anyway people better start getting use to it

@Obiagu1, thanks immensely for your post. Ezeuche has not been involved in this thread yet Chinenye chose to insult him and call him NMOGHO. Before Andrew Uwe's post, Egobiambu had posted earlier, yet ChinonyeN in his inglorious stupidy chose to counter Andrew Huweh. Before I joined Nairaland, I sometimes do not know either to weep or to laugh at most of his post. Anyway, am here now and it might be war between us if he continues with his anti Igbo antics. Watch out.

ezeuche shattap

did u read his post at all before u jump to conclusion

and why should u have war with our brother when clearly he has his own views which he did not beg for any one to support

Obiagu1:
^^^

Sorry for you, iti boribo. When you take a sentence from a short post out of context, what happens when the post is long like PhysicQEDs?

READ the whole line.

do not feel sorry for me

because i am igbo also and i can contribute to igbo trends

and yes i read the whole post

yorubas can not go anywhere

why would they want to leave there brothers in borno

Your 'respect' is worth 3 strips of dried cassava peel.

Obiagu1:
@ chinenye, the time you stop replying to, correcting, educating, interpreting, countering, analysing an Igbo man's posts on anything pertaining to Ndigbo, that's when you'll stop getting attacks from Igbos.

You can channel your energy towards non-Igbos. You can choose to support or not support those non-Igbos and believe me, no Igbo will bother you.

Both you are a specialist in countering what an Igbo says.

If I could block your name and stop seeing your posts like it is on Facebook, I won't hesitate to do that.

u are very very silly for saying that

why are u igbos very tribalistic,,,,,, why should he channel his energy to non-igbo why

NIGERIA: Foolish Ghana,is the answer not 11?

GHANA: You are lucky,i though you were going to miss it.


, these are my exact my thoughts on this thread!!!

oh boy

ChinenyeN:
.  But, you're new, and I don't have beef with you, in particular. So no wahala. One thing you must know though, Oturugo, is that I don't share in Igbo people's current orthodox views, and the sooner you learn to realize that, the smoother our relationship here on NL will be.

swoosh:
Many people died on both sides. In my opinion what needs to be done has already been done- reconstructuon of both sides, reintegration of all into one Nigeria with equal rights and pardon of Biafran soldiers amongst other things. I honestly think we should forget about this and not further hurt the feelings of those who lost loved ones in the ugly war

stop on

doublekay:
Dont you think our kids have the right to know what happened to their fathers from a more genuine point of view (school)
or do you prefer them picking it up from the streets and probably a biased piece of it  

and dont you also think that if the growing get to know the real truth about the war and also come to know that people that lost there head to the war is also been acknowledged  they wouldnt view the war as tribal and also they wouldnt want such to repeat itself

Dont you think so?

do u know that the truth would mean the igbo will be hated again

do u

don't u think that if u or a teacher tell a northerner that a coup of igbo soldiers kill our spiritual leader, do u not think that there will be riot in the north

or if u tell the yorubas and edo people that igbo soldiers try invading to lagos, do u not think the the igbos in schools in lagos would be stigmatised

or if u tell the igbos that the northerners kill them and the yorubas stoped them from invading there land, do u not think that there will be stigmatization in the east about the northerner or yoruba

i believe that it is best forgotten or maybe taught in the university  when people are more mature and educated to act right

in ur dreams

i do not know wwhat is wrong with this yoruba people sometimes

doublekay:
From the Look of our discussion so far and from the link below cant we see that the war was as result of political greed from both sides.

And my question still Remains
should the memories of people that lost their lives in this political war be left to go down the drain?

yes greed of both sides

no they can be remembered every year but it should not be taught in schools or to people under 18 or 16 because people still have feelings about the war

His company collects taxes on behalf of Lagos, it appears. The 15% fee the article claims seems way too high for this service, if true, probably 5% is a better rate. And it is of course lame to give the contract to yourself, or a company you indirectly control.

But I dunno if this quite qualifies as "stealing."

so if it is not qualified as stealing what is it

chyz:
You cant have a seaport in calabar genius. Did you not read what we were saying above? Better yet, do you not have a simple map?Lol. There are igbos in bayelsa and Akwa Ibom too so i am alright with that. Seems like all you are worried about is ethnicity. sorry, you need to learn about the SS and its ethnic areas and the people.

i mean cross river

must there be igbos in bayelsa before u can call it ur seaport

how do u think, must ethnicity play part in seaport also

i know there are no igbos in balysa and cross river but does that mean seaport built in those areas will not serve it's purpose

so just because it not in a core igbo state, it means ethnicity is in it

chyz grow up

chyz:
The people essentially are just asking for one sea port in the area, preferably Rivers because its just about in the middle; however, they were refused.Why? Because of ethnicity. Pure dumbness. This is what led to these different areas fighting for ports.

and why would ethnicity play a part in the country's development

why do u talk of rivers state, do u know that it is full of esturties which has low water level

i believe balysa or calabar would be perfect  but rivers NO

chyz:
The mentality you have is why we Igbo deal with on a day to day bases.That's why people like me will continue to push for our liberation behind close doors. Lagos is not the only state on the sea. It cost money to move products all the way from lagos to the other side of the country. Rivers and Akwa Ibom are on the sea as well as bayelsa so why do they not have a sea port when it is economically going to benefit their states? have you ever asked yourself that question? If the state benefits from it then so will the country.It's basic Macro economics.

what mentality

did i not say balysea state

i ask again what metality

do u think i do not know that it cost money to transport from lagos to other part of the country

is that not why i said balysa state, but i do not support wasting the country's money on a river, it is simply not pratical

[quote author=Musiwa, link=topic=566452.msg7322863#msg7322863 date=1292200231]I dont think you get me. I am not a person, who is interested in other people business. The only thing I am interested in is the satellite pictures and how it affect nigeria and after people life. That why you dont find me go anywhere except this section and the only thing I talk about. And have to have solution.

It is not my business what omisore or Bola ige do, I dont talk about what I dont know. I do not want to accuse anyone because I know they frame people in Nigeria from my experience. So I dont get involve.

My own point is Jonathan who have been decieveing the Yorubas. You dont want to talk about that because you are only interested in dividing yorubas , so that Your man Jonathan would win, that all you are concern about even at people risk.

And to be honest with you, I dont give a shit1 , if Jonathan is president or not. If he refuse to correct the error to avoid a civil war, I believe they should impeachment him before the election
if he put his own selfish interest above the life of Nigerian. Dont get me wrong I am not saying he should leave. But he has to do what is Godly in this situation.

I have read some people saying Nigeria unity by force and some even claim God told them. Those people are liars. Because God has a principle and God principle is base ONLY by the word of God and not the word of any man. And the word of God says thy shall not kill. And if anything would lead to the death of people. Either the person is an Igboman or hausa or fulani. You do everything legally possible to avoid it. This is what the word of God says.

And at this point the Only thing that can make sense to safe the life of the people of Nigeria , without a civil war is the break up Nigeria. Because God said thy shall NO kill. Some men of God may no care for the bible becaus they are more concern about the Unity of Nigeria over the lifes of Nigerian.

And if you watch Jonathan statement of Facebook , when he said the unity and economy of nigeria is more important to him than anything, then it tell you , his heart is not in the right place.

Nigeria is a creation not of God but of Britain. Any man of God who tell you nigeria is a creation fo God is not be honest with You. I can be a nigerian today and a citizen of America tomorrow. I dont define myself by immigration paper. Your citizenship can change at anytime. God did not write your citizen on your forehead.

I know in Nigeria men of God deceive people. Jonathan has to ask himself, what does God want from him Jonathan Goodluck. his God wanting him for his own selfish purpose or him to save the life of others.

Between me and you , you know northerners are not going to agree, either are yorubas going to agree. So we do the right thing. What if Jonathan now refuse and go ahead and conduct the election, win and the military take over government from him and kill him. Is Jonathan Goodluck who just got kill going to be president. All this pastor would not affected by military coup. Femi Odetola would not be affect, dangote is know for welcoming every new government in power. He would just say dont mind that Jonathan jo. But he don die.

My brother break the nonsense and All this people talking about nigeria by force are only interested in thier own selfishness. If you find any pastor tell you that. Classify that Pastor from today as a 419 pastor.

God has not told any pastor that Nigeria should be united by force, It is only a 419 pastor that would say "MY God just told me that. " God is not a God of Confusion. He is a God that obey his own word. And his word is clear that shall not KILL. and this satellite pictures has shown, there would killing .


tell those pastors my name, that i said break it , so that there shall be no killing in Nigeria because God said, thy shall no kill. He is not a God of confusion and his word is greater than any Pastor or prophet.

Quote my name, that I said , that GOD GOD GOD said, that thy shall not KILL. God is greaater than any pastor or prophet.[/quote]u have started again becomrich

have u started going crazy again

Tinubu is being paid a whopping 2 billion naira / month from the state coffers; for what exactly?

Someone else would have eventually come up with a way to internally generate those revenues. Tinubu is bad for Yoruba land

I'd rather have Kofo Bucknor in charge.

The guy is a thief who relies mostly on touts and area boys to exert his influence in the most abominable way possible

gbam he is really bad for the yoruba people

i believe that, if only funsho willam was alive or any other person even from edo or itsekiri person can do the job so long as he has one form of yoruba heritage and he love the SW people an puts his ambition for power second, then he can be a leader

tinubu is using the idea that he is uniting the yorubas but instead he is only looking for power at the fedral level

lagos is one

i think they can do one in bayelse state also

but spending money on river just because he want to igbos to be happy is wrong

let not be trablistic or dumb here, lets do with is best for the country

True. The question should be why are they rushing for a RIVERSIDE port and also could it be because Akwa Ibom and Rivers State does not have a SEASIDE port.

now u are talking

why wold they spend money on the river when there is a sea port

you yoruba people have no shame or what so ever

so tinubu a drug trafficker and a fraudster is yoruba leader

has he even done 1% of what awolowo or fashola has do to the yoruba people

get your acts right

I don't get this. You want to build a Free Trade Zone, but you build it not on a SEASIDE port (like Lagos), but on a RIVERSIDE port. And not a deep, wide river, but a shallow one. You also don't spend any of your own money to improve the river so that large ships can profitably bring goods there. And somehow all of this is someone else's fault?

gbam dapobear stop on

why would anyone build a port on a river when there is a seaport

Abagworo:
Calabar as a city is the 2nd most beautiful city in Nigeria after Abuja.It has a lagoon like Lagos and was once the capital of Nigeria like Lagos.The bane of Calabar's viability is rooted in deliberate marginalisation by successive Nigerian governments till date.Anyone into importation can easily tell you that FG refused the usage of Calabar ports for the importation of almost all but few goods into the country.There is no concrete reason given for this.Even tank farms in PortHarcourt and Calabar lay fallow throughout OBJ's regime until they were allowed to import under GEJ.That is just the simple reason the ports are not working.Government should allow all ports to be used equally.You can't say all textiles,cars,heavy equipments,chemicals and agricultural products must be imported through Lagos and expect the others to thrive.

wrong

why should there be free importation from any port in nigeria, i ask?

if there are different ports in a country, each port has to serve specific purpose so as to stop the importation of illegal things easily

the reason for the government decision during obj time was because MEND and MASSOP which are secession groups which means that importation of weapons would be easy for this groups just like what happened in lagos some few weeks ago

i believe that the international airport in enugu should be working but port harcount no unless they are watched carefully, we do not want riots in the country again, do we

importation of textile should be do in lagos since that is were most people buy there clothes
