That's the spirit. It's so relieving to know people like you are still in existence. #Naijawillgetthere

thanks a lot. Nigeria needs togetherness and not division or tribal warfare be it physic or on social media. Let's inculcate the spirit that binds us when we watch the Super Eagles or when we watch our favourite club side play and let's apply that same spirit in our day to day lives. The older generation messed things up and sowed a seed of hatred and discord amongst us. Let our generation be the change we need to move this great country forward. I'm sorry if my comments or posts have contained or incited hatred towards any ethnic group or tribe. I ask for forgiveness and plead we come together to make this great move to the next level. Even better than what it is.

What have igbos done to you guys? You are jealous of igbos because they are industrous. Just look around u, u will find out that most of the big shops around u are owned by igbos. The same is applicable to other places.

I really don't know what to be jealous of about you people, I think the reason why not much have changed for you lots is because you don't tell yourselves the truth. Isn't it high time, you put your acts together and stop allowing people to be embarrassing you both home and abroad? You have this air of superiority complex, but it's you people that needs everybody else, why is your places not developed? why can't you stay in your lands? why are you the ones everyone seems to be pursuing. You are industrous, why can't you open those wonderful shops in your own states? your governors gets allocations like lagos and every other places, what do they use it for? You won't ask questions, it is others you will be blaming when they choose to control their environment since you don't like to be controlled. You will say Tinumbu is a thief, but we can see what Tinumbu is sending money on, Your own governors that are stealing mercilessly, where are the money going?

When will you ask these questions?

Ngwanu!! All of you be coming home!! Fast fast!! ... I dont blame the igbos, i blame our stupid government!. People go to South Africa because and face discrimination because of the opportunities there. That place is fine but very difficult to live in. If u rent a place and ur friend visits he has to pay for sleeping in your room. This country does everything it can to make it hard for foreigners... But i tell you the truth its not only the igbos that do drugs there... Yorubas too ... But the Koko is that its nigerians that misbehave the most. We give and take at the same time...a lot of the video directors we have trained there.. Nigerians school there and do legit business. But in honestly tired.. Make una come house make we show this our government shege so una no go need seek greener pastures.

There is a certain type of bag in Nigeria known as “Ghana-Must-Go” bag. It was the type of bag used by 700,000 citizens of Ghana to leave Nigeria in 1983.Today it is South Africans asking foreigners to leave their country and return to their impoverished lands. In 1983, it was Nigeria ordering citizens of Ghana and others to leave their country and return to their impoverished lands. History has a way of repeating itself.

It happened that in the 1970s, Ghana was facing a lot of economic hardship, just about the same time Nigeria had an oil boom. People were doing well in Nigeria. The economy was flourishing and the news spread across Africa, reaching English speaking people in Ghana first.
Citizens of Ghana moved to Nigeria in their thousands for a better life. Just like in South Africa now, things became a bit difficult in Nigeria, and Nigerians began to blame the foreigners for the difficult life. With low oil prices, they accused people from Ghana of taking all their jobs.
They urged the government to send them packing with immediate effect. In 1983, the Federal Government of Nigeria enacted an expulsion order under the leadership of President Shehu Shagari whose government was said to be corrupt and would be overthrown that same year by General Muhammadu Buhari who is the current President-elect of Nigeria.

Instead of addressing corruption in Nigeria, Shagari decided to send foreigners packing. About 700,000 citizens of Ghana were returned to their country. During the exodus, they used a peculiar type of bag to move their belongings. It was called by Nigerians ‘Ghana must go’ bag.
As they were leaving Nigerians were rejoicing, laughing and praising their corrupt government. But as a writer noted, the situation only got worse and Nigeria never recovered even after Buhari took over and was overthrown also by General Babangida.

Two decades earlier, life was better in Ghana and the country ordered foreigners, especially Nigerians to leave their country, only to end up in Nigeria and be asked to go also. History has a way of repeating itself.These days, Nigerians are trooping to Ghana to study and do business. I do not know if they will be asked to leave some day. I hope Ghana has learnt from history.

Why cant we just say the truth once, the Ghana peeps you chased away from Agege,Pen Cinema etc, have you forgotten so easily, it is the same set of people that will tell igbo that they should go (In the same country) and imagine if igbo are from another country, it is the same set of people that their Oba will threaten hails and brimstone should Igbo vote their choice, it is the same set of people crying doublestandard will shout we (G)hosted you. Now how can the same set of people be shouting against South Africa

The simple truth is dont keep quiet. Voice out even if its on social media. #sayNOtoXenophobic attack. I read a post from a South-African a while ago...he's supporting the attacks because a Nigerian scamed him R8,000 and as such the government did not do anything about it so its okay to do jungle justice instead of reporting to the authorities...weldone South-Africans,weldone!

pazienza:
South Africa's Xenophobia isnt different from Nigerians Igbophobia. So, I don't know why Nigerian hypocrites are on south Africans case.

if Igbos are granted session now, would they stop encroaching on others land? Would they leave Lagos alone? If only Igbos can stay in there land and develop it,it would be so good. I just have one wish,that Buhari Administration develop Imo state to make it look close to Lagos in times of economic hub of the nation- I want Lagos to be de congested. They are causing embarrassment to Nigerians all over the world I just wish someone should build their state for them and make them strong in their own land- enough of their shameful and illegitimate claim to another person properties .

[quote author=mpowa post=32, @Mpowa, what truth are you talking about here? Is it the truth u are so economical with that u cannot even acknowledge the fact that igbos contribute immensely in the development of any place they find themselves? The worst happened to the jews during the second world war, but they were not discouraged from moving forward. You should find out their position in american's economy today. You are talking of embarrassment? So the westerners who developed us embarrassed themselves, 'abi'?
