I can't imagine that you guys have gone this desperate and low to downplay KANU. kanu is indeed a legend. If you are so concerned about London Guildhall College which is now part of the London Metropolitan University, go and investigate kanu's Certificate Yourself. Jobless youths looking for another man's Certificate. |
BlackMbakara1:there questions that shouldn't be dignified with a response. I see you are a zombie too. don't worry, I have noticed you. |
Yyeske:*Ignored* |
BlackMbakara1:another demon unleashing his own hate speech. kanu is not Nigerias problem. Every sincere person knows this. am not into blind patriotism. when a country refuses to change I opt for a better one. it's not a call for war. buhari and APC got into power through hate speech. we can't forget. so you are barking at the wrong tree. |
On Blind Patriotism by ofai: 11:32pm On Sep 04 What many people fail to acknowledge is that the pro-biafrans were once patriotic Nigerians. they once believed in a Nigeria where everyone had some sense of belonging. A Nigeria that will be just, fair and equitable regardless of religious and ethnic affiliations. 50 years of a failed post war national experiment is no more a joke. Its not funny. Nigeria's mode of existence was negotiated between our founding fathers, NOT imposed. the patriotism of our founding fathers wasn't a blind one. they had their terms of national engagement. if Nigeria must work, it must be properly negotiated, nobody wants to settle for less. Everyone wants a fair deal. Today people talk about Nigeria as though it is non negotiable. the foolish ones do much worse, they engage in blind patriotism. They see the sorry state of Nigeria as their fate, they would rather sink with the Titanic ship than find an escape route. They see the fraud and hypocrisy having a field day, yet they do little about it. Sincerely fix the country, they won't. okay, some are willing to fix the system by negotiating Nigeria's mode of existence, they antagonize them. Now some want outright seperation, these blind patriots are calling for their heads. they are those who try to defeat a project before allowing it to operate. I owe no allegiance to a country that is not ready to make things right for it's citizens. I owe no allegiance to a country that can't protect me. Some so called patriots will even readily drop their Nigeria for another country when given the opportunity. I owe no allegiance to a country whose leadership are bent on dividing the citizenry with their speeches, actions and inaction. There is so much brain drain in the country due to the fraud and hypocrisy in the system. I don't believe in blind patriotism. if there is sincerity on the part of Nigerias leadership to fix Nigeria regardless of economic challenges, there won't be escalated agitations. A true patriot is not a blind patriot. NIGERIA wants blind patriotism. they won't get it from me. If they don't restructure the faulty system, I won't settle for less. I will go for a whole new and carefully negotiated biafra. Thank you NNAMDI KANU for rising to the occasion. |

9jabull:I understand your standpoint. We are together. I wasn't referring to Nigeria's existence, am referring to it's MODE OF EXISTENCE. |

TundeHashim:this caution would have made sense if the Nigerian patriots understood that a call for BIAFRA is not a call for war. Before now, biafra was seen as a taboo, the word biafra was seen as treason. Americans were at least humane, same for India, but Nigeria? it's something else. shooting at armless protesters is nothing humane or even civil. |

TundeHashim:kanu's methods may have flaws, but his cause is justified. kanu made such utterances to get attention, it worked for him, he was jailed partly because of it. kanu is reacting to all the fraud and hypocrisy that has jaundiced his people. kanu's methods are vents of bitterness towards the leaders all over the country including igboland. He believes ANYONE against BIAFRA is against his peoples freedom from years of systemic oppression. Anyway, he has assured that his unbridled attack on other people will stop. however, he will verbally attack anyone aiding or abetting directly or indirectly against the BIAFRA referendum agenda. kanu is not Nigerias problem. Every sincere person knows this. |

Gourdoinc:Say that to the man in the mirror. |
TheCabal:You are barking at the wrong tree. Our lanes are different. Maintain your lane Biko. |
trueconscience:Another stupid false alarmist. You can over sensationalise for all we care. Your wannabe Propaganda is so lame. |
Some yorubas are still hinging on the post civil war recent past to make up their "most educated group" stance. They still make noise about the erudite wole soyinka 1986 Nobel prize award and ekiti number of professorships. This is 2017, check these out: 1. Bennett Omalu, the renowned igbo pathologist who discovered CTE disease was given the highest medical award in America in 2016. He now has dual citizenship of Nigeria and the US. He is from Anambra state. 2. Samuel Achilefu, the renowned biomedical scientist who invented CANCER SEEING GOGGLES. In 2014 he was awarded the prestigous St Louis award. His currently enjoys several international grants. He is an Abia man. 3. In 2016, Kalu Ogbureke, a maxiofacial surgeon, was the FIRST MAN OF AFRICAN DESCENT TO be awarded the KING JAMES IV PROFESSORSHIP CHAIR. He is from Abia State. He is an immigrant in US but works in the UK as well. These are recent prestigious awards given to igbos, not dating before 2012. Back home, IMO STATE has overtaken EKITI in the HIGHEST number of professorships in Nigeria. ABIA STATE Now dominate WAEC results, overtaking ANAMBRA state. ENUGU and ANAMBRA STATE follows in terms of professorships. EBONYI STATE has maintained to a large extent a strong rivalry for the top WAEC states in Nigeria. |

TheCabal:Am amazed that a human being can vomit these trash. No facts. No figures. Just trash. |
totit:too bad. noise noise noise. **ignores you** |
totit:stupid question from a defeated coward. Google Thomas sowell before vomiting trash. |
totit:Oh so the eminent Thomas sowell is now "yeye"? Like I said you are so so pathetic and insecure. |
You can hate me for all I care. The fact is that the yorubas are falling academically in Nigeria while igbos are the ones often cited when it comes to Black intelligence. |
totit:https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=%23&ved=0ahUKEwjEnu7ilorWAhWFZFAKHfH_AogQxa8BCCIwAA&usg=AFQjCNF1sHlk2z9QIx28jtvfnGP_UlkifA Type "Thomas sowell on Igbos" in YouTube if you can get it through the link I sent. |
totit:empty link? you are indeed sick. your rabble rousing won't change the fact that igbos are being TOUTED as the most intelligent blacks |
totit:You are just shallow and insecure. Which tribe was projected in the article as against whites and Asians? You are pathetic. Igbos are cited more even as black minority models in America. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=%23&ved=0ahUKEwjEn4yvjYrWAhWMbVAKHYbRDpMQwqsBCDwwCA&usg=AFQjCNF1sHlk2z9QIx28jtvfnGP_UlkifA |
totit:Obviously you don't understand English. Igbos are TOUTED in some quarters as being the most intelligent blacks. All you could do was to quote DAILY TRUST, hausafulsni anti-igbo media outlet to "debunk" my statement. Insecure fool. Go and read Thomas sowell books on Igbos. You are so shallow |
Demzlent:Eat kanu, sleep kanu, breathe kanu. Una no dey tire? |
totit:If you don't know the meaning of my statement, just ask Try and comprehend just a sentence pls. By the way, click on this and shut up: http://newsrescue.com/blacks-especially-igbos-prove-more-intelligent-than-whites-including-the-asian-leaders/#axzz4rej5cezi |
If not for the civil war, eastern nigeria would have been eons away from the rest of Nigeria. Now we are bouncing back to our rightful place due to our diehard spirit. Even in diaspora, igbos specifically have been distinguished among black Africans by their academic success. They are even touted as the most intelligent people in the black race. |
