There's a reason he's called Sabobarcanista.

NgeneUkwenu:
So TonyeBarcanista must support corrupt people in order to please IPOB Youths?

tuale4u:
Leave Barcanista alone. He is a Nigerian. He is free to support Buhari. He owes you nothing. Stop crying over split milk.

IPOB youths can be so pathetic.

tsdarkside:
i dont care...if money makes you happy,then,enjoy..but dont forget,others have other prioritys than money....just look that you dont disturb others with your devotion for money.......okay??

TonyeBarcanista:
Shattaaaaap! Ignoramus. There is nothing like Edo Kingdom, there is only Benin Kingdom. We have treaties that the British signed with our ancestors as far back as 1889 and even 1901. The Ijaws informed the British in the 40s that we want to be autonomous but the fools(British) refused and lumped us with other nationalities in Eastern region. It was never so before. The so called Midwest was created in 1963 after the Western region allowed referendum but the Igbos refused us referendum to suppress us. Thanks to Awo and Gowon! We made agitation for Oil Rivers state(Ijaws in Rivers and Akwa Ibom), Toru Ibe state(for Ijaws in Delta, Edo and Ondo) and Bayelsa state but were only given Bayelsa. If we had got those states, it will mean that Ijaw has 3 exclusive states of their own and project our identity. I don't blame your kind, I blame the foolish British and the Nigerian structure.




Beside: There is nothing like "Core Deltan", you are an Igboman.

TonyeBarcanista:
Point of correction, Niger Delta tribes are not closely related to the Igbos. We all have different ancestory, whether Ogoni, Ijaw, Urhobo, Benin, Itsekiri etc. Please, be guided

Proud igede from benue state...am not a northener.

omenka:
I'm Igede and I'm NOT a Northerner.

Ugomba:
I keep telling TonyeBarcanista that his tactics to spread his "Ijaw tailored Igbophobic enemity" in the South South here will FAIL WOEFULLY.
- The authour of this article is an Ogoni man, We Aniomas even the Urhobos, Isoko etc have no problem with Igbos.
- Efik, Ibibio, Anangs people have been peaceful neighbours with the Igbos historically.
- Keep Your Igbophobic Agenda in your swampy ijaw land and Don't infect South South with it.

Ugomba:
what a child abuse! Teaching him how to hate a tribe based on fabricated lies.
- even He carried the hatred into relationship with an Igbo girl.
.. Until the wind of truth blew on him and behold his eyes are now clear.

THE MYTHS:
As a boy growing up on the street of Port Harcourt, I was told so many horrible things about Igbos:
I was told that Igbos were planning to push Rivers people to Abia State for the people of Abia to inhabit Rivers State because of our resources.
I was told that Igbo people enslaved and ruled over my people in Bori the traditional headquarters of Ogoni Kingdom.
I was told that Odumegwu Ojukwu, Onyeka Onwenu and other prominent Igbos brazenly rejoiced over the execution of my uncle Ken Saro Wiwa because of the role he played during the Civil War.
I was told that it is better to be slaves to Hausas than to be brothers to Igbos because, Igbos are worse than Hausas.
THE EFFECTS:
These things made me to terribly detest Igbos beyond what you can imagine, I was always skeptical, cynical and suspicious while dealing with Igbos. It also affected my friendship with Igbo guys, I was always careful not to be a victim, no matter how they value the friendship, as long as they are Igbos, they were bad eggs to me.
It also severely affected my relationship with Igbo girls, 70% of the girls I have seen are Igbos girls but I have never treated any of my Igbo girlfriends fairly because, I programmed my mind not to be interested in anything beyond the fun attached to the chemistry of boys and girls stuff while dealing with an Igbo girl, I didn’t want to make the mistake of dating an Igbo girl to the extent of marrying her.
THE DISCOVERY:
I was posted to Akwa Ibom State for my national youth service in November 2013, there I made so many Igbo friends, almost 60% of Akwa Ibom corps members are from Igbo extraction, mainly from IMSU, FUTO, ABSU, UMUDIKE, ESUT and IMT.
There I saw how determined a typical Igbo youth is, there I saw the natural tendency for economic success in a typical Igbo guy, there I saw the reason why Igbos are entrepreneurs allover the globe, there I saw that God specially gave them the metaphysical eyes to see money in things and where you don’t even think of smelling money, there I saw that even though the Igbos have had severe political travails and marginalization, they will forever remain the economic salt of Nigeria, even after the restoration of Biafra.
While we were serving, those of us who are Port Harcourt breed UNIPORT/RSUST corps members were always complaining that Akwa Ibom is beautiful but not groovy like Port Harcourt, we were always complaining that the town is dry with no night life like Port Harcourt. But our friends from the Igbo extraction were seeing things differently, they saw Akwa Ibom as a beautiful virgin land highly in need of economic exploration, they saw huge business opportunities in where we saw boredom.
We were complaining of the insufficient N19,800 ‘alawi’ (allowance) while they were seeing it as potential small scale business capital. We used our alawi to club in one night because, we didn’t see it as good enough to help us, while our Igbo friends inject it into their small scale businesses. We were always going to Tropicana to see movies while our Igbo friends are busy going to Lagos to bring wears and jewelries for us to buy. We were always calling home for money but our Igbo friends were sending money home instead.
At the end of my service year, I said I was going back to Port Harcourt because I believed Uyo was too dry for me to hustle, but my Igbo friends stayed back because they saw Uyo as a land lacking business and as such, it’s good for them to make money through the introduction of different businesses.
THE REVERSAL:
I came back to Port Harcourt then pondered on my experience with these Igbo brains, I then realised why people hate them, I felt bad seriously for wrongly hating them all these while, I decided to love them because, they have the kind of zeal I’d love to emulate.
THE CONVICTION:
When I was fully convinced that the Igbos are not only my role models but my blood was when they went against all odds to make Goodluck Jonathan their own, they loved him even more than some us from the South South, they gave him their full support at the poll not minding the consequences. Ever since, I couldn’t stop loving Igbos but to love them even more.
THE RECOMMENDATION:
Igbos drive the economy of every towns and cities in Nigeria, nobody can change that, so instead of hating them for doing business in your place, I’d advise you compete with them even if you know you can’t beat them because, it is your land that is benefiting economically.
IN CONCLUSION:
Igbos are subject of hate in this country, apparently due to wrong perception, but I personally think Igbos are cool like any other tribe, and bad like any other tribe too. Though my main problem with them is that, they never admit their flaws no matter how glaring but they are always quick to lampoon the slightest folly of other tribes.
If you want to be successful economically, think like Igbos

DiademSh07:
LOL!
Which Anioma was stolen from the East? Were they part of the Eastern Region in the first place?
Yeye!

Goodboiyy:
Of a truth am not happy with the current arrangement of Nigeria, But this your biafra of a thingy is a hell no 4 me and my people, My decision should b respected, .. If dearpreye tells u Urhobo, Itsekiri, Ijaw, Efik, ikwerre, Ogoni e.t.c re fully in support of your biafra then he (Dearpreye) is not telling you the truth.

Our position is very clear , What about you leaving your biafra agitation and join hands with Ndeltans For resource control ?.. If you can't leave your dream to support us, do you want us to leave our Dream for your sake?..

Niger Deltans Are cut in the Middle in this biafra / Nigeria malady with both parties fighting to keep ND, without seeking what NDeltans really want - Goodboiyy
