I Never Knew Gideon Okar Was An Igbo Man! by Nobody: 5:35pm On Feb 03, 2013
The alleged plot of Ihejirika to Igbonise the Nigerian army is making waves. And I happen to co,me across a facebook page started by a Northern blogger on the issue.
I was going through comments of many Nigerians hoping to find some balance, but what did I see? The same ethnic war-fares that have bedeviled Nigeria from 1914.

I took my time to go through most of the comments but one of them really caught my attention and I decided to bring it to Nairaland.

Srj Afaka
The Okah coup attempt and their gross plan to cut off north from Nigeria is more than enough for us to be cautious of the blood thirty Igbos as they practically demonstrated by killing our political and military leaders during bloody Igbo coup attempt of 1960..

This the link to the page.

http://www.facebook.com/A.U.Tilde (the comments are long, please take your time and go through. it is mind blowing)

Now, i am yet to really understand the mindset of this people, it seems any person that is not core North and is not core West is Igbo.

To my Igbo brothers: beware of the ghost of 1966.
To my non Igbo brothers: please be informed that you are all "junked" with Igbos.
To my Northern brothers: please, we do not want another war! Please, let Nigeria split in peace.

Major Gideon Gwaza Orkar is from Benue State. A humble and very brave people that stopped Uthman Dan Fodio from Islamitizing the whole Nigeria. Thanks

The fact is that if a country like nigerria organizes a military coup now,it will be totally grounded by the international and another scenero like mali will spontanously emerge.

The world is civilized for tribal military coup now.But still very wide open for constructive and rational revolutions by rational minds.It is the era of reasons and of the people like minds.

@op,we all agree that this fake queen marriage is not working.Equally all the segment and component of this fake marriage are complaining. The question is who will make the first move for the peaceful divorce.pls.don't use biafra war as reference for the desire of igbo to split out nigeria.

This is not issue of Biafra or IGBOS, even northerners is aware of the amalgamation clause and they are griped with the fear of south south invoking that clause at UN come 2015. As for the IGBOS, Is a dream come true. Based on what i have seen so far, south south will be the first to make the first move.
Re: I Never Knew Gideon Okar Was An Igbo Man! by Ddaji(m): 7:57pm On Feb 03, 2013
@Confusion247,if that clause exist then the job is simple.The 2015 is around the corner,let the south south table the issue then we shall see,the region that will oppose them.

Some people think splitting the country is as easy as typing on your keyboard. Whether we split or not,the task ahead of everyone of us is to clear corruption out of our system. Ethnicity and Religion are the basic weapons our leaders use on us in order to achieve their selfish desire. Check out most cases of corruption,you will see those involved are from different part of the country but they put sentiment aside and loot whatever is available to them.

You guys should all go and start calling your ward councillors to order instead of shouting online about invoking the amalgamation clause. Stop spewing trash and do what's possible instead of living in Fantasy Island.

The sense there my dear is that the great people of Benue state where Gideon Okar was from, were actually one of the people who gave your muslim jihadists led by otman danfoodio their hardest day at trying to force everyone into islam.

If our Northern brother regards another Northerner as Igbo man, I wonder then how the view other groups from the SS.

Na wa o.

A little spark is what is needed in the combustive mix. Every non-core Northerner anywhere near the North should consider taking safety measure to protect, and defend himself.

We are approaching,'There was a country' phase 2. Only that Nigeria will be that country, in this second phase.

I can see how scared you are on hearing this. Be informed that religion and ethnicity is the reason why we can't win the war against corruption. It is so easy for yorubas to fight corruption among yorubas like wise the igbos. If you arrest an igbo man today of corruption, igbos will shout is he the only one, if you arrest an hausa man today of corruption it will be labeled ethnic fight and hatred. The councilor in my area will be set free by an hausa judge if we confront him of corruption. To split Nigeria is as easy as abcd because we were joined without war and without war we all will go our separate ways. The looting was possible because those involved knew that their kinsmen and tribe will come to their rescue. Disintegration is the answer. Don't be scared about it.

If Benue state people stopped Usman dan gay from bringing his blood thirsty religion of piss (war) down to Igboland, then all Nigerians and descendants of usman the gay should be grateful to them. If not for them, no descendant of usman dan gay would be around today to tell the story. And there would be no sokoto caliphate. Igbos hate wars, but we castrate war mongers. All of them.

I hope I was not misunderstood?

I know that Okar is from Benue State, I am only concerned that a core Northerner would call him Igbo.
Perhaps even the Beron people are also Igbos.
Emm, Gowon, Kedu kwa nu?

Are you prepared to accept and acknowledged this claim by you against the Shehu when asked by your Creator on the day of judgment? Why should unfounded hatred caused someone to be this bad?

I am jittery, but not because of the ignorant man's piece but the fact that the slaughter of my kinsmen is still a viable occupation in the North.

Angwe Hemen: Gideon is ought to be remembered. He was a brave a soldier.

But even braver are the Loyal soldiers who broke his childish misadventure in the back, ostracized his southern financiers, waste him andhis minions and forgave some of his moneybag sponsors for their usefulness as per tax considerations to one, indivisible Nigeria. The pride of the black race and nightmare of secessionists.

There is nothing like Indivisible Nigeria. It only exists in the minds of lazy fools who is so scared of standing on their feet. Boko haram and fulani herdsmen is also the pride of the black race. Thanks to amalgamation clause, it will soon be over. Every man to his tent. Once again peace will reign to all tribes that wants peace. Those tribes that breed suicide bombers and still shout one Nigeria will enjoy their product to the fullest. UN here we come.
