Hyp O'crites In Nigeria by Dmouthed(m): 10:00am On Sep 27, 2015
All yee hypocrites in who don't wait the two sides of story but jump into conclusion because the side they heard favours their personal lust as against National interest, are bound to hit a serious disappointment!

laudate:

...
As for your convoluted theory that the Igbo mind their business, nah... you are not telling the truth! Evidence abounds of your people's propensity to look for trouble, by verbally antagonising indigenes and residents of areas where they sojourn, using propaganda and hate-speeches. Evidence abounds of the way they heap insults on the revered elders of those regions, where they dwell. sad

And since no one has a monopoly on rancour and hate... guess what? Those people just turn round to dish it right back! shocked

NB: Talking about the revenue accruing to Imo state from crude oil, please guy go and educate yourself. There is something called derivation and it is 13%. States like Akwa Ibom, Rivers and Bayelsa have far more more crude being drilled in their swamps and off-shore areas, than imo and Abia have from their on-shore wells. The quantity of offshore oil available , exceeds what can be obtained on-shore and that is why revenue from such areas differ. It is not only the amount of revenue which comes in that matters, but how wisely it is used and deployed to areas of need. undecided

A lie may travel for a thousand miles, but it takes just one step of truth to catch up with it. 

It's only the weak and leeches that bash other people who in no way have got nothing to do with the mass murder, destruction of means of livelihood, oppression and injustice in the land.

laudate, here and now can you post such evidence where prominent Igbo leaders have used propaganda and hate-speeches to cause anarchy in the country?
Can you substantiate with facts and figures, in clear terms, how Igbos constitute nuisance in any community?

Can you post evidence of Radio Biafra call for unprovoked attacks or genocide on anyone, here and now?

In the 90s, the NADECO's unlicensed and inciting Radio Kudirat was hitting the airwaves, did any of your elites condemn it?

Before the 2015 general elections, did you condemn the highly inciting Radio Chanji in the North?

Ever since you were born, have you seen or heard anywhere Igbos are on rampage, killing people and destroying means of livelihoods for no just cause?

How many of your elites dare challenge the Hausa-Fulani-Kanuris or Yorubas for their unjust ways? How many of you dare counter the numerous killings and destruction of lives and properties that have been occurring for many decades in the North unabated? 

You merely turn blind eyes to the wickedness in the country because your kinsmen are rarely affected. But you're quick to point accusing fingers on the Igbos who have been far from power for 50 years.

The Hausa-Fulani-Kanuri people have over the century propagated despicable, hate speeches in their mosques and still execute the unconscionable, cold-hearted waste of human lives and reckless destruction of means of livelihoods in the North and Middle-belt. And they now have the presidency while the backstabbing Yorubas vice-presidency! Such a misnomer can only happen in the jungle! 

A number of Yorubas even go to the extent of carrying wicked lies about how Hausa-Fulani-Kanuri people have been peace-loving and accommodative; that it's the Igbos that always provoke their hosts in the North warranting the pogrom and other heinous crimes against the Igbos.
Yet in the same North and the Middle-belt the Christian minorities and other Southerners are maltreated, relegated to the background and even killed.

You say that Igbos are arrogant, and that they don't respect their hosts while you subtly proclaim that the Hausa-Fulanis are peace-loving and accommodative. You don’t like Igbos but you still fought and killed them to be in this fraudulent union with verm1ns, where parasitic ingrates are favoured by the injustice, inequity and lopsided arrangement in the polity. And your people even had the effrontery to castigate Igbos for seeking a self-determination! 

Mister, it's wrong for you to make frivolous statements because you do not like the Igbo man. Though you may be bitter and angry for the unequal exploits and audacity of the Igbos, it's absolute wicked to spread baseless propaganda! 

Many of you hold the view that Igbos should be grateful for being allowed to live in their part of the country, in the same 'One Nigeria'! You say Igbos disrespect and denigrate their host when Igbos choose to exercise their franchise right. And you don't seem to see anything wrong in Oba Akiolu's threat to drown Igbos in the Lagos lagoon if they fail to vote for his anointed candidate! The same threat was backed by many Yorubas including Dr Ariyo in the US who even called for genocide.

But here you are, pointing accusing fingers on the Igbos for daring to stand against the injustice in the land and seeking self-determination. And some of you mischievously term it 'chest beating' or 'disrespect'. And if Igbos do not stand and speak for themselves, people like you will still find a way of accusing them of not doing enough to market themselves; that nobody is going to do it for them. Igbos are wiser!


There's oil in Anambra, Abia, Enugu and Imo. The whole of Enugu and Anambra States are sitting on Gas deposits and gas has more value than oil; Coal at Enugu, Lime stone for cement in Abakaliki; rice in Ebonyi State, Abia State - highest producer of cocoa; West Africa's largest market at Onitsha, Anambra; big markets at Aba, Abia state and Nnewi, Anambra. 
Even without reliance on crude oil the Igbos have excelled and are more than ever before capable of doing more exploits and competing with the World powers!

I don't blame you for not being objective and sincere! I blame this forced union under which you and your folks hide to propagate falsehoods and had the audacity to do so.


IGBOS HATE NOBODY EXCEPT YOU ARE A SWORN ENEMY TO TRUTH, JUSTICE AND EQUITY.
At the 2015 presidential election Igbos only exercised their franchise right just like other tribes.

If Igbos are the promoters of hate in Nigeria, can anyone tell us any instance where Igbos go about causing mayhem, killing and destroying means of livelihoods for no just cause?

It's only mischievous bigots in the society that turn blind eye to the evil and injustice, and permit the atrocities to flourish in the land because they gain from the lopsided arrangement in the polity.

GENESIS OF HATRED IN NIGERIA


1* “We do not want our Southern neighbours to interfere in our development. We have never associated ourselves with the activities of these
people. We do not know them, we do not
recognize them, and we share no responsibility in their actions. We shall demand our rights when the time is ripe. If the British quit Nigeria now at this
stage, the Northern people would continue their uninterrupted conquest to the sea”. - Sir Tafawa Balewa (1947)

2* “We the people of the North will continue our stated intention to conquer the South and to dip the Koran in the Atlantic ocean after the British leave our shores.” - Sir Ahmadu Bello (1957)

3* "The new nation called Nigeria should be an estate of our great grand father, Othman Danfodio. We must ruthlessly prevent a change of power. We must use minorities in the North as willing tools and South as conquered territories and never allow them to rule over us or have control over their future
- Sir Ahmadu Bello, October 12,  1960

Ahmadu Bello, arrogantly uttered the aforementioned statement in a multicultural and multi-religious country and got away with it, and many bigots still hold him in high esteem and even shove it down the throats of other people.

4*
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WSosECbcmM

5* ...sometime in 2010, when upon the demise of President Umaru Y'Ardua, indications emerged that his erstwhile deputy, President Goodluck Jonathan, may contest the 2011 presidential election, a prominent chieftain of this same ACF, Lawal Kaita, who was a former Governor of old Kaduna S tate, threatened that the North would make Nigeria ungovernable, should Jonathan or anyone from the South win the 2011 presidential election, claiming that such would amount to denying the North it's birthright of ruling Nigeria.

6* It is in the same North barbaric statements like this were uttered in 2011: ”BABOON AND DOG WILL BE SOAKED IN BLOOD”. And what was the outcome - carnage and murder of many Southerners and Christians in the North, including many Youth Corps members when Buhari lost the 2011 presidential election?

7* That true to that threat, upon the victory of Jonathan from the 2011 presidential election, massive violence was unleashed from the North by a group which called itself Boko Haram and which repeatedly took responsibility for unending mayhem which began with the killing of Youth Corp members who worked ad-hoc for INEC in that election.

8* As the barbaric killings and destructions reigned, especially with the attack by Boko Haram on the UN Building and Force Headquarters in Abuja, the Lower Niger Congress publicly posited that the nexus between the aforementioned threat by ACF's, Lawal Kaita and the Boko Haram's bloody campaigns summarily destroyed any prospects for keeping the Nigeria Union.

9* "It was, therefore, no surprise that in October 2013, following the bold announcement by President Jonathan, presenting the sudden prospect of revisiting the master-servant constitutional arrangements of Nigeria infuriated the warmongering born-to-rule Caliphate whose cause was championed by the same ACF, and who, supported by their allies from the renegade wing of the Yoruba Southwest,  launched a vicious, frontal attack on the initiative, teaming on the floor of the Conference into a majority, and driving the Conference into its first major decision, i.e. NOT TO DISCUSS THE TERMS OF NIGERIA'S UNITY. The rest of the Conference was a jamboree that provided a luxurious platform for the North/SW Alliance, parading itself as a new political party named APC, to fine-tune their violent March to the do-or-die 2015 general elections."

10* Oba of Lagos Threat on Igbos Over 2015 Governorship

My advice to the Igbos is they should always talk less. They take too much and most times carelessly in other people's lands. They are industrious and that is a fact but their industry is largely made possible because their hosts welcomed them there. A stranger is always a stranger in another man's land but some times some Igbos tend to overdo certain things and they make too much noise about it.
They should cut their loudness and be mindful of their businesses. This is a fact that they must work on as we are all humans.

Mister, if you are sincere and objective you will never raise such accusation on a peace-loving Igbo people.

Between Igbos and other tribes who make the loudest noise and propaganda using every available media outfit?

In the build up to the 2015 general elections certain people made careless and careless utterances thereby heating up the polity. Is any of them Igbo

The likes of FFK, Fayose, Fashola, Tinubu, Lai, El Rufai, Junaid Mohammed, Obj and Sahara Reporters who heated the polity with their utterances, is any of them Igbo?


Yorubas whose main source of livelihood in Abia State is driving where given free hand to operate to the extent they started cloning drivers license and forging vehicle particulars. Where they victimised? Was touts unleashed on them to destroy their business?

Are they not being accommodated in the South East without any noise from Igbos?
How many Yorubas have houses in the SE? Are they not living in a house built by another man who collects rents and did not beat his chest of accommodating Yorubas?

Do you expect an Igbo man that bought land in Lagos for N300 million per plot not to exercise his right as a landlord?
How many Yorubas dare cough out only N20 million to buy a plot in choice areas of Enugu, Owerri, Awka, Nnewi, Orlu, Afigbo or Aba in SE? Is anybody holding them?
Don't you see sales advert on the internet for such lands?
And you still shout the loudest 'One Nigeria' for your political convenience!


When has it become noise-making or crime for someone to even aspire to be chairman in a market they have the majority?

When has it become a crime for lawful taxpayers and citizens to exercise their franchise rights?
Should any citizen be threatened to vote anointed candidates?
When has aspiring to be voted for by non-indigene become a crime in a sane country?

If your people have the sizeable number in any area in the SE, what prevents you from aspiring for a post to better the lots of the people?

Many mischievous fellows hold the view that Igbos should be grateful for being allowed to live in their part of the country, even when the oil revenue from the South-East Zone is being channelled for Lagos development!

You say Igbos disrespect their host when Igbos chose to quietly exercise their franchise right in Lagos. And you don't seem to see any wrong in Oba Rilwane Akiolu threatening Igbos to vote for his anointed candidate! And Dr Ariyo in the US went further by calling for xenophobic attack on Igbos.

The main reason many people of all tribes in Nigeria troop to Lagos State and its environs is simply by virtue of it being a former federal capital territory. So don't single out Igbos and term it that they are being accommodated. That's is an insult on  the sensibilities of a people who have contributed in no small way to the mega-status of Lagos State. 
It is absolutely wrong to even hold the view that Igbos or any other should be grateful for being allowed to live in any part of the country, Biafra or no Biafra.


If other people were not needed in Lagos such embargo should have been placed ab initio, about a century ago, before the heavy investment of crude oil revenue and the vast contributions of every other Nigerian, including their sweats and bloods, and not now as it's being mischievously mumbled in some quarters.

Is there any group that has exhibited more 'Nigerianness' than the Igbos who permeate every nook and cranny of Nigeria, peacefully building and establishing business empires, and growing the economy of the locals and that of the country at large?

And you don't seem to see anything wrong in castigating the ever peace-loving Igbo people. Have you ever heard anywhere, were Igbos are on rampage and causing mayhem to their 'host' for no just cause? 

For some decades now certain people have propagated lies that Igbos don't have crude oil. That Igbos are greedy and want to corner South-South oil wealth. That Ondo State produces more crude oil that the whole South East. And to heighten the insult, they say Igbos bring virtually nothing to the Federal revenue!

They say Igbos are land-grabbers. In the past Yorubas were busy building empires, looking for weaker groups to acquire. The Fulanis colonized the Hausas. The Binis terrorised some parts of Yoruba and Anioma land, and tried to conquer and use them as slaves.

But these same people still turn around to accuse Igbos, who have no such history of expansionist tendencies, of land grabbing and seeking to dominate others.
And over the years, Yorubas and their Northern co-travellers have propagated lies and falsehoods portraying Igbos who never had an army or empire as land grabbers.


Do you see anything wrong at all when these wicked lies are being fashioned against Igbos for years?

It's only mischievous fellows in the society that turn blind eye to the evil and injustice, and permit the atrocities to flourish in the land because they gain from the lopsided arrangement in the polity.
