****Renaming Of Abakaliki Street In Anambra, A Slap On Every Ebonyian***

Since the creation of Ebonyi state in 1996, Ebonyians have always been marginalised and hated. You may ask by who?

It is not by the Yorubas, Fulanis or Hausa!! Truth must be told!! It is still the same Igbos like us that always see Ebonyians as illiterates.

It is very heartbreaking, devastating and shocking that an Anambra man who ought to see an Ebonyian as his brother, will turn around to call him 'Onye Wawa'.

The day I got the shock of my life was the day my friend who is from Enugu told me not to tell people that I am from Ebonyi state. I asked him, 'Why' ? He told me that they see Ebonyians as fools and illiterates. He equally told me that I do not behave like someone who is from Ebonyi state, so I should deny the state of my origin, just to please him and his people. I ignored him because in life, I have learnt not displease myself to please another person! Secondly, am proud to be an Ebonyian and can't deny it for any reason!

Yes!

Why should I not be given a job just because am from Ebonyi? Not because am not qualified!

The questions remain, why should the Igbos who want a sovereign state of Biafra still hate one another?

Why should we Igbos be talking about Biafra when we don't love ourselves?

Why should we Igbos be talking about Marginalisation, when we marginalise ourselves?

The renaming of a street in Anambra by Governor Willie Obiano shows that there is no love, unity, peace among the Igbos. It is an act every Igbo man should condemn just like Umahi did. It is a slap on our face.

We know you guys hate us but that does not mean you should treat us the way and manner you like.

Ebonyians are wiser now, we are educated, we are hard working, we are farmers and cannot  be intimidated any longer by those we see as our brothers and sisters.

Until we Igbos, eschew the hatred among ourselves and see ourselves as brothers and sisters despite our state of origin, we cannot thrive or get what we want!!

Cyynthialove has said this before and there is need for repetition. .. . .......

Rivalry, agreement and disagreement are inevitable because those things are characteristics of human beings . Once you remove the aforementioned, then humanity seize to exist.
Even here in Yoruba land, the discrimination is stronger than we thought. Ife and Modakeke no dey take eyes see each other, Ife don't marry Modakeke and vice versa.
What of Ogun ?, some of my people are afraid to marry Ogun man due to juju. As for Ijebu, we see them as lesser yorubas due to their weird life style. We have no regards for them.
I don't want to discuss much about Christian Yorubas vs Muslim Yorubas because even kids can read the handwriting on the wall concerning such matter.
Is it about how Muslim yorubas dominated the civil service without considering Christian Yorubas in the civil service in Lagos until Ambode came on ?
Or is it about how Muslims are building their places of worship in the whole Local govt headquarters in Lagos without Christians having where they clap their hands ?
Or is it about how Tinibu wanted to plant another Muslim governor in Lag govt house until public outcry , hence the nomination of Ambode ?
Should I discuss about Osun hijab crisis ?



Meanwhile, the Op is not who you think he's and he's still the same person that cemented fourth on this thread.

Abakaliki people are not real igbos. The move by Obiano is being applauded statewide. Infact, when you go to the said road today, most business establishments there have already effected the name change on the signages located on their buildings.

OP, from your post, it is evident that it is not only Anambra indigenes who can't stand the sight and behaviour of abakaliki people. Even wawa people of enugu state whom Anambra indigenes see as lower beings, in turn see abakaliki people as lower than them! That is enough to tell abakaliki people that something is wrong with them and they have to reappraise themselves and measure up.

Nobody hates Ndi Ebonyi. The shameful rants and actions of few m0rons in Igboland SHOULD NEVER BE INTERPRETED TO MEAN THAT THE GREAT IGBO NATION HATES EBONYI WHOSE PEOPLE AND LAND ARE BLESSED BY GOD. These mor0n are in every tribe. The Yorubas view the Ekitis, Ijebus, Ilajes and Egun in a very bad light, see them as inferior and have low regards for them. The Hausas consider some hausa states as Hausa Banza which means bastard hausa states even the Fulanis consider some of themselves as inferior and servants.

I wonder what Wawa and Ebonyi ibohs did to deserve such hatred from their fellow ibohs.

The Osu caste system is on another level entirely. cry

Dude, your brothers have been so troublesome and are pushing me to dislike some people for no just cause.

Regardless, despite the insults and the hate they think I bear for your people, I prevented a mob from carrying out jungle justice on two "brothers" of yours who, ironically, stole from an Aboki.

Decent looking crooks. One wore a very neatly trimmed suit and the other a caftan.

This happened right in front of LG office after UBA along bank road. They stole atm cards and were making transfers and purchases when they were caught. I stood in and prevented the mob from doing as much damage as they would have loved to do to them! I ensured they were taken into the premises of the bank after which the gate was locked.. Insisted the police handled the issue since it was purely a criminal incident.

Now, if I were who your brothers call me here, I wouldn't have lifted a finger to stop the mob from doing what they would have loved to do (even though I couldn't stop a few slaps given them from time to time as they sat on the ground).

If I'm lying, may I work like an elephant and eat like an ant!

Stereotypes and discrimination are not good.

However, it behoves people from Ebonyi to strive to maintain the Igbo identity.

If you continue to act in manners out of sync with the general Igbo behavioural isms, cultural outlook and entire worldview, then the likely consequence will be loathsomeness and being held in low esteem.

I have been traversing through Ebonyi for the past couple of months. I daresay that the quantum of urbanisation of Abakiliki is impressive.

Ebonyi people need to step up their game, it must be said.

Anambra people are known for their commercial/business acumen.

Imo people are known for being trailblazers in education and creative arts.

There is nothing wrong with learning from the best. Getting emotional about it is trying to beg the question.

There is a way Igbo people are expected to conduct themselves. Behaviours and attitudes regressing from the mean will eventuate ridicule and disdain.

In the final analysis, Ebonyi people should do well to prove themselves and earn the regard/respect of their kins, the adoption of victimhood and shirking responsibility will not ace it.
