Facebook Analyses a report critically before taking actions. Not like Nairaland that blocks only the Igbos and leave the Yorubas when there is a tribal e war

I've noticed that men tend to live relatively shorter lives than women in Africa
everywhere in the worl, and this is because the whole problem of the family is always on the man.
My advice to all men: If you want to live long, don't marry a liability.

those maps are drawn up by europeans and they are impartial. they send their agents to these villages and ask for the names of the people and they put it on the map. the map areas are not determined by the indigenous people, its europeans who drew up the map. so the fact that igbo was not included in that map at that time tells me they never existed as of that time. i believe that map is 400 or so years old. and yes as you said, most nigerian tribes were not included but these are small tribes. the igbo is the 3rd largest tribe for chrissakes. how do you leave out the 3rd biggest tribe when hausa and yoruba is on the map ? its impossible. only reason is they are recent migrants in the last 400 years. am telling you bro. reason the matter. the 3rd largest tribe not on the map ?

Arresting Nnamdi KANU will not solve the boiling issues in the east,infact it will worsen the present situation,neither will hate speeches nor name calling deter the eastern Igbo's from demanding their rights.
this statement coming from the old man is not surprising as he met with the coordinator of govt recently,the Nigerian govt is in dire need of solving the issues of Biafra agitations and they will go any length to achieve it.pa Clark is only trying to deceive the foolish govt, to prove that he is not in support .
he has advised them to arrest him,what are they waiting for?
Arrest Nnamdi KANU and you will see Biafra in your face.

i dont think requirements to be on a map is development though. a map is about geographical areas and the people in it irrespective of how developed they appear to be or not. thats all am saying bro

sukkot:
so am looking at this map of nigeria in the 1800s and it shows yoruba and hausa and nupe territories and there is no mention of igbo. the igbo territories belonged to Niger protectorate and coast. my question is are igbos really from nigeria ? I am starting to think they migrated from cameroon to that region in the late 1800s. so the question is if they are Cameroonians why do they want to form biafra in nigeria ? look at this map and tell me i am wrong

Oduduwa was from Benin not Arabia. Benin gave concept of Kingship to all of Southern Nigeria.

CAN THIS MAKE FRONT PAGE NOW AS IT'S A FACT? YOU SENT A FALSE, CONCOCTED NEWS EARLIER TO FRONT PAGE. MOD

ZZ22:
Honestly i dont know whats wrong with these ewedu people.

Do you think Igbos really give a Bleep about being Jews?

Out of jealousy and hatred you wish the story is not true and have been trying every means necessary just to debunk the fact so that when you sleep you will cowardly beat your chest and think your on same level with the Igbos.

Igbos are unique deal with it

Barrywilly:
Gov Obiano said it's all Igbo affairs and nobody should blame the fulanis. But I see this as a fallacy of hasty generalisation

pmc01:
Obviously, engaging our large population in exploring Nigeria's vast resources.

Solar is the way.but should be a gradual process.
In the near future it ll be the cheapest source.
The world is going green

What will you rather the idle poor man be doing? It's the failure of Government in engaging him that gives him the time and space to keep reproducing.
Look and countries like Japan and a few others where their citizens are so busy the government has to grant them incentives to get married.
The point still remains Nigeria's problems are not large population induced, they are borne out of leadership failure.

millionaireman:
They bribe Igbo in Lagos to call Igbo in the east jobless in order to divide Igbos over Biafra, the way they divide non Igbos in the SS from Igbo, all to allow the political status quo in Nigeria continue.

Which Igboman shall stay in Lagos and call fellow Igbos in the east jobless? Only a compromised - bribed - Igboman.

ofai:
KANU wasn't coming by his own volition. YOLICOM and other western agitators gave him the signal. He hasn't even dreamt of coming to Lagos.

As for the traders..... You are protecting your business we know, but don't call kanus followers in the East jobless. They have their own jobs. Are all igbos in Lagos gainfully employed? Why not refuse kanu's coming without castigating their fellow Igbos in the east?

I know the crop of igbos uttering this shameless jests. They think they are the only ones who can lead ndigbo. Such delusion.

Chief Chiemeka Ibeh of Alaba Amalgamated Traders Association, warned the IPOB leader to stay away from Lagos, urging him to leave Igbos in Lagos alone because his visit to the commercial nerve centre of the country it will create the impression that Igbos in Lagos are supporting Kanu and IPOB activities.

He should keep his Biafra in the East where our unemployed youths are following him all over the place, not knowing what they are dabbling into. Most of these youth do not understand what Biafra is about and what it has cost Igbo people.

pmc01:
He is imposing- "we must... "
If only our visionless leaders like Mr. Bruce knew the positive use our large population could be put to. We are not the largest population on land. There are several larger populations doing very well.
I still maintain creating jobs and producing babies are separate entities.

Akshow:
If people wanna smoke let them smoke. It's their health , their money and their life. Is it ur smoking? That's the problem with Nigeria. We leave the log in our own eyes and worry about the peck in someone else's eye.

pmc01:
Honestly, this is a feeble attempt at common sense.
Producing babies and creating jobs are separate entities. The last I checked, people are at liberty to live their lives as they deem fit, as long as it constitutes no harm to others.

Why impose a lifestyle pattern on them?
