PHIPEX:Thnaks for schooling him. Too much agbado and ewa may not be too good for the intellect. |
UpaIweka:Your comprehension ability is suspect if that is all you got from the Grok result. |
ObiPandora:Keep lying to yourself but no one is deceived. |
If you ever think that Igbophobia will ever end in Nigeria, think again. We will keep warning our people to be circumspect. The worst may yet to come as long as Igbo remains in this British contraption. Igbo must learn from the Armenians that success, too much success breeds envy. |
We all witnessed 8 years of Buhari's incompetence without mockery on his person by the northerners. But with just 2 years of trial and error, Tinubu's incompetence is already a thing of mockery to the northerners. Is it because they're aware there's nothing like the 'south' that they have already started giving him the Jonathan treatment? |
Armaggedon:Terrible lots. They the aggressor. Still them the whiners. Isn't God wonderful? People who could not hold peaceful election in the sixties still are the ones trying to create chaos today but the good news is that Igbo take their pettiness in stride. |
casualobserver:You're wrong. Even Grok mentioned that its result 'prioritizes convictions and major probes. Sources include EFCC, court judgments, and media reports'. Now being a governor in Nigeria is a powerful position. Nigeria being a corrupt country defers to people like those. For say, a court or EFCC to indict such personalities cannot be termed anecdotal. All you need to understand is look at Nigerian corrupt judges and how easy it is for the rich to buy them over to understand that despite its subjectivity, Grok is at least, 80% correct. What more, do you think these AI projects were just off-the-sleeve phenomena? AI is now better than humans in speed and analytical prowess in nearly, if not all fields. This doesn't even factor in social signals which Grok has access to. For instance, who would doubt that these guys are corrupt? You don't even need to have lived in the states they governed to be privy to that fact. Nigeria is such a crime scene that a banker friend once told me that if politicians work with just 10% of the money they have access to, that this country would have been in competition with Europe. |
chopnaira:Igbo are one. Nigerian politicians are incapable of dividing us as a people. |
Of what benefit is it to me if an Igbo from SE or even SS is president? The problem with most of you Nigerians is that your concept of progress and even nationhood differs a lot from the mind of an Igbo man. We Igbos want a functional country, not the cesspool of corruption and injustice Nigeria is. Here's how we reason: If Igbo presidency is someone like Wike (yes he's Igbo) or Okorocha, it still doesn't make sense for us as Igbo. In like manner, if Atiku Abubakar is the best you guys can promote for 2027 instead of Obi, people like us do not really see him as capable of anything different from Tinubu. In which case, it is like what you refer to as Otto Cycle: a nullity which means that you guys have no vision for a country that makes progress. This is why most of us believe that Igbo is better off in our own country. Nigeria has already wasted decades of Igbo existence with the clowns you guys refer as leaders just because they're from your tribes. Pray, of what benefit is Tinubu and his government to the average Yoruba man? Na my tribesman ba? That's classical African foolhardiness. Obi has become the political hope of the South-East and parts of the youth population nationwide.So you concede that only the Igbo (who you refer to as SE. Igbo 're actually in 13 states) and the youths of the country have good sense of judgment? The rest of you would rather choose incompetence for tribal and other reasons. |
DomPerignon:Mass murderers throughout history have had apologists whose occupation has been to deny the deaths of those murdered. In the case of the Igbos, it wasn’t any different. What’s obvious is that such deeds do not go unpunished. Even the Nazis, after murdering the Jews of Europe, ultimately faced the Great Judge—Jesus, the Son of God, who was also a Jew. Your denial reminds me of the Lekki Toll Gate and its aftermath. Keep denying... Holocaust deniers maintain that events did not take place as they were written, and that Jews have propagated the myth in order to advance Jewish interests. In other words, Holocaust denial is a form of antisemitism as much as it is a part of the genocidal process—to deny the deaths of those murdered acts as a double-dying, as it seeks to erase the victims from history. |
surgical:I like your analysis. However, Kwankwaso has several options—two, actually: he can either work with the coalition and remain relevant in the future, or align with Tinubu in the hope that Tinubu will make him president. You see, this is what Tinubu would likely promise him: Contest, weaken the coalition’s influence, and I’ll hand over to you. Kwankwaso, however, knows that people from that side are known for being two-faced and unreliable. So he finds himself caught between standing with the people or standing against them, knowing that the same fate that befell El-Rufai and Shettima could very well befall him too. |
Borrow2222:This is not a Yoruba or Southwest issue—it's a basic survival instinct for laid-back humans. These people feel threatened by Igbo industry and resilience, and Igbo pride often makes that threat feel more visible and direct. The reason the Southwest appears to be the most vocal at this moment is because they perceive the Igbo as an additional obstacle in their own quest to extract from Nigeria in the same way the North already has. As I said earlier, the Igbo concept of justice and equity is a threat to all of them—whether Northerner or Westerner. This is why all Igbos should strive for an Igbo-only country. Not even the southern minorities can stay with Igbos in one country. Why do you think Africa is the most backward continent? It's constituent tribes are mostly laid back people. Igbo being different is a threat to them. That’s the real problem. Even the crude oil money they’re stealing—they can’t extract or refine it themselves, not even in a hundred years, without the help of the white man. Even if you dashed them all the oil in Nigeria, they still wouldn’t know what to do with it in terms of making life meaningful for their people.

"The horror of the Holocaust is not that it deviated from human norms; the horror is that it didn't. What happened may happen again, to others not necessarily Jews, perpetrated by others, not necessarily Germans. We are all possible victims, possible perpetrators, possible bystanders." |
How can you be Igbo in Nigeria and feel at home—especially outside Igbo land? You buy land randomly and invest carelessly, then act surprised when you're victimized. I always tell Igbo people I meet outside Igbo land: even non-Igbos don’t truly have a country in Nigeria, let alone the Igbo—whom no other tribe wants to compete with. Here's the point: If you're investing outside Igbo land, make sure you have an equivalent investment secured at home. Today, you complain about being victimized by Westerners. By the next election cycle, you’ll be complaining about being victimized by Northerners. Yet, you never seem to learn. The truth is, the interest of these two regions in Nigeria is to drain it dry—and you're the only real obstacle to that. If you’re Igbo, understand this clearly: this country is not yours. Begin making strategic plans for an eventual exit. Do not place your major investments within Nigeria outside Igbo land. It’s not a complicated message. If Igbos start behaving like Jews, Indians, or even the Lebanese—by investing primarily in their homeland—the endless cycle of victimhood and targeting will begin to end. Being Igbo should mean being smart, strategic, and forward-thinking. No one is saying you shouldn’t build a good life or invest outside Igbo land. What we’re saying is simple: within Nigeria, only invest what you can afford to lose—especially outside your ancestral home. The signs are clear. |
Tinubu teamed up with the north to eject Joanthan. Now his friends scheme how to eject him. It wont be easy for him o, the rigging of 2027. |
Sometimes, too much success is dangerous. Even the Tutsis and Igbos learned the hard way. Although throughout the centuries Armenians had been considered the “loyal nation,” and had risen to economic and civic prominence in the most important of imperial urban centers and in the capital, with the rise of Turkish nationalism their situation was becoming increasingly intolerable and untenable. The first Armenian political parties established around this period sought to address the increasing vulnerability of the Armenian cultural life in the empire, seeking political and economic reforms that would alleviate the growing discrimination towards the Armenian minority. This growing Armenian political awareness on one hand, and their economic overachievement in the Sultan’s domain on the other, would contribute to the atmosphere of distrust between Turks and Armenians.It is the same human instinct all over the world responsible for genocides. Jealousy...greed and the like. |
T9ksy:I repeat tht 80% of sensible Nigerians back Peter Obi. Why do you think he won in urban areas even with your rigging? |
WizardOfNG:Unity beggy beggying at its best. Be on your own let others be Mr Lugard |
flokii:Even as a Nairaland zoom bee you made sense. Nigeria really has disunited Ndigbo. No wonder the country moves in circles and it hasn't been well with it. Imagine a country moving from Buhari to Tinubu. That's 10 years of waste already. |
blamingthedevil:On a serious note, a reasonable person should support this guy here?
|
I feel sad seeing posts like this. Nigeria really did a good job of splintering Ndigbo. So it's now a big deal for Igbo to be appointed in an Igbo state? What you all don't understand is that states were created in Nigeria because of Ndigbo. You people are playing into the hands of Igbophobes by supporting disunity among Igbo, the most maligned tribe in this country that should see one another as one. |

Where was Amaechi when they dashed Tinubu Peter Obi's votes in Rivers? |
Provision is better than kiosk . Headhunters, skulllarrsofHeads plus EatersofKings won't let the man rest in peace |
Happy belated birthdy to H E Peter Obi. The man sensible Nigerians are rooting for. |

When I was a child, I visited my village during a holiday and had my first experience with an unusual source electric shock—from a rather unexpected source. Where I come from, when people swear oaths before deities, they celebrate if they survive a full year afterward. Their continued life is seen as proof of innocence. One day, a kinsman and neighbor who had taken such an oath was celebrating his survival. I was lying on a metal-frame bed inside our family house, watching the festivities through the window. As part of the celebration, the man began firing cannons packed with gunpowder. Suddenly, one of the cannons exploded, and I felt a sharp electric shock run through my body. It had traveled through the metal frame of the bed I was holding. I immediately let go. How that was even possible, I still don’t understand. The second time I experienced a strange and unusual electric shock was on a rainy night. I was working on my laptop, which was charging through a generator outside on the balcony. There was no public power supply at the time. As lightning flashed and thunder roared, a sudden shock surged through the laptop and into me, followed by an explosion and some smoke. I jumped up, ran out, and quickly switched off the generator. Thankfully, the laptop wasn’t damaged—but the shock was very real. My third encounter with an unusual electric shock also involved that same generator—the small one popularly called "I-pass-my-neighbour." I had turned it off completely, but when I touched a metal part of it, I received a massive electric shock. From a generator that was switched off, o! I couldn’t believe it. The last unusual electric shock I experienced came from a charging phone. It was raining heavily, and I had the phone plugged in while using earphones. Despite having basic knowledge of electrical hazards, I was totally absent-minded about the risk at that moment. During the storm, I felt a sudden, powerful blow to my head—it was as if a giant fist had struck me. Immediately after, there was a loud clap of thunder. I quickly yanked the earphones out of my ears even before I heard the sound of thunder. Stunned, I had to reassure myself no one else was in the room since the blow was real. Apparently, the blow, not really shock coincided with the lightning that came just before the thunder. That experience made me truly aware of the risks associated with rains and storms and electrical devices. These days, I never touch my phone or go near the generator during rain. Have you ever had an unusual electric shock from an unexpected source?

This is just like being hired by the devil while you're employed by God. Prosecutors charged two Israeli citizens, a Bedouin teacher and an IDF soldier, with spying for Iran, the police and Shin Bet said in joint statements on Thursday in the latest of a string of cases of Tehran tempting Israelis into performing tasks for payment.https://www.timesofisrael.com/bedouin-teacher-idf-soldier-latest-to-be-charged-with-spying-for-iran/

In mid-1993, Hutu radicals launched their own radio channel, Radio Télévision Libre des Mille Collines (RTLM). The channel would be used to incite hatred towards Tutsi by using propaganda and racist ideology, such as the Hutu Ten Commandments. On April 6, 1994, when the President’s plane was shot down, killing both the Rwandan and Burundian presidents, the radical Hutu radio channel announced the deaths, urging Hutus to “go to work” and attack the Tutsi population. The genocide had begun.Have you heard of the term 'German Machine?' It was a pre WWI term which prepogrammed the German army to attack Russia in the event of a war in Europe. The Kaiser simply set in motion a mechanism to attack a country he has been programmed to hate. This term could be applied to what happened to the Tutsis in Rwanda, Not just because it was a German colony, but it was a doctrine adopted by European powers all over the world. What happened to the Tutsis nd by extension, the Igbos was an unstoppable mechanics planted by Germany, Belgium and Britain respectively. If a tribe is considered smart, it must not hold power. |
Sirianese:You don't believe it but the Europeans know it and practically hold the black man down with that knowledge. |
PDP is a party of fools. We realized that the moment they failed to expel Wike. What would Obi want in a party where Wike would be used by Tinubu to undermine him? If PDP has sensible people, they wouldn't have allowed Atiku share dollars for candidacy. But we all know how arrogant the party was. It should just be buried. |
