Eko Ile: Ode omo Igbo. abeg face your front, my help is not needed here, he's doing a great job whooping your a/s/s all by himself and me stepping in to smack you go be cruel and unusual punishment.
bk.babe97y: Well, ure known to come from a section to whom the truth is like tar on skin; They never touch! So, I dont expect you to tell the truth now.
WTF did I edit?!
Btw, u fuxcktard, are you telling us that a good number of Ibos (10,000 or more---- dont give me a st*upid 2 or 3 names) fought on the side of Nigeria against Biafra? You piece of shiyyt is that what your telling me? So, why call others traitors if youre admitting that your own Ibo tribesmen carried up arms and fought against the actualization of Biafra?! Theres no worse a traitor than a son who wages war against, and kills, his own father!
Were the Ibos starved during the war? Yes? No? Cus I can pull up YOUR old posts if you want. You guys' deceitfulness is disgusting. You'll turn the truth on its head in a jiffy. To you theres no truth; Just the story u "FEEL" like telling at the moment.
Such a shame. . . . .
You getting mad at a people who are known not to give a damn about what you think,lol. Did Banjo and other yorubas not fight against their people? What a traitor huh?lol. Biafran Army and Nigerian Army, totally separate from the civilians,get it? The smell of frustration from a dumb-dumb yoruba due to the impeccable intelligence of an Igbo man is relieving.
The "tribalism" comment tho, was it referring to original post or the scrapping going on now btwn me and the "sheep" up there? If its to the OP I, humbly, ask :" can you (and I ask you with all sincerity) show me ONE,JUST ONE, thing that was, without with being tinged with humor, tribalism. The only wise crack I made was towards Eziachi. Beaf as Squealer? I doubt you could defend that without getting convicted here in Naira Land Court? Your trial wouldnt even last 10mins and the jury will return a verdict without leaving the pew! Whole trial---between start and when a verdict is returned? 10:48secs ---FLAT!!! I'm that confident. So, we agree with that.
Next was referring to the Ibos as the "hens whose eggs kept getting taking". You surely cant say my characterization can be described as an example of "tribalism". The pigs lived fat off the eggs of the chickens. The chickens were being underfed. They werent treated right. They revolted. They broke the eggs instead of letting the pigs continue reaping where they did not sow. Owing to the vicious nature of the pigs and how they killed with impunity; the hens felt they were as good as dead. They probably figured death was better than living as slaves and being fed scraps off the proceeds of what belonged to them in the first place! But what did the Pigs do? Did they kill the Hens for sabotaging the egg collection? fUXcks no! If there pigs were anything, they werent silly! Nobody kills the goose that lays the golden egg! So, what did they do? THEY BASICALLY, "BLOCKADED" THE HENS, STARVED THEM INTO SUBMISSION UNTIL THE HENS WERE FORCED TO GIVE UP AND START GIVEN EGGS TO THE PIGS AGAIN! STARVED THEM TILL THEY GOT WHAT THEY GOT! The Hens gave up, but in snippets as the book goes on, u'll see the hens express bitterness. You can tell theyre probably wishing they were stronger and could take on not just the Pigs, but even the rest of the animals cus they probably blamed them for not standing up to the Pigs when they (hens) revolted.
Now, replace the following:
Eggs: Oil
Hens: Ibos
Pigs: Hausa/Yoruba/Rest of Nigeria
You can even go on and pretend the Hens had a Leader named Ojukwu! Dont blame me, I'm usually one with a book when Im reading it. But I'm sure u get it.
Now, apart from those three examples I just refrred to, can you show me ONE HINT OF TRIBALISM IN THE ORIGINAL POST? .
Matter fact, use those 3 examples too. Show me one hint of tribalism, because I honestly fail to see it.
I see you went back and edited you nonsense after be let you know how dumb you were,lol. And still you(duffus) still can't grow a brain. Since when did the Nigerian forces not consist of Igbos too? Since when where the people starved only Igbos? The whole Hen and Igbo comparison makes no sense,mt eediot friend. Also, no mention of the Yorubas as a people,where they at nig? .
bashr4: that will be difficult , we have to start with one nigeria first even with all the tribal and religious conflicts ,there no other way
I disagree completely. When we have mutual respect, we have peace. You cannot foster peace in a country where everybody is fighting over that one peace of meat. If we separated we can trade amongst each other peacefully. We would have to respect each other so that we can continue receiving what we need from each other. We can be under our own laws and ways of government, so on and so forth. That is how unity is built, corruption is repealed, and Africa prospers.
jason123: What if the Northerners are still more than the SE? What will you do then?? What if it was the SE population that was over estimated and the North was under estimated?
Who said anything about the SE? Hop off and get intellectual.
EzeUche_: Well as someone said not too long ago, we should have parallel censuses like they do in Lagos state.
I agree, ethnicity included. This shoulod be down in a less obvious way because when it comes to northerners cheating buy figure is second nature. I don't think census figures should be an ingredient in the determination of revenuee allocation at all. They should be completely separated. Revenue allocation based on density by the use of satellite would be much feasible.
EzeUche_: Satellites allow countries to see population density by analyzing settlements in different locations. These powerful satellites, may not be able to count individual people, but it can analyze the number of settlements with a region.
By analyzing the amount of settlements, you can estimate the number of people present in that region. The U.S. does it all the time for military purposes.
Gbam! This is the only way the revenue allocation can be somewhat fairly allocated because these false figures can never be corrected.
bk.babe97y: Right! Im not calling you a history revisionist, a crazy, a mo*ron or typical Ibo man bent on "destroying" as usual. . . . .
Can we move on now, Isaac .A. Boro IV?
If you can come against what I'm saying then please do since I'm a "revisionist". I guess Isaac Adaka Boro led the Niger Delta Rebellion after the Biafran war in 1970, even though he died in 1968.
bk.babe97y: Right! And when Historians all over the world are: Who led the rebel side in a war against the State of Nigeria, their answer is gonna be Isaac Adaka Boro?
Ask urself, honestly, how many Nigerians have ever heard of Isaac Adaka Boro, cus the answer is pretty glaring from the answers that are usually put up when this man (Boro) is the topic!
Whether you ask people in nigeria or Japan, as long as you said the Igbos led the FIRST [/b]rebellion against the Nigerian STATE because of resources you are [b]WRONG!
Well, I dont know much about Tinubu except that he's an accused drug dealer who became a political activist then Governor in Nigeria. I used Mr.Awolowo because I equated "Rebellion", in the Nigerian context, with[b] Mr.Awo's economic, social, and educational vision for his people and (further down the road) the whole of Nigeria. He didnt get to see his vision come to light, he continually preached it, but when he (and his generation) passed on, the whole society when to the gutters; worse than they could ever imagine. Better to have an outsider ill-treat you than your own brother[/b]. . . . . .
We can all choose and pick who we think fits any of the characters. My characterization is not set in stone. My point was, if I could find as close a similarity as possible (btwn the book and real life), the more people read it, the "easier" they "found" who they felt fits the characters in the book. At least some young minds out there must have read this and have, hopefully, become enlightened as a result. Thats my sole objective, nothing else!
O shut your gaddam mouth up. The society went down the drain when the Igbos were discriminated against and taken out of the top positions. Go read on it. I hope your claming of the "whole society going to the the gutters" is isolated to your own region. That dude had enough money stolen from igbos, Ibibios,Efiks,Ijaws in the millions, yet his ass couldnt even spread out that money to his people.But i can tell you one thing he did, share it amongsts his comrads. haba haba haba, Swahhh Onyasi. Wondas shall never end with these delusional ingrates. Tufia!!!
bk.babe97y: Dude, you dont have to read into the symbolisms "verbatim"! I picked out bits and pieces; of course you know the book wasnt written with Nigeria in mind.
As for the Hens being Ibos; 1. Who was the 1st to rebel against the Nigerian State with one of the main reason for agitation being that its resources were being used to feed the rest while they wallowed in penury? 2. Did/Does the rest of Nigeria (i.e the Northerners) put the Ibos in a "choke hold" in other to take what belongs to it?
Answer those questions before you start criticizing just for the fuxck of it. . . . . .
Look at this dummy,lol. Who was the first to rebel against the "Nigeria state with one of the main reason for agitation being that its resources were being used to feed the rest while they wallowed in penury"? Is that a real question. Have you not heard of Isaac Adaka Boro and the 12 day Niger Delta Rebellion? This was way before the Biafrans went for secession. Dummy.
The way some of these posters are going along this thread, they feel it is the best thing since oil was discovered in the Niger Delta.
How can the hens be Igbo when Napoleon is GEJ?
Either way, Animal Farm is a good book though. Along with 1984.
Makes no sense, right? Exactly what I was thinking. This is an example of why we always score higher than the Yorubas on JAMB. Also, how can Awoloro be Mr.Old Major when he never led a single rebellion, neither did he ever fuel one like our beloved Chief Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu . Yorrubas pls go back to the books. Takia
I think is about far overdue that we stop basing things off of votes and population in this country. We should just go back to regional rule because clearly things aren't working and never will. Also,revenue allocation should not be based on these so-called state population figures. It would be better if it is allocated based off of population density capture by satellite of each state. Other factors that may include the determination of allocation can be sorted out accordingly.
Kobojunkie: uum . . , Jonathan appointed and retains him and the many other touts in office. What do you mean he is there to sabotage Jonathan's chances? The man made clear his stance and now retracts it probably after realizing his team may loose votes if people were informed of the true intentions of the gang before the elections have been won, and you are willing to pretend it was all a mere gaffe? What is this now? Gaffe #1021?
Aunty, its clear that the wolf has been caught without his sheep skin.What he's now trying to do is somehow convince people that he his still a sheep. He doesn't care about spoiling his party,but northern interest. The guy has to go!
It's amazing how Ezeuche has groupies to the point that they remember exactly what he said a million years ago. It also baffles me how being born as an anchor baby in the U.S. but going back to nigeria as an infant and resident is different room some one saying he was "born and raised in nigeria", maybe some of the dudes should slide off . . . . Also, since when did the word "BORN" have one solid meaning.Connotative or Denotative? Products of "free education" indeed,lol.
