Biko fellow Indigbo pls and pls when are we going to wake up from the nightmare of Biafra and get on with live as it is? Are we going to keep crying Biafra till eternity or what for goodness sake??

It was the same war that had made me not to have a single uncle till date 5 of them were drafted to Biafra Army and were taken away by this same Biafra soldiers and none of them return till date it was this shock that put my grandfather on sick bed till he died some years ago only my dad and his siter are the only surviving kids but when I grew up I asked my grandma please ma who were the people that came to took away your boys my grand told me it was Biafra Army and she even named the Lieutenat and I asked again those who took away your boys were they Yoruba or Hausa or do they speak Yoruba or Hausa she said No they were Igbo Biafra Soldier this is where I called myself to reasoning and asked myself so what is the offence the Yoruba committed that Igbo hate them this much? Absolute No offence at all.

It was not Yoruba who sent Igbo to war neither Hausa. It was not Yoruba who brought Gun and killed the million souls neither Hausa so why hating these people is it because Awolowo refused to followed up the war or is it because he told the govt of that time to stop providing food for the East in other to stop them please is this an offense?? Can anyone in his honest mind be feeding his enermy? If Awolowo back out please is he not a man to decide for himself to say YES or NO? Aburi Accord was the starter of the war according to the history but if an Accord is broken please is it to fight War the solution Biko please where did Awolowo committed Genocide any proof Please let us tell ourselves the truth orelse we will remain a shadow in this country called Nigeria and it was this uncalled for hates that has be a clog in the wheel of Igbo becoming the president of this and to be honest with this hate in our heart Igbo man can never rule Nigeria till heaven come take it or leave it.

I said it before and will say it again that in Nigeria soil its only Yoruba tribe that recognised us as Human beign or as part of Nigeria and its same Yoruba we hated so much. How I wish any Igbo man can disguise and sit where Hausa elite are and discussing Nigeria issue then you will know that Hausa see us as a complete allien in Nigeria never value us and they only know us when they want to use us and after using us dump us then Hausa is Igbo frien but when it come to who is who we are no where and nobody to them FACT> i know what i'm saying. I knw this may anger some but that is the truth I hate no tribe for Biafra failure rather I hate Ojukwu for going to war the entire Igbo never sent him and wastes lives in million and none of his own immediate family died on the course whereas I alone lost 5 uncles at a go. Let Achebe go and rest for now he has done a lot and he need rest for now. God bless.

You have spoken well and I know many igbo will call you names for this.
No matter how we try to make friends with igbo, they just hate without bounds. The war cannot be blamed on yorubas. Yorubas did not cause it.
I have many igbos in my work place. Atimes I get pissed off with the way they behave. I just ask. What's the basis of all these hatred? No matter how accommodating or friendly we are to these people, they just put it in our mouth.

Tomorrow, you will see another thread/post about OBJ.
Boko-haram murder them everyday, they won't talk about that. They will keep busy looking for yorubas to make scape goat.

shut your dirty mouth and show me where igbos mocked soyinka. if you have facts to prove achebe wrong come out and publish your own account, not even obasanjo or gowon who are stil alive have come out to prove him wrong. secondly the book is not igbos writting about yorubas its achebe writting his account og the war, mumu

You said "shut your dirty mouth". I guess that's the best thing to do. I guess that's what obasanjo and gowon are doing. After all who is achebe? Obasanjo and gowon were presidents/head of state. They are no way in the same league with A̶̲̥̅​ novel writer.
They can't descend so low to reply him. He is just like A̶̲̥̅​ musician. He can sing whatever he likes so people can buy his album.
You know what, you are right. Yorubas should just shut up and ignore that hungry author. He doesn't deserve our attention.

I salute you yoruba people in the house. You did not slack at all. I am really impressed. They though they can distort history. Who can satisfy these igbo people. Wole soyink who fought for biafra, prosecuted for biafra. Is he not yoruba? How do igbos talk about him? They still mock soyinka. Why? Because he is yoruba.
They are just bigots. Tomorrow they will open another thread highlighting the evil yorubas have perpetrated. As if we don't have their history too.
Sour haters.

A̶̲̥̅​ coward liar. Why didn't he write this when awo was alive? Why accusing the dead. Noble lunatic. I used to respect him before, but henceforth my perception of him has changed. What's all these noble blah blah. Wole Soyinka had it. And Osama also had it. Its not new to us.

Abeg go suck your toilet tissue called novel. We are not interested. Pls pls. Technology is advancing. Abeg how many Nigerians are into stem cell research? Let's change the topic joor.

igbos dont hate anybody , we live all over nigeria ,employ people from all over nigeria , marry from all the tribes. achebe criticizing awolowo and gowon who where heading the federal government during the war does not mean igbos hate yorubas, use your brain for once.

Which igbo state is friendly to visitors as yoruba states.
Critize your leaders who have been selling you since. You will leave the truth and blame other people for your downfall.

We hate all the tribes in Nigeria, we always find faults of other tribes. Other tribes offended us. Ijaw, calabar, yoruba, hausa, fulanis all offended us.

We are saints, we have never offended anyone.

Igbos are just like arabs/muslims. The whole world offended arabs. Arabs are currently fighting the whole planet because the whole planet offended them. They keep avenging the death of their brothers killed by xtian/west.
Are all these excuses to kill and hate genuine? No. It just what we called "bigot", "racism" and tribalism. Its too much for these igbos. No other trribe is as friendly as yorubas, yet, igbo hate them.
Its just all about hating other tribes.

Achebe's tribesman (Mr. Globe) to Awolowo's Daughter: I am disappointed with the international court of justice for not trying Awolowo (the ancestor of a useless tribe) for genocide post humously.

No wonder hausa people slaughter ibo in the north everyday. I am A̶̲̥̅​ christian yoruba$ but, I think hausas are better and friendly. Imagine A̶̲̥̅​n ibo man calling Yorubas useless tribe. We all know what happened during the military era. No leader was A̶̲̥̅​ saint then, because Aguyi Ironsi took part in coup plot, we should call ibo people dogs? You don't judge the whole tribe based on one person. We have tinubu, A̶̲̥̅​ yoruba man aligning himself with hausas/boko-harams. Does that mean all Yorubas supports his view?
The truth is, ibo just hate everybody, they the ijawa, hausa, fulanis etal.
They disgustingly hate yorubas because of jealous. They can never measure up to Yorubas in education and civilization. We are the light of Nigeria. Civilization starts from Lagos. LOl

Why is sexkill angry? Its like she is in her...period.

You have to face the ugly reality. Both of you are wasting away right now. The best thing is to do the needful to save you and ur wife.
Its true that your relationship may explode. But you need to compare between
1. Lifetime Guilt and barrenness
2. Reset button.

Choose from the 2 above.

It should be noted that: "people makes mistake, but the abilIty to embark on damage control is d deal"
You made a grave mistake, deal with it like A̶̲̥̅​ man.

-I suppose this is also one of their fears

I thought there is A̶̲̥̅​ difference between the word "date" and "married"

The topic clearly said "date"

I have dated A̶̲̥̅​n older woman before.
She was 6 years older. We could have gotten married, but I wasn't ready then.
No big deal jor.

bros nice explanation!
But these christians cretins are deaf and dumb and ashame to accept that, they rathere listen to the lies of their pastors than bishops than accept islam as the only salvation.

Jazakallahu kair...

Are you saying your quran is not true again. You quoted one passage where thousands of verses urged muslims to kill Jews, Christins, Budist and everyother people.
Liars

I reserve my comment until naija is divided in 3 countries. (A). Federal republic of biafra. (B). Federal republic of eko ni baje. (C). Federal republic of boko haram

No you got it wrong.

1. Federal republic of Okija, 2. Federal rep of odua 3. Federal repubic of Arewa

I don't know if a blanket dismissal of this idea serves us best. China is on course to be perhaps the biggest and most influential economy in the world. I am really not sure it is a bad thing for Nigeria to proactively prepare a generation that will be up to speed at conversing with a Nation most likely to be the world's biggest giant, in every sense of the word. I actually even advice young relatives to consider a second 'world' language (French, Spanish et al) to give them a competitive edge in an increasingly challenging world.

Also, the argument of introducing it at University level is fine but it is a scientific fact that human beings are most capable of learning language while very young. It may not be a bad idea to introduce it at secondary school level. An idea worth discussing robustly to note the pros and cons. I personally would support my children to learn Mandarin.

And who tells you China will become the next super power? On what ground? If not for the natural disasters affecting Japan, where was China before?

Next, they will start learning Japaneses the third largest economy and India the fourth. Slaves of world powers.

There is no way chelsea could attack when lampard is on the field. Dimatteo gambles A̶̲̥̅​ lot.

Is toress doing all those intentionally? Even mikel will score all those games. When is chelsea gonna get A̶̲̥̅​ striker?

Wow, christian should know all these secrets. They need to know more about islam.

Christianity is a worldly religion,i hav study d bible extensively (both new testament and old testament)4 every bad deed dat exist in dis world,there is a verse in d bible dat support it,even d drinking of alcoholic drinks,can anybody tel me what is in corithians 1,chapter 14,verse 34.what does it says,then why are we having all dis prophetess in churches,i don't even think there is a church in nigeria where a woman doesn't speak there on a daily basis.GBAM

Contrary to what islam preaches, women are not meant to be slaves of men. Islam won't let them talk in the public, beat them at the slightest excuse, stock them in the house of A̶̲̥̅​ single man, use them anyhow men want.
David (Dauda) was punished by God for snatching another man's wife. Mohammed did the samething and he became A̶̲̥̅​ celeb.
Sleeping with A̶̲̥̅​ six years old girl is A̶̲̥̅​ taboo to A̶̲̥̅​ sane person. It was A̶̲̥̅​ norm to mohammed. How on earth will A̶̲̥̅​ sane person choose to follow mohammed. If worst come to worst, I would rather follow guru maraji. I'm ok with Jesus right now. Because he never sinned for once, Mohammed even confirmed it.

Hey women are not meant to be slaves of men. There are stories of women leading Israelites to war and even ruled Israel.
Bible = words of God + account of events.
You seems confusing the two. Read the bible all over again.
The bible did not tell anybody to have se.x with A̶̲̥̅​ six years old girl. What mohammed did is called "pedophile". Its A̶̲̥̅​ taboo to sane people.
The bible took account of how David (Dauda) snatched another man's wife and God punished him throughout his life. Yet, mohammed did the samething and he was A̶̲̥̅​ celeb. That alone should raise A̶̲̥̅​ question of "Did God actually send him?" God is A̶̲̥̅​ God of holiness, what is he doing with A̶̲̥̅​ rotten/dirty man like that? I even respect TB Joshua than him.

ABAKA72: the interlectual deficency amoung chelsea fans is why people call them agberos, anyway, you don't expect traders, mechanics, mai ruwas and okada operators to carry out resarch to know the status of their team. Winning the UCL Will not bring chelsea to parity with Arsenal. And for the ignorant, there is a club called Nortingham forest, they won the UCL 2 times, do you know that Aston villa won the UCL before chelsea, does that make them bigger than chelsea. So winning the UCL is no big deal, any club can win it when their time comes. Arsenal remains a bigger club than chelsea, there is nothing anybody can do about it.

Coming from A̶̲̥̅​ jealous, hate filled, sour looser. The more you hate us, the more we progress. Lousy fans. They were everywhere shouting how they r gonna destroy chelsea. Now that they failed, they started calling us names. Name calling won't help your life. Agbero club won Champions league. Wetin you, educated elite win?

old traford = old toilet

Where is van pu.s.sy?

Unlucky chelsea, Torres could have made it 3:1

Referee will save the day

Up referee

Chelsea dont play with mouth, we get it done on the pitch. Till tomorrow, Arsenal fans can continue winning on Nairaland. Just the way they won on Napoli, Benfica, Barca, Bayern. Please we cant shout. Bring your arguments to the pitch. The last person we can argue with are under-achievers club.

Abeg ManUnited/Liverpool/Barca fans da? Where una dey jare? Whatzup?

Arsenal fans, get this straight into your head. The ManCity you drew was still the same ManCity stoke drew.
You are loosing it if thats why you are making noise. Stop making noise. Wigan/Swansea is your equal.
Chelsea is not your equal.

You are a chelsea fan and NOT a chelsea fans...I am sick and tired of hearing and seeing this smh...
@TOPIC
I hope chelsea wins sha... Up blues!!!

The game is close.

Arsenal have played Mancity (Drawn)

Chelsea played Stoke city (Won)

Man City Drew with stoke city.

Man city beat Chelsea (10 men which chelsea could have won easily if not for anti-chelsea FA influence).

But all the same, I am not convince that Chelsea is better than Arsenal. Why?

Lampard is gonna play, Ramires will be redeployed back to the wing, Moses is gonna be benched, Mikel-Lampard mid-field will come back and that will be a disaster for Chelsea. They claimed lampard is fit. But Chelsea dont need Lampard anymore. Chelsea will loose with lmpard-Mikel.

If lampard Mikel played, Toress is on his own. This spoilt Chelsea war-lord will not allow himself to be bench and consequently crippling the mid-field.

If Chelsea Paraded a sincere line up free of politics, Arsenal will be beaten.

Sincere Line-up is:

Cecar - Cahil - Luiz - Ashley
Ramires-Mikel
Hazard Mata Moses/Oscar
Torres

This will be a close game. I am a chelsea fans, but i can't bet on any of the two.

May he not be able to play again

Hey man, Chelsea still get enough solid defenders. Cecar, Luiz, Cahill, Ivanovic, Ashley. Haters can go suck petrol from nozzle.

u are right,but how many Nigerian ICT professionals have been given the chance to prove what they can do?

Many Nigerian ICT professionals cram dumps and pass certifications. I have interviewed many Oracle certified ICT professionals. When I give them a real-world practical problem on production environment to solve, they flop. I ask them, how did you get this certification? They make up excuses. They studied materials and passed it.

The truth is: Technology is advancing in Nigeria. No more rooms shabby certifications. Companies really want your expertise and not paying you for certifications.
