pls why did you drag my name into this thread yes i am markfemi1 and markfemi2
unity beggers with niger delta

Imo and Abia are part of Niger Delta, hope u know?

Scholes007:
Pls stop attaching yourself to Igbo or her related problems, focus on yours.

He is even ashamed to mention his tribe hence his use of south south.

Osaze007:
I have also observed how ibo will say nigeria is a british creation seems they have forgotten old eastern region is a british creation as a result it has also expired
why cant ibos stay on their own
why must they lay claim to ss by force

pls moving foward any biafran that claims niger delta may thunder fire such a biafran

What is south south? Obviously you are ashamed of your tribe. Igbos are interested in Igbos in Delta state and Rivers state so carry your useless south south noise out of here pls.
And when you say Niger Delta pls note that Imo and Abia States are also part of it so stop confusing yourself.

Osuhatesosu:
Not all Ibos are ipob jews, but all ipob jews are illiterate Ibos. Even the non-ipob amongst them are still filled with hate and envy for Yorubas.

Yea. Ipobs are gang of miscreants so attack them as such. We too as igbos do attack them so pls face them as touts.
They feel they are representing igbos but they are not.

kn23h:
Will you keep kwayet

When will you ibos smarten up and realize that people and political parties are using Ibos to play bingo?

FFK/Fayose - PDP

Afenifere - Chopped PDP election money

Kemi - used Biafran cause to gain popularity, they nicknamed her Nkem, then she dumped the lost cause.

These fools actually think Yorubas outside of the political fold, really care about Biafra.

Are you attacking ipob touts or igbos ?

Thewrath:
So these bloody Sudanese lunatics want to take the easy way out abi,after Biafra has done the walk!

They should not even try it,these is the farthest a people who claim to want oodua republic have gone!

You are a shame to the igbos. A people that are humble enough to build bridge is what is making u exhibit such level of craze.

Why are you ipob touts this foolish? Learn humility from Yoruba.

Good advice. If only those mumu ipob miscreants will take it.

Etogist:
Please there is a land at Umueri, a plot is just 1.5 million. If you need one let me know and stop peddling lies that Igbos don't allow order regions to buy land in their area. Other regions don't buy land from the east or even develop the ones given to them for free because they don't believe in one Nigeria. They only give lip service to one Nigeria when it suits them.

That guy is confused and frustrated in life. Inferiority complex worries him a lot that igbos are buying up their lands and taken over businesses in their land.
The occupation that majority of Akwa Ibom people do in Igbo land, in Port Harcourt and even in Cross River State is okada riding. In ph it is keke. He wants to blame the failure of his people in business on Igbo. Lol.

His people are poor and selling their lands to igbos so as to get money to survive and he is here weeping and wailing.
Recently cross Rivers governor begged Innoson motors to come establish his company in their state. Tomorrow now this fool here will start wailing about igbos buying up their land. If he is serious he should rather tell his people to stop selling land to igbos or bury his head in shame.

He is wailing about igbos owing oil well in the South south as if its only south south that has oil well
He forgets that Imo state, Abia State and Anambra state has oil wells too.

He cries bitterly about Tony Elumelu owning oil without knowing that Elumelu is an Igbo man from Delta state.

Don't mind the frustrated fool.

I dont comment over everything though.

I know the pranks u are playing with Biafra news. Fake news so i no dey watch.,

Imo

The arewa youths missed it at first. They should have just faced the foolish Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB gang of touts than facing the entire Igbo.

Now he has faced ipob when he has already spoilt things. I still advice Igbos in the north and even the southerners, by extention to pls vacate the north before the october date, come back and let's watch them for some time before u go back. We can't trust the north and their killing venture at the slightest provocation.

Omofunaab2:
Yoruba political leaders in lagos needs to stop this madness of allowing igbos to aspire in lagos whether chairman or vice chairman ... . I don't care if they populate festac or not.. just fill up the council seats with Yoruba, dats all.

Same igbos called it an abomination for an hausa man to vie for a councillorship seat in Ebonyi State....

Mbaise people in Imo state said a man from anambra can never be a bishop in ahiara diocese

Abia State sacked non-indigenes from their civil service.


I don't understand why we are still practising politics of inclusion in the south west... Enough of all these sophistication and accommodating nonsense jare...It doesn't stop them from hating yorubas

I agree with most of your points here but u must remember that politics is a game of numbers. If fielding a Yoruba /Igbo ticket will help a party to win then they should go for it.
Moreover, ipob does not represent igbos rather they are a gang of fools.

Meanwhile i am an Igbo man. Ipob fools take note before you scream afonja.

MediumStout:
Despite the fact that I'm a yoruba, i see Osinbajo as a weakling instead of a pastor. The position he holds currently does not require diplomacy. Nnamdi Kanu has clearly violated the bail conditions given by the courts yet the bastard is Still roaming free. Why on earth will such a renegade be allowed to roam free in the south east filled with gullible frustrated youths who are ready to become another Bokoharam This is why i love Buhari. Nnamdi Kanu would have remained in prison If baba was around. Buhari doesn't care about court orders and that's the way to deal with non entities like Kanu. Biafra is treason, biafra is dead and buried in 1970. One Nigeria we shall remain

Unfortunately you are the one not being wise here. Osibanjo is wise by ignoring Nnamdi Kanu. Any arrest of him will further boost their popularity and attract more sympathy.

It will even create a chaos situation around the east, the next thing you will hear is that the Yorubas created a chaos situation in Igbo land and this will further destroy the unity of the southern Nigeria which some of us are working to achieve. Nobody will remember that Osibanjo did what he did as the President and not as a Yoruba man.
The north will not even shield him since they are not happy that he is occupying the position of their brother. They will rather watch the south fight themselves and have Osibanjo's govt destabilised.
Be wise.
If Kanu will be re-arrested let it be done by Buhari, a northerner. Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB members are touts, let's not allow them destroy whatever is left of the southern unity.

Meanwhile i am an Igbo man. Ipob miscreants take note before u say afonja.

shukuokukobambi:
Of course what you wrote in the OP is correct which is why I gave the first like on your post despite my taunts

My grouse is that you should have spoken out earlier if you had seen how dumb and gullible the ipob touts were and how much bad name they're giving the Igbo.

Meanwhile, you can't be anything to them than another ewedu drinking afonja no matter how sensible your post

When i first heard of the IPOB station i listened to the station and the level of insult Nnamdi Kanu was throwing there was quite irritating so i complained about it to the people who told me about the radio.

My observations about the insult didn't even bother them so i didnt have the interest to continue listening to the radio. I argued severally with ipob members offline but they are so brainwashed that they dont listen to contrary opinion. I felt bad when Nnamdi was arrested and the attendant popularity it gave them. Those ipob are more irritating offline than online.

Some of us started fighting them before they became popular

shukuokukobambi:
You're the foolish one who like a dog chasing its own tail has no idea its a futile exercise

No one needs to attack Igbo. Igbo Jews aka ipob are attacking Igbo Christians already. Which are you? Igbo Jew or Igbo Christian?

Once again, for daring to attack ipob, you're an ewedu drinking afonja

You only confirmed what i wrote in the op.

shukuokukobambi:
Now the sh!t don hit the fan scatter everywhere

Were you not insulting me the other day when I was pointing out something similar? Were you not also insulting and hating? Its time you admit hate runs in your blood and ipob are just manifesting it in full glare of the public so enjoy it. Its too late to shut the barn, the cattle have bolted

Meanwhile, let me be the first to say it: you're an afonja ewedu drinker

I hope u are not been foolish. Get any post that i condemned anybody who is against ipob and post it here.
Anybody who attack the igbos will always get a fire back from me. I am not begging anybody not to attack the igbos but don't get things mixed up. Attack ipob over their actions and dont generalize it as an Igbo thing.

Attack the igbos when it is an igbo thing. That's my point.

FUNNYBONE1:
Coming from a pained miscreant.

A miscreant cannot condemn a miscreant since they have much in common
You guys are really pathetic.

The IPOB miscreants are so irritating. Here are some of their ugly characteristics -
1. They dont hesitate to engage in throwing insults at anybody that has a contrary opinion to theirs.
2. They follow Nnamdi Kanu like zombie.
3. They major in cheast beating and minor in humility.
4. They hardly present convincing points during argument.
5. Hate is their second name. For example Nnamdi Hate Kanu.
6. Their mumu rings quite high. For example, they went jubilating on the streets when Trump won his election with the hope that Trump will give them Biafra.
7. Anybody who opens thread criticising them is Afonja including those of us who are Igbo. These guys are pathetic.

I feel bad when other tribes address this miscreants as if they represent Igbos. They are a gang of incorrigible touts they are not a tribe. People should stop addressing them as a tribe. It gives them a false sense of being large. They are simply called ipob.

Ventura1:
Its is obvious with the look of the things that Arewa has gone into alliance with people from the south east and south south against the Yoruba's. The sudden recent consistent outburst by the so called Arewa youths against the yoruba and the friendship between the North led by Al-mustapha and the East led by Nwazurike has pointed to that fact.

Also, the moves by the South-east and South-south governors to forge alliance is obviously to tackle the south-west. This and many more moves is an indication to that effect, It is REAL!. We the Yoruba should guide our loins and take heed, they have done it before and fail and they will also failed now, We'll achieve it with no violence.

Hypocrisy raised to the power 2
Why are you crying wolf where there is none? You people have been raining abuses on igbos due to the stubborn displays by ipob miscreants and here you are crying again.

You saw the Arewa miscreants give igbos quit notice to igbos instead of giving it to ipob miscreants and u people rejoiced and mocked the Igbo nation rather than mock the IPOB touts why are you crying again.

You and those of us who want one Nigeria are working towards it but we need to achieve a united southern Nigeria in order to cut the excesses of the core north and this we have achieved by pulling out the middle belt to stand on their own. Next is the south south and south east strengthening their tie. The southern senators have formed their forum. Last week some southern elders formed their forum. We are beginning to see messages that promotes southern unity spreading on the social media. Gradually we will all get there.
Pls take your message of hate and disunity elsewhere. We all must unite to cut the excesses of the Hausa - Fulani. Don't try to make Yoruba look as the victim. We can't continue this way pls.

God bless the south and the middle belt.

Jonathan39:
The op is intelligent. Am an igbo from anambra. The problem with igbo and Yoruba is pride until the igbo and Yoruba unite, the North will continue doing what they like in Nigeria. But do you think after the Yorubas joined hand with the north and external forces to fight the Igbos during biafra war,we will easily work with them? Only God can unite the South.

We can work with them if we decide to. We all need to manage the weaknesses of each other in order to achieve success. Every tribe has their weakness. We can't continue to fall for the gimmicks of the illiterate north. The south is too eduxated to continue doing that.

THE IGBOS AND THE YORUBA 'COLD WAR'; A CASE FOR SOUTHERN UNITY.

By Novus Oriens

"Power is like a shadow. It resides exactly where men who are under its control think it resides"

The above is true with regards to the situation of Southerners in the Nigerian experiment.

We think the Fulanis are the ones that have been holding power and because we think and believe so, it actually look so. Because of this assumed knowledge, we hand over our destinies, our future and those of our children to a people who are not above 11 million, have little or no education and contribute little or nothing to the national pulse.

What if I told you that the real power rests in the South and with southerners but that the mutual distrust and foolish superiority contest between Igbos and Yorubas is the biggest obstacle to wielding this power? This senseless feud between these two Southern giants is also the biggest enabler and promoter of the fulani Oligarchy.

The southern part of Nigeria owns the oil which feeds the entire country. Without the oil today, there is no economy and there is no Nigeria. The same south controls the commercial sector of the economy. The media is still owned and controlled by the South.

When a people owns the only thing that is feeding a whole country and still control commerce plus the media through which people's thoughts and opinions about anything can be shaped and can equally boast of the best human resources, what else does it take for such a people to wield power in such a country?

Unity!

The few fulanis who have been running this country directly and indirectly since independence, what do they have?

Unity!

When the fulani Oligarchs want to achieve an aim, they effortlessly find a way to get every northern minorities such as Christians and middle Belts on their side even when they almost always end up discarding these same minorities and even killing them once the aim is achieved.

Now, ask yourself: how have the fulani Oligarchs managed to turn the entire Nigeria into an 'Animal Farm' with them as the only "Napoleon' despite their low education and the fact that all the prerequisites/bargaining chips for acquiring and wielding power are domiciled in the South??

Igbo-Yoruba 'cold war'! This, right here, is the answer.

The day the two biggest southern ethnic groups --The Igbos and The Yorubas --decide to put a stop to their needless bickering and channel all their energy towards confronting their common enemy --the children of Danfodio--, that is the day the Fulani Oligarchs will understand that even though the king is the one with the crown, he is nothing without the kingmakers and the people.

The Fulanis are not runing Nigeria because they are smarter than others. Far from it. They are messing with the destinies of over 180million people because the two Southern big brothers with the wherewithal to end their murderous reign of impunity are busy chasing rats while their houses are afire.

I am no historian neither do I pride myself as a man of letters but I know for a fact that the biggest weapon of the fulanis is neither guns nor bombs. Their biggest weapon is their ability to identify their opponents' weak points or even create one where none exists, magnify it and use same to create division amongst them just so they would effortlessly implement their Divide And Rule tactics.

Sadly, they have succeded in using this weapon against Southern Nigeria's two biggest ethnic groups.

Throughout history, all the wars and woes visited on both the Igbos and the Yorubas all came from the fulanis. There is no record of ethnic clash between these two humane southern Nations.

No time has these two people ever disagreed violently.

Strangely, the mutual suspicion that exist between these two great peoples seem far greater than the one they harbour against their common oppressor, the Scions of Danfodio.

It was not the Igbos who imprisoned Awolowo and killed thousands of Yoruba youths who protested the unjust imprisonment for days in different Yoruba cities in 1963. It was the fulanis and the killing was done by another fulani man, Muhammadu Buhari, who was the then platoon commander, 2nd infantry brigade, Abeokuta. That same year, Buhari was gifted with double promotion on the same day by the govt of Tafawa Balewa.

It was not the Igbos who imprisoned many Yoruba leaders, forced others into exile and killed others like Abiola after annuling his presidential victory.

It was not the Igbos who attacked Yoruba citizens in Lagos neither was it the Igbos who desecrated Yoruba cradle of civilisation, Ile-Ife by cutting off the head of a Yoruba citizen and parading it along the street, thereby sparking off a bloody ethnic clash that ended in the arrest of only the Yorubas including an Oba by the fulani president and his fulani security agents.

It is not Igbo herdsmen that kidnapped a yoruba son, Chief Olu Falae and have been going about terrorizing and killing Yorubas in Osun, Ogun, Kwara etc with govt-sponsored impunity.

On the other hand,

It wasn't the Yorubas that killed thousands of Igbos in the 1945 Jos pogrom and 1953 kano pogrom.

It was not the Yorubas who slaughtered millions of Igbos in the North after the first 1966 coup.

It was not the Yorubas who jailed an Igbo son, Alex Ekwueme who was only the vice president while the president, Shehu Shagari, a fulani, was left in a cosy apartment in the govt house. It was a Fulani man, Muhammadu Buhari who did this in 1984 after overthrowing the then govt in a coup.

Was it the Yorubas that is holding Nnamdi Kanu? Or was it the Yorubas who rained bullets and acid on hundreds of Igbo sons and daughters praying inside a school field in Abia state on Feb.9th, 2016 and those remembering their Biafran heros inside a church in Onitsha on May 29-30, that same year?

Is it Yoruba herdsmen that have been killing, maiming and raping villagers in Nimbo, Nsukka, Awgu Bende Council etc, all in Igbo land?

Today, even Jack, my two day old puppy knows that Nigeria CANNOT work as presently constituted. It was the rejection of the Aburi Accord by the Fulani Oligarchs which would have restructured Nigeria as a Confederation that led to the Biafran war. Today, the Yorubas want a restructured country. The Niger Delta want the same thing. The Igbos want Biafra BECAUSE Nigeria has refused to restructure.

Who are the only people resisting the call for restructuring, thereby holding everyone to ransom? Your guess is as good as mine.

Dear Yorubas and Igbos, what exactly are you dragging?

Why have you refused to realise that you have a common enemy, a very ruthless common enemy who have kept you busy fighting among yourselves while he's busy ruining your future and that of your unborn generation?

Can you not see that your siblings; Ijaws, Urhobo, Edo, etc are all looking up to you for that 'big brother' leadership and direction?

Can't you see that the fulanis are not really the problem? You are! Your disunity is!

You have no reason to be fighting.

Was it not a Yoruba man, Lt. Col Fajuyi, who chose to die with his visitor and commander-in-Chief, Thomas Umunnakwe Aguyi-Ironsi, an Igbo man, rather than give him up to the Hausa/fulani soldiers on 28th July, 1966?

Was it not an Igbo man, Odumegwu Ojukwu, who released Obafemi Awolowo from calabar prison and sent a squad of Eastern Nigerian policemen who escorted him to Ikenne, Ijebu, his home town?

You pride yourselves as the two most educated people in the country, yet your best brains have been reduced to playing 2nd fiddle to the Scions of Danfodio who are mostly without even a secondary school certificate.

In 1979, it was one of the best Igbo brains, Alex Ekwueme, playing 2nd fiddle to Shehu Shagari.
In 1983/84, it was Idiagbo playing 2nd fiddle to a Buhari who had no certificate.
In 2015, it is a Yoruba professor of law still in political purgatory under the same fulani-born Muhammadu Buhari who has now acquired a certificate........NEPA bill certificate.

Ojukwu is dead. So is Awolowo. And since I was born, Igbos and Yorubas have never killed each other. How about we put the gory stories of the war behind us and save ourselves and unborn children from this danger that is staring us in the face?

It is always the descendants of Danfodio doing all the killing, all the subjugation and''' slavery and we, the entire south have always been the victim.

In a nutshell, Novus is simply saying that the Igbos and the Yorubas should channel their energy towards confronting their common enemy. You can join forces to fight a formidable enemy and still remain ethnically patriotic to your respective ethnic groups!

Wisdom is profitable to direct.

AltarBoy1:
How do you intend to employ and feed all the Igbos that will return to SE once Biafra has been actualized? Wch among the 5 states in the east can survive without FG allocation. So, how will the state of Biafra employ and pay these people. Have it occurred to you guys that there are a lot of Igbo in the federal civil service. There are quite a number of Igbos working in other state govt outside the SE. Virtually every higher institution in the north have an Igbo man lecturing or working there, same with hospitals and some other institutions. These does not include the once who are into business.
It’s obvious that if we break, people from other region would not want us to still remain there. So, how do you intend to cater for the Igbo business owners that will return home? Have any of you ever gone to the major markets in the north. From Suleja to Wuse, to Sokoto, Kebbi, Kano, Funtua, Zaria, Kaduna… All these states have a very large population of Igbos doing business there. How do u intend to take care of them or provide alternative means for them?

My friend you ve done a good job by putting down some verifiable points to the IDIOTIC PEOPLE OF BIAFRA (IPOB). Their idiocy wont allow them to give a thought to contrary opinion. Dont bother yourself about the usual stup'dity that they are displaying here. They do same to me. Each time i point out truth to them they brand me afonja. You can imagine how daft they are to believe that all of us in Igbo land are members of their useless IPOB. Just keep on the good exposition you are doing.

This is why i called on Igbos sometime ago to rise up and counter these IPOB touts. Such a useless set of people cannot be allowed to flourish neither can they be allowed to keep parading themselves as the face of igbos.

chiagozien:
apc wise man.what i found out is that apc is a virus that every apc member reason like buhari.if you are not mad you would have know ipob have nothing to do with any political party,i joined ipob in 2014 maybe it was apc that was power then.you can call us what ever you like but you cant beat us.you are just.....

I am not interested in Nigeria political parties. I vote individuals not party. So far i am not impressed with Buhari so i am not on his side now. Yet this doesnt make Jonathan good. Jonathan failed.
IPOB is a gang of touts. As far as i am concerned ipob means idiotic people of biafra.

obiech:
Bro(that is if you are really Igbo oo ) nobody hate Yoruba's because of any 2015 election shii or whatever .......Igbo's call them backbiters mainly because of the civil war and the way they carry Biafra matter for their head but Igbo's still prefer them to Fulani Muslim

And i said it here in my OP that every tribe has their negative side. Yoruba has hypocritical tendencies while Igbo has chest beating issues but rather than keep rehashing the ugly incidence of the civil war, we should rather learn to manage each other's weaknesses very well and keep moving forward.

I am an Igbo man from Imo state, how many times will i say it? Go to my past posts and read if you are in doubt.

TheKingIsHere:
Did Obasanjo treat the SS well? The answer is no. Infact Obasanjo supposed to be rottening in jail for the bloody massacre of odi village. But yet he was voted in to power the second time by the entire South(SS, SE and SW)

That's is what brotherhood is which the yorubas are yet to learn.

If you have grieviance against a brother tell him so that he can amend his ways. Don't backstab him and wish him failure for it cuz karma is always there to teach you a bitter lesson

Jonathan got very reasonable number of votes from the southwest states so dont make it look as if he was so poorly voted for there.

The truth is that 1999 is far different from 2015. People are more exposed. People got tired of the laxity of Jonathan that gave way for massive corruption so they had to go for an alternative.

There was a time that yoruba elders met with GEJ and tabled their perceived marginalization to him but what did he do? (the thread is here in nairaland. look for it) Nothing much and some of them went for another candidate.

In the coming election you will still see a different voting pattern as people are getting tired of Buhari's government. You people should accept the fact that nothing is static in politics and even in life. Re-alignments are already taking place now in preparation for 2019 election. Be wise and stop making noise about backstabbing Jonathan. That man messed up pls.

For how long shall you mourn the death of Saul

Gutter language of ipob.
When i call u people touts people may not understand but here it is obvious. U people r so disgusting. Chineke naputa unu na ndu ojoo na ndu iberibe unu na ebi.
U guys are pathetic.
I ve been been banned here severally for correcting u people or whatever but i wont stop. I just came out from a ban yesterday. I wont stop talking to you people. Silly ipob touts.

Be reasonable for once. Go through my past posts and stop making a mess of yourself pls. Don't tell me that you are so daft to believe that all Igbos agree with your ipob.

Answer the two questions i asked in the op.
