Why should that be your problem? You should worry more about the future of your ethnic group and unborn generation?

Everyday single day on NL politics sections, yorubas are always creating topics about the igbos..u hardly ever see igbos do that(who have that time anyways)

I don't get, do you yorubas do this out of envy or something because that is exactly the signal sent out.

Like why would I just be on own and start creating a topic about yoruba man or anybody, that definitely would be the height of joblessness and obvious envy

Ndigbo-obsessed but blind to the interest and future of your ethnic nationality? You spend more time vomiting verbiage on Ndigbo issue than issues that will determine the survival of your ethnic nationality.
What a waste of time, energy and intellect

First, the agitation for Biafra precedes " when power change hand" assertion. MASSOB has been in existence since the 90s.

Second, there is no correlation between the agitation of IPOB or what you term as "hate" with your so-called "but when power change hand"

Reason? The average Nigerian, regardless of his ethnicity, has never benefited from Nigerian Presidency. In a dysfunctional society like Nigeria, political position - elected or appointed - only benefits a select lucky few - the appointee , immediate family and hangers on. It does not benefit the grassroots. All we have from almost 6 decades of post-colonial self-esteem government unbridled misgovernance.If this were the case, northerners would have being enjoying the best economic condition and Ndigbo,the worst.

But the reverse is the case. All we've from almost 6 decades of post-colonial self-government is unbridled misgovernance

Only structural/institutional/systematic change benefits the large society and unborn future generations. That's why majority of Igbos represented by IPOB/Kanu are fighting for restructuring/fiscal federalism or outright separation. And that's the reason why Yorubas like Tinubu, Fashola and co. advocated for the same issues when they were in opposition.

So your hypothesis:

"When things were rosy, you were loving one Nigeria with the Hausas but when power change hand, na when you hate Nigeria"

is a false hypothesis. It is not supported by empirical evidence.

Talking about hate, how do you define hate?

Is calling for restructuring hate?
Is asking for a referendum to decide who wants to remain or quit Nigeria hate?
Is criticizing a civilian administration hate?
Is calling Nigeria a zoo hate?

What actually is your parameter of being a hater.

You need to be unambiguous with your words and concepts to make semblance of meaning.


MinorityOpinion:


When things were rosy, you were loving one Nigeria with the Hausas but when power change hand, na when you hate Nigeria. You should be ashamed!

Get your facts right Biafra has been in existence hundreds of years ago before the sham called Nigeria came into existence.

A very foolish response. we as Biafrans had existed even before our leader Kanu was brought forward to exempt us from this land filled with foes and suffering in the name of "one Nigeria".

This is response to Nnamdi Kanu topic. "It Is An Abomination For Anyone To Call Themself A Nigerian"

Its a pity Kanu doesn't know where the name Nigeria is coined from, he said its mean "Nigger-Area". This is shame, a question primary 6 student will answer beautifully.

Kanu said and I quote



This is not right coming out of a leader of group of outlaws that considered themselves intelligent, common sense should tell them the name is gotten from the Royal Niger Company, named after a region around the river which was generally referred to as the 'Royal Niger Company Territories'. This is simple to understand but maybe due to ignorance and hatred, IPOB failed to confirm before spreading the propaganda, this lowest I've seen IPOB trying to spoil the image of Nigeria, this one backfired though.

Now we know Nigeria is a name for Royal Niger Company but where does the name Biafra come from?

I saw a definition by a Biafran, it says - "It is a Nation. The word Biafra is coined from two IGBO WORDS 'bia' which means COME and 'fara' which means LIVE."

This definition is wrong, Biafra is foreign language, it has no meaning in igbo, it was name given by slave merchant from Portugal in year 1710 when igbos don't even have sense of identity.



Its very simple to say Biafra is a foreign name, named after Bight of Biafra named after a town in southern Portugal.

Between Nigeria and Biafra - Biafra should be the abominable name and should be condemned. It has no meaning in igbo or Nigeria.

Igbo giants don chase dis one tire for dream

There was never a time when things were rosy. And there was never a time nndigbo enjoyed Nigeria.
