This woman is confused, she was just recognized as a good writer not a chieftaincy title.

She has deceived so many girls claiming useless feminist. Making them unmarried while she is married and comes from a rich family.

She even married a whiteman....her oppressor, the same people she condemned in her books

ezenwajosh:
Read books

You read books.



2023? And she is the first female chief?

And you call it the only tribe that gives women power in Africa?

You people are so foolish with your empty chest beating as usual.


Since pre-colonial, yorubas have female chiefs...
Iyalode, iyaloja etc

ezenwajosh:
That is Igbo for you


The only tribe that gives women power in Africa

Why are there more Nigerians in South Africa than South Africans in Nigeria.igbos are travelers and there are lots of yorubas in igbo land as well

Igbos are travellers? Yes! Agreed!

But, there are more Igbos living in the east than anywhere else, why can't the ones living in the east develop east? Is it only when they come out of east they suddenly get sense?

Are the millions of Igbos currently living in the east handicap?

MrMaestro:

Yorubas are not business minded, yet three of their states are in the top 6 of highest IGR.

Yorubas are not business minded, yet they have more tech billionaires than all other regions combined. (Flutterwave, Paystack, Calendly, etc.)

Yorubas are not business minded, yet a Yoruba man runs a private equity firm that BOUGHT Gatwick Airport in London

Yorubas are not business minded, yet they have the most economically viable region in the entire country.

Guy, there aren't more Igbos in the southwest than there is in the south east. If igbos were greater business men, the higher concentration of Igbos in the south east should at least make the SE second to the SW in IGR. Instead they're second to last. You all need to face reality. Yorubas are better at business, and creating structure and organization as a group. Igbos are good at being solopreneurs. That doesn't build a business and it certainly doesn't build a nation. You need to understand the difference between the two.

End of discussion

FG alerting security agents?

Is it not the security agents that are supposed to alert FG and others?

I am now prepared to be open to the possibility that Tinubu can become president if no one outsmarts him.

Please stop all this nonsense talk. Sophie was one night stand but she gave him.the most beautiful and loved daughter

Please between one night stand and dared, courted and engaged, who is having the more international disgrace?

One night stand but davido decided to fly her in his PJ .

I said it her that time that Chioma is a foolish and selfish girl. You think you could just come from nowhere to snatch davido away from his kids? Assurance got to much into her fish brain that she thot she was on top of the world. If she didnt sit up, she will never enjoy what others are enjoying. No be only her born son now? So she and her family shouldn't think they can use Ify to torment him. She should just borrow her self sense and calmly get something from him. I doubt if she has brain to get anything to establish herself. She was supposed to finish her studies but she dropped out. Stupid girl that was allowing herself and b33bs to be squeezed on internet. Is that one a wife material. I now see shes really a gold digger.

Business sense she no get, book she no sabi so how do you expect a man to value you. If sophie was senseless and had no plans , do you think davido wondnt have forgotten her since? But look at her still enjoying the presence of that guy even on SM

Beef and tribalism kill everyone against sophie. You all dont mention haileys mum ooo only this Sophie when shes not even youruba.

The way ibo guys are rushing yoruba girls and marrying them now is really alarming. I have witnessed like 5 already and still.counting.

Oga be calming down

No be fight and no be tribal things

Apparently, Davido is the one with the issues.

Why do we choose to pick between the girls on who to bash or take sides with? When the culprit is Davido

She led the girls on...don't forget.

Why do we want to dignify deceit?

Cakhama:
The same people wailing that Chioma is being disrespected insulted Sophie like hell.

They called her all sorts of names, yet she held herself together. She never responded to any name calling. She went on with her life composed and never ever disrespected either Chioma or Davido.

Now it's Chioma's turn and the same people who attempted to drive Sophie to suicide are walking around with hypertension.

They should all take a seat.

Chioma and Sophie are two totally different cases

Davido didn't date Sophie....they had one night stand

Davido dated, courted, engaged Chioma

Can you see?

slawormiir:
Damnnn niggarrrr...

That excuse won't fly

Buhari is gonna abandon this niggarrrr at the eleventh hour

Over 3 hours and no single like on your comment

Just go and rethink how irrelevant and useless people on here have begun to see you.

Anigreat:









Jagaban nearly lose all his teeth today in Kaduna.

Rumour has that he felt off stage and cover his face on the tiles floor. It was so shameful and so sad at the same time.

Though some says he slumped we really dont know which one to take. But the truth still remains that he's not strong to rule this country, so he shouldn't even be an option.

https://nairaland.macsoftware.info/6479758/tinubu-slumps-arewa-lecture-series

It's a sign he will be your next president

Buhari also slumped during APC campaigns in 2015

Orji Uzor Kalu wants to play 419 on APC....going round everywhere to give impression of one serious presidential candidate.

Time to show relevance in his base...nothing!

Reno stay one place

Stop confusing your destiny

Only you...Pastor, Politician, Activist, counsellor, Motivational speaker, Men's Coach?

Choose a hustle bro!

Lalasticlala the story can't bite like a snake

Nigerian history without Nnamdi Azikiwe and Obafemi Awolowo is impossible.

Zik and Awo were clerks, teachers, journalists and politicians. The former dropped his colonial name Benjamin, the later put aside his Christian name Jeremiah. As politicians they were great rivals. Zik ended up as Nigeria’s First President after serving as the last Governor–General. The Presidency eluded Awo. In 1979, the Supreme Court had to rely on creative political mathematics to knock out Awo who had served as the de facto number two man under Yakubu Gowon between 1967 and 1971.

The Maherson Constitution took effect in 1951 and called for indirect elections to the regional assemblies via electoral colleges. Like he had for the Richards Constitution five years earlier, Zik opposed but chose to contest so he’d have the opportunity to change the constitution. On November 23, 1951, about a month to the elections, Zik was quoted by the Daily Times as saying, “So far as I am concerned, personally, my aim in trying to get a majority in the regional and central legislatures is to firmly entrench NCNCers in a strategic position where we would create a deadlock and paralyse the machinery of government and thus rip the Maherson Constitution and usher in a democratic one.

“This means that if we come to power, we shall not only refuse to become ministers, but we shall use our majority to prevent budgets from being ed.”

Awo did not agree with Zik’s plan, but crucially, if Zik’s colleagues had understood his intent to torpedo the government, things may have been different.

Zik’s plan was simple. If the NCNC had won in the West, it would have, by the dictates of the subsisting Maherson Constitution of 1951 been in a position to produce the four central ministers due the Western Region as well as the representatives for the Western Region in the Central Legislature. It would have used that majority to paralyse governance from the centre in much the same way as it ultimately did in the Eastern Region in 1953. There would have been no ministers or premiers in both southern regions as well as at the national level. Indeed, the central government in Lagos and the regional governments in the east and west would have been torpedoed in 1952 and what became the Lyttleton Constitution of 1954 would have come in 1952.

In retrospect, it is plausible that this was the reason why Zik did not bother offering ministerial appointments to his party , or other groups like the IPP that he hoped to ally with. For Zik, the constitutional arrangement would have been torpedoed before the need for any such appointments could have arisen, thereby speeding up the decolonisation process, but crucially, he failed to explain this to his allies.

After the elections were held, and many NCNC became aware of a version of Zik’s plans, they changed their minds, and aligned with Awo. However, even after the AG had taken the reins of power in Ibadan, the Western NCNC still insisted that Zik and Adeleke Adedoyin proceed to the central legislature in Lagos.

Another miscalculation by Zik was his belief that in the event of an AG victory in the election, Awo would cooperate with him to achieve his own objective and speedily secure national independence for Nigeria.

Why did Awo not immediately cooperate with Zik as expected upon coming to power in the West?

Unlike the other NCNC , Awo was intelligent enough to understand what Zik proposed and its workability. But perhaps he imagined that helping Zik paralyse government would entail pulling down governments in the regions as well, which was not in his interest.

If Zik’s proposal of paralysing government had flown, it would have meant repeating the elections under a new constitution, possibly through the universal adult suffrage that the NCNC had been rooting for. Awo could not be sure that his party would, at that point, win a repeat election in the West.

The only real chance Awo had of winning the Western Region election in 1951 was through indirect elections, the format used in 1951, in which manipulation, such as using the Obas to populate the electoral colleges with pliable electors, were possible.

Put more bluntly, the difference between Awo and Zik was this – Awo was a seasoned political animal who understood that politics is first about self-interest. Zik had his head in the clouds. Unfortunately, Zik, after the defeat, rather than staying back in the West and becoming opposition, went back to the East, in order to get into power.
His retreat set the stage for the misconception among Zik’s Igbo ethnic group that Awo had used the tribal card, and events fifteen years later strengthened that view. The political relationship between the Igbo and the Yoruba has not recovered since, and both groups have hurt themselves politically because of that mutual mistrust.

I am of the opinion that post-independence Southern Nigeria adopted Zik’s dreamy approach of dreamy positions rather than Awo’s hard-nosed approach of self-interest. It still affects us today. In politics, things are not about “right” or “wrong”, but about “interests”. There is no room for holding grudges, especially if history shows that those grudges hurt you. I was privy to a recent survey which showed that more than 80% of both Igbo and Yoruba respondents identified ‘the North’ as the problem with Nigeria. However, asked if they’d be willing to work together to overcome ‘the North’, respondents demurred. I do not understand this self-flagellation because of two men long dead.

Since 1951, the Igbo have chosen to ally with ‘the North’ against the Yoruba, and the Yoruba, since 1951 have chosen to ally with ‘the North’ against the Igbo. Given that Nigeria is not quite working, does it not make sense for the Igbo and the Yoruba to ally with each other politically against ‘the North’, just once and see if Nigeria will have a different political outcome? The numbers this, but asides the recent “Handshake Across The Niger”, we’ve not seen much in that direction, and even the Handshake appears to have cooled a little months after the event was held in Enugu.

The refusal of these two groups to cooperate, because of a bit of miscommunication 67 years ago, has got to be the longest running bit of tomfoolery in Nigeria’s history.

E be tinz

Just N350, 000 fine?

We are not ready to tackle fraud in this country

xandy84:
21 Supreme court judges !!! That is unnecessary duplication of offices at the expense of tax payers. United States with almost twice population of Nigeria has 9 Supreme court judges. What is Nigeria doing with 21 judges? We need to trim those judges to five for real.

United States has supreme courts in all the 53 states

https://www.independent.ng/2023-if-zoning-presidency-to-north-will-make-pdp-win-i--it-wike/

Wike has killed any Igbo ambition with this.

He knows if it were to be zoned to south, the Igbos have good claim to it

bigfish3k:

The promising development that they have shown is how igbos are succeeding in their businesses all across the nation

The igbo DNA is investment inclined not like SW and the North that are consumption inclined.

If igbman rule Nigeria,
He will invest and make more money for Nigeria before using the profits made for infrastructure in that way the country will be richer instead of this borrowing attitude that the north is displaying.

Succeeding in business doesn't amount to succeeding politics/governance

They are totally different....

You know Trump was a more successful businessman than any Igbo man alive?...he was a complete failure in politics/governance

bigfish3k:

You can't compare president and governors.

Given the 1999 constitution.
Governors are ruling from a disadvantaged position. They can't change anything since the constitution and foundation of the country is faulty even if they have utmost good faith in mind

Hope you can see how insecurity is dealing with them because of the faulty constitution that we operate

Even with the so called disadvantage position...what promising development have they shown?

bigfish3k:

Giving igbo the ticket is rewarding justice.

If you like the status quo then hold on to it
Igbo man just need the ticket to clean up the mess called Nigeria that you people have been mes since 1970 that the igbos left power.

that Nigeria had it's hay days when igbos held sway

The way Ikpeazu, Uzor Kalu, Umahi, Ugwuanyi, Rochas Okorocha, Obiano etc cleaned up Igbo states?

Igbo states is now like Dubai

bigfish3k:

Tinubu urchins spotted

If you vote Tinubu in 2023 that means you are rewarding evil

Hope you can see the evil he foisted on Nigeria because of greed

But you want "the evil" (APC/Buhari) Tinubu foisted to hand over power to Igbo man?

That would be rewarding....what...?

Una no wise....if una continue to call Buhari/APC evil and expect to get Igbo ticket

Dasuks:


The mom is Edo. Mrs Bose. And dude came up in MIS in PH before Corona in Lagos. Very much a part of the core PH GRA crowd. It doesnt make sense to not speak Yoruba if u can , esp when ure increasingly Lagos based. But that doesnt make u Yoruba.

His Mom is Yoruba

Burna was born in Lagos

His Mom was part of Fela Kuti's backup band which explains burna's style of music as it is Fela's style reloaded.

What are you even trying to say? Abegi!

Kriss216:

Burna boy is from Rivers State.


Wizkid's name was omitted from the nomination list initially before he begged Beyoncè to help add his name.


Stop making unnecessary noise over nothing!

Burnaboy is more Yoruba than...'rivers'

His mom is Yoruba
And he communicate more in his mother tongue

Make them flex

Na dem time

Your own time go come soon

Congratulations in place
