Igbo kwenu!

Since our enemies are only interested in posting news of Igbo criminal. here, I have taken it upon me to show our shining stars here.

May the gods of Igboland strike any Nigerian that will want this news accredited to Nigeria and not Igboland, after all you hypocrites were no where to be found when your co travellers were singling Ndiigbo out for abuse for a crime supposedly committed by Nigerians who happened to be of Igbo descent.

nice change it to Nigerian pls

Let me invite Ndiigbo here.

Lovers of good should like. People are soon going to hear your own and mine own good news.

Ewepu Igbo, Nigeria ataa aja.

Yet another glory. Even after two thread were created by haters of ndi igbo yesterday. God no be man jare.

nna rapu ya otu ahu . ka ara gba ndi oga gba

lalasticlala, if this reaches front page make my hand

Yorrobber cowards will evade this thread, if its was anti-igbo, they will flood in like sugar-loving ants.

Broda nothing do you,we are just the best

Very nice one

What are all these tribal forms of statment and reply for. My brother something like "An Illustrious Nigeria Does It Again" would have been non Ethnically Egocentric, instead of using the phrase" an Igbo man", and for the commentators picking up what we assume to have left in the trash which is tribalism that the colonial masters tried to fully instilled in us would have buttress maturity. It's high time we moved on from our ethnic cocoon into a realm of national co-existence. We are educated seeking light to illuminate our country, inter-ethnic co-existence is what we need. One for all, all for one. Love you all.

Hypocrite. Go and sit down. How come we don't see you in Igbo crime threads where you fellow hypocritical Nigerians single Igbos out for ridicule and condemnation.

How come I don't see non Igbo one Nigeria apologists like you there telling the world that they should be seen as Nigerians and not Igbos.

I just wish it's possible to give someone an e-slap, I would have.......

Onye abia making ndigbo proud....

Anyway, when is this thread going to reach the Front page?

Lalasticlala, Seun,,Mukina2,

I know that this is not the usual bad news about Ndiigbo, but I can ensure you that any News about Ndiigbo is a traffic magnet, whatcha say?

Onye abia making ndigbo proud....

Yes o! No part of Igboland is a burden, every part pulls it's weight.
No dulling. Ndi Abia ndewonu o!

Ndiigbo mmamanuo!

Good news ,but let him remember his roots in times of philanthropy.

Am not surprise.... Igbo' s are d most brilliant African race.... Take it or leave.. I respect dem alot....d only people dat can turn desert to forest

Wen you talk of blacks DAT make things happen in USA u will kW that majority if dem are Igbo's... Go to states like virginia, maryland , new jersy, north carolina .Texas etc na igbo people full dia

I concur!

Am not trying to blow my Trumpet... Igbo's are natural endowed

Where are the name checkers?
They won't cum to check the name.
COWARDS THAT ARE ONLY GOOD IN MAKING NOISE IN NAIRALAND .

Sai IGBO.

This is what u get when an IGBO MAN decides to study his books. He will surely catch up and overtake.

In Business, it is another score sheet.
IGBOS have FORMULA ONE AUTOMATED ENGINES in their body system.

This same tribe, embarked on a ravaging war, came out with Nothing, were duped, yet see where they are today.
IMAGINE, if the IGBOS had not embarked on that war... ?


Congratulations, Ndi-Igbo

Nyc one.

Igbo Kwenu!

I am back from a month ban, all what I said is that Niger Deltans deserve a Niger Delta Republic.
may the simpleton who banned me face the same desolation the ND has faced these past years.

We will only tag them jealous if they begin to downplay the news or criticize the guy. Its obvious that's what you guys are bent on doing.

Can't you for once appreciate something good? Smh....
