Cybercrime isn't perpetrated by only Igbos... Back here in d country we all know d southwest is d lesding region in cyber crime. It's jus due to d Igbo man's nature to always travel away from his home to make a living

You just don't get it, the people we are discussing are living in USA, are they marginalised, by the Nigeria, in the USA?.
Haba

salford1:
I wish the yorubas can do same for any of their political class anytime they enter America or the EU.

Many immigrants wish to live in Nigeria close to their culture and family, but these politicians have turned the country to a shithole.

Something that Yorubas have been doing since the reign of Alafin Aole, they did it to Gaha, it happened to oba Olayode the former soun of Ogbomosho.
Have you not heard of wetie, why do you think the SW is called the " wild wild west "?.
We don't just beat them up, we forced them out, what happened in Germany is just a dress rehearsal compare to what we do around here.
The people of Ife forced Ooni Sijuade to flee Ife, during the June twelve crisis in fact, when he did not return after several weeks, they named him " the Ooni of Ikeja ".
The people of Ekiti pursued Ewi of Ado out of his palace, for maltreating his wife, and made sure he never returned, he was eventually dethroned. He was lucky, the Ogbomosho people killed Oba Olayode .
The list is endless so you see we don't need to borrow such idea from IPOB, it is called mass insurrection and uprising, born out of endless frustration.
Yorubas have moved from jungle justice to the use of ballot, they will always rise to correct their erring leaders,
they are currently using the ballot to expel them, or did you not see what happened to MESU SARAKONDA?, Fayose and Ajimobi?.

Chiwude:
We are collecting our tickets from the both parties. We are stakeholders in the APC too.
This is Buhari telling you the same thing here.
Take a look!

Chiwude:
The Igbo political elites don't hate Tinubu. His thirst for power and the way he used the Oba of Lagos in the 2015 Gubernatorial elections to threaten Ndigbo brought that skepticism.
If the APC presents an Igbo consensus candidate, the SE/SS in the PDP will drop the idea of supporting a northerner. Wike and his associates in the PDP are not fools to gift the north another 4 years when they've ruled for 8 years already.
The SW cannot eat her cake and have it. Tinubu is coming out when others haven't tasted it. The SW have ruled for 8 years, they've had VP positions twice and Speaker thrice.
So on what ground are you jostling for Presidency this time around, when it was the same sympathetic cause you were gifted the Presidency in 1999.

Why not collect your Ticket from PDP?

Chiwude:
Sure. I think the APC may field either a Ken Nnamani, Rochas, Ameachi or Uzor Kalu while the likes of PDP fields a Umahi, Wike or Obi.
The SW will be in for a shocker.

Wake up dreamer.

Ultimatezlant:
lol, first am not Yoruba , next all these your tales of turning history in its head as you usually do won't work here.

Obj scored 18,738154 against falae 11,110287 in the 1999 election.

Igbo total votes for the winner obj was 2,307712 votes in all east states


Now subtract 2,307712 votes from obj 18,738154 obj still has 16,430442 votes.


Regarding the southern unity igbos gave olu falae 978,999 in all igbo states add that to obj 2,307712 it sums up 3,286709 total votes from Igbo land and obj would have still won comfortably had that 3m votes been given to ekwueme.



These are all verifiable and online, e clear say na una dey turn history on its head

Wicked.

TSRC:
The south East has the advantage of a southern popularity even before the elections.
We will defeat any Yoruba contender in the southern region and take the battle to the.north.

A Dave umahi or a Peter obi for the goal.

I salivate at the scale of national infrastructure a Dave umahi is capable of creating with federal resources.
The guy has transformed ebonyi.

, , Uhuru at last, this is the more reason why PDP should pick their presidential candidate from SE.

candidtalk:
I reckon you should do it. You will make a fortune and be as rich as Seun if igbos patronise you. The sad thing though is that Igbos will not leave Nairaland because Igbos are obsessed with the Yorubas and would be unable to breathe if they cannot associate with them. Same as I know, 100%, the Biafra noise is fake. Let it happen today and Igbos outside the SE will refuse flatly to return. Bro we know una well well. Igbos never say what they mean and never mean what they say.

Chai.

APCLyingBastard:
No. This was just a brash reaction to the northern Fulani supremacist agenda.

Ahmadu Bello and his stooge Tafa Balewa were bent on fulanization agenda.

This is what led to the coup.

Funny how the same Fulanis then switched the tables round to accuse the Igbos of trying to dominate Nigeria while they had been doing the same exact thing since 1960!

, , What were the Igbos doing in the civil service of the north, even after the exit of the British?.
Igbos keep replacing one Igbo civil servant with another, or have you guys not heard?.
Amodu Bello spoke against it and he was labelled an Igbo hater, was it not the same reason why AKINTOLA had to die?, he only asked a simple question, HOW can Yorubas be employed as gardner's and cleaners only, at the University of Ibadan?, are there no Yorubas that can qualify as an ordinary clerk?
Is this not the same reason, why your people are organizing o to ge, for Tinubu in Lagos.
What I have come to understand about you people, is that any leader that has the interest of his people at heart, is an enemy of the Igbos.
Thank God apart from history, our discussions, are now in the open.
We can now sit and analyse whats going on now, to help us have a better understanding of what happened in the past, and why we are where we are now.

Agbari Ojukwu, meaning a the " head of Ojukwu" a big black pot we used for frying a large quantities of meat or fish.

CrimeKsmart:
I am not his fan but the way you people attack him for nothing has made me love him. Last time I checked, he is not from SE and he has never meddled in SE politics but you will see igbos from Abia, Enugu, IMO and other eastern states hating on this man.

If I ask you why hating or insulting the man, you will never have a cogent response.

, , , CHAI.
Tinubu is AWO, AKINTOLA AND MKO combined.
This is why they are obsessed with him.

franchasng:
Tinubu can never become President of Nigeria, you can bookmark this thread.

If Tinubu wants to become President before he dies, he should work hard and let Nigeria divide peacefully so he can become President of Oduduwa nation or maybe he should work for Nigeria to restructure into independent Regional nations united by one big umbrella called Nigeria, and then he can become the Prime Minister of Southwestern region.

A drug lord, a greedy looting machine that converted Lagos to his family property, a ritualist who worships all sorts of voodoo he uses to hold his Yoruba people under siege can never be the President of a united Nigeria.

Buhari became the President by mistake, remember he contested more than 3 times before he mistakenly won, that mistake will never occur again, and if at all, Tinubu should be ready to keep contesting for at least 4 times before he can have a near chance, and by then he should be in his 90s.

Osinbajo stands a better chance of becoming Nigeria's President than the corrupt, voodoo worshipping drug lord of Bourdillion!!

Yawns, anyway why should Tinubu divide it when he can have it all.
Awon suegbe.

ProudDick:
Animals like you will spew so much hate about Yorubas on the internet then turn around and accuse Yoruba of hatred for Igbos. How does the Yoruba side the north to power?

Who aligned with balewa for a figurehead president?

Who voted Shagari over Awolowo for a vp position?

Who was supporting Babangida when he cancelled the 1993 election?

Who was organizing a one million march for abacha to perpetuate himself in power?

Now tell me again how the Yoruba are aiding the north to power.

So because the south west voted Buhari you are turning history on its head?

You Igbos with so much hatred in your heart for the Yoruba will always talk nonsense without facts. You are bitter because you are out of power. Igbos always cause problems anytime they lose out of power. Ojukwu fought for Biafra because Igbos lost out of power because of their greed. Kanu is agitating because Igbos lost out of power.

We do not see your Biafra agitation as genuine. You should have been shouting for Biafra under Jonathan maybe we would have taken you serious.

Keep wailing until 2023 and let’s see if you will win or it’s going to be another years of wailing.

Their mumu NEVER do, they think if they sweep all their atrocious contribution under the carpet, everyone will believe them.
, , I said it before and I will say it again, unapologetically that Igbos are the ones who destroyed this country.
The records of their nepotism is still there at the University of of Ibadan, in fact Akintola had to die because he challenged such nonsense.
They did the same thing in the North, they were employed by the colonial masters as public administrators in the North, instead of training the people, they were going to the East to recruit new staffs, now you know why Amadu Bello had to die.
As long as you will not submit yourself and your people for plundering, you are their enemy.
Unfortunately for them eye don open, everybody don wise up.
Did you see how they abandoned SE to come and shout Tinubu o to get in Lagos?, they call him a thief.
Awo was a labeled tribalist for stopping a disaster, like an Igbo man becoming the premier of SW.
Yorubas were labeled cowards for not succumbing to annexation of Yorubaland.
They just don't get it that, that if we throw a knife up a thousand times, it shall continue to land by its side.
You can't insult people and still expect them to agree with you, they are on OYO.

Jamesbally:
I know you must be Igbo. I'm from North and I'm ready to engage you on this debate. But I need you to tell me what the Eastern Region has contributed to the Nation's Economy?

, , Correct guy open their yansh.

LLMG:
It's your type that will always lose at the end of the day due to stupidity and self deceit. Pity.

Back to sender, I have no problem with anybody, who ever have problem with me should quit or die trying.

Bede2u:
u know another people who thought exactly wat u are thinking now? Hausa chiefs before dan fodio desimated them and took over their lands; illorin yoruba chiefs before alimi's son decimated them and took over illorin; aguiyi ironsi before the north brutally murdered him and took over his position.

Anyway u might be a fulani thats why u said this. Sane southerners should come together with middle belt and take power away from the core north for a long time

@ Bolded is why you are still afraid, seize power from who exactly?, are they not your fellow Nigerians?, this state of mind was exactly how the poo hit the fan in 1966, and you know the subsequent events.
The only way to get power is through votes any other way is a road to perdition.
Has the middle belt ever tell you that are not North?.
Gowon, Babangida, Abdulsalami Abubakar, Danjuma, Dogonyaro, Jerry Useni, Jerry Gana, Domkat Bali and so on, these are the powers behind the northern hegemony, they are a mixture of Christians and Muslims.
Non of these people are Fulani, oh Because Danjuma is now wailing and forming Christian?.
You better start fighting your battles and stop waiting for help from the middle belt, when the chips are down, you will be on your own.
You better go and learn a thing or two from Zamani Lekwot, did the middle belt rise in his defense?.

Useless people with PARANOID MENTALITY.
Since June 12 election, war is coming, ozo Abiola and they fled, the people that died fleeing to the village, are more than those rioting and confronting Abacha's soldiers in SW.
Ikeja cantonement bomb blast, those who mistook it for war and got drowned while fleeing, are more than those who are right inside the cantonement, who are actually trapped because they can't escape.
Nigeria will not go beyond 2015, Buhari wants to islamize Nigerias, I'm still waiting for this.
Nigeria will not survive 2019 election, Buhari must not contest 2019 election, if he tries, he will die.
Fulanis are coming in from Futa Jallon to come and take our lands.
Village people, witches, wizard, ogbanje, incubus, succubus, our people mumu just no gree do.
Only evil people are afraid of others, this is why the Asians says, " master your fear ".
Only those who habour evil toughts towards others are afraid of others, they always assume that the feeling is mutual.

pinkPUSSY:
Don't mind those clowns..

Igbos have occupied all the political posts in Nigeria as first timers starting from number one citizen to the least political position before afonjas start dreaming about politics..

Some of them think that Nigeria started in 2015..


Since butterfly have started seeing itself as a bird, afonjas must go back to their wailing position in 2023.

@ bolded, yet Igbos won't stop wailing marginalization, so who exactly is marginalising the Igbos.

MrSquint:
Truth is Bayelsans are tired of pdp, that state is the most unfortunate state amongst the Niger Delta States. That Dickson governor is a big thief and shouldn't be allowed to bring in a successor that will thief more and most likely hide Dickson's thiefry. Let the verifier be verified by apc's efcc.

That Dickson is an unserious man, he was the one who ruined the chance of PDP in Osun state.
I watched the primary election video, the club dancer did not win the primary, Dickson did abracabra counting and the runner up asked Dickson to recount the ballot papers.
He vehemently refused, he just declare that dubious result and fled the place, i'm so happy they all got served.

Awon ara won ka shai ba ara won ja, awon ara won.
Yorubas are not interested in Sowore's show of shame.
We did not even vote him, I guess his mum just dey start.
You know how we roll so stop consolling yourself, we nuked the first republic with wetie, in the wild wild west.
We nuked the second republic with protest and riots, we forced Babangida to step aside.
We sent Abacha to hell were he truly belongs, we sent Jonathan to Otuoke and install this president.
We are ok with this government, why would we support one small boy, to destroy our effort?, and to return us, to where if I may ask?.
Find better work do jor.

Wow!! Great piece of history. It needs to be documented in books, and relayed through films. Balogun Agoro should be given his rightful place, in history.

In fact, further reading about the bombardment of Lagos in 1851, shows that the expedition launched by the British Naval forces under Commander Forbes, was an attack party made up of 306 officers, men, marines and sailors aboard HMS Bloodhound along with 21 boats.



Kosoko was able to hold his ground and repel them. By the time the British forces came back a 2nd time in December 1851, they had reinforced their attack party, with 3 more armed boats. Yet, Kosoko was still able to hold them at bay for 3 fierce days, before his army caved in. That battle is referred to as "Ogun Ahoyaya/Ogun Agidingbi" (I hope I got the spelling right).

You got everything right history is beautiful, our people take history with a pinch of salt, if you don't know where you are coming from, how can you know where you are going?.
Most African Americans did not bother about their identity until Alex Haley's voyage of reunion to Gambia.
If Kunta Kinte did not hammered it into his daughter's head that his origin is Gambi Bolongo " Gambia River ", there would never have been a reunion, between Kunta Kinte's children and his people in Gambia, after almost 350 years.
Or if the people of Gambi Bolongo, did not have a village Griots, who were the custodians of the families and the village history, would Alex Haley ever meet his great grand father's family?.
The things I have heard from my grand parents, as told by their fore fathers, is the reason why I used to laugh a lot on this forum.

No matter what you say, the Yoruba nation will never have the liver to fight Nigeria the way Igbo nation once did. But if it is noise making, I can give them that one

You better go and find out what went down between Ogbomosho people and the Nigerian Army, after the death of Akintola.
Na trailers, the Nigerian Army dey take park the bodies of dead soldiers everyday, the Nigerian Army eventually fled Ogbomosho.
Ogbomosho alone will fix the Nigerian army, Ogbomosho is closer to Ilorin, wonder why the Fulanis had to invade Yoruba land through Oshogbo?.

I'm not talking about Yoruba commanders, anybody from any tribe can be a commander in the Nigerian Army.

What I mean is that the Igbo nation fought the Nigerian state for its freedom for 3 years.

The Yoruba nation will never have the backbone or guts to fight the Nigerian state for 3 minutes, whether for its freedom or any other reason

But if it is noise making, they will know how to do that one well for more than 3 minutes, even 3 years.

Wey my zobo? Na on top this thread I go match brake today.

I am waiting for those Yoruba guys to give you a befitting response, because this post you made up here shows that you are a very poor student of history....

If you had read about the battle for Lagos in 1851, you would see how Oba Kosoko held his turf against the British Royal Navy led by Commander Forbes in November that year. Kosoko successfully repelled the attacks launched by the British that November.

The British regrouped and launched a second attack the following month using superior fire power. They were able to overpower Kosoko's forces because they now had 3 gun boats and more ammunition. The battle was fierce and lasted for 3 days, but the British suffered heavy casualties in the process, before they could overpower Kosoko's forces.

One of King Kosoko's defense cheif was my mother's great grandfather, he is called Balogun Agoro Iposun.
The British exiled Kosoko to Epe after the war, Kosoko and Balogun Agoro went to stay in Epe.
The Balogun was the one who stopped the Ijaws and the Mahins from annexing Epe.
The Ijaws too are great warriors, they have been attacking Epe from the waters, trying to annex the coastlines on that axis, but they met their Waterloo when they met Balogun Agoro Iposun, they were drowned at a place called ITEBU, that place is called eyin osa, at Ibeju Lekki are of Lagos State today.
The remaining Ijaw armies on water fled in their boats,
Balogun Agoro told his soldiers not to pursue them.
The Balogun told his soldiers that they cannot venture TOO DEEP into the water, because he had no idea of the size of the Ijaw army on the other side of the water.
And so they continue to wait for the agressors, to come back, having take charge of every other available route.
The Ijaws knows what awaits them in Epe, they NEVER return.
Go to Afero village today in Epe, you will see long WALL of sand that were used as defense formation, where guards were positioned, to keep eye on the invaders and quickly nip it in the bud.
Only intelligent people fight war like this, not some suicidal morrons, facing gun shots with cutlasses.
Thank you for taking them to history class, peace.

laudate:
It would be great, if a TV documentary could be done about this great piece of history..... for posterity .

His relics of war are still in his palace at oke Iposun, in Epe.
He was King Kosoko's cheif of defense, the baba was so tough that, people of Epe dare not mess up with his children.
He's been dead for more than a 100 years, the people around that axis still fear him. .
If you are interested, pm me.

The wars Yoruba fought, if it was Ibo there will not be a single Ibo left alive....you will all h as ve perished, totally annihilated.

Look at 1967 civil war for example....in just 3yrs alone you lost over 3million people.

How many would you loose in 6yrs...in 10yrs...

Yoruba fought a war that lasted a decade....not to mention the theaters were on different fronts and we did not loose even half a million.

Can Ibo beat that? Tell us how.

Yorubas fought a hundred years of civil wars after the collapse of the Oyo empire.
They went as far as using guns, that is my the last war was named after the sound of gun, KIRIJI WAR.
My mother's great grandfather Balogun Agoro Iposun, was the one who stopped the Mahins and the Ijaws from seizing Epe, the spot were he and his army DROWNED the ijaw and the Mahin army, is called eyin osa, at Ibeju Lekki area of Lagos.
The reason why people come online to say nonsense is the absence of history in our schools.
Thank God history is back in our schools.

TSRC:
If I hear.
If anybody wants to fight, it is certainly not Yoruba.
They just don't have it in them.
At least, it is smart. To avoid unnecessary loses.

Igbos on the other hand don't care if the fight is beyond them.
They go headlong into it to prove some kind of masculinity and honour.

And they end up wailing genocide, awon suegbe.

Samunique:
Your last statements just nailed it.

You are wise bro, you're real omoluabi !!!

They thought Yorubas are wasteful numbskulls like them.
