^^^^^

Quite on the contrary, northerners are not that greedy so I am sure the Kanuris would be willing to share.
On the other hand I can easily imagine how your greedy lot would start scheming and squabbling among yourselves for greater than your own fair share till you break up from national to village level and beyond - it won't surprise me one bit, cos thats what you could expect from those that can eat their own cannibalistic kind

thank you

eku_bear:
^--- If you find 100s of billions of barrels of oil in Kanuriland, the next day I'm sure you guys will declare a Kanuri Republic

oil can never ever make us fight with our brother,., never

if at all kanuri land is to be formed, it is going to be another reason but not greed

i hope that answer your question dapo

Gbam!

Sokoto Caliphate fell under the weight of the British quite easily, even though they had firearms. And their Emirs were left paying homage to their white masters. Funny how these weak people didn't want the British to leave them. 

you and chyz do not know what you are talking about

did the sokoto caliphate fight against the british people when they came

do you think if they did not respect us, they will successful rule us

there was no battle mumu, we are open minded unlike southerners

ASL33:
Na Nsiman wrote that article to vanguard.

Their is something i don't understand, why should we support the huasas to go but not the ibos. Am i missing something?

yes you are missing a lot because igbos are the weakest people in africa

they never had an empire nor a king, thus no ruler to coordinate them in battle

hausa people, fulani people, kanuri people, even yoruba and edo people all have kings and leaders to coordinate them so it is a bit difficult to tell them NO if they want to secede

igbos are known to be secessionist even to there ethnic group

moreover igbos can leave so long it is just the 5 igbo states and nothing else unlike biafra that had, cross river, akwa ibom, baleysea etc

namfav:
well, we need to get some of the oil revenue since we had to pull up with these people for too long

gbammm, remember some of our northern brothers have oil blocks in niger/delta and south-east

that way northern solders can secure those oil blocks and can through air we can be getting some of the oil in the north

remember most southerners are dishonest people, the yorubas will not remember 3rd mainland bridge by ibb (a northerner)

the igbos will not remember health services and others things they have benefitted from northern leaders including abacha

all they do is hate and hate

well i still support solders been taken to south-south and south-east to protect our brothers that are drilling the oil for us

^^^^^

go eat fish shit

^^^^^^

i know what i am saying

until the oil finishes in south-south and south-east, we are going to be one nigeria

once the oil finishes we would go so your utopia economy of progressive people can work

auwal87:
Even as Murtala is dead, his kindred are not. The movement still exists, and it is growing day by day. It is just a matter of time, and Nigeria will be divided just like Sudan. History in the making Hausa-Fulani haters should go to hell!

@bolded gbamm

we northerners should be very careful before seceding

i think we should send solders to south-east and south-south, so we can finish there oil before clamouring for separation

what do you think

jason123

i have been saying this for a very long time

we will leave soon but we have to finish the oil in niger/delta before we touch the oil in chad

namfav:
GOD willing

you are right my brother but lets us finish the oil first before we touch the one in borno state

we cannot separate without the oil in niger/delta finishing

^^^^^

that is the reality

portacabin:
Bianca fell inlove with Ojukwu. Biancas father was extremely rich.
[s]Ojukwu is a great hero of the Igbos any day/time.[/s]

sorry i think you have been smoking some igbo

bianca father was extremely rich yes but did he give ojukwu the right to marry his daughter

how many wives did ojukwu marry before a small 18 yrs old girl come as bianca

at the crossed part

i think you are sick for saying ojukwu is a great hero because i am igbo as well

how many hero do you see in history right from adam/eve to present day run and abandon the people they rule

i am waiting

seanet02:
will be happy with both yet never like TINUBU who ensures the emergence of Fashola. Roflamao

first of all, i think you a young boy that is still developing his personality

secondly, you do not know this tinubu of a man. you have let your oduadua republic cloud and sink your mind to be giving tinubu credit

you and babapupa do not know tinubu at all

Jenifa_:
why do you say that?

because he is loved by all

he speaks the truth although he might be taken as an insult at times

you are the only one with this issue on nairaland

i mean she was 18 when she married him

her father died after refusing this married but as usual igbos he sold his daugther

typical i say again, it is all about money and power

nothing special

we all know that, typical

mods spambot has done it again

please can you fix it ,., thank you

alj harem is the username

THE perceived sins of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar against northern leaders during his first term in office played a major part in the decision of the region to turn away from him in spite of the Mallam Adamu Ciroma-led Northern Political Leaders Forum (NPLF) to prop him up as the region’s consensus candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Saturday Tribune’s investigation revealed that despite spirited attempts of the so-called “nine wise men” to appeal to the sentiments of the region using PDP zoning argument, the people shunned the Turaki Adamawa in Thursday’s primary election in favour of President Goodluck Jonathan because they have not forgotten his insult on northern leaders.

Specifically, it was gathered that prominent people in the North worked against the election of Atiku over his criticism of northern elite during a Northern Economic Summit public lecture in Arewa House, Kaduna, while he was serving as vice president.

In an apparent effort to drum up support for the Olusegun Obasanjo administration, during the lecture, he blamed the poverty and underdevelopment of the region on the pursuit of self interest rather than the people’s interest by the leaders.

Atiku accused northern elite of piling up money in pits and under their beds while the rate of poverty among ordinary people of the region continued to soar.

According to Saturday Tribune sources, “Atiku came to Arewa House to abuse our leaders in their presence when he knows that in the North, we revere our leaders. Nobody has forgiven him since then.”

They were also miffed by his privatisation exercise which he spearheaded as they believed that he carried out the campaign for the benefit of Southerners rather than the North, his primary constituency.

The former vice president was also never forgiven for other comments he made which appeared to hurt the sensibilities of the North, including his declaration that even though the North was his primary constituency, he would never be tempted to use his position as vice president to feather his political nest.

in fact you all are mumu's

bloody mumus

"hisses at the thrend"

No, Alhaji, the war did not happen in 'a distant past that everyone in Nigeria has forgotten'.

The war was from 6th July 1967 to 15th January 1970. It was not 'about 50 years ago' - today is 41 years since it ended. And it may interest you to know that even here on NL you have a few people who actually fought . . . and were scarred. . . in that war.

If[b], like you hinted, you prefer 'to forget' such a tragedy that happened in your nation - and even in your own family, as according to you, your own relatives were also victims - you may want to know that a lot of people have not forgotten. They may have moved on, but they still carry the memories and the scars with them. . .   [/b] 

Perhaps these pictures tell only the Biafran side of the story, as some are quick to mention. That's fine, but like I mentioned in my other post on this thread, these pictures tell part of our collective story. . . they are part of Nigeria's history, just like the other pictures the poster has been kindly posting in the politics and the culture sections of NL. And as a nation we should not - infact we cannot afford to - forget this part of our history, lest we allow it to occur again.

People who feel uncomfortable that only half of the story is being told, should endeavour to post their own pictures so that we can see our 'complete' history of the war in all its glory . . . and gory. That's what they should do. And not to continue to berate a hurting people.

The truth is that very few nations - infact hardly any nation - can heal if they do not talk about their pains. When they try to suppress it, it finds outlets, which ultimately force them to come back to deal with their issues. Personally I think that if Nigeria really wants to heal then it should confront the ghosts of its past and try to resolve the underlying problems.

Trying to sweep the problems under the carpet is not a good strategy at all.  

@ MzD@rkSkin, your observation is the reality - to some people it was - and always will be - about the oil. Human lives lost or destroyed means nothing . . .

I have to forget about it because i can not be holding hate in my heart just because of some people's mistake

Should i say because i have died family member during the war, i should hate my igbo brothers,,,,,NO

If some igbos still hate Nigeria for the war, why do they interact other non-biafrans as if they are friends

how can we move on if we still keep a terrible part of our past in our hearts

i understand if biafrans are still,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, but it has to be forgotten

sad but true it as to be forgotten

once again to all the families affected, my condolences

dem_people:
And I don't hate you either but your people dee fuc.k up too much. E go better make una join Niger/Chad republic nah.

them-people, they are not my people

hausa is not kanuri

dem-people, i understand why u said that because of the north reputation but i can tell u that they are only thugs trying to make us look bad

dem_people:
@ Akhenaten,

You're right. Sometimes I don't know what Ohanaeze is doing. They should start persuading our people up there to come back to the East permanently. If they knew what they were doing, they should have scheduled it for upto 5 (or 7 ) years for a proper un-rushed resettlement in the East. Even if its not within Igboland, other cities exists such as Calabar, Uyo etc. Kai, see wetin Alj Harem Uche Ciroma's people dee cause.

No. It goes like this;

wefu = God please take away
afa = Alj Harem
biko = please

i.e wefu afa ya = God please take away Alj Harem please!

U no dee tire at all. 

moreover i know ola edo does not hate me that much because he is my family friend

tire for watin i ask

that i love my igbo people is that not worth all the time i spend on the internet

that i love igbos does it not mean anything to you

igbo igbo igbo kwenu i am a proud igbo son owelu

hymen:
I wonder where this group is based ?

good question

excanny:
Why are you talking like this? Are Igbos the only southerners living in the North(Jos)?

Last year over 150 Yorubas were murdered. Did they ask all Yorubas to leave jos(I know they dont ask for their dead).

Have the hausa fled jos?

If you are brave enough to go up North. Protect yourself. Fight back or die as a weaklings. All Igbos up there knows this. So they should be prepared to be hit or go back home.

gbamm,, but the question is why are this 2 groups involving the igbo people

Akhenaten:
Yes, I know what you mean. Do not mind alj harem.

and you can not teach you brother and yet you are complaining that the igbo language is dying out

Akhenaten forget about the first few meaning we had, i just do not take biafra issues likely because my family members too die in that fight

i believe we can be friends and share cultures and believes

afam4eva:
Hausa buy turned Igbo. Pls stop deceiving yourself. You're not quarter Igbo. You sound ridiculous.

you have started again just leave me and let me be

it is clear you do not like me, the reason i do not know but i think it is because of my northern origin

well keep you hate to yourself, because no matter what you do i still love you as a brother

Ola edo:
nope sorry.you got it mixed up and wrong. akhenaten u know what i mean.

then since you are igbo and my brother, can you not teach me igbo because our language is dying out and i need to pass it on to my children ( baby alj harem)
