Gbawe:

Orji Kalu, for example, may be a crook but he is not my problem and I am not in the least bit interested in being his loudest critic because he has done nothing to me and whatever he does wrong should be tackled by those his actions affect directly. That is correct, appropriate and normal human behaviour

Seriously.

People only know him in this neck of the woods because of his Sun newspapers which were initially really popular and his feud with Obasanjo (similar to the sympathy Amaechi gets against GEJ)

All I feel for anything happening outside the South-west is mere curiosity...

These Igbo guys on Nairaland join up with other Yoruba people who are, naturally, dissatisfied to criticize every government action since not all Yorubas are ACN sympathizers. In fact, most of the accusations levied on Tinubu are by his fellow Yoruba people (activists, rivals, idealists and disgruntled elements).

In my opinion, its not a bad phenomenon. It keeps the ACN governments on their toes and improves service delivery.

Meanwhile, the eastern states fly completely under the radar. Ebonyi anyone? People forget its as old as Osun... How long was Chime out for again? Theodore Orji nko?

The Anambrans seem to be a very proud sub-group and so Obi goes through a little scrutiny...


All politicians are crooks but the Eastern governors are a very lucky bunch.

Abi? When every educated adult from their states is busy attacking Fashola over the Ikoyi bridge and using Akpabio as the poster boy for how development should be...

Akpabio... Yet another non-southeastern governor.

Hey Malc, how did you come into conclusion that people from the SE hate Tinubu? Did you use nairaland to justify your claims or do you have a reliable source to defend your baseless thread?
Re: Why Do People From South East Hate Tinubu More Than Those From South-west? by takedat(m): 2:27pm On Jun 07, 2013
PointB:






Tinubu is a sophisticated thief currently left to run wild by FG as he serves their interest at the moment. Expect reality to change the moment his 'usefulness' expires.
Why is Tinubu left to run wild while some former governors from a particular region like Orji, Nnamani are currently being prosecuted by the FG? I guess the simple answer to why Tinubu still remains a political heavyweight even with all the unverified allegations of enriching himself with state funds, is because he "is a politician extraordinaire, a political tactician." OBJ made more verocious attempt at destroying Tinubu's political relevance but failed woefully and his other detractors seem befuddled because they are unable to understand his methodology.

None of his supporters have come out to say he isn't corrupt, after all 99.9% of Nigerian politicians are corrupt especially those from a region which produced 3 senate presidents who were removed because of fraud/graft and one being an ex-convict(Enwerem). Not all Yorubas worship or glamorize Tinubu, but you've got to respect his determination even with all the odds against him! The Ziks, Ahmadu Bello and Awolowo's weren't saints or perfectionists, they all had their flaws!

This man(Tinubu) built a party(ACN) which most SWesterners gladly accepted after a disruptive reign of the killer party(PDP). You do not expect him to build a party and not lead it! If his party is able to deliver some dividends of democracy unlike the inept PDP, why won't his people respect him?

Garri the 1st: Going by what I've been seeing on NL, I can say that Tinubu is hated mostly by people from the South-Eastern part of the country. This is surprising since Tinubu's past actions and inactions affected mainly people in the southwest.

So my question is:
Why is Tinubu hated more by people who are not primarily affected by his actions and inactions??

His trademark "glasses" look scares the shit out of them because he reminds them of Awolowo. grin

Other than NL back and forth, I do not know of any SE person who cares about Tinubu in real life
But SW hatred for SE people go beyond cyberspace; it is real. If in doubt ask them why they shortchanged Zik, why Awolowo committed genocide against Igbos, and why they hate Ojukwu (even in death) and supported Hausa to stop Biafra and kill 3 million Igbos. Ask them why they hate Achebe even though he made a true point against a Yoruba (one Yoruba) and not against the Yoruba as a race. Ask them why their Obas are raping Igbo female corpers, and why their kidnappers specifically kidnap Igbo traders.

PointB: Most people from across the Niger don't hold thieves, fraudsters, and drug barons, certificate forgers, etc in high regards, especially if they continue to shamelessly press for acceptance in public sphere.


Yet they hold Jonathan,Abacha, Babangida ,Akpabio ,Ohakim,Ibori e.t.c in high regard and constitute 95% of the drug dealers ,Kidnappers and fraudsters Nigeria export to South Africa ,Asia and the USA.Need i remind you that Igbos are political prostitues who will lick the azz of anyone who gives them money.I mean just take a look at the history of Igbo politics ,it is a classic example what intelligent folks would never do if they want to be relevant or taken serious.Fact is unless APC produces a Igbo Candidate an igbo man will never be President of Nigeria.After Jonathan comes sambo ,deal with it

exactly my point! I have never seen any igbo man in real life who gives a hoot about Tinubu talk less of hating him. Probably i should ask the yorubas on this forum why HID Awolowo hates Tinubu?
Re: Why Do People From South East Hate Tinubu More Than Those From South-west? by PapaBrowne(m): 3:04pm On Jun 07, 2013
I love Tinubu. I think he is about the smartest politician Nigeria has seen in decades. He is extremely calculative, very suave and knows best when to strike. He lives for himself and would pitch tent with the right camp as soon as all the chips are down.

The people I pity are those who put their trust in him but don't have the right amount to pay for his services.

Ribadu, Buhari and Atiku can attest to his sagacity.

Jonathan on the other hand always has a smile on his face when he sees Tinubu. He knows his price and he can pay.

Some great points. What no normal and balanced person will argue against is that it is entirely abnormal to be focused malevolently on a Politician who actually has no effect on how you live your life - especially given the fact that you have so many political misrulers directly under your nose to worry about!!!! When folks do that, then there are obvious underlying issues driving such worthless and unobjective obsessions which robs them of the chance to introspect and make more of themselves via getting more out of those who lead them.

We can logically break down the specific duties of Tinubu, from when he began his political career till today, that will shows that most of his critics from the SE have absolutely no basis in logic and political reality to obdurately focus on and obsess about this man. None at all !!!!

That malevolent obsession is even more condemnable when, as you stated, the worthless SE administrators who are doing nothing at all get far less attention on this forum from their own citizens who show far more interest in discussing Tinubu and everything SW related !!!!! Highly unusual and aberrant behaviour that anyone seeking to be mentally balanced, fulfilled and societally effective would work to avoid.

A large proportion of those fixated on Tinubu's activity are paid agents. As soon as they got disengaged, you either don't hear from them anymore or less frequently(Beaf, jmaine, pointB). PointB is especially earning his pay by rallying the Igbo group on NL behind GEJ using Biafra sentiment.

We have some that have tried to rally Yoruba group here. They have tried to use Awolowo's name, tried to use Abiola's during the MAulAG saga but that failed woefully. They will try the religious, only God can tell what the outcome of that will be.

PointB:


Was it GEJ apologists to took Tinubu to court ob account of his certificates?
Was Tunde Bakare playing the PDP card when he questioned Tinubu's identity and called him a bastard?
What about the various sleaze linked to Tinubu, and his continuous looting of Lagos treasury via his many schemes?
Did GEJ apologists operate all those foreign accounts linked with Tinubu while in office?

Your response is typical of ACN goons, and half baked ACN intellectuals on parade in Nigeria - blame everything on the big bad PDP! In any case, Tinubu is a typical yoruba theif, loquacious to boot. In saner culture he would rather play in the shadows, not at the fore. Alas, this foolishness is called 'political sophistication'

Here are other various allegation yet to be cleared by this Tinubu and comapany:



Tinubu is a sophisticated thief currently left to run wild by FG as he serves their interest at the moment. Expect reality to change the moment his 'usefulness' expires.

[b][/b]I THINK THE APPROPRIATE TITLE FOR THIS THREAD SHOULD BE:

Why Do People From South East NAIRALANDERS Hate Tinubu More Than Those From South-west?

Ditto for a similar thread about Ojukwu.

Some topics and posts are inadvertently created in such a way as to ignite and fan embers of hate about ethnic groups and create feedback loops that generate self-fulfulling prophecies.

By the way do NL south-westerners really inherently hate Ojukwu? or do SE nairalanders really inherently hate Tinubu?

I stand to be corrected but I think a good number of people (referred to as haters) are people who have been pushed to take sides based on their ethnic origin (charity begins at home?) in this SE vs. SW matter.
A good number of them will point fingers to others on the opposing side and say 'They started it' But if people take sides and insult others, then more people will take sides and insult others, and then more and more people will become involved and at a point it will become a e-herd or and e-crowd. We all know that crowds are uncontrollable whether physical or e-.
