Gbawe: Nigg@ Learn to read. If you have inability to read, say so, therefore I can reduce my point to a childlike form for your inability. Point out where I, one_naira, said Nigerians are the number on drug dealers in Ghana? I said Nigerians are notoriously known for conducting criminal activities in Ghana, you stupid fool and went into dept and informed you of a, emphasis on A Nigerian business man caught drug dealing. I also mentioned name any criminal activity in Ghana, a Nigerian is involved in it one way or another and I said Nigerians are the number one foreigners in Ghanaian jail. All proven FACT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM. Most Nigerians in Ghana are NOT business men. The Nigerian drug dealer, the business man I spoke of http://thestreetjournal.org/2011/10/nigerian-businessman-jailed-in-ghana-for-heroin-trafficking/ The jails in Ghana Seven hundred and seven foreigners, mainly Nigerians, are serving various sentences in the country’s prisons.http://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/artikel.php?ID=208837&comment=0#com Prostitution in Ghana The sex workers who operate in Adum, a suburb of Kumasi in the Ashanti region, said they were disenchanted that younger and prettier girls from Nigeria are gradually taking over the sex business as they could hardly retain their usual customers.http://elombah.com/news/node/4210 A Nigerian living in Ghana input of the relationship between the citizen of Ghana and the Nigerians residing in Ghana. The truth is, if Ghana hopes to effectively challenge its own problems, its people must tell the naked emperor within each person the truth, stop seeing themselves as victims. True, Nigerian criminals have swarmed into Ghana, but the Ghanaian authorities can do something about that, and if they don’t, it’s their choice.http://www.switchedonnaija.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1368:living-in-ghana-a-nigerians-experience&catid=109:all-africa&Itemid=29 On the highlighted, I laugh tire If you’ve never traveled out of your village, don’t speak of things you know nothing of. Nigg@, Nigerian image in USA (where I live for your information) isn’t peachy at all rather it is closer to Africans impression of Nigerians. Drug-dealers, highest IQ African, terrorist and 419ers just to name a few are some of the common American impression of Nigerians. A rumor that’s been spreading about (from the citizen of USA and the other African taking refuge in USA) but isn’t proven yet is that half of African jailed in America are Nigerian (caught for drug-dealers and 419 most). In UK, the impression does not differ far and the unfortunately, the same rumor spreading. In Malaysia, the same http://allafrica.com/stories/201110040146.html In China, over 1000 Nigerians were jailed in the past month for drug-trafficking. Nigerians are detested globally and many Nigerians should be blamed and condemned for it. Do we do so? No? what do we do, we try to deny it and chest-beat without having anything productive to back us up thus the reason another rumor claiming Nigerians glorify criminal activity. They go to other nation, destroy the nation and what do we do? NOTHING but screams Conspiracy. Nigerians like you are pathetic. Una are pathetic. It is one of the main reasons I wish not to associate myself with Una. Pathetic |

Everyday on NL, Hausa vs Yoruba vs Igbo, insults and curses flying around. I see no difference between you guys here and the illiterates in remote villages that are easily incited to spark off ethnic clashes. @ this rate, y'all will teach your kids to grow up and be so hateful of the opposite tribe. SMH **leaves thread in utter disappointment** |

One_Naira: You accuse other of not being able to read yet it is clear you have a comprehension deficit. Below you wrote: Nigerians in Ghana (excluding the students) are running almost all of the criminal lifestyle in their nation. Now, how will any member of this forum, not suffering from your pitiful deficit, not conclude that you imply that Nigerians are the number 1 drug dealers in Ghana when you say Nigerians are "running almost all of the criminal lifestyle in their nation. Name it from drug trafficking, to 419, to prositution to armed robbery". Is this not plain old shamelessness from you? You tell a lie and invariably tell more to prop up your original tall tale. "What a tangled web we weave when at first we seek to decieve" How apt in your case. Furthermore, even the link you provided only expose your crass attempt at deception perhaps in a desperate attempt to make the crime fit the man by all means. Laughably you wrote: I also mentioned name any criminal activity in Ghana, a Nigerian is involved in it one way or another and I said Nigerians are the number one foreigners in Ghanaian jail. All proven FACT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM. Most Nigerians in Ghana are NOT business men. and provided this link to back up your poor effort at desperate falsification: http://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/artikel.php?ID=208837&comment=0#com My guy, that very link provides this: In a separate interview, the Head of Public Relations at the Ghana Immigration Service, ACP Francis Palmdeti, explained that Nigerians dominated the number of foreigners in the prisons probably because they constituted the highest number of expatriates in the country. Obvious that Nigerians may naturally be the highest number of foreigners in Ghana's jail when their population in the Nation is, by far, bigger than any other !!!! If there are 2 million Nigerians in Ghana compared to 10,000 Malians, then it is obvious to even the most unintelligent adult that , expectedly, more Nigerians will be in jail in Ghana than Malians. When you cannot even interprete statistics scientifically and logically, then it is fairly obvious you are a lost cause. You don't know nada about Ghana. Go and find out the real worth of Nigeria's investment in Ghana, related to total FDI (foreign direct investment), to note that many Nigerians in Ghana are not criminals as you ignorantly and self-hatingly assert. Abeg go siddon. Your are clearly tired and out of air. |

@Gbawe You're always spot on in any of your posts and analysis but you see some of these tribal bigots need to be ignored otherwise they'll soon drag you to make some comments you'll won't like to make. Allow them to continue to wallow in ignorance if they choose to be ignorant. |

Gbawe: ROFLMFAO I gave you link, I gave you fact, gave you something that backed up everything I said and every crime I mentioned and more: I gave you a Nigerian living in Ghana voice on the matter and what do I get in return? Nothing but a rant from a mad man. Come back when you got something Your brain waka go it seem. There are more Europeans in USA than Mexican, going by your logic for every foreign in the USA, Europeans should out number Mexican but yet the reality differs. Nigg@, go sit you dum6@ss down. If e dey pain you, let it pain you well well. Criminals in another man's land come dey shout "we are improving and the investing in land, making it big but the citizen of land are hating and creating conspiracy on us along with other Africans whom are saying the same thing about the ones in their country". I laugh tire. Are you finished with the conspiracy theory? |

icon aus: It is high time this get clarrified . Igbos felt betrayed because the agreement Ojukwu had with Awo was that once Igbos secide that the yoruba people would follow suit by declaring their own country but Awo turned around to do the opposite and went further to support the north in the war . No time ojukwu expected the yorubas to help him fight the war. This is an OLD thread but I can't pass without asking WHAT AGREEMENT did Ojukwu have with Chief Awolowo? When was it signed? Who were the parties? FYI and before you waste our time and parrot propaganda from ibo tribalist blind-bats: there WAS NEVER ANY AGREEMENT between Chief Awolowo and Ojukwu. Chief Awolowo was laying out strategic vision and providing leadership to "leaders of thought" in far away Ibadan and was not addressing ibos or Ojukwu. There was no internet or real time satellite communication in Nigeria in case Ojukwu was invited and tuned in via any of these technologies. Chief Awolowo, in fact, warned Ojukwu directly not to take the ruinions path, but he vaingloriously did and he (plus the ibos) paid the price for his hard headedness and stiff neckedness! |

Not arguing for or against the issue of there being an agreement, but if there was no internet or satellite communication back then to enable ikemba and awolowo communicate and agree how then did awolowo meet with ikemba to warn him? CyberG: |

Actually,there is always hatred of yorubas towards igbos.i equally know that there is a hatred of igbos towards yorubas' behaviour but i neva think that Igbos hate yoruba to the extent yoruba hate them.actually,igbos doesnt even hate the hausa.and through-out the time i stayed in lagos,all i have seen was yorubas trying to bully the igbos for reasons i know not.anybody that think that Igbos and yorubas are good friends in lagos is a lier.you'l knw that when a little offence which will attract little insult if its yoruba will bring death to you if u're igbo and ofcourse,for many time,the igbos have retaliated and such has caused some problems.The yoruba leaders even hate igbos and are using power to push igbos towards developing their villages and this they do by closing an already igbo-developed area in whatever name and giving out another land out.i can still recall the time when Yoruba man tried to claim a land at Ladipo and the fracas led to death of the man and the Ladipo was totally closed by Tinubu.is that how to treat such issue? To some extent,i see lagos's igbo problem with yorubas as Igbos defiance to be under the son-of-the soil.i remember one incident that brought a major argument then at computer village when a Yoruba guys angrily said that,'this igbo people are very rude and will never want to be ruled' and others echoed,'its true'.so,sometimes,i do think that Yoruba behaviour at lagos may actualy be a way to assert authority but which has often been met with stiff rebuff from igbos and for many times,has cause minor fracas...and For issue of bravely and cowardice,i dnt want to say that its an issue of tribe.i think its personal to the person that bears that trait but if we shall count bravely of some groups by their acts,i will be left to wonder if actually the tolerance exhibited by Yorubas towards other tribes within their territory, even when they are being pushed to the wall,is an act of bravely or cowardice.ofcourse,if any other tribe try that at onitsha or Aba or PH or towards the northerners,hell will be let loose.another thing is the issue of Yoruba military commanders during the war,the fact is,Nigeria-biafra war was fought and won by britain not any nigerian bravely but then,Yoruba commanders dealt decisively against civillians bt not much against rebellious soldiers.I will be left to wonder if the fleeing of Brig.Babafemi Ogundipe out of nigeria to Niger republic,even when the igbo troops resisted mutinous incursion to lagos,was an act of bravely.ofcourse,it was cowardice and it was that action that actually culminated to war.One thing thats clear is that,an igbo man can still trust Yoruba more than any other tribes and as such,the Yoruba-Igbo feud is not nonsensical. 1 Like |
