Normality:


It is your ability to think as a black monkey and your docility that has impoverished Nigerians and Africans at large, quit whining, if you want to fight off white supremacists, carry out a revolution, pull out of AU(old haggard white stooges), UN, IMF, World Bank and stop looking sheepishly at looters and kleptomaniacs as they plunder "oyel money" and take it to foreign countries to store.
When we are ready to change this contraption, lets revolt, execute OBJ, Atiku, IBB, T.Y Danjuma, Tinubu, T.A Orji, Amaechi, Elechi, GEJ all those vagabonds in NASS and jail others who have stolen us to non-ending poverty. Kill off all those wicked old men in politics, tear the police into shreds and carry our proper building.
Else, stop whining about the award giving to one person out of few hundreds ruining this country and keep quiet.
When Nigeria is ready to change, we will know, else it is only to cry and whine and sigh and lament but no action.

When Biafra comes, all those dirty thieves and politicians will either be put away for life or hanged in their compound to set example. Sanity will be restored and everyone will be accountable.


I see the same pattern of events with countries, African ones especially, imagining a utopia that will be ushered in at the creation of their own independent nation... but things go downhill really fast and it just remains a dream forgone... we can't afford to be doing trial and error, can we? just saying/asking...

Francis5:
Igbos are reactive cowards
Of course this title is false and a bait to draw your attention to this thread, seeing how anything Igbo sells like hot fire
Now what am I saying?
I am saying that Igbos are reactionary and should be more proactive when dealing with Yorubas
Yorubas have a deep-seated hatred for Igbos, despite the edgy but so far peaceful co-existence existing between them
However, Yorubas have done a couple of things, some at the whole-Igbo level, others at individual Igbo-level, to exemplify their hatred for any and everything Igbo

1. At the whole Igbo level, they betrayed Igbos during the Biafra war
2. At the whole Igbo-level, they threatened Igbos in Lagos with being drowned in the lagoon should they vote for a Yoruba candidate other than the one ordained by Tinubu
3. At the whole Igbo level, one of their own in Texas called for the extermination of Igbos in Lagos for not kotowing to theh Yoruba herd mentality of voting for Ambode
4. At the individual Igbo level, they started the campaign to undermine Philip Emeagwali. Fortunately it did not take them anywhere.
5. At the individual Igbo level they started the campaign to undermine Ngozi Okonjo Iweala. This one bounced back on their tiger-clawed faces.

There are more examples. Like several Yorubas home and abroad writing hate-filled articles about Igbos. In all these cases, they were bold enough to do it with real names, not fakes internet monikers like Francis5 (me). For that, I give them credit. This is where Igbos have been either cowardly, reactive, disinterested or all of the above.

Now why are Igbos not similarly undermining Yorubas and Yoruba interest anywhere in the world?

Few Igbos have risen to some of the most enviable positions in global/continental affairs, unlike Yorubas. As of date, there is no Yoruba equivalent of Ngozi Iweala (Former WB MD); there is no Yoruba answer to Oby Ezekwesili (former WB, VP); there is no Yoruba response to Arunma Oteh (former African Development Bank [AfDB] VP) and of course, there is no Yoruba mate to Kanayo Nwanze (current President of the International Fund for Agric. Development, IFAD).

Yoruba are making the first ever move to one of such positions, in the person of Akinwumi, current minister of Agriculture, who is vying for the president of AfDB.

Yorubas claim that GEJ's government is a failure. If that is the case, there is no choosing and picking: Akinwumi is also a failure and therefore ineligible to lead the AfDB.

This is time for Igbos to be proactive for once: a campaign against Akinwumi is in order at this time. He has 7 other Africans contesting against him. Please Igbos, start to send stuff to ADB and personally to the other candidates on how much of a failure GEJ's government is and therefore a minister who served in that failed government should not be trusted to lead ADB. I am taking the lead. Please use real names, even if they are not your name. Let the revenge begin, Now.

Don't mind them. Don't forget their brother captured by Thiland police and all that worthless man could do was shout Igbo, Igbo and try to pull Igbo into his mess, typical of his tribalistic infested people. Let's not forget majority of the Nigerians lavishing in UK prison are their people while the Igbos living among them are being elected as leaders up there. Also let's not forget they are in FBI most wanted list so many times that FBI immediately assumed the bini man they currently looking for must speak Yoruba. Let's not even forget that SLS labeled them the problem of Nigeria.

Remarkable:


Yorubas have a different definition for cowardice and bravery.

Boys that took cassava sticks to a gunfight are cowards, while the man that brought a gun to the fight and fled is the brave one and hero - he not only had guns, he had 35, 000 soldiers with him and still he fled.

(Its on wikkipedia and online... here, I got it for yousmiley

"Although Shuwa's 1st Division successfully captured Okigwe and the Obilagu airstrip the operation resulted in disaster for Adekunle's 3rd Marine Division in which it lost over 20,000 of its 35,000 soldiers, over 2/3 of the entire division, and found itself in short supply of both men and food."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_OAU


Boys with cassava sticks chasing and killing grownass men with guns... nah wah o!

Their Generals weep and run...

Their men are taken on by women (from Dahomy)

Biafran boys kick their oily behinds..

maybe that's why they hate seeing Biafrans prosper and want degrees or awards revoked?

I have a lot of Igbo friends but sometimes their reasoning baffles me.
I'm a Yoruba man by birth but I was born in London and believe that every man or woman should be judged by the content of their character not by ethnic or tribal leanings. I have noticed that when a Yoruba person does something wrong his people will roundly condemn him but if an igbo person does same his people will mostly support him and claim that the other critics from another tribe are tribalists.
I'm not saying that all Igbos do this but you must admit that a lot of them do it.
I think we need to look at things through the eyes of what is good or bad.
It will help our growth as a nation.

When you think such deluded characters are few you get surprised to know up to 5000 votes has been garnered. All stemming from pure hatred!!
