Quotes

...in my honour that President Jonathan has no hand in the matter; I am major player in this matter, President Jonathan has never called me to say, "Austin, this is what I want you to do, this is where we are going." Never, it hasn't happened. Quote me, I am saying so
"He was stopped but he refused. He was chased and he jumped out of his car and ran. When arrested and his cars searched, two uniforms with the ranks of a colonel and a captain were found."
I wrote my observation from that hearing that was published on some Websites on July 14, 2012, and titled, "My Take on Johnnie Carson's Testimony on Nigeria to the U S House of Representatives." Not classifying Boko Haram as a notorious terrorist group, which connections have been linked to Al Qaeda groups in North Africa and beyond will embolden...
Kalu says: "In 2015, what will happen is that the Igbo will vote for the Igbo, Yoruba for Yoruba and Hausa vote for Hausa. Then, we will all come to Abuja to discuss and determine who should be Nigerian president. Anybody who thinks that it is going to be a straight ballot thing to produce the President in 2015 is only fooling himself and that is our position."
