THE HEIGHT OF IGBO TRIBALIRRESPONSIBILILITY BY MR.RIGHTS
http://mrrightsng..com/2014/10/the-height-of-igbo-tribalirresponsibili.html

Tribalism among igbo populace in Nigeria is gradually becoming a shame to human reasoning and failure to reverse such an ugly trend may someday lead the igbo’s and indeed Nigeria to a terrible situation.

While objective tribalism may be inevitable some times, the irresponsibility usually displayed by igbo tribalist is becoming a source of worry even to fellow igbo’s.

On independence day, october 1st 2014, a shocking message by an igbo tribalist who goes by the name Ambrose Nwaogwugwu from Imo state surfaced on facebook complaining about a perceived attempt of islamization of imo state by the state governor Rochas okorocha.

According to the writer who titled his writing‘’ Emperor Rochas Finally Cedes IBC to Hausa’’,, he said, finally, emperor Olaniyi Abdul Rochas has ceded Imo state to his Hausa brothers.

Wondering what has transpired in Imo state to warrant and justify such an extremely tribal irresponsibility, Mr.rights quickly opened the writing to read the details of the incident, only to realize nothing really happened apart from a radio program to be aired in hausa language.

The writer wrote,’’Imo state broadcasting Corporation (IBC) is now broadcasting to Ndi Imo in Hausa language for several minutes and as I type, they have been broadcasting live in Hausa language.’’ He went further to write that,‘’he called on well meaning Imolite to resist this open Islamization of their dear Imo state by the governor’’.

From the above information, its difficult for anyone to assume that any reasonable person would be so tribal to go social, claiming an attempt of islamization is taking place as a result of airing a program in hausa langauage on a radio station, but it was worrisome that some fellow igbo tribalist quickly joined in this unholy venture to share in this tribal irresponsibility.
While educating the poster, someone who goes by the name king promxy Jonathan wrote, ‘’dats how kano state do on their radio station called igbo guest’’.
But the tribal writer quickly responded‘’kano radio station, you must be joking’’. He went further to write, ‘’I don’t know what our emperor gain to achieve by that’’.
Another commentator Anita Chinwe Herbert wrote, ‘’even in Edo state here, both our state owned radio and tv stations have igbo programmes.
And another poster also wrote, ‘’imo is no more that rural state you people made it to remain for 12years, you cannot hold imo back’’’.
But the initiator of the post responded by saying, ‘’so, hausa people taking over our state owned radio station has now turned to going forward abi?’’
Again, another tribalist who goes by the name Ekemezi macdonald wrote: ‘’ how many igbo people live in kano compared to imo? In kano, the broadcast obviously is making money out of ndi igbo. This is uncalled for as this hausa broadcast is certainly free.
While some fellow igbo nationalists were trying to correct this tribal irresponsibility, he was still adamant along with his other groups of tribalists.
A commentator who goes by the name Erickson Prex Celestine tries to caution against such irresponsible comment, he wrote, ‘’this is primitivity and unhealthy tribalism. ‘’. He noted that, if Imo broadcasting Corporation (IBC) licensed by National Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) not by Imo state governor feels like broadcasting in other langauges, does that means they are taking over our father’s farm land?
He asked, ‘’why must you guys always fan the ember of discord and mislead people into perpetration of crime and crises? Adding that, if the hausa’s paid for program, shouldn’t they enjoy what they paid for?
He further wrote that, ‘’You people should try and travel out (from the state) and stop hovering at a location and know what’s happening everywhere. This local champion and primitivity need to be addressed.
But despite the wise counsel, other respondent continue to lambast the governor.

One Richard Capital wrote: It is only federal stations that can broadcast in any language, but for state owned radio station, it most be its dialect.
Morgan Akobundu also wrote, ‘’this aboki Rochas again? One day, we will run away in this state.
Another tribalist with the name, Bruno Dozie Okonkwo also wrote: Orient 94.40 FM owerri has been there during the time of Governor Tanko Zubiro, During Alhaji Tofa/Sylvester Campaign,During Udenwa redemption 1998, but this is his first time of hearing Hausa program.
Again, another commentator by the name Max Chinedu also justifies the comment. He wrote, ‘’those who are busy attacking the writer should stop and learn/understand why he his right. He state that, it is only on federal or private radio station that such a language is allowed, not state radio which is meant for speaking native dialect to educate the indigenes, especially the elderly people who doesn’t understand english language.

He maintained that, Okorocha is gradually Imo state and igbo at large for islamization. We shall never allow half igbo to be used by our enemies to islamize our land he wrote.
He declared that, Okorocha must be stopped for igbo culture to be revived. According to him, if we don’t wake up now to work fast, what happened to yoruba’s in kwara state will happen to igbo’s in imo state where hausa fulani’s chase away, killed some oba’s/kings and traditional chief priest. He concluded that,If care is not taken, one day, igbo’s will wake up and hear that Imo Broadcasting corporation has been sold to a northerner.

It is important to note that, all over the north, radio programs are being aired on a daily basis in igbo languge and no one ever complained, neither did anyone ever claimed such is an attempt by the igbos to take over the north.

Radio programmes in igbo language has been on air in state owned radio stations in kano, kaduna, kwara and many other northern state across the federal since as far as 1980’s, but becase such program is introduced in Imo state, igbo tribalist went online campigning for hate and calling for social disorder.

This is the height of tribal irresponsibility ever witnessed and the earlier these tribal champions are called to order, the better.
Igbo people enjoy equal liberty in other parts of the country, but when such liberty is extended to other Nigerians living in the eastern part of the country, some igbo tribalist goes up in flame claiming their land is being taken over or being islamized. This must be stopped.

Paranoia (a mental condition characterized by delusions of persecution, unwarranted jealousy, or exaggerated self-importance, typically worked into an organized system) and unjustified fear drives most of these guys.

The last time I checked Igbos are the least tribalist in Nigeria.
Op let me ask you, have you seen an Awusa man that has any TANGIBLE structure in Igboland?
Can you compare investment own by Igbos outside their land to that of other tribes (Yoruba and Awusa)?
Op sorry to say this, I think you are an epitome of tribal bigotry, you better reset your mindset towards Igbos because an Igboman on the street don't care about your hatred.
