Do Igbos Deserve Apology From Nigeria?

asha-


what's your point? are almajiris not Nigerians?  or you mean the LSG gov' should start erecting road blocks to keep out the rest of Nigeria? And if I might add, go to Igbo west in lagos and kick them out of lagos back to the east?


Just deal with the question/problem at hand and quit holding on to half backed thoughts.

Make borishade,fanny kayode,ehindero,tafa balogun,kenny martins hear you  

As for lawyers,teachers,doctors my guy go siddon for gutter   you are just trying to be funny type.

That is why when I hear people speaking of "THE YOUTHS", I cringe. The youths are almost already a mirror of most of what we have here on nairaland.  Many of these here are parents of some of our "YOUTHS", and I fear, no be small.

NO REGION without almajiri types in Nigeria.

Its just a question of labels- what do you call your own.

asha-

cut and dice as much as you want,you still ain't making no sense.

almajiris are the least of your worries,

while the east left the country writin books on nigeria, yorubas were tryin to still run the country

If it is about that then focus on your leaders that are stealing you bling instead of focusing on another people.

Chinua Achebe wants biafra   Abeg show me evidence.If for anything the guy wrote a book 'the trouble with nigeria' http://www.amazon.co.uk/Trouble-Nigeria-African-Writers/dp/0435906984 as far back as 1983 even when people felt was still good.

I guess igbos voted for Tofa rather Abiola in 1992 elections   which was regarded as the freest election in nigeria.

Or is it 1979 elections that obasanjo rigged Shagari.Maybe Obasanjo ia an igbo man.

Please i will like to know the election.

They said the 1992 Election was the freest election in the history of Nigeria, and i will admit with that, however, during the primaries, what happened, and how many Igbo people were in the race and what happened?
All i am saying is that, it is time for the Igbo people to stop whinning and contest, and i will surely vote for them, cos i will admit that Igbo people are most industrious in Nigeria, and i blv that they could help Nigeria out of her mystery, but whining and digging the old wounds wont do jack.

Apologies  for what sef? starting something you can't finish?


maybe our case go dey different if  Zik don listen to Awo in '59 and joined him to split up from the north and declare independence instead of running to snatch secret overnight alliance with the North.

Igbo elders didn't pass down stories about the dangers and consequences of war and foolish adventures. The war was never an Igbo thing from the start, it was nothing but one man's foolish dream and greed. Too bad his people did not question him, they blindly followed him and his ill conceived ideas. And to ass salt to injury, the fool and coward took off and left them hanging.

They'll tell stories about how Awo came up with ways to starve Biafra but left out the part where Ojukwu refused to let Food Aid plane carry food for his people instead of  weapons.


The same character is back running around with a new scheme called MASSOB.  He is not fighting to help the people his stupid adventure messed up, he's busy looking out for his own pocket and ends extorting money/monthly dues from his people. He didn't fight to get the feds or raised a finger to get pensions for the innocent people he took to battle but he made sure the feds sends his monthly pensions checks,

It's just sad, you have Igbo kids getting brain washed from birth with bed time fallacies that yoruba people can not be trusted, yoruba and other people are responsible for all their problems. Fortunately for us, we know and understand Nigeria's history, we know what happened.


And this one dey talk about apology from the north. Shouldn't you be demanding apologies from your leaders for sleeping with the north then and now. Zik slept with them against your interest, you leaders today are still in bed with them. Your leaders like Ekwueme and nwobodo are still doing oga sir to the north, imo gov' just defected and dumped his people to go collect his oga sir papers from the north.


You guys have bigger fish to fry in the east and  all this yeye and  meaningless nonsense you guys they come up with no go help you or your kids. your leaders are taking advantage of these fallacies by looting away your future. the game plan has always been don't look at us, look at the yoruba and  hausa people, they are the reason why we're fcuked up. the same leaders dumped their communities and snatched 65% of abuja, some are even runing state affairs from abuja.

Thousands of igbo abroad are having sleepless nights about venturing into Igboland this Christmas because of kidnappings and killings,



But you guys are here running mouth about redundant nonsense like apologies,


Get it together my people,

  

what else is new?? lmao

Apology gini

Your apologies cannot bring back the 2 million dead "EASTERNERS" whom you claimed were Nigerians.
The first step to some form of correction is to give the delta oil back to the real owners. Then allow us to have our own international airport anywhere in Igboland, and a waterport at Onitsha or Oguta. Nigeria or not, we are fine! Your genocide will catch up with you one day. Ofo!

asha-


I wonder why it took you forever to pull Obasanjo from under your babariga.


We know the bastards withing our communities, we never  liked  or claimed Obj.


We ain't scared to discard our bad eggs, something you guys need to start learning from us.



Nice try tho', 

Well, I am not saying you claim but you seem to think you speak for ibos in many of your posts. Now there are those who have set themselves as the SPEAKERS and REPRESENTATIVES of Ibos and I have to say they have not been very good ones at all.  The bias and hate from these people stink to high heavens.

I am just saying that if one was to go by what many put forth as example for Ibo thinking here, one would not expect Ibos to vote in the majority for a man who was from another tribe, as was the case back on June 12th 1993. I mean that Authur was on the ballot and majority of Ibos did not let hate cloud their minds is a relief to me. I know it was almost 20 years ago but I am hopeful that the MAJORITY of Ibo people out there are not as biggotted and many of the samples we have here in nairaland politics claiming to represent them.

There are some problems that are just common to Nigeria and we need to stop pointing fingers when such problems are being discussed
