PRESIDENT OF BIAFRA NOT NIGERIA

IBO MAN WILL NEVER RULE NIGERIA !

UNA DO NOT KNOW YOUR HISTORY!

I CAN BET MY HOUSE ON THIS
Shior
Are you proud of this your statement?
Fulanis that are not Nigerians are ruling you and ruling you very badly also while killing you on your road to the farm
Your only pride is how to bring the Igbo man down.
Apart from government positions which are mediocre in nature tell me which other aspect in life that your tribe is better than the great igbos

The other two major ethnic tribes have tried their best and we can see for ourselves where Nigeria is today. A shithole with all negative indices

We can also recall that Nigeria had it's hay days when igbos were ruling or had influence in Government. But after igbos left the government scene of influence after the Civil War in 1970. Nigeria started degenerating up till this moment.

I repeat its only an Igbo man that can rescue this country because the Igbo man is a wealth creator and not a spender.
The Worst is that the spenders are even borrowing to spend.
The Igbo man will rebuild Nigeria because the Igbo man is investment savvy and not a spending freak especially for frivolities
And this is the only attitude of the igbos that will grow Nigeria if not we will just be running round circles for another 100 years just because we hate igbos

BigBashiru:
The reason you should visit the thread is so that you read all previous arguments....

In any market there's something called bid price, ask price and last price the item sold for..... what N500 note and N1000 note does is it forces last price to these denominations! Someone I know bought onions half kilo for N475 and paid with POS. if this was an open outdoor market the last price will be N500 for a multitude of reasons I don't want to repeat as I've already typed it before. But this is the basic argument.... I'm stopping here. Thanks.
What are you writing. Explain please

Do you know how many more people would have died if saraki and co had allowed him to increase fuel price, VAT, electricity bill, bank charges, bread tax, Ruga, water resources bill, boko haram amnesty, deposit and withdrawal charges, telephone tariff increase, data tariff increase, hate speech bill etc.

Saraki really saved us. Now we know better.

The problem with you folk is your approach to problems is always emotional. You do not strategize and think of a plan that will work when it comes to political issues. You rely on sentiments that are self defeating.

Will this approach get you any closer to your goal with the Ikwerres?
.
OK suggest an approach

That is what you want to believe. The alternative thought feels threatening to you
Yes it's threatening to me. I am fighting for my children
We are brothers, we once shared the same LGA with them.
Our enemies will want to capitalize on this foolish and unnecessary division to capture us one day the same thing they did to our oil after cutting us off our brothers in the upland.

Hope you know that the north control 80%of our oil which wouldn't have been possible if we were together as igbos and if our forefathers were not deceived
Hope you also know that Zamfara controls it gold while SS don't control its own oil
If we cooperate with the upland igbos these things wouldn't be happening but instead some of us are being used to to stoke division so that the pillaging of SS can continue

Our only remedy is to unite with the upland igbos for total freedom if not we will be overan one day

You say it
Does that make it so?
Its so naa
Do your survey
People outside Rivers do not know Ikwerre
They just know them as igbos especially because of their names
Outside politics, Ikwerres are igbos

The predominant and overwhelming number of Ikwerre said they are not Igbo

What is my evidence?
As part f independence negotiation before 1960 there was a colonial commission in the 1950s. The Willinks Commission.

It was attended by minority groups afraid that they would be marginalised.

The Ikwerre were represented. Was any other know Igbo group represented?
the NCNC imposed a candidate from ABA in the 1965 election.
The Ikwerre reacted by fielding an independent candidate Ikwunga Wonodi. who disgraced the ABA man Elugwaraonu.
Ogbakor Ikwerre is older than Ohanaeze
In 1979 the Ikwerre secure recognition in the 1979 constitution as a distinct group . We cannot pretend that a majority of Ikwerres identify as Igbo. Stop deceiving yourself
That recognition is only on paper but not pervasive

This kind of remark is motivated by spitefulness that is typical

There are many different kinds of bells to ring

The Ikwerre are not competing with you they jus want to be LEFT ALONE
You want to be left alone.
Why are you using my names and identities to give my tribe a bad name in case you commit crime as in the case of chukwuma Nzeogwu from delta state which you all tagged as Igbo coup

You are getting emotional which is typical

can you stick to reality

I happen to know many Ikwerres and their history just like the Oba of Benid does and the Sultan of Sokoto does
All these denials are your own imagination

When Kay Williamson a foremost linguist researched the Ikwerre language where was she from?

Yet you persist in this delusion that no one knows Ikwerre

Yet Ikwerre was recognized in the 1979 constitution



They have said they are not Igbo

Give it a rest
Some Ikwerres said that they are not Igbos and some others said that they are igbos

So why not give a balanced point for the two groups instead you are happy and masturbating about the ones that said they are not igbos

They were recognized by the constitution. Fine.
But the reality is the illustration I gave you that about how they will be questioned if they introduce themselves as Ikwerres.
But what I know is that they only claim non igbo in Rivers state but outside they all introduce themselves as igbos because they don't want questionings which is the reality

They are not known
My 75 yrs old landlord in Lagos here does not know them. They just all know them as igbos and that's the reality

It is not my job to differentiate Ikwerres .That is the job of the Ikwerre man which he is doing
But why is it now your job to continue to stress it to us that we igbos from the SOUTH South are not igbos.
Any Ikwerre man that says he is not igbo that one concerns him. As far as I know he doesn't have an identity outside Rivers State or Nigeria.
Anytime he introduces himself as an Ikwerre man outside Rivers State he should be ready for more questions from the person he is introducing himself to.
Outside Rivers state you cannot introduce yourself as an Ikwerre to a Yoruba in ibadan or an hausa in kaduna without evoking a wrinkled forehead to show his surprise.
You will be asked where Ikwerre is located. You will be asked which language you speak. They will ask you which state is that.

How many people will you be ready to be explaining to.
I see this act of igbo denial as foolishness
Politically Ikwerre will become minority in Rivers state without the igbo support.

Wike just want to spoil market for all other upcoming Ikwerre politicians and that is selfish on his part

Bros God bless you. I have not repeated this not to fall into the trap of hate speech. Ikwerre perception is that of seeing Igbo people as slaves. That is what I grew up to know. Any time they needed slave went into Igbo land to look for one.
How can you turn around to call him someone he had always called slave? That's the problem.
The name Ikwerre does not ring more bell than the igbos anywhere in the world

Under the Benin empire, the independence and the rights of every tribes that made up the empire was sacrosanct. Tribes were allowed to retained their various identities otherwise most southern and middle belt Nigeria would have been known today as simply Benin because the empire had the military might to have decreed so.

The Igbo is currently trying to build an empire by claiming people who have been independent tribes for centuries. You guys in your delusions think that because you pronounced a tribe Igbo, they automatically become Igbo. People should be comfortable enough to buy into the Igbo project. Ikwerre don't want another layer of Identity, they are happy being Ikwerre and Nigerians not Ikwerre, Igbo and then Nigerians.

Igbo was just a name to bring various erstwhile independent tribes together under a social political umbrella. It's nothing but a club or union of tribes that people can become part of if they are comfortable enough or exit or not even want to be part of.

Igbo/Biafra is not different from what Bendel used to be for Edo/Delta people. You guys should be contended with your five south eastern states.

I am surprised you guys are also not claiming Benin as Igbo because Benin actually shares numerous words with same meanings with various Igbo tribes. There is also similarities in culture, the market days and new year's festival. I guess Benin is too well established and steeped in history for you guys to annexed and claim. Although Nnamdi Kanu did made the laughable claim recently.

The reason Igbo project/empire will not be able to go behold the south east like the Yoruba and Hausa Fulani have expanded beyond their primary geographical locations is Igbo don't enjoy same central cultural/religious focal points as the Yoruba and Hausas. Who will Ikwerre or the Obi of Agbor now regard as his cultural and spiritual superior in Igbo land and will the Igbos accept the superiority of Obi of Agbor. The Yoruba Ooni/Alaafin and Hausas Saultan that have these problems.
Given your submissions to be contented with the 5 SE states.
What will be the remedy for me and other igbos like chibuike amaechi and the ones in obigbo who will want to be with the other upland igbos in your so called 5 SE states.

It's we they are fighting for and not for themselves. I appreciate their selflessness

Your brain is immature. You reason like a child
But if I ask you to differentiate an Ikwerre man from Yoruba or Hausa you will quickly have hundreds of highlights to use
