You can twist and misinterpret my post, for all I care.

Also, your attempt to whip up sentiment in your favour is childish. What has my remark got to do with "political correctness" and "complex challenge"... you iediot?

I am shell shocked that the one who claim to "live in Ohio" where ethnocentrism, tribalism and racism is totally discouraged is here supporting the same. I am not in doubt that you are one of those embarrassing Nigeria and Africa over there.

FYI, I do not only speak Igbo fluently, I write same too. Needless to add that I am a community leader who occupy various leadership positions in my town union, village meeting, clan and kindred meetings, Obviously, I am not your type.

Since you want to take a bullet for another... May the combined force of Agwu and Amadioha visit you!!!




You are true Nigerian brother. What has been killing this country is what you have been attacking in your write-ups. Nigerians and too ethnocentric and religious. Thank you brother. Let us talk to them may be they will change to knowing the fact that human beings all over the world have blood running in their veins.

OMG! So, it was 'igbo amaka' that made u got so angry like this? I have been seeing Yoruba amaka here too. Mehn, what has igbo people done to some of u in this country? Any reaction from the igbos is seriously attacked.

I mean, when has it been a bad thing to praise ur tribe? The jews praise them selves so much, the German do same, I personally do not see anything wrong with his comment. U just spoilt this thread. Baba, hide ur face.

if the state "is he not Igbo?Igbo Amaka " made you to vomit that dumb statement that the guy is more of yoruba than igbo bcoz he stays in Lagos Nigeria, it shogroupws u have a complex problem. the statement on its own did not attack any ethnic group it rather extolled the programmer's ethnic group. it that what u call bigotry? if indeed ur a community leader then it must be a community of fools. As for ur amadioha and agwu , I live above those powerless things. Nitwit. less I forget, what is the name of ur community?

Im seriously suprised at his reaction and vexation. He is so pained for that statement. When has it become a crime to praise ur own tribe? As long as u dont ridicule others, praising ur self is allowed. It is also allowed in advertisement to praise ur self but dont ridicule others. That young man must really hate igbos o.

im so shocked.

I can see somebody above with a low self-esteem shouting "amaka". Disgusting. I wonder what this kind of comment brings into their pocket, and that also goes to the yorubas that shout "Yoruba akamu" grin.
Can we just praise this young lad without connecting his intelligence to tribe, because Efik, Igala, Edo, Hausa children are doing similar things too.

dam it, I dont see anything wrong in praising ur own tribe. It is allowed, the German praise them selves, the Jews do same, the French are full of pride. These are nations. In Nigeria, we have nations, Igbo nation, Yoruba nation, Fulani nation, Hausa nation, Irobo, etc. No one is holding anyone back from praising their own tribe as long as u dont ridicule other tribes. If he said 'Igbo amaka' then insult another tribe or mention another tribe to ridicule directly or indirectly, then he has done something wrong.

No matter how much we run from it, there are nations within the country called Nigeria. Im sure u know the difference between nation and state.

And what has his ethnic grouping got to do with his achievements though?

There are geniuses and dumb folks from every part of the world.

I just laugh when someone posts some other person's achievement here and y'all rush to see if it's afonja or Igbo. It is very childish.

Shows that you need to prop up your ethnicity, which probably doesn't need it. And this goes for all the ethnic groups represented here.

If there's any particular ethnic group that should brag the most, it should be the middle Eastern Jews. (Note the phrase Middle Eastern).

The number of Nobel prize awardees from that region in terms of science and technology is simply crazy.

Oga shut up, I was born in Adamawa but I’m Igbo and don’t ever make the mistake of telling me that I’m more Hausa because I was born and raised in the north.

I’m Igbo 100%.

Scratch is more of a programming game than programming IDE though. Helps kids have fun learning basic programming concepts without having to write any real code.

It's nice for a Nigerian 9 year old, but not that remarkable. Some (non-Nigerian) kids are learning to write real code at that age.

nobody is saying, situation like this doesn't exist. But generalising it, on all the northerner is purely wrong.

When you visit Northern part of the country, you will see how, the rich kids look like.

As they have millions out of school, likewise their school is over populated.

And northern Governors spent on education both local and foreign than there southern counterpart.

Imaging ###### State Institutions are CHEAPER than federal school in the North ::::::::---- ( quote me ). And not like that in the south.

Most of us don't even travel out of our village, taught that all northerners are shoemakers and tomatoes sellers.

And the same northerners had succeeded, holding grip of power for years and still counting.

My point is stop generalizing in the name of what you read on paper because one Governor need World Bank loan, just like Gombe state Governor just got billions of dollars world Bank loan to fight hunger. :::--- who is deceiving who?

All these, are just northern tactics of reaping south off.
