Am not a good writer so please don't mind my gbaguan.


Having seek admission for so many years, I was finally admitted to study in Kogi State University. I thought it will be fun to be in a new environment apart from my home and ethnic group, I never knew I was totally wrong. My first day in the University was an interesting one, I was given the responsibility of keeping and giving out signed course forms to my fellow colleagues (jambitoes). This responsibility placed on me by the president of the departmental association gave me the mandate to be the class rep moreover the acting class rep. Every morning I make sure I wake up early in order to get to school, some of my coursemates even thought I stay in the lecture room because I was usually the first to arrive and eventually the last to leave. Owning to my activeness in discharging my duties as the class rep i gained ground and favour amidst most of my course mates. I became a threat to the Igalas in my department owing to the way I became famous from 100-400level. I can categorically state that the Igalas are basically the most tribalistic in Nigeria, I think this tribalism of a thing is in their blood, they just want to be in charge of everything without caring about others. Eventually they collided and kicked me out of office. They prefer a laggard Igala person to a good non Igala person in their helm of affairs. Since the inception of Kogi State University a non Igala has never emerged as the student union president and I don't see this cancelling itself because this ailment of tribalism started from the top. I believe you all know what is currently going on in Kogi state now. The Igala has be yawning for change through Prince Abubakar Audu but it was unfortunate they loss him into the cold hands of death, what baffled me most now is that they have decided to return to their vomit, that is to vote in Wada who they had earlier tagged a failed governor If and only if an Igala man is not used as a replacement for Audu. The tribalism out here in Kogi state, specifically the Igala land is enormous. I am using this medium to call on the appropriate authority responsible for tribalism issue to intervene because we the non Igalas are being regarded as nonentity in our state.







This my experience is not to condemn the Igalas but to tell them Kogi state is not Igala state. Kogi state is made up of five ethnic groups which the Igala are there in.

Gracias!

Stories are gradually popping out. That's Nigeria for you. Hypocrites everywhere. The manner in which Audu died clearly shows he was killed by people very close to him. The only way to combat them is to ensure that they don't get what they planned for. We all know what they planned for so its left to the people of Kogi to do what's necessary- frustrate the killers of Audu by denying them the seat.

My Igala brothers shine your eyes...the OP is a yoruba man. They have unleashed their media propaganda on the collective personhood of Igala people. The grand scheme is to paint you people as tribalistic for vowing not to allow Faleke a yoruba man become a governor in a state dominated by Igalas. Here is this idiot calling Igalas tribalistic when yorubas remain the most tribalistic sets of human on this planet. This thread will open the eyes of Igala to understanding the true identity and mind of yoruba people...implacably evil. Same manner they use propaganda and claiming SS to cause discord between SS and SE. Watch out Igalas!

When you attempt to patch Nigerian, it starts leaking from several other places. I don't think Nigeria may recover from the several ailments that plague her simultaneously.

They done come again with their usual propaganda because Tinubu who killed AUDU wants a yoruba man to take over,they have come with their usual shit!!!!!....TRIBALISM when they are the masters of it
The same way dy painted the Igbos black using Adaka boro,the same Boro igbos in UNN vote to b their SUG president.....now they are Using CLASS-REP
.Idiots!!!......#SAY NO TO A YORUBA MAN IN CHARGE OF KOGI#!!!!

There's no state University in Nigeria a non indegene can become SUG presido. Abeg it'd everywhere... Even an important state student can't become an SU President in Anambra state uni and Vice versa....

LordMecuzy:

The OP was referring to non-Igala Kogites. I noticed Igala has been ruling Kogi since 1999. It is not good.

ok

Anyone who says yorubas killed Audu is a fool, a complete one at that. If they could kill audu at that time, y wouldn't they wait for Audu to be sworn in bfor killing him? When there ll be no choice than for his yoruba deputy to bcom d govnor. I'm not from Kogi and I am not concerned abt who tha Bleep bcoms governor in that god-forsaken state.
See the name sef, igala? Very ugly. Rubbbisssshhhh
Poor state

The OP is very correct with his assertion and it baffles me that as educated and enlightened as some of this igalas are, they still practice stone-age behaviors and display very backward mentality. Whether the Igalas like it or not God is not asleep and will not allow the innocent to continue to be oppressed and marginalized forever. God has use Audu's death as a divine providence to pave way for a non-igala to rule Kogi state and so shall it be. The igalas are so tribal to extent that they practice it in the church(Several church problems and discords in Kogi owing to Igala wanting to dominate everything),schools and any environment they find themselves, they want to dominate and enslave others.
Kogi state belong to ALL of us OKUN,EBIRA,IGALA,BASSA,OGORI, Kogi state is not an Igala state, if you people need a state then go and fight for state creation.

Finally to add to the OP's point,Around April/May, 2015. there was recruitment of graduate engineers into the waterboard corporation of the state,all recruitment usually take place through the civil service commission but with the approval of the Governor, 80% of the intakes were Igala, when one of the directors in the commission tried to make a case for an Okun guy whose name was ommitted despite been highly qualified for the job, the governor replied him that we cannot employ non-indigene(Okun and Ebira) before and indigene(Igala).

And guess what! 50% of the igalas that were taken were non-professionals in the field and are complete dunce.
Also checkout the statistics of the workforce in the civil service out of 17000, the Igalas take 70% while the rest tribes share the rest, and that is why the state has remain backward and am sure even no igala man is proud of the condition of the state, yet they will not allow professionals and people with brains or other tribes to take charge.

NOTE: My best friend till today is an Igala guy and we've been friends for over 12 years, so if you an Igala person don't think i have anything againat you but the truth must be told. The simple reason the Igala people are afraid of letting other tribes rule is because they are afraid of the other tribes will be on a revenge mission once they grab power

IGALA PEOPLE OF KOGI STATE I CHALLENGE YOU TODAY TO DO UNTO OTHERS WHAT YOU WISH OTHERS DO UNTO YOU, IF YOU KNOW THAT YOU CANNOT ALLOW ANOTHER PERSON TO OPPRESS YOU THEN WHY OPPRESS PEOPLE. REMEMBER NOTHING LAST FOREVER AND WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT THE TABLE SHALL DEFINITELY TURN ONE DAY.

fucc.k you OP....why you no stay for your land....you can't come to my house an rule me...that's not possible... with the poo you even wrote one can notice that you're the SHOW MYSELF type....go get a life.

Yorubas are hypocrites!!!!!!!
When an igbo man who was born in lagos lived his whole lyf in lagos,speaks yoruba and evrytin becomes integrated into the society wants to b the governor of lagos,dy will say,na "omo igbo"
They would prefer some1 from Ogun or Osun
But they now want someone from lagos state to come and rule those in Kogi because he is a yoruba man
Not that this man knows anytin abt the culture and value system in kogi......nothing!!!!,jux because na yoruba while they would b the 1st to accuses you of TRIBELISM.........#SAY NO TO A YORUBA MAN RULING KOGI!#

God bless you my brother, this people are so unintelligent that their tribalism and domineering spirit has so much becloud their sense of reason,they don't even have the brains to analyse issues and situations properly. Just like you said; if the Yorubas can actually kill Audu,why kill him now and create uncertainties instead of simply waiting for him to win and be sworn in and kill him 3 months after then have a smooth takeover. They always feel they own Kogi State, and this is the same level of mental capacity they use to rule Kogi state and that's why the state is in shambles.

WHY?

I can understand what the op is trying 2 say but u hv 2 undastand dt d world which we are nw, are facing difference challenges especially racial nd tribal problems, so its nt only peculiar 2 d igalas bt d world as a whole. I c no reasons why oda tribes shldnt b elected as d governor

u used an igala man to win votes for APC, killed him and want to use his vote for someone else and u started bringing nonsense stories to have ur way??

My brother you are the real hypocrite and tribal bigot here,am not an okun man and Faleke is not from my place either but ur argument is very shallow and shows your intellectual capacity is too poor to understand how democracy/governance and 21st century society works.

The Man is a yoruba man with roots from kogi state, and in Nigeria we practice Federalism.he is a better leader and a technocrat compared to that dunce called Wada, Faleke is ten times more qualified to be a governor than that Mad man in Lugard House who have taken Kogi state backward in the last 4 years,. Yet you won't see thee Leadership qualities of any other person or tribe just because your are a tribal bigot and jingoist .

The lagos you mentioned about Yoruba been tribal; are you aware that presently we have more than 10 Igbo people plus other tribes from different parts of the country who are House of Rep Members,HOA members, commissioners and Special Advisers in Lagos State?
Please do your research and use your brains before you embarrass your generation on a public forum.

My take on Audu's Replacement is Either Yahaya Bello or Abiodun Faleke, this two duo are the rational choice and options for Kogi state, anyother person is a no-no.

Thank you

your thread title says your experience but your post is about something else.

do you want to modify your topic?

A funny tribe trying all they can to divide Nigeria, they stop at nothing as they make up stories, clone Putin on Twitter, Photoshop pictures, adopt all kind of names just to divide Nigeria; It didn't work before and it won't work now.

Some people will never change but no matter what they try, the outcome will always be the same.

Don't mind our yoruba brothers.Some of us can be troublesome.

The incorrigible liar New2020 is back!!!
Long time, Mr Nasty!

The yorubas are now using their propaganda machinery on the Igalas.
Yorubas, una sabi mobilize o.
Tuale for una.

I believe the best way to attack all dis is to ensure ur votes count. If it does against the igalas, then you are on point....buh if it doesn't, I guess u should relax and watch. It happens everywhere. Imagine a Christian ruling Kano state or a Muslim ruling Enugu state.

I have no issues when an Okun Man or Ebiras want to rule over de Igalas in kogi but then pls endeavour to answer this question can an Igala man contest for class Rep at C.O.E okene? the anwer is blatant NO because he or she will be dead on arrival and u want to rule in ksu!?u come online to type rubbish from the comfort of ur home. for the outsiders if u have ever been with or leave with an Ebira Man u will know there are the most heartless set of human being,( U tink Wada is Bad?try an ebira Man) for the Ogun your time to rule kogi is around the corner and am sure u will do better so pls stop associating yourself with cannibals like the ebiras who want to rule over people they lack respect for

Will you shut your stinky mouth you idio.tic igala buffalo! Do you know what 'Igala' means in Yoruba? Animal! Bush Meat! That deserves nothing except a hunter's bullet.


All the OP wrote there is NOTHING but the ABSOLUTE TRUTH. I have over one thousand and one connections in KSU and I can authoritatively affirm his points.

Have you barbaric miscreants not unleash your your wickedness on the likes of professor Adamo? Do you want me to mention names?

Do you know the same ethno-centric hooligalism of the Igala race has caused many deaths in 'ordinary' Kogi State Polytechnic? Do you want me to give names of Ebira students that have lost their lives thus far, because of SUG positions?

You barbaric 'idolistic' buffalos won't cease to amaze one!

The Igalas in Kabba detest their hosts. They hate everything about the Okun race, they will never attend a Church whose Pastor is Yoruba. You only see them in their fraudulent Churches (I won't mention names). I have singlehandedly written a freelance report about Lord's Chosen and I know how your folks almost ruin that Church in Kogi state because of y'all ethno-centric tendencies and love of money. YES, your people ruined the Lord's Chosen treasury. You always want to associate with the Igbos despite the obvious and apparent facial differences. Ibo man no dey get OYO tribal mark.

We know you people too well; we know the incredible nature of your genetic greediness. Audu's death is a firm warning to y'all. Power belongs only to GOD, not some power drunk animals.

You have 9 LGAs out of 21, yet you won't stop disturbing the internet with your majority-minority rumble formula.


Lastly, stop drawing sympathy from Biafra. You can never be Igbo. Have you ever seen a Biafran man with 8 tiger marks on the face? You're simply a forgotten minority in the Nigerian business.

What this op said is a lie, I attended KSU and can confirm the Igala people are very welcoming. I am Igbo by the way. The only thing I noticed about them is they don't like the Yoruba people in Kogi.
Thanks.

I havw no issues with the Igalas per se, but what I frown at is when a group attempt to assume that he's more indigen of the state that others simply because his group enjoys majority population. I put it to every Igala man and woman that Kogi state is NOT Igala state and it doesn't belong to the Igalas alone. The Ekun/Yoruba man has 100% right to hold any office in the state just like every other group. On the issue at hand, you all have no choice but to accept the present reality that a NON IGALA Kogite will succeed Capt Idris Wada in 2012. His name is Abiodun James Faleke!

I have stated unabashingly that Nigeria will never progress beyond the level of daily bread. Nigeria is a colonial blunder.

You're confused

Igalas are accommodating to Igbos from other state; but
Igalas hate the Yoruba people in Kogi state.


Do you all understand why I always call the Igalas Animals?
