All the Nigerian police and army are mounting roadblocks in the south East collecting bribe while bandits and Boko Harams commit despicable atrocities in the North.

The hatred for the Igbos is actually blessing in disguise though the Igbos are protected by their enemies.

They should also conduct hard drug tests on those seeking elective positions starting from councilorship candidates to presidential candidates

This article is simply the voice of balablu and the hand of bulaba which simply means sponsored by Malta blenders.

IDIOTS

Anioma state is a goal

Where are the cows?

All the northern problems have been solved by this singular act of benevolence. After this marriage, no more terrorism in the north.

Northern and southern dichotomy.

So he was appointed PM after he was elected as PM and the king added Lord of treasury to the appointment. Wonderful!!!

S’East stakeholders’ conference endorses creation of Anioma State
Guardian Nigeria

A one-day South-East stakeholders meeting, held in Enugu, has approved the creation of ‘Anioma’ state from parts of the South-South and South East geopolitical zones, saying that it would not only add to the current population of the South East region but increase its land mass.

The conference, organised by the Igbo Youths Forum on the way forward for Ndigbo, with the theme, ‘Creation of New State in South East’, which was attended by the chairmen and secretaries of state and local council chapters of the forum in the five South East states, stated that ‘Anioma’ state would also foster unity and development of the South East region.

The National President, Association of South-East Past Presidents-General (ASEPP), Omife I. Omife, in a lead speech, went memory lane on how the South East had been marginalised for several years by being the only geo-political zone with five states, while all other zones have six and above. He noted that the ongoing deliberation about state creation is an opportunity for Igbo to do their political home work well to determine the best approach to the issue.

Omife told the gathering that given the political circumstances in the country, the best option for the Igbo is to rally other Igbo in their demand for ‘Anioma’ state, which, according to him, began more than half a century ago.

He said, “Yes, our economy is going through turbulence but is it confined to Nigeria alone? Let’s take a broadband picture. Is any economy immune from the challenges of the times? So, I urge you to be fair to this poor man.”



So shetima called OUR president a poor man

Anioma State Creation Remains Oldest Agitation In Nigeria’s History -Ned Nwoko

As part of efforts towards promoting positive enlightenment and tutulage to some opponents of Anioma State Creation within and outside Delta State, Nigeria and beyond, The Senator Representing Delta North Senatorial District in the Upper Chamber of the National Assembly, Sen. Prince Barr Ned Munir Nwoko, has cleared doubts on the questions on the reality of the proposed Bill, says agitation on “Anioma State Creation” is the oldest in Nigeria’s History started since 1950.

Daily Independent learnt this today being on Monday, July 24, 2024 in a letter which was addressed to Anioma People written by Delta North Senator Ned Nwoko which was made to some group of Journalists in Asaba Delta State capital as the Federal Lawmaker tasks Anioma People; critical stakeholders, political leaders, residents on the importance of unity of purpose towards achieving results.

Ned highlighted the future political, socio-conomic benefits aimed at sustainable development of the area, not for any personal interest as reason for re-activating the agitation as he enjoined Anioma people to possess hearts full of hope, determination and patriotism for their dreams as he harped on the possibility of actualizing the creation of Anioma State.

The letter by Senator Ned Nwoko to Anioma People reads in parts: “Dear Noble Anioma People and Esteemed Stakeholders. I write to you today with a heart full ofhope,determination and patriotism not only as your Senator but as a fellow Anioma person who shares our collective dreams and aspirations.The creation of Anioma State is not just a political goal; it is a deeply collective mission that I have been committed to for many years”.

“The demand for Anioma creation is unarguably the oldest agitation in the history of Nigeria,started in the 1950s by the people of Aboh and Asaba divisions in the Western regional House of Assembly. It is a struggle that has spanned decades and one that I believe we are closer than ever to achieving. This journey began long before I became a senator.I have been actively involved in the protracted agitation for Anioma State through various efforts and engagements.

“I vividly remember the central role I played,arranging crucial meetings between the then President Olusegun Obasanjo and our respected traditional rulers led by the Asagba of Asaba,late Obi Professor Chike Edozien on two occasions between 1999 and 2003,during my tenure as Member representing Aniocha/Oshimili federal constituency in the House of Representatives”.

“These historic meetings were pivotal moments in our quest for Anioma state,as were the discussions I facilitated with former President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua. As your elected representative,it is my solemn mandate and avowed duty to reignite this effort with renewed vigour.But more profoundly,I stand with you, shoulder to shoulder,as someone who deeply understands the significance of this noble cause.

The creation of Anioma State,with Asaba as its capital,is not a self seeking political ambition—it is a vision for a brighter,more prosperous future for all of us. Nobler still -a golden chance to consummate the deepest dreams of our forebears and our cherished prospects as a people”.

“This initiative is not about division; it is about empowerment.We are not at war with any group.We are not fighting against the South or the Central regions. It goes far beyond linguistic,cultural and sociological gratifications.It is a peace move of progress.

A movement for sustainable development.We are striving to harness our abundant resources and exceptional manpower to build a state that reflects our potential and meets our needs. Our goal is to ensure that Anioma stands tall and proud,with the governance and representation it deserves”.

I have vigorously been rallying both at the presidency and within the Senate to gather the necessary support for Anioma State. This is a joint effort, and I urge our brothers in the House of Representatives to join in this crucial endeavour.Together, we have the strength and blessing to turn this dream into reality. Consider the benefits: Development at our doorsteps- villages and town.New society.New life for our our people. Anioma State would mean three senators instead of one, more representatives in the House, additional seats in our State Assembly, and closer, more responsive and fulfilling governance”.

“This increased representation will amplify our voices and ensure that our unique needs and interests are addressed. Imagine the impact of having more commissioners,more government offices,more opportunities.Think of the upswing effect – efficient administration.

“This is my pious point.This is the promise of Anioma State.The question of whether Anioma will align with the South East, South-South, or Mid West is secondary.That should not be the crux of the matter.Our primary focus should be on building support from across the nation.This is not a time for division or discord. We must unite, focusing our energy on making Anioma State a reality. Insults and divisions will only hinder our progress”.

“As a democrat, I acknowledge the diverse and divergent opinions within our community.Democracy recognises liberty of free speech.

Moreover,it is natural to have differing views,especially in a vibrant and educated population like ours but remember, this cause is not just for the Anioma people; it is for everyone who calls Anioma home. Every resident, whether an indigene or not, shares in this vision and has a big role to play. Agitation for Anioma state creation is a movement,long drawn,progressive, unstoppable.

Consultations have been ongoing for years, and we will continue these efforts until our goal is achieved.We do not need to start a new round of consultations, as extensive groundwork has already been laid”.

As the revered Asagba of Asaba once said on May 5, 2001 at a special summit of Anioma people : ‘We should all resolve to have a united Anioma state.We have the men,we have the resources.Let us march forward with courage and vision,conscious of the fact that the weak are victims of history’. During my campaign, I promised the kings and Izu Anioma that I would champion this cause and also advocate for constitutional roles for our traditional rulers.I was elected on this promise, through the sovereign ballot of democracy and I stand by my word”.

“I recall with much pride that when one of my sons was born in 2001, I named him Anioma, a patriotic symbolism of my innate love for Anioma nation. Now, more than ever, I ask for your unwavering support.Let us come together, united in purpose and spirit, to make Anioma State a reality.

“Together, we can achieve this historic milestone and pave a great dawn for all- the present and future generations. Let Anioma rise as our collective call.
“I stand by this promise with the firmness of resolve and brightest of vision.Yours Sincerely, Senator Ned Munir Nwoko, Delta North Senatorial District”.

Islam is the most peaceful religion on earth

So finally, terrorism has boldly gotten to nassarawa state. May God save nassarawa from terrorists and Fulani herdsmen.

I don't know why and how terrorism is synonymous with peace to some people.

It can only get louder if it's South East. No one will criticize their leaders instead the hypocrites in Nigeria would blame peter Obi for not providing food for them instead of sinking borehole.

Nigeria was cursed by Lord Lugard's girlfriend with bad leaders. That means, if they went to all the 774 local governments in Nigeria, they spent approximately 9.1 billion naira to collect revenue in each local government.

Conversely, if they did not go to all the local governments, they spent more than 15 billion in some local governments to collect revenue.

Nigeria can only get better when the poor masses irrespective of religion,tribe and ethnicity rise against the government.

This topic will never make front page because it's against their hypocrisy.

Secondly, they will never attack senator Shehu Sani who posted this on his twitter but would rather attack Peter Obi who has no connection with the post and they would also find a way to demean the whole Igbos

Senator Shehu Sani has condemned the killing of seven policemen in Zambara State in his tweet on X formerly Twitter. However, he pointed out the hypocrisy among Nigerians about the volume of outcry when security agents are killed in the south East.

Nigeria I "hell" thee

Why can't you drop the exact location or mention the name of the place so that we can easily verify your claim?

Tinubu has no formula for fixing anything in Nigeria but formula for white elephant projects through which he would loot and syphon the treasury.

BATerians will leave Obasanjo and start attacking Obi.

This is long overdue

Wike and his so called loyalists are senseless. How did wike think he would lord it over everyone in Rivers state? Fubara is the number one citizen in Rivers state and all the respects comes with his office should be duly accorded to him.

The owner seun, is fixated on Twitter while lunatics are running asylum on nairaland. The nairaland of many years back is no longer toxic nairaland of today.

When the head is rotten...

Imagine biodun giving false information about Anambra from his brown roof in Ogbomosho. Tufiakwa

Junk blogging/journalism. A man you couldn't ascertain his true identity but you attributed father of 12 to him. How did you know he was a father of 12?

Men take good care of your health. Don't mind anyone telling "dig harder and faster", you might as well be digging your grave harder and faster.

Those motorcycles could have been more useful if they had been donated to vigilante to tackle banditry.

Umahi is the Starboy of this otherwise reckless administration

Tinubu can't sack Kyari!!! Kyari is to Tinubu what Emefiele was to Buhari.
