Speak for yourself sir, we Ebonyians are marginalize, stigmatized by fellow Igbos But i take exception to that. BIAFRA is better off. Although the pursuit approach now is wrong. Ebonyi is worst hit by Biafra agitational crisis than Abia and Enugu. Or even when it comes to complying with the already quashed sit-at-home Ipob order, everywhere is usually grounded in Ebonyi compare to other eastern states. Sorry we believe in Biafra, Not Ipob or ESN.

You are not wrong but it exists only in Anambra State not Imo or Abia. I only got to know about it on Nairaland and later through live discussions. I believe Anambra as a State discriminated against other Igbos which birthed much of the disunity but in recent years the unity has improved.

The disunity we have today were all created by Abia and Imo from sacking non Indigenes to implementing policies targeting others.

Anambra has always been at the forefront of uniting others for peaceful co-existence even to their own detriment.

This is just the fact

This is the fact here

I can tell Igbo people want Biafra but not this nnamdi kanu/ipob brand


Remove ipob and many other igbos will support Biafra - they are going about the right thing the wrong way.

Biafra will never be actualized by violence.

IPOB is a ruinous gang that is bent on destruction of Igboland.

A family friend of ours left Diamond Bank for GTB simply for the fact that he was from Asaba and the promotion due him was given to lesser person in qualification and job performance.
He was told something to his face that will never make him ever identify as Ibos, the derogatory comments he tolerated back then in St Dennis Boys Onitsha won't be repeated in adulthood

I think it unwise to judge an entire tribe by the few you have met..
I have met anambra people who aren't proud..
Ave equally met Yoruba's who are worse than proud..
The person you related with is wicked not the entire Enugu people please..

InHeaven:
I've stayed and relate with Eboyans, truth be told, they're different from Igbo in character. They're cool and friendly to be with.

You see those Anambrarian, they're very PROUD. You'll even observe that trait from here.
That's why I doubt Juliusmalema /Melezenawi is from Anambra cos he's different

Enugu People, devil in disguise. Very wicked.

Had a friend from IMO STATE, he's cool but womanize alot

I've related and still relating with those State indigene so it isn't fabrication.

Give any historical appreciation that supports Igbo origin. Most of them are northern migrants.

Umahi is absolutely right! Even my own dear state of Anambra will NEVER be part Kanu's Biafra. Ipob has become an affliction, a plague and an epidemic all rolled into one! I wish the FG will hang the stupid Kanu to compensate for all the atrocities committed by the brainless Ipob, including the murder of Ahmed Gulak

You are right. Imo state Igbos are one of the most educated and progressive igbos. This discriminatory behaviour is an Anambra thing and funny enough I read a study that shows that Anambra is partly igala. They are very mixed...You will find the real non-mixed igbos around imo/Abia...

This one that will be totally insignificant 2 months after his handover? This generation of Igbo governors will surely meet their Waterloo when Buhari is gone.. Always complaining of marginalisations yet he has been the leader of the South East governors forum for almost 5 years nonstop and no one is complaining. This is a position that used to be rotated around the Governors of the 5 Eastern States on yearly basis. If it was the governor of say Imo or Anambra that has hyjacked the position as he did, he would have ran away from that forum shouting marginalization. How is he being marginalized by a group he heads and speaks for?

His immediate elder brother was made the head of the Regional security group, ebubeagu. His brother used to be the head of the South East branch of the PDP. Ebonyi produced both the Senate president in Pius Anyim under Obasanjo and secretary to the government of Nigeria under Jonathan in the same Pius Anyim using Eastern slots! He collects his bribe money from Buhari and like an excited child, starts to foam in the mouth as if his vociferous support for Buhari is a general consensus of the igbos. This guy helped to impose the new Ohaneze president! So how is he being marginalized? In the old Anambra of 40 years back or what?


Your point is political. In the general view what Umahi said is correct. Igbos are the most segregating tribe in Nigeria. They don't just stereotype other tribes but within the Igbo tribes.

Irrespective of politics, umahi have made a significant point about ebonyians and Biafra. Over the years Ebonyi is been marginalized by other Igbo state in East just like Nsuka people there by seeing them as third class Igbo with mockery name "Nwa abankelele" umahi is very realistic but he must be attack by ipob miscreants because he said the truth. The more Ebonyians understand this and denounce Biafra agitation the better for them. Delta and rivers made a good choice by not allowing Ipob to disorganized development in thire state, I believe it's a high time for ebonyi to follow Sue. Any ebonyi or Nsuka man that die because of Biafra died in vein
one thing is that a truth can never hide forever..... Igbos are giving ebonyians and nsukkas fake love just to have for population advantage during election time,,,, Ibos hated ebonyins and nsukas like they hate fulanis.... i know ebonyians will soon got their freedom, but nsukkas are the ones in big trap

Ebonyi State will never be part of Biafra due to the marginalisation and slavery its people has suffered in the hands of other Igbos, says Governor Dave Umahi.

“Ebonyi will never be part of Biafra because of the marginalisation and slavery that Ebonyi people had been subjected to over the years by their South East brothers” Mr Umahi said on Wednesday.

Agitations for the sovereign state of Biafra, led by secessionist group Indigenous People of Biafra has been rife in recent years. Mr Umahi has never hidden his opposition to IPOB agitations.

The governor was reacting angrily to allegations that Ebonyi indigenes were responsible for the fatal attacks that is ravaging Anambra State.

He described the allegation as false, adding, “if any Ebonyi person is caught in killing, that person should be killed too.”
According to him, the killings in Anambra are political killings that have no link with Ebonyi people.

He said criminals who were from other states in the South-East zone had been arrested for the killings and other heinous crimes in Ebonyi State, without announcing their states of origin.

The governor, who is the chairman of the South-East Governors’ Forum, wondered why other people derive joy in tarnishing the image of Ebonyi people.

Anambra State is literally under siege as unknown gunmen have upped their attacks around the state ahead of the governorship election scheduled for November 6.

Many residents, including prominent physician Chike Akunyili have been murdered in the past few weeks.

Government and private assets such as police, SSS and INEC offices have also come under arsonists’ attacks.

Attorney General Abubarkar Malami on Wednesday threatened that a state of emergency might be imposed if the attacks do not cease.

He said the Buhari regime has the responsibility to ensure elections hold and also protect lives and properties.

Umahi is a basement fool. There was nobody in the apex corridor power in the defunct eastern region who hailed from the present Imo State. At least, Akanu Ibiam the governor of eastern region hailed from the present Ebonyi State. What form of marginalization is dumbass talking about?
