 Politics / Re: Gen Buhari Get Ready To Face UK Drone Strikes If Anything Happen To Nnamdi Kanu by GentleToks(m): 10:02am On Oct 27, 2015 |
Ngwaukwu1: You are comparing Nnamdi Kanu to Madiba. What a joke!!! I know criminal record does not stop you from gaining employment outrightly but your choice would be extremely limited. Go and ask unlucky ones who find themselves in this criminal record web, it's an horrible experience for them. Professional jobs should be the last thing on your mind if your names goes on National criminal data base. Menial jobs might be your only option or better still, personal business if Kanu could raise the Capital... |

carnegiefan: Like i said in my quoted submission, i am a British citizen my self and i live here in Kent. It ll be suicidal for any British citizen to incite someone or group of people against a sovereign Nation like Nigeria under the pretence of agitation for independence and expect British government to come to his/her rescue. It may interest you to know that Nnamdi Kanu is already in trouble in UK if he is found guilty in a law court in Nigeria. And interestingly, all evidence against Nnamdi Kanu as a Terrorist is on Tape; undeniable. I knew it right from day one that Nnamdi Kanu would go down for all those war-calling utterances on Radio. I knew those broadcasts were being recorded by State security apparatus. All these tapes would be presented to British government and that alone would seal his fate. If Nnamdi Kanu is eventually convicted of this crime, his name goes on national crime data called Criminal record. He is finished. He is as good as Britishless as far as gaining employment in UK. |

I am a British citizen too and i can put it to you that the greatest mistake of IPOD/BIAFRA is getting UK involved in Nnamdi Kanu's crime against a Nation. What a big mistake!!!!! British government would nail him faster than he ever thought. Who remember the Rwanda genocide? Those guys preaching and inciting people on a Radio in Rwanda were later caught in UK around 2006, on trial in 2006 and got sent to years imprisonment. The UK authority never allowed IRA(fought the British army for Irish independence; 60% members were sent to maximum prisons in UK for doing something similar to Kanu's action). The British government does not tolerate Terrorism and violence in any form being on a Radio, Leaflets on the streets(Muslims tried it in UK and all went to prison for it). If you take a proper look at that letter, the MP wants to know his crime against Nigeria state and when the evidence of his war-threatening is released to this British MP, Nnamdi Kanu might be placed Scotland Yard watch. Nnamdi Kanu would be as bad as Henry Okah of South Africa. You and i know that Nnamdi Kanu's crime is as bad as act of terrorism(Inciting people against a state). In UK, inciting someone or group of people against individual or group of people carries 6years minimum imprisonment. He might lose his British passport if Nnamdi Kanu is eventually found guilty and it's pretty obvious to the blind that Nnamdi Kanu would be found guilty considering the massive evidence against him. Below are Nnamdi Kanu crimes against a sovereign nation called Nigeria. 1-The Radio piracy 2-Terrorism(inciting people against a Nation is called Terrorism). The evidence(Those war-calling words on Radio) against him is too overwhelming for Nigerians to ignore and too much for UK to deal with. There are people(Artos of Catalan, Spain and Alex Salmon of Scotland) fighting for the independence of their countries around the world as at today but none did what Nnamdi Kanu was doing on a live radio. He is an uneducated fool. 2 Likes |

liberty300: I am an Akure indigene(both sides). I lived in Akure for almost 26 years before moving to next level. Akure is a place where Igbos could refer to as their home anytime any day considering their peaceful co-existence with Akure indigenes and Yorubas in that city. Igbos are having a blast in that city; no tribal issues, no disturbance from any quarter. It's all about making Benjamis for Igbos in that city and Igbos community is making that Benjamins cos there is peace. However, it ll be suicidal for Igbos in Akure not to be boundary conscious like Hausas/Fulanis in Akure. Akure indigenes are the last people in South West that Igbos want to play around with. Akure indigenes would destroy all Igbos business in that city in less than 24hrs. Igbos businesses are mainly concentrated at Ilesha garage(spare parts), Iro junction all the way to Isinkan(Electronics), Oba-Adesida (Boutiques) and Arakale(Building materials). Unfortunately, Akure is not as big as Lagos hence, Akure indigenes know where and where all Igbos in Akure live with their families. It will be a straight forward tribal cleansing if the whole thing gets out of hand. Igbos who are old enough to experience Omoboriowo Akure riot in 80s must have warned their kinsmen as to what would befall them in eventuality of riot(war) in Akure. I ll implore Igbos to do what they have been doing for over 50years to maintain a peaceful relationship with Yorubas in that City. Igbos have made so much money and deserve to enjoy their sweat by staying away from trouble. Money gives you unnecessary pride and this pride could lead to one's downfall. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

wisdomguy4u: I will advise you to stay away from such riff raff gathering called Biafra sovereign rally otherwise, prepare to say your last prayer on earth before meeting the likes of Ojukwu and the rest . Why are Igbos looking for war where there is none? Why must life be all about Igbos? Are Igbos the only tribe in Nigeria? Igbos is the only tribe in the world that would look for trouble or war and cry blue murder or violation of human right when the war is consuming them. How on earth did you expect "the world" to listen to your agitation when you are coming out in thousands to disturb the peace of a whole city? They even went as far as threatening the peace-loving and law-abiding ones among Onitsha residents not to open their stores so as to avoid being attacked by the so called "Peaceful protesters". Why would "The world/UN" listen to you when civilised people around the world who are equally looking or agitating for their own independence are going about it in a peaceful way? Alex Salmon and other Scottish people wanted their iindependence from United Kingdom. The agitation for Scotland has been on for years before the independence poll was allowed and conducted last year later. Interestingly, Alex Salmon never ever incite Scottish people against English(They are like the Northerners cos they control UK govt), Welsh and of course Irish people. Artos of Catalan, Spain is equally touring the peaceful path of Scotland without any form of verbal attack on Spanish people or government. Rallies are organised in this civilised places i have mentioned after obtaining a rally permission from their local authority. Texas, US wanted to break away from the rest of US at a point and went about it in such a peaceful way that most US citizens didn't even know about it. I was living in US then, when Texas agitation was high You don't just jump on our streets with thousands of miscreants called Ipod and claim a peaceful protest when Police descends on you. If this Igbos style of agitation is allowed in any country, then everybody could go the street at little agitation for anything. Nnamdi Kanu is the most luckiest person on earth. Why? If Nnamdi Kanu had said half of what i personally heard from his mouth on Nigeria airwave in UK where i live(Kanu lives here too according to people which i pretty doubt), Kanu will be dancing in Belmash prison by now. Kanu would been tried on the basis of Terrorism. The moment you incite a person or group of people against an individual or group of people, your freedom is gone right there at that moment. It's 6 years imprisonment (minimum) in UK for inciting someone against an individual or group of people. The Muslims who shouted death to British soldiers at a religious rally were all sent to 6years imprisonment. Historically, Northern Ireland tour the same path Igbos are touring but were crushed by British soldiers. There are many ways to achieve what you are looking for without putting your people on a dangerous spot. Why can't Igbos start their protest in a strong terms by forcing all their Senators, house members and perm Sec and the rest from participating in Nigeria business or attending National assembly sections? If you really mean business, recall all your people from all part of Nigeria home and let Nigeria government see how much Igbos are ready to leave Nigeria for good. Igbos should start their agitation from Home(among themselves) before coming out to disturb our peace. The world is too busy to listen to the agitation for independence from uncivilised people who are calling Nigeria state all sort of names and the leader called Nnamdi Kanu is asking his followers to kill and attack others. Even Tibet that is 98% more popular is begging for attention talk less of Biafra awareness that remain within Igbos communities in Nigeria and here in western world. To Igbos youth in the East, don't be deceived by Nnamdi Kanu supposed rally pictures or videos. Those people you see in the pictures are Igbos and their few friends. Ipod or whatever you call it is not gaining any ground in US or UK. The supposed Igbos gathering/sovereign rallies were held by Igbos in Igbos communities. No recognition anywhere in those two countries i mentioned cos i am on ground in those two countries 10 Likes 1 Share |

deadie: Can you imagine this!!!! If Obi Onitsha has a special day to celebrate their deity/gods, that's tradition and everybody is expected to respect that. The Obi of Onitsha perceived Ngige to have disrespected that, hence, the curse on him which Igbos never condemned. The same thing about what we are discussing here. You are not allowed to wear your cap in Oba palace in Yoruba land. Let me bring Western world-UK into this; this is a country that is over 300 years old Why must i write English test as a commonwealth country citizen before obtaining British citizenship? Why must i shake Queen without hand gloves? Why must i bow down to the Queen? In Yoruba culture, it's a straight forward custom that you don't wear a crown or cap to King's palace. The ridiculous thing about all this is that White people who came to Nigeria on a visit even take their caps off while visiting palaces. Why our neighbors who should know better are playing ignorance game. Listen, i am not here to argue with you over this; there are times we need to say the truth and shame the devil. If things get out of hand, Igbos ll be forced to close their shops. The landlords of these Shops are Akure indegenes remember...... Obi of Onitsha is paying visit to Deji of Akure, nobody ll stop him from wearing his crown. Can someone marry in the East without dowry? Is all tribes that accept dowry? No but that's Igbo culture. Dowry is part of Igbos tradition and whoever that's ready to marry from there must be ready to pay it. Simple. 3 Likes |

Yujin: The real Akure Indegenes are not living in Akure cos people naturally prefer to stay away from their home town. 80% of Akure Indegenes live abroad( Outside Nigeria and within South west with few outside South West). The remaining 20% are our parents, siblings who are still in Schools and the traders. However, in that 20%; 12% are not educated and these are the guys that could make that state ungovernable for any state government. Mimiko and Agagu know much about what i am saying here. The population of Igbos in Akure is not up to 7% of the total population of the whole Akure population but they are freaking enjoying themselves to stupor as result of peaceful co-existence and good relationship with Yorubas in that city. Igbos are so comfortable in Akure that Igbos are not referred to in the Neighbourhood as Igbos. They are so comfortable that they celebrate their yam festival on the street of Akure....... Why would they want to disrespect the King of that City knowing fully well that, that would turn Akure Indegenes against them. It ll only take a day to destroy all the Igbos business in Akure by these miscreants who might seize this sort of opportunity to wreck havoc on Igbos businesses. All Igbos businesses are concentrated in Ilesha garage, Esso all the way to Ondo bypass and of course Arakale. Pls, how long would that take thise Akure indegenes to attack these three places? Less 6hrs, all the efforts of an innocent Igbo man would be gone in flames. Why would Igbos give room for this when no one is disturbing you? All Igbos need to do in all Yoruba states is to show some respect to their hosts. Its the same story in Western world despite their development and social exposure. If it all end up in a war, Igbos would be asked to leave, does that make sense? No. Please, i op they would all come together and leave happily as we were back in 80s/90s. 5 Likes |

Have you forgotten how Igbos were so happy when Obi was alleged to have cursed Senator Ngige for holding a political rally on the day of their traditional ccelebration?

I am an Akure indegene and it's a known fact that Igbos have enjoyed a peaceful co-existence with Yorubas in Akure for years. You need to see the Igbos in Akure to know what i am talking about; they have literally become Akure bona fide indegenes with their children speaking the local dialect fluently. However, it will be suicidal for Igbos not to be boundary conscious like their Hausas/Fulanis counterparts who are equally at the same level with Igbos as far as business and population are concerned. The Hausas/Fulanis own all the shops in Sabo along Odo-Ijoka road towards the state stadium and all the way towards the mini Sabo along Oba-Adesida road. They own all the shops in the Sabo at Odo-Ikoyi junction as well as the money exchange business by Post office junction towards Oba palace. These Hausas/Fulanis are making their freaking Benjamis but maintaining and keeping low profile. Igbos need to learn that spirit of humility and respect from these Hausas/Fulanis. In eventuality of Igbos being seen by Akure indegenes as tribal enemies, the outcome could better be imagined. Those guys aren't smiling menh cos war/fight is their daily watchwords. I believed that some Igbo elders witnessed what happened in Akure in early 80s(Omoboriowo riot in which Akure indegenes were burning and killing people on the streets). I ll implore Igbos not to allow the money they have made to get into their heads cos money is the bane of all evil. The peace and sanity they have enjoyed over 50years in Akure should be protected and cherished at all cost by obeying and respecting our traditional values. That's the only demand(Respect our cultural values) of Akure people from Igbos and others unlike where Igbos are being taxed by the indegenes. Nobody is taxing or demanding all sorts from Igbos in Akure and this alone should be appreciated by Igbos. 83 Likes 3 Shares |

You are very lucky young man. My own case was similar but with different dimension I used to live in US and later relocated to UK. I thought it ll not be nice as a single guy to leave all my money at the mercy of my Bank which is GTB. I decided to make my mum signatory to my Account in case of death or any unforeseen circumstances. However, i had about #5million + in my Ilesha branch Account and the money was on what GTB called Fixed deposit account(The Account has a particular name but couldn't remember). On that fateful day, my mum was on her way to her Store and saw two drivers having serious argument over who stole what they(the two drivers) never lost. As a Christian, she decided to talk to these guys to settle their differences but unknown to her, that she was already in the hands of "One chancer". That was how my mum got herself involved in something similar to yours. Eventually, she withdrew all my money batch by batch and gave all to these guys. I only realised that there was no money in my GTB Account when i checked my online banking Account. I thought it was a mistake at the side of the Bank. 1 Like |

I want you to be honest with yourself by looking at those Biafra demonstration pictures; those demonstrations held abroad and tell me those guys in pictures are not Igbos and their few friends. If Nnamdi Kanu try all what he said on the Nigeria airwave in UK, it's 6 years imprisonment, I repeat, 6 years imprisonment without option for fine. The moment you instigate or incite someone to attack/kill in any format, it's 6 years minimum. If you remember the case of 3 Muslims guys who shouted death to British soldiers about 6 years ago, they were sent to 6 years imprisonment. Alex Salmon; Scotland independence campaigner never incited Scottish people against Welsh, English and Irish people in his pursuit or struggle for the Independence of Scotland. The same thing applicable to Artos who is campaigning for Catalan independence in Spain. He never incite his people against Spanish people or government unlike Nnamdi Kanu. Kanu ought to have been arrested before now but Nigeria is a country where anything is possible.

It got to a point(1year plus) that my father wanted to ask them to leave but later changed his mind. I asked him why and he said i don't where you and your siblings would be tomorrow. The sort of stories abound with other landlords in Akure. I grow up with Igbos children in my neighbourhood and there was nothing like tribal affiliations and all that throughout my 26yrs in that neighbourhood. I see these Igbos in their tribal attires on Sundays going for their weekly meeting without any disturbance from any quarter. We attended the sane school called Sacred heart seminary cos it's Catholic school; Igbos were given the same privilege given to Yorubas. If you take a look at Ilesha garage spare parts shops, you will realise that Igbos are really enjoying themselves to stupor without any rivalry or unnecessary attentions. If you come down towards Oba Adesida road, Igbos are fully in charge of all Boutiques and Roadside merchandising business. However, by Igbos side, are Fulani/Hausas Sabo markets which is all about raw food and other related perishables. Equally, just across this market, you ll see Hausas/Fulanis who are into Money exchange business with millions in display during the day and all that. These Northerners are equally enjoy their sanity and peace. The funny thing about all this, is that, Hausas/Fulanis have more shops than Igbos around this market but remained respectful and relatively boundary conscious. This market is Oja Oba; the Yorubas occupied these markets with 100% pure Yorubas. These Yoruba main market can swallow these Igbos/Hausas/Fulanis shops altogether. Akure is the last place where Igbos want to try rubbish cos those Akure uneducated guys would send all Igbos out of business faster than they ever imagined. Ask anybody about a particular festival called Asoga; they would destroy Igbos business in that City in less than a day. If you take a walk to the other side of Oba Adesida, a place called Arakale, Igbos began to join Yorubas building and farm tools business in early 90s without any resistance from these old Yoruba papas who have been in the business for years. That's how Igbos were welcomed. Igbos are now in the same numbers with Yorubas along that massive and long road. The Igbos have completely dominated Electronic business along Oke Aro junction all the way to Oja-Isinkan without any taxation or touts exploitation in form of Owo Ori. However, The main market of Oja isinkan is 100% occupied by Yorubas who are into clothing and bags stuffs and this market could easily swallow all these Igbos shops. Finally, the same story at Nepa market with the main market filled up with Yorubas while the shops on the street are shared 50/50 with Igbos. I never knew Igbos are Igbos until i was at age of 20 thereabout cos there was nothing like tribal issue. I swear down, I later realise that most girls i dated in secondary schools are Igbos. These are girls that speak the local dialect fluently cos they were either born or brought down to Akure from the East when they were little childs. It ll be unfortunate if Igbos throw all these into bin out of disrespect and arrogance to Yoruba tradition. Ekiti kete would respond to this threat if Akure decides to deal with Igbos cos they are cousins. Here in UK where democracy and freedom of speech is strictly enshrined in their constitution, nobody on earth would dare their Queen and get away with it. Let's take a case of Farrod, the owners of Harrod shopping mall( The most expensive shopping mall in UK if not Europe. The man whose son impregnated Princess Diana) was not given a British passport simply cos of simple statement was taken by British as disrespect against their Queen. That man is over qualified but denied. Black controls South East London in terms of population. The South East is where those Igbo MPs were elected but you don't see these Black people disrespecting British culture and value, instead they embrace and cherished it. Thank God for few numbers of these Igbos in these Area, otherwise Igbos would have taunted the locals with all the chest beating rhetoric which would have stand against all these Igbos MPs. The funny thing about this is that Yorubas and Jamaicans have the largest numbers in these area. 11 Likes 3 Shares |

podosci: Even your master who imposed the democracy on you would kill you faster than you ever imagined if your Eze mistakenly go Queen palace with his local crown. Go and disrespect the Queen and see democracy and freedom of anything being thrown out of windows by the same democracy and non-abuse rhetoric promoters called British. I am indegene of Akure; both sides. I was born and brought up in that city and i can categorically tell you that Igbos are more or less like every bona fide Akure indegenes. We attend the same schools, build houses side by sides and allow our children to mix without any tribal affiliation. I see them on Sundays with their Igbos traditional attires going for their weekly meeting without any disturbance from anybody. As Yorubas in Akure, we have never felt threatened by Igbos presence in Akure despite all what we heard about their attitude towards others in the East(Yoruba traders who have been to the East). Igbos have been in Akure for years and for you to become Eze of Igbos in Akure, you must have known few things if not a lot about Akure traditions. Even as a little child with my fellow igbo friends in the same Akure, we all knew then that if you climb a particular heap in front of Oba palace, you would automatically become a slave in the palace and we all avoided it at all cost despite our stubbornness and playfulness. If a whole Eze of Igbos in Akure could claim not to much about tth tradition of his host, then, what's the point of making him an Eze. I thought being an Eze of Igbos in a particular town or city is to ensure that his kinsmen are well guarded and enlightened as to what to do or not to do. Why do Igbos like trouble where there is none? Why is only Igbos that always cause trouble wherever they are? In UK where the whole democracy rhetorics is being lipped at every passing seconds, as immigrants despite your British passport, you don't dare or disrespect their queen. If you do...... In recent time, Igbos in Akure have grown wings so much so that the older generation has begun to see this. 98% of original Akure indegenes are not living in that city, half of that 98% live abroad while the remaining half reside all over South West states and few outside South West, so Igbos have a plain ground with other Yorubas to do their business. There are Sabos and mini Sabos in the same Akure fully occipied by Hausa/Fulanis. They respect their host so much so that you won't even know that they occupy more shops in Akure than Igbos. 5 Likes 1 Share |
