Andro Blaze: Fair do. I just wish the people who started this could have first congratulated her as a Nigerian before bringing out the Tribal card. On all the fillipino links I saw, she never seemed to ba ashamed of identifying herself as a Nigerian/African, not some local Yoruba/Igbo/Urohobo girl.

tpia@:
Her dad is yoruba (olufunso oke). Olufunso is a yoruba name.

The mixed look is typically identified with igbos, yet you folks keep insisting you're not mixed.

Usually, i've noticed igbos dont really like to acknowledge foreign input when it comes to appearance, meaning someone who has mixed heritage ( and looks it), will most likely simply have to be identified as igbo only as per facie.

It might be a general thing in nigeria, i guess.

Not to disput your claim but a link with that would have been more concrete.! don't you think As for Igbo looking mixed, I will like to tell you that in Igbo land we have so many skin tones that are equally as beautiful therefore we are not mixed but just plain Black and beautiful/handsome for the guys.. .
With regards to your gibberish of who pays the piper.....what nonsense? So the Igbo's pay more money now abi..? even with Otedola and Dangote who are not Igbo... Mehn stop this comedy and accept the truth that the Igbo's are just beautiful and classy and win these accolades on merit and nothing else.
Have a look at this video too..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xp5bloqJURo&NR=1&feature=endscreen

publisher: @OP, I dont know the essence of this video. Nigeria is still a country in transition and hopefully our final destination will be a good one. Most of our leaders that have 'messed' up Nigeria are products of british colonial education. Perhaps the 'Naija' generation of young people that have revolutionized our music and movie industries will one day spread their tentacles into other areas of our great country.

This video is a waste of time and an opportunity for unnecessary pity partying over Nigeria's present challenging situations.

You call yourself publisher and yet you hate to educate your mind and learn from history.. All Nigerians or at least a lot must admit the fact that they have erred and move past the stage of shying away from taking responsibility and begin to take responsibility and apologies to the offended party/parties without which till tomorrow peace would not reignand where there is no peace there will not be development QED.!

babyosisi: Funny that you of all people will use the word dirty and talk about rituals while pointing fingers
When everybody sabi the headquarters and originators and importers and exporters of the same :
Chei
Hahahahahahaha
Una no go kill persin o
What language is juju again
Igbo?
Juju music too
Igbo?

Adanne Igbo please keep telling them the real truth.! A'ma leave you to it, you seem to be in charge of dishing the truth and nothing but the truth here. Leave us to go and be on our own or face the consequences of the fake "One nigeriaa"

J12: Those people you listed are dummies. They've got nothing on Chukwuma.

vanstanzy: Did the article which was clearly not written by me but reported by me say that Only An Igbo President Will Refine and Rebrand Nigeria? U people only see what they want to see, but not the bigger picture. Try reasoning outside the box.

vanstanzy: Why do u really bother debating with these people? Our name is CHIMEREMEZE, meaning GOD HAS MADE ME KING. Like Nas sang; "Niggaz fear what they don't understand, hate what they can't conquer". That's exactly whats going on here in Nigeria. People just don't understand the Igboman, that's the reason for the fear.

Nwanne I wasn't in any debate with them oo. Just had to put some fools in their place with facts before they start to feel wise..

Aigbofa: Here comes the type of monkeys I like to engage on Nairaland. No amount of tantrum will extricate you from the vacuous assumptions you are trying to make in support of your ibo president. Your blustering means nothing to me, it only reveals how stupid you really are. What does your candidates have that separates them from those before them? That is the question. It is not enough to tell us they will make good presidents because they are ibo. It is patently dumb, and it appears you are even dumbe.r.

So, other people don't have excellence, bravery, humility, self assurance, motivation and favour? All these are exclusive preserve of ibos? What a dum.b ars.e monkey.

I wouldn't waste my time one bit on you again after this seeing that you are too dumb, idiotic and foolish to understand plain simple english and all you seem to do is realise you have lost a war, then jump to start a fight.. . So it doesn't come down to running a state anymore classic example of one of the Reetarded Ignoramus I was referring to

J12: The only Igbo man capable of rebranding Nigeria is C.C Soludo. Others are full of shìt.
No offense.

Onlytruth: The most compelling reason to narrow the search to Igboland is because Nigeria needs to heal and move on, and the idea even becomes most desirable because the region being considered produces some of the finest Nigerian professionals. It is not as if they are asking us to choose from areas with least qualification.
So, it is in Nigeria's interest to choose from Igbo the next Nigerian president. Of course Nigeria can also choose otherwise and hope for the best, but let no one become surprised if 50 years from now we are still where we are today.
On paper Nigeria's economy has been growing, but I'm not sure it has impacted majority of the citizens. Someone with the TRAINED skills should step in to make that happen.
With Nigerian president of Igbo extraction Nigerian kills two birds with one stone. This truth is as solid as titanium.

This I have tried to pass across in plain simple english but it seems some peeps have grown up foools and one's without a sense of reason whatsoever.

Onlytruth: You seen to be narrowing the search to a governor (maybe Fashola), typical.
You do not need to be a former Nigerian state governor to perform superbly as president. All you need is a good head on your shoulder and a certain level of patriotism (which brings along honesty, commitment, etc).

I believe that one man stands out heads and shoulders above the rest ----> his name is Charles Chukwuma Soludo (ie per the ability to "Refine and Rebrand" Nigeria).
Nigeria under a Soludo presidency can leapfrog most nations within 8 years. We can actually have not less than 2 Trillion Dollar economy under Soludo in 8 years.
Quote me on that.

redsun: Nigerian society is not mentally matured enough to welcome sane leadership.It is very tribal and a tribal society is a primitive one,devoid of sound reasoning,sound judgement and cooperation.

When the people grows mentally,sane and responsible leadership will come natural.

Aigbofa: Let me remind you that none of the people you mentioned ever ran a state before. I therefore I don't understand where you got the idea that any of them would make a great president.
Can you please enlighten us more about the spirit that propelled these to the top of their professions that are not present in other professionals from other tribes in Nigeria?

And what makes your liittle brain think that anyone needs to run a state to have required Leadership qualities.. Dude I find it more difficult to relate to you and your IQ which to be fair seems to be below two digit figures.. Colins, Chuka, John; are a few Nigerians of Igbo extraction that run affairs of states in other countries. The spirit is one given by God himself some of which are Hardwork, Excellence, Bravery, Humility, Self Assurance, Motivational, Favour etc. Yes they may or may not be present in other people which may explain the hatred and jealousy like in the case of Joseph in the bible
