I would not have NPP do anything. What I would have YOU do is produce one clipping where any Yoruba called Eboes betrayers or even criticised Eboes for that.We had no problem with it because we do not know you before and do not believe you owe us anything. So why all this nonsense now when you are in opposition? We did not start any radio Our or any of this chilldish nonsense you are doing. We did not join NPP or NON. We stuck with the consequences of our electoral choices. That is real bravery and character

pazienza:


Betrayal? How? Did NPP adopt Shagari as their presidential candidate?

Was NPP coalesced into NPN. Did NPN ever win any presidential election in Igboland( Imo and Anambra) between 1979-83?

How can you compare the NPP scenario with what happened in 2014, when Yorubas coalesced ACN into ANPP and CPC with the sole aim of wrestling power out of a Southern President. Simply because they are angry that he was giving a level play ground for Ndiigbo and not playing the 95%-5% game of marginalization?

No. You are simply comparing apples with oranges here.

[s]Loads of gibberish. Truth is u r not a wise person. U keep mentioning Igbos come to ur land for sustainance n am forced to ask u how? Is it the the fact that they set up businesses n r doing fine dat is ur problem? Didn't they pay for rent? Or r d shops free? Healthcare,house rent,transport n all is being paid for so wtf? Even tax to the government. why don't u go n compete if u think u v d capacity after all d market is big enough for all. Moreover are there no yorubas in the east as tailors n doing other businesses? R dey not thriving? So what is ur problem? Plz dz line of argument is actually stale oga afterall dey left before but ur forebears went to them n insist on them staying to d extent of fighting a war. You v plenty of your people benefiting from the Igbos doing business in ur land. I know some landlords who would v barely been able to feed if not for d houses dey inherited from their parents. So plz say something else. Igbos owe u nothing[/s]

The fact is that the Igbo's are too uncultured, unpragmatic, emotionally unstable, cry babies and politically unsophisticated to be in any kind of alliance with the Yoruba's.


They lack hindsight and foresight, and are experts in blame shifting. They hate taking responsibility for their actions and inactions and would rather blame others for their inadequacies and limitations. They also aren't strategic thinkers and lack comprehension of the dynamism of Nigeria political system.

kingzizzy:


And of what is point of all this if Igbos are saying they dont want to be in the same country as you?

aribisala0:
Nothing to do with us Eboes can go back to Jerusalem for all we care. Just don't create violence in our neighbourhood. We cannot ignore irresponsible actions that would have consequences for our peace and security .
We have not forgotten the attack on Ore or Laos. Any future
Eboe nation MUST be demilitarised and will not be allowed to have any military forces

kingzizzy:


The attack in Ore? Igbos had already packed up, returned to the East, declared their own country and left Nigeria in peace. You Nigerians would not leave us alone and came down to the East to fight. When we retaliated, you people started shouting Ore!

It was the Nigerian/Biafran war and Ore was in Nigeria. You guys are lucky we didnt attack Ibadan

mightyhaze:
It's simple,..yorubas shd give igbos unalloyed support and solidarity for igbos to rule,dis will earn dem igbo trust. Because the problem here is yoruba betrayal over the years from 1966 to date!

Igbos have actually forgiven yoruba tracheary,by supporting obj to rule for atleast 8yrs under civil rule,..and have allowed yorubas and hausas to rule in peace during military era. Igbos too hav supported hausa fulani candidates atleast twice under civil rule viz shagari and yaradua rules.

The only logical/reasonable thing 2 do now is to gv igbos unwavering support 2 rule. By so doing,nigeria will not only be doin the only just thing,but will be giving itself an opportunity 2 be revamped and set on d road 2 greatness,since the great igbo tribe has been tested and found 2 possess that touch of midas!


Finally igbos don't hate yorubas,..they just not ready 2 be stabbed at the back again and again,..so they being quite cautious! The onus is on yorubas 2 redeem their image b4 the igbo race they have so actively schemed against for atleast 51years!

papikay247:
, before any betrayal or backstabbing, there must be an ALLIANCE. Could you please tell us anytime the Igbos have had an alliance with the Yorubas that the Yorubas betrayed them in the history of this country?

pazienza:


Akintola teamed up with Balewa/ Saraduna in a classical re enactment of Alimi/Afonja season 2 to jail Awolowo who himself was found to be corrupt and as such made himself an easy prey for Akintola( who sought to Usurp him as the Yoruba leader) and Saraduna( Who saw Akintola folly as a chance to get a foothold on Yorubaland, politically, in typical Alimi style).

Why is it hard for Yorubas to admit the above, instead of bringing an unconcerned Zik and Igbo elites into your mess?

What sort of people are you lots?

pazienza:
Where were
Eboe leaders in 2011 when the likes of Wole
Soyinka and Tunde Bakare were fighting for the so
called SOUTHERN President?

Never knew that Bakare and Soyinka are now Akunyili who called the bluff of Turai kitchen cabinet. Keep deceiving yourselves.

AshiwajuFoward:
Yigbos are such shameless hypocrites. Smh. Zik formed alliance with Abokis because he was 'left without a choice'. But Akintola (and by extension Yorubas) supposedly (according to them) 'broke' their phantom 'Southern Solidarity' by going into an alliance with the same Abokis after Zik's Aboki collabo broke down. That's typical yigbo sick reasoning in full glare. Smh.

In one breathe, Akintola was a renegade, a non Yoruba leader, and in another, he becomes a Wise Yoruba leader whose union with Arewa was smart and aimed at saving Yorubas from phantom Igbo domination. You lots have to atleast try and keep your story straight.

aribisala0:
The bottom line is Yorubas are indifferent to Eboes, they are irrelevant to us. The only reason this rubbish carries on is Eboes hatred and impotent desire to get even for perceived wrongs. So we have to constantly react to their pesky attempts to rewrite history otherwise they are inconsequential to us as a people and their land.If we agreed that everyone should stay in their place Yorubas have no problem the entire Eboeland is smaller than Oyo state

ikeadewole:

Igboland smaller than Oyo state...After all of awolowo free education..
