Iruenabere isn't an Igbo name.

That is one way to get a job. Funny

Anyway to address the whole topics: all this is just noise, complete noise. I don't approve of any of the group but ACN&CPC merger would put an impact on PDP in two regions (SW and North), the two political party is barely getting supporters from SE, SS and MB. In these three regions, they are literally begging people to join them therefore I sincerely wonder how they propose in "finishing PDP in 2015". Both ACN/CPC and PDP are just corrupt mofos looking for their next biggest pay, no difference, nothing. All politics and chest-beating as usual.

samfibby: PDP, ACN, CPC. BIRDS OF THE SAME FEATHER

flock together. Thank you jare!!!

They all the same and it is a damn shame even.

Afro_Blue: saw this on another website .....

In as much as I agree with this map, like I said before there would be a few adjustment 1.) ND shouldn't be greedy. Ontisha is part of SE so naturally they would follow SE wherever SE goes. 2.) Anioma would equally follow SE whereever SE go.

^^^^Dude at least try and change your writing style if you are going to pretend to be another moniker while agreeing with yourself. I don't get why you people don't realize it is always it is the writing style that is the give away.

Goddess12: If you read the 24 pages and still asking this question then you need to see a doctor, cos we have said over and over again that we trust Awolowo decision whether fanikayode is truthful or not, promised president or not, we trust Awolowo judgement, for we know he did what he knew was best for us at the time conprendo?

Maybe you are reading something completely different from what's written on this thread. Last I checked, every one of the awo apologists attacked Kayode persona and disregarded his words on the term that Kayode's father was Awolowo's political opponent therefore his words must have an agenda over it while at the same time, none providing evidence that disproves his words. The whole argument started over the two terms(i.e: Gowon promised Awo presidency and the Biafran troops did not invade Lagos but literally asked for permission before heading there, though denied access). So far, reading from page 1 going up, the two terms were the main focus, the main discussion, some way, somehow, someone derailed it to something COMPLETELY irrelevant. How the f2k the terms of who or what released Awo came into the picture is a mystery to all. Including the whole What killed Awolowo, what was Ojukwu intention, etc, etc relevant. I understand the motives behind it; it is simply psychology and it worked perfectly. As far as I'm concerned, none have dis-proven nor given reason to doubt Kayode's statement thus defeating the so called knowledge some are pathetically given to themselves despite all the derailment and pulling articles about sh1t completely out of the topic. All I'm reading is the same bs repeated over and over again with individuals, like always, disregarding others asking for prove to back up their statement. (I.e: the same thing thus like I said, a waste of my time and I cannot believe I wasted that much time on it). If you all agree with kayode's words then rewind and remind me again what is the argument about?

ezeagu: These Nigerians get so emotional over the mention of the east leaving the failed stated. It's like the Igbo are Tina Turner and the rest are Ike. It's almost stalker-like.

Abi ooo. Getting angry and lashing out over the fact biafra applied for UN membership. See taking medicine for another man decision. Na wa oooo. I laugh die

Anyway at topic, im still applauding them. They are doing things the right way.

I can't believe i read all 24 pages. What a waste of time. After all those back and forth argument still none of awo apologist had proven kayode words as false nor given any reason for individuals to disregard his words instead all ppl are getting is insult, change of topic to something completely irrelevant, attacks to kayode family, etc. What a f2king waste of time. Smfh.
Well at least some pieces of the puzzles are coming in.

The truth is coming out. Ojukwu statement "awo was the best president Nigeria never had" now makes a whole lot of sense. Well the man deserved what he got, that is what happens when you are blinded by greed.

Ileke-IdI:
So you want them to be the Igbo/Delta "boy boy"? Why does it sting you that Yorubas choose whoever they want to support without caring about how sad their "enemies" in the SS/SE would feel?

Every heard of a enemy of my enemy's enemy is also my friend? Maybe Yorubas see better alliance with the North.

I've also noticed that whenever there's a XX vs Yorubas, Igbos support XX. Am I lying?

I don't give a f2k who yoruba associate with. I don't give a f2k of they want to be hausa/fulani boy boy. They can associate with sa, akan, india, Liberia, kenya, Muslim, iraq, whoever e no concern. What concern me is dat when your ppl are on this your online defending mood for north, keep igbo out of ur bs. In the end, they always end up making a damn fool out of themselves.

Epalos: Delta ke? not all of delta ooo, may be ibo settlement in delta state like the former refugee camp that is now known as Asaba.

Asaba is better than all your SW villages put together and that is a big huge FACT.Typical 1diots, y do u ppl that have never traveled out of ur villages, open mouth to talk about shit u ppl do not know is a mystery to all. Why do you ppl like displaying your ignorance without shame. Tufiakwa. 1diot, there are more igbo community in delta state beside asaba. Travel out of ur f2king villages and learn things.

One more thing, I've read post on this thread by individuals that have long identified their ethnicity which last i checked are non igbo. Ill even give u one papabrowne. A edo state, benin, man. Now use that brain God gave you to think and try to pick out the rest, that have identified themselves too many times that only an Ignorant man wouldn't be able to get them.

I laugh @ yorubas. Any argument between north and delta, dey are there fighting 4 north, any argument between north and igbo, they are there fighting for north. Any fight between north and MD, the same thing yet they wonder and get angry when ppl call them hausa/fulani boy boy. You ppl never cease to amaze me.

kettykin: Clearly there is a big difference between the SW and Lagos , prior to independence Lagos has been an economic hub administered as the Lagos colony, Eventually Lagos became the capital of Nigeria while still located in the SW after 1960 the Lagos province evolved to be a state (not the State Capital) inside the western Region by 1967 . Basically when all the Economic levers of the weak Nigerian economy namely the HQ of all oil and gas and oil/gas servicing companies were relocated to lagos from the eastern part of the country during the civil war that marked the turn around of lagos from a national capital to a commercial capital. This had led to banks putting up their HQ because of oil dollars in Lagos and also it has led to telecommunication companies putting their hubs trans atlantic cable hubs where they felt would be a more favorable spot.
The worst of it all was that after the civil war in the 70s those who felt they won the war decided to concentrate all maritime activities in Lagos , building 3 deep sea ports (Apapa,tin can island and the RORO port all in lagos )in lagos rather than diversifying the maritime operations around the Eastern ports Port harcourt, Calaber and also warri port , this has led to Nigeria having only single entry port city for goods and services while other loctions where starved of port activities .

The lagos is walking on borrowed legs and surviving from the stolen oil company HQs of Niger Deltan stolen during the civil war. Lagos is also a city built by stealing port and maritime activites meant for other Mairtime cities , How long lagos can survive on this stolen assets , only time will tell. little wonder people from the SW dont even want real federalism or restructure of the federation with their poltical leader Tinubu seeking alliance with Buhari who represents the the feudalist in the north.

Wow best post I've seen on nl in months. 200% support

Dede1: Your post above indicated you are as dumb and clueless as Asari Dokubo.

Leave bliss4lyfe alone. Ogini bu your problem? Do you want to create an enemy anywhere you go? She's your sister, or in your case your granddaughter, leave her alone.

geeez: Okay that didn't happen. Nigeria didn't divide but why is the South West more like South Africa than the South East 40 years after?

Why do all indices of development show that he South West is more developed than any other region?

Do you all think many of us have not been to your area hence you all come on NL to lie? There is a difference between lagos,which by the way is not anywhere close to SA. That is an insult to SA, anyway there is a difference between lagos and the entire SW. Excluding lsgos, SW isn't anywhere close to as developed as any other region excluding north. Mind you other regions have difficult obstacle they dealing with. SS with government neglect and oil spills and SE with also government neglect thus forcing the community to build everything for themselves without fg's help. Now imagine if both region do not have this obstacle like both sw and north has, where would both region be.

Who is onah nwachukwu? is that his sister or wife? If na wife, nice wifey-material him don pick

Anyway it is a bit humanitarian he choose to spend his 30th birthday helping others. Nice

Good deed never goes un-rewarded.

He's under a new moniker. Alj_harem account will probably come back in a few months or so

FG please tell us, If BH isn't a terrorist group, then BH is what then?

Desola: Furthermore, must you indict the Yorubas or throw back handed slur to make your point of forming alliance with the ibos to secede from Nigeria? Who told the arsewipe that Yorubas would go the way of the Hausas? To each his own and everyone would answer the name given to him by his father. Yorubas would not be partakers in the Nigerian project any longer this time and we have subtly shown that by sticking to our 'regional' party. We are not going to war but cleverly distinguishing ourselves from project Nigeria and that, I believe is the way to go. The ijaws and ibos can go to war while we sit back and watch but should you bring your shit to our doorsteps, you would then know that timidity is not stupidity.

You are pretty much saying the exact thing he is saying. You just saw one mention about Yoruba and you go on attack mode. Na wa ooh.

The man clearly stated he does not want a war and he would prefer if we all come together and figure out how to get out of this situation together peacefully but if a war does break out, everyone would "form loyalty to his tribe" thus, the Hausa shouldn't depend on any group likewise his people wouldn't depend on any group.

There are times Dokunbo sounds crazy to me but there are times he makes sense. I agree with alot of points this man just laid down for us on this thread especially this part

The easiest way to solve the problem is to convocate a national dialogue where we will all sit down and talk. But if we continue to postpone it, we are only postponing the doomsday because as the attacks continue in the North, and if they continue to kill the Igbos, one day, one mad Igbo man will get up and say enough is enough, and he will go to Ama Hausa (Hausa Community) in Enugu, Owerri, Aba and in all the Igboland and attack and kill innocent northerners. Then, there will be reprisal this way and that way.

This is what probably fueled the killings in Asaba-Ontisha region over that one northern police officer that killed an Igbo man in onitsha; in addition, it is probably the main reason why the fulani-Igbo disagreement in Enugu that usually results to a few arguments here and there have now turned bloody. In the past, a problem that is solved by an argument have turned to attacks in the present yet every politician just dey siddon look. Probably is the same reason some SS regions are attacking mosques, etc (who knows). There are so much a person can take before they explode like wild-fire. Like Dokunbo said, one pissed off Igbo man would wake up one day and do the unspeakable, disregarding both ohaneze and the elders preaching of peace. There are so much an organization can hold onto and it seems both ohaneze and elders are losing their grip over the younger youths.

History is slowing edging closer to repeat itself in this country and it a damn shame Nigerians haven't learned from their history.

Ki-Katanga:
Can Nigeria settle its tensions or is a peaceful separation the best way forward?

Yes. Unfortunately, if we take alook at Nigeria since it's independence and how the country is gradually going from bad to worse, all region hating and fighting eachother, college graduates turning to criminals or ritualism just because they couldn't find a job once they graduate, separatism groups coming out in all regions of Nigeria, it shouldn't take much to analyze the outcome of Nigeria. I don't forsee Nigeria ever changing nor do I see an improving future for this nation. Sadly, whenever I try to imagine the future of Nigeria, it saddens me to say all I see is another Somalia in the making. Constant killing and fights, just complete lawlessness. The problem with Nigeria is that we are trying so hard to hold onto it and claim "one nation, one people" but going through these whole website and other Nigerian websites, can we actually call ourselves "one nation, one people"?

Antivirus92: no igbo clan traces their root to ibibio,if not the ibibios in arochukwu.

I assumed as much. Other than arochukwu's, I've never heard of Igbo clan that traced their origins to Ibibio.

Antivirus92: please tell me how i sound ethnocentric here.

Re-read your post but this time replace every Igbo reference with Ibibio and replace every Ibibio/ND reference to Igbo. Now tell me how does that sound to you?

Actually I'll do it for you

you know that everywhere that an ibibio man stepped on that he must leave a legacy there. In the olden days, those Igbo people traded heavily with Niger-delta groups like Ibibio, Ijaw, etc. So we, the ibibio, influenced them, the igbos,,some parts heavily while some lightly.that's why some have a language of mixed with ibibio,some have traces of ibibio culture/tradition,some answer ibibio names.

Now how does that sound to you?

Antivirus92: you know that everywhere that an igbo man stepped on that he must leave a legacy there.

I'm sorry to say this antivirus, but sometimes whenever I read your post, you come off as Ethnocentric. You gotta change that dude

Didn't we have a thread similar to this thread if my memory serves me right?

Anyway, my best friend's family are of the ibibio stock and I have asked a somewhat similar question to his family (i.e: why Igbos and Ibibos have similar cultures in some areas?). The answer I got from the family is that it is because Ibibio and Igbos traded for eons plus the two ethnic group mixed up with each other since history can remember thus the two groups copied from eachother cultures and language. Also supposedly, there are some Igbo clans that trace their origin to Ibibios (I'm alittle bit suspicious of that claim though. Other than Arochukwu, who are Igbos mixed with ibibio, I've never heard of an Igbo clan that traced their origin to Ibibio). To answer your question odumchi: it probably isn't a mere coincidence. one of the two groups might have picked up the culture during a trading interaction and it expanded within their community.

Well that is good, Thank God for that. Welcome back Igwe

Epalos: Are you blind? what abt all the posts by your people, well blindness may be the new epidemic in iboland.

LMFAO. Unfortunately for you, very few Igbos replied on this thread. Before I made an assumptions on how many have replied hence the 4 count but now I actually did a head count from page 0-this page and there are only 11 Igbos that replied which are mr.chippychappy, sweetcocoa, ACM10, manchy7531, Kechukwu, Obiagu, Ezeuche, Mpumalanga, rapmoney, strangest and lastly me. The others that replied have one time or the another identified themselves as SS on past posts. The remaining are one MB, north of course and yoruba. Other than Mr.chippychappy, sweetcoca, rapmoney and strangest negative post about yoruba, the rest of the Igbos that commented discussed the Topic with no reflection to Yoruba, etc. Though mpumalanga and I diverted away thanks to another poster. Like I said before, e no be Igbos fault if SS are calling una names. Learn to fight your battles without seeing an Igbo "boogeyman". Just saying!
As for the other post of yours directed to me: You got that right!! You can tell yourself whatever to change history but it can never change. It not going to remove the reason the man got demoted. E no concern me anymore anyways, I've lost interest with this thread hours ago so wetin you wan say to yourself, fine and dandy by me.

dayokanu: They probably never heard og him because they were hiding instead of going to war front.

Go and ask any Biafra soldier who Black Scorpion was. he turned Igbos into shooting targets.

No wonder the article was pulled from a Ibo website yet Ibos dont know about him.

They dont know the commander of the 3rd marine Commandos? How would they know when they were fighting the war from Abidjan or on the laps of prepubescent Biancar

LMFAO comedy

He is a big fat NOBODY!!!! Unfeared, easily deafeated but big mouted whimp. That is what adekunle is FACT. He got demoted simply because he lost every fight he got in. If not for the fact im using my phone. To type all this, i would included links to help you out. Someone even posted the links on other threads. Google it. Noone knew him FACT, very few knew him, abd most learned about him on this very site. I f2king dare to go to any igbo community you can think of and ask them who adekunle or black scorpion was, i bet less than 1% will even recognized the name talkless his action pr rather yet lack of action. Go to the ex-biafran soilders and do the same thing, and the answer would be the same. I dare you, i double dare you. Lmfaoooo.


Sorry to break it to you but your black scorpion was a NOBODY. Lmfaooo, my uncle told me if any soilder was seen as ikemba, information traveled around biafra soilders like wildfire in an effort to warn the soilders so prepare themselves incase they ever ran into the said person yet black scorpion did not even reach his barracks neither my bf's father barracks. Both men were stationed in different barracks. ROFLMFAO @ SHOOTING TARGETS yet they barely talked about him nor did they even know him. Plus he lost every fight. Comedy to say the least. I hope you take my dare. I sincerely hope you do.

dayokanu: Of course he didnt do anything. if he did something, No one would be alive in Alaigbo. better thank God he didnt do anything.

Hope you see the part in bold written by a foreign Journalist




http://www.kwenu.com/biafra/adekunle_interview.htm

Okay and how does that remove the fact he lost every fight he got into to the point he got demoted because of it. The most important man in the Nigerian war my yansh yet every single person i know that experienced the war have never heard of him. My uncle and my bf father were biafran soliders and they never heard of him either. Most igbos that knew of adekunle learned about him on this website. The fact is adekunle was a nobody that tried to make himself appear more important than he actually was. Most important person in the war. Na wa ooo. gowon, ediffong and ojokwu are what? Lmfao,knowing European writers he probably heard adekunle call himself that hence he wrote it. If adekunle is the most important man in the war on the nigerian side, gowon was what then?

Malubi: [/color][color=#006600] It seems some people dont understand English. Asari's statement is a conditional statement that has no legal implication against him. He said 'IF SOMETHING HAPPEN TO JONATHAN'. Apart from that what about the people that said they will make Nigeria Ungovernable for Jonathan and are doing it now, are they above the law. It seems some people dont understand English. Asari statement is a conditional statement that has no legal implication against him. He said 'IF SOMETHING HAPPEN TO JONATHAN'.

Apart from that what about peaple that said they will make Nigeria Ungovernable for Jonathan and are doing it now, are they above the law. ASARI is correct. Notherners are not contributing anything towards the developement of Nigeria. And they want to spoil our country (NIGERIA) for us.

I don't have the strength to rewrite what i wrote before. If you people do not understand what i wrote, skip several pages and read the second remark i made about the post. I expanded my intake. I don't disagree with asari remarks,well some areas.

mpumalanga: The repetition of an impotent man about his past ejaculation
is boring in the ear of an active man that boast with the action
of the present.Where was adekunle during june 12? June 12 confronted
his people directly and nothing happened because they can only fight
in alliance with

Leave adekunle alone because 'even' adekunle knows that there is nothing in ADEKUNLE.

Adekunle lost in every fight he got into; he got demoted by the nigeria army because of it. The only thing that man was known for was his interview where he boosted if he gets to biafra, he'll attack anyone and everything. Ironically, he couldnt back up his words. Everyone is aware adekunle was nothing. The only person that sees him as something is dayokanu. Adekunle is to dayokanu as satellite pictures is to muiswa. You should have known that by now. You should let be.
