In my opinion, THIS IS A MEANINGLESS TOPIC. When South East is mentioned, ALL the states ARE recognized. Abia state has NEVER been in the background. It is very popular. Ebonyi on the other hand might be least mentioned because it is a very quiet state. |
raumdeuter:some people think and continue to say it was cowardly of Ojukwu to have escaped after the war. Look at it this way. You are the LEADER during a war. A war that was embarked on in the first place because the government of the day did not pay attention to the genocide of a group of people happening in the northern part of the country. The war is over. You as the Leader know that the government would not touch any of your people, BUT you as the Leader would not go scot free- especially one who had held them off and given as much as he got in physical battle for good 3 years. In a country like ours, it would not have come as a surprise if we heard he had been killed in prison or tortured without any avenue for dialogue. When you know these, would you stay on ground and wait for it OR would you go to another country till things have calmed down? He stayed in another country and came back after rife tempers had calmed down(anger is short madness, one can blindly act in moments of anger without rational thinking) and everyone had seen where they contributed to provoking a war. War is NEVER a good thing, and may Nigeria NEVER experience that again. We MUST never pay deaf ears when people are oppressed. How can the leader of a country be told, "My people are the targets of genocide in the North" and you act like nothing is happening? Over and over you were asked to do something, but your response was slow and you preferred to take all the time in the world while people were dying every second? Which people would see that and not snap/react? ESPECIALLY WHEN ITS GOVERNMENT ACTS LIKE IT CAN'T PROTECT THEM? You would only invite people to defend themselves, and sadly that's what played out. It was good he went away. If anything had happened to him, it might have been another story- especially when he might not have been granted dialogue. Normally it should have been, "Nigerians are being killed in the north". But we all know this is a country with 3 major ethnic groups. Yes, we should all see ourselves as Nigerians, but what do you say when a major ethnic group decides to kill another major ethnic group without any form of provocation? And even if you were provoked, as a sane individual who is not mentally unstable, shouldn't your grievances have been brought to the table first? Why attack people just because you feel like it? Are we HUMAN/ANIMALS? The Northern part of the country should respect the Igbos. A people capable of tolerance do not mean they are foolish. EVERY ETHNIC GROUP MUST RESPECT THE OTHER, and THAT INCLUDES ETHNIC BIGOTRY. NIGERIANS PLEASE DO AWAY WITH BIGOTRY. IT IS NOT GOOD. IT REDUCES US AS HUMANS. WE ARE HUMAN BEINGS FIRST, CREATED BY GOD. We must treat one another as one. NO HATE MONGER WILL MAKE IT TO HEAVEN, be you a Christian or muslim. You can't hate your neighbour and the next second you are praising God and acting holy. You only deceive your own self, not God. |
minimoha:classic! Lol |
Celebration continues....

martyns303:saw this claim too. Someone needs to confirm this pls. His username ends with .....AZEEEZ. He claims he sells 5GB@#1200 and 10GB@ 2000. He hasn't created a thread for this but instead goes posts in almost every thread, so no way of anyone reporting if he's fake or not. Who has confirmed the guy? Is he a fraud or genuine. Is it possible to sell@this cheap rate? if he sees this, let him come and defend himself. |
kingphilip:WONDER WHY NO ONE NOTICED THIS. |
I CAN BET ANYTHING THAT MANY PEOPLE DID NOT READ THE FULL STORY BEFORE CLICKING ON 'REPLY'. Same thing happens for every topic on nairaland. How can a so-called educated person glance at a topic and comment, without reading through?'. Same attitude for every topic on nairaland......unintelligent comments everywhere. God help us.. |
Mandu94:i hope i won't suffer people quoting me and saying what's obvious. Hasn't it been made clear it is maltreatment and ungodly? |
sunsewa:wrong mentality. Which is better- take courage and quit, even if you get no job immediately, at least you don't yoke yourself with what you don't know OR have the slave mentality and keep 'working' when you know everything surrounding it is wrong and cause your much loved family confusion later. It is those same children who will tell you(if you told them about this case) - "Daddy, quit your job. We need you Daddy. You are more important to us than that job". Sometimes when adults think they are too smart, children will teach them one or two things. |
jamillion:agreeing to be a slave and do something you know is ungodly because of money/job is a form of devil worship. THE LOVE OF MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL. johnydon22:some people have already lost themselves and can sell their souls for paper. After all, money is paper. Your soul...that you cannot buy. |
I HAVE ONLY ONE ADVICE FOR THE OP........ QUIT YOUR JOB. That is slavery. Any self-respecting person would have quit long ago. Don't go the 'will I get another job' angle. Nigeria is full of opportunities. It is people who have no drive or 'sight' that wait/beg for another man to give him a job. Some are even ready to become slaves all in a bid to answer 'employed'. Apply for job elsewhere(more than 4 places) or better still learn a skill you're passionate about and start your own business. Forcing a person to take communion, deducting your salary, forced donations, attending compulsory 'service' etc. My dear, if none of these things sound strange to you, what about forced communion?? Be very careful. Very very careful. Beware. Beware. Don't be linked stupidly to what you know nothing about because of greed. No true child of God filled with the holy spirit will do that. |
ChikezieU:so, who's doing that? The oba or............................? Is there something we don't know? |
THIS OBA ISSUE HAS DIED DOWN. Massob should not seek to drag Igbos into it's personal 'fight'. It was a bad action by the Oba- YES. But we can't all stand at a place. Apologies have been issued, elections have come and gone. IGBOS HAVE MOVED ON. Let no one call the Igbo any derogatory name(s). Same way some of you are surprised this issue has come up again, that's the same way with them. Massob should pls move on like everyone else and not seek to use Igbos in furtherance of its battles. Let the nation enjoy peace and forge ahead with more important things than unguarded outbursts. |
cole265:pls keep quiet. Igbos have since gone about their businesses and have nothing to do with this MASSOB drama. Say what you're sure. |
PreciousBro:I Never shot myself in the foot. You need to work on your comprehensive ability. It's 'weird'. Thanks |
PreciousBro:move on bro. Na so you like me? Lol. Work on your understanding. It's a 'crazy' one(no offence). |
PreciousBro:I see you are short sighted as well. Oh yes, you quoted me Mr. And wrongly at that. Your reply was clearly for someone else. But I guess apology is a big thing in your place. Move on. And Bye to you. |
PreciousBro:people like you are nothing new. Take it elsewhere. |
PreciousBro:pls quote someone else. I have nothing to do with people who can't comprehend and read things upside down. |
PreciousBro:get more educated. You have a twisted mentality. |
Jose35:@OP IF SHE STILL DOESN'T LISTEN TO YOU(to quit sex till marriage), THEN YOU NEED TO LEAVE HER AND CHART YOUR OWN COURSE. NEVER COMPROMISE. NEVER ALLOW YOURSELF BE SWAYED BY SENTIMENTS/UNBELIEVERS' OPINIONS OF YOU(they would be the ones calling you names for your decision). Remember: the flesh wars against the spirit.which do you want to rule you? Your decision. SHE MIGHT ALSO HAVE EXHIBITED SUCH BEHAVIOUR THINKING 3 YEARS IS A LONG TIME/SHE CAN'T WAIT FOR YOU TILL THEN. Women are not ones to make such promises to. A woman should marry in her prime. Don't try to hold her back. Never try it. You are 24, your focus should be on making something of yourself- finishing school and getting gainfully employed, and NOT going after/holding onto girls. Men's choices change. By the time you clock 27, you might find that you are in love with someone else. Then, what story would you tell someone you chained by your side for 3yrs? Set your priorities. Women have not finished. By the time you are ready for marriage, you will see more beautiful ones. |
PreciousBro:Mr, do you lack comprehension? That simply meant, since Nigerians have no qualms marrying non Nigerians, why should they avoid one another right in their own home(Nigeria)? It's like a man being best friends to anybody and everybody outside his family while he never speaks to his own brother/family? Plain hypocricy. So, next time ask for clarification if you don't understand. I can never be a racist. Though I seriously think you misquoted- I never said your first line. Tag properly. |
SAY NO TO TRIBALISM. If any tribe in Nigeria can marry an european man or woman, then why not a Nigerian like you, no matter tribe? Lol. Go where God leads you....whether same tribe as you or not. |
APC INFLATED VOTES YET PDP VOTES ARE SO CLOSE TO APCs? With 20LGAs won(APC) and 7 won(PDP)? APC 20:7 PDP and 79,000 difference only? When the population that came out to vote couldn't have been that much? The worst low a person can go is sell their conscience and oblige an opposition in making false statements in order to discredit an election already conducted. If Rochas Okorocha deserves to win and is the true winner of this election, no amount of blackmail by anyone can stop it. |
oneeast:tales by moonlight. |
XBLadez:and PDP is the angel party, or their candidate? |
AKPARAJA:And unfortunately for you, Imo people are very educated and intelligent, and vote for a man and not his party. They did it in 2011(bringing into power a party that was nowhere just because of one man they wanted) and they will do it again. And if you people causing mayhem refuse to desist from it, losing election might be the least of your troubles when God visits you. |
emmykk:If I wasn't sure, now I am that some people are deluded. What strategy, and which last time? EVERY PERSON ON THIS THREAD SAYING ROCHAS RIGGED THE LAST TIME MUST BE AN INCURABLE PDP TOUT. A 2011 ELECTION WHERE IMO PEOPLE VOTED MORE PASSIONATELY THAN THEY'VE EVER VOTED ANY OTHER GOVERNOR, UNITED AND WITH ONE MIND? ELECTION WHERE CITIZENS FOUGHT BOTH PHYSICALLY AND THROUGH THEIR VOTES TO STOP PDP FROM RIGGING? A man 99% of Imolites wanted as governor and no PDP was going to stop them? Anyone writing such lies must be from mars. |
steveben7:where are the majority that want him(PDP)? People keep deceiving themselves. A man that would resort to sharing money even to his own kinsmen just to win an election can never be the choice of the masses. |
gbegudujo:the same people that have voted him in again massively? Or Mbaise people? Get over your hate. |
, be clear regarding the topic.
