Inherited ?

Why are you pretending you don’t know that terrorism is one of the manifestos of APC, that’s why it is still thriving?

Yeye people na I’m all of Una be.

You go cry tire. We have kicked out Goatluck Jonathan, so continue weeping

I don't even understand their logic. Between a tree that just germinated and is few weeks old and a tree that is ten years old, which one is easier to cut? They want to compare the opportunity that Goatluck had to destroy terrorism at its inception and infancy with what Jagaban inherited.

A prominent Northern elder and public commentator, Alhaji Dabo Sambo, has warned President Bola Ahmed Tinubu that unless he urgently tackles insecurity and banditry, particularly in northern Nigeria, his chances of winning the 2027 presidential election will be slim.

Briefing newsmen, Alhaji Sambo, emphasized that insecurity remains the greatest threat facing the country, with lives and property constantly at risk.



He noted that restoring safety and stability is the primary function of any government, and failure to deliver on this front could cost the President re-election.


“Food is scarce in Nigeria and people are hungry,” Sambo stated, linking the growing food crisis to insecurity in the North-East and North-West—regions responsible for over 60% of the country’s agricultural output.

According to him, farmers are fleeing their lands due to banditry, kidnapping, and terrorist activities, causing a major drop in food production and rising prices.

He also pointed out the economic consequences of insecurity, including a weakened naira, high transportation costs, and rising inflation that are draining the savings of ordinary Nigerians.

Sambo issued a direct call to President Tinubu, urging him to resolve the insecurity crisis within the next six months and revive local agriculture within a year.

“If President Tinubu refuses to wipe out the security challenges, he will definitely not win the 2027 election,” he warned, drawing parallels with former President Goodluck Jonathan’s defeat in 2015, which he also attributed to unchecked insecurity.

“The era of carton noodles and salt distribution during campaigns is over,” he said. “People want security and food. Without these, they will not vote,” he said.

Sambo dismissed Tinubu’s political rivals as lacking credible plans to transform Nigeria, but insisted that if the president does not address the root causes of insecurity and economic hardship, even rigging structures will not save his re-election bid.

He added that President Tinubu must deal with the real enemies within his circle, saying the visible competitors are not the problem it’s the failure to act decisively on security and food production that could end his presidency.”

He further cited recent revelations from the U.S. Congress implicating the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) in allegedly funding Boko Haram claims also echoed by Nigeria’s Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa. Sambo called on the Nigerian government to stop pretending and confront these international influences head-on.

Look at this dingbat. Is it Tinubu that started insecurities in the North? You're using what your people started as a reason to not Tinubu. Even Buhari who is Fulani couldn't do for 8 years.

Mabuggi88:
You can't hear them say they are disgracing Nigeria. But once they detect another name there, they will invade they thread with venoms and brimstones.

Maybe you need eye salve to see that the whole of the south is well represented.

Irony1:


You say any truth and there is nothing hurting in your statements because they are lies and all you are saying is from the position of ignorance you want to open the eyes of ignorant ones. that is the joke of the century coming from someone who is ignorant coupled with dangerous obsession laced with hatred and bigotry.

Thank you. Those that have learned have learned. Just be looking.

Ttalk:


Don't mind them, that's why they want to claim Lagos because of Igbosere and Igbobi

And even Oyigbo. They are claiming Ijebu Igbo, Ejigbo, igboho, Igboora etc. They're asking for trouble. Leave them.

Konquest:

Succinctly stated.

The concept of an Ibo tribe is purely a British Colonial creation that gained traction after 1900. Prior to that period, these groups such as the Ngwa, Owerre, Awka, Nsukka, etc, didn't see themselves in that light. Even the name Ibo [Igbo, or Igbon by the Benin-Edo, or Onigbo as used by the Igalas who sold human slaves captured in the Ibo interior to Aboh now in Delta State] was used as a condescending or derogatory term by other people against the interior Ibos pre-1900. That'show that name came to be collectively used by others and the Colonialists to refer to them down the line.

I will attached the screen shots of advanced history books that CLEARLY show these pure facts of history.

Succinctly put.

Irony1:


From your statement, you are clearly a yoruba being used to create ethnic tension. Bro even your statement shows how ignorant your submission is. You are clearly a Yoruba person and you have no idea or understanding of the politics of old eastern region.

Oga, whether I am a Yoruba person or not is inconsequential to my submission. I have spoken the truth and I know it hurts. As for creating ethnic tension, I don't think I have said anything to cause that. I only spoke the truth and opened the eye of the ignorant ones to it.

oluwaahmed:

Fabricated stories! My friend this was written by Brig Gen Cyrillic iweze, who was NDA best graduating student in 1967 and fought for the nigeria army against his people. He narrates all the genocide against his people when biafra forces fell in asaba, PHC & calabar. Why are you surprised? isn't it the same thing NA does anytime their personnel are killed . They carry out reprisal against the community nau

You're either an IPOB propagandist masquerading as a Yoruba boy or you're a Yoruba but who has been fed with lies. Ibos owed no space in today's SS except those in which they settled in at the kindness and generosity of their hosts.

gidgiddy:


That is the lie called 'one Nigeria' that they told all of us, that every part of Nigeria belongs to every Nigerian and that you can infringe on the ancestral part of anywhere in Nigeria and participate in the politics of anywhere in Nigeria

We all know this is not true, and we shouldn't continue with this lie. That's why we must denounce the age old like called one Nigeria, shake hands, go our seperate ways and everyone stay in their lane

Whoever told you that any part of Nigeria belongs to you is a big mook. I won't say more than that. I have gone into lengthy details on your comment before.

oluwaahmed:

Let me give you historical fact of why ilwerres say they are not igbo. After PHC fell to nigeria army, the NA went on a killing spree of civilians. They did so in PortHarcourt, Asaba, cross-river. The people had to beg, and yakubu Goloss told them to deny being igbo & biafran in order to prove their loyalty to one Nigeria. They were also giving Identity cards and carried everywhere they went even in lagos and benin

That is a big lie. You can't fool anyone here with fabricated stories. Can you imagine the audacity!!

chrisxxx:

U dey fund slave for this century no be so?
An Ikwerre man is colonising you people. Una think Na only una Sabi something.

They always believe they're smarter than everybody. To them, everybody is a fool. But as usual, with any move they make, they always shoot themselves in the foot.

Irony1:


Oga go and read how it was changed to Oyibo. Obigbo is an igbo community, the Ndoki to be precise and that is their ancestral home. You are clearly a yoruba person and you have no idea, so it is wise you just remain silent and stop talking.

When Ibos settle in a strange land, after like 30 to 50 years, they form a community and start claiming indigenous. That has always been their M.O. They suddenly start dragging ancestry to the land with their host. And that is clearly the case with every Ibo community in the SS. You people are already laying the ground work for claiming Yoruba spaces and we're waiting for you, watching you, no matter how long you wait. You're already spreading propaganda that every Yoruba space that has "igbo" as apart of the spelling, no matter the pronunciation, is your land. I assure you, you will get hurt in the process. We're watching.

Irony1:


So which tribe are the Ndoki? The owners of obigbo?

The problem with you guys is that you think any place that has "gbo" either starting or ending, belongs to Ibos. That's the height of delusion and disingenuity. Very annoying!!

viodemus:
Igbos, have you seen how the others like it when igbos deny their identity, the enemies love it. Now, what oga amaechi said was that he had to forefront his igboness, to kinda let others know that the igbos are not divided, and that if one igbo clan is in trouble, all igbos are in trouble. If one igbo clan is successful, every one will and spread the progress.


Just look at how excited these igbo haters get whrn they think or see any form of igbo division. even though, amaechi didn't say what they're thinking. This news go charge all their sexual genitals, and if you mark today and 9 months later, they will experience new born babies, all because of this kind of news.


Igbos, in summary, these people live to make sure the igbos are caged slaves and are systematically eliminated, and also economically strangulated. So, can you imagine their anger, to know that the people they have tried to, and constantly try to eliminate, oppress, and suppress, are the majority tribe, the most thriving, the vast populace, etc.

A person said he is not Ibo, you're annoyed. Why is it difficult for you to just accept a simple statement. You people are the only ethnic group that likes to determine other people's identity. Isn't that preposterous? Why do you want to sustain that "majority tribe" narrative by swallowing other ethnic groups? You just find it so difficult to swallow facts. Ikwerres are not Ibos. Period!!

ednut1:
is the south el dorado? Is the north responsible for all the agberos in lagos or the boys in Niger delta collecting “deve” or bursting pipes. Is the north responsible for the likes of wike and okowa using state funds for elections. Abeg abeg

You willfully omitted Anambra, the capital of Agberoism.

SmartPolician:
Other countries are creating fertile lands for innovation, but Nigeria under Tinubu has become a fertile ground for breeding new terrorist groups!

Go and look in the mirror.

Nobody ever told you that every part of Nigeria belongs to you. That's a lie from the pit of hell or at best a figment of your imagination. But I strongly suspect that it's one of your numerous ruses and instruments of gaslighting and manipulation. Nigeria, from it inception as a British creation had never been lumped up as one. It started as North/South. Then North, East and West. Then North, East, West and Midwest. Then NW, NE, NC, SE, SW and SS. One thing had remained constant throughout the history of these metamorphosis; there was always a recognition of dichotomies along cultural and ethnic lines. So nobody ever, ever told you that everywhere belongs to you. Anyone who thinks that way is a thief and a subterfuge invader. You can live anywhere in Nigeria, but everywhere doesn't belong to you. Again, if that is what Ibos are advocating for,let charity begin at home.

franchasng:
What stops this Yoruba group from coming out openly to seek for an independent Yoruba nation where Yorubas will have all the national and international backing to do whatever they love in their nation?


What this Yoruba group is indirectly saying is that Nigeria is not one and can never be one yet they keep pretending and always at the forefront of attacking anybody that talks about peaceful division of Nigeria.


For how long are we going to continue with this unnecessary fights when we all know that we are not one and can never be? Why can't we simply agree to divide and have a peaceful prosperous future devoid of ethnic attacks and hatred?



Governors set up a committee to make an appeal to their fellow Governors yet these ethnocentric people see everything wrong in it.



God and nature will definitely shame you all, keep basking in your foolishness

Ok, Nigeria is not one. Deal with it. If not that you people are disingenuous, how can you say that Nigeria is a nation of one people when there are at least 10 distinct ethnic groups comprising of hundreds of tribes. Those ethnic groups have their distinct values, morality, cultures, languages, world views and spaces, which ought to be respected and validated as components of what will define our unity. Yet, a particular ethnic group, albeit the only ethnic group, in Nigeria, believe that they can just override these differences and create a fusion out of which their culture will be the only one surviving. You have tried it before and you fail. You will continue to fail and get decimated in the process.

gidgiddy:


And we have been telling them that the best thing is dissolve the country let everyone go their way because it's glaring to even a blind man that 'one Nigeria' is a big fraud

The country needs not be dissolved before you ask your governors to perform their duties. One Nigeria doesn't mean there are no boundaries to respect or that you have the rights to infringe on ancestral spaces or other people's politics. If that's what you want, then let your charity begin at home. You people want to eat your cake and have it but you will get hurt in the process.

jmoore:

Lack of education has created many agberos who don't know the rights of Nigerians

Go and teach them the rights of dragging spaces with owners since you're more educated. You people will get what's coming to you.

Wizardslayer:
They still call it a united Nigeria when in actual sense it's disunited Nigeria.

Nigeria were never meant or suppose to be a country.

Nigeria is not a humongous geographical entity with no structure, boundaries and distinct cultures. That is why geopolitical zones were made clear for all to see. That is why States were created for everyone. Any attempt to use "one Nigeria" to appropriate other people's spaces would be met with extreme pushback.

MadamExcellency:
We are discussing the Lagos State government, not the Yoruba regional government. What surprises me is that individuals who have no investment or presence in Lagos State believe they have a say in its affairs simply because they are Yoruba. Ask yourself: has your choice in Lagos matters put food on your table? Be wise and stop holding grudges against yourself.

Gaslighter!! Guilt tripper. The blackmail and manipulation works no more.

Borrow2222:
Nonsense group making so much noise.

I'm glad to see the SE governors standing up for their people.

Unlike before, they're usually sleeping ducks.

Everybody's eyes are getting clearer now. At least let Hope Uzodinma do something right for once.

If they like, let them climb ladder , the Lagos State government will do their job so that Lagos will stop smelling and getting flooded.

Goodvibes007:
I love how there are now so many pressure groups standing up for the interest of the SW.

This became a necessity after late Pa Adebanjo and Dele Farotimi created a funny faction of Afenifere that people on X now call Ohanifere in a bid to hijack the real Afenifere.

That Dele bloke needs to be examined by psychiatrists.

You people don't allow history to teach you. You still go around looking for trouble, pouncing on issues that has no concern to you. Yoruba is not a soft target for you to trample on or invade. My best advise for you is to stay away from Yoruba affairs and conduct a mass exodus to your region since you all desire a Biafra.

The road itself is part of the " creating an enabling environment for business to thrive". It's also a means of creating employment and empowering local SMEs such as suppliers of chippings, laterite, asphalt etc. we're too focused on free money.

Don't mind them. Arm chair analysts.
