Abeg, which kind video be that one wey dey up so? It seems @op na buharry kindred. Abracadabra APC 419. |
katlynf73:The thread is about these blessed set of people called "Pastors" and not Nigerians. I had a truck load of dirty experiences with these people, both personal and as a witness. Please, permit me to keep quiet on this matter. |
katlynf73:It seems you are not getting it right. Pastors are special kind of people when it comes to taking advantage of the poor. I mingled with them and have seen it all... Trust me, larger percentage of them only want to meet their daily needs at the expense of whoever that comes their ways irrespective of his or her predicament. |
malakaimoscondo:See this one dey commot shirt wan fight on top matter wey no concern am... See as you dey mis-type words because of anger... You better calm down and use your over bloated energy on Bokoharam for your door-mouth... Ignoramus! |

They need to be tracking people down to their destinations easily for DSS arrest and humiliation after making a post that offend or embarrass the government on Twitter, Facebook, Nairaland etc. BMC crew will be converted to their attack dog.... DeadvultureBBQgrill and his goons don get another portfolio ![]() |
blues234:Take federal might away from them and see how useless they are. Let every legimate tribe in Nigeria start behaving in such divisive manner and see all things go awol. They are behaving like a bastard and a terror simply because they know that, if Nigeria burn down today, they have Niger Republic they can relocate to. They are absolutely unintelligent. |
Why is El-Rufai speaking for both Federal Government and Ministry of Petroleum? Why is he addressing other governor's like he's their boss? This midget that can't handle his role effectively as a governor of Kaduna state is now talking like a super governor. |
Nigeria is sitting on a keg of gun powder... One day, things will just escalate and the elites won't find it funny.. poor people will join Bokoharam, ESN, Niger Delta militants, OPC, Shite Islamic sect, secret cults etc. Everyone will fight in unison against the all government functionaries and all the security architecture in Nigeria. A bloody revolution is around the corner and these are pointers. |
I was expecting him to mention the roles of Hamas and Hezbollah and other terrorist organization involvement in the whole issue. I was expecting him to mention about 3,000 rockets fired into Israeli civilian territory within 5day of the melee... I was expecting him to mention the car that rammed into Israeli Police checkpoint after shouting Allahu Akbar and injured about six Israeli Police officers.... The event occurred during live telecast of UN Security Council meeting. That singular act prevented the UN Security Council to agree on cease fire option to the crisis and shifted their meeting to another day. He also forgot to mention that, Hamas are using Palestinians as human shield against Israeli bombs and bullets. He also did not remember to tell the whole world that Israel will always instruct the Palestinians of thier intention to attack an area and also give a considerable time for people to evacuate the area to avoid human casualties.. Please, take this man for a clown he is and move on. |
michbax:That is what we call setting the record straight for posterity's sake... Naturally, I have nothing against the Igbos and will fight side by side ndi-igbo and other minority tribes for liberation of southern Nigeria.... But, if our founding fathers who had seen these times ahead had acted right, we wouldn't need all these long painful stories.... |

This is going to be very long, but, never mind; it worth the time and energy. SUMMARY OF NIGERIA HISTORY FOR YOUR INFORMATION AND EDUCATION. COPIED....... KNOW YOUR HISTORY. *THIS IS SIMPLY THE REASON WHY HAUSAS, YORUBAS, EDO AND THE NIGER DELTA MAN WILL NOT TRUST THE IBO MAN AT THE CENTER AND WHY THE HAUSAS MAY NOT WANT TO RELINQUISH POWER IN NIGERIA* Any historians in the house to vet this but no insults or character assassination please: Forgotten History Of Igbo Tribe And Northern Alliance. Do you know that when Tafawa Balewa was Prime Minister of Nigeria; Chief of Army Staff was from SE Chief of Naval Staff was from SE IG of Police was from SE Chief of Defence Staff was from SE Internal Affairs Minister SE External Affairs Minister SE Education Minister South SE Many other key ministries to SE Parliament President SE Unilag VC from SE The University of Ibadan VC from SE North resisted same at ABU! Still, there was dissatisfaction by SE, the officers from the region killed this same Balewa!!!! Out of all the most senior officers in Nigeria, SE has 37, none was killed. 8 from the north, all of them were killed. 10 from the west, 2 were killed. Then Ironsi imposed a unitary system of government on the country so that everything can belong to a region who snatched it! We must know our history so that when we want to make corrections, we will not end up concealing the truth. This has nothing to do with tribalism but everything to do with the truth.....at times when lies litter the streets. There is a tendency to think those are truths and facts. *What follows are documented facts that can be cross-checked for authenticity!"* Thou shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. *“Prof. Ben Nwabueze was the man who drafted the constitution that took away powers from regions and handed it to the central government because his brother Aguiyi Ironsi was the head of state then. Today, he is shouting restructuring that he helped to destroy. We won’t forget.”*. WHAT BIAFRANS WILL NEVER TELL YOU ABOUT THE REAL CAUSE OF THEIR WOES IN NIGERIA TODAY: The Igbo man is known to enjoy blaming the Hausa fulanis, Yorubas and indeed every other Nigerian tribe and Lord Luggard/Britain for their seeming claim of being in third class citizen status in Nigeria. In their perpetual attempts to play the victim card, they recount the political events of Nigeria from 1914 to the present in a half-baked and highly selective manner which cleverly avoids the mention of the roles played by their elite who by all natural laws of judgement were actually responsible for the woes that befell not only the Igbo race but the entire Nigeria nation. The story told in the post above is one of such selective and distorted accounts of history which the average Igbo man is fond of narrating. However, the national archives have the complete and unedited history of Nigeria regarding the political events beginning way back from even before 1914. I will therefore proceed to furnish my readers with the complete story for all to read and be endowed with enough facts so as to judge and act from an informed position. Shortly after the 1914 Amalgamation of the Northern and Southern Protectorates, it started getting clear that the country was bound to fail as the amalgamation in question was done with colonial fiat without the consent and consensus of the different tribes which were over 300. This prompted the political leaders to start asking for de-amalgamation so as to forestall the future danger which the forced amalgamation portended. To that end, Ahmadu Bello, speaking on behalf of the Northern protectorate in 1944 described the amalgamation as "The mistake of 1914 which if allowed to remain will ultimately lead to unstoppable bloodshed and a failed country". Awolowo, speaking on behalf of the Yorubas and Western minorities, described Nigeria as a mere geographical expression not qualified to be called a country let alone a nation. Awolowo added that if the amalgamation could not be reversed, then Nigeria should be structured as a strictly federal state so as to enable each tribe enjoy autonomy this freedom from being dominated by any one single tribe. But Nnamdi Azikiwe, speaking for the Igbos, denounced Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello, terming them ethnic champions. He accused them of nursing a sectional agenda against the unity of Nigeria, and he declared further that the Unity of Nigeria was non-negotiable. After moving the motion for independece in 1953, Anthony Enahoro proposed that a secession clause should be incorporated into the future constitution of Nigeria so as to give legal backing for any tribe to peacefully exit the forced union if it feels marginalized in future. According to Enahoro, such provision in our constitution would instill in all Nigeria's future leaders the fear of the consequences of misgovernance. But Azikiwe, speaking on behalf of Igbos, rose against him in the parliament and labelled him an agent of disunity, and enemy of Nigeria. At a later date, Awolowo too made a case for secession clause, but Azikiwe again resisted him and instigated the colonial authorities to threaten him and Enahoro with charges of treasonable felony if they didn't stop proposing secession clause for the future constitution. While Azikiwe did all these, Igbos cheered and urged him on because they felt the future Nigeria was theirs to dominate and lord it over every other tribe Before independece, Tafawa Balewa too had in a public speech described Nigeria as a British experiment and Nigeria's unity as a British intention which Nigerians themselves don't believe in. But Azikiwe kicked and demonized him too. Had Azikiwe co-operated with Enahoro, Awolowo, Ahmadu Bello and Tafawa Balewa about the secession clause, Nigeria perhaps would not have been this misgoverned. For those in doubt, here is a link of one of the numerous instances in which Nnamdi Azikiwe fought against the secession clause proposal for the future Nigeria constitution. It should be noted that there were many Igbo members of the parliament in which Azikiwe fought against Awolowo's secession clause proposal in the link above, but not a single one of them rose against Azikiwe or condemned him. Igbos initially never wanted to hear anything like secession in Nigeria because they so much believed, though falsely, that they were the most educated tribe. (The first Nigerian tribe to produce a university graduate is the Binis). As an evidence of Igbo domination agenda hence their initial resistance to the idea of secession; here are some quotes: "From all indications, the god of us Igbos have destined us to rule the whole of Africa"..... Nnamdi Azikiwe (1945). "It is getting clearer each day that Igbo domination of Nigeria is just a question of time"... Oscar Onyeamma. (1949). Anascopeterson: As at 1900, the whole of the present Benue State, Kogi East Senatorial District and some southern parts of Taraba State called Munchi District back then; were all in the Southern Protectorate. Whoever doubts this should consult MacMillan Atlas for secondary schools in Nigeria. With that situation the South had a higher population than the North hence always had an upper hand in any democratic bargain. But as at the early fifties when the regions were being created, common sense dictated clearly that these areas should fall in the future Eastern Region. But against common sense, the colonial masters decided to gerrymander them into the Northern Region. While they did that, Azikiwe who was supposed to be in Enugu fighting against it as the leader of the East, was far away in Ibadan struggling with Awolowo to rule the Western Region and also playing the spoiler role against Awolowo's attempts to have Kwara and present Kogi Yorubas carved into the Western Region from the North which was already too large by landmass. While he abandoned his burning house and was far away in Ibadan struggling against Awolowo for his own (Awolowo's) region, Igbos saw absolutely nothing wrong with that. Rather they applauded him as a nationalist. A nationalist whose house was burning yet busy chasing rats in a far away land. When opinions became unanimous that Lord Luggard and his government must be forced out of Nigeria and indeed the whole of Africa, it was still the Igbos that frustrated the attempts. Here is how: In 1948, Anthony Enahoro organized an anti-colonization symposium in Lagos for which Azikiwe and some other Igbos had agreed to deliver the keynote address. But when the D-day came, Azikiwe was nowhere to be found as he deliberately disappeared into thin air for fear of being arrested and dealt with by Lord Luggard. Anthony Enahoro then quickly replaced Azikiwe with another person who did the job improptu but perfectly well as he lambasted and lampooned Lord Luggard and the British Government. However, the British soldiers invaded the symposium venue, arrested the speaker and Enahoro and jailed them for treasonable felony. Ironically, the next day Azikiwe came out of hiding and granted a radio interview in which he accused Enahoro and the other organizers of suffering from youthful exhuberance. On regaining his freedom few weeks later and being told of Azikiwe's radio interview, Enahoro resigned from his post as Editor of Azikiwe's newspaper - The West African Pilot. Then he wrote a book titled "Nnamdi Azikiwe: Sinner of Saint". After launching the book, Enahoro left Azikiwe's party - the NCNC, and moved over to Awolowo's Action Group. The first military coup in Nigeria was carried out by majority of Igbo army officers. That was the coup that truncated democracy just six years post Independence and led to a succession of coups which put the country on the reverse gear for 33 years. Through that first coup, those Igbo army officers who accused the politicians and government of the day of monumental corruption, killed the political leaders of the Northern, Western and Midwestern Regions but allowed all Igbo political figures to escape by tipping them off prior to the D-Day. In addition to the killing of political figures, they also killed a total of 27 innocent high ranking military officers from every region except their Eastern Region. In the end an Igbo man called Aguiyi Ironsi, who was supposed to have been killed alongside other military officers, ended up becoming the new military ruler of Nigeria. Rather than immediately arrest and punish the coup plotters, he kept them in detention where they were treated as heroes. This was actually what sowed the seed for the eventual Biafra War. On the 23rd of February 1966 (i.e. a month and 8 days after the first coup porpularly but wrongly known as Nzeogwu coup, an Ijaw born Army officer called Isaac Adaka Boro who hailed from Kaima town of present Bayelsa State, declared the secession of the Niger Delta Republic in an attempt to free his Ijaw people from the monumental marginalization they had been suffering under Igbos in the old Eastern Region. But Aguiyi Ironsi immediately ordered Colonel Odumegwu Ojukwu to arrest him and hand him over to the military high command under him in Lagos. Ojukwu went all out against Isaac Adaka Boro with federal military might and within 12 fighting days killed 150 Isaac Boro's soldiers, arrested him, stripped him naked, and had him driven to Lagos and handed to Ironsi who immediately charged him to court and within two months secured against him a conviction of treasonable felony for which he was sentenced to death by hanging fixed for December that year by the Supreme Court. His 'crime' was that he declared secession of The Niger Delta Republic from Nigeria. Meanwhile the Igbo coupists who shed innocent blood of other tribes and even sprayed bullets into the bellies of the pregnant wives of Ahmadu Bello and Brigadier Shodeinde were not charged to court or arraigned before any military tribunal. Isaac Adaka Boro was in detention waiting for December to come for him to join his ancestors. But God so kind, a revenge coup happened on July 29 by Northern soldiers and Ironsi was overthrown and killed. Gowon took over and released Isaac Adaka Boro unconditionally, reinstated him into the Army with his previous rank. Then on May 30, 1967, Ojukwu too declared secession of Biafra Republic from Nigeria and without consulting or apologising to Isaac Boro, drew a Biafra map which included the very areas that made up Isaac Adaka Boro's earlier declared Niger Delta Republic for which he fought against him and killed his soldiers. Seeing such level of arrogance in Ojukwu, Isaac Boro asked Gowon to provide arms for him to crush Biafra by fighting on the Nigerian side in vengeance for Ojukwu's frustration of his own secession declaration 15 months earlier. Isaac Boro, as an Ijaw man conversant with the waterways, led the Nigeria Army through the coastal areas into Igboland to finish off thousands of Ojukwu's soldiers thus leading to the crushing defeat of Biafra. But today, Igbos accuse Ijaws of betraying them in the war. But from the facts as above, who really betrayed the other in all honesty? Be the judge. Why Gowon fought against Ojukwu's declaration of Biafra was as follows: After Ironsi and Ojukwu successfully crushed Isaac Boro's Niger Delta Republic declaration, Ironsi immediately proceeded to promulgate the Anti-secession Decree which made the mere mention of secession from Nigeria punishable with death by hanging. Ojukwu openly supported and endorsed the decree despite disapproval of it by the general public. So when Ojukwu later declared Biafra secession, he was reminded of the Anti-secession Decree made by him and his brother Ironsi. Deadly Truth: Igbos frequently reference Aburi Accord to create the impression that the rest of Nigerian tribes don't honour agreements. This is a very dishonest narrative from Igbos. First and foremost Aburi Accord was organized by soldiers and unelected civil servants who should not participate in political exercises like making laws due to the civil service anonymity principle. Secondly, those civil servants and military men in attendance were not elected by their federal constituencies to the Aburi summit. In the philosophy of democracy the only universally acceptable way of making laws is through duly elected representatives of the people. But in going to Aburi the peoples' representatives duly elected in the 1965 elections were all sidelined for soldiers to hijack the process. Where on earth do soldiers make laws for the people? Rather, the civilian populace makes laws that guide the military. Aburi Accord therefore had no seal of the people's sovereignty hence it was an illegality which shouldn't have been allowed to stand. Thirdly, in 1957, Nigerians from all federal constituencies democratically elected representatives whom they sponsored to London, paid their flight tickets and hotel accommodation for the Independence constitutional conference. Those representatives all resolved and agreed on federalism marked by regional autonomy and resource control in the Independence Constitution which they brought back home and everyone accepted it. In that constitution, Nigerians all agreed that on no account shall the military take over power. It was also clearly stated in it that ammendments to it could be done by only democratically elected representatives. That constitution was the first ever agreement between all Nigerians. On the day of his inauguration as the Army GoC, Aguiyi Ironsi stood before the whole world and with his own mouth swore to protect and defend that sovereign Independence constitution regardless of the circumstances that may later arise. But just six years after he manufactured an excuse to clinch power against the clear provisions of that constitution we all agreed to, unilaterally began to amend its provisions with his very offensive Decrees, and ended up dismantling the federalism and resource control therein, and ultimately subverted that constitution we all painstakingly sacrificed to draft. That was the height of Irresponsibility and the dishonoring of sacred agreement. That was how Igbos breached the first agreement, all Nigerians, ever all mutually consented to, thus laying the foundation for violation of future agreements. So Aburi Accord was only treated exactly the same way Igbos treated the Independence constitution agreement. Anascopeterson: Obasanjo removed history from the school curriculum hence the reason why many of what we know of the eventualities in Biafra war were altered to suite their narratives.

helinues:How long will it take you to understand that Palestine has no ancestral land in the middle east? The only thing they have there is their homes, which are temporary structures. This got nothing to do with religion.... Israel is fighting a terrorist organization called Hamas "who love death as much as the Israeli love life" and not the Palestinians. |

Lukuluku69:If this is your response to my post, then, it will be quite condesending for me to honour you with a response. |
Babinski:Only few people know the truth about the origin of the conflict but many are getting emotional on the ground of religion. Palestine has no land in that region... They are mere land grabber terrorists... |
smartty68:Allah is not known for fighting the battles of his believers but the other way round. |
I have given up on stuffs like this ever since a child was born with a Koran printed in France in his hand.... Chapter 112 ko Chapter 419 ni |
EverydayHelpMin:If a terrorist can become democratically elected president of a country, how much more a drug Barron. The most unexpected is a common occurrence in Nigeria.... Imagine a terrorist apologist as a minister for communication |
adedehinbo:I mean Palestine as a country in the ancient books of history.... Even in the Koran 1,500years ago. How did Jerusalem, Hebron, Ashdood etc becomes legitimate heritage of the Palestinians? Common sense should guide us seriously as a people to avoid this kind of bloodbath going on in the middle east. |
superjab247:There's nothing like Palestine in the books of history.... How would a country without history be the legitimate owner of the disputed land? All these middle east terrorist should be calming down for the sake peace. |
Buhari.... Remove the log in your eyes first before trying to remove a speck from another man's eyes.... A case of "healer, heal yourself" !!! |
It is absolutely pointless for anyone with basic understanding of the hostilities in the middle east to engage people on this forum... Their discussion is based largely on religion and emotions but lacks information on daily realities of the crisis. |
Was sheik Ahmad Gummi also a victim of the Air force offensive against the bandits.... If not, no one should believe this story.... |
Maybe they have forgotten that, they are non-Nigerians! Someone should remind them that they belong to Futa Toro and there they belong anytime Nigeria will break up. |
Vaughanlanrewaj:1. God at no time send anyone to build a religion for him.... No religion is from God! Quote me anytime of the day on that. Religion is always a brain child of some smart ones among us, so also denominations within the religious fold. 2. The hostilities in the Middle East is not as a result of religious intolerance but land border issues which has been degenerated into generational continuous war. 3. The ignoramus of this world brought religious ideology into this crisis to buy sympathy from the easily deceived religious convert hence, bringing Christian/Muslim dimensions into the war to create more hostilities around the world. 4. It is also foolishness to say "Christian" Israel is killing Muslims in Gaza and West Bank because, Judaism is the dominant religion is Israel and Christians are not the key people in Israeli government. Hamas and Hezbollah are terrorists organization of international criminal records.... Their agenda is never to liberate people from their oppression but use them as human shield at wat and at the end of the day annex their country as a terrorist conquest. I strongly believe the war between Israel and Palestine may never come to an end except both countries decides to learn to live with each other and agree on a common boarder line and learn to respect the accord as agreed between them. |
