SS left you guys behind and the roles have been reversed. You are now minority and the SS tribe collectively are majority.

Ask yourself, why is it that the people that have chance to emerge in both APC/PDP in the South are non-Igbo? If we say APC is a bad party, why is it that an Ibo man is still not politically relevant in PDP?

You have Ijaws, Ikwerres holding forte like real men in both PDP/APC while the coward Ibo leaders are waiting to damn scared to even compete like their progenitors always do.

SS/SE are never one, that was in the past. If you question this, why is it that there is no SS'ner with true political might supporting an Igbo presidency? Imagine a tribe like Ibo always trying to tag like boy-boy to SS'ners? Such a shame!

I see the spectre of a combined SSSE anti:Tinubu votes is giving you nightmares.
I can assure you that Ijaws and much of SS will never vote for the man that allied with the north to kick out their own son.
When Igbos take Kalu's message to the SS, they will buy into it. Tinubu is doomed.

2015 will be brought back to life. Those that kicked out a fellow southern president must pay seriously. Tinubu is going nowhere

LegendHero:
Omo Igbo, if Tinubu lose, he will simply go back to Lagos like he already said. But at least he will face this like a true born.

Even if the SW eventually fail to clinch the power and PDP wins the election, we simply go back to playing opposition. BUT I can guarantee you that a Yoruba man will still be the next president first before an Ibo can ever be and that's even within that PDP.

Ibos are political minorities, your political flex end on social media, we know this and you also know this amongst yourselves. So I understand why you guys have been running haywire trying to antagonize Asiwaju because you hate what you can't have.

No Yoruba has ever won the presidency without the Igbo vote.

So now that you will not be getting the Igbo vote,. Yorubas will never taste the presidency again. Guaranteed

LegendHero:
Lol see the coward.

Ndibo gradually turning to a political minority in Nigeria with their leaders showing how weak they are daily. That is why IPOB terrorists is holding them hostage.

This man saying MUST think the West is weak like Ndibo. We are facing this with confidence through the past work we put in and we are sure in APC, a Yoruba candidate will emerge through negotiation on the side of strength with the Northern caucus.

So Kalu can go to to hades by playing the SE or NE game. Ibo minority voice don't count.

Your pain sweet me die
Tinubu will see how the cookie crumbles soon.

SE and much of SS will never vote for Tinubu.

We will eagerly support a northern candidate than support Tinubu. Just wait and see.

I don't mind Buhari returning for a 3rd term. Tinubu is a no no

But I don't want OUK going on a loneranger mission.

He must make sure his moves are harmonised with the wishes of apex Igbo organisations, otherwise it will start seeming he's fighting just for his pocket.

His logic is sound though. That has always been my position

LOVEALAIGBO:
Mazi Kanu isn’t infallible…just like with every other human being! Problem is, there was a vacuum which he stepped into to be the voice of those of us sick and tired of the murderous, evil and unfair setup that is presently configured to serve the interests of the Fulani hegemony…and their pathetic house-nigger middle-belt and southern slaves willing to accept the crumbs thrown their way!

This visit Governor Soludo made to Mazi Kanu was a masterstroke as it exposed all these sit-at-home proponents as no more than 5th-columnists only interested in sustaining the insecurity in the region!

Fact of the matter is this insecurity that’s being engineered from outside the region will continue in one form or the other until either Buhari dies in office or leaves next year!

You know, those 5th columnists were in one way or the other, endorsed by Kanu. Again this is all about him ensuring there are no checks and balances guiding the leadership. Everything is just about whether Nnamdi Kanu supports it or not. This is a highly injurious method to the Igbos.

One thing those 5th columnists have in common is that they all praise Kanu to the high heavens. And it seems whenever someone kisses his ass, he gives the person a thumbs-up regardless of whether the person is psychiatrically alright or not. I am sure that is exactly what led him to Kenya where he was captured, in a country world-renowned for extraordinary renditions. How incompetent can one be? A kenyan interviewer addressing him as His Excellency, a few days after that, we all heard that he had been kidnapped from Kenya.

Like you, I suspect the current madness will subside once the paedophilic dullard in Aso Rock leaves office, but for IPOB to progress there either has to be a more competent leader, or a new stringent code of conduct and checks & balances to guide the leader.

Kingsley10000:
By this your comment,I doubt if you are Igbo because you seems to be comfortable and happy with the destruction of life and properties in the southEast.
You enemies of southeast will soon meet your Waterloo

That I am against Kanu's leadership of IPOB, does not mean I am pro-Buhari.

Truth be told, IPOB was much more peaceful until Buhari's goons provoked them into what they are now.

Ekpa and co. are offshoots of IPOB. Not really IPOB, but I am sure some of his foot soldiers are those guys whose human rights were severely abused by Buratai and co. Today they have guns, and you wonder why they have guns.

All of a sudden, we no longer hear of python dance and crocodile smile. Buhari caused what is happening. Deal with it.

Kingsley10000:
Apc is not strong in Anambra. Even when they were strong, this kinda destruction of life and properties has not been happening in Anambra.

Everything started during the advent of ipob in 2017,now it has gotten to its peak

APC's government has been shooting at IPOB peaceful protesters since 2015.

Every violence you see happening in Anambra and Igboland was introduced by the Fulani-led APC.

Idiots like SImon Ekpa and the rest that emerged, came into existence because APC's government created the necessary conditions for Kanu to thrive, who in turn, gave prominence to all the idiots wreaking havoc in Igboland.

Buhari is neck-deep in the whole mess. I remember when he came in, the first thing he did for the Southeast, was to bring in Boko Haram prisoners to Anambra. That immediatley revealed his modus operandi for Ndigbo

A major question you should be asking is this. Who gave Simon Ekpa prominence?

If Simon Ekpa is ignored, the same person that gave Ekpa prominence, will give another dunce prominence to wreak havoc.

The major problem is Nnamdi Kanu.

I have been screaming about this for many years now. He is not the leader that Igbos should follow. For crying out loud, if you want to choose a leader, choose someone that is at least as intelligent as you. And their must be checks and balances, guiding such a person's leadership.
In Kanu's case, he is not very intelligent, and to make matters worse, there are absolutely no checks and balances on him. Whatever he thinks of, is implemented, with no one to ask questions. He is also not really well exposed to how the world works, and has no business leading anybody.

Having access to a radio facility that allows one to speak to millions is not a prerequisite for being a good leader

Igbofam:
Soludo how far?

You visited and did photo Ops with Nnamdi Kanu and today they burn down your magistrate court

You will never learn that terrorists are not to be fraternized with

It's obviously the handiwork of APC-UGM, who are not happy with the visit

onumadu:
One of the ways to do that "long leg walk" is to bring out massive money to form a real security group for the state for example.
I can bet my smart money that if you set up a security group whose members are paid more than the Nigeria army or police, you will attract the most capable hands to the job, Igbo or no Igbo.
With that kind of money made available, even some of these criminals will lead the fight against themselves.
Anambra needs to throw everything including the kitchen sink at these criminals.

Resolve is the only missing link. But that resolve will come when people see that they can no long go out to fend for their family.
That is exactly where these criminals are driving Igbo to.

Those criminals are banking on this perceived Igbo docility, hoping it will continue forever.

But Igbos are a very dynamic people, and I am sure in the not too distant future, they will get to realise that.

Maintaining the same level of funding of both the Anambra vigilante services and all the towns' security outfits put together, but with a quarter of the personnel. They can easily set up a highly professional command and control centre, and an intelligence section peopled by very qualified individuals.

Ideally the 5 SE states should be involved in such a regional security network, but 4 of those states are slumbering and being ruled by sabos who will never want to undermine their Fulani masters. So maybe the whole thing can start with Anambra, to reduce the unhindered criminality reigning at the moment in Anambra

Now this is the type of statement and stance I will expect from a true born Igboman. Not there undermining the only true Igbo governor we have at the moment.

I see nothing wrong with this statement from Ekpa. People have a right to defend themselves.
Fulanis in the south will try and take advantage if they notice that the killings of Igbos up north are not avenged.

This is the type of statement that forces Fulanis in the south to realise that we are the landlords of the south, not them.

SlyDev:
Kanu is behaving well after the language class, when will DSS catch that Simon Ekpa boy he needs the language class

Simon Ekpa is their boy. They have no intention of catching him

Balkan:
your brain is empty

You, that has a full brain, how come you are being governed by governors churned out of Fulani-run parties?

Your governor will never consider visiting MNK, after the years he has been a governor.

Here is Soludo, who has only been there for just a matter of weeks/months.

Keep your urine-filled brain and stay where you are. Let ndi Anambra enjoy the fruits of having a proper Igbo governor.

What people should understand is that Soludo is the governor of Anambra state. We Anambrarians understand him, that is why we put him there.

All the other people who keep undermining Soludo, yet their states are governed by Fulani parties should shut up and let Anambra lead. It is clear they don't have the leadership pedigree nor the mental complexity to understand the Soludo or Anambra move. Let them first go install pro-Igbo governors in their states first, before they start sharing their inconsequential opinions.

These are things Soludo can do, but the Fulani APC hireling called Ekpa cannot do.

Anambra youths should quit following and listening to people like Ekpa, and let those with long legs do the walking for ndi Anambra in particular and Ndigbo in general.

So, it's true after all?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4w-ID5qvc7Q

First of all, I don't believe Igbos are intentionally being targeted. I need way more evidence before I can reach that conclusion. Igbos just seem to own more businesses than any other southern group in the north, so they are likely to be more affected by such riots.

Secondly,. any Igbo person who is caught up in the unfolding tragedy in Sokoto deserves all he or she is getting.

They have been continuously warned for quite a few decades to vacate the north

Ijoh:
Continue to convince yourself with lies Bonny King that is in the Ijaw traditional rulers council.

The Attah of Igala also attends Anambra state traditional rulers meeting sometimes. But that doesn't make him an Anambrarian nor an Igbo monarch.

As the few Ijaw migrants in Ubani claim Ijaw ancestry, it makes sense for their traditional ruler to also make those Ijaw migrants feel good by attending Ijaw meetings.

But the king drew a clear line earlier on in the year. They are Igbos and not Ijaws

Thoh:
Continue to convince yourself with lies it doesn't change anything in the truth physical.

That's exactly the belief shared by a few Ijaw migrants in Bonny, until our brother, the king of Bonny gave them a good thrashing a few months ago

Thoh:
Since straight 23 years of democracy only Ijaw have been deputy governors of rivers state from one ijaw to another.

Mind u Bonny is 10 0 percent ijaw

FIXED

Tonitoniton:
I grew up in ogbunabali, an ikwere man, sergeant awuse tried several times to become the governor of rivers state but failed because the ijaws will not allow that.

The reason an ikwere man is there is purely God because odilis elder brother that the ijaws wanted to favour that made it possible for an ikwere man to be there.

Kalabaris and okrikas are ijaws.

No rivers man has been able to become a governor in rivers state from the creation of rivers state.

Rivers runner by the ijaws from inception. U can Google it.

I will not say more for obvious reason. The ikweres cant stand the ijaws in rivers state.

But since Bayelsa was created, it became an impossibility for the Ijaws to solely dictate what happens in Rivers state.

It is exactly the same way SE Igbos can no longer affect the political fortunes of Rivers state. This was possible during the Eastern Region period, but not now. Things change. That is what I am saying.

I know Bayelsa Ijaws are fighting hard to bring in every Rivers tribe into the Ijaw umbrella, but even with this effort, it will not be enough for Ijaws to become the majority group in Rivers. Eventually people will start fighting back.

Remember what happened in Bonny a few months ago. They started fighting back over what they saw as Ijaw desperation to make Bonny another Ijaw territory. They officially issued a press release where they made it clear that they were of Igbo ancestry. But also admitted that those in Finima possibily had Ijoid ancestry.

paramakina202:
Nri influence is non existence in my part of Igboland know this fact and have peace.There are Aro settlement all over Anambra state but no Nri settlement in Abia state,so ask yourself what Aros where doing in your locality.
Btw,you don't have any scientific or archeological documents to prove Nri invented Igbo market days.Just like your Jewish claims is a confirmed cultural identity falsehood of the century so is every other claim ever made by Nri and other related Ohus around them.

Nwokem, we are not like Aguleri people that are constantly trying to do attachee-by-force with the Jewish people.

Secondly, you are talking about Nri settlements compared with Aro settlement. The reason you can even identify Aro settlements is that it only happened not more than 500 years ago.

There are nearly 200 towns and villages throughout Igboland with Nri ancestry. One of them is Uruala in your own neck of the woods.
Places like Ogwashi-uku and other places in Anioma still recognize their Nri ancestry. Enugwu-Ezike in Enugu state still go to Enugwu-ukwu to solidarize with their Enugwu-ukwu brothers. For your information, Enugwu-ukwu is one of the core Umu Nri towns, along with Enugwu-agidi, Nawfia and Agukwu-Nri

Now with the market days, the simplest test of knowing who owns it is simply to know which of the priestly clans can establish a market that bears that name and properly constitute the shrine for that market in the middle of that market. So talk is cheap. Only Nri people can do it, and today in the ISI-ANIs of these four core Nri towns, the originating shrines of those market days are still there, being looked after by the Eze ANIs

Every Igbo town, Edo town, Igala town and possibly all the Idoma towns make use of these market days instituted by the Nris. Umu Nri priests are the only people with the secrets of those market days, every other person, including the Aros just have to play a second fiddle to the Nris, when it comes to matters regarding Igbo market days and their corresponding shrines.

Aros claim to fame is in selling fellow Igbos, and their cultural 419s with the Ibibio long juju, with which they sold a lot of their Igbo brothers and Ijaw cannibals into slavery

paramakina202:
You have just spoken like a real Ohu.
When abomination is committed within my community there are Aro priest to take care of business we have nothing to do with Nri,nze na ozo or what have you.

But the Aros, and your Ohu people still use the Nri-owned Eke, Oye/Orie, Afo and Nkwo.

Aros don't own those market day deities. So only Nri priests can set up those markets in any part of Igboland, including Arochukwu and your Ohu town

So you see where I am headed. Nri is the supremo.

There are things Nri people can do that Aro people don't even know exist. That's a fact.

Igbo people and their fresh looks.

Anyway thanks to the Okwuosas

As always, Igboland representing solidly. I'm sure this is the first time that most nairalanders may have heard of this very small town, yet the development in the town brought in by indigenes of the town trumps what one will find in a counterpart Afonja town.

paramakina202:
Umu Nri can lead umu Nri they have no jurisdiction over any other Igbo group.

Spoken like a real osu.

Where in my post, did I write that Umu Nri should lead other Igbo groups?

As for whether Umu Nri have jurisdiction over any other Igbo groups. If your town recognizes eke, oye/orie, afo and nkwo, that town already has Nri links
If you take nze, ozo and duru titles, you recognize Nri
When you commit an abomination in your father's compound and your father is not recognized by the land/ANA/ANI/ALA as qualified to lift that abomination, however ANA/ANI recognizes the spiritual authority of the Nri man to get rid of that abomination in your own father's compound, then Umu Nri have cultural jurisdiction in your father's compound. Not your dad. GET IT!!!

To Fulani terrorists, the fear of Igbo retaliation is the beginning of wisdom.

Argue with your keyboards

But he helped Buhari create those problems

elipheleh:
So you want us now to allow the treacherous tribe who has betrayed SE and SS to ascend the throne?

Fools.

Una never see something.

You have a point.

I will support. Buhari's 3rd term over Tinubu's presidency.

But OUK capitulated much too early which smacks of treachery and self-interest over collective interest

UtuokeAlcoholic:
Obbasanjo was Northern candidate in both 1999 and 2003. The northerners brought him and made him president The yorubas never supported him during those times.

Some Yorubas supported Obasanjo in 1999.
Most Yorubas supported him in 2003, as Yorubas did not throw up any other presidential candidate that year.
In fact Yoruba states were taken over by PDP governors, except Lagos, as Yorubas gave Obasanjo a bloc vote in 2003
