Why is the police parading them like this, some smart lawyers can get the case thrown out in court because of that.

festacman:
Yes, Sarduana was killed by young soldiers led by a young officer who was more Hausa than Igbo. On the flip side, Aguiyi Ironsi was killed by Northern soldiers led by T.Y Danjuma. Yes, Igbo suffered progrom and civil war. However after the war, Igbo who lived in the North went back and were warmly welcomed. They repossessed their properties unlike the case of abandoned property. And many more millionaires were made

However, I can't deny that there exist mutual SUSPICION rather than UNFORGIVENESS or hatred between Hausa/Fulani and Igbo just as we also have between Yoruba and Igbo. This suspicion borders on who will outwit each other given that Igbos are seen as 'too clever or crafty' in pursuit of target interests. So, the other ethnic groups more like keep their antennas up and examine everything microscopically when dealing with Igbo.

Outside of politics, there are thousands Igbo traders in the urban and rural parts of Northern Nigeria doing businesses, meeting the needs of those communities and making modest profits in return. If there is a deep-rooted unforgiveness as Doyin Okupe is insinuating, those people won't be thriving there. Personally, I did my NYSC in Safana in Katsina and I and other corps members, who were largely Igbo, mixed freely with the locals. We raised money from the locals for projects and were supported with palpable willingness.

Doyin Okupe is entitled to his opinion. My own opinion is that the problem is SUSPICION rather than UNFORGIVENESS or hatred.

God bless you for this rebuttal my broda. The amazing thing is that those that push that Okupe's narrative are South Westerners.

No Northerner i have met or known in all my days schooling and working in the North have ever said this.

Which begs the question who is more disturbed about that coup, the West or the North? Bearing in mind that it was the West that first described it as an Igbo coup even though Maj. Kaduna Nzeogwu was more Hausa than the Bendel that he originated from.

Well there’s cause for you to be angry which I understand very well, but have you explored enough to see the behavior of some Muslims? I will like you to visit Quora an international forum and see the way Muslims are contributing intelligently. Just because of the mayhem of the few shouldn’t depict the behaviors of the rest.

I have had an account with Quora since 2013, and I understand that the behavior of most Nigerian Muslims does not constitute a standard for the Nation of Islam.

But damn, the way they leave themselves open to manipulation by their politicians and religious leaders in Nigeria really irks me. The Christians are not left out from manipulations, but no one pastor or even CAN as a body can influence their members to violence so easily.

I was a guest on NL for years before I registered an account.
Back then it was really educative and informative with intelligent comments and intellectual arguments.

We didn’t all see eye to eye but then, harmony comes from a blend of different sounds. I wouldn’t have been surprised if Shekau also browsed NL to keep abreast of the world outside Sambisa.

To me it signified an era of youths that hungered for better in their country.

What we’re seeing now is the animosity and hateful rhetorics filtered in from 2014 by desperate politicians.

Most of the monikers frequenting the front pages now offer only politically motivated propaganda and bile. Everyone wants to air their opinions even when they know next to nothing about the topic.

It’s so sad but my beloved NL is just a representation of the sorry state of the nation.

Continue to RIP HungerBad.

Christianity has done a lot to better our life and improve on our living standard, what has islam done/brought to this world aside terrorism,pain and agony? Why is these Muslims dragging a school built by christians? Why not build your own school?

Because in Nigeria Muslims don’t build. They only steal, kill & destroy in the name of their god. They’d rather the country becomes like Afghanistan for easy access to keep stealing the oil money. Lazy mofos

"enviable reputation of the Nigerian military", burst my sclero!!

Na Amotekun Nigerian Army suppose dey drag ranking with, no one else envies your reputation.

Adonundastand.

What is a refinery looking for in Katsina? Which person's oil do they want to be refining?

The looting of the treasury of this nation by this president and his bandit administration is beyond atrocious!

This is not waste, this is just pure unadulterated wickedness!

They’re trying to silence this man. But no matter how hard they try, God still pass devil.

At this rate, very soon the boldness of these so called bandits will lead them to to attempt to seize one government house in the North.

Maybe then Nigerians will realize that there is a war currently on for the soul of this country and that man in the Rock has to be impeached for sanity to prevail.

This is Nigeria were people are killed during elections and Umahi is telling youths that government jobs are not profitable.
RIP to the dead police woman, even though na dem wicked pass the men.

Sai baba! If you come to dis world again, endeavor to avoid any country that bubu, uncle Lai and everyone at 'vulture grilled meat' will also be fellow citizens.

Since only u killed yourself by yourself, I don’t know if they will still allocate those 72 virgins to you or just hand you one giant breeze soap and one Better Lover magazine.

We that u are leaving behind haven't known peace since ur broda became President, so kindly inquire when his number will be up or if he can be moved up for recall quicker. Ngwanu adieu

And dis wan wants to be president with dis mentality.

Government job is not profitable, but ur children that you have used the people’s oil money to send abroad won’t leave government jobs alone!

Leaders without vision.

Once they catch dem in a compromising position the panel always adjourns. Na so miscarriage of justice take dey slowly win.

Forgiven ke? Don’t worry the government will arrange for you to discuss that with your maker in person. Animals in human skin!

This illiterate has never heard of video forensic analysis before.

If e sure for you, give the video to CNN let them analyze and publish their findings!

Oruwe!

Gandollar & the hypocritical North!!

In Nigeria people think leadership is a title, not understanding that it is a responsibility.

They can’t afford to mobilize security to safeguard farmers, but can deploy soldiers to intimidate and bomb villages with the excuse that an unknown soldier died there.

When there’s trouble, no one cares what direction salvation is coming from as long as lives will be saved!

Naija don cast!

Jubrin gats hustle on side to meet up, chai!

GerogeI:
Ha ha ha.

Are you discrediting my Grandfathers map. Which he drew on a tree? You can't be serious.

All the activities you mentioned are those conducted under British tutelage. That's why you used British map.

Each group has a name for the River, we call it Orimiri. Why then do you think what the British called it is more important than what Igbos, Igalas, Hausas etc called it. At the end they are also a tribe - Anglo Saxons and Scots. In fact we are even more in population

The world knows it by a certain name, a name provided by the British.

We however are still operating our system of government no different from the motley group of tribesmen the Europeans met & left behind.

In the committee of nations, such a people have little or no power to effect such a change in world history.

Meanwhile, only Regina can argue with the ancestors broda.

Every one of them in this administration is a Lai Mohammed nowadays.

It appears NCAN is having network issues marrying names to mugshots here.

Which one of these strong faces will be paired with the name "Jane Otubo" na?

GerogeI:
You mean the British map?
Are you aware there are various other map sources. You only choose the most popular due to British indoctrination.

Even the British choose theres due to Roman indoctrination. None of these claims is a Universal truth as being stated.

My own forefathers drew their own maps on sand and tree barks. Who says they have no credit? They called the river Orimili. And passed that information through Oral tales.

Which map has Orimili on it? Even the one used to divided and create states in Nigeria since 1914 till date doesn’t have it. Abi do the Igalas & Ebiras call it the same name in their tree maps too?

The British fine tuned what the Romans left for them, we on the other hand still haven’t been able to define who a Nigerian is!

BTW the map we’re talking about here is not the one ur forefathers used to describe family land o.

Lemme first park my Range Rover here and be observing Chelsea fans jubilation as if FC Porto is a walk-over for dem.

Okay this is going to be a long one, but bear with me first.

Mungo Park is credited as the discoverer of the River Niger for more than one reason.

Yes locals lived and traded on its banks for centuries, but the river was not added to the map we use till date because of the locals but him.

Oh yes, your country is still being mapped out from the mold left by the colonials.

The river was known by another name to the locals but guess what, the name on the map is River Niger! As quoted by guess again, Mungo Park!

You trek ya own and rediscover it along with new boundaries for ur own personal country too.

Aswears dan this wan na new meme alert!

"Why did Buhari let the terrorists go?" Sakala Because!!

BaeMercy:
African woman na Gold
We sure know how to pet kids

Take care of...yes.

Pet...?? Hmm....it’s like ur mama never give you 'factory fitted' slap with slippers before.

Africa my Africa!

When it comes to family care and child upbringing, the western women still have a lot to learn from the African woman.

My question is why did Okowa concession the Asaba international airport to Baba Ijebu instead of this man?

E be like say Okowa been don carry the state airport play 3goals handicap for bet Naija, ticket kon cut.

"The Igbo faith and confidence is based on what you deny the Igbo in the morning, they can give to themselves in the evening through hard work and perseverance"

Apt description of the average Igbo man.

Dem beg you, you nor gree.

Dem work for you, you still nor use the matter pay dem.

Nwanne dem go enter China go work am!

To avoid a 2023 with the Chinese version of jubrin flooding the polity, make ona give Obi the China man.

In Nigeria this religion doesn’t create, they only steal, kill & destroy.

Someone else is also described in the bible with these same characteristics.

What goes around really comes around.

I can remember SWern folks on this platform analyzing why PMB would definitely handover to a SW'ner because the SE had spoilt their chances by giving birth to MNK.

Fast forward 2021, their airflow don restrict! Their darling bubu done choke dem!!

I bet you the US government didn’t first see him in a benz and arrest him for being a scammer!

I just wonder if we will ever have a President bold enough to overhaul this our colonial mentality police force.

Han Han why be say wahala no go finish for this country?

Wahala is a bicycle made in Nigerian.
