Kamensky:He mighy still one day be Prime minister of Great Britain. He is still a young man |
achieverme:Anybody can be found wearing that type of dress in the SE/SS/NC area. There is nothing in the picture that concretely shows it is Igbo land. |
Earth2Metahuman:Which Senator or National assembly did Lord Lugard go to when he was creating Nigeria? Rev Kukah is an intelligent man but in this regard, I think he is wrong. Since the Igbo/Yoruba/ Hausa man never sat down together and formally agreed to become Nigerians, it means that none of the three have any contractual obligation to stay Nigerians. So how can the Igbo man then go to a national assemby to ask for his independence when he never gave up that indepedence in the first place? Why should Yoruba/Hausa reps be voting in an Igbo independence matter? Because Lord Lugard forced all of us together? Laughable |
OlujobaSamuel:But Nigeria was created by Lord Lugard through fiat. So you justify your Nigerian dream that was created through fiat and deny others getting their own dream through the same fiat. |
mrkayusfit:Spoken like a true African. By the way, what were you before Lord Lugard made you a Nigerian? |
Nigeria has never had a good president to date. All of them were horribly bad. |
mrkayusfit:And your Nigeria that is alive and kicking, what has come of it? |
StOla:Because Maimalari was more qualified. Maimalari was amongst the first Nigerians to attend Sandhurst military Academy and became a full fledged combatant Army officer. But people like Shodeinde and Bassey were just recruits were given short officers training and commissioned into the Army. As can be seen in this picture, Maimalari is the same rank as David Ejoor but it was Maimalari who interviewed Ejoor when Ejoor was about to enter the Army. Sometimes, promotion in the Army is about how qualified you are not when you joined. If you don't do the necessary courses, others can leapfrog over you and become your senior. In terms of seniority, it was even Major Bassey who was the most senior being the first commissioned Nigerian officer with the Army number (N1). Major Wellington Bassey (N1) Major Aguiyi Ironsi (N2) Major Ademulegun (N3) Captain Nwawo (N10) Captain David Ejoor(N17) |
HungerBAD:Stop the lies! Everything was not going well when Nzeogwu and co struck. There serious problems arising from the 1963 census and the flawed 1964 elections. There was widespread mayhem particularly in the Western Region. As for the War, it was Gowon that caused the war by breaking the terms of the Aburi agreement. |
HurtgenForest:True. But the nincompoop who started this thread ( probably a Yoruba guy) twisted the headline to make it look like Igbos did this for the fear of Herdsmen. |
MXrep:Look at the picture well and tell me anything you see that tells you this is Igbo land? |
I took a closer look at the pictures, this is not Igbo land. There is no way People will gather like this in an Igbo village land and nobody is wearing a traditional Igbo dress. Not possible! They are all wearing English clothing in a Village in Enugu? The news is fake! |
This could be fake news. I see Palm trees in the picture so it's possible it could be Igbo land. But, there isn't any vigilante in Igbo land in sympathy with herdsmen who have been commiting untold attrocities. If this is Igbo land, then it could be just a case where some youths stole ( cow or otherwise) and the vigilante apprehended them. Igbos have no love for herdsmen. |
Yorubas have no option but to swim or sink with Buhari. It was Yoruba votes that tipped the scales for Buhari to win. Buhari's faliure will be their faliure. |
As much as I don't like Buhari, if elections were held today, he would still win because us in the SE/SS will vote against him and the rest will again vote in the gworo chewing dullard from Daura. |
I see Chukwuemeka Ojukwu Jr looking every inch like his father. So unfortunate he could never quite walk in his fathers shoes, nobody can. |
It is only when Buhari starts fighting corruption within the Nigerian police and all the uniformed services like custom, immigration and Army that I will take his so called anti-corruption war serious. It is pure amusement that Buhari is chasing about Billions allegedly stolen in the previous administration but Billions are stolen everyday through extortionate means from Nigerians by the Police, Army, customs etc |
I congratulate my fellow Igbos to have seen Buhari for the disaster of a leader he is and stayed away from him. I have no doubt that Buhari will be a much worse leader than GEJ ever was. Those who voted Buhari and APC can now enjoy their so called "change" for another 3 years |
Aquariann:You are so ignorant! Nigeria declared War and invaded the Biafran border town of of Gakem in Ogoja on July 6th 1967 sparking off armed confrontation. The invasion of the Midwest and Ore happend "after" Nigeria invaded Biafra. Nigeria invaded Biafra and Biafra invaded Nigerianin return. |
Aquariann: |
sunnyeinstein:I guess nobody told you that Gowon broke the terms of Aburi? Be that as it may, what Ojukwu declared was Biafra not war. It was Nigeria that declared was because it did not agree with Biafra. No matter how you look at it, it will always be Nigeria that declared war because it was Nigeria that came to East to fight. |
sunnyeinstein:How come you people keep lying that Ojukwu started the war? Ojukwu was in the East when War came to him, so how could he have started it? |
B2mario:That is one thing they don't realise. Igbos have never been at loggerheads with the minorities |
mrkayusfit:It is hugely amusing when people open threads just to come up with every reason why Igbos should remain part of Lord Lugards colonial creation called Nigeria. It shows the fear and desperation. The funny thing is that you will hardley ever see any Igbo opening a thread to come up with reasons why Yoruba/Hausa people should stay in Nigeria. |
Dino carry go! The Lion of Bourdillon only roars but cannot bite |
HungerBAD:But the one state that APGA is controlling is doing far better than any APC state. So what is the point? It is far better that APGA is contrling just a few states and they are doing well than a state to be controlled by APC but can even pay salaries |
Coolgent:Who cares about the presidency? Have you seen any tribe that presidency has benefited? You will call them names but tomorrow you will be fighting to do 'one Nigeria' with the same people. |
giles14:There is no tribe in Nigeria called Anioma. Nzeogwu was 100% an Igbo man from Okpanam in present day Delta state although he was born grew up in Kaduna and could speak Hausa and Igbo fluently. It is unfortunate that the first coup was not bloodless but that is the nature of the game sometimes. |
All hail 'one Nigeria!'. Nigerian are so united and love each other! I wonder why Ojukwu never saw this? Wait let me get my glasses and look at the pictures again......... |
Alcatraz001:Why do you people keep lying through your teeth? Has there ever been any 'special love' between Igbos and Yorubas? We have never really liked each other, it didn't take Kanu to know this. What we have done is just tolerate each other in the name of 'one Nigeria'. Igbos and Yorubas have never been friends and they mutually dislike and distrust each other. I am always shocked when i see what goes on here where the igbos wish evil on yorubas and support the militants attacking ogun and lagos states given the fact that yoruba land provides a conducive for igbos to carry on their business. My regrets also stem from the fact that i have wonderful igbos i work with in the office who are wonderful individuals and i cant wrap my head around the fact that these same people will wish yorubas evil. Posterity will be kind to yorubas because we have been wonderful hosts to the igbos and we dont deserve all the hate. There are better ways to go about your agitations.As I said above, Igbos and Yorubas don't like each other but tolerate each other. So why are you surprised that they are wishing each other bad on the Internet? As for this nonsense talk that Yorubas are wonderful hosts and provide a condusive environment in their lands for Igbos to prosper, are you for real? Under the principle of 'one Nigeria', it is the duty of the Yorubas to host and provide a condusive environment for any Nigerian! That is the price of 'one Nigeria' and if the Yorubas don't like it then they should agitate to renegotiate the terms of their engagement with the Nigerian union like others are. As long as there is 'one Nigeria', it is my right to go and exist anywhere in Yoruba land I like as an Igbo man! In conclusion, i would urge all igbos in other parts of Nigeria to heed the advice of the Ohaneze Ndigbo who adviced that the igbos divest from other parts of Nigeria and inveat in Igboland. This is imperative in the light of the awakening of the hitherto hospitable yorubas due to the barrage of hateful innuendoes from the igbos. I also want to assure you like i have always done that tje future leaders of the yoruba race are witnesses to the hate being exhibited against them by the igbos.I too agree that the Igbos should divest their businesses back home. In reality, the saying "there's no place like home" rings true. |
Why are people still talking about true federalism when you all know that the North are stoutly against it? They have vowed that it will never come back so how are you going to get the 2 thirds needed at NASS to bring it back? Anyone who is still talking about true federalism is just wasting their breath. |
blackpanda:Believe it or not, even a criminal has the right to tell you that he does not want to share the same country with you. It is left for you to ask your self why you want to be in one country with criminals. You said that it is only faceless people on the Internet that chant Biafra? You mean you haven't seen videos and pictures of millions of people protesting in different parts of the world for Biafra? Search on YouTube. Are they faceless? I don't know what you mean by abducting people, even the Abia state Government has long refuted the DSS claim that 5 people were abducted and killed and no one has seen any picture of the so called 5 people. Hijacking ships, don't make me laugh. Attacking policemen? IPOB is a peaceful group, it is them that have been shot, killed, arrested and tortured for their peaceful agitation. The videos and pictures of the security forces killing them are all over the Internet so if IPOB actually did attack any Police man, you should even be thanking them for having that restraint after all the bullet wounds they have taken in their bid to stay non violent. As for asking them to take the legal route to self rule, which legal means did Lugard take to create Nigeria? Which legal means did the British take to include them in Nigeria? So they now have to take legal means to get out an illegal creation called Nigeria? Laughable. |
