I pity Nigeria, terrorists are having swell times feasting and celebrating with photo shots while the presidency and prime politician are busy making headlines with their political campaign interests. Oh Naija, life is now as cheap as that of a grass. Who do us this harm oo �♂️�♂️�♂️ |

"Some churches were listed for attack between now and the end of December, though the churches that would be attacked according to the Fulani group that wrote the letter are located on the outskirts of the town, but we believe it's just a trick. So the police knows these perpetrators of evil, invariably the government knows then all too (the quoted texts in bold say that all). My advise: Christians should be very cautious. They should raise men that can bear up arms to resist these evil men if necessary. They should never rely on the police for protection because they will fail again as usual. Protect yourselves please A word is enough for the wise. 1 Like |

tutudesz: I am Ukwani through and through and I know my origin. My languages is Igbo, my culture is Igbo and everything about me is Igbo. I cannot be deceived by Nigeria anymore. Let every Deltan deny the Igbos, I will forever go with them. If Nigeria disintegrates today and the Deltans refuse to go with Biafra, I will migrate there. I hate to be called a Nigerian, this country has no future that is why they tactically withdrew history from our school curricula 6 Likes |

Baba, I fear you badly. You mentioned that heists can only succeed into the villa if only there's a "hungry" one among them. That fully supports my claim, there are so many moles in there now oo. Again, don't forget that sometime ago, the Red Chamber security was bridge and the Mace was snatched out of the premises. Nigeria is Nigeria oo, there are a lot of surprises in this nation oo.

If you like tear the page out of your phone if you can. The message is well passed and understood. Lagos is not Biafra and Biafra has no issues with Lagos. More so they are only defending their fathers land and not attacking regions or people. So don't ever dream of them attacking Lagos, QED. Simplyleo: |

hybrid11: And I marvel most dangerously at you that disbelieve it even after there have been confirmations from the "ASO VILLA QUARTERS". If you understand securing well you will know that our security systems on Nigeria can be highly compromised. They only show forces in every security cases especially when they are outside with evidence of their less than 20% intelligence and civility very visible. We really need to wake up as a country or better still go our separate ways or restructure. Only then can the best of every region come out. 1 Like |

Frankly, I think this "rude attitude" thing is '5 & 6' with all Nigerian public services, especially those that are runned directly or indirectly by the government. The Police, Power Distribution Companies, Civil Servants, to mention but a few are not left out. These workers see it as a norm now maybe because they are not been punished for behaving in those ways. Anyways, I will pin it to a rotten system where people get jobs on the ground of money they paid for it or the person that they know. That's why quality public human relations have been thrown into the thrash. |

You can wag your smelling mouth here a thousand times and say whatever you want. I've always followed and read your post and comments and most times after reading them, i always wonder if you ever think from your brain or anus. How quick you really forget that the whole shooting drama started from the "army never went there; to they fire into the air; and then they only fire rubber bullets". How far do you allow your judgment to be this beclouded by either stupid political fanatism or tribalism or being paid a peal nut that makes you always defend rubbish and drag the nation more into the mud? Now on your part its wrong for DJ Switch and the youths to ask for better governance and an end to police brutality, right? I bet you, the punishment God has reserved for people like is unfathomable.

[color=#006600][/color] Firstly, permit me to sound it clear that Nigeria's problems cannot be solved in few days. However, I strongly believe that there is nothing wrong in Nigeria that cannot be made right again. Nevertheless, if I am President of Nigeria, I will proactive champion a rebirth of the Nigeria of our dreams. I will focus my first 2 years in office majorly on two key areas: Agriculture and Power. I will make agriculture so lucrative that a lot of our teeming unemployed youths will opt for careers in Agriculture thereby making Nigeria a center that can produce almost every thing that we feed on and also creating vast export hub that will boost our economy and redirect attention from this mono economy that we operate today. I will influence and lobby the national assembly to make laws that will take away Power generation from the exclusive lists of the Federal Government. That way there will be massive competition in power generation and distribution as every state local governments and individuals can generate there own power and sell to their citizens at. That will make power supply very affordable and accessible which will solve power problem for ever. For the other years following, I will focus more on Road construction, infrastructure and education development. Also, lobbying for laws/bills that will grant resources control to states will be very paramount. With well articulated plans well strategized, all this can be achieved and together we can rebuild the Nigeria �� of our dream again. God bless FRN. |

That's a big, fat LIE. There's no Boko Haram in Nigeria again, not even in any State too. Moreso, Bututai and his garrison of soldiers are all based in Bornu State with all the guns, APCs and automated gun mounted Helicopter fighters. Haba, Boko Haram cannot dare anywhere again there nah, besides they have been technically defeated long ago. 1 Like |

It’s A Lie: Igboland Is Not Landlocked By Aloy Ejimakor Ndigbo are undoubtedly an indigenous people presently lying within Nigeria. So, international law will surely come into play if a conflict arises out of Nigeria’s persistent institutional resistance to granting a seaport to Igboland. It’s often said that a lie told so many times, if unchallenged, may - in course of time - begin to pass for the truth. One of such is the terrible lie, institutionally purveyed since the end of the Civil War, to the effect that Igboland is landlocked or that it has no access to the sea. The purpose of this essay, therefore, is to debunk that lie with some simple historical and topographical evidence that are even in plain view, if you care to dig or do some physical exploration of your own. Suffice it to say that it is a profound tragedy that entire generations of the immediate post-War Igbos never bordered to check but seemingly accepted this brazen institutional falsehood, largely intended to taunt the Igbo and put them down. A few that knew it to be false just didn’t care anymore. That History was banned since the end of the Civil War made it worse, plus the fact that most people don’t take physical Geography that serious anymore, otherwise they would have known that Abia, Imo and Anambra States have varying short-distance paths to the Atlantic Ocean through Imo, Azumiri and Niger Rivers. It’s not really rocket science, as you can easily confirm this if you know how to read Google Earth; or conquer your fear of swamp snakes and walk through these areas on foot. There are also many other hardly explored waterways and slithering tributaries, including the remote reaches of Oguta Lake and Oseakwa River in Ihiala (Imo State) that meandered through Igbo-delta wetlands to the Southeastern ends of the Atlantic waterfront. These rivers have varying lengths of short navigational paths to the Atlantic, and in some cases, are far shorter nautically (and even on footpath) than the Portharcourt, Calabar and Ibaka seaports are to their side of the Atlantic. Many of these pathways, including particularly the ones from the outer reaches of Imo and Azumiri Rivers terminate at the Atlantic at no more than 15 to 30 Nautical miles to the beachhead. To put it in lay language, one nautical mile equals 1.8 kilometers. Thus, the contiguity of Southeast (not even the greater Igboland) to the Atlantic is less nautical miles than the Atlantic is to the seaports in Calabar, Onne, Ibaka, Lagos and Portharcourt. If you discount the territories excised from Igboland during State creations and the damnable boundary adjustments, it will be far less. To be sure, Ikwerre land or Igweocha which bears the greater portions of the Portharcourt seaport was dredged up to 50 miles to the Atlantic front through the Bonny River. Onne seaport was dredged up to 60 Miles to the Atlantic and Calabar seaport was dredged 45 nautical miles to the Atlantic. Ibaka seaport is about 30 nautical miles to the Atlantic and the Lagos seaports dredged up to about 50 nautical miles to the Atlantic. Compare all these to Obuaku in Abia State, which is only 25 nautical miles to the Atlantic from the confluence of Imo and Azumiri River which itself separately lies not more than 30 nautical miles to the Atlantic beachfront. The less obvious one is the little-known Oseakwa River in Ihiala (Imo State) which is mere 18 nauticals to the Atlantic, all with its 65 feet of natural depth, unarguably comparable to no other River in Nigeria. Additionally, what is geopolitically known as Igboland today is far smaller than what it was and legally supposed to be. As far back as 1856, Baikie - one of the earliest and credible Geographers of ancient Nigeria, had this to say - “Igbo homeland, extends east and west, from the Old Kalabar river to the banks of the Kwora, Niger River, and possesses also some territory at Aboh, an Igbo clan, to the west-ward of the latter stream. On the north it borders on Igara, Igala and A'kpoto, and it is separated from the sea only by petty tribes, all of which trace their origin to this great race" (Baikie, William Balfour, published with a sanction of Her Majesty's Government in 1856). But with that infamous post-War abandoned property policy and the egregious institutional injustices in boundary adjustments and the widespread anti-Igbo gerrymandering, Igbos physically and psychologically lost their vested ancestral lands, all to the point of not caring anymore about their historical contiguity to the Atlantic, which their ancestors beheld and called the ‘Great Sea’. The psychological beat-down got so bad that some of the descendants of these Igbo ancestors (nearest to the Atlantic and now lying outside Southeast) are no longer sure whether they are Igbo or not. The worst injustice was In 1976 when the Justice Nasir Boundary Adjustment Commission made a serious and targeted agenda of carving out core Igboland territories into some neighboring States of the South-South. But they didn’t quite make an absolute success of it. They missed the southernmost Southeast lands that possess Rivers that meandered through slices of Igbo-friendly South-South territories and ended up at the Atlantic, thus unwittingly placing Igboland and its right of access to the sea under the canons of customary international law. As it stands, international law of the sea guarantees Igboland (whether it remains Nigerian territory or not) unhindered access to the nearest sea (in this case: the Atlantic) peacefully by the many short-distance rivers, waterways and tributaries that originated from Igboland but ultimately washed into the Atlantic through contiguous South-South territories. For avoidance of doubt, there’s particularly the Obuaku confluence in Ukwa West (Abia State) that flows through Ikot Abasi in Akwa Ibom State before expanding out and washing into the near-reaches of the Atlantic. And the River Niger which ultimately joined the Atlantic through a vast network of hardly explored creeks and mangrove swamps that abut the Bight of Bonny in the South-South. Nigeria is subject to the International Law of the Sea and is therefore bound to abide by its provisions, should the need arise in a scenario of persistent sovereign oppression of an identifiable indigenous group. The others are the United Nations Treaty of the Sea and the African Union Treaties and Conventions on the Sea, including particularly the African Charter on Human and People’s Rights, which Nigeria ratified and domesticated in 1983. The pertinent provisions are mostly embedded in tlying within Nigeria. So, international law will surely come into play if a conflict arises out of Nigeria’s persistent institutional resistancehe copious provisions relating to the collective economic and commercial rights of indigenous peoples lying within the Treaty nations. Ndigbo are undoubtedly an indigenous people presently to granting a seaport to Igboland.

[b][/b]Marrying from your tribe has its own benefits. That does not mean that there are no negatives too. However, you really need to consider being happily married to the woman you love first. Whichever one you want to settle on, first make real peace with your parents, know their reasons and know what best you have to do, then take your decision as a man ooo |

I hate to insult elders but I think Mr Tony Momoh thinks from his anus. Now talking about USA and the demonstrations across the nation, did Momoh care to see the underlying reasons behind the demonstrations? Is he trying to justify the wrongs demonstrated by our shameless government/leaders that enjoy cooking up excuses to cover their wrongdoings? Well, I'm not surprised he said this coz most of our elder statesmen like him are nothing but "Psychophants and Ass-licking". They will always stop at nothing to define the wrongs of our clueless leaders and the gross demonstration of impunities all to continue sustaining the their paychecks. I pity Nigeria. I hope Mr Momoh and his friends band cliques will swallow their prides to apologize to Nigerians when we start seeing the effects of that 'careless attitude' manifested during that burial. |

Mr Pastor, you are obviously showing to Nigerians the kind of SELFISH and INHUMANE person that you are. Clergies and Churches in developed nations are sending relief materials and mobilizing their church members (medical practitioners among them) to help in the fight against the pandemic. What have you contributed in your own way? A man of God in the person of Pastor Paul Eneche has shown a good example by donating medical supplies and equipments, what have you done in your own capacity? All these 'the word of God became flesh' pastors like this Giwa of a person should bury their heads in shame now. They should be mouth muted if they cannot help. 1 Like
