Please, can someone tell me why the Igbos will get Biafra with this type of attitude?

The truth must be exposed, the Igbos hate Ebonyians. Smh

****Renaming Of Abakaliki Street In Anambra, A Slap On Every Ebonyian***

Since the creation of Ebonyi state in 1996, Ebonyians have always been marginalised and hated. You may ask by who?

It is not by the Yorubas, Fulanis or Hausa!! Truth must be told!! It is still the same Igbos like us that always see Ebonyians as illiterates.

It is very heartbreaking, devastating and shocking that an Anambra man who ought to see an Ebonyian as his brother, will turn around to call him 'Onye Wawa'.

The day I got the shock of my life was the day my friend who is from Enugu told me not to tell people that I am from Ebonyi state. I asked him, 'Why' ? He told me that they see Ebonyians as fools and illiterates. He equally told me that I do not behave like someone who is from Ebonyi state, so I should deny the state of my origin, just to please him and his people. I ignored him because in life, I have learnt not displease myself to please another person! Secondly, am proud to be an Ebonyian and can't deny it for any reason!

Yes!

Why should I not be given a job just because am from Ebonyi? Not because am not qualified!

The questions remain, why should the Igbos who want a sovereign state of Biafra still hate one another?

Why should we Igbos be talking about Biafra when we don't love ourselves?

Why should we Igbos be talking about Marginalisation, when we marginalise ourselves?

The renaming of a street in Anambra by Governor Willie Obiano shows that there is no love, unity, peace among the Igbos. It is an act every Igbo man should condemn just like Umahi did. It is a slap on our face.

We know you guys hate us but that does not mean you should treat us the way and manner you like.

Ebonyians are wiser now, we are educated, we are hard working, we are farmers and cannot  be intimidated any longer by those we see as our brothers and sisters.

Until we Igbos, eschew the hatred among ourselves and see ourselves as brothers and sisters despite our state of origin, we cannot thrive or get what we want!!

While no state can be forced to give it's land for the ranches, the FG has the right to purchase land anywhere it deems fit to do whatsoever it likes. Also the land use act gives the FG the power to appropriate land in some instances for national development

Mylove55:
We will still burn it .
I don't know why the jobless aggressive lazy idiotic pigs of biafra are wasting their dubious resources on fruitless exercise.

ElsonMorali:
Asking all the wrong questions. The real question is why didn't the Igbos vacate aboki land?

NwanyiAwkaetiti:
You know that's untrue. My mom stood by my dad through thick and thin until his very last breathe. So don't you generalize. Humans have been known for infidelity since inception so nothing is new. Just pray you Marry right.

ElsonMorali:
Because it's true.

All those other places too accommodate you.

That's the truth. But you'd rather pretend that you're developing those places right?

Self delusion is not a right bro, so stop insisting on it.

Your childish outbursts only serve to show us the mentality behind the original post.

You started the post like somebody that had something important to say, but the hatred which has put down tap roots in your soul couldn't help you from spewing the usual garbage you'd expect from an uncultured and unlettered Igbo boy who hides behind the anonymity of Nairaland to throw shades at his betters.

I'm glad for one thing though. Every time you wake up and realize that you are in the midst of your enemy, living amongst them and knowing that you can't go back home, you get a serious headache. That is a thing of joy.

Now, don't argue with me, argue with your phone or your shadow.

When you are man enough to go home and face certain hunger and starvation squarely in the face, then you can come and argue with me.

ElsonMorali:
Was that why you were running helter skelter when the northern youths gave your sorry ass an ultimatum to vacate their abode?

I didn't see you here boasting that you bought the lands off them.

Ask your parents why during the civil war they fled back to the east.


Anu e she mi. If you hear yeeee! You'd better pack your loads and run.

Haggui:
I don't want to believe IPOB wrote this but if indeed it's true, then IPOB has lost focus. What's your business with which day Nigeria picks as her democracy day? You don't participate in Nigerian elections, you don't want to be part of Nigeria and her government yet you're interested in the day Nigeria has chosen as her democracy day. In what way does Nigeria celebrating June 12 affect IPOB and Biafrans as a whole? If you say it was a Greek gift to Yorubas, why not allow the Yorubas to accept or reject their gift.

ElsonMorali:
This is hilarious. Yorubas hate you but they allow you to build your shops in their domain, allow you to raise kids and families in their domain? Lol.

It's because you hate the Yorubas that's why you think they must hate you back.

Who gives a crap about you. You aren't the only tribe in Nigeria. Note that.

Adefemiaderoju1:
Stop all this nonsense talk with Yoruba muslim bla bla, there's nothing like Yoruba muslim in Yoruba land, nothing you Igbo son of no trace would do to divide us as we are unit like never before, so try look for something else.

Machini:
Hmm. Well believe whatever you choose.


But let's even assume for a moment that GTBank is ordered to pay Innoson N12bn. That would not in any way scratch the bank's profitability. GTBank made over N200bn in 2017 alone!

grandstar:
Don't take it personal. Are you Igbo? It is not an Igbo or Yoruba or Hausa thing.

It is strictly business

CoolAmbience:
The law must always be allowed to take its course, not blindly pointing finger at the government all the time.

Who could have called him a fraudster without any conviction? That must be silly.

You are either new on Nairaland or a hypocrite. Revisit the comments on the threads about the humiliating arrest of Innoson on his pyjamas by EFCC. Then revisit your comment and modify accordingly.

DSDLIVEREPORT:
where are your manners? I never insulted anyone young man

DSDLIVEREPORT:
where did you get your conclusion. I am.so happy for the man just because I don't wish any one that have built so much to be destroyed overnight. So I congratulate him.u know how.many lives are connected to the.man's destiny. So pls spare me this ethnic sentiment. Do u also know.how.many Yorubas are among the judges? I am Yoruba and I thank God he wasn't brought down

legba1:
som of u guys just like to talk....a civil matter was settled by the court in favour of one who was able to prove his case beyound reasonable doubt and u are all shouting shame to this shame to that....if buhari is really interested in this case...do y'all think the judgement will be in innosson favour...I beg make una stop playing this tribal card .

Afterall ibos greed triggered leadership wahala in nigeria....ur kinsmen truncated democracy with the first coup bringing in aguiyi ironsi and since then naija had remained messed up.

CoolAmbience:
Where are the people that alleged that it was the FG that was fighting Innoson?

PataAlhaja:
Olodo, which bank is finished?

You must be very dumb to think GTB wouldn't have made provisions for the litigation in their books for the 2017 financial year end.

That means they must have netted off the worst-case-scenario payments to Innoson from their profit before tax.

Despite that, the bank still made 170 billion Naira in Profit after Tax and paid 2.40 Naira as final dividend!

Lazy Nigerian Youth like you.

Focusmind:
Igbos and their disgusting posts. What has this got to do with tribe? A judgment between two companies and people are here fighting themselves. What is your business? Will Innoson give you part of the money? I don't know why little things should turn into ethnic rivalry and insults in Nairaland.

grandstar:
GTB can afford it but the perceived injustice is the issue. They definitely don't feel Innoson is entitled to a dime.

Anyway, the right thing for GTB to do is simply to pay up and respect the law. It has no choice

It will set a good precedent.

Jaideyone:
this your whole Yoruba Christian versus Yoruba Muslim talk is stale and boring. don't you have something to do with your life even if your parents are still feeding you at 35?

CyynthiaKiss:
Buhari, your desperation to retain power is so strong.
One thing is certain, you might succeed in deceiving some fanatical yoryuba Muslimns, but you can't deceive progressive/Yoruba Christians.
We Christian Yorubas will not vote for you in 2019.
We won't vote for someone who is busy killing our Christian brothers in north central because we all know that once you are done with northern Christians, you will face southern Christians, Yoruba Christians included during your second tenure.
God forbids.!

If Abiola is so special in Yoruba land as you want to paint it, why did my people reject renaming Unilag after him ?
Abiola has come and gone, we have our way of mourning and remembering him.

Terrorist Buhari, your antics is dead on arrival .
Progressive Yorubas are wiser...

Berrilite:
This is getting out of hand. I hope taraba state governor is ready for the repercussion of this US visit.

Anyway, for natural method for management of diabetes, check my profile. You will be glad you did.

God bless T.Y Danjuma and God bless Governor Darius. This are true leaders, not that Otom of Benue.

Angelanest:
Residents of Sheka in the Kumbotso Local Government Area of Kano Stateare calling on the Kano state government to come to their aid after torrential rain in the area caused flooding which exhumed corpses from their graves. This unfortunate development means that burial ground is in a deplorable condition and needs urgent attention.

Gwadabe Nana Asmau who was taken round the cemetery revealed that one of the maintenance staff said human skeletons, as well as fresh corpses, had been washed out of their graves by the flood in the area in recent days.

“Whenever there is heavy rainfall, most of our dead bodies would be washed out and seen floating in the burial ground, he lamented.

An alarm was previously raised last month concerning the cemetery but it appears nothing was done about it. The people are calling on well-meaning individuals, companies and groups to intervene and save the cemetery from this impending epidemic.

montedo:
Speak for yourself. You will be surprised by the number of people who still quietly support Buhari in the west including yoruba muslims. The reason is because no matter what is posted on nairaland by easterners mainly, people still see Buhari as corruption-free.
Many of you are in for a huge shock in 2019.

We like lying to ourselves. There's just more to her personality that could've made the man fall for her as just physical looks isn't the only criteria some men use in choosing wives.
