www.nairaland.com/attachments/3734213_download_jpeg9e044ea0ed5817381b189680f392bafe

What exactly are you on about? Where exactly were you expecting the destination of the local flight segment to be? Ibadan or Oshogbo?

Yorubas again? What exactly is wrong with this people? What does this thread have to do with them that they are all over the thread?

Proudlyngwa:
You might be correct, but your reference won't win you any laurels

Lol! Why so?

Proudlyngwa:
Thanks for the memories , I will cherish and store it.

I believe, that was when Nigerians saw Nigeria as one, and a Yoruba man, saw an Ijaws man property as his vice versa, not necessary loathe for ijaw oil

Far from it. They believed the oil belonged to them, and that Ojukwu and Ndiigbo were forcefully taking the Eastern minority tribes away to enjoy the oil alone.

That mentality of theirs is yet to change. Everything is seen through the prism of oil for them. See the way that Yoruba poster I quoted was echoeing exactly the same thing his ancestors said in 1960's without even being aware of it. They are internally wired that way.

Anyway, here are more historical pics from where that one came from.

MadCow1:
Wow... Le kwa nu mu na ndi Okoko na Nairaland.

Like this shiit you typed is so deep I had to read it twice before I remembered that all this fhuckery you wrote was all over a fhucking sarcastic comment which was obviously stated.

Nwokem, gbafuo from here. Igbo Voltron. What have you contributed to the development of Igboland apart from ranting online? You think being Igbo is this thing you are doing. Show me your community in Igboland and I will take you to mine in Anambra and lets compare who has done more in their communities in terms of general contribution to the people.

You are busy heaping curses on the head of your bastard children whose lives will never be better than the current condition you are in Today.

Ewu Upper Iweka di ka gi.

Nwokem carry your accursed life and go and die in one corner. Mu na gi aburo ogbo in any category whatsoever.

Eternal Onye nzuzu.

Your written Igbo has improved, Okija juju. It use to give you away when you started this your dance of shame, initially.

Why must you claim Igbo when you obviously are not one? How does having links to Agukwu nri via marriage, equate to being an Igboman?
Are you no longer from the Igbo speaking part of Rivers state that prefers going by the tag " rivers man"?

Biko rapu umuIgbo aka, stop using us for your jokes, we are not joking. Go look for your people to joke with.

Proudlyngwa:
Except you have evidence to back it, that picture looks like it was taken in old bendel/midwest

It was taken in front of French embassy in Lagos in 1968.

Omokunlex:
Rubbish thread by an IPOB that want to steal ijaw oil.
Ijaws are Lazy drunkards, its just in them and it was a BIG MISTAKE to have an ijaw ineffectual buffon as president in this country.

Take a look at the pic below, they are not IPOB, they are Yorubas, both old and young( look at that seemingly innocent Yoruba child in the background), male and female. And guess what they were all after? Yea, Niger Delta oil wealth. They were even shamelessly calling it their oil, ie "our oil", just read the placards, and this was as early as 1968.

You should be ashamed of your people.

MadCow1:
You have been duly noticed and presence acknowledged.

You can move along now.

*Spits*

Like a snake, it's only befitting that spitting is part of your hobbies too.

Rivers man, stay away from Igbo issues and Igbos will stay away from you.

To even think you once wanted to contest for Eze Ndiigbo Nairaland, confusion ga dimakwa na your head.

96xtr9r:
It's wicked and evil to so use any trumped up excuse to support the continuation of this expired entity cum contraption which has hitherto been sustained by gross injustice, lopsidedness and continual bloodletting.

For the benefit of doubts, there exists two groups of Igbo people who rant carelessly about 'One Nigeria':

1. The ignorant who bear Igbo names but lack the requisite Igbo resilience and independence - the products of strange marriages.
2. Those who gain from the fraudulent system and/or are afraid of their post-Nigeria survival.
(And the fact is - they are in the minority; be they in/around politics/politicians or in plum jobs).

And there are only two options available for Nigeria's problem:

1. Kowtow to the whims and caprices of Yorubas and accept Hausa-Fulani hegemony.
2. Support self-determination and eventual balkanization of the country as espoused by Igbos aiming for Biafra and some other ethnic groups for their respective republics.

Any other option save a UN supervised referendum is merely tantamount to fooling around.

Eziokwu kwu oto ka amu.

Seriously, it's Igbos like Innoson that feel like they have lots to gain from United Nigeria that looks down on those of us that insist on independent Igboland.

I pray he survives this Snare without losing the little he thought he had gained from Nigeria. Goodluck to him, though it's too bad that Goodluck is no longer there and he is now going to face the wrath of the envious Yoruba/Northern alliance.

MadCow1:
Igbo People and Forgery be like Nigerian Police and bribe.





Na joke o!!

You need to get a life and stop dying on top Igbo matter, after failed attempts at claiming Igbo, Mr Okija juju.

This could have been staged too. Not in anyway convinced.
This govt is desperate, it can't be a co incidence that this news is coming in at a time NLC is resisting the FG fuel price increase.

This might be a poor attempt at getting Nigerians to start talking about something else other than the fuel price ish.

The desperation of these Yorubas and Northerners know no bound.

What is the connection between IPOB and this militant group.

Their asking for Kanu release is only a just demand that doesn't necessary mean they are being sponsored by IPOB.

scully95:
Has the war been over in Syria as we speak ? Arent they supporting various terrorists in Syria as we speak ?

You don't even know anything read what I wrote up again. I have updated it.

Again the leader of IPOB or even Nnamdi Kanu will slap you if they hear you make such claim... Why do you think there so many Igbo in U.S and the detest going to the UK ?

You don't even use your brain. Normally, those that flew from Nigeria during the time, went to U.S. Took refuge there and it's mainly their kids growing up now and still calling for biafra. Any igbo man in U.S growing up during that time will tell you the same thing.

You don't even know anything...


Plus if we are to count Syrian war.. U.S boots are on the ground.. For that reason we will be counting it as U.S war. Russian boots too were on the ground. Same goes.

In Biafra U.S or soviet union/ foreign boots were not onthe ground and for that reason, you can't count it as their wars. That is the point jnhmaxxwell is making..

Same goes to donbass war. Russian boots were not on the ground and for that reason is not also Russian war but you have a propagandized Missy89 counting conflict another country's civil war or as Russia's war.

Back in the day, if Russian soviets were not involed in the war, you can't even count it as Russian lost or won. ALl the wars between that time were carefully sellected and Russia won 31 out of 34 major wars. Real war front.. Not conflict or Battle..

Seriously, you are all over the place. What exactly does Igbos going to America for refuge have to do with America providing real military support for Biafrans like the British and the Soviets did for Nigerians?

scully95:
If there is one thing U.S is good at doing.. It's at telling massive lies. Even your IPOB potential terrorists/thieves will tell you those that supported Biafra were U.S.A, France and Isreal. These were the foreign powers that supported Biafra. Either they were backing it with arms covertly or even overtly, history did not reveal such but trust me they were supporting them somehow as it's now open to common naked eyes how they are openly supporting terrorists in Syria.

Check the history and stop spreading U.S lies here. U.S that will tell one thing now and next they tell you another thing.. Just like John Kerry has disgraced himself on several occasions ?

If the US or France supported Biafra, the war would have been over in months, with Nigerians completely annihilated.

Biafra got no military support from any world power. France was initially giving her skeletal insufficient ammunitions but stopped giving any at all, after the British forced her to stand down.

Biafran got mainly moral support from countries like Ivory coast, Tanzania, Haiti and the rest.

At no point at all, did US support Biafran military campaign during the war.

And btw, if US had supported Biafra, it wouldn't have been supporting a wrong side, it would have been a morally just move. But US like all Caucasian powers of this world are never about morals, they are all about economic and strategic interest, supporting a blockaded break away African nation that was being attacked by her British ally, wasn't exactly a strategic move.

Btw. DIckson is really a dic-k for spewing such rubbish against his people.

The work of a leader is to inspire his people to greatness, to right all the wrongs in them.

What exactly does Dickson expect to achieve with this public image assassination of his people? For other Nigerians to applaud him as a good leader who failed to inspire his people, and for them(!Nigerians) to join him in bashing his people.

Dickson truly lack brain cells, he is part of the problem and not the solution, if he were wise, nothing stops him from organizing village gatherings in all part of his state, get the help of inspirational leaders, that will table the problems of his people before them, criticize them where needed, and help them see the way forward, Dickson didn't do this, but was quick to rush to the newspaper house to blow hot air. Failed leadership is the bane of Bayelsa, and not lazy people. The history of the world is full of ordinary and docile group of people, that were inspired into achieving great feats by great leaders whose visions were beyond their time, and who found a way to inspire their people into believing in their visions and bringing them into reality.

Dickson of course can't inspire Bayelsa youths to engage in productive ventures, when he was exactly the one that was sharing guns to them to shoot him into power few months ago, he has no credibility and so can't offer sound leadership

Onye ara!

I can see that it's Niger Delta/ Ijaw bashing that is currently trending in Nairaland.

Funny that Igbo people that are always at the receiving end of this senseless bashing from Nairalanders have developed short memory and have joined Nigerians to continue the bashing of Niger deltans.

Ngwanu, make una continuu( in PEJ voice). Anya Nkiri
kam no.

The same way U.S supported Biafra against Nigeria. So U.S has History of backing the wrong to its advantage or geopolitcal goal of control via attacking it opponents. It's a fact.

Some people are just good at peddling lies.

When did the USA support Biafra? How exactly did that happen? When the US made it clear that a United Nigeria in 1967 served her interests better than a divided Nigeria ie Biafra.

Desist from spreading lies to the public.

[b] From Nigeria LNGSix Project Environmental Study of the Sterile Zone, Nov 2003

"Also due to the negative influence of Ubani Igbo, on the use of Ibani language by Bonny people (Ubani Igbo is some form of Igbo dialect introduced partly as a result of trade relations in the hinterland with Igbos and also the influence of Igbo slaves in Bonny), NLNG has set out to save Ibani language from extinction. Key informants stated that with the influx of strangers on the Island, the Ubani Igbo and Pidgin English have relegated Ibani to the background. Therefore, NLNG in April 2002, started a pilot renaissance programme to teach a group of 100 children aged 4 – 12 years Ibani language. Incidentally, at the take off of the course, interested persons had more than doubled. However, at the time of this survey, information obtained from the NLNG community relations shows that attendance was gradually declining."


Chief A. T. Allison, secretary Bonny Chiefs Council is also highly disappointed at the general response to the study of the Ibani Dialect in Bonny. He agreed that introduction of the dialect into schools as a compulsory subject would help but regretted that the children would not get any encouragement from their parents at home. (Reason: They are not Ibani but Igbo)
He said, “The home of the children is where the crux of the problem lies, otherwise would have suggested that the adults be ignored a bit and greater emphasis laid on the children in the interest of future generations. Therefore, whatever advantage or encouragement is given to the children in the study of IBANI, should be redoubled and given to their parents if not, all efforts would prove fruitless”. The Ibo he said is now what he calls the Commercial Language of the Bonny man. [/b]

The story of Igbo presence in Bonny and Opobo being solely from slave trade is a lie from the pit of hell that can never survive the scrutiny of good research.

Excerpt from memoirs of Hugh Crow (1765 – 1829), an English sea captain.

"The inhabitants of Bonny, when our author last visited that port, amounted to about 3,000. They are chiefly a mixture of the Eboe, or Heebo, and the Brass tribes; the latter deriving their name from the importation into their country, which lies to the northward and westward of Bonny, of a kind of European-made brass pans, . . .
It is probable (and this opinion entertained by Captain Adams and others) that Bonny, and the towns on the low line of the coast on either side of it were originally peopled from the Eboe country, and that before the commencement of the slave trade, if it then existed, the habitants employed themselves in the making of salt, . . .
The King of New Calabar (Kalabari) in the neighbourhood, and Pepple, king of Bonny, were both of Eboe descent, of which also are the mass of the native.

.

Coolscott at it again.

Anyway, no one ever said that Igbani is Igbo language.

We know Igbani as the minority language spoken in Bonny villages by Ijaw people there, and Ubani Igbo as the Igbo language spoken by Igbo descendants who inhabit mainly Bonny township.

Dlee1:
Don't be mislead, SS never believed in SE. I don't know why we the SE keep believing on SS who betrayed us during the civil war. This people are not to be trusted.

You mean, Anioma people, Egbema, Ekpeye,Asa and Ndoki people, who are also SS betrayed other Igbos during the war?

A simple look at the identities of those in support and are rejoicing over the NA brutality against innocent Ijaw people will reveal they are 98% Yorubas, why? Look no farther, look below:


"With the war ended, and as a
Commissioner in Rivers State, I soon
found that the Rivers State for which I had
fought did not end my nightmare. In the
first place, oil money from Ogoni country
(as well as Ijaw country) was being carted
away to Lagos, leaving the Ogoni illiterate
and backward. This is anti-federalism"~ Saro Wiwa

Who have the Yorubas not accused of wanting to run away with what they call "our oil"?

They accused Ironsi
They accused Ojukwu
They accused France
They accused de Gaul
They accused French people
They accused Biafrans
They accused MASSOB
They accused IPOB
They accused Kanu
They accused Ndiigbo
They accused Niger deltans
They accused Dokubo
They are currently accusing Tompolo and the Avengers.

Every one wants their oil, oil that is not in Odua land. Yet they are the ones with placards.

Obijulius:
Lol at how the parasites swooped in to defend their cowardice.

What baffles me is the Yoruba resistance to Biafra. The resistance is to desperate that one would think their survival depends on it.

No Yoruba man will tell u, in reasonable terms, why he is against a SS/SE Biafra. You only hear them say 'let your people leave Lagos first'.

Yoruba land has the largest crude oil deposits in the world (their claim), yet they shiver when the NDA strikes.

Please support statehood for SS and SE. It's not your business if we have chosen to stay together. You guys stand a better chance of making more progress with your masters/cousins the Northeners.

At least for once support something rationale.

See Yorubas in 1968. Look at their ewedu and amala mouths, as they screamed "Our Oil".

Well in theory, Ghana found oil too, but in practice, the oil was not in enough commercial quantity to effect any economic transformation in Ghana.

Omenka! I hope say you don call home, kno whether malle and palle and siblings are still alive.

Chai Buhari!

Anyway, this is good news. Finally the Yorubas can share their newly discovered oil with their Muslim Arewa brothers in Northern Nigeria.

They can now stop threatening death and fire on Ndiigbo when we speak of seccession. And they can now stop wishing ill on the Avengers, for standing and fighting for what rightly belongs to they and their people.

God bless the future union between oodua and her northern Muslim Arewa brothers, Isee!
May their union and bond of brotherhood become more strengthened by this oil discovery, Isee!! May their new nation be prosperous, Isee!!!

papparatzzi2013:
We have never been about Niger Delta oil because we are the 2nd highest oil producing region after SS. Lagos just put the icing on the cake.

Be rest assured, OGUN will soon lit the candle on the cake.

When I think of Dangote Refinery, Petrochemicals, Olokola LNG, Bitumen in Ondo etc I can't but appreciate God for the land of Oduduwa.

For your information 98% of Nigeria's ICT backbone is in SW. That is having what is called "enormous power' within the cyber world.

We are not only your gateway physically, whether on air or land or by sea; we are also your major gateway into the dynamic cyberspace.

Yorubas have never been about oil? Eh kwa!

A picture they say, say a thousand words.

Here is a picture of Yoruba protesters in Lagos in 1968. Look at the writings in their placard. Note the key word "Our Oil".

You deceive no one with your hypocrisy.
