Why will a whole ethnic group support Stealer Oduah on her [looting] of the national treasury, just bacause '' SHE IS OUR DAUGHTER''.

How shallow can that be. They contributed immensely to GEJ's aborted 2nd term bid.

KwoiZabo:
Lagos that has earned more than dubai in the past 16 years. Onitsha and Enugu has better road network and pipe borne water than Lagos. U guys are just celebrating mediocrity.

Very funny, Lagos earning more than Dubai? You must be high on cheap coke?

Onitsha, that slum of a city? abeg why am i even descending so low to discuss with this shallow one. Do you think NL looks like your beer parlour or village square where you can be lying to them and your f00lish audience will be nodding their heads like agama lizards.

If Enugu is better, tell your people to relocate there with immediate effect. You wish, Joker.

Long live Jimi ''Chukwuemeka'' Agbaje the Emperor of Arochukwu and Governor-General of Alaigbo.

Jimi ''Chukwuemeka'' Agbaje for Emperor of Arochukwu and Governor General of Alaigbo.

italo:
Guy, Oduduwa did not fall from heaven. He came from Benin. Yorubas had to resort to that childish lie because they ashamed to admit that their god was a Bini man.

Oduduwa has no meaning in Yoruba.

Bini man ko, Bini god ni.

you need to read up. Read up on oduduwa, oromifaa people, cushites and aksum in ethiopia.

he is the Emperor of Arochukwu and Governor General of Alaigbo now.

JK is just kidding.

lygn19:
yes now, and igbos are now smarter... we ve been hating northerners since yet nothing came out, things have changed. I can sense fear as u read my words, u know wat am saying is true...

Y1bos have been supporting North from time immemorial.

Azikiwe - Balewa

Shagari - Ekwueme

OBJ, being a northern candidate in 1999.

Humphrey Nwosu discontinued the announcement of 1993 election result.

Arthur Nzeribe got court injunction to annul June 12.

Daniel Kanu was spear heading Youth Earnestly Asked for Abacha YEAA 5million man match for the devil incarnate Abacha, just like Ifeanyi Ubah deceived GEJ with TAN.

Humphrey Nwosu never finished the announcement of election result in 1993. So OP stop lying. He never had Jega's kind of stealth liver, to dare the consequence and tow the path of honour for his nation.

Arthur Nzeribe sought a court injunction o annul June 12. Op do not tell us what is not here.

Igbos play the politics of now, others play the politics of the future right from now.

JK is Just Kidding. He was bound to lose ab initio.

PDP for Abia.

We want continuity.

PDP doing all to contain their losses in SW.

GBTYO:
You voted Buhari and now expect everyone else in the south to do same.

Lest I remind you the SouthSouth is still solidly PDP why then do you always fight the Igbos alone whose party affiliations cut accross APGA, PDP and APC? Rochas is an APC governor so also is Ngige where both men have strong followings in the SE.

Other than Edo, no other state in the SouthSouth region can be said to have a strong APC prescence. Even Amaechi knows that Rivers people will never vote the APC.

I remember during the runup to the presidential elections how the SW and NOrth designated the GEJ administration as an Igbo government. Even Nyako once wrote an open letter to the President whereby he asked the Igbos to call their son Jonathan to order.

For some reason the SouthSouth was not to be offended other than the Ijaws since the APC still needs ND oil to manage their useless Nigeria.

Now that the presidential elections have come and gone why are you Tajus rubbing in the loss of GEJ as a win against the Igbos where it was in the SouthSouth Jonathan recorded the highest win and turnover votes?

As a ND citizen I will like to remind you in the SW to look at the SS as you most newly acquired enemies.

Unlike the Igbos we in the SS don't need Lagos or any part of Nigeria to survive. My state Delta offers any Job description to any able bodied and willing man who truly wants to earn a descent wage.

So please, kindly include us in the ND as your new enemies alongside the Igbos and the Ijaws.

There are several ethnic nations in SS and you do not have the right to speak for the whole of ND. Mind you Itshekiris, our dear cousins, are in the same ND.

We are not interested in your oil. Ondo has oil and we have reserve in Lagos and Ogun. Drink your oil and shut up. You are still living in the 19th century.

Countries have gone beyond oil -- what is the oil production capacity of China, Israel, Germany, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Canada, New Zealand, Australia etc.

Wake up dude, the name of the game now is human capacity an not oil. Countries are specializing in IT -- Qatar, India, Tourism -- UAE, Education -- Canada, Military hardware -- Belarus, Ukraine, Israel, MEdical --- Indi etc you are still here crying over oil that a substitute is already being developed against.

meforyou1:
How can benin be subject of Ife when oduduwa was prince of benin?

Indeed.

No wonder the word ''OBA'' sneaked into Edo's lexicon.

meforyou1:
Oba of lagos, mr akiolu, is a confirmed benin empire subject

And the whole of Benin are subjects of Ooni of Ife.

Therefore, what Benin owns, Ooni is the owner. By deduction, nah Ooni get Benin, na Benin get Lagos. This is equals to Ooni owning lagos.

Equation solved.

AustineE1:

note;you forgot number four which is;
4.income Base--Niger-Delta.
true,it ended when your Awolowo fought a genocidal war against ndi-igbo with his benefactors from the other side and insisting every part of Nigeria must remain one.Now it is one and no regrets..dont forget when you all where shouting with your Hausa masters one niajeriya!!!

If Ironsi did not cancelled the regions and amalgamated power at the centre, the northerners you are referring to won't be as powerful as you perceived them to be today. Typical of an Iboman not to respect others and always trying to lord it over others,, Ironsi cancelled the regions, for the Almighty Ibo to be ruling them all from the centre, after a coup of ibos that he benefited from.

Others are smarter and wiser, just that they do not make noise. That led to to your resounding defeat and drawing you back into "One Nigeria".

AustineE1:

on a lighter note,do you think that if Igbos decides to leave Lagos and a meeting of cessation of ties was called by UN and Yorubas asked to pay Igbos back money for their investments and other landed properties,do you think that a whole life time,generation to generation, will be enough for the entire yoruba race to refund igbos back?the answer is No!
This then will mean that Yorubas will perpetually be in constant servitude to Igbos.

You have an over estimated view of yourselves.

If you say you guys make most noise Nd brag over little things, fine I will agree.

Saying you have more investments without facts and figures to show is nothing but a make-me-happy story you to tell to yourselves to make you feel good.

If Igbos leave Lagos today, that is when you will realise how inconsequential and insignificant they are within this Lagos. Have you forgotten that Lagos is the capital of West Africa.

AustineE1:

...and you forgot to add to your list that they own they houses you live in...hahaha be mindful of quit notice from your landlord.

Emeka iyke comes to mind.

AustineE1:

Mr 'olowole proffessor'as its always common with your people to claim more educated even when the facts are glaring,it is interesting that you know you cant claim Lagos but yet you are defending known thiefs like Tinubu who claim to be more Lagos than true Lagos indigenes.....the serial looter Tinubu is from Iragbiji in OSUN state,Akin Ambode is from llaje ONDO state period,i dont know why you are moulding a mountain out of this simply fact.TRUTH IS CONSTANT.

They can even be from Ajaokuta, it is immaterial. Nigeria is a map drawn by Lord Lugard.

Before Nigeria, we do not have the artificial created state dividing us. We were all yoruba with

1. Same progenitor -- Oduduwa

2. Political HQ -- Oyo

2. Spiritual HQ -- Ile ife.

3. Military Garrison -- Ibadan

Was anybody invited to come to Lagos, be it the British, FGN or Ibos?

You all came to see the aquatic splendour and your were fixated.

The British have found their way back to UK and FGN to Abuja. Any sad Ibo over Lagos being a yorubaland, can also head back to land of gully erosion where they came from.

Are ibos the only ones in Lagos. Don't we have Hausas, Edos, itshekiris, anang, efik, fulani, gwari, nupe, bariba, tiv, igala etc in the same Lagos.

If they are not trouble makers and finders, why their fixation on Lagos? Do we even know anybody called Igbo in SW till 1930? No.

Has Lagos been thriving before the arrival of the first igboman in Lagos? Capital YES.

Did they made appreciable contribution towards what Lagos is today. A definite and capital YES.

Were they the only one? Capital NO


End of Discussion.

Olaolufred:
[size=14pt]CALABAR- BEING THE FIRST CAPITAL OF NIGERIAN STATE,

CAN ALSO BE CALLED A NO-MAN'S-LAND.

SINCE SOME NIGERIA'S WEALTH MUST HAVE BEEN SPENT THEN IN DEVELOPING IT.

I BELIEVE THE LOGIC MUST BE FAIR TO ALL.[/size]

Lokoja was the first, Calabar was the 2nd, Lagos 3rd and Abuja 4th.

No body has a problem with Lagos being called a no man's land, provided all the mentioned cities are also declared so officially.

The best JK can be are:

1. The Emperor of Arochukwu

2. The Governor General of Alaigbo.

JK is Just Kidding

IGBOSON1:


^^^There you are going off on a tangent again!

I can see you've been listening to a lot of anti-Igbo sentiment lately; the effects of being a e-warrior on Nairaland i suppose! You've been listening to and and accepting a lot of the revisionism and bile put out there to justify the wickedness committed against Easterners in general and Ndigbo in particular; you want to satiate your conscience that all the wickedness committed against us was all actually justified!

Can you show me where Ndigbo got together as a people and decided to sanction the killing of anybody? Why then were there revenge killings in the north that didn't discriminate between soldiers and civilians? You may argue that the northern soldiers who went out on revenge attacks and hacked down thousands of Igbo soldiers in cold blood was justified....i being someone with a conscience wouldn't agree with you but i'd leave it at that since they were soldiers; but why then go on from there and target tens of thousands of innocent civilians as well?

All that rejoicing and mocking you accuse Igbos of that you say went down when Sadauna et al were murdered are all blatant revisionist lies told to justify the wickedness that went on in the north after the first coup! Since when have they (you know who) needed any reason to go out on a killing spree!?

Ironsi made many mistakes, but the hatred in you would always want to link that to an Igbo-sanctioned agenda -like i said earlier- to justify the madness you guys have been engaged in ever since! Pray, if you say his unification decree was an Igbo agenda, can you tell me how this would have benefited the Eastern Region which at the time had 50% of the proceeds from oil exploration and exploitation? And if you say said decree was a wicked act, how come the northerners sustained it when they seized power, and were still operating some form unitary system of gov't even to this day! During the last confab, who were the people kicking against resource control, increased derivation, a smaller federal/central gov't and devolution of more powers to the states?.....Answer this question and you'll begin to discover how deceitful and two-faced you nasty lot really are and how this country is nothing but a joke!

Like i said before, Ojukwu must have thought he was fighting with human beings who would respect the rules of engagement and the Geneva Convention; he must have thought it would be a fair man-to-man fight, and this is where i reckon he was a bit naive! I unlike him have no doubts that i'm sharing the same country with a group of people whose intentions, xenophobia, bigotry and hatred would put even Hitler to shame, and i'd approach any fight with these animals with that in mind and be prepared for the worst kind of shamefaced deception, usurpation of rights and wickedness any depraved mind could possibly conjure!

You call Biafra a fraud?......What then would you call Nigeria!

We have debated this for almost 5years and I am not ready to waste my time on it. I.will definitely not allow some shallow minds to.always keep giving their own tales by moonlight, make-me-feel-good and happy review.

I really missed Katsumo on NL Politics Section. Derided Gull was another knowledgeable mind on the Biafra side of the divide.

Nigeria is a country formed and recognised by UN. Biafra was a pet project of one bearded sissy coward, that dragged people that were not of it's ethnicity, against their will, into his imagined fraud of a country, out of greed for those people's oil.

The war was basically about oil and not about any killing.

[quote author=VickJames post=32555740]

Good one but your statement wasn't entirely true.

Festus Okotieboh and Ironsi were part of the people to be killed. Ironsi was the head of the military then, so he had people to guard him more than the other rulers. Okotieboh was killed who was from South East/south south of today.------- Stop lumping SS and SE. It is dubious. Is okotiehboh an Iboman? No. No wonder he was killed.

Azikiwe was not with them when the massacre was made like Awolowo was in prison when the whole thing started. --- Zik knew a coup was coming up because his cousin is the ring leader and he went on an unending medical trip from.UK to the carribean.

Led by the igbo officer but with other regions as supports. We had a yoruba and an Hausa as part of the coupists. So, you mean the people taken to kill Tafawa Balewa were igbos? No, there were northerners there too. --- Who were the officers that gave the order? Ibos. Simple.

For your information, Nigerians begged the Military to disrupt the democratic system where all these people were eating our and buy fleets of cars abroad, so the young soldier took the matters into their hands. -- no evidence of this.

Ironsi wasn't killed because he escaped death and ordered soldiers in Lagos to mount guard for him and he chased the coupists out of the capital. He was afraid all the time he was in power because the coupists have all ran to the north for protection, some out of the country. --- pure fallacy. The coupists were largessing in SE. They were meant to be in prisoned, but it is a known fact that were walking around freely and living large. If Irons was not part of the plot, he should just have asked the most senior minister to take over. The ministers had a meeting after hearing of Balewa's and appointed Dipchima to take over, which Ironsi rejected after consulting with the CJ who was an Iboman too.

Making sounds of machine guns? Oh please! - yes it was fact.

The Nigerian nation did not feed Nigeria. How sensible will a country feed another people he is fighting against, they only stopped the supplies of food. --- FGN fes Biafra and that is a fact. Food were being air lifted through red cross. Nigeria later stopped and effected the blockade of the sea.

If the Hausa kill 30,000 yorubas, you will embrace the survivors and continue with one country see that they didn't want to stop at nothing to exterminate the whole tribe in the north. --- I never celebrated the killing of the ibos in the north and I will never. Will you also.embrace a group of people that masterminded the killing of your leader that you defer to and even see as a god. SO was calm because Akintola's murder was seen as good riddance to rubbish. If it has been Awolowo that was killed, be rest assured the response of SW would have even been more than that of North.

15 mercenaries making Nigeria shiver? --- whatever. The same way Nigeria used Arab mercenaries, Biafra used mercenaries from the scandanivian countries. Just the same way we are using same from SA today.

Lmao! The soldier were getting fatter, did u see the faces of the soldiers who fought the war after they finished fighting it? ---- Yes I saw Ojukwu and Achebe ' faces. They were never lean.

The feeding of Biafra was not the problem before Nigeria asked cameroun to block Bakassi. ------ you should have done your diplomacy homework very well to ensure Cameroon will not block Barassie, rather that dissipating energy on boasting of having the best army on planet earth.


That is my response to.your submission.
