Onlytruth: I will again call for MASSOB to be forced into dissolution in Igboland.
We do not need them for anything. We are not leaving Nigeria. We are Nigerians and must defend our land as Nigerians using any possible means. If we cannot defend our lands in Nigeria, is it a cowardly MASSOB that would form the new military for an independent Biafra?
I still maintain that either MASSOB changes leadership or it must disband, because it is turning Igboland into a land of cowards. We are NOT (by a very looooooooog shot) cowards. But MASSOB is steadily creating a new culture of cowardice in Igboland.

Nuff said.

DerideGull:


This is an insult that could not be overlooked. The Fulani of yesteryears that made entry into what became Nigeria in 1800s can not and will not be considered as the second comers. Even when the combined forces of Caliphate which included everything north of Niger River from Lokoja had Yoruba of Oyo fame on the run, they were slapped into dementia at some place in present day Kogi State by relatively unknown Akagbe of Igbo powerhouse.

Onlytruth:

Ngwanu provide the grazing zone in your backyard now. Onwere onye ji gi na aka LOL
How many indigenes of a place have Igbo settlers, residents, or even visitors ever killed in Nigeria?
It is people like you that work steadily to attract killers into Igboland in the name of tolerance.
Next thing you start to call sane people all kinds of names just to justify your insane theories.

kpota ndi oloko nye ha ala obi gi.
Arrant nonsense.

OPC.NAIRALAND:


Your cowardice has always remained undiscovered because your homeland had never battled a foreign army and neither was it stressed from any military strife, internally or otherwise.

The civil war opened a window into your cowardice and your inability to back public rhetoric with political resolve has truly left the door wide open for even the Nigerian minority groups to view you as a walk over.

Whether you like it or not, Nupe and Ijaw have both displaced you politically and Tiv is nursing ambition to monopolize the Benue water basin. If they succeed you will be importing yam from Gboko.

DerideGull: I have preached the essence of self-defense to any Igbo who cared to listen. It is unfortunate Biafra lost the war which provided its opponent the opportunity to disarm Ndigbo and instigate the sense of owing ammunition to equal armed robbery. Since after the war, most communities in Igbo can not fend off attacks by two Fulani herdsmen armed with AK-47.

Even when one preaches the idea of possessing a weapon, some peers look at the person as crazy and readily jump onto teaching of bible. When a person can not fight for freedom, death is the surest consolation.

ndu_chucks:

The above post shows that University education does mean that you cease to be dumb, narrow minded, and stoopid. Fulani people have been grazing on that land way before you people arrived from Benin and Yoruba land.

abagoro:

The Fulani vs farmers problem is not peculiar to Imo State, Igboland and Nigeria. We as Nigerians can all come together and create a migratory zone for them or as well tutor them on modern grazing. The only other option is an all out killing or ethnic cleansing of the nomads which you and I know is impossible.

Supergenius: make igbo and yoruba unite to destroy hausa..instead of quarreling among yourselves and d hausa's are just there laughing at us

Onlytruth:

Only the Igbo have seen WAR in Nigeria. Others have NEVER seen war. FACT.
We fought local and FOREIGN fighters/countries for almost 3 years, and killed 250,000 of those forces.
On our military side, we lost 110,000, but millions of our civilians died from war crimes committed by those forces we fought.

NO OTHER GROUP IN NIGERIA HAS EVER SEEN WAR BEFORE AND AFTER BIAFRA.

You can rant all you want, but I can assure you that even now, the North is scared to death about declaring war. They are been killed, but they fear what Igbos went through. Why not they try and get REAL war experience? lol
As for being displaced politically, all I do is laugh at you because your Yoruba is not even in political equation these days. Take a close look now at Nigeria.

Your political future looks very bleak. lol

Onlytruth:

All I know is that I do not want to see any killer in my backyard. Period.
I live in a country that makes sense, where every property is respected according to laws.
Land is a PROPERTY and must be respected. It is the onus of all to respect property rights.
It is not my duty to train the Fulani on how to respect property laws. My father paid hard earned money to send me to school to learn things that pertain to modernity. The Fulani should go to school and learn modern ways of ranching.
It is THEIR responsibility, not NIGERIA's.
Igbo people trade and farm, Nigeria does not aid or teach us how to do it. We do it ourselves.
For me the whole thing is simple: MY LAND IS MY LIFE, and whoever threatens either I will fight to death. Simple.

Yorubest:

I'm sure the Fulani herdsmen never intended to harm innocent Imo villagers too, they only invaded the villages because they wanted to capture the grass

Mighty Fortress: I did not want to comment, but I cant help giving vent to my annoyance right now! Nairaland mods are bloody ethnic bigots! I once commented on one thread and got banned by one of the fools! Well, here are animals disobeying the rules of the forum and d stupid mods do nothing about it! Cowardly animals spewing hateful and inciteful ethnic comments from the base comforts of their dirty lairs! Why are the Igbos so hated by every other Nigerian tribe? Is it their fault that they such exhibit resilience and excellence in the face of almost insurmountable odds? Igbos thrive every where, Maiduguri, Sokoto, Kebbi.. You name it! Yet rather than other Nigerians to learn a lesson from these industrious people, they see them as a threat! This same suituation of hatred and resentment was one of the causes of the 1966 pogroms! A tribe that has not produced a Nigerian president in over 40 years! Of course you'd feel threatened. An Igbo Man has something extra inside of him and thats what you fear! Cos these mediocre and cowardly peeps who rejoice that Fulanis are killing Igbos cant lay a finger on whatever it is that makes an Igbo man tick! Well, when the chips are down, dont expects them to make the same mistakes of '67.
Mods, ban me if u wish.. It wont take me 5 mins to be back!

Italiano1:


Now what have you achieved with your sermon? Nothing!

You have publicly admitted that you are fraudulent because it will take you 5 minutes to be back after you have been banned.

I disagree with your summation about Ibo enterprise and most people have not rejoiced at the killing of Ibos- far from it. The question is why you have not put words to action.

whitecat007: That is not going to happen, sorry. The enemy of our enemy is our friend, do the math.

Emperor_007: .

I blame the villagers , and more blame goes to Okorocha Rochas for not living up to expectation by being politically confused.


This's something that must be checked, to avoid reoccurrence. A good lesson would always make them not to try again next time.




.

Yorubest: This is serious

Following BRF's deportation to the East, Fulanis are now exporting them to their graves?

This is very very sad

Both actions have not been met with the acclaimed Igbo braveness

Where are the brave hearts of Igbo land. Where?

Arise and fight

I have Igbo third cousins please

slap1: If I know Irete people, there must be a reppraisal attack. I wish this happened in Aba, both the Fulani and their cow-siblings would be history!
And, who rears cows with an AK47?

Abagworo:

I believe you live in USA and I assure you that the US once had this same problem. The links I posted earlier are from other African countries and not necessarily Fulani but other traditional nomadic groups. You seem to prefer the option of wiping off Fulani people from earth which stinks of wickedness and is impossible in this modern era.

presher: FULANI ARE LYK MALARIA DEY AFFECT ALL MOST EVERY BODY IN NIGERIA THEY HAVE HAVE TAKEN OVER KWARA JOS AND SOME PARTS OF BENUE AND THEY ATTACK DELTA OSUN DOES THIS MEAN DAT NIGERIANS ARE COWARD?

MaximusDMeridux:

Remove Yorubas and other sane people from your list. The Northerners have show they will never forgive ibos for 1966! And I hope when you begin your foolish modern agenda you know that they will not be limiting themselves to swords and knife like 1966, now they are more than willing to have only 1 of them drag down 100 of you people! The Yorubas have by far been the stabilizing factor in Nigeria for if not their measured diplomacy and moderation of Nigeria's society and the example of peaceful cohabitation, the Hausa/Fulani seems prepared to never stop their attacks on the ibos.

collynzo2: Typical coward mentality from Yorubas looking for who to fight for them. Boko haram attack christians (Igbo, Yoruba and even Hausa) the cowards say they are attacking Igbos. Fulani cattle herdsmen attack mostly Middle belt and Yoruba settlements, with just a few Igbo settlements, the cowards also claim they are attacking Igbos. Keep fooling yourself, we've been hearing news of Boko Haram entering a few Western states, If God forbid, they start destroying those states now, you'll also claim they are attacking Igbos. Keep deceiving yourself.

Onlytruth:

The stoopid thing is that a so called educated man is tacitly supporting pre-19th century animal pasturing system for 21st century.
Any day I see any Fulani cattle on my land, they will meet 21st century resistance to their 19th century way of life.
Land can be bought by anybody in Nigeria, and there is law against trespassing. I encourage them to buy theirs just like I bought mine.

I somehow have an assured feeling that this Fulani madness will meet a final solution in Igboland one of these days.
