Hypocritical ndi eririeri

Stop giving those bastards attention, they will use it as evidence of their work to those they're working for. But I pray karma will visit them soon.

It will never be well with SE governors. These bastards are inhuman, they don't care about helpless Igbos in the rural areas who are being killed by terrorist fulani herdsmen but the fools only care about how Abuja will percieve them.

May the blood of all these innocent men, women and children that were murdered in cold blood be on the head of Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi and the other Judases!

dadabashua1:
I only need one evidence, show me evidence that I hate the igbo,those guys you mentioned don't speak for me and millions of young Yoruba people today,show me evidence that I hate the igbos plsssss,I will be waiting for your mention, let me also remind you that there was NEVER a records of destruction of igbos properties in ANY Yoruba land during the civil war,which same cannot be said of your fellow igbos (the south south) it means the average Yoruba man loves igbos more than how igbos loves themselves.

What are you even saying? You can deny with mouth even when your actions betray your mindset. When your brothers were making evil statements that will make the Nazis green with envy, all targeted at Igbos when they were vulnerable, was it out of love?

Statements like "when I get into Igbo heartland, I will shoot at everything that moves and even those that don't move"

"You can't continue to feed your enemies so they eat..." At a time millions of children were ravaged by kwashiorkor and facing imminent death due to a blockade. Was that out of love too? Isn't this the same sort of "love" Nazis showed Jews??

What about the recent "drowning in the lagoon speech" by a so-called oba in Lagos?

What Ijaws did in old Rivers State is all part of what I'm saying and what Henry Kissinger and many others observed too.

dadabashua1:
kaiiiiii,who did this to you? So much bitterness and hate in one soul,God help you, WE HATE IGBOS?...wawooooooooo I rest my case,

"Igbos are wandering Jews of West Africa - gifted, aggressive, westernized, and at best, envied and resented, but mostly despised by their neighbors in the Federation---" (a White House Memo on Biafra January 28, 1969 to President Nixon by Secretary of State, Henry Kissinger) (Source : U.S Foreign Relations Documents Volume 5 , 1969)

Was Henry Kissinger an Igbo man? Do you still need more evidences?? Because there are so many of them including the actual hate speeches and actions against Igbos!!

Obamaofusa:


You see how ignorant and backward you sound.There was a time Igbos largely stayed in their region and they were so backward and poorer than they are now.Nigeria practised regionalism at that time and Yorubaland and Yorubas were the richest and most progressive,even Yorubas lent money to Nigeria twice ....that is Hausas and Igbos.... until Aguiyi Ironsi,out of envy and jealousy,stopped regionalism because Yorubas were growing and developing astronomically and he introduced unitary system that had made Nigeria a stagnant nation.

Yoruba nation is here to stay*

Trash!!!
Yet Eastern region was the fastest growing economy prior to the civil war.

Without the oil and gas resources from Igboland in present day SE and SS, yorubaland won't have been any better than Benin republic. We give you free oil money, free human resources that makes Lagos vibrant and you have mouth to talk rubbish.

dadabashua1:
lol,the joke is on you,I'm a Yoruba man,funny enough married to an igbo lady,I just feel some of you the unsuccessful one uses your bad languages to affect the awesome relationship between the successful igbos and other regions,and to even think that every region in the country are also into importing business, and what gives you the believe that is only igbos that imports is shocking, sure you won't like to know the number of Hausa and Yoruba billionaires that are into importing business. ..your mind set making every important issue into tribal perspective show your level of inferiority complex...God help you,and I pray he also free you from your disabilities amen.

You're dense, and there is no doubt about it. Firstly, you guys are always running after Igbo women because it lifts your ego but I wonder who you're leaving your fat and ugly women for, who is going to marry them?

Secondly, you guys have never had any love for Igbos, on the contrary, your age-long hate, envy and bitterness for the Igbo man has always been your rallying call to nationhood. Even foreigners, including heads of state of countries and other scolars have documented the hate other Nigerians always exhibit against Igbos. Ahmadu Bello has his hate speeches against Igbos in video back in the 1960's. Awolowo had his. Same sentiments by several others both high and low, currently same hate has been elevated by Buhari. Only a different dishonest person like you will want to deny it. I can show you lots of documented evidences of hate speeches and actions against Igbos, they are all over the net!

Maybe you also lack ability to read and comprehend or just the yoruba nature playing in you, because I never said that only Igbos import in Nigeria, does that even make sense? Rather I said that Igbos are the majority which any honest and informed person will acknowledge too.

Talking about being successful, I have been able to rise above the deplorable situation in this cursed country. I have virtually everything I once dreamed of as a kid and very soon I will make my way out of this godforsaken and utterly useless country, not necessarily to go seek for greener pastures but to protect my kids and their future from these hellhole and hopefully to return when Biafra is restored.

You pretentious and hypocritical lots are the ones that need God's mercy.

Mathoj:


I decided to do because the fool has been cyber bullying people, getting away with it and thinking everyone here is of the same low level like him.
I only found this forum as a resource to know development in our dear Anambra state and expected decent people as contributors but met this mental retard disturbing everyone.

Lol, I'm really having bouts of laughter, you really pummelled that dude. He has been a nuisance here with his numerous monikers but you've proven it requires a "crazy" man to cure a madman

PortHardcore:
I keep hearing that Biafra is the only hope of Africa.

So can anyone of you Biafrans tell me what Biafra is going to do that AFCFTA/Ghana/Rwanda/Tanzania/Kenya/Botswana/South Africa is not doing or is going to do?

Thanks.

You guys are truly underestimating the Igbos. "In Biafra, Africa Died" is the title of a book that captured how Africa missed an opportunity to have a nation that would have become advanced in science and technology.

The defeat of Biafra by the combined imperialist powers extinguished a mid level technologically emerging country in the late 1960's when most of Africa and Asia were still poverty stricken and consumerist places. Read about Biafra's technological and scientific advancement within a very short period 1967-70 and you will weep for the missed opportunities.

I can bet you, it may be late but if Biafra is actualized now, give it 10 years and you will have a replica of Asian Tiger nations in Africa. Non of the countries you mentioned is as unique as Biafra or the Igbos. We may be Black in pigmentation like other Africans but our prowess is very much similar like the Asians. You can even see the glimpses of it with what is happening in the East despite the chokehold grip Nigeria has on us. Motor vehicle manufacturing and motor parts manufacturing in Nnewi! Shoes, bags, cloths and other consumer goods being mass produced in Aba! Where else do you think you can find similarities in other parts of Africa?

With due respect to South Africa, Rwanda and the other countries you mentioned, they're doing relatively well but they do not possess the capacity of the Igbos in industry and enterprenuership!

With Afcta in place, it even gets better for us as Igbos/Biafra because it means we will easily displace the Asians by flooding SSA with cheap and good products without bottlenecks.

I CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE BIAFRA!!!

dadabashua1:
I'm sorry dont be offended,i thought you are educated...my bad,no vex.(by their fruits you shall truly know them,empty barrels)

I'm more educated than the most educated person in your community. See this almajiri is talking about education, una dey go school?

I get una time today

dadabashua1:
[s]you are so not intelligent, who are the people that patronize your business, they made you, you DON'T made them,if your customers fail to patronize you, trust me hunger will kill you,the reason Why you import is because they patronize you,hence they made you,they are the reason for your success, I'm not Hausa,not related to any Hausa or fulani man,but I don't like un-intelligent people.[/s]

You're obviously fulani from Mali because you reason like them, mentally re.tar.ded in nature!

You don't know anything about business or trading and that's why your thought process is so basic. You think most people think about tribe before buying or they naturally go to where they would get most value for their money?! FYI, people don't patronize Igbos because they love them, no! Rather they buy from Igbos because Igbos give them the best value for their money!

Whether you like it or not, you will still patronize the Igbos either through the retailer, wholesaler, distributor or importer!

And hey you, you didn't make anybody talk more of Igbos instead it's even the other way round. When we overlook the inconveniences and risks, and go to the most remote villages to establish the only functional pharmacy or supermarket/provision and make the products accessible and cheap for you, then who is actually helping the other?

We now have frontiers all over SSA so your community, state or region is just a minuscle to our sphere of influence in the business world.

ORIENTATION101:
lagos has the biggest market for 90% of those imported items.
The biggest igbo markets in lagos re

Computer village ikeja- phone acessories and gadgets
Alaba int market- majorly on electronic devices and home appliances
Ladipo market mushin - spare parts for vehicles.
And other markets for 2by2 shops for used clothes boutiques.
The self acclaimed biggest market in west africa Ariara market in igboland what do they sell there
You igbos re majorly petty traders not even twisting of facts can change that

You yorubas talk most times without reasoning, and it's quite sad. You have mentioned most of the consumer goods markets in Lagos and accepted it's dominated by Igbos. Now, your brain couldn't process that if Igbos could be in control of all these markets in Lagos, why won't they also be dominant in other trading/business ventures since they've proving times without number to be excellent traders and bussinesmen without rival in Nigeria?

FYI, used cars coming into Nigeria are mostly through used car sellers in Nigeria and Nigerians living in America and Europe. Between Igbos and Yorubas who are more in number outside?

Building materials, electronics, clothings, drugs, consumer goods etc are some of Nigeria's biggest imports, who are the dominant players there? From its importation to distribution and wholesale/retail who controls them?

Continue living in a fool's paradise, maybe ignorance is bliss to you guys.

Timmi:


[s]You need to free yourself from importing fake drugs into Nigeria by the Igbos/Igbos first. The customs are looking for fake products and smuggled goods. Your people - Igbos/Igbos specialize in either importing fake drugs and/or banned illegal substances that killed and/or damaged people lives; and smuggling contrabands. Illegality is in your blood and hence the law needs to be applied to check mate your people before they destroyed Nigerians.
Nigerians will be better off if the Igbos/Ibos/Igbos packed their stuff to their southeastern states and leave the rest of us alone. Then, they can kill themselves with their illegality and fake drugs.[/s]

Igbos are the livewire of Nigeria, without us Northern Nigeria will be like Niger rep and yorubaland will be Benin republic, that's why you all will rather commit suicide than allow us go. You guys know you can't do without us

Obamaofusa:


You are the most ignorant person I have encountered.Igbos are petty traders and mostly do their importing individually and also loud about it.
Go and do your research.Last year some of the import specialisation of the Yorubas like sea foods,iron and steel,Petroleum products(Yoruba own more than 80% of the petroleum stations in Lagos,reason they are the largest marketers and importers of petroleum products),used vehicles,cereals etc came tops as the biggest imports in Nigeria.
You have always deceived yourselves with falsehood which you always believe.That is your wahala sha.Yorubas import more than the Igbos because they have the highest number of indigenous industries in Nigeria.Igbos are petty traders mostly.

Lol, how old are you? Because e reach to ask!
Look at fables this boy is mouthing here, terrible lies anybody in Nigeria already knows!

When did yorubas start importing biko? Because last time I checked, they're still fringe players in a sector that is overwhelmingly dominated by Igbos!!

Even yorubas who are informed will be embarrassed at the trash you're writing here.

Now you've graduated your own statistics upwards from yorubas controlling 65% of petroleum products to 80%.

Well, if basking in ignorance will make you sleep well at night, please go ahead. I only pity those that will believe your fantasies

Obamaofusa:


Igbos dont import up to the Yorubas but they are petty business people in which case you see them individually doing their thing.They import in ones,twos etc whereas one Yoruba e.g Doyin group....I know this and you can verify at Coker village...can import 30,40,50 containers.Most of the Igbos around that axis buy from them..

You're the most ignorant and deluded person and you seem to take pride in your ignorance.
SMH.

Obamaofusa:


Go and make your research.Over 65% of the petroleum marketers in Nigeria are Yorubas and the people who control used vehicles market in Nigeria are the Yorubas.Most of them based in Lagos here.Lagos is the largest market of used vehicles.There had never been anytime Igbos import more than the Yorubas but Igbos are just talkative and self deceivers.They like to deceive themselves..

Go to Berger and make enquiries about the car sellers. Continue pulling fake statistics from your smelly ass and throwing it about as facts. Yorubas control 65% of petroleum importers? Why not take a trip to those storage facilities and check which people owns what?

Nonsense!!

Obamaofusa:
lol

Why do you think majority of imports are done by Igbos.Most of what the statistics show are done by Yorubas especially petroleum and used vehicles etc.Everybody knows what the Igbos specialise in..

Continue decieving yourself, who are the petroleum products importers if not the likes of Capital Oil and the rest, do Yorubas have more of such companies than Igbos?

So yorubas also import more used vehicles than Igbos? You're decieving yourself!

Tinubuadvocate:
You see why people dont take you guys serious anymore chest beating. We have about 250 ethnic and you rate your own above other. Igbo import sugarcane too.

You think it's by having 250 docile ethnic groups? My friend, go to Tin Can, Apapa or Onne and ask any fulani custom officer you see there and see what he will tell you.

Sugar cane is obviously imported by beverage industries.

ORIENTATION101:
igbos dey sell sugar cane, motorcycles ? You think it by importing fake spare sparts, fake electronic devices and okrika clothes is what drive nigerian economy

That fallacy of igbos majority of importer has been put to bed by this chart

MUMU, who are the major importers of motorcycles in Nigeria if not Igbos? It is you abo.kis that do the okada riding while we do the importation. Who are those importing the drugs? Is it not Igbos? Who own most of the lubricant manufacturing companies with products in the market? Is it not Igbos or do you need me to list them? Go to Tin Can, Apapa or Onne and ask any custom officer working there who are their major customers. BTW, Sugar is imported by manufacturers.

Nezzjnr:

Dude shut up

GTFOH!!

You think I have any sympathy for this useless contraption?!!

PediakAuthor:


Why is it that you guys are always too quick to politicize/tribalize every reasonable thread on this platform
I don leave the thread 4 una...

Buhari first tribalize/politicized everything in Nigeria, we are only helping him to destroy whatever is left!

You can leave the thread if you want, I have left it already

PediakAuthor:
An deductive statistics...

That's why the abo.kis want to kill themselves ontop the ports. Majority of these imports is by Igbos but the Fulani cabals are all over the seaports extorting and frustrating importers.

Sham nation!

SlyDev:


If both side are left without interference, I swear to God, no body go dey bear igbo again

When the war started, the Nigeria military were just using sticks and dummy gun so the biafrans thought they had upper hand hence their Invasion, its was Britain that was holding Nigeria back then, when the Gowon complained the soldiers are dying to biafra real guns, this then justify the use of real force and that singlehandedly destroy biafra morale.
You can't win Nigeria, Nigeria was even holding back, forget story

You know nothing about the war. British government were supplying Nigeria shiploads of arms, armoured cars, artillery and shells!

Russia was supplying Nigeria with Illushyin bomber planes!

Egypt was supplying Nigeria with pilots to fly the Russian planes!

Which one here is lie? Even Chadian mercenaries were fighting for Nigeria in large numbers!

Biafra was blockaded on all sides and couldn't get in arms which made them to be fighting with almost their bare hands and locally produced equipment.

These are irrefutable facts!!

I repeat, without outside help, Biafra would have totally routed Nigeria.

Biafra lost the against superpowers Britain and Russia as well as AU and the Arab lEague that didn't want Nigeria to break. It was never because of Nigeria's military might. Had it been both sides were left alone without outside interference, Biafra would have routed Nigeria.

I like the way UN is inundated with petitions about ongoing state sponsored terrorism in Nigeria. At least they won't feign ignorance of it because it seems like world leaders will also have their conscience disturbed forever just like it happened when they failed to save lives of Tutsis in Rwanda until it was too late to act.

It's deja Vu once again in Africa, this time with a worse form of genocide about to take place in Nigeria.

Lalasticala, please this is front page material complete with source.

It's now obvious that the Boko Haram bandits that were given questionable amnesty and later conscripted into the army have been sent to Igboland to commit attrocities.

An Igbo man is the head of ICJ, is he going to keep quiet while genocide is being committed against his people?

Are Igbo groups not compiling all these crimes against humanity and presenting it where it matters??

Why would this rogue government be using state resources to be attacking defenceless citizens in the most irresponsible and cowardly manner??

This is not time to keep calm anymore because it is now clear like daylight that this is state sponsored terrorism.

A state sponsored genocide is going on in the East yet there appears to be a conspiracy of silence. We are being inundated with news of innocent people being arrested or killed by law enforcement agencies in the most extrajudicial manner.

These are obviously war crimes and state sponsored terrorism!!

When is enough going to be enough

Rubbish of the worst form!!!
This shows that something terrible is going on while those in authority only pretend.

Let me ask, how many soldiers do we have in Nigeria, are they even enough but here they are escorting kids to school in the North. Will they do this every day to and fro? Since they know it's not possible, then why are they fooling themselves??

The same soldiers and police that will be forming Rambo in the South will go to the North and become boyscouts.

The earlier Southerners realize that Nigeria is gone and we no longer have a country but a full blown terrorist rogue entity, the better for us. The North won't get better ever again instead it will continue to worsen and the spillover reaching the South.

Spits on the shithole rogue country!!

Very long epistle and poorly copied, but I read the whole piece and it's indeed very revealing!!!!!

Hmnn, modern day afonjas! And to think an old man who is near his grave and should know better is the one selling his people for just 10 pieces of silver makes it the more tragic.

A very big shame indeed!!

SlyDev:
It's only igbo that do things hypocritically, now an example if yoruba should start circulating news for Yoruba should start buying things from ijebu and should never enter igbo shop again. It's the igbo that will be shouting afonja and ronu up and down.

Why should portharcout side with South East when they can make money from port autonomy like Lagos, you think others are dull abi, e go soon clear for your eyes.

The naive fool that opened the thread is obviously not Igbo yet you couldn't decipher that? The same Rivers State Wike claims is not an Igbo state is the one they're calling Igbos to patronize. Does it make sense to you? If the port is not in Onitsha or anywhere in Igboland then it offers no advantage to us.
