franchasng: You're not serious. You don't know what you're saying. Yorubas apart from Egun accounts for more than 50% of Lagos population. Egun people alone are up to 20%. Stop saying nonsense. When Igbo's leave Lagos, they close business that's why market usually scanty. Don't translate market to settlements and community. Even Igbo's in akure no reach 10k you're talking of Ore. Ondo town is more populated than ore, dem no get up to 10k Go Check Igbo markets in Ondo town and see. Do you even know what thousands means? Use Catholics churches to judge Use all the churches to judge Use markets to judge Use schools to judge And reply me. You're visible in trade doesn't mean you're populous. What I'm I saying self. In 6 streets simultaneously in Ondo you might not see any Igbo man living there. They only live close to where their business dey. No state in South west has more than 50k Igbos (Apart from Lagos) Don't misrepresent hundreds as thousands 3 Likes |

PROUDIGBO: Smugly? No. Yes if you equally admit that those who took this risk and made personal sacrifices include political leaders from the SW, as well as some SE leaders. My point is that without the sacrifice of those people, the hatred Igbo voters showed towards PMB would have stopped his victory. I am quite clear that the President is just being sincere that he feels more morally obligated to acknowledge and reward those who neutralized the hatred most Igbo voters showed to him. You are likely to do same if you have a similar experience PMB had. He chose Igbo VPs twice and he was rejected not by any account but hatred and bigotry against him. That is why I need to make it clear. There is nothing unusual with his admission but regardless, he fulfilled the constitutional provision that every state including states of the SE get same number of ministers as states where he got almost 100% votes. That is definitely a weak point for democracy but necessary for our national unity. In conclusion, I don't have problem with having a different political opinion and in fact, I support it but I feel very uncomfortable and cringe when I see the level of hatred and bigotry most Igbos show against PMB. I kept wondering what he took from their stall and forgot to pay for. |

Vaughanlanrewaj:Igbos dislike for Buhari started from his role at Dordan Barracks Lagos in 1966, the night to the day Aguiyi Ironsi was killed. Another reason majority of Igbos don't like Buhari is because Buhari is a fanatic Muslim who enjoys violence against Christians and elevates Fulani Muslims above others. He played a very bad role and has never apologized just as Awolowo did in 1966 and refused to apologize till he died which also forms part of the reason Igbos aren't politically happy with Yorubas since 1968. 1 Like |

franchasng: So Igbos in 2019 hate Buhari for 'offence' committed against Igbos in 1967 and they hate Yorubas for 'offence' the Sage, Pa Awo, committed in 1968? So what will other regions Igbo- officers murdered their leaders in their prime and set their regions back now do? See sir, there is an adage that you can't teach anyone to be evil if Evil is not already in the person's heart. The evil in the heart of some of these young Igbos have nothing to do with 1967 sir. They see hatred and bigotry around them so it fits perfectly with their mental state and upbringing. That is why there is a lot of difference in the mentality of my Igbo brothers and sisters born and raised in Lagos and those raised in the SE. Those raised in Lagos or SW and well integrated have a better understanding of how to relate peacefully and respectfully. In fact when they call you from overseas, after many years, their Yoruba is still fluent and they are not filled with hatred and bigotry against other people not from their tribe. Where ever there's strife and envy, God is not there. The unbridled hatred some Igbo have for others is enough to repel blessings of God. I don't know how they sleep at night with so much hate and bigotry in most of them. If they don't heal,it is their fault not even the fault of our forebears because they have done their own and gone to rest. The new generation must heal itself. |

CobraAnambra:Ode, they just love to twist history to sound foolishly sophisticated. Awolowo contested in 1960s and failed, Nnamdi Azikiwe won him. Awolowo contested again in 1979 and failed. Shehu Shagari and Alex Ekwueme won him. Awolowo contested again in 1983 and failed. Shehu Shagari and Ekwueme won him again. It was this time that your Buhari carried out coup and removed Shagari/Ekwueme. When we talk, you kids should listen. Yoruba votes don't count. The only role Yorubas played in electing Buhari is in Tinubu's mobilization of other regional politicians against Goodluck, that's all. Not that Yoruba vote made Buhari President, be guided. 1 Like |

Vaughanlanrewaj:Not just the offense of 1960s, read well. Buhari have been violent campaigner and mobilizer of irate Northern Almajiri against other politicians that win him, Igbos hate terrorist, Buhari is a terrorist. OBJ fought in that war but Igbos love OBJ. IBB fought in that war but Igbos love IBB. Atiku is a Fulani but Igbos love Atiku. Yaradua is a Fulani but Igbos love Yaradua. Yorubas didn't stop at what Awolowo did against Igbos in 1968, they continued to collabo with the North against Igbos politically even after that and always celebrated any evil again Igbos. This is the problem. 1 Like |

franchasng:The first-ever collabo was between North and East yet I have not seen others hate Igbos. Obasanjo was accepted because he worked against Pa Awo. IBB was married to an Igbo and annulled the election of a Yoruba man sir. Now you get why most Igbos love those 2; because they hurt the political interests of Yoruba? |

franchasng:Go and ask your elders who are good students of history to tell you how Awo never lost the Presidential election to Shagari in '79, where there wasn't a clear winner. A re-election was supposed to be announced but the military government through a window shopping court judgement declared Shagari the winner.

PROUDIGBO: Don't mind them. Buhari actually mentioned the other percentage. He said, "those who gave me 5% of their votes should not expect to be treated equally with those who gave me 97% of their votes." You know, not all brains can compute. From their kindergarten analysis, they should've seen that 97% and 5% is already more than 100%, that would've informed them that they're on the wrong. Some regions gave Buhari 97% of votes, whereas SE only gave him 5%. But are those regions he has been given preference any better than the SE? He was even able to get that 5% because of Okoroawusa. Till tomorrow, we won't give him upto 1% again, we're not beggars. Anyone that says SE voting power is 5% is simply making jest of Buhari, because 5% plus 97% is more than 100. 2 Likes 1 Share |

PrudencyFeats:Igbos don't hate muslims but we despise the violence usually associated with most northern muslims. The ppl who lynched the female pastor in 2016 did not come from Sambisa forest, they're d so called tolerant muslims.Same with those who killed Christians when Buhari lost in 2011. There are significant muslims communities in every big town in Igbo land but you will never hear of religious crises or killings. 2 Likes 1 Share |

The entire population of Igbo in Lagos is not up to 3% with other SS indigine many count as Igbos it increases to 8%. Over 82% remain predominantly Yoruba so where did foolish igbo get you statistics to claim igbo amount to 25% of Lagos population ? Do igbo in Ogun Osun Oyo Kwara Kogi even amount to less than 1% of the state entire population that your deluded igbo father no claim igbo is over 25% in every state in Nigeria ? franchasng: |

Sonyboom:20% - 30% of total Lagos population is Igbo, you can go and hug live transformer for all I care you know After Yorubas, Igbos are the second highest in population in Lagos. The Stat is there for all to see, you cannot change it if you decide to commit suicide because of the truth. Another southwest state Igbos have a large population is Ogun, Ondo, Oyo. Go to any state in Nigeria, you will find a large population of Igbos there, you know the truth of course, taking sniper will not change the truth. So be calming down. Below are the non-igbo states of Nigeria where Igbos are among the dominant non-indigenous tribe living there with over 50,000 population: Lagos (20% - 30% of total Lagos population) Kano (over 100,000 Igbos) Abuja (3% to 9% of total Abuja population) Rivers (plus indigenous Igbos in this state) Delta (plus indigenous Igbos in this state) Kaduna (over 100,000 population) Ogun (over 200,000 population) Edo (over 200,000 population) Sokoto (over 100,000 population) Ondo (over 150,000 population) Oyo (over 30,000 population) Akwa-Ibom (over 200,000 population) Cross River Bayelsa Plateau Benue (plus indigenous Igbos in this state) |
