Aareonakakanfo I think you are underestimating terrorism. Any tribe of group of people can be brainwashed Did you hear that the female suicide bomber in France till like a few months ago used to be the average European girl having sexx, going to clubs, listening to hip-hop and suddenly something triggered extremism in her When I was in university I saw the impact of radicalisation. A young moslem girl was admitted, innocent 18yr old within a few months she got involved with a radical guy and he married her without the parents knowledge and camped her in school, she refused to go back home and was even missing lectures. Her parents came to school to look for her and found her holed up in the Mosque, when they attempted to take her away, the guys attacked the parents saying the are trying to take the girl away from the path of light. The mom was crying at Awo Hall until Awo boys got wind of the story stormed the mosque and beat up everyone there. They found some weapons in the mosque. |

IlekeHD: But it can't EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER Be! It will not happen... We have quota sytem & federal character & the constitution is all about FREE MOVEMENT. Small fee disparity, no issue, a 300% hike ? Wike will be demonised till he gives it up!!! |

interloper: the transition for OPC in their upward trajectory will be to open most of their activities for public scrutiny and many areas of their operation be formalised, get a medley of different stratas of the yoruba society to identify with many of their laudable programs and perhaps the political gladiators in SW should at least give them a wink and a nod in even private, as they seem to be a pariah in the eyes of the political leaders in SW and they give them no mention in public or otherwise. the political leaders of the day should continue to monitor/mentor their activism until such a time they will be ripe to be brought to bare in some formal role within the SW and that endless leadership scuffle btw adams/faseun should be done and getting rid off pls. Perhaps then the majority of the public can give them a broad base support and recognition. |

modath: You're misinterpreting OUT-OF-STATE fees for SLAVERY. No one is going to restrict your movement from one state to another. In the states, you're allowed to move around and once you've settled in a state for at least 4 years [for undergrad] you're a resident, and 1.5years [for grad school]. For out-of-state to work, we need to implement the system of residency [the clauses]. 300% may be too much [it's for the school to decide, not the state]. Of course Wike will give up because he's standing alone. He was too hasty with his implementation. This should have been discussed within the education system committee [if Nigeria has one] and the government. |
Re: Yoruba Commonwealth and Politics by Katsumoto: 5:27pm On Nov 20, 2015 |
interloper: Please read my post again. I said the political leadership should be aligned with the military wing. In Nigeria today, that alignment is necessary. I never suggested that the OPC should start bombing places or killing people. Even though there is peace in Northern Ireland, has the IRA been disbanded? It exists to still provide a balance even if they are in the shadows. |
Re: Yoruba Commonwealth and Politics by raumdeuter: 5:27pm On Nov 20, 2015 |
Aare. Another story. It was an OAU agelong tradition from the 70's for Boys to gather in Awo Hall on Friday night to watch P0rn. And when you're leaving the TV room, there is a "No-pocketing" rule meaning you cant use your hand to hide your b0ner. From my first Friday in Ife I joined and our "onile" was a legendary Pharmacy student "Victor-Mojo" After I left, i heard a group of Moslem students who had armed themselves attacked the Awo TV room after their nightly mojo series saying it was immoral to watch Mojo it became a very serious fight and the school was shut down At a stadium in Turkey last Tuesday during the 1minute silence for the Paris victims, the whole stadium was whistling, booing and shouting Allahu-Akbar. Turks are seen to be moderate moslems like Yoruba counterparts. That shows there is a quiet majority somewhere who support the action of these terrorists All it needs is an excuse to start problems. And the excuse can be anything |
Re: Yoruba Commonwealth and Politics by Katsumoto: 5:30pm On Nov 20, 2015 |
modath: What has quota system got to do with levying higher fees on out of state students. Surely the fees apply only to the Institutions that Rivers state runs and not University of Port Harcourt which is owned by the Fed Government. If Rivers invests a significant percentage of its budget on Education, why should students from Bayelsea flood into Rivers at the expense of students from Rivers? If you are from Bayelsa and you want to go to school in Rivers, then be prepared to pay higher fees. 2 Likes |

modath: I didnt know her name but it was around 2000. I knew a lot was going on in that Awo mosque I know a lot of girls and guys come to school and they become redicalized One guy in Seun Osewa's class Lateef an extremely brilliant boy. When he came in yr 1 was just a normal Moz(female hostel) visiting Oshomo boy. In yr 1 Lateef had over 4point GPA. By yr 3, Lateef has become radicalized, he doesnt go to class regularly, His trousers are jumping. he started failing but believes he was doing Allah's wish One day after lectures I remember Seun an ECU born again who barely talks to anyone and lateef were arguing seriously in white house both getting agitated I was just laughing |

Katsumoto:Egbon mi, OPC to gbabode fun wa jare. OPC vigorously supported all the ibo candidate in Lagos that contested under the platform of PDP. Dr Fredrick Faseun was often present at the campaign rally of Tony Nwulu and Jude Idimogwu, both of whom won the seat to the federal hosue of reps and state house of assembly for Oshosi/Isolo constituency 1 1 Like |

CabbieAC Follow This thread and what aressa is posting about Aregbesola https://www.nairaland.com/2749096/aregbesola-set-commission-ejigbo-high/4#2749096.130 Hopefully the guy in Osun can confirm to us whats on ground It seems salary payment is the only thing they are using to fault Aregbe. |

Katsumoto: fair enough but in the eyes of the irish law, IRA is an illegal group and people get sent to jail if you are found to be a member but . . . . . .i just kinda get weary if groups spring up with guns especially outside the proviso of the constitution of any country, most especially a country like nigerian! where there is a silent army of people ready to explore our national fault lines and do maximum damage to her. i hope some how sometime soon, once we get all this economic benefits trickling down to every corner of the country, this continuous agitation for everything and anything might just die down and folks goan to enjoy the lives, services, infrastructure and the society as a whole . . . . |

Re: Yoruba Commonwealth and Politics by modath(f): 5:42pm On Nov 20, 2015 |
Katsumoto: You & ileke are not getting me... The reference to quota system, fed xter / freedom of movement is to drive home the kind of mentality that exists in this country.... Most state schools have a different fee for non indigent vut it is usually in the 20-50% band.. 300% will not happen. & the thing about going to their state will not hold water. Probably wike did that & is hoping for a 50% increase after NEGOTIATION.. |

Re: Yoruba Commonwealth and Politics by Katsumoto: 5:47pm On Nov 20, 2015 |
modath: Why not 300%, heck why not 600%? If his intention is to de-congest his state, he is at liberty to do that as long as he has the support of the voters in Rivers. It is high time, everyone goes to develop their states and stop flooding into any state that is making progress. Let all citizens go and attack their reps and governors and demand accountability instead of protesting in another state. When Nigerians start demanding accountability from their LG because they are discriminated against in another LG, then Nigeria will start making progress. There needs to be a radical paradigm shift for there to be progress. 3 Likes |

modath: The state/federal government has the right [or should] impose tuition prices.....private school is another matter. If 300% is their demand, then so it shall be. If out of state public school is too high, stay in state. If public school is too costly, go to a private school. If either one is too much, start a business idea or go back to the farm. You're right, it won't happen now, because the system [foundation] for such process has not been laid down. Wike [with the right intention] is implementing a system that requires 10 men by himself. Out-Of-State tuition is actually a great idea....... if Rivers want 300%, that's River's choice. |
