Biafra thread everywhere. Na God win o

HopeAtHand:
Shizzlestar, you are an a.ss.

You are obviously uninfort and ignorant of the fact that tribes have the names they call themselves and that the British decided to rename tribes according to whatever they felt at the moment.

We called ourselves Iwheronha but the British changed it to Ikwerre when they were acquiring land from Us for the building of seaport and subsequently, railway terminal.

Face the topic mr Biafra, explain why the 'ultra-smart' Igbo people who crafted an analogy in which they were the Tiger would decide to run away from Goat and Sheep..There is something im missing in the analogy..Can you kindly explain in very logical terms how a tiger will flee from foat and sheep.

Thank you.

first of all, All ikwere r igbos.

Secondly , direct ur talks n anger against d north n Yoruba , they are the people siphoning ur oil.

HopeAtHand:


Lack of respect and regard for others is the reason Igbos are having problems with other tribes.

Imagine saying Ikwerre is Igbo without regarding the sensibilities of Ikwerre people who fought to ensure the constitution of Nigeria recognises Us as a separate from Igbo..please be guided.

Igbos are a big and successful people, if Ikwerres were Igbo, nobody will tell us to key in..Once again, be guided.

shizzleStar:
Again you are a despicable mo.ron!

So the British renamed ikwere tribe? lmao! how come the never renamed Igbo, Hausa or fulani or Yoruba tribes? or nupe, oron, angas, berom or any other minority tribe?


Mind you the British could only rename a place and not a tribe. This is because they can't pronounce words accurately as the locals. Eg, igbo-uzo also pronounced ibuzo by locals(Igbos), was pronounced ibusa by the british (notice the similar sound). At least there's a correlation with the way it sounds and is pronounced. Apart from this place (Igbo-uzor), the only place the British changed was to coin the name Nigeria, from Niger-area.

Now back to your senseless claim of british changing 'iwheronha' to 'ikwere', pls how does those two words relate or sound alike? or how do they mean same thing compared to the 'ibuzo' example I gave you? Sorry, nice attempt but your lies won't fly.


Your thread and the analogy you seek to be clarified was pulled from your anus obviously cos that isn't the link to the Ipob page. This is the original link www.ipob.org

Be that as it may, a tiger doesn't flee from a goat and yam. Rather it finds a way to dwell among its like mind with which it shares same language, culture, heritage, religion, belief etc. Carnivores and herbivores are not meant to dwell together as there can be no peace, meaning they simply cannot co-habitat owing to glaring dissimilarities and difference such as language, culture, lifestyle etc as well as obvious neck-deep mistrust, hatred and betrayal. That is the moral of the tiger, goat and yam theory.

Obviously the parable is beyond your shallow level and myopic reasoning and dense brain, hence you lack the comprehensive and analytical skill to translate it.

Deltagiant:


What do you have to say about the 'sensibilities' of other 'ikwerre' who have been fighting to be indentified as Igbos and not to be separated from their kins from the SE?

tonytony208:
Funny enough, the goat and sheep teamed up to beat the tiger in a war. That tiger must have been a toothless entity and only a tiger by name and nothing more!

HopeAtHand:


Which Ikwerre people..Ezepromoe?? Mtcheeew..

Where was Ezepromoes kind when we fought tirelessly for a distinct recognition?

Please check Nigerian constitution and see Igbo oneside and Ikwerre anoda side...

HopeAtHand:


[s]If you arent aware the British rename people, then i think ive been wasting time and energy engaging an uninformed and ignorant mofo.

Visit Rivers state and ponder why people bear Jack, Green, Whyte, Harry, Peterside etc...if you fail to educate yourself, its not my problem you're unenlightened,

shizzleStar:
how does ikwere and ihweronha relate? or @bolded why didn't they name ikewre jacktown , whyteshere, Harrycombe, petersdale etc?

What about people from Ikwere land who are proud of their identities as Igbos? Stop insulting the sensibilities of such Igbos. y
You are just a daft cvnt. Stop trying already cos your lies are DOA.

Irredeemable, Brainwashed, despicable f00l.

chuna1985:



All Ikweres are igbos. Its so daft as u guys keep fighting that.

Its really silly when a Man speaks Igbo n answers Igbo name n all his community n localities answer Igbo names n yet they open their mouth to claim they are not igbos.

Shame on to any Ikwere that claims to be non Igbo.

shame.

Ikwerre town was renaimed from Iguocha to Port Harcourt by the british.

As for Iwheronha, read up the Akalaka brothers...take time to study, stop being redundant.

zendy:


This is something I have always pondered. How can a people who speak Igbo as their ancestral language and bear Igbo surnames turn around and say they are not Igbo? What makes a person Igbo? I believe that Ikweres are Igbo and that Porthhacourt is an Igbo city,however, I'm not going to force anyone to be Igbo if they don't want be.

Beautiful@bolded.

When a people have collectively decided to dissociate themselves to the extent of ensuring it is enshrined in the constitution of the land, what else are we talking about.

The manner in which Igbos shamefully cling to Ikwerre as being a part of them is now becoming sinister..There is obviously a hidden agenda somewhere.

Because pride wouldn't allow a reasonably people to continue to find brotherhood when the other isnt reciprocating, their insistence would continue to strengthen Ikwerre resolve to do away with Igbos.

HopeAtHand:
Culled from Ipob

IGBO, HAUSA, YORUBA are different people with different Language, Religion, blood, mentality, culture, food and life-style. We were never one until one British harlot forced us in one cage and gave it the name ZOO (Nigeria). Since then, The TIGER, the GOAT and the SHEEP in the cage are fighting each other and will keep on the fight until freedom is achieved. NOTE; You can't put the Tiger, the Goat and the sheep together and expect them to live peacefully, is either you are gambling with their lives or with their resources.... The TIGER want to be free from the zoo, give him freedom NOW.

# www.ipob.com


So in the Zoo(Nigeria), the Tiger(Igbo) is running away from the Goat(Hausa) and the Sheep(Yoruba) ..This is an insult to wildlife..What an analogy..What will make a TIGER run from domestic animals is what i need Igbos and Biafran activists alike to explain to me..There is more to this than what a rational mind can ponder.

tonychristopher:
y have you decided t display stupidity

what will u say to ikwerre that said they are igbo like amaechi

biafranking:
bro,dont mind hopeathand,he will go to any length just to provide any fake links that will hurt the great ndigbos...

I've even forgotten you re from ikwerreland,but hopeAtHand will never see you as his brother again.lol
You know why'? Cos yu said you re igbo...

HopeAtHand:


Amaechi is a politician..he wil say anything to fool gullible Igbos

Deltagiant:

No, I mean the likes of late Chiefs Okogbule, E. Aguma; Uche Okwukwu, Igo Okparanma or even Chief Isaac Mahonwu the current deputy chairman of Ohaneze Ndigbo. Or don't their feelings count?

tonychristopher:


the same way you are a socialist and you can say anything to fool some ikwerre people in assuming they are not igbo


but I will go with amaechi and the eze of etche and ikwerre

TechRev:
The tigers are not scared of the sheep or goat. But angry that as the saying goes a pack of wolves lead by a sheep will behave like a sheep. When a goat leads a tiger to hunt for food, is it not disaster??

IPOB are right when they say that the zoological republic of Nigeria is filled with baboons and monkeys, the baboons and monkeys cant reason. At least one of them in the name of General Buhari reasoned right once when he called them dogs and baboons.

biafranking:
is it all the ikwerres re aware of few greedy men fighting for their own interest?
Cos They wanted a share from the national cake,hence the denial of ndigbos from ur dad and mum and relatives but not all ikwerre supported to deny their igbo brothers why? Cos they re sensible and will neva deny their origin..
Guy,this is 21century,yu should know what is applicable by a common sense na..
Why do u love this ikwerre and igbo brawl?.
Somtime,i feel you re not from rivers state but base there and want to cause enemity among igbos and their brothers ikwerres..
God will forbid you in ten fold and thunder will strike those that want to cause igbo disunity in the east..ameen..

honeychild:

See the truth is that the majority of ikwerrrs try very hard to distance themselves from igbos. I have lived amongst ikwerre for more than 10 yrs. The average ikwerre man will even claim not to understand igbo. I remember meeting an ikwerre boy named Chizi, who claimed not to understand the meaning of Chidi. It's ridiculous to non igbos who can clearly see that they are the same people, but it's their choice.

biafranking:
so the guy name is chizoba and he shortened it to chizi? And still did not know the meaning of chi di?he s nothing but a pretender.
That s how some ikwerres behaved my dear,like dis naughty guy called hopeathand,he can speak igbo fluently and he knows the similarity between ikwerres and igbo linguistically but still denied himself and his origin...

What a great shame to some of them...

HopeAtHand:


i can speak Igbo simply because i decided to choose it as the compulsory national language over Yoruba and Hausa..

theres nothing lost in learning a new language..it comes in handy in due time.

mikeokiro:










you are very correct, I am ikwere guy, I was told we were not igbo until I grew up and travelled out of my town, visited other parts of igbo land and other parts of Nigeria, then I realised the falsehood, then I ask myself how can my town ISI OKPO which is 100% igbo word and is the headquarter of Ikwerre LGA,



That is less than 10 minutes drive from port harcourt airport and our villages ADA NTA, NKARA AHIA, ALI MINI, AZU MINI and others together with our market days EKE, ORIE, AHUO, NKWO , exactly the same as in other igbo towns



And our markets such as AHIA EKE, NKWO NTA all in my town and our surnames such as AZUBUIKE, AMAECHI, WIKE , WOBODO, and others and some people are still living in that falsehood that we are not igbos,



My ikwere language is even more clearer and far more understandable by any igbo speaking person than those of them from anioma in delta state or from nsukka or abakeliki in ebonyi state yet they see themselves as igbos,



The Biafran war has come and gone , the oil we thought we have is day by day becoming less precious, please , lets us educate ourselves please and stop the years long falsehood by our parents and grandparents because of their selfish interest.
