My Take On Atiku's Cameroonian Heritage by netpro(m): 1:25pm On Apr 15, 2019 |
It is a very good thing that for the first time since Independence, this is the first time this matter will be challenged in court. OBJ complained severally about Atiku on Bakassi and other sketchy undertones about his roots. Now it can be legally resolve. Here are some of the already unraveled truths: 1. Atiku's hometown Jada in Ganye was in Northern Cameroon. 2. This area was never part of Nigeria until the February 1961 plebiscite when they voted to join Nigeria. 3. The Nigeria's constitution specifically stated a candidate for President must be natural born Nigerian. 4. Atiku was not born a Nigerian. Atiku and the PDP cannot just wave this aside. The court up till Supreme Court will have to make pronouncement on this matter. An Alien can't just come and rule Nigeria. Atiku wants to go to court right, he can remain there. ![]() 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Atiku is a Nigerian Yes, I don't like PDP, but this is just a long and tired story. We might as well declare half the tribes in this country not to be Nigerian since most of them migrated from elsewhere to settle here centuries ago. Or we might declare most of the Lingala speakers in Congo DR Nigerians since they emigrated from here to there some centuries ago. Atiku is a Nigerian, Buhari has his WAEC ....now can we focus on more important stuff please. |
Re: My Take On Atiku's Cameroonian Heritage by netpro(m): 2:32pm On Apr 15, 2019 |
Section 131(a) of the Constitution stipulates that a person must be a citizen of Nigeria by birth to be qualified to contest for the office of the President. The question is, with Atiku not being a Citizen by birth, is he qualified to run for Office of the President? |

netpro: Here are my questions for you, (1)There was no such country as Cameroon until 1960,Atiku was born in Jada in 1946,how then can we claim Atiku was from a, country that was not on the world map when he was born, or should we just conclude that he was stateless at birth? (2)If this area was not part of Nigeria as at 1961 how come Cameroonians are now voting to join Nigeria if yes what would be the reason for a country to vote to join another country entirely,does it make any sense to u? (3)What is your definition of born in Nigeria,Atiku grandfather is said to be from Sokoto and he was born in Jada before the existence of Cameroon? (4)If Atiku was not born in Nigeria kindly highlight the, name of the country he was born? 6 Likes 1 Share |

neyobills: Nothern Cameroon under the British wasn't part of the Nigerian entity till 1961. The only way out for Atiku is to prove either of his parent being born in what was considered Nigeria pre-1960. It's quite clear in the constitution 2 Likes |

kayfra: Northern Cameroon was never under the British ever,and there is no way Northern Cameroon would ever be Nigeria because they are totally different entities,French Cameroon turned into present day Cameroon while British Cameroons turned into present day Nigeria, what part of that is so hard for u to understand? |

Deapexboy: You are not making any sense,British Cameroons is a mandate under the British colony of Nigeria totally different from the British colony of the gold coast. If u knew your onion you would know Togoland was split into 2 French Togoland which is present day Togo and British Gold coast which is present day Ghana.

Re: My Take On Atiku's Cameroonian Heritage by neyobills: 6:47pm On Apr 15, 2019 |
kayfra: What is considered Nigeria before the 1961 referendum is the colony and protectorate of Nigeria under which British Cameroons is a mandate state,therefore Jada has always been Nigerian territory since thy kingdom come |
Re: My Take On Atiku's Cameroonian Heritage by kayfra: 7:07pm On Apr 15, 2019 |
neyobills:Stop twisting yourself in a pretzel to now sound ridiculously stupid. Cameroon was split on 20 July 1922 into British Cameroons (under a Resident) and French Cameroun (under a Commissioner until 27 August 1940, then under a governor), on 13 December 1946 transformed into United Nations Trust Territories, again a British (successively under senior district officers officiating as Resident, a Special Resident and Commissioners) and a French Trust (under a Haut Commissaire). The Northern British Cameroons which Jada was in, wasn't considered any part of Nigerian territory till the eventual referendum of 1961 after the referendum of 1959 nominated to postpone the decision. It was never under any protectorate of Nigeria, rather it was a Class B mandate state under the British protectorate. You don't automatically extend British protectorate to mean Nigerian protectorate and then pull from within your ass that Jada was Nigerian territory given the above. Don't be stupid 1 Like |
Re: My Take On Atiku's Cameroonian Heritage by neyobills: 7:40pm On Apr 15, 2019 |
kayfra: French Cameroon became Cameroon in Jan 1960,Nigeria also became Nigeria on the the 1st of October 1960,so my question for u is which country was Jada from Oct 2 till the date of the referendum,going by your logic we had 3 countries Nigeria, Cameroon, and British Cameroons right? Perhaps you want to time travel to hand a British territory over to a francophone country with your troops to satisfy your paymasters. |

Re: My Take On Atiku's Cameroonian Heritage by kayfra: 8:24pm On Apr 15, 2019 |
neyobills: Before 1961 and after 1946. We had Nigeria (Country), French Cameroun (Territory under France) and British Cameroons (Territory under the British). Many territories still exists worldwide that aren't considered countries. The islands of Guam and Puerto Rico are examples of territories that are not considered countries. Jada was part of a British territory before 1961, not Nigeria. After 1961 it became part of the country called Nigeria. Get or upgrade your inadequate education and stop making a fool of yourself online. You are fortunate people can't put a face to the El Stupido that you are in person. |

kayfra: You putting up a lot of effort to sound stupid just to please yourself and your paymasters,if Jada was part of a British territory before 1961 can u kindly highlight the name of the British territory. Nigeria gained independence on Oct 1 1960 going by your logic by Oct 2 1960 we had Cameroon, Nigeria and another independent British colony that Jada was part of right. There has never been any historical record of the British having an independent British Cameroons after the independence of Nigeria, I guess u had to time travel to have a meeting with Lord Lugard to dash them a new colony they never had out of the benevolence of your stupidity. |

Re: My Take On Atiku's Cameroonian Heritage by Warship: 3:16pm On Apr 16, 2019 |
neyobills: Atiku is a Nigerian by virtue of the fact that, his part of his Cameroon was administered by the British Nigeria after first world war as war booty gotten after the defeat of Germany. After WW1, Cameroon ceased to be a German colony and was split into 2 of which his part of Cameroon, came under Britain and was administered from Lagos. 1 Like |
