[quote author=~Bluetooth link=topic=599966.msg7677205#msg7677205 date=1297003027]Only good ibos should be allowed,frustrated ones should not be admitted. [/quote]gbamm, i agree on that

afam4eva:
Was it when you travelled to the UK that you changed your name? Pls learn to talk sense. How come Indians, Chinese etc  in Britain don't change their names when they get to Britain or America.

and did he not tell you he was born in the uk

Dr. Nwankwo Tony Nwaezeigwe, a Senior Rersearch Fellow and Lecturer at the Institute of African Studies, University of Nigeria Nsukka founded the Igbo Peoples Congress in 1998. In this interview with Edozie Udeze and Joe Agbro Jr., he reiterated amongst other issues a need for  forging better relationship between Igbos and Yorubas

by Edozie Udeze
You are for the integration of Yoruba/Igbo relationship. What informed that?

During 1999 and 2001, I brokered confrontations between the Igbos and the Yorubas in Lagos. I signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Oduduwa Peoples Congress (OPC) and throughout the crisis between the OPC and Ijaws, the OPC and Hausas here in Lagos and the nation at large, we co-operated fervently. And I can say that I am an associate member of Odududwa Peoples Congress, OPC. They have taken me as a good friend, as a representative of the good rapport between the Igbos and the Yorubas. And through me, the OPC intervened in Yoruba/Igbo fracas in Lagos. We settled the matter at Apapa Wharf, Alaba Market, and other places. And since then, I found that the Igbos and Yorubas have been co-operating. We did it because we felt that we are under siege by the north, both politically, economically, and otherwise. If Yorubas and Igbos continue to divide themselves out of petty rivalry, then we are nowhere. It was my own move with OPC that prompted Ohaneze to go and make a move to Afenifere. But when I started, my Igbo brothers were accusing me as a sell-out, a saboteur. I said, look, you cannot tell me that it is fruitless to dialogue with Yoruba people. Eighty percent of the Igbo man’s business worldwide is situated in Yorubaland, especially Lagos. So, economic-wise, you have advantage of being at peace with them. If you go to Niger Bridge, go to Ninth Mile - the two gateways of the East to outer worlds, look at the vehicles that leave Niger Bridge to West and compare to the vehicles that leave Obulafor to the North. Nnamdi Azikiwe developed his political life here in Yorubaland before he moved to the east. So, you find out that we have every reason to work together.

and that's a sensable ,man

unlike people like afam that are daft and never do research before posting trash

afam4eva:
Lagos vigilante is different from OPC.

you really do not know what you are talking about, how many years have you spent in lagos that you are saying trash

OPC, Igbos Form Alliance
Lagos — The Oodua People's Congress (OPC) and the Igbo residents in Lagos have formed an alliance.

The alliance which was brokered between the Dr. Frederick Fasehun- led OPC and the Igbo People's Congress (IPC) headed by Mr. Nwankwo Nwaezigwe is meant to cement unity, mutual co-operation and understanding between the Yoruba and Igbo residents of Lagos.

thank you jason

but there are igbos in OPC that joined willingly without this fasehun union

they are actually in OPC willingly

Abagworo:
Alj Harem is very right.I know some Igbos in OPC.The truth is that people refer to Vigilante groups in Lagos as OPC which is quite different from the real OPC.It is more appropriate to claim that there are some Igbo members in the Lagos Vigilante.

i know, but i think most vigilante groups in lagos have connection to OPC one form or the other

when i was in lagos, the street i was living in was protected by some vigilante groups some with igbo origin and they claim to be connected to OPC.

afam4eva:
Always spewing rubish because you want people to start bearing yoruba names. You must not adopt any name neither must you learn how to speak a language before you'll have the full right of a place. As long as you were born there you're a citizen.

brother stop deceiving yourself, it is annoying i tell you

at this age and time some of my igbo brothers are deceiving themselves,.,. sad indeed

seanet02:
Illogical Ranting. Ibos will never be allowed to Join ODUA PEOPLES CONGRESS. We are not interested in selling our Heritage like Massob did by dropping their Agitation because of GEJ hard currency. Thank you, go and join Bakassi Peoples Congress or Bakassi Boys!!! Whichever your destiny picks.

afam4eva:
The MUMU don come again.  Na lie go kill you. Why will an Igbo person want to join OPC.

and why can't an igbo man join OPC, if he has lived there all his life and he his now an indigene like you aways claim, why can't he join OPC

just like the head of awera was a yoruba man at once

Today one of my friends in lagos told me about some igbos in lagos that have join OPC.

To the yorubas and igbos on this forum, what do you think about that ?

KnowAll:
You are a citizen of the state where your father is born. @ poster u are a citizen of Lagos provided u can speak the Yoruba language. I believe your father who was born and bred in Lagos should be able to speak the Yoruba language, that makes u a second generation Lagosian that can speak the language.

However if you were born in lagos and soon afterwards you moved to Port harcourt or Kaduna and u can speak the local lingo in those places but cannot speak your father's first language which is Yoruba then it would be difficult to claim Lagos.

How can u be a Lagosian without been able to speak the language. You are more likely to claim those places u grew up, since u would have gone to school with citizens of those states who can vouch u are one of them.

Meanwhile your Grand father's state of Delta at anytime and  any-moment in your life u to claim it back even if u cannot speak the language. So you have 3 choices.

gbammmm

best responds so far

even me, i had to learn igbo and yoruba to fit in those places i have lived in

my stay in anambra was not so good because the igbo language is a bit difficult but i am getting there

i think i understand yoruba enough to pass me through

fstranger6:
Tinubu was never a drug seller, he was a drug baron through

two different things Alhaji!

ok thank you my friend

but he is involved in hard drug abi,

afam4eva:
This tinubu thinks he owns Yorubaland. How can you choose a running mate for candidate. You can only suggest. Ribadu has the final say.

thank you, does that support tinubu in the name of yorubaland are big mumu's i tell you

i am one that loved awolowo but tinubu is not even 1% of that great man

it is sad that yorubaland has been hijacked by a drug seller

fstranger6:
This Ribadu sef, after calling Tinubu a thief, he now wants his influence

You cant eat your cake and have it!

thank you jo

please tell your brothers

babapupa:
What's Tinubu's wife and the people you listed got to do with federal roads? What about the people responsible for the roads. Tinubu is not even an elected official. Talk about misplaced anger.

sorry but is it only federal roads that are bad, what about state roads when he was in power from 1999 to 2007

tell me

and please do not tell me about fashola (he is good)

Muza:
we are in big trouble,we seriously need to collect back our country from these animals

i tell you they are animals

Ibime:
Any Nairalander who is hungry should proceed to any meeting that GEJs campaign team hold in his ward. My friend just spoke to his bros in Naija and his bros said they are dishing out N3000 per head at these functions. He has already collected his N3000 naira at his locality and is planning to collect N3000 at the next locality, so I advise hungry Nairalanders to do same, afterall its your money.

kai

nigeria is finished

i still the laugh oo

tinubu is going down even in SW

any yoruba person that loves tinubu is a big mumu for life,.,.,. fact

sad indeed

nigerian roads

and our leaders have there kids abroad were they drive on good roads

while us back home are driving on roads that needs blood

driving on bridges that will collapse anytime


people like tinubu fielding his wife as a candidate while people like pat utomi, donald duke, dosumu and Sanusi are literally begging for positions; others like remi tiunbu, sade tiunbu, bianca ojukwu, alams are getting this positions on a plater of gold.

Shame on Nigeria and the people of Nigeria. Another life has been taking

the money meant for the road is sent to a 17 yrs boy in usa or uk to use on clubs and expensive things

Nigeria wake up, from yoruba in akure to igbo in onisha to hausa in kebbi to kanuri in borno to ijaw in balysea

our leaders do not care what ethnic group you are from or whether you die or live so long as they get there own share of the national cake. then it is good for the go !!!

enough said

wake up

^^^^^^

you have started with your madness mumu

that is france flag turn 90 degress

you better use agbo before they take you to ifa for rituals mad man

ifele:
There is no Oduduwa. His real name is Kitan Korah. He was a foreign leader who conquered the black omo inugbo jinjinjin so as to set up an empire for himself and his sons. Oduduwa: means you are not black come (and fight us). Yorubaland will never be called Odua becos this is racist and wrong. The local or real name of Yorubaland is Ife Ile. That was the first settlement of Yoruba people among the black jungle folks. Ifeile must rise again. We are sick and tired of Nigeria.

Ife Gori Otare. Ife ododo Ile Aye.

alj harem shut yur trap up

you see how mad you sound

i have leaved in anambra for years

if igbos start there madness, i will go beck to borno, i will not say i am now an indigene because i am half igbo

i am a settler in lagos just like most nigerians

if OPC start killing in lagos today, i will be back in borno the next 24 hours

Muza:
Please don't call this guy President,A president that rules for 30 yrs is not a President,hes a Pharaoh.
And remember Pharaohs don't step down,they die on the throne.  

Go Gyptians

Pharaoh

bashr4:
igbos dont have unrealistic dream ,they just want conducive enviroment to manufacture or do their buisness and live their life comfortably like a normal human should. presidency does not benefit any tribe ,it only benefits bunch of elites and the white man that will enjoy all the looted money deposited in his bank

you could not have said it better

kettykin:
[b]Yoruba unification will spell good for the Yoruba race, how ever what really do Yorubas want. [/b]The niger delta want resource control , the igboss want their biafran dream actualized , the north wants to rule and have a political advantage over other others.

It seems Yorubas don't have any defnite goal in nigeria as at the moment, that could be why they are not presently focused on any thing and cannot speak from one side of the mouth only

I really doubt that because the yorubas have a war history like no other, i mean interethnic war. Until the yorubas view a common enemy that's the day they are unitied but if they form there own country, there will be no common enemy par say then the interethnic war will start
