Paul John: My man this is not about being tribalistic, but i've got to say this. WE all know different evil acts and the group of people that they are peculiar to in this country, so lets stop painting one group saint and the other as bad (as you did in your earlier post). That my post you quoted is to tell you no group is saint.

And I've got no time to be searching for link or post to show where Igbo kill for money, we all know it's rampart. So stop the cover up, No tribe is saint.

NB: I'm not defending that act.

Paul John: Chai, Yoruba una self dey do this kind job

@Obiagu1, wetin you won talk about the Igbo(from the bolded part)?

torkaka: @norabenok
nigeria had three regions before right? ok lets break it down using the regions and removing tribe from the equation;
old northern region: now 19 states.
old eastern region: now 10 states.
old western region: now 7 states.

in the spirit of fairness (like most of you are preaching) it is the old west that really needs more states to catch up. afterall its not about tribe but regions right?

lagcity: aaahh! Igbo man wan push Yoruba comot for country! Why u wan make we leave na? the oil never dry , we sef neva ready, wetin be ur own?

ChinenyeN: Honestly though, aside from its institutionalized value as a legend, I tend to dismiss this oral tradition and the whole Imo Crossing Incident. I do not believe the tradition is meant to be taken literally, as many seen to have erroneously done.

egift: Either you have short memory or you are a liar. The 40 Laptops guys self...

1. Do you know that the Federal Executive Council meeting could not hold severally - because Jona cannot seat in place of Yar'Adua.
2. Turia (did I get the name), ran the show unofficially while Bros was at the kitchen - including handling funds.
3. Oga Jona lied to Nigerians that he spoke with Yar'Adua, when he never got even a whisper.
4. Or you did not know that light in Abuja Airport was switched off the night that Ambulla arrived Nigeria. Even army authorized without anyone bothering to inform Oga Jona - you think say na today?
4. You forgot how Nigerians marched the street when Oga was missing in action.

Plug this on for that your Laptop No 32

touchmeder: I cant help but agree somewhat. In this country we don't like being honest sometimes. There was so much drama and secrecy about the death of Yaradua and even swearing in Jonathan was like a camel passing through the eye of a needle. People were beginning to quote rule of law and the rest. I dont know what the powers that be were trying to cook up.End of the day we got Jona, turned out to be a waste anyway!

zmoni: It is popularly said that while the Aku will do anything for
money, the Ibo will do anything for revenge.

ayobase: IS REVERSE NOT THE CASE?

TroGunn: The current nomadic grazing by the Fulani herdsmen should be outlawed. The Senate should be passing a law to ban this practice for the following reasons:

1) The practice is dirty and unhealthy and leads to spreading of diseases due to the unsanitary dumping of animal and human faeces by the nomads and their animals.
2) Nomadic cattle rearing has no long term future. Ranching is the way to go. The earlier ranching is enforced the better.
3) Will eliminate the destruction of valuable crops
4) Will eliminate the conflicts between the crop farmers and the herdsmen.
5) Will reduce the violent crimes of armed robbery and r.ap.es known to be perpetrated by the herdsmen.

torkaka: there's simply no rationale for any more states!

torkaka: why should igbos have five and others less?

torkaka: The whole noise been made about another igbo state is hinged on deceit and lies!
igbos have the second highest number of states behind only the yorubas!
abacha was the one who created zones. remove the zones and you have 36 states out of which they're five for igbos next only to the seven for the yorubas.

Onlytruth: I remember the argument I had with one of my brothers here sometime last week about this idea of allocating grazing land for Fulani herdsmen.
What every concerned group Igbo, Yoruba, Middle belt and Ijaw are saying in their opposition to this are exactly the same things I said.
Only fools don't see the rationality in the points they are making.

ChinenyeN: And you know that I'm "simply lying" because your ignorance concerning Ngwa tells you so. I see.

"We all". Of course you mean ignorant people like you who are unfamiliar with Ngwa traditions, but still think they have some phantom right to dispute anything Ngwa with Ngwa people (since the opinion of an Ngwa is irrelevant, when Ngwa is concerned).

ChinenyeN: I still don't get why your ignorant self thinks its in a position to dispute with me about my people.

ChinenyeN: You're incorrect. The Ngwa/Ohuhu legend is a story to emphasize common ancestry and explain the Ngwa/Ohuhu ethnonyms. It is not a story of migration, because the story never named a starting or ending point. It lacks an "origin-to-destination" sequence.
