Ouk my niggi. Comfirm nwa Aba. Enugu dey hail o. Alaigbo dey greet. Go and do us proud

oyebanji44:
Obj's one aim in life is to make this nation a truly democratic country.he believed that in Nigeria, national loyalties were stronger than tribal ones.And this was one of the reasons why majority of the yorubas disliked him

this coming from a yoruba bigot like u is very deep.
I have been thinking to myself why nigerians prefer their ethnic champions to their nationalistic heroes.

Igbos prefer ojukwu to zik
Hausa prefer buhari to yaradua
Yoruba prefer tinubu and awo to obj

Shame on all of us. Until we stop being igbo hausa yoruba and start being nigerians, we would still be one of the worst countries in africa. Never mind the world

Kagd10:
Liar. Ojukwu was never in support of secession until the reprisal attack on the Ibos in the North.

In fact, it was documented that few minutes after ironsi had signed the unitary decree, Ojukwu had opined for the Ibos to go to the northern region to take over the Jobs because the Northerners are less educated than the Ibos. What the hell? I mean how could Ibo have perpetrated such wickedness on another person land? This wickedness was equivalent to how Azikiwe appointed 302 Ibos out of the 305 staffs appointed at the university of Ibadan, a SW University! Only 2 Yorubas was appointed. Just look at the wickedness! It's even foolish of Ibos to have expected the Yorubas they maligned to help them in their secession. Thunder fire your ass.

The Northerners warned against what Ojukwu and ironsi who were perpetrating nonsense in the North through the stupid unitary decree buy they refused to heed to the warning, apart from the fact that Ibos were mocking the Northerners over the death of their leaders who were killed by the Ibos. The Ibos had made plenty posters which had the pictures of Ifeajuna and Ironsi standing over the lifeless bodies of Ahmadu and Tafawa Balewa. Not only this, the coup plotters weren't even sent to a northern nor Western prison like it should have been but were given a pat on the back and allowed to stay back in the eastern region while ironsi kept on lying that they were in prison which was untrue. Not just this but also, the perpetrators of the coup weren't brought under trial by Ironsi because death was the penalty for killing political leaders but Ironsi refused bring them under trial.

When the Northerners couldn't take the wickedness of the Ibos, they plotted their own counter coup and killed Ironsi with all his friends. Afterwards, they attacked the Ibos living amidst them and asked them to go back to their region. Don't forget these Ibos had taken over their jobs after the stupid unitary decree by Ironsi enabled by Ojukwu. Hence, Ibo should be the one to look inward and see the atrocities they have caused others. Only then you will heal.

I really don't know what is bad or difficult in going back to your region if you ain't wanted in another region. It's not by force to stay in another person's region and be dragging their region with them. That's greediness. I don't even think you have learned anything from the war because you are still back to your behaviour of dragging region which ain't yours. Na curse?

man! Yorubas are evil. Just look at someone sat down and wrote bold faced lies and passes it off as truths simply to turn others against igbos.

Dont quote me again bro. We knw ppl like u and we dont join issues with people like u

BeautifulMind2:
Those protesting in Lagos for Igbos to leave Lagos are the same people protesting in Anambra for one Nigeria unity, funny world

the yorubas really embarrassed themselves with their recent attacks on lagos igbos.
Imagine people claiming sophisticated but acting like touts. The same way igbos behave in kano, the same way igbos behave in abuja is the same way the behave in lagos. If igbos had the numbers pdp will always win kano. Igbos have the numbers in abj that is why pdp always win abj.. hausa people no complain...but it had to be sophisticated yorubas.

If we tell ourselves the truth as igbos we will knw that we are more friendly with hausas than with yorubas...except obj (god bless him)

Tinubu is a tout and a danger to the progress and harmony of nigeria and should be cut to size. Buhari is more humane than tinubu. Buhari is building heavy infrastructure in the east today despite we rejecting him for 5 times. Do u think tinubu would do that?

Yorubas should remember how maiduguri went from a booming town to a pariah because of attacks and violence on minorities

StOla:
Simple!

If Ojukwu had found reason to press on with a war due to Biafra's perceived non implementation of the Aburi accord by the federal government of Nigeria, then proceed knowing the consequences and be ready to surrender when it is obvious as it was already obvious from the beginning, that it was a war that can never be won by Biafra.

Rather, Ojukwu pressed on, hoping to win a propaganda war instead. Thinking, if the world see that we are suffering while fighting a war with Nigeria, the world will fight Nigeria on our behalf.

Is it not stupid that a negotiated surrender was passed up for an eventual unconditional surrender?

What then was the loss of lives for?

Instead you look for someone else from another tribe you know is peaceful, and begin to vent all the frustrations of your war time losses on him as though he gave you a false hope of help to win the war, or he commanded an army that could have come to your rescue, or drag his own tribe into a war because of you.

Even the help that Awolowo rendered with his position in the cabinet of Gowon to ensure that you feel accepted back into the country, what did he get from the Igbos in return if not their scorn and hatred?

If he had not cared like the rest of the war time cabinet of Gowon, who actually wanted the Igbos to suffer some more even after the war, then your hate would have been justified.

Rather, like cowards you aggressively hate the one you know you have no reason to fear, while whispering beneath your breath in the presence of those who have instilled fear in you.

bro..i wont lie to u...ojukwu made a mistake at the begining and it was hard to correct later in the war...

But let me ask u...do u think things would have turned out better for the east and west if ojukwu and awolowo teamed up in that fight?

Remember that no matter hw u hate the igbos....igbos didnt come together and decide to do a coup. Infact the igbos who were involved in that coul were mostly living in north and lagos at the time. And remember that wat started the war is wat is currently happening in middle belt whr hausa-fulani are killing people while the president is acting like the situation was out of his control.

Take a few minutes and imagine where we would all be nw if ojukwu and awolowo decided to declare south nigeria republic. I dont blame ojukwu for seceding...he was not zik who was for one nigeria...but i blame awolowo for not seceding as well. The reason is because had awolowo seceded...the north would not have won. They would just be another west african poor country struggling to enter into south nigeria

KGD10:
OSU and false narration. They use lies swear for OSU people? Look below and see the pictures of Awolowo and IBB laughing after Awolowo had gone to collect his siezed passport (his passport had been siezed by the previous government) in order to travel abroad to cure his heart problem but unfortunately, his heart gave up a week after.

OSU and stupidity, very synonymous. No amount of false narration can change the fact that Awolowo died peacefully as a baby on his bed unlike Ojukwu who was going senile while his wife abadoned him like his son stated. Yeye dey smell.

lol...u remember this pic too? This was a few days b4 abacha arrested abiola. U yorubas are smart but ur hate for igbos and blind trust of hausas keep being ur bane
U see tinubu at the back? He is about to get his from buhari https://www.tori.ng/userfiles/image/2017/jun/05/Abacha.jpg

OGHENAOGIE:
u now want to join d bandwagon of myopism

i already have. We can all be stupid too

nineone:
why are you guys like this? How is Emefiele an Igbo name? Obaigbena is a surname. And when did I tell you no Ika person bears Igbo surname?

lol...i really dont care if ika is igbo or china but emefiele is a hardcore igbo name

OGHENAOGIE:
oga which kwankwaso...u think he is d only politician in d north abi...2023 is still far though... moreover its high time we luk at d credibility and wat a Candidate has to offer in voting....stop d ethnic hatred ...d north has shown it's not party tin...bauchi Kano off d grip of apc

at the bolded...i thought so too and voted for Apc in 2015...only for them to assume power and enthrone igbo hate to almost a party manifesto.

Yorubas must pay for all the insults they were dishing out to igbos since 2015. I dont care who becomes president in 2023 so long as he is not yoruba

Denikayan:
[s][/s]

Be chest-beating!

5%

lol...the west can only bcom president in 2023 tru rigging. Kwakwaso will be president

Xander85:
India dodged a big bullet there! I bet they’ll be thanking their lucky stars they got detached from Pakistan when they did! Look what we’re suffering in Nigeria...specifically, indigenous Christian settlements in the middle-belt like those found in Plateau, Benue and Taraba states! This is why i envy the likes of Ghana who have a minority muslim population that is being managed and prevented from running things and dictating policy direction like you see in Nigeria!

I don’t know how someone as intelligent as Zik (his pan-Nigerian upbringing notwithstanding) didn’t realise the kind of spectacular failure he was setting the Eastern Region up for by agreeing to share the same country with the Northern Region after independence! At least the likes of Awo had a premonition of the dangers that lay ahead and voiced as much!

its amazing hw dubai developed. But it was because they had a very liberal emir who was also the prime minister of uae. Islam is a retrogressive religion by ideology. Look at turkey...the center of the roman empire...now a strugling country.

Talking about zik and his stupidity pains me so much. We could have been as developed as south africa if we droped the north. Niger is the worst country in the world by all indices and niger is 65% hausa/fula and 100% muslim... With the highest birth rate in the world. We are in for a long ride in nigeria. We will feel it fully when oil becomes history.

There are 3 zones in the south. Se and ss all speak with one voice....why is sw always against their southern brothers? The north speaks with one voice but the south can never speak with one voice because the political leader of yorubas at the time will always have his own agenda.

In 1967 the igbos and the niger deltans spoke with one voice to secede. Awolowo spoke another thing because he wanted to be prime minister.

Why is the west hating on other southerners?

They say igbos like to gloat...igbos are chest beaters...yet yorubas have been running around the internet and newspapers for the past 4 years calling themselves political masters and politically sophisticated...simply because they gave buhari 60% of their vote. They have been telling igbos how power will only rotate btw north and west..if thats not chest beating...wats is?

blackboy:
This person is not IPOB but a trouble maker.

its obvious he just wants people to bash igbos this morning. Which gets u thinking how APC as a political party is built on igbo hate.

Look at what they did in lagos. Openly threatening igbos from voting. Typical of anything yoruba people lead.

Apc is equivalen of action group of the 60s. A crisis-ridden political party. Yorubas are the most uncoth nigerians and anything they lead is filled with hate and agbero mentality.

Igbo-filled Pdp ruled for 16yrs without insulting any tribe. Yoruba apc has only been in power for 4yrs and nigeria is at the verge of a civil war.

iammo:


Na wa for this people sha, i really had a good laugh. They would still tell us how lagos is no mans land

everything is not yoruba vs igbo bro. Stop insinuating urselves into every igbo talk.

Pazienza hw fa. Its exausting that this thing keeps coming up. Looking at the map of igboland...u can see that ika and ukwuani are not strategic to ndiigbo. We can not keep getting insulted because of them. Its time to listen to wat their traditional leaders say. If yhey say they are not igbo then so be it. Good riddance. Afterall switzerland prefered to be a landlocked territory than join german federation even tho they speak german.

We gain nothing with ika and ukwani

If we want to use diplomacy to maintain the igbo group..then we need to expend more time south of igboland than west.

Ika and ukwani are whatever they claim they are. No one cares. Ps i currently wrk with an agbor man and i see him being igbo weneva it suits him

Born2Breed:
What is it with this kidnapping and giving kids new identity.

The North kidnap underage Christian girls and marry them off.

The South West kidnap and use them for ritual.

South East kidnaps give them new identity,education and turn them slaves.

first of all...u cant turn an educated person to slave...2nd the SE style is still better than the north and west style

This where yoruba girls can only lead igbo girls...if i want to fvck...i will find yoruba girl...if i want to marry...omo na igbo girl o

deep thoughts...quotasystem Fiizznation come here lets talk

kollinzgee:
everybody here knowsi love women alot especially beautiful women and preferably yoruba women even though am ibo its almost unexplainable.

no long story sha maybe i will marry the one am dating now sha tolu even if my papa no gree my choice is my choice...

lol yorubas are obviously still pained about the last thread where there obsession for Igbo girls was exposed. Now this ''ibo'' yoruba boy had to open a low self exteem thread to try get some mileage... chai...i am saddend by the total childish attitude of nairaland yorubas...they bring bad names to an other wise very smart tribe like the great yoruba nation. Take ur ass out of igbo anus and see ur real enemy.

naijaguy1234:
Instead of putting your energy on why east should be developed, you are masturbating over Lagos. Stupid IPOb

lol...u see tinubu's strategy? Make jimi look like an igbo candidate.
That is not withstanding the op is yoruba and that pdp won in ondo and osun without igbo vote last 2 weeks

Tinubu supporters are evil and the real enemy of yorubas

Unlimitk:
Mumu be lying to yourself.

Lemme tell u how Yorubas view ibos,this is from a Yoruba boy to u,
If u like believe don't believe na ur problemproblem

The truthh is we vieew Ibo women as sex freaks because Ibo women are seen as prostitute here, fact! I'm not sure maybe its a stereotype or not but that's we view Ibo women.

And yoruba men like to expand their Yoruba.

There Is a saying among Yorubas . its that Yorubas don't really marry one woman.

I've seen an Hausa accusing Yorubas especially the Christians of having one wife at home,numerous girl friends outside.

The Yoruba culture doesn't limit us.

If we see a fine girl we go for her, regardless if she is Muslim or pagan or Christian.

Lemme tell u one thing that happened btewn me and an Ibo boy one day.

We were watching porn,Japanese porn precisely, and right there I told the guy I would like to marry Japanese women not because I hate Yoruba women but because I just wanted to fuvk an Asian,do u know what d Ibo guy sai.

He said he can't date a Japanese that he would rather stay with Ibo women,I asked y,he said he doesn't really other women from other places thatthat much.

So u can now see y?

Its up to you to believe me

see self indictment. Lol. Ur head should get u thinking why igbomen rarely marry outside.
Igbo men love igbo girls
Yoruba men love igbo girls
Ibibio men love igbo girls
Hausa men love igbo girls

See prominent non-igbos marrying or dating igbo girls
Ibb
Atiku
Davido
Ffk
Akpabio
Gej (yes patience jonathan is half igbo)
Akeredolu
This akinlade
Infact they are too many...ask urself why. The reason is simply because igbo culture promotes girl education and freedom. That makes igbo girls have the highest level of sophistication among nigeria women. They may not be as fine as fulani or carry big waist like yoruba...but they are classy as hell. Check amarabae

PenlsCaP:
Nope, yorubas are sellouts to the entire Souths.
They are full of betrayal just like their forefather afonja betrayed them in the past. Simply put "YORUBAS ARE SCARED D OF THE NORTH"
That's why they follow them sheepishly.


they are part of Nigeria, but not important part of Nigeria.
infact they are the ones dragging Nigerian backward with their high level off illiteracy Nigeria would have faired better in sophistication without them, because right now the whole country is forced to more at their(north) own pace.
Have u asked why northerners rejected the bill of electronic pattern of voting presented in the past?.. Oh you little child what do u know


Really?.. Yet every Lagos governorship candidate is talking with Igbos just to get their vote.
Yet Tinubu got threatened by their voting impact and decided to use thugs and police and army intimidation to stop them from voting.
The joke is on u.


"politics of hate" u said, yet IGBOS voted obasonjo and abiola(2 yoruba men).yet IGBOS voted yaradua(hausa man)
How many times have you YORUBAS supported IGBOS(ur fellow southern brothers) politically?
Bro u are A typical Yoruba man, lying and propaganda is embedded in ur DNA.
We are tired of this ur smelly propaganda and it's getting stale .SMH



Politics means nothing and IGBOS don't care about it as long as u ain't doing better than them economically and progressively.
What Igbos want is a progressive Nigeria.
North have the highest presidential points but are they not the poorest, the least educated and the most backward tribe in Nigeria?

So keep ur politics IGBOS don't need it to survive. Goodmoring

u nailed it...especially the bolded...truth is the north is only as important as the south allows it to be.

If awolowo and ojukwu agreed to secede as one south nigeria republic in 1967, the north and uk would have been roundly defeated and expelled from nigeria. We own the sea, the oil and the human capital and we have the most fertile land for agric and our population is just right...plus we have lagos....wat exactly does the south need the north for?

mrrights:
Calm down bro. Trust me, Hashim is better by far.

Hashim is a Global business man with investment in 4 continents of the world in telecoms, energy, infrastructure and oil and gas.

He his a celebrated global human rights figure

He his a top level democratic organizer, who was the youngest member of G34 that facilitated our return to democracy.

He his a principled man, who walked out of PDP as it's publicity Secretary on the basis of principle in as far back as 2005 when it wasn't fashionable to do so.

He his many things roled into one.

And guess what?

His company is currently producing about 500 megawatts of electricity for Nigeria as an independent power producer, with no kobo from government.

I can continue to mention, but this is just a little

Yoruba accent dey pain me eh

Unik3030:
we play amala politics n we have electoral value, u people play politics of hate with your 5% n u are nowhere to b found. I don't like buhari but I will vote him so he can punish the children of hate more. make buhari enter n u go know say python dance Na part 1

i said it....amala narrative

SW votes can be bought. If Atiku play his cards tight he would buy up to 40% of their votes like gej did. Then divide the north with buhari

Those guys still play amala politics

theoldpretender:
Not going to happen.

First, changing the laws....is going to be problematic. It has to go through the National Assembly...and I bet you other regions will ask for the laws to be expanded to allow for the creation of other states.

Second, decentralization. The crisis of the 1960's was caused by too much decentrailzation, which is why Ironsi ended federal government and went unitary(good intentions, but bad outcome). Plus...states are badly run right now...and decentrailztion won't make things better.....people have to change.

u profered no solution.

Ironsi did not end decentralization. It was ended by obj's 1979 constitution. Decree 34 of ironsi only sort a unified federal military govt...so that the military head of state can appoint and fire regional miltary govs. It was obj that enshrined it in the constitution.

The coup plotter never complained of decentralization...they complained of corruption and tribalism
