Who ever made it possible for these 2 different people to be in the same country and even doing more to prevent those who want to leave the country for the other , may such a person die a thousand times . I am still baffled how daft Nigerians have been rather than push this 2 groups out of Nigeria so that Nigeria can have eternal peace or at least push Igbos who already want to opt out so that Nigeria can have peace rather we keep hearing how some rogues will spill the last drop of their infected blood to prevent that.

My suggestion is that for Nigeria to have peace these 2 groups igbos and yorubas need to be pushed out of Nigeria

You sound like a one-in-whole-community elite from one of these minority tribes that beg for a deputy sit in the house during a new government.....the only reason why the Hausas have not made your people pay oxygen tax is because of the fear of the 'power to fight back' from the Igbos and Yorubas....You live in a country where more Hausas (though living in the farthest location) own oil wells than all other tribes put together.....yet the best wish you can make is to have their only two problems go away. You are a free person, don't wish yourself into slavery.

How reta/rded and goofy can you be...


The silly and laughable awards this clown is defending goes to crooks, incompetent losers and the most corrupt public officials.


Reminds me sef, one was given to IG onovo, one of the most worthless and incompetent pubic officials in Nigeria by the goofy, useless and incompetent president while BH slaughtered Nigerians daily, while kidnappings thrived unchecked, then turn around and sack the same clown he just gave out one of Nigeria's highest awards to for incompetence.

So what are you doing on our 'peppersoup forum'? Why not go join American or Japanese forum? If you despise the country what are you doing here? You must be a failure in life to keep associating everyday with 'failures', 'comedic people' and 'pepper soup country'.

Dumb can't read and comprehend dullard. Despising worthless awards they give to incompetent and corrupt people and despising a country are 2 different things.

Corrupt and convicted criminals like Tafa Balogun, Erastus Akingbola, Cecelia Ibru and Bode George are all recipients of the same worthless awards so what are you so happy about? Only clowns like you celebrate mediocrity and silly awards that means nothing to the average Nigerian, but only to the corrupt, crooked and convicted people.

Peabrain. Was any of those people given a national merit award AFTER they'd been convicted of an offence? Or you expect the award committee to have pre-empted their criminal acts prior to their commission? So all the hundreds of Nigerians who won those awards for their genuine contributions to the country should simply throw them away because one or two awardees was accused of crimes later on? Do you know there are Nobel Prize winners who were later accused and some convicted of crimes? Obama himself who won the Nobel after bombing to smithereens, innocent women and children in Afghanistan and supporting the oppression of Palestinians. Ellen Johnson Sirleaf of Liberia who won a Nobel despite accusations of corruption and nepotism under her rule. Warmonger Henry Kissinger given the Nobel Peace Prize in 1973. Will that make you disparage the Nobel Prize? Hell no. Slaveboy to oyibo. Worthless, self-hating riffraff with no common sense.

Idi/ot, does it matter before or after? Fact remains that ex convicts and criminals are holders of your worthless awards even after your corrupt and crooked president promised to take the awards away from them. Of what value or significance is any award to any honorable and deserving Nigeria if at the end of the day, convicts and criminals are in possession of the same awards?

Your kabu kabu president knowingly gave the same yeye awards to corrupt clowns under efcc investigation.

Why don't you disparage the NOBEL PRIZE AS WELL? Awards have gone to 'shining lights' like Al Gore, Henry Kissinger, the EU, and Obama.

Sorry but NIGERIA IS PART OF THE WORLD. You cannot separate Nigeria from the rest of the world and impose your own 'lofty' standards on her. Who are you and what are you?

If even the Nobel prize - the most respected on earth - has been awarded to questionable characters, criminals and mass murderers, then NO AWARDS ON EARTH is totally devoid of controversy, AND YOU WOULD BE insane TO EXPECT ANY DIFFERENT IN NIGERIA.

I already did, you stupi.d wan.ker. Go back and read the drivel you typed and my responses. I even gave you links.

Liu Xiaobo, the Chinese Nobel Peace Prize recipient (2012), is a convicted criminal.

And what about THIS?

''Henry Kissinger received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1973 for his work on the Vietnam Peace Accords, despite having instituted the secret 1969–1975 campaign of bombing against infiltraiting NVA in Cambodia, the alleged U.S. involvement in Operation Condor—a mid-1970s campaign of kidnapping and murder coordinated among the intelligence and security services of Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay—as well as the death of French nationals under the Chilean junta. He also supported the invasion of Cyprus resulting in approximately 1/3 of the island being occupied by foreign troops for 33 years. Some peace activists go so far as to suggest that the Nobel Peace Prize has become irrelevant due to Kissinger being a laureate.''


Yitzhak Rabin

Rabin won the prize jointly with Shimon Peres and Yasser Araft in 1994. Rabin, while in the Israeli military, had ordered the expulsion of Arabs, from areas captured by Israel during the 1948 War. He had also been responsible for the aggressive Israeli crackdown of the First Intifada while Defense Minister. Rabin also continued to authorise the construction of settlements in the occupied territories despite the peace agreement.


Shimon Peres

Awarded the Nobel prize jointly with Yitzhak Rabin and Yasser Arafat, Peres was responsible for developing Israel’s nuclear weapons arsenal, and was later blamed for the Qana Massacre. The Qana Massacre occurred in 1996 when the Israeli military shelled a villiage of 800 Lebanese civilians who had gone there to escape the fighting. 106 were killed and around 116 others injured. Four Fijian United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon soldiers were also seriously injured.



Menachem Begin

Menachem Begin (6th Prime Minister of Israel) was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1978 for his contributions to the successful closure to the Camp David Accords in the same year (the award was jointly given to Begin and Anwar Sadat). Unfortunately, Begin had also previously been head of the militant Zionist group Irgun, which is often regarded as a terrorist organization and had been responsible for the King David Hotel bombing in 1946.

Liu Xiaobo, the Chinese Nobel Peace Prize recipient, is a convicted criminal.






Dr. Liu, a long-time rights activist, received an 11-year prison sentence in 2009 after he helped write Charter ’08, a political manifesto, which promoted peaceful democratic reform and called for greater respect for fundamental human rights in China and an end to one party rule. After arresting Dr. Liu, police held him without charge or access to an attorney for six months. At trial, the government prevented Dr. Liu’s wife, foreign diplomats, and the press from attending.

[b]On October 8, 2010, the Norwegian Nobel Committee took the bold step of awarding Dr. Liu its Peace Prize in recognition of his “long and non-violent struggle for fundamental rights in China.”

Why does the recipient have to be an ex convict? A criminal is a criminal regardless of whether he was convicted or not.

1. What's all this got to do with Nigeria

2. Are you saying it's ok for criminals and convicts to be recipients of our awards because other entities give theirs to the same kind of people or it's ok to be a thief because others are?


What is your point exactly...




The point is NO NIGERIAN was given a national award AFTER he/she was convicted of a criminal offence. So you are WRONG to state that national awards are given to criminals and ex convicts in Nigeria. If national awards are given to any persons LATER CONVICTED OF A CRIME, you cannot blame the Nigerian awards for that (same happens with ALL awards globally including Nobel).

I CHALLENGE YOU to show us ONE recipient of the Nigerian national merit awards who was a convicted criminal at the time of receipt of such awards.

If you cannot do so, then you must APOLOGIZE for insulting the awards.

I really don't care about your dumb excuses and justifications because the same ex convicts and incompetent people are still holders of the worthless awards.

Onovo the former IG was grossly incompetent when he was given the award and still got kicked out of office for incompetence.



This rot and decay existed under Inspector General of Police, Mr Mohammed Abubaka, but he was still given the same worthless national awards..






Fuckckk you and your corrupt awards and for wasting my time..

Yawwwn. Just don't EVER claim that the Nobel is cleaner than the Nigerian awards. I can equally post the bodies of the innocents slaughtered by Kissinger and Rabin. I wonder how that will compare to a decrepit hostel. Mumu. Oh, and that Child Rapi.st also GOT to keep his Nobel award even after the rap.e conviction. So fuckckk you and your corrupt Nobel awards which you tried to whitewash over ours.

Asss hole, you are chasing your own tail with Nobel. I'm not a citizen of Nobel like you and I care less about Nobel or your idiotic fixation with Nobel, I'm a Nigerian and my concerns about my country is confined to my country, not Nobel like your dumb asss.


You can stroke yourself to death and divert attention away from your ignorance about your own country with your Nobel fixation, that's your problem and death, it still doesn't change the fact that this is about Nigeria and it's worthless awards in the hands of criminals and incompetent public officials.


Oponu sowenu..
