you don't know what you are saying. If truely you are an Igbo man,then I can confidently say you are a weak Igbo man because you have allowed them to defeat you psychologically.
Go through nairaland and count the anti Igbo thread and tell me why Igbo's should not respond back to them. Even the modes make it a responsibility to push anti Igbo thread to the front page. Even Nigeria news papers make it a responsibility to publish anti Igbo news( imagine the news that kano state generate more igr than the whole south east). Some peoples jobs on nairaland is to go through google and search drug related offence committed by an Igbo man and bring it to nairaland so that the will keep painting our people bad meanwhile their own people wipe out a whole village and the government does not even care. Look at what has been happening in IMO state,unknown gunmen will kill a soldier and then the soldiers will reinforce and burn down the whole village.look at the south east roads,look at the infrastructure in the south east ( is zero level ) but they can build a rail to Niger republic. If really you are Igbo man then you don't really know what you are saying,you are a very weak Igbo man,the type that his wife will control.

Now you are talking.why the fake news only on igbos?.. you talked about bad roads & infrastructure in the east? the three tier of government should share the blame for bad road & infrastructure in the east.how many states & lg owned roads in the east are good?we should learn to hold our leaders in Alaigbo responsible for this decay.you talked about rail project?All our senators except Abaribe are not doing enough in this regard.. remember we have ministers, senators,hor members, state govnors, state assembly members yet, our roads & infrastructures remains very bad.we must not blame the fg on every matter in Alaigbo..ALL OF THEM INCLUDING THE,FG,SG& THE LG ARE FAILURES.. back to the main issue.WHY THE ANTI IGBO THREAD?..WHY ARE WE ALWAYS ON THE NEWS?

Notasyouthink:
Of course I read your post and I sensed arselicking, self-denial and foolishness. You claim not to be protecting anyone's interest then, how do you now arrived to a conclusion that pride is what will bring Ndigbo down??

So in your feeble mind Ndigbo are the trouble makers because you see them engaging Yorubas, hausas and niger deltans which means you see these tribes as saints while Igbos are troublesome.

Meanwhile you've not answered my question.

We can discuss without abusing anyone.you missed the point! HOW WOULD YOU FEEL WHEN YOU HEAR THAT YOUR BROTHER OR SISTER IS AT THE CENTER OF DISCUSSION EVERYDAY IN YOUR COMMUNITY?..AS AN IGBO I'M BOTHERED WHY WE ARE ALWAYS ON THE NEWS

I'm not stupid! IGBO ADAGE;IF ONE OF YOUR FINGER TOUCHES THE PALM OIL IT WILL AFFECT THE OTHER FINGERS.the best way up in life is to always pause and ask your self honest and hard questions.. you said Igbo hatred have been on the rise? what exactly is the cause of this Igbo hatred? THERE ARE TWO THAT I KNOW..1.prosperity attracts jealousy, jealousy leads to hatred.ISAAC & JACOB experienced this type of hatred in there time, in the Bible..jealousy & hatred can also be found in Alaigbo.however, beside prosperity factor, there is another factor which is the number 2:BAD ATTITUDE TOWARDS YOUR HOST.let me stop here & allow you to ponder

So if the proverb is true, how come the whole Fulanis are not stained by Buhari incompetence and nepotism?
How come Atiku and El rufai are still nursing presidential hopes? How come the entire Fulani nation are not soiled and banned from elective posts in Nigeria looking at how their brothers the Fulani Herdsmen have been leaving footprints of blood from middle belt to lower South?

How come that despite Abacha looting the country into dark age, up to the point that we are still receiving his loots today, despite the loots of Gowon until he was kicked out by military junta, despite the loots of IBB and Abdulsalam,all greedy looters whose loots left NIGERIA comatose and whose tradition of looting Buhari has continued, despite all this, the North are not smeared by oil of greed, no one talks about how their greed and incompetence ruined the country.
They walk free and continue to nurse ambitions of ruling the country again.

It would appear there are two rules in this country. One rule for the Igbo, and a different rule for everyone else.
Your hypocrisy stinks.

michelz:

This your comment here shows that you are a child and maybe, new to Nairaland.
What do you mean by ' bad attitude towards your hosts'?
Have you ever heard that Igbos fought with any group outside Igboland as a result of provocation from the Igbos?
What then is this bad attitude towards the host that you speak of?

Yes you are right we don't fight our host!!! but there are some things some of us do that breeds hatred: ALWAYS CLAIMING TO BE SUPERIOR OR WISER THAN EVERYONE....humility abhor such.

NDIGBO LET US PAUSE & LOOK OUR SELVES IN THE MIRROR.

The problem started from a radio broadcaster that preaches hate, arrogance and bitterness. This radio broadcaster did not even spared our elders, as he insulted them, beat one up in Germany and called our think tanks ottelectuals.
The irony is that the same elders he insulted, threatened and belittled are currently begging the commander in chief to show him mercy.
These brainwashed fools are on every nook and crannies attacking everything and everyone, and roping Igbos into their madness.
Chukwu aju their Biafra.

Advocate500:
you are stupid and childish, if the number of igbos on nairaland that are not up to 2% of the entire igbo population now represents the opinion all igbos in general to your myopic reasoning. That shows how daft and senseless you are.


I am very sure you are not an igboman, nairaland have been a forum where tribal hatred and bigotry are welcomed, is more like competition within the opposing tribes ,both igbos, yurobas, ijaws, huasa and fulani insult each other under the guise of tribal superiority and you feel is right to drag the entire tribe to this madness ?

Who are paying you guys to discredit an igboman? If you want to condemn the issue of tribalism on this forum, why not try and be holistic in your criticism? Singling out a particular tribe to an offence of almost all the tribe in Nigeria is the height of stupidity.

Calm down. Ndi Igbo need serious orientation. Have you been on Igbo history Facebook page? Post anything on ikwerre or Anioma and see the comments coming from some South East angles. The recent one is on Obi Maduka of Isele Ukwu. Come and see insults and bitterness.
We are gradually crossing the Rubicon. We need to sit back and reflect on realities. Love and tolerance conquers more than brute and force.
Engage any forum and groups, check the users that are likely to throw up insult or drag other ethnic group, its always our people.
If we don't change, I wonder how we can coexist together even in the supposed Biafra that most of us are clamoring for.

If I hear that my brother or sister is at the centre of discussion, the first thing I will do as a reasonable person is to know what made them to be discussing my sis or bro in a bad manner. I will not rush into conclusion by pointing accusing fingers against my bro or sis without deeming it fit to know who is actually at fault.

No matter how you want to twist it all I know is that you messed up big time. How can put the blame on Ndigbo when you are supposed to know that there's no smoke without fire. What type of arselicking is that?? Selling your tribe to the enemies (that is if you're truly Igbo) cannot make them to love or trust you.

Obi of issele uku and his ilks in Anioma who bring disgrace to Ndiigbo with their Bini servitude and Stockholm syndrome, deserve all insults Ndiigbo are hauling their way and more.
You will never see Ndiigbo insult the likes of Obi of Onicha Ugbo, Asagba of Onitsha or Obi of Ogwashi-uku, because these lots don't deny their Igbo heritage with senseless Bini stories that invite expansionist Binis into Aniomaland.

In international engagement, there is no room for diplomacy and dialogue towards a people who meets you with hate, envy and evil.

Tell me the most prominent Ijaw man in history?

Ijaws were so inconsequential that Igbos were rulling over you in your lands.
Oko Jumbo in Bonny was Igbo, King Pepple was Igbo, Jaja was Igbo, Edi Abali the ancestor of Asari Dokubo who ruled Buguma was Igbo from Abam.

The Igbos who have decorum don't seem to be interested in the happening in the region.

If the so-called decorum amounts to the share of space with backbiters and perennial betrayal artists in shithole called Nigeria, I honestly do not want any part of it. Ndigbo have inherently decided to move away from Nigeria. It must happen.
