PRXPERT:
young man! what can you use as yardstick to measure who is clannish or not in nigeria... I know pretty well that igbos in nigeria are mostly multilingual than any tribe!!

I was addressing the issue of herd mentality not clannishness. I agree we are more liberal.

I also agree that they blend into their environment (so we also end up with loads of Igbo children that can't speak the language and other such cons for the pros). But majority supported GEJ even though we gained diddly squat from his government. That's herd mentality right there.

Marcelini:


Ignorant comment. GEJ is neither an Igbo man nor from the SE. Our support for him couldn't have been clannish, as he is not from an Igbo clan, instead it's a hallmark of Igbo tolerance and liberalism, sticking out our neck for a non Igbo, whose people once betrayed us.

I don't care why you supported failure.

Just to inform you that the Yorubas and other ethnic groups that voted Buhari cannot be accused of clanishness since a significant number also voted Goodluck. Also a larger number voted for Buhari, who is Fulani.

The difference is that a good number also voted GEJ while nearly all Igbos voted against Buhari. So who is more liberal?

DelGardo:

The Buhari/ Osibanjo ticket sold in SW because of Osibanjo factor, it was clannish.

The Yorubas secretly believe that Osibanjo would become the president once old age catches up with Buhari.

Lol, you just can't make up your mind, can you? GEJ is not Igbo and his VP is not Igbo, our voting for him represents liberalism on our part, as you pointed out GEJ presidency yielded no special benefits for Ndiigbo.

plaetton:


Wrong on that score sir.

First, Jonathan did not score 100% of votes in any Igbo state.

Secondly, people in southeast are impervious to brainwashing. So there was no way to convince them that a colorless( just being polite) and pretentious character like Buhari would ever do anything beneficial for the Nigerian state.

Their vote can be seen as against the everything that Buhari represented, when you strip away the propaganda.

And to prove my point, towards the tail end of the last election campaign, I had bought in the change mantra and propaganda myself.

I see you point. But recent experience has shown that Igbos are as easy to brainwash as the maligned almajiris. Just take a look at how they bought the Nnamdi Kalu and IPOB message.

The great people of the east are now led by characters like that. And we have people like T Orji representing our interests in Abuja and con men like Rochas and Ifeanyi Uba leading our thoughts. you will agree that that is a step back from Zik, Nzeogwu, Okpara and co.

So where is the firmament of this our grandstanding, that you put so well in your above post?

The truth is that the rest of the country is looking forward and we are soooo going backwards, mentality and leadership wise.

Automatic internet based translator service doesn't make an Igbo.
Pretending to be Igbo or a Christian shows how sinister your motives are, and you don't fool nobody pal. You're a sick tribal gingoistic troll with your brain set on the word "Igbo"

king is sentenced to death, joshua has not appeared in court talk more of sentencing and is still operating his church

both should be punished thats all!

I absolutely agree that there is a leadership vacuum in the East.

But let me reiterate that there is a mistaken perception that characters in the public limelight bearing Igbo names represent the voices, ideals and interests of Igbos.
Nothing can be further from the truth if you know the dynamic and republican nature of the Igbo mind.

Okorocha, T Orji, Ifeanyi Uba , etc do not speak or represent the Igbos in shape or form.

However, on Nnamdi Kanu, I differ slightly.
Though, majority of Igbos would condemn his methodology, the Cry for justice, inclusion , equality and respect within the federal structure of Nigeria is a genuine Cry that every Igbo person cries , perhaps not as loudly, angrily and obnoxiously as Nnamdi Kanu and his youthful followers.

In other words, while Nnamdi Kanu's philosophy and method does not represent the wide sphere of Igbo thought and attitudes, the underpinning resentment for a lopsided and unfair federal structure, though tepid, runs through all Igbo consciousness.

His detention, and subsequent treatments, the shooting of unarmed protesters, does more to legitimize his voice than he himself would have ever accomplished.

Unlike your own post , mutaclarro is a vowed Igbo antagonist, and he's proudly so, but you my friend is not Igbo. No matter how much Igbo translated(most misplaced) phrases you are able to paste on your write up.

You would have done better getting off your tribal cloak to discuss death penalty, political victimization, or even criminal embezzlement of public funds. These are hot and current social issues globally, and it doesn't have to Igbo, Yoruba, or Hausa. But, I know you Yorubas want to make it look like Igbos are mostly affected, so that you can feel better?

plaetton:


My friend, why is it a feel good drug, a fix for you never-do-wells to insult Igbo people at every slightest opportunity?
Has an Igbo man also stolen your lunch?

What does Rev King have to do with me or every other Igbo in the world ?
Why must you insult me and my people over rev King?
Is he the king of the Igbos?

Are you so pretty minded, so intellectually bereft that you cannot make the distinction between some people who are exercising free speech, and the entire people of ignoland?

That some misguided people with Igbo names are asking for his release is not in any way tantamount to the millions of Igbos being in the same delusional state.

Anyone who knows anything at all about Igbos is that we don't think or act in herds. We are not clannish, and are probably the most diverse and dynamic in terms of worldviews.

The Nigerian prison population is equally representative of the Nigerian ethnic diversity.

there's no difference between Rev King and any other igbo man. Your plan is to cause division in this country but you have failed and will continue failing. Igbos are the same anywhere. Give them an inch they'll take a mile.

Maybe you should tell me their fathers

Rev King is a Pentecostal Church dude

Rev King‘s organisation Christian Praying Assembly (CPA) is a praying band just like Practical Praying Band (Madam Nwokolo) where he break out from. It is not coat or speaking in “tongue“ that makes one a penticostal.

There are five BLOCKS in CAN

1-CSN (CATHOLIC)
2-CCN (PROTESTANTS)
3-PFN (PENTECOSTALS)
4-OAIC (SPIRITUAL CHURCHES)
5-ECWA/TEKAN
& CPA belongs to OAIC.

What u dont know keep shut or ask questions from people that know.

Armaggedon:
op u are not very correct. Infact u are not being fair to Igbos.

As far as religion is concerned, Igbos are the least gullible pple. No igbo takes religion to the extreme like Hausa and yoruba do.

For example, pastor muoka of the lords chosen was accussed by his member of underhand spiritual dealings

pastor Awuzia of zoe ministry was also accussed also

but yoloba pastors who commit similar crimes are instead revered and hailed by their kinsmen as 'Daddy' even Tb Joshua who was caught on tape trying to cover the death of close to 100 members of his church has not been touched.

Adeboye,kumuyi and co are just like revd king but are feigning saintly mien. If tb joshua was igbo he would be in jail by now

summary: igbos expose their criminal pastors, yolobas cover and worship thiers

killing revd king may be justice but leaving his yoloba mates is injustice because equality is equity

mumu talk

Your inferiority complex betrays you.

By simple psycho-analysis of your rabid anti-Igbo complex here on Nairaland, I suspect, and you very much sound like an abandoned illegitimate child, who thinks his runaway father was an Igbo man, hence the deep resentment of all Igbos.

Sad sad.

Sorry lad, go and look for your father somewhere else.

Igbo men don't abandon their children, legitimate or illegitimate.

Don't u have an iota of shame bro?. Honestly tribalism has damage your instinct. Who told u that if a yoruba pastor is found guilty in the law, he won't be dealt with.

You must be sick and high on some Aba weed.....how dare you say the government should let go for God! This is men's world and our communities have conventional and traditional laws that governs it... If anyone bridged the law must face the law violently...beside even Jesus himself ask his followers to obey those in authority.


The government have given their verdict and it must stand. Wish it was you or family member that king victimized, then I'd know what's your stand. Mofo!

EdCure:

Honestly. They don't seem to understand simple English nor abide by conventional ethics.
They are stuck in the bubble of igbohood (and whatever silliness it represents).

mouthfoaming 101

leave them let me go and commit crimes in malaysia, by the time you are caught, ure already dead before mentioning your tribe, tribal sentiments, enemies of progress, if you are caught stealing common bread for market they will lynch you but when it comes to the truth, tribal sentiments will start coming in.

christopher123:
What sort of stupidity is going on in this country ...a self styled pastor that have women serve him naked ..I mean stark naked and at the end of the day he felt deified...now the climax is that he pured fuel on some girls and burned them ...he said his name is Rev Pastor King...now he has been condemned. That is the law. If you do the crime you got to do the time

Now some igbo or some idiots that claim that they are igbo are asking that he should be left free! Can you imagine how far we have debased. I am an igbo man and I hate it when sentimentality is brought to things that should be tackled logically. This is madness

This dude called King or Rev King killed an innocent and gullible woman and if the court has found him guilty and he should be hanged so be it . God bless his soul. We should stop whipping up tribal sentiments ...the first was Metuh, then Onyeka that songstress now this so called pastor Rev King ...

He is a disgrace to christiandom ,a disgrace to igbohood and a disgrace to sanity. Jesus was simple and he never attributed anything to himself ..we as Christians should follow his steps ...if this was when Christianity was Christianity... He would have been ostracised and excommunicated by Catholic Church .. What a travesty

On what happened to the family of the people he killed or roasted ....

I will be just and fair . I will say the truth yes I am igbo, yes I am a Christian , yes, I am a black ...this is not a tribal thing because all the tribe commit heinous crimes and this isn't a race thing cos all the race commit bizzare crimes so we should call a spade a spade. Yes I deeply understand that igbo look out for their brothers be it anywhere that is fine but while doing this we shouldn't condone some evil which I know many igbo do not

Those pleading for the Rev King are not igbo spokesmen but they are paid pleaders with igbo sounding names which their origin are questionable ....

Rev King should do the time cos he did the crime ...simple

Since the aftermath of the 2015 elections igbos ve lost their sense of reasoning.
They will need more than deliverance to regain it
