My brother Chyz did well. It just warms the heart. Onlytruth, Chyz and my Igbo brethren. I salute you!

@ EzeUche_

The ultimate truth is that Igboland needs some form of self cleansing- a cultural revolution of sorts.
We have been represented for too long by thieves and selfish people.

There are too many thieves trying to destroy our destiny as a great people, that is why God is raising others like Akunyili to step in.

Chris Ngige is a man I used to admire, until he joined ACN and refused to come out of it. As far as I know, he is finished politically in Anambra state. 

Sullivan Chime was actually talking to ACN before sanity returned to his head, making me wonder whether these leaders ever consider the group interest of Ndigbo in their actions.    That is why I am not sympathizing with his political plight in the hands of the Nwobodos and Nnamanis.

Any Igbo politician who cannot see that APGA is our only hope to relevance in Nigeria is a selfish m0derfcker.

I can't wait for Okorocha to beat Ohakim in Imo guber polls.

If any Igbo don't like something about APGA, he/she should come and fix it.

Wow. This thread got even uglier.


Smh @ the baboon style chest beating on both sides. So provincial.




This senate president position isn't even important.

My neutral brother. You know I respect your words. And the baboon style chest beating is what the Yorubas and Igbos do best. While the Hausa laugh at us.

At the end of the day, I'm a pretty backwards, provincial man from the bush. And damn proud of it.

What would Ojukwu say if he were to see this post?

fstranger come on now. I am tired of the tribalism right now. Had a good discussion with my Yoruba friends, so do not bring down the Yoruba name. And I am a Niger Deltan BTW.

Akunyili can blow hot grammar for all i care. This very fight she will lose. Even those she has won has always been with the West's help. At NAFDAC, Our Media gave her the required public enlightenment when her igbo gang up her because she dont want them to produce Fake Products. Madam you will lose this. We have a special way of TROUNCING the East. Mu he he

Nothing wrong with being from the "bush." I don't advocate blind cosmopolitanism just for the sake of cosmopolitanism. Different groups have unique cultures that they should try to preserve and not see muddled into one big boring generic "Nigerian" mix. That said, ethnic chauvinism to the point where you start comparing which group would slaughter which group or crush and maim the other group in the event of a dispute is not really natural or normal, in my opinion.

On the issue of Lagos which generated so much heat on this thread, I think Lagos should always have a southwestern/Yoruba orientation culturally and politically, for historical reasons. Likewise for Kano with respect to the north, or Calabar or other places. These places are historically centers of  distinct cultures. Not like Abuja which was non-existent to the Gwari before oil money built it. Lagos has a history of its own independent of Nigeria and in that history it is a Yoruba city.






By the way, I don't really see myself as a Niger Deltan, though I sympathize with some of their causes. I can't really wear that label when I and my people are not going through what they are experiencing (the exploitation, pollution, etc.).

Eh, given our collective lack of faith in this project called Nigeria, such calculations and considerations seem quite appropriate. Anybody in fact who is not prepared for this possibility is only fooling themselves.

With that said, is this a high probability event? Imo, no. But still necessary to prepare for it. Including making sure that for certain territories, ownership is quite clear.

Nah. Go further North.


If alj harem can be Igbo, I officially declare myself 1/16th Fulani starting today.

@PHYSICSMD What you dont know dont talk about. When was Lagos independent of Nigeria? I come from the First town in Nigeria to have INDEPENDENCE which we got before anybody in the country, we have our own Anthem and Government as at the 18th century. Lori oke ati Petele, ibe lagbe bi mi o, Ibe lagba to mi dagba o. Ile ominira. Emi omayo lori olumo emi osogo yii lokan mi wipe ilu olokiki o lawa EGBA n gbe.

Such calculations are not appropriate really. I think the only people who think Lagos is not a Yoruba city are self-deluding nairalanders.

I know a lot of Edos from Lagos and while they consider themselves Lagosians, they don't pretend its not a Yoruba city. If you go to a place and 7 out of every 9 people you see/meet are from one ethnicity, how are you going to claim it is not a city of that ethnic group. Cosmopolitanism has its limits.

^^^^^^

Western region wanted to secede from Nigeria over the issue of Lagos being considered "apart" from or separate from the rest of the West and the only reason Lagos ever was considered as separate was colonial (British) pressure.

If Calabar had remained the capital of Nigeria some people would be making the ridiculous claim that that city belongs to no one as well.

@PhysicsMHD: Interesting reference you posted.

I disagree with your conclusion though; eternal vigilance is still necessary in Nigeria, especially w.r.t. Lagos.

Also Lagos is part of it, but not all of it. To be quite honest. . . I suspect even in a post-Nigeria setting, we will still be enemies. Too much enmity and bad blood exists. In that post-Nigeria setting, even me, as mild-mannered as I might appear to be. . . well, let me leave it at that.
