Igbos are like gods to Reno. His brain is programmed with Igbo thoughts by default.

can she say it without crying?

Save your congratulations.

These are the people you want to allow to have nuke.

amaridigital:
Simple congratulations would do. Haba, cho cho cho cho cho cho. Chestbeating stylishly.

pain went straight to you. That's not bad

Slytiger:
There is a Yoruba guy in Enugu building stadiums, hospitals, scholarships, road projects, mosque e.t.c You don't see Yorubas carrying loud speakers are trying to guilt trip others.

nah. His mother is from Enugu state. That is quite common.

Can you list the schools instead of just flashing numbers at us like INEC.

Nnamdi Kanu being vindicated by every such statement. Interesting.

Mischievous to show him in an Igbo attire when he is antisemitic.

Interesting gesture from the man who recognises his alumnus. What is more interesting is the fact they're not complaining that he is making the university a no-man's-university, they're not complaining he is dominating them, not complaining about the source of his wealth, they're not complaining he has the billionaire tag. See them smiling and collecting money.

It seems such complaints only happen when it's an Igbo investing in Igboland; one race expressing frustration about the relative prosperity of the other.

Smartjeezy01:
I am waiting for Reno omokri to reply this iberibe.

he won't reply. Many people are waiting to chase him off the internet. His cup is full.

Enugurangers:
Can't you see that one of the book has on its front page that it was approved by ministry of education when that was clearly false. The writers of that book should he arrested and prosecuted.

someone missed his comprehension classes. The book says it follows approved curriculum and not ministry of education approval. Ministry of education don't approve books except in specific cases. There are processes to challenge academic research; executive fiat and mob brigandage are certainly not part of it.

Goodvibes007:
Ooni said Ugbo not Igbo. Vanguard changed it to Igbo.

Daily post and your own the nations newspaper lied against Ooni?

You're fighting a lost battle. Using a mere statement from cl*end at the ministry of education and flaunting the names of the writers to score ethnic points instead of challenging the research academically will do more harm than good to your likes who hate what the book says.

PulaPower:
You clearly didn’t read at all..

According to the petition, two books—Standard History Studies for JSS 1–3 by Tony and Ijeoma Duru, and The Igbo: People, History and Worldview by Dons Eze and Chinedu Ochinanwata—contain false narratives that present Ile-Ife as originally settled by the Igbo before Oduduwa allegedly invaded and drove them out.

what evidence do they have to show it was false?

Karlman:
Fact is Igbo ancestors were at Ife, yes, same Ile Ife, and I heard it first from the Oni of Ife. What I don't know is if they were the first to settle there, and that is where the government should dig up in earnest search for truth and fact.

And as for those of you jumping up and down over what you know next to nothing about, the present Igbo is not planning to come back to Ife for any reason, in fact it was the Oni himself that was asking Igbos not to forget they moved from Ife.

Let the government set up a committee of enquiry to look into history.

Igbos have been in Ife which the Oni himself spoke about severally that Igbos were once at Ife, and same as benin.

I heard Oni of Ife in a video telling Igbo people that they moved from Ife in the olden days.
Government should do a finding rather than dismiss the book entirely just to be politically right.

Going through comments on this threads showed how obviously there little number of learned people on nairaland. No brainstorming, no academic exchange, just blind and ignorant arguments from people who know next to nothing about the topic.

FYI Igbo ancestors were at Ile Ife, go and dig up. The question here is, we're they the first.

this was why they banned history. They didn't say the book was false, they said it's a threat to national unity

Dancebreaker:
hmmmmm.
We want facts based on archaeology, ancient oral records, consistency across various tribes, etc.

One should be open-mind. But making assertions without exhaustive research work is not good enough.

it is the duty of intelligentsia to challenge it. You do not use state institutions to fight scholarly research. Truth is the most powerful ideology, if you fight it with brute force instead of truth, even the enemies of it will come to accept it.

Reno finally accepting the inevitability of Anioma state.

Itshekiri are Yorubas? lol shouldn't you convince native Lagosians first before jumping over Edo to claim itshekiri?

Itshekiri are nervous over sharing a state with urhobo and ijaw with the imminent departure of Aniomas. Hence, the sudden friendship.

Lol

Igbo men he means

Interesting to hear

The internet never forgets

Dennixe001:
Peter MBAH want an Enugu State owned railway with the permission from the Nigeria Railway Corporation.

It's a business rail track. He doesn't mind paying each the rail passes their land royalty. But the revenue from the rail track is 100% sure.

what do you mean by Enugu state owned railway? You either have interstate owned by the fg or intrastate railways owned by the state as with Anambra being planned by soludo. If you want to connect an intrastate railway to other states, there has to be an arrangement among the connecting states which MBA has not told us. He is instead talking about building a railway to onne through several states, while isolating information about possible collaboration of neighbouring states and even the SEDC, when his state doesn't border Onne port.

Zonefree:
Ogbomoso age analyst!

u guys hate being bursted.

He is too old for the old picture to be 1960. He is in his late 30s there which should make him close to 100 now. Lie with sense.

Nuzo1:
You still filled with lots of sentiments sir.

In war, you kill other people to protect your own people. It’s a kill or be killed situation.

That some of his people are still alive today is because he killed others. If not, 2 weeks after Biafra has seceded…they would have been wiped out.

per haps those killing his people to survive are right.

Ojiofor:
The writer said non indigenes should vote only in their states of origin...
Then why are Tinubu's from other Yoruba states ruling Lagos state or it does not apply to Lagos?

they should vote in their state of origin but pay tax in their state of residence. clowns!

Bad omen

helinues:
I am yet to read about any neighbouring states to Anambra state requesting for their fire service help

Everything shouldn't be politics. This should be third thread I will be responding to regarding fire service lack of equipments in Anambra state. Your governor can do something about it

did you read anywhere Anambra state requested fire service from another state?

helinues:
Sometimes a go, it was Delta or Edo state fire service that came to the rescue in Anambra state

There are some things the Anambra state governors are not paying attention to

it is professional ethics in fire fighting and emmergency/rescue service to work across state administrative boundaries. If Anambra state fire service is overwhelmed in Onitsha, Delta state fire service can be deployed from Asaba and vice versa. Anambra state fire service also fights fire in Enugu markets from Awka.
Though this is common knowledge, I don't expect you to know it.
