I could care less who I marry. As long as she looks good.

My children will still be Igbo. And they will still speak Igbo and Ibibio.

Igbo men are egotistical.

I will admit that. Igbo man with money. Na wa o! Even worse.

But one thing can be said about Igbo men is that we are entirely devoted to our families and we treat our women like queens.

And we are hard working.

This is what happens when a person gets subsidies from the gov't. And unfair business practices.

Aigbofa:
This little booty scratcher is still alive?

You still haven't pulled the trigger yet?

Aigbofa:
Who cares about what a nonentity like you thinks. Like really!!

Just shut up you buffoon.

Onlytruth:
And the endorsements fell from the sky right?
Ol' boy you people think you are clever but you are really dumb.
Let me tell you, Igbo will produce the president or you will not have Nigeria alone to continue cheating us in it.
Get ready for Oduduwa republic, by fire by force!

Gbam!

KnowAll needs to stop worrying about the Igbo and worry about his own people. Why do Yorubas always talk about the Igbo? I mean you never hear an Igbo man worrying about what the Yorubas are doing?

They just need to STFU! Even the Hausa do not worry about other groups.

Yorubas just shut up and mind your own business. Yeye people.

Becomrich0:
is reason may be because there are not so many ijaw in delta state, most of them live in bayelsa state. They may even relocate them to bayelsa state, and build a city for them. I can show you it is possible to relocate the ijaw in delta state to bayelsa state. They are not much.

Answer this question for me. How did Ijaws get into Ondo State? How did they jump over the Itsekiri and become indigenous to Ondo State?

chyz:
Please can your chop it up so that it is readable?

It is a good read.

Clark is saying he is a Niger Deltan leader but his only interest is the Ijaws.

At 80 he did not have his party at Asaba, but he had birthday party in Abuja and Bayelsa State even though he is from Delta State.

chyz:
Why is everyone so worried about the Igbo. Are you that scared of our progress. Dont worry about igbo being president,worrying about your own tribesman becoming president. Its not by force that you vote for an igbo.If you have a problem with us then dont vote for us,its as simple as that.Whatever comes out of the situation its on you. Nigeria is a "democracy" you can vote for whoever you want to.

I am getting tired of this Igbo this and Igbo that. 50 years ago, 45 years ago, many of these Yorubas would not be able to dictate to us what Igbos should be doing.

We were the people doing the running of this nation. The nerve that the children and grandchildren of the people who defeated us think they can tell us what to do.

The only thing they are doing is making the Ndi Igbo angry. And when we are on the war path that will be the day Nigeria ends.

My Igbos brothers and sisters, let us not fight concerning this issue. We should wait and see. Let us not speak until we know the full stories.

Ohanaeze needs to hurry up though!

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=229963.msg6742365#msg6742365 date=1284327166]Quit changing your story, lil boy. And stop flattering yourself, it's not cute.

A while ago, you said that na only NL you display your tribalism, that you dont do it offline. And something about having Yoruba friends. . . . that you guys just joke.

Anywaz, nice way to say Yoruba did ths and that when you know we cant prove you wrong. People just make stories up as they go along.[/quote]Who do you think you are talking to like that? I will not tolerate such nonsense from you.

You see I clearly made the distinction, between Yorubas raised in the states and Yorubas raised in Naija. A big difference. Most of Yoruba friends were raised in the U.S. so they are not tainted with the Igbo hatred that pulses through many Yorubas raised in Naija veins.

I keep on telling you that people in the East do not give a dammn about the Yoruba. Since you are rarely travel outside of your region, it is pretty rare to see a Yoruba in the East in large numbers.

Are you not a person who said you could NEVER marry an Igbo man? I clearly said I could marry a Yoruba woman.

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=229963.msg6742096#msg6742096 date=1284324695]Are you for real? Are you trying to say Ezeuche is reacting to something? Dude wakes up to eat and breath an imaginative enemy. If he sees none, he must create one.  

You know, I can also come out and claim that Yoruba ppl are only reactive of tribalism. Hypothetically, there's been more anti-tribalism Yorubas on politics than any other tribe. .  . .but after a while of being thrashed they change and become tribalistic themselves.[/quote]Must you always bring up my name?   You live and breathe my name. Don't use that famous Yoruba juju on me! I hear Ekiti juju is strong o!

I didn't become a tribalist to Yorubas until I encountered many of you all in the U.S. I am not talking about the Yorubas who were raised in the West, I am talking about Yorubas who were raised in Naija. Remember the only groups that I encountered when I was younger were Ibibios, Igbos, Ogoni and Ijaws. Yorubas changed my view. I actually had a very favorable view of your people.

And for your second statement, that is very FUNNY.

I am so confused o!

I abstain from the voting.

Ohanaeze please take a stand. We need you guidance!

cap28:
Everything Obuekwe has said is 100% true, you can not deny the fact that the western capitalist system is a satanic system which leaves nothing but misery, poverty, death and destruction in its wake.  It has almost no redeeming qualities and that is why the world we live in today is full of misery and suffering, why is it that a few people (mainly white westerners constitute some of the richest people in the world while the poorest and most oppressed people are overwhelmingly black or brown people?  Is that a coincidence? Or is it because the white race are not prepared to live in a world where all races are equal and are allowed to live peacefully alongside each other.

Lets look at america as an example - the white capitalist system was built on the backs of black african slaves who were considered as chattel - there was no provision for any person of african descent in their so called constitution or bill of rights - if not for the fact that you had people like marcus garvey, malcolm x, martin luther king who challenged and forced the hand of the white supremacist system blacks would have remained in bondage to date in america (as a matter of fact blacks STILL remain in economic and psychological bondage all over the world).

Now lets look at africa - where in africa do you see any independent govt which is not being teleguided and directed by the IMF and world bank that has succeeded? And before you shout South Africa - let me correct one general misconception - WHITES ARE STILL CONTROLLING THE ECONOMY OF SOUTH AFRICA,  this is the chokehold that these demons have got africa in, if you try to go it alone you face world wide economic isolation and blockades from europe and america - is this not what happened to zimbabwe?

For those of you who keep waffling on about how it is all our own fault - I would like to ask you this question - why is it that when biafra decided to secede in order to become masters of their economic and political destiny - britain decided to arm nigeria to prevent the seccession?

Also why is it that when Haiti emancipated itself from enslavement and became the first black republic in 1807 , europe and america imposed a 50 YEAR ECONOMIC TRADE EMBARGO against it which led to Haiti becoming an economic basket case?

Finally why was Nkrumah deposed by the CIA when he began to advocate calls for a pan african state which would advance the economic and political goals of african people to the exclusion of the west?

Gbam!

Africa is not free. We may have political freedom if that. . . But the West still runs Africa through multinational corporations.

That is why I find it funny Uncle Toms like Bidemi12 still has his heads in the cloud. His way of thinking is one of the main reason why Africans are going through neo-colonialism. Black Americans have a term for blacks who think like Bidemi12, they call them good ol folks negros aka House negros.

Yoruba men do not know how to treat their women.

Do not make good husbands. How many Yoruba women have I see being mistreated by their Yoruba husbands. Yoruba husbands do not give a dammn about the sanctity of marriage.

They cheat on their women and are not loyal.

I am a firm believer if you get married, you should be entirely faithful to your spouse.

I despise Yoruba men with Igbo women.

Yoruba families are so dammn tribalistic when it comes to those type of marriages. I'll rather see an Igbo woman with an Oyimbo man than with some Yoruba man.

I also speak from experience with the Yoruba women I have dated. Yoruba mothers can be so cruel. I remember Yoruba woman told her daughter she would disown her if she ever did anything with me.

I love cultural threads! So much to learn. I am busy reading through all these threads.

It is so much we do not know about African languages.

That is why we are in need of an accurate census! Our numbers have continued to be deflated by the powers that be. I always said that Alaigbo is overpopulated. That is why we are continue to spread all across Africa.

Odunnu:
Sorry my dear,I mean the part abt u falling sick when he is mentioned.
Is it dat d man is 2big 4 u guys thre?
Have u ever been to Enugu?compared to Abia its the 3rd heaven,the abode of the Almighty.

It would see like the good citizens of Abia are been strangled by the Orjis. And now that they are back with PDP, I only see things getting worse for my state.

Yes, I have been to Enugu. Nice state. . . Nice town. Abia does have its distinct charm. I enjoy Umuahia. But I grew up in Port Harcourt. Now that is the city that I really enjoy!

Let us not discuss my governor, whenever I hear his name, it makes me sick. Abia is failed in many ways and in certain areas.

Odunnu:
Afta my colleague recounted the eyewitness event of hw that Tonimas bigboy was kidnapped amidst several gunshots,my boss as in the CEO of our organisation has ordered us (his employee) never to go thru Abia on our fortnightly visit frm Enugu to Phc.
I'm so afraid for the inhabitants of that state esp in the City of Aba!
Its gone beyond one day,one kidnap,its nw one hour,one kidnap

Not all of the state is in flames. Only the Aba areas. I am from Arochukwu but I stay in Umuahia at times and I feel very safe in that town. Aba is just the city that is dragging the state down.

I could care less. Nigeria is not even suppose to exist in the next 16 years. First worry about 2011 Mr. Poster before saying that the IGBO (Not Ibo) may never see the presidency.

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=509512.msg6738716#msg6738716 date=1284257277]That EzeUchy, always trying to make an enemy of anyone.
I guess that makes some ppl feel important, makes no darn sense, but like whatever.[/quote]Life would just be plain boring. I really do not hate as much as I say I do. I say most of the stuff for laughs even though I am an unabashed Igbo supremacist.

But I don't hate any other groups. I just look out for Igbo interest first and foremost. I'll choose a fellow African over an oyibo though

[quote author=Aloy+Emeka link=topic=512103.msg6737238#msg6737238 date=1284232134]You can't do ish. I am sure they can swindle you by posing as nakked FLGators.[/quote]Actually I don't pay to play. . .

Someone steals $50k from me, that would be the end of that guys life. He can be found. Sooner or later these yahoo boys will steal from the wrong person and that will be his end.

People are so stupid! They actually fall for this stuff. AMERICAN GREED!

amazonia:
Ezeuche,

Man, your are funny. I can hardly stop laughing. What did you say?
Igbo should have, could have, mean anything? Well, i know, if you
could have, should have, make it mean what you like. Unfortunately these
things are independent of our prejudices and desires.

You are the funny one.

We Igbos are not descended from anyone but ourselves. How can you tell a much older civilization that we are descended from them. It is like the Arabs saying that the Egyptians descended from them.

Great Benin was great, but we Igbos have always existed even before the very foundations of Benin. Can you explain IGBO-UKWU.

Even the Nri Kingdom in Igboland is older than the foundation of Benin Kingdom by 400 years! So enough with your nonsense.

Vealkyrie:
^^^Obasanjo and Abacha are also westerners. Roflmao!!!!

Well the Americans and the British had no problem with either OBJ or Abacha. Actually they really loved Nigeria when tyrants were in control.

Neither did they have a problem with Mobutu.

However, they did have a problem with Patrice Lumumba and Amilcar Cabral. And we seen what happened to these revolutionary Africans.
