The difference between June 12 public holidays in the South West and the IPOB's sit at home order in the South East is very simple and crystal clear...June 12 holidays - declared by elected governors who have the mandate of the people and the authority to make such declarations.Sit at home - ordered by self appointed non elected group that do not have the mandate of the people or the authority to issue such orders.Put differently,...
Northern Youth Forum is just the same thing as IPOB.They are unelected self appointed people who try to speak on behalf of people that never asked them to speak for them.They both see the older politicians in their regions as ineffective and they both insult and abuse other ethnic groups.If care is not taken, these two groups will set Nigeria ablaze.Those who have refused to condemn some actions of either group due to fear will ultimately...
The only way Ndigbo can prove that they are not interested in the crude oil outside Igboland is by restricting their quest for an independent Igbo nation to the 5 South East states otherwise insults and snide remarks from ethnic groups that represent fractions of the whole population in their own states would continue.We have over 300 ethnic nationalities in Nigeria, right?Igbo is one of them and they are found in 5 states in the South...
There is nothing wrong with anyone asking their members to sit at home to mark any event.The only time the government should step in and get involved is when anyone or a group of people tries to force people to sit at home against their will by physically preventing them from moving around since every Nigerian has the right of free movement.The key issue here is that Mr A's actions should not in any way affect...
My life is far more important to me than this Mobil job.The statement above made some 15 years ago was what I told a colleague that was heading to the same offshore platform I was supposed to go to in order to relieve another colleague who needed to be in Germany as at that time when he told me that he was familiar with that particular platform and that there was no functional communication equipment there...
Thank God PMB came back alive. Let him address Nigerians and get back to work.Most importantly, let him consolidate on the few positive developments recorded by his VP while he was away in London.-----------------------------------President Muhammadu Buhari arrived the country Friday at about 4 a.m., 51 days after he left the country on a medical vacation, a breaking news flashed online by THISDAY about an hour ago said.However, when News Express called Presidential Spokesman Femi Adesina some...
What did GEJ do when a major political problem came up after Yar'adua died in office as regards 2011 presidential election?PDP zoning formula favored return to power to the North in 2011 so that the North would complete the maximum 8 years (2 terms) since OBJ did 8 years in office.The PDP chairman Chief Vincent Ogbuluafor made it clear that PDP would respect the zoning formula which would have effectively zoned the presidency to the South...
Do not venture into a business you do not understand otherwise the business will either fail or become an avenue for those that understand the business to reap you off.I advised him to stick to his microphone and achieve more but some Nigerians wrongly assumed that I was denying him his fundamental human right even when no one was sure if the idea was his or if he was being used or sponsored by someone or...
Any Igbo man that encourages and supports the idea of our unarmed youths being gunned down by security agents while protesting or marching for Biafra is a very wicked person.Without the involvement of the political class Biafra project is dead on arrival. Only a thoroughly ignorant person will argue otherwise because even the Biafra that existed between 1967 and 1970 became possible because it was declared by the political class in Nigerians political system. Watch Fr...
