CyberG: Iboz are not the only people in that country but they seem to still think that renting another mans house confers ownership - NO it doesn't! It's not by force to visit someone if he doesn't want you, why not go back to your father's home and stop thiese killings and disgrace!? But the problems with the ibo are multi-various: putting money first even before human life, a convoluted mentality that you can somehow own another man's property, living in an alternative universe not reality, etc. Leave and go to your ibo lands and this your problems would be solved! If you don't leave now, if you can watch yourselves killed but not do the right thing, then no one is gonna cry when the bombs strike again! Go to iboland! If land is not enough, build skyscrapers because you will need some land to farm and feed your people! Don't go to the north, west or south-south! Go back to iboland!

djon78: I keep on saying it we have no leaders in the south east, if we had, they should have made conscious effort to see that majority of our people up north relocate home.

Those saying where they should go, it is home of course. What is the population of Igbos that South east can't contain them. Lagos has small land mass but contains the highest population for a state, the land mass of east is 20 times or even more than Lagos, so there is no reason the east will not the entire Igbo population.

Our problem is more of leadership problem, there is the need for a new breed of visionary leaders to emerge from the east, all these other guys: obi, ekwueme, chime, orji, rochas, nnamani, anyim etc have failed we Igbos. We need visionary leaders that will bring out an exhaustive economc plan for the east, plan that will focus on industrialisation, infrastructure development to transform the east and attract our people back home and discourage going to the other regions.
Developing new cities in the east with collaboration with diaspora Igbos, new cities can be built in: Nsukka/Abakalki axis, ugwuoba/Awka axis, umuahia/okigwe/Awgu axis. All these axis I mentioned have huge land mass to develop new cities, we need to start working out these things, to make our home better.

idupaul: Does anyone note how the resilient Igbos have once again been abandoned by the Kano govt to declare their own 3 days mourning all alone .. 120 people perished that day and the Kano govt doesn't deem it fit to declare even 30 mins of mourning or even a press release. Peace shall one day rest at the doors of all oppressed people world wide!!!

KANO-As Nigerians continued to express outrage over Monday's suicide bombing at a bus park in Kano which claimed over 60 lives, survivours of the bomb attack, yesterday on their hospital beds, recounted their harrowing experiences and agony, saying they saw death.

[size=18pt]Abdullahi Maiagogo Gayawa, a 70 year-old wrist watch seller who was affected by the blast[/size] said: "I was at the motor park as usual for a routine business when in a middle of the transaction, I heard a loud slam that sent me sprawling on the ground.

Initially, I could not comprehend what happened but rose and took to my heels only to notice that my stomach was ripped open,with my intestines gorging out.

I quickly packed my intestines with my cloth and was trying to escape from the scene when suddenly I woke up in the hospital surrounded by a team of medical doctors".

We saw death - Survivors

The Septuagenarian, looking frail and worn out told Vanguard on his sick bed: "I saw death at a close range and I had almost given up hope of living but all praises to Allah for His intervention.

Gayawa further explained that "as you can see I am still active and I struggle hard to feed my family and this particular motor park where the incident occurred is my place of business and I had been getting serious patronage from the travelers."

In the stretch of my life spanning seven decades, I have never seen this kind of trouble, the slam was so loud that I saw many going down, covered with their blood and the wailing that followed was such that I thought the end of time has come".

[size=18pt]Another lucky survivor, Magawata Goje, 45, told Vanguard on his sick bed thus: "I was inside the Lagos-bound luxury bus when the blast occurred. [/size]I was seated at the back seat, and it was Allah that understands how I survived the blast.

"I heard people saying that I was dead because I was covered with blood and I could see a lot of people in comatose position and I had to raise my hand to draw the attention of the rescuers before they attended to me. Goje who sustained second degree burns then appealed for quick intervention of government to save his life.

In pains, he struggled to raise his burnt neck and hand and looked through the window pointing at where his children and members of his family were anxiously waiting and monitoring his health from the sideline. "Look at my wife and children watching from outside and you can imagine what will become of their lives if adequate measure is not taken to save my life".

[size=18pt]Also speaking to Vanguard in the same vein, Hamisu Usman, another survivor, told Vanguard that "I was in a Port Harcourt-bound bus when a blast ripped through[/size], and the rest I knew was that I found myself in the hospital where the doctor was telling me to remain calm".

I spoke with the suicide bomber before he struck -Emmanuel Bassey, 40 years old tout.

In his account, Emmanuel Bassey, a 40-year-old bus park tout who survived the blast revealed to Vanguard his encounter with the suicide bomber before he struck.

Bassey who claimed to work for Ezewanta Group of Motors stated that "the guy came in a blue Golf car, I could recall that he was dark in complexion and appeared to be in his mid 30's. He was calm during my brief interaction with him and did not look harmful. I asked him where he was going, and he said, 'I have not decided', and in no time some of my colleagues at the park were rushing towards him and suddenly he sped off, applied brake close to a loaded vehicle and in a twinkle of an eye, I heard a loud slam that sent me sprawling on the ground", Bassey explained.

He revealed that four of his colleagues who were running after him to ascertain which part of the southern part of the country he wanted to go all died on the spot due to the impact of the blast.

Bassey who suffered second degree burns cried out: "Men, I saw hell and believed that I was going to die before some good Samaritan brought me to the hospital.

Bassey lost his skin and his stomach was ripped open by the blast but has undergone several procedures and appeared to be in a stable condition. Bassey who complained of excessive heat on his sick bed displayed a deep hole on his stomach saying: "I was simply not lucky on the day of carnage but all the same I give glory to God that I am alive but I hope government will do their best to bring the perpetrators to book".

In the meantime, Kano State Government has offered to foot the medical expenses of those affected by the blast.

Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, the Acting Governor gave the assurance in Kano shortly after paying a visit to the injured victims at the MurtalaMuhammadSpecialistHospital, Kano.

"The carnage perpetrated by whoever is behind this is totally condemnable, this is not religion, and definitely this is not the teaching of Islam. It is there for everyone to see and it remains the basic truth", Ganduje stressed.

CyberG: Iboz are not the only people in that country but they seem to still think that renting another mans house confers ownership - NO it doesn't! It's not by force to visit someone if he doesn't want you, why not go back to your father's home and stop thiese killings and disgrace!? But the problems with the ibo are multi-various: putting money first even before human life, a convoluted mentality that you can somehow own another man's property, living in an alternative universe not reality, etc. Leave and go to your ibo lands and this your problems would be solved! If you don't leave now, if you can watch yourselves killed but not do the right thing, then no one is gonna cry when the bombs strike again! Go to iboland! If land is not enough, build skyscrapers because you will need some land to farm and feed your people! Don't go to the north, west or south-south! Go back to iboland!
