If you do not believe that the Igbo are marginalized in Nigeria then visit Aba and Nnewi. There, Nigerians of Igbo origin manufacture (not assemble) all manner of products that begin from Letter A and end with letter Z. In Aba alone, they produce 1 million pairs of shoes EVERYDAY (you read me right EVERYDAY). In Nnewi, they have more Manufacturing companies than they have in Nigeria's largest geo political zone, the Northwest. Yet, both Anambra or Abia do not have an airport even though their citizens are the heaviest commercial travelers in Nigeria BAR NONE! Yet, some states with little to no commercial activity have not just an airport, but a fully functional international airport. Try explaining this to yourself without using the word marginalization! https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10212561866298933&id=1152008079 66 Likes 14 Shares

ok, which of the Igbos, Biafrans or Nigerian? First thing first,u can't claim to be a stranger in Nigeria and expect to enjoy citizenship rights The victim mentality of the Igbos and politics of hatred must be dealt with by the elites among them. Stop applying poor strategy at political dispensation and making yourself available for ditty job like senseless Ipob agitation. Nobody take Igbo serious in Nigeria bcs they are not united, put personal interest above tribal interest. 97 Likes 8 Shares |

A smart party that didn't get any vote from a region would try hard to integrate that particular region...but not the apc, they rather stew in their own misconceptions Edit: The apc and the pdp have shown they have the same agenda. the same hate that has lingered since after the biafran war is still in place. 44 Likes 3 Shares |

What is funny is some Nigerians particularly yorubas think it's natural and okay for Lagos to have 2 seaports and largest functional international airport by design and for SE to have none. Some actually think Lagos has all these ports and airport by merit. When you try to to reason with them that why are Port Harcourt, Calabar, Warri, Onne and Onitsha ports not as functional as Lagos ports, they come up with all manners of excuses but you tell that that Dangote is using Calabar seaport to import most of his goods into SE, and then they keep quiet.Lol! Same goes for the airport, why are Lagos, Abuja, Kaduna and Kano the only functional airports in the country for international direct flight services? The fact is if you go right now, I mean now, to Lagos and Abuja, count and interview those traveling to international destinations, I assure you over 50% are Igbos. Then why can't they travel directly from Enugu, Uyo, Calabar, Asaba or Port Harcourt? Same goes for their goods...all these companies Reno talked about in Nnewi, Aba and Onitsha import their goods via Lagos port, that's over 1000 kms drive and paying all kinds of customs fees and bribes on the way to finally make it to SE, and you tell me this is fair? Yorubas...how will you people feel having to drive 1000kms to SE to fly and clear your goods? Not only do you do this one time only but a constant thing for the past 50 yrs? And you think it's ok? Yorubas....where are your conscience? Do you people have feelings at all? Do you have hearts? I commend Fayose and Fani but more yorubas need to come out and condemn this evil and wickedness! 293 Likes 44 Shares |

To all and sundry who says Igbos are not marginalised, can you give one tangible reason for the anomaly that Reno pointed out. It's very obvious, but due to the hatred they have for Igbos, they will say it doesn't matter..... Sometimes I wonder what is it about the Igbos that makes every other tribe in Nigeria hate them. When it comes to all ills associated with Nigeria, all other tribes re not exempted, so why the hate. Name any crime associated with Nigeria, you will not fail to see an individual from every tribe that has been involved one way or the other. So why always the IGBOS.

Masterclass32: I will ignore the unverifiable figure peddled here but Igbo should stop allowing themselves to be ridiculed by folks that had the well with all to help their cause but did nothing when they can but instead chose to score some cheap political point when they have nothing to offer. It is sad that Igbos with all their sophistication can not take their destiny in the hands. The SW is building three great infrastructural projects without a single support from the federal govt. All these project are initiated without any Yoruba being the president, VP, senate president, deputy senate president, speaker , deputy speaker or Holding the office of the SGF during commencement period of these projects which clearly shows that political appointment is no prerequisite to national or infrastructural development. The SW at the moment is building a seaport, eko rail, lekki Atlantic. These projects will define the landscape of the region obviously for the beta in future to come. Omkri queried the marginalisation of Igbos but ignored Buhari did not only cancelled a rail project initiated by Jakande led Lagos govt but incurred several millions of debts on the state in the process yet you do not see the Yoruba lamenting Hausa Fulani or Igbo marginalising them. One dare not think of the outcry Igbo will ridicule this country with should this happen to them. Omkri claim the east produce millions of shoes daily and queried why there is no airport in the east like they need the airport to ferry the produced shoes.Concerning Abia n Anambra being heaviest commercial traveller I will rather ignore this until a proven verifiable data to that effect is made available. Igbo should fight for what is beneficial to them in every context they deem fit but should not allow sycophants like Omkri becloud their judgment while he caress their bruised ego to stay relevant. Omkri was a nobody before Jonathan and he will stay a nobody in the history of Nigeria. The Igbo on the other hand is an integral part of Nigeria and their grievance should be channelled to the appropriate authority. The Igbo had enduring alliances with the north it's time those alliances are put to use. All the cry about marginalisation which i agree is there will not be solved with another cry of victimisation. Igbo should help themselves just like the SS and SW does at least till they have their freedom. Personally i believe Buhari does not owe the majority of the Igbo a thing even if they wail to heaven. The Igbo should henceforth define their desire each time they go into an alliance with any other ethnicity to produce the president. Igbos should define if it is preferable to have their son as service chiefs, build vital infrastructure, hold powerful positions, earn enormous contract etc that they want for their support in enthroning a govt and ensure the agreement is followed to the latter btw them and whoever they had such agreement with instead of disturbing the rest of the country with cries of marginalisation. The Igbos are not more marginalized than the NigerDelta that produce the bulk of the wealth of the nation. I doubt if they are more marginalized than the Yorubas and even the HausaFulani they cry are marginalizing them. 147 Likes 21 Shares |

Reno is just stupid. Was he not in government just a little less than 2 years ago? What did his principal, the adopted igbo do to help? Always trying to use ethnicity to bring down this government. Some of what he has said is true but certainly HE is not fit to say especially as he and his principal had their chance. 32 Likes 3 Shares |

Reno is spot on! Why can't an Igbo man rule this God forsaken country? How can we claim to be one people yet they oppress the Igbo's for fighting for their rights to govern and control their resources. This nation is doomed and can never work. Without equal rights and justice no country can prosper. 3 Likes |

[/quote]He raised very salient points that call for deep thinking. But I still think Mr Omokri is just being plain hypocritical and trying to play to the gallery being that he was part of the immediate past Government that had the opportunity to address the issues he raised yet failed to do so.... Sir, although your criticism is a genuine one, but it is not a constructive one. You are just trying to deride the present Government unnecessarily in other to score cheap political points...

Kathmandu: Yorubaas are the centerpiece of the problem of Nigeria. I cannot ignore them in relevant matter like this. The fact is Igbos by virtue of their strong abhorrence of evil and marginalization of any sort, will never, I repeat, will never condone of the federal governments allowing all SS and SE ports to be functional while denying Yorubas the rights to use their ports. This is how a typical Igbo man his...has zero tolerance for evil and marginalization even when done to his enemy. 25 Likes 4 Shares |

xcolanto:The problem is igbo. You call yorubas your enemy when they do not support you, hate the hausas and then expect support. You practicise politics of hatred everywhere you go. People are paranoid of you lot as you simply have not shown any reason why you should be trusted. Or what makes you think I will trust and support someone who calls me his enemy without any just and sensible reason. And be fair, are you guys united? How many of you supported Orji's move to becoming president? Things will change for you lot when 1. You accept the fact that what happened during the biafra war is in the past. 2. No one is your enemy, everyone is merely fighting for themselves 3. You decide to unite to get the presidency and find way to win the support of others. Until then, forget it. 98 Likes 9 Shares |
