I think the Igbos should use this opportunity to align with north on this protest that is on ground. This is not the best time to be neutral. They should take side with the north. This is the time to prove to them, that they are not enemies. I don't know much about politics just that overthinking they worry me.

CyrusVI:
In Abuja?

That's a state in Northern region....they have every right too

It's only gonna draw reactions if your Govs and council of elders ask u not to protest in your region but then u choose to protest in other people's home

That's hypocritical

JASONjnr:
This part got me laughing out loud......

Igbos can't do without Lagos as well as without Yorubas.....

I can tell you the percentage of Igbos that speak Yoruba language and the percentage of Yorubas that speak Igbo language.... You will understand that ibos throw themselves on Yorubas.....

JASONjnr:
Moomoo.....


I live and have many Yorubas as friends and I can tell you for free that many Yorubas don't like ibos..

You can argue with yourself.

JASONjnr:
I really feel that since this protest is heading this direction. Then the Igbos should really stay away from Lagos and every part of southwest.


I keep saying this... The southwest don't like the southeast. Why are the ibis still forcing themselves where they're rejected every now and then?


Whatever business you have in Lagos and whatever investment you've put... Bring all of it back to your region. And develop your region.

This protest will just lead to another civil war as Yorubas have started saying that it's ibis that are pushing for the protest more.

Tjra:
I thought there are no more herdsmen in the east? Have they returned? I don't understand

Retailers and wholesalers are the problem not govt. We are wicked to ourselves.

Northern Group Writes Inspector-General Of Police, DSS To Formally Notify About August 1 Nationwide Protest

A northern group, the Northern Initiative for Growth has formally notified the Inspector General of Police at the Nigeria Police Force Headquarters in Abuja of their intention to hold a peaceful protest across Northern Nigeria on August 1st, 2024.

The northerners said the protest aimed to shine a spotlight on pressing regional issues and advocate for meaningful reforms.

"We seek to foster positive change through peaceful means."

In light of the upcoming demonstration, the northern group urged the Inspector General of Police to ensure maximum security and order throughout the event.
