why was the capital moved from calabar to lagos and why was it moved from lokoja to calabar

Calabar and Lokoja was never a capital of independent Nigeria.

Stop misinformation, early white colonialist move locations briefly from lokoja to calabar and finally Lagos to suit their economic interests. The white colonial masters uses Lagos as capital of Nigeria for more than 70 years before Nigeria independent.

The the British where just moving capital as they conquer territory, Lagos was annexed from Bini empire that is ruling over it as Eko in 1861.

Ojukwu kept giving some unacceptable preconditions for food aid to be brought in to Biafra. He intended to use pictures of the starving children for propaganda purposes. There was no genocide on ibos

You are still lying, what make Cameroon to have better control of Bakkassi is because Gowon and Awolowo gave it to Cameroon so that they can block food supplies heading to Biafra. Cameroon troops occupy Bakassi till date.

gwarotango:
Actually I am 'trueing' until you provide evidence of such a genocide taking place

what Nigeria did against the civilians in Biafra is war crime. They block all food aids from international organizations from reaching refugee camps. In war there is an international corridor for food supplies and medicaments to reach the refugees.

Which evidence are you looking again, wasn’t Awolowo the architect that starve young children to death once said that what they did is part of the war game.

gwarotango:
Oga there was no genocide against Ibos what we had was a civil war where the ibo leadership failed to secure food for it's population. Respect to all those who lost their lives on both sides of the divide

You are lying , what Nigeria did against the Civilians in Biafra is war crime. They block all food aids from international organizations from reaching refugee camps. In war there is an international corridor for food supplies and medicaments to reach the refugees.

brightpre:
Delta State is not part of Biafra land.

Speak for yourself, if you are happy with the Fulani herdsmen northerners, your tribe in Delta State can go with them.

Nawaoo, things dey happen oo

Emilokoiyawon:
Guy nobody envies Igbos. Why? Because been Igbo does not innoculate you from the challenges of making a living in Nigeria. The average Nigerian (of all tribes) have to hustle to make a living. If you are not connected to politicians, if you are not a member of the ruling class, if your family is not already rich, or if you are not lucky to have one of those lucrative jobs (oil companies, top bank jobs etc.), if you are not a drug pusher or top level kidnapper, my brother, you have to hustle to make even 1 naira. That is the reality of been a Nigerian.

We are on the same page, what you said is the summary of the message I am trying to pass to the person saying that Igbos are slaves in Nigeria.

Nigerians are equal,all I see is hustle hustle, politics don’t put food on people table if not the northerners that have been ruling Nigeria for ages wouldn’t be the poorest region in Nigeria

Tflex01:
Nobody envy Igbos. It is a common talk among you guys just to cover your failures.

btw, what is your criteria for measuring "successful tribe"?

From Abuja to Lagos to Maiduguri they call the shot in life activities.Politics won’t put food on your table unless you are family member of a politician otherwise you will be Part of poor masses shouting that Vp Osinbajo and Gbaja is yorubaman why hunger dey wipe the person ass.

A Yoruba, Igbo or Hausa in government looting the treasury of Nigeria is doing so for his family, igbos that is fully engaged in something doing benefits more from Hausa man that is shopping government money.

Tflex01:
Igbos will never allow the Yorubas to concentrate and discuss this issue now with their mischievousness but will complain others are putting mouth in their own matter.

The way you shook mouth up and down for Igbo matter.

Tflex01:
So the slavery of the Igbos in Nigeria is forever??

What make the Igbos slaves in Nigeria , I guess Buhari Bad government is affecting only the Igbos.

Last I check Igbos are the most successful tribe in Nigeria which is the root cause of the envy against them.

Afonjas should forget Ilorin, it is very difficult for Fulani to surrender their conquered territory.

Kwara is now Fulani stronghold, you can’t imagine the numbers of Fulani herdsmen that would have settle in Kwara since Buhari came to power.

Tflex01:
How do you manage to sleep at night with this amount of bitterness

FYI, Goodluck had more votes in SW than SE in 2015 and 2019.

Yorubas are not the reason why you have failed in life.

I have excellent in most area of my life and have excel in life , you guys hate the bitter truth.

I am not filled with bitterness but telling the truth.

If Adesina is from other tribe like Igbo,today he will be facing all manner of evil tarnishing of his name like Okonjo Iweala. Other tribes have no time in pulling others down.

Iamgrey5:
lol this laughable

Do you know the history of the llajes?

Ilajes always claim to be Yorubas more than anyone else

They attached theirselves to Yorubas, but what I mean is that a Yoruba man cannot hear Ilaje language.

abdulwastecx:
Oga stops lying to yourself, I am from Ondo state, a Yoruba of akoko subgroup, I can hear ilaje people and they can also hear me just fine.

A Yoruba man cannot hear Ilaje language, Ilaje have Yoruba as central language just the same way all minority tribes in the North have Hausa as central language but have individual languages that a Hausa person cannot hear.

If you are Yoruba man that have not lived in Ondo before and come to Ilaje part of Ondo, Oga as a Yoruba man you can’t hear Ilaje.

You hear Ilaje because you are an Ondo man, a Yoruba from Osun or Oyo can’t hear Ilaje language.

abdulwastecx:
Ilaje are Yoruba not a tribe on its own. Ondo state is a state of different Yoruba group that are not of OYo stock but that doesn't make them a distinct tribe from Yoruba.

But Ilaje people can’t hear Yoruba language or can a Yoruba man hear Ilaje language. Just like in Lagos also where Egun or Awori man have their own language which Yoruba person cannot hear.

You know Yorubas successfully put all this non Yorubas tribes as Yorubas because other Nigerians don’t put division among them the same way Yorubas and the North put divisions between the Igbos and related tribes in Niger Delta because of oil.

In real situation Aworis, Eguns, Ilaje have a unique language that a Yoruba man cannot understand when they are speaking it.

Ijaw own the oil in Ondo state, there are other tribes in Ondo like Ilaje related to Yorubas and Izon related to Ijaw. Ijaw and Ilaje own Ondo but Yorubas are majority.

Flyingngel:
If Nigeria love good things and want good and robust economic policies, i can conveniently tell you our next president shld be Adesina.
That man is a moving bulldozer.
But here we are so fantastically corrupt; if you don't have billions of naira to bribe virtually everybody, don't dare seek election bet it president of governor.
The youths you by now shld take over the governance of this country are more corrupt than the old politicians.
Yahaya Bello comes to mind.

It was GEJ that your Yoruba people love to hate that appointed the man as a minister and okonjo Iweala help him to become AFDB head.

Okonjo Iweala, Peter Obi performed very well and should be made president.

Had it been that Adesina is from another tribe like SE you people will use media to run him down like Okonjo Iweala. There are many outstanding performers in SE that can be president of Nigeria.

For peace to reign in Nigeria PDP and APC should Zone their presidential candidate to SE.

Nigeria did for SW in 1999 and North in 2019, they can do it for SE without bias.

If say this truck is from SE , this thread for don reach 300 pages with Afonjas casting dust in the air.

Tinubu and co for don dey give press release of how Igbos should go back.

That is not good idea, two American citizens having their child outside US, their child is supposed to be qualified automatically as US citizen if all evidence shows that they are the real owner of the child.

For foreigners giving birth in US, their child should wait till 18 years to qualify, that is the standard in EU.

Nigeria own is the most difficult one and need to amended since you cannot be a Nigerian unless if your parents or grandparents is a Nigerian.

Old Afonja man lying and twisting history

Sellfish:
Stone Buhari in Japan and have many Pythons dance on your relatives in Eastern Nigeria

Not forgetting that it has been a while since restive Nothern Youths have killed Ibos on a large scale...and they are waiting for an excuse, no matter how lame, to butcher Ibos in Northern Nigeria....Remember they have not forgiven you guys for not voting Buhari

To whom head is given, sense is expected....

You may behave as you like in Diaspora and get away with it...but is all that misbehaviour worth the lives of your relatives in Nigeria?

Every action has a repercussion.....Ibos can wake their own fathers with a bicycle kick just like they did to Ekweremadu.that one is a problem they can settle among themselves in their Umunna village meeting...

But they should not be silly enough to export their their disrespect to Buhari...Northerners value their elders and can bring down hell for them

A word is enough for the ....

Afonja coward

Please what is the current price for Metcoppo Aluminum roof 0.45 and 0.55, location Awka.

SW is very greedy, despite occupation of their land by Fulani militias, they are holding on to Buhari at detriment of their own region.

Obasanjo from their own region recently finished 8 years in power with another 8 years of VP.
