That means we Wild Wild Wild West are the true revolutionary heartbeat of the nation.

Let other region start their own revolutionary protest now against the current hardship. Should it always be the Yorubas starting a significant protest in the country?

After all, you people call us cowards. Then let the brave ethnic fire up the country in a burning protest.

The seizure is too insignificant for the army to be jubilating on. What happens to the large caches of sophisticated guns being used by terrorists East and North? Why are the armies not tracking their importation and seizing them?
Politics › Historical Perspective Of Hatred Between Igbo And Yoruba. by membranus(op): 11:21am On Jul 16, 2023
HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE OF HATRED BETWEEN IGBO AND YORUBA.

I had the privilege of attending some meetings of the Yoruba and Igbo Leaders. I was not a leader but a youth who knew how to wash his hands.

At one of those meetings in Owerri, I think in 1989, I think, I listened to Uncle Bola Ige and other Yoruba Leaders take the likes of Mbakwe, R. B. Okafor and others to the cleaners when the Igbo said the Yoruba were betrayers, citing that Chief Obafemi Awolowo led them into secession with a promise that if the Igbo left Nigeria, the Yoruba would follow suit.

They accused him of not following up on his promise. Trust Uncle Bola Ige! He pointed to Chief Mbakwe and said, "you were there in the meeting between Awolowo and Ojukwu as I was. Is that statement correct?".He turned to two other Igbo and two Yoruba Leaders who were at that meeting and asked the same question, saying he had transcripts of the meeting between Awolowo and Ojukwu.

They kept quiet while the Yoruba Leaders affirmed that Awolowo never promised to follow the East into secession. What he said was that if the Igbo were "driven" out of Nigeria the Yoruba would take it seriously and reassess their own position. Igbo Leaders DID NOT CONTEST this version.

Then Chief Bola Ige threw in the clincher! "Who are you to accuse the Yoruba of betrayal?" he roared, and continued:

1. At Independence Awolowo offered a joint government between the NCNC and AG, with Zik as Prime Minister and Awo as Finance Minister. Awo and Zik "were still negotiating" when it was announced that Zik would be President in a coalition with NPC of the North. The East then collaborated in destroying the West and sending Awolowo and his leutenants to jail!

2. What of the 1965 elections which the West and the East agreed to boycott? We met all night and reached agreement about 3am on the day of the election. In the morning, while the Yoruba boycotted the election, the Igbo went to vote

3. After the 1979 elections Yoruba (UPN) and Igbo (NPP) Leaders were still at the negotiating table for a coalition when to their surprise, an announcement was heard that the Igbo (NPP) had agreed to a coalition with the North (NPN).

4. After the 1983 elections, 1979 repeated itself. Not giving up, Awolowo reached out to Azikiwe again for cooperation. Talks started and they met in Benin where Awo pleaded passionately that only a collaboration between The Igbo and the Yoruba could save Nigeria. They didn't reach agreement but promised to meet again. Before the next meeting, the Igbo had again teamed up with the North.

Uncle Bola paused and then continued "we can go on and on. So how dare you accuse the Yoruba of betrayal? How many Igbo have been killed in Lagos, Ibadan, Akure, Oshogbo (he mentioned other Yoruba towns)? You have your businesses in the West and went to Western schools. Yet you count the Yoruba as your enemy. You get killed in Kaduna, Kano, Bauchi, Zaria etc and have your goods looted yet you consider the Hausa/ Fulani your friends. It's your choice. If you want to be slaves for ever, we can't help you"

I had never been so scared in my life. I thought the roof was going to fall. There was a pin drop silence and no Igbo dared interrupt Uncle Bola Ige because he was telling the truth. The Yoruba Leaders ended the meeting at that point and left. I hope Chief C. O. Adebayo's memoirs will give more details of those exchanges.

Now to make three points from all this:

A. The Yoruba have been stretching their hand across the Niger for a handshake for a long time. The Igbo refused to take it for a long time until recently

B. Many Igbo Leaders of the 70s, 80s and 90s deliberately perpetrated the legend of Awolowo's role betraying them into the civil war and his role in prosecuting the war, to rally the Igbo population behind themselves. The Igbo agreed on Yoruba hatred than on any other issue. So it was the fabric that held them together for a long time

C. Time heals all things. Many Igbo reading this will be hearing for the first time that their leaders of old knew for a truth that Awolowo did not break his word to Ojukwu as alleged.

And to think of it, EVEN IF OUR PARENTS QUARRELLED, SHOULD WE THE NEW GENERATION CONTINUE THE SAME WAY ?.

ITS TIME TO COME TOGETHER AND MAKE THE HANDSHAKE ACROSS THE NIGER WORK FOR THE SAKE OF OUR PEOPLES AND NIGERIA.

Travel › Re: Seychelles Places A Ban On Nigerian Passport Holders by membranus: 6:44pm On Jul 09, 2023
Touchypro:
Simply put they banned Nigeria cos it's convenient for them. Few people commiting a crime doesn't make the whole country bad. This is how you guys were saying UAE banned Nigeria cos of criminality until it turns out it was just a diplomatic issue between the two governments.

No matter what you say I've had several accounts of black people that got mistreated in Seychelles and some of them swearing not to go back, stop making excuses for people that don't want you. Nigerians commit crime in the United States but thousands are still allowed into the country every year. Seychelles knows that it is very convenient for them to ban Nigeria you are here justifying them.

People have prejudice against black people it doesn't matter what you want to say, as much as we have bad Nigerians we have good ones making us proud. If a country chose to focus only the negative side it's their business. Mind you I'm not in any way abating criminality but we shouldn't always condemn ourselves based on what someone else says.
You are in every way abetting criminality with your write up here. And I am even thinking if not you, or some of your close acquaintances are involved in devilish drug business.

Why? because your tepid water argument that countries like Seychelles, Indonesia, Dubai, or even India should continue to leave their countries easily accessible to Nigerian drug barons who are destroying their citizens lives by providing easy means of acquiring hard drugs. That by restricting visa access to criminally minded Nigerians they are just being racist. Why did you not count them racist for all the donkey years behind in which they have granted Nigeria this free and comfortable visa opportunity?

If you are a landlord in a safe neighbourhood, and suddenly you noticed hard drugs sellers invading the neighbourhood influencing and selling drugs to the young kids in the neighbourhood, will you fold your arms and allow them to destroy your own kids too?

So these countries have every rights to protect their citizens from the corrupt influence of Nigerian evil people who are bent on seeking wealth by hook or by crook, not minding whose life is destroyed.

Unfortunately you will not hear their Ezekwesili, Chinamanda, or Yesufu talk about the carnage going on in their homeland. But let them hear Igbo matter in Lagos, or Tinubu’s mandate, their tribal antenna will go up, spewing every tribal bigotry they can muster.

But do they love their tribal land? No. They just hate Nigeria.

Now that Buhari is not in government anymore, the Igbos have turned their hatred from the Hausas to the Yorubas because of Tinubu. But they have forgotten one thing, that the Yorubas are not as quiet online as the Hausas, but are more vociferous than them. So until the end of Tinubu rule it is fire for fire. Let us see who will relent.

Aisha Yesufu is an Igbo woman, converted to Muslim by marriage, so what do you expect from her.

Like Ezekwesili, like Yesufu, like Chinamanda. They are fighting for the same regional agenda of hatred to other Nigerian tribes.

MondayOsunbor:
Indomie generation una know All State Bank or Crystal bank? All State Bank was one of the most innovative bank in its days but merge or shallowed by UBA. It was so Inovative that UBA bank let its management run all it's retail banking
It was not All State Trust Bank that merged with UBA, but Standard Trust Bank (STB) in 2005/2006. And STB was not so innovative as to allow it to run UBA's retail banking system. UBA already had a robust retail and corporate banking systems before the merger, which therefore made it one of the best Bank in Nigeria before STB incursion.

The truth is STB under Elumelu, while the former UBA Management were sleeping, aggressively pursued a backdoor massive stock purchase of UBA shares, and therefore dislodged the old management, having the larger shareholding. To gain this top shareholder status, Elumelu also received proxy ownership of Obasanjo's shares in UBA, which Obasanjo cunningly collected from Bello, the former UBA MD, because of Bello's international money laundering issues.

If I want to be giving her money every month then I will be adding her money in security votes, not give her appointment.

Oya, Tinubu people, come and see that you have been lying all along. Stop selling lies.
But Rotimi Akeredolu gave his son a cabinet grade appointment in Ondo State Government, and he is getting away with it. So what's stopping Adeleke from doing. Moreover he has done so by appointing his sister in law as a commissioner.
Politics › Re: Peaceful Processes To Enabling The Biafran Secession by membranus(op): 9:55am On Jul 08, 2023
onumadu:
OP, your post is dishonest and malicious in intent.
For example, your No 5 and 6 points should be reciprocal and commutative, meaning that all Igbo money and assets in banks outside of Igboland in Nigeria must also be repatriated to Igboland prior to the referendum.
All taxes and natural resources that accrue from Igboland must also cease to go to Nigeria prior to the date.
Also, all non-Igbo must leave all parts of Igboland prior to that referendum.
Finally, all money sent by Igbo citizens abroad must go straight to Igboland and not drop anywhere outside Igboland inside Nigeria prior to the referendum.
There are others, but I can live with the few I cited above.
Once all that is done, your No 5 and 6 points become fair and without malice.
Deal?
Deal. It is all implied according to the Law of Reciprocity. But then let's see which tribe will lose most.

Politics › Peaceful Processes To Enabling The Biafran Secession by membranus(op): 11:14am On Jul 07, 2023
Asimiyu Abiodun Ladepo is an expert in Military and Security Affairs, and is based in the United States. He writes:

“Nobody should be trying to discourage Biafrans from leaving Nigeria. We should make sure we are fair to them by making the process bloodless:

1. Pick a date for secession.

2. Draw boundaries for the intended country. I assume it will be named Biafra.

3. Ensure all communities contiguous with or within 10 kilometers radius of the drawn borders agree to be included or excluded.

4. Compile a list of all Igbos all over Nigeria.

5. Understand that secession means every Igbo based all over Nigeria MUST return home to live in Biafra on or before the date set in No 1.

6. Understand what No 5 means is that all Igbos in the Federal and State services in Nigeria MUST forfeit their employment perpetually and return to Biafraland prior to No 7.

7. Conduct a referendum (funded by the protagonists but witnessed by Nigeria and international observers) on whether or not to secede. We must ensure all Igbos have a say in their self determination. No Igbo person should be railroaded into Biafra if they choose to not go. And they can't remain Nigerians if Biafra succeeds.

8. If secession succeeds, Biafra can go without firing one single shot.

9. Biafrans will now have the same status that all other West Africans have with Nigeria. They can only travel to/through or reside in Nigeria according to Nigeria's immigration laws. They can only do business or invest in Nigeria according to Nigerian laws.

10. If secession fails, it has failed forever. Anyone who brings it up again will be charged with treason”

#COPIED.

This is to let the Igbos across the nation know that you can't eat your cake and have it also.
