I prefer to fly into clean Enugu over dirty Lagos.  

[quote author=Rhino.5dm link=topic=706662.msg8656451#msg8656451 date=1309887091]keep your deceptions to the pages of internet. Am married to half Ikwerre, half yoruba lady, and i know them in and out. From outside you might be decieve by their names and lingua to think they are thesame with igbos until you come close to them to realize the extent of hatred they have towards igbos.  Look i dare you to utter such to their face and see whether you wont be lynched.

Meka ooo![/quote]A minor Igbo clan that does not know its roots.

Rivers state is Igbo. Do not make the mistake to think the Ikwerre are the only Igbo clan in Rivers state.

Do you think Igboland stops at Abia and Imo? 

I could care less what the Ikwerre think. Why is it my concern, when they are such a small group?

[quote author=alj_harem link=topic=706804.msg8656461#msg8656461 date=1309887191]since you criticized him, then i asked what would u have suggested for fashola to do

are u this clueless and yet u are in university as u claim[/quote]You are not serious!

Great!

Calculia:
Alji and Jason, I pity u both. Very Idieeotic people.

Instead of asking Saint Fashola to solve this problem. . . They are asking me to give them a solution.  

Why should I waste my time? 

Constant flooding in Lagos. Fashola needs to do something. The ocean is rising and Lagos may not be there in the future.

phantom:
whats wrong with his son learning carpentry, nothing at all, and i think many youths in lagos should be encouraged to embrace carpentry(and other vocational skills), besides the rate lagos is going,lagosians will need CANOES and lots of 'em to navigate the city!

[quote author=Rhino.5dm link=topic=706662.msg8656310#msg8656310 date=1309885790]^ Don't mind the dolt. I dare him to go to Ikwerre land and utter such to see what will remain of him. Blind delusion.[/quote]You must not know these people. They are already outnumbered by hinterland Igbos in there own land.

And many Ikwerre see themselves as Igbo.

Ikwerre, anu Meka! Meka! Meka o! 

Where are you Fashola? 

Do something about this. . .

Amaechi is a fine governor.

Muslcar:
Sometimes, I think Alj Harem will make a fine President of Nigeria, becos he seems to love all Nigeria. A pity u were not one of the founding fathers den most problem today will not have got this bad. I believe dat u will also stick up for the Igbo' s here, if they were not holding their own becos dat is the kind of person u are in the short time i have been reading on this site.

You must not really know him.

The same man who wants the Yoruba to kick the Igbos out of Lagos. Even if it means violence.

[quote author=alj_harem link=topic=706188.msg8656022#msg8656022 date=1309883371]and so, how does that change the fact of my post

yes i am yoruba awor[/b]i/igbo/kanuri/[b]ijaw/bini

so why pick the yoruba out[/quote]You add 3 more tribes? I dey laugh o!

You are not serious! We all know you are a Yoruba man. I said this from the beginning.

^^^

Stop claiming what you are not. It is becoming quite tiresome.

[quote author=alj_harem link=topic=706188.msg8655902#msg8655902 date=1309882503]it is because of ZnO and Claculia that is why i dislike igbos sometimes[/quote]We already know you do closet Yoruba.

chino11:
Hate Anambra all you want, it doesn't remove the fact that Anambra is the origin of Igbos and the leading light for the southeast geopolitical zone right from the time of the Great Zik of Africa

I thought Imo state was the cradle of Igbo civilization?

The same "Great" Zik of Africa whose kinsmen allow his burial place to fall into disrepair?

Anambra Igbos only ruin the name of Igbos abroad.

Have Muslims been targeted by Christians?

No!

But innocent Christians have been targeted.

Of course we are becoming more hostile.

Boko Haram scare grounds Abuja

By HUGO ODIOGOR, INALEGWU SHAIBU, PETER DURU , CHRIS OCHAYI & VICTOR AHIUMA YOUNG
ABUJA – The nation’s capital city was grounded, yesterday, by military security check following fears of possible Boko Haram attack on the residents. This provoked a traffic gridlock forcing commuters to trek long distance.

Vehicles entering into and leaving the city were thoroughly searched by stern looking military men dispatched by the military High Command following the threat by Boko Haram to plant and detonate improvised explosive devices, IEDs.

Reports said residents and motorists from satellite towns on the Abuja-Keffi Express way pleaded with soldiers to remove the road blocks to ease their hardship and movement but these were rebuffed.

Yesterday’s development in Abuja trailed reports that over 100 suspected Boko Haram memebers had been arrested by security operatives.

Arrest of suspects
Spokesperson of the State Security Service, SSS, Mrs. Marilyn Ogar said that the suspects were arrested in different parts of the North.

Despite security cordon around Abuja, banks and other financial institutions have come under the radar to monitor how terrorists groups get their funds.

The deployment of soldiers to beef up security in strategic places and major roads leading to the nation’s capital city was a response to the failure of the Nigeria Police which is yet to recover from the national embarrassment unleashed on it by the suicide bomb attack carried out by Boko Haram.

Most of the commuters who ostensibly left their homes around 5.30 am in order to beat the usual traffic jam on the road spent over four hours on a journey of about 20 minutes. The traffic jam was so severe that most workers especially civil servants had to go back home, while many cars broke down due to the strain of the hold up.

I never seen an Igbo beggar. This is very strange.

There is no money to be made in begging for the Ndigbo.

The Hausa already control that market with the Yoruba are also entering the market.

4 Play:
I presume you are going to force international airlines at gunpoint to fly to Enugu.

They go where the money is. And Igbo money is good. 

Especially our dollars, euros and pounds.

4 Play:
Converting Enugu Airport to an international airport is a waste of money. There are too many prestige projects in Nigeria and we seem to have a peculiar thing for airports. We will see how many international flights Enugu gets.

Not to many Igbos it is not seen as a waste of money. We Igbos have many people abroad, and it would be easier if we have our own international airport.

Many of us dislike flying into Lagos.

agitator:
Don't let the igbo's hear you, they will skin you alive you want them to miss the ND oil money?

There is no ND without the Igbo. I am an Igbo who is from the Niger Delta.

texazzpete:
Boko Haram was there under Yar'Adua so this is not a GEJ thing. Also, it makes no sense to carry out violent attacks just to show that the president is 'weak'. Whether weak or strong, GEJ is the president until 2015. Nothing will change this.

Shebi people were calling Yar'Adua 'baba go-slow'. Did it change anything in the man?

Let's not complicate things unnecessarily. A radical islamic uprising in the North is inevitable. Anyone who thinks Al Qaeda would ignore the most populous black nation in the world with over 70 million muslims must be joking.

All they need is 10% of that population to cause havoc for all of Nigeria. Was it not Northern Nigeria where Osama Bin Laden is seen as a hero?

Why can't they have their own country?

Is this not what they want?

I hate this country! 

Anyone is better than the known Islamist Buhari.

ak47mann:
never knew you hav  this much hatred for anambra people,yes we are industrious  we work hard for our money not all of us are into drugs ebony people full my town in  nnewi renting houses from us but they have these thing about anambra people, they are not business people like anambra and we understand not everybody can do business and succeed is not easy!! but most crimes in my town are carried out mostly by ebony people they are big headache to us now they marry anambra girls saying they want to have a baby with business brain am not dissing you this is the truth,come to nnewi and see what we have achieved no help from govt my people work hard and they know how to make money don't hate them is their nature 

I would not call it hate. Anambra Igbos need to understand how other Igbos view them. You see how you mention Igbos from Ebonyi state? Why blame them, when your brothers are committing crimes abroad? 

Igbo bu Igbo. We just dislike the arrogance that comes from our Anambra brothers.

Tell your brothers to cease and desist with the mocking of Abia state.

udezue:
Urhobo ppl should just laugh at them and continue their business. LOL These Ijaw ppl sef.

Gbam!

naijaking1:
I wonder why GEJ wouldn't level a section of the city known to habour these terrorists just like OBJ leveled Odi.

Hypocrisy in Nigeria. . .

Thousands of people have been killed in the creeks of the Niger Delta, but an even greater threat from these Islamist is not being handled.

If GEJ doesn't do anything, I am sure the US will do something about it.

[quote author=ekt_bear link=topic=705956.msg8649868#msg8649868 date=1309807969]Just curious, why does Amaechi wear that style of hat? I associate it with Ijaws. Or do Ikwerre also dress like that?[/quote]

Ibime:
All Rivers people dress like that whether Ijaw, Ikwerre, Ndoni, Etche or Ogoni. Who no like better thing?

The only rule is that a good bowler hat must be accompanied by a nice walking stick.

Rivers people are not the only ones who dress like that. Even in Abia, you have some Igbos who dress like that.

Even though we Igbos are united, we still have our disagreements.

The Anambra Igbos, especially from the Onitsha areas are disliked by many Igbos. Anambra Igbos think they are the truth Igbos compared to those from Imo, Abia, Ebonyi and sometimes Enugu.

They are the most arrogant Igbos, and many of it denizens are found in every criminal activities.

There is no comparison between Umuahia and Awka.

Compare Umuahia with Enugu or Owerri.
