kishimi8: Funny how my dear naija is going bonkers.
I really miss the days when all my best friends growing up were ibo . Chukwudi. Uche, onouha and george mgbaegwu. I wonder how I will relate with these guys if we meet now.. Man ibos are messing up my friendships.. Now I don't feel that brotherly feeling I used to have for them... No p ..
Naija will hopefully get fixed..



...The Irony is that they may feel the same towards you as well if you are a muslim..dont blame Igbos for being human and wanting to protect themselves,rather blame your homicidal brothers for being so blood-thirsty.

Yask2guy: Mind you, I came from Ogun state and itz very peaceful over there. This is my first time of coming to the east but what I've seen so far shows no unity in the nation at all.
Let the eastern people change their orientations about Bokoharam people!

Yask2guy: It is of no news that the security challenges in Abia state has gotten to the extent of being vigilant over the issues concerning scares of bokoharam insurgents due to false acquisition of about 400 traders travelling through the state.
This led to scares amidst the dwellers of the state and as such got to the extent of accusing any Muslims (even just by names) in the state as bokoharam counterparts. Even when it is very clear to them that most of us are from the south western part of the country.
This is not the first time a Muslim corps member will be harassed publicly, even when fully kitted.
They have started calling us bokoharams to the extent of arresting a fully identified (Muslim) corps member at umuahia, abia state. Threatening him after his release that he will be dealt with if he is found again in the state.
The information getting to we residing at the MCAN's lodge in Umuahia now is that if there is any bokoharam attack in Abia state, the first places they will go to ransack are the MCAN lodges.
This must stop...
They are really threatening our lives here... We are going back home!
You were only threatened? Why the complaint?....can u calculate the rate at which Christians, south-easterners and its corps perish at the hands of muslims ? don't be a fool, concentrate on your service and thank your God if its successful rather than making unnecessary gists.

Northern Muslims are so DEVILISH, unlike their Yoruba colleagues. But the Yoruba Muslims are always CUNNY. I FEAR muslims more than anything. I have vowed not to visit or pass the North by any means. I even worked my NYSC so as not be posted to that HELL FIRE. Say NO to ISLAM FANATICISM. Say NO to BLOOD SHARING by Muslims.

Sorry about that but please ask yourself this questions and I want you to answer them truthfully within yourself- is it really their fault that things have turned out this way? When the 9/11 tragedy occurred, were you among those who rejoiced? There is a saying that when you encourage evil, it comes knocking on your door.

Dont play the usual victim card. A small town of Gbongan in SW welcome 6 corpse of corp member in 2011 two of which were of same parents while the compound of all these victims is not far from one another. The whole town was thrown in tears. The east is not the only victim in this. dont cause tension and unneccessary secruity attention in your region, it can lead to civil unrest.


I know is not just Igbos, but (no disrespect) the mere fact that you are mentioning one incident and six precious lives lost tells alot.

The Igbos and other are and were victims..over and over....why is it hard for people to just admit that?

Look, many Igbos have had to run from the North to the SE..Thanking God for sparing their lives...If BH does bomb SE (as their leader told us all on his tape he would do all over Nigeria) where will they run to, then?

It can lead to civil unrest? Lol.....Cant you see that Nigeria is way past civil unrest?

I don't think people should be harassed for being Muslims, but people are panicking because of what has been happening for years.

What it simply mean is for them to stop referring all Muslims they see as BH because they are not. The Islam I know doesn't support the killing of children, women of the enemies and not even men that surrenders during battles. I believe you are a student, so do try to learn more about other things that involves man's existence in general and not just going to schl to study maths, English and the likes.

It is so sad . It is their norm both in the south- south and the south east to refer to any muslim as boko haram. I experienced it last year when I served in Benin. Unfortunately, the so called enligthened ones among them who should educate them are also wallowing in this macabre dance of shame. The MCAN should call the security agencies- the armed forces- to forestall any attack.

..How can a supossedly educated person like you advise Easterners to change their orientation about Boko-haram when these guys are certified mass killers/terrorists?..

I know that of course and I've said the same many times on Nairaland. As much as the average Muslim is not BH, whether Yoruba or Northerner in fact, but this is a time of panic.

This time last year, people were saying and believing that there are no, and can NEVER be any Yoruba terrorist.

That is until those two boys of Yoruba background killed Rigsby, arrest of Yoruba BH leader Suleiman.

Maybe they also see the return of Igbo's from Lagos to the SE by Fashola (Yoruba Muslim) as an act driven by religion. WE all know that to be untrue (as muslims at other points were removed too), but people often put two and two together and come up with five.

Who knows, but Nigeria is at a time when nobody trusts each other. Sad but true.

One thing is for sure, no one knows what will happen next, not even SSS.

So is this all you can say? So a yoruba man is now a potential terroist? I was I a commuter bus one day and I sat beside a muslim, there was discussion of bokoharam and the man felt so ashamed about it that we quickly changed the topic. Let me tell you, muslims in the southwest are very unhappy and ashamed about these killings.Its a pity you southeasterners hardly think deep before rushing to issues, exactly the mistake of Ojukwu when he attacked Ore. Well let me just tell you here that there is nothing called yoruba muslim or yoruba christian . What you guys are doing is sending our people away and harassing them, I just hope you know that no one has the monopoly of violence
