^^HA! Taking any sort of talk about Liberia from an Americo-Liberian is like talking to sympathizers of the Nazis during WW2! THEIR ancestors bleeped Liberia up, NOT only Doe! Doe was an arsehole yes, but the foundation of tribalism, imperialism and war began with the Americo Liberians. They used to scorn and abuse the natives who became fed up and resulted in the wars. Tolbert and his regime in my opinion should not have been executed maybe excommunicated but nonetheless their over throw was necessary!

I understand what you were saying about Ghana, I definitely want to visit there! lol so I can despoil Asamoah Gyan LOL! (so sexy!) A friend of mine is from Ivory Coast and he told me I should visit there and Africa in general as it is "Just like Yard/Jamaica" - I guess so lol. But I still want to visit. What about Nigeria? What are your advice as far as "safe" places to visit there? I am serious.

Didn't under the Tolbert regime that Liberia see the most advances? Especially becoming a modernized nation. Tolbert was buddy-buddy with the U.S. during the Cold War.

If you wish to travel to Nigeria, I would say travel with a Nigerian. If you like a modernized setting, then go to Lagos for fun, Abuja to see nice architecture and reach Nigerians and Calabar to relax and enjoy the beaches. If you feel adventurous, then go up North to Hausaland. The Hausa have a rich cultural history and go to their old cities.

And if you want to see Igboland, then go to Enugu since that city is very safe. It can be considered the capital of Igboland.

And you shouldn't?

I see you mention my Igbo brothers, but not your Yoruba brothers of the same vein.

No wonder Nigeria will never progress. People like you. . .

^^that is what I was trying to explain to the others that Nigeria can go to war but Liberia is far worse. Anyway I want to visit Liberia because as I stated my ex and I are very close and he wanted me to see where he is from and life there. Despite the war the people are still like everyone else and I do not fear them. I wanted to do some traveling to Africa (even places ppl raise an eye brow to) as I am an aspiring journalist to see things outside of my "sheltered" world. I am not ashamed of flaws and I have faith in Liberia, I just want to see first hand what a toll the war and injustice has taken on the people so I can be about talk AND action. I don't want to be one of those who talk out of my arse without seeing the real deal.

Brave girl. . . Interesting enough, when I talk to my Liberian friends, most of them Americo-Liberians are kind of disgusted in how their nation has changed into. They would say when Americo-Liberians were in charge, Liberia was a better place and they blame Doe. I even know some of the grand children of William Tolbert and his clan. They are all around the DC area and I party with some of them.

The closest place I ever been to that would be considered a war zone is that I spent some time in Cote D'ivoire a year after the Civil War ended in 2008. You could still see the devastation.

If you never been to Africa, my advice to you would be to go to Ghana or a "safe" country before you go to that former war zone. Being in Africa is another world if you have lived a sheltered American life. I tell my cousins who were raised in the states the same thing.

^^^^^^^^^^

Why would anyone want to visit a war ravaged country?

Now I know not all Africans are the same. You do not hear this occurring in Somalia or DR Congo.

Even my people did not have this in our history. We were just a head hunting culture.

Chineke! We have enemies in our midst!

I used to have so much optimism in my people.

But I am becoming more disillusioned and disappointed.

Sometimes I wish we Easterners had the same type of unity that the Northerners have. They may be poor, they may be illiterate, but[b] I envy their unity. [/b]

We were amused at his foolishness and allowed him to stay. Now he has won our brothers, and our clan can no longer act like one. He has put a knife on the things that held us together and we have fallen apart."

-Chinua Achebe, Things Fall Apart

Are we Igbos at war with ourselves?

It would seem that we are running around with no direction.

Damn I luv SA girls. . .

If I ever traveled to SA, I would have a lot of fun.

But I would bring a bunch of condoms.

I regret the age I lost it. . .

Last easter period (April).
Shell is currently exploring the community for crude oil.

Too close for comfort!  

chyz:
thats why i said what i said in the bolded.

This guy is not reading properly.

igbobuigbo:
Below is what the first line says. How does that mean they are Igbos?

I think you are confusing yourself.

I said I never knew that Igala were indigene to Abia. And they are not.

The size of non-igbos tho is inflated however these are the groups that are indigenous.

I knew the Ibibio and Ekoi. That is why I was surprised when I heard Igala.

My very own community had plenty of Ibibios who have been there for centuries.

We Igbos do not talk with one voice either anymore?

What happened?

igbobuigbo:
So where did you read from the article that there are indigenes of Abia who are not Igbos?

The first line Mr. Igbo [b]BU [/b]Igbo. . . 

igbobuigbo:
There are all sorts of people in Abia especially Aba: whites, Indians, lebanese, hausa, yoruba, igala, ibibio, ogoni, etc. They are simply residents just as Igbos reside in other places.

No I am talking about indigene. . . Not if they reside in that state.

chyz:
There aren't. as you read on in the article you can see that the first line was a typo. they are simply asking for positions in the administration because they believe that since they have been residents there for a while and contributed to its economy that they should be allowed a positions.

I read on. . . Made me sick how they want to reelect T.A. Orji.

I did not know that there were any Igala indigene in Abia State. I learn something new each day. I know there are Ibibio indigene though.

jason12345:
why? is it because you deem it a yoruba party? why?

I rather see APGA in the East.

Do you deem it as a Yoruba Party, because I never said that?

jason12345:
how

Haven't you read about the assassination attempts on different southwest politicians?

Political season is never safe in the southwest. Everyone knows that.
