Igbos are starting to succumb to pressure of accepting others. This is a good development in 2025 and not many decades ago.

But he was employed by Abia state government in 1990s so how are they succumbing under pressure on something that started in 90s?

tunjijones:
E go soon clear for your eye.

Not that I care though. Either in APC or PDP, I stand to gain nothing from it.

Stop taking media gossip serious.

Duru009:
Only time will tell...

Exactly..until then.

LivingSage:
I don't know why my fellow Igbo hate Kalu so much but love Obi.

Why the hypocrisy?

We can all trace the wealth of Kalu right from his University days.

Obi only claimed doing business in University which is not verifiable
From there to bank and owning the Bank.

The question is when to when did he accumulated such wealth? How many years in banking Job?

Obi is not clean

I will NEVER condemn Sen. Uzor Kalu and praise Mr. Peter Obi.

I'm an Igbo Muslim, I'm not a hypocrite

Senator OUK made some mistakes while he was governor which he have realised and doing his best to do the right things since he became a senator.Today he is touching lives and bring development to villages in Abia North and people have started to appreciate him.He is one politicians who will always win election in Abia North without resort to rigging.

tunjijones:
It's like this one did not see the news this morning.

Abia and Enugu will soon be APC

Is that news or mere speculations?

Duru009:
This one is moving to APC very very soon

Because brother visited brother it means the person visited is about to decamp APC?
Abia and Enugu state have the best performing governors SE and do not need to decamp to win second term election and APC can't do the magic they performed in Edo state election in both states.

naijapips04:
This is how IPOB fund their weapons Purchase. By selling the body parts of their own brothers. Ndi uchu.

That is the Biafra of ipob where they will be allowed to kill,kidnap and sell human organs of their brothers as they choose.

Bede2u:
Nwanne forget that one.
Kidnapping never stopped. I came back to Nigeria in 2023 August and within the short two weeks I stayed. I have heard of kidnapping and killings along Udi-oji River express and Emene-Abakaliki high ways.
Both fulani and igbos are involved.
I believe state police is the only way forward now, so these sto.opid governors can have the tools they need to reduce these violent crimes.
These is no need to keep playing politics with this issue. Only government should have the monopoly of violence. Putting arms in the hands of touts and branding them 'ESN' is as dangerous as allowing armed herdsmen to camp in forests around igboland

I wonder why mrvitalis want ndi Igbo to trust and rely on touts and junkies with AK47 whose commanders we don't know as our protectors in the name of ESN.Meanwhile both ESN and Fulani herdsmen have their camps in the same bush but never clash one day.

Uptheante:
If you are sensible enough you should have known that there are certain royal families that are enshrined with the right to produce king's or Oba as the case may be.
If Ikwerre pple don't belong to such royal families, how can they be able to produce Oba of Benin & go against Benin customs?
Even in your Igbo land, is it every Igbo family that produce Igwe or Obi of Onitsha?

So where do they belong in Bini?

They are embracing peace because they are no more protected by Buhari and his army.

Uptheante:
For the fact that a bat chose to fly & associate with birds, doesn't remove the fact that it's not a bird but a mammal.

For the fact that some Ikwerre folks chose to associate with Igbos, speak Igbo & even head Igbo organisations, does not make remove the fact that they are not Igbos but Benin descendants.

I will believe you when Ikwerre man becomes Oba of Bini as descendants Benin runaway prince.Why not?

nedu666:
You are a law abiding citizen. Good for you. And I assume that you believe that if your community is being invaded that govt will come to your aid as a law abiding citizen. Well the people of benue have been law abiding citizens, yet for past 10 years, their communities have been massacred and govt only came to their aid after massacre as occurred

You said fulani were killing people because buhari was in power, let them try it now and get bleeped up. Oga on Xmas day in 2023 in bokkos lga, 200 people were killed by herdsmen. For 2 whole days nobody not even govt came to their aid. Till today nobody has been arrested or persecuted for that massacre.

33 people were killed in kwande village in same benue on Xmas 2023. Nobody came to the aid of law abiding citizens. In Dec 2024, again in same kwande, 11 people were killed by rampaging herdsmen. No body came to their aid. 4 farmers in mgbuji village in Enugu were killed by herdsmen and many wounded, nobody not even the governor visited the people.

Since 2020 ESN was launched which community have they saved while under Fulani herdsmen attack?
Uzo-Uwani has been attacked severally,what did they do?Nothing.They are only interested in intimidation and subjugation of ndi Igbo.How many times have they clash with Fulani terrorist?Zero time.

nedu666:
Really. So why did we resort to bakassi boys under mbadunuju. Was there ipob during that era when carrying ordinary nylon bag was a death sentence in Onitsha. Was it not during that time 2 luxiourious bus from Onitsha to lagos was sprayed with bullets. Was ipob in existence. When kidnapping was rampant during obi, and obi was bulldozing houses of kidnappers, was ipob present. Was ipob present in abia when Kanu invited them in 2002.

What ipob brought to Igboland is organized crime that have command and control structures for the first time in the history of our land that can not be compared with common criminals looking out for their daily bread.
ipob used their organized criminal structures to enforce sit at home against the will and wishes of the people.
Bakassi boys was founded by governor OUK and they became a legal vigilante group.
Who is in control of ESN?You want government to recognise illegal militant group formed by a proscribed group and armed with weapons stolen from dead police and army officers?Make una dey play.

igbosarejews:
But your murderous Fulani herdsmen, that have killed thousands of Nigerians and ethnic cleansed tribes, are not proscribed by the government, yet you're happy about it. IPOB was proscribed by the murderous Buhari regime, when they were using flag to ask for an independent state, from the massacre in Aba stadium to Onitcha and Nkpor massacre by the Nigerian security forces. Kama is a bitch, y'all celebrating the killing of your own, one day same people, if throughly you're an Igbo man or am impersonator, will turn that gun on you

I am a law abiding citizen unlike you that supports terrorist groups in the name of Biafra agitation.
You are talking as if ipob people has not been accusing each of committing serious crime in Igboland.
The reality for now is that ipob remained banned both by federal and southeast government.
May the UGM you support happen to you one day.

Fulani terrorist bandits was killing people anyhow because Buhari was in power let them try it now and get fücked up.
The military have taken the fight to the bandits in the North no mercy and no place for any terrorist to hide.
I will never support Nigeria army or police if they kill innocent civilians.
This my 2017 screenshot after the military invaded MNK's house proves that.

mrvitalis:
Should ESN be disbanded before state Police is formed?

Who is in control of ESN?
You are talking as if ESN is a government or community approved vigilante group.No they were formed and armed by a proscribed group.

mrvitalis:
Last year Enugu governor used army and police to chase away ESN and boom Fulani are back to kidnapping on Nsukka highway

People seems to forget so soon why ESN was formed... People forget how Fulani bandits ravaged South East before ESN came in

It is now completely clear why they creates UGM to give ESN bad name

The government declared war against UGM how did it affect ESN or are they the same?

igbosarejews:
You're just daft or probably not an Igbo man. Oga, there has always been insecurity in every part of Nigeria, including south east even before the advent of IPOB, y'all just decided to heap everything on the peaceful movement, but we know the real culprits and those instigating violence in Igbo land. What prompted bakassi boys in Igbo land in the first place, Fulani herdsmen aren't they been kidnapping and killing our people before IPOB ie Nebo massacre in Enugu, aren't these the reason for the formation of ESN, don't we have the likes of Osis kankwu and many of the kidnappings, before ESN formation, don't we have cult clashes on our street's, all of a sudden, IPOB brought all of these to Igbo land. Una well done oo

Your ESN was doomed to fail from begining.Ipob is a proscribed group and any armed group they formed will be tagged as terrorist group and government forces will go after them.Bakassi boys was formed by the state government not by an individual that is the difference and was disbanded when they finished their assignment....Enemy of the state can not be allowed to operate a militant group that is common law.

igbosarejews:
Already they have closed shop, let's wait and see what your likes and Nigerian security forces will do to protect the lives of Ndi Igbo from rampaging herdsmen. At least, y'all have succeeded in fighting them off, both as informant to Nigerian security forces, sabotaging their fight against the herdsmen and all manner of criticisms.

Before ipob ndi Igbo was living and surviving,there absence won't be missed.
They tried to impose authoritarian regime in Igboland.
They wanted to create a North Korea in Igboland where everyone is expected to worship their supreme leader where nobody dare challenge his authority the reason they enforce sit at home in this 21st century on everyone without exception whenever they wish.
Since they came onboard violence and crime have escalated to Hiati level in Igboland.

Chief Mike Okiro have more self respect and dignity than Bar Uche Okwukwu who went and announced himself inside his house as PG of Ohanaeze.

igbosarejews:
Una donn succeed with tagging ESN different names and the military unslaught on them, just to weaken them, so that una Fulani herdsmen terrorists friends will invade Igbo land without challenge.
Where was your military to secure the citizens, Gbo dike, Gbo dike Ife Ike mee, Akpoba dike

IPOB/ESN demarket themselves.Ndi Igbo gave them overwhelming support what did they do with it?
They miss used the goodwill and support of the people and became an oppressor and evil that have devastated the whole region.
They employed violence,threat and intimidation to control the whole region.
Ndi ha na achi bu ndi madu nwere ako na uche ha bugi umu aturu na enweghi uche.

What actually weakened ipob is the arrest of MNK and the rise of Simon Ekpa in conclusion ipob did not try.They should close shop and pack up.They have done more damage and than good.

Guccho:
Omorr... Such a powerful office. You mean he is more powerful than all the Igbo traditional rulers and even governors of southeastern states?

Yes but not just southeast but leader of ndi Igbo worldwide..

yarimo:
Evil developers

This one na skull minners na
who in return are alfa clients.
Na God go punish those useless babalawos who dey ask them to do human sacrifice.

Guccho:
This is good for Democracy.
Pls I would like an Igbo man to tell me more about this ohaneze ndigbo Title. Is he the king of all Igbos or what exactly?

He is the president general of the Igbo nation for the next four year.He is the overall leader.

Thundafireseun:
Just be patient the other PG’s will go visit other governors soon….

The problem of one Igbo man is another Igbo man

Which governor will they visit?
Igbos passed that level.There is only one recognized PG and that is Sen Mbata elected with the support of 7 state governors of Ohanaeze.

chiagozien:
Answer the question, where then do your terrorist zoo army operate?

I do not support terrorism or any act of lawlessness including the army.
This 2017 screenshot is evidence of my stand against any form of lawlessness.

Ekwerulem and Ikwerre is same thing in Igbo.
Btw why did British colonizers bring Igbo translator to Ikwerreland if they were not Igbo speakers?
They should stop disgracing themselves any further.

chiagozien:
So where then do your terrorist Nigeria army operate?

Na so your two mentors was shouting terrorist Nigeria army wotowoto upandan today they are in prison and the ones facing terrorism and treason charges... be careful o, government no be your mate.After God na them.If you say you won't respect or recognise constituted authority you will learn in a hard way like Ekperima Simon Ekpa and his boss MNK.

Goodmarlian:
Fake igbo man

Fake Gwari man

Mgbo piapu gi isi there

The institutions does not belong to the North it belong to Nigeria the president have our support on this.

chiagozien:
I thought ipob and ESN is the one causing insecurity in East?

They are partners in crime.While Fulani operates in the high ways, esn/ugm does theirs in the villages/towns and cities.

chiagozien:
Ojiofor your friendly Fulanis herdmen have done it again.




Should we blame ipob?

I thought esn have killed all the fulani bandits operating in SE
