I'm from Abia State, and I can validly tell you that this is really the authentic elders of Abia.

Now tell us how they are the authentic Elders

martineverest:
learn to reason like an adult.

Try as much as possible to act like 1...You may be an adult but you're such as hell Immature!

martineverest:
with ur ten naira mentality....the court of law is now a symbol of injustice?...grow up kid!

Are you Okay? And was I referring to you?... Someone between the both of us needs growing up.. But that's definitely not me!

Sylvester70:
in nnamdi kanu's voice "bunch of hungry red cap idiots" these people remains the problem of igbo land just give them 1bag of rice and 1998 model tokumbo toyota and they will u like zombies.as for me and my family we still remain by alex otti.

Keep on insulting people you'll never reach their Standard whereas, you're on a downward Spiral..

STALINN:
Never trust all this old so called Chiefs they ain't loyal, they are like hooes and if you think am delusional you can ask Jonathan.

martineverest:
cheap particle traditional leaders...they should take cues from apolitical oba of benin.

So the Kings And Elders have no right to Speak for or Against the Injustice currently bedeviling the State and the impending Chaos it may bring. They should just keep quiet... Where do you guys reason from?

They have been warned...

bonna4u:

My brother let us be objective here. I want the best for Abia which I strongly believe you also want but let truth be told, if Oti and Oga where accomplices of Orji then Okezie must be TA Orji's God father. It is hightime my Ngwa brothers realize that TA Orji is only using them as a 'getaway car' from a crime scene. Open your eyes.

Otti, Ogar and IKPEAZU were all in the same Party during primaries... The aforementioned two were well aware of TA's ineffectiveness, yet they pledged allegiance to him. Eventually rallying against him (becoming saints) when they failed to secure the Party ticket. You see my point? - If Okezie is labeled a Stooge, you should as well look back 2 years ago and you'll notice that OTTI AND OGAR WERE lobbying to become STOOGE-ELECT but failed.

bonna4u:

Argumentum ad Misericordiam. Okezie aka TA Orji's stooge has always been a loser. He lost the primaries and the general election. Abians have no problem with Okezie but his rejection from Abians stemmed from his association with TA Orji the most hopeless governor that ever ruled.

I actually agree with your opinion about TA ORJI and I think the tyrant should be in jail... But Otti and Ogar were among his accomplices, and if it wasn't for the fact that an Ngwa man should rule-1 of them would have been Governor, so quit making IKPEAZU the scapegoat here cause he eventually won. Sometimes, Good men do bad things just as bad men can do good... Tell me which way you like it.

OdenigboAroli:


Otti is a shrewd technocrat like Obiano.

Only? Does That single point make him better than all other Aspirants?... BTW we're talking about Ogar here and not Otti

OdenigboAroli:


I hate irrational clanish mentality. Otti was the right man for the job.

Please tell me how Otti was the right man...

OdenigboAroli:


Royal majesty my as.ss.

Are you Okay... So, you subscribe for the Injustice being planned against Ngwas.... No Problem... Ride On..

EXCELLENT move there by my Royal Majesties... The line has been drawn. Oga take note.

Yet messi is compared to legendary like Maradona, Pele, et al. but CR7 is compared to messi. Deal with that.

That's a point I'm always tryna prove...

ARGENTINA NEVER LOVED MESSI AS BARCELONA DO - NOW THEY MUST BEG HIM TO COME Back...
The 29-year-old Camp Nou legend quit his national side after losing the Copa America Centenario final on penalties and big changes are needed if he is to return in 2018.
Lionel Messi has had enough. After losing the Copa America Centenario final with Argentina on Sunday night in New Jersey, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner announced that he would not be wearing the blue and white of his national team ever again.
Messi missed a penalty in the shootout as Argentina lost out to Chile in a scenario similar to last year's events in Santiago. Two consecutive Copas (as well as the 2007 edition), plus the World Cup: four finals lost with the Albiceleste. And according to the player himself, there will be no fifth time lucky.
"It's a difficult moment to analyse," a distraught Messi said afterwards. "The first thing that comes into my head is that it's over. For me the national team is over."
And he added: "It has been four finals. It was what I most wanted. It didn't work out. I think that's it. It's what I feel now, what I think. There is great sadness. I missed the penalty, that's it."
And Messi may be the first of many to leave Argentina behind. Later, Sergio Aguero said: "We're all messed up. But that's the worst I have seen Leo. He did everything he could to get us here. But Messi probably won't be the only one to quit the national team. Several us are thinking about not carrying on."
Aguero said during last year's Copa that "it would be a failure if this generation of players didn't win anything" and his team-mates all agreed with that statement. But they still haven't and now the likes of 'Kun', Javier Mascherano, Angel Di Maria and Gonzalo Higuain could all follow Messi out of the national team.
It is a travesty that such a group of talent has failed to win a major prize at senior level (after claiming the Under-20 World Cup in 2005 and the Olympic title with the U-23 side in 2008). And perhaps the saddest thing of all is Messi's assertion that many will be happy to see him go.
"It's for the good of everyone," he said. "For me and for everyone. Many want that. People aren't happy with reaching the final and we are not happy either."
Messi in Argentina has always divided opinion. Even now, some supporters continue to treat him harshly simply because he has never played club football in his homeland. Likewise the media. But Messi cares deeply about his national team and that surely showed more than ever by his tearful reaction after this latest loss.
Even Diego Maradona has hit out at the Barcelona forward, telling Pele recently at an event in France that the four-time Ballon d'Or winner "doesn't have the personality to be a leader" like players from previous generations.
But Messi is just one player and if anyone has led Argentina to three consecutive finals, it is he. That they have ended in defeat is not the fault of only Messi, not by any means. Maradona did not score in the final of the 1986 World Cup and whie he did provide the assist for the winning goal, Jose Burruchaga still had to put it in the net. Had Gonzalo Higuain done similar in any of the last three finals, the story would surely be different.
Those are the fine lines between success and failure. And the result of one isolated match should not determine whether Messi is the greatest player ever. He already is. As Jorge Valdano once famously said: "Messi is Maradona every day. He is the Maradona from the World Cup in Mexico."
Valdano told Goal recently: "Winning the Copa America would strengthen his emotional ties with Argentina, but a Copa would add nothing to his status as a genius."
And Jorge Sampaoli, who as Chile coach denied Messi the Copa America in 2015, told
Goal in an interview earlier this year: "I think that whoever cannot recognise Messi as the best is a fool."
But Argentina have not been able to keep Messi happy on or off the pitch and that is perhaps their biggest sin. Berated and blamed by fans and the media, the Barcelona forward, whose every touch is idolised by those at Camp Nou, feels the weight of a nation each time he pulls on the shirt.
"What I would tell that man is that Leo does not play like he does in Barcelona for Argentina because here he may not enjoy himself," Sampaoli said in that same interview.
"We have to make people accept that he can play well and badly, for Leo to feel loved. If we do not enjoy him, nothing can make us happy. I can assure you that all the comments reach Messi and make him feel bad, and that feeling enters the pitch."
And therein lies the biggest problem. But there are also others. The Argentine Football Association (AFA) is in chaos at the moment with no president and Messi complained on social media just last week of organisational issues that had left the squad stranded on a plane in the US. That is no way to treat the world's best player - especially days before a major final.
Conditions on the pitch have not been the best either. Gerardo Martino is a good coach who likes to play attractive football, but he is not a winner and his track record at Barcelona and now as Argentina boss over the past two seasons have shown that. At Camp Nou, Messi has been given all the ingredients he needs to succeed. With Argentina, he has not.
Now he has gone and they will surely realise quite quickly what they are missing. But if they are to coax him back for one last shot at glory in the 2018 World Cup, then there have to be big changes. At the AFA, with the team itself, and also the attitude towards Messi. Treat him better, charm him, give him what he needs, including a winning coach like Diego Simeone or Sampaoli - and beg him to come back for one final fling in Russia.
Argentina have to qualify first, of course. But they should, despite a possible player exodus, and Messi will only be 30 (almost 31) when the World Cup kicks off. Still in his prime.
Messi has shown his love to the Albiceleste for more than a decade, he has given everything he has. Now he needs a break to recover emotionally; then all the love and affection he should have been given before. And maybe, just maybe, he'll come back for what could yet be a fantastic finale in Moscow.
Over to you, Argentina.

Israellb:
Yh, if that's from ur own point of view

Okay

Israellb:

Ohh ok dunno that's what u asked
Huh..about that i think all i can say is that they both great cos They both has different skills which we cant judge the with cos when we talking about that Messi is a great dribbler can hold the past any defence no matter how and on the other hand Ronaldo is also good in that in the time past inthe time of Man u and his early years at Real Madrid and also can sprint real gud with the ball tormenting the defenders buh due to his age he's been reducing the day by day, he only still got the Shot growing on, and his head skills is also still the and going bk to messi i think he's a great palyer in team work too his passing skill is uncomparable en he's very stubborn on the ball what i mean by that is he dosnt give up on ball so easily no matter how hard u pull or push him he still stuggles with the ball which Ronaldo doesnt do
So i think they're both great palyers, just with different skills, so we can only compare their skills. Though if u ask me i'll say it's Ronaldo cos am his fan, buh i know They'r both gud

But you'll agree with me that there's no better Passer of the ball than Lionel... And his all round attitude towards the game is fascinating... Coming from deep midfield (where he's often found recently) creating goalscoring chances for his team mates and in the same vein banging in goals, -only symbolizes that he's a better team player than CR7. And automatically a better all round footballer.

Israellb:

Messi?? I think he's a really great player although am a fan of Ronaldo buh i dont take things with that, i say things according to how it is, I like messi inface his dribbling skill the most, wish i had them en i also think he's been doing good in the Copa america too, according to his Matches i've watched so far creatin assists breaking records and at same time scoring he's Magical en i think he's making his way to another ballon d'or buh all could be in vain if his side return bk without the cup, so let's say he's just about to decide his career once more, he's a great one.

You didn't answer my question... In my earlier post, I was comparing Messi And Ronaldo... What's your opinion about their Rivalry?

Israellb:

Messi with Pele?? With Maradona?? Lol Even maradona said it Himself that ''Messi is a bad leader'' he's indirectly saying messi aiint like him and talking bout pele that's until he takes the world cup home and him also being the best there'll ever be, u have to wake up from the dream bro cos in the next few year u'll see messi's Five time best being Broken within his eyes ah tell u, that's life

OK noted... But what do you think about Messi-rivalry?

kinginvalhala4:








Awwww, you aren't aware or aren't interested in voting?

Anyways, oya start coming, I'm bring you to my team, team refiner.

OK bro

kinginvalhala4:





Hahahahaha, I feel you bro.
Bro have you been voting in miss Nairaland?

nope

kinginvalhala4:

You need a medal for this bro, should I bring it over or I should wire it to you via dhl or Bluetooth, which do you prefer?

Hahaha brother we're focused on telling the clinical truth.... Send it through Xender...

The Comparison between Ronaldo and Messi shouldn't be valid.... Reasons borders on the fact that Ronaldo even when been lauded by Teammates and officials of both club and Country is always been described as the best in the World and better than Lionel Messi. But Messi on the other hand is been compared with the bests of all time-Maradona and Pele... I agree Ronaldo's a very terrific footballer and the Rivalry is very good for the game... But we all know that Messi is the best there was, the best there is, and the best there'll ever be!

So you expect Igbos to fold their hands while they're being slaughtered?



No way.

Lemme inform you that I'm an Igbo from Ogbor Hill, exactly where the incident occurred, and I have an Elder brother Serving in Kano State, wouldn't like the Sins of others affect the innocent ones like him. There are more civilized ways to curb this huddle. Thanks

Having resolved on involving in retaliation, the Igbos should also bear in mind that they also have brothers in the North...
