I bought Newswatch instead of The Economist.

My assignment is just that.  lipsrsealed


That dude is neither Hausa, nor Fulani.  (And I don't even have to check his post history to confirm it.)  Only us "ignorant southerners" lump Hausas and Fulanis together.

I bet he's one of your posse, trying to pull a fast one.  grin

Derail away!  There's a hundred similarly themed threads.  lol.  Plus, I'd like to see Prof Ola throw a massive strop.  shocked cheesy

First I'll type: Ojukwu (just to cover my behind)  embarassed


lol @ bolded, You are becoming very good at this NL thing

Yea Newswatch was great back in the days, and The News too. But you don't follow Naija Politics too much, do you? I thought we lost you to Omericurr.

Well actually this dude is really Hausa/Fulani and he lumped these two ethnic groups together because they are together; they have been indivisible since at least 1804.  "Ni cikakken bakane ne" and proud of it too. don't know what makes you think otherwise.

or wait, i get it! you must be one of those dudes who really believe Hausawa are all dumb. aren't you?
Well surprise, that was the generation of yester-years. You have just been awaken to the new reality;
"Hausa/Fulani sun dawo".  And this generation, the like of which you have never known
will make feel pretty silly for believing all the silly things they say about us.

Its a sad story but the the events of the civil war was "unfortunate"
Igbos were set up as at the time to pay a heavy price for a nation built on shaky foundations.

If same sitiation re-occurs who is gonna be the biggest casualties this time ,

IGBOS !!!

You are wrong my brother, the greatest casualty of such an event will not be the Igbos, it will be Us and our hope of a new united and progressive Nigeria that is at peace with itself.
Its conscience no longer stained by the injustices of corrupt leaders nor our turbulent past. May that time you speak of never come.

^u are probably new on nairaland. And i bet u joined cos u thought it will be an avenue for u to have logical and objective discourse on how to make Nigeria a better place. Just the same reason i joined. But be careful. Some might spew venomous words about ur people and that might fill u with hatred and change ur perception about other tribes and even Nigeria as a whole. huta lafiya mutumi na

Quite True. I have read words here on NL that make me wonder if we do not have an epidemic of madness.
With all their poisonous words against my people, you will be surprised to know that i do not hate them.
I pity them. Why?  i have seen hate and what it can do; it is a disease that turn proud men into wretched souls.
I am incapable of the emotion called hatred.
Do you remember what Richard Nixon said in his farewell address at the white house following the water gate scandal that led to his fall?
"Always remember others may hate you but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself."

I am loving these unbiased articles about the great leader of Biafra, Ojukwu. He is being vindicated. Nigeria cannot spread its lies about this man. The world knows the truth and history will look favorable on him.

Re: Ojukwu - The Economist by Jenifa1: 5:34am On Dec 05, 2011
The guy (Ojukwu) wanted to be a dictator by then, he taught others na mugun, he forgotten we are all criminals like him! no face for a failed dictator. burn in hell!


this is exactly my impression as well. minus the "burn in hell" part.
I see him as a [i]would have been [/i]dictator.
also imagine he came back from exile and ran for Nigerian presidency twice!! lol This is a guy who put lives of millions at stake to fight a war against Nigeria.
what are his principles?
It would be nice to see a recent biography about him.
