But Tinubu due to his selfish reasons have made we Yoruba Christian's to pictch our nest with Peter Obi, since we Yoruba Christian's will never vote for Muslim Muslim ticket, we are not fools, even Muric told Yoruba Muslims not to vote Yoruba Christian's that why Osinbajo was bullied out of the raise

I doubt if you’re truly a Yoruba guy because if you are you’ll know that religion can never cause division among Yorubas. All this Yoruba Muslim and Yoruba Christians are nothing but creation of social media

l know some women that can never consent to a rape even at the point of death. And if a woman will consent, she shouldn't have said it out to her husband. At best, some things are right but are better not said. So the OP's anger is justified but he just has to let go.

After reading this piece l realised why History was expunged from our school curriculum. lndeed History can be very controversial. l nevertheless decided to share this here to educate the young generation and to elicit reactions and probably get another version of this pieces of history from the general public.

Any historians in the house to vet this:

Forgotten History Of Igbo Tribe And Northern Alliance.

Do you know that when Tafawa Balewa was Prime Minister of Nigeria;

Chief of Army Staff was from SE
Chief of Naval Staff was from SE
IG of Police was from SE
Chief of Defence Staff was from SE
Internal Affairs Minister SE
External Affairs Minister SE
Education Minister South SE
Many other key ministries to SE
Parliament President SE
Unilag VC from SE
The University of Ibadan VC from SE
North resisted same at ABU!

Still, there was dissatisfaction by SE, the officers from the region killed this same Balewa!!!!

Out of all the most senior officers in Nigeria, SE has 37, none was killed. 8 from the north, all of them were killed. 10 from the west, 2 were killed.

Then Ironsi imposed a unitary system of government on the country so that everything can belong to a region who snatched it!

We must know our history so that when we want to make corrections, we will not end up concealing the truth. This has nothing to do with tribalism but everything to do with the truth.....at times when lies litter the streets. There is a tendency to think those are truths and facts.

*What follows are documented facts that can be cross-checked for authenticity!"*

Thou shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.

*“Prof. Ben Nwabueze was the man who drafted the constitution that took away powers from regions and handed it to the central government because his brother Aguiyi Ironsi was the head of state then. Today, he is shouting restructuring that he helped to destroy. We won’t forget.”*.

WHAT BIAFRANS WILL NEVER TELL YOU ABOUT THE REAL CAUSE OF THEIR WOES IN NIGERIA TODAY:

The Igbo man is known to enjoy blaming the Hausa fulanis, Yorubas and indeed every other Nigerian tribe and Lord Luggard/Britain for their seeming claim of being in third class citizen status in Nigeria. In their perpetual attempts to play the victim card, they recount the political events of Nigeria from 1914 to the present in a half-baked and highly selective manner which cleverly avoids the mention of the roles played by their elite who by all natural laws of judgement were actually responsible for the woes that befell not only the Igbo race but the entire Nigeria nation. The story told in the post above is one of such selective and distorted accounts of history which the average Igbo man is fond of narrating.

However, the national archives have the complete and unedited history of Nigeria regarding the political events beginning way back from even before 1914. I will therefore proceed to furnish my readers with the complete story for all to read and be endowed with enough facts so as to judge and act from an informed position.

Shortly after the 1914 Amalgamation of the Northern and Southern Protectorates, it started getting clear that the country was bound to fail as the amalgamation in question was done with colonial fiat without the consent and consensus of the different tribes which were over 300. This prompted the political leaders to start asking for de-amalgamation so as to forestall the future danger which the forced amalgamation portended.

To that end, Ahmadu Bello, speaking on behalf of the Northern protectorate in 1944 described the amalgamation as "The mistake of 1914 which if allowed to remain will ultimately lead to unstoppable bloodshed and a failed country".
Awolowo, speaking on behalf of the Yorubas and Western minorities, described Nigeria as a mere geographical expression not qualified to be called a country let alone a nation. Awolowo added that if the amalgamation could not be reversed, then Nigeria should be structured as a strictly federal state so as to enable each tribe enjoy autonomy this freedom from being dominated by any one single tribe.

But Nnamdi Azikiwe, speaking for the Igbos, denounced Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello, terming them ethnic champions. He accused them of nursing a sectional agenda against the unity of Nigeria, and he declared further that the Unity of Nigeria was non-negotiable.

After moving the motion for independece in 1953, Anthony Enahoro proposed that a secession clause should be incorporated into the future constitution of Nigeria so as to give legal backing for any tribe to peacefully exit the forced union if it feels marginalized in future. According to Enahoro, such provision in our constitution would instill in all Nigeria's future leaders the fear of the consequences of misgovernance. But Azikiwe, speaking on behalf of Igbos, rose against him in the parliament and labelled him an agent of disunity, and enemy of Nigeria. At a later date, Awolowo too made a case for secession clause, but Azikiwe again resisted him and instigated the colonial authorities to threaten him and Enahoro with charges of treasonable felony if they didn't stop proposing secession clause for the future constitution. While Azikiwe did all these, Igbos cheered and urged him on because they felt the future Nigeria was theirs to dominate and lord it over every other tribe

Before independece, Tafawa Balewa too had in a public speech described Nigeria as a British experiment and Nigeria's unity as a British intention which Nigerians themselves don't believe in. But Azikiwe kicked and demonized him too. Had Azikiwe co-operated with Enahoro, Awolowo, Ahmadu Bello and Tafawa Balewa about the secession clause, Nigeria perhaps would not have been this misgoverned.

For those in doubt, here is a link of one of the numerous instances in which Nnamdi Azikiwe fought against the secession clause proposal for the future Nigeria constitution.

It should be noted that there were many Igbo members of the parliament in which Azikiwe fought against Awolowo's secession clause proposal in the link above, but not a single one of them rose against Azikiwe or condemned him.

Igbos initially never wanted to hear anything like secession in Nigeria because they so much believed, though falsely, that they were the most educated tribe. (The first Nigerian tribe to produce a university graduate is the Binis). As an evidence of Igbo domination agenda hence their initial resistance to the idea of secession; here are some quotes:

"From all indications, the god of us Igbos have destined us to rule the whole of Africa"..... Nnamdi Azikiwe (1945).

"It is getting clearer each day that Igbo domination of Nigeria is just a question of time"... Oscar Onyeamma. (1949). Anascopeterson: As at 1900, the whole of the present Benue State, Kogi East Senatorial District and some southern parts of Taraba State called Munchi District back then; were all in the Southern Protectorate. Whoever doubts this should consult MacMillan Atlas for secondary schools in Nigeria. With that situation the South had a higher population than the North hence always had an upper hand in any democratic bargain.

But as at the early fifties when the regions were being created, common sense dictated clearly that these areas should fall in the future Eastern Region. But against common sense, the colonial masters decided to gerrymander them into the Northern Region. While they did that, Azikiwe who was supposed to be in Enugu fighting against it as the leader of the East, was far away in Ibadan struggling with Awolowo to rule the Western Region and also playing the spoiler role against Awolowo's attempts to have Kwara and present Kogi Yorubas carved into the Western Region from the North which was already too large by landmass.

While he abandoned his burning house and was far away in Ibadan struggling against Awolowo for his own (Awolowo's) region, Igbos saw absolutely nothing wrong with that. Rather they applauded him as a nationalist. A nationalist whose house was burning yet busy chasing rats in a far away land.
When opinions became unanimous that Lord Luggard and his government must be forced out of Nigeria and indeed the whole of Africa, it was still the Igbos that frustrated the attempts. Here is how:

In 1948, Anthony Enahoro organized an anti-colonization symposium in Lagos for which Azikiwe and some other Igbos had agreed to deliver the keynote address. But when the D-day came, Azikiwe was nowhere to be found as he deliberately disappeared into thin air for fear of being arrested and dealt with by Lord Luggard. Anthony Enahoro then quickly replaced Azikiwe with another person who did the job improptu but perfectly well as he lambasted and lampooned Lord Luggard and the British Government. However, the British soldiers invaded the symposium venue, arrested the speaker and Enahoro and jailed them for treasonable felony. Ironically, the next day Azikiwe came out of hiding and granted a radio interview in which he accused Enahoro and the other organizers of suffering from youthful exhuberance.

On regaining his freedom few weeks later and being told of Azikiwe's radio interview, Enahoro resigned from his post as Editor of Azikiwe's newspaper - The West African Pilot.

Then he wrote a book titled "Nnamdi Azikiwe: Sinner of Saint". After launching the book, Enahoro left Azikiwe's party - the NCNC, and moved over to Awolowo's Action Group.

The first military coup in Nigeria was carried out by majority of Igbo army officers. That was the coup that truncated democracy just six years post Independence and led to a succession of coups which put the country on the reverse gear for 33 years.

Through that first coup, those Igbo army officers who accused the politicians and government of the day of monumental corruption, killed the political leaders of the Northern, Western and Midwestern Regions but allowed all Igbo political figures to escape by tipping them off prior to the D-Day. In addition to the killing of political figures, they also killed a total of 27 innocent high ranking military officers from every region except their Eastern Region.

In the end an Igbo man called Aguiyi Ironsi, who was supposed to have been killed alongside other military officers, ended up becoming the new military ruler of Nigeria. Rather than immediately arrest and punish the coup plotters, he kept them in detention where they were treated as heroes. This was actually what sowed the seed for the eventual Biafra War. On the 23rd of February 1966 (i.e. a month and 8 days after the first coup porpularly but wrongly known as Nzeogwu coup, an Ijaw born Army officer called Isaac Adaka Boro who hailed from Kaima town of present Bayelsa State, declared the secession of the Niger Delta Republic in an attempt to free his Ijaw people from the monumental marginalization they had been suffering under Igbos in the old Eastern Region.
But Aguiyi Ironsi immediately ordered Colonel Odumegwu Ojukwu to arrest him and hand him over to the military high command under him in Lagos. Ojukwu went all out against Isaac Adaka Boro with federal military might and within 12 fighting days killed 150 Isaac Boro's soldiers, arrested him, stripped him naked, and had him driven to Lagos and handed to Ironsi who immediately charged him to court and within two months secured against him a conviction of treasonable felony for which he was sentenced to death by hanging fixed for December that year by the Supreme Court. His 'crime' was that he declared secession of The Niger Delta Republic from Nigeria. Meanwhile the Igbo coupists who shed innocent blood of other tribes and even sprayed bullets into the bellies of the pregnant wives of Ahmadu Bello and Brigadier Shodeinde were not charged to court or arraigned before any military tribunal.

Isaac Adaka Boro was in detention waiting for December to come for him to join his ancestors. But God so kind, a revenge coup happened on July 29 by Northern soldiers and Ironsi was overthrown and killed. Gowon took over and released Isaac Adaka Boro unconditionally, reinstated him into the Army with his previous rank.

Then on May 30, 1967, Ojukwu too declared secession of Biafra Republic from Nigeria and without consulting or apologising to Isaac Boro, drew a Biafra map which included the very areas that made up Isaac Adaka Boro's earlier declared Niger Delta Republic for which he fought against him and killed his soldiers. Seeing such level of arrogance in Ojukwu, Isaac Boro asked Gowon to provide arms for him to crush Biafra by fighting on the Nigerian side in vengeance for Ojukwu's frustration of his own secession declaration 15 months earlier.
Isaac Boro, as an Ijaw man conversant with the waterways, led the Nigeria Army through the coastal areas into Igboland to finish off thousands of Ojukwu's soldiers thus leading to the crushing defeat of Biafra. But today, Igbos accuse Ijaws of betraying them in the war. But from the facts as above, who really betrayed the other in all honesty? Be the judge. Why Gowon fought against Ojukwu's declaration of Biafra was as follows:

After Ironsi and Ojukwu successfully crushed Isaac Boro's Niger Delta Republic declaration, Ironsi immediately proceeded to promulgate the Anti-secession Decree which made the mere mention of secession from Nigeria punishable with death by hanging. Ojukwu openly supported and endorsed the decree despite disapproval of it by the general public. So when Ojukwu later declared Biafra secession, he was reminded of the Anti-secession Decree made by him and his brother Ironsi.

Deadly Truth: Igbos frequently reference Aburi Accord to create the impression that the rest of Nigerian tribes don't honour agreements. This is a very dishonest narrative from Igbos.

First and foremost Aburi Accord was organized by soldiers and unelected civil servants who should not participate in political exercises like making laws due to the civil service anonymity principle. Secondly, those civil servants and military men in attendance were not elected by their federal constituencies to the Aburi summit. In the philosophy of democracy the only universally acceptable way of making laws is through duly elected representatives of the people. But in going to Aburi the peoples' representatives duly elected in the 1965 elections were all sidelined for soldiers to hijack the process. Where on earth do soldiers make laws for the people? Rather, the civilian populace makes laws that guide the military. Aburi Accord therefore had no seal of the people's sovereignty hence it was an illegality which shouldn't have been allowed to stand.

Thirdly, in 1957, Nigerians from all federal constituencies democratically elected representatives whom they sponsored to London, paid their flight tickets and hotel accommodation for the Independence constitutional conference. Those representatives all resolved and agreed on federalism marked by regional autonomy and resource control in the Independence Constitution which they brought back home and everyone accepted it.

In that constitution, Nigerians all agreed that on no account shall the military take over power. It was also clearly stated in it that ammendments to it could be done by only democratically elected representatives.

That constitution was the first ever agreement between all Nigerians. On the day of his inauguration as the Army GoC, Aguiyi Ironsi stood before the whole world and with his own mouth swore to protect and defend that sovereign Independence constitution regardless of the circumstances that may later arise. But just six years after he manufactured an excuse to clinch power against the clear provisions of that constitution we all agreed to, unilaterally began to amend its provisions with his very offensive Decrees, and ended up dismantling the federalism and resource control therein, and ultimately subverted that constitution we all painstakingly sacrificed to draft. That was the height of Irresponsibility and the dishonoring of sacred agreement. That was how Igbos breached the first agreement, all Nigerians, ever all mutually consented to, thus laying the foundation for violation of future agreements.

So Aburi Accord was only treated exactly the same way Igbos treated the Independence constitution agreement.
Anascopeterson: Obasanjo removed history from the school curriculum hence the reason why many of what we know of the eventualities in Biafra war were altered to suite their narratives.

Anytime i hear or watch NNAMDI KANU talk i never take it serious but only as a noisemaker.

Thank God for this author. The Lord will bless him for us all! Everyone needs to know this for real. Knowing the truth sets free. We need healing as a Nation. We need to face facts, admit the stupid errors of history and eventual forgive ourselves for the sins, enormous sins committed by our forefathers. Love covers a multitude of sins.

An undergraduate of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Seyi Akinade, has reportedly committed suicide.

The victim, in a lengthy post on Twitter before his death, said he could no longer live with the continuous harassment by men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, which he claimed led to his decision to kill himself.

This should be a subtle reminder to our politicians who live as if they 'll be here forever amazing wealth at the expense of the poor that life is transient.

I m just wondering where John oyegun has been since he handed over to the incumbent chairman. the man hasn't been seen in any of the APC events unlike Bisi Akande his predecessor.

Nigeria: Beautiful country with good people led by clueless, selfish and incompetent leaders!

Mimiko shot himself in the foot when he failed to align with ACN the moment the party helped him to win the legal battle at the court. He would have been handed over the party structure in the state.

He has been a serial betrayal with very selfish ambition all through his political sojourn. from adefarati to agagu to tinubu to labour party. politically, I believe the man is finished. I only pity people that still follow him, May be for the money sha.

I think the VC only said that to safe face as denying Melaye at this level will seriously dent the image of the school the world over considering the facts that:
1) the school admitted him in error with 3 credits and a pass in geography
2) He got a transcript from d school which he used to run a Pgd program in the same school
3) He used the diploma results purportedly issued by d institution to pursue a Master's program in Unijos.
4) Denying him at this stage will call the integrity of the school into questioning.
With all these, the best thing d school can do is to try to cover up for him.

It is being said that one of the true measure of a good leader is through his/her successor. This singular measure rubbished Obasanjo's achievement as a great leader not once but twice!

Take it or live it; Tinubu was able to resuscitate and sustain the foundation of development as laid by Awolowo in southwest region. He tread where others dread! He choosed to remain in opposition even as almost a lone fighter in AD/AC. The strong opposition we have in the country today can be attributed to his political sagacity. His doggedness is paying off as he sets to control d center.

Fine, he has been severally accused of greedily amassing wealth even though he was very wealthy before his foray into politics as he was one of the major financiers of NADECO then. By and large, he has been able to use the wealth to install credible people at the helm of affairs in this country. People like Mamora, Gbajabiamila, Fashola, Aregbesola, Fayemi, Hamzat, Opeyemi Bamidele and a host of others were made by him.

No doubt, Fashola is a very sound administrator and Lagos has been greatly blessed by his tenures. He should rather tread softly as he is never a political leader in Lagos. He is most likely to go into political oblivion if care is not taken. I trust Tinubu's judgment on the choice of Ambode as the next governor of Lagos state. We should rather support him as he happens to be the only true political leader in southwest at least for now.

I consider this piece as a mere lamentation with no concrete suggestion as to how to get out of the logjam. What is/are your point(s) in particular? Are you suggesting we should allow GEJ to rule d nation for another 4 years even after admitting that he is a failure?

I wish GEJ could list his 'achievements' as Balyesa's state governor just like this man did before Nigerians voted for him as Presidents in 2011, rather he based his campaign solely on sentiments and majority fell for it.
Never again should we allow someone without pedigree to rule this country!

The simple questions every sane Nigerian should ask about GEJ capacity as it relates to 2015 elections are: where has he worked before his foray into politics, what are his achievements, even as a politician before he became the president.

All along we have been having accidental president right from the day of Shagari. We have never been opportuned to have a president who has really done his home work with a good understanding of the system. It is high time we stopped voting for people without pedigree. Let us allow someone with real interest even when the chance is so bleak rather than queuing behind a mere opportunist.

Nigerian Senate, pretending to be working since 1960. Seriously, these people have been collecting huge salary just for rubber stamping FG decisions and noting more.

PriceOfGarri:
Fantastic! Exactly what I said on d first page, but the OP called me a pdp member.
Anyway, elections in Nigeria have shown us that what happens in reality is grossly different from what happens in d electronic media.
It still beats my imagination why apc can't unanimously give Fashola their ticket. Anyday, anytime, Fashola is obviously more capable than the candidature of GEJ.
Since they (apc) know they have NE and NW as their strng holds, what stops them from using a moderate southern muslim candidate to rake d southern votes? Must it be an extremist muslim?
It's actually less than a year!
NB: I am not a partisan. I don't belong to any party. I don't support any party. But for now, am supporting GEJ!

Obiagelli:
well said, i don't believe in primaries either. Pdp primaries created/strengthened boko haram.

whatlyf: You see PDP has no ace up their sleeves. I am laughing @ the two posters above you saying SW don't luv "Kwakwaso" and "Buhari". They think SW love Jonathan and Sambo. The ethicity and religious card worked in 2011 but..let's see 2015. I decided to stop responding to them because they keep repeating same lines. Buhari or Kwankwaso will be fine. Fashola, Utomi, Amaechi or Rochas as vice will be splendid. Oshiomole being vice won't be feasible because Edo has produced Nat. Chair of APC.

I m a strong supporter of Buhari as I consider him as a far better candidate than GEJ, but having read through most of the analysis so far I believe giving Fashola the ticket won't be a bad idea at all as this would definitely make the Jonathanians not to have anything they could use to campaign against APC. They will just run out of idea!

Fine, Buhari can pull majority of votes from the north, but would Fashola as a candidate make the north to vote for Jonah instead (since we would be having 2 candidates)? I believe no is the answer. So with Fashola, majority of the northerners would still vote against JEG.

How about the south? Without doubt, Fashola would have 80% (if not more) of votes cast in the south west. His candidature would definitely put the SE and SS in total confusion, with this I see him wining at least 40% (if not more) of votes in each of the state in the region. The only thing they could use to campaign against him would be the fact that he is a Yoruba man thatz all.

I really want APC leaders to consider this as this would really rock the boat of PDP, the idea of pitching the north against the south would be check mated and it would really show that they are truly progressive. Buhari can then be asked to nominate 2 northern christians who are relatively popular as the running mate.

My opinion.

Its only a coward that will resign to fate just like that. If Aregbesola, Mimiko, Fayemi, Oshiomole and even Amaechi had tolled this line of thought they wouldn't be where they are today. Ride on Ngige! We need the court to either validate or void the election.

Really, talk is cheap!

Definitely, it would be easier for her to become US President than ruling Nigeria!

Never! Because of ethnicity and tribalism people from other region will never consider any one outside there region as a great leader so great leader in Nigeria of today can only be limited to his/her region or ethnic group.

Anyboby supporting Adeboye on this issue needs to get his/her head examined!
I'm not surprised anyway, afterall people supported and still supporting rev KING!
some are even liking him to Jesus Christ who was wrongly accused and crucified.
one thing that is sure is that no matter how bad you are as a leader you will
surelly have supporters, worse still, no matter how precarious or warp your reasoning or
belief is you will surely find a verse in the bible as a reverence point

majority of the responses on this thread give credence to the fact that nairaland is
populated by toddlers and ethnic bigots who are too lazy to read the history of a country called Nigeria.

They are more religious than men.lol

This has just comfirmed the fact that most of the people that have occupied, and presently at the helm of affairs in this country are mad!
We never knew this because of confidential nature of medical reports. So how do we ensure that someone
who has suffered from mental disorder does not get elected into sensitive offices

The man should just thank God that he isn't a muslim he would have been real dead inside the grave by now.
I think all these experiences should be an eye opener to our muslim brothers on the need to expunge/discard that aspect of quaran that stipulate that someone should be buried within 24 hours of his/her being declared dead.

Take out churches and you have solved the problem of corruption in Nigeria.
All the corrupt politians attend church
Contractors that inflate contract by over 500% attend church
Corrupt directors in federal ministries and parastatals attend chuch
Corrupt police officers attend church
All these categories of people and many more others that became riches through dubious and corrupt means are well respected, recorgnised and even in some cases given a special seat in the church
All these are happening because the pastors condone and encourage them because they want these people to sow into their lifes. Did the pastor that was given an oil rig bother to know the source of wealth of the donor? even if it was given by the government, does it follow due process? A contractor comes to church and given a testimony of how god blessed him with a contract worth N50million and all he spent is N10million and the whole church erupted with joy and praise singing to the 'lord' for the 'blessing'. of course pastor will bless him having paid the tithe of N4million.
They are all challantans with no exception!!! Thank God I have found the truth and the truth has set me free.

Sovereigh wealth fund is sneaky and suspicious. Yes, we should save so we can have something for tomorrow but someone needs to explain how Nigerians benefited from our celebrated foreign reserve which went to as high as $48B during Obasanjo era but has now been depleted to less than $20B. Someone needs to tell me what our rulers bought or invested the money on that depleted it.
So, between the time our foreign reserve moved from robust to deplete, what happened? We can see more terrible roads and children who have good grades but can’t get into the university. We see those who graduated roaming the streets. We drink now from borehole instead of Water Corporation. We see brain drain, imported fertilizer and imported rice. So what are we saving towards if our living standards don’t get better. If air fares go higher and governors travel in chartered planes and jet, who benefits from the foreign reserves?

Now, the states where pupils have no desks and we still have villages where buses go only on market days, have to contribute to Sovereign Wealth Fund. Money that we need now. Fund that will not be used to build refineries or rice processing plants? Shouldn’t there be a reason why we are saving? The governors have kicked against the idea and gone to court but I have this feeling that some graphs and pie-charts will surface and this Fund will eventually take off. And we, the people, will bear the brunt. Budgets will remain unimplemented. The federal universities will not be upgraded or expanded. Our sick leaders will continue to die abroad because money meant for latest hospital gadgets would have been saved. Our living standards will remain what it is, poor.
