madridguy: We are both saying the same thing. The Igbos killed everyone knowingly and unknowingly but no single officer from eastern region was touched
Arthur Chinyelu Unegbe was not from the east?
Besides there was no political Crisis in the east the coup happened in the north and south west that's where the crisis was , awolowo started the crisis akintola ran to the north for help the north got involved
madridguy: So Awolowo and Akintola political crisis was the reason Igbo soldiers killed leaders from other region except their own?
Awolowo was in imprisoned in the eastern region he was the easiest to be killed why wasn't he killed? Cause he was the reason for the coup in the first place
madridguy: Thank God Awolowo didn't steal from his bank or anywhere that would have warrant the colonial master to use that to blackmail him and also force him to their side.
Thank God zik didn't start a political Crisis where people were throwing acid on each other, a political Crisis that led to the first coup which led to a counter coup which led to the civil war all started by one person awolowo
madridguy: Don't let us derail the thread, let the elders on this forum enlighten us more about the white man submission.
Can the elders enlighten which is more noble between the position of a ceremonial president for a zik of Africa who fought for the independence of the country and was given a well deserved position that could be likened to the queen of England. or awolowo who started political Crisis in his own region fighting with his own people thrown into prison who was later released and appointed the minister of finance to a 31 yr old military head of state who was placed there by bloody coup plotters who didn't want to rule the country directly but indirectly through Gowon their puppet?
SeraphicWind: Thrash. What is sultry about this massive show of indecency? This young lady was meant to be a role model for up coming girls. The fact she has managed to stay off any scandal is a thing of emulation.
madridguy: After the pre-independence election, no party had a majority in Parliament. Both the Chief Obafemi Awolowo-led Action Group and the Sir Ahmadu Bello-led Northern Peoples Party approached the Azikiwe-led NCNC for a coalition.
For reasons not to be exposed of his corrupt practises Dr. Azikiwe chose to form a coalition with the NPC and accepted the role of ceremonial President, a role that had little power beyond declaring open Parliament and receiving visiting Heads of State.
You tell me the state you are from cause I know for sure you are not from benue state, and if it happens you are from benue state then I will say your mother told you that you are from there you have never been there
benuejosh: Governor Suswam was awarded Mr Infrastructure by This Day Newspaper the same period Peter Obi was governor.
Awkuzu: Ezu River massacre in Anambra during the tenure of Obi is still fresh in our mind.
I'm asking you about your state, I know you are not from benue state cause I have engaged you multiple times concerning benue and you had no knowledge of benue state, so tell me which school did your governor build I'm talking about your real state
benuejosh: Will it light up the whole Anambra? Anyway, congratulations to Anambra for having a working governor.
Well it is still better because at the end of his tenure he will have something to show.
It is better than Peter Obi who couldn't build even a single class room of Nursery school for the many years he was governor and yet wanted to be president.
We really dodged a bullet and calamity in this country.
What’s the business of the rest of Niger Delta in the issue? When he says Niger Delta, he’s including Edo, Delta, Akwa Ibom and Cross Rivers in the matter that’s not their business. Wike should confine his claim to Rivers state.
Talking about Rivers state. There are 23 local governments in the state, with the Ijaws occupying 12 local governments. Obviously they are in clear majority in the state.
LGAs in Rivers State:
Abua/Odua, Andoni, Bonny, Asari-Toru, Akuku-Toru, Ogu /Bolo, Degema, Okrika, Opobo /Nkoro, Egenni in Ahoadawest, Omubaraibi in etche, and Port Harcourt south.
Ikwerre LGAs in Rivers state:
Port Harcourt, Obio-Akpor, Ikwerre, and Emohua.
The Ijaws are in clear majority in Rivers state, while Wike’s ethnic Ikwerres have four local governments. If power has found itself in the hands of the majority Ijaws, they should be allowed to enjoy their turn. It’s nobody’s fault that Wike chose an Ijaw man. He knew what he was running from and what was chasing him. The governor must be allowed to run his state peacefully.
Ijaw is not the majority some of those places you mentioned are not ijaw
Right now Igala people are still dragging Anambra, Enugu and even Ebonyi with Yigbo
Still dragging land with people the conquered ? What type of weak conquerers are they? What is even their population in the midst of this people they conquered? Do they even have a local government in south east?
Emmanuel900: Igala and Benin conquered and colonized Igbo, na Grok you are celebrating talk am
I agree, its amazing how the igala and Benin conquered igbos made both igala and Benin pretty small, they conquered but ended up expanding igboland to Beninland and igalaland
Emmanuel900: I thought you guys claimed you are a tribe of brave warriors, Grok let us know how Igala and Benin conquered and enslaved you. Why are you not ashamed n.y.amuri?
Benin and igala attack small small igbo clans and villages captured them and sold into slavery igbos were not united under one kingdom to claim igala or Benin waged a war on the entire igbos and conquered them is false, igbos were individualistic and every clan stood for themselves , we will feel the shame the day Benin or igala wage a war on the entire igbos and defeat them
madridguy: Nobody want to be in a country with you. Your ojukwu longer throat is what you tagged as people wanted you. If Ojuku didn't rob the CBN in Edo State and some other things he did I don't think anyone will hold you down.
So the one Nigeria war was about ojukwu robbing CBN in EDO ? Lol these are the kind of lies you all grew up on
Thought the other day I read an article here written by another anioma person, who said anioma is economically and politically better off in delta state with other tribes than creating anioma state and zoning it to south east, what marginalization is this person talking about?
Originalsly: People like this are the ones that be bombarding the office. They travel based on luck ... when luck is never the odds in one's favour. These people should never be complaining when they realize luck wasn't on their side. The ones that travel and manage ...are almost always the ones who did their homework before travelling.
Personal experience. Went to pick up a Nairalander tourist at the airport ... visiting for the first time ...she had done her homework very well ... got her description... spotted her with two other females in conversation ... same flight. We greeted...and she said bye to the other two . So I asked her where are they going ... maybe in the same direction and I can give them a lift...since they travelled light. She insisted let's go. So I asked them myself. Would you believe they had no address? ...they came based on luck? ... they had a few phone numbers.... one person picked up. The person doesn't know them too well ...and definitely wasn't expecting them. I handed the phone for them to sort it out ... the convo was very short ...I collected my phone and I bounced . Then I understood why the one was telling me let's go ... and leave them standing. I always wondered what happened to them. Not saying people shouldn't travel ... but do your homework very well ... in this Trump dispensation ... this has to be the worst .... ever.
Well a desperate person has no time for homework, it's called japa (escape) for a reason
fuckJones: Obasanjo, atiku and now ibb make abacha look like a bad man,

aswani: So because Bubu did it, it is OK for Peter Obi to, what warped logic.
Bubu was wrong too. Peter Obi's own is worse as Ndigbo Obidients never stop telling us how backward Ndi North are.
Peter Obi, you have done wrong and we will not take it (to quote Orubebe).
Shame shame shame, shaaaaaame!
Peter obi own is worse as an igbo man? Lol very funny, can you tell me the legal age for a girl to get married in igbo culture? My grandma was 14 when she got married to my grandpa who was a teacher in his late 20s , my mother got married at 18 to my father who was 27 , how old was Regina Daniels when she married NED ? In your culture what is the legal marriage age for girls?
Ismat17: That very good but come to think of it do you check the mouth she was given birth to and the mouth she did her weeding in that 1992 to know she has reached 18
