Are you not osu. Cos it shows in your senseless reasoning. You don't need to deny who you are. Be proud for once.

Welcome back.

Tolerance Becoming Crime

Tolerance in this context simply means, we can't stand you but we haven't had a unanimous decision to throw you out YET.

1. Why do we hate Tinubu? What for?

Do we really? Or it's just our innate aversion to injustice.

2. Tinubu never worked with federal or Eastern Nigeria let alone stealing money from Ndi Igbo.
He never worked as Minister or taken any Federal Appointment!

Not necessarily, but how about exploiting Igbo businesses in Lagos (for example). Maybe this writer is ignorant of the fact that Igbo businesses have a different (oppressively that is) rule of engagement from other ethnicities.

4. Tinubu didn't meddle in Igbo internal affairs either!

Lagos State governorship election comes to mind. Short memory or plain ignorance.

5. Why do we call him thief? What did he steal?

Is he seriously asking this now?
Anyways, all politicians are thieves so it's not much of a point.

7. We are putting mouth in Lagos politics without caution, yet we have a proverb that says it is the foolish housefly that follows the corpse into the grave.

What does "putting mouth" even mean

8. Can Yoruba man become an Association or Local Government Chairman in the East? Let us be sincere with ourselves. Yet we enjoy all these privileges here including Assembly Membership!

Question is, how many Yoruba men will relocate to the East on their own accord? The ones here were either transferred or are here due to contingency.

10. We are here helping the "slaves" to develop their land. Who then is a slave?

We are all slaves in Nigeria. Wake up and smell the beans.

[s]11. Can Yoruba tell Okorocha "o to gee" in Owerri? He doesn't even need it. He is too intelligent to die for a
pot of ofe manu or nothing.

12. After the civil war, for many of us who were old enough to have witnessed it, the Yoruba were the first to open their arms to receive and accept us as we were, crude savages in search for means of survival. It was regardless of what we equally did to them before and during the civil war. No party to the civil war was innocent! I also remember not paying any rent among Yoruba guys without a penny for my first 3years in Lagos and another 2 years in Ibadan.

13. Can we survive Yoruba attack in Yoruba land if they actually mean to? Will an Mbaise man cooperate with the Nsukka or Afikpo, or the Imo with Anambara?

14. If we all decide to relocate at once, Babangida send me home phenomena is still in the memory of some of us who survived the incessant and uncontrollable spate of robbery across the Onitsha bridge. How many people will want to go in spide of our empty pride?

15. If Yoruba people are as foolish as we foolishly think, why agitating? How will agitating be to our benefit?

16. Why not "O to gee" in Abia, Enugu or Owerri?

17. Can a man from Aba become a Commissioner or P.S. in Enugu State Civil Service? Yet it happened here! Why not be careful.

18. We adopted APGA and but "wisely" voted PDP. How was Tinubu our headache. Was he the cause of our downfall? Why always blame others for our inabilities and want to take glory for any small thing we think we have done well and even overblow it?

19. We claim we were so creative during the civil war. Now history. We also claim every made in Nigeria is from Aba. But go to Oyo and Oshogbo to see what "lazy" mechanics are doing quietly in the automobile industry, yet we make noise that other ethnics are either mumu or lazy except we (alagbara ma mero baba ole; the most hardworking humans who cannot develop their own land unfortunately).

20. Why looking for avoidable problem? Why?

21. It was you in the North being attacked, in Malaysia being killed, in Gabon and Ghana being molested. 99.9% of Nigerians killed in South Africa are of Igbo extraction, and sometimes by fellow 'hardworking' Igbo. Why?

22. We choose Kanu and he dictates to us without consultation with any one of us. They choose Tinubu who becomes a hero among them by bowing to or adopting the choice of their majority. Why are we angry?
We choose Azikwe and they choose Awolowo. How are they more mumuish followers than ourselves?
Zik became a president and we gained from it, Awo was only a premier, but we are only struggling to beat their records in all ramifications including education till today. How are they mumus?
We choose APGA and they choose APC, why agitating?
Yoruba are yet to say Tinubu is their problem why do we want to die for nothing?
Why working in APGA but planning to collect salaries in APC?

I pray for the success of Biafra, but do we still remember that as Igbo we will automatically become foreigners on the streets of the Lagos we call a no Man's land?

How many of us will actually want to relocate home, should Biafra actualises or if if citizenship is on the condition that you relinquish all other citizenship in Africa? I leave that answer to the individual.[/s]

I stopped there because this post is dumbing me out. The author is either daft or probably an impostor hiding under a change of name.

That there have been reduced clashes between soldiers and the locals does not necessarily translate to peace. I don't know of the others but Rivers state, which has always been the major hot zone, is not exactly peaceful.

That's IF there's a nigeria by then.

Shuku0kukobambi:


I laugh when i see the bold and laugh harder when folks like you think it's purely a Yoruba problem or even a Buhari govt creation. ''The sky is falling, the sky is falling'' biko, how is it the problem of one man and his family?

We all have a problem. In-fact, Humanity as a whole has a problem. There's a clash of civilizations, a clash of culture and a clash of ideas all over the damned world not to mention the disaster of climate change and dwindling resources yet you think it's only the Yoruba man that should be bothered? Have you imagined what a conflagration in this country will mean for you and your folks as widely dispersed and nomadic as you're? I laugh at you in kasala

My dear, better get ready. There's a coming inferno that'll consume and i tell you that it wont differentiate by tribal marks. Stay there and continue wanking in glee with your brothers in anticipation of Yoruba destruction.

Enjoy

Oshigun:


You must be half-awake . Who does not know on this site that I am Yoruba and proud of that fact? You guys keep celebrating the herdsmen menace because you feel it is an Albatross around the neck of Yorubas for supporting Buhari. Violence and insecurity, fueled by illiteracy and poverty, has always bedevilled Nigeria in a cyclical manner. Remember Maitatsine menace? They used to gut Nigerians and drain their blood into drum barrels. Who defeated and wiped them out to include killling their leader Marwa? PMB. Solutions are under way already. No Nigerian leader has ever considered State policing. OBJ, Yar Adua and GEJ would all repeat Nigeria "is not ripe for State Policing". PMB has approved it. The herdsmen problem will be gone soon.

Dude, once again you've missed the point. I'm not in doubt of your identity but merely pointing out a trait that is becoming a given.

Bottom line is, the country is ignited but you're yet to come to that realization. One can only wish you bliss in your ignorance, but don't think everyone here is dumb. After reading this reply, go back again and read my last post.

My experience with Yorubas: When they make a wrong move, they aggressively cover up their regret with propaganda and holding on to a false reality. When that doesn't seem to work, they keep mum, hoping it will go away and we will all forget.

Tinubu can decide to use his little foreign influence to fight against the government of the day but...

1. he will lose his legitimacy, bearing in mind that he worked TWICE to bring this failure in government, and

2. due to his lust for power, all is as fair as collateral damage or trade off (if you please).

Oshigun:


See how r.etarded you guys have become because of premature celebration of everything you perceive to be the ridiculing of the Yorubas? What is Buhari doing today? You tell us yourself. I will help you out . PMB is showing undiluted love towards the SW. Had the bravery to honour Abiola unlike all past president to include Yoruba OBJ. Renamed national stadium after MKO. Always regularly in the SW commissioning projects. Trusts Osinbajo completely and has made him most powerful VP since 1999 with starboy free to implement initiatives like Trade moni et al. Yar Adua you guys will regard as better than PMB never trusted GEJ with power when he went abroad. Not even when he was facing death. Gbajabiamila is now speaker even as your Igbo kinsmen jostled for the position and were not even entertained with PMB insisting on Femi. Do you want me to carry on?

What this shows is that your malevolent wishes against the Yorubas will not come to pass. See Lawan, as new Senate President, already saying Yoruba must be President in 2023? Normal people reward the loyalty and goodwill others accord them. This is what Buhari and the North are doing and it cannot be any other way unless you are abnormal, haters and ingrates like Igbos who always want to reap where they have not sown.

I bolded some keywords. Anyone who is in tune with reality will see the typical yoruba-ness in this dude. The only consolation I see you giving yourself is in lettering and words.
I hope you're aware the herdsmen train has reached SW. Such kind of love.

PS: Before you make haste to save face by mentioning SE, I should remind you that we've been suffering oppression from Nigerian combined military forces for years now, so it's no breaking news. We've accepted that we're not welcome here.

somehow:
We can all see the inferiority complexed filled tribe ranting and about to destroy a thread.

How can one of the so-called major ethnic group be this paranoid and insecure?

Is it by force people align with you? why not become great first so that people then want to align or get close to you?

No one forces anyone to come close to greatness. Be great first, turn your part of the country to el dorado, and see how you will attract every other tribe to your part of the country.

Igbo people have a rethink, stop trying to claim everyone even when they are not ready to align with you.

Hausa is spoken all over the north, yet it's the Fulani that is trying to force itself on everyone. Hausa is easy going, yet they are at the man ethnic group in the north. Learn how let your attitude speak for you.

My one and only comment on this thread.

Amanismone:
inferiority complex on part of south east igbos

Do you even know what this means or you just read it somewhere and decided to use it?

Inferiority complex in this context, is, trying to DENY your roots just because you fear/abhor the [invalid] feeling of being dominated.

Inferiority complex is, making it a point to always spy on what some others are doing and try to prove you're doing better.

There are two regions who, sadly, individually fall into each category.

If you had said SUPERIORITY COMPLEX, even though also untrue, it would probably have been more applicable.

Nwadiuto247:


Oga i still maintain that Biafra is not our solution.

Same way our governors and politicians are ruling us in igbo land is what you will see in Biafra. Nothing different so dont even give me Biafra as a solution. It is not.

First of all, what do you think the problem is?
Let's start from there.

If those old men and other food-crumbs & leftover seeking career politicians of eastern extraction didn't sell themselves cheap for political patronage, we wouldn't have been in this laughable state.

Biafra is coming.
God bless Nnamdi Kanu!
God bless Chukwuemeka Ojukwu!
God bless IPOB!!
God bless Biafra, land of the rising sun!!!


I stand with Referendum.

samstradam:


There was nothing clear about his sentence as the OP said the opposite of what he meant and the poster you quoted rightly picked up on it and corrected him.

Stop supporting mediocrity.

I got the message the OP passed. He omitted a comma which made the statement somewhat ambiguous, I agree. But that's not enough ground to label someone as mediocre.

Your statement above lacks proper construction, but I read for meaning, not to nitpick errors. Should I also think you to be mediocre?

The dude would still have pointed out the error without being condescending.

TylerDurden:
...It is thus safe to conclude that a Yoruba moslem can never smell Aso Rock. A southern Christian has more chance of being President just like Obasanjo and Jonathan than a Yoruba moslem.

In Nigeria, one will be naive to assume there's anything not possible to take place. I'm sure whoever that has such ambition is also aware of these points you raised and damn well will put machinery in motion to achieve same.
You also did not put into consideration that wide scale rigging can take place. Recall that ALL security apparatus are firmly in the hands of the north, and if they see a good bargain to even support this agenda, the worst that will happen is social media rants and we'll leave it to God to judge.

EkunKekere:
Learn to express yourself more intelligently. Anyone who reads your heading will conclude that Babangida advised Abiola to pick a Muslim running mate, but he ignored the advice and picked a Christian.

The text was quite clear. It's possible that you didn't get the gist when you read the first time. It happens so there's really no need to antagonise the OP.

...yet you expect these same unreasonable northerners to agree to restructuring

Sirjamo:
[s]There are more than a billion angle to the June 12 story, you can choose to believe anyone of them. This one is certainly for the okoros, they'd love the part were MKO bailed on Anenih but forget that Ojukwu had done exactly the same thing many years before.[/s]

Stick to the discuss. Don't try to hide behind Igbos (as usual) to save face.

samueloduoye:
The Igbos are arguably the most agitated of all ethnic groups and regions in Nigeria. There’s probably nothing they don’t complain about: from federal allocations and leadership positions to perceived anti-Igbo schemes. While there may be a few reasons to justify these arguments, they usually represent a sense of entitlement that has no place in politics. These things have done quite a lot of damage to the region’s potentials in national politics.

During his inauguration as the senator representing Imo West district in the 9th Senate on Thursday, Rochas Okorocha touched on some salient points the Igbos often overlook, thus leaving them with huge political losses.

Continue reading here: https://qwenu.com/2019/06/14/okorocha-is-right-igbos-may-never-get-the-presidency-again-unless/

By "potentials", you mean presidency okwa ya?

People celebrate what they can relate with. Of what essence is June 12?

Islie:
The PDP, which had boasted of delivering bloc vote for its adopted candidate, Senator Ndume, left him out in the cold as the senator from Borno South could only secure 28 to Ahmed Lawan’s 79 votes.

The immediate past Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, was given a bloodied nose as he was trounced by Senator Omo-Agege, who scored 68 votes to Ekweremadu’s 37.

Notice the word play in these two paragraphs.

Emotionss:

The people of S/E need to wake-up. Other regions are leaving them behind politically and if the continue with this politics of hate and sentiment, I hate to imagine what the future holds for them politically.

The way some of you guys on nairaland reason though. You deride Igbos about nigerian politics yet we're all in the shit together, but I'm sure you guys will be ashamed to accept reality... that's if there's any atom of shame left in you.

You should be more concerned about what the present holds for you than a future you're not sure you'll see.

Igbos have already seen the worst. You can bet all your organs that no matter what happens going forward, we have the capability to absorb the shock. Can the rest of the South?

Mraphel:
Awolowo and Abiola the best president Nigeria never had.

Only in Nigeria Obasanjo the Grand father of corruption and most dislike politician in the West became president.

Buhari would have been regarded as such, but we know better. Which calls to question the reality of this statement.

zicoraads:

They will claim they were not served. As simple as.

You were on point.

banom:


There is nothing too dirty for Yorubas to eat

Rapugodu ndi ofe mmanu. Obi ka na amapu fa na ife ni'ne gbasalu ala Biafra.

This dispensation is a good time to be the key distributor of Sniper in the whole of SW. Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB thrives in the midst of bile generators like some people have proved to be. Their bile is nothing but fertilizer.

Let the f00ls keep it coming.

Excaperx:
Biafra includes
Abia
Uyo(if they want to join)
Calabar(if they want to join)
Enugu
Ebonyi
Imo
Anambra
River(igboid part of river state)
Asaba part of delta state.

Ijoid areas in bayelsa, river and delta aren't in Biafra same with other ethnic groups that shares no similarities with igbos.

Kanu should redraw his map and make things clear to avoid hate

Delete this useless thread to avoid konk

adekolaelect:
you try to twist unmeaningful to be meaningful yet you spew trash

The message in the picture is actually meant for you. Stop embarrassing yourself in a public forum.

adekolaelect:
ours is better we are valuable politically than you .that is why you specialising and resulted in political sabotages simply because nothing work for you .Mind you !!!!!!! You plan for what you get. it is not as if somebody put you there .why are you always blame others for your personally planed misfortunes in politic?? .you believe something must be achieved on just mar sentiment and propaganda without proper planning and focus.You can't win just by playing a game of victim . politic is what one need to lean and understand .if you can't do that stay with what you know which I think is comers .

Stale words of comfort @bolded.

Every other thing is just a bunch of incoherent rant which you lot use to cover your state of hunger and want, just because you're too embarrassed to accept that you've been making wrong choices back-to-back.

Most valued submissive political pawns.
*Spits*

Where can I register to join the countdown please

What of the herdsmen...what consequences have they been made to face?

adekolaelect:
Humm these Igbo people don't even know what they want .they are now go back to their scam leader when they failed in supporting ATIKO OBI Presidency .They even termed him Buharis supporter when he said what they don't like. it is good not to go than to go without direction.

So, you and your fellow cone-headed headslammers that know what you want, hope your lives are filled with bliss?

They will not listen I know they will come with their usual insult .

Failed attempt at reverse psychology
