Nigerians, I hope you now know your status in this country.

Fulani herdsman is free to kill you,but you are not free to kill him.

He is free to abduct your wives and daughters and murder your men, but you have no right to protest or revenge.

He is free to carry ak47, supposedly to protect cows, but you have no right to bear any arm, not even a penknife.

If you dare break the status quo, the police and army will attack you, that is if the fulani herdsmen don't kill you first.

Welcome to the bondage vested on us all by buhari.

Buhari can't deny it, he is happy that fulanis killed nigerians with reckless abandon.

I am dumbfounded to say the least. I cant imagine that this sh!t is happening in my generation. To all of you slaves down south still saying 'one Nigeria' I am sorry for you! God knows dat this diabolic country called Nigeria must come to an end. I feel so sad that smelly, illiterate barbarians are encouaraged to kill others at will.

garfield16:
good for you, but we are still seeing them in Lagos. I know what Lagos feels like when Ibos go home, e.g Xmas


Point is if you people go and develop your area, you wont have time to even think about Nigeria or biafra because you won't care.

Dont try to play smart when we can see through your facade of deception! Ask yourself, why are Igbos in Lagos? The day we separate, banks owened by Igbos will move their hqts to the East, we wont import through Lagos, we wont fly out through Lagos, Igbo owened businesses & companies will relocate here etc. Already Igbos are gradually returning & the tempo will increase when UN steps in with referendum. Nigeria is a contraption that has defied all efforts to work & will soon break up, most likely peacefully because the UN will not want humanitarean crises.

God bless u my Lord bishop, one Nigeria is a scam and a mistaken of 1914, hw u bring people that doesn't have anything in common as one and called one Nigeria



Comedy Nation.senseless leaders and visionless politicians

I'm so happy that an influential & respected icon like a bishop has added his voice to the growing agitation for seccesion! Balkanization is becoming feasible more than ever before. Its even shocking that this contraption called Nigeria lasted this long. God Bless the Bishop!!

Aigbofa:
Exactly, when you look at migration generally you look at where people are going and why. What individuals do when they reach their destination can change.
What direction are Nigerians going? Lagos
Where are they coming from mostly? Iboland.

You can expand that further to where are Nigerians going or where are the migrants coming to Nigeria coming from?
All the other gymnastics you are trying to do does not cut it.

Stop moving in circles, Igbos dont migrate to other places in Africa to do odd jobs, they are averagely always better than the locals & mind you, Igbos are migrating everywhere to conquer & send remittance home so stop being fixated with Lagos!

AmuDimpka:
Niwbtge truth is coming out Oshogbo man...why don't you guys change the roofs

You & Scoleman are giving these ofenmanu people serious thrashing & I cant stop laughing! Those guys are largely poor & averse to change. Globally as time pass & humans evolve economically, old buildings are pulled down or renovated to new ones for better aesthetics except when they are being preserved as museums or relics but in the waste, they keep holding on to eye sore red roofs & mud houses in their so called cities, atimes I wonder if they want to convert their cities to UN world heritage sites! Here in the East, even Brazilian styled pre independence storey buildings are being demolished for more modern buildings.

AmuDimpka:
Well Na mouth you get..but one thing is clear here ..Lagos and Ilorin are not Yoruba land ....if you have the guts to claim it get ready for a showdown

Mile 12 is just sample ...you can claim it on paper but we wey dey ground know how far

Now run back to Oshogbo where you emanated from

Choi, Nna Idi wicked, this is called brutality in mortal combat. Even though what you said may appear ackward but unfortunately thats the sad reality for them!!

Aigbofa:
So, thousands of Nigerian doctors, engineers, nurses and lawyers who are working in Europe and America are there as expatriates because the natives can't do these jobs? Your thoughts are more wacky than I thought.

You are the myopic one here. What percentage of Nigerians in America or Europe are practising Lawyers, Engineers, Doctors compared to those doing unskilled jobs? Have you ever seen Americans, Europeans, Chinese etc doing menial jobs here in Nigeria? Simply because they feel they are too smart for that!

Aigbofa:
People migrate to where they can find better opportunities, that is why the most advanced countries also attract the most migrants. If ibos are coming to other parts of Nigeria it is simply because they can find better opportunities there.

Have you seen the growing numbers of Igbos places like Chad, Mali, Niger, Ghana, Equatorial Guinea, Benin even as far Congo etc does it mean those places are developed? Ofcourse not rather the Igbos know they are smart enough to dominate those 'virgin areas' & even displace the locals through better services & added value for money, the flip side is that this always brings envy & hatred against them by their competitors! These are easily verifiable facts anywhere you are in Nigeria or elsewhere especially in West & Central Africa.

Aigbofa:
People migrate to where they can find better opportunities, that is why the most advanced countries also attract the most migrants. If ibos are coming to other parts of Nigeria it is simply because they can find better opportunities there.

Fiction! Fact is when people migrate to do jobs the natives wont do, then they are seeking greener pastures from a disadvantaged position eg Africans or Indians doing menial jobs in Europe & America! But when they migrate to establish businesses or do skilled jobs & employ locals, they are called expatriates! During my NYSC year, I served in the north were I saw people living in abject poverty in very remote places without eletricity, tarred roads & other modern amenities yet I found Igbos owning d best & atimes only deccent groceries, pharmacy shops, eletrical or vehicle spare spare parts shops & you will see d locals patronizing such places with their widows might while d Igbos smile to d banks with their contributions!!

Alkanoicacid:
So why do they migrate to other parts of the country in masses?

Why do the Chinese & Lebanese migrate to Africa in large numbers? It is natural for people to migrate from areas of cut throat competition to areas they can easily dominate! The Chinese, Lebanese or Indians come here because they assume they are better than us & generally they excel while we work for them! Same with Igbos, they dont go to Kano, Lagos, Kaduna etc to work as labourers, unskilled workforce nor beggers, you see them owning the best supermarkets, furniture companies, boutiques, mechanic workshops, groceries etc & are generally more successful than the natives!! It is folks that are daring, adventurous & smart that travel unlike docile ones. Wether you like it or not, the Igbos, just like the Chinese & Jews are naturally gifted so stop hating & accept a widely acknowledged fact!! I wonder where the Igbos would have been today if not for the draw-back of the civil war.

Did they vote for him during the last election ? We ( the so called almajiris ) voted for him.We will still vote for him again and again coz we trust him .Remrmber politics is game of numbers and almajiri have the number to decide who rule and who don't.

Eeya I'm so sorry for you, you are proud to be a social misfit! The north has over 10 million almajiris(beggers) roaming about, majority of your people(over 90% in some places like NE & NW) are dirt poor, diseased, malnourished, illiterates etc & you all live a hobbesian life, not knowing when the next bomb will go off! I only blame Lord Lugard for merging us with backward & barbaric people like you northerners, ordinarily you are supposed to be worse than Chadians & Nigerians in terms HDI yet we brushed u guys up a bit with our human & material resources, dont worry, the zoo will soon crumble wether through IPOB or fulani terrorists & the dullard will rule over you barbarians. We have nothing in common!!

Movic1:
That's exactly what i meant by southern unity that many fails to understand. Unite to achieve a common goal,then go your separate ways after the achievement.

Its good that my yoruba brothers are now seeing the bigger picture. You (Yorubas) & we (Igbos) may have our differences, which largely borders on rivalry caused by Nigerian unitary system. The greatest mistake ever made was Lord Lugards amalgamation of 1919, the north has remained a baggage or clog on our wheel of progress, most of the positive attributes of Nigeria comes from the south both human & material resources while most of the negative draw-backs comes from the north!

The South as a country would have been a great nation, Lord Lugard finished us when he amalgamated us with the north in 1919. They have remained parasites since the time of Mungo Park, nothing good ever comes from them only death & destruction, they have remained a serious hindrance to our proggress!!

http://dailypost.ng/2016/03/30/el-rufai-denies-slapping-his-deputy-says-i-only-fight-with-my-mouth/

El Rufai is the one who is not making sense, hear what he said; where is the video or pictures? Like seriously, do you call press conference before slapping someone?? Was it not a spontaneous action that must have taken the council members unawares? How can people just wake up one day & claim that he slapped the deputy governor if it never happened? Common, we are not daft neither did we expect him to say the truth knowing politicians penchant for lies even when they are caught on camera, they deny & claim it was a photoshop or printers devil. The midget should go & sit down, he never knew the deputy will the gut to slap him back. The zombies & paid "pay per post" vagabonds are already singing his praises. !diots everywhere!!

Illiteracy indeed is a disease, this mofo thinks he is talking to almajiris. Even if you add all those huts, thatched & mud houses including pigsty's, chicken pen etc in the state, it will never come close to that number! This guy is pathetic, he is just seeking to reap where he did not sow. Moreover, we know the kind of houses they live in, it does not require cement & other modern building materials to build, all they make use of, is water, morter, red earth or baked bricks, bamboo & other local materials that cost next to nothing & manual labour!! Even the cities of Hiroshima & Nagasaki that was destroyed by atomic bombs never lost such number of buildings!! This re.tard of a governor should use his allocation & direct labour to rebuild whatever that was destroyed by boko haram & stop being greedy & covetous of other peoples resources.

OmoIgala:
read my very first post on page 0 if I mentioned anything about tribes, until your brother came running along mentioning tribes.
I dare call you a tribalistic hypocrite yourself.

"He who comes to equity must come with clean hands" If only you condemned or corrected him without making a derogatory/racist sentence then you would have made sense rather you did exactly the same thing you condemned him for!! What does that make you??

OmoIgala:
Nope.
I only responded to him in the language he understands best.

Stop trying to justify bullsh!t, you are a worse bigot than the person you earlier qouted, as if its not bad enough, you keep pretending about it! Good judgement on that evil & sadistic principal & her partners in crime, they are not fit to work in a school environment.

LuveU2:
She is so beautiful and not even photogenic! All necks turn when she passes by.

Sounds like something close to the most beautiful

Wait a minute, did you say she is the most beautiful Igbo girl? Then I'll agree if you mean the most beautiful Igbo gal in your hood!! Are you kidding me? I aint hating neither are my bragging but dude this gal is no where near my baby gal in terms of beauty! I'm Igbo & believe me you are simply embarrasing our ladies(who are famous for their beauty) by presenting this girl as being among our finest! She average at best. Finally, bullying people to accept your weird opinion is infantile.

Dis man get ibo sense I swear. He's getting richer each day

Can't wait 4 him 2 open d cement factory in Edo state

True, Igbo sense, shylock attitude & total government support is a deadly combination!!!

akeensbussy:
when I was working at dana group, I will join staff bus at iyana ipaja by 6am. work close by 5:00pm but as an IT administrator, I close by 6:30 running 1:30 over time with is 750 naira paid the second day. I used that to transport myself home with I will spend like 400 naira then. Though, I will enter house sometimes 11:30 or to 12am, I will wake up 5am again second day

Wtf! Get home by 12am & wake up by 5am!! What a life people live in Lagos!!! I am always grateful that I never settled in there. I hav a sister that lives at Iyana Ipaja & I used to tell her that they live a hobessian life in Lagos. Traffic starts moving at a snail pace as early as 5am all d way from Sango & toll gate towards city centre. Sitting in those rickety danfo buses with non-chalant drivers trying to outwit one another in traffic, d heat, wasted man hours, smelly conductors shouting on top of their voices & d struggle to enter at the bus stops makes Lagos a crazy place to live.

How did I end up as a citizen of this despicable country called Nigeria. If I have North Korea's president number, I'll simply beg him to nuke us!! Just Negodu, so after embezzling our money & rendering us hopeless, they will still go ahead to snap the few jobs left for their children & relatives while the masses keep looking for non existent jobs five years after graduation. Chai, I pity poor Nigerians because your destiny, present & future has been mortgaged!!

0YorubaParapo0:
lol when they start pulling irrelevant links, you know they're grabbing at the last straw.
Yoruba states must be better than igbo states because igbos keep running from their region to the SW. What's hurting igbos is that no one cares about the SE, that's why they're begging investors.

Stop decieving yourself, Anambra state alone has far more investors/enterprenues than the whole SW put together & if you doubt me, for every one yoruba investor/manufacturer you mention, I'll mention 2 Anambra people!

janellemonae:
Who wants to live wt parasites? I really want you to leave nigeria. Goooooooood riddance!

Lol, go & sit down my friend. As if you will not die of heart attack the moment Biafra is declared! Who wants to be like Niger or Chad!

janellemonae:
I thot u said northerners are the parasites.
Now yorubas are the parasites.
LMAO! And yet we ALL in nigeria know that it is igbos dt will never seat in their land but go to the north and d southwest looking for money. And not just lagos and abuja. They are in kano, kaduna, ibadan, akure. You will never find any other region in large populations like dt in ur SOUTHEAST. Even southsoutherners wld rather stay in porthacourt/benin.
Please WHO is the parasite?

The same way Indians, Chinese, Lebanese, Filipinos etc will live their countries & come to Nigeria as expatriates or investors is the same way Igbos go to other parts of Nigeria & beyond! I have been to parts of the North & West & I tell you that most of the biggest super markets, plazas, hotels, factories etc that are not foriegn owned were built by Igbos! They dont go to other areas to do menial jobs like you guys, Igbos are investors & are averagely always better than the locals!!!

Standing5:
Your ignorance is frighthening indeed. Have you heard about white farmers policy of most African nations like Zimbabwe, Gambia, Zambia, SA? It involves white farmers from Britain, Netherlands, Portugal, and other advanced nation sending trained citizens to those African countries to practise mechanise farming inorder to export back to their countries. Keep massaging your own ego forcefully. It changer nothing. The advance nations you mentioned up there where able to hold on so far because of their diversificavion during the days of abundance. Russia Saudi Arabia and co are in tight corners already. Your may need to research the term "urban farming"

Indeed I actually underestimated the extent of your ignorance, to worsen your case, you have refused to be educated on matters that are beyond you so I have decided to stop wasting my time try'n to enlighten you since you are beyond redemption. I hereby throw in the towel, Thank You!

Standing5:
Level of education and IQ low? You must be kidding. Keep parading your worthless oil. The North has her most basic needs catered for, it is the south who depends on them. Go read about USA's recession of the 1930 thereabout. It got to a stage the farmers where virtually the onlx ones having good enuf meal. Some people were ready to serve the farmers in various capacity but were rejected as the skill and product they offered weren't critical to survival. You still behind the North in terms of dependence on other region. Apply your IQ and education, then google ''the great depression in America'' and then read it up.

Smh at your foolhardiness! S.Arabia, UAE, Qarter are all desert wastelands but oil rich, now how is their economy? Can you compare them with Congo that have vast arable jungle? Even the South is doing well in terms of Agriculture, industry, education, human resources, access to sea etc! Stop deciev'n yourself, North will be impoverished as a country!

Standing5:
Your ignorance is frigthening. With the rate oil earning is going down the north has it most critical needs met. The south has oil of which, when sold can't handle their feeding as well as the North can feed themselve. Before oil came didn't we tar roads, buy cars, build house and had more food? Oil can dry up anytime. Use ur mind and stop seeing the south as a source.

Your IQ & level of education is obviously limited in scope! Your population is said to be in excess of 80 million, about 10 million are destitutes that beg for a living, a staggering over 75% lives below poverty & the populace are largely illiterates with very basic skills to operate.

Standing5:
You are the one not getting it here, you are talking of the 10% who depend on direct earning by relation or self from the government. They are mostly farmers and artisans and engage in production of things that are most crucial to survival. Without patronage from oil money they could have exported their product to Europe and Asia. The North is easily 10 times better than the south.

So tomatoes, onions & the likes will provide enough money to pay civil servants, build roads & flyovers, import cars, petroleum products etc. Why are they not exporting now? The 10% are even the ones feeding the poor talakawas & almajiris. How big is your IGR which is a pointer to how big your GDP is. The North is simply a baggage of liability weighing us down!

Standing5:
so if the south stop buying the north minimizes its losses first before any other thing. That makes them secure in terms of feeding themselve. Can you say same of the south whose scarce or non-existing fund will be glaring. As long as you buy from them you are dependent on them more. Fact!

You still do not get it, what is the value of their economy without oil proceeds? have you seen how most parts of Nigeria became grounded just because of reduction in allocation & what do you think will happen to the northern economy the moment allocation entirely stops going to them?? How successful are countries like Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, Chad, Mauritania, CAR etc that lie approx on the same lattitude with Northern Nigeria?? The South will have more oil income to go round & remember that ECOWAS made free movement of goods posible which means that Northerners will still try to bring their goods down here to make more profit. U guys should be grateful to the South!!!

ChoCandyDiamond:
The man is just a politician looking for cheap popularity among northerners, APC continue to blame the continue Nigeria economic woes on drop in oil prices and he is talking about food, The north cannot do without SE or SS, they know that one, if not let them grant Biafra to those who are agitating for it

He is just preying on their ignorance, knowing fully well that majority of them are illiterates. Educated folks will just be laughing at their gullibiity because Ben's gimick is already working atleast some juviniles are already praising him here on nairaland! Poverty rate in the North Varies from 75% to 90%, with such little purchasing power, no middle class, rife illiteracy, no Forex, lazy populace, insecurity etc, the North as a country will definitely rank among the three most poorest countries in the world.

Standing5:
Going by the bold parts up there, how will they suffer starvation if they already food in excess? Is It your imaginary oil and its 'imaginary' value that's best imagined you want to trade in exchange for food? Stop being delusional man.

There is something you dont understand, a huge fraction of the tomatoes, onions, cabbage etc grown in the North gets spoilt before they are consumed because of glut during peak production, that farmers in the North are able to make optimal profit is because of the demand from the South! The moment South stops buying, a lot of farmers in the north will either liquidate due to losses or they will significantly scale down on production to minimize losses. They dont even have storage facilities to preserve them, its even one Igbo man that built the largest tomato paste factory in SSA here in Lagos to help them market their products!!
