I donated pampers to the camp when I read that all the men that encountered Fulanis in the Oyo forests, were in need of pampers in the refugee camp. Since then they have been updating me on an hourly basis on what's happening in the camp. grin

They probably live there and already in the long morning queue for sugar-less akamu and kolanut, while surfing nairaland on a phone they stole from an Igbo aid worker helping out traumatised Yoruba refugees.

My chestbeating friend, all this is stories.

25 already dead and more coz some are wounded and might not make it.

I have a question:

Would you rather eat Salad in an IDP camp or have your neck cut off by marauding Fulani killers like your kinsmen in the news today?

I will rather kill Fulanis trespassing into my land.

As someone from a typically cowardly tribe, the options you came up with are those that are obvious to your kind.

Ebonyi is an APC state with an APC governor. Umahi can go and keep selling APC to his hapless citizens.
Your people voted in the Fulani government, so your situation is far more pitiful. The government that you brought in has exiled your people to IDP camps while Fulanis are taking over your lands as we speak.

Lol coward approach. Do Miyetti Allah always claim responsibility for killing? The press is the one that always attribute it to them so I find it rather amusing that an Igbo man is waiting on Miyetti to confirm that they killed 25 of his kinsmen in a barbaric mutilating way online.

The fear of igbos? They fear Igbos and they entered your territory to kill 25 people at once? See me see joke o. Nowhere in Yorubaland will you ever see that much casualty by the Fulanis at once.

Lol, Islamic school my foot. It’s better to be in IDP than being send to the deepest part of hell in number of 25 by marauding Fulani herdsmen.

I rather eat salad in Benin IDP camp than lie on the ground with my legs and head cut off.


If it were you, what will you choose?
And yet thousands of your people are in IDP camps.
Umahi is in your political party. When he was in PDP, no such thing happened in his state. Let us hear what the APC government will say about this killings.

In anyway you look at it, Ebonyi is still firmly in Igbo hands. Ilorin is no longer in Yoruba hands

If it have happened somewhere else they will come here to make mouth that it can't happen in Igbo land because of ESN. They said herdsmen are no more in Igboland because ESN have killed them all Iam totally surprised that Fulani herdsmen can still do this under ESN watch.
What about the police and army that have been claiming to have annihilated ESN? Why didn't they go and protect Ebonyi people from Fulani terrorists.

They even have some fake confessions, and showing how they have been helping to curb ESN activities. Yet they are making no attempt at curbing the activities of real terrorists.

What of Umahi that is neck deep in APC, a government that turns the other way when Fulani terrorists come to kill his people.
He is in alliance with a Fulani government that are bent on making sure ESN is not allowed to protect Igbos.

Let us hear what he will say in response to this attack on his people. He is part of a government that has been working hard to leave Igboland unprotected, by attacking ESN. Now that he has succeeded in reducing ESN influence in Ebonyi, what did he do to protect his people now that real Fulani terrorists visited his people?

ESN bleeped up by attacking Security personnel if they limit their operations to the bush. Their disbandment won't have come that quick.
RIP to the soul lost
ESN did not bleep up. The security agencies attacked ESN in Orlu, way before the unknown gunmen started hitting the security personnel. The army and the police killed, tortured and raped unarmed IPOB people in Obigbo.

Umahi is now in Buhari's party, and he has attracted the Fulani rampage now going on in his dormain.
He, along with Buhari's security people, are vehemently against ESN. So Umahi will have to request for Fulani security personnel to protect his state.

Umahi has been telling everyone that wishes to listen, that Buhari's the best thing to ever happen to Nigeria. Let us see what this APC governor will now say, in response to the mayhem he helped bring into his state, by giving APC control of his state

All these IDP camp dwellers. Notice how Miyetti Allah are not too quick to claim responsibility. Ask yourself why. Fulanis know that the fear of Igbos is the beginning of wisdom.

Ebonyi can help themselves by removing all those islamic schools they allowed to be installed in Ebonyi, and also get rid of their APC Fulani-loving governor. That will help to reduce their pain. But they are still much better than Yorubas who now live in IDP camps in another country

Their rampaging has reduced since ESN came online. It was the Yorubas and Fulanis that brought the Fulanis to power, and right now you are in your IDP camp in Republic of Benin and wasting your data.

ESN was brought in to check the activities of Fulani herdsmen. If Fulanismove into ordinary terrorism, another outfit could be formed to also annihilate them. Fulanis that live in town could be endangered by this action. That is what Igbos do. They devise solutions. They don't go to IDP camps in Benin republic.

Next Osogbo belongs to Ijaws

No ooni yahoo king is claiming Ugbo people are Igbo...what the hell
Do Ugbo people also have an Eze Nri?

Don't you think it makes better sense for me to believe the historical opinion of Ooni of Ife, than by a person named HOTWAX grin grin grin

You have to know Igbos are way too ancient. MDW Jeffreys even recorded that Eze Nri Obalike (the last true Eze Nri in the mould of ancient Eze Nris) crowned Oba of Benin.

The title OBA, is an Umu Nri title. The title is born by Nri people and some other Igbos now. The departed Eze Nri Obidiegwu Onyesoh, was an Oba, before he ascended the ancient royal stool as Eze Nri Enwelana II, in honour of his great grand father who was the Eze Nri Enwelana I.

Igbos are way more ancient that Igodomigodo (which is even an Nri offshoot), Benin and Ife.

The real estate is in the hands of the Yorubas and foreign investors and if you want to contest this I am down for it. Which big business ownership please? Corporations? 2by 2 shops? Or what exactly?

I hate empty chest beating because it makes my stomach turn. You should know I don’t tolerate lies and misinformation. I burst lies for a living.



Funniest things is that I have always thought you at least have some better brainpower than most of your kinsmen on Nairaland but it turns out to be the usual myopic mindset most of you guys are known for.

Here is a tribe that almost millions of them were conquered both policy wise and military strategic wise by the Yoruba. The war was won by the Yorubas and I find it amusing that you haven’t learnt from the mistake of your ancestors.

I know Igbos will always be empty braggarts. Ojukwu chestbeated more than that before running like a coward with Biafra surrendering to OBJ. His stupidity cost him millions of his kinsmen so I hope the new generation learn from his mistakes. Unfortunately you guys don’t!

Lol, you’re even begging PDP to field a Northerner. That’s shows you that the Igbos have been psychologically battered and made to feel less of themselves. A majority tribe that slaved for PDP for several decades can’t even muster the courage to fight for the presidency but cowardly queue behind the same hegemony that have kept them captive.

Politics is local, Edo speak what they want just like Oyo speak what they wanted with Makinde. Is that all you can muster as a rebuttal to Tinubu might? This sound like a joke.

If we can attribute the failure of APC in each state captured by PDP to Tinubu, then you should as well afford him the success of states captured by APC. Now measure the difference and you’ll know why he’s still called the Jagaban!

I know it hurts that a major tribe like Igbo can’t ask for APC or PDP ticket thereby resorting to gnashing their teeth online daily and suffering from Tinubu hate syndrome.

Let’s even say Asiwaju turns out a failure, does that translate to an Igbo presidency? Even Wike stand more chance than any Igbo man, dead or alive!
The war was definitely not won by Yorubas.

The Yorubas will never confront the Igbos alone. Iyasikwa. The Fulanis will never confront the Igbos alone. The Fulanis need Nigeria before they can confront the Igbos. Th same goes for Yorubas.

That is specifically why Miyetti will talk Down on Yorubas, but they will show an iota of respect to the Igbos.
That is why the Fulanis conquered Yorubas alone and took Ilorin.

No ethnic group in Nigeria has what it takes to confront the Igbos alone, Talk less of Yorubas that are born cowards.
One requires the resources of Nigeria marshalled from Dodan Barracks or Aso Rock to be able to face the Igbos.
For Fulanis, they only require a microphone from a forest to conquer Yorubas.

I read that a bunch of female warriors from Dahomey even beat up Yorubas. Benin women never tried that with us. In fact the Nri-Igbos authorised the crowning of any ancient Ogiso or Oba, according to NRI records, and NRI remains the cultural compass of Benin, which is why Benin people still pay psychological homage to the four market day deities owned by the Nris, who are bonafide Igbos.
All this was happening when a single Fulani herdsman was sodomising the Yoruba rulers of Ilorin and making Ilorin and all its Yoruba inhabitants, their bitches.

Igbos rock

This is the usual jargons you guys regurgitate. I don’t have time for back and forth.

The slaves know themselves. They are those that are majority groups but trampled upon and told to do their worse. Begging to be free from the days of their ancestors but yet held in the union against their will. Slavery is being kept in chains against your will and that depict the Ibo man story in Nigeria.

Slavery is subjecting millions of an ethnic group to psychological torture. A torture inflicted upon generations inherited by offsprings and a defeat that cut deep in their psyche. That’s slavery!

They guys have been defeated before, rendered into empty braggarts and online wailers.

I always like when Igbo wail, chestbeat, and try to compensate for their many failures by projecting a false might while in real time they are just low self esteemed psychological battered people who just bark without bite.

Exactly how Ojuku thought himself more than a fly then before he was pummeled into submission.

Tinubu is an enigma that no politician of Igbo origin can lace his shoes when you talk of influence. I know it hurts, but it is what it is!

I repeat, your gas will be controlled by the FG. If you guys misbehave you will be hammered into submission. You have been defeated before and the template can still be used because nothing has really changed.
There is a huge difference between MUCH OF and MOST OF. Perhaps my use of MUCH OF was misunderstood by you.

Anyway Igbos are not invisible when it comes to Nollywood, real estates, small and medium business ownership, big business ownership in Lagos.

I don't have to engage you on some nonexistent Yoruba bravery when your generals are known to kneel and grovel before mere Fulani army majors.

You are probably even replying from your refugee camp in Benin Republic.

I want you to also realise that if PDP fields a northerner, Tinubus dreams will lie in tatters. Your chestbeating will come to nought.
Tinubus political be all and end all, centres around him with his lips firmly planted on Fulani backside. Nothing more nothing less. Anybody can do that.

He only has electoral value in the SW. Simple strategic nominations can easily crumble his political sand castle. Look at how a mere Amaechi humiliated him. Look at how Edo people rejected him and his fellow monkey lookalike from Edo politics. Edo no be Lagos, and very shortly he will learn that Nigeria no be Lagos

Bro all you wrote up there is all just empty bragging, it holds no weight.

The power that be knows the Igbos can be tamed, even the PDP don’t rate you guys. Your problem is you believe too much in fist thinking that is strength.

If you guys are that important, both parties would have been begging you with their presidency slot since 1979 but the reverse is the case. They know you are just being used to fill the void.

On paper you are major ethic group but in reality you are just one of the minority in the scheme of things.

You can’t bully a Yoruba man especially when he’s loved by his people. Zik tried it and failed and I don’t see what any Igbo can do to a Yoruba president in 2023 if he emerges.

Lastly, Igbo gas will be controlled by the FG, you will all be hammered into submission whether by force or by will. The last thing you can do is to declare secession and we both know how that will end without the necessary support from the Yorubas.

I know it hurts, but that’s the truth!
With regards to the bolded, all that you mentioned is as a result of federal presence, after all much of what you mentioned in that paragraph are provided by Igbos, who are not technically from Lagos. Federal presence provides amenities and the wherewithal that attracts people. You only just proved my point.
So any coastal town with the same federal presence as Lagos will be as vibrant as Lagos also.

There is a reason your people run to Benin Republic at the slightest trouble from the Fulanis. That's because Yorubas are Lilly livered and Fulanis also know that.
That is also why Fulanis will always prefer Yoruba presidency to Igbo presidency because they can bully your people into submission. Put simply, Yorubas are Fulani's slaves, known to be willing to undermine other southern groups just to be fed with crumbs, by their Fulani masters.
They did it against GEJ in 2015. They are poised to do it against Igbos in 2023

During the endsars protest, Tinubu was already running helter skelter from his shadow as he figured Igbos were coming after him. His supporters reminded Igbos that Tinubu was solely existing within the Yoruba sphere.
If Tinubu connives with the Fulanis to take a slot that belongs to the Igbos, all bets will be off. By that action Tinubu will be announcing that he is anti-Igbo. Igbos will now be within their rights to come after him. He will not be able to get away with it. He has already fired his salvo via Doyin Okupe.

ESN that is just a few weeks old is proving a handful to the Nigerian security forces, and they are only detailed to handle the Fulani herdsmen menace. By 2023, more offensive capabilities will be developed by perhaps a more dangerous eastern group. And Igbos have the testicular fortitude to go after presidents and prime minister's in the past, when the provocation was low. The 2023 provocation will be off the scale, and consequences will be born by responsible parties. Igbos be talknado. And 1966 will definitely not be 2023.

Once again, Igbos will not hand over their gas reserves to a country and countrymen that have shown themselves to be immensely wicked and unperturbed about Igbo concerns,. This includes any Yoruba or Fulani 2023 president.

Lagos bring to the Nigeria purse far more than any SE state ever brought so it deserves the allocation it is getting from the center. In fact it deserves more than that.

Like I said, I always value facts and statistics more, I’ll look for it later when I’m free about what allocation that was given to the states known as Igbo states then compared to the SW to infer my own judgement.

Forget about the Fulani for once, the president of Nigeria has the power to control the gas in any region in as much as Nigeria remain one.

There is only two things the Igbo can do, either play the politics and enter the center to control things or continue to clamor for Biafra and hope one day it will come to fruition.

In as much as you remain part of Nigeria, there is little ESN could do to overpower the FG. If Buhari want to control the resources in the East, he will and nothing will happen.

They will first use the carrot approach and grant amnesty to dissenting militia forces, if that fails they will buy the politicians, if that fails they will send the military guys to quell the uprising.

Lastly, don’t get me wrong, I have said times without numbers that the Igbos have the right to take derivatives from the gas because it’s on their land BUT in as much as Nigeria is one, the gas will be controlled by the FG.
There is nothing that Lagos is bringing in to the centre that any other coastal town, when given the same sort of federal attention, won't bring in. So you are still proving my point.

Now getting back on Igbos playing federal politics, if the rest of Nigeria don't want to adhere to the zoning arrangement, there is little that the east can do. However, what the east can do, and no other section of Nigeria will be able to match them in intensity, is that Igbos will apply whatever experience they have gained in Nigeria, in organising an almighty resistance that the whole of Nigeria will not be able to contain.

2023 is just around the corner, and if it comes without Nigeria following the zoning formulae and instead chooses to elect someone from a zone that has had its turn, that will be the most cumbersome psychological load for that president to carry, and there will be nothing such a president will be able to do to pacify the east.
Such a president would effectively be placing a target on himself, as the whole Igbo world, be it IPOB, the restructuring proponents, the one Nigerianists, ESN and a yet to be formed more dangerous violent movement, will see it as their sacred duty to snuff the life, out not such a president.
Such a president will be seen by the Igbos as someone bent on keeping Igbos down. Already, Tinubu through Doyin Okupe has fired the first shot, by almost encouraging the Fulanis not to forgive the Igbos for killing Ahmadu Bello. This his act will become more prominent as the months and years roll by. It will germinate and yield its fruits.

Any non-Igbo president that shows up in 2023 will be the most tragic. Mark this statement. The psychological burden will be so great for Igbos not to act. It is a milestone that has never been crossed. Perhaps the only zone that will escape the Igbo wrath will be a SS presidency as they have only really served for 5 years at the centre.
No Yoruba president will physically survive on that that seat for another 8 years. Not after OBJ has already had the Yoruba slot for 8 years. You will see.

Lest I forget, no 2023 Yoruba president will be able to benefit from any pinch of Igbo gas. That is when you will know that Igbos can wield a lot of violent influence, and there is nothing anyone will be able tondo about it.

What is the population of the SE states and landmass area? I mean the SE inhabitant population and not the Igbos as an ethnic group.

You shouldn’t forget there are vast numbers of Igbos with sanctuary in most of those other states feeding on the allocation and sometimes employed into the civil services of those states.

I am not sure there has been anytime the Yorubas are getting double the allocation of the SE. if there is any evidence pointing to that please let me know and I can learn too.

As per the gas sector, Igbos can always do what they want by asking for some derivatives. It is their right so I don’t think that should be up for argument.
Remember that when there was only Imo and Anambra state in the SE, there was Ogun, Ondo, Oyo and Lagos in the SW.

Out of all the states in Nigeria, Lagos has had the greatest federal attention. Lagos is a Yoruba state.

The whole of the SE has not had up to one-tenth the federal attention that Lagos has had. Add this to the fact that the remaining 3 western states, also have more federal attention than the whole of the SE. So. Y various orders of magnitude, the SE is being short-changed.

Now even though there is a sizeable population of Igbos in Lagos, they are not the decision-makers of the state as they don't control political power there. It is ultimately controlled by the Yorubas, which is why Tinubus family members are the Babalojas and Iyalojas of markets physically dominated by Igbos.

Igbos have been short-changed seriously, and the current consciousness will make it impossible for the Fulanis to control the SE gas as the Niger Delta people allowed them to control their oil

Yes, ESN can always vent their anger about that if igbos don’t get lion share from the gas and they will be justified just as the ND militant were justified in their clamor.
How many SE states are you talking about?
Also realise that in much of the 70s and 80s, Yoruba states were double the Igbo states. So Yorubas and Hausa/Fulanis were getting more than double of the oil windfall, in spite of the fact that huge chunks of those oil bearing Niger Delta territories are Igbo: speaking.
