Deadlytruth:Ironsi and the military council may have slow or even 'sectional' in your perspective but what happened in the coup of Jan 1966 was never an igbo coup. That has been debunked and reclassified by those who seek to know the truth. When i mentioned October, i wasn't merely claiming. There is a classified document from the military council which i will look for in my free time that categorically stated that the execution was to take place in October. You are entitled to your prejudiced narrative. Only ethnic bigots will go down that path. 1 Like |

Okoyeebos:I would advice you to read non biased accounts and reasons for staging the 1966 coup by the coupist and non direct coupist then come back and correct your faulty reasoning. If after reading the OP's article and a number of unprejudiced accounts out there and you still give the coup an ethnic colouration then there is something fundamentally wrong with you and millions of Nigerians out there. There was no talk of any ethnic coup when the coupist laid down the reasons for staging a coup which was well received by Nigerians regardless of ethnic origin. The aggrieved Northern elites and the British media succeeded in giving it an ethnic undertone which escalated with the perceoved slow execution process and the promulgation of the unification decree Ironsi and the Nigerian military council was in the process of executing the coup plotters in October of the same year he was murdered in a counter coup by northern officers who wanted to avenge the death of their elites. The hostility between the North and the igbos existed between way before the coup,so the coup was a launch pad to massacre igbos. In addition,a good number of the coupist and minor participants were non igbos who supported and cheered Nzeogwu after the coup. It was never an Igbo coup to bring any igbo into power. The reasons for the coup are well specified. 1 Like |

Abia state is a legitimate part of Igboland is 10times better than some states in Nigeria and it doesn't need muderers,destruction and bloodshed to kickstart any development. You are a curse to the igbos that strive for the preservation of life. I'm ashamed to know that in this critical times of neo colonization and random masscre and pogroms committed by herdsmen around Nigeria, an igbo is somewhere advocating for a grazing colony in a part of Igboland because of some perceived leadership issue. You are under a curse,period! |

[quote author=PoolBuilder post=62053963] Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity. Martin Luther King, Jr. http://www.nigeriavillagesquare.com/obafemi-awolowo-archives/exclusive-chief-obafemi-awolowo-on-biafra-in-his-own-words.html TWENTY POUNDS POLICY That’s what I did, and the case of the money they said was not given back to them, you know during the war all the pounds were looted, they printed Biafran currency notes, which they circulated, at the close of the war some people wanted their Biafran notes to be exchanged for them. Of course I couldn’t do that, if I did that the whole country would be bankrupt. We didn’t know about Biafran notes and we didn’t know on what basis they have printed them, so we refused the Biafran note, but I laid down the principle that all those who had savings in the banks on the eve of the declaration of the Biafran war or Biafra, will get their money back if they could satisfy us that they had the savings there, or the money there. Unfortunately, all the banks’s books had been burnt, and many of the people who had savings there didn’t have their saving books or their last statement of account, so a panel had to be set up. !.On no occasion did awo state that people fleeing pogroms transferred or took their savings back home, a person fleeing killers has no time for such matters and the policy was predicated on the looted pounds in central bank branches,do individuals save money in Central bank branches? 2.In the sceond Bolded part , its either Awo was a dimwit or reveled in stupidity,"all the banks’s books had been burnt", All which banks, the banks in Lagos, Kano, Ibadan, Maiduguri, jos etc books were burnt, the savings of Igbo Soldiers, Policemen, railway workers,teachers etc An impossible statement, if Bank books could get burnt , how do expect people who passed through years of hell to produce passbooks or statements of account,unless someone has passed a tumbler of stupidity to you.

CBN REVISITED. “I write with reference to your letter (Ref – FRAW/AO/CB/11/71 of 8th October, 1971 to inform you that your client’s entitlement as a depositor was £20 ex gratia award authorized by the Federal Government” Signed by E. N. ISONG Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria As applied by the Supreme Court of Nigeria in the celebrated case of CHIEF J. J. ENWEOZOR V. CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA (1976)1 ALL NLR PAGE 252 AT PAGE 256. This letter, dated the 18th day of October, 1971, signed by E. N. ISONG, the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, addressed to Chief F. R. A. Williams, an eminent Nigerian Lawyer, is a reply to Chief F. R. A. Williams enquiry from the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria why his Client, Chief J. J. Enweozor, described as a Nigeria citizen ordinarily resident in Onitsha, who in response to the CBN’s directive “on the 7th of April, 1970, paid to your bank the sum of £26,659 (Twenty Six Thousand, Six Hundred and Fifty Nine pounds) as per receipt no ESOO5055 dated 7/4/70 in old Nigerian currency notes” is yet to be paid his money in the new currency. The shameful story is a stressed fact in Nigerian History. Yet it always compels repetition. The fact is that after Chief J. J. Enweozor and his Biafran folks, having been mercilessly massacred in all parts of Nigeria, particularly, the North, a savage and barbaric genocide unleashed on them, ‘shooting of everything that moves’, applied as a doctrine against them, starvation employed to annihilate the unborn and the children, Gowon, the Nigeria head of State, the architect of their woes, was so kind and so zealous in reconciling with, and rehabilitating them that he gratuitously offered them from the milk of his Gowon – Nigerian heart, a gratuitous £20 (Twenty) pounds in exchange of any amount whatsoever they had ever earned within the Nigeria context. Of course, neither Chief Enweozor nor his coun sel, Chief FRA Williams of blessed memory was impressed by this Nigerian-brand of benevolence. Consequently they sought remedy from the court, the supposed last hope for the common man. This is the final words on the subject matter. Till tomorrow,people will twist narratives and revise history to satisfy their animosity,bitterness and resentment of the Igbo people. |

Culture / Re: Highlighting Two Igbo Deities And Their Significance To Their Followers (Pics) by KemjikaEme: 6:28pm On Jan 08, 2018 |
Abagworo:Common sense should tell any good igbo scholar that Olisa is a variant word for Orisha most common amongst igbos located in close proximity to Benin and Yoruba. The concept of a Supreme Being known as Chineke, Ekekereuwa and Chukwu Okike has always existed amongst the Igbos. With the rise of Aro hegemony,an oracular shrine of Chukwu was built and served in various capacities including being used to deceive unsuspecting people who were then sold into slavery. Christianity only pushed the religious propaganda that Chineke or Chukwu as the only God that deserve human worship while succeeding to totally obliterate the existence,importance and worship of the lesser deities and spirits of Igboland. In other words, christian missionaries imposed the idea of Chineke/Chukwu/Olisa or whatever people call him as the one and only true God while other gods were treated as mere idols. That being said, the concept and belief in a supreme being such as Chineke , Olisa etc is as old as Igbo land. It never started in Aro. History revisionism is crazy! |

Movic1:It's imperative to note that the name 'IGBO' give a lot of people nightmares and that majority of people on nairaland are functional illiterates. The subject of the thread is the strife between Benin and Ijaw people in Edo state but i've seen a number of comments deliberately dragging Igbos into this mess for the purpose of ethnic baiting and bigotry when it clearly has nothing to do with them. Is it impossible to address immediate issues without making undue inferences to Igbo. I don't think Nigeria can ever be united and progressive with this sort of mentality. It's not difficult to see how black people will continue to be used as slaves when 'educated africans' only channel their education to ethnic bigotry. 3 Likes |
Politics / Re: ''history Will Not Be Kind To Obama!'' - Reno Omokri On Slavery In Libya by KemjikaEme: 9:11am On Nov 30, 2017 |
Obama or no Obama, these arabs are just looking for an opportunity to enslave black people. Arabs and related people were the first folks to enslave black Africans and it is obvious they will do it again if given the same opportunity. Obama might have ushered in chaos in Libya but that is not a good reason to enslave black people, the fact is that Libyans and North Africans see black Africans as subhumans. According to my research, slavery has been going on before 2017 and many of them held slaves in this modern era. It has little to do with Obama, it is the Arab perception of black Africans and the incompetent foolish leaders in Africa. 1 Like |

Exciton:Keep your anger and vulgarity because it is formed out of gross ignorance and inability to fully comprehend basic explanations. I am aware that child trafficking, slavery and child labour are crimes which are not comparable with the primary motives surrounding the house help system where improverished children are fully assimilated and absolved in homes or business places while being taken care of by guardians and distant relatives in most cases. I have never upheld the degeneration in the househelp system, maltreatment and victimization of househelps as basic principles of the system. These issues arise when people that are supposed to take care of them begin to oppress them. A lot of children have benefitted from the system and i have numerous tales from beneficiaries. Secondly,i never situated my premise along the lines of child labour and trafficking which are criminal offenses. It is one thing to take in a child,it is another to maltreat and subject them to slavery and emasculate their right,which is what informed Eldee's post, that is if you are able to read and process simple information. Slavery/child labour and househelp system devoid of maltreatment are two parallel issues. Some of you reason and analyze comments like animals! Go back to Eldee's premise/post, look at the context and see that your fooolishness is astronomical! You are an Idiiot if i have to explain this again! |

Ugosample:I don't understand why you are stalking me and jumping into my post on other threads especially when you don't understand basic principles and difference. I clearly made a difference between child labour and house help system in Africa which hundreds of poor children have benefitted from. Problems arises when people maltreat and deny them of human rights and expose them to dangers. No person on earth will condemn a guardian who is taking care of child and provided him/her with education while he/her help out around the house. This model has been used on many accounts to bring children out of poverty and give them a new lease of life. There is a big difference between child labour/slavery and the househelp system. I hope your keep your stupiddty away and quit intruding in my discourse. |

Exciton:I really don't understand the use of these slurs and insults. An intelligent person will weigh the opinion of others and counter it without acting out like an idiott. I made my opinion founded on my experiences with house help system in Africa and Nigeria and demonstrated how some indigent children have benefitted from it. Within the Igbo society, apprentiship is another form of House help but this is rather done in the market place which has produced hundreds of rich igbo men who otherwise would have languished in poverty in childhood. I also stressed that emasculation of human rights within the househelp system and child labour is a form of slavery which is far different from the African house help system. Blame your poor comprehension skills and fooliishness. |

GuyfawkesAB:Very typical of Black Africans to make a National issue a tribal and ethnic issue. I don't have helps because i don't need any but i've personal experiences of how Children have been absorded in families. For some of them,it has been the only means of survival. Child house helps is not an abuse or slavery, on the other hand Child labour and maltreatment of househelps,both child and adult is a form of slavery. In Slavery, human beings are sold off to their masters, Under Househelps, these children are put under the care of guardians. Househelp and indectured servitude is not an illegal culture in Africa as long as the child is not maltreated or denied his right. Stay away from ethnic bigotry if you must respond to my post. |

oyb:Learn the difference between indectured help and slavery. Most children house helps are those living in abject poverty in rural areas and are placed under guardians in the hope that they get a better life in the urban areas as the help their guardians around the house. Their parents are usually given a token for the services rendered while the older ones get to control their salary. The problem of violation of right arises only when her/his wards maltreats him/her other than that house help is not comparble to auctioning and selling humans in broad day light. |

greypencils:I didn't mention your name when i posted the difference between slavery and indectured servitude and the stupidity behind mixing up the two. Indectured servitude has always been a way of life in Africa and has created a system where people can understudy their guardians and become part of their family or business. Househelps whether children or adult is not slavery and cannot be compared to slavery. It can only be slavery when people are denied their basic rights or maltreated. As a Nigerian, i have witnessed numerous poor child house helps become a member of the host family,treated kindly and sent to school. Not every woman is interested in maltreating her employees. House help is not child slavery based on the circumstances surrounding it. Househelps are employed , Slaves are bought and owned! Keep your stupidity to yourself! |

Nothing can be compared to human slavery especially when it done by other races as a result of their prejudice against Black people. It absolutely disgust me when people try to theorize Black Slavery and attempt to give it other definitions. What is happenning in Libya is Pure Slavery which is entirely different from House helps and Child Labour. All countries in the world have house helps,assistants,nannies etc that either live with them or away from them. Child labour is another evil that equally present in most countries around the world. From time immemorial in Africa, children and adults are often employed to help around the house and take care of younger children and usually under the care of their gurdians. Slavery on the other hand is the enslavement of human beings,the buying, selling and absolute ownership of human beings. The Househelp is employed to work and is placed under the care of her gurdians, Slaves are owned by individuals and bound to their owners. Africans should stop being stupid, slavery is not equivalent to employment of househelps!! Slavery in Libya is incomparable to any sort of indectured servitude/house help. 1 Like |

There is no doubt that the conquerors always tell the story of their conquest by vilifying Africans yet refuse to acknowledge the part they played when they intentionally introduced slavery and distabilized African way of life. The problem with you is that you see the Europeans as saints and angels in their native homes and dealings with Africa. Are you trying to say Europeans don't have bad blood/prejudice, didn't fight each other and other things you accuse Africans of. Or is it because other races were not opportuned to exploit certain loopholes? Inferiority complex at it's best!
