A thousand Arewas begging Ohaneze in Enugu will not stop Biafrans from agitating. Ohaneze should insist the soldiers who kill unarmed protesters are handed over to us or shot at the stake before even listening to their comments.

The hausa/fulanis would have burnt down the country and left nigeria, if Buhari had lost. Everyday somebody somewhere in nigeria dies because he is a christian non-hausa/fulani. 100 years of killings, every month, everyday, every hour. And one foool is preaching 'one nigeria' to me. May thunder fire any iddiot that screams 'one nigeria' anywhere on the surface of this earth.

igbos are not fleeing igbos are in other places to get chunk of their economy and also keep theirs...maybe in your crazy mind chinese are fleeing also, lebanese are fleeing to Nigeria


tell me a yoruba state that is better than any state in East...pls dont call lagos...its a no mand land developed by all Nigeria...give me ogun, osun,ekiti and ondo...those glorified ghettos

Guy, if Igboland is so great a place, why are igbo people fleeing her in droves for other regions? Maybe we'd all buy into their hype if they'd just sit their butts at home (for a change) or relocate back East en masse.

only a deep sense of inferiority complex makes you blow your own trumpet.

I'm yet to see the Jews, and I mean the REAL and AUTHENTIC Jewish people , not the Naija version, blow their trumpets despite running the economy of the USA.

you have corner shops littering the whole of the Nigerian landscape we no go hear word again.

anyway, no beefs.

we know you are very industrious, and so are all the other tribes in Nigeria. so stop puffing yourselves up.

glorified ghettos abi? yet your brothers and uncles and fathers are scrounging for a living in these ghettos.

obviously there is something worthwhile in these ghettos that they can't get in your own paradise in the east.

I'll bet you are typing this trash from one of the ghettos.

We Igbo's are not a set of people who because we are mentally and physically lazy we set up criminal privileges like quota system, federal character and tge rest because we know our people can't compete on a leveled playing field, even the whites can come and compete if u beat us we wud support u,
We hv the interest of our land over anybody's self interest.
If the minorities who have access to the sea says we shudnt use there ports we wud shake d world with the ingenuity of an igbo man, we wud build off shore ports far from the Niger delta or odua or Nigeria and fly them into our country no matter what it takes.

Lol. Those 'glorified ghettos' obviously hold better economic prospects for your wandering race that they would rather leave their 'better' states (which they 'affectionately' call 'village' grin) in the East to go eke out a living there. No amount of propaganda would change that obvious fact. Of all people to compare the Igbos to, you had to pick the Lebanese. More Lebanese live outside of their country than within. Why? Because they're scared to return home. Their land is in turmoil (it's been that way for decades), politically, economically, and even religiously, just like the SE. cheesy Look, you are flogging a dead horse. I repeat that until your folks start returning en masse to actually live in their 'mansion's back East, as opposed to visiting only during festivities (since they simply can't survive there economically), you are just making noise.

Go to Lagos mesuem archives & see for ur self wat the british were using as seaport then & compare it with what u see now at the Lagos seaport..
it is the crude oil money ur sw states sit at home to receive from abj tht developed lagos port to what u see now from tht ancient colonial days.
sw should thank lagosian for their hospitality coz if not for them i dont think there will be difference between wat we see in the north & sw.
After all we lost during tge civil war,we have still gone as far as leading other part of the country econommically & in terms of self dependance..

How are we forcing you into the same county with us? Most Igbos who owned properties in Lagos were handed back their properties when the civil war was over. Your Biafra will be so useless when the south-south don't join you and you have to beg and beg before you're granted Nigerian visa. You're calling the South-west lazy right, don't worry. We will kill all the Igbos in Yoruba land including Lagos and Ogun state. By the time we start exploiting the oil in Ondo State and we create another. seaport in the Igbokoda area of Ondo State, your landlocked Biafra will start begging us to do business with you. BTW, the Hausas too will kill the Igbos in the North. By the time all of you are back home, your Biafra will be overpopulated

Guyman, I don't brag. Unlike you and your empty vessel brothers who need to brag to feel good about yourselves (as evidenced by this thread itself). Everybody knows that your region leaves little room for any other viable vocation beyond trading. And even the trading sef is over-saturated, and since that is practically the only viable means of economic survival in those parts, the vast majority of your folks have to seek greener pastures elsewhere. This is common knowledge to everyone in Nigeria. What is the 'brag' in that please?

Portugal was once a world empire, but where is it now.

What I know about my Yoruba people is that we are very cunning and we would survive no matter how. You think we don't secretly want Nigeria to break? My belief is that we have so much potentials and there are numerous opportunities here. That is why the Igbos are abide here plentifully than in the North. You see how those Boko Haram people famously bombed that big market in Jos? They knew most traders there are Igbos. The Igbos keep hating us, yet we are the ones that have accommodated you more. Where I schooled, we have Igbo people who speak the local dialect of the Yoruba people there and even the Igbos are marrying the Yoruba indigenes there. All these privileges will be lost when you secede. Your fight is with the elite Hausas not the hospitable Yorubas. You know how many Hausas are in the Nigerian Army? Please make sure you are fully prepared before you engage in another civil war so that your people won't see lizards and hunt them for food (because the airplane bringing food to Biafra has been shot down by General Obasanjo). BTW, I used to have an Igbo girlfriend, she's beautiful and I loved her. I've got a lot of Igbo friends as well, I wish my closest friend Ogbu Ejike goodwill when the war finally starts.
