I still maintain my stance. Election was peaceful throughout South East. That they beat one man ( according to you) does not make the election violence like in South west. Forget about your claims of being smart. The statement you dug was only posted a day or two ago and you are acting as if you went to 16th century to bring it out. Ultimately how are you enjoying the product of your violence

franchasofficia:
Normally, an average Yoruba person is a coward who take every nonsense written by anybody as a threat but hides at the sound of gun shots. You guys have become so disgusting.


Endsars that Yorubas spearheaded yet you cowards can't take responsibility of breeding too many agberos in Lagos that unleashed mayhem in Lagos during the endsars, na Igbos the Yoruba default tormentor una de blame because of things Kanu said on Radio Biafra from far away London hehe. Yet it was your fellow Ronu miscreants that desecrated Oba Akiolu's palace without hiding face.


I have never seen a senseless, cowardly group of people like una, una shame de shame me. If I were you guys, I wouldn't even be saying this out cos it makes Yorubas look too weak that they are so scared of visitors even when they control the Presidency, Army, Police, EFCC, Judiciary, etc, una no get shame at all.



If Igbos hold just President, them no born any Yoruba well to make noise, Una too weak abeg, comot for road jareh, cowards

franchasofficia:
An average Yoruba is created to envy Igbo which makes them hate, abuse and attack Igbos even when they don't have any reason to do so, so dont be surprised

mightyhazel:
This one is a faceless forum..where one could claim anything and push for protests,but here is an Igbo man asking Igbos not to protest..and yet the urge to cap dust is still there..

Una get problems walahi..

I am using this medium and opportunity to forewarn all Igbos in Nigeria especially.

Please don't join any protest in Nigeria against Tinubu's government.

Let those that believe the government of the man they bragged would be the best of the best correct whatever mistake they made.

Igbos you people have done enough to make Nigeria work, now is the time to focus on your individual lives, focus on that your buying and selling trade or job/career or handwork or small firm or factory or farming business or any other legitimate thing you do to earn a living and leave them alone to carry out their protest on their own.


Remember EndSars protest that started in Delta state and later moved to Lagos which Igbos later joined in solidarity and even did massively in Southeast, what happened? They spinned the truth around and blamed it all on Igbos being solely responsible for Endsars protest to destroy their Lagos state.



So please all Igbos must stay away from any planned protest. Nigeria is not Kenya. Kenyan people are united people, they are one people, Nigerians are not.


Have it in mind as an Igbo man that you are alone when it comes to Nigeria's national politics, so don't allow yourself to be used to count scores again. Don't let them use you as their scapegoat.

Stay away from anything protest for Nigeria.


Pray to your God or whatever you worship to bless the works of your hand, focus on your family, focus on helping your family and the Igbo community around you to grow, forget about protesting for Nigeria because it's a waste of time and energy, nothing will change at the end of the protest.



Any Igbo man or woman joining any Nigerian protest is mad and should be severely dealt with by the security.


If you look around already, they are already blaming Igbos for a protest their people are calling for, so shame them by staying out of anything that has to do with protest.



They said Tinubu built Lagos, please let them give President Tinubu time to build Nigeria, he is just molding the concrete blocks and this takes time, abeg Ndigbo stay away from their family affair, don't allow them use you to settle their family fight.


Share this message on Twitter, Facebook, WhatsApp, Telegram and all channels you know let it get to all Igbos in Nigeria.


As a proud and eminent Igbo son, I love you Igbo sons and daughters so much and will never watch you all harmed in any way, please this is the best way to keep you safe in Nigeria.


Keep your eyes on your goal to succeed in life and trust in God, no matter the economic hardship, God will definitely make a way for you and your family, protesting will never help your life.


Avoid crime and engage in legitimate business and trade and be patient, God will definitely send smile your way, if I can be where I am today, it means anybody that focus on doing a legitimate business backed with sincere prayers to God on daily basis will succeed no matter the economy of the country or policies of the government of the country.



I love you all, please stay away from their planned protest because they will definitely blame the Igbos even if they see just one Igbo man join millions of them to do a protest.


Stay safe, I love you all.

Did I hear you say a man. Just a single man in a whole region. Even if few men. You can actually score them 95% credible. But across South west, a war was declared against other parties, especially Labour Party. They even rejected their own blood brother Gbadebo, calling him Chinedu, calling Obasanjo Igbo man. Causing mayhem and havoc everywhere. If you don't accept opposition during election, then we should shed elections in Nigeria. Presidents should be by appointment, selection, or outright sale to the highest bidder. Enough said please. Let us enjoy our dear Tinubu. So far he is our tribesman, we will accept the hunger and starvation for 34 years. If you cannot cope with
it, please give up. Until we decide to get sense in Nigeria.

Santalpharay:
The only disagreement was that people saw the election as a fraud,citing rigging. People can voice out if they feel cheated. Unlike the unruly behaviors from Oluomo boys threatening Igbo voters up and down. Nowhere in the whole country was voters threatened by their hosts across NIGERIA except in Yoruba land. Moral lesson. No more will anybody's personal ambition will surpass the risk to the general well-being of the whole masses. Now the hardship from Tinubu's administration exempts nobody, including Yorubas and all APC members and supporters.

Santalpharay:
I guess Buhari must also be Igbo since her support is based on tribe. You people are yet to come to terms about freedom of Choice in this country. There are many Yorubas and non Yorubas in APC, Pdp and others. Thank God you confirmed she supported Buhari. Trump and Biden both had supporters in America. But a win for one is a win for all. Now that Tinubu is the president,did the hunger spare the APC supporters? Your guess is as good as mine.

Okoroawusa:
Beremx no be wetin you talk before o! You were in support of the protest on other thread o! On those threads you didn't ask only those that voted Tinubu to come out and protect o!

Ojiofor:
Stop crying, Alex Otti is started well and he is doing great but if he derails we from Abia state will be the first to call him out like we did to OUK,TA Orji and Okezie Ikpeazu.We know how to criticise our leaders.

Ojiofor:
Whataboutism like APC blamed GEJ for 9 years and never fixed any of Nigeria problems...
Do actually expect Alex Otti to fix all the problems in all sectors in Abia state within one year?
Have your own governor fixed all the problems in your state?
Tinubu is beging to be given more time and you all are supporting him.

Ojiofor:
Alex Otti is doing his best and I know before the end of his first term he will fix most of the problems. Only PDP looters and their supporters expect him to fix all the problems they left untouched for the past 24 years they were busy looting the state dry.

Ojiofor:
Blame Ikpeazu for it even at that my own community makes we maintains our schools before government intervention.

Ojiofor:
Even without government help the community shouldn't have allowed the school get this bad.

In 2023, when Tinubu announced the removal of all subsidies and floated the Naira, Nigerians stormed social media condemning the government, venting their anger over the economic chaos as result of the policy. With the past few months, Tinubu and his looting associates in the National Assembly have enjoyed trappings of government, borrowing and spending controllably, diverted billions of Naira for the purchase of SUVs, engaging in meaning less foreign trips, funding frivolous events and phantom inflated projects, while Nigerians bear the brunt of a hyper-inflation debt ridden economy saddled with high unemployment, pervasive insecurity and high cost of living. On several occasions when the news media houses report some of the atrocities of this government, Nigerians always storm social media with negative comments, venting their anger, reigning curses and posting unprintable names on Tinubu, calling for an end to the evil APC government, a sea of unending lamentations that fill the pages of online newspapers and Nairaland threads.

With the current deplorable economic situation that Nigerians are going through, the August nationwide protests should present disgruntled Nigerians a window of hope, it should be a golden opportunity for Nigerians to rewrite their story and create a new chapter towards ending the reign of their political oppressors. This protest should be what I will term the judgment day for Tinubu and all political oppressors irrespective of their party… Nigerians have posted enough on social media, it is time for action and to lay credence to the fact that Nigerians mean what they say online regarding how they feel about their government. If Nigerians fail mobilize for the protest and grab this golden opportunity then it means that Nigerians are happy with the government and only pretend not to online, it mean the sea of negative comments I read on the pages online newspapers and Nairaland are posted by bots or foolish Nigerians who don’t know what they want. August 1st 2024 will be the day Nigerians are exposed for who they really are and what they stand for, if truly Tinubu is bad leader and Nigerians are fed up with his draconian policies, the month of August 2024 will reveal the truth about Nigerians.

Already, there are indications that the leaders of many human rights groups and national organizations like the NLC, TUC and NANS are distancing themselves from the planned protest calling on the government to initiate direct dialogue with the organizers, it is glaring that some of the leaders of these organizations are sympathetic to the government either due to inherent political interests or willful neglect of the severe economic realities Nigerians are facing. It is obvious that if this protest must hold, Nigerians should know that they can not rely on any of these organizations to help or stand with them in pushing for an end to bad government policies. Also, dissecting the Nigerian social media space, it is obvious that many Nigerians has been recruited or brainwashed to turn the protest into ethnic tribal jingoistic battle, you can even see this playing out on Nairaland as the seed of division has taken root in the heart of many users in this online forum, the “Igbo Against Yoruba” and “Yoruba Against Igbo” propaganda is winning the narrative and distracting Nigerians from seeing the true picture and what they stand to gain if in unity they mobilze for the protest, this was the same playbook Tinubu and his APC political think tank deployed to distract Nigerians while they plotted and rigged the 2023 elections. It is glaring that from what is happening many Nigerians may not turn up for the protest and just like elections, Tinubu will perform his victory dance once more and continue with his looting agenda.

It will be disastrous for Nigerians if they don’t troop out in mass to protest, the failure of this planned protest will embolden callous politicians and set a dangerous precedence for what will happen in 2027. Unfortunately, Tinubu and his media warriors appear to be winning, they have succeeded in making the planned August nationwide protest a tribal contest were Igbos and Yorubas are targeted while influential figures in the north a bought over to push a placating agenda to the northern youths.

I hope I am wrong but if after all the noise and lamentations over this government and Nigerians fail to participate in this protest then it means that Nigerians love Tinubu, it mean that Nigerians are happy with his government and deserve whatever consequences they are facing as a result of his government…. I will not take any comment I read online against this government seriously going forward….. I hope Nigerians will proof me wrong….

Bebigiby1:
You are free to peddle the official rigged narrative that Tinubu won the election…. As prices of food and services continue to rise you will eat your words in due time for supporting Tinubu’s government….

Brendaniel:
Is that why you are allowing Fulanis to kill your people in present day Nigeria so you can focus on fighting Igbos who are not killing you presently?

chopnaira:
It's their neighbours in the SS that know them very well. Some communities in Rivers don't sell lands or want anything to do with them due to their nature. That's why I can't fault Ahmadu Bello when he made the statement in the 1960s video about how they encroach.

TopBanter:
Lol. That Gidgiddy chap is Insidious by nature. The very word that suits his duplicitous, deceptive and treacherous character.

Brendaniel:
So Fulanis killing your people in your land is not domination?

Why are you people not focusing on the Fulanis killing, raping and kidnappings your people?

What Igbos have not done even 2 percent of what Fulanis have done yet you can attack Igbos physically during election while Fulanis are left alone to continue, even with Tinubu as president and Yorubas as security chiefs nothing has been done to stop the Fulanis killing and kidnapping you people in your own land..

Instead you guys focus on Igbos who are not attacking you people, something is wrong with some of you guys...

gidgiddy:
These are the women they want you to believe Nnamdi Kanu is terrorising and killing their sons

Nobody in the South East believes Nnamdi Kanu or IPOB are terrorists, only non-South easterners who want to protect their long failed "one Nigeria" believe so

gidgiddy:
I have said it here many times that Yorubas and Igbos are age-long political enemies, and that is why both tribes have no business being in one country together. They should have seperate countries of their own, otherwise, the alternative is fighting forever

Someone sent me a whatsapp caption that is going viral where Presidential aid, Bayo Onanuga, is reputed to have in admitted in March last year to using ethnic slurs on on Igbos, claiming they are a threat to Yoruba's

Did this man actually say this?

christistruth01:

I will not participate in your tribal jingoistic propaganda…

Samakus:
Yes we do. Why is Tinubu not alleviating the issues he met. Why is he performing worse than even the man he succeeded? Atleast Otti is doing better than his predecessor. Can you say the same about Tinubu?

Sirheny007:
Lagos isn't your state.
You don't even own a business in Lagos and neither do you pay tax to the LASG.

Akaegwu:
The protest is not about salary. It's all about hunger, inflation and bad governance at all levels including Abịa and Lagos. I'm currently doing fasting without prayer, hope you know what that means. The Igbos which I'm one them have resolved not to participate in any protest against anygovernment. We have resolved to face any government policies head on with our own peculiar solutions which protest is not part of it.

Akaegwu:
That's not my business either. The fact remains that he has already accepted that Abịa state government is owing it workers 18 billion. Is left for him to pay or let them decide their own action to take twas getting their money..

Sirheny007:
Go and protest in your own state of origin.
I am sure it isn't Lagos.
