Many people accredite and agree the dislike and hatred for the Igbos in Nigeria is caused by the civil war. Many people continue to carry the notion that they started the civil war thus the hatred.

But it has been more than fifty(50+) years since the civil war. More people now are being killed by a particular tribe codenamed "BANDITS" than the Igbos ever even did, yet not much bitterness is put on them as the Igbos even till now. Rwanda is a country of only about 13 million today, as at thirty years ago at the time of the genocide they were about half the population yet about 800,000 people were killed. Today, there is not only a total reconciliation there but Rwanda has moved on to be one of the very fastest growing economies in Africa. The cleanest, less corrupttion!

So why does Nigeria still carry it's hate on a peaceful ethnic group? Peaceful cause as someone from Kaduna State, Southern Kaduna, I have never experienced or even heard of an ethnic clash between the Igbo settlers and a Middle Belt tribe before.

So I theorized the issue is not because of the civil war but the civil war is only a symptom of the real matter in contention. And I continued to ask till I discovered this very wonderful video on YouTube. It gives a clear, good picture to the root cause, if you see it that way.

It's tittled "The hatred behind Jews, Igbos, and Chinese Explained by Thomas Sowell"

This video has answered my long questions and probably many others perfectly well. Especially now as the elections draw near and the questions seems very rife.

Psquare are known upcoming artists and local champ...

They are using the flop campaign of Obi to revive their dead career

Someone who couldn't manage his marriage 😀

Pastorjohn2:
ABOMINATION!!!!!

I decree upon them their children will know no peace.
They'll suffer for their parents sins.
Those of you daughters and sons of satan that watches this show shall know no peace as well.

You'll all born in hell for all eternity

VTJN:
Lol

Seun was a grammy nominee, globally recognised unlike Psquare a local champ..

Seun is from a wealthy home, well enlightened and exposed

Psquare the talentless artists using political campaign to revive their dead career?

Psquare who collected money from Buhari, Jonathan and anticipating to collect from Obi?

Dey play

femisplash:
How will you see the insults on his father when you're cut from the same bigotry as the illiterate guy.

OsunOriginal:
I think the next thing for him is to leave the race. There is no way on earth Obi can get 25% in Lagos with this empty TBS and only noise.

ogunprince18:
Fela is a YORUBA ICON just as much as national. You are the real bigot with your hatred. You people just wanna copy everything white people do and call other Africans bigots all day. it’s pathetic that you have this much self hatred

femisplash:
Abeg keep quiet, Seun gave a personal opinion and then the illiterate butted in to insult Seun and his father's legacy, he would further go on to insults fela's shrine and what he stands for. But you're here being half smart trying to downplay the insults on his father. Meanwhile, you guys would have been screeching at our ears like a crybaby if it was the other way round

femisplash:
What's my business with one effing petition, Yoruba don't roll like that, I doubt he'd get a hundred signatures, unlike you guys signing a stupid petition against Brymo and anyone who slaps reality into you..

femisplash:
Exactly why you share same single digit IQ with the illiterate Peter Okoye.

femisplash:
So says a blind bigot, you wouldn't see where Peter insulted Fela and his legacy because you share same sentiments with the illiterate guy.

PrinceOfLagos:
obi is coming

PrinceOfLagos:
Mr Peter Obi is scheduled to hold labour party campaign rally in Lagos today at TBS Lagos . Nigerians especially the youths living in Lagos are already gearing up for the mother of all rallies at TBS .

See placards on display ahead of the rally today in Lagos ..

A massive rally today may just make some desperate people resort to 100% violence right from the morning of election day.

Workch:
ANAP polls has consistently been right since 2011, they predicted that joanths will win in 2011 and Buhari in 2015 and 2019.

One what ground do you think that they are wrong now by predicting Peter Obi as the winner?

Why do you think we should disbelieve them and believe you?

Hopium:
Nice one!

What's happening today at Sokoto and Kano is very clear as to what to expect in the election. 25th no far again, we shall see.

Hopium:
Let's see what you've got.

Hopium:
No need for insult

Run away from this inverter people,it can't even carry FAN AND TELEVISION

Mynd44:
A 5 K.V.A inverter plugged to 2 12V, 200Amps batteries powered by 8 320watts solar panels and you won't ask this question again.

Even petrol for generator wont matter

So my powe supply is permanent

Megabig:
I’ve been meaning to ask, where is Sowore and his campaign?

I feel duped that I’ve contributed to his campaign at one point and there is nothing to show for it.

Is it that he comes up every 4 years, seek funds, chew our money and then disappears?

What should be done to people like this?

Bede2u:
First of all I want to state that voting Peter Obi has nothing to do with tribe but taking back Nigeria from the establishment.

Having said that, if Peter Obi wins the South south as most polls project, then it means that despite the nairaland noise from the 'we the south south' miscreants here, the Niger Delta ordinary folks are aligned with the Igbos.

This would be the second time an Igbo man will be a strong contender together with a yoruba man. They will have the choice for the second time of choosing between WaZoBia. If they choose Bia then the yorubas will now know that as far as the southern region is concerned in the 21st century, they are the ones who need to align with the others. Because the other two regions are infact united.

The first time in 1979 when WaZoBia was on the Ballot, the Niger Delta chose Zo. They voted Shagari. I believe they may now know better (not saying that zik was better than shagari though) about southern alliance. A picture of the 1979 election results is also attached

Attack the message, not the messenger

senatordave1:
You yourself knows obi won't win.highest he can do is to get to a runoff
