IPOB WAS BIRTHED TO TW.AT THAT AGENDA.

U SEE THE WAY, OUR LEADER SINGLE OUT FULANI CONSISTENTLY WITHOUT MISSING WORDS.

IPOB is nothing but a distraction to my dream!! Nnamdi Kanu is misleading you...you are probably smarter than him ,yet you let him play with your mind.

Many MPD patients on pan-Igbo thread...Lol

Pursue your goal but stop lumping everyone together.


Let me this point define a state for you based on Nigeria settings and in relation to the 36 states we have..


A state is a group of people living in a particular geographically area, with organised system of government, with boundaries nationally recognised and shares common culture and interest within themselves devoid of external aggression, influence and eroding of her values


This all what we are saying not all these your long sermon.

It kinda reveals how paranoid and helpless some of these guys can be....the same people who are calling me Yoruba have forgotten some very profound Igbo adage like ekesia na ama, ebulu naa n'obi, esi na unor dili mama, adili puta iloh. It's based of these philosophy that I am pushing the OMANBALA reemergence.

WAT THE FULANI DID TO HAUSA AND IN SW TO YORUBA.


THEY ARE DOING TODAY IN NORTHEAST THAT IS PREDOMINANTLY CHRISTIAN, WITH THE AIM OF PUSHING IT SOUTH EAST, SOUTHSOUTH, EDO AND ONDO, AFTER THEY ARE DONE THERE.


WAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?


LIKE I SAID, FULANI IS NOT LEAVING PRESIDENCY IN 2023.

Let's assume the Fulani have a hidden agenda to islamize Nigeria, what do you think your lamentation will do about it ?

It is happening already, these are Americans at the last Obi of Onitsha ofala festival in Onitsha

Nnaa, Oliaku mulu ejima nwoke ibuo !

Black America travel to Asia in good numbers to see their traditions but nobody comes to Anambra because our leaders are ffucking blind , visionless and lazy

BeijinDossier:
It is happening already, these are Americans at the last Obi of Onitsha ofala festival in Onitsha

I want the Ofala to be upgraded , the venue expanded and more foreigner troop in in large numbers and bring their hard currency. This gotta be bigger....I can confidently speak as a well travelled man that Anambra has some of the most beautiful culture on plqnet earth...you dont even know, nwanne. Ife onye anaro atu ya na anya.

Sometimes, the best way to catch a criminal is to act as one. To even suggest this has been going on for years. You guys can’t hide amongst us anymore. All of you will be exposed.
Anyday nairaland begins face features will be the day that all the imposters would be exposed.

You have not made any point. Who the hell are you to question my identity...I hail from a long lineage of Ozo men and Odu women. Nwokem, gbafuo !

Economic driven! I see. How much does the media team in P/H pay you guys for this onslaught?

You are shallow minded.

It is time to finally tear down this thread

Please , lets respect the sanity of this thread. Daalu , diokpa.

UdechiHD:
Lol! Wish you luck in your fight for ethnic status.

I am not fighting for division of south eastern Nigeria but an arrangement that must protect my hallowed culture. If you want a central airport in Ebonyi I will support you guys , but you must bury that Igbo Izugbe nonsense. And we , Ndi Anambra can sit on a table and decide what to adopt....We want our old lovely Anambra Igbo based on Onicha axis Igbo. This mixing up with everybody is our loss....because our culture is rich in wealth. I look forward to the day foreigners will troop to Anambra to see Ofala, Odunka , Iguaro etc

THE REASON Y BUHARI CAN BE PRESIDENT IS BECOS YORUBA AND HAUSA ARE BACKWARD POLITICALLY.


PARTICULARLY THE YORUBA AS THE HAUSA NOTED.


U KNOW WEN THEY FIGHT, THE TRUTH COMES OUT.


IN YORUBALAND, ONE MAN CAN CONTROL ALL THEIR DESTINY.


UNLIKE IGBO THAT EVERY MAN IS KING IN HIS HOME.


HAUSA, WE SAW HOW GOV CHALLENGED EMIR,, PRESIDENT CHALLENGE SULTAN, SO IT IS NOT ALL ONE SIDED AS YORUBA. NA SOLDIER GO SOLDIER COME.

Nwokem , leave Hausa and Yoruba alone. They are not the source of your problems. Your politicians , Governors , Senators , Rep. Members , Councillors etc. are the ones to hold responsible. They are the ones who take home 70% of your budget and send their children to expensive schools abroad. You are not stuppid and dont try to be....leave Yoruba and Hausa alone because they are also suffering through brainwashing and miseducation by their elites.

Osagyefo98:
Tell him.... every body no be fan but in matters of popularity Obi is very popular nationally

Even in thick forest of kaduna..They knows him...

Ask El-rufai.

Reminds me the day Obi put El-Rufai on house arrest the day he came to my father land to meddle into our politics. He learned a bitter lesson. Locked up until election was over...lol

BeijinDossier:
That clown uses different usernames. Some of his usernames are chef2000, ikpuchinonye1994, nnewisuper etc. He is a cursed fellow from Abia state

What kind of Nnewi man uses a moniker call "nnewisuper" .... Ndi Nnewi anaro eme onu....na anya ka I ga afu ya. If you said Onicha them I will believe because they are quite boisterous....Not Nnewi

okpalaAnambra:
Abum onye Nnewi... This is pan-igbo and Igbo comes first...Ngige is an irrelevant talkative...let him come and contest the guber let us see if he won't carry last

No living Nnewi man behaves like this...you wish

The pan Igbo agenda should be strictly economic driven , no more no less

UdechiHD:
Hope you're referring to yourself. Or did you mistake me for you? Please don't go there.
I'm consistent, unlike your likes who hide amongst us to cause far damage to our fabrics.
I'm only replying you, to amuse myself. How can I stoop low with an illiterate like you to talk politics.
Today IPOB, tomorrow Anambra, Next tomorrow APGA and next Peter Obi.
Where do you stand local man!

Who is "us" ? Igbo has no one identity...Most Enugu town eat eke Idenmili...now , how are we one. Stop this Igbo identity push and build your father's land because you won't win election in Anambra.

Abia1stboy:
Senator Orji uzo Kalu will make a very good presidential candidate

Abia has no political clout of any means!
The state is pathetic just like Enugu! Imo could have simply ended the same way if it want for Oshio-Baba who singlehandedly stopped Rochas stooge , Uche Nwosu.

okpalaAnambra:
Ogbonnaya Onu former governor of Abia state is the most qualified Igbo man in APC...that's why they made him south east APC leader and not that midget of Ngige who was kidnapped as a governor

Ogbonna Onu is probably the oldest member of APC but he is not as pragmatic as Ngige....Ngige is a very strong character. He was kidnapped as a governor but he got the last laugh and today Omanbalas honor him.

By the way , when are you gonna change the fake moniker....you are not from Anambra!

hammerU:
APC MAY STEAL ANAMBRA IN NEXT YEAR ELECTION.

I KEEP CHALLENGING THEM ON THIS FORUM TO DROP ANAMBRA BUT THE MOVE IS STILL ON.

FROM GBUHARI TO METAPHY. I CLASH DEM BUT DEM NO DEY HEAR.

THEN APC ADD SOLUDO TO BUHARI ECONOMIC TEAM.

Keeping in mind the structures of different political parties in Anambra APC will never win , not yet. Anambra is the most dynamic state in the federation. With Peter Obi , Osita Chidoka & Obinna Chidoka , Iyom Ekwunife , Stella Odua , the Obaze brothers etc Akpokuodike and Ijele are fighting to stay afloat. But, honestly , I am ok with either Chidoka or Soludo.

As for APGA , the party is destined for destruction...thanks to Obiano Vic Oye and Vic Umeh. The party crumbled the day Obi left....so sad. But Omanbala Renaissance Movement is in the incubation!

I know the chic...Colette Nwadike. Anambra chic.

ChinenyeN:
For someone who is supposedly an enlightened Igbo, you sure make foolish statements at times. So now tell me, is Ngwa not proper Igbo? You think statements like this would make me any more willing to adopt Igbo as my ethnic identity? This is the sort of nonsense you Igbo nationalists and Anambra-centrists love to do.

Yes. You’re correct. I do not see Ngwa as a subgroups of Igbo. It is a separate ethnic consciousness of its own for me. Why else is it that we as a group have yet to join World Igbo Congress? Why else is it that we as a group don't actively participate in "Igbo day"? Why else is it that we as a group are not active supporters of IPOB and even made our stance clear in 2016 and 2017? Why else did we Ngwa end up having bloody clashes with Biafran soldiers even while the war was ongoing? Even to this day, in as much as we would favor a disintegrated Nigeria, many of us, wonder if Biafra is the right choice for us. However, it has not affected our willingness to want to work toward the dismantling of the unfortunate state of Nigeria.

My reason for saying all of this is to bring reality to your doorstep. It was not long ago that people like you were treating Ngwa as some backwater, "not real Igbo" community. You think Ngwa people have forgotten, just because we've generally moved on? No. We haven’t. Now, people like you are here treating "Igbo" as a monolithic entity, and we are all supposed to just happily go along with you on that?

It doesn’t work that way. People like you want to play this Nigerian politics game as an all-or-nothing or zero-sum game. People like you want to create a forum, but silence anything that doesn't further your monolithic ideas and agenda, even if those who you silence are willing to work with you, despite the fact that they may not agree on everything.

This is the same mentality that helped destroy Biafra from the inside out the first time around. Yet, here you are ready to repeat history because of your cynicism. I've said it before and I'll say it again. The moment that Igbo people can learn that there can be a political forum without the mandate of a single, monolithic, umbrella ethnic identity, that is the moment when Igbo can start to smell actual success. The moment that people like you stop getting in the way of other groups’ agency, the sooner people can make actual rational decisions for themselves, rather than decisions based on cynicism and fear-mongering.

If people like you are left unchecked and consequently force us into another confrontation that WE WILL AGAIN LOSE, that is when you will learn that support for IPOB and Biafra is truly scant. People like you need to loosen your grips on “Igbo bu Igbo” and “Igbo bu Otu” so that people can come together of their own volition. Your one, cynical agenda does not define us all.

A forum ought to be established on something more than the wasted mantra of “Igbo Unity”. Left with you, you would rather that we all die together “maka anyị bụ ndị Igbo". It's not going to happen that way pal. If people do not feel that they have agency, then your efforts simply start and end with the bandwidth you consume posting on NL.

Word !

No forced unity...we must maintain our separate uniqueness. It is not stopping us from pursuing a common goal. Example is Igbo Izugbe- it's failure lies in the attempt to foist a manufactured Igbo on everyone.

fairfora:
CBN Governor is an edo man. Edo is SS and not SE. Which school did you attend? Olodo

Emefiele is from Ika Delta state. Secondly, he is not Edoid , rather Igboid. Not saying he is Igbo but his ethnic group are categorized as Igboid. Dr. Obiora is pure Delta Igbo....No Igbo borrows the name Obiora...an authentic Anambra name.

Enugu has nothing interesting to discuss. The people are content and there is no presence of opposition. I hate Enugu politics and the attitudes of the indigenous people towards development.

Gregorian Knight!

Obi1kenobi:
There are few things that display the intellectual bankruptcy and the Yoruba obsession that people like you do than calling anyone whose views are different from your own "Yoruba man pretending to be Igbo". Hence, you abandon the merits of substantive debate and start shouting "Yoruba" upandan. It shows how much you're consumed and obsessed with Yorubas and how Yorubas live rent-free in your empty head. I took a few minutes of my time to explain how the quest for autonomy in matters of local security require groups outside the core North to display solidarity for a common cause which is popular in all those localities, and how none of us alone can achieve this without getting other groups to unite behind that common cause, and all you came here to do is shout "Yoruba", like a witless clod.

Few points for you:
1) If you have "alternate monikers", don't project you stupidity on other people. This is my only moniker on Nairaland and I have no time or inclination, neither am I childish enough to troll people with different monikers.
2) I'm not Yoruba. Pazienza who I responded to knows who I am and has even communicated with my IPOB-supporting sister before, and a couple of people here know my real social media handles.
3) Being Yoruba would not have invalidated my point which is that to get out of the control of a national security apparatus controlled by the North (to everyone's detriment), other groups must unite behind a common cause to overthrow this hegemony. This doesn't mean they must unite on other issues and doesn't mean we're all friends. But on issues of local security which is of vital interest, there must be solidarity against the diktats of the North.

If none of these make sense to you, bring your contrary arguments here and we can discuss like civilized people. Or you can continue to chant "Yoruba" like a deranged nincompoop, and continue to let Yorubas hunt you in your dreams. Either way, if you

have nothing substantive to add beyond shouting "Yoruba", kindly go fucck yourself and stay out of my mentions. I don't care to humor stupidity.

This post remind me the day Pazienza suggested I was one of those children born by Hausa children during the Biafran war....very sickening for such a man to stoop so poorly and trashy. This behavior surfaces in most South Eastern born Igbos.

I heard Erediuwa abi Akenzua went to Rivers state to claim his royal subjects...ekene ghaa nku aka obulu mkpali! He should constitute a Bini language committee to re- introduce Bini language to them.

Guys,who is the politics section moderator ? Cc. Ishilove wrote a post here and called us ill bred and primitive same with the Uhrobo guy who said the Igbo were politically ddumb but they never get banned but the moment Odenigbo Aroli replied them in kind using the same language they hammered him a ban lasting over a month. I know its that Yoruba moderator.
They cant stand it when we are winning debates...pathetic.

The author is unknown......,,

The problem with writing skewered history is that it equally misinforms its target: Kayode Esho was a great jurist, but Akunne Oputa was the "Socrates" of the Supreme court. Enahoro was a young editor, but Azikiwe made him that young editor with Osita Agwuna as his assistant, at his paper, the Southern Nigerian Defender in Ibadan, where my own father incidentally started as a rookie before shortly abandoning journalism for the stable berth of the civil service. The myth of Awolowo as building the first this and that does not match the documented economic history of the period. Between 1954 and 1964, Eastern Nigeria was described as "the fastest growing economy in the world," by the Harvard Review; faster than China, faster than Singapore, and all the so-called "Asian Tigers." Awolowo is often credited with "free education". But no one yet has pointed out any surviving school buildings of the period built by Awo. But all over the East there were quality schools built by the various communities using the Town Development Unions from 1954, and acessing the matching grants of the Eastern Nigeria Development Corporation. And this was the East with the poorest revenue resources of any of the regions. The Mbaise secondary school exists, the National High School Okigwe exists, the Ngwa High school exists, the Enyiogugu Grammar School exists, etc. These were solid schools built all over the East with matching goverment grants. But where are the buildings of the Modern schools in Western Nigeria? They do not exist. They were makeshift. The Catholic church forced the Azikiwe government from its scholarship program, but it is also on record, that the Eastern government was the only government in the world that invested 45% of its revenues in education. The East had the highest number of schools; the highest school enrollment; the broadest penetration of medical services; and the best modern road network in west Africa. Indeed if we look carefully, the only public hospitals and most of the schools still standing in the East today, at various stages of run down are the schools and hospitals built by Azikiwe/Okpara. Every division of the East had a Joint Hospital as part of the Eastern Medical services. So it is often claimed Awo built the first television station; the first sky scraper, and the first Sports stadium, the liberty stadium in Ibadan. Well, these are prestige or white elephant investments. First, the Eastern Outlook, the government paper of Eastern Nigeria was the first newspaper established by any government in Nigeria, and it was of such quality and impact that the literacy level of Easterners, and the depth of public information retailed by Outlook was without compare. This is besides the fact that Western Nigerian Broadcast Services, WNBS-TV founded in 1958 only preceded the ENBC-TV founded in 1959, by only seven months. But Outlook preceded Sketch by about 15 years. Now Azikiwe built the Onitsha Modern market, the first modern mall or trade emporium in West Africa. Onitsha was effectively Dubai before Dubai. People traveled all over Africa, from as far as the Congo and Sudan and Egypt, to come and buy and trade in Onitsha. The economic impact of this was humonguos. So, give me the vast Onitsha modern market over Cocoa House in Ibadan. Azikiwe built the first Nigerian University at Nsukka with the first School of Law, the first School of Engineering, the first Business School; the first school of journalism, and the first school of music and performance, etc. By the time its first graduates took the Nigerian civil service exams in 1963, everybody began to raise the cry of "Igbo domination" starting with Akintola and Ayo Rosiji. Give me UNN over Liberty stadium. Azikiwe began the first modern library system in West Africa. The East had a system of city libraries starting with the very modern Ziks Library in Enugu. I Literally grew up in the Umuahia Divisional Library. These libraries were built all over the East. Schools in the East were built with libraries. Moreover the Eastern Nigerian Library Board had a sysem of rural amd mobile libraries. There was nothing like it anywhere else in Nigeria: kids having library cards and able to borrow or order books from the public library. Give me the the first library over the first TV. I do not by this mean that Awolowo did not make his contributions, but the regular skewering of the facts, and angling of contemporary national narratives often makes it seem these days like the greatest contributor to the founding of Nigeria and its development is Awolowo and the Yoruba, when the actual facts speak differently. The great Ibadan historian, Tekena Tamuno, was unambiguous in stating once at NIPPS, Jos, that "the Igbos are the makers of moderm Nigeria. When they abandoned their project, Nigeria collapsed." We must remind Nigerians, particularly Igbo children, daily of these fact, to achieve what Achebe called " a balance of stories." And that also means we must read beyond the surface of things. Babarinsa's Guardian essay is angled carefully to maintain a revisionist narrative. And that is to be always challenged, however innocent it might seem. Even today, most Yoruba think that Awolowo founded the Universities of Ibadan and Lagos. No one has reminded them that it took Azikiwe's pressures for a university for Nigeria, in his meeting with Arthur Richards in 1946, that led to the cobstitution of the Eliot commision and subsequently the founding of the University College, Ibadan. This fact is even clearly conveyed in Michael Crowder's eponymous book, The Story of Nigeria. Nsukka was Azikiwe's critique of what he felt to be the conceptual limitations of Ibadan. The University of Lagos was the result of NCNC's ideological contributions to the federal policy during the ill fated coalition government with the NPC. UNILAG was an NCNC project, shepherded by Aja Wachukwu as minister for education. Even the great UNILAG in her 50th anniversary failed to mention Prof Eni Njoku as the pioneer Vice Chancellor of the university, a man that layed the solid foundation of what made Unilag is today. These facts must be made known and put as forcefully accross as possible. Again, until the lion tells his own story, the story of the hunt will belong to the hunter. Kabissa!
