Igboid:I wish there had been a widespread use of more durable building materials back then. That way, those pyramids might still be standing till today...like the ones in Egypt built more than 3,000 years ago! You know the specific purpose of the Nsude pyramids? |
od501:You really think a Hope Uzodinma would agree to such? He may even pretend to go along with the plan, but be rest assured that he would be the spy....the mole relaying to Aso Rock all ESNs plans! |
Tumbulum:You see, a part of me dies every time i read of yet another needless loss of even one life of my kinsfolk, and is enough for me to give up on this cursed country Nigeria....how much more, the countless number of lives presently being wasted by cowardly and diseased desert rats! This is exactly what Mazi Kanu foresaw and set up ESN to combat when it became apparent that our appeasing and weakass ‘one Nigeria’ governors weren’t prepared to fulfill the primary function of their office, which is protection of lives and property of their citizens! Where was their useless ebubedike...abi na ebubeagu that they set up to counter ESN!? Had ESN been allowed to function and given the maximum support by the governors, there’s a good chance we wouldn’t be here AGAIN mourning the loss of our loved ones to Fulani herdsmen and terrorists! As you said, let ESN appear now to root out these vermin from our forests....that is when you will see the evil Nigerian army swing into action and start killing innocent Igbo youth in the name of ‘phighting criminality’! I have long since given up on this country! The same problems and issues our parents saw in the 50s and 60s are the very same challenges we’re still faced with today, yet some naive fools think we should still be a part of this wicked colonial creation! |
adamsmith914:Your thinking shows all that’s wrong with Nigeria! You wonder why the majority of Igbos are clamouring for freedom from the shackles of ‘one Nigeria’, because in your estimation Igbos are part of the trio ‘enjoying Nigeria the most’! Then you go on to cite an example of Buhari giving the ceremonial position of Chairman in two federal establishment to Igbo and Yoruba, while the top executive position, as usual, goes to a northern muslim! This to you is Igbos being part of ‘the number one benefactors of Nigeria’! |
They should go back and recheck their source/s! The kind industrial numbers of Nigerians’ (esp’ northerners) being slaughtered on a weekly basis....i doubt it has gotten to this level in the other 7 countries they claim are worse than Nigeria! I never knew a day would come when Somalia could thump their chest and claim to be more peaceful than Nigeria! Some people still don’t wanna admit there’s fire on the mountain and we should all run...run...run! In their minds, doing so would mean ‘validating’ IPOB and Mazi Kanu! ![]() |
Shiver99:You know what they used for fuel, and how they lit fires back then? |
Any wonder Obiano didn’t want to sit in the same room with him in the name of ‘south-east governors meeting’!? The same people responsible for the assassinations in Imo State are the very same people that murdered Dr Chike Akunyili! |
nku5: |
AntiBeEmCe:Hehehehehe ![]() |
Christane:He’s obviously descended of the returnee former slaves from Brazil, hence the name Gomez! Same thing with Fernandez....and, i think, the Williams of Sapa and Rotimi Williams fame! His people are mostly the ones that built those fanciful colonial buildings you see in central Lagos....some now either demolished by the unthinking Lagos gov’t or fallen into disrepair! |
seunaj:You understand exactly what's going on! Few weeks ago MTN and a new kid on the block MAFAB (that emerged out of nowhere) 'won' the bidding for the 5G licence in Nigeria! I immediately suspected that MAFAB was quickly formed by muslim core north oligarchs to equally become a player in the communications sector! You've got to fear these peoples ability to act as one in a bid to control the Nigerian political-economy! Hardly any of their big businesses grows organically, but are the end result of all these backroom and coded 'arrangements'! See how they suddenly found $2 billion and are laying pipes at breakneck speed to take gas from the south-east to the north. This is a loan all of us will pay back, and bear in mind that the industrial centres of Onitsha and Nnewi are yet to be hooked up to any gas supply! Similar thing is happening with the Maradi rail line that they're borrowing billions of dollars to construct while the south-east and south-south are still waiting for their own! Any sector they don't control or have a big player in....or one in which they see a southern competitor as a threat (Ibeto) they will use their control of Aso Rock to try to frustrate said competition out of contention; or....like with Air Peace, they will find a way to launch a publicly owned competition (Nigeria Air) to reduce the market leaders share of the market. They're good at engineering things codedly so you wouldn't suspect they're involved, and i suspect they had a hand in the saga that led to the removal of Kemi Adeosun and the one that led to the removal of Fowler....both replaced by northerners.....ditto Onnoghen. They don't have a 1st tier bank they control, and i suspect they have a hand in the aquisition of Union Bank by a much smaller new entrant in the finance sector. They control NNPC, NPA, Customs, Judiciary, Armed Forces, and any other body that's significant in Nigerias' political-economy! You can now understand why they just had to find a way to capture Mazi Kanu as he was a thorn in their flesh and capable of derailing their gravy- train! |
Hehehehehe ![]() Kinda reminds me of turkeys voting for Christmas! |
Chikeluba25:Any news on the cargo aspect of the airport? When will they start lifting heavy-duty international cargo in and out of the airport? |
ChimaAdeoye:All i see here is conjecture built on needless paranoia! Pray, why would IPOB single out Anambra to try and sabotage their interests....to what end!? Thing is, Anambra has an off-cycle gubernatorial election, and it just so happened that this last one coincided with the illegal rendition and torture of Mazi Kanu by the evil despots thugs! Short of declaring full-scale guerrilla war against the Fulani gov’t of Nigeria, peaceful and non-violent civil disobedience is the next best thing! There has to be some sort of pressure brought to bear on the Buhari gov’t, to let them know they just can’t get away with murder, abduction and riding roughshod over peoples fundamental human rights. Or what do you propose as an alternative? Remember IPOB equally called for a boycott of the 2019 elections as well, and i do remember they equally called that one off after strident calls were made against their position by many who argued the boycott wouldn’t be in the best interests of Alaigbo/south-east! Mazi Kanu has given up a lot (not least his parents and personal liberty) for this struggle, and the least he should expect is that his kinsfolk have his back and wouldn’t abandon him! Notice how there are vile impostors permanently camped on this forum (esp’ this thread) whose primary remit is to try to sow seeds of discord amongst us and drive the false narrative that Igbos ‘don’t like IPOB and Mazi Kanu, but love Buhari and ‘one Nigeria’’ instead! |
helinues:Talk about shifting the goal posts! No wahala....lemme indulge your stupidity a bit! Oya, can you provide links or clips to where Mazi Kanu publicly declared the ‘banning’ of the meaningless Nigerian national anthem and flag!? When we say you evil lot haven’t got a single legal or moral leg to stand on, we know exactly what we’re saying! |
helinues:Can you provide links or attach clips showing when and where Mazi Kanu declared the Republic of Biafra? |
helinues:Which of the two committed that one? |
paramakina202:You must think everyone is like you that has no principles beyond those that service your materialistic nature.....who stands for nothing....and whose conscience could easily be bought for a loaf of bread! |
helinues:You sure about that!? What’s Mazi Kanus’ offence, and what was Boros’ offence!? |
ChimaAdeoye:You’d do well to leave IPOB alone! They rescinded their call for the boycott of the just concluded Anambra elections, which shows they’re not as autocratic and unlistening as some of you are trying to portray them! This is a group that the despotic and murderous Buhari thugs kidnapped and illegally rendered from Kenya back to Nigeria....purportedly to ‘face justice’! We all are witnesses to how Buhari -that recently laughably claims to respect the rule of law- is flouting judges orders on respect for Mazi Kanus rights while in detention....as well as using delay tactics and outright illegality to delay commencement of the case proper! One would have thought they’re sure of their case against him and are eager to see him ‘convicted and sentenced’ for the trumped-up charges they have against him! Knowing all this....and seeing the way the Buhari junta have marginalised, cheated, humiliated and murdered Igbos in cold-blood, one would have hoped that you, a Igbo man (as you claim), would understand IPOBs position even if you don’t support their pronouncements! Even i didn’t support their initial call for the boycott of the Anambra elections, and i made my position clear at the time. But what you wouldn’t see me as a Igbo man do is try to mock or ridicule them on Nigerian social-media, knowing this dissension and division amongst us is exactly what Igbo-hating bigots are going for! |
grandstar:Will you zip it! Mazi Kanu brought awareness and appreciation for ones self-worth! It’s the evil Buhari gov’t that ‘brought sorrow to the south-east’! We wouldn’t be here today if we had a functioning, fair and listening gov’t! |
taham80:If you understand the mindset of the hegemonic core north.....esp’ how they see themselves in Nigeria in relation to the Igbos and other ethnicities, then you wouldn’t be surprised at his statement! I’m not! |
omenkaLives:Because gov’t still has a finger in the pie regarding electricity generation and distribution as well as NNPC! The unitary system of gov’t we presently operate is the cause! |
Buhari! |
paramakina202:Must be the buruntashi! There’s something to be said for the potency of that herbal drug! ![]() |
LLiKYekoba:Hehehehehe ![]() Had Igbos been the ones indigenous to a state like Kano....with all other variables remaining constant, they would have long declared the population of the state so tiny that you could fit them all in a phone-box! |
Did he mean to say Nigeriens....as in Niger Republic? I doubt a minister of FCT could blame influx of Nigerian citizens into the federal capital for him not being able to do his job properly. That’s passing the buck, when the buck is meant to stop at his table! |
OreMI22:For some funny reason, works seems to have slowed or stopped completely on the airport soon after the start of commercial flights. The escalators i saw weeks ago still haven't been installed....still no lifts installed....still no avio-bridges....still no fire-trucks....and still no landscaping within the airport premises and the approach road! |
DubaiLandLord:If you know little or nothing on a given issue, it’s best to keep quiet so you don’t expose your crass ignorance and stupidity! Just WTF do you mean by the Scottish were ‘only voting for parties that believe in the UK’ when the referendum was actually granted and the leading advocate of Scottish independence was and still is Scotlands’ First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon!? Dude, the referendum actually took place despite all the gibberish you’re spewing here! Buhari ‘doesn’t have the right to declare a referendum in Igboland’ as you put it, but he has ‘the right’ to ignore the overwhelming sentiments of a people and instead send down his Fulani army to murder them in cold-blood! Buhari is the head of gov’t....just like David Cameron was, yet the latter knew given the strong sentiments in Scotland at the time on the issue of independence, that a referendum was needed to know the definitive path to follow one way or the other! Just WTF is Buharis’ job then as Head of State....only to be a nepotistic, tribalistic despot!? This your Niger Delta sef....it’s so amorphous and indeterminate! Ok, Adaka Boro seceded with only Niger Delta....now can you tell us the ethnicities that made up the new Niger Delta Republic Boro founded....the place and time they all gave him their blessing.....and the capital of said new Republic!? I’m waiting! Tell me how Ojukwu ‘declared war on the new Niger Delta Republic’! Assuming such ‘war’ was declared, shouldn’t that have been the remit of Dodan Barracks!? You’re so deceptive and sneaky that you like picking parts of a larger picture/story in an attempt to sell a lie! I’ve said before the confederate south wanted to continue with slavery which the north had banned and objected to....hence the civil war! The issue here is much larger than one part preventing the other from seceding, but has to do with the larger issue of humanity and respect for the sanctity of life and freedoms! You, of all people as a black man, should appreciate this fact! You think if Ndigbo have the rights, freedoms, liberties and space to grow at our own pace while using our own human and natural resources like peoples and states in the US (and even Barcelona in Spain) enjoy today, that there would be anything like Mazi Kanu or IPOB!? You engage in wicked machinations against an entire ethnicity: blame them for the actions of a handful of idealistic soldiers more than half a century ago, despise them, murder them, connive to keep them away from ever being president, deny them control of their own resources....you do all this, yet wonder why there’s no peace in your blood-soaked country and why Igbos aren’t holding hands with you to sing ‘kumbaya mi Lord...kumbaya’!? |
Reality3080:All you see is the truth staring back at your bigoted self mate! So you’re YORUBA and you’re going on like a typical Igbo-hating Fulani! You sure you’re actually Yoruba, or you just want to deflect any incoming missiles towards the Yoruba!? ![]() @ The bolded: Would you say those are the overriding sentiments of most Yoruba towards the idea of Igbo presidency and the bid for secession!? Dunno....could be you’ve already conducted a straw poll amongst the Yoruba to come to this conclusion, but assuming without conceding, we actually go along with your premise that the Yoruba believe Ndigbo ‘ain’t getting Biafra or presidency anytime soon’, would it be safe to say the Yoruba who hold this position believe Igbos are effectively ‘slaves’ in Nigeria!? Honest answers please! ![]() |
DubaiLandLord:Dude, don't refer to the happenings in the United States as justification for the evil going on in Nigeria today! For starters, what occured in the US happened pre the modern era, before the civilised world had accepted the fundamental principles on which just societies are built...before respect for fundamental human rights were an accepted grundnorm in the relationship between state and citizen! The American civil war was fought principally over the issue of slavery and the south was the part that wanted to secede in order to protect their right to continue the wicked practise! How did Ojukwu unleash war on Adaka Boro and his men? Care to tell us exactly what Adaka Boros' intentions were.....the limit to the territory he wanted carved out of Nigeria....the ethnicities that made up this territory....the capital of the new country he hoped to form.....the time and place he sought and got permission to secede from the peoples/ethnicities that made up the territory he intended to carve out of Nigeria? Answers to these questions would help us situate the level of seriousness of said bid for secession and the level of acceptability it had in the territory Boro hoped to carve out of Nigeria! Now if you said Ironsis' gov't quashed the Boro bid for secession, i wouldn't argue with that! If the bid for Biafran secession was limited only to the social-media, care to tell us why you have murdered thousands of Igbo youth in cold-blood....have wrongly labelled IPOB a 'terrorist' organisation.....and have militarily occupied the south-east? The British gov't realised the Scottish bid for independence was a issue that resonated with a lot of Scots, so called for a referendum on the issue! Just like the IPOB/MASSOB bid for secession (that's been going on for decades and led to the murder of countless number of Igbos), the Scottish bid for independence was known and acknowledged by everyone without their head in the sand! Had Scotland been trying this in Nigeria, not only would the useless and evil Nigerian gov't pretend not to know what they were agitating about, but said Nigerian gov't would also tag the Scottish independence organisations as 'terrorists' and send the Fulani army of Nigeria charging into Scotland to look for innocent youths to mow down in cold-blood! ******* ******* ******* The American Civil War (April 12, 1861 – May 9, 1865) (also known by other names) was a civil war in the United States fought between the Union (states that remained loyal to the federal union, or "the North" and the Confederacy (states that voted to secede, or "the South" .[e] The central cause of the war was the status of slavery, especially the expansion of slavery into territories acquired as a result of the Louisiana Purchase and the Mexican–American War.[14] On the eve of the Civil War in 1860, four million of the 32 million Americans (~13%) were enslaved black people, almost all in the South.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Civil_War |
