I will never see myself as Nigerian first. I will always be Igbo. I have been Igbo since the day I was born and I will never give that up to a nation that was create by our once colonial master. Niggeria will never be one.

Yes it is.

When we should be putting bullets in their head and chopping off fingers, we are celebrating these buffoons.

Andre Uweh:
What sort of power or position do Ndigbo want in 1966, which they did not have, to warrant a conspiracy by way of a coup to achieve?.
In 1966, the president of Nigeria, Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe was an Igbo, the president of the senate, Dr. Nwafor Orizu was an Igbo. The Geeral officer commanding the Nigerian army, Lt Gen Aguiyi Ironsi was an Igbo.

That is true. We had it all! How the (we) mighty have fallen in the midst of batte. It makes me angry! We were once the Lords of Nigeria! In all in an instant, we have fallen from glory. But we shall rise again!

OAM4J:
Are we not?  

I understand. . . We must take his perception of Nigerian with the thought that he was looking through Western lens.

I enjoyed reading this!

I would never drive cross country! Once I reach Lagos, I grab another flight to Owerri or Port Harcourt.

Yes

I despise Kalu. My area in Abia State is a PDP stronghold, but now people are thinking about joining APGA. That is how much we despise Kalu.

Over my dead body. I intend on having house-help. I remember the young woman my father used to have as house help. She was a fine babe! 

Chei! Chineke! Kidnapping is spreading across the country. No wonder people say Naija is a failed state.

ePAYSYSTEM:
Why did you not favour Nzeogwu since your signature is
"Major Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu a hero and a true Nigerian Patriot!"

LOL!

Past Rulers. . .

Major Aguiyi-Ironsi

U are the biggest tribalist on this forum.
Everything must revolve round Ndigbo otherwise you won't have your penile erections.[/quote]Well I see you filled in the blank.

Anyway, I have always come to the defense of my people. I am a reactionary person. You strike, I'll finish.

I shall place the blame on the Y_______!  

Go back in Nairaland's history and you will see that the moderators allowed people to mock the Ndi Igbo.

People have these views, but they don't voice them in public. The same way that a white man dislikes blacks, but he wont voice it.

I like the people who are not afraid to say what is on their mind. Tell me you hate me. That is what I want to here. Not someone who hates, me but doesn't voice his hate.

He is not from a core Igbo area, so he cannot be considered a core Igbo man. If I ever became president of Nigeria, Igbos would say that I am Ibibio or a mutt due to my Aro ancestry.

President Jonathan has an Eastern accent, not some Ijaw accent which I never heard of. I used to have a similar accent which is common to people who lived in Port Harcourt.

Now my accent has changed due to living in the States for a while though.

This makes me laugh.

Many PDP communities such as my own in Abia State, did not like OUK. The man did not spread the money around to us, and now he is paying dearly for it. My village still needs the completion of a paved road, but OUK and Co stopped it!

Myself2:
^^^^
And exactly when would enough people have died?

Only God knows. Just know, that enough people haven't died yet. And more people will die until the authorities are able to separate the trouble makers in that society.

Is this a sign that many Muslim youth in the North are getting tired of these Northern elite who hold so much power in the region?

If it is, then I think there is going to be an uprising in the North that will throw away the yoke of servitude.

President Jonathan is an Ijaw.

However, he most likely does have Igbo ancestry though. But, it depends what he consider himself. If he thinks he is an Ijaw, then so be it. No biggie.

I have become indifferent to this crisis. At first this was a shock, but now I am just getting numb to the violence. It is hard to stop a blood feud until enough people die.

Why are Nigerian politicians all fat? It is like they can't look after themselves. They are a true representative of fat looters.

[quote author=Sammy107_d link=topic=476971.msg6368750#msg6368750 date=1278885664]Opinion and stipulation. No state in Nigeria would be what it is without Niger Delta's oil, Kano's groundnuts, or whatever resources Nigeria has. Lagos does not have any special treatment from the FG. It's position today is the result of its historical status as an industrial and financial hub, and brilliant state governors as well. Rivers has all it takes to be a Lagos (with special FG treatment).[/quote]When people spew this rubbish, I have to laugh. Niger Delta oil is the lifeline of Nigeria. When a nation is dependent on ONE resource, then it is bound to fail. Lagos would be no where without oil. If the Niger Delta did not have share its oil revenue, the East in general would be likened to Kuwait. However, we have to share our natural resources to parasites that contribute nothing to the national pot. Lagos has been run by brilliant state governors. ONLY one governor is worth mentioning. The rest was crap and they allowed the city to grow uncontrollably. Frankly, I don't see what is so special about Lagos besides the amount of people in that city. Sooner or later Lagos is going to have to prepare for the rising sea levels.

ezeagu:
Who are these "ohnuhnu" you are always talking about, and how do you pronounce the name?

The city would be in worse shape if we all left. Ngwa left to their criminality would spread throughout Alaigbo.

[quote author=hatch# link=topic=477411.msg6368773#msg6368773 date=1278886053]Just as I expected,only in Aba,Abia state will such lawlessness occur.Very sad that kidnap and Armed Robbery seems to be their steady means of livelihood in that state.[/quote]Do not disrespect my state in such a manner. Only portions of Abia State are rife in criminality. Travelling into Ngwaland is where the criminality is rife. Go to Umuahia or Arochukwu and you will not have to worry about this nonsense.

Aba this and Aba that. I am telling you, this criminality in Ngwaland is rife!

[quote author=Sammy107_d link=topic=476971.msg6367716#msg6367716 date=1278873891]Is their north a demographic mirror of Nigeria's north?

When those state governors in the east (or north) achieve an 80% budget performance, we'll post it here and make you happy.[/quote]Their North is predominately Muslim, including some Hausa, but the majority of the North is other Muslim groups.

In addition, when the west, especially Lagos becomes self-sufficient without using the oil revenue from the East, then you should boast about this. Until then, Lagos is not the most important nerve in this country, it is the entire Niger Delta. Lagos would not be what it is today, without Niger Deltan oil.

Why must Nigeria try to compete with Ghana?

In Ghana, all parts of the country are improving. Even their NORTH! But in Nigeria, are we only worried about Lagos? I could care less about Lagos.

Improve Enugu, Kano, Port Harcourt and Benin City and I shall be happy!
