So silly a union. It's not like they would use the money appropriately.

Meanwhile, keep yourselves busy while waiting for the whole fiasco to get called off on

The Senate has ordered the discontinuation of the case it filed at the Supreme Court on the suspension of Hon. Justice Walter Nkanu Onnoghen. This follows the intervention of the National Judicial Council (NJC) on the issue.

In a statement signed by Yusuph Olaniyonu, Special Adviser to the Senate President, the Senate announced that it has decided to give the NJC intervention a chance.

“The Senate has therefore decided to discontinue the case it filed in the Supreme Court. It should be noted that the case has been slated for hearing tomorrow. This decision also affirms the confidence of the Senate in the ability of the NJC to successfully and creditably resolve the issues”, the statement stated.

Filmsy excuse.
He knew he couldn't match the intelligence of the other candidates and the weakest link he had intended to pick on had bowed out of the debate.
He's an entire dummy, alongside his airhead advisers.

hmmm

IPOBIANS really need to use their common sense in digesting and giving their opinions on sensitive issues.
They come off as too emotional and that's what propagandists are banking on.
Really sad.

This kind idiocy ehn. They have successfully ruined Atiku's half stronghold.
Won't be surprised if KANU now works for Baba

Earthbound:
And you think you'll make it in life with this attitude

Don't mind the animal

boldaslion:
Lie lie Mohammed 2, gutter journalism. Where did you get your report from. 1. It is a young lady and not a man. 2. She was not dead, one hand and one feet were badly crushed, she was eventually rushed to hospital. I was there when it happened.

She's dead now. She was a corp member

cronsberg:
Rather pity your tribe, there is nothing you or anyone can do to the fulanis at all. The mistake you animals make is that you think fulani in nigeria are just some few insignificant minority roaming around with cattle,FYI, we are millions in number in nigeria alone, when push comes to shove,i promise you it will be your tribe that'll be endangered by furious full blown attacks by fulanis. Dont forget also that our brothers are all over cameroon,chad,niger etc trust me,you cant do shiiitt to us,you can only attack isolated fulanis who may number maybe not up to ten in the bushes. But dont push us

See this useless animal.

Blackfire:
Walahi Una dey crase. Una papa papa no fit think am fa...

This country belong to us.

It shall never ever be well with you, your kith and kin.

These people are so animalistic in nature. I wonder why we share the same space with these barbarians

MensesDoctor:
That's OK. Still in line with what I preach, that none of these theories is 100% efficient.

What do mean by being "hornier"? Pls

The urge to have sex increases.

MensesDoctor:
The reason why most girls get unwanted pregnancy is because they pay more attention to menstruation because it is symptomatic (that is, they can see it and feel it). And they pay zero attention to ovulation because it is not symptomatic (that is, they can neither feel nor touch it).

But then ovulation is the master controller. If every girl can calculate very well her ovulation time, and avoid all avoidable, abortion will decrease.

I beg to differ.
I usually notice and feel the signs.
I become "hornier"
My discharge becomes transparent and stretchy like albumen.

I personally told my friend that I'm not going to travel this time and he told me to forget that thing. That before new year now I go carry my bag travel, that I'm an Igbo and no matter what, if they tell me that masquerade is dancing in the village now, I will travel. I laughed anyway and got crossed with him instantly.

I looked at him and said "why are you guys so stupid? (He is Yoruba), Why do you guys always have problem with Igbos in everything? Even to travel to their various villages to see their people, you people will still complain. What is wrong with you guys. Lagos is not my land, I got to go and see my people and apparently, you still have problem with that. My friend had to shut up.

Well this article I stumbled upon on net will explain to whoever care to know the reason is necessary for any Igbo man anywhere to come home and see his people at least once in a year during festive periods like Christmas ...

“It has become our tradition to travel every Christmas. I am going with my wife and my children because this is the only opportunity to see our relatives who are based in other parts of the country and even abroad. We meet to discuss family issues. No matter the fare, we must go.” At the Jibowu Bus Park in Lagos during the week, Ugochukwu Anufurum was firm on going “home” for Christmas/New Year celebrations no matter the situation.

The Yuletide and New Year season is one of the few seasons millions of people look forward to every year all over the world. In Nigeria, it is one of the few seasons that bring friends and families together, including long-lost ones, and as such, one that countless number of people always looks forward to.

However, the Igbo people in the South East section of the country are known to have, over the years, developed special interest for this season (seemingly above all others) and as such would do everything possible that they mark the season in grand styles. It is therefore a very common sight to see the Igbo using the occasion of Christmas to storm their villages from wherever they might be, including far away cities like Lagos and Abuja, while some even travel from outside the countries for the same purpose.

The Igbo, as believed in some quarters, love to show off their wealth and flaunt what they have and this they do more than any other ethnic group in Nigeria. It is believed that they use the Christmas time to travel to their villages to show off the wealth they have been able to accumulate over the year.
However, the pan-Igbo socio-cultural group, Ohanaeze Indigbo, strongly differed as it declared that the Igbo never travel at Christmas because of show off. The group vehemently denied that the mass travelling of Igbo, especially during the Yuletide, is done for showboating, but rather something the Igbo do as a mark of respect for their roots. As such, the group maintained that no Igbo person should ever be vilified over the issue.

In a chat with Saturday Tribune, the Publicity Secretary of the Ohanaeze Indigbo, South West, Mr Peter Anosike, pointed out that only two tribes in the whole world-the Igbo and the Israelis-were known to never joke with their roots and who always ‘remember their homes’ wherever they might be in any part of the world.

“Anywhere we go, we must always remember home. The only tribes that remember home are the Igbo and Israelites. Even when they die in a foreign land, they would prefer that their dead bodies be brought back home for burial. As people that have travelled far and wide, the Christmas time provides the Indigbos the opportunity to see their families and loved ones again.

“So it is more of a home-coming for an average Igbo traveler, because an individual you’ve not seen from January to December, you are suddenly given the opportunity to see such an individual. So travelling home for Christmas is never about showoff and those who have such a notion should discard it immediately. The period provides an opportunity for Indigbos from all walks of life to have a reunion sort of,” he pointed out.

At this juncture, it is noteworthy to state that there are many other festivals that also serve as an avenue for south-easterners to visit their villages, or “home” as it is generally referred to. Each of such festivals is unique in its own way and attracts its own fair share of participants. For example, Easter, another major Christian festival, also serves the same purpose, while there a few traditional festivals that Igbo still hold in high esteem and which they would do their best possible to participate in.

Some of such traditional functions or festivals include: the annual kingship festival, that is, the Ofala Festival, which is mostly celebrated during the Christmas in different villages in Igboland; Iwa Akwa; and the Okonko Festival, which is used as the festival to celebrate the coming of age of male youths. There is also the Iza aha, Ede aro festival (in celebration of the Aro Deity), age grade meetings, as well as the Iwa Ji Festival, which is the famous New Yam Festival, among others.

These cultural and traditional activities would almost always make an average Igboman embark on a journey back home to participate in the festivities. But despite this large array of festivals and their popularity, it is only right to say that Christmas and festivities associated with it dwarf them all.

The real seasons the Igbo don’t joke with going “home” during this period has always been a source of debate, especially among non-Igbo and no matter the length of such debates, the real reasons have always remained evasive. However, inquest into some of the arguments provided by those who engage in this practice and those who don’t might provide some sort of insights into possible reasons behind this annual pilgrimage.

For many, one reason the Igbo travel home for Christmas is to ensure family reunion. According to those who nurse this belief, only few tribes in the world could match the adventurous and industrious nature of the Igbo. Therefore, according to those who hold this argument, if an Igbo individual has been away from his home and roots all through the year, it is only normal for such people to create an avenue for themselves to meet once again in an atmosphere of unity and camaraderie.

Sharing this view with Saturday Tribune, was a Lagos-based businessman and an octogenarian, Pa Uche Anisiemeka, who claimed to have spent over 60 years in Lagos. Pa Anisiemeka’s escapades and success in Lagos have him boasting of an enviable house and other investments in the Okota area of the city. But despite his over six-decade sojourn in Lagos, Pa Anisiemeka claimed to have only missed spending his Christmas holidays in his native Imo State on a few occasions.

“It is common knowledge that the Igbo are very enterprising. They are migrant-entrepreneurs who are endowed with immense competitive spirit. They prefer to leave their families and homes in search of greener pastures elsewhere. They can live in the cities from the beginning of the year to the end without visiting home, but one thing a lot of them would not do is to celebrate Christmas outside of their hometowns, in the company of their families, friends and age-long colleagues. Celebrating Christmas at home is considered typically cultural and it is curiously expected of anyone living in town or abroad to re-connect with the home people during Christmas,” he told Saturday Tribune.

Yet, there are many others (mostly non-Igbo) who are of the opinion that the yearly journey home is spurred primarily by ego, showmanship and unhealthy competition, rather than genuine need for reunion. Saturday Tribune, during the week took up the task of attempting to unveil the reason(s) for this ageless behaviour and as such, some opinions of randomly selected Igbo travelers were sampled. The quest to solve this “mystery” took Saturday Tribune to some popular motor parks in Lagos which, as expected, had become a beehive of activities.

At the popular and ever-busy Maza Maza Bus Terminus in Lagos, a middle-age traveler who identified himself as Chinedu Obasi, argued that no matter how busy one is, he should always create time to remember home. According to him, since it is practically impossible for many Igbo living in the other parts of the country to be travelling home as often as they would have loved, calving out just one period in an entire year to achieve this purpose is not too much. This, he said, is what the yearly journey home during Christmas is all about.

“Christmas brings a moment in a year when all Igbo or majority of them living outside Igboland return to their villages to reunite with their kin who they have not seen, probably in the last 12 months,” said Obasi, who was getting set to travel to his native Enugu State.

Similarly, Chizaram, a 37-year-old native of Abia State, also pointed out to Saturday Tribune that Christmas provided the only opportunity she had of seeing her aged parents, other relatives and loved ones, who like her, were living in far places. Chizaram, who was spotted making last minutes efforts to board a bus, also at Maza Maza, which was going to her hometown of Umuahia in Abia State, said she was willing to brave all odds to make the journey.

She however also hinted that it might be impossible to rule out showoff and show-boasting as one of the reasons some travel at this time, a development she said often served as one of the reasons young men and women often veered to a life of crime so that they would be able to make money at all cost so as to be able to meet up with others. She further pointed out that, in some instances, parents whose children are coming home go all the way to boast about such children and the children in return will do everything possible not to disappoint such parents, including taking to a life of crime.

“To an average Igbo man, going to the village is non-negotiable. Far and near, sons and daughters return home, besiege their respective villages, not only to celebrate Christmas with their kith and kin, but also to provide an opportunity for many families to boast about their illustrious sons and daughters, whom they are proud of,” she said.

But for other travelers, the yearly exodus is nothing more than a family tradition. At the Jibowu Bus Park, yet another traveler, Ugochukwu Anufurum, insisted that the period provided an opportunity for him to attend to salient and sometimes delayed family/community matters, especially since other important stakeholders in such matters would also be around.

“I can say that this is why the Igbo work hard to ensure that they gather enough money with which they can go home for the Christmas celebration. They do this because the communal life they live as umunna would require them to give gifts to their kin when they get back home,” he further noted.

What a stupid lie. Yorubas have no problem with you people travelling down to your covens. I wonder why you must always drag us into your issues and misfortunes.

LMAOOOOOOOO. Those are cheap extensions she burnt na. Them born her mama well to burn authentic human hair?
If after this display of foolery, she's still found wanting in other aspects of life like premarital sex, gossipping, envy, backbiting etc, who is she deceiving?

This kind idiocy na first class. I expect nothing more from a group of people that decided to waste their lives following the ramblings of an albino pig.

[quote author=thaqib post=63411624][/quote]Lmao. That's where you missed it. I was born into a Muslim family, had my Quranic graduation as far back as 2006.


Then I saw the light and became a freethinker. I hate religion as a whole. If Christians are found wanting too, I never hesitate to blast them.

Your Firdaus was silly to have done such BS from the outside, when she had not been called to bar. If she wanted to do such, she could have fought for the rights from the inside, after becoming a barrister.


What is wrong is wrong. Two hours of not using her hijab would not have denied her Al-Jannah, except she's found wanting in other facets of life. No be by covering head and having a venomous heart.

Do you even realise that by being rude to the benchers and insulting all that tried to convince her to do the right thing, she has committed a sin or does the Quran ask you to be rude to others?

On the scale of measuring sins, removing her hijab and cursing people are the same. Don't be stupid okay?

thaqib:
U are very biased and unfair. U also thinking very locally, I wonder if you have ever travelled to see what operates in other climes ,those from who we inherited our legal values. To argue that dressing according to ones belief is a calculated mischief is very unfortunate. .

My friend keep quiet.
Homosexuality is also accepted in other climes. Why not here?
You, Firdaus and your other supporters are all animals. FOH.

Bari22:
To every Muslim converted to Christianity, 100 more are ready to replace him.

'La ikraha fid din' (no compulsion in religion)

This is my contribution

Quote me and get neglected

You are an ugly hearted extremist.

cocolacec:
Buhari’s daughter is not a role model for the muslims.Muslims follow the Quran and not Human beings.

Buhari's daughter could have used her father's position to go against the law and wear a hijab but she knows what's right from what's wrong.

The stupid girl has no case. The law is the law. There's nothing your stupid noises can do about it.

Before you come for me thinking I'm a Christian, know that I am irreligious. I am not you fools blinded by religion and I would never be part of what makes people have unfounded hatred for each other

You are all mad.

It was Paul Adefarasin of House On The Rock. Freeze was once a member of his church...

Taah! Where you keep "Area G" in Ogba? Those ones are monsters.
They decongest cells by killing the criminals in broad daylight..

AND VOTES HE SHALL GET.
All he needs is to patronize them. Who does not know that flatinoes are emotionally weak?.

Opistorincos:
Leyin aponle, abuku lo kan

Abuku ni o. Wey full truck.

See how the FG keeps heaping accusations on the terrorists, legit or false.
All these could have been avoided if they did things, devoid of insults, threats, disturbing public peace and other unconstitutional activities.
The word "civil" must be absent from their vocabularies.
Now the struggle has been reduced to rubbles, a joke. Dilector has been Zakzakyed . The rest of the group are acting hopeless.

AFONJAPIG:
IPOB YOOTS keep rescuing the ZOOS... well done achoboy

Senseless piece of SHEET.

All the Nairalanders on this thread no get TV for house .
Or they don't have DSTv.

Caseless:
airheads like you won't make your point without being emotional.

You should talk about what you know(the open), not otherwise.


Those who rape kids(boys and girls) down south , sometimes in places of worship that we hear of everyday are "open" too.
Leave us with our under development.

I'm right now in the south, I can't see the eldorado you guys claim whenever the north is mentioned.

Coming from a loony bin who jumped on my comment... We don't need barbarians in our midst. Go back to your hellhole.
Being emotional must surely be strange to you as y'all are without no human compassion.
Who wouldn't be downcast when you Godforsaken creatures keep setting us back?
Fool.

Caseless:
and all open gay's from Nigeria are southerners.

Key Word: OPEN.
They are not hypocritical about it. If you have a high concentration of such scums in your region, I don't see why you should be fighting against developmental projects, citing IMMORALITY when the North is unfortunately, the HUB of all things evil.

BafanaBafana:
I don't support women joining the army. They mostly end up as sex slaves for officers.


But the person who fabricated this lie about nothern elites saying this and that is not enlightened. The lie is just like Tom and Jerry

My friend, keep quiet.
A group of people that can reject a film village, stating immortality and other forms of BS, can also make such disgusting statements.
The irony of it all is that the North is the modern day Sodom and Gomorrah. They abuse all sorts of drugs, homosexuality is the order of the day, even infidelity as the burqa wearing women feel they cannot be caught, seeing that they are always fully covered.
FOH abeg.

horsepower101:
The north have common ground because they have realized that in order to survive; the oil money from the real south must continue to flow. They have so much to loose if they don't t remain artificially united.

Plus the north also have Yoruba Muslim on their side.

There's nothing like Yoruba Muslim. That's why your people are living peacefully in the South West without the fear of getting hacked with devilish looking weapons for running their mouth like faulty faucets, unlike the North.
Keep creating unhealthy division among southerners. Your foolishness is next to none.
