No "grasshopper" would have swallowed the bait if the OP  hadn't  set the trap with the wrong titled thread. why couldn't he have just said that "an igbo man sacrificed his job for justice"?

Anyways, its instructive to note that there are some igbos who will fight for justice irrespective of the ethnicity of the beneficiary. Just as its also instructive to acknowledge that it was another igbo man (Chief Arthur Nzeribe) who was in the vanguard of denying justice to the populace by creating ABN.


Ethnic bigotry is killing our nation. Rather than salute a man who sacrificed his career to speak for a cause that concerns a man from another ethnic group, you are more concerned about another Igbo man who worked against June 12.

If Nzeribe, a non-Yoruba, worked against June 12, what do you say about Yoruba people who ensured that June 12 never worked: Ernest Shonekan, Oladipo Diya, Olusegun Obasanjo (all from Ogun State like Abiola), Ebenezer Babatope, Onagoruwa, Jakande, Arisekola Alao, Adedibu, Senator Adefuye, etc etc?

Let's keep ethnicity out of our discussion and stop this baseless belief that one race is better than the other. There are traitors and heroes in every ethnic group, race or nation.

Yorubas can do whatever against their own, IGBOS are not allowed

Just like how a black man can call another nigger, WHITES dare not!

Hey, don’t worry your little head about them. We yorubas know who they are and in due course, shall visit them with their just desert.

You should set the ball rolling. FYI, I personally do not believe that my race is better than others but that does not stop me from calling a spade, a spade.
