An average igbo man doesn't do eye service. If he likes you,he will let you know,if he doesn't like you,he will let you know. The whole nation doesn't understand this.
If satan contests against God,the yorubas will stand with God,but if God loses,they will switch sides and make satan their new best friend.
Igbos will take a stand and either sink or swim with you.
I tell people that the day an igboman will become president,the yorubas who are mocking them today will become their new best friend to 'gossip' the hausas. That's why if the north is scheming for power,they see igbos as their main opposition and vice versa,the west will always tag along with the eventual winner.
As for Joe Igbokwe,I don't blame him. He is feeding his household from the crumbs off Tinubu's table. He has to say such to earn his pay.
And let it be known that igbos didn't just hate buhari because of GEJ. His antecedent from 1983 to PTF boss shows his innate disdain and contempt for igbos.

kstix:
Spot on joe igbokwe.. I commend u for speaking the truth as it is despite the bigotry of d ipob flats who insult u not knowing they are just proving ur points to be true and factual. The same ipob flat heads that didnt mince a word of complaint during jonathan's regime even when he did worse things. So buhari got all northerners in places of power? So what? Dele momodu said he doesnt care if all his appointees are from daura and so do i... So long as they deliver and do their jobs effectively. That is how yorubas think.. We dont work with ethnic bias. We are way ahead of that thats why we have the most peaceful learned and flourished regions in d whole nigeria. How many yorubas will u find in d east or north? But this ipob Igbos will go everywhere because there yansh cant stay in their homeland(the one they are clamouring for to secede) and yet they destructively criticize and rain insults the moment they feel they want to subdued... This same mentality that cost them over a million lives in the sacrificial biafra war. When will u guys wake up and develop ur lands and let ur ppl stay there and realize no one is trying to subdue u but ur deluded minds. They call yorubas cowards. All because we choose to outsmart ppl with senses rather sacrifice our lives by fighting. Look at the political sphere and tell me who controls it more. (awolowo, obj, tinubu) yorubas... What an igbo would try to accomplish by gra gra.. A yoruba accomplishes faster by applying wisdom and diplomacy.. I can bet it that if it were yoruba that wanted to secede, we would have done it a long time ago without a single blood shed.. Wake up igbos.... Wake up.. Hian

You are wrong.

They didn't teach you in elementary school or they don't teach social studies in Nigeria?


This is the problem with your problem, you know nothing about your own country because and your own history, instead of feeding you positive history about your tribe and the fact that Nigeria's 1st president was Igbo, they substituted that positive history and sense of pride with hate and bitterness.


Igbo people have occupied every leadership office in Nigeria.

We've had Igbo president

We've had Igbo head of state

We've had Igbo vice president, Igbo military administrators, governors, ambassadors, and so on...



Get some education instead of ignorance and hate..

babajay69:

When Jonathan was appointing SS you talk? Abeg hold your peace.

psucc:
When his namesake in the Bible history became the prime minister in Egypt, he did not use his office to take a pound of flesh of his brothers for the evil they did to him. Rather he uses his office to save lives and wrestled them out of the grip of hunger and starvation.

But in the case of the present Joe, his brethren can wail and die provide he keeps office.

What a contrast!!!

steppin:

Story! Tell that to your people who fought side by side with the northerners. You guys are even more afraid to be alone more than the north.
Keep living in denial. If we're not important to Nigeria, the rest of the country would have let us go.

RichYoungNigga:


Mention the Igbo president

woodcook:


You are not I understand that the issues at hand encompass other smaller issues which need to be highlighted as well. Your assertions are not far from the truth. The speed at which they took up arm is an indication that they were never disarmed in the first place or that there are other external interest waiting to arm them as soon as possible - oil bunkering and smuggling seem to pay the external forces better than buying at official prices.

I would disagree that the last confab report was a total waste, I still believe that there are value items from that reports that should be implemented and I also believe that the best way to have sorted out this issue was to continue with the payment until we get a permanent solution. From the look of things FGN is the one loosing out because this guys will always have a ready market for the oil which the government was supposedly to be selling.

You are right that the argument has been about GEJ and PMB but I personally think that is where we the masses have been getting it wrong. Just imagine if you can reduce every GEJ vs PMB argument to FGN vs the masses? This line of argument will make the masses start thinking of issues that affects them and how best to go about it rather than dwelling on PMB and GEJ failures/achievement. The other bitter truth is whatever happens from here forward has little or no effect on the lives of GEJ/PMB and their families. Which is why I think we should strive to wove our argument and position around the FGN vs the masses. Leaving it at GEJ/PMB level of argument makes nonsense of the plight of the common man on the street.

Olabestonic001:


You are wrong with with your assertion sir. Rather, I believe Igbos are too bias to be sane people. For GOD sake, it was an election, why take it personal?
To your vain assertion about GOD and Satan's electoral contest; you're very wrong. GOD ain't a democrat but a Monarch. So, HE ain't gonna need your votes. More so, after 8yrs, any damned person who become president gonna vacate seat.
I firmly believed Igbo's are too backward in democratic settings and needs recolonization. Yoruba's knows when to play politics and when to be a good team player, while it must always be those bigoted Igbo's way or they resort to cheap Blackmail. Study your history well, Yoruba's thrumps any other tribes in politics and civility.

Onye ye nti ya nuru. GEJ that lost the election has moved on, but my Igbo brothers are still crying, even when the funeral is over.

No. He's a lost cause.

The most important thing and political requirement demand made by Igbo people in the past 30 years is 2nd NB, the people you followed and the PDP for 16 years gave you nothing but worthless and broken promises, even the GEJ you still call your hero vowed to go into exile if that bridge was not built by him, well, he didn't build it and he's still not in exile and you people even love him more than ever.


Fast forward to your post above, the man you just trashed finally put money on the table and also inserted the bridge into his budget to make sure it gets built and you still want the sensible, sane and rational world to believe that he doesn't give a damn about you, but the people who lied to you, the people who sold you lemon promises for your votes and refused to build the bridge really care and are worthy enough to be praised and be your hero.?


You see why it's also very hard to take you people seriously or conclude that your ways are not hateful, meanspirited and misguided?

I HATE THIS JOE WITH PASSION

aressssa:




This is more than GEJ, this is eternal hate, GEJ or no GEJ.


That was the only basket they put their eggs in and that and that basket is no more so where else do you want them to go?


They don't have any credible leader at home to look up to and Okorocha doesn't matter because he's with the Hausa and Yoruba party.


Where is the sense and wisdom in haling, supporting and championing a man that his own people have openly lambasted and discredited for poor performance?

They have moved on so why are ibo people still crying and moaning all over the place? Because they have nothing worthy at home to be proud of or look up to.

Mcowubaba:

Big lie at bolded.... So since 30 years the main Igbo nation problem is 2nd Niger bridge...

Not seaports, international airports, rehabilitation of Federal roads, controlling Erosion, justice and equitable distribution of resources, rehabilitation nd creation of Federal facilities, schools, hospitals, abandoned after the war, favorable economic policies, national integration into the mainstream of Nigerian's political, economic and governmental institutions....
I don't understand why u lots keep mentioning GEJ nd PDP, I strongly dislike PDP, I personally created a topic on why I won't vote GEJ in 2015 (check my profile)
PDP ruined my State of origin, so don't tell me about hero worshipping any damn party or political class unlike YOU......
All I'm saying is that APC nd Buhari promised us CHANGE, but it has turned out to be marginalization, bigotry, pettiness, poverty nd bad governance WORST than even PDP's own.....
2nd Niger bridge was not initiated by Ur president, it was started by GEJ, Buhari putting it in the budget was only the normal thing to do, as he also included other projects started by GEJ like railways etc(and don't forget it's not only Buhari that is responsible for the budgeting process, if Buhari had his way, who knows, he may have cancelled it)
Buhari doesn't care about the feelings of majority of the Igbo tribe SIMPLE.....
Despite the outcry in his lopsided appointments, he doesn't give a damn, nd he is ready to continue to segregate...
U guys keep saying we are hateful nd misguided, shebi
And the rest of Nigeria are loving darlings and kind

APC and Buhari has not been taking us serious, so it's no big deal.... We too are simply not taking them serious too .. A tit for a tat It's basic law..... U no send Igbos, Igbos don't also send u..... (Don't also forget the wanna exit the Country)
Or did u guys think u could just shut down a successful large major ethnic group in Nigeria ....
U thought we're in the minority, even minorities are speaking up (ND.Avengers nd co) 97% 5%
Proudly 5%......

Mcowubaba:

APC made herself a Yoruba and Hausa party don't forget....
The made the party anti-Igbo
If the had their way the could have presented a Muslim president nd vice....
Same way APGA is viewed as an Igbo party, APC is viewed as a Muslim party...
Ogbeni be objective for once in ur APC controlled life
In APC allocation of their party leadership how many went to Igbos, even in their proposed National Assembly nd house leadership how many were zones to the South East , if no be Saraki nd Dogara wey rebel, Igbos could have been relegated in the Red nd green Chambers as just floor members.....

Earth2Metahuman:
Joe has spoken well

The part I find funny is, when they dish out their hate, they expect love and a pat on the back in return.
If someone dishes out little dose of the hate they spread everyday, they start crying and acting like victims.

They made me found it difficult to criticize buhari constructively when he did something wrong cos they already bastardized everything with hate.

superman:
now you tell me who won

go through the whole thread u must come to an agreement that

1 Igbos are special tribe that shall never considered Africans

2 The yoruba and co hate us!

by the way this is not rocket science

the evidence speak for itself

upon all the hate the proclaimed when was the last time Igbo went on unwarranted killing of the hausa and yorubas

when was the last time the so called criminals in the name of Igbo leaders asked people to go and jump in lagoon

The truth is Igbokwe is writing junk for black people

Only the Igbo can set the black race free for good of your children next generation

It is written all over the wall !

A Yoruba Lady i met here at some point here in UK told me yoruba people are backward; that i just dnt understand these people

Abagworo:


It is Igbos only that labelled APC Muslim party even before it was formed but common sense proves its secular. Every strategy employed by most Igbos is so self destructive and suicidal that I often wonder if Ndigbo are really zombie.

If indeed it's about Fulani hegemony why are Igbos the ones supporting Dasuki direct descendant of Uthman Danfodio involved in destruction of our armed forces or proudly Fulani man Bukola Saraki who so much love Fulani that despite seeming Yoruba in everything they still claim Fulani?

I know it's all about power and Igbos are being sheepishly misled into self destruction by those who looted our economy dry because Buhari wants to end corruption in Nigeria. The end of it all if unchecked will be a polgrom worse than ever recorded in Africa.

CHAMELEONIC PEOPLE:
Tinubu in 2003, 2007 and 2011:
Yorubas are for restructuring of this country. All Yoruba should join ACN which is right party for true federalism. There is no way Lagos which generates more than ten times what Kano does should get same amount from the federal govt as Kano.
Tinubu through Osibanjo in 2016:
We are against restructuring the country. Restructuring won't solve our problems. Even if Lagos receives more money, they won't still use it well. If Lagos is allowed to keep all that the state generates, they won't be matured enough to use it well.

RichYoungNigga:
Igbo ethnic bigotry ??
1. The igbos haven't produced any president for the country of Nigeria.
2. They are the most hard working tribe on earth and the tribe with the highest number of rich people in Africa

Why should we hate other tribes ??
What tribes should we hate ?? The Yorubas ?? Well, we bought all their properties in Lagos and Yoruba land.

Should we hate on the Hausa tribe that has produced more than 4 of the Nigerian presidents and still the poorest tribe in Nigeria ??

We Ibos don't have the time to hate on people, we only have the time to make money and buy all their lands and properties
