Igboid:
What stats exactly?

You are becoming emotional now.

Telecoms stats - identity of active registered lines.

The SW ranked highest

There are so many disgusting slaves in this thread.

Expatriates keep flooding Nigeria.

Returnees are seriously yearning to be back home.

Lebanese and Indians would do anything to be awarded Nigerian citizenship.

During general elections, we know those who stay glued to Channels TV like their lives depend on it.

Where I stay in Nigeria, there we could have light for days unending. Government water runs inside my house fairly regularly. There is no traffic. The roads are tarred. The streets are clean - swept everyday by dedicated sweepers. Food is cheap. Rent is fair. Education is cheap. Life is easy.

What more can I ask for

Stop judging Nigeria based on some cities.

Some places in Nigeria are far better than abroad...

Igboid:
Ask Nigeria.
They will not publish the result of state-of- origin, only state of residence.
They can even use BVN like you said to determine the population of ethnic groups, but they wouldn't.
The result of such I suppose would not be favourable to the owners of one Nigeria.

They won't publish it because of perpetual ranters like you.

Yet several stats continue show that the Igbos are least populated of the big 3.

Coldie:
This can't be used as yardstick.

Me I dont have neither PVC nor Nin

But you have BVN.

FYI, BVN has been linked to NIN.

hammerP:
SO IGBO WAS FIRST PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA AND SIERRA LEONE.


DO U NOW SEE WHY LUGARD REFERRED TO US, AS THE GREAT IGBOS.

I get am before no be property...

Igbos may indeed have been great before the civil war - comparing Igbos of now with then...

Igboid:
Nope.
PVC is calculated based on where a voter registered.
If I'm an Igbo and registered in Bida, it would be counted for Niger state and not Anambra.

When registering for PVC, they collect your state and local government of origin.

Same goes for BVN and NIN registration.

So how won't they have an idea of ethnic group population

hammerP:
The Igbos in those places are indigenes.

I think one of them was Sierra Leone President.

Okoro may be Urhobo

Even then, the Igbos there are quite negligible unlike the Yorubas.

Igboid:
Doctored Census results you mean?

By the way, recent census results only have states of residence and not ethnicity or even state of origin.

Sure, whatever doesn't favour the Igbos is doctored.

Come on, state of residence is still a proposal. What we have currently is state of origin even on our PVC.

hammerP:
we have igbos in Colombia, Brazil and Sierra LEONE TOO.


Even Liberia, so wat is your point again?

Those ones are immigrants.

The Yorubas I am referring to in those places are indigenes/citizens.

Igboid:
We lost millions in slave trade to Americas and recovered well.
We are Igbos. Our society is built to quickly regenerate lost population, we have Omenala in place to ensure that.
Moreover, not many Biafran adults died.
Biafran soldiers killed more Nigerian soldiers.
People that died in Biafra in millions were mainly children who died of starvation following the Nigerian starvation policy.

They were quickly replaced by their parents after the war.
If anything, Igbo population post civil war experienced a population boom!

Is Chukwu not wonderful?

Self delusion is allowed.

However, the reality is that the south east is least populated based on the most recent census.

hammerP:
[s][/s]


That 2 to 3 million Biafra war is not an excuse.


We lost far more to the transatlantic slave trade.

The point is Igbo had already established a massive population capable of multiplying quickly.

And one of our women after the Biafra war had at least 9 children.

It is recently that we cut it down to 4 or 5.


Even in your south west, if u check every state, Igbo are the second largest group.

If wishes were horses, Igbos will ride. Most tribes in the south lost their people to the slave trade. You have Yoruba all over the Caribbean, Brazil & Sierra Leone till tomorrow.


But as regards the civil war loss, it's so huge, Igbos can't recover from it hence recording the least population in the 2004 census.

It's similar to the Russians whose population has been stagnant over the years after losing 25million during WWII.

I get am before no be property.

Igbos lost tens of thousands pre-1967 and between 2 and 3 million during the civil war.

No nation recovers from such human loss.

If you are in doubt, ask Russia @Pazienza

Enough of these empty chimp-like chest beating fits!

Thank you Trump.

But do we need them

Coronavirus is NOT for Africa. Hallelujah!

She died before the result came out...

RIP

Hahaha

It is better to kill animals than to kill innocent human beings...

Essenza01:
This statistics is flawed....how do you come up with such stat when there are equal opportunities of jobs for both gender..

Do coys discriminate on gender during salaries?.

The point is not the menial job or being lazy, it's about earning enough to take care of your Bill's..

Your wife cant stoop to the level that a menial job pay can handle just because you want to satisfy your ego, she would leave...

@bolded is a red line you just crossed.

It says a whole lot about you...

Wow...

I just googled it. Ibadan is the largest.

Is your own "Google" made in Taiwan

What are the contents

chimezieeze98:
Judges pass the sentence....Governors sign the death warrant.....

I know. Why are the governors not signing the warrant

chimezieeze98:
Most do not want to stain their hands with blood. Thats why so many people are on deathrow.

How? They didn't give the judgments! The judges did. And they did based acting on the provisions of the law. Hence, the blood of the condemned is on his own head...

Obierika:
As a single guy in Nigeria who is about to select a wife the biggest mistake you could possibly make right now is to marry a lady who is either not working or is not earning any sort of income.

Do not ignore this warning if you plan to get married soon!

[/s]

Nope. The mistake is marrying without having any form of steady income no matter how small...

Pathetic!

Why don't our governors like signing death warrants

[quote author= post=89806546]89.1 % from mid-west voted against west region, what was required was 60% [/quote]At least we were willing to let them go...

What about the Eastern region that NEVER dared give it a thought despite the agitations from minorities until the FG forcefully dismembered the yeast in 1967...

raker300:
Yorubas are the purveyors of tribalism in Nigeria.

The first recorded case of tribalism was from a Yoruba called “akintola”

Akintola’s vitriol against an igbo man appointed as VC even though he was the most qualified.

To this very day, their leaders and public office holders have openly instigated tribalism without repercussions.

A more recent escapade was the violent disenfranchisement of igbo voters in Lagos, 2019

@bolded
How dare Igbos hold elective positions in Lagos

Sagay212:
Forced marriage is equal to rape. You abduct an underage, convert her forcefully to your religion, marry her forcefully and phuck her against her wish.
Crimes committed are:
Abduction
Forceful marriage
Forceful conversion to islam( violation of freedom of religion)
Forceful sexual intercourse
Sexual intercourse with an underage

He is guilty of all allegations and be punished for all.

@bolded doesn't hold here.
The age of consent in Nigeria is 11...

Nonsoboy4life:
Is not just Enugu anyway... Ala-igbo in general
See Ebonyi- 70sth %
Abia- 30%
Imo- 28%
And Anambra almost 15%

That's much ...the whole igboland is getting poorer than they used to be ..is absurd , we most think home

You are no doubt Igbo...

Someone7:
Just 7 years. This girl was kidnapped, raped and her childhood basically ruined by this man. And he is sentenced for 7 years? WTF?

The offence here is abduction and forced marriage...

hotdo9:
I wonder...I thought rape of a minor should carry a heavier sentence.

There is no rape here.

Age of consent in Nigeria is 11...

Iyiataata92:
If the sentences run concurrently, then he'll be spending seven years in jail which, to me,is too small
The north should know that this their stupid act of marrying kids can only be tolerated in their region.
Any attempt to expand their criminal marriage to the south will be met with stiff resistance
Girls from the south are more than objects for the other rooms.
Over Here, We Don't Marry Kids And You Guys Should Respect That

Still, Seven Years Is Too Small

The crime was abduction and forced marriage...
