FG and State government agreed to disobey court order and to encourage illegally?

The essence of the petition may be for record purposes

189.7 dollars for human life in Nigeria

And President Goodluck Jonathan built schools for them.
Their politicians understand their needs

20k? Is it for transport, fees or accommodation.
This country is really in a mess

Nigerian stock loss 93 billion simple. Forget global decline.
Before the decline where was Nigerian stock.

That's why I laugh at the advert of Fidelity public offer

Salewa97:
Na wa o!

People just like to blame Tinubu for everything without understanding the bigger picture.

These tough decisions are meant to stabilize the economy in the long run.

Sometimes you have to break a few eggs to make an omelette.

Define the long run?

PandoraObi:
Oro is not needed when the miscreants and the criminal we accommodate said they wouldn't be part of the protest, Oro is to maintain peace against invaders, miscreants, criminals and embittered bitter grievingory Obi rogues, they gave themselves sense this time

So, Oro is a political tool not a tradition?

Horus:
How will the Naira be redenominated?

It is by dropping two zeros from the currency or moving two decimal places to the left. The name of the national currency will still be the Naira. However, during the transition period, the existing Naira will be referred to as the "Old Naira", and the new one to be called the "New Naira". After the transition period, the word "New" may be dropped.

Source: Central Bank of Nigeria

It will not Improve the value of naira. It is just sugar coating the old naira. It means that if your salary is 15000 it will become 150, which will still get you the same number of dollars as 15000.

Kobojunkieee:
Nonsense!

That same paranoid attitude did not stop Igbos living outside of the South East from rising up to protest all through yesterday and today but somehow it is enough of a reason for why the Igbos living comfortably in the South East chose not to protest. Rubbish! Look, at these many lies you feed yourselves do not help you or anyone else in that country called Nigeria. The moment you all begin to tell yourselves the truth is the moment you will be able to break away from the cage you continue to build around yourselves as a people and a nation. The same applies as far as every other tribe in Nigeria as it is since you all seem to be comfortably wallowing in all of your the many lies you have created around yourselves.

Are other tribes not living in the South East? They too can start the protest in the South East

Now that the other divide has started the protest, credence has been given to the call for the endhunger group to protest without fear. You can't allow one group and stop the other group

We need to follow UK pattern in healthcare, politics, minimum wage, education, employment, social welfare etc.

It is laughable to show us protesters who were jailed in UK while neglecting other things happening in UK

Which NANS faction?

Lol.
Where was the capability tested? Over hype dey worry Russia

b3llo:
It's not Muslim Muslim ticket that brought Tinubu to power but Goodwill and track record. Let someone like El-Rufai pick a southern Muslim and see if he will win any election. Tinubu won by chance because of Peter Obi, if not PDP would have coast to victory. Am a Christian and I support Jagaban

El Ruffai said that you were decieved and you are asserting same.

So, we are swapping Crude oil with refined oil?
Where is the subsidy then?

Ireportlive:
US major fear is exposure of their weaponry's deficiency

How would world biggest arms dealer explain to customers of their defense industrial complex how their missile defense system failed to defend itself

Zero deficiency. Just read and understand.

haybhi1:


You have no idea how much dumb you sound, regarding technicality.
SA population census in 2011 cost 1+ billion, for a population less than 52 million people.
US last population took place 2020, and it cost 14+ billion dollars. Quit revelling in ignorance.

Make una dey use una sense wella na abeg. I'm begging you. No be everything be emotion and attack or backlash-demanding.
Ok, what have you gained in disreputing and libeling your country now? Just likes and shares! Now to what end and use?
Which country on earth is perfect, WannaHowzit will never bring his country's flaws into the light for you, but quick to bring the beauty, an action I don't bemoan.

Please supporting Obi is not supposed to be an outright invitation to forget your use of brain na. Write in a paper and post on your wall, 'I will use my brain henceforth'. You may start observing changes in your thoughts, actions, and life consequently. Ire o.

Not true it cost SA around 109 million dollars

SmartPolician:
Make El-Rufai or Ganduje catch una

Na shut down of their state branch straight!

The suffering worsens after the shut down

Benue citizens support Alia for governor and Peter Obi for president. The rally was for Father Alia and not for Tinubu

Enyimba f c

ALTERNATEID:
This is the same Benue delusional Obidient supporters think Peter Obi will win. I laugh in Spanish.

90@% of those there are "OBIDIENT". I was there also

festacman:
Reno should do research on what Prof. Osinbajo did as ACTING PRESIDENT.

By the way, what were Goodluck Jonathan's achievements as VP.

What were Nemadi Sambo's achievements as VP.

Apart from using privatisation to loot and trying to unseat his Principal Pres. Obasanjo, what were Atikub Abubakar's achievements as VP.

Nonsense!

You should rather mention those. However, Reno asked for any achievement referenced by Osinbajo during his declaration speech

LeoDeKing:
Pantami should talk, in what capacity?

Okay, let's say in his capacity as a minister, then minister of what? Communication and Digital Economy.

Does that sound like minister of information or any other appointment whose job is mainly about talking to public?

Farouk kperogi or whatever you call yourself, go support your athifku in peace, stop disturbing us with these endless and useless articles.

Or better still, go and take leadership position of ipob from where lamidi kwanu stopped before he was tied inside zoo cage. At least your greatest worshippers are those ipob pigs following lamidi kwanu around.

Excerpts

I begin this write-up by saying that I mean no ill-thought towards the Biafran struggle or Igbos in general. What I’ve written here are mainly my personal reflections concerning the Niger Delta, especially with regards to non-Igbo groups and their stake in the Biafran movement which has been rebirthed for some time now. I am not a mouthpiece for the Niger Delta but I believe I’ve been in the Niger Delta long enough to know our problems and our stand. I’ve also interacted with many Niger Deltans to know their stand in the Biafran sttruggle.

When I use the term Niger Delta, I am referring to the region covering Delta, Edo, Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom, and Cross River states. However, I understand that the region also covers Ondo, Imo, and Abia states. I’m not concerned with the latter because they are either Igbos or Yorubas and have their own struggles. The ethnic groups within my coverage include Urhobo-Isoko, Bini, Esan, Itsekiri, Ijaw-Epie-Ogbia, Ogoni, Afemai, Efik-Annang-Eket-Oron-Ibibio, Ogoja, Ejagham, and other groups in Cross River North. Ikwerre, Ukwuani, Ika, Aniocha, Ogba, and other Igboid groups, are not included. Historically, Biafra covered all the Niger Delta states EXCEPT Delta and Ondo states. This fact must be emphasised.

Pro-Biafrans are welcome to debate and address my issues in a civil manner. I understand that most pro-Biafrans resort to insults when salient issues are addressed.

Please let’s set a good precedence from hereon.


1. Biafra may not be better for Niger Deltans because Niger Deltans may end up living one form of subjugation for another. The argument Igbos have made for their freedom is the desire to be free from Hausa-Yoruba domination. That argument also applies to the average Niger Deltan. Igbo, no doubt, will be the major ethnic group if Biafra is actualised. Ijaws may have a stake due to their numbers. What about the Ogonis, Urhobo-Isokos, Itsekiris, Efiks, etc? Where will they fit in at the national level? The sad reality is that another Nigeria will just be made manifest and resentments will build up. What will really be the fate of minorities? Will they fare better in Biafra or alone? In Nigeria, big groups such as Hausa, Yoruba and Igbo checkmate each other’s excesses very well. Who will checkmate that of Igbos in the new nation?


2. The issue of annexation comes to play. For so long, e-Biafrans have annexed Niger Delta as part of the proposed nation. The map below shows us what Biafrans have drawn to constitute the new nation:?
If we judge from this map, it means all groups in the Niger Delta have been annexed. My question is whether the leaders of these groups have been consulted before the annexation was done. I, for one, know that Urhobo-Isoko and Efik-Ibibio leaders have not approved of Biafra neither have anybody in these regions declared Biafra. So how and why were they included in the proposed map? Little things like this bring distrust and I understand that many of these non-Igbo regions have disowned the map and pledged allegiance to Nigeria. The declaration by the Delta State government is a case in point. I see this as forceful annexation. The so-called e-Biafrans have also not done much in calming the nerves of the people of the annexed regions. I’ve seen comments such as “if you don’t like it, go and stay in Sokoto”, “all land in the South is Biafraland”, etc. Is it not ironic that a group of people who want freedom want to annexe others?


3. What languages will be made the official languages of the new nation? I have seen several posts by e-Biafrans where Igbo was proposed as the official language of the new republic. What then will happen to other languages such as Urhobo, Isoko, Okpe, Efik, Ibibio, Oron, Ogoni, Eleme, Okrika, Kalabari, Bini, Esan, etc? Will they die off because of Igbo? Certainly NOT! If English is made the official language, the Igbo majority factor will kick in. If your name isn’t Chukwuemeka or Oliseh, Amarachi or Nneka, etc, you won’t get any appointment nor shall you be recognised. These are things we can’t deny. We are very ethnocentric in Africa.


4. What and what have Igbo nation done for Niger Deltans to gain their trust? Every day I see Igbo youths making enemies where there were none. They constantly use the agency of the internet to sprout controversy, hurl insults at dissenters and make unfounded claims. There is this general air of mistrust for Igbos by some Niger Deltans, particularly by Urhobo-Isoko and Bini people. What have Igbos done to checkmate this? Has any Igbo leader or group extended the hand of friendship to the Niger Deltans. Mistrust cannot be wished away. Most Niger Deltans would rather follow Hausas as slaves than follow Igbos as kings. This is the real reality and truthfully, Igbos caused this.

5. Who will lead the new nation? Obviously, Nnamdi Kanu, their hero, has fought tooth and nails for Biafra and he is currently cooling off in jail. If Biafra comes today, who will be the interim leader and what modalities are in place for subsequent leaders to be elected? Igbos have been the only ones fighting for Biafra since time immemorial with a handful of other groups here and there. Will Igbos allow other groups to rule over them? Will they allow an Urhobo man to be President, for instance? This is not a case of mere wishing. We have to understand that Niger Delta groups MAY NEVER BE ALLOWED TO RULE BIAFRA IF IT IS ACTUALISED.

6. Still on the issue of leaders, are the new leaders going to fall from the skies or they are simply going to change addresses from Abuja to Enugu. If so, what will change in the new nation? It is not arguable that Igbo national leaders are the most corrupt persons in Nigeria. If these same people are the ones to rule the new nation then there is no hope because corruption will be so rife that the economy of the new nation will shut down like a knocked engine. If we argue that new and younger leaders will arise, we still have the issue of who fought for Biafra to contend with. Most pro-Biafrans will not allow someone who sat at the periphery of the struggle to just come and waltz power away from the “heroes” of Biafra. If this is true then we will not have a proper democracy in Biafra.


8. Will Biafra be a utopia? The impression that e-Biafrans give is that Biafra will be perfect and we all know for a fact that this is not true. Apart from the issue of corruption and sentimentalism that have been addressed, we still have the issue of development. Where will money be generated from to develop the nation? In the whole of the proposed Biafra, only Port Harcourt and Onitsha are economically viable cities. Where will the investors come from? Why should they invest in a volatile country? Only in Warri, we have Ijaw, Itsekiri and Urhobo at loggerheads, imagine what would happen to the whole nation. Secondly, I am sure that no Niger Deltan will allow his “oil” to be used to develop Enugu like what happened with Abuja, and is still happening today. Niger Deltans are getting wiser and by the time the new nations are formed, matters that border on oil, wealth distribution and infrastructural development will be raised.


9. The current structure of the proposed nation, as shown in the map earlier embedded, favour Igbos with more states. Urhobo has one, Efik-Ibibio has two, Itsekiri has none, etc. How will this be addressed? Certainly, every ethnic nationality will want adequate representation and so the structure on that map will never work.


10. Last, but not the least, is the issue of referendum. Some Biafrans are already calling for a referendum which will involve all parts of the proposed nation. I am pretty sure how this referendum will turn out. However, for the sake of being hypothetical, let us imagine that some ethnic groups/states vote against Biafra by the majority, what will be their fate at the end of the day? Secondly, will the result of such a referendum be true and honest? I understand that electoral malpractice forms a part of our identity. How are we going to get a true reflection of people’s thoughts? Thirdly, if states and ethnic groups do decide to vote for Biafra, what mechanisms are in place to contain Igbophobia, Igbomania, Igbocentrism, Igbo hegemony, Landgrabbing, and all issues that minorities have raised?
Above are the reasons why I feel that Niger Deltans will NOT subscribe to the Biafran movement. I have been very practical, philosophical and hypothetical in my approach. I do not speak for any group or persons but I present these issues for the pro-Biafrans to address. Niger Deltans can raise more issues that I have not raised. Finally, it should be noted that I expect insults directed at my person by e-warriors and keyboard mercenaries, as usual, but I won’t pleasure such persons with answers or altercations. If you raise good points, we can discuss like intellectuals.


Long Live Niger Delta!!

NLC and TUC should reject this outrightly.
Minimum wage as the name imply, simple means minimum payable to a worker in a country. It should be a national thing, while states can add to it.
The sponsor is either ignorant or hate the people.

Way to go. Time for reflections and spiritual refreshment.

In some churches, hashtag I stand with pastor.... Would have been trending.

If this illegal action was perpetrated in the South, Army, air force, navy, immigration, police, SARS, SWAT, civil defence, plus the media would have been deployed to the Southern State. The South East governors forum will support, Ohaneze will issue a statement, PANDEF will condemned the action, other southern comrades will support taking lives to make a point. The Southern youths will be called hoodlums / miscreants, Innocent youths will be killed.
If a cow is killed, FG will condemn it. There will uproar , herdsmen will go on rampage and maim people which will be supported by power.
However, today people's businesses are attacked and destroyed without any condemnation or protection by the government. It started in Kano and now Kaduna.

Chai, Nnamdi KANU is sound and constructive. He marshalled out facts, very erudite and skilled in speaking.
Hate him or love him, the guy is good

oz4real83:
Another format . You all are not different from Hushpuppi. GEJ had no shoes, PMB couldn't afford the N25m APC's presidential form and had to take loan from the bank, this is somebody whose children were studying in expensive schools abroad. This is not a Nigerian election, it involves other countries whose citizens are not as gullible as most Nigerians. Madam NOI was the only minister that insisted that she MUST be paid in dollars during her time as minister under OBJ and GEJ. Madam NOI, please go and bring out money from where u have been hiding them and hire PR team(s), we are tired of financing the expensive lifestyles of yours, APC and PDP politicians.

PR firm for WTO campaign is not a group like BMO bro. Google World PR firms and their charges. The result will shock you. They not poverty alleviation program for youths on the internet with the commission to insult people.

MuttleyLaff:


Whats your problem? Why are you so ever truculent, hmm?
The guy OP, is talking about try to be sensitive whenever drawing up past escapades because they might be people in the audience still trying to deal with the past of theirs they aren't proud of and so shoved to the remotest part of their mind so not to relive or remember it and you've gone gung ho asking him, if its wrong for followers of Jesus Christ to admit they too had a sin-fillled past like every one else.

How you managed to overlook or ignore the intro "There should be a limit to what a preacher says about his past life especially while preaching..." is baffling. Limit, fyi, means boundary(ies)

There is no limit to confession. There is no limit when it comes to mentioning the past sins of a preacher as an illustration to how bad he/she was in the past but saved by grace. Hallelujah!.

Some in the audience might think/feel that they have gone so deep in several sins that they can't be forgiven . such stories from preachers show that God can forgive any kind of sin
