Some Of The Real Reasons Why Nd'igbo Are Suspicious Of ""occupy Nigeria" by Nobody: 4:47pm On Jan 15, 2012
The Igbo have  been under "occupy Igbo land" since 1970 with devastating effects.  We don't want to give someone another opportunity to send more gwodogwodos to come and pillage our towns and violate our women. We don't think this can happen under GEJ 's watch but we don't wanna take chances.

That fuel was still selling at N65 was news to many Igbo in the southeast.  Fuel has been sold in the Igbo enclave for over N100 per liter for many years. Therefore, the Igbo have not been getting subsidized fuel.  So why should we protest a policy that tends to equalize or level the playing field?

For the Igbo, it is déjà vu again. The ominous cloud that gathered in 1966 is forming and hovering over Nigeria again. This cloud led to the pogrom against the Igbo for more than 30 days all over Nigeria. Subsequently a civil war ensued and the Igbo lost even more lives.We are still paying the price for this dark cloud that gathered in 1966 and yet another eerily similar cloud is gathering.  We have to watch this cloud carefully.

That the goons in the north have again started hunting down mostly Igbo in the north did not receive any attention from labor organizations. Yet people want us to come and occupy Nigeria for their selfish interests. At this point we can't. First of all we are busy yet again burying our people massacred yet again in the north. Further we support GEJ on fuel susbsidy removal because it is the right thing to do.

I want to use this opportunity to thank the President of Christian Association of Nigeria, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor for his dogged and selfless defense of Christians who are under siege yet again in the North. These are mostly of Igbo stock.

Finally, we don't want to be baited into a quagmire again and then betrayed. We have seen this game before and we paid for it with our blood sweat and tears. Never again we said in 1970 and we mean it. In Igbo we said "ozoemezina."  We don't want to be betrayed again.

If anything is clear from the dark clouds of 1966, it is that the whole south was seen as war booty by the military wing of the caliphate.  The southern part of Nigeria was then looted and shared by the generals of the caliphate with some southern fronts and accolytes.

OBJ came saw the shell game but rather than destroying it, he set set up his own subterfuge to benefit from the loot. GEJ could have joined the bandwagon but on this he chose the Path of honor because he has seen the game as nothing but enslavement of the southern people.

GEJ who happens to come from the area that produces most of the looted wealth saw this and wants to dismantle some of these loots that has enslaved the south in perpetuity and you want to occupy Nigeria to forstall this noble goal? Good luck in your qwest to occupy Nigeria just count the Igbo out.

In my opinion any southerner that is protesting for the return of status quo is nothing but a fool!

Wanna know one of the recipients of this war booty? He self identified himself and is Ty Danjuma a bloodthirsty killer and long term Igbo hater. He cashed in part of his loot to the tune of cool 1 billion dollars a few years ago. Did anyone object when he disclosed this stupendous amount? Where was the Nigerian Labor Congress then?

Had Obj not retrieved some of TYD's loot out of spite, he would have cashed in some more of his booty by now.

His  loot cannot guarantee him internal peace though as he is currently alleged to be wrestling with his chi.

Here is a quote that is apt here : “This nation called Nigeria shall be an estate to us from our great-grand father, Uthman Dan Fodio. We shall vigorously resist a change of power. We shall manipulate the minorities of the North, and we shall regard the South as a conquered territory” Ahmadu Bello – Parrot Magazine, October 12, 1960.

Quoted by Prof. ByB.I.C. IJOMAH from the Centre of Policy Studies and Research in article published by Vanguard on January 16, 2012. 

I did not even know this quote existed before my thread was opened.  I guess, Ahmadu Bello later added the manipulation of southern minorities into the equation.  The end result is that the south actually became as envisaged by this bigot "a conquered territory."  And the oligarchy shared it out amongst themselves.

We all know that these labour peeps are sell-out.

It takes a bunch of brainless id!ots to trust them.

That's why Igbo traders refused to join them from day one of their mass hysteria.

In their little mind, they think that they won in the standoff with Jona.

It has always been their pattern all the years.

First, they will inflame people's emotion with their comments.

Then exploit the anger of the masses.

Only for them to go to the back and cut deal with the govt.

Leaving the stup!d masses high and dry.

Too bad that some folks sacrificed their life in this id!ocy.

Igbo people are the most sensible in this debacle for refusing to join up in this group id!ocy.

At the end, nothing is achieved, nothing changes and the little gain of these id!ots will soon be reversed.

mtcheeew. . .phantom country with foolish masses. embarassed

It takes an id!ots to be led by f[i]o[/i]ols

This sums up the whole post. Do you even understand the responsibilities of Labour organizations?

Another typical ibo stuff and by extension thread.
Instead of coming out to express your anger that the man u foolishly voted for has failed u, u come here spilling silly conspiracy crap and labour this and that trust issues.
Your leaders misled u guys on this one again, they sold u guys out by trying to diffuse the strike and protest on behalf of Gej, but they failed and your sorry azzes are back to square-one again.
Next time u don't follow pple with hidden agenda blindly. Learn from those guys who vented their anger at Senator Remi tinubu & co. and the ones in Minna, though they were mostly illiterates and expressed themselve too aggresively, they knew who was for them and who was against them.
