Are Igbo People Marginalized? by Nobody: 12:45pm On May 06, 2022
The answer is NO.

The only reason igbo people say they are marginalized is because they haven't gotten presidency. That is their only reason.

An igbo man was senate president, another was secretary to the government, ministers, some are top dogs in the military, in the banking sector while many igbo traders are residing in other part of the country carrying out trade, with all these achievements, they still claim they are marginalized.

There are many tribes in Nigeria, who are not represented in politics, business,military or in federal government jobs, nobody care about them, these tribes are the marginalized tribes in Nigeria but you never hear their complaints because of they have no opportunity to be heard.

Igbos are not marginalise.

But there is a need for balance between the South and North.

There should be equal number of state, LG areas and House of Representative members between Southern and Northern Nigeria.

Are Yoruba people marginalized?


Asking stupid questions like this is why we don't want to be in the same country with you.

Carry your goodness and non-marginalization and give it to people who want to be Nigerians.

Stop begging us for yoonity.

Each time Baba chose the Location and Capital another delegarion from the East would go to meet Obasanjo that the location was bad.
All of them wanted their Hometown to be the Capital of the new State and they were warned at the time that their Politics was bad and misplaced because the South needed the extra State so as to level up with the North

The same leaders have now with their eyes wide open handed their Region to Criminals and Cannibals to burn to the ground

And you think OBJ was sincere with that, he said that and then planted the seed of discort amongst the leaders, and you know the Igbo people are very ambitious in nature, every one wants it....
Ask yourself of all the years OBJ was the president, why must he wait when it was just 7 months for him to leave office before doing that?
OBJ was just been cunning and he played the Igbos elders

Obasanjo was sincere because he wanted to have more leverage over the northern Politicians that Atiku was manipulating against him
It was after the Sharia Riots that Atiku was a Part Sponsor of

In the Russian Federation, there is a place called Ingushetia, the population is not up to 500,000 and the land mass is the size of Lagos State.

But do you know Ingushetia is one of the Republic located in the Russia Federation? The republic is home to the indigenous Ingush.

There is another Republic in the Russia Federation called Chechnya The population of Chechnya is close to 2,000,000 while the land mass is as big as Ondo State.

The population and landmass of Ingueshetia didn't stop it from becoming a semi autonomous region in the Russia Federation.


Do not also forget, before the military, the North was just a single geopolitical zone while the South had 3.

In Nigeria, we need fairness, if not, people will keep on agitating. Few years ago, no one would have believe Biafra agitation will be this loud in the South East. There is agitation in the South South and South West too, though not as loud as that of the South East.

Only fairness will make Nigeria prosper and last long.

Agitation is everywhere in Nigeria for political reasons, nothing concrete....

Yoruba man. Everything to you is profit.

I want to be in a different country from Fulani jahadists and cunning Yoruba people like you. I have always said it.

I have done it in 1967 peacefully but your forefathers ran to British to beg them to come and initially beg and later bomb us to force us to come back to your utopia One Nigeria.

The United States Supreme Court has reversed itself in Roe vs Wade, right to abortion or life, no one forced your parents to give birth to you in Nigeria, there were other options to save you from a life of misery.

Charity they say begins @ home, Nigeria is a way over populated country, too many Almajirins, blame your folks.

IPOB agitation is not political, you won't understand how people have been brainwashed in the South East until you go there yourself.

A lot of Igbos in the South East really believe in Biafra, I can assure you 100%. I live in Lagos, and I can assure you if some Yorubas here are to choose between Odua and Nigeria, they will choose Odua.

A lot of Nigerians here in the South are not really committed to One Nigeria. They do not just have a choice for now.

Nothing is an absolute, even if there was vote life or death, many will cite for death.

Notwithstanding only low life naive tribalist minded people will call for odua or Biafra Country.

Which weapons are you going to use to fight Republic du Benin when they come to claim parts of the new Odua Republic as part of their country, same goes for Biafra when Cameroon comes to claim territory they occupied pre 1884 Berlin conference?

You Clowns will run to Big Brother The Federal Republic of Nigeria for help?
