I am also a yoruba man,and I have no issue with igbo people.
Except the ones on Nairaland,they are the most tribalistic set of people I know.
Anytime I show their senseless comments to my igbo friends,they keep telling me to ignore their stupidity.
Sometimes I feel like cautioning a yoruba man or hausa anytime they act stupid(tribalistic) ,but I just let them be cause majority of this people are very ungrateful.(developers).
They are worse

wow, surprised to learn you've thought about cautioning Yoruba or Hausa guys anytime they act stupid, when you've just displayed same attitude here

Nice one bro, same answer to every tribal bigot

Arrewa:
Go and write this down...

This is another terror group eminating from the East.

It's a pity that these people still see this man as Hero.

Last week in Abakiliki 6 people were brutally killed by members of Ipob for allegedly insubordination to the ipob Authorities.

That last two weeks Friday 3 people were killed in Adaziani, in Anambra state by ipob members for a crime no one knows.

Yet I didn't see any of these news published on our conventional media.

The Easterners don't know what they're getting themselves into.

This is exactly how Bokoharam started with the full support of their own people thinking that they're freedom fighters.

Nnamdi kanu is now administrating soldiers in his region which we all know would be well armed.

So Many of you are too blind to see that the government is about to use this guy to deal with your region.

Goodluck to the East.

Totally agree with you on this, I desire Biafra, but not on the terms of Nnamdi kanu led IPOB, i desire a Biafra within a restructured Nigeria. This group formed by NK will eventually be an albatross to the east . Playing politics with sensitive issues is what led to the crisis in the northeast.

Ttalk:
Stay on topic and stop being personal and humbly accept your mistake, take correction and move on rather than result in subtle jab.

Falana in 2020 stated clearly that Nass can summon the President so also Fashola a SAN. Are you saying both of them are wrong?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqbtrxpUf0U

The issue here is that a highly respected senior advocate will come on national tv and make glaringly quite contradictory statements about the same issue ,the height of deceit if you ask me . Guy, you should be calling out falana on this and not trying to say his latest statement is correct

Arrewa:
Hypocrites!!

But they're free to call A northerner onye ugwu, call a Yoruba man afonjaa or ndi Ofe mmanu!

People that are filled with hatred and bitterness!!

That's how they once attacked Teni for calling Erica omo igbo.

These people can't take 5% of what they're dishing out to other tribes on daily basis.

seems you take any opportunity you see to take a swipe at igbos, To the best of my knowledge most tribes in this country have a "derogatory"term, they use when referring to other tribes, it's not limited to igbos. It's not igbos that are calling out teni on this , but everyone that desires a good feature for the next generation of nigerians

Arrewa:
Good for him!

As for Umahi...

Umahi is eyeing presidency!

That same bigot that asked herdsmen to be carrying id card in ebonyi.

No Easterner would ever rule this country!

Hatred ruins in their blood...

Peter Obi is the main reason Atiku failed.

The east picked a fight with the wrong side!

The jallohs would always win!

How I wish PDP go give them the opportunity to contest against any tribe in Nigeria.

That's when they'll really know that the north can Reciprocate in kind!

Totally agree with you that no easterner will ever rule this country going by the dynamics of power in this country, however the country you seem so proud of is heading towards disintergration, you can deny all you like, that's the truth, meanwhile hold on to your presidency

*Igbo denial by Igbos*

Sad that the issue of Igbo denial by Igbos has been trending on social media in the past two weeks. I am a very proud Igbo man, I do not see any reason whatsoever to want anyone who denies Igbo for whatever reason even though they bear Igbo names, speak Igbo language and dress Igbo to discuss the issue with me.

I am Igbo, I am a workaholic, I am progressive, I am an achiever, I develop both my Homeland and other people's homes, I create wealth from nothing, I manage and grow wealth to the amazement of my neighbors, I raise my children to be at the top of the very best around the world.

I am Igbo my villages and towns I develop with my wealth, I am Igbo, my daughters and sons are far better taken care of and better looking than that of neighbors, I am Igbo I break the glass ceiling in every aspect of human endeavor more than any tribe in Nigeria.

I am Igbo without stealing from public coffers, with the policy of suppression, victmization, deprivation, exclusion, denial of my rights all these stacked against me, I still live better quality life, my children get better education, my wife is better taken care of, she is more beautiful, I live in better homes in every city in Nigeria, I own properties in Maitama, Asokoro, Ikoyi, Banana Island, Victoria Island, Lekki Phase one,etc.

I am Igbo I own the best and biggest transport companies, the best and biggest airlines, I am the biggest importers, I am the manufacturers of everything from edibles, bikes, car parts and vehicles. I own Aba, Owerri, Nnewi, Enugu, Abakaliki, Awka, Onitsha, Umuahia etc all beautiful Cities adorned with eye popping mansions. I am Igbo I have eliminated mud houses, thatched and corugated iron roofing in all my cities, towns and villages, I am Igbo if I don't agree to live in your state you do not enjoy my benevolence, my developmental prowess, your economy depends only on hand outs from Abuja, unlike smart Lagos who welcomed me with open arms after the fratricidal civil war refused to implement the abadoned properties policy and now I am helping to make it a mega city, the sixth largest economy among African countries even though it is not a country.

I am a proud Igbo man I will always prevail because survival, wealth creation, is inbuilt in me, I take your swamp and turn it into paradise.
I have my shortcoming as human but my positive side is far more than the negative. I am not a victim, I am individually richer than my neighbors, I do not want to be born any other tribe, I will remain Igbo now and the life to come.

You are confused about me, you do not know whether to love me or hate me. But 100% you secretly admire me and desperately want to be me, you have a potpourri of emotions about me, you loath me, you love me, you fear me, you envy me, you admire me, you deny me, you want to suppress me but you secretly wish to be me.

I do not want you to identify with me if you don't want to. I do not see any reason for this conversation, I don't want to try to convince anyone who is denying he is from my great tribe because I prefer you dey your dey and I dey my dey. What will an Ikwere, Ijaw, Efik etc do for me that I have not done for myself?

If Nyesom Wike is threatened by IPOB he should take care of the issue as a governor. If he refers to the people he had issues with as Igbo and they are Igbo, what is the hullabaloo? The man says he is not Igbo, why should I want him to be? What extra value will he and his Ikwere people add to my wellbeing? *Absolutely nothing*

Was he not the one who accepted and divided my peoperties?
What did he do with it, is he better than me now, is his City of Port Harcourt not full of old dilapidated houses with corrugated iron roofs, was the city not at par if not better than Lagos before the civil war? What is the comparison between it and Lagos now?

Abeg make all peripheral tribes park well, I don't give a flying f**k about them so should every real Igbo.
I am Igbo, I am Southeast, I am the greatest!
An Ikwere man should be begging me to accept him as Igbo. What does he have, fossil oil that will be useless in less than 4 decades from now?
Well I have oil in my Southeast Igbo land, Imo, Abia and Anambra have.
My biggest resource is human capacity, you definitely can't beat that.
Copied!

Bros, tanx for these well articulated profile of the Igbo man, we are who we are , and I am so proud of it, nwanne jide Ka iji

Kestolove:
All this igbos dat move to the north in the 70s..

my guess is, you think you are funny, try again sis

chrisblack:
that's not true. The issue with the Russian vacancine is that proper standard as regards clinicay trials were not properly followed.it was rushed in other for them to claim first. This is a fact even the WHO.is worried about.please check the timeline. The issue and fear is over the next phase of the virus evolution would the so called vaccine help or further worsen the situation we don't know .there are no proper verifiable data as regards the Russian claim. They skipped various stages of trials ,which are very important ones.My point is Africans should be very careful in jumping on these claim.

Totally concur, considering the magnitude of this global challenge posed by CORVID 19, safety and proven efficacy should come first and not some cheap political first. The Russian vaccine clinical trial was not extensive enough and the demographic spread was limited, even China that had a head start over everyone are still doing their trials with each phase data and result published and peer reviewed

[quote author= post=92633587]Seconded!

SOUTH EAST: IS IT NOT TOO LATE?

I have read the recent transmissions by Senator Bukola Saraki directed at my Igbo tribe. I have deliberately kept mum on this as I had earlier resolved to speak less on Igbos as regards the 2019 Elections and 2023 Presidency having said quite a bit. 

However seeing as some of my brethren have swallowed the cheap bait, I will chip this in just to keep the reality before us, at least for posterity sake. Truth is bitter but it's still the best medicine. 

My people say; 'He who does not remember where the rain started beating him, will not remember where it stopped'. 

REWIND TO 2014. 
A new National Party was being conceived. Political Parties, political players and Regions were being wooed to the new alliance. 

'We' Igbos (read South East) vehemently refused to touch it even with a long pole. We packaged, sold to ourselves and bought the baseless propaganda that it was an Islamic alliance that would birth an "Islamic" and "Hausa" Party. Simply because those our brethren heavily invested in the PDP at the time were afraid of losing their vested selfish interests.
Till today I'm still trying to fathom the basis for that wicked and twisted deceit especially as many of those Igbo elites who sold that dummy have since ported to the same APC.

We failed to even identify with that new Alliance. Hence the Party, APC was birthed without any remarkable input from us or presence. The few amongst us who aligned were called all kinds of names and abused to high heavens by us even when they were proven right afterall.

Thus the few Igbos who were part of it were at best fringe players as they didn't have the required clout to make serious demands and do the necessary political wheeling and dealing required in Politics to strike the hard bargains since politics is all about interests and numbers. They were even suspect, so much so that it was only their personal political sagacity that gave them whatever they got.

That Party went on to win the Presidential Election which in truth, most of us never believed it could or would, because of our half baked permutations and poor understanding of Nigerian politics. But it did. 

Curiously we turned up at the fore front of telling this same Party how it should share it's 'spoils of war'. We became hypocritical moral champions with an over bloated sense of entitlement. Who does that, in all political reality and practicality? But we did, even while vehemently and vociferously still refusing to shift our position, style and rhethoric.

We dug in. Supported every bad thing and person against the Party, the elected President and the Administration while denying any and every good done to and for our Region.

Fast forward to where we are today. Almost four years after the 2015 misadventure, we have stayed put at 2015, refusing to move forward, refusing to shift grounds, refusing to play pragmatic politics, telling ourselves the same lies we cooked and bought in 2015 and some more. 

Now after election, we have started again saying "APC cannot give Presidency to Igbos in 2023". "Buhari cannot hand over to an Igbo man because Buhari hates Igbos". "APC is deceiving you", bla bla bla.

Of course. We will believe Saraki, who has only but a fanthom dream of becoming President and whose only known record is selfishness but we can't believe Buhari who's already President and who has a record of voluntarily picking two great Igbo sons as running mates in the past? Chukwu aju.

It is interesting and vital to note here that the PDP which many of us still proudly support and adore was in power for 16 solid years and in those years there were 4 Presidential Inaugurations and on none of those was an Igbo man found worthy by the PDP of even Vice Presidency and we are still bold to say it is the APC that has not even finished one tenure that doesn't want to give power to Igbos. Odi nma. 

NOW; Seriously, let's be sincere. As things stand today politically, why would the APC even hand power to us Igbos in 2023? 
On what grounds? 
On what records?
On what politics?
Is power given to anyone? 
Is it an appeasement or a gift? 

The APC is a political party. The main focus of a political Party is to hold power and keep it to enable it deliver on its agenda. So if the APC reads that the SE does not want the Presidency or does not have the capacity to help them win and keep power, they will stick with the regions that can and work with individuals who are interested. 

Make no mistake, I have always said, I do not blame us Igbos for the decision majority of us took in 2015. It's our right. But continuing to pretend that it was other regions, Buhari or the APC that made us do what we did then or remain where we are today is purely self deceit and I refuse to play that ostrich game. 

As far back as 2014, I and many others made that argument that Igbo Presidency was very feasible in 2023, ONLY under under the APC, ONLY IF we did a couple of things right politically. I personally continued to speak loudly on that even after the 2015 elections until when I realized that we were not ready to play the politics that was required and now I dare say it may be too late. Or is it not? Time will tell.

For now, we can continue to tell ourselves that we cannot hold the Presidency of Nigeria. We heard and read many of our brethren go from PDP to Biafra/seccesion (read IPOB) to Referendum to "Igbos do not need Presidency but Restructuring" etc forgetting that all that didn't lie squarely with us alone. We think other regions are not reading our body language?

We really don't care what Saraki writes or says because they've all come to realize that it's very easy to play us like a flute. So like Saraki, like Fani Kayode, like Fayose, like Atiku, even Jonah Jang of all people, they keep playing us.

We have learnt not to bother ourself anymore to avoid unnecessary arguements with nonentities
As some of us have said, it's good governance we want, even if only one village will be producing the Presidents. So be it..

Ka Chineke mezie okwu.

J.I


Only a sensible person like you can ever see sense in this.
Glad to see we still have intelligent people with a sound mind like you around.
God bless you.
God bless Nigeria.[/quote]well articulated views, however the reality of present day Nigeria and of the foreseeable future is that Igbo presidency will not be of much benefit to the Igbo nation, beyond the very limited psychological satisfaction of finally having a president of Igbo extraction. The Igbo nation will thrive better in a restructured Nigeria irrespective of where the president comes from. THAT IS THE TRUTH. TRUTH WILL ALWAYS TRIUMPH AND TRUTH IS OUR STRUGGLE. KEEP YOUR PRESIDENCY

Not entirely correct with regards to Arsenal's point tally, considering that VAR admitted that sokratis injury time goal against crystal palace should not have been disallowed

Marry the attractive secretary, give am belle sharp sharp, then travel overseas and cohabite with the ugly one and enjoy some dollars/ pounds/euros

tesppidd:
Take it from me;

In our current Democratic structure and dispensation, it is practically impossible for any Nigerian President to go against their appointees and croonies.

Lol..

Imagine Buhari using the EFCC to go against Tinubu, Amaechi, El Rufai, Malami, Magu, Akpabio, Sylva, Wike, Oshiomole and hundreds of others.

And perhaps half of the Senate.. .

And half of the judiciary.....

(We all know how much corrupt elements we have in these places)

Now tell me sincerely; Will Buhari survive another 6 months on seat?
(It's a goddammn democracy not an autocracy)

What you guys ask of Buhari is practically IMPOSSIBLE.

90 percent of the politicians with any form of electoral value have been involved in one act of corruption or another.
The few Nigerians who could be "clean" have got little or no electoral value and they cannot win an election for Mr President.


Bro this is the sad fact in our country.

If Buhari has to go against his appointees and croonies he'd have to go against 90 percent of them.
They shall fight back! And He will not be President.

The only way that Buhari or any President can fight this fight the way you guys want is by becoming a military head of state all over again.

No President can emerge in the Nigeria of today without 70 percent of these corrupt elements on your side.

Of course they'll fight back, but Buhari will be assured of the support of majority of Nigerians, including those from the eastside. Most Nigerians are yearning for good leadership irrespective of it's primordial source.The so called electoral value of these corrupt elements, I can assure you will be meaningless when confronted with the mass movement in support of good leadership

Saying Nigerian doctors are bad is an understatement, they are murderers in White Jackets

my guess is that right now ,they are quite busy murdering lots of unfortunate CORVID 19 victims in various isolation centers. Tanx for blowing the whistle on them

HoliMaree:
Nigerian Doctors are the most useless set of doctors I've ever seen in my life. They are despicable. I find them egoistical, proud and unrefined. They lack empathy, they are unprofessional and they don't know their job. I wish they will all be sacked and we can have foreigners doing their job until we get it right.

seems you've got beef with Nigerian doctors, I believe you've been seeing foreign doctors the few times you were probably sick, since all of them are bad

The ones putting their life and that if their loved one's in Lagos and other parts of the country are from the moon abi, your post lacks objectivity and smacks of sentiment

XANDERBOY85:
My sentiments too!

Greedy and arrogant Nigerian doctors think every day would be Christmas when they would be taking advantage of poor, vulnerable individuals! Now they've been called upon to live up to their hypocratic oath more than ever before, they've all scaled the back fence and gone AWOL!

[quoteT author=Witcher post=87351920]"The choice before Nigerians in the coming elections is simple: A choice between going forward or going backwards; between the new ways and old ways and old ways; between freedom and repression; between a record of visible achievements and beneficial reforms - and desperate power- seekers with empty promise. "

Goodluck Jonathan, 19th February, 2015.

That's how GEJ lied to us in 2015, now the result is opposite we have a perfect president. Who literally make Nigeria great in all ways. With perfect administration working like a fine-tune machine.

Very useless and senseless perceptions, if it could be the case what happened when Jonathan was trying to arrest Sunusi but Kwankwaso being Alfa and omega led him became a king Does Jonathan haven’t any privileges to stop him from being a king as a number one in Nigeria? why is it that Kwankwaso is becoming clueless and trying to instal hate for Buhari to the great people of Kano? Only in Nigeria that a red-handed criminal would escape all trials an later on he will persecute the innocent one, only in Nigeria that you will come across a matured fourty years plus, in support of that Same criminals, who are the source of their hardship and sufferness. Only in Nigeria that you would had that Police are not control by the state governors, I wonder who's permission did the police used to Arrest Emir, sunusi, maybe they are from the other planet.

Speak for yourself. You are a liar. America ''destroyed the prosperity and happinnes of Persia'' by its deposition of the elected Iranian leader in the 1970s which led to the Iranian revolution and the rise of the Ayatollahs.
