sulad82i:
Did u read the message or just the topic? Cos for me this is way too long and I dont think i have the patience to read it  

oyinda.:
interesting essay format. but what does generalissim mean first of all?

the story is about producing another yoruba leader just like awolowo and mko abiola

obj fought to be the leader and was having breakfast in the alaffin palaces but lost

who will be the yoruba leader,,,this person must make an oath not to betray the yoruba people etc

isale_gan2:
Your signature says "bleep ojukwu." mukina sees all.

and if my signature is bleep ojukwu, how does that affect you

i am igbo and i do not like ojukwu,so you want to force me to like someone that killed my uncles NO

i know mukina sees all and just because i have my views on ojukwu just like other do not like ibb,,,,obj and co,,does not mean i should change my personality,

there are alot of us igbos even on nairaland that do not like ojukwu for the pain he has put us thru

omongbatic:
Who dash monkey banana?
He is a thief and because his people are thieves too, they worship him
Like thief, like thief. o pari.

although when it was turning tribal i condemned it and it stopped

mukina2, pls can you unban alj harem now,,,,,,i have been a good boy na

and a merry christmas and happy new year

tymohs:
Spiting the country is the first step to finding a lasting solution to our problems. Let us divide this country along the six geo-political regions.
Any other idea or solution will not work until we have divided the country

and how did you come to that conclusion pls do not be a mumu like your predecessors

dapobear=ekudapo

this guy amazes me with the level of his intelligence

lagbaja20:
NO,

Modakekes speak the Oyo version of the language while Ifes speak a different dialect.

ok noted,,i will edit it now but you get the point i am driving at

lagbaja20:
The highlighted is false
Everything else, incoherent as it may seem, I agree with

lagbaja20,, are they not of the same dialect ,,,, pls i may be wrong

lagbaja20:
Your people will never be relevant in Nigeria.
You call Yoruba Lazy? How did we become so powerful in nigeria?

that is very good,,,,

i hear some people say yorubas are lazy but that is far from the truth,,,without the yorubas/igbos nigeria will just be like sudan or even worse,,,,,,i know this because i have been to lagos, abuja, port harcount, ibadan, anambra,, borno state and i have seen thing ,, but also we northerners protect the country so you have to give us that,,,,,,,,,,c'mon

Mobinga:
Trust me, I don't engage in tribalism.  I never knew such a thing existed till I read some of these lunatics post thrash. What's the point?

when am i tribal  i am half igbo half kanuri,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,my name is Alhaji Abdulharem Uche ciroma so why do you call me tribal to my own people ,,,all i do is correct them so they just use there brains and not use "we igbos will defend ourselves even if we are wrong"  i am igbo but i will not defend my people if they do something wrong unlike some posters here

i repeat, nigeria does not need to split

all we need to do is address the issue and our differences,,,,,and talk about how to make it better

why should nigeria split when there will be new mini nigerians in our respective republics

i here others saying that oduda and biafra do you people actually think yorubas will treat igbos the same way

or do you think igbos will treat yorubas the same way when they still call themselves as [size=16pt]osu(outsider)[/size]

lets even say we form 250 nations,,,, do you know that even as small as ile-ife(oyo state yoruba) is about few square kilometre even to streets they have not yet agreed with each other

for example ife and modakeke war
this 2 group are just a street away from each other,,,but they just do not agree because of some believe ife people believe that modakeke are visitors   senseless innit

yeah they are of same family of odudua and they syill fought 2003

so odudua republic is a flaw 

we igbos are just jokers  ;Dabout biafra when we have the arochukwus that think they are superior

niger delta/ijaw people are just pathetic of forming a republic in a 2 square kilometres of land

we northerners still need the south, if not for anything but economy or we will just be a desert with only sokoto will be good

just lets address the issue in NIGERIA instead of splitting because it does us no good or what so ever

because the same problem affecting us in nigeria will affect us in this republics that we form

Andre Uweh:
This is a very silly and idiotic thread. In as much as Mike and I argue differently most times, that does not mean I do not respect and call him out for a private debate on nairaland.
@the poster, grow up boy.

why,,,why na why do you insult him because he want to have a private discussion with mikeansy

you people should behave yourself ,,,,,,infact i believe that is very mature of him to start a thread like this

bk, my igbo brothers are not the only people that are bad,

what about yorubas,,,,edo people,,, calabar people,,,hutus,,,etc

lets respect each other

and why are you people showing imagines

Look, ribadu is a bloody lair
Didn't tinubu give him bags of money which I was there myself
How can he be lying like this
Before I liked him but now,
Lair

matazzmagi:
This be-comrich guy you just a foo-l how can you say that igbos are poor were did you get that from?i think you are a big clown,take a good look at nigeria again and tell me who have more beggars on the streets in west and north even in the east northerners live and work in igboland just that they cant kill like  they do in jos or some part of south/west i can see igbos always the victim in nigeria that's why we left Nigeria in 60s . Try and make sence What is Nigeria? Nigeria is a fundamentally flawed and irredeemably corrupt and genocide state that has remained a shame to Africa and Africans and a blight to humanity. igbos want out from Nigerian we want to leave but you people begged Britains Russia Egypt for help if you cant fight biafrans by yourself what make's you people ever think nigeria will make it as a productive country. Which we can see nothing works in nigeria.IGBOS ARE REPUBLICANS!!

i beg stop this rubbish,,, am igbo myself and biafra is crap but for now

Beaf:
You mean you haven't started using it yet? No wonder!
Damn! Are there no carpenters nearby that can help nail it into your head? Any carpenter is ok, and that rat brain is better than the one you have.

Failing that, I know some scientists that can help you with it for free sha. They will be very happy if you submit yourself to research, they want to know how someone sooooo stup!d can manage to exist and also, if you have finished evolving. Are you interested?

Beaf:

Beaf:
Please sir, pardon me if I call you a massive hidiot!!!! i just saw your preposterous claim that some Hausa - Fulani are Edo people! I'm sure your village (Gbangan or wareva) is Edo too.

What a dunce! NL brings pure entertainment!

beaf you have started with this you madness again    kai!!! zo ma na come here and let me give you the rat brain you posted to me,,,,,i will remove the rusty brain of urs and fit in a tokunbo rat brain which think better than u,,,,i am also a doctor

Beaf:
No wonder you're ventilating through your arse! You don't even know your village and yet you foolishly wonder into the politics section? 
Na wa o!
And dude, the word "tribe" refers to a troupe of monkeys, just so you know.

I'm beginning to think this is another unwanted reincarnation of the Alj Harem - Jason123 phenomenon.

beaf i ahve asked you why we should support jonathan and you have not answer me yet

cheikh:
It appears that Nigerians, especially those of them from the southern part of the country are afflicted with the 'tribalism' virus. It seems also that the 'Yoruba' are unfairly accused of being 'tribalistic' by other Nigerians/ neighbours, without actually understanding the source or reasons for such 'behaviour'. The 'Yoruba' geographically are 'victims' of the 'colonial' incursion/ settlement in Nigeria via 'Yorubaland' e.g. Much of the so-called economic 'development' and administration of Nigeria(civil-service)etc., schools/colleges were cited in Lagos/western region. The 'Yoruba' did not have the need/desire to travel to the hinterland/ beyond their region, besides travelling out of the country. Such a people inadvertently will beome 'victims' of circumstance having 'narrow' or 'skewed' view of the world around them. It's almost like expecting the 'English' to speak/learn a foreign language. After all it's the majority/dominant language of the ruling power that governed two-third of the world(British empire). The 'advantage' of the skewed colonial economic development of Nigeria have conspired in some perverse way, to make the indigene/ Yoruba - 'victims' because they did not have to reach out/ travel to other parts of Nigeria in search of- work, education or other reasons most 'Nigerians/ non-Yoruba, flock to Lagos in search of the proverbial 'golden fleece'. It's rare to encounter a 'Yoruba' who speaks other Nigerian languages and whenever you do, it's almost 'exotic' and interesting. I am not trying to make excuses for the 'Yoruba', or for 'small mindedness' or 'tribalistic' tendencies as perceived by 'non Yoruba'. If 'Yoruba' language is the majority/dominant language in Lagos/ environs , it's also natural, perhaps wrongly, to assume that everybody residing in Lagos speaks/understands the 'Yoruba' language as most people/ 'Yoruba' in Lagos are wont to assume. Is it not unfair to blame/accuse somebody who has never had the good fortune/misfortune to leave their 'home' for being parochial or 'tribal'? A little bit of understanding and empathy will go a long way in assuaging much of the pent up misunderstandings/misconceptions/ignorance of fellow Nigerians. Other Nigerians had reasons to migrate/gravitate towards Lagos since the colonial encounter and nothing much have changed except the moving of the administrative capital to Abuja.

God bless you, must nigerians do not know the yorubas,,,they think they are just tribal bigots

well i know they are fake muslims

Pifa:
He was responding to treatment, according to the last piece of news I read about his condition. It's likely that he will suffer some permanent speech impediment and/or diminished motor skills. These are common after a stroke, although I hope he will escape those and that his intellectual skills will remain unaffected.

Question for those of you living in Lagos: Does Mr. Ojukwu have a street named after him in the state? If no street is named after him, then the government of Lagos should rectify this oversight with urgency. He is certainly more deserving of such recognition than many of the semi-literate generals whose names adorn the streets of Lagos and some of the state's infrastructure.
   

i think u are going crazy is the lagos he bombed that a street should be named after

Faeb:
What equation? Alj Harem is the Norths equivalent of becomerich, what does he know about equations when he most likely can't count his toes?
Next thing, you'll be quoting becomerich. I don't even know what to say, was your post out of frantic desperation to say something or what?

and is that the answer to the question posted above

ok i would give it to you again

alj harem1:
beaf and you think gej will do that

beaf it is not atiku and co that have been destroying this country but people that are greed, people that love just themselves and there friends that are destroying this country

beaf, look, Gej, tinubu, atiku, and co are just thieves whether they are northerners, yorubas, ACN, PDP, etc they are still the same set of thieves ruling this country day in day out

beaf, ACN, GEJ, ATIKU, PDP are all the same
can't we all vote for ribadu or buhari or pat utomi   do you not want something new and different

GEJ has been there for 11 mnths, what has he achieved apart from his wife been caught with millions of dollars in saudi arabia using this nigerian money to buy Gold for herself when this money can be used in this same NIGERDELTA they are from to build schools, road, create jobs etc,,,she think GOLD is more important than this things

beaf pls give me a very good reason why GEJ should be president

pls answer the question without being silly
