This guy Rufai is a hot brain, why do you always let him speak when you know there is no time left it's always Rufai let me get your quick comment on this.

[@YommyFermi]

I think it’s a wise ploy by the program Director so that the Abujas won’t have a cause to take down the station, otherwise if you allow Ruffy to speak freely, Lagos might be in another trouble.

I've said it time and again that Rufai is an angel, his courage, his truthfulness, his straightforwardness and the humility with which he expresses himself simply make him extraordinary.

[@banksmonday7482]

Igbos are not in charge of the economy. Don’t confuse business mentality with being in charge of economy. The people in charge of economy are those who make policy, pass bills that affect economy. The people in charge of economy, are those that closed the sea ports in the south and kept only Apapa open. Those who make policies for FG to collect VAT

[@angelicakweku5293]

Economic strangulation is unleashed on Igbos, AKA dot in the circle. No international airport, for the most traveled people in Nigeria. No seaport for the most importers in Nigeria. Quota system and indigenization decree are just the tip of the iceberg!!!!

@Ike Naija Did she say your Buhari didn’t also do that? Becos you lack understanding and I also think you don’t understand what she wrote too, Nigerian government has never done any good to the Igbo’s and that’s y we want our separate country and we can’t continue to exist with backward people like you the fulani’s with your fake name.

[@Zaramoku]

Arise News deserves an award for its assemblage of these brilliant commentators. Tundun Abiola is not just a carbon copy of her father in looks, she also inherited her father's sharp mind. I appreciate her ability to easily spot out deception and patronization from Nigeria's elite. She was spot on in calling out Buhari's patronizing of Igbos in his speech -- I was appalled that Ogy, supposedly Igbo, didn't notice Buhari's deceptive speech. Rufai is the voice of the people, he always speaks what's on the minds of the average person, he does so consistently and unapologetically. Nigerians always know who's on their side, so based on feedback comments here, it is unquestionable that Rufai speaks for the people. Of course, Abati is brilliant; what eludes viewers is when to separate the journalist in him from the establishment's (irrespective of political party) spokesperson in him. He must continue to exhibit his gift for humor, that is always a plus for him. As much as I love Ogy, I can't make sense of her complete immersion into one Nigerianism at the expense of her ancestry, to the point of even mispronouncing Igbo names and seeming apathetic to injustices visited on Igbos by the Nigerian state. Ogwashiukwu, her home town, is Igbo. She can pretend not to be Igbo but she must ask those who pretended like her in 1966 if Igbo killers spared any of them. If she has children, she must begin to reconsider her aloofness when state sanctioned injustice against Igbo is mentioned. Her, African American women counterparts lea protests against police brutalization of black males because, they say, they are fighting for their sons, husbands, brothers, and fathers. Ogy should think about that the next time she sees only Nigeria. Overall, I love all of you guys, you are brilliant and entertaining.

[@phantom2k10]

If tundun is really as sharp as you claim and the female embodiment of her father,then she would have brought the heat/pressure when interviewing that zombie buhari.I appreciate that her job and life would have been on the line,but someone who really prides themselves in being truthful wouldn't and shouldn't hesitate to speak truth to power. Most of the time she is objective and truthful though,I will give her that.

[@dapmuo8421]

That's if Professor Abati ever stops talking and being pedantic.

[@jayaustin1939]

I don’t know what award you’re talking about. I’ve listened to them long enough to realise that apart from Rufai the rest are slippery. Either they seem not to understand the average Nigerian perspective or they pretend not to. Your description of Ojy is quite apt, Tundun is not quite informed about the Nigerian issue ( so it seems) and Abati is simply a politician. If not for Rufai I wouldn’t waste a minute of my time on this channel.

[@Zaramoku]

@@jayaustin1939 Lol, we seem to see things differently. Tundun is the most informed of all of them on the panel, although I like all of them equally. You can't name a better informative, analytical, and entertaining program on any other Nigerian television station.

[@Zaramoku]

@@phantom2k10 LOL, it's not fair to judge her by that interview. They collectively and purposely went slow on Buhari, else he would have embarrassed Nigeria with giving unintelligent and unintelligible answers. Tundun is smart and bold, I would come to Nigeria and marry her if she wasn't married.

I am mad with this tittle/ Buhari's statement!!! Liken it to a rat biting your feet and blowing cold air on it !! Well, it's not entirely his fault!! A group of king makers in Nigeria came together with plans to hold Igbos down in perpetuity!!! Just go over certain POLICIES since the end of the Nigerian civil war!!! But as an Igbo adage says, "Anyone holding me down, is also holding him/herself down because both of us will get up at the same time. "

[@justinsmooth9197]

[@philipobuekezie1476]

Thanks Rufai. I always like your contributions. Always top-notch. However I disagree with you on the Igbos being given the Presidency. It's not necessary anymore. Nigeria is beyond redeemable and putting a president of Igbo extraction will definitely be a poisoned chalice. What we need in Nigeria right is complete overhauling and/or restructuring. Cheers

[@jiksawo08]

Igbos are not in charge of anything. Ordinary functional international airport, Nigeria don’t deem it fit to site in Igbo land. No rail line, nothing. Igbo land would be overgrown by grass if not for the ingenuity of Igbo men and women. People from my village who are resident in Europe contributed money to buy two transformers for the village last year. It is this communal spirit that has kept Ndi Igbo viable and prosperous
