Nah, not just her, even my mum and other girlfriends I know. Also women are more attracted to your emotional side than your physical form

Okoro, when has investment outside one's locality culminates to an act of patriotism?
They're simply investing for values and returns.
So we should conclude that all those who invested in Dubai are patriotic to UAE.

Pls check the dictionary meaning of Patriotism.
It's simply Love for ones country.
You & I know that this is not true about those that consistently refer to their own country as 'Zoo', detest & defile constituted authorities of their own country.

.


So those who can't put their resources across other ethnic area have patriotism?

What can be more valuable to humanity if not resources both human and material?

So Hausa and fulanis who can't bring out their money to buy land and do cow business in my land have patriotism?

I hold ibos for what they do not what they say.

Patriotism is an action not a verbel expression, ibos match theirs with their hard earned money

THIS IS NOW OLD AND OUT-DATED AFONJA PROPAGANDA.



THE PRESIDENCY OF 2023, CAN ONLY COME FROM THE SE REGION, OTHERWISE GOOD BYE NIGERIA.

The traditional chest beating in full force. Reminds me of "no force in Africa..." talk by one Igbo that bolted to Cote d'ivoire in the heat of battle.

Patriotism is in words and in deed.
It's not a product that you can buy with money.
The fact that I'd lived and have invested in a place doesn't translate to patriotic act. In most cases its purely a liveable decision.

People who demean it own country and calls it all kinds of derogatory name like zoo, burned down govt properties and kill security agencies, openly professed not to be Nigerian can never be square up as patriotic.
FYI, we live with them just like every other tribes in the country so we know them.

Maybe you should look for another fable to justify their patriotism & not the standpoint of living in every nooks and crannies of Nigeria.

Ovamboland:


You are still playing the Zik playbook of God of Africa made the Ibo to be leaders and liberator of Africa that has put you in the current predicament. The lie is seem in your inability to excel in the little enclave given to you to manage.

It's not a curse but your situation will take a very long time to get solution

As long as you people is holding Igbo's backward you peoples is also backward.
Learn to liberate yourselves by standing a lone without Igbo's to help you.

When it comes to the two ethnic group that throws jabs at one another online ,the Igbos and the Yorubas have thier own fair share of abusing one another. So ,dont start with only the Jabs that have be thrown against the Yorubas by the Igbos, without capturing some horrible jabs that have been thrown at the Igbo by the Yorubas.
Stop playing the victim here- as if both ethnic group have not be at each others throat since 2015. If you know you don't have the stomach for unecessary insult, then your guys must stop throwing insulting statement all over the place just to annoy the other ethnic group. Don't you know it pinches them as much as it does to you ?
So, when it comes to insulting one another online , both the Igbos and the Yorubas are guilty of horrible comments against the other ethnic group .
However, that are not the reasons why people are skeptical of the Igbo presidency.
I think some of them as as follows:
1) Pro-Divsion advocate: I feel other ethnic group don't believe the Igbos will unit Nigerians, becos they are Pro-dis-integration of the country ,which the elite from the north don't want to hear.They feel that through an Igbo presidency, Nigeria can easily divide .

(2) Lack of Unity : The Igbos are not united . They don't have that unity of purpose to support a choosen & credible candidate among them, without allowing thier Ego and pride to get in the way .E.g Atiku/Peter Obis' case .

3) Past Sins: They still have not been forgiven for the killings of thier leaders in the first Republic.( Though the north have done worse than the Igbos and they still get elected ,so what is thier own) The general north still hold majority of the vote and nobody would want to risk thier ticket with an ethnic group that is not in good terms with the north .
4) No national figure from the Igbo extraction had been tested and praised by his works. Just like Osibanjo from the S.W. He managed to showed his leadership skills with the little time he was given to lead the country. On the other hand , most of the Igbo leaders from both APC & PDP have been a big disappointment and leave less to he desired .
The only person from the SE I know is Peter Obi &Umahi from PDP . Obi, Who is known on a national level becos of the last presidential election as a VP to Atiku. Umahi on the other hand, is good but he is not known on a national level.
Aside from these two ,the rest contenders, especially from the APC party are nothing to right home about .They are a complete disaster just like our other politicians.

There will be unity in the Southern Nigeria the day every trible learn to stay and survive in their regions or the day those resident in another people's region stop saying that their host's land is a no-man's land.

Finance and Investment 101, you invest where your investment can be secured in addition to bringing returns. Those who invest in an insecure environment though may have high returns are only playing with fire. Why should someone have a fertile ground but will be contemplating of going to lease a land in the desert for cultivation, a land that is even abhorred by its owners? Are they doing land by barter?

Politics in Nigeria is a 'winner takes all' affair. The igbos as astute in marketing as they are, don’t know how to market themselves in politics, that’s why. You can either be President or you can choose to keep fighting for a phantom country, but u can’t have both! "The Yoruba are snakes and come from a brown roof republic", "the Hausas are murderers", "the Middle-belters are Fulani enablers", "the South-South are living in Biafraland". You’ll always stand alone when ure a know it all, that’s a fact! If the Igbo want support from the rest of the country, let them build bridges and not cheer as MNK burns them to the ground.

You got it.

We shall use our PVC to protect ourselves from the insolence. Dem never win be dat o. If dem win nko?

DEM GO SHIT FOR OUR HEAD, I TELL YOU.

okeyfrank:
Envy, hatred and jealousy

They know that the Igbos are far more intelligent, more industrious, more achieving

Igbo presidency will have to reverse their age-long action of 'keeping the Igbos down at all cost'

But they fail to see the opportunity in allowing the Igboman to lead Nigeria to their God's given greatness for the good of all..

Nomatter how bad Nigeria gets to, Igboman would definitely succeed better than any other tribe in Nigeria.


Shame!!!

Then use your most intelligence to get what you want.

mrvitalis:

U can't market yourself to people who fear ,envy and are intimated by how successful you are

You cannot be claim to be successful, if what you are fighting for is beyond you by your own default and you now want it through the backdoor....

You, Mr Vitalis are the worst exhibition of the product you want to sell.... Too bad.

TheRealestGuy:


Yes I agree that some Igbos can be very boastful and is full of himself especially when he's successful.

I also agree that denigrating other ethnic groups is unacceptable and I mentioned this in another comment that this can cause disaffection (even though Igbos also received their fair share of this denigration).

However, should this be the reason for intense hate to the extent of targeting them during riots or an Oba threatening their entire existence?

Every ethnic group has a stereotype and some form of weakness or Achilles heel that others really dislike (for example I could talk about Yorubas being cunning and not standing for principles or the Idoma/Ijaws being drunks - however these are mainly stereotypesthat do not necessarily hold as truth).

Talking about ethnic bigotry, we all know that all ethnic groups in Nigeria are guilty of this and this didn't make one group refuse to vote another based off of their ethnicity alone.

The part about Jonathan's administration is pure nonsense so I won't bother to comment on it.

You are sitting on the fence and it is not helping your case. Your folks Don spoil market tey tey....


Better join them or just vanish... literally. It is an irredeemable situation.

The simple reason is that we've seen through their actions and words that they're are Democratic in nature.
They have shown over the time that they lack most of the Democratic tendencies to govern a multiethnic and multi religious country like Nigeria.

Again we don't really know what they want going by their disposition. Today it's Biafra or death, then tomorrow it's Nigeria president.

Also they are the least patriotic tribe in Nigeria to be entrusted the highest office of the nation.

We've seen were the patriotic ones left Nigeria ( poverty capital of the world) so much for patriotism, a people that are afraid of investing anywhere in Nigeria, apart from their region, are now calling igboes that have faith in investing in any part of Nigeria, non patriotic, continue, you are really doing well in deceiving your self.

aribisala0:
Eboes did not vote a Yoruba ,at any time

Spare that story for the gods.

You contested against Obasanjo and were defeated.

So why don't you contest against Tinubu or whoever and defeat them.

If you are successful in clinching the tickets of PDP AND APC then see if Nigerians will vote for you

Do not make false comparisons

You MUST COMPETE AT THE PARTY LEVEL and clinch tickets there . Do not expect any party to gift you their candidacy because you are Eboe

You are too young to know when igboes voted yorubas, it's go outside and play.

TheRealestGuy:


Your comments in quotes are simply banter that we all do to each other.

Similar to "Igbo man fit sell him family or use him mama for rituals, dem too like money". These banks should not form basis of treating them like second class citizens and keeping them away from the presidency perpetually.

The average hausa-fualni has been killing Igbos and other southerners since the 1950s for one flimsy reason or another. This did not make Igbos to not vote Yar'adua or hate Atiku.

About Igbos not "knowing how to market themselves in politics" the thing is that the average Igbo man does not conform to herd thinking and tries to be as republican in nature as possible. Also, I'm not sure what marketing Yar'adua ever did or GEJ, for them to be elected presidents.

What you said looks simple to the eye but, a lot of wisdom and perception is embedded into it, your observations are too notch, Republican nature of the igboes, no herd mentality, apt observations.

Bcs they are greedy ,unfriendly and not loyal to the project " Nigeria"

Ndo!
Investing in every part of the country is a business decision borne out of the desire for personal gain, and not necessarily a patriotic act.

FYI,people still invest in Iraq,Syria, Libya etc.
The fact that some Palestinians still invest in Is real & vise versa doesn't show that the believe in the Nationhood.

It's same way you guys claimed to have invested in other Africa countries so investing in Nigeria shouldn't be the yardstick for ur false patriotism.
Even the Olowu of Iwo corroborated this recently.

TheRealestGuy:


By default?

Who measures the indices for this your default?

I dare say that Zik of Africa was one of the best political leaders and admistrators Nigeria ever had.

As a matter of fact, it was his nationalistic outlook and idealist principles that made him lose to other more tribalistic leaders like Awo and Ahmadu Bello in the scheme of things at the time.

Your reason is not only awkward but a figment of your imagination.

Pls stop smoking mkporu miri.

Which Zik are you speaking of. The same tribalistic bitter that almost turned Nigeria upside down just so that Ojukwu would emerge the governor of eastern region.

Wicked hypocrite.

How many bridges did the South West build with the Igbo's and the other groups to have Obasanjo emerge in 99?

Was it the bridge he built in prison that made Ekweume to step down for him in the primaries? For someone who could not even build a single bridge in his SW region which he lost colossally?

Is it only when Igbo presidency is mentioned that you clowns remember bridge building garbage?

Hypocrites. Where is your sense of equity and fairness?
