ARE THE IKWERES IGBOS ?
Nigerians are bloody tyrants of ethnicity and related jingoism and the writer in this piece debunk the claim that IKWERES are Igbos.
We are a great nation and of course as giant of Africa but one cancer threatens our communal fabric of fundamental existence.I make bold to say that it is not even corruption and religion in the closest ranking of these sequential biles but it is mostly and always tribalism.
However in the enclosed screen shot of the piece below in the rantings of an ex ohanaeze secretary general who doubles thetragedy and historical offence of unforgivable sins and succeeded in the ass not art of muddling history to justify his specious claim and confouned Eminent journalist to stupor .Read the interview below a screenshot from punch newspapers.
It is on record the current south south prior to emergence of the old eastern region in which it was later grouped was classified as oil River protectorate and very well known to prudent historian not ambiguous historian like this who muddled up history to divide history and preaches social intolerance, social bigotry of divisive pluralism.There is no doubt that the forty tribes in the south south are by their dialects part and parcel of yorubaland and Igbos predominantly after civil wars have groups and groupings that settled there such okwuashi,ndonis etc.Many people in the region have been used to Igbo customs sometimes intermarry and also bearing Igbo names.They became imperialists in the region especially with the emergence of the decrepit eastern region and subsequently led Niger Deltans to resist igbo domination.The break away of ogoja riverine people and similar revolts necessitated this rise of nigerdelta.Infact it was prominent during the civil war when obafemi awolowo created south south states to counter Biafran states to dissolve the war.
How come ikwere suddenly turn Igbos when their elders says otherwise quoting fake books that erstwhile divided knowing fully African historians and history rely on oral tradition?An average Igbos cannot stop lying from the dullest to their wisest like the below they re nothing but bloody,blatant or pathological liars.From pat utomi to olisa agbakota etc they re in most cases woven with the same arrogating tapestry of fraud and mendacity.They cannot be trusted.
I think he needs to relax his brain or at best cool it down with bottle of wine and beautiful woman perhaps lot a ladies man.

I THINK I BELIEVE
I think I believe
All things are possible
Not that they can be
But absolutely must be
Beyond the crucifix of impossibility
Golden charm to change the cantankerous
Beneath this surge of impossibility
Castrated and capsized
Above those foibles of thraldom
Luminous rays of golden sparks
Of apotheosis and stardom
And lo like storms of lightning
And like a cannon balls
Apotheosis drops its frenzy
Unceremoniously from mteverest.
A belief is a lifetime fortress
Of salvation and salvation arsenal
They whose thrust in that arsenal
Are curators of salvation insulator
A buffer that insulates that rhapsody
Of salvation.
With that competitive hedge,aspirants
Of dreamland and dreamland memoirs
Are never spared of fortune hills
The indigent folks and the opulent class
Are bound apiece by the same fate
Luscious choices made glorious by checkered
Antecedence
Fought in the throng of animal spirit
Of liberty,
And envisioned in the same wraith of libertas
To the golden forays that we are freed at last
The old and the young, the poor and the rich
Wise and fool,the homeless and castle lords
To make a meaning of their investment of time
To castrate this ocean surge this dingy behemoth
Make winces to placate the much vaunted fortune hills
Through frangible beseech of this salvation arsenal
We conquer enmasse the farthest voyage of the yonder
seas,
The immortal and grievous adventure of the land and the
air
In the golden nightmare and remorseless freak of
adventurous time
Take not your bow to throw the sponge too quickly
And renege your grill of grimdeath into forlorn shores
The golden mileage of a clairvoyant, brisky bait
Like a ramrod, froth to traverse beyond the road foxes
Neither perturbed by the nebulous vertigo in which arts
Is thrown in the lion's den as liliputs of the grand canyon
Resilient pugilist hibernating his majestic ciffs
Above the jagged edges of this inclement canyons

ARTIFICIAL MOUNTAINS.part two
I doubt the current administration of tinubu will finish that laudable projects like Lagos Calabar project he had begun.Many investment had been ruined along the coastal corridor and every available investment is been destroyed leaving the country badly damaged than ever before.With astronomical cost of twenty trillion in eight years I want to believe the administration lack capacity to finish that project simply because it does not have fund generating capacity.He left many abandoned projects behind in Lagos excluding Enron project and all politicians share the same prejudice.
ARTIFICIAL MOUNTAINS
We are endangered species in this part of the world and I think we should state categorically the way it should be stated the mountain of debt gripping States and federal government in Nigeria is quite alarming and the blogger Ibikunle Abraham Laniyan laments the unbearable situation in this part of the world.Enjoy the reading.
We are a nation of many flaws and a flaw of many flaws in this context making unnecessary mistakes, fauxpass upon fauxpass and we move from flaw to flaw from one stigma to stigma,from foible to foible.My concern is when are we going to stop deliberately making mistakes I mean avoidable mistakes and avoidable flaws and have a softlanding make the country a thing of pride for its endangered citizens ?I doubt that even eternity may not be sufficient to answer that question.
However debts are just too many to ignore and we Ve frustrated with far too many debts and I was wondering could we survive with this protrusion of artificial mountain? Almost all states in the country are highly indebted including the top ten poorest states of the federation and does not spare we know the richest states which believe since they have a lot of money they could afford to undertake the rising burden of this artificial mountains with artless without fear or foe.
I had lamented in one of my pieces the spate of incompleted projects nationwide tied to this baseless spring of artificial mountains callously burgeoning nationwide.A professor of economics had provided the terrible data on the State of this burden and I think with the current APC three administrations so far the epilepsy or pandemics isn't ready yet to stop.
The don from the university of Ibadan Prof ademola gave the figure several years to 8million abandoned in two decades alone.At over 60years since independence who can stop us not to believe every two decades we abandon ten million worth of projects in a total of thirty million abandoned projects littering the nooks and crannies of the country?
We agree that is the source of our corruption and a compound reason behind this monumental balloon government debt In the punch newspapers with snapshots in this piece a senator lamented the State of Kaduna State economy battered by over 800billion naira debt left behind by its erstwhile governor a spillover of the uneconomic loan of 350million borrowed by that behemoth state government.Having read through the interview I was baffled once again to think Nigeria has a good future nor any responsible past to lean on.The current federal government inherited 87trillion currently ballooned above 100tr.naira at current rate of the exchange.Just read the interview in the insertion.
