Something has to be wrong with this Ibeto of a business magnate.

We can cry forever of how he was short-changed by Obasanjo to favour Dangote in the past but the truth remains that he is not that effective as a serious investor.

Where are signature projects today? He is barely known in Nigeria and hardly reckoned with in Africa. His global presence is almost non-existent.

I can't forget a personal experience I had some years ago.
I was trekking from Ijesha in Surulere to Mile 2. As I was passing through Ibeto Group premises at the place called Second Rainbow, after Sanya Bus Stop, I paused briefly...

I took in the scenery and did a mental calculation of the physical assets I could see and ended up shaking my head.

Disillusionment took the better part of me: I began to muse that that was a man who was contending with Dangote less than 20 years ago...

Today Dangote is not only Africa's richest man but the wealthiest black person alive but where is Ibeto?

Still doing some kind of buying and selling business or ready to employ professionals to upskill his business and make it a conglomerate/behemoth?

There are times we need to tell ourselves the truth and leave sentiments aside.....

We know you supported the following losers:

GEJ
Atiku
Saraki
Dino Maleye
Fayose
Ambode

and the list goes on..

I’ve noticed with nostalgia how Igbos are maligned for pitching their tents to a political party. Some folks say that that once the Igbos support your ambition, you’re hitting the rock. Others call it miscalculation, unsophistication etc. But can one be maligned because of his choice? Even the constitution has room for freedom of choice.
Recently, Edo state has been enmeshed in political logjam. It has become fierce and gone to the wires. Like always, supporters are taking sides but the Igbos are the only group maligned for taking side with Obaseki. Mind you, Obaseki is an APC member.
Some believe, Igbos are pushing Obaseki to his political grave. I don’t know how low can people go in political engagement.
You will remember that Igbos supported Ambode, but the battle consumed him. Everyone thought that since Ambode quietly left the scene, they will allow him some rest, but his fate today is that of a bird whose wings are clipped yet the legs are tied so it won’t fly.
Igbos hate intimidation. They fought slavery and chose death instead of slavery.
On this premise are Igbos urging Obaseki to fight since either ways are opaque. But today, he has his destiny in his hands, not in Oshiomole’s hand.
Stop insulting Igbos for their choice. They are not blaming anyone for it. They take responsibility. That was why they repeated the 2015 voting pattern in 2019, by rejecting APC to tell you 2015 was no mistake.
The north has started protesting. So is it not obvious that Igbos knew that this Government will fail? The country is finished economically and otherwise. If we are accurate about COVID19 death, you won’t come out tomorrow. But have you seen your president? Yet some people still say, “you put all your eggs in one basket”. What a joke.
Make you choice and allow other do.

Igboid:
OP. Adding Ikwerre, Ogba, Etche, Ekpeye to Igboland will not bring us any nearer to the sea.

Those groups do not offer Better sea access than SE already have with Obuaku in Abia state.

They are more southern, but their lands are not seacoasts and many don't have direct river access to the sea.
For example, Ikwerre access to the sea is via Bonny Rivers and almost same distance to the ocean as the one at Obuaku. The Bonny river southwards to the sea is controlled by the Ijaws.
So like in Obuaku, we will still need to reach agreement with Ijaws on international rivers sea access.

I have no issues with adding Igboid in Rivers state to Biafra , as its always good for brothers to stay together in unity, but I'm afraid, as far as sea access goes, those Igboids cannot offer us more than we already have in SE.

cosef:
Of course, yorubas buy lightskin with money, they invest a lot in cosmetics.

Tura cream and Hot movate are their favorite. Ask any Igbo man that sells cosmetics, the sukuras and modinats of eweduland are his biggest customers.

Lavisha:
Lightskin is cheap na.
Any fool can be lightskined

Lavisha:
Those yebhoes are just hypocrites.
The will call yourba Ofe mmmanu as if they don't eat oil..
They'll be shouting 'Brown roof' as if they don't use that galvanized sheets.
The called peeps asslickers as if they don't lick Ewusa anus..

Advancedman:
The guy Na igbo.

ibkayee:
Knew you’d say this, they can but I cba to debate over it with you. Ok, what if he were raped by a guy?

ibkayee:
Again, not what I’m asking. Would you personally brush it off and say it isn’t rape?

Would you tell your son that?

ibkayee:
Ok let’s try again, what if your son is over the age of consent?

ibkayee:
Not what I asked. If your male child was raped, would you personally brush it off and/or say it wasn’t rape because the law doesn’t recognise it as rape?

Sterope:
Are you always in the mood for sex?

What does this topic have to do with the wife that actually neglects her duty?

What is moral about treating your wife with respect?

Do you enjoy disrespect?

ibkayee:
I'm not talking about how far it will go in court, I'm talking about whether it's wrong or right and how she should've handled it. Plus the fact that it's a law doesn't automatically make it ethically right

Within the context of Nigerian law, a male being raped is not recognized as rape. If your male child were raped would you brush it off just because it isn't recognized by law?

Just because the law doesn’t recognize it, doesn’t mean it technically isn't rape or make it any less terrible

Hathor5:
In sickness you want to do her? Tell her and her family before they accept the bride price so that they know what kind of person they are dealing with right from the start or before that.

Hathor5:
So you feel her menstrual cramps when she is on her period I guess.

Sterope:
You don't rape your wife and call it marital right. It is not a right that you forcefully take. Her body still remains her body. You don't lose autonomy because you decided to marry a beastly, disrespectful wicked human being.

It is not marital rape but it is still assault.

fykes:
Me wey deyt tear clothe for my wife body anyhow....


Does it mean I now have rapist tendencies
