ok.. You're so powerful that you were fasting and praying when they struck you while some of your governors were paying them off not to retaliate in some occasion.

i dey laff ur chestbeating.

kiss the truth!

Nwokem,. FUNAM just threatened the whole Yoruba race, and you are here measuring d!cks with the great Igbo race.

They killed the Afenifere leader's daughter, and raped and violated the wife of one of your traditional rulers, and the best you can do is to challenge Igbos.

Fulani terrorists already know Igboland is not a soft touch for them. Igbos kill and dismember, and can't wait to avenge the killings in OYIGBO. Fulanis know this and are avoiding any confrontation with Igbos like a plague, right now

Gabkosh:
Who is governing Kwara as a whole. Did Ilorin ever had oba before. You too dence.


Fasting and prayer warriors.

Fulanis appreciate this point. Their cultural subjugation and sodomisation of Yorubas in Kwara must be accepted because of the bolded point you made above. Yorubas in Ilorin never had traditional rulers

ObiOfOnistha:
You mean your wives in Igbo land normally control you like mumu, is that why your governors quickly ban IPOB group and killed them in Enugu and Oyigbo, how many fulani herdsmen are there in the south east sef, fulani herdsmen don't take their herds to barren drought ridden land where there isn't green grass to eat, you can even compare south east with south west, more than 30% of igbos are in South West looking for green pasture, if anything breaks out you will suffer more, because you are more in their land than any tribe.

There was as many Fulani terrorists in the east as there are in the west. The only difference is that Fulani terrorists are more scared of Igbos than they are, of Yorubas.
Fulanis and Babangida don't seem to take Yoruba threats seriously

Gabkosh:
I guess you have ball, that why you and your governor declared fasting and prayers in Enugu when Fulani attacked your towns.

And in spite of the castings and prayers in Enugu, every community in Enugu is still being ruled by an IGWE.

OBAS don't rule Ilorin

TimeManager:
Stay on the topic.
Why is He Weeping on camera based on the recent warnings issued to him & his people. Can such ever happen in iboland?

kiss the truth!

It can't happen in Igboland because no part of Igboland isnruled by a Fulani emir.
For the Fulani in Igbo forests, there is no time to weep. They only have time for running away.


Otherwise they will be beheaded and their bodies desecrated before being burnt and their skills used in some weird JuJu match

ObiOfOnistha:
Have you done anything against Fulanis? Except the viral video of the Ebonyi state eviction which coward Ebonyi state governor quickly bribed the fulani herdsmen chairman to refute and deny the report, but in ondo state, it is the governor of the state despite political affiliation not minding the consequences, the mere Arewa youths threatened you to leave their lands

The Ondo IGBO first lady is the sole reason, the Ondo governor seems to be showing some balls.

Kwara is culturally and religiously led by the Fulanis.

FUNAM did not threaten ESN for banning Fulani terrorists from Igbo and SS forests. Today the whole Yoruba states are quaking in their boots, as their traditional master's are not happy with the ballsy statement by the Ondo governor ( induced by his Igbo wife )

TimeManager:
But their seriki fulani dey weep like a baby in oyo because fear dey catch him. Such can not happen in igboland because none of your governors can never dare give them a quit notice.

kiss the truth!

Their sarki in Ilorin is ruling your ass in Yorubaland.
Every part of Igboland is ruled by Ndigbo.

Meanwhile FUNAM has threatened every Yoruba state, not just Ondo and Oyo. They didn't have to threaten Kwara as it is already A Fulani culturally led state

ObiOfOnistha:
We are not baby factory ritualists, keep your threat for them

Neither MACBAN nor FUNAM will threaten an Igbo state with such intensity as is exhibited in the report.

ESN was launched a few weeks ago and ESN has always made it clear they are against Fulanis meandering throughout Igbo forests, yet we have not heard PIM from FUNAM or MACBAN.

They well know ESN is not partnering with the Fulani controlled Nigerian police, and are likely to behead and burn any Fulani terrorist they capture in eastern forests

Meanwhile Buhari's younger sister is 81 years old

I have just been informed that Dr. Ajagu and some of his relatives were heavily pro-Biafran during the war. Please can someone confirm.

What this means is that it is likely Nicholas's father would have passed on his pro-Biafran beliefs to his son Nick, who is married to the US vice president's niece

It is a WIN WIN situation for Igbos.

Our in-laws are about to take over

kilisi:
There are many Fulanis here masquerading as Yorubas to attack igbos

Very very plausible

The Nigerian Army’s counter-insurgency operation, Lafiya Dole Theatre Command has arrested a middle-aged man, Samuel Chikwedum, who is alleged to be the supplier of logistics for Boko Haram terrorists in Borno State.

Army operatives caught Chikwedum while travelling to Baga town, heading towards the Lake Chad region with contraband goods.

After he was paraded before journalists, his goods and vehicle were destroyed.

So they just arrested a used tyre seller who even owns a shop. It's clear this is just a setup by the Fulani controlled federal government and the Fulani dominated security and intelligence network.

Ask yourself why Buhari did not see it fit to appoint a single easterner to head even one of th many security or intelligence organisations. So they can be cooking up these lies with no one to challenge them.

TheStakeHolder:
Who we go blame now?

GEJ

Unseen:
You're missing the point.
Recently Miyetti Allah asked to join Amotekun. I am not sure if that request was granted.
But you see this South East Governors, they will secretly recruit Fulani in the security outfit.
Because the South East Governors cannot be trusted. Any security outfit they formed need to be treated as a Fulani outfit.
When people clamoured for a South East security outfit they kept mute.
Now that ESN has started operation, they now started forming security outfit.
That shows they are acting according to instructions.

You are making some salient points, but Kanu's strategy would have been to shut up.
Let the SE governor's form their security outfit. I guarantee you that that security outfit will become irrelevant after about 3 months.
Easterners will come to see that this security outfit is just an appendage to the Fulani-controlled police and will be run out of town by Ndigbo

dignity33:
I'm Igbo but I disagree on the way Nnamdi Kanu is going about on this Biafra struggle. Setting up ESN is a welcome development but always imposing your wishes on million of Igbos without hearding an advice from other Igbo leaders I totally disagree on that. He was Uwazurike second man, when he left no body called him names like he is calling others today he should learn to be diplomatic. Why will anybody that have different views from Nnamdi kanu be called saboteur you can't know it all, Igbos is one of the ancient tradition that practice what today know as democracy, Igbos never have a single individual making supreme dicision. Nnamdi kanu should henceforth desist from calling himself supreme leader because Igbos never have anything like supreme leader and it wouldn't start from him. ESN can't operate without the backing of South Eastern Governor, he should learn how to be constructive not always destroying everything, Those men can not be hidden from bushes risking their life from criminal and at the same time Nigeria security men, where will they keep any criminal arrested, in the bush or hand them to Nigeria security ?

Some time ago, I made it quite clear that Kanu can never be my leader. Talk about total lack of foresight, an irresistible urge by him to always back a loosing strategy. One step forward two steps backward.

While the creation of ESN is not necessarily a bad idea, his leadership of it compromises it somewhat. He is not a security expert and should not be leading that organisation. Amotekun that he always likes to liken ESN to, is headed by security experts.

But his megalomaniac personality will blind him to this structural deficiency, just because he feels he needs to lead ESN to make him relevant. A decision that will undoubtedly send some of these ESN operatives to their early graves needlessly in then very near future.
ESN could have been led by another Igbo nationalist security expert, who is not encumbered by the IPOB tag, but well trusted by easterners. IPOB and other eastern organisations can then be funding ESN. Such a structure would have made it easier for the eastern governments to support, while the sponsorship structure will make it an impossibility for the organisation to be subsumed by the current Nigerian security outfits.

Fastforward to now that the SE governments are now talking about setting up a security outfit, now Kanu is issuing toothless ultimatums that he cannot back up, thus setting ESN up for a massive failure. Kanu's part in the massacre of Obigbo people has not been totally forgotten, and here he is, setting up another massive failure opportunity for ESN.
Does ESN have enough surface to air missiles to knock out the Nigerian airforce? Does ESN have enough heavy amour piercing projectiles to bog down the Nigerian mechanised divisions?
But because talk is cheap, he is here talking nonsense yet again.

Another point of importance being that Igbos are democratic people and don't tolerate dictatorships. Kanu may have his opinions, other Igbos will have their opinions. So he mustn't think that Igbos are zombies that can be blackmailed by the saboteur tag that he bandies carelessly at people who don't share the same views as him.

During the time of Obasanjo, oil was much cheaper than it is now that Buhari is the president, yet things are far worse now.

Petrol is now nearly N170 per litre

Electricity tariff is now more than double, what it was during the era of Obj and GEJ

A Bag of Rice is nearly triple the cost, now that Buhari is the president

Banditry, Fulani herdsmen terrorism are now very rampant e.t.c

The judiciary is now a department of the executive.

Mediocrity and Nepotism all over the place. A fulani judge couldn't even make it past the low level ICC exams. ICC led by an Igbo justice. Can you imagine

BabaOwen:
He was killed by Ikwerres.

He was killed by Ijaws

BabaOwen:
Do you know why is father was killed by the ikwerres?

Sen. Obi Wali was allegedly killed by Ijaws

Deadlytruth:
It seems you didn't read through my comment carefully. As at the day Ironsi was toppled and killed, Ojukwu, Hassan and Ejoor were in charge of groups of powerless and center dependent provinces and not regions.

This is what you don't understand about resource control; in SS2 Government textbooks the civil service is defined as the only lawfully recognized institution by which any government carries out her duties. It is the civil service that a government uses to generate revenues from the resources found within her domain and deploys it to pay salaries, sponsor capital projects, etc.... meaning that a state or region controls her resource through her civil service institution.
Now, after taking away from the regions their civil services through Decree 34, how exactly were the regions supposed to be able to continue generating and controlling their resources and utilizing same in keeping to their duties?
Once the civil service became centralized by Ironsi, all the revenues they generated from their former regional domains automatically started being remitted to the center. Ask yourself if a civil servants in a federal parastatal located in, say, Enugu today can generate revenue and remit it to the Enugu State Government without being dismissed mmediately if Abuja discovers.

Again, ask yourself how Ironsi would have been able to as military HOS continue paying the salaries of the now enlarged national civil service if the former regional civil servants kept on remitting revenues to the regional governors despite now being under the control of the national military Government. Where exactly on earth does that happen?

If I am reading you right, I believe one of your major points is that the then REGIONS became PROVINCES. And not that Ironsi set about to create new provinces irrespective of the then regions. If I am right in my assumption of your point above, then we are definitely on the same page with regards to that point.

Now there is a whole world of difference between SUSPENSION and ABROGATION. That Ironsi suspended certain clauses in the constitution so that he can run a military-friendly government, does not in anyway mean that it is now permanent.

When the northerners planned and carried out the genocide of July 1966, if they were so aggrieved about Ironsi's unitary government, why didn't they immediately lift the suspension placed on the federation clause and ensuring it wasn't changed over the decades that followed?

Why did Gowon and the subsequent governments make permanent, the financial.castration of states, especially now that we are supposedly running a civilian democratic government?

Even Ojukwu asked for confederation in Aburi, yet Gowon and Awolowo-led Nigerian government rejected it in favour of the current unitary government.

Don't get me wrong, I have not one single respect for Ironsi. I see him like the current Enugu governor Ugwuanyi, who are just houseboy materials and have no business being in government.

That's why I'm not super enthusiastic about semi illiterates like Peter Obi or Orji Kali taking the Igbo presidential slot.
I prefer more versatile and highly educated individuals like Prof. Kingsley Muoghalu, Soludo or Ngozi Okonjo Iweala doing the honours, as they will be more proactive in avoiding political banana peels

Deadlytruth:
Wrong! Ojukwu, Fajuyi, Hassan and Ejoor being governors of subnational units under Ironsi's rule doesn't change the fact that Ironsi abolished the regions. Stop being clever by half. Here are the details of the issue:

Ironsi took power through the backdoor on the 17th of January 1966 and immediately proceeded to replace the democratic regions based structure he met in place with a military structure. So he appointed these mentioned soldiers over the regions first and operated a regions based Federal Military Government from that January 17 to May 24 of same year... meaning he ran a military controlled regional system for the first four months and seven days of his six months tenure. Then on the 24th of May, he issued a raft of centrifugal decrees by which he dismantled the regions and by his own pronouncement converted from federal military government to national (Unitary) military government whereby the regions were broken down to powerless provinces headed by the same military governors who were now ordered to be reporting to the military head of state (Ironsi himself) at the center henceforth. At this point the civil services of the regions had been unified and placed 100% under the control of the just created national (unitary) military government. This was why it was at that point in time that Governors Hassan and Ejoor began to complain against Ironsi.

So beginning from May 24, the military governors to the exception of Ojukwu, were forced against their wish and will by Ironsi to start ruling over groups of weak and powerless groups of provinces and not regions. This continued till July 29 that Ironsi was toppled and killed hence as at when Ironsi died the regions were no longer in existence. It was the coming of Gowon that saw a partial reversal to autonomous regions first followed by a breakdown of those semi-autonomous regions into semi-autonomous states. Get it now?

So were Ojukwu, Ejoor, Hassan and others no longer the governor's of the regions?

Was it Ironsi that removed resource control? This is the major characteristics of true federalism and we know resource control and regionalism were removed by Gowon, Murtala and Obasanjo

Bonesking:
You guys think you’re talking to kids here.

1. Obasanjo that made his government pro-Yoruba. Virtually all the Yoruba billonaires who made their money from corrupt dealing got such opportuinity under Obasanjo.

2. Ondo a state without a drop of oil were added to the NDDC with a crook boundary demarcation that carved parts of Delta state oil territories into Ondo.

3. Under Obasanjo, Yoruba’s got the highest military, Police and Ministerial positions. It got to a stage where both the IG of Police and Naval boses were solely rotated among Yoruba’s.

4. Under Obasanjo the SW got the highest federal projects that even the SE dare not ask.

5. Even when Obasanjo left the seat, he single-handedly made a SWesterner the Speaker of the House under Yar’adua cheating the SE who were suppose to be given the slot. As a matter of fact it passed from Olubunmi Etteh to Dimeji Bankole.

6. Ogun state which succesfully is now a centre of industrial activities was made possible by Obasanjo’s economic policies.

7. Culturally, Obasanjo promoted Yoruba with his attires even in foreign trips. So who are you guys deceiving. Only the Tinubu camp for selfish reason will say Obasanjo didn’t favour the Yoruba’s.

Also the same Obasanjo that fought against Igbos in the civil war, and prides himself as the one that accepted the Biafran surrender.

The same Obasanjo that will not be able to show evidence of the 20 pounds punishment, that every TRUE IGBO was subjected to, in the immediate aftermath of the war. He must show this evidence before this Tinubu revisionists can make headway

Anambra owns Benin and Igala

Esn are just attention seekers.

Well, they seem to have gotten the attention by forcing the fulani federal government to start considering banning open grazing

Guestlander:
Ipob Haram loading. I don't understand why Ibos always go overboard. If you are testing surface to air missiles you cannot reasonably argue you that you are trying to ward off a bunch of herdsmen and bandits.

You forgot that various reports have claimed that Fulani terrorists are supplied. by airborne helicopters, so it is necessary to have surface to air capabilities to ward off such supplies and rearmament to Fulani terrorists in souther forrsts

Very sad news.

I even sparred with him very recently.

May his soul RIP

This is all you see whenever Buhari is in power.

Adding unnecessary stress to people's lives. Endless queues and all manner of psychologically damaging measures.

ijawcitizen:
Do not be surprised when it finally becomes clear that supleme Lida Namadi Kano's ESN militia is not intended to defend igbos, but rather the reemergence of the cowardly igbo biafra military which did not carry out a single military expedition against the North they were at war with in 1967.

This militia is not intended to protect anybody against Fulani herdsmen and terrorists as they claimed but they are the very terrorists about to be unleashed on the Niger Deltans in another salvo of territorial expansion similar to that carried out by Ojukwu and his biafran militia against the people of the Midwest, Old Rivers & Old Cross Rivers which make up the restored Niger Delta region.

Instead of launching military expeditions against the North from Enugu, as every one was expecting in 1967, biafran forces were attacking Niger Delta people who were not at war with them. Not even a single biafran bullet was shot in the North!

Do not expect anything different from these current bunch of ESN militia (cousins of Fulani expansionists) as the MAP BELOW reveals.

I strongly believe in the ability of our Niger Delta fighters, the very incarnates of Great Adaka Boro to send these pests back to the caves where they are crawling from....

Egberi Fa!
Iya!

The map you displayed was drawn by Basden in the late 1800s, and surprisingly he also claimed that Bonny was Ijawland. Unfortunately we all know better.

His map is wrong. Bonny belonging to Ijaws is also a wrong claim. I know that map is the reason you guys hardly ever quote him
Because if you quote him on the ownership of Bonny, Igbos will immediately quote him on the true map of Igboland

badaru911:
Experience matters.... If a person from the southern part wanna go for that post.... Hmmmm... His/Her qualifications, experience, and achievements will surely fill a truck use for carrying Dangote cement.....Taking the present ICC president Chile Eboe-Osuji from Imo state as an example....He also graduated from a Nigeria university but his experience and qualifications.... Na bomb

The whole saga will even be a huge embarrassment to Eboe-Osuji as his colleagues in ICC would have expected a more respectable showing by his supposed countryman.

Little do they know that Nigeria, under Buhari, operates an Almajiri system where our judiciary is led by dementia-ravaged and semi educated Fulani terrorists.
