Even though I don't like buhari and some APC members, Oby is a pretender. She pretended to love chibok girls, always pretending to love Nigerian masses.
Aonkuuse: They have regrouped now to fight Yahaya Bello. Who will believe Dino Melaye will lose the governorship ticket under PDP. Online support can deceive
Keep on killing yourself for Nigerian politicians, tomorrow he will mess your support up.
Prettiedame: "He said, even if you are not well the will like you, whether you are mad the will marry you, you don't have hand the will marry you, you don't have legs, you are blind that South African women will still marry you" It is a compliment. He was trying to assert the fact that the SA ladies are not so demanding. He just used exaggeration a bit
Our arguments and projections as citizens of Nigeria are sometimes filled with regret and confusion, because they are usually tied to politics, ethnicity and religion, even football club. Imagine when you argue and stick out your for a political party or politician and the next day you come to learn that the party or politician has been deceiving you, that your argument was even Noll and void. Oh boy these people sabi rubbish us wet be the masses. Just remove parrty affiliation, religion, and ethnicity, then reason these things - 1, South Africans and other nations have been humiliating us a nation, violating bilateral treaties, international immigration laws, AU charter etc.
2, Nigerian government and citizens agreed in principles and body languages to protest in all capacity available.
3, Government decided to boycott WEF in south Africa, and we were happy that for once we wan act.
4, The next day we discovered that Oby Ezekwesili attended the WEF in south African.
5, Almost all Nigerians including felt betrayed, but the government through their media reps cried louder that Oby was a traitor, and we were happy again.
6, Later, again we discovered that, Governors elrufai, fayemi, and even sanusi plus Jim movie attended. Chain another avalanche of tears of pain from being betrayed by those we thought were with us.
7, Later again, Fayemi denied attending, saying he went to south Africa for a friends newyam festival, sorry a friends bash. we got sensitive.
8, Oh my God! Later, other government agents came to tell us that Fayemi and co were already in attendance's before federal government decided to boycott. Chain there is God oo
See as people papa they shhitt for church and mosques, even shhit for shrine.
Were do we run to?
All Nigerian politicians need mob action and jungle justice, they don't give a hoot about us
Watching the Brexit debates and heard one of the MPs say " UK has no written constitution".
Couldn't believe my ears. I mean, how does a country or a nation function so well without a written constitution?
No constitution is actually not written, but it is a technical term use to describe a constitution which you can't find in one document or book. It is scattered into different documents, scripts, books etc. The written constitution just like Nigeria's is the constitution or laws of a nation that is in one document or book.
FSU: It is wrong to loot. Like he said there are multiple ways to protest. In the US you will be in jail for looting regardless of the reason. Lekwa ''Onye True Biafrans''. True Igbos like us will not seize an opportunity to become criminals. Obu ndi di ka gi na ele ogwu na South.
Message has sent, message has been received. Ebe odogwu no, ka onye ala na ano.
spectroscopic: If you are Igbo and you looted, you should be in jail. You are not a victim of Xenophobia and you did not loot for the victims.Some of the stores you looted are owned by Nigerians. You can protest, organize to close the stores, boycot SA products, picket SA embassy, and not loot. Hungry criminals acting like South Africans
Coward!, hiding in a dark bedroom without electricity. You will die a coward. I and many well meaning Nigerians and true Biafrrians are forever grateful for those Nigerians who protested against south African xenophobia, in anyway,. They vented their anger and the president of Nigeria was woken up from the sleep he was since 2015. Guy hide in shame, those uys made sent a message that was loud, necessary sound, focused fruitful
spectroscopic: What are you retaliating? You mean Yoruba criminals looting shops of fellow Nigerians in Lagos who are most likely Igbos?
Any Nigerian involved in looting and burning ''Shoprite'' is a criminal and should be jailed. You did not even pray for the real victims of xenophobia in South Africa who are still fighting for their lives, and you are in Nigeria forming victim and looting. Bloody opportunistic crooks. So far all looters have been from SW.
Mind you I am Igbo, and you should hide in shame. Forget you fake defense. We are the new cowards on board
Gistpeeps: Former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, has come under fire for attending the ongoing World Economic Forum in South Africa despite federal government’s boycott of the event over xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in the country.
Those who have genuine concerns about my being at World Economic Forum in South Africa, should please know that my decision to be here was thoroughly considered. I am in South Africa leveraging my ensure that @GovernmentZA never again looks away while our citizens are attacked, maimed & killed.
Ndiigbo seriously need to know that Ndiigbo are the worst traitors of Ndiigbo. Imagine, this one and Jim oviam of zenith bank, all Ndigbo. All the retaliations to the xenophobic attacks on Nigerians are from the SW, nothing from SE. It is a big shame
9jaBlogger: Former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, has come under fire for attending the ongoing World Economic Forum in South Africa despite federal government’s boycott of the event over xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in the country, Igbere TV reports.
Igbere TV had reported that Nigeria, alongside African countries like Rwanda, Malawi and DR Congo, boycotted the two-day summit holding in Cape Town following the attack on foreigners in South Africa.
Ezkwesili earned heavy criticisms from Nigerians after photos of her attending the summit surfaced on social media, particularly on micro-blogging platform, Twitter.
President Muhammadu Buhari’s Personal Assistant on New Media, Bashir Ahmad, was among those to first criticize the former presidential candidate in the last general election.
“Surprised to see some Nigerian experts in everything governance who spend most of their time lecturing the Government on empathy and the art of prioritizing national interest over individual benefits, (but) still went ahead to attend the summit”, he wrote.
Other critics claimed that Mrs Ezekwesili could not afford to boycott the event because of “her love for dollars” and the “camera”.
Apart from the former Minister, Founder of Zenith Bank, Jim Ovia, was also spotted at the event and currently being dragged on Twitter alongside Oby.
Below are some reactions to her attendance at the event, as obtained by Igbere TV..
DeWisedon: Those people attacking shoprite will still foolishly recharge their MTN lines and make calls with it and also subscribe to DSTV and GOTV today instead of breaking their Simcards and damaging their DSTV if really they want to boycott SA products....
South Africans are there attacking Nigerians and their businesses and we are here looting Nigeria owned businesses inside shoprite mall amd burning down MTN buildings where Nigerians are working. Its still a Win Win Situation for South Africa Una sure say we get sense at all?
Must we behave foolishly like South Africans Can lack of proper education be the cause of all these in Africa
dorothybella: 26-year-old Saliu Oladayo was handed a death sentence by an Ondo State High Court sitting in Akure on Tuesday September 3, after being found guilty of killing his 19-year-old girlfriend, Confidence Ebere.
The convict was arrested by the police after stabbing Ebere to death during an argument in May 2018 at Oshinle Quarters in Akure and fleeing from the scene of the incident.
Circumstantial evidence and autopsy report revealed that “Saliu Oladayo, a secondary school leaver, stabbed the deceased on the left side of the chest and her left hand with a kitchen knife during a little misunderstanding at No 2, Dele Ojo Quarters, Akure at about 2 pm on May 15, 2018.”
Delivering judgement on the case following the arraignment of the Oladayo on a one count-charge of murder, Justice Ademola Bola said the secondary school leaver was found guilty of the offence and sentenced him to death by hanging.
SINCE 1999, CRIME RATE HAS SKYROCKETED IN NIGERIA. BECAUSE OUR STATE GOVERNORS MISCHIEVOUSLY, REFUSED TO SIGN DEATH WARRANT, WHICH IS PART OF THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES. STATE GOVERNORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE UNPRECEDENTED SURGE IN CRIME RATE IN NIGERIA.
NwaEzefuNaMba: As expected! I told my frirnds yesterday to relax, even though the president is not always swift to action but his wrath when incurred is disastrous. Mark it, south Africa Economy is going down.
Which wrath? Abeg, buhari no get any wrath, except when you kill Fulani nama
odave: K. Please can someone post addresses of south African nationals in Nigeria online? We just want to pay them a visit and preach christ to them, nothing more, we just want to preach gospel to them. Lagos, PH, Abuja or any state. Please it's urgent!
DrayZee: Whatever minute amount they're losing is nothing compared to the Nigerians rendered either jobless or dead (I heard a Nigerian was shot already during protests). And it sure isn't comparable to the lives of Nigerians who are being killed.
Sure you may say we need to do something about it, but what we are doing is like drinking poison and expecting another person to die. It is stvpid.
You have nothing to offer, yet you criticize the brave ones who have offered resistance to xenophobia. Keep quiet and hide in your room. All these mtn staff coming online to defend their xenophobic jobs are worms.
The shoprite and the mtn office Nigerian are attacking
Are they any south Africans there??
They're killing Nigerians and we Nigerians are attacking a south African company that the staffs are Nigerians Do you guys think the South African is losing anything
The goods inside shoprite is owned by Nigerians
Look for south African and kill simple
Na same thing. Who go hunting kill rat wey him see, show say if he see antelope he go kill am too
Igboblog: BREAKING!!! Angry Youths Set MTN Office On Fire
Following xenophobic attack in South Africa, angry youths have set MTN Office on fire in the Bodija area of Ibadan, Oyo state capital, Igbere TV has learnt.
According to report, the office had earlier been shut over widespread attacks on South African companies in the country.
Igbere TV had reported that irate protesters had attempted to vandalise the office during the day but security operatives resisted the attack.
Meanwhile, some hoodlums regrouped at night and set the office on fire.
Our correspondent currently monitoring the development.
I[b] am beginning to love the Yoruba youth, just as they stood out during the fight against military dictators during military era in Nigeria. I have not heard anything from my brothers in the SOUTH EAST. No wonder they call us chest beaters. Ndigbo where are we when our brothers are the worst killed in south Africa. ODUDUWA CHILDREN YOU ROCK![/b]
YET IGBO BOYS IN NIGERIA HAVE BEEN BUSY TAKING SELFIES IN SHOP RITE AND MTN OFFICES IN ONITSHA, ABA, ENUGU, . IGBO BOYS IN NIGERIA ARE COWARDS, THEY ONLY KNOW HOW TO INSULT BRAVE YORUBA BOYS. EVEN THOUGH IGBOS ARE THE WORST HIT BY THE XENOPHOBIC ATTACK IN SOUTH AFRICA, YET THE ONLY MEANINGFUL RETALIATION IN NIGERIA IS ONLY COMING FROM SOUTHWEST BY YORUBA BOYS.
MAKE I SEE ANY IGBO WEY GO CALL YORUBA COWARDS AGAIN. IGBOS ARE THE REAL COWARDS
GoTV: This is why i love Islam even though I'm a born again Christian. Muslims are respected worldwide while we Christians are subjected to xenophobic attacks due to our preference for crimes and drug trafficking. We really need to change our ways as Christians if we want the world to take us serious like our Muslim counterparts
You lack faculty. Insanity runs in your bloodline.
peeps4u: People will resort to violence when both SA and Big govts look useless in tackling this issue. Imagine a Nigerian president whose country men are being killed unjustly in a foreign land still planning on envoy to send to SA in days to come and also planning to visit SA only in october to discuss the attacks with their president.
How much longer will Nigerians keep watching helplessly their brothers and sisters being killed and their biz looted in SA with no decisive action from Buhari, and not take to violence like this.
We have a DUDE and CLOWN as a president.
Even, the president of Ghana himself talked presidentially against these attacks while Buhari was only watching and nodding head like his aide. All Buhari does is to release statement via his aide.
People want to hear a firm and decisive statement from you and they will be calm. This violence would have been prevented.
And to the police, they've been used to killing armless protesters and Nigerians.
Buhari is a potential failure, and we all know that. Northerners don't travelled out, comparatively. So the victims are southerners - IGBOS, YORUBAS, EDOS, URHOBOS in descending order. What has the southern governors forum done? What has any Igbo Governor done? Catn they put pressure on the presidency to take prompt action? All our politicians are idiots, they never love us. But, let me see any of them that will come on Chris mass holiday abroad
Timoleon: So far so good, Nigerians are still the losers of this crisis.
Just imagine another life lost just like that. The shops you are boycotting or even trying to vandalize here in Nigeria has mostly our Brothers and sisters employed there. Especially in this very harsh economic reality we find ourselves.
Yes it is pertinent that we make our grievances known and if possible with some affirmative action/ violence.
A good place to start would have been the South African embassy. A protest in front of United Nations buildings in Abuja and Lagos is also welcomed.
We must not mutilate our noses to spite our faces.
I feel bad that my protest so far has been behind the keyboard. I will gladly join a protest that does not further endanger Nigerians.
#EndXenophobiaNow
You are a selfish nonentity May you and your family die before Christmas in painful accidents. SELFISH COWARD
fergie001: In their own case, no reported death of a SA'n instead is an unverified number of arrests.
Our own case, only one day, death, can't we arrest?..are we this poor at crowd control or is a case of we are what they say we are!?
Very sad.......RIP to the dead.
We are a useless nation! Police in south Africa would be watching south Africans beat and kill Nigerians, and they lend support to their people. Why should police even try to prevent the only brave souls in our midst from fighting for our brothers and sisters in south Africa. Nigerian police is full of slavish mentality.
JimohMomoh: Good one, part of my suggestion in the other thread.
To those suggesting attacks on Shoprite, 99.5% of the workers there are Nigerians, the mall housing the supermarket is mostly owned by state govt or private Nigerian investors, there are also Nigerian shops inside the mall. MTN Nigeria is now like a franchise, majority of shares are owned by wealthy Nigerians according to Nigeria Stock Exchange. Nigerians also have a major stake in Multichoice the owners of DSTV. Workers in DSTV Nigeria are almost 100% Nigerians.
We will only hurt ourselves and relatives if we burn down these companies. Nigerian Government needs to acts now diplomatically, sanctions should be placed on SouthAfrica, high powered delegation should be sent to SA to provide relief materials to Nigerians affected and meet with the Nigeria community over there.
What a deceptive analysis! What sanctions are you suggesting? Nigeria can not impose any reasonable sanction on south Africa. My friend stop being grossly selfish because you and you likes work in shoprite, mtn or multi choice. When another person dies, it is like a tree dies. Our brothers and sisters are killed like slaves and you are here talking about your stupid interest. Shut up for blood's sake! MTN, MULTI CHOICE, SHOPRITE SHOULD BE BE SET ON FIRE AND RAZED TO ASHES. Banks have sacked thousands of graduates in Nigeria, people lose jobs and move on. Stop this your madness. Big fool! May your loved never see this December.
