Mcowubaba: You guys are very funny, so much comic relief.. You gonna chase me and my family outta my crib, unto Wetin chief security Biafra matters ...
This Online situation, makes you guys talk recklessly, I seriously doubt you can even win me in a physical or financial battle....
Anyways, Whatever makes you sleep well at night Enjoy your online Superhero status Nwa ogbenye
Shut up!
You and yours will definitely have a date with history. I have very little patience with saboteurs.
I know what your stupid thread is all about and I'm going to help you achieve it.
stonemasonn: The Catholic and Anglican Church are watching.
Religion divides.
Biafra claiming Jewry may just alarm the Catholic Church who are predominantly Igbo.
You don't need this shit now in this struggle.
Why are you crying more than the bereaved? The Zoo is populated by Christians, Jihadists and many traditionalists... Why haven't you been crying about that? Why worry about the religious composition of Biafra?
Blowback please come and see Afonja e- Warriors in their elements... But as usual we're always on ground to beat them silly and counter their foolish badly thought out propaganda.
TheArchangel: Don't ever reply anybody on this forum except he/she is your other shadow. Some people are lurking around here looking for who to maim. To be forewarned is to be forearmed.
Thank you Ma'am. I'll try as much as possible to heed your advise
Yeah its been a very long time! I've been observing you from a distance. You've been on top of the game. Keep it up. There's a message on your gmail. Send a reply.
Feraz: This is not an Afonja thread. Leave them out of this. And stop lumping SS with Biafra. Accusing others of being unity beggars while practicing the same.
Asari Dokubo is the one that said he's a Biafran. He wasn't forced to say it. I'm sure you're not from the Niger-Delta... It is no longer news that 95% of those claiming Niger-Delta and South-South on most online media are mostly Afonjas and Boko Haramites from the North.
irepnaija4eva: Former Niger Delta militants leader, Alhaji Asari Dokubu has reacted to the sack of Igbos from the North, urging all “Biafran people” in the north to defend themselves in case any attack from the Northern youths.
Recall that the call for Igbos to vacate the northern region was made by some sections of northern youths during the week, and has generated reactions from prominent individuals and groups all over the country.
Although, those that made the call have retracted it, the ex-militant leader noted that every Biafran, who according to him, comprise of the Ijaw, Ogonis, Oron, and Ibibios must not lie down and die when attacked.
Asari noted that Igbo people do not invade people’s lands, nor take their properties and wondered why the call to evict them should be made.
Quit notice on Igbos: Asari Dokubo tells “fellow Biafrans” what to do
“My brothers and Sisters, fellow Biafrans, our struggle is for independence. Let me say this to Biafran People, our struggle is not to take from any other people. We have not travelled to the North, Lagos, Ibadan to take from any other people.
“They are the ones who have been taken from us. In our entire struggle for the actualization of the Independent State of Biafra, we have not invaded other people’s land. We have always reacted strength to strength.
“We have the right to defend our lives; we have the rights to defend our properties and we have the right to defend motherland. In the defense of the motherland, we have made some great sacrifices.
“For me the Biafra struggle is not limited to one of the nationalities in Biafran land. It is the struggle of the Ibibios, the Ogonis, Oron, the Ijaws, and all the Biafran people. It is our collective struggle and collective destiny. Our resources are being wasted.
“It is not even used to develop any part of this so-called Nigerian state. Where is Nigeria developed? Can you compare any part of Nigeria to Johannesburg, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth, or Pitoria? Or Cairo or Alexandra? The only way we can get control our resources is the independent of the Biafra state.”
saintandsinnerz: Your rude and brash character are your greatest achilles heel. Go work on your character. Bye
Very rude and uncouth character to be very candid. I wonder how some men are able to cope with such poisonous and caustic tongues (@ Paperlace) in their homes.
PaperLace: I would have thought secondary schools are on mid term break, going by some juvenile comments here.
OP, you reserve the right to feel the way you feel. I will feel the same way. It's worrying that he comes into your matrimonial room without knocking, you didn't set the boundaries before now. He even stood there apologising, apologising while staring at your unclothedness and your husband didn't react? Nawa!!
It should hurt that your husband dismissed it like that. He isn't expected to kill his brother, but I expected him to show more seriousness. They both don't have any much respect for you.
Call the brother and warn him sternly never to enter your room, with/without knocking. He shouldn't even come close to your room. Try to forget about it, I can imagine how you feel _it's normal, but you'll be fine.
Bla bla bla... Much ado about nothing. Tomorrow you'll still bring out sagged breasts to breastfeed baby in the presence of same BIL.
Accidents happen and the husband reacted well. You sound like those women that usually find flimsy excuses to lodge a wedge between their husband's family members.
lonngmann: Nice story OP I served in Enugu ..so i can relate to few things you said..
And don't mind those people trying to convert this thread to a tribal war zone... Nairaland has been converted to a tribal war zone recently...people blood dey hot..all they need is your name and they know from which angle to attack you. Its bizarre
Very bizarre... But I believe the OP is up to some anti- Igbo mischief. He's already throwing some silent jabs. I know what he stands for.
In a few months we'll chase him and his family out of Biafra for good. He comes from a family of traitors and saboteurs.
gberra: Haaaaahaaaaahaa!!!!.. Y'all have gat no shred of shame ... The Biggest Shame is on you .. The Middle belt are now offering you protection & accommodation should Northerners splatter your poo on your faces outta their lands. WoW You lost your position to SS and now MB about to usurp you. Bro, you're sliding down the pecking order.
In the event Nigeria keeps standing, we probably be having a MB presidency before Igbos turn because MB is acting the Big Brother role to y'all
Gberra how market? The tables seem to be turning. Like we've been telling those who want to listen, this isn't 1967. The game has changed and the politics have changed as well.
Jelal0007: Hahahaha....no worry. This zoo u lot kee taking about,when time comes u'll see how animals like u are locked up in cages inside it. Keep running your mouths. Its al u can do anyway.
The Zoo must fall... The earlier the better for all of us.
Kennydoc: As much as I hate to admit what I wrote earlier, it is the truth. If you read my earlier posts on this forum, you will know I'm a pure Igbo, though not IPOBic. I still maintain that I prefer Nigeria operating fiscal federalism to Biafra.
Mechie onu!
The die is cast. They go soon chase you comot from Lagos.
fulanmafia: Any joint statement as such typically has the blessing of the Elders, anyone taking these warnings with a pinch of salt is doing so at their own risk.
Just wait till this notice is over-simplified, translated to Hausa language, printed on pamphlets and spread in the markets and places of worship, though I pray it never gets to that because such half-literate horde of fundamentalists can be d**dly especially at this time of year. This is exactly why the rational Ibo's were being told to caution their semi-literate, ignorant and irritant ipob brethren.
The chicken might have finally come home to roost; the Ibos have been begging for it.
My Herdsman brother, this is God's hand at work. We never expected it would be this soon. We've been telling our foolish brothers up North to start thinking home but some have refused. Anybody caught up in the melee would be regarded as collateral damage. This is the best news of the year.
obailala: Whoever said you ought to LOVE someone and the person ought to LOVE you back for you to do business/co-exist with the person?... Only small minds/insecure folks think that way bro..
Who doesnt know hausas hate Igbos?
That's not the issue. Your fellow One Nigerianists have asked you out of their region and are already eyeing your properties. Funny how they didn't remember you've been supporting them all along. By the time they hit the streets with their matchetes, they definitely won't remember those who have asslicking them.
AWESOME!!!! Good move. One Nigeria apologists of the Igbo extraction please keep your plea bargain to yourself. This is the hand of God about to push the next stage. Bring it on.
mmsen: You don't know what my views are, you're making silly assumptions instead of listening to reason. Have you seen me chant 'One Nigeria'? I have been in favor of a division of northern and southern Nigeria (at the very least) since I was a small child.
Israel is the aggressor here, they invaded another man's home - they are trespassers not victims. You demean your own struggle by aligning with criminals, their issues are vastly different from that of Biafra.
I do not support the oppression of any Africans. You have never seen me support such.
Palestinians want a state of their own devoid of Israeli presence and interference, Biafrans want their own independent state and desire to be free from the shackles of Nigeria.
mmsen: These are Europeans expropriating Arab land. Let them return to Europe and fight for land there.
Are you for real? I have every reason to believe you're a Muslim from Northern Nigeria masquerading as something else. They're the ones capable of telling such blatant lies.
obailala: Nope, God has opened my eyes to see beyond the part you and many others see. I have completely deleted the part of my mind which keeps reminding me to feel paranoid cos I know that feeling only destroys my ability to properly strategise and achieve things. There was a time I saw things from your view, but I now view things beyond that level cos I have since dug my head up from that sand and advise you to do same. I watched the video, the full video when the motion was raised and when it was shouted down, and also the interview of the angry rep afterwards.
You claim the bill was thrown out because they hate Igbos. But spend a second and think about it (of course without the 'they hate Igbos' mindset); can you give me one single reason why the northern or SW or even the SS reps should have supported the motion?.... Cos from my own understanding of politics and politicians worldwide, they only go for things they feel would benefit either their people, or at least their personal pockets. Recently a Lagos senator Remi Tinubu raised a somewhat similar motion for Lagos to be given a 'special status' (whatever that means) given its national coverage and its population. The bill was similarly shouted down. I wouldn't be surprised if the Lagos senators and representatives are now doing behind the scenes lobbying/bribing and striking deals with legislators from other states/zones (including even Igbo legislators) in preparation for the next time they would present that bill.
You say it has nothing to do with unity or alliances?... Fa fa fa foul! and this is exactly where millions of Igbos keep missing it, thinking we can survive and even prosper as a disunited island. The only reason a similar bill like that can be successful for the north is because (1) The 3 northern zones are wonderfully united and (2) The north, after it agrees with itself, will easily stretch out a hand of fellowship to the SW (and to even some Igbo reps), offering one incentive or the other (i.e. BUILDING BRIDGES), and the SW would simply support the idea because it believes it can gain something from the deal.
A lot of Igbos need to wake up from this 'they hate us and want to punish us' mentality which keeps tying us down from scheming like our mates are doing; everyone else out there is simply hustling for themselves, no one likes/loves anyone and no one owes anyone else anything.
This your worthless epistle is a heap of stinking garbage. You still don't get it, do you?
Ask God to open your eyes and reveal to you why Muhammadu Buhari made his 97/5% comment. While you're at it, also ask God to reveal to you why the 3 Rs were never implemented after the war... While you're waiting for God's divine revelation on that, remind him that you still don't understand why the Federal Government is borrowing billions of dollars to build rail lines that would traverse the length and breadth of this country and Igboland is omitted from it.
My friend, you're too far gone in political correctness to understand the reason why your house is on fire and the fire service isn't batting an eyelid
obailala: 'Igbo enweghi eze!' is a statement we proudly recite, but the fact is that it isn't necessarily a virtue. In fact, this very ideology is the reason why the Igbo nation has been unable to 'play the game' the way its mates (other big tribes) do. It's simple explains why ndigbo have been unable to unite to work towards any common good and this is one big factor which has deprived us of our rightful share in the national cake for decades.
Using the example of the SEDC, of course the SW and the north (and even possibly the SS) shouted it down because obviously, they don't think it would benefit them in anyway (not necessarily because they want to punish Igbos). Scratch my back and I scratch yours cos there are no brothers in the jungle and nothing goes for nothing; this is the most basic ideology which anyone involved in politics globally knows. Before NEDC motion was raised, you can bet the individual who originated it must have extensively discussed it with his colleagues across all the northern zones and even some southern zones. In fact, by virtue of the default UNITY and understanding the different northern zones have, the originator of that motion may not have even needed to discuss it first with his colleagues. But we all know the south hasn't got that sort of synergy at all.
Now a few questions which bug my mind, did the originator of the SEDC discuss the bill with fellow SE reps before raising it in the house?... Did the SE caucus discuss the proposed bill with even the SS reps?... Was any single hand of fellowship extended to SW reps or even sympathetic north central reps before the bill was brought on the floor?... If at all it was discussed with non-SE reps, were offers of 'potential mutual benefit' made to the non-SE reps for them to support the idea (sometimes this could even involve outright cash inducements)?... Remember nothing goes for nothing in the jungle. In fact, on the day the motion was raised on the floor, did we even have up to 30% of the total number of SE reps in attendance?.. I doubt this from the number seen in that video... These are the sort of questions which bug my mind when I think of the failure of the bill, not the usual "they are ganging up against us" attitude. Are we playing the right politics the Nigerian way?
I'm not a person to engage in endless self pity or dwell in endless paranoia believing that everyone else is scheming one thing or the other against me; I am totally not configured to just blame blame blame everyone else for my problems. I just believe everyone else is in a jungle to hustle for themselves and their people and they owe no one else anything. That's exactly what the other big tribes have been doing for themselves and their people and the Igbos need to try and do the same, play the same game our mates are playing, scheme, manipulate, blackmail and most importantly, create mutually beneficial alliances; that is exactly what politics is. Cos as they say, "na cooperation na him make rice full pot," no man can succeed as an island.
I'm not sure you watched that video. You can choose to bury your head in the sand as usual but that's not the reality on ground. Contrary to what you might be telling yourself, the problem is much more deeper. It has nothing to do with the unity of the South-East or building any bridges with other regions. The issue we're dealing with is very base, primitive and primordial. I hope God will open your eyes to see things that are hidden.
obailala: Yeah its sad, but the real issue that bothers the mind is, what were the SE caucus of the NASS, the SE governors forum, ohaneze etc doing when that decision was taken?.... It's never too late though.
What happened with the South-East Development Commission Bill? It was shouted down and overruled by the Speaker and his Northern accomplices.
One Nigeria is a big scam. Our Reps already said it here.
If you understand the reason why there has been a systematic and deliberate underdevelopment of the South-East region, you'll definitely think twice before taking some of your anti-Igbo stance
