Igboid:
Lol! This is why this thread got deserted by Ndiigbo. It gets boring repeating same things over and over again.


The Yorubas were happy to allow the North to station in Western Nigeria, Lagos in particular to plan the war against Ndiigbo and Biafra.

All the weapons the North were using were shipped in through Yoruba ports that you gladly let them have.
Yorubaland was occupied by the Nigerian military top officials from where all plans to attack Biafra from Gakem were hatched, while Awo and Yoruba leaders claimed that Yorubas were too weak to liberate Yorubaland from the Northern soldiers.

You let someone stay in your house and throw stones at my house that broke my glass, and you wonder why I headed towards your house to fish out this enemy you so happily harboured and allowed to attack me, in your warped logic, you are innocent even though you refused to throw out this enemy out of your house to show me that you don't support his actions, but rather you expected me to leave you and this enemy in your house to continue throwing stones at my house.

The invasion was to sack the Nigerian industrial complex headquarters from Yorubaland where they had camped, because Awo had claimed that Yorubaland did not have enough soldiers to sack the Northerners. Though we know better now, which is the fact that Awo was secretly in support of their occupation of Yorubaland, which is the reason no Igbo man worth his salt takes the Yoruba dubious remarks of wanting a nation of their own serious. We know that all Yorubas want is one Nigeria, for obvious reasons.

Why didn't the Westerners enter the war to sack Northerners from your lands, if you truly wanted freedom like you deceive ignorant people? For your info, Yoruba accommodating northern presence in Yorubaland translates to only one thing, you were in support of their invasion of Biafra, and nobody right here is fooled with the story of Yorubas being neutral until before the Biafra invasion of Nigeria. Yorubas were part and parcel of Nigeria and were involved in the Aburi deliberations as Nigerians, so I wonder what neutrality you speak of.


Lol! Yorubaland is mainly nupe, dahomey, Fulani, Hausa and Bini enclave.
Oduduwa, a Bini son brought civilization to primitive Bush and barbaric Yoruba people, they even rule Lagos up till today, they gave Yorubas the word "Oba", the Lagos and Ife royalty are all Bini people who just learnt Yoruba language, many Yorubas today are actually Hausa and Fulani people, who invaded the land, met primitive useless Yoruba clans and introduced Islamic civilization and principles to them, they were even the ones who gave Yorubas a common name, "Yariiiba" translating to Barbaric people, which later got corrupted to Yoruba, Yoruba/ Yarijiba has no meaning in Yoruba language and no Yoruba town bears that name.

The Rest of Yoruba people are nupes who ransacked Katunga and reigned over primitive Yoruba tribes for decades, in the process they got assimilated into Yoruba language and culture, to retain power, as they were minorities. Just as the Fulani and Hausa people who populate Kwara today, but speak Yoruba, and has Yoruba culture, that Yorubas even erroneously mis label them as Yorubas had assimilated into Yoruba language and culture, it doesn't make them Yorubas.

Perhaps this mismatch of people of different origins in the primitive Yorubaland was the reason they were all bitter towards each other and was at each other's throat fighting local fatal battles and had to beg the British to colonize them all, if only to bring Peace to the land, as the primitive Yorubas didn't evolve enough socially to learn the delicate act of peace and conflict resolutions via dialogues and negotiations.


You are silly. You were but a vassal state in 1967-70, and had no hand in that war. Your region was occupied by a Fulani-HaUSA force that manipulated you to its will, which it self was under the British manipulation, but nevertheless, used you as they wished, and you think you can speak before free people that actually fought a war? You are pathetic.
Not from an Igbo mman whose people were still learning how to wear cloth until 1921.

Politics › Re: Education: Aregbesola As An Exemplar, By Mohammed Haruna by Ofemannnu: 10:29am On Sep 07, 2016
G1gbolahan:
Last Thursday, September 1, all roads led to Osogbo, the Osun State capital. The occasion was part of the state’s celebration of the Silver Anniversary of its creation by the military president, General Ibrahim Babangida, on August 27, 1991k, along with 11 other states, namely, Abia, Adamawa, Anambra, Delta, Edo, Enugu, Jigawa, Kebbi, Kogi, Taraba and Yobe. The significance of Osun State’s celebration lied, in part, in the fact that it was the only one President Muhammadu Buhari participated in.
The president’s participation was by way of visiting a couple of the state’s newly built primary and secondary schools before finally inaugurating the Osogbo Government High School. The school must be one of the largest, most beautiful and most well equipped secondary schools in the country.
Actually the school, as the governor, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, explained in his welcoming address, is three-in-one, each with a student population of 1,000, its own principal and staff but with an overall supervising principal and sharing academic and sports facilities.
The high school may be top of the line, but it is only one of a dozen or so high schools that Governor Aregbesola has built or rebuilt as part of his comprehensive restructuring – today’s buzz word for every politician seeking relevance! – of primary and secondary school education in the state to give its students the quality education they need to transform their state from Third World status to First in one generation. (It reminds you, doesn’t it, of the famous title of the autobiography of Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore’s late prime minister, who lifted his country from Third World to First in one generation).
When Aregbesola first became the governor in November 2010, he inherited a public school system typical of public state system all over Nigeria – dilapidated, over populated, under staffed, under equipped, and badly managed schools. As a man who apparently believed the key to human progress is education, the governor resolved to end the rot.
As the man himself told it in his welcome speech on Thursday, the first step he took in ending the rot was to convene an education summit for the state chaired by no less an icon of the virtue of knowledge than Wole Soyinka, black Africa’s first Literature Nobel laureate.
Out of the summit emerged four elements for the transformation of the state’s public schools: their feeding and health programme, reclassification of the schools into elementary, middle and high schools, infrastructural development and the provision of what Americans call edtech (the use of technology to drive education), but which the state called Opon-Imo (Yoruba for tablet of knowledge) for all students.
The building of the high school President Buhari inaugurated last Thursday fell into the third category in which so far the Aregbesola administration has constructed or reconstructed 28 elementary schools, 22 middle schools and four high schools, with another 14 virtually completed.
Aregbesola was, of course, not the first to convene an educational summit. Long before him, the Northern Governors’ Forum did so in Kaduna. Individually the governors also made the right noises about ending their region’s notorious educational backwardness. To date their actions have not matched their noises. Instead, the region has dropped even further behind than it was during the First Republic.
Educationally backward as the North was back then, its leaders, with its premier, Sir Ahmadu Bello, in the forefront, walked their talk about bridging the gap between the region and the rest of the country. Meaning, they invested heavily in primary and secondary schools so that the region could produce quality materials qualified for admission into any tertiary institution anywhere in the world.
With all due humility, I can boast that I am one of those materials. I and my cousin, retired Major-General Mohammed Garba, and a childhood friend, Professor Mustapha Zubairu of Federal University of Technology, Minna, attended Native Authority primary schools in Kano, first in Tudun Wada for the first four years from 1957 and finished at Kuka Primary School after another four, having had to repeat my final year because I failed to gain entrance into a secondary school in my third year in 1963.
Kuka was located between Sabon Gari where we lived and Fagge. It was a walking distance from our home on Niger Road. All around us were Igbo and Yoruba most of whose children attended private and mission schools. In the evenings of weekdays all of us attended private lessons to improve on our chances of doing well in school. I remember we used to beat the children who went to private and mission schools in the evening classes, especially in English.
I am always amused each time people talk about the magic Chief Obafemi Awolowo performed with free education in Western Region. Of course, it was a great achievement which showed Awo’s foresight. Even then I am always amused because while the great premier of the West gave free education, in the North we were paid to go to school and we did so in hundreds of thousands, if not in millions.
The problem, I think, was that the next generation of the region’s politicians chose to pay only lip service to investment in education, especially primary and secondary education, without which invariably we could only send garbage into our tertiary schools. And as they say of computers: garbage in, garbage out.
I know this for sure because of the experience I had teaching in my alma mater, Ahmadu Bello University’s Mass Communication Department for six years until I left two years ago. During the last three of those six years, I made it a habit to test the English language of all my students, both under- and post-graduates, at the beginning of each semester.
The test was a simple one of correcting 10 sentences with errors in grammar, spelling and punctuation. The average failure rate for all the students was a dismal 70 per cent! The highest score was 8 and you could count those on your fingertips.
The conclusion is obvious; our universities have generally been taking in barely literate materials because our primary and secondary schools have suffered criminal neglect.
In giving primary and secondary education top priority to the extent of even borrowing to reform Osun State’s public education system, Aregbesola has demonstrated that he has his heart and mind in the right place. As a mutual friend, Chief Ikechi Emenike, who also witnessed Buhari’s inauguration of the Osogbo Government High School said, the governor’s educational intervention “reflected an abiding love for his people and a deep appreciation of history and his legacy.”
President Buhari summed it even better when he said in his speech the governor was only keeping the promise of the ruling party to provide free and qualitative basic education by implementing the Basic Education Act.
“What we are witnessing here today,” he said, “is the formal fulfilment of that promise in Osun by the state government. The cost effectiveness of this project can only be seen when we consider that this school will graduate an average 1,000 pupils in a year and in 50 years it would have produced 50,000 well trained and well equipped pupils, many of who will go to higher institutions and will form the backbone of the administration of our country.
Over six years ago, an award-winning columnist of the New York Times, Thomas Friedman, wrote an article which underscored the importance of quality basic education and which I have had cause to refer to on these pages and elsewhere. He titled it “ Pass the Books. Hold the Oil.”
It was published in the Times of March 10, 2012. Every politician concerned about the dismal state of our education at all levels should read that short – roughly 1,070 words – article. In it Friedman narrated how a study by rich-country club, the Organisation of Economic Cooperation and Development (O.E.C.D.), established a negative linkage between natural resource dependent countries and knowledge.
The club looked at the bi-annual test of 15-year olds in Mathematics, Science and reading comprehension in 65 countries and the total earnings of each of them as a percentage of its Gross Domestic Product. The test was called PISA, Programme for International Student Assessment.
The study, Friedman said, showed that the bigger a country’s revenue from natural resources as a percentage of its GDP, the poorer the knowledge and skills of its pupils. For example, participating Middle Eastern countries like Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, Algeria, Bahrain, Iran and Syria that were natural resource rich performed poorly compared to Lebanon, Jordan and Turkey, also in the Middle East, which were natural resource poor. So, Friedman concluded, “Oil and PISA don’t mix.”
As always there were exceptions to his thesis. Canada, Australia and Norway, also countries with high levels of natural resources, he pointed out, still scored well on PISA, in large part because all three countries had established deliberate policies of saving and investing these resource rents, and not just consuming them.
The three countries provide great lessons for us as a natural resource dependent country by showing that oil and PISA can indeed mix.
As a country we may have so far blown away our oil fortune, but clearly Aregbesola has shown as governor of one of the poorest states in the country that you don’t have to be rich to plan for the future of your children.
Superb.....A very good one for the discernibles.

The school is located at the heart of Enugu town and yet the eye of Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi always goes blind anytime he passes around the school.

A school where over 200 students are packed like sardines in just one classroom and some even sits outside to write their exams ..... A school where the structures and infrastructure s have decayed....... A school where the Enugu state government deemed it to channel all the flood waters through it and not even closing the gutters.........

It's really a big shame that the same Enugu state government is already out there commissioning new ones while the old ones owned by the government rots away.

Politics › Militant Group Issues Warning To Niger Delta Avengers . by Ofemannnu(op): 8:47pm On Sep 06, 2016
– Aggrieved Youth Movement called on the Avengers to leave the Rivers state

– The leader of the group said it ready to embrace peace and surrender

– ‘General’ Waney claimed that the group in non-violet and was never involved in kidnapping or attacks on the oil facilities


.Militant group, Aggrieved Youth Movement (AYM) has warned Niger Delta Avengers (NDA) and other militant groups to stay away from the Rivers state.

‘General’ Don Waney, leader of the group, stated that he was ready to surrender his weapons and ammunition and embrace the amnesty offered by Governor Nyesom Wike.

He advised the militant groups in the oil-rich area, comprising the NDA, to embrace peace and put an end to the destruction of oil and gas pipelines

Waney explained that any state could not achieve any form of development without peace, continuing that his group was not involved into the abduction or any other form of violence.

He said: “On a strong note, we are non-violent and we shall remain so in our collective agitation for a better ONELGA (Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni LGA), Orashi and Rivers State.

“In the light of this, we call on the Niger Delta Avengers group to leave ONELGA and Orashi region out of their targets.

“We are against the bombing and destruction of vital oil and gas installations in our communities. We shall not allow them or any of their type to enter our land.”

The Avengers have led a campaign of attacks on oil and gas facilities in the southern region since February 2016, reducing Nigeria’s oil production by hundreds of thousands of barrels and making international oil companies to briefly stop operations at different times

The militants have earlier rejected the government’s offers of talks and claims to be fighting for a greater share of Nigeria’s oil wealth.

Oil accounts for around 70% of Nigeria’s national wealth and more than 90% of the value of its exports.

Last week the militant group announced its readiness to enter into negotiations with the government after several false starts.

But you are an indigene of the FULANI REPUBLIC now.You know what a republic is,don't you?Are you going to run to the South south when your Fulani masters and owners of FULANI REPUBLIC want to use you as games as they always do?You know they own all Igboland to have put their flag there and naming it FULANI REPUBLIC.Even UNO had attested to the 21st century FULANI REPUBLIC .

Timilehin is a showcase of talent.He is the youngest serial inventor in the world.

His parents should take him to Europe before they kill his medulla oblongata.This is not the only thing he invented...

BattaBox presenter Odunayo gets to meet with possibly Nigeria’s youngest inventor Timilehin Daomi who has created a lot of great stuff including a vacuum cleaner, a water fountain,a pumping machine using scrap materials like pipes, bottles, cups etc

Please let us Yoruba people stop making statements like we are the best black people. It is a sign of inferiority complex. Let us leave thosé statements to Ibos
Thank you sir.It is just to shut off some unknowledgeable oha smelling Igbos' mouths who always inundate us with fake reports and assertions of their brilliance and greatness.Just the fact that Igbos are still learning how to wear clothes in 1921 confirm them as one dull black people who have a lot of catching up to do.
They cannot even compare with the Ashantis,Zulus etc talkless of the great Yoruba Nation.
I am sorry if I have offended some discernible and great Igbos.Pls,accept my apologies.

These are some great clothings of the Yoruba...

The Yoruba have legendary types of clothes that make them distinct from other cultures around them. They take immense pride in their attire, for which they are well known. Clothing materials traditionally come from processed cotton by traditional weavers. They believe that the type of clothes worn by a man depicts his personality and social status, and that different occasions require different clothing outfits.

Typically, The Yoruba have a very wide range of materials used to make clothing, the most basic being the Aṣo-Oke, which is a hand loomed cloth of different patterns and colors sewn into various styles.[115] and which comes in very many different colors and patterns. Aso Oke comes in three major styles based on pattern and coloration;

Alaari – a rich red Aṣọ-Oke,
Sanyan- a brown and usual light brown Aṣọ-Oke, and
Ẹtu- a dark blue Aṣọ-Oke.
Other clothing materials include but are not limited to:

Ofi- pure white yarned cloths, used as cover cloth, it can be sewn and worn.
Aran- a velvet clothing material of silky texture sewn into Danṣiki and Kẹmbẹ, worn by the rich.
Adirẹ- cloth with various patterns and designs, dye in indigo ink (Ẹlu or Aro)
