Eluwilussit: Why didn't you mention this in the last regime when your sisters as key minister looted this nation dry? Is all this noise about resource control? When it favoured you, ONE NIGERIA, when it did not, divide NIGERIA. 1 Like 1 Share |

IgboTyphoon: And how would the fall of Nigeria, and senseless war, help you and Nigeria? |

knowledgeable: The same deception that led Ojukwu slaughter innocent civilians while he escaped. Diaspora my foot. Libya and Syria are still counting there losses. Many alive in Syria have no relatives, father, mother, sisters and brothers all lost to war. Please beat war drums because you are in Europe... Remember somehow it would affect you too. Peace to IPOB and the rest... |

plessis: Should he take orders from state government? Taking orders for his boss or bosses is in order. Do you want a president that doesn't listen? |

jomonic: Absolutely one of the reason I relocated from the north. But my questions are these: 1. Are there no Christian in Niger Republic and Chad? 2. Why are there no ethnic violence there? My Answers are these: 1. Ethnic violence is the product of ethnic superiority complex and hate speeches. 2. There are so much hates speeches amongst the northerners towards the southerners just as there hate speeches amongst IBOs against Yorubas 3. Iyamirin is a word by the Northerners to despise IBOs. Berebe is another despising word for Yoruba. IBOs call Yoruba *ofe manu... Yoruba call IBOs... Ajekuta Mamumi... And more recently... Igbo, brown roof, Flat head, poo soup... All these hate speeches, especially those on local northern TV stations, in churches and mosques are what is causing us this pain. Way out is to love one another. And to never judge a man by his tribe but by the content of his character. My best business partner is Nigerian IBO. But he is IBO with a big difference. He had unquestionable integrity. |

jomonic: Agreed nothing can justify senseless killing. 1953 killing was an unfortunate riot targeted at Akintola's Led Action Group not IBOs. 46 people died in that riot, although Radio Biafra put it at 200. I believe 46 than I would accept 200. Why not 201, why not 199, why exactly 200? History had it that 46 people of diverse ethnic group from the south died although mostly lBO and not 200 ibos. Let's assumed 26 lBO died while other 20 others are Yoruba's and others. Let me address your question. Who was responsible for that riot, I would say Akintola's Action group, Lagosians and the press media. The Media houses exaggerated what happened in Lagos. The remote cause of the riot was the strained relationship between the Northern and Southern political leaders over the issue of self-government in 1956. This strained relationship started with a 1953 motion for self-government for Nigeria in 1956 tabled in the House of Representatives by a member of the Action Group (AG), Chief Anthony Enahoro. The Northerners did not accept the motion. The leader of the Northern People's Congress (NPC) and the Sardauna of Sokoto, Alhaji Ahmadu Bello, in a counter-motion, replaced "in the year 1956" with the phrase "as soon as practicable". Another Northern member of the House moved a motion for adjournment, a motion which Southern members of AG and the National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroons (NCNC) viewed as a delay tactics. All the AG and NCNC members in the house walked out as a result of the adjournment motion. When the Northern delegates left the House, they were confronted by hostile crowds in Lagos who insulted, jeered and called them all sorts of names. Members of the Northern delegation were embittered and in their "Eight Point Program" in the Northern Regional Legislative House, they sought for secession. The last straw that broke the camel's back was the tour by a delegation of the AG and NCNC led by Chief Samuel Akintola. That tour which was aimed at campaigning for self-government acted as the immediate cause of the Kano riot. It sparked off a chain of disorder that culminated in the riot. The riot took place at Sabon Gari an area predominantly occupied by southern Nigerians. That's nothing compared to millions of people who died during the civil war. More people died during last election than those who died in 1945. It was a mere riot. As a child I have witnessed more riots in the north. |

jomonic: A whole general in the Nigeria Army is what you called ordinary herdsman? A former head of states? So what's Ojukwu? What's Ironsi? What's Kanu? 1. Remember Only MDs of Nigeria Banks in Ghana are Nigerians. Think Diamond, Think Zenith... 2. Remember you would become as expatriate, meaning you would need VISA to Kano/Kaduna/Lagos... 3. Remember your property would receive maximum tax bill payable to Nigerian Government... 4. Remember that VISA to USA & Europe is harder to get... 5. Remember that IPOD territories would become like a concentration camp if all IPOB across Nigeria return to IPOB. I wish you best of luck in your pursuit Gains to Nigeria 1. No more fake drugs 2. No more fake spare paths 3. No more fake people and fake things 4. Fewer robbers 5. Fewer kidnappers 6. Fewer hate speeches 7. More funds from Nigeria Embassy in IPOB through VISA application to Nigeria 8. More Taxes on properties & Expartrait taxes 9. Drop in the value of properties...as most IPOB property owners would be forced to sell due to tax burden. 10. Affordable properties... What Nigeria would miss. 1. We would miss our in-laws... |

Abagworo: Well, thank God you know. Change your ways. Go to GTBank, you won't know its a bank owned by non IPOB. Even in the east. Go to Zenith and Diamond you don't need to ask... Tribalism breads hate... Let's stop it. All this social media jibes, Igbo, brown roof...ofe manu should stop. No race or tribe is superior. We are all human. 2 Likes 1 Share |

jomonic: Very good point. That's the evil effect of war. There is always Victims of wars, mostly children and women. Who caused the 1st coup that killed all northerner? IPOB. Do you know what it means for a northerner to trust an easterner to manage his security details? Emeka and others betrayed that trust. Trust is not given it is earned. Ironsi didn't helped matters. That did not justify the second coup but was the remote cause. Remember the law of cause and effect. Instead of IPOB publicly denouncing this act, they publicly celebrated it. Who likes that? The revenge mission and senseless killing and the war where quite unfortunate but who caused it? I wish IPOB leave in peace. No one wants to be in a marriage of unconvience but remember... The problem today was caused by IPOB. If the reason for the 1st coup was corruption why spare others of the eastern extraction? Now you guys have started hate speeches now, the acting president advised against it and you guys are angry. If war breakout today, would the president be a victim? Was Ojukwu victim of the civil war? We all make mistakes in life. We must learn to accept our mistakes and correct it. IPOB should work hard to earn that trust back. IPOB should align with a party that would feature an IBO president, they should form a coalition with SW, NC, SS and see if they won't win the election. You cannot continue to hate 4 out of 6 geopolitical zone and hope to win an election. And if you want to leave... Call for a referendum amongst yourself. If you get the required no. Go in peace... The rest of the nation would wish to see you do well. But with the greed we see the makes you sell fake products every where, with the pride that makes no IPOB want to submit to another, with this insatiable thirst for quick money... I don't see an IPOB becoming better than Nigeria even with all the deposit of Diamonds and Crude of this world in IPOB. Truth be told. |

jomonic: It's the game of numbers. Alex Ekweme, Azikiwe, Emeka and Ironsi (All IBO) were part of that 50 years. When the nation's treasury was under the control of Iweala and Dizieni you were not complaining. Resource control is the issue abi? |

jomonic: I can see that you have made up your mind. One bad thing about being convinced is that: 1. Terrorist are convinced they are right and the hope of virgins above is real. 2. Lunatics are also convinced they are sane. In fact, they believe the rest of us that claim we are sane, are the insane people. That's why l try to fact find my convictions. I want to be wrong and learn more than be right and stop learning. If you have a different view prove it. If what posted was false prove it. One love my brother. |

Why did IPOB murdered northern civilian leaders and military officers in the aborted January 15, 1966, coup d'etat? 2. Why Did Ironsi not kill Emeka Nzogwu or at least tried him for treason and why was he paid his full salary while in detention? 3. Why did it take him more than 6 months to sentence him to death as it should be? 4. Why did Inronsi pass of the Unification Decree into law?

Depreacherman: You would care when you wake up day to see IPOB take over Nigeria...then as you smile away celebrating you hear a big bang and discover you are orphan courtesy of a mysterious bomb attack on IPOB. Your entire extended family is wiped out, your nuclear family is gone. You are left alone with one leg...life would be worthless...THAT IS GENOCIDE. God forbid it happens but if it does, I pray you live to tell the stories, THEN YOU WOULD NOT ONLY CARE but wished it never happened and would never happened again. |

beamtopola:Between obj and Jonathan who fail Nigeria the most? Thank God you at least agreed they both failed Nigerians. Did you say Yoruba are evil? So Kumuyi, Adeboye, Oyedepo ...are all evil Abi? l want to assume you are too young to know what happened in 1966...IPOB couldn't wipe out the north despite Emeka Nzogwus effort....the north couldn't wipe out the IPOB in the reprisal attack...and the civil war couldn't wipe out north and east...expecting the SW to be wiped out is only a wish that good God won't sanction. |

peterbello: l partly disagree with you sir. agreed the part of the road is bad, but it is still motorable at a slow speed, the road is clearly demarcated so why would one of the driver drive against traffic thereby causing head on collision? Is it not better to arrive late, than to be the late? |

If we are too wise to join a party and too wise to vote, how wise are you to allow miscreants, market women and artisan rule over you? 1 Like |
