You're missing the point

Nigeriabiafra82:
All this buhari paid miscreant
Can you kindly come and say it in public here

Penguin2:


So what's your point?

What happened to Ebonyi North and Ebonyi Central that you only had to make a case for Ebonyi South?

SuperBold:
The inferior ones should be from Abia and Imo

No its Ondo and Ogun

When ndigbo are discussing issues, 2 digit iq pointers like you that lack the capacity to see analyze things from multiple angles are not invited to the table. You think being a shallow, one-track minded, two-dimensional thinker equals patriotism

Kebbiprince:
All you igbos are still inferior to the great fulani, Ebonyi south my left yansh

Igboid:
When I learnt that Akanu Ibiam returned his British knighthood back to the Queen of England in protest against British involvement in the Biafran genocide, my respect for him increased in ten folds.

Such a honourable man.

Monogamy:


Don't you think this your epistle revalidate the inferiority you are talking about?

ThumbzTNA:
Before reading. Note this:
1. Ebonyi South is made up of 5 LGAs Afikpo North, Afikpo South (Edda), Ivo, Ohaozara and Onicha
2. Ebonyi South was carved out of old Abia State.



If you want to compare Ebonyi state, compare Ebonyi state to the states created at the same time. The likes of Ekiti, Bayelsa, Nasarawa, Zamfara and Gombe. None of them are doing better Ebonyi. When it comes to positive statistics, like Education, infrastructure development, voter turnout, etc Ebonyi is doing well amongst it's peers.



Ebonyi South

Ebonyi south is and has always been a major player in the politics of Ndigbo since the precolonial days of the Aro Confederacy and their domination of Igbo hinterlands in the 18 century, which Afikpo was a bonafide member of.

During the times just after Independence, Ebonyi South produced the Governor of Eastern Nigeria and Ojukwu's predecessor, she also produced the pioneer first lady of Nigeria and wife of Nnamdi Azikiwe, Uche Azikiwe. The first black Minister of Education of Nigeria Aja Nwachukwu was from Ebonyi South


Ebonyi South's influence is seen also During the brief time Ebonyi South were part of Abia, they produced the first Governor of Abia state, Dr Ogbonnaya Onu. Also the name ABiA was coined using the first letters of the most influential towns in the state then to form an acronym. The last A in ABI'A' stands for Afikpo (which is now currently)


Since the return of democracy, Ebonyi South has produced both the Senate president and secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), both in the person of Anyim Pius Anyim. The immediate past leader of Ohaenaze in the person of Gary Enwo-Igariwey and also Dave Umahi are also from Ebonyi South. Ogbonnaya Onu. The first woman to have her signature on the naira Priscilla Ekwere-Eleje is from Abonyi South

So when you hear things like Ebonyi people don't like going to school and later you realize that the first Minister of Education in Nigeria was from Ebonyi state, the contradiction becomes so obvious.

Ebonyi South has produced several notable entertainers like Tekno, Patoranking, Sinach, Andy Chukwu, Angela Okorie, just to name a few.

As far as River ports go, if River ports were to be built in Igboland today, the river flowing through Afikpo has the strighest tributary into the Atlantic among all the SS states.


The people of Ebonyi South are fantastic administrators no doubt and they have always found their way to the top of Igbo and Nigerian politics no matter which state you put them and every local government in the district have prominent names that can rival names from any other district in Alaigbo. Every LGA in the district has at least one higher institution


Afikpo North: Akanu Ibiam, Uche Azikiwe, Gary Enwo-Igariwey, Priscilla Ekwere-Eleje, John Ogbu, Catholic Bishop Micheal Nnachi, Late VC Otunta

Ohaozara: Ogbonnaya Onu, Dave Umahi, Aja Nwachukwu, Andy Chukwu


Ivo: Anyim Pius Anyim, Tekno, Angela Okorie


Onicha: Patoranking


Afikpo South: Sinach

ThumbzTNA:


Sure.
Akanu Ibiam was the person who started the Bible Society of Nigeria (BSN) and the Christian Medical Fellowship. The man was a born again.


Even though Ojukwu's first action as Governor of Eastern Nigeria was to eject Akanu Ibiam from Government House in Enugu and take over, Alanu Ibiam still played a major role during the fight. He used his Christian contacts in Europe and Canada to aid for Biafran victims of the war

Idiko1:



Mr. analyst, you come across as person with inferior mentality or suffering from mental insecurity. The first time I read from your post, it was about the creation of Etiti State and yet prominent Igbo sons and daughters who hailed from your imagined area of interest. It is unfortunate you have grown into aspect of Igboland with your silly and delusional stream of thought. No part of Igboland is regarded being inferior by any Igbo person. The instances of inferiority among the Ndigbo only exist in the minds of insure goons who have nothing good to offer except idiotic dreams. I do not like rain on your silly parade. However I had liked to plead with you to decease from posting craps for public consumption which you conjured with the frame of your idle mind. In addition, Aja Nwachukwu was not the first Black Minister of Education of Nigeria but Igbo man who become the minister of education of Nigeria. If you know your historical fact very well, you have realized that Chief Aja Nwachukwu was junior minister before the death of Adegoke Adelabu.

Idiko1:


You seemed to be played into silliness by your skewed figment of imagination. The era of government which Akanu Ibiam was an integral part ended on January 15, 1966. By the time the military personals were appointed the governors of the regions, the civilians governors were who were lucky to stay away from the custody of military boys were informed to go home. Nobody, not even Ojukwu, evicted any governor from the governor's house.

[s]I was waiting front goat like you since who downplays the yearnings of others because it's not their pain. It is a person wearing the shoe that knows where it hurts.


I have been lucky to have opportunities in this life. I have never for one day felt inferior to anybody because when it comes to requistites considered by the society for a person to be considered to have a high social status, I've been able to attain most. So it's not even about me


If I come out and point to the fact that igbos from certain parts look down on those from another part, and you as person have never been a victim of such, then you have no right to jump on the topic, most especially of you're coming to type rubbish.

I have had ignorant goats like you who don't even care to study the intricacies of other Igbo places in Igbo land except his hometown. ignorant igbo goats like you who have want to write a person off, regardless of how gifted, talented or intelligent a person is just because they aren't the 'right igbo'.

If not so, the why is it that an Nnewi man will always specify that he is different from an Onitsha man, even though they are both from Anambra. An Mbaise man will always specify that he is different from an Owerri or Orlu man, though they are both from Imo. An Enugu man will specify he isn't an Nsukka man. An Anioma man will always specify his uniqueness
but

when an Afikpo person tells you he is different from an Abakaliki man, and goes on to tell you the achievements of his people, you get fidgety. Why? It's because you dont want to believe that anything good can come out of the state. You need Ebonyi state to be backwards so you can use it to boost your ego. You need a state to look down on, so that no matter how badly you're doing, at least you're better than 'those Ebonyi people'.

But look here, I'm an Afikpo man. My people have been doing well for themselves since 16BC. In your Anambra state, most Local governments can stand toe to toe with my Afikpo.

Except the LGs in Anambra South (not even all) and some in Anambra central, the rest are just poor people who brag about the wealth of other people from the state. And the people from those unachieving local governments are the loudest.


I have said my own, I'm from Afikpo and Ebonyi South and I'm proud of the achievements of my people. if that make you uncomfortable, hug a transformer[/s].
