To all and sundry who says Igbos are not marginalised, can you give one tangible reason for the anomaly that Reno pointed out.

It's very obvious, but due to the hatred they have for Igbos, they will say it doesn't matter.....

Sometimes I wonder what is it about the Igbos that makes every other tribe in Nigeria hate them.
When it comes to all ills associated with Nigeria, all other tribes re not exempted, so why the hate.

Name any crime associated with Nigeria, you will not fail to see an individual from every tribe that has been involved one way or the other.

So why always the IGBOS.

Ka Chineke nyere anyi aka.

You guys have governors, senators and house of reps members, all elected by you and you alone.

what exactly did you elect them for if they can't represent you on a federal level.
all they do is embezzle funds while being lauded

first look inward
before you shift the blame outward

I just a call too. I felt it was a scam and googled them. Then I found this thread

The one who called said his name was Engr Wale from Pipeline petroleum marketing company. Even the name sounded like a scam. The aboki is also hon usman mohammed, and the product is durad150 made in Germany, the idiot was stressing that part. Anyways I and my friends let him finish his pitch while the phone was on speaker and then we rained curses on him
These are their numbers

most of you people don't even realise that He is just giving you old news. we have just concluded phase 2 out of the 3 phases necessary for a nuclear programme. the two plants are to be sited in itu, akwa ibom and geregu, kogi state. for the wailers crying about it being a ploy by this administration, the first one will be completed by 2025, and this programme has been in active planning for over 10years

blues20:
Dude, did you go through this post from page 1? Who fired the first shot? Was this thread created against the Yoruabs? Was it not in celebration of Biafran achievement over 3 years civil war?
Why are you speaking from both side of your mouth? Who is talking about empire and kingdom? Was there any mention of empire and kingdom from the post? check yourself very well. You, as a Yoruba, do possess an innate insecurity on anything Igbo... that's a fact.
When you guys stop poke-nosing on our issues, then you'll begin to recover from your inferiority complex.
@ the bold, don't kill yourself on how we will survive, cuz we've been doing that. Our status.... can attest to it, irrespective of over the years marginalization/balkanisation of our land from your Federal Government.

This all started when someone tried to correct come errors in the thread and y'all became insecure and defensive of what you felt was an abuse of your heritage. to me the truth is this, anything worth its salt in this world can speak for itself, just like christians don't have to defend God cause we believe He is the almighty and our defender and not vice versa
personally, i really don't care if some people built or didn't build war machines decades ago, i care about what they are doing now

freshdude99:
Wack history that doesn't make any sense. With ur so called juju empire wat did ur race achieve with it? First capital of Nigeria or wat? Stop being ignorant troll. The easterners had a working system which was bastadized by the wyts, that's why history has it that majority of those sold out into slavery away from the shores of this country is mostly from the south. The famous jaja of opobo is an appetizer if u need a clue. So just shut up about al those empire rubbish, for it to have survived showed ur people don't have a decision of their own. Any where belle face tribe? Afonjaz Dem mtsheew

AND YOU BELIEVE YOU HAVE SENSE?

IT IS WELL WITH YOUR SOUL

lordkhalifa:
yeah we are chest beaters because we are achievers... after the pogrom which we all know how it was won, without western ally I wonder would have become of you by now... probably in shackle pounding fufu,
the only thing u can be proud of



1 ewedu and amala

has anyone on this thread actually read the history of Nigeria prior to colonialism? the Yoruba empire was the only one in the entirety of West Africa to survive right up to colonisation. the Igbos didn't even have a centralised govt. the most they had was the long juju at arochukwu. not even a kingdom.

and now you guys come here to form bosses on NL.

ask yourselves this, if Biafra does break out what exactly do you have to offer? you all wail about being treated badly by the govt, yet you have senators, reps and governors voted by youbown hands.

y'all should look inwardly for the geniuses in you rather than place blames elsewhere

cheruv:
Lost out what
The nuclear bomb America ended the second world war with was built by German Jews who fled Germany when Hitler rose to power
Even during the war,German arms were on a 1:1 basis better than those of either the Soviets or Americans

keyword being jews. we both the Jews were being persecuted so they were no longer German.
and the German arms were never the same with the Allies once the USA declared war.
if u ain't sure go and read history very well
even the British later surpassed the germans

BiafraBushBoy:
They won't allow us study chemical Engineering in UNN...

A carbon copy of an atomic bomb will be ready in a few days..

Fvck Nigeria...

A country whose vision is to produce pencil in 2018... lol

iranu

smh, rotfl
Na so dem dey take make atomic bomb
go back to school ehn...
you still have a long way ahead of you

panditocracy:
Useless he-goat, all your life, am very sure you have not traveled out of the shout waste.

note: he didn't debunk my claims

truth hurts...

or why else must you people travel to the "shout waste" to make money.

freshvine:
You mean your land is more developed than Enugu, Onitsha, nnewi, Aba, Owerri, Abakiliki, Umuahia, Awka, Nsukka, Orlu, put together? A region less in land mass to Oyo and Osun combined?

so how come y'all are decrying the state of under development and govt abandonment as a reason for secession

freshvine:
I wonder what will happen now if it happens all over again.

No wonder they sent out Abdulsalami Abubakar to go spy on Innoson Technology. Since he started this aircraft spare parts and services They've been shitting.

I trust the igbo man not to tell him jack

see ehn, this innoson aircraft brouhaha is becoming too much. Na spares them dey do o, not designing planes. all you need for spares are casts and materials. stop riding on the wave of something mediocre. instead of us to be encouraging aircraft design and construction we are applauding spares.

LoveMachine:
My old man used to tell me stories about the war. He told me about how they used refine "bonny" as he called it. I thought he was just telling stories until I started doing research on the war. He told no lies. We were really that magical.

No need for the anger in this thread. Biafrans pumped out some serious tech in a short period. LOOK IT UP!

yes they did. but the question is, where are they now, all we have now is just a generation of money hungry, tech lazy people living off former glory.
what happened to the geniuses who created these. what happened to the Biafra of then. now Igbo land is only synonymous with fraud, and fake products. apart from Aba what else can igboland showcase as produce (and I don't mean coal, oil or Igbos in diaspora 'cos those aren't doing it for the motherland)

BTW I'm proudly Yoruba

seguno2:
You think sey na I-better-pass-my-neighbor matter na im we dey talk abi?
Who dem epp ko.
WHEN dem go epp ni.
If you have an engineer around you, please ask him to explain things to you oh.

dude, I'm a year 5 student of Elect Elect Engr.

so when I tell you that our discos have done nothing to improve our electricity generation, it's because they haven't. do you even know how much power Nigeria as a whole would need to be be sufficient , at least 150GW and we are only generating an average of just 3.6 - 5GW

do the research dude. don't just talk because you know how to

Warship:
The only projectile technology they knew was guided rocket aka missile.

If they knew how to build bullet/shell technology, Nigeria troops would have perished and vanquished.

If they had gone an extra mile to successfully build a jet engine technology, Lagos, Kano and Kaduna, would have been reduced to rumbles like Berlin.

yup, I agree but they would have needed more time, tech and way more funds than what Biafra had at that time. even Germany during WWII spent billions on their tech but still lost out on the nuclear bomb development to the USA

Warship:
If you took your history classes serious, you would have known that Biafra was blockade by sea/air and therefore, could not import such machineries through her sea.

so how were bullets and shells brought it, cos those where no made in biafra

new2020:
**** you need heavy machineries to make those parts abi? If B!afrans engineers and scientists reasoned like your amala brain, they would not have manufactured a simple device. Whenever Ojukwu will tell them to manufacture a weapon or device for the survival of the B!afran nation...they will all reply with you amala thinking brain " WE NEED HEAVY MACHINERIES TO MANUFACTURE THAT DEVICE" ****You see why Igbos don't reason like you people? ****

Go and see if Innoson uses heavy machineries to manufacture aviation parts for Nigerian Airforce. Only if you will travel out of your amala region to Nnewi...do you know that car, trucks mechanical parts that most Nigerians use...gear box, fuel pumps, water pumps, transmissions are manufactured in Nnewi and branded as made in Japan? Go and tell Abdsulami Abubakar he doesn't know what he was saying when he visited Nnewi last week.

you have ended the matter "branded made in Japan" has it never disappointed you that most inferior part are known and addressed as Igbo made?
besides common you fit produce anything that standard under your bed ni? where are the factories?

misscall247:
Op hope dis pix touched u too.........it teks a civilized man to do want GEJ did here



I ve said if @any point I'm not ready to accept defeat,I will not near d corridor of power



Gej is d 1st Nigerian president to do dis#i love him 4dis

I agree with you. but considering the internal and external scrutiny Nigeria was going through during the elections Jonathan knew that was the only way he could save face( and now he is receiving medals for it) so to me it was a common sense decision. besides even his closest allies then were all about looting the CBN and escaping with the money so he was basically surrounded by people waiting to abandon him at the slightest provocation

ndcide:
No problem , man from Kenya and his team are still on election mood, they are still gloating and it's so exciting.
Seun and lalasticlala, are excited to move it to front page. No problem.

But when we respond now, they will say we hate buhari, they will tell us it will cause ethnic unrest.

When we respond they will ask us why we are not joining hands with the government to build the nation.
When we respond, they will still ask us why we want to ridicule buhari's government.

They will tell us it's because they are fighting corruption... These people just don't know when to stop.

The moderator and admin are enjoying it now. When the ruthless response start coming, they'll be looking for who to ban.

You guys consider. First to do, no dey pain. second to do, eye go red.

abeg Jonathan's wailers did way worse things on NL

Mister man.... WETI U DEY POST..

smh...

most people do not actually understand what we are really going through in Nigeria right now and are too blinded by their own personal problems to see the bigger picture.

but please just ask yourself this my brother, and answer honestly, if Jonathan was still in power now, how do you think Nigeria will be? way worse or way better

seguno2:
E be like sey you are just as illiterate as our president wey no get certificate.
Is that true?
Otherwise you should have read, heard and felt the presence of DISCOS, GENCOS as part of the long overdue electricity sector reforms.
Please don't perish for lack of knowledge.
Please.

considering the fact that Nigeria until Feb 2016 was still generating the same amount of power for over 30 years, wetin the discos and gencos do? who dey epp

unanonso:
The funny thing is that it has refused to work for me even though I was the one you gave the solution to.

don't even now what to say

sorry brov

Esegracexxx:
Explain d procedure u used.

its negga4al procedure above

Just finished... the only issue is your screen has to be on, if your screen goes off you have to start the process again, however the plus is your download will start from its last position

negga4al:
For those complaints on 2028 date with no WiFi connection.

Thanks brov... works like a charm

Collinz2:
i tried it the date keeps going to current date back

tried it. still doesn't download. besides d size is just over 600mb, while on other phones I'm seeing over 800mb

Esegracexxx:
someone answer dis please

Are you also experiencing the same issue

Hullo house, I know this may sound weird but I have an issue with my phone. Been trying to do the ota update but it says WiFi only till 2026. Connected to WiFi , still the same thing. Any suggestions.

OLADD:
And who told you APC truly won the 2015 election? The way kids like you reason on Nairaland is somewhat pathetic. Many of us had predicted Jonathan's victory in that election but reality began to set in when Jega apparently schemed PVC distribution to favour a section of the country. I won't waste my time in talking about how APC came to power but posterity will remind you and the nation at the ripe time.

See this one ooo. So PDP truly won the election? even with Dasuki and his cohorts turning the CBN into a piggy bank just do they could pay off people. The only way you wouldn't have heard of the bribes on election day would have been you living under a rock.

#WailersGonnaWail

obailala:
At a meagre 5,000mw, Nigerians enjoyed up to 18-20hrs power supply accros the entire country for months. I can assure you that 7,000 to 10,000 can translate to a steady 20-22hrs accross the nation. The only thing is, when power becomes fairly stable, it would drive industrialisation, and with a large drive in industrialisation, the power demand will increase monumentally and then even 10,000mw wouldn't be enough any more. But with the current state of things (non-industralised Nigeria), even 7000mw would do wonders.

You've got it all wrong. for starters over 40%of Nigerians do not have power at all. even 7,000mw is barely enough for Lagos ( the most populous state) to get 24/7 electricity in all its environs
