So it's the idiot that have been posting bad things about edo state and the Bini..

I've said it countless times that the yorubas don't like us.

I've seen some news he posted about Edo state, i went to the place this idiot mentioned and nothing liked that happen..

He'll just feel bored and post nonsense about us.

Thank God I've seen you,useless yourself again and you'll be turn off.

yorubas care only about yoruba...they are no body's friend...never trust them

After imperialyoruba and westbestside will tell us u cant divide omolabi with religion

Do u guys hear this type of nonsense from the east?

goodnessme1:
You cant be Igbo and at the same time a muslim.






But i still cant understand why yoruba christians are wiser than yoruba muslims.

actually...i dare say Yoruba moslems are wiser than their christian counterpart...and it is they who will first shout that u cant divide omolabi with religion...but they were quick to create religious tension in osun wen aregbesola ordered missionary schools to allow muslims students to wear hijab...

Yoruba xtians are docile and dont realise wat is going on

ImperialYoruba:
We are not discussing population. Listen to what im saying....diversity!

If you have a staff of 50,000 and 49,999 are males, the one female staff obligates your company to acknowledge diversity and protect her interest in a way she doesnt see herself as an outsider. Its also called inclusion so people like you who may not understand what diversity is can get a grip.

If Igbos in SE are 50million and all but 10 people are muslims, the State is obligated to acknowledge and give them sense of inclusion.

Igbo muslims are crying that they are not included.

u know wat is called a 'visible minority'? Why are yoruba people always talking unintelligently wen ever they are arguing politics with igbos? All most all of u say things that dont make sense wen ever we argue here. Kinda shows me u guys have no point at all.

Igbos are 99% christians. Even people practicing other religions here are also going to church too. Therefore religion plays no role in politics here. Except catholic vs ang vs penticostal...that in itself plays little or no role because of blurred differences.

Kaduna on the other hand is a religiously troubled state with a very visible minority who have raised alarm in the past of plans to islamise them. Plans to turn their chiefdoms into emirates...

Why are u guys annoyingly dull?

Westbestside:
So why are your people shouting yorubas support buhari

why were ur people shouting igbos support gej in 2015 campaign...insulting us and calling urselves and northerners 'well meaning nigerians'. U guys brought divisive politics to nigeria. In 1953 elections that ncnc won...u guys decamped enmass to deny the leader of ncnc the premiere position.

In 1964 u guys played hate politics to the extent awolowo went to jail for treason.

In 1983 elections there was violence in the west.

In 1993 elections...for the 1st time in a democratic pairing of candidates...abiola appointed another muslim as vp and wen he was called out by christian leaders...he infamously made a statement that he didnt need eastern votes. A very dangerous and divisive comment for a candidate.

We all remember freshly the campaign of calumny u guys heaped on igbos for supporting gej...and we have also seen how u guys have gone to town to label atiku 'an igbo candidate'

Bro for real yorubas and no other ethnic group in nigeria play hate based politics. Am really getting sick of our back and forth

Westbestside:
So why then are you people accusing yorubas of hating him. Despite abandoning the yorubas, he still get 40% of their votes in the same 2015. Now that buhari is favoring them and doing what they want. So why you guys want them to vote against him? I do laugh cos it is only igbos that is carrying this atiku for head.

do wat is best for ur people and leave us to do wat is best for our people. Saying we hate other tribes and critisizing every of our moves is the height of insensitivity....nairaland jokes aside

Westbestside:
But in 2011, when yoruba supported him and he abandoned the same people that supported him and marginalised them. What do you expect them to do. Vote him in again or what. So if something is not favoring you, you are telling me you will continue with it? Tell me what you expect yorubas to do for gej when he abandoned them?

exactly....so we can agree that if u feel marginalised...u should agitate. Thats wat igbos are doing

Osagyefo98:
Spotted u again in action...

i have left the other thread for u. Gi na ihe mee!

Westbestside:
I did agree on politcs section though, but with all these, no other region shout marginalization. So why are you guys now shouting that now. Then, it was good and you guys want it to rain like that. I was expecting you to mention first in proffesions and establishment.

the ones i remember i mentioned.

Why are we shouting marginalisation? Really? So because we once had it good, we should never complaij again after having it bad for 40+ years now?

All our federal roads and school left to rot by vindictive rulers past...wat are we supposed to be shouting? Just that gej tried for us in only 4yrs...yorubas went to town shouting marginalisation and teaming up with a bigot they didnt wanna touch just 4 years earlier...look in the mirrow bro

Westbestside:
Many first you say? So the many first do not have name. Who acknowledge the east as the fastest growing economy in africa in 1965. Can you bring out the prove? So igbo dominated govt, is that mot the reason ironsi changed the system from regional to unitary just to favour igbos and no other tribe shout marginalization before the table turns and you are shouting marginalization.

The Eastern region ranked as the nation's leading palm oil producer. Late in the nineteenth century, the southern portion of the region was part of the brief Oil Rivers Protectorate, a province named after palm produce. In the early 1960s, palm oil contributed close to 90% of the region's export earnings at a time the country supplied a third of the world palm produce. To the south, towards the lagoons and the creeks fishery is a source of living.

The region in the 1960s possessed the leading commercial coal reserve in West Africa, however, competition from alternative sources of energy such as natural gas and diesel led to a rosy future for the industry. An important gas powered plant was erected at Afam and associated gas was piped to supply energy to the Trans Amadi Industrial Estate in Port Harcourt. Increasing production from oil further led to the industrial development of the Port Harcourt area towards the end of the Nigerian first republic.

The three regional governments earn revenue through direct and indirect taxes and remittances of agricultural export duties from the federal government.

No one conversant with the history of Nigeria in the I950s and 1960’s will miss the overwhelming impact of Dr M.I. Okpara on the nation. After all by 1964 he was fully in charge of the fastest growing and industrialising economy in the world- the Eastern Nigerian economy.
https://oblongmedia.net/2017/12/12/when-eastern-nigeria-was-one-of-the-fastest-growing-economies-in-the-world/amp/


As I pointed out in a public lecture in 1995, by 1964- five years after Okpara’s ascendancy to the premiership- Eastern Nigeria as recorded by a research group in Michigan State University in the US, Eastern Nigeria was the fastest growing and industrialising economy in the world – ahead of Malaysia, Korea, Taiwan and Singapore.

Abuja 26 February 2014

The 1st president, 1st speaker, 1st senate president, 1st chief of army, 1st inspector general of police, richest nigerian, 1st president of nigerian stock exchange, 1st indegenous independent uni, 1st indegenous vc of a college. The ones i can remeber.

Aguiyi ironsi actually surrounded himseld with northerners...even his adc was from north...no wonder it was easy to kill him.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/8136081_20181114114116_jpegd165b00b210a223a58b7bd6aa8cac3ff i find the highlighted prepostrous and silly. How can the jibril person say he doesnt think buhari is personally corrupt..wen in the same article he was said to have used 100 million naira (in 1997 that was like 10 billion naira of today) just to give 'a face lift' to a building.

Buhari is not just corrupt and incompetent...he is bigoted, sadistic, hypocritical and old. He represents everything wrong with africa

Westbestside:
Opportunity was given during regional system of government. Why did igbo not thrive then, why waiting for another 30years. Abi na by mouth una dey take thrive?

the richest man in nigeria in the 60s was luis ojukwu. Igbos dominated the govt in the 60s even in north and west. Igbos had so many '1sts' in the 60s..plus the eastern region was acknowledged in 1965 as the fastest growing economy in africa

hisexcellency34:
Nothing wrong here. The job of Ministry of Information is to showcase what FG is doing. Except if he is inflating the figures

lol...thats actually a wrong job. There main job should be managing issues such as internet and mobil networks...registering tv newspapers and radios. Announcing specific govt info to the public (not govt propaganda).

Alepa:
Ipobs are bastards and terrorists..
It shall never be well with them and their entire generation

chai see anger fear and deep pain

Sincinnati:
There are bro. But it’s not something to be proud of in Igboland. Christianity has made the general public frown on such people, and just until recently people no longer seek to live such life.

And if a man has 23 children and 3 wives in the north, I don’t think we should all then say that’s a lifestyle in the North.
I’m yet to see a community that has such people in their tens.

i understand ur sentiments in ur earlier post but truth is dem dey born too...like fowls. And it is the same reason that drives them to open our borders that also drive them to marry early and born everywhere.

Buhari for one is the 23rd child of his father. The emir sanusi that is talking has 12 kids already

CilicMarin:
Useless Rep!

ngeneukwenu the yoruba bigot...can we now agree that u are not better than pdp or 'nnamdi cownu' or ipob and other people u insult here daily

backnbeta:
I hope your brothers will one day allow a Christian/Christian ticket to show that religion doesn't matter but competence.

perfect reply to the bigots

Like the division of catholic n anglicans ba in Anambra ?

Are we talking about the same bigot who famously politicized Fashola's relocation of Lagos destitutes back to their states of origin while he did the same thing your Igbo brothers will testify 2 that.

https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/142192-throwback-anambra-govt-arrests-repatriates-beggars-to-akwa-ibom-ebonyi.html

How about the bigot sacking other Igbo from the state civil service ?

The same Obi whose 500 km road he built as no address in Anambra till date ?

You have no idea what you are up against. Keep running your Igbotic lying mouth about invisible Obi solution we can not see or feel everywhere.

lol...from ur answer to the guy's post and from the bolded, i can only say it seems he is up against igbophobia and nothing more.

CilicMarin:
Don't worry Kayode, The North and The West, Don't Forget, We Await The Yesterday's Biafran Chanters At The Poll....


Hausas are already keying in to the message.

ngeneukwenu u are no longer igbo? U are now north and west. Lol..

Corrinthians:
I don't care what happened. The report is trash and Obi is worse than a thief. He also doubles as a bigot.

behold a typical buhari suporter's mindset

Igbo guys

Stalwert:
But jubril is verified news?


I am sure if they had said Cownu has the cure for death you will rush here shouting oh-ma-decay... But because a man's whose Cownurdice is well documented is rightly called a coward you are quick to label it unverified.

yoruba people and their childish arguments...smh

Officially unfollowed the thread. The osagyefo98 guy plus his 50 other monikers can now rest easy that he has destroyed this beautiful thread. What his motives are to do this and who he actually is...is left to him and God. Congratulations. He stays on this thread 24/7, showing he has nothing else to do.

The thread taught me a lot tho...both good and bad. I appreciate pazienza and ckenneths.

Any serious person here who wants to act on some of our earlier decisions and need my help can send me an email.

See u all on the other end.

hammerFC:
It is wrong for a transsexual hiding behind a female moniker to give women bad name.

hammerfc...i respect u...pls dont go down like this...dony join chino in this madness bro...for real

From wat i can see from this thread so far...Anambra people are the next people that will do an 'ikwerre' on ndiigbos again.

They are the next people that will deny being igbo and start pushing for an 'omambala' tribal identity. A sad thing...but nothing concern me again....i will quietly unfollow this thread.

basilo101:
Anambra is not a people but mere geographical expression. Is it the person setting the records straight that has self esteem issues or the person with a penchant for fraud?

guy i get time to dey argue with trolls...leave those guys

bixton:
Probably you're leaving in a different country.
You don't understand the politics of Nigeria and politics of development.
Let me say since 1999 till probably about 2015, we have had Igbos from the any of the 5 eastern states in different offices both elected or by appointment on the federal side. What exactly were they doing?
So you expect someone from the north, west or south to use his position to fight for a project to be done in the east?

Please I think you should hold your kinsmen ransom for they are the cause.

Also save us the talk about the 2nd Niger Bridge a national priority because we all can vividly remember the caricature politicking the east played out about it during the last administration.

Whether you accept it or not, the east are the cause of their own problems .That is the simple truth.

ibb built the 3rd mainland bridge for the west...was he yoruba? Gej built the abuja-kaduna rail for north was he hausa? Was there any northerner or westerner who fought for those projects? Wat exactly u mean by fighting for a project? So all our leaders that have been shouting and begging different presidents for 2nd niger bridge are not fighting?

Do u know that it was stella oduah who made the enugu airport to be international and started refurbishing...do u know that the 1st thing buhari did in aviation sector was to down grade the airport to domestic and abandon the wrks going on in it? All the begging by our leaders to return the status of the airport has fell on deaf ears...it was this same airport he used last yr wen he came to the east...he saw how it was...he was begged to do sometin about it.

The lagos ibadan expressway that gej started...which yoruba leader made him to start it?

Am interested also for u to tell me exactly wat u meant by caricature our leaders made about the niger bridge in last admin. Is that one of the many wild accusations and wrong statements that u have been making since on this thread. None of the things i challenged u to prove could u prove...

bixton:
It's a sad event.
But like I said, the monies belong to the state and not the governor.
It is because every administration wants to tie itself to a project to showcase its relevance whereas in a sane world projects done are supposed to speak for themselves.
Governance is continuum.
Nice to hear you voted for PMB but if it was for the basis of completing that bridge then it was not done in good thoughts.
If all those who voted for PMB have same thoughts like you do before casting votes then I guess we are all forsaken.
And if we are to judge by the number of votes that comes from a particular region and make it a priority for placing projects then as regards the 2015 elections a lot of areas will highly be affected.

wat are u talking about....the current niger bridge is shaking because of over use....its the gateway to the east....many ppl use it. A 2nd one is a national priority...not even a regional one. The airport might be a regional priority but the niger bridge is an urgent national need...just like the lagos-ibadan-benin express way. But ppl are playing politics because they believe it only affects igbos. Tell me wat fg has ever done for the east....

I can list for u wat they have done in the north and west since 2007....tell me wat...anything at all the fg has done for the east...pls...this is urgent...am willing to list wat was done in the north and west too if u challenge me

Xander85:
I knew the sort of scum my post will draw out of the sewer.....no surprises! They know i'm referring to them hence the response!

Dude, read the title of this thread again and tell me what it says! Just to assist you in case you're as thick as your posts actually suggest: it says 'Pan-Igbo political and economic forum'! Breaking it down, it means it's a forum where like-minded Igbos with a Pan-Igbo disposition meet and rub minds together! It doesn't say 'Pan-Omambala, Pan-Ngwa or Pan-Ndoni forum'....kapish?

I'm not against anyone protecting their turf or promoting a Sub-Igbo supremacist agenda, but is it asking for too much if i ask you try to find the appropriate thread for it? Last i checked, the Anambra thread is still there, so why not take your Omambala/Anambra supremacist agenda over there and knock yourselves out?

You seem to make jest of my reply to your brother who asked if i'm Igbo. I replied that i'm from Ndoni, and for some funny reason you scoff in derision. Care to fill me in on what you find so offensive about Ndoni?

leave those scums. Many of them are igala and edo....igbo intrigue them a lot. They want to know wat makes us thick. From sports to business to education. From war to peace and stability...from backward towns to new, beautiful cities. From obsucrity to being the most talked about ethnic group in africa...thats why they are on this thread with 50 monikers...Igbo rocks

ckenneths:
Part of the reasons for building the mega state secretariat in England was to stop the problems of space and disorganised arrangement of government offices in Enugu. Eswama, ministry of finance and every other government office have good spaces in the new secretariat complex pictured below.

i know. But the issue is about the state of this building...a colonial heritage. Look at how the church maintains holyghost cathedral...or this anglican cathedral in lagos...compare it with how govt left this building. We need to refurbish that building

bixton:
I am sure they had the necessary documentation and not by word of mouth.
Now since the monies they used were their States money and not their personal money, both States can apply for a refund by any means necessary and any serious incumbent governor can follow the case up. It does not matter how long it takes. What matters is let any incumbent governor take up the case just like they partnered to do the project as long as they have their documents.

sure they may eventually be refunded...but if u are a gov...will u go and be doing fg projects wen u know u may not get the money in ur tenure? And many ppl in ur state wont even knw u are d one dat did it. Pls be realistic. The eastern govs cannot do the niger bridge...it links anambra and delta...ie SE and SS. I voted buhari because i thought he would do it...but obviously its not a priority
