Can you name one thing Igbo has done that Yoruba hasn’t done?

Most importantly teach her never ever to trust any man

When they say left she should go left

When they say up she should go down

They are all spawn of the devil 👿

seanfer:
They’ve given us clue already. His replacement will come from Guinea, remember they told us that he has a Guinean Passport.

Gajagojo:
Lol

That is not my objective
I am here to persuade and to be persuaded
I don't know everything but I know Ibos approached the last election with self interest . Yoruba
youth allowed themselves to be manipulated by superficial logic neglecting history

I can summarise Ibos for you
1. They want to dominate everyone and will do anything to achieve that
2. From independence they perceived Yoruba as greatest obstacle to that goal
3. Whether or not you believe that was the purpose of January 15 1966 coup Ironsi pursued that agenda
4. Ojukwu lost out on the July 1966 counter coup and refused to come to terms with reality pursuing a futile war
5. This refusal to face reality and live in fantasy is at the core of their self evaluation and world view
6. They blame Awolowo and by extension the Yoruba for their humiliation in the war and hope one day to see Yoruba suffer. Those who lived through the war like Charly Boy carry this baggage and transmit it to the next generation. That Yoruba betrayed them and Awolowo seized their money
7. Again with that story you find total imperviousness to any alternative logic.
8. To believe that somehow Obi would pursue a unifying agenda is funny. Let Obi point out 2 or 3 Yorubas that were close to him when he was governor or Ijaws. Even among Ibos he discriminates for Catholics.
9. He rode on the back of EndSars,anti Tinubu and antiBuhari sentiment.

But let us assume there were only 4 or 5 Ibo candidates and no other Nigerian I will not pick Obi from 1 to 10

Gajagojo:
There is no redeeming feature about Obi. You were manipulated that is all there is to. Psychologically it is difficult to admit that.


Atiku is a much better option than Obi.

Obi can only contribute in a classroom.

His instincts are obvious to anyone who paid attention when he was governor. And who pays attention to Ibos generally.

If you have paid attention properly to Ibos you would never vote one to be president

It seems like the only West African country taking Islamic terrorism seriously is Ghana.

inoki247:
Ok good luck with that....


We are not bothered with any law you guy's implemented in ur state or region buh if others do same we don't want to see tears please...

Basic123:
Because Nnamdi Azikwe opposed Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello insertion of secession clause in to the constitution because Igbo were at that time dominating. Ojukwu fought Adaka boro for declaring Republic of Niger delta and imprison him.You have resisted others when they wanted to.We will only release you people too when we are ready.

VICTIM PLAYING AS USUAL,SEE THE WAY HE WAS TALKING AS IF THEY ARE THE OPPRESSED WHEREAS IT WAS THEIR OPPRESSION OF OTHERS THAT BACKFIRED

Basic123:
Its deliberate and calculated.They are narcissists

Basic123:
Bro,I am soo disappointed in you that you tried to impress Igbo by voting OBI!

What were you thinking bro?


You have not gone than the memory lane that Igbo font appreciate and respect anybody they are not dominating?.....you didn't go down the memory lane and pass through 2011 when yorubas voted massively for GEJ and how they hijacked the government and spit on yorubas face!

I didn't vote for OBI,but when I heared he lost lagos I wan not really moved,then I opened my Facebook and I started reading Igbo people comments,I was so ashamed of being a yoruba man!...I developed so much rage for yorubas that voted for OBI immediately...why are we yorubas not smart while relating to Igbo?,have we forgotten history? ....OBI and Igbo used Christianity to divide we yorubas!
..yorubas Christians forgot that Christian-christian ticket started with Awolowo in 1979.Igbo people voted hausa fulani muslim shagari instead in 1979 and 1983...they abandoned the south and Christianity.The same set of people who hate Awolowo use hell fire to threaten my educated brothers to vote for their brother 43yrs after!

Rich4god:
Someone said that we don't sell lands locate at rural. It will help u to note that lands at rural areas are ancestral lands. Those lands were inherited from fathers to fathers. And in our culture, you will hardly see an igbo man selling his father's land. Even if an igbo man in severe poverty, he will hardly sell his inherited land. Those who eventually sale their own land will hardly sell to someone not from their village/kindred how much more selling it to someone from another state. This is a cultural thing and not because we don't want to sell the land to others.

aswani:
My utmost respect to you Belafonte for speaking your truth. A lot of people, not restricted to but especially Yorùbá's, were in the same boat as you.

Obidients can't help themselves. They won UI polling unit and flooded social media with celebratory videos. They won Lagos state in the Presidential elections and they went to Alausa to climb the street lights and sing the national anthem.

At some point sha, they must learn to calm down.

mirinder:
you don fúck big ass agbo Jedi seller b4?

sisisioge:
The Aunty obviously understands the guy better now. No more gaslighting our dear OP.

sisisioge:


They said two can play that game.... all is fair in love and war! Good job!

Maize247:
Yes, I don't think it's mandatory to hang the president portrait in any office but I think it's now official culture to do so, as it signifies the organization is truly official and loyal to the government.

Any organization that fails to do so, their details should be put here, so that the government can see them and probably figure out the reasons behind it or we forward their details to the appropriate government agencies.

Feel free to send their details here and I can assure you...

Rich4god:
I do not have much information about this riot, but the little I gathered was that this was a retaliatory riot because of that happened in the north. Am not in anyway giving it a thumbs up. Like I said, I will dig into it and get back to you.

Aside from that riot, which other riots have happened in the east and compare it to that of other regions.


Lol.... You and I knw that lots of Igbos have been condemning the killings, if you check my post too, you will see that I myself have on a number of occasions condemned the killings.

Most Igbos talk here on nairaland because of the post been created by others. Check the whole of politics section, almost every thread is channeled towards Igbos, and so this make them to speak up in defence, just as you are doing.

Ofemmanu1: Igbos are the only race in nigeria that celebrate failure. In 1982, the igbos celebrated the defeat of biafra by welcoming ojukwu with fanfare on his return from asylum haven been granted amnesty by the igbo overlords- the hausa fulani. He revelled in the fanfare and promptly married FFK left over- forgotten the over 3million lgbos that died in the war and with many of them languishing at OJI RIVER CAMP.
The second celebration is the release of kanu with the most humiliating bail conditions ever granted an accused in the annals of Nigerian justice system. A bail conditions targeted at the entire Igbo race and granted by an Hausa Fulani judge. I could not believe that with all the noise, such bail conditions will be signed. But he signed and in his eagerness to leave kuje he abandoned his two conspirators in kuje. The bail conditions wiped out the Identity of the ibos and EKEREMANDU was made the enforcer of the conditions.
Now Kanu is back at kuje prisons eating watery beans and Ekweremadu is languishing away in UK detention.

Ofemmanu1:
Now that Bola Tinubu is on the throne, instead of Igbos to lick their wounds and make alignment where necessary, they will continue the bitterness and marginalization game.
Very soon BAT will handover power back to the North and the same cycle continues.

Normally, humans live and learn but Igbos?!

They just live and shout, the'll never learn.

As usual, Tinubu has recruited faceless idiots to issue statements in the name of Ohaneze to make it seem like Ohaneze is defending a criminal who the rest of Nigeria is celebrating his arrest.

That’s how they bought and commissioned another idiot who calls himself Okechukwu Isiguzoro to issue scrupulous statements in the name of Ohaneze during the elections.

What we don’t understand is why Tinubu and Owambe boys are going this far just to tarnish the name of Igbos.

Or are they so threatened by Igbos?
