All Igbos should avoid the following:

1. Lekki Toll Gate Protests

2. Hausa/Fulani vs Yoruba clashes in Oyo.

3. Any civil rights movement in the South West.

4. Fulani excesses in Yoruba land

Please don’t tweet, share, comment.

Allow them face their issues. Be reasonable for now and heed to the Yorubas request that we don’t get involved in their issues.

Do this and know peace.

They are currently looking for a way to blame the Igbos for all their failures.

I think say an only omo Ibo de do yahoo yahoo?

ogbonti:
I am one of those Nigerians in the diaspora, I didnt mention bills payment because like you rightly said- he hasnt started paying bills yet so body still dey catch am- when him give oyinbo woman belle or divorce oyinbo woman and alimony and child support join, hmmmmm - okokobioko,

Yet, not like Nigeria, the worst country on earth. Remember: Queen Elizabeth's cat enjoys life more than 100 million Nigerians.

Well done Afonjas!

You were once warriors until the new generation turned cowardly when they decided to do nothing but just to hate Igbos out of jealousy and envy.

The stupid ones among you still believe that omo Ibo is still the problem they have.

Afonja don buy market for the second time...

Sai baba!
Next level!
One Nigeria!
Good morning at night, Afonjas.

Why the romance with Fulanis that do not regard your existence?

An Onitsha, Anambra State based rights group, Intersociety has said not less than 350 Igbo communities are currently occupied by state backed Jihadist Fulani herdsmen and Shuwa Arabs.

The group which made the claim in a report released in Thursday, said jihadist occupation is vicariously, if not directly aided by the Government of Nigeria and its security agencies especially the Army and the Police.

According to it, “By the combined accounts of the Association of the Eastern Town Unions, the Alaigbo Dev Foundation and the Eastern Outlook Newspaper, “as at August 2019, 139 Igbo communities, villages and locations have been occupied by Fulani Herdsmen, out of which Enugu State has the highest number with 56, followed by Anambra with 24, Imo 17, Ebonyi 12 and Abia seven. In Igbo areas of Delta and Rivers, there are 15 in Delta and nine in Rivers”.

State Backed Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen And Shuwa Arabs Now Occupy 350 Igbo Communities And Villages

Special Report: 27th May 2020

Intersociety, Onitsha, Eastern Nigeria

There are not less than 350 Igbo communities, villages and other locations now invaded and permanently occupied by the Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen and ‘imported’ Shuwa Arabs, also called ‘Cowmen’ in Arabic. The number of Igbo communities forcibly occupied by the Jihadists has recorded exponential increase from about 139 in August 2019 to alarming 350 in May 2020. The jihadist occupation is vicariously, if not directly aided by the Government of Nigeria and its security agencies especially the Army and the Police. By the combined accounts of the Association of the Eastern Town Unions, the Alaigbo Dev Foundation and the Eastern Outlook Newspaper, “as at August 2019, 139 Igbo communities, villages and locations have been occupied by Fulani Herdsmen, out of which Enugu State has the highest number with 56, followed by Anambra with 24, Imo 17, Ebonyi 12 and Abia seven. In Igbo areas of Delta and Rivers, there are 15 in Delta and nine in Rivers”.

But in our recent detailed review and update, the number has exponentially increased from 139 in August 2019 to not less than 350 in May 2020, out of which 318 were factually located and presented below while 38 others were added as ‘dark figures’ or “factually existing but not captured figures”. The ’32 added dark figures’ are likely to be found in Imo and Ebonyi States, with a fraction in Enugu State. The breakdown of the current figure of 350 invaded and occupied Igbo Communities show that Enugu State has the largest number with 72 communities, followed by Anambra with 70, Imo 61, Abia 43, Ebonyi 36, Igbo Delta 21 and Igbo Rivers 15; totaling 318 and 350 when added with a ‘dark figure’ of 32.

The geographical and geopolitical implication of this is that the Jihadist Herdsmen have roughly invaded and violently occupied two States in Igbo Land. This is on account of the fact that Enugu and Anambra State have total of 368 autonomous communities; with 187 in Enugu and 181 in Anambra, as against 350 of them already occupied by the Jihadist Herdsmen. In grand summary, while most of these 350 Igbo communities, villages and other locations have been invaded and violently occupied, some are already under attacks or on a verge of invasion and violent occupation.

The Research Did Not Include Northern “Economic Refugees” In Igbo Land
Granted that there presently are hundreds.....

Obinna Odogwu, Awka

International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law (Intersociety) has alleged that no fewer than 350 communities in Igboland have been forcefully invaded and permanently occupied by jihadist Fulani herdsmen.

This claim was contained in a statement endorsed by the group’s Board Chair, Emeka Umeagbalasi, a criminologist, and the Head, International Justice and Human Rights, Ndidiamaka Bernard, a lawyer, and three others.

I don't know why Afonjas are very stupid...(some of them ahaaa) Why do you console yourself with an unverified fact? I am on working assignment currently, you can hardly see traces of herdmen in Igbo land now. You should know that no Fulani herder in his right senses will go into bush in Igbo land. Those that attacked Ebonyi and Enugu came from other states, not in the forest in Igbo land. You should know how sour the relationship is.

Afonja, don't deceive yourself by quoting an article from a blogger who is looking for traffic. Deal with your problem and stop looking elsewhere for consolations.

"Even if they are killing our people, I still prefer them to omo Ibo..."

Wait oooh! Why the hatred on harmless omo Ibo who goes about his business without thought of shedding blood?

Amen.
Anybody that doesn't wanna see peace in this nation will never know peace all the rest of their lives.
No be curse,
Na FACT!


May the Almighty Allah bless you real good.


You have to learn how to ignore those kinda people in life.
It is in their DNA to wail like babies 24/7.
Responding to them will be a waste of time.
Pay them no mind biko!

Na one of dem be dis below.....
They have been the ones calling for our darling Daddy to sack the service chiefs, but under 24 hours that, that was done, they have changed wailing tones again!
Hypocrisy and bitterness don finish dem lives to 'one bar remaining'......

Well, illiteracy is a disease. Delta state is SS not SE. Agbor man is more of Edo than Igbo.

Since you started excluding Igbo in your affairs, let's see your progress as a country.

I still prefer Fulanis to Igbos in the South West despite their havoc.

gasparpisciotta:
Best time for this country to break up is now....

Because the Yorubas are the receiving end, Nigeria should break. Is it not the same injustice that Igbos have been complaining about for more than 50 years now. Come and divide the country, let me see you naaa. We remain one. A Fulani man will rule again in 2023. The stupidity of the Yorubas has begun to hunt them already.

INNOCENT HERDSMEN...a powerful oxymoron for literature class shaaaa

There is no TRUE/GENUINE IGBO-MAN MUSLIM. Any Igbo-man Muslim is looking for a way to fill his pocket.

Sedonxavi:
Just listen to the trash ur saying

JESUS IS WORD OF GOD and BEGOTTEN SON OF

You people mock God a lot..God does not have a son and nobody killed Jesus. All those are fabricated story.

JESUS DIED ...Who assassinate him?

JESUS WAS BURIED...imagine if Almighty GOD has a son who will dare kill is son

JESUS RESURRECTED... From grave right.

Imagine someone saying his lord and savior was killed, buried and resurrected.

Adam the first man created by God was moulded out of clay and from the mighty power of God he gave him breath and man came to existence. No mother no father. For Jesus Christ as u named him God also created him In a miraculous way. No father but with mother.

He was a messenger of GOD like Noah, Abraham and Moses. He preached about GOD. After he left some idiot started calling him what he didn't call himself.

I am not blaming u because u found ur self in there but u can search for the truth b4 it is too late instead of bragging on falsehood.

If it is false, then go and rewrite both Bible and Quran. The two Books confirm His Lordship.

IGBOS ARE:100% FOR JESUS
THE PRINCE OF PEACE
THE WORD OF GOD
THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD
THE I AM THAT I AM
THE SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD
THE ONLY ONE THAT DIED, WAS BURIED AND RESURRECTED AFTER 3 DAYS

WE, IGBOS ARE 100% FOR JESUS!

Gowon, Danjuma and those Middle Belt soldiers that killed innocent Biafrans, una good morning at night oooooh. The blood of innocent Biafrans are still crying vengeance. It's your turn shaa.

Anazp:
you are still dodging the question. Tell us what empire the igbos ran before the British came? Whose war commander ran and absconded his seat to Ivory coast? Have u heard of the aare oonakanfo? A war leader than never runs away in battle

Those things are Literature and History, Myths and Legend. What then happened when your lords wanted Ilorin? Where was A are Oonakanfo?

If Afonja sounds war drum, just go and sleep...it cannot happen.

WorldRichest:
Yorubas will never ever unite with drug pushers, armed robbers and human trafficker who ha been all over the internet calling us names that their forefathers dare not just because we defeated them in two consecutive elections back to back. Never, ever will it happen that Yorubas will unite with Flattinos.

I love this, I have been searching for this type of comment. You have left your problems and face the Igbos. Bro, wake up. If you think that Igbo man is your problem, you will enter grave before you realise yourself. It is hard for Igbo man to shed human blood. I can challenge you that no Igbo man has offended you personally before. You base your analysis on what you heard. The wise ones among you associate with Igbos and gain it. You are not into 419, not because you don't want it. It is because you don't know the way.

Igbos did not take Ilorin from you.
Igbos have no hand in your predicament in Kogi state.
Igbos are not the ones in your bushes and forests.
Igbos fought for restructuring 50 years ago, which you rejected. Unfortunately, you just woke up now to know the importance of restructuring.
Igbos have always fought for your interest, evident in Nnamdi Kanu's appeal in UNO concerning Sowore.
You are just being jealous of Igbos because they are progressing in your backyard, more than you.

Remember, Igbos are 99.999% for Christ. Your hatred can only bless them.

hopefulLandlord:
wetin go hit am? a mythical dead Jew who couldn't save himself from ordinary 3 nails yet called himself god? then his 11 idiots he runs around with stole his body and claim he rose on the third day? is it that jew? or is it the mythical Jewish god who doesn't have any problem with slavery as long as you don't enslave his chosen people, the Jews?

Foreign religions should stay in foreign lands especially idiotic religion called Christianity which originated in Israel but the Jews themselves don't believe in
do these Nigerian Christians know that there are far more Muslims and Judaism adherents in Israel than there are Christians?

The religious affiliation of the israeli population as of 2011 was 75.4% Judaism, 16.9% Muslim , 2.1% Christian and 1.7% Druze , with the remaining 4.0% belonging to minor faiths such as Samaritanism, Baha'iism or no religion

these are people whose ancestors lived during the time and saw this Jesus live and die but they don't believe he was dying for them

but a Nigerian read from a book and concluded that 97.9% of the Jews are wrong because logic favours storytelling over experiencing something, Amirite you must know Obasanjo more than the people living with and around him because you read Punch newspapers and check internet for news about him.

The worst part is the book they read and conclude on is a slavery endorsing book handed to their ancestors by their pink skinned slavemasters. a book that didnt even acknowledge your existence; or where in your Jewish mythology book called Bible is it written that Noah left israel, traveled down to the deep jungles of Africa to warn your forefathers of an impending "global" flood?

This socalled pastor is here spreading the stupid and invalid news of Christianity out of ignorance (I presume)

Every Nigerian Christian is either ignorant or endorses self deprecating stupidity

l

The writer is speaking out of frustration, going by his tone.

*How can you claim that 11 unarmed disciples defeated the Roman Soldiers (world power then) and took away the body of Jesus? Remember, the grave was secured.

Hey Mr...you cannot change it...He was killed...He died...He was buried and on the 3rd day, He rose and later, He ascended to heaven...He supervises the affairs of those that believe in Him and I have encountered Him on several occasions. He will soon come and rapture His beloved.

So, bro, it is either you believe it or not, it will not change anything. You are the one losing out. Believe or believe not, He is God. If it is too much for you, you may commit suicide so as not to hear that Jesus is Lord again. Your opinion does not matter. Some wise people, rich people, powerful people believe in Him, so who are you to challenge His Lordship?

As for me, my family and everyone under me, we will continue to serve him forevermore. When I call Him, He answers me. By mentioning His name alone, I get whatever I need.

I know this one will make you cry. I pay my tithe, I give offering, I fast for 100 days plus, I go to vigil, I speak in tongue, I go for evangelism...I am the type you call stupid and foolish Christians. But, the stupidity and foolishness are working for me.


Your claim that there are few Christians in Israel is irrelevant. As a Nigerian, how many indigens of Olobiri(first place oil was discovered in Nigeria) have oil wells? Does that deny the fact that oil was not discovered there?

baysol:
The most dumb statement of the year. You want the North of no consequence to lord it finally over us all. They are no bride in Nigerian scheme. That's why we say igbos are full of hate and brainless set of people. Only thing they know is to steal money.

Funny enough, the White men that have brain see only Igbos as people with brain in Nigeria. You can see how your cow brain has taken us 59 years backward. Your opinion about Igbos does not matter. What matters is that we are the most blessed tribe. When we come to your village, we become landlord and make you tenants. The only thing you can do is to hate.

I have 3 properties in Lagos. Nothing gives me joy to have a Yoruba tenants. I love it when they call me their landlord right there in their father's land.

Shebi una want One Nigeria, we must have it.Keep hating Igbos and just allow us to cart away with the opportunities you are too myopic to discover.

ollah1:
Yet you are crying and wailing all over nairaland.cry baby

I understand your type for quoting nairaland as your highest level. Igbos do not have slavery mentality. Conduct Buhari election 50 times, no Igbo man would bend knee. Jews never see themselves as inferior to Arabs despite the intimidations.



A region that survived bombardment from both UK, Russian and Arab military forces for 3 years, survived Buhari’s disastrous 4 years, will not stop surviving because of political positions.

Let your ignorance not swallow you.

In Nigeria's poverty index, South-East is the lowest with 26% while Buhari’s North West is the highest with 75%, Ahmed Lawan's North East, 72%.

These figures are what should form the core of every political discourse in Nigeria but no, ignorant folks are talking about South-East not getting any position?

My town with no Senator is peaceful. You can sleep with your doors open. Can people in Buhari’s Daura do same? 46 days after a high-ranking Chief and Buhari’s ADC's in-law was kidnapped in Daura, there is no words about him. Can Ahmed Lawan sleep in his home with his doors open? Can the people in his state?

The Igbo apprentice system has created more billionaires in the last five decades than politics has for the North.

You won't survive more than me.

Like I wrote before, Buhari’s re-election is the worst thing to happen to Northern Nigeria. Isn't insecurity taking over the North despite having all the posts including security chiefs?

Political positions in a dysfunctional system only benefit the few and not the masses.

Keep ranting about the South-East.

Wailers over to you

It is better to be a wailer than to ba a grade one coward and a sophisticated moroon bro. You know quite well that Nigeria is decaying but instead of some people to condemn the evil, they chose to be keep quiet because they are afraid to speak up. Some go to the extend of supporting evil because they are afraid of fellow humans.

Debaiz:
SE should better remember from the first coup that derailed the Nigerian dream cos some people are yet to forget and to tell you for a fact History never forgets. The unfortunate thing is that the SE has forgotten that they’re still paying for the crime of the first Nigerian coup that was made against every other Nigerian tribe except the SE.

If a radio station to address and educate a set of people is insensitive to you people then you people have problems deeper than any country can resolve. You need to check yourselves.

If there’s any tribe that is more of a threat to the county called nigeria, it is the people that wants the break up of the country.

The other tribe can still be educated and controlled which the FG is aiming to do but the same tribe threatening the unity of this country is angry that the government is taking steps to solve the problem.

Some idiots always show their ignorance, irresponsibility and stupidity in public.
The head of 1966 coup was Major Nzogwu from Delta State in South South, yet this idiot is busy talking about South East and coup.

Take your time to read names of coup plotters and where they are from.

Secondly, I can see how passionate you are defending Fulanis. If you are a Fulani, congrats. But remember North is not safe now. If you are from Middle Belt, your own cleansing is going on. If you are Yoruba, please know it you are their next target. You know Igbo are already their enemy. Those that support evil will definitely see one.

Inteltower:
"taking steps to solve the problem" (scoff)
yeah It was indigenes of SE that started the coup..yet why will the north also carry out their own coups
& beg your pardon what so called Nigerian dream ?
after the civil war till now what is the state of Nigeria ?
those foreign powers & North/SW that forced this abomination called Nigeria how many have Died in this one Nigeria, these aren't blood spilt in defense of country towards an alien body or country but the very internal variables such as security agencies, ethnic conflict, poverty, unemployment, depression, ?

its this abomination called Nigeria that was clearly a catalyst that brought about the first coup..even if an indigene of SE didn't carry it out, there was a high probability that any indigene of other ethnic groups would have .
and why ? we look at the character of each groups & historical past, the colonial masters left power to different groups.. the main three to specify & you expect suspicion, greed, ethnic interest, mismanagement, hatred, & fear not to be in the hearts of those leaders that represented each zone...it was only a matter of who will pull the trigger.. & you will have foreign powers at one corner placing bets in the form of siding with the north that has the numbers & centralized systems of leadership to be able to keep other ethnic groups in check to drain our natural & human resources.

Educating them my foot... the northern state governments wont do anything about their education... nah through radio they will achieve such fit. check your own reasoning

majority in the north are subjected to poverty, their elites by that means use them to carry out insurgencies becoming a threat to all other ethnic groups & you point at ipo who clearly have emerged as consequence because of a failed Nigeria

so they are the problem abi your head no correctly

.

This is the beginning.

IPOB is proscribed and Afonjas rejoiced.
Armed Herdsmen are given incentives and some Afonjas are happy, defending them.

That was how Danjuma and Gowon helped enthroned Fulani and today Middle Belt is suffering it most.

Listen Afonjas, if you succeed in helping actualize this Fulanization agenda, you will be the next victim. They won't come after Igbos because they know Igbos as enemies already.

Well, if you think they will support your presidential quest, wake up. Plans have been perfected to hand over power to El Rufai. Maybe, another professor pastor from South will deputise him.

Afonjas, wake up and stop this life of cowardice. You are too gullible. If you can challenge these people the way Igbos do, Nigeria would have been better.

Maybe you don't want them to hate you. Their hatred on Igbos does not matter. It will not make an Igbo man to shine shoes, cut nails, clean gutter, pack dirt, sell bitter cola and cola nut, sell kwulikwuli, do security job for 7k, beg as blind man, be a mobile taylor etc.

Igbos are hated, deprived opportunities, yet 75% of them are comfortable. An average Igbo man hawker , selling gala in traffic can boast of thousands of naira in his account. God is with them.

So, I keep asking, why do Afonjas panic before the Fulanis? Why are they afraid of them. I like Afonjas' peaceful nature but being peaceful does not make you a grade one coward.

Afonja and their hatred self...when did Okubote and Udo become Igbo names? This stupidity in Nigeria is getting out of hand.

BuhariAdvocate:
ipob Igbo pretend to be igbo trying to cause problem btw north and southwest. North still better than you guys from all ramifications.

Really? Northerners better than Igbos in your eyes? Let me pray for you. When there are opportunities that look like North and Igbo, may your lots become that of the North. May things associated with Northern Nigeria always come your way while things associated with Igbos elude you. Things associated with Northern Nigeria will follow you, your family and your entire generation while things associated with Igbos will run away from you, your family and entire generation. Receive it bro! Let me hear your Amen/Amin from you.

I bet you, no Igbo man has offended you before. Your judgement is based on what you heard about Igbos, not your encounter with them. Wise Yorubas and Igbos relate well in business and marriage. It is only poor people like you that kill yourselves in the name of tribalism.
