Im Delta igbo, hate to admit.
Yall are brave but less tactical. If you bring it here, you're only gonna draw the military on us. No one wants that as they do kill innocent peeps sometimes. When you become tactical and stop killing police officers, we will accept you pipo no doubt
Who told u told people are not your brothers

U are either igbo or not igbo nothing like delta igbo ...

Are the soldiers not in anioma already ...I read how fulanis wiped off a village n kwale in early 2000s

Bros the only way to avoid army n police is to let fulanis have their ways

They would keep losing more ground ...oyo then ogun was almost sure for them before now

I watched one YouTube video where IPOB was asking Ortom to invite them officially to Benue for ESN to handle the situation, that the Fulani terrorists there would be a thing of the past. But you know na, everybody is shouting Igbo wants to dominate them. Even southern minorities. Maybe Benue too are scared of Igbo domination. Fulani na tourists while Igbo na dominants.

Not just igbos but IPOB

Really when they started I personally never took them serious ...even with the insult Jonathan presidency ignored them

But buhari came and started wanting to shut them up by all means ...I didn't even sense it

IPOB kept saying fulanis have agenda and igbos , south south and yorubas are foolish for not seeing it , the cried people like me ignored it , ..he said they have almost conquered benue

Like it or not IPOB made use reject ruga when it was offered ...if not most of us won't even read meaning to it ...... accepting ruga would have been the end
..

Fulanis never believed RUGA would be rejected that scattered their plans ...

The plan of I initiate ruga under buhari hand over to south cool off for like 50 years then demand emirs in those RUGA that would be populated by fulanis from Africa...then final onslaught



You're absolutely right!
That's why the mention of IPOB or Nnamdi Kanu gives them nightmares grin grin

Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB group are grossly underated, these people did a great job in creating awareness and helping to galvanize Southerners and Christian parts of middle belt. Even important personalities in the middle belt like Obadaih Mailafia often showers encomium on the group and I can tell you that so many others both within and outside Igboland secretly admire and acknowledge them.

I think the basic reason why they don't want to invite ESN is fear of Abuja. They might even assassinate Ortom if he does that because they will feel threatened that Benue they have almost conquered is about to be fully liberated.

You're right and matured enough to acknowledge that publicly. The fulanis already know that and that's why they are now willing to allow Igbos go. They know as long as we remain in Nigeria, their plans of totally conquering all others will be difficult to achieve, if not impossible.

I have seen this issue discussed. It's obvious that the Fulani are eager to see the Igbo go. Even the Dot in A Circle statement indirectly alluded to that. The rate at which they have been endorsing referendum for Igbo is a pointer that everyone should know is a ploy to isolate the Igbo influence on other Nigerians. Obviously, with Igbo gone, these other tribes would be mince meat for them. Who Can Challenge Fulani Apart From Igbo? Maybe the Jukuns may try, but they do not have the numerical strength to withstand combined onslaught from the security forces. The Kanuris, the other brave tribe are already worn down with Boko Haram.

Anyway, my opinion is that if they agree to all Igbos in Benue, Kogi, Rivers, Bayelsa, Delta, Edo, Cross River and Akwa Ibom, IPOB should grab that opportunity. Why should Igbo keep dying for others, who would turn around tomorrow to mock us?

You still don't get it. It was just a matter of time, regionalism would have been destroyed whether it was through Igbo coup or not. In fact, we can be too certain if all of those actions had the Fulani influence. They have shown themselves as users of people.

Then, you still haven't read history. Tell me, if the crisis between Fulani's and other tribes in CAR are also caused by Igbos. Or the one that made Ghana to ban Fulani open crazing. Or what of the fulani and Dogan wars? The track record of fulanis in Africa is always oppression of other tribes. They don't need a reason to do what they always do. In fact, we were just lucky the colonial masters came, if not the whole of Nigeria and africa would have been a conquered territory. Fulanis are moved by a greater agenda to conquer us all and dip the Koran in the Atlantic ocean; so not even Ironsi, ojukwu or anyone of them could have controlled any outcome. It is beyond such scope. We are just lucky for this new awakening, if not we would have all been bleeped.

Their plan was to use their control of government at the centre to isolate Igbos and make Igbophobia a national ideology. It has been working since 1970 and they succeeded in subduing us during the many years of military rule.

However, recent factors have completely changed the dynamics:

1. The emergence of internet/social media which means our relatively educated masses as well as the millions abroad can now speak with one voice.

2. Nnamdi Kanu/IPOB also arrived the scene at a critical time.

3. A combination of corruption, mismanagement of resources and Islamic jihardists as well as poverty and hunger ravaging the land all combined to make Nigerians restive, frustrated and angry.

The fulanis must have considered the above factors and realized that they can't make any further headway in their ulterior plans based on the status quo, so they are now looking at possible ways to rally other Nigerians against Igbos as a first plan or allow Igbos go without the rest of South breaking away too.

It is not a coincidence to see most of their elite come out openly to either insult Igbos or mock us. "Why must Igbos be allowed to rule, is it turn-by-turn Nigeria LTD" "5%" "dot in a circle" "Igbos have properties all over Nigeria" Igbos have no place to go" "spare parts sellers" "we have gotten agreement with SS" etc are all calculated to bring our psyche down but unfortunately for them, Igbos are smart enough to understand the game and we own each insult and turn it into something to make fun with like it's nothing demeaning.

To worsen their predicament, Igbo governors and ministers who they always intimidate and arm twist to bring us down have lost control. Nobody now listens to them or even respects them.

No one should waste his time discussing this topic with you. You're a high profile ignorant but arrogant ingrate. No lecture can correct your disjointed sense of history.
Before the 1966 coup, Awolowo was already jailed by the Balewa government and Western Nigeria(Yorubaland) was on the path of total conquest. Samuel Akintola was just a pun without his own knowledge. Yorubas were effectively divided with internal destruction that was culminated into the popular wild wild west nomenclature of the region. An intervention was desperately needed and there's no where such intervention could have come if not from one of the Big 3s. It's on record that people all over rejoiced when the news of the coup filtered through. Looking from the historical perspective, Igbos lost more from that intervention while other tribes that could have been swallowed up by the momentum of Sardauna had a breathing space. They up till date don't regard that intervention as a saving factor for them. Where TIVs not been killed in the 60s? Was the fulani conquest not real during Sardauna's time? Are there no statements credited to him that was explicit enough about his aims? Igbo men who were visionary enough have always stuck out their heads to save others but what we always get in return is false accusations based on unfounded fear of Igbo domination. Look at where it has landed Nigeria. What's the worst thing that Igbos could have done to Nigeria if they were to have led her? Would Nigeria have been this destroyed? Would life have been this valueless in Nigeria? This penchant of hating Igbos because of fear is what fulanis have exploited to the fullest. Of all the countries fulanis had forcefully initiated jihads all over West Africa, there's non they still wield political power but Nigeria because other tribes within those countries cut them down to size. Why is the Nigerian case different? This is what other indigenous tribes of Nigeria should be asking themselves.
IPOB with MNK as her leader have currently done a fantastic job in exposing the fulanis once again. We are currently battling for the survival of other tribes. The least we expect is for those other tribes to join the fulani army in fighting us. They should form their own security and battle the fulani terrorists attacking their lands and give us moral support too. We have been sacrificing a lot for the people of Nigeria.
God Bless IPOB
God Bless MNK.
