ablejesus26: Fixed �� Maybe you should do well to focus on your terror ravaged region. All of una wey dey here dey wish Igboland turns into una Ne through the occult ipob and their destructive agenda,will die in shame �. Igboland will bounce back to her status as the most peaceful region in the Country very soon. And this group of brainwashed thugs, cultist and criminals will have their day of doom very soon. Osisikankwu do pass dis one nah.
[/s]see Aboki dey form intellectual. Oga go and wash your dirty dxck
KingOfAmebo: "IPOB is the terrorist wing of the Igbo Nation, just as the Taliban is the terrorist wing of Afghanistan..
Sincerely, after reading through the senseless comments by IPOB miscreants wailing as usual on every thread, I have come to realize that truly there's a secret factory in Aba that manufactures senseless, dumb, stupid and formated brains...
How Nnamdi Kanu was able to brainwash his dumb followers is legendary and should be studied in school, I'll give that to him." - Village People spokesperson.
EVEN in this modern time of centralised political authority of the contemporary state, the nature of the political process among Ndigbo remains essentially consultative and in addition to the horizontal and fragmentary structure of its underlining political system is also the philosophical rationale that no one knows it all, notwithstanding the brilliance and exceptional knowledge of anyone or group of person as the reason why consultations is at the core of the Igbo political, social and cultural life.
The political and philosophical rationale puts a high premium on reaching consensus through deliberate and extensive consultations. Beyond the authority of the contemporary government that cut across the units of various communities in Igbo land, there is no traditional authority that exercises control or power beyond its domain which highest unit is usually a town, and are most times culturally homogenous.
The nature of the political process makes it impossible for anyone person or group of persons to claim to act on behalf of Ndigbo except on the basis of delegation reached by consensus through deliberations and consultations. Even the declaration of the defunct sovereign state of Biafra was not the act of a reckless individual or personal adventure.
On May 26, 1967, the 335 Consultative Assembly of Chiefs and Elders, had drawn the attention of the then military governor of Eastern Nigeria, Colonel Odimegwu Ojukwu, to the then plight of Ndigbo in Nigeria and mandated him to “as soon as practicable”, declare the sovereign state of Biafra.
The important thing is that the declaration of Biafra and struggle to sustain it which lasted for nearly three years was a decision borne out of extensive consultation and consensus of Ndigbo with adequate knowledge of the risks and sacrifices implied in such a decision.
When the struggle for the sustenance of the defunct Republic failed, Ndigbo despite all the structural constraints and the psychology of defeat re-entered Nigeria with vigour, spreading out to all its nooks and crannies in confidence of an inclusive and enterprising republic.
With the Nigerian state faltering, especially since the start of the century and a return to civil rule, under the vicious corruption assault, launched by the predatory political elite, a new wave of restiveness have crept in, empowering hordes of nihilistic traducers masquerading as “freedom fighters”, “ethnic liberators” and other assorted irredentists.
From among the Igbo nation, has emerged the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, with self-proclaimed mandate to restore the defunct sovereign state of Biafra. From the current activities of this group in using terror and extreme intimidation against Ndigbo, mostly resident in Igboland, it is clear that it does not seek to liberate Ndigbo but to conquer Ndigbo in Igboland.
By its series of imposed lockdowns enforced by the use of extreme terror, IPOB with no known structure of organisation and no iota of pretence to consult with any group or community in Igbo land relishes with pleasure the bludgeoning of Ndigbo, especially those residents in Igbo land to bankruptcy and penury.
Every liberation movement in history takes its battle to the enemy and defends its own territory with suicidal determination. Only IPOB makes its own territory a battle frontline, mindlessly destroying facilities and other infrastructures that would rather serve well, the so-called sovereign state it craves.
Imposing sit-in and lockdown orders, depriving Ndigbo of the essential and life-saving economic activities to fend off extreme deprivations emanating from the debilitating hemorrhage of a bankrupt Nigeria state is a total disservice to the Igbo nation.
With a Nigeria state whose extant national security has shrunk to the mere physical security of its political bosses around their fortified exclusive zones of residences, the least expected of the IPOB if any of their messianic invocations about Biafra and by implication Ndigbo is to be taken serious, is to protect and secure Ndigbo in their farms, markets and any other places they are engaged in productive activities.
But a maniacal power hungry and bloodthirsty IPOB seemed only interested in “Biafra” and certainly careless about the Igbo nation and Ndigbo, otherwise in whose interest do they enforce the earth-scorched hard restrictions order enforced by extreme brutality of burning, looting, killing and complete destruction of lives and property.
The defunct Biafra survived for nearly three years on account of the collective determination and sacrifices of Ndigbo through consultations and consensus. And IPOB, who wants now to own what it did not create, does not have the modesty and humility of generating a modicum of consensus through consultations rather it seeks to criminally conquer the Igbo nation through a relentless campaign of terror and intimidations.
Since its leader, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu, was captured by the Nigeria federal authorities, the group has gone berserk and misguidedly turned its venom against Ndigbo, leaving unscratched the Nigeria federal authority which snatched their hero.
By the way, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu who excretes bile and contempt for the Igbo elite and arrogates encyclopedic knowledge of history to himself does not know that Kenya is not hospitable terrain for insurgents. If he truly knows history as he arrogantly claims, he would have known that it was Kenyans who tricked the highly elusive leader of the Kurdistan workers party, PKK, a Turkish insurgent militia, Mr. Abdullah Ocalan, from the Greek embassy in Nairobi in February 1999, with a promise to fly him to the Netherland only to march him to the waiting Turkish jet painted in Malaysian national colours at the Nairobi airport and flown straight to the waiting arms of the Turkish authority in Ankara that has been desperately seeking his capture since 1984.
Mr. Ocalan has been imprisoned since then in the Turkish Island of Mamara, and despite that his armed group has been on and off negotiations with Turkish authority has not seen the light of day since his capture in 1999.
And significantly, the PKK fighters and the huge Kurdish diaspora that finance their operations have not turned on their people as cannon fodder as IPOB has and continues to do in Igboland today. Since the attack of the US embassy in Kenya in1998, Nairobi usually brims with the prying eyes of several national intelligence services, including the CIA, Israel’s Mossad, British MI5, etc.
Any one of them irritated by the antics of Nnamdi Kanu of his bogus claims about networks of international support would have raised a red flag. Had the IPOB leader benefited from the insight of history which he claims to know more than anyone else, he would not have touched Kenya with even a long spoon.
Whether kidnapped, “illegally renditioned” or by other ways his supporters describe his capture, states don’t hand out rose flowers to their most wanted persons when they found them or organise an elaborate party to welcome them, in the form of the Biblical prodigal son who returned home.
Mao in China, Ho Minh in Vietnam, Castro and Che in Cuba all have huge state bounty on their heads for their capture and they scrupulously eluded their state enemies until their revolution triumphed.
For his reckless and thoughtless adventure, Nnamdi Kanu’s IPOB is leaving aside, the Nigeria and Kenya authorities and hounding Ndigbo and locking them indoors causing them to die in deprivations and hunger when they neither send Mr. Kanu on any errand nor were complicit in his capture.
But, should Ndigbo spread across professions, business, politics, academia and all endeavours of life watch helplessly as a rump of self-appointed messiah despoil the land? Nigeria state is vegetating and its security apparatus is simply not up to the task of halting the IPOB marauders.
In a long-standing tradition of self-defence, communities in Igboland should organise themselves in vigilantes to help reform and redirect the many misguided youths involved in the murderous campaign of the IPOB.
udele1: The same way Igbo's are refered to as your people in Nigeria, is how Nigerians are referred to as your people outside Nigeria.
You are using Nigerians Naira, BVN and NIN and claim you are not Nigerian. Continue fooling yourself.
i wonder how you have followers with this sort of reasoning. is Nigeria a tribe? remember we are in a federation. Nigeria doesn't own Igbo land but igbos. and that would be exhibited. Nigeria can cease to exist but the only way igbos would is if you kill every single one of them. use your brain deportee
Skyfornia: Suspected...Everytime suspected. Suspected killll una there!
what they do is that when attacks like these occur, they make sure that the name IPOB/ESN shows up as alleged. that's normal programming. it is repeated severally so that people who are gullible or do not have the capacity to reason would start to think ESN is responsible. another method they use is when news like this come out, their paid miscreant would come out on Naira land especially and keep repeating the same rhetoric. notice them here. when i see things like this i immediately know its a blatant lie. the police are the most useless and very corrupt people that can lie more than the devil. funny enough they and their paid online miscreants think we are stupid.
[s][quote author= post=106952267]Corruption in every sphere of the country.
Can you just imagine this wickedness and calamity Like wtf! Everything to them is MONEY, MONEY, MONEY!!
*HOME TRUTH*
*On every level, Nigerians are the problem of Nigeria*. Read along to understand our reasons for saying so......
I run a manufacturing business and a trading business. The biggest challenge in my manufacturing business is not power, or infrastructure, the biggest challenge is getting honest staff. Everyone we hire appears to be on a mission to steal as much as possible. Inflated invoices, recording less than the actual number of units produced. The worst part of it all is that all the fraud we've uncovered is not done by a single person, it's usually many staff who collude with each other, from production, to sales, to finance, even top management. There was a year I overhauled management 3 times in a year......... But me, I've found a solution sha, I now use Indian management. So competent, so honest and so straightforward. I thought they were expensive at first with all the visa fees, accommodation, house staff, but now that losses due to staff theft have been reduced to a minimum, and efficiency increased, the Indian management has turned out to be cheaper than the previous Nigerian management. Now, all sensitive positions involving money go to Indians. Nigerians are only allowed in non-sensitive positions. I used to criticize companies like Dangote Group that hire so many Indians when there are many unemployed Nigerians, but now, I understand their decision.
My biggest challenge in the trading business is the same, getting honest staff. The form of trading occurs in the open market, and involves staff having access to huge sums of money running into a few millions. I know how much I pay to security companies to provide escorts for the staff, not to prevent robbery, but to ensure that the staff go straight to the bank to deposit the money after the day's sales and not disappear with my money. This money spent on security companies is even enough to be declared as profitWe have to spend on CCTV, biometric scanners and other things that wouldn't be needed if staff weren't looking for the slightest opportunity to steal.
It got so bad at a point that my main criteria for employing staff was no longer competency but honesty. At least, competency and skills can be learnt, but once you're dishonest, you're dishonest.
We always complain of the economy and how there are no jobs. I know people abroad who would have loved to set up job creating businesses in Nigeria but they can't because they can't get any trustworthy person to run it.
I know people in Nigeria with so much money, they want to start factories and other job-creating businesses but they can't because they are occupied elsewhere and can't get any trustworthy person to run the business. So instead of investing in the real sector and creating jobs, they'll just buy treasury bills, while the thieves are shouting no jobs.
Many big businesses would have been born in Nigeria if we could engage in partnerships, but we cant because you can't trust anyone. This is one advantage the Indians and Lebanese have over us in Nigeria. They can pull resources together and do mega-business, unlike Nigerians that because only one person must do everything since we can't partner, end up with small, tiny businesses.
Start a poultry and they will be stealing your eggs. Some will even go ahead to be killing the chickens so that they'll be allowed to take them home.
Start an entertainment/viewing/game center and they'll be pocketing your money. On the days you're around at the business, the money realized will be x10 of the money realized when you're not around..... Because they're eating your money.
Lease out a vehicle to a driver to use and watch as he'll finish you.
Start a restaurant, the same thing will happen. More than half of the total food ingredients will end up in their personal kitchens.
Even ordinary provisions shop, they will find a way to steal.
You'll see them with that their evil, wicked saying "na where person dey work, na there e dey chop, na e make dem dey callam workchop/workshop"...... Just imagine, justifying theft at work.
And you'll see these people point their crooked fingers at politicians when they're not any different. I usually say the reason most Nigerians haven't stolen billions of government money, is simply lack of opportunity.
Again, *On every level, Nigerians are the problem of Nigeria*.
I want us to discuss how this narrative can change. As I speak there are several Nigerians here and institutional investors who would love to invest in Nigeria but the character of Nigerians on the global stage has been a drawback.
There are also franchises from Agriculture to Automobiles who wish to enter the Nigerian Market but holding back because of this.
Cc : Coach.
God bless you for taking time out to air your view concerning this. May Nigeria succeed.[/quote][/s]
Philipponzaghi: As usual everything must be about Ibos. You hate everything else but yourselves.
@the bolded, can you tell us the major role you played in giving the SS the 13% derivation that other regions in the South did not play?
I’m waiting!
[/s] as usual. Igbo hate. Can you please face the topic. If you want to discuss about Igbos then open a new thread as your people have always been doing.
DubaiLandLord: Make the Government let them have access to their meagre 13% jawe
Most of them kuku have nothing to show for it gan sef.
All the noise they are making about the 1963 constitution, when una son dey there, why una no tell am about this 1963 sharing formula? Why should it have to be now una dey remind us?
Now una dey quote one yeye 1963 constitution.
If no b say the economy of Nigeria is presently crawling, I 4 talk say make the Govt. Scrap the derivation... Pata pata, Una go blow oil pipeline for Niger Delta.
The oil in every part of Nigeria belong to Nigeria.
ablejesus26: No I dare say you are the one who do not understand Igbo. In Igboland no one should be silenced for having an opposing opinion Its one region in the country that behaves that way and I suspect you are from there. Because what you wrote up there doesn't sound Igbo at all
In as much as no one should be silenced but you cannot use your voice to be against the Igbos. That's the difference. If his words are against his people then he has to pay. I pray he has sense and stops this now before it's too late. The igbos I know don't have time for him. But when they put their gaze on him, it's a wrap.
I just sorry for that deportee. He doesn't understand his Igbo people well. When Igbos would have time for him, he would change his name from udele to dele. Dem deport am e no wan get sense.
udele1: Nnamdi Kanu and his followers are always making noise about Biafra. They claim that Nigerians hate Igbo's and dont want Igbo's to leave Nigeria.
The same kanu that installed hatred in their hearts also claimed that buhari offered him Biafra with 5 igbo states and he refused. Claiming that he wants to take Igbo's in the SS along.
The same SS states have made it clear that they dont want to be part of Biafra. Its just like you asking yoruba's to have their own nation, and they claim they wont go until benin republic agrees to go with them. Because there are yoruba speaking people in benin.
If truly this biafra that is to be founded by criminals, touts and fraudsters will be the best country in the world, why didnt they use 5 igbo states to set example?
By the time the turn SE to dubai, SS will beg to be part of Biafra. But because they are more interested in the donations that come from agitation, they keep telling stories to maintain donations.
Now, if truly Igbo's want Biafra, the first place this discussion will start is at the national assembly. That is where those representing Igbo's will present their case for secession. That is where they will tell the Nigerian government that Igbo's want to leave.
Now Nnamdi Kanu who is promising this Biafra is friends with Abaribe and Orji uzor kalu. Both of them are senators, but have never mentioned Biafra in the senate.
How can you want a country, and your friends who are in the senate are not talking about the country?
This is the reason why international community does not take the agitation serious. They know that Nigeria is a sovereign state, and if truly Igbo's want to leave, they know which channel to use.
Its like going in front of the british or American embassy and be shouting " Give me Visa".
And when someone passes and tries to tell you that you cant get VISA like this, you attack the person. Call him Saboteur and burn his property.
You keep shouting that the British and Americans hate you, thats why they don't want to give you visa. Meanwhile, you have not applied for VISA.
Then your leader asks to pay money into his account to buy microphone and more speakers, so you can shout more. That the more you shout the closer you are to getting VISA. The people keep paying to his account and shouting outside the embassy.
They tell you that 90% of Igbo's are in support, but they use guns and fear to intimidate Igbo's to obey their "ORDER" . Biafra has not come and they are already giving order and enforcing it. What now happens if it comes?
Imagine the UK standing outside the EU and shouting that they want brexit. They can shout for 100 years and will still remain in EU. Because EU will only take them serious when the matter is deliberated in their parliament and voted upon.
Biafra has not been discussed in the state assembly, talk more or federal.
UK that wanted to leave EU, focused on developing their place enough to be independent. They did not destroy their country, hoping to build it when they leave EU.
In igboland, the reverse is the case. IPOB is destroying igboland politically and economically, hoping that they will rebuild it after it is raised.
Its just like someone who is living in a bungalow, desires to live in a duplex. He does not consider the cost of building a duplex, so he demolished the bungalow.
Only to find out he can't afford to build a duplex or bungalow. He built the bungalow when cement was 50 naira a bag, he was making his calculation based on 50 naira a bag, today a bag is 4000. At the end of the day, he neither has the bungalow or the duplex.
The same SS kanu claims it is because of them that he rejected Biafra, are not doing sit at home or protesting his arrest.
Nnamdi kanu knows that Biafra is a scam targeted at Igbo's. If truly he believes that SS is part of Biafra, how come no SS member is a Director in IPOB world wide limited?
How come all the commanders of ESN are Igbo's from the SE?
Why is ESN only operating in SE states?
Today Igbo's are lossing out politically and economically.
This is a video representation of IPOB and their Biafra agitation.
wordcat: IPOB's problem is Abuja and Abuja's problem is IPOB. Forget all the mushroom tribes like Ijaw or Ishekiri. If not for IPOB, Fulani's for don collect half of Ijaw for ruga. All these their threat na because they know say Abuja dey support anything against IPOB that is why people like Asari Dokubo and Reno Omokiri fit dey yan rubbish.
Joromi1: Why is Nairaland full of children who should have been aborted? You say anything against IPOB they call you APC. You speak against Buhari they call you IPOB. It's impossible for one to be neutral on Nairaland. I spit on your flat head.
stinechykee: You will live long and prosper my brother.Ofcourse they know that Igbos life matters while their own doesn't that is why they always cares about the little death in the South East while they don't care about massacre going on in their region because they see their people as useless,foolish and cow
Paretomaster1: And who opened the gate for you? Someone opened a thread asking dumb questions, and he was faced with fa t, yet you come here asking wawa question too... Gerraheremehn Olodo!
Donzion77: This is definitely a worrisome development. Buses and trains are now the latest targets of these terrorists inorder to score high casualties. For now only travelling by air is safe in Naija. Wait o.. Our Rulers are smart! They obviously knew that terrorists are about to start targeting their two means of moving about- rail and air, that is why they hurriedly paid the ransom to ransom the kidnapped anti aircraft gun so that planes no go dey drop from sky like in Afghanistan
How is that smartness? can you bribe a lion while it lives in your house?
