Who's Punishing Gerald?



Gerald, listen. Cool your temper. If you don't, you can only get more punishment. We won't stop talking about Biafra here. And we won't fight to please you. Do you really hate Nigeria that much that you want Igbos to fight again with Nigeria? Or with who? If the sound of Biafra lays a burden on your heart, visit your babe ok?

Jide Afolabi, you get attention here not because of your intelligence.If I were you, I would have known that being loquacious does not equate to being intelligent . There are more reasons we respond to you than not. You are going about your set agenda, so are we.

Expectedly, you dodged treating the issues raised by your "noise" makers in that public lecture. You did not make intelligent attempt to intelligently address the issues raised by participants in the lecture. The purpose of publishing the lecture here by Ezinwanne is to let you correlate what we say here with what your people(your leaders)are saying, and juxtapose it with the mockery you are making of yourself and your people here. The article submitted was not intended, to a large extent, for Biafran audience here. But to draw your attention to the thinking of the Yorubas too. If you are as wise as you desire us to believe, you would have concluded, after reading the article, that you are alone in your one Nigeria propaganda. Your inability, or refusal, to treat important matter importantly makes you the more...

Is Fashola a rascal, Jide? Is he a noise maker?

Gerald, are Fashola and co toothless bulldogs?

Apply reason.

EZINWANNE

I agree with you that there are divisions in Yoruba land but these divisions are issues-based. In Yorubaland, interest is key. And I want someone to tell me what Ibo interest in Nigeria is. A nation that is not united and is always singing discordant tunes find it difficult to achieve any objective.

Yes!... if you stand for nothing, then you most certainly will stand for anything. This is the point I have always advanced. Ibos must rediscover self. You are an important member of the Nigerian family. See what your sons who made money "anyhow" have turned Ibo land to. No respect for elders, playing politics of the stomach (at the detriment of the general good); an average Ibo trader talks to you with his mind fixed on the cash he can command: and therefore, if you have no such cash, you are useless.

In Yorubaland, this is different. When Yorubas are in need of anything, they close ranks. The youths fall in line because the objective is clear to all. How the "spoils of politics" is distributed in our land is our business. I want the Ibos to emulate this and therefore complement our dogged approach to the realisation of whatever we want. In this way, we will checkmate our common adversaries - the north!

Forget about my occasional "yabis". Let us be serious this once ...

Gerlad

Gerlad,
I will feel more comfortable to go straight into business with you. You came in through the window and it will be very unfortunate if I allow you to escape through the door. I have enough time to descend even in the gutter with a village champion of your type.

You wrote yesterday
Do you know who I am?

It is only a psychotic character will ask such question in a public forum where professionals of different backgrounds and status converge. I had wanted to know who you are and your achievements in life until your latest incoherent outburst revealed the qualifications and quality of a man in you. I need not to ask further questions concerning your social status as that will amount to personal litigation with someone I consider as my inferior.

You wrote as follows;
Anonymous, Kendo or whatever wayo names you call yourselves, I just hope you illiterate guys would call your fellow kidnappers to order!.............Gerald

Oh what a Good Samaritan!! Your dialects have exposed your identity and I will respond in the same vein.

Wayo did not start from Kendo. Obasanjo was doing it before I was born thus It will do us lots of good if you will advise OBJ to return his loots. It will help us build more industries to provide jobs for our youths. If you want me to lecture you on the history of Kidnapping in Nigeria I will not hesitate to do so. Do more investigation and see if kidnapping is peculiar to Igbo Land. I would want you to tell us more about the political killings and the ritual killings which at present are the most lucrative jobs for Yoruba youths today. What about OPC and other killing agents in Yoruba land? Hmmmmmm, Sanctimonious outburst indeed!!


We have discussed enough of Igbo problems. Don’t you think that the Yoruba’s equally have avalanche of problems we can deliberate on this forum?

Your race is fast becoming irrelevant in Nigerian politics and that should be a matter of your utmost concern at the moment. I wonder what brought the emergence of South and the North. If the Yoruba race is of that Importance in Nigerian politics, there should be the North, the West, and the East as it used to be. Don’t worry; time will be your best teacher.

We are watching you guys from a distance…………………

Gerald...the man in the mirror

Ok Jide,
That's fine with me.
However you didn't pass any commentaries on the issues I raised.

Gerald,
For a split second...go back and read my write-up again.
Please think before you talk.

You appear too quick to join the fray without knowing what the issues are.

Those writing here have opinions of their own.
I have taken a long look at your effusions and cannot make head or tail out of it.
What is your opinion considering what I wrote about Yoruba?
If you are intelligent enough; (I have my doubts ) you will realize that all I did was to change the topic a little bit from the perennial Igbo to something new: Yoruba.
How does that amount to name calling?
What name did I call you?
Meanwhile, to the best of my knowledge you have never ever contributed to anything here.
Why begin your contribution with a fight.
This speaks volumes of your personality.
You take on Kendo, Anonymous, Massob, Ezinwanne...just about everybody without knowing what is at stake
Next you will look into the mirror and take on the man in the mirror too.

What has transpired between me and you is something like this.
Read below.

Ezinwanne: Gerald...how many fingers am I holding up( I have five fingers up).

Gerald: (Grunt) ehmm, eh...(squinting his eyes) 1 2 3 4 6 7 9 11.
15!

I put up 5 fingers.
Gerald insists it is 15 fingers!

I think this sums it all up.

Now who is drunk???
Answer: The man in the mirror

ALL YOU NEED TO DO TO ACHEIVE THIS TARGET IS TO DEVELOP A COAL TURBINE IN EVERY STATE IN NIGERIA.THE FEREDERAL GOVERNMENT WILL FINANCE IT 100PERCENT AND THE STATE GOVERNMENTS WILL SUPERVISE IT TOGETHER WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.DO NOT GIVE THE MONEY TO THE STATES TO ERECT A COAL TURBINE BECAUSE SOME OF THE STATE GOVERNORS WILL SQUANDER THE MONEY THEREBY MAKING THE PROJECT A MIRAGE.
tHE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WILL FINANCE AND SUPERVISE IT AND CARRY THE STATES ALONG BY MAKING THEM SUPERVISORS OF THE PROJECT TOO SO THAT THERE WILL BE NO LAPSES REGARDING TIME AND PRECISION TO ACHEIVE THIS SET OBJECTIVE WITHIN 6MONTHS.THE EXPERTS CAN WORK DAY AND NIGHT BY ARRANGING SHIFTING.
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ASSEMBLE ALL THE STATE GOVERNORS IN THIS RESPECT NOW FOR VERY SERIOUS DISCUSSION ON HOW TO ERECT A COAL TURBINE IN EVERY STATE IN NIGERIA WITHIN 6MONTHS SO THAT INSTRIAL AND OTHER ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES CAN WAKE UP IN THE COUNTRY.THE DELEBRATION WITH THE STATE GOVERNORS SHOULD NOT BE POLITICISED AND SHOULD NOT BE LONG AS SOME OF THE GOVERNORS ARE NOT SERIOUS MINDED WHEN IT COMES TO PUBLIC GOOD.THE MEETING MUST BE SHORT AT LEAST ONE WEEK AND THE POWER MINISTER ALSO MUST BE ON WORK WITH HIS PERSEC AND DG'S INN THIS RESPECT AND AT THE END OF THE DAY ALL OF WILL HARMONISE THE DELIBERATIONS AND CALL FOR OPEN TENDER FOR THESE COMPANIES FROM THE EASTERN BLOCK IN EUROPE BECAUSE THE EASTER BLOCK PEOPLE KNOWS ABOUT COAL TURBINE BETTER THAN ANYOTHER CLIME IN THIS WORLD.OUR HIGH COMMISSIONS IN THIS COUNTRIES SHOULD BE COMMUNICATED TO SEARCH FOR THESE GUYS IN EASTERN BLOCK SO THAT IT SAVES YOU A LOT OF TIME BECAUSE YOU DO NOT HAVE VERY LONG TIME AT ALL.YOUR TIMETO PERFORM IS SHORT.

THE RAW MATERIAL IS VERY CHEAP.YOU WILL GET COAL FROM ENUGU OR EVEN BUY DRY LOG OF WOODS FROM SOUTHWEST NIGERIA AND BURN THEM ON THE COAL TURBINE AND IT GIVES YOU THE SAME RESULT WITH COAL.
BUT WITH THE RECENT STORIES FROM THE PRESIDENCY ABOUT OUR GAS TURBINES AND HYDRO ENERGY IF YOU FOLLOW THAT YOU WILL END UP THE SAME WAY PREVIOUS GOVERNMENTS ENDED UP WITH OUR ELECTRICITY.
IN VIEW OF THIS ,YOU HAVE TO GO FOR COAL TURBINES NOW AND YOU WILL SEE THAT BIGERIA WILL HAVE ELECTRICITY IN 6MONTHS ALL OVER THE ENTIRE STATES OF NIGERIA.WE NEED THIS COAL TURBINES IN THE INTERIM INORDER TO RECHARGE OUR INDUSTRIAL AND ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES IN NIGERIA.
WHEN OUR ECONOMY BECOMES OKAY WE CAN GO FOR SOLAR ENERGY.BUT FOR NOW WE DO NOT HAVE THAT KIND OF RESOURCES SO WE MUST HANG OUR COAT ACCORDING TO OUR SIZE.FOR NOW IT IS ONLY COAL TURBINE THAT WILL SAVE NIGERIA IN TERMS OF ELECTRICITY GENERATION BECAUSE IT IS NOT ONLY CHEAP TO ERECT AND FABRICATE BUT EQUALLY CHAEP TO MAINTAIN AND NIGERIANS WILL NOT FORGET YOU JONATHAN IF YOU DO THIS.
PLS WORK ON ELECTRICITY FIRST THAT WILL BE YOUR MAGIC WAND.iF YOU TAKE ANY OTHER PROJECT(S)OUTSIDE ELECTRICITY FIRST YOU WILL FAIL WOEFULLY.
IT IS THIS SAME ELECTRICITY THAT FAILED OBASANJO'S GOVERNMENT.HAD IT BEEN OBASANJO FIXED ELECTRICITY HIS NAME WOULD HAVE BEEN WRITTEN ON GOLD.HE WOULD HAVE VEN GOTTEN THE THIRD TERM WITHOUT ANY STRESS.
FIX ELECTRICITY FIRST AND EVERYOTHERBTHING YOU WANT IN NIGERIA YOU WILL GET IT WITHOUT STRESS.

Ibori's arrest in Dubai

James Ibori says he is innocent of all the charges of embezellment and money laundering,yet he fled Nigeria for Dubai;and he is all over the places.He used the youths in Oghara,his home town,to attack the law officers so he could evade justice. This kids do not know any better.

It is very unfortunate to see these kids trying to protect their former governor who they see as a hero and a benevolent benefactor being hounded by Nigeria government.Their actions reveal the warped value system of our time. They see Ibori as a stinkingly rich individual who we all know got his money by misappropriating and looting of his state treasury.As a former governor, there is a limit to the number of zeros after a figure he can legitimately make during his tenure, may be 250 million naira in eight years of service,i.e.salaries and allowances.

We were told he financed the PDP and Yar'Adua during the 2007 election that saw Yar'Adua into the presidency.This was why he became an untouchable during Yar'Adua's tenure and that inflence led to his acquital from all charges the first time around. Maybe Yar'Adua perverted justice by intervening on his behalf.

It is now a new era and a new administration and Jonathan wants to do what is right by seeing that justice is carried out to its logical conclusion and for Nigerians to see that there will not be a sacred cow that can be above the laws of the land. Jonathan wants to ensure that anyone accused of corruptly enriching himself is brought to justice.

Ibori must be repartriated to Nigeria to answer the new charges against him. If he has nothing to hide, he should not fight extradiction. Jonathan and Nigeria courts will be fair to him.Justice will be seen to have been done in his case.

RE: Yoruba Nation!

Wao! Ezinwanne ... let me formally welcome you back to the forum. I missed you! In your absence, charlatans like Ofekendo took over thereby making the forum less educative and interesting. Stanley tried to hold fort but you know now, he cannot be another Ezinwanne. Ejiofor has run out of those over used high sounding words and has recently resorted to barring his anus open in the public for whoever to come and lick! You and I know what to call a man who works naked on the street.

So, that in a nutshell has been the lots of the forum in your absence. Once more, you are welcome back!

I am refreshed that you attended (or did you just read) the Afenifere Renewal Group's public lecture. Did you observe the sequence of events? Did you notice that all of them spoke with one voice while, knowing that unity is strength? Can you compare their gathering with a typical one by Ohaneze?

I read your comment also on my assertion that the Ikemba of Nnewi deserved a better deal from IBB. IBB sent miscreants to your Field Marshal Ojukwu to inform him that he(IBB) was going to run for the 2011 Presidential election. Is that not an insult on the person of Ojukwu? The great Zik would not have descended to grant an audience to such "nobodies". But Dim Ojukwu received them and even went a step further by naming IBB Okechukwu!!! This is intended to make IBB marketable in Ibo land. If this is not disgusting, please help me with a better word.

In all dear friend, let us close ranks and think of how Nigeria may be better for us. I insist, we all are better off in a reformed Nigeria than in our separate holes.

Gerald or Jide Afolabi

Gerald, when I read your sudden rustic rejoinder I declined over responding to your incomprehensive and baseless arguments until you proved me wrong with your continuous prattling when you wrote as follows.

Do you know who I am? Whom are you trying to muzzle?.............Gerald

With your do you know who I am syndrome, you ended up writing not better than educated illiterate

Who are you if I may ask?

I don’t blame you. I don’t have your time at the moment until you foolishly come up with more self destructive antics. Only then, I will teach you a better lesson you will never forget on this forum.

Stop telling people to do this and that. Tell the world how your efforts have changed the living standard of ordinary Nigerians.

Do you know who I am indeed!!!

I will not say much at the moment until I read your reply once again.

President Goodluck Jonathan should contest in the 2011 polls

The northeners & other good people of Nigeria should prove to the world that they are democrats, by withdrawing the whole lot of pressure placed on Jonathan over his yet to be declared ambition in the 2011 polls. They should remember that we are ONE NIGERIA!!!

Ibori vs Babangida.....3.6 trillion gulf oil windfall, 63.66 billion IMF loan. 85.98 billion wasted on electoral transition, 156.2 billion used in funding political parties and building secretariats for NRC and SDP. 87.6 billion on police uniforms and police reform.Unquantifiable human loss...the army generals plane crash, Dele Giwa mysterious bomb death, Lofty but non directional policies:People's bank, DFRRI, NDE, SAP etc etc etc.

Ibori vs Abusalami Abubakar: 128 billion turn around maintenance of refineries, 88.6 billion on NEPA electrification projects, 120 billion on 1999 elections.

Ibori vs Buba Maruwa.... 156 billion waste bin projects in Lagos state, 56 billion on crime control in Lagos state.

Ibori vs Obasanjo.....2.3 trillion on power project, 98.6 billion Obasanjo liberary project, 7.8 trillion privatization project, Transcorp, Oando, 56.8 billion Nigeria Airways privatization, 40 million pounds presidential jet, 32.67 billion 2003 election, Halliburtton scandal, Bola Ige death, Odi massacre, Zaki Biam massacre,32.6 billion third term bid, Apo six killings, Harry Marshall killing, etc etc etc.

Fellow Nigerians, my heart bleeds, note here all these money do not include their fixed assets, their miscellaneous expenditures, money for their house maintenance, to their harlots friends, their relations, other dirty deals. Next week I promise to compile those of his fellow ex and serving governors. I vow that these monies stolen from our national purse must be paid back very soon. Nigerians must shun USA, FRANCE, BRITAIN as they abet and facilitate these crimes. Some stupid fellow Nigerian youths who help them to smuggle and deposit these monies must regret now or in nearest future. LETS US RE-THINK. I blame Gideon Orkar, El-Mustapha because God gave them the opportunity to handle the situation like Jerry Rawlings of Ghana, but they were myopic. Ibori should seek the face of God and do restitution of all that he stole else he will die, but he is a lesser criminal compared with others. Nigerian youths should shun cultism, avarice, thuggery, pride and face the challenges of time in all facets of our existence. Nigeria has all it takes to surpass America and the so called developed nations. The youths must chase away the oppressors,the vultures.... oh my heart bleeds, they must pay back in life and in death, from generation to generation.

Jonathan For President??

SENATOR Joseph Kennedy Nyik-wagh Waku is the National Vice chairman of Arewa Consultative Forum, ACF. He represented Benue North-West Senatorial District on the platform of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) between 1999 and 2003 in the Senate.

In this interview with Vanguard in Kaduna, Waku warned the Acting President, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan not to go against the zoning arrangement in the PDP; saying that Obasanjo was misadvising him on the issue in his belief that the North cannot speak with one voice. He also spoke on politics in Benue State and why the Idoma man where David Mark hails can never become the governor

---------------------------------------------------------------

The above mentioned senator who said that something will happen if Jonathan run for president..

I agree with him because he is entitle to his opinion, but i want to let him know that what will Happen indeed is that: he will not live to witness his Inuguration if he eventually contest.
