Even Hausas shouldn't apologize because ibos killed their leaders before the war, if anything berom should be the people apologizing or is that not the tribe of Gowon the president at the time? Correct me if I'm wrong, Hausas in the army just answered the call of duty. GodMode: 2 Likes |

I personally feel the disgust for the Yorubas came as a result of the actions of these two Yoruba men during the war, Brigadier Victor Banjo and Colonel Benjamin Adekunle. Brigadier Victor Banjo was a Nigerian prisoner in the Biafran territory trying to escape court-martial. Ojukwu used him as “My Enemy’s enemy is my friend”, but the guy faltered when he got a higher bargain from the Brits or better still, for reasons best known to him. He didn’t live long to speak for himself after he was executed alongside other Igbo Traitors. He didn’t act on behalf of the Yorubas. Colonel Benjamin Adekunle (The much dreaded Black Scorpion) who led the third division of the Nigerian offensive crew and massacred (yes, massacre is the word) tons of innocent Biafrans on his way from Port Harcourt northwards. Personally, I’ve always known him to be a ruthless psychopath who is hated by his own people for lots of his diabolic acts. Adekunle never acted on behalf of the Yoruba nation, he has this to say for himself. “I do not dislike Igbos… I did not want this war, I did not start this war – Ojukwu did. But I want to win this war… Sorry”. Just my opinion |

As for the problem we are facing in the South which houses all the tribes there altogether, we are all at fault. You know why my dear Igbo bro and sisters? We allowed those bad belle British to place their arrogant puppet (The North) on us as ruler in exchange for what we wanted at all cost (INDEPENDENCE). During the 1940s and 1950s we Yorubas and you Igbos were in forefront of the fight for independence from Britain. We both wanted an independent nigeria to be organized into several small states so that the conservative North could not dominate the country. Northern leaders however fearful that independence would mean political and economic domination by we more Westernized and Highly Knowledgeable elites in the South altogether, preferred the perpetuation of British rule. As a condition for accepting independence, the Northern leaders demanded that the country continue to be divided into three regions with the North HAVING A CLEAR MAJORITY. Yoruba and Igbo leaders, super anxious to obtain an independent country at all costs, ACCEPTED THIS VENOMLIKE DEMANDS OF THE NORTHERN LEADERS. You see our lives now. Baba Awo and Baba Zik caused this for us all in the south! Those northerners up till date do not have second thought about their arrogance as it clearly shows in the ongoing National Conference where couple of days ago, one oloriburuku Aboki from Kano told a Southern rep to Shut up and even further DEMMANDS THE ARREST OF the southerner for raising an important issue as if he is a criminal!!! OMG!!! The northerners do not believe that what goes around will always come around and in this earth, gravity will always prevail over anything thrown into the air. This is not the time for we Odua and Biafra to start pointing fingers at each other because we both primarily made an ENORMOUSLY BIG MISTAKE GIVING OUR INHERITANCE OUT CHEAPLY TO THOSE NORTHERN ANIMALS. This is the time to fully unite against those retarded people. People who no do and no wan pesin we wan do to do. Abeg my people of Republic Of Biafra this is the time to DISINTEGRATE this thing called NI/GE/RIA!!!!!!!! We need to move forward in the South and the north is preventing us to accelerate. Shall we be slaves to Britain, France, USA, Germany, China forever as the North is making us to be in Odua Republic and Biafra Republic? Oil is in the South, the North are the ones claiming it telling us to “go and die” we “bastard slaves” “second citizens” to our very face. Is this how we are going to continue looking at them like morons? This is not the time for dialogue because they are unrepentant. THIS IS THE TIME FOR TOTAL B R E AK UP, TOTAL B R E A K UP!!!!! REMEMBER PAPA AWOLOWO AND PAPA ZIK united to partially liberate us from the Direct Slavery of the British. They are both no more now to correct their mistakes. Let us unite as one in the South to FULLY LIBERATE OURSELVES from this bondage for life and correct there wrongs. REMEMBER that we the Southerners are the TRUE GIANT OF AFRICA Judging by our achievements and endowments. **Please let’s forgive oneanother (Calabar People, Igbo, Ijaw, Yoruba, Uhrobo, Itsekiri, Benin etc.) in the South in order to Empower ourselves for Total Liberation from this Slavery** ***I still believe we can still live as one altogether in the South if other tribes wish so and the name of the Newly formed Country will be Peoples United States Of BiaDua or Peoples Peoples Republic Of YorIgbo. It’s all about DEEP Tolerance and Genuine love for oneanother down here*** No more Scamm. No more N I G E R I A!!! 2 Likes |

Vansnickers: I hear that, g. Skepta Adenuga is a UK legend, that's my Ijebu brother right there. He just did it for the scene, with a dark/hood video to represent how the scene was when grime used to pop back in the day - before boys became men, and UK hip-hop took over. The scene needs that - nostalgic feelings, secondary school and colly days of spitting bars on the bus. Tempa T had the hardest bars...D Double E and President T also went in. You need to check out President T, he has the sickest flow ever, trust me. Tottenham/Meridian bllodline massive. Yes, I've seen it - the JME thing. It's peak since JME isn't a roadman, and he has never been. Only Skepta, his brother, used to be a road man. JME went to uni and he has always been neeky with that durag on his head. The video is peak though. I never knew trident and met feds were on it like that |

Re: The Tom And Jerry Relationship Between The Igbos And Yorubas. by Nobody: 2:37am On Jul 15, 2014 |
Vansnickers: Yes, he's hard. His style isn't the hyped one like Tempa T and them lot, he just flows like Devilman. Also, he's originally from Birmingham, but it seems he moved to Tottenham when he was young. And he was part of the meridian bloodline crew with Skepta, Pablo, Meridian Dan(German Whip), Big H, and Bossman back in the day - before Skepta blew up and left the crew to start "boy better know" with JME. You need to check out Bossman as well. This is his warm up session on SBTV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsCV-vLLqW4 |

PedroJP: There was no previous agreement before the war between yoruba's and igbo's, so theres is no apology needed. If some igbo's feel strongly about it, they need to demand a apology from the Hausa's; regardless if they are your enemy or not. Yoruba's never started or wanted the war in first place as far as I am concerned |

anonymous6: You need to ignore these emotional plonkers and their tears. Apologise for what? For smacking them back in line for violating the territorial integrity of the Yoruba's, by invading their region? Let them keep dreaming like Joseph. At the end of the day, before the war, the two groups never got along - and it continued after that to this day. The languages aren't mutually intelligible. Historically, they never crossed path. Culturally, the two groups are distinct. Anyone is free to associate with Igbo's and vice versa just as Nigerians associate with Ghanaians. However, all the noise about Yoruba/Igbo is just useless. I mess with few Igbo's, but that doesn't mean I can't put Igbo's in their place when they cross the line. Yoruba's don't need Igbo's. And any inbred lazy Yoruba who needs Igbo to survive can go join them to create a new identity - I'm Yoruba and I don't owe no one dead or alive nothing. And I won't trade being Yoruba for anything else on this planet! Shalom!! I'm out! 7 Likes |
