operation python dance started September 15 ,the question is which operation were they performing 5days earlier

propaganda is cheap and it is also the mastery of apc miscreants along side media terrorist whose stock in trade include blackmail.

Until the govt comes out plain to address the plight of the people of southeast, agitations will continue.

Mrl1:
Former Abia State governor, Dr Orji Uzor Kalu, has revealed what will end the needless agitations in the south eastern part of the country.

According to Kalu, creation of an additional state in the South-east zone, would put it at par with the other zones in the country.

Kalu made this submission when he spoke with newsmen during annual youth summit of Junior Chamber International, Ikoyi, hosted by the Orji Uzor Kalu Foundation at Camp Neya, his country home in Igbere, Bende LGA.

He said the decision of the government to proscribe the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) remained the only option that would guarantee stability which he said the country needs desperately at a time like this .
“I think a lot of hate speech had engulfed the country, and the matter escalated because the IPOB leader refused to abide by the terms of his bail. If he had agreed, and probably appealed against the conditions, the situation wouldn’t have gotten to this point. When two people are fighting and the court says, don’t fight, you obey the court. The court decision was not a personal decision of Justice Binta Nyako but the decision of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” Kalu explained.

“Some of you know what Ojukwu said here when he was alive, one day it will be made public. If we say we are marginalised, everyone is marginalised. We are marginalised because our people refuse to work. As soon as one becomes a governor or minister he buys houses in Ikoyi and abroad and the people will celebrate him.

“Remember when I was governor, the army and police used to do joint patrol. We should not box ourselves into a corner because my conscience will not allow me to do what is evil,” he said.

“The demography of this country shows that if you go to Kontagora, after the aborigines the next is the Igbo. The same with Jos, Kano, the West, name it, so we need the peace and unity of the country more than anyone else,” he said.

The former governor and chieftain of APC, however, appealed to the Federal Government to take the issue of restructuring seriously, saying, “We have gone past going to Abuja to share money every month.”

He pleaded with the federal government to go back to the 2014 confab report, “The South East zone should have one more state,” Kalu said, lamenting that rather than discuss the interest of the zone, “some Igbo leaders go to the president with the CV of their wives and children, but I go to him to tell him the problem of the people.”

“We need peace everywhere, we condemn hate speeches,” Kalu said.

@Orji Uzo Kalu,

A man like Buhari would rather kill more Igbos to reduce the number of states in Igboland.

The Oscar Awards 2017 for best costume designer went to
FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM.

I believe 2 awards should be given to this rogue
1st,for his stupidity
2nd,for his crass,undiluted,unvarnished stupidity in case the 1st is contentious

Is the struggle for Igbos about states?It is about devolution of powers and true fiscal federalism where all states can develop at its pace.
This failure was governor of Abia state for 8years,and made the state the HQs of "egusi" pyramid where commissioners and aides,came to peel egusi at his mother's feet.He turned the state to another bloodbath.Gave his mother the title of Elder Mrs,Her Excellency and all worth not,as traditional rulers struggled to handover titles to her or risk losing their seats.
This same psycophant was traitor-in-chief to Ekwueme in 1998 at the Jos Convention,and now preach oneness of Ndigbo.
This school dropout from University of Maiduguri whose only achievement was buying his certificate from ABSU stole Abia blind.What did he do?Complains of buying houses abroad,yet he owns a mansion and chains of businesses in S/Africa.
This hypocrite whose only achievement was making all members of his family,commissioners and aides as well as appointing an awaiting-convict as his successor who is now a "Sin-ator" and chairman on the committee of dumbness.
You all come here to abuse NK whose(only crime to me was constituting parallel security services)of abusing the elders. Who are the elders?These ones?
Or the dark-googling one in Anambra who is meeting scientists to bring up people from Antarctica to come and see his state
Or the weeping prophet in Enugu,who in the midst of deaths around him is busy still thinking of Chime or Ekweremadu
Or the one who stole Ebonyi blind with his partnership with anyim Pius anyim and getting free rides to the UN and shaking oyibo hands
Or the akpu-headed stooge in Abia who left classroom for classroom(this time under a multiple-award winning failure,his predecessor)
Imo state,no way....I won't talk.
This one is making God consider apologizing to Lucifer because he has surpassed the latter in ignominy.
The elders are the sellouts,shout afonja or aboki from 2d till tomorrow,we know buhari,he is a bigot.I have seen gokd,bad and ugly people across all tribes.There is freedom of speech,let anyone say what makes him comfortable..what about our Governors?today OUK is in APC,a saint and is now a ventriloquist.
Buhari said we should follow constituted channels because he knows these efulefus will sell us again for 5loaves and 2fishes.
Let us Fight our leaders,they opened the doors for buhari,I have a tacit belief that they promoted this using the C-in-C,and now claiming to love us.
The ideology remains,we need a better Nigeria,but these governors and legislooters and rogues,like this one can never give it to us.Let us charge anew at them,and tell them that "ourmumuhavedo".
The military invasion is unacceptable by international laws and that must resonate.
" Wise men speak because they have something to say,Fools(like these)speak because they want to say something."(Plato)

Now we see the fantastic beasts and where to find them.

Condolences to the fallen ones.
We meet to part no more.

God Bless the S/E
God Bless the Youths,
God Bless Nigeria
God Bless us all.

Thats where you get it wrong! The Ordinary Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba, Delta, Edo etc all suffers the exact same fate! Tell me how OBJ presidency betters the lot of the Ordinary Yorubas? Show me how the Presidency of the Hausas betters the lots of Ordinary Hausas on the street. Tell me how the Presidency of Jonathan betters the lots of Igbos, Deltans etc.... The Billonaires Igbos, Hausas, Yorubas are all Friends and will always unite with their Money to Crush anyone that wants to disrupt their Cash flow. This is how it is across the word or why do you think the United States invaded Iraq, because of Nuclear weapons that did not exist in the first place?...... The Hausa or Yoruba is not your problem but the Rich elites. It's always the Rich vs the Poor and not Igbo vs Hausa...... Lots of Igbos speaks and have triving businesses in the North... Lots of Hausas in the east. The common man is not your enemy, he suffers the same faith as every other common man out there!

MARKone:
This man is so daft! So it is the creation of more states that will stop the visible marginalisation of the Igbos in today's polity. Very disappointed with this man.

The man na fool I swear. So the following doesn't matter to him:
1. The fact that the south east has no ports

2. The south easterners have to pay more in import duties to bring their goods in, sometimes these importers are victimised by the custom operatives who happen to be predominantly northerners. Goods amounting to millions in Naira seized for frivolous reasons (anyone remembers the ridiculous plastic rice episode last year? Customs seized tons of rice imports from Igbo traders during the Christmas festive season - Even though NAFDAC confirmed that there was no such thing as plastic rice!)

3. After going through all that hassle, we would then have to transport the goods to the east, where customs, FRSC and the Nigerian police would tax eastern business men to the last penny.

4. We would spend hours navigating the deplorable federal roads in the South East.

5. The fact the FG has deliberately refused to create a functional port in either rivers or Cross rivers, a port in either one of these states would make imports a lot easier for igbo traders but guess what? the Lagos import cartel along with the Northern Custom officers wouldn't see their egunje in that, so the FG has decided to keep playing politics with this issue.

6. The fact that the south easterners being predominantly Christians have become the easiest target for ANY religious uprising in the northern part of the country, A cartoon gets published in Denmark, solution = Kill an Igbo man. Israel attacks Palestine, Solution = Kill an Igbo man! and when these atrocities happen the security operatives would either protect the attackers or turn a blind eye while easterners are killed in their hundreds.

7. The fact that the east receives less in federal allocation for capital projects.

I could go on and on. Its funny that someone like Kalu, with all his so called "political expertise" can't see the injustice that most if not all Nigerians (even the yorubas know but they would rather laugh about it) can see then you just have to wonder how bad the leadership crisis in the East actually is!

If the Abia crisis had happened in the other way, like it is the Hausas killing the Ibos and Buhari travels to the New York for UN assembly during the crisis.
You would have seen headlines like
"Nigeria President Ignores the killings of Ibos by Hausas in Abia, travels to NY for UN conference".
"Buhari prioritizes New York travel over the massacre of Ibos by his tribesmen in Abia"
