Personally I made such mistake. We have a inconsistent policies in Nigeria and it's not really ideal!

[Instablog9ja @instablog9ja]

Four years ago, one of my wealthy friends began to invest his money abroad. I disagreed with him & urged him to rethink his action in the interest of his country. He blamed his action on policy inconsistencies & shenanigans of interest groups. That friend has been taunting me in the past few days, saying he warned me and that he has been proven right. — Dangote

“Who were the people being maltreated and suffering malnutrition in the rebel controlled areas? They are the Ibibio, the Efik, the Rivers, the Yoruba and Hausa people held there.” - Col. Benjamin Adekunle.

Majority of the children, women and the aged who d!ed of hunger during the Nigeria-Biafra war were the people from Ethnic Minority Groups in today’s Rivers State, Akwa Ibom State, Cross River State and Bayelsa State who were forced out from their homes and taken to refugee and concentration camps in today’s South-East Nigeria.

Ojukwu refused to feed them with the foods available and also refused food aide by Air all because he wanted to use pictures and videos of malnourished children as tool for propaganda to garner sympathy and get recognition from foreign countries. This is why the PR he hired to do his dirty job, Mr. Robert Goldstein resigned from the job in August 17, 1968 and returned the $400,000 (588.8 Million Naira in todays FX) he was paid after discovering that Ojukwu was purposely refusing to allow the starving children to be fed.

Ojukwu was a very wicked man and a cøward who later ran away from the war to another country dressed like a woman.

Those f00ls at the National Assembly are the major problem of the development of the country called Nigeria.

Reverting To The Old National Anthem Was a Big Mistake

If I look sad in the attached photo, it is for a reason. My heart is very heavy about Nigeria right now because, in my opinion, we just took a giant step backwards in our national journey. Now, do not get me wrong, I support the current economic policies of my country. Fuel subsidy removal and Naira flotation are necessary policies that any lover of Nigeria should adhere to regardless of party affiliation.

One of the most unnecessary acts of governance in Nigeria in recent times is the law returning the old National Anthem. First of all, there was nothing wrong with the existing anthem. Secondly, with all of the multifaceted issues we face, it seems like we have a lack of priorities, when we major on such a settled issue as an anthem.

To me, it looks like a step backwards to discard the 'Arise, O Compatriots' National Anthem written by a collective of young Nigerians, including John A. Ilechukwu, Eme Etim Akpan, B. A. Ogunnaike, Sota Omoigui and P. O. Aderibigbe in 1978, for 'Nigeria, We Hail Thee', written by an English woman, Lillian Jean Williams.

Does it not sound preposterous that a foreigner should write our National Anthem? Are we that shallow and uninspired that we cannot come up with our own indigenous anthem? You can imagine the land of such music icons, like Fela Kuti, Osita Osadebe, Dan Maraya Jos, and contemporary stars, like Sade Adu, Burna Boy, Davido and Wizkid, importing music of national significance from Britain. As my Yoruba brethren will say, 'O wrong now!'

Already, the name Nigeria was given to us by another English lady, Flora Shaw. And she named us in 1897 in much the same way you name a dog. She did it tongue in cheek, for an article she wrote for The Times of London.

We ought to have even changed that name to something indigenous, such as the Republic of Wazobia, as Ghana did in 1957 when she changed from Gold Coast to Ghana at Independence in 1957.

We should also have reverted to the original name for Lagos, Eko. Lagos is an imposed Portuguese name. The annoying thing is that the Portuguese who renamed Eko as Lagos were just opportunistic slave traders who did not set up any viable administrative structure.

Instead of undertaking these name changes, we are rather doubling down on another colonial relic by discarding the anthem written by our own citizens for one written by a foreigner.

I dare anyone reading this to name another country whose National Anthem was written by a foreigner. Even a Banana Republic would not do that!

In my humble opinion, President Tinubu ought not to have assented to that bill. Instead, he should have written a strongly worded letter to communicate to the National Assembly the implications on our sovereignty and national psyche to revert to an anthem written by a foreigner, which would make us a free nation that willingly chose to return to the yoke of imperialism.

Is it too late for the President to do what he ought to have done? No. He is our Head of State and has a duty to promote indigenous ideas over imperialistic ones.

"Prostitution is now hookup, Charm is now Grace, Bad character is now mood swings, Fake life is now packaging, A broke young man is poor but a broke young woman is a strong woman, Happiness now depends on drugs, Happiness now depends on drugs, Drunkard now see addiction as excuse to depression. Molly is now the real joy giver, Smokers now see it as a means of taking away their pains, Cultism is now the norms definition of real men, Money now paddles the canoe of love.
Meanwhile "I'm the table is now the slogan of a lady in relationship. Our old time friends are now strangers due to change in financial status, Brothers now selecting brothers according to their standards, WHAT A FOWARDED GENERATION"
Morals thrown to the wind.

This post is not about this grinding machine 🤝

[Nononsense @NoNonsensezone]

Check!!!! This is how Nigerians voted during the last election. “ 3 tribes on the ballot “

North Voted all tribes “ Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo

West voted all tribes “ Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo “

East voted only their Igbo man

But still the Igbos “ East “ is calling the other two “ Hausa, Yoruba “ A tribalist and bigot for daring to vote their own at all …

That you are not together politically, does not mean you cannot be together patriotically. We can compete during election and cooperate after election. We are rivals. We are not enemies!

Hmmmmm. Tinubu don go scatter Uk economy again . This man is complaining that he spent £50 (equivalent of N100,000) to buy 29 litres fuel for his car in UK. He said the suffering is too much and he will soon relocate back to Nigeria. Interesting..🤣🤣
