deal_ordea: You idiot's still think we Yoruba are backward when civilization started from west!!! How many of your igbo warlord could come out of the his hypnotic village to claim he fought for democracy which you as.s-hole are enjoying in these new generation!!!

Your warlord was a coward, he killed the 3 million igbos simply because he lack wisdom!! Have said this time's without number, your warlord was born with a chisco brain and he died he a chisco brain...

Don't give me that voodoo that we yoruba are backward, why are the igbo's so dieing to invest in the west Tell me who is backward in civilization!!! You come from your abakaliki village square to spout out rubbish on a owned yoruba forum!!! If we are backward, would your fore father ever think of creating a forum for Nigerians to share their thought's and views

Your big head was filled with scum stealing, raping, scamming and kidnapper!! Who is living backward life?? Your warlord think he was moses who could safe the isrealite from Egypt but got 3 millions killed.. May the soul of the millions your warlord killed hunt him in grave forever..

Peace out

Civilzation started from the west? I laugh. You people were business killing each other and worship all kinds of stones and woods while be Igbos were chillin under a democratic system and rearly fought our neighbors not to talk of our brothers unlike you know who. lol


You talk of yoruba-owned nairaland but you fail to know that it is an Igbo man who is the Father of the internet that nairaland able to be started on.

tunnytox: You're not a Yoruba man and I believe whatever history you claim to know about Yorubas are those that came out of your own mischievous imagination. A single Yoruba soldier hold a large area of territory for decades, Afonja was simply left to his fate because he betrayed his loyal Yoruba soldiers no more no less.
BTW PLS TELL US ANY EMPIRE OR TERRITORY THAT YOUR 'BRAVE' TRIBE EVER CONTROL. ALSO TELL US ABOUT HISTORY AND WHERE YOU CAME FROM.
If you can't deal with the above question pls shut the fcck up and get a fckking life.

He made a deal with the devil then got phucked.Simple. Take it or leave it. Go thru nairaland and learn our history

Mr. Globe:
lwkm... But abokis are wicked. With all that awo did for them, they couldn't even trust awo with a 24 hr presidency, No wonder he became so frustrated to the level of drinking otapiapia

ROTFLMAO!

Goddess12: Just because you make most noise does not make you majority.

I'm not one of those guys who think women should be allowed to talk back to men so shut it.

Ok, we'll just call you a religious extemist then.

tunnytox: You people keep talking about Kwara are just ignorant. Ilorin was a home to Afonja who was the then Aare ona kakanfo of Yorubaland, as tradition demands he doesn't live in the same town with Alaafin. Afonja was a very strong warrior, members of his army were mostly Yorubas and he conqued so many territories. His decision to swap his soldiers who are Yorubas with Fulanis was his greatest undoing especially having being warned. The Fulanis betrayed him and wage war against him, he called for help to his Yoruba brothers but they were reluctant to help him because of what he did for them in the past. He became overwhelmed by the war and was defeated by Fulanis who then took over the ruler ship of Ilorin.
In a nutshell only Afonja lost to the Fulanis and not the entire Yorubaland. This happend at least a century even before Nigeria was formed.
Now please tell us about your tribe exploits, at least for people that boast like you should have territories that you ruled over

Wrong. He used fulanis to do the dirty work that his weak yoruba group couldn't. Then after the fulani where done, they lit his azz up with arrows, took over his territory, and installed an Emir. This is what is called conquest,my friend.


Notice the repition of events? Gowon(the north) and Awolowo ring a bell?

deal_ordea: What is wrong with this stupid igbos... Awo did what has to be done!!! Your warlord did what he think could favour his people but he never think deeply before limping into hot molten because he lack wisdom to think!! So don't blame AWO, put the blame on your warlord... You lost and will continue to be a minority in Nigeria as long as Nigeria exist... God bless Nigeria, God bless AWO...

A yoruba man calling an Igbo minority in nigeria. I dey laugh. What relevance do you people have? Now that your master's have been decapitated by jonathan where una dey? Selling your people out for you own personal interest in not being smart and very dumb of him. Come see old man getting duped by a 29 year old. Good for him.

You all should be thanking Ibeto for fighting and breaking Dangote's monopoly in cement and also thant the FG for dismissing dangote's anti-competitive complain about Ibeto. Dangote is not lowering to price because they are being nice to the citizen's, they are doing it out of pure competition against Ibeto to prevent a huge loss in the industry for them.

It's clear that Awolowo sold his people for a presidency that he never got. So sad.

You put up a thread like this and to fuel situations more you write "Ibo" instead of "Igbo" and expect no bashing? I can assure you, if I have the time, not only will I bash in this thread, I will also open up another thread about why Awolowo "misteriously" died after IBB gave him "particular conditions". Respect and receive respect, disrespect then receive fire.

Katsumoto: First, I never told you Gowon was my leader.

Second, Gowon was negotiating from a position of strength

Third, Gowon gave in to 90% of Ojukwu's demand and refused to implement the final 10% because it would have meant that Biafra was on its own completely. Do you know what Gowon refused to implement? Ojukwu requested that Nigeria couldn't appoint another military governor for Biafra; meaning that Ojukwu could remain in his position indefinitely.

Long story short, there was nothing like a "90% of 'Ojukwu's' demand". Both men agree on Aburi Accord 100% therefore any change made without the agreement by the other party, is breaking the ageement. Gowon reneged.

At the bolded, had Gowon respected the agreement Awolowo could have been become the Premier/Head of the Western region, also, if needed be, each region could have eventually agreed to go its separate way and you would have been in an Oduduwa Republic by now. But I guess that's Ojukwu's fault, right?


At your last sentence, you are talking about 'indefinite rule', nigeria was under military rule at the time. Do most military governments not go for indefnite rule, but I guess Gowon and North's own is different,right? Come on, you can do better that that.

Katsumoto: Yes, Gowon created states to undermine Ojukwu but that was after Ojukwu refused to accept decree 8 because it would have meant that Ojukwu could be replaced by Gowon.

So in a nut shell it was Gowon,your leader, who you have to blame, not Ojukwu. Ojukwu= True federalism, Gowon,your leader= unitary-type system to a degree even worse than Ironis'.


Accept what both men, together, agreed on or accept a forced condition by the party who reneged? Please don't make me laugh.

Katsumoto: When was the unitary system reversed? How did it happen?

Gowon promulgated decree 8 to return to confederationism but abandoned the idea after Ojukwu went ahead with his secession.

Did your Gowon not turn the 4 federating regions,which Ironsi left in tact, into states?

Oh and buddy lets not talk abt the "promulgation of degree 8" and abandonment because Gowon completely agreed to the Aburi Accord then reneged. What is now the result of that? The SW crying everyday not for "true federalism".

PROUD-IGBO:
^^^Was it an Igbo man that made the statement? Or it's paining you that groups that joined you to fight Biafra are realising their mistake, apologizing and leaving remorseless pigs like you behind as the sole justifiers of an ignoble war?

Quick hint- quit using the smiley emoticon when you're angry....you come off looking like a grade one retar/ded twerp!

Cheers.

Beautifully put.

Ileke-IdI:
lol when the real war comes, I expect you to find a skirt to hide under. Chyz's skirt, right.

Don't destroy the little like i have for you grhh

Katsumoto: The real problem of Nigeria is the structure - the unitary system that Ironsi 'blessed' Nigeria with.

When you fix the foundational problems, you fix most of the problems.

You're funny. After Gowon reversed the unitary system what tin happen? The 'blessing' we live with today came straight from the Hausa/fulani and the yoruba, not Igbo.

Katsumoto: Clearly your definition of bravery and cowardice is different from the world definition.

How can any man be comparing civilians who were going on exile with a soldier whose actions had contributed to 3 millions deaths?

No one really cares whether Ndigbo reveres a coward, what annoys the rest of the world is that you lot believe you are brave but your leader dashed to Abidjan dressed like Rita Dominic and moving faster than Chidi Imoh.

Ojukwu didn't run to set up base elsewhere to continue the war, he ran leaving 3 million dead plus millions more at the mercy of Nigerian soldiers.

Why didn't Effiong cross into Cameroun to save his own as.s? He was a soldier; he waited for his fate.

You are free to poke fun at Diya; he is a coward and no Yoruba will defend his cowardly as.s.

Set up base elsewhere in which place? Ala chukwagi oso!

Accept it. One man, Abacha, turned your leads into an Olympic Sprint team.

[size=18pt]Fasehun criticises cash-less policy[/size]

By Oluwakemi Dauda 2 hours 38 minutes ago





The founder of Oodua People’s Congress (OPC), Dr Fredrick Fasehun, yesterday condemned the cash-less policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

Addressing reporters at his Century Hotel, Okota, Lagos, Fasehun accused the CBN Governor, Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, of crippling the economic activities of the Yoruba race by using Lagos as the test run of the policy.

According to him, the policy has failed.

He urged the Federal Government to abolish the policy because it is doomed to affect the economic emancipation of the Southwest.

The cash-less policy, Fasehun noted, has started taking its toll on the economic activity of the Yoruba race because, according to him, many people have been forced to keep their money at home or to take it to neighbouring countries.

The OPC founder narrated the case of a Yoruba woman, who wanted to save N20million in one of the banks in Lagos but was prevented from doing so because of the policy.

Fasehun said: “Investigation conducted by OPC has shown that the policy is not a good one because, even in Europe, people are at liberty to withdraw any amount they want from their savings and deposit any amount of their legitimate earnings.

“If the policy is a good policy and not doomed to fail, we feel the CBN Governor would have used Kano, in addition to Lagos, for the test run, instead of opening the Lagos economy to attack.

“Does it mean Mallam Sanusi loves Lagos more and Kano less?”

Advocates of the policy have hailed it as a bulwark against robbery. Besides, it fastens transactions, among other advantages.

Eziachi: June 12 was just an election, not a war and Abiola bolted to England before being dragged home, which he regretted- fact.
Every Yoruba elite except those on Abacha's payroll like Adedibu/Arisokola Aloa all bolted into exile just because of one man Abacha, there was no war. Fact
Your annoyance with Ojukwu is simple: You wanted him as a war trophy and never get over it when it didn't happen- Fact
.Whether you roasted and ate 10 million Igbos, Annang, Efik, Ibibio and some Ijaw is not the main topic of this thread.- Fact

Whether Ojukwu dressed as Miss Nigeria is not the issue and how crying General Diya wished he has the chance to dress like Jankara market women to escape than the humiliation of kneeling before goggled Abacha begging for his life.

The issue is this, your son of the soil just came out smoking against your norther former lovers and told the world how your emperor sold his conscience for a mere promised of being made the best president we never had.
That is the issue and stop talking about irrelevant things. Next time the word bolted gets you excited, always remember that you had enough bolters among you kins to fill a jumbo jet just because of one northern soldier called Sani ABACHA and his sidekick Al Mustapha.
At the heat of apartheid, freedom fighting icons like Mbeki Srn, Oliver Tambo all bolted and according to you, they are all wicked because they refused to be presented in plate to their enemies. Tinubu, Soyinka all bolted until Abacha died.

Somebody yansh don open

2mch: in the SW. More like 5times sef. Read and comprehend. BTW Chyz where have you been.

I see. Y not? i dey mehn. work and babez too much. why spend all day fighting tribal wars on NL(i respect both sides by the way. Tit for tat) when you could be out phuckin bytches and makin money?

Even before you finish yourselves? i dey laugh

Tribalists have run a muck again.

@2mch,

SInce when did yorubas because triple the amount of Igbos? ROTFLMAO!

Katsumoto: Just observe at how all the Biafrans shamelessly ignored the issue of Ojukwu charging landing fees to aid agencies who were bringing in free food to feed starving Biafrans.[size=12pt][/size]

But they will not hesitate to blame Awolowo for starvation like Awo was the Minister for Agriculture in Biafra.

You now turn from Caliphate who are bullying you to the Biafrans who don't care about you. Very manly. lol

Eziachi: So Mr that understand grammar, in your grammatical opinion, who then is Nigeria minus Biafrans?

Dee, we welcome your presence.

ROTFLMAO! It's funny but I can't help but support this. They are absolutely right for doing this! Kudos to the graduates

This is an old article.

[size=13pt]For those of you lying here, stop deceiving yourselves. It is no secret the Hausa/Fulani conquered Ilorin.[/size]

Katsumoto: Dude,

Please enrol for English Language classes.

Typical. Everyone has to agree with Oga Katsumoto or else.... Lol

Katsumoto: Damn, English grammar is so difficult for many Biafrans. It appears that many don’t know about conditional clauses and its uses in sentence construction. A conditional clause is used to express that the action in the main clause will only occur IF a certain condition/action is actualized.

Let’s take a look at what Awo said’
If the Eastern Region is allowed by acts of omission or commission to secede from or opt out of Nigeria, then the Western Region and Lagos must also stay out of the Federation.

Simply put, IF Nigeria allows the East to secede, then the West would also opt out of Nigeria. Nothing in there suggests that Awo promised/threatened to pull out of Nigeria with Biafra. The main action in that statement is that the West WILL secede and the conditional clause is IF the East is allowed by acts of omission or commission to secede. As long as the East wasn’t successful in its bid to secede, the main action CANNOT occur.
If Awo wanted to promise that the West would secede with the East, he would have said, ‘the West WILL also declare secession if the East declares secession’. In Awo’s comment, he is STATING that the secession of the East is contingent upon action or inaction on the part of the rest of the Nigerian Federation.

I dare any of you to produce a text in which Awo stated that the Yoruba were going to secede with Biafra. What concerned the Yoruba with Biafra? Was Awo your leader? Bloddy failures who bit of more than they could chew and then resorted to blaming the man who warned them severally about the contraption called Nigeria and the dangers of seceding.

At bolded, that'w where the bretrayal and deceit started. When he said Nigeria, did Nigeria not mean his Western Region, the Mid-West, and the North? So in other words he is saying "We Westerners will prevent the Easterners from seceding and if Biafra wins the war we Yoruba can no longer remain a part of what's left of what is then known to be Nigeria". Very cunning indeed.

I'm glad the truth is coming out from the horses mouth, a Yoruba. Next thing you will say he be Igbo just like you all tried to say Obasanjo's father is from Onitsha. Let the truth continue to reveal itself. All of you tribalist NL Swesterners should now eat your own throw-ups.

[size=18pt]Tension in Onitsha over mosque demolition[/size]

August 13, 2012 by Emmanuel Obe, Awka 5 Comments






Police in Anambra State have denied some Muslims residing at the Headbridge Mosque, Onitsha were attacked on Sunday by persons allegedly acting on the orders of the Anambra State Government.

Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Mr. Raphael Uzoigwe, told our correspondent that the mosque was among the structures earmarked for demolition, following the government’s decision to expand the Headbridge – Upper Iweka section of the Onitsha – Enugu Expressway.

He said government had for long ordered owners of structures in the area to relocate and that the demolition was to enforce the relocation order. He said nobody was attacked.

But the leadership of the Muslim community at Headbridge said at least 10 of their members were injured when hoodlums suspected to be members of the defunct task force on parks and markets otherwise known as Ndi Mpiawazu allegedly attacked Islamic worshipers at the mosque.

There was commotion at the Headbridge when hundreds of the Muslims poured into the street to protest the alleged attack.

Addressing reporters on the incident, the leader of the Hausa and Yoruba communities in the area, Alhaji Habib Faruk, alleged that the hoodlums numbering over 50, stormed the mosque at about 4am and attacked their members.

He said, “We got information this morning that a group of boys suspected to be Mpiawazu attacked some of our members who slept in the mosque and ordered them to leave, some of them to tried to put up resistance were attacked with axes and machetes while their mobile phones were collected from them.”

Faruk said a bulldozer was moved in a few hours after the attack to demolish the mosque.

He said, “The Governor (Peter Obi) had told us that he would provide us with alternative for us to build another mosque and transact our business. But till date, we have not seen the Governor or his representative because we see everything as ploy to sack us from Onitsha.”
