You are the one arguing, i am discussing facts. You feel an army is doing better while millions of the people they're fighting for died. What are they fighting for? Would you say the Nigerian Army is doing better than boko haram and bandits if they kill and kidnap thousands of Nigerians and injured just 1 Nigerian soldier? Are you thinking at all or just chest beating and regurgitating folklore?
Imagine Ukraine losing millions of its citizens and billions in infrastructure to a needless war, and someone is saying that Ukrainian soldiers are doing great since only 100 soldiers died?

Ok then, in conclusion we are not joining the Nigerian army, it's our choice, give the slots to Yoruba or Hausa Fulani, it's simple

Edimakan:
So he's supposed to allow his elder brother rip them and enjoy the money with his wife?

Rip (them) so why is it only Peter? Where is Paul?

Image123:
So what was the point of them "doing better" again?

It's like you forgot what your argument is about ? or you just feel go getting replies on a thread you opened?

Image123:
Interesting, so they did well defending themselves but not igbos.

The millions of igbos who died were children women and the elderly in camps who died from starvation not bullets , the soldiers themselves were starving on the battlefield, so what defending igbos are you talking about?

Image123:
So they won, or what's the meaning of doing better? How many igbos died needlessly in the war?

They defended themselves with all they had and survived the genocidal war lunch against them for 3 yrs without food and weapons, cause they were better on the battlefield, the question of how many igbos died in that war is different from how many igbos soldiers died in that war

Image123:
Lol, but they did better. Hmmm.

Of course biafran troops did better and those who were at the battlefield with them attest to that

nairalanda1:
You got lucky then...by 1967, the Nigerian army had lost a lot of officers, and had to train a lot of raw men from scratch. The Biafrans had a lot of good experienced officers (Madiebo, whose book I have read...shout out, and Azuchia)..so they were able to move forward..

But by 1968, numbers told, and the truth was that the Biafran army was fighting against a Nigerian army that was growing. It may lose some battles due to inexpreince (and joke officers...I'm looking at you M.Muhammed)., but they could replace men and materiel easily, while once Biafra lost Port Harcourt in 68, that made supplies difficult. Once the air war was lost, that even worsened things.

IN a war today between Biafra and Nigeria, there are far more trained tropps from other tribes (the middle belt always has large numbers in the army, they are the ones who really run the army, forget Hausas), and fighting against a Biafran army that has limited numbers. It would be a washout.

Gain experience from your enemy, learn from him, so that you can beat him'

I don talk my own.

My friend biafran civilians fought that war and they did far better on the battlefield than the Nigerian troops, biafrans lacked food, weapons even boots to wear , while Nigerian troops had everything in excess from food, weapons, heavy artilery mortars, rocket launchers. Plus Russian fighter jets helping them from the air , hundreds of thousands of troops plus troops from Niger republic and Chad , Nigerian troops were not that good on the battlefield they were just better fed and armed

nairalanda1:
So when Biafra happens, you won't have enough trained cadre of millitary officers.

Igbos are naturally brave, those that fought the biafra-Nigeria civil war were ordinary civilians but with just one week training they did very well on the battlefield without food and weapons for close to 3 yrs

Image123:
Of course, you forget that you hate the country more.

We will not join the military, nobody will force us to do a job we don't want, give the spots to south west or north or middle belt

Image123:
Same way South East leaders did chest beating some couple of decades ago and are now gaslighting the whole nation, don't learn okay.

South East leaders? Who are south east leaders and what did they chest beat about?

There is nothing to learn nobody can force us to join the military to fight for a country that hates us

Image123:
This is your problem, you don't think far or ahead. In few years again, there'll be more generals and major generals from other regions. And the natural thing is for the leadership to be chosen from among them. Then the representatives of those taking foolish decisions will stage walkouts and complain bitterly to CNN, and repeat.

Natural thing? So the many areas south east is left out is because they lack professionals in those fields? Are things done in Nigeria naturally? What do you even mean by natural thing?


We don't want anything to do with military and we don't complain about military leadership give it to the south west

Image123:
Thank you to the current FG. i hope that the said regions will not ignore this plea as usual, and cry marginalization in the future again.

South West should take the spots giving to south east we don't need it

jamafa:
Because he doesn't support Ipob 😂 and Obi supporters 😂

Yes , but why have you all who were clapping for him and calling him the smartest man in igboland abandoned him?

helinues:
Why should Azikwe want to become premier of Western region when he was from Eastern region? Reason it logically should incase you never bother to

As for Kemi Bajinatu, I have told you severally to stop making false allegations against me which are always bursted but you no dey get shame.

Have you ever seen on any of the thread related to the UK Kemi? We don't play petty politics like you lots

There was no time zik contested to be the prime minister of western region, rather zik contested for a seat in the western house of assembly from Lagos which he won under NCNC , the person contesting for prime minister under NCNC was Yoruba not zik , so stop the propaganda
You might say why did zik contest for a seat in the western house of assembly, he did cause he was a pan African, he believed in one Nigeria not tribalism that's why
Mallam Umaru Altine,a Fulani from sokoto was elected as the first Mayor of the City of Enugu, the capital of eastern region with no tribalism

KennethOkonkwo:
All these things are only happening in you Igbo people deluded and Narcissistic head!

Same for you Yoruba's

I pity those who always shout our oil, I Abuja was built from scratch with oil money

Mikespecialone:
This guy don give our eastern cousins mouth to talk ……

You have bad mouthed easterners to the point you are suffering from guilty complex

Hmm repented bandits and terrorist

Mynd44:
I don't necessarily like Wike but the judgment even though it is temporal is wrong.

The freedom to associate and gather peacefully is a human right, it is democratic and a judge making this statement is touting with people's rights

But wike had the power to approve or disapprove political parties from holding rallies at the stadium in port Harcourt?

Krismas:
U don't know anything about boxing or human psychology. U just on NL running ur mouth unnecessarily.
contradicting yourself shamelessly, in order to sound knowledgeable. We've not even considered how absurd the $500 fight purse was. And the implication of the boxer's action, which was tantamount to trying to under compensate his own manager.
I guess, its as they say, on d day a man dies, he will do everything wrong!
So, i cannot reject enough all your flip-flop opinions,
Keep your jaundiced views to yourself, cos i strongly disagree with them.
Bye

Good, a man who took a 500$ fix match can not be threatened by anyone, he took the fight to lose for a paycheck anyways , if his life was truly threaten over a 500$ fixed match he could have simply withdraw from the match, or reported to the authority , I still stand by my words nobody threaten him , his mother just wants public sympathy with no evidence

Keep whatever you have to say to yourself let me keep mine, I didn't mention you in the first place

Bye

Krismas:
Nonsense
What prove are u going to present to any control board that you were threatened? Were you forced to fight or what? What foolish threat are you then talking about afterwards? Its the manager that helps the fighters get a fight and also promote it for a fee. The manager told you to skip the secondary fight arrangement, yet you went without him to the fight. And now your FOOLISH argument is dat the fighter should have sent a mail to the manager to report a threat? Very daft.
War and sports are similar in dat people DIE in both.
And death premonitions are similar, whether in war, sports or shopping. If you ever SUDDENLY feel like calling your mum to report anything on security, then desist from any activity you have on schedule. Its a bad omen.
The sport bodies will not investigate threat. I figure they will check why the fight had no doctor on call, how a 40yr old got a fight license, whether the deceased had underling medical issues dat were ignored, whether he and his opponent were checked for PEDs etc. You have no right to say the mother lied by saying she got a text from the son. Its a verifiable claim. What are going to do if she shows the text?

The threat never happened that's my argument, I repeat lies to gain public sympathy, if there was a threat the 40 yr old man knows who and where to report to, I repeat it never happened

Sport is not war

highchief1:
I have too sir.dont u have?Abi the one u have is not longer money?

Good you have money, why are you triggered to hate someone for talking about his own money? Someone into showbiz for that matter

omooba969:
He truly needs additional income to support his Kenyan baby-mama.

More mouths to feed...lol

He needs additional income or he is just trying to tell burna boy anybody can sing , all you need is to have money and have the right connections

highchief1:
I hate this guy sha.the only thing he knows how to say is money money money.fat people are always foolish.

And he has the money, money is power

Krismas:
So what help are u anticipating from the manager via text? Who goes to a fight without a manager? Manager already told you not to take the fight, what else do you want the manager to tell u?
All in a bid to prove a fake point, see how ridiculous you are sounding?
Incase u don't know, when soldiers are in life and death situation in battle, the first person they call upon, is their mother.
U will see hardened men crying for their mother b4 they die. Its just instinctive.

Can you read what you wrote again so you can realize how stupid you sound?

You are comparing what happens in sport to war ? Which sports makes it legal for a man's life to be threatened to the point of life and death ?
If his life was threatened and he informed his manager, the Nigerian boxing board of control (NBBC) is there for his manager to report the case to, the Ghanian boxing authority (GBA)is there for his manager to report the case to , or even without his manager he himself could have reported the case to the authority himself, this is simple logical reasoning
To you the best thing to do is text your mother and cry oh mama I'm in a life and death situation, I'm behind enemy line with no way out, oh goodbye mama,we meet in heaven 40 yr old pathetic clown

Ok he is dead now is NBBC and GBA not working together to investigate what really happened? Shut up kid

Krismas:
Why will u message a manager, who according to u was left behind? But u can message a mother for prayers in difficult position. Are u not contradicting yourself?

I will message my manager if i made a bad choice without him and my life is under threat no matter what he is in a better position to help me cause he knows the business, I will never message my mother in such a situation cause there is nothing she can do, prayer is just wishes , you can't pray yourself out of difficult situation you work your way out of it

Krismas:
Now, answer your own question. why should he have message his manager? You just running your mouth. u don't know boxing

He should message his manager cause his manager is in a better position to help him than his mother at home who knows nothing about boxing, it's common sense

Wimkeh:
So you think that he couldn’t have sent it to both of them and that it’s only his mum that is speaking out cause she carried him in her womb and therefore has more connection to him than the manager?

Useless ape

His manager said the man failed to meet his weight class he was overweight and his match was cancelled, instead of him to return to Nigeria he made a deal to fight out of his weight class for 500 dollars without informing his manager , boxers who fight for paychecks fight fix matches he was actually fighting a fixed match who will threaten a fixed match boxer?


Plus if indeed his life was threatened what will his mother do ? If your life is threatened in a foreign country the best thing to do is call your mother? Why not your embassy?


Don't be a sentimental Ape

Krismas:
Is his manager not supposed to be by his side in Ghana? Why will he need to message his manager?
March fixing is real in Ghana 100%

His manager was not with him , his manager said the man couldn't fight in his weight class cause he was overweight instead of him to return to Nigeria he went and had a deal to fight out of his weight class for 500 dollars paycheck without informing his manager

Kog45:
You are a highly insensitive person. If the deceased were your brother, is this what you will say? May God forgive you.

I would have said same thing if he was my brother, why send messages to his mom instead of his manager or the Nigerian embassy in Ghana? If your life is being threatened in a foreign country the best thing for you to do is text your mother?

Peter MBAH deserves a spot in the top 10
