Obi kerere nke Obi!

Igbokwe said the truth. IPOB is militant branch of the PDP. Else why are they mainly attacking non-PDP states? From Imo to Anambra its the same story,

For Imo, Emeka Ihedioha the bad loser, Abaribe and Wike their friend know about the insecuroty in the state. From freeing prisoners in Owerri prisons and relocating these monsters to join the illiterate IPOB locals in Orlu zone.

Why Orlu? Orlu have dominated Imo politics for years and evil Ihedioha who thought he could use Mbaise sense to hide from the scene, decided to vent his anger on Orlu by making sure that election doesn't hold there next year.

If Ihedioha feels he's has the support of Imolites, he should contest again and stop his terrorist games. Whether PDP likes or not, Uzodimma is winning next year's election.

I knew Adaka was no saint. Much to my chagrin, I've read a lot of his acts during the 12 Day Revilution. Dude was a murderer. Too bad Nigerian history elevated him as a Saint.

You are so funny, do you know how many akara verbs we have in ìgbo land there is akara used for so many things like bitter nuts , Egusi paste ,etc obodo oyibo is of Igbo origin you can argue with your keyboard

Oyibo in that Obodo Oyibo settles it. Obodo Oyibo - Land of the white man. Olaudah Equiano was the first to mention the word Oyibo in his book where he explained what the White man was called in his his part of Igboland.

More example:

The foreign item
1. Aki Oyibo - Coconut

The local derivative.
1. Aki Igbo - Palm Kernel
1. Aki Hausa - Gworo/Hausa Kolanut


2. Okuko Oyibo - Agric Foul

The local derivative
2. Okuko Igbo - Native Foul

I tell you. We have Akara and also Akanmu (Pap) note the Aka prefix in both Igbo words. The Yoruba version of Pap is Ogi. The same way one clown was dragging Ogbono before he was corrected by a fellow Yoruba is same way these ones will drag Akara, Egwusi, Oyibo and Oga. Now ask them to tell you the meaning of the above names in Yoruba and they will begin to blab.

PVision2020:
Akara and Oyinbo (Eebo) are Yoruba words (Akara was in the earliest Yoruba Bible before Ajayi crowther produced the Igbo primer) Ebukara in Yoruba means communion (breaking of bread). Okro is a corruption of its English word Okra. Egusi is debatable

One of the tribes that like dragging Igbo words are the Yoruba’s. You’ll never see Igbo drag Yoruba words like Agbero, Ashawo, Ashebi, Abi, Nko etc.
Even Igbo gospel songs have now being translated to Yoruba. Tomorrow someone will come and tell us how we copied these gospel songs from them.

Like someone said, it's time Igbo trademark these Igbo unique words like Okra (Okwuru), Oga (Ogaranya), Oyibo, Akara, Ogbono (Ogbo — when it boils, Ono — it stays) and Egwusi before some people begin to drag it with their ancestors.

Antoeni:
Okowa and Obaseki Seem to be The Most Useless Governors in South~ South

Never you add Okowa and Obaseki in the same sentence. While Okowa is working and his projects visible, Obaseki your Governor is proving why Edo made a mistake into voting him for 2nd term.

Stupid talk. So 2015 and 2019 now means NW sat in political exile. What happened to Shagari 1979-1983 and Umaru Yar'adua Presidency?

Tinubu's loyalist should speak for themselves and stop disgracing the NW.

OMENKAismad:
the toll gate is at asaba Delta state the taxi will go to Delta state nothing for Anambra

The federal government owns that bridge not state so the toll goes to the federal.

Akonamasi:
Toll gate wey boys go dynamite. FG won't make 1 naira from that toll gate no worry.

Dynamite? Which one you build Oga destroyer? Who loses if clowns like you destroy the bridge.

Ishilove:
All they know how to do is collect and collect and collect, while they give only hardship in return.

Yeah, the government haven't learnt from the Lekki toll gate and Ikoyi Bridge saga. If they did, they would have understood the anger in the land.

Toll Gate seems to be the new idea of the present government. I suppose Fashola who was a champion of Toll Gate in Lagos brought up the idea as Minister of Works.

Well before calling the toll evil, we need to look at the modalities before complaining. And also see if it will be implemented in other zones with similar Chinese loans.

Brendaniel:
Uzodinma your problems have not started, Okorocha is the least of your problems, [s]the people of IMO state and the entire south east[/s] is whom you should start begging to have mercy on you...

Clown. If you have a problem with Uzodinma meet him in Government House and sort it out not on Nairaland. Which Imo state and entire SE? Rather it's should be I Brendaniel and my sponsors.

Muslim Arabs should stop their bigotry in Palestine. Most people don't know that a large percentage of Palestinians are Christians. Palestine's have much Christians than even Isreal. It's this stupidity by the Islamic bigots that has painted the Palestine struggle as a religious struggle rather than a nationalist struggle. Imagine a stupid Sheikh trying to stoke Crisis because of a place of worship. And if you observe clearly the bigot might not be a Palestinian but want innocent people to get killed because of Mosque.

Until Palestines separate Islam from Arabism like Lebanon, they will continue to fight with no end and support in sight. A lot of people don't know that the concept of Arabism was championed by Christian Palestinians. But today it has been hijacked by Islamic bigots as a Jihadist ideology. Even the concept of Arabism is purely racial rather than religious for the ethnic survival of the Arabs.

UAE & SAUDI ARABIA, two US allied countries.

Bbkay I won't be surprises if the CIA are the ones funding these pro-Ukraine and pro-NATO handles in our cyberspace. If they can employ some Ghanians tech guys to demarket Nigeria after the anti-Gay bill under GEJ, don't you think they are currently running amok?

Let's be careful how we label most of these monickers Nigerians. The west are experts in Cyber warfare. They’ve used the Christian (US) vs Muslim (Russia) to hoodwink vulnerable Nigerians into believing that Muslims are supporting Russia and Christians US.

We should be careful with how we celebrate these praises? I don talk my own.

BKayy:
Do you know that an average Nigerian does not know that USA supported Apartheid Government in South Africa?

Do you know that an Average Nigerian doesn't know that Mandela was arrested after tip off from CIA?

Yet they shout up and down how they helped South Africa fight Apartheid yet worshipping the same West, even Mandela despise. That is how dumb an average Nigerian is.

Our people don't read. The western controlled media have brainwashed them. Nigerian foreign policy which used to be afrocentric and non-aligned is now pro-west. Very shameful. How did the name "Giant of Africa" came about? It was because of our expolits to free all African countries from the shackles of western colonialism and neo-colonialism. We sent unpaid monies to many Africa countries, bled in wars in places like Congo, and fought apartheid in South-Africa, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Angola and Mozambique to a standstill.

Many don't know that Prime Minister Tafawa Balewa demystified France when the racist country tested Atomic bomb in the Sahara desert in the 60's. Many of us need to hear the audio of a young Balewa speak in parliament to see how he sent shivers down the French spine with warnings.

Are you aware the Nigerian Minister of Foreign Affair under GEJ was the first African to support the invasion and removal of Ghaddafi Libya by NATO. South Africa and OAU were planning to hold a meeting to support Ghaddafi before GEJ made that hasty blunder in support of America. What was our reason? Ghaddafi was a threat to our national security. How? He once went to war with french puppet Chad Republic and also suggested that Nigeria be divided in half between Muslims and Christians for peace to reign. The South African government are still angry with us over that blunder.
Today we are the ones suffering the fallout of that war with arms proliferation and insurgency in Nigeria and west Africa. America who led that war in Libya are sleeping with their eyes close why we battle herdsmen, Bandit and Boko-Haram problem.

Are you aware that the current Nigerian Minister of Foreign affair foolishly supported western sanctions against Russia and voted in the UN still against Russia.

Rugaria:
It's a cultural flaw.
It's part of the reason why I would like them to be alone and run their own country based on their entrenched obaship system.
What you see there is the end product of a monarchical system. People riased under ruthless monarchies where the monarchs are deified as semi gods, seldom question authorities. They have been browbeaten over time to swallow line hook and sinker, whatever the guys on top drops at them. So when you see them get offended with you for either questioning Nigerian leaders or criticizing those in power, they're just extending their tribal reactions/obeisance to those in authority all the way to the national level. Chinua Achebe alluded to this in his book "There was a country", but instead of having a serious appraisal of their total cultural make up, they lambasted him to no end.
The most saddening part is that they seem very afraid to make corrections..

You hit the point. The first time I'm agreeing with you.

Who told you the SS have moved on? You'll be shocked that the PDP handles, the anti-Tinubu bandwagon and most dudes claiming Igbo are actually GEJ's kinsmen. Don't let a faceless forum deceive you.

Who do you think should be more pained about GEJ's removal? The Ijaws who showed you a glimpse of their anger. For example, Orubebe threats on Inec centre and the Avengers or the Igbo who are simply connected to GEJ merely by his Azikiwe and still felt he neglected the SE in terms of infrastructures.

Northernblood5:
Chai. God Bless Ukrainians. This is what I call dedication to defend your country out of love.

[s]Igbos, this is what I call patriotism to a cause[/s]. God bless Ukraine. Inasmuch as it looks as if they won't be able to be Victorious due to lack of Air power, they are still standing their ground making their points very clear to Russians "We are not Slaves

Use your tribe next time. A stupid war of attrition. By the Ukrainians wake up to see their foolishness, everywhere will be in rubbles.

alen4smith:
the Igbos are not even united .

Are the Yoruba's united?

kettykings:
It seems the only thing uniting Nigeria is the common alliance against igbo interest, let's see how this goes, thank God I never believed or supported igbo presidency

The headline is fake. No where did it say Baba refuted his Igbo Presidency support speech. The statement says Obasanjo did not endorse Ohabunwa for President and not Igbo Presidency.

Ok

Entprys:
Are you hearing me clear ?

Let us collectively resist anything Igbo moving close to nigeria presidency.

Afonja clown. You and who will do the resist? Face your failed dance alone. Whether you like it or not, you'll live to see an Igbo President come 2023.

Igbofam:
Russians have entered one chance with Putin

Very soon Google will ban them too and so will the internet. They will either revert to intranet (internet restricted to within Russia) or they go back to the good old days of Penpals and letter delivery via the post office

Daft response. For your information, the Russians were the first to go to space.

Osagyefo98:
[s]When Wike was busy slaughtering Igbos, closing down their business in Rivers state, shutting them out you all applauded him and even paid him a visit to commend him for Job well done by shutting Igbos business..

Not knowing the pendulum will swing the other way round and same arewa are now complaining..

Please Arewa carry your cross, ndigbo has been carrying theirs for long[/s]..

Remove Igbos from your gutter mouth.

A Nigerian President of Igbo extraction we stand. Igbo Presidency for equity and progress come 2023 we stand.
For me I predict the following options from the PDP and APC.

SE Igbos
Anyim Pius (PDP)
Peter Obi (PDP)
Emeka Nwajiuba (APC)
Ogbonnaya Onu (APC)
Umahi (APC)
Orji Uzor Kalu (APC)
Rochas Okorocha (APC)
Ken Nnamani (APC)

SS Igbos
Chibuike Amaechi (APC)
Godwin Emefiele (APC)
Ifeanyi Okowa (PDP)
Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala (PDP)


Other Parties
Pat Utomi
Moghalu
Ezekwesili

Pgateway:
What is your religion?

This fight has shown that religion is the reason for various types of support

Keep shit you clown. Remove that daftness from your eyes. Majority of Nigerians supporting Russia are even Christians who see the hypocrisy in the west.

Speedy and Coconut biscuit.

Esseite:
Resurrecting a dead party wont work, because a party filled with just one tribe/region is pointless in national politics.. ACN, CPC, APGA, SDP etc...

In as much as the IGBO has not benefitted from the PDP, atleast they would be benefitting the VP which inclines them to deeper national politics.

If the presidency would be micro zoned to the region, it would be best, but we both know that wont happen. A SW muslim clinching the ticket with a Northern as vice would give the SE candidate a good run because of the inroads it has built between 2015 - 2023. These bridges need to be built and it's not done in a day or few months. Which is why Peter Obi said that if its microzoned, he would contest, but if its not, "he would consider vice to probably Atiku". It's a bitter pill, but thats African politics.

Well said. A lot of intrigues will happen come 2023. But we hope it favours us despite our disadvantages. Cheers.
