PointB:

The truth that Awo is genocidal fvcktard is indeed bitter. Achebe has hit the bulls eye with a simple truth, and it's in print! Eat your heart out!

wellmax: Achebe, unrepentant tribalist. You can't match Awo's record. Awo in his short life achieved and will be remembered more than you.

PointB:

It is because you lots were tribalists from onset, that is why you stup1dily view wetie wetie (Wild Wild West) crisis that engulfed Nigeria then with primordial clannish bigotry. Nzeogwu acted to save Nigeria from the calamity the that was brewing in it. It is idiocy to see it as a SW thing. Nzeogwu saw it as a Nigeria problem, and Nzeogwu was from the Midwest (at that time) olodo!

webcalculator:
Awo is known only in nigeria, mostly in the west, Achebe is an international author; well known and respected. Google "there was a country a review", what you will see will convince you that Achebe has achieved far better than Awo(toad).

wellmax: I won't join this mess and tribal war for the sake of my children. I'm yoruba and I'm married to a ibo lady and I love my family.

aspabay:

If you say Awo is only known in Naija, then there is no point arguing with you. Olodo!!!
If you are bereft of information, learn τ̅☺ use the internet. Isi ewu
Achieved more you say? ℓ☺ℓ ℓ☺ℓ. By the time Awo died, who's Achebe? Now you are comparing who's better known. I see you are a young boy, underage, still exhibiting childishness, go and study history Äπϑ you'll understand better.

4chi: Achebe the cripple has always been a bloody bigot just like the majority of his kinsmen.he was so envious of woke Soyinka's Nobel prize that he opened his wide ugly mouth to say that the Nobel does not make Wole the "asiwaju" of Nigerian writers. When Awo died, he made the ONLY negative comment about the sage even when the likes of ojukwu did not. No wonder karma caught up with him and made him a lonely cripple living in exile and filled with so much bitterness... Oloshi eda. Aro lasan lasan. And WTF in the silly beret the mofo is always wearing?

Ngodigha:
Is there anything wrong why you people don't marry your smelly women?. Is it because of their smelly cuntt.

alj harem: You see igbos are just bitter people. The same people that see yorubas as dirty slaves are the ones asking for help when the north desended on them.

Before the war, they did all in their power to control and subdue these so call yaribas. Then they forgot yorubas were their brothers lol. Sh.it hit fan with their northern brother, then they remembered their dirty low yaribas for help. Even at that, these people still tried to play smart.

These bunch of ingrates still decided to invade, rape and do all sort of things to the so called yorubas they hate to love.

Any Nigerian that trust an Igbo man, goodluck to you. I personally don't trust anyone not to talk of an ethnic group. So play among yourselves, when you are ready to talk politics you know when to find the yorubas.

It's because of the war that igbos now respect the Niger-deltas and Yorubas now and we also respect them.

One last thing, it is nnamdi an Igbo man that sold igbos to Nigeria. So with this fact known, I can't be bothered. I just hope they stay out of yorubas way cuz if you decide to join any group to kill us off like nnamdi did before the war, you know the story. Just respect yourselves and stay out of our business and politics. Chikena last words on this thread. One day monkey will go to market and not return. One day your cups would be full. Fact.

I don't expect Yorubas to argue. Just be watching

CyberG:

Chief Awolowo was a renowned lawyer, eminent politian, legendary leader with the vision of a collosus. Achebe was just an ordinary bitter racist English teacher. Nothing more! Let him go and lead his dream biafara to another war....lol

aspabay: If Achebe is dreaming of a Nobel prize, then he's got to be competing with Basket mouth.

nku5: Guy, you have a persecution complex. Do you actually believe the poison you try to spin. Saying "igbos were trying to subdue yorubas before the war" and "igbos killed and raped" .

. . . it would appear that the God of Africa has specially created
the Igbo nation to lead the children from the bondage of the
ages.. , The marital prowess of the Ibo nation at all stages of
human history has enabled them not only to conquer others
but also to adapt themselves to the role of preserver. The
Igbo nation cannot shrink its responsibility. *"

Ikengawo:

Igbos respect Hausas because the Hausa people like the Igbo people have heart. If the hausa man love you, you must know it. If the Hausa man hates you, you must know it. They open, honest, and clear about their objective and who they are. If they're against us and we're against them it's a clear and open fight and everyone acts based of bravery.


now assess the yoruba
when Awolowo was plotting to use dying children as a method to win a war, we as also saying that if nigeria lost the yoruba would secede as well. If hausas are attacking christians, christian yorubas are the ones telling them which homes to attack. When NIgeria was splitting during biafra, they didn't assist the hausa until they felt they were 'attacked' and now, despite announcing they're ready to wait for Igbo bravery to me the determining factor of their future in nigeria, they're claiming they were for one nigeria the whole time when in reality they weren't.

They're also crabs in a bucket. If you put crabs in a bucket and one starts to climb out, on at the bottom will pull him down in his attempt to try and climb as well. They'll pinch and crawl on each other until they're all cooked and killed by the person that put them in that bucket.

Why did Awolowo feel the best way to advance you Yoruba was in killing and disenfranchising the igbos? Why did Abiola feel the best way to advance his political career was in funding the same military that killed and jailed almost the entire yoruba intelligensia? Why do these people see the sneaking around to destroy others meanwhile never taking on the fight as their means of advancing?


And this is just nigeria, when they're left on their own they begin tearing each other apart. Yoruba becomes Oyo V Ife V whatever other denomination they can find. This is why the Bini, one single tiny minority, was able to conquer all of yoruba land. This is why the fulani jihadist were able to conquer half of yoruba land, this is the exact situation the british saw and documented when they were conquering yoruba land. A bunch of 'leaders' tearing each other down, making sure nobody out succeeded them meanwhile not succeeding what so ever.





So no go back and look at the condition the Yoruba are in. No igbo village will every be as backwards and dilapidated as a Yoruba village and we were almost pushed into extinction. No igbo man lives as pitifully as the yoruba in Makoko. The Yoruba are on the street begging with the Hausa. So like the crabs in the bucket where has your treachery taken you? No where. I can list thousands of igbos effecting the world right now and Yoruba will list Obas that physically fight each other and politicians as their 'leaders' and defend this crabs till the death without having the courage to fight.
The fact remains, the crabs in a bucket mentality isn't strong enough to hold back the Igbo race. Jonathan is president as we wished, We're in Nasa, We're the worlds best scientists, we're the worlds best writers, we're the executive of the NY stock exchange, we've surpassed hollywood, we've surpassed Nigeria, we're crawled out of the bucket.

Mr. Globe:

Another yorrobber fraud always trying to cornily get something. Nobel prize needs Achebe to legitimize their award not the other way round.

blink182: Very true about Awolowo, the man's ambition drove him †☺ his destruction but not after destroying so many others.

It Iڪ this same Awolowo that changed the title of 'olu of itsekiri' †☺ 'olu of warri'. This change Iڪ one of the reasons warri became very violent in the 90's Ǎ̜̣̍Ϟd the city economic activities crippled f̶̲̥̅̊☺я years. Even till date, most of the oil companies that fled †☺ Lagos have not returned.

There Iڪ nothing the yoruba people have †☺ say on this issue.

demmy: Typical yigbo fantasy and empty boasting.

Soyinka, a Yoruba, is in the midst of literary giants like Naipaul, TS Eliot, Hemmingway, Morrison, Beckett, Sartre, Churchill, Russell, Faulkner, Yeats and Kipling.

Where is Achebe? On self imposed exile spewing hatred and bigotry.
