CAMEROONPRIDE: yet you are typing in English , right? in fact I have never seen u typing in Igbo or another African language.
Does a French village is against panafricanism? or Africanism? if that's even the case why don't u kick out Peugeot and Total? Being bilingual is never a waste of time of money .

Obiagelli: Apart from the exchange of cultures over the years btw osun and cote d voire, do you know what tourism is? You should visit the french cultural center in lagos and see what happens their or the french village here.

Gbawe: Does anyone expect anything different to what you contribute? I don't think so. Pathetic ignorance is something you can always be relied upon to display.

clefstone: Agha eli Osa 1. I respect ur maturity and knowledge. But lets look at it this way. Suppose Aboh was at the location of onitsha wud we hv been pro-biafra? Probably, but we r not at that location. Cud our location hv affected our integration with d Igbos? Yes. Location changes people's destiny. And if u read the history of Igbo, u'd realise tht the various clans tht make up the Igbo ethnic identity today were not united until during the English colonization. Matter of fact, thr was no Igbo before d 20th century. Unificatn of the Igbos was gradual nd as Nigeria became defined the people of the S/E, to strengthen their position saw d need to unite. If Aboh was truely united wit the Igbos before d civil war i bet u they wud hv laid their lives for the Biafra course, forget location. The reason y some 'igboid clans' pulled out of Biafra is not purely location but the Igbo ethnogenesis was stil in d process, Igbo was not fully defined. After the war it was easy to define the true Igbo by the scar of the war. Thr is no Igbo family today without dark war memories. It is imprinted in their DNA and is a strong definition of Today's Igbo. The war doesnt fully define the Igbos but it largely does. Sometimes i ponder, wud it hv been better if Abohs unified wit Igbos. Sometimes, maybe most times my answer is yes. Tht i know is ur position. But these tins r not just a 'o we want to be Igbos' thing. Many factors r involved nd most of those natural factors keep alienating u from them and uniting us wit our south south neighbours.

grandstar: nonsense article. nairaland alone proves this wrong. we also have jumia, konga, saharareporters etc. some have even been bought by foreigners. i have a billion dollar idea which i plan to launch in future and then sell. for now i dey chop beans.

clefstone: And a question for my broda, Mr Wesley, assuming an Aboh man becomes president tomorrow, do u think tht the Igbos will see him as an true Igbo president? note tht GEJ's name is Ebele nd more recently Azikiwe, does tht make him an Igbo president? I am a realist to the core and wud neva be heard supporting a union based on psychophancy, one tht wud definitely end in betrayal.
