4chi: With the persistent insult from the ibos to all what the yorubas hold dear, I want to send a clarion call to all yorubas to begin the process of systematically stifling these ungrateful parasites. I for one will never deal with any ibo man again for any business. I am also going to frustrate the several okoro chaps working for me out of their job.enough is enough.Mark my words from now on, ibos will begin to see the other side of yorubas. Already, landlords are refusing them as tenants and the process of deporting their miscreants back to onitsha has begun. IF YOU PRIMITIVE PIGS DON'T LIKE YORUBAS, GO BACK TO YOUR EROSION RAVAGED,INFERTILE, LANDLOCKED AND CURSED LAND!!! All your leaders from Zik,ojukwu,iwuanyawu,orji kalu,nwobodo, and the crippled Achebe benefited from Yoruba generosity and hospitality, yet you turn round and run your dirty mouths. Thanks to the Internet,we now know what lies in your mind....and if you think you can engage in your normal bragadoccio and nzogbu nzogbu nonsense here, a single unit of OPC will annihilate you. Ask your brothers in okota why they've been behaving themselves since the incidence of 2002. Anuofia!

shut your stinking mouth you dirty yorubas are only confirming what achebe wrote about you and what everybody already knows , prepare to have your oduduwa republic without oil from igbo land and south south , bunch of parasites living on food stamps from oil money.

like i said nearlier ,achebe wrote his own account of the war, for years the nigerian govt have been publishing lies about what happened to hide the truth but recently thanks to social media the truth is coming out, even if civil war breaks out today ,igbos will not participate and i wonder who will fight who,those yorubas that are bitter about what achebe wrote should first ask themselves if it is true or not.

are yorubas presently being maltreated in the east? do you se how stupid you sound, achebe wrote about the civil war as he experienced it , if you want to counter his facts then write your own memoir if you where even born then.

general Jumong: am a yoruba man bt i dnt tink i benefited from wat they said awo did in this country.bt for achebe to now bringin dead issue it is very disapointed of the old man by this time in the country.let us stop all this tribal talk and let us move on.awo and achebe of wat value are they for those of u born frm 70s down.
i would have taken this same stand as an igbo man but from the responses coming from your yoruba elders and online yorubas it is evident who hates who and that these things are real its not something that can be swept under the carpet, the solution remains SNC, regionalism or total disintegration. there is hatred everywhere and we igbos will be worse hit if nigeria goes into flames today cus we have our properties all over nigeria but if you ask why should we be foolish to have properties all over nigeria then you just confirmed that igbos and other ss groups where right to leave nigeria in 1967.

i myself would love not only one nigeria ut one west africa but if dividing into 250 countries will end this madness, killings and tribalism then let it be , after we divide the comapactible groups can merge to become a nation with their own terms and conditions, its a shame we are klling ourselves over what a random white buisness man created and named by his concubine

Look who's talking about the "truth", as if you 'll recognise one if it jumps and smack you right on the nose.

All you do on this forum is obsfuscate stories or downright revisionism as this your senile old tribeman has just done.

That's what you guys are known for-outright lies and empty chest-beating.

At any rate, am still waiting for you to back up your claim that NCNC won the 1951 regional election in yorubaland.
no need for insults, did achebe lie or not should be the question ,after answering that then we can debate if its right for him to publish the memoir at a time nigeria s already divided.

Elombah Perspective 6:58pm Oct 5

This is what Yoruba guy, Tola Charles said online today:

"To me, the Igbos may have embarked on their own silent revenge war on the rest of us, except that only the Hausa-Fulani have been checkmating them consistently by creating unrests in the North by which a cycle of 'start and settle' is ever revolving to ensure that they do not have that strong foothold. But here in the Southwest, the Igbos have dominated nearly all aspect of our lives.... in my brother Adejuwon's Ijebuland, they are buying landed /land properties and have become lanlords, same in Lagos, in Ibadan, even my own Oyo town the cradle of Yoruba, they are dominating everything. Festac town now 75% owned by Igbos. A travel from Mile 2 to Agbara Industrial estate along Badagry road will keep you thinking whether you are in Onitsha or what. And they are breeding like rats. I think we may have unknowingly been under the siege of the Igbos in Yorubaland."
so what exactly is his problem about igbos owning properties abi they tie yoruba people

Useless jews of igbo racewink wink winkwinkwinkquote author=aryzgreat]I wonder y some yo-robber animals are blaming ndigbo for d first coup and try to suggest the counter-coup and massacre of 30,000 igbos is justifiable. May be bc the hausa cows didn't include the yo-robbers in the madness that followed the counter-coup after all yoruba officer was part of the plot, so yo-robbers should be massacred too? oh! u want to tell me d 5 majors spared igbos? was Lt col Unegbe d quartermaster general spared? he was killed too, let me tell u many igbos were in the list of people to be killed just that the coup can be described as unfortunate cos the military officers in charge of the lagos and east ie ironsi and ojukwu stopped the coup, so how is it supposed to be igbo coup?

here is an excerpt from Alexander madiebo's Nigerian revolution and Biafran war which many y0-robbers have been quoting part of recently,


How did d same coup dat two igbo officers foiled become an igbo coup? should dat be d reason to massacre 30, 000 civilians after decimating igbo officers in the counter-coup? Do u know dat major Donatus Okafor was buried alive during the counter-coup?

You yo-robber bastards know nothing about biafra war, u animals were busy eating amala ati ewedu while d war was going on, but u want to tell the war story better than the soldiers at d war front, SMH for u tiger-claw- faced cowards
stop twisting history , that yorubas have accepted their fate to be slaves to hausa fulanis does not mean igbos will.

[size=20pt]watch the whole incedent before and after the war including why army officer executed the coup because nigeria was in deep chaos coupled with yorubas klling themselves(over 2thousand yorubas killed by yorubas) and end your ignorance.[/size]

Politics / Achebe's Civil War Memoir's Invitation For Fresh War — CPC by bashr8: 2:46pm On Oct 06, 2012
The Muhammadu Buhari-led Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) yesterday described the statement made by Prof. China Achebe on former military head of state, General Yakubu Gowon and the late Chief Obafemi Awolowo, in his latest book,as unfortunate.

The literary giant claimed that the war-time Head of State and the then vice chairman of the Federal Executive Council, formulated policies that promoted genocide against the Igbo.

Reacting to the statement, CPC National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Rotimi Fashakin, said: “From whichever perspective you look at it Chinua Achebe is a statesman, whose mastery of prose is globally acknowledged. The question is: what is the portent of this memoir by Professor Chinua Achebe at the twilight of his life? Does he intend to make us to continue a controversy that would definitely outlive him?

He said the statement was capable of triggering war.

“It is akin to the great Madiba, the irrepressible, indomitable Nelson Mandela writing a book and cataloguing only the heinous crimes of the white supremacists of the apartheid era. The first thing that runs through the mind (before depreciating the worth of the man) is: what is the portent of this at the ‘quarter-to-grave’ status of this old bloke?

“What you now see is that there is basically exiguous information in the memoir that obviates the need to ‘sheathe sword’ in stirring up a needless controversy in a state with fragile nationhood.

“From all intents and purposes, Prof Chinua Achebe projected a very parochial opinion about the war. I do not expect ancients like him to bring up memories that will further exacerbate the inflamed passions on the war. It is even very unfair to the memory of Chief Obafemi Awolowo because, at that time, he felt the policy of withholding feeding- which he had said was mainly directed at the Biafran fighting force- was meant to bring the war to a quick end.

“ You will appreciate that statement when you consider that Iran and Iraq fought for eight years in the 80s with attendant humongous fatalities on both sides. The three-and-a-half-year duration of the Nigerian Civil war could have been extended if that policy was not in place"

“May be, one can now see the wisdom in the Ikemba’s reticence in writing a war-time memoir. For me, he remains a hero, a quintessential Nigerian patriot who did what fate thrust upon him, and he discharged with honour, courage and unflagging assiduity.

“Succinctly put, this unfortunate statement by Professor Chinua Achebe has unwittingly vitiated his worth!”

In his reaction, National Publicity Secretary of the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF), Anthony Sani, said even though Achebe is entitled to his opinion, it is conventional in a war situation to do everything possible to enable you win such a war.

Sani said : “[size=17pt]I remember that when such allegations were first made, Chief Awolowo replied them by saying that in a war, you do whatever you can to win. So, whatever instrument used to win the war then was okay[/size].([size=15pt]so achebe and nairaland igbos have been right all these while about hawolowo[/size])

“After the war, they introduced a policy that integrated the Igbos back into the Nigerian nation. I think that was a commendable effort aimed at showing that to the world that they meant well”.

Abuja-based lawyer,Mr.kayode Ajulo said:”The new book by Chinua Achebe, in my humble opinion, is nothing but an irrational continuation of the Civil War that ended before my birth which fortunately was declared as no victor, no vanquished.

“ Chinua Achebe and a few others are still bitter and regard themselves as the vanquished of the war.

“His assertion on the Yoruba and Chief Obafemi Awolowo is an evidence of emblematic fixation that has plagued the writer before and after the war.

“Well-meaning Nigerians, particularly Igbo leaders and traditional rulers, are enjoined to call Achebe to order as he presently constitutes a security risk to the corporate existence of Nigeria”.

However,Achebe’s kinsmen in Ogidi, Idemili North Local Government Area of Anambra State, saw nothing wrong in what he said.

Dr Phillip Atanmuo a native of Ogidi and Chairman of Ohaneze Ndigbo in the state, said: “Truth is always bitter and that sums up my reaction’’.

Dr Atanmuo demanded that Nigerians face the reality of how things are and stop wiping up tribal sentiment at any slightest opportunity, retorting that those wiping up the sentiment were just striving to paint Ndigbo black.

‘’Until there is fairness , equity, justice and love for one another, Nigeria would remain down but once these virtues are propagated, healthy competition will creep in because all the best brains in the world are from Nigeria. Go to Europe and you will discover that the best brains there are from Nigeria – the most brilliant people all over the world, yet nothing is happening here because of tribalism and unnecessary bickering and antagonisms,” he said.

They shouldn't have been tortured for so long if they were going to be killed anyways.
Many different conflicting stories emerging.
Knowing Nigeria, they could have been set up.

See how comfortable someone is beating life out of others.
See blood all over the place.

That man needs to have his head checked.
i thought so , the killer themselves need to be sent to the psychiatric hospital , if they are so comfortable with taking human life in such a manner then they should have no buisness being among people and walking around free. imagine if you have a misunderstanding with such a person or provoke them they wont hesitate to kill you on the spot.

She said she was jailed in the US for attempted murder. "I was living in the US and one of my neighbours had an issue with me over the laundry machine. After that issue, I went to jail and I decided to come back to Nigeria."
