So how many did you count 9 or 10 out of 23?

Thats the thing with Ibos always making noise There are proably equal or more South South people but you dont hear them making noise like these Ibos

10 Igbos (SE) out of 23. What is the percentage? (about 43.5%) + 1 Igbo from SS
1 Yoruba only (0.001%

This is a country of 250 ethnic groups, remember?

BTW South South is nOt an ethnic group. It is a region comprising more than 50 ethnic groups
By both ethnic group and region, Igbos of SE dominated the football.

pazienza: Good coach,good result. Now keshi must try to bring guys like anichebe and osaze into the fold,to strenghten this squad ahead of the fifa confederation cup. There is still room for improvement,tougher challenges lie in the future.

Osa what?? If i hear that name again!

Dont mind the blind westerners, now IGBO donated 10 players out of 250 ethnic groups and nobody is shouting national character, tomorrow if 10 igbo men are promoted in the army you will start to see nothern lawmakers holding emergency midnight meetings.

Mod front page abeg oo
This victory has expose yoruba hypocrisy, i was very surprise hearing that noise from a man called him self a journalist, imagine the kind of hatred he have on Igbos that he couldn't control him self

dayokanu: Keshi is from Delta, Ideye Brown is from Bayelsa, Victor Moses, Oboaboana, Enyeama from Cross River, Yobo from Rivers, Echiejile from Edo State, Efe Ambrose from Delta State, Fegur Ogude from Delta, Onazi from Benue State, Nosa Igiebor from Edo state

So how are these people Ibos

Maybe OP should remember when Christian Chukwu a full Iboman was coach and failed

I like what is happening now, you will be scared of watching the Nigerian matches so you dont get CHOKED with Igbo faces. In your face Dayo

They will not put this one on the front page, because it will glorify the south east and expose the lies of the west.

Don't mind him so now he knows that the team is equal..... He ll tell that to his brother Gbenga Odapotun, who tagged the team a sectional team

Bad belle is yoruba problem...... This is what we need to do to move this country forward, chose the best nomatter where they come from. Keshi you has made name for your self, sooner Ihejirika will join you
Yorubas your media propaganda and hypocrisy is setting this great country back. Shun hypocrisy, shun tribalism,
A man called him self chairman Oyo chapter of journalist going to the press and spite that venom have show how he hate Igbos. thanks God he has putting to shame, though he still need to apologize to southeasterns and Nigeria in general

keshi sef na lagos boy, he went to st finnbars, his parents might be delta but he himself na lagos he grew up making him a honourary lagosian.

KnowAll: keshi sef na lagos boy, he went to st finnbars, his parents might be delta but he himself na lagos he grew up making him a honourary lagosian.

Ok, am also a lagosian as i was born and brought up here in lagos..... Yoruba and double standard

Dont mind dat rapscallion.

If you observe what Igbos preach for is equal opportunity and competition while most other ethnic groups preach quota. One can never develop with quota system(national character) especially when the aim is to avoid Igbo or Yoruba domination because the best hands are lost. What Soludo did for our banking is unimaginable, Akunyili in NAFDAC, Nnaji in power, El-Rufai in FCT, Ndukwe in communication etc is a good lesson for us to allow the best hands.

Duduknight:

Don't pretend not to know that some Igbo sons were tagging it a Biafran team even before the first ball was kicked in anger. I don't particularly care who started it. The facts remain that a worthy achievement is being tainted by idiots. This is not Nigeria's first nations cup; Nigeria has won in the past with more balanced representation.

Keshi was appointed to pick a team and he has done well for Nigeria. End of story.

You are right on this. When sometime ago I tried to show that the team was not an Igbo team some Igbo posters insisted it was 90% Igbo.

dayokanu: Keshi is from Delta, Ideye Brown is from Bayelsa, Victor Moses, Oboaboana, Enyeama from Cross River, Yobo from Rivers, Echiejile from Edo State, Efe Ambrose from Delta State, Fegur Ogude from Delta, Onazi from Benue State, Nosa Igiebor from Edo state

So how are these people Ibos

What makes one an Igbo?

^^

i tell u wat makes one an igbo

if he was involve in drugs trafficking to coup

then he is igbo from oduduwa-arewa perspective naw

by the way igwe where have u being hiding self

u went jail?

Trying to play it smart right, as if you are not aware when your Yoruba brothers who claimed the are "ACTIVIST" screaming how the money meant for players allowance would enrich the "Igbo nation", because coach KESHI applied nepotism and selected only his Igbo brothers so that only them could get the money?

Anyway, who expects a Yoruba not to do what they are best known for, ran into a bush to beat a gong then apear down the road screaming and asking who was beating the gong.

0lumide: I will like to see who started the entire "it's all Igbo team, super eagles of Biafra" crap first....

I will like to see where it all came from because everything is beginning to look like a made up story to get more glory.

Super chickens of Biafra won. So what?

Can anyone spot the difference in the 2 squads?
With all the attacks Keshi got and none to Westerhof, it's obvious that Nigeria is more racist than we've ever been.

dayokanu: Keshi is from Delta, Ideye Brown is from Bayelsa, Victor Moses, Oboaboana, Enyeama from Cross River, Yobo from Rivers, Echiejile from Edo State, Efe Ambrose from Delta State, Fegur Ogude from Delta, Onazi from Benue State, Nosa Igiebor from Edo state

going by the information you provided, then the team is 90% Biafran team.
almost all the state you mention was in the old eastern block.

my benue state has only one player in the team, anyway am happy of that bcuz its clear that old eastern block are gifted in sports.
until nigeria will learn to give honor to whom honor is due.

by the way why is it only yorubas contesting about igbo this igbo that in super eagles.
i dont knw yoruba prob with igbos but if they will come and change location
with my home state and stay with hausa/fulani's in one region since they prove time again to love fulanis and hate igbos.

if it will take only old eastern block plus edo and delta to make nigeria a super power in sports am voting it.

i blv every body has his/her area of specialization,
we in the belt are very good in agriculture.
the core north is good in animal farm
yorubas is good in media
old eastern block own sports

my point is that its high time we uphold credibility in this nation in other to maintain our glory.

its time we learn from the europe:

country like england lobbys and do anything possible to get a good player from any country to play for them no matter your color,
tell me why a sports commisioner in yoruba land will bring confusion and hatred in our national team just bcus they are made of almost one region.

for our information, most (80% - 90%) of the spanish national team are catalanians yet none complain, they choose glory rather than sentiment.

Spot on.

by the way i can see that hausa/fulani's is comfortable with 1 or 2 hausa man in the team,
its only yorubas i see that has prob with biafran domination in sports.

onething is certain in life "you can't be good in everything" you can only dominate one or two things.

fifa can never adopt 250 players in a field bcus nigeria cannot manage their diversity

Same thing they dished out during Super Falcons outings.Let it be know that we all need each other for this nation to move forward.

exactly my point. we need one another.

i dont knw why the major tribes like hausa/yorubas always tribalize everytin,
wat did they espect us the minority to do.

Yeske!:
Spot on.

It is not. Thompson Oliha (De boy) is a proper Edo from the family that is the head of the Uzama n Ihinron.

Oliseh, Ekoku and Ugbade might not be the Igbo-claiming Aniomas. Okocha and Keshi might be.Though Stephen Keshi has been adopted by the Edos.

Oliha--Edo.
Ekoku--Delta Igbo. His father was a founding member of Onu Anioma and Ohanaeze in the U.K
OLISEH: Delta Igbo and proud Igbo. His mother plays an active role in Ohanaeze women's wing Lagos chapter.
Okocha a proud Igbo and from the same community as Okonjo and Uwechue-prominent Ohanaeze chieftains.
Nduka-though Igbo, but I don't know much about him.
Okechukwu Keshi, from Oshimili in Delta state. The same community that produced some of Biafra's best fighters, Nwawo, Achuzia, Onwuatuegwu etc.

dayokanu: Keshi is from Delta, Ideye Brown is from Bayelsa, Victor Moses, Oboaboana, Enyeama from Cross River, Yobo from Rivers, Echiejile from Edo State, Efe Ambrose from Delta State, Fegur Ogude from Delta, Onazi from Benue State, Nosa Igiebor from Edo state

i thought these two were igbos all along. how come they have igbo names?

Malawian: i thought these two were igbos all along. how come they have igbo names?

Uwa Echiejile is Igbo while Enyeama is Ibibio.
Echiejile, Chiejine, Echiejine all mean the same thing. Echiejile in English means let 2morrow not come to an end. The actual meaning is let the world continue.
