Apt.

I keep telling them this, they keep replying with insults claiming that one is an agbadorian claiming to vote for Obi. The support he had in the last election among the yorubas, he has lost it through their unguarded statements. The support is immense and heavily under quantified.

It is Peter Obi I pity, because he seems to be heavily investing in his political future, with the way he's maintaining a presence as opposition leader, donating here and there and maintaining a media team. I pity him as his obedients has done irreparable damage to his candidature. He'll get less votes and support in the next election. People are free to bookmark this.

The unique thing with Nigeria's political space that some people are still failing to come to terms with is that you cannot do it alone. No matter how vocal and sound you are. You need the ample support of at least 3 other regions if vote sharing comes to play. But if not, you need the ample support of 4 regions to win the presidency if its a 2 horse race. Basket mouth will always damage the credibility and trustworthiness of a candidate.

You people keep talking like you know tomorrow. Do you even know if Nigeria will even exist come 2027?

There is a lesson to be learned for you people and from your comment above, it seems that you have still not grasped it yet.

I urge every Igbo person to not tell them what it is.

All you wrote here are lies , let me burst them.

I went to benue for the first time as a boy, in ldoma part of benue, prior to that l used to hear about the Biafran war from my parents and others but I never understood what it means nor how the war was fought .
I didn't knew who was Nigeria or Biafra in that war but when I got to benue state, my age mates from that side who were still reveling in the Nigeria victory made me know what actually took place then, they won't size any opportunity to recount to you how Gowon 's superior fire power overcame that of Ojukwu.
These are stories that were passed by their fathers who were mostly ex soldiers, it became a past time mockery for these boys against me as an lgbo boy.

No 2 lie is that you claimed that benue soldiers could not resist joining other soldiers in the war but that is a big lie as most benue foot soldiers in that war were enlisted purposely for the war. There are lots of benue young men who willingly joined the army just to fight biafrans.

Another lie is that IPOB has killed more lgbos than number of benue killed by Fulanis. I put it to you that Fulani has killed more benue indigens n just one year than all the killings in the south east for the past three years . There has never been a mass burial in south east but mass burial is being recorded in benue almost on monthly basis.

You guys are very delusional, Fulanis are slaughtering you with the tacit support of the yorubas but the igbos are your problem.
Go and get sense abeg

There's a clear and conceited effort to put all the blame for the maladministration of the country on the Igbos. It happened before the Biafra War and it is happening now.

My only advice to Ndigbo is to please remain calm and do not engage in any single protest. All they can say right now is that we're making mouth on Social Media. That is it. They have nothing else to say.

I really don't like creating threads that will cause unnecessary fight but I've carefully studied and monitored events in Benue for some time.

What baffles me the most sometimes is the negative comments from some Igbos saying Benue people are reaping what they planted during the civil war because they helped the Nigerian government, it is one nonsense story almost every Igbo person knows.

Firstly, During the Biafra war, Benue and the entire middle belt was under the control of the Nigerian government with military administrators fully in charge, so how do you expect Benue people serving in the army not to fight with the central government.


Secondly, did ojukwo consult Benue people before going into war? Did he mention Benue as part of Biafra during his speech?

Thirdly, why are they so fixated on Benue than the rest of the middle belt?

Lastly, Is General Yakubu Gowon from Benue state? The man that fought against you

The lack of humanity in these people is truly horrifying, the same way they are supporting the massacre of innocent Palestinians in Gaza but they are always quick to report Nigerian military to ICC for trying to weed out IPOB.


During the last election, Benue, plateau and several states in the middle belt supported Mr Obi and the labour party including my family and myself, in Benue APC won with a difference of just 2k votes, maybe through rigging with the help of Akume the current SGF.

We could've supported Tinubu or Atiku, but we didn't because we believe in Obi more than the rest of the candidates.

My Igbos brothers should get that nonsense story off their heads and stop creating more enemies for themselves, you can't be fighting every other tribe and region and then expect them to support you during elections.

They must learn how to build bridges of love.

IPOB has killed more people in south east than Fulani herdsmen in Benue, it's either they sympathize with Benue people or they keep their mouths shut and avoid such threads completely.


For Benue people, I think they should stop supporting south east thinking they are brothers, they should just remain neutral and stick to middle belt region.


We pray for good leaders that will do things right and change the minds of our people, not tribalistic leaders.



Once again, there's freedom of expression in our constitution, so nobody should get mad at me for speaking my mind.

I also expect them to report this thread, but my message would have been passed by then.


Please leave Benue people alone.

Is it not strange to you that you're complaining about Igbos not sympathising with your plight yet at the same time time complain about us not sympathising with the Palestinians? Has any Palestinian come out and spoken against your people's issues?

Many Igbos have come out to sympathise with your people. Some of those that haven't may have used the war as a reason but if you've studied history, you would understand their point of view.

If a parent tells their child to not put their hand in fire and they do it, there's a 50% chance that parent will admonish the child before helping them.

Please don't hide behind the "we were under the control of the Nigerian government" as an excuse for the atrocities committed in the Biafra War. It doesn't wash and it makes you come across as unsympathetic to what the Biafrans went through, which is ironically what you're accusing the Igbos of doing.

I think that some people mistake Tinubu supporters aka Agbadorians for all Yorubas and that's where the issue lies. People should make it clear that they're talking about Agbadorians and not all Yorubas.


Some people also make the same mistake with Igbos and Obidients.

Politics / Re: Why There's Little Or No Complain About Hunger In South East Region. by Ngozi123(f): 8:08pm On Feb 18
AntiZikist:


Only you open mouth expose your lack of food.


Please let me explain it to you plainly.

During the Biafra War, there was a lack of food in Igbo land. This was because they were at war.

During times of peace, there has been no lack of food in Igbo land.

The starvation that occurred in the Biafra War did not happen because there was no produce grown in Igbo land. Below are some of the reasons it happened:

1) Many farmlands were bombed.
2) Many farmers were conscripted (less people to farm)
3) Gowon ordered a blockade (produce that would have been grown in the land was reduced so the Biafrans would have been more reliant on food being shipped in; Gowon's order effectively sentenced many to death via starvation.)

Do you now understand what I am saying?

AntiZikist:



Which food do you produce ?

The only people to witness famine in Nigeria nah una

So you think that Igbo land has no food produce?

The reason why there was famine was because they were in the middle of a war. Gowon's government enforced a food blockade, which prevented vital shipments from going into Biafra. Farms were bombed; civilians were killed and regularly forced to duck from the bombs. There was no way for the agricultural sector to function properly.

I can't even believe that you would use the Biafran War as evidence that the Igbos cannot produce their own food.

My goodness! shocked

I see balance in the Anambra own. Not fancy but participant likely won't be hungry and be crying or start looting the systems(mouse, keyboard, ram, and HDD).

The Lagos own is typical Lagos stuff. Picturesque. Flashy. Costly, and very likely Ineffective(I pray I am wrong about the last).

It all depends on how it's utilised and maintained. Just like with Nigerian hotels. They spend a lot of money on fancy materials, which end up deteriorating because the owners cannot afford to maintain them. I'd rather they build something simple, sustainable and working. Something that would benefit our children and children's children.

In the next 10 years they will tell us how Tony Nwoye was the best senator to ever appear in the senate chamber and how he increased HDI with the above tech hub. They will even tell us how it was Lord Luggard that started the tech innovation lab in Lagos and how Tokunbo Abiru did absolutely nothing while he was in the senate.

DissTroy:


No, it's tribalism when the only relatives you help are from your tribe. I repeat, Igbo first ladies are very notorious for this and it fuels some of the sentiments against Igbos in many places. I haven't even described one-twentieth of how nepotistic Nneoma Akpabio was a First Lady. Thank goodness my people woke up to tame her.

Same way Betty Akeredolu has killed the chances of any Ondo Governorship candidate with an Igbo wife.

No matter how nepotistic and domineering any of the presidential first ladies we've ever had were/are, I can guarantee you, if those first ladies were Igbo women, they'd do worse.

I state this knowing someone would quote this in the future on a thread I frequent here and I stand by it, including on any platform.

Most people's relatives are from the same tribe as them, unless they have a multiethnic background. So, I fail to see how this could be a case of tribalism, not nepotism.

Don't get me wrong, I think it's wrong. People should only be hired based on their ability to do the job well, not on how well they know 'the boss' or his wife.

However, I do not like this "Igbos are taking over" trope. It started from before the civil war and despite the fact that no Igbo man has been in power since then, it still exists now.

DissTroy:


Not exactly. But to OP is right about Igbo wives being nepotistic and giving jobs to their Igbo relatives alone.

Nneoma Akpabio as Governor's wife was notorious for scheming Igbo people into Akwa Ibom State civil service until we fought back and kicked them all out. ALL OUT. It was so bad Igbos began boasting they control Akwa Ibom.


It's one of the reasons any person contesting as Governor or Senator in Akwa Ibom with an Igbo wife has another hurdle. It worked against Nsima in 2019.

Same thing Akeredolu's wife did.

Igbo first ladies are notorious for trying to hijack what rightly belongs to indigenes to their Igbo relatives. I trust Da Zion Umoh. Now that he's mentioned it, it would be addressed.

Akpabio had to plead when it got to a head as Governor. We'd revisit the issue and address it. If it isn't addressed, Akpabio would pay for it during the elections.

But Akpabio has used his power as Senate President to help a lot of Akwa Ibomites though. Many people I know have been appointed into high and federal offices, including a very close associate of mine recently. Many got civil service jobs too.
Nneoma Akpabio, like most Igbo first ladies married outside their tribes, tends to overdo it. The Igbos wouldn't have taken it if Obi's wife (an Ibibio) tried that as first lady in Anambra.

They scream tribalism but dish it out on a daily.

If they are only helping out their relatives then that's not tribalism, that's nepotism.

You people can hate Igbo people all you like, it isn't going to make your country or your lives better.

My only advice for you people is to start agitating for your own country now because when the Igbos leave, you will have to face the Fulanis and Yorubas alone.
