Kennydoc: The only set of Nigerians that have a relatively similar mentality with Igbos are the Ibibios, Efiks, Annangs, Ikwerre, Ijaw etc, and these are the people of the defunct Eastern region of Nigeria. They are the people that were part of the Biafran war, and are today found in Cross River, Akwa Ibom, Rivers and Bayelsa states. These are the only people Igbos can completely align with. As a matter of fact, Igbos have been relating closely with these same people for centuries before the British came to colonise Nigeria. However, it will be difficult in this day and age for those same tribes to join Igbos in a common struggle of nationhood, cos many of them can easily sense the domineering spirit of the Igbos. Igbos love to conquer territories and are usually not afraid to upset the existing status quo. If not for the civil war and the suppression of Igbos that followed, Igbos would have been the leading Nigerians in most sectors today, not necessarily by nepotism but by merit.
Talking about Nigerian political alliance, you guys shouldn't try to rewrite history simply because Yorubas aligned with the North under APC and it worked for them. Since independence, 2015 was the very first time Yorubas had an effective and successful alliance with the North that yielded fruits for them. The SE and SS have been the southern side aligning with the North in the first, second and at the beginning of the fourth republic.
Kennydoc: You are the confused person here. The person I quoted said God will not forgive Lugard for letting other good tribes share a country with hateful Igbos, yet when Nnamdi Kanu was shouting about referendum, Nigerian government jailed him, and even after releasing him, they still went after him and many other Igbos that had bought into his mindset. If all other tribes are good and Igbos are the hateful ones, why can't the rest of the country join together and force the hateful Igbos out? Why must you share a country with the same people you hate?
Igbos are very closed people and not aligning with other enthnic groups to strategize and win.
Kennydoc: Yet you can't allow the bitter and hateful people go their way? Aren't you confused?
You are the confused person,you can go by using your brains and strategizing on how you will get referedum easily without bloodletting.only yorubas can support you to win a referedum including people of the middle belt through block voting that will enable you conduct this gar dem referedum .but you will always pull the ladder and postpone the unitary system further.
dbestuncle: OK you know all this! They say they also want to leave the useless almagamation yet you refused. Biko what should they do now
Can't you see clearly that the east is lying and not honest in it's agitation for an independent state.you want referedum ,and you are against people that can make it possible ,each time they are trying to climb the ladder ,you pull it down .
bixton: There was actually no point in him coming on air to say he ain't contesting again when he knew quite well about the rotational stuff.......... He did that only to the gullible minded fellows who will praise him. For someone who claims to read but yet as a law maker I can't see how he has affected the lives of persons from his constituency................even by way of his No.1 responsibility as a member of the house.
Why do you always think in the opposite direction?what are the functions of a senator?how do they affect lives?please he has done well ,and the quality debate in the senator was good and he participated.some senators cannot even express themselves on the floor,because some are political thugs.they only shout I support!and this guy debates,contributes to quality because of his exposure.
baliyubla: Gbaja the criminal must go to the USA to clear his name. What is good for “Atiku” according to zombies, should be good for Gbagiabiamala/Gbaja.
Nigeria can never have a crook, thief and a confirmed fraud as its number 4 citizen.
9jahotblog: Everything in the government house is either destroyed or stolen by Okorocha before leaving the government New governor Ihedioha alleges. Watch the video
ragna1991: Some of you that feels you know leadership more than the elected. Where were you when the were buying form So because a governor should get to work immediately means to you that he should not look deeply into the management of the treasurey by the past government Then what is he going to work with in the past government refused to hand over properly Keep on ranting like a fool which I know best describes you
Don't they have finance ministry in the state with permanent secretaries ,who can give details? permanent secretaries are career civil servants and are there from government to government.
Stanweezy: Won't there be lackadaisical attitude on the part of the student bkus competition helps to bring out the best. I'm seeing that country producing half baked graduate.
