Whatever gibberish you like, you can utter.. I'm not bothered.

You igbos are the least of my worries. I'm glad Yorubas are waking up to see the real enemies and traitors in our midst.

When your father from East becomes one of Governor, deputy governor or Speaker of Lagos House of assembly, then you can come and engage me.

mbonu ojike was the deputy mayor of Lagos in 1951

Igbos have started digging their own graves in South West.

Most Yorubas are fed up of them and we the elites are sounding it for them to go back home and develop their lands and region. Enough of the blame game, insults and attacks.

What is this obsession with everything Yoruba and Awo on their own land?

Didn't Ojukwu call him the best President Nigeria never had.

Well he was the best President any nation could wish for that Yoruba ever HAD.
a man who founded bigotry tribal hate even before Nigeria was born, is that one fit to be president?

False Information, I repeat nobody laid nothing for Burna. Tell them to go and lay foundation for Dammy Krane or Sean Tizzle grin cheesy grin

He worked hard to get here cheesy cheesy cheesy grin grin
as long as Nigerian music is concerned, those that came before burna laid the Nigerian music foundation he only built on it,

back then on every radio station, TV station, night clubs Barbers shops, the only music they played was American Hiphop, Jamaican reggae, makossa music, and some old highlife music,
there was nothing like afro Hiphop or anything new in Nigerian music , till young musicians like plantation Boyz , African China, p square, nigga raw danfo drivers the mo hit crew 9ice rugged man, da green sound Sultan etc changed the narrative,
where was burna boy from 1999 to 2010 when all these Nigerian musicians worked hard to put Nigerian music on the world map, ?
Nigerian music was recognized through them, that was when MTV had to create MTV base for African musicians, BET, Chanel O etc started playing Nigerian songs, Nigerian music dominated through them , American musicians started having concerts in Nigeria , burna boy was never during these period
burna boy wizkid davido tekno tiwa savage patoranking run Town etc are in the same category of the new musicians who built on the foundation that was already laid

there is nothing to debate on this

I see ugwuanyi allocating a local government to please the fulanis, I see indigens kick violently against it, I see Nnamdi kanu ordering a full scale attack on fulanis in the said land area, I see ugwuanyi using the police, army, air Force and navy on his own people to please the fulanis, I see crisis.....this I have seen.
even if that local government is his father's land, he will never make that mistake of allocating to Fulani, stop seeing things in igbo land, turn your eyes South West, the things you will see, will make your eyes bleed

Burna is the First and the only Nigerian in history to have a debut album chart on the Billboard in 2013.

By 2015, he became the first Nigerian to sign an international deal with Universal Music...

You are saying nonsense... Btw the feature with 2face and Wiz was in 2013 on his debut album.

Your problem is ignorance. Burna worked his way to the top from scratch. He was blackballed in Nigeria. Restricted from performing in the UK till 2016.

You don't know Jack about him. Nobody paved nothing for him ❗

You can't tell me about Burna ... Like to Party, Tonight were hits in the country.... All eyes on me is the biggest SA Naija collaboration and the most awarded in African history...


Fela has children copying his style, why are they not as big as Burna ??

It's the Wild West...you get what you work for...
Burna boy got no where with his original style of music, till he changed his style and started sampling fela, sunny ade, featuring Nigerian artist like 2face , wizkid, timaya etc that was when he became known in the industry


I still repeat my point Nigerian musicians who came before burna laid the foundation both home and abroad he only built on it, he only came at the right time after other musicians before him worked to get Nigerian music recognized internationally

He worked hard for it, I'm not disputing that fact, but fact still remains, he only built on the foundation that was laid by those who came before him
Nigerian musicians were already winning international awards before he came, to proof Nigerian music already gained international recognition, burna came from behind to win the biggest of them

Till he became famous and proud ?

Or till he was tired of the tears from people like you who say he is always sampling Fela ?

Now he has ditched Fela completely and you are pained huh

Nobody paved nothing for him... Go and pave for Sean Tizzle...

If e easy, everybody for de do am...
I'm not pained, there is nothing there to feel embittered about, I only pointed out that those who came before burna laid the Nigerian music foundation both home and abroad burna only built on it , and his style of music is still under the fela afro beat he hasn't ditched it completely like you said

go and listen to burna boys original style of music before he changed , songs like, ( all eyes on me) , (Like to party ) etc that was his original style , he was hanging out with South African artist and those songs got him no where till he switched afro beat

you need to see the mark on her hand made with hot knife but still won't stop stealing
why do they usually use hot knifes on their hands?

I remember back in my primary school days in Jos, our class teachers money was missing, everyone denied stealing the money till the whole class was about to be punished, they started beating us one by one, till one female teacher from the next class intervened , she looked round, and called out one little girl called Tope took her outside the class, about 5 minutes later she returned with Tope with the stolen money

she said tope is her neighbor's child, she has the problem of stealing, her parents did everything to make her stop but couldn't, she showed us scars of wounds inflicted on her with hot knifes and razor blades and tope was a very beautiful quiet girl, she lacked nothing in her house cause her parents weren't poor, our primary school was one of the most expensive private primary schools in that area, she lacked nothing

The same Burna who started music in pH in 2011.... How old are you ?

He didn't come in at the height, he elevated the industry with his albums ❗

Why can't those people lay the foundation for people like Danny Krane or Sean Tizzle ?

Burna worked his way here... Nobody did shit for him ❗
I still stand by my point, Nigerian musicians that came before him cleared the land laid the foundation and burna boy built on it, he didn't build his own foundation, even his style of music is influenced by fela's music, his ever first album had features from 2face , wizkid and a host of other Nigerian musicians, he used to give fela credit initially till he became famous and proud

He is the first mainstream act in history to get nominated or win a GRAMMY... He told y'all last year... Nobody paved shit for him ❗
the fact still remains those that came before him, already made Nigerian music popular in the Western world before he came, big names like 2face , Dbanj, sound Sultan, p square , etc laid the foundation, his music career is not up to 10 yrs, he only built on the already recognized Nigerian music , he is just too proud to say nice things about Nigerian music in general, he came into the game at the height of Nigerian music international recognition

There is NOT A SINGLE FELA sample on his Album that won a GRAMMY grin
burna boy didn't win the Grammy only on the account of this singular album remember he was nominated for Grammy previously on the other album and won other international awards in the past, that's not even the point the point is his style of music is heavily influenced by the great fela , and those that came before him, actually put Nigerian music on international recognition making it easy for musicians like him to be recognized quickly , he didn't lay the foundation from scratch
Celebrities › Re: 'Many Prayed That I Don't Win - Burnaboy Says He Won The Grammy On His Own by jimyjames(m): 5:32pm On Mar 21, 2021
truth is a lot of Nigerian musicians that came before Burna boy actually cleared the land laid the foundation and burna only built on it,

he samples Fela's beats and songs a lot, I will say if fela's kids had worked as hard as Bob Marley's kids worked to fellow their fathers footsteps, they could have won multiple Grammys by now just like Bob Marley's kids

burna boys mom and grand father who both worked with fela contributed a lot to burna boys success

Lol.

Frederick Forsythe paid by Ojukwu as his international propagandist, while Chinua Achebe was the local chief propagandist in charge of spewing lies through Radio Biafra.

You assume I haven't read books on the coup and the civil war. You are mistaken.
nothing like ojukwu paying Forsyth Rather Forsyth resigned from his well paying job as a British journalist to report an unbiased account of what was really happening in biafra , cause BBC was reporting in favour of Nigeria, denying food blockade, denying asaba massacre, framing igbos of forcing minorities into biafra etc , how much was ojukwu paying Forsyth when he lacked money to buy weapons and food?



how about adewale's book title why we struck? he was one of the coup plotters is he igbo? did he say they planned an igbo agenda coup in his book?

there are many books but I will recommend one for you written by Frederick Forsyth one of the British journalist who covered everything about the coup and biafra, in his book The Biafran story

you have nothing to counter the true historic account I just gave about the coup and the aftermath


the reason why the biafran civil war history was never taught in school, is to keep people like you in the dark, so you could wake up one morning and write a false history

go and read books about biafra, stop depending on false Wikipedia articles

I'm sure you guys always think you are the only ones who remember history.

When the Sardauna was butchered by his mentee, an Igbo man and other Igbos and the Igbo traders in the North foolishly came to the streets jubilating, I guess that must have looked real good to you guys.

The massacre in the North was equally followed by a massacre in the east where innocent Northerners who had settled in the east and south were killed along with their wives and children. Their corpses were seen floating along the Niger river.

Your victim card has been overplayed bro.

Only someone who doesn't know the facts can fall for that, "oh we are marginalized", "oh we are discriminated against", "oh everyone hate us" symphony of the Igbos.
false history,
nzeogwu led a group of soldiers from the army college in Kaduna to the sarduana's house all those soldiers with him that day were northern soldiers from core north and middle belt, if it was an igbo Agenda why did the northerners follow nzeogwu to kill sarduana?

learn your history well the whole Nigeria Jubilated especially the northerners, Lt col Kastina appeared on multiple live radio broadcast with nzeogwu addressing the nation about the coup and gave nzeogwu his support it was after some media propagandist bigots from South West started tagging it and igbo agenda coup that turned it negative against the igbo, forgetting that northerners middle belt and South West was part of that coup and it was even a failed coup stopped by an igbo ironsi


there was no massacre in the East the northerners were sent home under police escort ojukwu made sure of that, even when the igbos stopped the train that was taken northerners home they couldn't do them any harm cause they were protected under police escort, bodies floating on niger river were all igbos killed and dumped in the river all the way from river Benue down to niger river


learn your history
