sweetgala:
Have you been to Oyo. All those beggars are Hausa and Fulani , I don't think the Oyo government has found it necessary to relocate them back north yet.

I lived in Ibadan for 10 years I would know

I see a lot of hipocricy in ur points, just admit it, Igbos made grave mistakes in this election by voting based on tribal and religious lines, and who told u Igbos are not interested in positions? It is ppl like u that paint ur tribe in bad light and bring unnecessary rivalry which will end u guys as bitter losers.

IBO's have lost all their battles since civil war, and still losing till date cos of ppl like u.

Come Saturday ibo's will still vote in Lagos as if its their fathers land, and trust me this time there will be consequences

I am not yoruba, am Delta so don't cry more than the bereaved.[/s]

sokera:
wish south east could step up to be Senate president but they messed up ...

NoreenUG:
Dumbass, read through the internet. I haven't seen ONE single Igbo person LAMENTING about not getting a position in your APC party. Infact, Yoruba people are the only ones I've seen so far weeping and lamenting. Don't believe me? go through the tweets if Omojuwa, AfroVII, Ogundamisi and the other Yoruba morrons on Twitter. They are replete with lamentations and accusations against the Igbos for rejecting Ngige at the polls out of 'tribalism'.
Now, let's even leave Twitter. let's even look at THIS very thread from the start. Were you not the same person who jumped in lamenting about "Igbos overlooked again"? I mean, it is right there on this thread. Did you see any Igbo person complaining about whatever bullshitt post APC has to offer? Na una e still dey pepper pass for body. And as no Igbo person has complained, it keeps killing you inside.
But we shall not lose focus. We are united in our quest to completely purge our lands in the East of the vermin known as APC. And come saturday, we shall complete the onslaught by booting out Rochas, regardless of whatever 'offices' you're promising. It only benefits the office holder and his cronies.
You can remain on the internet and keep lamenting about Igbos for all I care. You wish we gave a damn

NoreenUG:
the only thing I've noticed here so far is that it's yoruba ppl who seem more bothered about igbos and whatever shitty useless position apc is looking to offer them. even when I checked twitter on ngige's defeat, it's mostly yoruba ppl weeping more than the bereaved.
when will you get it past ur thick skulls that we're not interested in whatever 'position' ur party has to offer if it doesn't translate to positive progress on the lives of the general populace?
what did david mark's senate presidency do for the idomas? what did bankole do for ogun state? what did tambuwal do for sokoto?
in case you don't know ur history, the igbos have had more that five senate presidents, and they brought nothing to the table, why should we be swayed by imbecillic tokenism?
or is that how u ppl count progress where u come from? by the number of ur brothers holding public positions as against the positive impact on ur lives? if that's the case, then the core north should be the most progressive region in the country judging from the number if heads of state it has produced, no?

pls grow the fff7ck up and accept rejection. the south east does NOT wish to be a party to your hypocritical change, and come saturday, god willing, we shall finish the statement by ejecting that fat buffoon rochas okorocha.

Jakpon:
Lazy Yeribas we Igbos are the one that helped them develop Lagos. Useless Ndi ofe people

phlio:
historically speaking history of ilorin is so complex and unrealistic to achieve.cos it a lost battle that can never be regain again.am from kwara but ilorin town is a mystery

EUROBOMBER:
Blame Seun and the MODs for the explosion this matter has generated on Nairaland.

I think this matter should be given a rest already; more than enough has been said about it. Igbos have condemned the statement likewise well-meaning Yorubas. What I cannot understand is why more than 60% of the topics in the politics section is Oba this, Oba that!

The MODs should do their job and mass-delete all these threads about Oba this and that please.

I remember using a liquid soap I bought in an Italian supermarket as a body cream for almost one year before my German roommate that could read Italian discovered my folly. Same thing with packaged dog food in an attempt to try new thing

Whats your own experience?

ehie:
[s]Igbo Matter no dey d end..

have you notice they never address allegations of other Nigerians owning land and being in position of power in their land , they instead deflect it with abuses and accusations?
when they answer such questions then Oba Akiou will apologise


because they are locked in their collective greed twisted archaic reasoning (45 years old) it is like fighting with a man man in the village square

1. 1 thing i have learnt is that as long as we take the igbos seriously a dream of a bountiful and great Nigeria will never materialize because their mindset is not our mindset...
2. we should treat them like a mother treats a rebellious child who is determined to turn out bad
3 Greed is their soft spot so we can use it in dealing with them.
4.Never trust them

jpphilips:
Igbos in Lagos don't have PVC, even if they did, they registered in their villages, the reason they travelled en masse to vote Jonathan, will the PVC work in Lagos
Igbos don't take govt activities seriously, dont be surprised majority of them will be pepper souping while voting is in progress.

I am yet to see any South-south state where Igbos are given political offices, let alone elective offices, it is so bad that in Rivers state, non indigenes cannot join their state civil service.

SS gave Igbos the Abandon property shocker, I have tried to understand the Igbo-SS marriage to no avail, can someone make me see reasons?

FitnessNigeria:
Chai . The way people talk about what they don't know is really funny.

In igboland, the areas I have been to. I saw Good representation of northerners all over the area. Nobody cares that they are northerners, but I have seen few yourobas selling their medicine. Igbo people transact business with them, they don't give a hoot about where they came from. Everybody is minding their business.

Please if you haven't been to anywhere igboland before, don't come online and show your ignorance to the world.

Infact, I must say that the northerners enjoy much freedom in igboland than igbos enjoy in the north.

opc dey kill ppl abi?

Collynzo9:
There is no part of Igbo land where you don't have a very large Hausa population.
They are everywhere in the east, from Abakaliki to Aba.

pazienza:
On the contrary, Ndiigbo feel superior to all Nigerian groups, and we have many reasons to. Biafra is the pride of all Igbo people, it's a rallying point for us, and reminds us of what we can achieve when United. Ojukwu sworn that Biafra had the strongest army in black Africa, and he proved it, for even with the help of the British, USSR and Egyptians, Biafrans killed more Nigerian soldiers, without those foreign powers, We would have over ran Nigeria in a matter of days.


Ph is in the hands of Ikwerres, can we say the same of Lagos? What ever happened to the Aworis and Egun natives that you Yorubas from Osun, Ondo and the rest have over run Lagos, the Nigerian factor is currently blinding them, but in an Independen Odua, they will demand for total control of their lands and send you leeches back to Osun and co.


Ndiigbo has no guilt whatsoever for attempting to leave the Zoo, we are only angry that we didn't succeed at the first attempt.


Nzeogwu acted on his own, at the time of his coup, Ndiigbo controlled 2 of the four regions of Nigeria, change in power/ government was the last thing we needed.


No, we don't feel the North have upper hands over us, we just realized that with their southern vassals, they are always going to be a formidable opponent in Nigerian politics.

LoveDecay:
ha ha disintegration of Nigeria. Goodluck with that, how can a group of people who cant sit down and speak with one voice profit from the disintegration of Nigeria. It's like comparing a family with a wealthy father with 3 chilidren. These 3 children cant agree about the color the house should be painted talkless of their father's legacy. What do you think will happen when the father dies and lives no will. You think there will be peace, each child will scheme to gain an upper hand. This is the same way , Biafra will look if they seceede - but we know secession is next to impossible in Africa it's against the rules . You need to start a war and probably loss a couple of million lives before anyone looks at you.
Think Sudan.

If we can look back to the source of this yoruba - ibo problem . The ibo people actually started it, the same way the place this country into a spiral of unending coup plots and military rule. The ibo people used to claim the north was there problem and that northerners are killing them or kill them whenever their is a riot . Today, its yoruba land. We hear very little of the north nowadays, I guess the south east has accepted the north actually does have an upper hand against them regardless of their low education levels.

The yoruba people seem to understand that if they do not assert their historical and cultural ownership of Lagos state it will turn into another port-harcourt , where the owners of the land cant even speak out. Again, the east remains bias - they want to live in your land enjoying equal right but they are never willing to grant such benefits to outsiders in their lands. The results of the recent presidential election prooves this.

The results from Lagos prooves that Lagos is the most mordern and tolerant city in Nigera - citing the victory of the ibo aspirants in elections held in Lagos. It's impossible for a yoruba man born and bred in Lagos - even married to an Igbo woman to achieve such a feat.

One may claim that their victory is due to their numbers but we need to sit down and ask ourselves will the ibo people settle down in Lagos and feel so free as to compete in elections held in Lagos with hopes to win. Let's ignore the fact that they ran under the banner of the PDP (which is strongly correlated with their victory).

Ibo land needs to accept that nobody in Nigeria is actually after them but thier guilt of a cessation attempt and Nzoegwu's evils haunt thier conscience whenever they interact politically with other Nigerians. We have forgotten this however, but as long as they support the individuals who continue to fight for this "pipe dream biafra" they will always feel inferior because that is what biafra symbolizes the inferiority of the ibo people in this great country called Nigeria.

saxywale:
You may be correct. My flatmate at University some years ago is from Enugu and he tells me so many strange stories of how people poison each others palm wine and beer in their village all cos of jealousy and envy. Imagine, neighbours trying to kill each other cos of envy. I still find it hard to believe though.

Lies.....Igbos are every where in South west Nigeria.. from Osun to Ogun.

pazienza:
Yorubas were also having deadly wrestling matches amongst themselves they called Kirijiri war or something like that, I guess they don't know the meaning of war, they were at each other's throat, they couldn't tolerate each other.

The Nigerian project helped them and gave them unity, Akintola and Awo simply helped them channel the hatred they had for each other towards Ndiigbo, in Igbo hatred, they were united, that was the purpose of the Yoruba Ronu speech by Akintola!


They are scared of Nigeria's disintegration, cos they would lose their object of unity ie Igbo hatred, and probably fall apart and return to their pre Nigerian Kiriji wrestling match days.

raumdeuter:
[s]Ibos are very hostile people even to fellow ibos

Some years ago the governor of Abia sacked all non indigene even those from other Ibo states

On this forum you would see thread from Anambra attacking Imo, Anambra vs Enugu. Have you ever seen an Oyo vs Osun or Ondo thread before?[/s]

Onyiibazz:
[s]Bro you're not in any way better than your alleged typical Ebonyi men. When we talk about tribalism, we always tend to point fingers far away, not remembereing that we also harbour intra ethnic tribalism too. Presumably you're an Igbo man, and probably one of those that have been criticizing the Oba of Lagos latest comments, but i bet you that those words of his are not in any way different from the trash you just spilled above?[/s].
