APC to be precise. The former administration practically neglected the rest of Ogun state and focused more on the state capital, Abeokuta.

If the billions of naira Amosun used in the construction of useless bridges across Abk were utilised in repairing roads across the state, it would have been a different story.

helinues:
Would have ignored but let me clear your minds.. We ( Yoruba in generally) have been condemning both FG and state governors ( Obasanjo most especially ) about the dilapidated state of Sango-Ifo road

Obasanjo hill top house is a thank you gift from Julius Berger for awarding same Sango- Ifo road

Sango- Ifo road is now a stale to many of us as the residence who are the most affected also seems not to care because they have both Reps and Senators for years, which they never questioned and keep on voting like zombies

As for Abia, your people will never agreed Abia that anything is wrong with Abia state.. We must let you guys know.

You think Arabs are not related to Jews? Even the Bible will tell you that Abraham/Ibraham gave birth to both Jews and Arabs. Even in Israel today, there are Arab Israelis and vice versa.
Ndiigbo have nothing in common with Hausa or Yoruba in any form. Niger delta? That's an amorphous word, because even they themselves have problems amongst themselves. The Bini vs Ijaw for Gelegele, the Urhobo vs Itsekiri for Warri. The Itsekiri vs Ijaw, etc. They have issues within themselves as well. They are a modern day babel.
Igbos fought a war with virtually the entire Nigeria. So there you have it.

The Ndokwas, Ikwerre, Ogba, etc are learners. They are only repeating history in bid to escape from Igbophobic vibes their non Igbo speaking neighbors are sending towards them. Many Manchurians after their lost power in China and became blamed by Hans for China problems, started denying their Manchurian origins to fit into anti Manchurian China now controlled by the Hans.
The British Royalty changed their German family name to avoid being linked to Germany, after Germany lost their first world war. Ndokwa and co are only reacting to your Igbophobia, they do not want to be given the Igbo treatment. You made it hard for them to accept who they are. It happens when a people lose a war.

"The war aim and (final) solution properly speaking
of the entire problem, is to discriminate against the
Igbos and in their own interest. Such discrimination
would include above all the detachment of those
oil-rich territories in the Eastern Region, in
addition, the Igbos' freedom of movement would be
restricted, to prevent their renewed penetration intoother parts, leaving any access to the sea to the Igbos is quite out of the question "

(FederalNigerian Minister speaking to E. C.
Schwarzenback, Swiss Review of Africa, February
1968).

The above is what it means to be Igbo, you can understand why Ndokwa and co are hell bent on escaping from such yorke. They are not first in history




The Eggon you talked about are nothing like Igbo. They are cunning, non accommodating , etc. Those are not Igbo traits. So yes! God forbid.




Benin was capital of multi ethnic Bendel state. Many Anioma, Urhobo, Itsekiri, whose fathers were civil servants in Bini city capital of old Bendel, stayed behind. It's akin to the high population of Anambra and Ebonyi,people in Enugu state, because it was once the capital of old Anambra state. That's how my own parents came to Enugu as well. Ilorin is a capital of multi ethnic Kwara state, with Fulani, Yoruba, Nupe, etc, all present.
Maiduguri was once the capital of an old state comprising Adamawa, Taraba, etc. Those states have many minority states.
Jos the tin city attracted many Igbo and other southern groups to the town. After the boom of Tin, many of these families stayed behind. Also old Plateau with Jos as capital included states like Nasarawa, so many groups from there are still there.


Just like you said, below, Land is very scarce and expensive in the SE and for me, I think this is one major reason settlers are discouraged from staying in the SE







I doubt there will be any problems, so long as they pay their rent and invest in the land like Igbos do when they migrate.



I believe it's your innate Igbo prejudice messing with your head. She is probably dissapointed she couldn't use Igbo familiarity to gain cheap favours from you. Not necessarily disappointed that you are not Igbo. She simply think that chances of getting favorable financial dealings with you might be difficult, now that you are not Igbo, and will not give her any special considerations. She is looking at profit lost, you are looking at tribe.



Nothing like this. You lots can't make up your mind about Ndiigbo, you are constantly looking to pin dirt on us. In one minute, you claim we are not united, in another, you claim we too tribal and united . Then you claim we are too much in love with money, then when it suits your narrative like the above, you spin it again.

Let me tell you. If you offer more money for rent on a shop than an Igbo in Onitsha. The Shop owner will chase away the current Igbo occupant for you to enter. And if you sell cheaper than other Igbo neighbours in that shop, or offer superior services, Igbo buyers will prefer to buy from you. We are business people who don't mix business with sentiments. This already contradicts the point you are making above.



How exactly do they not allow others come in?

By paying more for the shops than others can. By offering customers cheaper and better services than others can, thereby running others out of the market. By doing "Oso ahia ", where they go to the market entrance and practically woo buyers into their shops, while non Igbos are starved of customers because they prefer to stay in their shops than face humiliation of wooing many at times unwilling customers to their shops.

By use of "Igba Odibo", where every single trader was trained in the art of business management by a superior successful mentor, who also lease some of his customers to the "Odibo" to enable him survive early days, while non Igbos who jumped into the trade without prior training or experience soon run out of funds and fold up, the Igbos survive and dominate the market.
Rather to have a retrospection on why they failed in the business, the non Igbos go about spinning hate stories of how the Igbos used tribalism to chase them out of the market, even when the customers are not Igbos.

Thank you very much. Pazienza and some other Igbos here keep on throwing facts around like they are talking to ignorant illiterates.

Let him tell us the areas in rural yoruba he visited. See him claiming Ekiti is 35% muslim. Same Ekiti where it is very difficult to find an indigenous community that is predominantly muslim. Majority of the muslims in Ekiti state are even settlers from other parts of Yorubaland. To see an indigenous Ekiti family that are muslims is very rare.
In Ondo, only the Akoko and a part of Ore axis have significant muslims. Many communities in Ondo state do not even have a mosque.

See him claiming that Northern Edo is a muslim enclave .... Is it only Etsako west LGA among 6 LGAs that will make Edo north a muslim enclave?
Cos as it stands now, only Etsako west LGA still has a muslim majority in Edo state. Etsako east is now overwhelmingly christian while Etsako central is now predominantly christian. Even Etsako west where Auchi town is located is now becoming 50/50.
My brother's wife and business partner is from Etsako west so I know this place very well. These people are leaving islam very rapidly. My brother's wife was from a muslim family of about 24 children, they all practiced islam while growing up, but today, all of them are christians except 1 of them.

One thing I have observed is that Igbos are a very emotional and sentimental people. They are not happy that muslims dominate Nigeria, hence they think by rubbing it in the faces of we christians from other tribes, it will make us hate Nigeria more.

@Pazienza, JohnDon12, Yujin & co.
I am a christian from the middlebelt. I already dislike the core-north and resent their domination of Nigeria. I am also tired of the country and wish it dissolves or be restructured. However, I will not use lies or sentimental blackmail in order to see to this. Thank you.

candidtalk:
You people and your obsession with comparing yourselves to the Yorubas. We don't follow others blindly. We hold individuals accountable for their actions and reject them if we believe they have done Wrong. That is the Omoluabi ethos and that is what has made the Yorubas, who can go out and face the Army and security forces to march for GEJ, turn their back on Sowore.

You Igbos, on the other hand, have nothing like our Omoluabi ethos in your culture. You support, glorify and reward wrongdoing. You are comfortable with criminal behaviour. This is why you all support Kanu blindly. If Kanu were Yoruba he would be a pathetic and lonely figure we would ignore. Sowore is trending on your lips but in showing the Yorubas are consistent in thinking and action, the world can see that the likes of Adeyinka Grandson, Deji Adeyanju and other Yoruba radicals are shunned. When Yorubas emerge who are the real deal (eg Awolowo, Fela, Fawehinmi, Soyinka et al) then they are supported and exalted. We are not Igbos to casually queue behind any common scammer, crook or self-serving opportunist.

If not that Igbos love criminality and glorify in it, can you deny Kanu flouted his bail conditions openly and disdainfully thereby showing a disregard for the law. Yet you lot continue to follow and praise him blindly. Sowore meanwhile has not even been convicted of anything but the Yorubas have ideology distanced themselves from him because they know a fraud when they see one. He hypocritically wants to " run with the Hares and hunt with the Hounds and Yoruba understand he cannot be both. I.e politician and Revolutionary at the same time.

OlujobaSamuel:
Lol, like seriously, I don't know if I should love or despise him.
He tried in infrastructure, but his education policy was just too absurd. He destroyed my Alma Mata with his foolish policy. I attended one of the state Unity schools, FGC sef dey envy us then, na so e come change uniform, turned school to day sch, sch legacy was removed, some day schools too were doing traditional/religious attire competition.
Though I support Oyetola in the last election, but it's surprising that people no question the party for debt/salary owed. If you can pull such stunt, then you are the best to handle ASUU, nlc, nma etc at the national level

oyatz:
Eh en.



Igbo cow?





Okay, thanks for this new piece of information.
As soon as I leave this mud House in Oshogbo, I will tell every other person living in mud houses around to start buying cow Igbo which will soon flood our markets.


Thanks once again.

Hotfreezers:
It is because you're alive that you're collecting pension. Maybe if they had killed you the way Pdp was killing people under Oyinlola, Akala and Gbenga Daniel, your next of kin would value peaceful living.

Modphase:
So the cursed Ikpeazu is not owing salary n pension ba ? E be like say Na daily you de take 3 bottle of foolishness just to stay mentally foolish on NL everyday.

EvilMetahuman:
teacher uses cain to whip sense into dull students head offline.

Since I can't whup sense into your head online, I have to point your stupidity to you.

Its not curses or insults. Just describing you.

Modphase:
Waiting for your to address the part where the foolish PDP lunatic was sharing kerosene to win re-election, is that the same curse you wish the Yorubas ?! It will not happen your people are the ones that must die from the plaque the PDP as imposed on you.

EvilMetahuman:
lmao, where is the argument?
Boy, I'm schooling you. You are to stupiid for me to have argument with.



You should be more concerned about your governors buying your future with 2litres of kerosene.

Flat head flat brain.

EvilMetahuman:
my father and mother are not bastards because they won't work against yoruba interest.

They are not omo ale, omo iran kiran to n fi owo osi juwe ile.

Only bastards do. Pick where you and your family belong.

raumdeuter:
That is Emeka in his state owing salaries

As at the time of filing this report, Abia civil servants and hospital management board member are owed nine months’ salaries; secondary school teachers, 10 months’ salaries; ASUBEB, six months’ salaries; ASETEC Arochukwu, 15 months’ salaries; and pensioners 25 months’ pay.

raumdeuter:
I suggest you go ahead and satisfy yourself even make Emeka the governor of Osun and let us see how much food it will put on your table

raumdeuter:
But voting an Ibo candidate will put food on your table

Shey bi south west governors will deternmine what goes on in the center.

Southwest governors performance will build rail from lagos to oshogbo or lagos ibadan road.

Ggovernors are not elected. If you are truly yoruba. Mehn I shame for your level of stupidity.

EvilMetahuman:
that's why we need to educate bastards among us that we have to unite politically.
That's how politics is played in nigeria.


You can vote against apc or pdp in your state, no problem. State is close to the people. and its for yorubas alone.
Nigeria is a different ball game.


North already got this memo. They pushed single candidate that has their interest for presidential and voted different parties in their states

Nigeria politics is not what you play with sophistication or aggression but with brain.

Igbos stuck and voted enmasse for jonathan despite poor performance and their people getting bombed by boko haram all over abuja and zero projects. because their people are in key positions in his government.

Yorubas that has been the greatest beneficiaries of buhari's governments in the south are the ones not using their brain.

They think nigeria Is some kind of single cell organsm that you just need to fix one problem and everthing is perfect.
and atiku and pdp that have been their for 16years and created most of these problems will come and fix over night.

Nigeria is complex country with many countries inside a country and protecting your interest politically should come first before anything else.

EvilMetahuman:
looks like you have comprehension problem or just naturally dumb.

Why do you keep referring to atiku and buhari like they are yorubas? Didn't yorubas give obasanjo block of votes in 2003 despite failing woefully in south west or what are you smoking gan?

I made it clear its okay to vote against apc in 2023 if you are a pdp member. I don't expect apc to have 100% vote. Didn't apc have over 500k votes in south east or didn't pdp have over 3million votes in the north?

So what are you smoking gan that is making you spew garbage repeatedly like a broken record?

EvilMetahuman:
it is understandable if you are a pdp member and vote for your party candidate.
I'm sure active voting pdp members in southwest are not upto 500k

What I can't phantom is a normal yoruba that doesn't belong to any party going through this thread and thought to himself, fhuck yoruba im voting igbo candidate.

Only a retar.ded person(who are mostly igbos by the way) or flat head would do that.

No yoruba with functioning brain will read through this thread and still think its a smart idea to vote igbo candidate over yoruba candidate ever.

you are a bird-brain fhucktard. I now see you are just stupiid dumb, not just a bastard

My post was clear enough. I didn't even mention buhari or atiku today.

I said its stupid omo ale like yourself that will go and vote for obi if apc presents someone like osinbajo because of tinubu. Who cares about buhari and atiku? Are they yorubas? you piece of shiit.

Any yoruba that votes against yoruba candidate in 2023 is omo ale. I exclude no one.
