Enugu is a nice city but it needs industry. I am not talking about factories. Maybe call centers like India or in health care. Enugu's greatest resource is its intelligent population.

With what

Oyel money?

But Abians are not complaining and protesting. Abians can depend on their families to take care of them. When every family has a trader, no Abian will starve.

And you never heard Abians singing Ochendo praises.

Ghana is the most likely, but that country has problems. I used to say Kenya as well but the Luo and Kikuyu need to see pass their difference. Ethiopia borders haven't changed much in its history except with Eritrea breaking away, but it has not been blessed with leaders who care about their people.

IGBOSON1:
^^^This is the kind of primitive and local thought process i've come to expect from that state!

I don't expect this in-coming guy (from the period he's sworn in till when the courts turf him out on his fat arsse) to be any different from his mentor ochendo-global......after all, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!

The Ohuhu man is still in charge. Clannish sentiment from the Ngwa prevented Otti from emerging as governor since he is of Arochukwu, even though he was born in Aba and his father.

I am Igbo (Aro) and Ibibio and I support this.

But Igbos must apologize to the Ibibios about the Eyo Ita saga, and not recognizing the suffering that Ibibios suffered in defense of Biafra. They were staunch Biafrans, but we rarely hear about their suffering. My materinal side that is Ibibio suffered more than my Igbo side.

These Igbo "leaders" do not speak for the Igbo people. You have to be truly gifted to become an Igbo leader. In our history we have only had 2 leaders and that was Nnamdi Azikiwe and Ojukwu. You could possibly add Dr. Okpara as an Igbo leader as well. After Ojukwu's death we do not have any leaders but pretenders.

Onye ohuhu nwuruanwu. Ndi dirty. We host all y'all vermins. From all your various primordial communities, you flood aba ngwa to achieve expeditious financial ascent. And you think to bite the hand that feeds you. Why don't you make your native communities the bankable metropolises you vaunt of helping make aba? Thunder disfigure your destiny there. Nwa mmefu. Ndi ngwa achiala ndi ohuhu wooo! Olooolulooo! Oooooo! Ooooogho ghooo!

I am Aro. Ngwa man feed us? We employ y'all!

The wealthiest Aba businessmen are not even from Aba. They are from Arochukwu, Umuahia, Orlu, Nnewi and other places in Igboland

0ldirtybastard:
Abeg go die, tranny. Be on transit to your godforsaken village or shut up talking balderdash and be grateful to your hosts so your days may be long in this land that feeds your whole family. Ndi ohuhu ndi obi ojoo.

There are no host in Igboland. Foolish Ngwa man.

Ohuhu and Bende people help make Aba the commercial city of the East.

This shows that Igbo vote for people not parties. PDP in Enugu and Ebonyi. APGA in Anambra and should have been Abia as well. APC in Imo.

Igbos are truly a democratic people.

Clannish Ngwa voted against their own interest when they voted against Otti.

Now they have a Ngwa governor who is controlled by that short Ohuhu man.

Brave men who fought for what they believed in. I give them honor.

Enugu is truly the Igbo capital.

These Ngwa are clannish.

They voted against Otti because he is of Aro extraction even though he was raised in Aba and his father was raised in Aba.

The governor will only be a stooge for the short little Ohuhu man.

When did Ike Nwachukwu... I mean Omar Sanda become an Igbo leader? That is news to me. He fought against his fatherland on behalf of Nigeria.

I remember hearing that when South Africa was going through their xenophobic riots, they were attacking any African who was not from South Africa. Somalis and Zimbabweans were attacked the most.

But when the time came for these South African mobs to attack Nigerians, they were met with Nigerians who were armed and were ready for a fight. There are many Nigerians living in South Africa who act like agberos, but to survive in South Africa, they have to.

Not condoning what Nigerians do in South Africa, but are we surprised that South Africans are doing this to Nigerians?

Was it not South African mobs targeting people from Somalia, Zimbabwe and Mozambique? A country whose xenophobia is known throughout Africa and the world? Ask any African who is not from South Africa how they are viewed by the natives.

Nigerians should not be surprised by this. And South Africans are no angels. Their crime rate is one of the highest in the world.

This is a big shame for Nigerians living in the US.

He didn't just betray the Igbos.

He betrayed any Christian who lost their life in the North. Jonathan is actually spitting on their graves by giving amnesty to these monsters.

How can some of you even justify giving amnesty to terrorist? If you support that move, you need your head examined.

What sane country negotiates with terrorist? Jonathan has shown himself to be a weak man for even contemplating this plan.

I want Jonathan to go to the families who lost loved ones and tell them why he is going to give amnesty to those who brought pain and destruction.

Igbos learn to ignore people like omonnakada.

He is a annoying little boy who always want attention. Simply ignore him and he will eventually go away.

If this is true, Jonathan will lose the support of many of his core backers (Igbos).

So many innocent Christians have perished because of these terrorist and he wants to give them amnesty?

You do not negotiate with terrorist! What about those who lost loved ones because of these monsters? What will Jonathan say to them?

T.A. Orji is the only political leader who speaks on issues such as this.

Remember it was him who was the first Igbo leader to speak about the violence that engulfed the North after the elections.

Onlytruth: I used to tackle you for being militant against Ijaw then, I have to say that I was wrong and you were (are) right. Please accept my apologies.

Do you see ungrateful these people are even when we supported their son?

Thank God Jonathan does not think like some of his people. He understands that it will be the Ndigbo who will defend him, because we have adopted him as one of our own.

I hope some of the Ijaws on Nairaland would think with their heads instead of vexing Igbos.

Why do UMU NRI try to force their beliefs on other Igbos?

The Southern Igbo clans do not recognize the authority of Nri.

Antivirus92: then all of this ur thread should be deleted and the title be changed to "arochukwu culture" because every thing in it is of arochukwu(ibibio) and not igbo. I will say it again, my anscestors founded the igbo and it's cultures/traditions.

When you insult the Arochukwu, you insult one of the largest Igbo clans in Igboland.

Remember the Aro have settlements in all Igbo states. We even have settlements in Anambra and they do not recognize the authority of Nri, but the Eze Aro in Arochukwu.

Some of these Ijaws are ungrateful. Jonathan would never have been elected president of Nigeria without Igbo support.

That is why I say do not bite the hand that feeds you.

No minority can ever get elected in Nigeria without support of either the Yoruba, Igbo or Hausa.

You are on your own.

GEJ is doing a great job for Eastern Nigeria.

Ezeagu you should have posted this thread in the Culture section.

And some foolish people want to say that GEJ is not working.

Of course criticism of GEJ is tribally motivated even though it can be clearly seen that he is working.
