here we go victm mentality again, whats your own with their affairs?umeh was complaining about the speakership being zoned to the south west as if he was expecting them to give it to the south east on a platter of gold, whoever betrayed one another in the southwest has no bearing on the present political equation and if the south east politicians dont look inwards and make cohersive statement,then they wont even get the sgf post.keep on abusy obasanjo and south west while they are networking and pushing their own interests

Just that am not comfortable with that betrayal aspect because every region does that, no point to single out the South east alone.
Anyway, if the south west gets that, no qualms. An ordinary man in the east does not care about who gets the position of this or that but wants to see a new way of doing things. For example, security improvement, prices of goods fallen, a network of good roads and bridges, regular power supply, creation of jobs, improvement of amenities in the health, education and other sectors.
They will revolt against any govt that denies them this basic amenities not who denyies them the assaulted speakership position or whatever.

@the OP, GEJ may be regularly insulted by the likes of Seanet, bluetooth, Aigbofa, Rhino, BK.Babe etc not because of his policies but because he is Ebele.
Let him not join.

lucabrasi:
its not the south west he should be worried about but his fellow south eastern politicians, they are the ones who are in the habit of betraying each other and selling each other down the river at the first hint of financial inducement or ministerial posts.
the southwest are not expected to be fighting the south east's battle if obasanjo is pressing for south west let them to bring ojukwu,ezeife and others to fight their corner

Quit chatting crap, south west politicians betray their own people more than others. Checkout those who betrayed Awo. How about Abiola, and the other general who wept sometime ago. Even the south west monarchs have betrayed their people more than any other monarchs from other region.
All this hypocrisy has to stop.

Congratulation and well done.

Eko Ile:
The fact is, before this new political deospensation, ibo people have enjoyed the same positions several times over with the SW getting nothing, they didn't cry or whyn endlessly as if the world is going to come to an end over some worthless speaker postion. Sahaouting all over the place as if your future and the future of your kids is in danger if you don't get this crappy position. This is really pathetic.

Don't you people have better things to worry about?

Guy, no need crying more than the bereaved here. Do you not have any other thing to worry than Igbo matters?.

I know how it feels at this moment, but my brother, calm down as GEJ has still got 48 months to deliver. Remember an eastern Nigerian proverb says that 'anagi eji ututu ama njo ahia'.
Enemies of Ndigbo are at work here and they want to ensure that all our efforts, for the first time in collectively voting for a winner is futile.
Nothing spoil yet, my brother, inugo.

There is no harm yet. The new administration has not kicked off yet and it is baseless to start complaining now. What the south-east had in mind before voting for GEJ wasn't about the position of the speaker of the house of assembly.
What the region needs most is infrastructural upliftment of the zone.

This your stupendous thread goes a long way to show how brainless humans can be. Even your fellow school drop-outs can confortably spell Ojukwu while you can not.
It's a pity anything Igbo, Biafra or Ojukwu scares away your life. Ride on.

@The O.P,
If G.E.J does well, Nigerians will yawn for him to go for another tenure. But if he does not deliver, Ohakim like-treatment will befall him.

@Rhino.
No need claiming that no one sells land to Igbo people in Port Harcourt. It is like saying that Lagosians do not sell land to Yorubas anymore. Land sell has always been a business affair and goes to the highest bidder.
If an Ikwerre man needs money to save his dying father ih hospital, and the only way he can raise money to save his father is by selling land, would this Ikwerre man now say no to an Igboman and prefer his father dying rather than selling the land to the Mbano man.
Rhino.5dm, for once apply wisdom in your posts.

afam4eva:
I don't know why you non-Igbos feel you know everything about Igbo. Ask yourself why Ikwerre people like Julius Agwu, Tonto Dike, Duncan Mighty keep associating themselves with anything Igbo. Most of duncan mighty's songs are in Igbo.

You have just reminded me how Julius Agwu performed at Iri Ji Festival in London just few years ago and he refused any fee to be paid to him. According to him, ''it is the case of an Igbo supporting an Igbo event''. He is a very proud Igbo.

[quote author=Rhino.5dm link=topic=263214.msg8318735#msg8318735 date=1305374608]You are effing lying! I worked in the mist of hardliners(Ikwerre's). They hate people linking them to Igbos

In their community they even have embago on selling land to Igbos. Facts!

The relationship is very sour; so, don't try suger coat it.

Why can't igbo man EVER say the truth? Ehn.

Don't you people fear God?[/quote]My wife is Ikwerre and my trado.wedding was in Ikwerreland. On that day, there was nothing to suggest that the people were not Igbo. Opening prayer and closing of prayers were in Igbo. The blessing and breaking of kolanut was in Igbo. The M.C spoke in Igbo throught the day and none objected.
On that day, the bride was given a cup of nkwu-elu (palm wine) to go and find me just as it was done when my sisters got married in Igbo heartland.
If you practice Igbo culture, speak Igbo language, bear Igbo names, have Igbo market systems and Igbo Igbo trad religious system, then you are Igbo. Some of them who deny Igbo actually knows the truth that they are Igbo.

[quote author=Rhino.5dm link=topic=263214.msg8318670#msg8318670 date=1305373643]^^ Is that all? ssmh!

For your info. My wife is half Ikwerre, half yoruba. They despise Igbos with all their hearts.

So don't bullshyt me.[/quote]My wife is Ikwerre as well and a proud Igbo, while Afam's mother is Ikwerre and also a proud Igbo.

[quote author=Rhino.5dm link=topic=263214.msg8318613#msg8318613 date=1305372641]All this Igbo 80% of this and that sef.

@ekt_bear. Don't ever make a mistake of calling Ikwerre man Igbo else prepare for his wrath.

They so much hate anything that has to do with Igbos. Forget about these internet thieves wishing Rivers is there's.

Shameless people. We are 65% lagos, 40% kano, 50% kaduna, 80% Rivers, 40% Jos, 35% london, 35 New york bullcrap.

Easy they go saying trash and yet when prompted about the mortality rate of Igbo race they become bewildered.

When even a lunatic knows that average marraige age of Igbo man is between 38-40 years; avarage birth rate is 3-4 children(fear of poverty). Yet they go around claiming the majority.

Uche, Port Harcourt is just at the Southern borders of that bolded line. 75% of Port Harcourt falls under Igboland.

Johndoe100:
I would have contributed to this thread, but I noticed that all the ibo morons have as usual taken over the thread.

" Rivers state is ibo"
"We the true natives are the slaves of ibo"
"In fact we longer exist"

Don't you people engaging in this kind of dialogue with the fools, understand that they are just losers sitting somewhere typing their fantasies?

The first question you need to ask them is "Are you from Rivers State". They make having ANY mature discussion on my state impossible.

Ibo people are a nuisance anywhere they go.

Do not vent your anger on Ndigbo because they are not responsible for your misery in Nigeria. For the fact that you sit at home all day drinking ogogoro is not Igboman's making. For the fact that Oil monguls from the North have milked your village oil dry is not Igbo's making. Instead of coming here to display stupidity about the Igbo, you should face the real ememies of your backward people.
Intelligent people are here debating and the only thing you can come up is to call the Igbo people nuisance.
This your brainless post above should be thrown in the bin.

ezeagu:
Yoruba are Egun people, how about that?

That may be O.k just as there was Serbia and Montenegro sometime ago.
