ou, I agree with you It is impossible for an easterner to become president in 2003.it is more likely that inflation will reach 100% by that time It is more likely the naira will trade for 200 it is more likely there will be more ethnic killings it is more likely massob will increase its membership it is more likely the assu strike will still be on stop dreaming about 2003 and think. your relatives are in darkness now drinking garri no public hospitals to go to students at home no school to go to no water to drink in prison in their own homes at night because of crime .is this democracy or just plain maddness.this is just a living .We need good government and self help

OU, Can you give me a run down of Governor Atta's profile? I hardly know the guy. Is he for Biafra Actualization or just concerned about Akwa Ibomites only. Armed with the facts, I'd be able to make an objective input.

Lets go back to the drawing board. We had a couple of good NPP governors. One of them is still an active politician and I think that he will always deliver. He should be our man. He is a winner. He is Jim.

Ednut, I really hope it is not your "uncle Jim Nwobodo" that you are trying to regurgitate here. That awusa errand boy saboteur better not be who I suspect you are talking about.

Ednut, By the single act of betraying my people in ugwuawusa Jos, is enough wrong doing against me...by your uncle. It is enough to last me a life time.
As for women, is it because of awusa/fulani women that he had to sell his birth right...just to get into their skirts? See what chasing after women did to his awusa/fulani friend, Abacha? Abeg, "uncle Jim" should find himself some productive business to engage in. Political rulership is not his birthright. He's "benefited" enough, at our expense.

Was Jim among the good NPP governors? What has he won? He couldn't even secure a second term in 1983 inspite of Zik's influence. Jim, a winner? Will always deliver? Please pass me the sick bag !

Wetin you still dey do up and at home by this time of the night? Shoulding you be out Friday night checking out babes downtown or something?
Eniwe brother amoo tri to ansa ur questions. "Was Jim among the good NPP governors?" YES HE WAS AND WAY AHEAD OF THE BUNCH. "What has he won?" FIRST HE WON IN LIFE. HE WAS A SELF MADE MILLIONIAR (SP) BEFORE AGE 30. HE WAS THE CHIARMAN OF ENUGU LOCAL GOVERNMENT BEFORE AGE 35. HE WAS THE CHAIRMAN OF THE ENUGU RANGERS INTERNATIONAL WHEN THEY RULED NIGERIA AND AFRICAN FOOTBALL AND AS SUCH HE BROUGH PRIDE BACK TO THE IGBOS WHO HAD JUST LOST A WAR. HE BECAME THE FIRST CIVILIAN GOVERNOR OF ANAMBRA STATE AT 40 AND ANAMBRA STATE'S INFRACSTURES WERE AT THE BEST CONDITIONS THAT THEY POSSIBLY COULD HAVE BEEN, THE ROADS WERE IN GREAT CONDITIONS, NEW ONES WERE PAVED, HOSPITALS, SCHOOLS STAYED OPEN AT LEAST, ETC. DO YOU WANT ME TO CONTINUE? HE WAS THE SPORTS MINISTER WHEN NIGERIA WON THE OLYMPIC GOLD IN FOOTBALL. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, AS THEY ALWAYS SAY, HE IS PRESENTLY A SENATOR. "He couldn't even secure a second term in 1983 inspite of Zik's influence." HE DIDN'T CARE THAT MUCH ABOUT A SECOND TERM REALLY. "Jim, a winner?" SEE COMMENTS ABOVE IF YOU STILL HAVE DOUBTS. "Will always deliver?" SEE ABOVE. "Please pass me the sick bag !" OHAFIA, HAVE YOU BEEN DRINKING SOME CHEAP WINE OR BEER? NEXT TIME BROTHER, HAVE A BUD OR A MICHELOB INSTEAD.
Amanda,
How can you just judge one guy because he was being a Nigerian politician and not judge the other?

Ednut: When I say sabo, I meant both. Rudolf of all people did a lousy job to please his master. Amazingly he was representing Nigeriaworld, the same rotten institute that threw out Igbos like a trash. Even the master impressionist Thompson Buraimoh, could have done much better.

Ednut, Are you per any chance egging OU on to go chasing skirts…away from his dedication of staying up late for me? Have you now urged him to drink cheap American synthetic beers instead of his authentic palmy and guinness?
Alright. Back to the issue at hand. I see you cannot see pass your Jim Nwobodo. You seem to relish in selfish individuals who can only see naira signs thrown their way at the expense of Ndigbo/Biafrans and their plights. Thankfully, we have MASSOB. We'll have Jim Nwobodo and co running for cover, once Biafrans take back the power that rightfully belong to them.
Orji Kalu, at least, exhibited publicly that he cares about the plight of Biafrans. However, Jim Nwobodo demonstrated to us that he cared about himself and the lining of his pockets. Since you admire him so much, consider campaigning for him to govern your local government. Perhaps, he could pause to look into your local plights. Afterall, charity begins at home…not in Jos.

I agree with you totally on Jim's suitability for sports related jobs. He remains one of the best from his track records which you have graciously provided. My apologies for doubting his ability to win things.
As from today, I'll join in proclaiming: "JIM for sports"
PS: I'm a teetotaller.

Umuibe, I am looking at this issue from Amandas standpoint. T he Hausa/Fulani and Yorubas play the politics of nigeria better than us Ndi-Igbo. They say something pubilicily and do something different. Let us not crucify Kalu yet.He his just playing Nigerian politics. The way we are, is to say it as it is and do same. We must change this our style as long as we are in this thing called Nigeria. We must all learn to play politics the Nigerian way. For me Kalu was speaking the shrud, crude, nigeria way. GWAM OZO MEE OZO.

You are almost correct, I was not in Nigeria when Onoh and Ikemba were having problems with Jim but I was there till May 1981 and he was doing a very good job then, if things went south later, it has nothing to do with Jim but more with NPN, that corrupt gang that stole everything, even those nailed down. Jim was just trying to do his job for the people of Anambra State and the federal government led by awusa Shehu Shagari wanted to do whatever it can to make the State ungovernable. Thank god that Jim was strong enough not to let them into the heartland of the Igbo Nation. As for his prison term, all I have to say is that it was just the military that put him in jail, with whatever credibility they have.

Paul Ibekwe, has it ever occurred to you that your hero, Orji Kalu, does not have a college degree. He does not possess the intellectual ability to respond to real issues or to adequately address questions of serious concerns. Poor Rudolf! I can imagine how hard it must have been for him to come down to your brainless hero’s level. Even on that level, your hero’s responses to the simple questions were so idiotic.

Nedy: First, does college degree entail effective leadership?
Secondly, I have not proclaimed Kalu as my hero. So, I do not know what exactly you mean when you insinuate, or is it assume that Kalu is my idol. Clarify, please.

Degrees, degrees, degrees, this has remained the pre occupation of the self serving Igbo intellectual.Needless to say it is not synonimous with good leadership qualities or even an indication of common sense e.g. Ezeife Phd., Mbadinuju Phd., Prof. Nwosu MD, Maduekwew LLB, all now ordinary boy boy to Aremu an army mechanic trained in India.

Chiboy: Isn't it amazing how these intellectual elites reason? No wonder they deserve all the humiliations the have gotten, so far. Soon, they will come up with another crap proclaiming, all said and done, Nigeria is sound. I guess the crumbs they now get from their masters is good enough to betray Igbo principles and denounce the worthy causes they fight for.

It is pretty clear this whole thing is intentional. Some sort of a reminder as to what we can do to you if you keep it up.But do you hear anybody speak up ? Have the people of the east not adjusted to paying more for fuel than the rest of Nigeria ? Yet when MASSOB takes a stand some idiot calls for extra judicial murder.
Of course the errand boys live in Abuja and couldn't care less. I hear their pre occupation these days is to ship idle Abia youths and chiefs to pay hommage to Aremu. Well the clock is running out.

Even if the initial power outage was not intentional, then its continuation is. Yet, you have all those Uncle-Tom Igbos looking the other way and begging to be let into the Nigerian pipe dream where they would be blamed for future failures. Shame!

Kalu should not denounce MASSOB at all. Nothing gives him the right talk about MASSOB anyhow because MASSOB is trying to protect Igbos, Abians, Ikwere people, Imo people, Ijaws, Ibibios, etc. I admire him for what he did during the Kaduna riot but right now I am not sure whether I should disown him or not. As for 2003 presidency, I don't care about that trash. We are Biafrans and will not vote for any Nigerian President, Even if he's Igbo or not. The Yorubas and Hausas will never support Igbos and other easterners so why are our fellow Igbos wasting their time thinking about 2003. Kalu should go back and focus on improving the lives of the Igbos in Abia State. If he wants to be dishonest then we'll deal with him. Let us also be careful about the way we talk about our fellow Igbos so it will not give the enemies the power to fight us. Our leaders must be honest or else we'll make sure that they go to Nigeria where they'll have their heads cut off by the Hausas.
