I swear to God my guy
Last year i dey my room for 2nd floor wey i de live

Na para i para for those ppl eh
D main wahala v say dem nor respect privacy
Even if u dey toilet for tenth floor u go shock as person go open d toulet door say hin wan share word of God

Nah wetin people nor dey understand. Oyibo love privacy and when you dey worry about house rent, baby food or heartbreak or shit dey catch you nah then you go see J witness. Their movement and loud speakers for Nigeria church nah same thing.

Believe me if these people knock your door by 6.00am when you dey prepare to go hustle money for house rent, then you will agree they are extremists.

michaelwilli:
I suspect Stephanie otobo. Lol. Dey haf com for dadi frizz.

Sorry, Stephanie has nothing to do with this. Don't be confused with the baldness. Freeze baldness is due to wisdom from not being a sheeple while the other is from always ending up in the back. I will too be bald if I end up in the back of okeke. Such a*s has got clipper in it.

Keneeby:

You are happy becos he is pastor. Now, what are your benefits? What are you gaining? You just get excited becos a pastor got into trouble. As you are happy look at ur back more accusations is coming for you. I don't know where you will run to.

And you think if I support him I won't still be accused? Sorry I am not a fan of god of men. If they are so powerful then Nigeria would have been the best country to live in. Very religious so ungodly people. And my benefits is that the fraud will be exposed.

May God change their mindset

i feel ashamed... Most times you see brilliant chaps struggling to make it... After coming out with first class. Handshake is the reward for their hardwork.. The job ain't forthcoming..they go for lesser job.. Thereby wasting their talents

The evidence is seen all over the country my dear. The only resources it can export is politics and celebrity. And yes another, tribalism. A bbnaija participant get contracts why a potential economic changer get 250 Naira.

fatymore:
Seriously our priority is bad in this country... Academicians are not giving standing ovation as this... If only first class students are given automatic jobs.. It would motivate young children to read more.. Rather they all want to become singers..dancers.. Yahoo guys.. Bbnaija mates... Cos it pays faster

Well it's a big shame dear. It's the reason why an average Nigeria is so terrible about posterity. 98% of Canadian are educated, Finland is about 100% and you can see their economy and citizens. I have stopped talking since no one want to listen. And we wonder why most of our brilliant minds don't reside in Nigeria but are employed by other organizations abroad to grow their economy.

Good one Otobo. Sue that bald man. You think is every fornication that God will punish you? Nah he will leave it for man to do. Otobo I believed you since the day you spoke and brought evidence.

Yeah, when you get to lick the the balls of our politicians you will look good from the stolen money. And don't come here to tell me crap because market women earn more than Nollywood actors and actresses.

koladebrainiac:
OK I AM SORRY BRO. WHO EVER MADE THIS POST IS VERY BIASED. YOU WOILL AGREE WITH ME THAT GEORGE BUSH N ROOSEVELT ARE WAR CRIMINALS THAT SHOULD BE ON THE LIST. AMERICA CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY IN HIROSHIMA AND IRAQ SHOULD NOT BE SWEPT UNDER CARPET. I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THAT GOWON WAR. AND I AM NOT BLAMING OJUKWU TOO COS THEY BOTH MADE A CHOICE TO GO TO WAR AGAINST EACH OTHER. AND BOTH SIDES SUSTAINED CASUALTY .

If there was a fair panel then half of the US president will be in the Hague for war crime. Yes I am aware of how Bush and Tony Blair tricked their parliament with a botch nuclear weapon about to be released by Iraq which cause the wrongful invasion of Iraq and death of their president. Life they say it's unfair but the people in this list should not be overlooked because others were.

DocHMD:
For those saying Gowon should not be on that list unfortunately for you the list is documented on foreign websites and not Igbo-owned.

www.popten.net/2010/05/top-ten-most-evil-dictators-of-all-time-in-order-of-kill-count/

That's what I have been trying to tell them.

DocHMD:


If Ojukwu didn't defend his people there would have emirates all over the East. It was good he gave them hell too. More of gowon's hausa and yoruba rapists and vandals died compared to Biafrans soldiers. That instilled some level of fear (and respect) of the Igbo by the nigerian caliphate. The fear that still persists till today.

Yes more of the Nigerian soldiers died but the civilians casualties in Biafra was much due to starvation. If both men were not so insane no casualty would have been recorded. That's why I still call crude oil the "devil's juice".

junketer:
Op, all the countries you mention have sorted out what caused their problems and have been peaceful for decades. Advanced technologically except nigeria. What caused the war in 1967 is still happening and technologically, we are going backwards.

That's because the country wasn't built in a solid foundation. The glue of this county is Oil same thing that started the war and until there's no Oil, the country will remain same.

No need investigating as he's GUILTY. 97% of Nigeria pastor are perverts who use the name of God as excuse to molest female members.

As nah South Africa then the case is same as in Nigeria, nothing will be done because those people gullibility is king compared to Nigerians.

Good but not wow. A prototype of this has already been in existence since 1880 so it's not an invention.
By the way this is a poor prototype and it won't attract any serious investors.

koladebrainiac:
gowon should be on the list. i guess u igbo and still haunted by the civil war defeat. Ojukwu declared war on Nigeria even matched to Ore with the aim of capturing Lagos the power base of Nigeria. He lost,defeated. In war we do not determine who is right only who is left. but in the case of Satlin he was on slaughtering mission against defenseless subjects. guy abeg remove Gowon. what about Ghekins Khan of MONGOL EMPIRE 12000 AD. i DONT KNOW WHAT MOTIVE YOU HAVE BEHIND THIS POST BUT GUY DO U EVEN KNOW WHAT DICTATORSHIP IS?? WHAT ABOUT AMERICA AND THE DISPLACEMENT OF Afghanistan AND IRAQ BY GEORGE BUSH ? WHAT ABOUT THE BOMBING OF HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI?DO U KNOW MILLIONS OF INNOCENT PEOPLE THAT LOST THEIR LIVES?

SPARE ME BRO

Bro I wasn't the one who complied this list as it was probably written against presidents or head of states whose tenures were ridden with mass death. Whether Gowon was a dictator or not he supervise one of the bloody war in Nigeria history. Both him and late Ojukwu were guilt as I take no side.

Hideki:
I did nothing wrong nigga!!! I was sentenced to death unjustly! The sad truth is, it is those those who lose the war that are called all kinds of name and are tried!!! Have you seen anyone who wins a war and gets tried for war crimes? I fought bravely for Japan in nanking, I honoured Japan by leading the Imperial Army strategically. Then I lost...In war people die...How many Nigerian Leaders were tried after the civil war? Are you saying no war crime was committed? Win and Live, Lose and Die.....

Lol. I forgot there was someone whose name was of a dictator. lol. Well leaders in Nigeria haven't been procedures because the only noticeable crime was the civil war and the west was for Gowon so they can't prosecute him else some dirty secret about the west collabo during the war will be out in public. Secondly, the ogoni massacre by OBJ is more of a sure bet to get him prosecuted but the Nigeria government is uninteresting and they are also shielding their own. After all birds of feathers flock together.

1. MAO ZEDONG (49-78 MILLION DEATHS)

Breakdown: Policy reforms like the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution.

Mao Zedong was a Chinese revolutionary, political theorist, and communist leader who led the People’s Republic of China. Mao, while controversial, is still widely considered a savior of the nation. I did a semester abroad in China in 2001 after falling in love with its history, and was surprised in my conversations that many people thought Mao had done 70% – 80% good things. During his first five years from 1949 – 53 he is said to have systematically killed between 4 to 6 million people by sentencing them to die or by sending them to “reform through labor” camps. He organized mass repressions, established execution quotas, and defended his actions in these early years as necessary for securing power for “The People’s Republic of China”.

His social programs the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution are two of the most ill-fated, poorly named, initiatives ever. The first was an effort to rapidly industrialize China. His focus was on making China a premier exporter of steel, and to this end he asked everybody to make it. The problem was it got many citizens to make smelting shops in their backyards. Not only was the steel of little value, but it was made from everything lying around the house including their own cooking supplies! Without the tools to make food, no money coming in from the steel, and no money to survive ~ a lot of people starved to death. The estimates on this program alone are 20 million deaths! Think about that number. Really think about it. Then ask yourself… why would you EVER let someone back into power after such an insanely bad decision.Well, they took the reigns away from him for a short time.

In the interim Mao started the socialist education movement. He aimed the concept at young ones who would eventually wrest the power away from the older guard. By 1964 this movement was renamed the “four cleanups movement” whose goal was cleansing politics, economics, ideas, and organization of “reactionaries”. This led to the formation of the “Red Guards” who were organized to punish intellectuals and take out Mao’s political adversaries. The Cultural Revolution was now underway, and its overriding mission was to abolish: Old Customs, Old Culture, Old Habits, and Old Ideas. Something Mao fervently believed in was that destruction and chaos could bring re-birth. So he told his followers to destroy buildings, sacred objects, talk back to ones elders, punish them, turn them in, and kill those who did not agree. By 1968 things were starting to look pretty good for Mao all over again, and so he put into place the decade long “Down to the Countryside Movement” which forced young intellectuals to move out to the country to become farmers. Sadly, the people he pushed out there were the same Red Guards who had helped him get power. Estimates of the death toll are between 40,000 – 7 million depending on who you ask.

Finally, there is the 100 flowers movement which just needs an abbreviated mention here. Mao asked people to come forth and tell him how he should govern China. Intellectuals and liberals bit at the chance to tell him what they really thought, and were encouraged by the Communist party to do so. Then in a sudden change of heart, or an incredibly crafty mission to out his haters, the government persecuted 500,000 of them who were considered to be “dangerous thinkers”.

Mao is essentially like that girlfriend/boyfriend who keeps on taking a shit on you, but is so damn charming you hardly notice. His policies and political purges from 1949 to 1976 caused the deaths of 49 to 78 million people.

THE MORAL OF THE STORY IS ~
Let’s stop allowing evil political dictators to take office. And if we do have someone bad in office we can find better ways to get them out than murdering them, wars, and aggressive confrontations.

2. JOZEF STALIN (23 MILLION DEATHS)

Breakdown: The great purges and Ukraine’s famine.

Jozef Stalin was the first Secretary of the Communist Party from 1922 – 1953. After Lenin’s death in 1924, he became the leader of the Soviet Union. Stalin didn’t take long in launching a new economy that screwed up food production across the country so bad it caused massive famine. Between 1922-23 it reached such catastrophic proportions everything went to shit. In Ukraine this dark period is known as Holodomor. Its widely believed that Soviet policies caused the famine there and was designed as an attack on Ukrainian nationalism. Estimates on the total number of casualties within Soviet Ukraine range from 2.6 million to 10 million! During the late 1930s Stalin launched another wonderfully titled initiative called the Great Purge (also known as the “Great Terror”). It was a paranoid campaign to kill off the people who opposed him, and his targets were often executed.

In 1939 Stalin agreed to a non-aggression pact with the Nazis. Eventually Germany violated the pact, the Soviet Union joined the allies, and they racked up 23.9 million deaths (the largest death toll in the war).

3. ADOLF HITLER (17 MILLION DEATHS)

Breakdown: Concentration camps and civilians in WWII.

Adolf Hitler was the leader of the Nazi Party. He was the absolute dictator of Germany from 1934 to 1945. He gained support by promoting values like German nationalism and anti-semitism. Hitler was appointed chancellor in 1933 and began the Third Reich. Hitler was power hungry as all hell, hated the shit out of Jews (and others), and wanted hegemony in Europe. The militarization that was needed to complete such a lofty goal led to the outbreak of World War II. Nazi forces engaged in the systematic murder of as many as 17 million civilians, an estimated six million of whom were Jews, and 1.5 million Romanis.

4. LEOPOLD II OF BELGIUM (2-15 MILLION DEATHS)

Breakdown: Created a colony called the “Congo Free State”, enslaved its people, and forced them into labor plants.

Leopold II was the King of the Belgians, and believed in colonialism. He thought acquiring colonies overseas was essential to a great country and was always scheming. The problem was Belgium really didn’t care, and so Leopold went into business for himself. He started a company that seemed like it was doing good called the International African Society. A year later he used that company to travel to Congo, laid claim to a plot of land 14 times the size of Belgium, and made 14 countries agree (USA included) that he was free to rule it with his own private militia. He then forced the indigenous populations into forced labor, created a bustling rubber industry, and abused his workers grievously.

Missionary John Harris on returning from Congo said:
“I have just returned from a journey inland to the village of Insongo Mboyo. The abject misery and utter abandon is positively indescribable.”

Estimates of the death toll range from two to fifteen million which could all have been avoided if 14 countries didn’t hand him the keys to the car!

5. HIDEKI TOJO (5 MILLION DEATHS)

Breakdown: Waged unprovoked wars against China, USA, Netherlands, and France.

Hideki Tojo was a general in the Imperial Japanese Army. He assumed the position of Prime Minister and held Army Minister concurrently. As if that wasn’t enough he also held other major positions like Home Minister, Foreign Minister, Education Minister, and Commerce Minister. His major contributions to education were teaching militaristic and nationalist indoctrination. His version of homeland security was approving eugenics measures which essentially made a distinction between pure blood and mixed blood Japanese families.

During World War II Tojo started winning battles and the public loved him for it. He really bought into the Nazi Kool-aid, and held steadfastly with Germany. When the tide turned, and he began losing, it was devastating. Eventually he went into seclusion. He was tried for war crimes and found guilty of waging wars of aggression, wars in violation of international law, and waging unprovoked war against many countries. Not to mention ordering, authorizing, and permitting inhumane treatment of Prisoners of War.

6. ISMAIL ENVER PASHA (2.5 MILLION DEATHS)

Breakdown: 1,200,000 Armenians (1915) + 350,000 Greek Pontians and 480,000 Anatolian Greeks (1916-22) + 500,000 Assyrians (1915-20)

He began his career as a Turkish military officer and leader in the Young Turk revolution. Eventually he rose to power and led the Ottoman Empire in both Balkan Wars and World War I. As a war minister Enver was not very useful, and was defeated over and over. His crushing loss at the Battle of Sarikamish needed a scapegoat, and that’s when he decided to blame Armenians for the failure. That is what began what is now known as the Armenian Genocide. The word “genocide” was coined to describe this event.

Etymology from Wikipedia:
Coined in 1943 by Raphael Lemkin (1900–1959), a Polish–Jewish legal scholar, to describe what the Turkish government (ca 1915–18) perpetrated against the Armenian people, now called the Armenian Genocide. From the stem of Ancient Greek (génos), “race, kind” or Latin “tribe, clan” (-cide).

7. POL POT (1.7 MILLION DEATHS)

Breakdown: Forced city folk to relocate to farms and forced them into hard labor.

Pol Pot was the leader of the communist movement in Cambodia. He attempted to “cleanse” the country and it resulted in the death of an estimated 1.7 to 2.5 million people. There was an interesting policy going around called agrarian collectivization which he put into practice in the late 1970’s. Basically it forced city folk to head out to the farms to do some labor and vice versa for farmers. As you might guess, and hindsight is 20/20, neither group was very good at their new jobs. Pol didn’t stop at enslaving his own people though. He also didn’t feed them well, gave them little medical care, and executed many of them. The net result was killing off approximately 1/5 of the Cambodian population!

8. KIM IL SUNG (1.6 MILLION DEATHS)

Breakdown: Unpopular among his people Kim used the U.S. as a scapegoat and forced the country to believe in his delusion or else.

Before our very own Kim Jong-Il was his murderous father Kim Il Sung who led North Korea in a terrible direction. He fought for a command economy that allowed the government to make all decisions for the country. For various reasons the people never seemed to love the man, and so his hold on power was tenuous at best. Like most crazies he blamed somebody else, in this case the USA, and said they had spread disease throughout its population. He also pulled a Stalin, and had large-scale purges. His underlying reason was that it would scare people into believing he was telling the truth. Kim’s purge was a little different than Stalin’s though in that there were no trials. During his tenure prison camps sprung up all over the country to contain the ever growing masses of people against Kim Il Sung.

9. MENGISTU HAILE MARIAM (400,000 – 1.5 MILLION DEATHS)

Breakdown: As president of Ethiopia and colonel of “the Derg” (communist militia) Mengitsu systematically killed those against him in the “Red Terror” campaign.

Mengistu Haile Mariam is (as in still alive) a politician who presided over Ethiopia from 1974 to 1991. The way he got into power was by smothering the previous president Haile Selassie although he has denied those rumors. His biggest claim to fame is the Ethiopian Red Terror which was a campaign of repression led by the Derg (communist militia in Ethiopia).

In his introductory speech Mengitsu yelled, “Death to counterrevolutionaries! Death to the EPRP!” Then he took three bottles filled with blood and threw them to the ground.

It was an auspicious beginning to say the least. Thousands were killed and found dead on the streets in the years that followed. Much of the murdering can be attributed to the friendly neighborhood watch there known as “Kebeles”. As if killing innocents wasn’t enough they would then charge the family a tax to return the dead body to them. The tax was aptly named “the wasted bullet”! Are you serious Mengitsu? However there was an even more gruesome fate of being left on the street where wild hyenas would fight over the dead. The campaign has been described as one of the worst mass murders ever in Africa. Mengitsu is even known to have garroted people to death.

10. YAKUBU GOWON (1.1 MILLION DEATHS)

Breakdown: 1 million civilians on the wrong side of a blockade caused by a war of secession in Nigeria and 100,000 soldiers who died in that war.

It starts as many sad stories do with precious beautiful oil. It had been found in the Niger delta where tensions were already high between the Eastern region (led by Ojukwu) and the rest of the country (governed by Yakubu). A dummy agreement was signed between them called the “Aburi Accord”, but it meant nothing to either leader. Yakubu started to put pressure on the region, and tested how much sway he had in the area versus Ojukwu. Well Ojukwu being no slouch declared secession from the rest of Nigeria and became the “Republic of Biafra”. This began a war that caused the deaths of 100,000 soldiers, and much worse, a blockade on the region which starved 1 million civilians.

Some people make horrible decisions, others are just bad presidents, a few are bloodthirsty, many are extremists, a couple are warmongers, and all of these guys are a mix. Ten of our political leaders in the last 130 years have been the architects of the most horrific genocides, systematic murders, blockades, brutal wars, and policy reforms history has ever recorded.

Where to begin? Maybe an icebreaker for you next dinner party? Did you know the word “genocide” was coined in 1943 to describe when the Armenians were slaughtered haphazardly by Turkish leader Ismail Enver? Until then there was no specific word for it in our language. It makes me think about how much more cognizant we’ve become in this last century to these events. So, a quick toast between you and I to a more peaceable future where less of what follows below is allowed to happen. Sit back, but don’t relax.

Look at this! If we happened to leave in a sane climate this topics won't be created at first. Your country is blessed with 90% oil deposit, has fertile soil to grow major crops and you are celebrating mediocrity. Yes mediocrity because if you and other youths which are many in this country know your right you should be receiving monthly stipends of 6 figures. Op I am one who tells himself bitter truth. You just secured and appointment and if you eventually get the job then welcome to modern day slavery where you won't only drive the company bus but a chauffeur to your boss and his girlfriend.

Dude made a mistake. After the third heist he should have retired to Nigeria and belong to a political party, calming Hausa and he will be protested for by his suffering minions and not against. Claim IBO and he will be shield by this tribe and adored with plenty chieftaincy title. Claim Yoruba and many streets will be named after him, and with the title "jagaban" adored on him. In summary, majority of the youths will pray for their calls to be answered just like him.

nigeriapolitics:

God bless you, sometimes I wonder if we (the youth) have any sense of reasoning or individualism. The so call leaders ar always united wen looting our future, but we ar divided, some wil support APC blindly claiming patriotic citizen while others will support PDP. Some of these leaders stole enough money that can build minimum of 10 modern hospitals n schools. While you nd I dt struggle to earn 500k per year will b on every forum defended dem. I hope we get it right one day

Thanks dear. Many people don't know the consequences of what he is accused of and some of the foreign thieves he connived with are being prosecuted by their government but here we shout witch hunting.
Dude is been fingered for selling an oil field contains billions of barrels of oil, worth $500 billion for petty $1.2billion. He deserved to be under house arrest until proven innocent cause that money can purchase 10 African countries with change.

Whether mend back or not, with the damning evidence on ground Jonathan has a case.
Funny how you will see people rushing here to support when they don't know that the man is accused not by our local intelligence but foreign of selling a $500billon asset for $1.2billion and he shared the money to the Hausa, IBO and Yorubas. Yes, no tribalism while he was sharing the money.
