas but also our people. Anything that happens to Nigeria happens to our people, even in worse proportions because of marginalization. We need to rethink our methods. Gandhi, Martin Luther King, and other known activists, achieved their dreams without blowing up anything or fighting anyone. What has militancy achieved in Nigeria since its inception?

We can go on mass protest, boycotts, hunger strikes, block roads, etc and attract attention that will force the government to listen to us or atleast dialogue. But how many Niger Deltans will agree to do these? We'd rather cheer on economic terrorists who are fighting for their own stomachs. Very soon, compensation will be paid and the common man won't even feel it.

We need restructuring. We need federalism. We need resource control. But we should get them without recourse to terrorism. Civil disobedience was employed by Rev. Kings. Let's try that and it may work for us. Terror and sabotage are not productive. History should have taught us that.

1)How many of Such were done in past without success? Did Saro Wiwa & co bomb pipeline? where are they?

2)Have we not dialogued enough? where's implementation? where's confab report of 2014? Who's fooling who?

3)Freedom isn't given anywhere freely...If you want freedom, fight for freedom!!!

duni04:
The ones who destroyed? Those illiterate "freedom fighters" are polluting their farmlands and their waterways everyday by bombing pipelines in the name of "fighting for their rights". Who on earth sets fire to his own house with his children in it, just so he can spite his neighbour who doesn't even send him! They even attack the engineers they send in to repair the bombed pipelines. Its just pure illiteracy. I can't wait to see you people on CNN in the not distant future, begging for food aid cos that's where you're headed.

Did militants exist when Saro Wiwa and co complained of oil spillage all over ND which destroyed sources of water and farmland etc...but they were hanged to die?

Zico5:
I'm very sure those ipob youths will like this not knowing this is another step backward for them. I couldn't imagine how hatred for someone who never wish them bad will be this way. Even the one and only who sold their life and yet unborn is their hero. We all witness how he developed their entire region to new dubai and new York. I pity them, lagos is developing when all they know is to destroy their region. We shall see who will lose at the end.

Are you from lagos? Is your state lagos?

AntiWailer:
I hope it is not to beg for mama peace.

That one don use illiteracy put herself in trouble.

Why come out to claim money found in another account entirely belongs to u.

When u know the source is not clean.

If it is, it wnt be opened in some house help's name

Akuko...Same way Stella Oduah was convicted in the media using same lies and propaganda...And finally, it came to light the woman has no such personality...

Where's the millions of dollars they got from septic tank? and the ones buried in farms? or the $2.8billion they shared like people sallah ram?...The lies can NEVER stop because there folks like you to always swallow them hook line and sinker

nobilis:
Really??
The YouWin that served as an avenue for embezzling funds?

How much did you save in Nigeria's time of abundance? Because you were at the helm of her finances when her main and virtually, only, export, crude oil, was sold for the highest price ever in the history of the world.

Where is the FG's share of the ECA?

What did you people do with the economy when Nigeria was in her time of plenty?

Sometimes, I get tired replying some silly comments here...no offense

1)That you failed or had no viable idea doesn't make YOUWIN an avenue for embezzlement... People with verifiable, veritable and viable ideas were selected and given loans... Don't call or insult others because you failed or lack ideas...

2)Ask Your governor and LGA chairmen what they did with their allocations from FG...They were allocated from same fund...

3)FG share of ECA was used for such glorious and laudable projects like PRESSID, YOUWIN etc...and he built more roads than any government in our history so far... Including other projects like railway etc...

Channel your frustration rightly bro...

PassingShot:
I weep for the idiots who support these looters. They stole your yesterday, today and tomorrow, yet you could defend them and even shamelessly declare "bring back corruption" just because you no longer have free easy money!

Where did she get $31 million dollars from? Why was the money kept in other people's account if not stolen? Jonathan was a calamitous curse to Nigeria. Thank God we booted the Ineffectual Buffoon out.

http://guardian.ng/news/patience-jonathan-tells-court-frozen-account-belongs-to-her/

1)It seems when they bash Dropshot so much, you drop it and pick up Passingshot

2)Have sort for the tax clearance of these companies to ascertain if they were available?

3)Patience Jonathan according to you who left service as a permanent secretary cannot afford such amount; but your hero whose wife is a hair dresser can afford to drop 138million notwithstanding the husband borrowed 27million a month before? ...

4)Patience Jonathan is a thief because a cumulative sum of $31dollars were domiciled in 5 companies account and her personal account...but Aisha Buhari is not a thief because the Aisha in Halliburton scandal isn't her but PDP imaginary concoction...which Buhari can NEVER investigate or unravel... notwithstanding Nigeria has an outstanding $180million of that loot waiting for repatriation in USA once the looters are prosecuted...

5) Patience Jonathan is not to be defended hence we be called idiots and corruption promoters; but Buhari and Aisha are to be defended by the Solomon's & saints of this country...

6) Patience Jonathan stole "your" yesterday, today, & tomorrow but Aisha Buhari with her ostentatious cum luxurious lifestyle albeit a hair dresser refunded and restored what the "Holocaust" has stolen from you ...

7)Patience Jonathan cannot own such amount having worked as permanent secretary, served as first Lady for 16years but Aisha Buhari can afford her 138mil and luxurious living cum world travels as a hair dresser and first Lady for barely 2years...

I forgot that Jonathan declared ALL his assets OPENLY in 2007 but Buhari vehemently refused to declare his openly as promised during campaigns and has NEVER done so anytime in history..but Jonathan is a thief Not worth defending by anybody but Buhari is a man of integrity who deserves our collective support and defense with our blood ...

9) Jonathan should not be commended OPENLY by anybody for his projects being commissioned by buhari because government is a continuum but should be insulted for every buhari failure because Jonathan laid the foundation for such failure...

10) The crass nepotism of Buhari isn't corruption...rot in PTF under him is propaganda... Selective justice as head of state is corruption fighting back... bastardizing leadership snd economy isn't his fault... corruption presently in Nigeria is product of Jonathan hangover...


NOTHING can explain such reasoning as portrayed by you except DEEP SEATED HATRED cum BIGOTRY... Mizmycoli teach your friend that the burden of hatred hurts the vendor not his purported enemy...Good Morning!!!

MizMyColi:

I know you are MTN ...Y"Our" best connection!!!

bighuntenter:
. Good decision to go into a business venture. Why not consider starting a small scale gas business with the same amount of money? Gas business is becoming the in thing now. Give it a try and see what happen to your 240k in the next months.

Kindly explain more on this gas business plzzz Sir...good morning!!!

HIGHESTPOPORI:
I already have my Pvc,voting in S and T, opposite Uselu Market,Egor Local Govt, Its PDP and POI all d way!

Why can't you guys find a way to reach to Pastor on developments in this LGA... because disenfranchising folks in his stronghold is also a rigging strategy...So that he escalate the issue using every possible medium... including Twitter, Television stations etc... That way INEC would be forced abi blackmailed into doing the right thing...Same was done in lagos to disenfranchise folks who were against APC...OPEN your EYEs...

CHANGE BEGINS WITH BUHARI & UNA...

1)Stop lying...

2) Take Responsibility...you were part of Nigeria corrupt & unenviable past(Governor, Minister, Head of PTF, Head of State)...

3) Reshuffle cabinet...get technocrats...

4)Stop Nepotism & Selective Justice...

5)Confront Fulani herdsmen notwithstanding you are there grand patron....

btw...your remuneration is issue of legislation and can't be cut or stopped without legislation...so when did NASS deliberate on such? And so it is not only PDP faithfuls that are complaining again

Ymodulus:
Sorry did you mean nearby or neahyo? am confused on that. please clarify

Is the latter bro...he's a Nairalander... kindly help him plz

MizMyColi:
Ymodulus might have an idea o Not so sure though

Ymodulus kindly help neahyo if you can or link him to who can plz...thanks

neahyo:

See money, in this current nigeria situation.
We can actually help you start a snail farm with some of that money. Lol!

Plz let's have a chat away from public glare ... thanks

Twaci:
Oh I did...

I think you should too.

Is he trying to say this was what he had expected of his exwife? Was that why they had issues?

I am not a feminist but I know darn right when something lacks reasoning. And this does....

Maybe a closet feminist you are...btw Aside biblical emphasis on marriage and marital life of individuals...We are Africans who have culture and tradition...Which I noticed is somewhat in tandem with the biblical injunctions about marriage... Unfortunately, divorce rate has INCREASED simply because women revolt against this biblical principles and their African cultural setting...

Most of you pick the flamboyance and exhibitionists lifestyle on the internet...and apply same to destroy a supposedly happy home...only to turnaround and play victim card...

Your comment on this thread proves you are already picking up such qualities either consciously or unconsciously...##Watch It Because We Are Africans with culture & tradition coupled with biblical teachings##...Good day!!!

anonimi:
Thanks, bro.
I am simply convinced and trying to reflect that the white man is individually not more intelligent hence not better than we are also individually.
Making a few SIMPLE changes among ourselves (citizens/followers & leaders) will make our society much better than it currently is and as competitive as it once was compared to the oyinbos and koras.
We CAN get there if we make the needed adjustments and sacrifice.

Unfortunately Nigeria isn't ready to take off or even dream about those lofty heights...Why?

1)Bias: Every opinion is weighed on the scale of tribe, religion & political party...

2) Hypocrisy: We judge Jonathan by his actions cum inactions and judge Buhari by his INTENTIONS...

3) Illiteracy: We love to elevate and plug round holes with square pegs while claiming "experts" in same...What's a lawyer doing in Ministry of Works, Power etc

CHANGE BEGINS WITH BUHARI...

babooshka:
this comment tho! Smh! U just displayed your ignorance and actually quoted a bible passage to back it up. Is there actually anywhere dat doesn't benefit from aving an airport?! Also, airports and seaports r not mutually exclusive. States av both, it's called development, d shop rite 2 is development cos it's an investment in our economy.

Before you continue Sir...pick an Economics textbook from any secondary school student nearest to you and read up the topic; COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE...thanks Sir!!!

anonimi the boss...I love your style

metti47:
My brother I tire oh!! When the former Prime Minister of Britain left office (David Cameron) He used his hands to pack and carry his luggage so what is the big deal? What is unthinkable about that?

It is unthinkable because not even Buhari could do what Cameron did and no Nigerian leader including Tinubu who Osibanjo our VP carries his own bags can do it...Peter Obi just did an unthinkable cum commendable something

sodiksan:
I owe you 3 can of Origin zero, you just captured reality

thanks man... abeg chilled ones oo

delawal:
Africans and their inferiority and myopic complex. what's unthinkable in carrying ur loads. even Obama and Cameron does so. that's why we don't grow. thinking our leaders are gods instead of servants.

Oga show us your Buhari doing similar stuff...leave Obama and co

Bgorgeous:
How can u compare an ex governor to a sitting president? You no wise o

See hypocrisy Lots you celebrated same buhari man for drinking satchet peak milk here...so what Peter Obi did is not only exceptional but commendable...

Btruth:
What's the big deal in this?

Big deal is that it is uncommon to see our leaders do such here...

ephemm:
what's unthinkable about handling your own luggage?
Naija and mediocrity na 5 & 6.

The trolley those stupid guys always ask someone to pay for...

All I see is celebration of HYPOCRISY on this thread...

1)How many politicians both serving and retired have you seen carrying their own luggage in airports or anywhere else?

2)Even our VP Osibanjo was pictured carrying Tinubu's bag while Tinubu walks in as Oga ...

3)We have seen orderlies and other security agents carrying luggage even handbag of our leaders including ordinary board members...

4)We even celebrated buhari for drinking satchet peak milk claiming no more billions for feeding in presidency...

So in all, what Peter Obi did was exceptional and commendable...

honeychild:
Please o, was Dangote given an exclusive license to build refineries? Why is no other Nigerian doing so? I know we have other billionaires who can afford such a project.

Please pardon my ignorance, I am genuinely curious.

Not too sure but I think the bias in policy formulation cum implementation in Nigeria is also a factor... Example; Ibeto cement that was clamped down under Obj for Dangote cement with other brands sited in North to grow...Same Ibeto came back to business under Jonathan...and is having issues again under Buhari...

Dangote seems more a monopolist than a capitalist btw

rhymaster:
I have been on NL since 2007 and many hateful Ibos have come and gone! Many have changed their monikers after being hammered into submission! But one thing every NLander who is not Ibo surely has done is given up on Ibos and their hatred for every other part of this country! How can I be certain? If even 51% of a sample biases a sample population, it is the majority and that sample can be so defined by the majority characteristic - this is why I make the assertion that Ibos hate Rochas and there is nothing he will ever do or any Northerner or Westerner will ever do to please Ibos. Fayose is not necessarily hated like Ibos hate, he is disliked and many are indifferent to him. I am indifferent to him and most Yorubas know that Fayose is a thief or how can you explain the that a governor suddenly has 100 M in his Spotless Hotel in Ekiti? Not in Ibadan or Abeokuta or Lagos! Obanikoro and Fayose working for Jonathan stole N 1.2 B belonging to Nigerians to rig Ekiti election and Fayose reportedly bought 4 or 5 houses in VI as serving governor! Is that thievery not enough grounds to dislike this thief? However, Ibos hail their thieves and cry out son, marginalization while some other parts like SS will always support any thieving leader so far as he gives them money and weapons! The point is don't excuse the deep hatred Ibos have for Rochas on the same ground as Fayose! In the West, Fayose can never be considered a leader or elder! He is simply a thief hiding under immunity and the day that cover is gone, watch as he pays for his thievery and you'd never hear the generality of Yorubas crying "he our son, leave him alone!".

1) Hypocrisy is worse than any form of vice...YOU ARE A HYPOCRITE hence should be dreaded more than any poison...

2)Show me where Yoruba clowns like you celebrate FFK, Fayose, Odumakin, Adams, Afenifere etc...you all hate and insult them daily for going against Tinubu and loving PDP cum Jonathan...

3)Did Fayose steal your money? Was he poor before becoming governor? what's 100million to a successful businessman who defeated two different incumbent governors?... hatred cum poverty mentality don finish you...

4)On corruption, isn't it Yoruba that protested against prosecution of Tinubu for having foreign account as governor? And insults anybody that calls for Fashola to be questioned for his website and borehole scam? ...Has Fayose stolen as much as the above two who hypocrites like you worship?...Amosun who diverted bailout is good to you... Ajimobi that closes schools for flimsy and selfish reasons are your heros...bigotry don tie you like wrapper...

5)How is Aregbesola, or Ajimobi or Amosun a better leader than Fayose? Can their people lay down their lives or put it on the line as Ekiti does for Fayose? But a hypocrite like you prefers them to Fayose...if stupidity is a crown, you deserve to be an Oba...

6)Is Rochas offering a better government to his people? Can he be called a good leader? How much is he owing his people? Why are poorer states in same region with him not owing as much he does? which unique infrastructural development has he done in his state? Having ruled for over 7years , what does Imo have to show for it? Do you know him more than his people?...oversabi dunce like you...

Read Sanusi Lamido Sanusi article on Yoruba...Add Junaid Mohammed interview on same tribe...and try Aribiasala's article on same tribe...then probably you will understand where hatred and hypocrisy has both residential cum administrative headquarters in Nigeria...cure yourself first!!!

9) I won't honour you with a reply again Incase you wanna vomit more lies and hypocritical rhetorics... Kindly cure yourself first...don't infect others

10)Who knew Osibanjo before he became VP? Who knew Yar'adua before he became president?... Anybody can vote anybody anyday so far he wishes to do so ...Truth is bigots and hypocrites like you won't even vote Rochas if he contests today for presidency... Kindly move on with your burden of hatred...it is in YOU hence you see others through the mirror of your life...

Good Morning!!!

...but ignorance is costlier...

btw most of them were against the school from inception because it will simply destroy the feudalistic system there...while challenging the status quo...thereby making UNAVAILABLE vulnerable soldiers for the northern oligarchs...

What price is too much for a sane group to pay to liberate it's people No wonder they stopped PRESSID etc and similar laudable education initiatives of Jonathan administration...

Let's keep manufacturing footsoldiers for boko Haram...that's cheaper to do ...

Olayimikami:
Noted. Will revert with sample pix and try to explain in details before the week ends

Thanks so much... Waiting!!!
