KosiGee:
Why do Igbos love doing this?? You want to know??

You are as insecure and as foolish as the idiot that started the tweet or owned the blog site.

What do Igbos love doing? Who cares about Rihanna’s origin or ethnicity? What does the average Igbo person at Onitsha, Nnewi or Owerri minding his or her business know about Rihanna.
It’s retarded people like you that help to propagate all these viral nonsense.

Shame on you and your kind.

Okay broda, no vex.

Princedapace:
How is this an igbo thing? Someone saw a news on a newspaper. The blame should be targeted at the news paper, not igbos. Come on.
There have been many times some newspaper reporter news they didn't verify thoroughly.. These things happen. It has nothing to do with a tribe. Come on.

Okay bro, I agree with you.

Bia FFK, it's like you want to be cancelled by your in-laws abi?

Obamaofusa:

Let people enjoy themselves now

Lol, okay.

SIRTee15:
The picture answers your question.
This picture was taken Jan 2015.
The foreign Secretary of USA having a meeting with the opposition stalwarts in Lagos when Jonathan was still the PRESIDENT.

How did this meeting make Buhari win the popular vote? Did this meeting force the Northerners to vote for their brothers en masse?

FarahAideed:
It's clear many people had sleepless night over that quote and went out to start digging

Well, I think it's a good thing to have "sleepless nights" over fake news. Only a despicably insecure people make up spurious things to feel good about themselves. Why do you Igbos love doing this? You've even done it to your own Chimamanda Adichie numerous times. Why did you people lie against Rihanna by claiming she said what she didn't say? Smh.

It's very glaring that Rihanna never granted such spurious interview that her mother told her she's Igbo. No source, no link, the only thing one could read in the fake article is just some "in a recent interview" nonsense. No mention of when and where this interview happened, and no mention of who Rihanna granted such interview. Only ragtag Nigerian blogs and some incompetent media outlets disseminated the fake news. We know the people who lied against Rihanna claiming to be Igbo, they only wanted to use her to chestbeat and brag about their ethnic group. They've even done it a number of times to their own Chimamanda Adichie. It's their modus operandi, we sabi them.

Per Buzzfeed...from early 2015.



I'm surprised you did not know. It was widely reported at the time. Tho it does not mean Obama sent him mind.

"Tho it does not mean Obama sent him mind." Which means that it was APC who contracted David Axelrod's firm to work for them based on the yeoman's job he did in the emergence of Obama as POTUS? Okay.

Ideally, I shouldn't dignify you with a response as I know where you are coming from already but ask how many times Buhari had contested yet failed to win the entire North before 2015.

What a load of spurious bulcrap! I'm even seeing the name of a Jonathan propagandist scammer like Reno "Wendell Similin" Omokri in the links you shared.

Benbobola:
I know of a certain highly developed country that has blacklisted ppl of his tribe from getting PR or even scholarship in their country. And it's all because of this kinds of offence. This is not tribal bigotry against them o, it's just the plain truth.

I don't believe this.

Beancounter94:
David Axelrod, Obama's chief elections guru did do some consulting for APC too in the run up to 2015.

Really? What kind of consulting? In what capacity, please? Any reputable link or source to back up this claim?

Sanchez01:
No. Obama's administration never liked Jonathan for many reasons. Which was the US blocked several arms deals and Nigeria under Jonathan adopted some black market deals using Oritsejafor's private to move heavy sums to buy weapons.

Buhari's campaign strategists were the same people who worked as strategists under Obama. Unfounded claims suggest Obama provided them but there was denying Tinubu paid them. The pressure pushed Jonathan to hire democrat strategists but it was easier to lose at the point as the US government were clearly partisan. There are so many 2015 political journals online that detail the whole thing.

You still haven't showed me how Obama forced Northerners to massively vote for their brother Buhari though. And could you please explain how "Buhari's campaign strategists were the same people who worked
as strategists under Obama"? This is new to me. Could you expatiate on this? Like, the names of these Obama campaign strategists that worked for Buhari?

Tomilola360:
Nigerians also removed Donald Trump

Well, if Obama could remove Jonathan from office, maybe this one is possible too.

Sanchez01:
Jonathan was removed through the help of America, specifically Obama. The APC and Buhari won on the back of social media because the relic was presented as a refurbished democrat.

Social media platforms are not strong or powerful as people assume. Crowwe is a social media platform, isn't it? How powerful is it? Why is not seen as a threat to Nigeria? That is because humans give it power! Crowwe, today, is worthless that I doubt it has 500 daily visitors. And this is a government-sponsored social medium o.

And just because a despot as Buhari got its Tweet removed does not mean Jack has power. Nigerians do. They reported it enmasse and it was removed. Trump used social media to rile up his followers until they got violent and attacked the capitol. It wasn't until he got banned that questions started flying around.

Politicians should be accountable and sensible in the way they talk and address their people. Using a platform to cause chaos and turn people against themselves is a greater threat than natural disasters.

The same social media that BMCs, the APC and Lai are crying over today was instrumental to their win. The government only wants less of Fulani Herdsmen reportage and almost everyone can get the story out through social media without having to write a media house. If Nigerians were treated fairly and equally, and Buhari was true to his campaign promises, most Nigerians won't be bitter and feel excluded as they are now.

Election is coming. The APC will need Twitter again.

I've always heard this spurious claim that Obama removed Jonathan. How exactly? Was it Obama that told Northerners to vote massively for Buhari? How exactly did Obama do this?

DissTroy:
I don't emotions. The English Language is what I deal in, amongst others. You should learn from this pen-god.

After "SIMPLETON", a fullstop comes next, not a comma.
It's "LMAO", not "lmao". All abbreviations are typed in uppercase letters.

I'm being patient with you so you'd learn. The very patience the woman who birthed you lacked when she dumped you at age two after your cerebral palsy diagnosis.

Dimwitted dyslexics like you embarrass coys with your poor writing skills. Even when your life depends on it and your reputation is on the line, all your replies on this thread are riddled with grammatical blunders.

You keep playing Russian Roulette with articulation but you are firing blanks.

May your life continue to be more empty than a blank paper!
May as many calamities as the binary representation of your username befall you at every turn!

My word! Our little, mentally unstable, oversensitive sissy is still wailing profusely. I don't think I've touched a nerve to this extent before. Do you miss mommy and daddy, little kid? And I didn't even finish reading your long, boring, incoherent piffle. But please, what kind of grammar is "I don't emotions"? For a delusional asshat who claims to deal in the English language, don't you think such horrible grammar coming from you is laughable and ironic? Lol. Deplorable Nigerian alt-right and Ben Shapiro wannabe. I'm so glad I'm making you cry bitterly like a baby though. More tears and emotional breakdown coming your way, dear little cretin.

DissTroy:
Halfwit, post histories are proof enough of the validity of typographical errors or not. Yours is riddled with so many piss-poor comments, it'd pass for the burner account of a cerebral palsy first-grader.

You punctuate worse than a dyslexic leper.

Rambling only occurs with voice conversations, not text interactions.

Begin all sentences with uppercase letters.

It's not "right wing" but "Right-wing". It has to be hyphenated since it's an adjective, and "Right" has to be capitalised to denote the institutional and/or political reference.

See how to punctuate and capitalise sentences?

Need I go on?

May 85 drugged orangutans take turns enlarging every orifice on your shriveling body with their penile appendages!

My word! I can't believe this utterly touchy, insecure and monumental cretin is having an emotional breakdown over the fact that he can't spell SIMPLETON, lmao. Why are you wailing this much like a toy-deprived spoilt brat, Nigerian Ben Shapiro wannabe? What a load of mumbo jumbo. Go seek help for your mental instability, oversensitive sissy.

Simpeton-esque newt who had to coin a username to come across as intelligent which is obviously masking an obvious mental deficiency.

The only relationshit you have with Newton is your I.Q. being less than 1 gravitational constant.

May army ants lay waste to your rottening carcass.

Even with all your baseless, boring, incoherent rambling, you still couldn't spell "simpleton." Deplorable Nigerian right wing nutcase and Ben Shapiro wannabe. colossal midwit.

Dikaveli:
One thing i know is southerners are the face of nigeria but disagreement between igbos and yorubas is the reason fulani is oppressing everybody in this country. When i saw 5 nigerians in UK i know Yoruba will dominate but an Igbo person must be there.

As a deltan i know if there will be any south south man then he or she must be deltan. My south south brothers depend only on oil but look at igbos and yorubas taking education and business very serious.

But the truth is in the whole country ofthe world igbos dominate except UK.

I pray we southerners will one day reason and act like brothers

Shut the Bleep up, you Yoruba-hating clown. The Igbos dominate most of the world indeed.

vickydevoka:
Is owusu a Yoruba name. Dats Ghanian . So she could be from kogi or Benin. So calm down

After you made a right point that Owusu is a Ghanaian name, you still ended up claiming someone named Owusu could be from Kogi or Benin. Na wa for you o.

DissTroy:
Because the Left and the mainstream media play racial and identity politics and it's a tool which has been weaponised to create divide for selfish gains.

Because race hustling is big business and there are people who feed off it. For example, the director of Black Lives Matters who has been buying luxury houses with BLM donations.

Because there are people whose only claim to fame is race and social justice warrior. Several.

Even Chimamamda gained fame in the West by playing identity politics and race hustling but she has toned it down now.

Lol, this one is sounding like a Nigerian Ben Shapiro and right wing nutjob. There's nothing one won't see on this Nairaland. Na wa oh!

Am not that religious but I always knew that there's no other God under the sun or beneath that the almighty Jehovah the alpha and Omega, the creator of heaven and Earth.
For the past two years I have not attended churches but I always keep the precepts of the Lord.

There's no need for individuals to keep crying for mumy water for help.

Jesus is the only saviour

Oga, you're just another bloody Christian religitard, no matter your "Am (sic) not that religious" codswallop. Not everyone gives a hoot about your mythical virgin-born character called Jesus. Your Jesus doesn't exist. Grow up, brainwashed sheeple.

Iwillsurvivedis:

Your Jesus doesn't exist.

The way the yeebos here post you'd think they are on some reality distorting substances or something.

Lol, that's because they suffer from mass psychosis. A people that are utterly detached from reality.

OfoIgbo:
Are Igbos generally fairer than Yorubas, or are Yorubas generally fairer than Igbos? Don't tell me they are generally the same complexion, because they are not.

This will help in establishing whether you are proud of your complexion or not.

Also Igbos were described as Red-Eboes, before bleaching cream came into use, in African communities. Go figure

Okay dude, there are no dark skinned Igbos. Infact, all Igbos are light skinned. I fully agree with you. If that makes you feel so special or makes you sleep better at night. Bye.

OfoIgbo:
Do you know that Obi Cubana is probably the darkest Igbo person that most Igbos will ever know, but I can marshal out a list of Yorubas that are as dark and even darker than him, from the public domain.

Check the pictures attached.

Take note of the last one that shows Obi Cubana with Igbos surrounding him, and see how his very dark complexion sticks out.
He will not stick out, if he took that picture in the midst of Yorubas.

Igbos are a predominantly dark skinned people, no need boring me with some edited pictures. Enough of your sickening insecurity in proving Igbos are a predominantly dark skinned people so bad.

IhateYouMan:
And what is the point ?

The point is that Igbos are predominantly a dark skinned people.
