manchy7531: Shut up your mouth.its a new day.let all this nonsense stop once and forall.Am from IMO and this unnecesary arguement is not needed especailly when it is been championed but some few ingorant kids who don't know what is at stake for umuigbo in nigeria.we are all brothers nevertheless.

In biafra I will advocate for the scrapping of state of origin.Am not against rivalry/competition(because it is natural,even in our homes,brother-brother,sister -sister,sister-brother competition) but it should not go to the extent of abusing eachother.

And as for some idiot non igbos on this thread. Get use to us.we igbos are independent minded people and won't hesistate to defend or voice our opinions on issues.for those who want to translate it to disunity among the igbos, I say to you I dey laugh.

Just attack an IMO person in the presence of his ANAMBRA brother and see what follows and probably know who igbos are.

To my fellow bros,pls lets drop all this arguement,it will do us no good.once I cross benin down to asaba to cross the niger bridge,the feelings I get is "am at home,safe and protected".

Whether awka, enugu,owerri, asaba,umuahia, and portharcourt I feel safe and secured.

MY brothers, nigeria is our enemey,we should be bothered about how to leave nigeria or if we decide to stay in nigeria then, we shloud be bothered about how to make nigeria benefit umuigbo and make sure nigeria at no point threathen our lives,properties and friends of umuigbo.

Nigeria is strategically using igbo brain to develop military drones and hardwear,this is what should belong to biafra.

As for chino and abagworo pls u guys should drop ur swords and let peace rain and stop attacking eachother's state cos it will draw more fighters.it is not needed.

I appreciate the fact that you guys are bold enough to challenge eachother not minding its a public forum but don't attack states, onlike people from the coward and slave linage,who in their pretence of fake unity will not even talk about themselves.

we umuigbo are not pretenders,we will talk, critise,quarell,praise and above all we still love ourselves.we don't care what the world thinks of us.that is why nairaland is littered with so many igbo thread, cos everything about igbos is fun and draws the most veiws and comments.

Haters have nothing exicting about them,they can go and died, we don't care.

EASTSIDAZ: NO..

The monster called Abagworo must be tamed once and for once tonite..

Ofcourse not, you are the devil that would from today till eternity. Now that you have finally disgraced yourself, you can drink otapiapia or better still go and hug the nearest transformer and end you misery. I warned you on the onset but you will not listen, Shame on you!

[quote author=re@lchange]i never even knew there is any place good in anambra state

Abagworo: The gate at the entrance is one of the legendary Rochas gates

Jeez OMG, Owerri is breathtakingly beutiful. Oh I am so proud to be an Imolite. Abagworo please show us more of those fine videos and pics. Wow looks more like Abuja. Shameless Eastdaft AKA Chino must be green with envy, what a pity.

EASTSIDAZ: This is Anambra

Common screw yourself! Do you think we live in Australia? That second pic is certainly not in Anambra state.

@Eastdaft, you are indeed so daft. Now let me educate you, there is no city/town in Anambra that is liveable except for Ommata people scavenging for a living, Onitsha is a jungle, Nnewi is ravaged by erosion while Awka is simply a village. Have you asked yourself why your elite choose to live in Enugu, Owerri and Asaba? Anytime I am travelling by road and i'm unfortunate to arrive upper Iweka anything later than 6pm, I'll simply wait till the next day to avoid being robbed! It amazes me how people manage to survive in that failed town; bad roads and refuse dumps everywere, as if that is not bad enough, you have to watch over your shoulder if you dont want to be robbed or run-over by okada, what a bedlam! All the sane states in the SE have all banned Okada but not Anambra oh I forgot that the state is still backward!....., To be continued.....,

EASTSIDAZ: Nwanne tell the ediots ..never-do-wells.

They have forgoton that 97% of investment owners at Head Bridge drug mart are all imo people and that 2/3 of their population are living in Anambra state. We could send the ediots back home like Fashola is doing in lagos..monkeys

you people are so moronic that you voted against Akunyili simply because she closed head bridge drug market to stop you shylocks from killing Nigerians with fake drugs! One of your sons caused the civil war but when the heat became unbearable you people chickened out and abandoned the people of old Imo, Zik ran away and teamed up with Nigeria while Asika lobbied to be made gov of east central state! While old Imo were busy fighting galantly and dying in the fronts, you saboteurs were busy engaging in attack trade, chai see cowardice laced with greed! To be continued......,

EASTSIDAZ: @ Abagoro, you must be insane. Anambra is the beginning and end of Igboland..now go dive into Onitsha River Niger. Awka is a young state capital and its coming up strongly with the UN Habitat Masterplan. Its one city I have seen with modern edifices, cool and serene with boisterous hospitality in the recent time.

2/3 of imo state people are living and earning a living in Anambra state. 97% of investment owners at Onitsha Bridge Head drug mart are all people from imo state. You should be grateful that we harbored you lost ones. Go to Nnewi its the same story of imo people all over the place.

Its will shock you to know that no single ANAMBRAN family is living in the entire imo state.. But you ediots are all over Anambra making living, making money and enjoying freedom, unlike your place there is kidnapping and criminality from jobless youths.

Shut the fvck up, Awka is the most backward state capital in SE and indeed Nigeria yet you are not ashamed. You people are known globaly for ritual and blood money(ofcourse Okija is the world HQs) you mentioned Otokoto, now I ask you, did he do worse than Edy na n'awgu your kinsman who killed hundreds? I see you have a short memory. You guys are so notorious in kidnapping to the extent that you made history as the only state were a sitting governor could be kidnapped in broad day light! To be continued...,

Biafra rep: its obvious that you are a kid still reveling in juvenile tendencies. Though I will not go ballistic because of the bigger picture, that notwithstanding, I will like to lay bare some facts. Nigerians know those that will pour chalk into capsule and sale it as drugs, just because they want to make money! Nigerians know those that would package coloured kai-kai and sell it as alomo bitters! Nigerians know those that would use their long suffering mother to do ritual just to make blood money! Nigerians know those that would contribute money to build ASPAMDA in Lagos even when the international market in their state is a glorified market square! Nigerians know those that would risk their lives remain in Maiduguiri even when the indegins are relocating just because they wont leave their business! Nigerians know those who claim to be rich yet there state is poorer than Taraba! Nigerians know those who claim to be educated yet they cant pronounce 'ROAD'! .........., If at this point you still do not recognise this state of iconoclastic ironies then you must be from Congo!

LWKMD!

I really pity the husband because even if his abunna is as long as that of the british man who was arrested at the airport for possesing a pole like abunna, I tell you, he will still be suspended in outer space during action and he will be like Moses who saw the promised land but could not enter it, SMH.

sexybash: Lies, i just cant take lies, for me i see lying as a sign of carwordice no matter what you have done i should be the first to know the truth

Lol at Car-wor-dice, three different words yet one meaning

Nightshift: Ekwueme's signature Modotels use to be a cool popular spot for Amebo's of Nigeria 80s/early 90s.

Owerri Modotels looks more gorgeous than that of Enugu, it's actually the tallest building in Owerri standing on eight floors though I heard he just sold it off. Kudos to Ide Aguata, Alex Ekwueme.

banki: its simply totally funny..... our mates are playing serious warm up games with tougher countries and title contenders, we are playing catalonya(that is not a country or a club under fifa)or fc ferense.... the only game weve played that made sense was cape verde and that game exposed us badly totaly badly.....

we are camping in a very cold very very cold pourtugal, in southafrica where the tournament would be held its summer its hot very hot at this time, next thing you wil hear the boys are getting accustomed to the weather,


funny country

give me a break and quit being a pessimist! You call catalonia common but you forgot that they are Spain in disguise. So if SE and SS are to be allowed to play friendly matches under the name of Biafra, as a region in Nigeria, do you think they will be any different in composition from the convential Super eagels? Ofcourse not, simply because over 90 percent of them originate from the region!

This is gross abuse of human right, the victims must go to any lenght in making sure that this barberian sonofabitch pays for damages, anybody who supports this primitive and reprehensible attitude of that animal in government house should have his head re-examined by a psychiatrist. This is the 21st century and not the eolian ice age!

MegaMan2020: When will Southern Nigeria ever stand up to the North? We're ahead of them by a million miles. The Northerners pray that the yoruba and & Igbos never become one. That's their main nightmare. They know it would be over for them!

You equally answered your question, yes the day Igbos and Yorubas unite and forge a common front is the day Hausa/Fulani hegemonic and debilitating misrule of Nigeria will come to an end. It is so annoying and frustrating that a laid-back people with clownish and destructive tendencies whilst contributing next to nothing to the development of Nigeria, have continued to lord it over the progressives. Now is the time to correct malfeances the Hausa/Fulani bequited on Nigeria through the military. The SW, SS and NC must support the SE in their quest for an extra to help correct the imbalance and at same time resist any reduction in derivation accrueing to the Oil producing states.

Basics007: Kenya invaded Northern Somalia when it went after Al Shabab. Maybe it's time for Cameroon to do same. But pls only northern nigerian ni o

its only a militarily superior country that can invade another eg Isreal vs Palestine, USA vs Iraq, Iraq vs Kuwait, Kenya/Ethiopia vs Somalia etc and not a banana rep like Cameroun to invade any part of Nigeria, that would be seen as an act of war and Cameroun will meet their waterloo, even with the distraction of BH, forget about their usurpation of Bakassi, its all international politrics with vested interest of some selfish Nigerians, Nigeria has all it takes to reclaim Bakassi if it really wants to do so.

Prof Corruption: "Cluelessness" of the highest order. If she can't even manage her own steps, how can she manage the economy?

your level of lunacy has got to its zenit, you are certainly in urgent need of a psychiatrist. As an individual what have you achieved? Can you compare your miserable life to that of NOI? Let me refresh your memory that has obviously gone tatters, NOI is the co-ordinating minister, a former world bank director and is rated by time magazine as one of the most powerful women on earth but in all these, does it make her a super human or a tin-god who should not express her emotion? Havn't you seen Obama, the most powerful man in the world dancing in public? Your IQ must be very low indeed ASAP.

I honestly hope that Segun Osewa will call his mods to order because nairaland bigotry and hate campain is getting out of hand and may prompt Igbos to boycot this site. Now if the kidnappers had been Yorubas would the mods have sensationally highlight their names? Are there no yoruba kidnappers and ritualists like the Festac brothers who killed their elder brother for ritual? Is it not myopic to steorotype crime when it transcends tribe, race or creed. Rubbish!

alj harem: What do you think ? Of course you know the answer. I presume you are not one of the Ignorant silly Igbos here on nairaland eg

Go read your history and facts. We have argued this over and over and over. We are tired of telling you block heads the same things again.

Whats are the facts on ground

1. Achebe is a well respected prof but his recent blunder his not only made him look like a lair, he has also lost his credibility but what does he care he would die soon anyway cause of old age ( Not to sound rude)

2. Yes he lied cause Awolowo also cared for Igbo people and not yorubas alone as he pointed out.

3. Awolowo is not a military man but a civilian so their is not way on earth he did a blockade that is propaganda by your elders.

4. The starvation of baifrans was caused by Ojukwu himself because the food meant for women and children, Ojukwu decided to smuggle weapons with it and feed the soldiers rather than the people intended for.

When a lie goes on for too long it because the truth. That is the issue with you all

If you an adult cannot calm down and read and understand using your imagination (cuz it is different to read and another case to picture what you are reading) to picture this demographics of the war, then there is no point.

What I see and I bet everyother Nigerian sees are just bunch bitter youngers trying to fight the war their forefathers started.

why do you people lie with so much ease and yet lack sense? How could Ojukwu(God bless his soul) have ambushed the food for his soldies when it was Red Cross, Caritas, medicines san frontiers and WIC were bringing in the food and drugs and WOULD EQUALLY SHARE IT TO PEOPLE IN THEIR CAMPS BY THEMSELVES? Now i know that Awuruwu is not only a coward but also a pathological lier, he is forever cursed by the blood of millions that died of starvation!

I implore on all Igbos to ignore this thread, it is obvious that the op in conivance with Seun pushed this crap to the front page with the aim of diverting attention from the debate on ''Awos'' (which means frog in Igbo) ignoble role in the civil war as appraised by prof Achebe. DO NOT ARGUE WITH THEM HERE!

CyberG: History can never be changed! Like truth, NO matter how hard you try to hide it, it ALWAYS catches up to you. Nigerians ought to know Ojukwu and his band of secessionist Ibos who lead Nigeria to a war that consumed 3 M+ lives, mostly the Iboz he claimed to lead. You be the judge as he speaks in his own words. Let us have an intellectual debate on this issue Nigerians and not sentimental arguments from which there is no benefit. I will be back!

piece of shit from a psychopat who excaped from Idi Araba! SMH **sighs and walks off**

informatix: [size=20pt]NIGERIANS BE SMART ACHEBE IS BROKE HE WANT TO SELL MORE COPIES [/size]

Achebe broke? This is the most ridiculous text i have read so far, someone that rejected millions of dollars that was offered by 50 cent just to use the name of his book in a movie and you call him broke?

Obi was alarmed enough to give a state-wide, broadcast in which he declared that the state of origin of the strangers was in doubt their not being indigenes of the state. There are now confirmed reports that the people were picked up from Lagos and 'deported' to Anambra by agents of the Lagos State. what is the problem of these nairaland bigots? is it that they lack comprehension/understanding or are they just trying to be mischievous? those people are from the NORTH, in all my life i can hardly recall seeing Igbo destitutes, the poorest of the poor in Igboland would rather sell pure water or push truck instead of begging except the person is physically challenged.Ejikwa'm ogu, odikwa egwu ka ndi ofenmanu ji like ina akpari anyi

kingoflag: Sure, but when it came time for him to manipulate on his own behalf, ordinary GEJ flogged the great IBB hands down. Dude, abeg le ave story. OBJ and Falae defeated their opponents hands down.

Do you think its happen stance or coincidence that the two major parties i.e PDP and AD produced two yorubas (Obj and Falae)in 1999?

Ninapha: . And also because theybelieved OBJ's rejection in his region wd play well for them. U remember OBJ lost in even his constituency. He was also trusted to play card of handing over to d north, yes he did play card only dat he screwed them when he craftly chose Yaradua who was unargueably sick and Jona. But why are they really afraid of an Igbo president.

Onlytruth: @Everest

Who is your best candidate from Igboland, and why?

though there are many of them who are qualified but i believe its ROCHAS ALL THE WAY, he has all it takes to contest and win come 2015, Ndeewo.

fstranger: Dude, that primary was Ekwueme's for the taking. All he had to do was play ball and show up on election day . . . he dropped the ball, BIG TIME. OBJ snatched victory from the jaws of defeat, literally.

Also, OBJ was not the only one interested at that point. There was Atiku, Rimi, Ekwueme and OBJ. And OBJ, underrated as he were, out maneuvered them all. The victory was all the more impressive not because he defeated Ekwueme, really. What made it awesome was the way he out maneuvered Rimi and played Atiku. It was vintage OBJ. Cool, calm and determined. This is someone who just a couple of months prior was in prison. he wasnt even there when PDP was formed and he wasnt part of the founding fathers. That is SWAG, Yoruba styleee.

If they wanted to pacify the Yorubas as you claimed, OBJ wasnt the person to give it to. OBJ already insulted the Yorubas in 1978 and everyone knew the Yorubas werent gonna vote for him.It was no surprise when he decisively lost his home region, the Southwest, to Olu Falae in the general election. Lets get the analysis straight. OBJ earned his mandate through hard-work and street smartness. He defeated everyone around including the wildly respected Ekwueme fair and square. This is important because you guys like to rewrite history. Please stick with proven facts, dont invent yours.

LOL, apparently you dont understand the sentiment and intrigues that happened then, there was a general feeling that the SW had been short-changed by the annulment of the election that was thought to have been won by Abiola, the NADECO and OPC were agitating and in order to calm frayed nerves IBB in conivance with Abdusalami and the Langtang mafia decided to pull their weight behind OBJ using state resources to sponsor him, now they hoped to achieve two things .1. Assuage the SW .2. Enthrone a maleable and unambitious person who they can control from behind and OBJ fit into their picture based on his anticidents (he ruled breifly and handed over to Shagari in 1979 when he could as well have continued or even hand over to Awolowo his kinsman) though this permutation later backfired. This was why a more popular Ekwueme lost at the primaries. Dont forget that the Yorubas sentimentally rejected OBJ in 1999 in preferance to Falae and yet he still won the election. If you are a political neophyte you can ask Falana to expatiate this for you.

[quote author=PROUD-IGBO]^^^The man must be getting senile to have made such a comment.

If Igbos want to succeed in 2015, then they need to seek strong alliances with the South-South and Middle-Belt first and then move on from there; outside of this lies a greedy, avaricious, thieving elite, that see power at the centre as an end in itself, and will stop at NOTHING to ensure it's their 'tribesman' that wins in 2015, or (at the very least) that a Igbo doesn't.[/quote]Nwanne ike gwuru o, amaghi mu ma ishi odikwa Arthur Eze mma. I believe the likes of Rochas has what it takes to galvanise support from the other regions, that is why i pray that he succeeds with Imo so it would be a stepping stone to Aso rock. Nigeria has not been fair to the Igbo race at all and that is partly why we have been going in circles; all motion yet no movement. They have tried to discredit Barth Nnaji simply because he is an Igbo man and his rising profile is making them nervous and now they have seen he is going to succeed, they simply removed him so he wont be a probable threat in 2015 but Nigeria is the worse for it.

dayokanu: ^^ In case you are interested in some history lessons in 1999

Obasanjo defeated Alex Ekwueme in the PDP Primaries.

Olu Falae defeated Ogbonaya Onu in the AD/APP primaries

So nothing was handed over. We fought for it and defeated our opponents. We defeated Igbos like we have always done from the beginning of time
No one is going to hand over anything to you

Its like in 10yrs time the North telling Retardeen Jonathan they seded power to Ijaws.

That would be a lie cos Jonathan defeated Norther candidates in the primaries

Hope you were taking notes

Thank me later

that means you know very little about what happened during the PDP primaries in Jos in 1999, IBB and Abdusalami manipulated the process to make sure that Obj emerged in order to pacify the Yorubas same as AD. Dont take things on their face value, i believe you are an adult. I wont call you a Yoruba man so try and write Igbo properly.
