The igbos are becoming too boastful over nothing and it's increasingly affecting our psyche. We are showing narcissistic behaviours and I wonder where those sort of traits came from
Whatever we've accomplished as people we should learn to remain humble and stop being unassumingly loud. It's becoming irritating

I want you to follow this thread from the beginning and tell me how boastful the Igbos Are?

Do you expect them to keep quiet in the face of tyranny and maltreatment?

This thread was supposed to be about how an humble man (Obiora) ventured into airline business but some people deemed it fit to cast aspersions on the man by saying it is an ill acquired wealth. The Igbos were called 5 percenters and yet they rose to the level where they are today without govt funding and you're here asking why they shouldn't be celebrated.

Abeg, leave Igbos alone and let them celebrate what is worth celebrating afterall, it's within their rights to do so.

gwafaeziokwu:
Someone that spent 10 years in Russia where he obtained his PhD and them came back to build the DOME in the heart of Abuja did not grow organically?

I know you have been hearing of the DOME for years but do not know the onwner. Does he not have the right to divest into others businesses with his profit?

A thorough breed Onitsha boy that joined his fathers trade even as early as primary four then took over at 16 years when his father fell sick need no introduction to the world of street hustling.

You hear the names of those who want you to hear their names. There are many more like him in Anambra and entire Igboland who had made a fortune in business without noise.

Obiora Okonkwo is not just a 25 or 30 year old buy who just stumbled upon money. He has worked up the economic ladder through the years and has the requisite education qualification to compliment it. Please show respect abeg.

Bia nwanne, must you reply any fool?

Allow these lots to die in their misery

Because he hasn't seen the man on social media that's why he's talking jargons

The best reply is what Obiora himself quoted; Others are chasing fame while he is chasing money.

Nwanne, Igbo Amaka Jare!

forgiveness:
Is this your proof? Honestly, you are not smart.

Bayo owns GIP. GBAM

You don't have common sense! This thread is about Obiora why bringing Bayo into it.

Create a thread about Bayo let's also celebrate him.

IYANGBALI:
carry chair sidon dey monitor them. Na you get your time. No forget to remind them of the case of that billionaire kidnapper o

I said it you have dined with the devil and eaten of his 50 naira bread.

IYANGBALI:
abeg abeg abeg don't gI've yourself unnecessary heart attack. Nigerians always forget things easily. Where are those before him? This one too go soon go as soon as a new story comes up to overshadow it

Crime na crime irrespective of the time it was perpetrated. They all must go down and no one will sweep it under the rug. The time is now!

IYANGBALI:
new story never show face to replace am for us to forget am now

You want us to forget it abi

Are you a beneficiary of his N50 Agege bread for palliative?

Futuragetty:
Lagos, are you ready for your next governor? Obasa!

Nah......Lagosians are too sophisticated to vote for Obasa. They will all vote for Mc Oluomo, he's an educated Agbero extra-ordinaire.

SoNature:
What did Obasa do to Sahara Reporters?

Obviously, the man picked a wrong battle as Sahara Reporters is Nigeria's best media house for Investigative Journalism.

Even if he survives this fight, Sahara Reporters will make him look a common criminal before the general public.

But then, he's a Nigerian politican; he doesn't give a damn what the electorates think. He just needs to push the right buttons and will maintain his position as an honourable.

Pushing the right buttons?

Do you mean like sharing another batch of 50 naira "stay at home and stay safe" Agege bread to his people?

Sanchez01:
http://saharareporters.com/2020/05/26/exposed-how-lagos-assembly-speaker-obasa-approved-n405m-feeding-less-40-muslim-lawmakers

Stealing 40 million Naira in feeding 40 of his muslim brotherhood for Ramadan?

While sending 50 Naira Agege bread to over 1 million people in his constituent as palliative.

Hmmm......Who am I to cry more than the bereaved.

Genset:
My ex-boyfriend just me money out of the blues, should i be worried? We broke up since the beginning of the year and haven't spoken since then. All of a sudden he texted me asking for my account number and then sent me money. It's just weird.

Wonders they say shall never end!

After collecting and spending the Money?


You are now realising he was your ex?

Hypocrisy is a bigger sin!

Abeg, I need to take my leave off Nairaland.

They say by their fruit you shall know them.

Why all this hate?

Because one Obiora bought 10 aircrafts at the same time?

Or because he's Igbo?

Poverty oriented fellows.

See how they're displaying their poverty stricken mentality online because of one man's success.

May God have mercy on you all....

post=89997355:
How far with FBI story on Tinubu

Guy let us stop dragging unnecessary issues online with any Tom, Dick and Harry.

Let's keep igniting the spirit of UJAMA known to have been the bedrock of Igbo society.

Government or no Government intervention, Igbos will continue to thrive.

No matter how they try, you can't put an Igbo man down because the work of God can never be mocked

HazardMan:
You don't have a problem at all. I thank God for your problem free life.....

Take a trip to hospitals, Igbobi to be precise and see patients on wheel chair, patients with amputated legs and arms, some on life support.

Also take a trip to the school of blind, deaf and dumb and see how they're living their life's.

Then come back here and give thanks and praises to God.

You are created perfect, you should concern yourself only with how to achieve what God has destined for you in life and not some flimsy things.

Go and see Aki and Pawpaw living their dreams. Yes! They were once insulted but today many see them as role models.

God can never be mocked and so his words. Go and conquer, the world is waiting for that unique gift God has endowed you with.

SamuelAnyawu:
Happy 30th Birthday Bro.

At 30 with so much money, while I'm 43 with no money .

This life no dey Balanced . May God bless all our hustles

There's no correlation between wealth and age.

Keep working hard and smart

The sun will still shine on you, don't ever say never

If Mark Cuban can become a billionaire at age 40, and If Sarah, Abrahams wife can give birth when she was so old, then nothing dey shake.

Don't allow other people's way of reasoning bring you down, keep keeping on!

FIatino:
Well said sir. We are right behind you 101 percent

Buhari has led well. Pipu just insult his administration for nothing but sheer hate.
They dont know it no dey easy to undo 16 years of destruction by PDPiss.

The hateful ones plan will fail. Whom God has blessed, no man can curse. Stand your ground sir, Ipod yoots and children of hate will always come. All were hired by the late porn.star lamidi cownu.

Giv them no attention

God bless you sir
God bless President Muhammadu Buhari (GCFR)
God bless Nigeria

IQ is not measured by spoken grammar but by what you have upstairs.

From the way you reason it has shown that if your IQ is being measured you'll be called a slowpoke OR what is known as Ode Buruku in our local parlance.

Muyiwaipere:
After how many years...

You want dey drag the industry with dem Nairamarley...Agbaya

Idiot! You open your rotten teeth to insult someone that is legitimately trying to make ends meet. Nonsense pikin-like mentality.

Takeit2017:
God why? Why me?
I dnt have confidence speaking good English always Craming what to say?

Please help me.

Is it by force to speak Good English?


When has speaking good English become a true test of knowledge?

You should be concerned with achieving your goal in life and putting food on the table and not all these shenanigans.

Our father in heaven, please come to our aid and start unleashing your wrath against these killers, and evil politicians accross all the geo political zones.


May the soul of this young man and the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in perfect peace.


This is heartbreaking, just like that?

AlhajaChinyere:
Igbomen dey get better slap from me everyday and nothing dey happen!

Please where do you stay? I want to check something

seunmsg:
He got the job based on sentiment and emotions. He may not be able to keep it for long if he doesn’t make professionalisms and balanced reporting his guiding principles.

Journalists should be the watch dog of the society and not attack dog of a particular political party or politician. Once they become unfairly partisan, they lose focus and become a danger to the society. I wish him the very best in his new role.

Because they're the watchdog of society doesn't mean they will be silent in the face of tyranny, anarchy and doom.

All over the world, in saner climes to b precise Journalists act as pressure groups so as to check the excesses of public office holders and those that are menace to society.

Hmmm......your case has gone beyond the BEYOND


You need to visit a good bible believing church for exorcism so as to cast out the Nephilims that have turned your body to an abode.


The pastor or reverend that will conduct your deliverance must be strong in prayer and needs to embark on 7 days prayer and fasting before trying because what is tormenting you ain't ordinary demons.

Heed my advice dear before it's too late.

Effcc should also beam their searchlight on the illegality going on in Lagos State by the Lagos State Speaker, Obasa and his mentor in crime Thefnubu.


Hypocrites......always turning deaf ears to APC controlled states when corruption matters.

What's wrong in marrying a forty year old woman?

Is she not a human?

As long as you both are a perfect match then there's no qualms.

Trayceey:
did I mention that I dated them? I'm talking about those that came forward for marriage. It's you that won't get married, not me.

Some of our problems are attitudinal
God will never come down from heaven to solve our singlehood .He sends people Just that they don't appear wearing angelic wings, don't have brightest educational qualification and may not appear as "Mr. Right.

We can't keep dragging the queue with others asking God for open doors when all we do is frown throughout the week at suitors that come your way with uncouth attitude and behaviour as if they are responsible for all our woes on earth.

If the guys you meet doesn't bring you joy to the extent of unleashing all your venom on your poor innocent suitors, then you might as well have a rethink to rediscover your purpose on earth so as to have a firm hold on your bearing in life to directly be in tune with what brings you joy and fulfillment.


We go to church smiling sweetly at everyone and silently asking God why our suitors refuse to return after their first encounter with with us.


Please Change, Church isn't the only time we are expected to show teeth and be nice towards our fellow humans but every blessed day of the week.


This is just my widows might!

A man was sleeping at night in his cabin when suddenly his room filled with light, and God appeared. The Lord told the man he had work for him to do, and showed him a large rock in front of his cabin. The Lord explained that the man was to push against the rock with all his might.So, this the man did, day after day.For many years he toiled from sun upto sundown, his shoulders set squarely against the cold, massive surface of the unmoving rock, pushing with all of his might. Each night the man returned to his cabin sore and worn out, feeling that his whole day had been spent in vain.Since the man was showing discouragement, the Adversary (Satan) decided to enter the picture by placing thoughts into the weary mind: “You have been pushing against that rock for a long time, and it hasn’t moved.
”“You have been pushing against that rock for a long time, and it hasn’t moved.
Thus, he gave the man the impression that the task was impossible and that he was a failure. These thoughts discouraged and disheartened the man.Satan said, “Why kill yourself over this? Just put in your time, giving just the minimum effort; and that will be good enough.”That’s what the weary man planned to do, but decided to make it a matter of prayer and to take his troubled thoughts to the Lord. “Lord,”he said, “I have labored long and hard in your service, putting all my strength to do that which you have asked. Yet, after all this time, I have not even budged that rock by half a millimeter. What is wrong? Why am I failing?”What is wrong? Why am I failing?The Lord responded compassionately, “My friend, when I asked you to serve Me and you accepted, I told you that your task was to push against the rock with all of your strength, which you have done. Never once did I mention to you that I expected you to move it. Your task was to push.And now you come to Me with your strength spent, thinking that you have failed. But, is that really so? Look at yourself. Your arms are strong and muscled, your back sinewy and brown; your hands are callused from constant pressure, your legs have become massive and hard. Through opposition you have grown much, and your abilities now surpass that which you used to have. True, you haven’t moved the rock. But your calling was to be obedient and to push and to exercise your faith and trust in My wisdom. That you have done. Now I, my friend, will move the rock.”At times, when we hear a word from God, we tend to use our own intellect to decipher what He wants, when actually what God wants is just a simple obedience and faith in Him. By all means, exercise the faith that moves mountains, but know that it is still God who moves mountains.When everything seems to go wrong .just P.U.S.H.!
When your family turns their back against you … just P.U.S.H.!
When people don’t react the way you think they should … just P.U.S.H!
When your money is “gone” and the bills are due….just P.U.S.H!
When people just don’t understand you, just P.U.S.H.P= PrayU= UntilS= SomethingH= Happens.



Don't give up yet, Christ has not abandoned you.


As long as you've asked for forgiveness with a contrite spirit.


Your healing and upliftment is on the way

tot:
Seun's attention has been drawn to this issue over and over again. I mean for goodness sake, is it too hard to borrow basic etiquettes from the likes of reddit and quora? It's only on Nairaland graphic gory horrible pictures keep gracing the front page.

This is horrible! Killing of monkeys for food in this time and age.

This is the height of ignorance. They don't even know that one can expose his or herself to diseases eating such animals.

DenreleDave:
Why kill monkeys again?

Froshloaded, u r also needed

You need a good tutor that will guide you and make things easier for you.

Trying to do it on your own when u don't have the foundation will be difficult.

The more they post things like this on the front page the more you guys encourage killings of endangered species.

This is very wrong! This is the reason why the Oyinbo people will continue to look down on us.

How on earth will one be killing these species of animals for food?

The moderators should put an end to this nonsense of glorifying the killings of endangered species.

obembet:
I don't like politicians

Does that mean if a politician ask you out you'll decline too?

Chisaedhor:

Yuceeluv:
