It shows the spinelesness of Igbo politicians and their fear of being associated with causes which are Igbo that the Nigerian state frowns upon. Supporting Nnamdi Kanu is not an honourable thing given his call for killing of Hausa/Fulani and the Yoruba but Igbo politicians are not honourable leaving us with the only logical reason that they are spineless.

...YOU ARE VERY RIGHT...never was any of our governor bold enough to even appeal for kanu's release not to even talk of coming to sit with him in court as fayose did

That is why we have not been able to get our due from the Nigerian state despite all our years of being at the Federal government. Our elite are cowards and greedy. I have started focusing on the failure of the Igbo elite of late because any move to salvage t Igbo nation must start from there.

Fayose is more courageous than all ibo Governors put together. Fayose is d adopted son of Biafra

So you want a list of the endless effort ohanaeze and other Igbo leaders have put to support NK?

You really should not limit your source of information and news to nairaland.

Appearing in court is no big deal,leading the struggle is!
A little google search will bring 100s of Igbo leaders that have supported NK.

D irony of life is this... "Do you know how this man treated Igbo people(businessmen) in his state?

Knowing how unfriendly and insensitive the buhari administration is towards anything that has to do with Igbo,you can't blame them for not OPENLY showing coming out,but they are getting things done behind closed doors,put your ears to the ground!

i support this comment igbo shouldnt see this site as their source of information alone,just because nairaland dont promote activities of ipob,dosent mean igbos leaders didnt support their own,moreover i dont trust that fayose guy, trust an afonja at your own peril. They are all thesame

Abacha loot is still being recovered till today after how many years of his demise...

A southerner becomes president and he allegedly becomes the most currupt of all times,because he is from the south!

Hope you get the drift now?

you biafrans want to trust fayose??.....??....

Nairaland that is anti-b1afra...it even replaces b1afra with viagra.

Fayose is just a mole planted by Yorubas to infiltrate igboland and build bridges incase of a possible fallout with the north.

No,he is a mole!

.....but your fathers that are not moles don't have the balls to do what the mole have done? I think tHe mole is showing your fathers how to father there children. Isn't it? Do you the name they call at home? Oshoko of the universe. Go and google it and see the meaning. Maybe he's gonna be the 1st biafran president to show you guys how to have balls.

Una never fight war,you no reach to follow me talk!

Fayose no send anybody. He wears whatever (he donned the red garment and red cap), eats whatever (you look left at your local buka and see him clearing a plate of amala), says whatever( not enough space to explain that), relates with whomever he pleases.

I was really touched when I saw Fayose embrace Kanu today.

For all avoidance of doubt,NK has made many ugly utterances about the yourba as a whole , but Fayose overlooked all that and sat with him today.....This clearly shows that Fayose as a man is detrabalised.

Whether he is a mole or not, action speaks louder than Voice, since he became the Gov of Ekiti, his actions alone has shown who he really is.


The Igbos in Ekiti once gave him a title "Nwannedinamba" Ndigbo. I sincerely think he merits that.

Also, since the inception of this regime, he has alws been on the path of justice, he is the voice of the voiceless in Nigeria.



We have 5 SE governors, senators, HOR members, but where were they today.......the most painful thing is, one way or the other, if eventually something comes out of this struggle, all these old politicians would be in the front seat claiming to have done the highest.

Our SE politicians re the worst of them all. I always point it out that our politicians are our worst enemies, cos they re the ones hindering our development as a whole.

They re all greedy opportunist.

The worst thing that could happen to a man in life is to have no knowledge of who he is fighting against.

There is nothing to learn as far as m concern.
Playing the solidarity card just to gain trust from the igbos.

Well history has clearly taught the Igbos never to trust those across the Niger due to there cuny nature and no matter how honest they present themselves.

Nairaland (NL) is a public forum, not an Igbo forum. Anyone is free to make a contribution to any thread as long as they do so in a polite, rational and respectful manner by obeying the 22 rules of posting. If you want only Nd'Igbo folks to respond, then kindly take your discussions to igbobia.com or any Igbo-related forum. God bless you as you comply....

At op I mentioned this to Biafra supporters months ago. They hated the truth. They have little support from their sitting political office holders. They only people who went hard for Kanu was Traditional rulers. I compared the movement in Catalonia and Scotland to show these facts.

Rochas Okorocha has no plans for secession since he has ambitions to become President of Nigeria. Then he's very close to the Buhari. The only thing we can gather from his opposition to Kanu's detention is that he wants policical capital and has ideological opposition.

Ps. I don't buy the Fayose news. I think it will be denied by tomorrow afternoon.

I actually feel sorry for Fayose. The same people he went all out to support today, will shout 'crucify him' when he appears, tomorrow. Can the Yoruba people answer just one question for me? All your ethnic kinsmen who supported Biafra and even fought on their side during the civil war, how were they rewarded? What was their fate at the end of the day? What happened to them??

Give honor to whom it’s due. What Fayose did today, melt my heart. Whatever the intention, that wasn’t easy man. That is a sitting Governor for fuvck sake. Identifying publicly with Kanu, a symbol of secession, as a sitting governor requires some brass balls. I doff my hat. The niga got ‘em balls man. He seems to have a heart for the downtrodden.
If only our leaders in the East will move with a united front…..?

For all I know, I am not stupid. Fayose is just an opportunistic Politician who wants to ride on Kanu's fame to scale through the case the Fulani Controlled Federal government is preparing against him. I don't even blame Fayose because Abacha and Babangida stole more. The North is the reason we are in this mess today. All of them are same criminals.

Back to topic... For all I care, Nnamdi Kanu shouldn't trust any politician now especially that Chidoka from Anambra. They all want to use him to win elections.

The fact is that they never knew that Nnamdi Kanu will pull the force he is pulling today without a single penny.

But from all I see, what will hit the Fulani Federal Government is hard. Because many Igbos are radicalizing today for Kanu. Even one was preaching in Onitsha yesterday that if you don't believe in Kanu, your business will crash.

For all I care, I don't care about neither of them especially the useless Nigerian government. Nigeria as a whole is a worthless place. Even their citizens are aware.
