Igbo should put aside the biafra agenda and look inwards.

Pursue political relevance.

Get voters card, and vote enmass.

Stop political apathy.
Rally under a leader.

djon78:
You can say that again

How I wish umuigbo go get sense walahi

We are not the worst off

Even in the North we are accommodated well

I even think Igbos should start relating more with the Northerners

At least they are honest
And will tell you where you are

But not so with others

The Igbo man has born the brunt of everything
Look at how they supported Jonathan
And in the end they suffered more persecution
More than even the Jonathan people

Igbos should just get sense for ones
Face your life
Do your business in peace
And support the economic development of South East in Nigeria

This should be the new watchword

Igbos are under a spell.

Kanu is the worst nightmare of igboland.

That relevance that Zik had even in the South south is what still continue till this day.

The hold he had in the entire eastern region is why the SE/SS still vote in the same direction.

But that union is diminishing by the day to the political irrelevance of the Igbo and a collective leadership failure.

And that should alarm any Igbo person that can think strategically.

subcbouy:
Infact the same rejection was when Irabor was made head of defence and these people still not accept him being one of them.

That is the foolishness of it all.
They overestimate the worth of the Igbo tag.

To succeed in Nigeria today in Federal politics, you shouldn't be Igbo.
So why would I choose to be Igbo if I have an option not to?

Irabor wouldn't have become CDS if he was openly Igbo.

So why would his people be openly Igbo?.
What is there to gain?

Instead of them to pursue political relevance and make themselves fashionable again, which is very possible, they are choosing the stupid way out by doing the biafra agitation.

It's a mistake to accuse ikwerre, Ika and co of denying their Igbo heritage.

What do you have to offer?
Why should they be igbo even if they are Igbo?

Even China with all her majesty is still trying to woo back Taiwan onto the fold without success.
They got hongkong by force.

And that is Mighty China.

And yet a marginalised ethnic group in Nigeria don't understand why their kin are rejecting the Igbo tag.

Lol.

Pursue political and economic relevance and everything will follow.

When it comes to a point in Nigeria where you need to be Igbo to get some high political posts, even non-igbos will call themselves Igbo.

The South South is the Igbo sphere of influence.

But you need to be relevant to assert that level of control.

When Zik was running things, you did not need to argue which part of the South south is igboland and which part is not.

It was irrelevant. All were under his sphere of influence.
And the likes of Margaret Ekpo thrived under his political wings.

That is what political relevance does.

A king that must say "I am king" is no king.

Buhari said he has spoken to South South leaders and they have assured him to deny igbos access to the sea.

I am sure he is not lying.

The south south have used your biafra agitation to cash in political benefits.

A freaking majority ethnic group playing the game of children.

Nnamdi Azikiwe would be disappointed.

Kagd10:
Of course! All you know how to do is to have a million man march in solidarity for Abacha

Most of the youths around today were not born during the time of abacha.

You are accusing the wrong generation.

Kagd10:
But the point is Igbos hardly rallied for endsar movement in the SE region! Igbos only did that in Lagos. So what are you saying exactly? Let us hear word abegi. No be today.

There were end sars protest everywhere in the South.

Phyno and flavour led a large crowd to the akwuzu Sara police station.

The video is on YouTube.
Lagos is possibly more populated than the entire East so you obviously won't see the same level of fervour.

You are Just a very tribalistic people that always see evil in altruistic actions.

Too smart for your own good.

"Omo nna" want to destroy Lagos.

Kagd10:
You dey mind them? Kanu was telling people to go and attack Tinubu during endsar movement. Is it Tinubu that's ruling over the country? Did Tinubu at any time ruled over Nigeria? No. Imagine. There was no endsar movement carried in SE region whereas Kanu was advising Igbos to go attack Tinubu and others in Lagos. That was why the "ronu" stuffs came up from some SW people.

Well, there is no June 12 protest in the East this time too.

I hope your people will not ronu again.

If every Igbo had my intelligence, they would just go on incognito mode.

Just sit down dey look everything that happens in Nigeria.

No Biafra tantrum, nothing.
Just do your business.

Where the majority swings to in any policy, swing with them there.

If that comes at a cost to any region, don't give a damn.

Let everybody start fighting their own struggle.

Those that claim they want Niger Delta republic should fight for Niger Delta republic.
If they don't, then they are obviously happy with Nigeria.

Those that want odua, should fight for odua and bear the consequences if they fail.
If they don't, then they obviously enjoy Nigeria.

Igbos offering themselves as sacrificial lambs for other regions to push their own agenda is stupid.
You are fighting for biafra, while other regions are trading your agitation to get political benefits in Nigeria.

Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Igbos are not the worse off in Nigeria.

Kagd10:
You mean Igbos protesting in the SE region would have caused "ronu" agenda in Lagos? Did you even realize that during the last end sar movement, Igbo hardly made any endsar movement in the SE region? They only joined Lagos people to rally. So what are we saying exactly?

Btw, no one asked you to join because it was only Yoruba who fought for Nigeria's democracy we enjoy today even though Buhari is trying all his best to ruin it as we speak. What Igbos was doing then was having a million man march in solidarity for Abacha, so let us hear words abeg.

But igbos that joined end sars which was a Nationwide protest, managed to cause Yoruba to ronu.

What igbos did back during the abacha era is irrelevant.
Most igbos today were not born back then and they are very pro democracy.
They are not afraid to protest.

Unfortunately, that means being used to further the political agenda of some regions.

Dey your dey and protest your protest.

Bear the rewards and consequences with your full chest.

The Yorubas that want igbos to protest are looking for a scapegoat to sacrifice on the altar of 2023 elections.

Let them bear the political costs of their actions for once.

If igbos join, then a greater "devil" has entered which will take the focus away from them.

Bar1941:
Cowardice is always in you guys blood, but you will always be first to call other tribes names. IF YOU TRULY WANT YOUR BIAFRA, THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN AN AVENUE FOR YOU COWARDS TO TELL THE WORLD YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN NIGERIA AGAIN, AFTERALL IT'S TAG DEMOCRACY DAY BY THIS ADMINISTRATION.

No it is not.

The Yoruba ronu agenda that accompanied the end sars should teach any Igbo man na.

If igbos join your June 12 protest, won't you call them completely stupid people?
I definitely would.

They were also breastfed by their mothers too and are not suffering from brain malformation.

The quality of life in the North is too poor even for Nigerian standards.

The more mature a guy becomes, the less likely he will be in pursuing a woman.

Na small boys dey use one year toast woman.

Jostoman:
nobody is planning anything against us we are in this thing together forget about what those northerners and Tinubu supporters are saying because we already know their divide and rule tactics.

Igbo people like you no too get sense.

You dey claim unity with people that will throw you people under the bus at any given gbege.

The end sars protests was turned into an anti Igbo movement in many Yoruba WhatsApp.

Una no get sense at all. Just stubborn for nothing.

And that is why una too dey collect.

I woo one lady last year.

This lady started to give me flimsy excuses.

I say okay, I will talk to you later and ended the conversation pleasantly.

The next thing I did was to block her on my WhatsApp so I won't be seeing her face.

After nearly one month, she started calling me telling me that I don't call her again.

In my mind, I was like " you are not alright, ma".

The last time I toasted a girl consistently was in secondary school.

Since University days, I don't woo girls more than once.

If I woo you once and you don't agree, it is
bye bye.

May our parts never cross again.

And I will move on to the next babe.

michoim:
This your fact check is false. I remember vividly there was a time Brent crude hit $140 per barrel under Jonathan administration

If true, it was very brief.

UstazAhmed:
Stop insulting the president, you are insulting your nation. Be patriotic for once

So Jonathan was not a president,when you and your people were insulting him in the North?

Tinubuadvocate:
Afenifere a political stunt group disguising as mouthpiece for good people of Yoruba.

Afenifere is a credit to Yoruba land.

They are the only people that makes us still believe that there are some good and decent people in Yoruba politics.

Proud of NOUN, Bsc. COMPUTER/MATHEMATICS

IF YOU ARE DULL don't go there

No one will help you, study almost everything on your own.

I am a full time programmer and a great mathematician all from NOUN.

What is the tuition for Computer science/mathematics at NOUN?

I am even planning a second bachelors degree in computer science there so that I can use it to apply for some specific jobs.

I don't need their lecture, I just need the certificate.

Confirmedzombie:
You are speaking for yourself. Buhari has done well and he is loved by All Nigerians.

We stand with Buhari

Keep hallucinating.

Nothing dey happen, we are a sovereign nation.

Venezuela is also a sovereign nation.

Go and live in venuezuela and see.

The buhari supporters in the South are only vocal online.

They can't launder Buhari in public.

Failed president and his supporters.

Confirmedzombie:
PDP and ipob pigs will keep waiting from now till enternity.

Nigerians dont take PDP & IPOB serious. Buhari has performed more than PDP 20yrs in power.

Ipob remains a terorists group and must be crushed.

PDP & IPOB are like a Dot in a circle.

Nigerians are solidly behind Buhari. The best president Nigeria ever had.

Ride on Baba, we are solidly behind you

Shame on PDP & IPOB TERORISTS

If the Nigerians are APC fanatics in the North,then you are right.

Go to any part of Lagos and talk this nonsense and see if they will not look you anyhow.
