What do kids know


When you defeat them with your replies,
Break them down with your good points,
And give them a smack down with your wisdom and they have nothing to counter you with anymore,
Then they resort to abuse, curses, and swear words.
That is one of their characteristics on Nairaland.
Dem MANNA, teaching 'em kids MANNERS since 1957

Suya man, how much for one roasted vulture lap?

thebosstrevor1:
Yoruba Muslim or yoruba Christians, they are still yorubas, sons of their oduduwa

You are yoruba- a natural born expert at deceiving yourself.

nedu666:
Igbos should do the same respond to positive news, ignore negative news desgined to denigrate lgbos. Let me tell you if lgbos stop responding on nairaland. B4 man and God, nairaland will die off completely. Igbo news and response sustain nairaland. That's why lgbo thread reach pg 20. Check thread on anambra, imo, enugu started by sypder042 then are in pg 400 and above. Chk thread on abeojkuta started by gbawe, it stop at pg 45 and died off

That means yoruba are boring.

thebosstrevor1:
This is the yoruba opportunity to get the presidency, Tinubu, Yorubas need to support their man.

Nigeria is not a place for fancy political ideas but the land for real and tribal politics, just like the United states have identity politics here in Nigeria it is tribal politics, understand this and have peace.

In 2023, The yorubas need to come out and vote for Tinubu, with the support of the North, the presidency in 2023 is for Tinubu and the yorubas.

This thread has clearly revealed ^^ this man as a yoruba muslim after many years of lying to himself.

Adabite:
I tell you bro. I think they need to be more strategic in their approach.

Jagabandits and brains are two parrallel lines that can meet. No strategy at all. Osinbade's camp would be laughing at the mugus.

cuddlyaplasta4:
Baba Tinubu , these political neophytes can't lace Jagaban shoes.

I don break the chain of paid Tinubu posts, oya lament full bucket.

^^ These paid jagabandit monkeys straight from BAT whatsapp group don't know how to make random comments and non-sequential posts without raising suspicion of their status as hungry Tinubu NURTW urchins.

A bloody terrorist opens his mouth.

I'm sure he is now a great man according to yoruba muslims.

helinues:
And treated Massob members like animals with James Nwafor in collaboration

Lover of Ibo lives, we don see you. Mugu.

Omenka's big mouth definitely missing on thread as usual.

Lordviccodaguru aka Victor Adaojo. How far buhari still dey pay?

Please reply me with your auto-boring line 'e shock you abi?'

Miracle2022:
as far as they disobey the constitution of federal republic of Nigeria.
If you want to get your country,you know where to go

Where do we go?

*let listen to the yoruba man deceive himself usual*

obailala:
First of all, I dont remember mentioning anywhere that I'm Yoruba. So maybe you need to calm down and correct your "if he doesnt say something to massage my ego, he must be Yoruba" mentality.

And then talking of 1999, that was a peculiar case when the military simply handed over power almost unilaterally to OBJ as a compensation for the MKO saga. Besides, OBJ whilst being a Yoruba man wasnt even the consensus Yoruba candidate (Falae was). Meanwhile, I dont think I've ever come across anywhere any Yoruba person used an OBJ presidency to mock Igbos; perhaps you can point out any examples of that?

And then you keep saying Igbos are elected in foreign countries; how can you keep being so naive to compare foreign politics to Nigerian politics? I also mentioned above that the focus is on collective politics, not individual achievement

Mr Oba...whatever, I don't my ego massaged, it doesn't swell my bank account. However, I stopped reading at the bolded. Your lame attempt at appearing dispassionate and objective, failed the test of prejudice right there.

This very forum is littered with invectives of mockery against the East from your yoruba comrades telling us '...we yorubas have produced OBJ as president, Igbos will never be president' . It is you are either totally blind or wallowing in the usual yoruba self-deceit, thinking you are smarter than everyone else.

I pretended I didn't know your antecedent on this forum in replying you, but you still failed the test of objectivity. Move, let hear from sincere folks.

obailala:
Individuals getting elected in US and Canada means nothing, I wasnt referring to individual achievements, and this is one area the Igbos also fail; i.e. giving too much attention to individual achievements rather than collective.

You asked for examples of bad politcal decisions, the Op already gave some examples, one of which is casting all resources and loyalty to PDP unconditionally; the unconditionality of that loyalty is where the mistake lies - a good politician always gives conditions before supporting anything. The Igbos are a major tribe and very possibly the most populous in Nigeria, but we keep acting like a minority tribe. When APC was formed and it was clear they were going to become a power house, Igbos should have infiltrated the party (instead of leaving all eggs in one PDP basket).

Igbos not infiltrating APC is what made Apc a Yoruba-Hausa-Fulani party. You might ask, "didn't some Igbos join APC?", but that's not enough; we talking collectively and not individuals. Even the individuals who joined APC were literally banished and collectively tagged names like 'Okoro-Awusa' just for daring to play politics the Nigerian way.

Another example of poor politics is what's been happening since 2015; no matter how smart or wealthy or populated you are, you can never achieve political victories by burning bridges (which is effectively the only thing Igbos have collectively done since 2015, i.e. insulting and mocking Yorubas, Hausas and Fulanis).

Political victories are achieved only through alliances and partnerships. Even with the much touted population of the north, Buhari consistently lost elections until his people chose to have an alliance with the SW. Since 2015, Tinubu and his southwestern political block have eaten lots of insult and shit from the Fulani block, but they've chosen to quietly swallow the embarrassment in hope of clinching the presidency in 2023, and you'd agree that is something that looks quite likely (through tinubu or osinbajo). In my opinion, that's what politics is all about, not insulting people consistently for 7 years and then somehow turning around expecting their support to win an election.

How popular was PDP in your yorubaland before you GIFTED the presidency in 1999 and 2003?

'Ibos can't play politics' but the Ibos getting elected by Europeans and American are from Jupiter? Is OBJ's presidency not both a personal achievement both for him and for the yorubas. Do you yoruba not brag with OBJ presidency and use it to mock Ibos?

How come yoruba were gifted presidency for not aligning with a party but Igbos should be scolded, maligned and scorned for doing same? Make us understand your nigerian politics.

Tinubuadvocate:
You can't give what you don't have boy continue fooling yourself the joke is on you.

You don't want ibo 5%er votes again?

obailala:
One thing the Op is right about is that Igbos collectively do not know how to play politics, especially the Nigerian brand of politics. That explains why the Igbo man is by default, politically disadvantaged in Nigeria. No one else can be blamed for that. Crying marginalization is not a political strategy; even if it were, it isnt an effective one especially in the Nigerian jungle terrain where everyone (and every tribe) mindless looks out only for his own. Obviously the 'marginalization cry strategy' hasn't effectively produced any results for Igbos.

Politics is about scratching backs, blackmailing, mindless scheming etc - You scratch my back, I scratch yours. Nobody wins in politics without strategic alliances and partnerships, and that is one thing Igbos have collectively failed to do for some years now.

Tell us one political decision that Igbo should have made in the past since after the war that failed to make.

Tell us who they should have voted in the past that they didn't.
We need specifics now from you sermonists on Igbo politics not the time-worn semantics of 'Igbos can't play politics' rubbish.
The same Igbos are getting elected as Senators in Europe, mayors in US, Canada etc. Give us specifics.

Tinubuadvocate:
All what you eboos have to do is to give your votes to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

That's exactly what we will do, we will give him 700 billion votes from our 5%er votes.

mrvitalis:
You Sabi politics and you want PDP obi to leave PDP and go and contest under a new party ?

No son of Nri would be this foolish

The mugu is not Ibo..

It the usual 'Ibo can never do well in our eyes' yoruba propaganda politics.

Let him go and listen to Ebenezer obey's ketekete (the man, his son and horse) song.
Obey was talking about people like him 'awon aiye' people of the world who can never see good in what others do no matter what those people do to please them.

Ndigbo have done EVERYTHING in this country to be accepted, we have begged pleaded for 40 years, we have invested in other parts of the country. Igbo sons and daughters have brought global glory to this country since then in many fields and sectors- sports, academia, literature
etc. Achebe, Adichie, Ajunwa, Kanu, Okocha, Iheanacho, Emeagwali to name a very few. Even Simon Ekpa won medals for Nigeria but now see the futility in pleasing those whose mind are hardenef with hate against the East.

The first editorial on the Igbo marginalization I read was written in 1973. My dad was still a young appentice boy when that piece was written. The world 'marginalization' has since become a synonym for Ndigbo. We have cried, till tears have dried. Yet these 'world people' can never see anything good in Igbo..

The question now is 'What do these people want from 65 million Igbo? These homilies on what Igbo should do and not do should stop, let the self-appointed lecturers on Igbo affairs talk to the bully (nigerian state) to enthrone justice and equity.

Our cries are music to their ears? While they play God? Mbanu, it cannot continue.
A typical african man would never bow to reason until you involve higher power/firepower/connect.

Everybody knows what to do for peaceful co-existence but let us continue to pretend we don't know. Do to Okeke, what you have done to Okorie, biri kam biri (live and lets live) but the feudo-monarchicals of nigeria say no.

The nonsense cannot continue, something must give. Change is constant.

These are the kind of worries that ensures a man dies before his spouse.

sapele914:
Yes UGM knows what awaits them.

Make you are present physically when the deed is done.

I learnt many of them lost brothers, sisters, uncles, fathers and relatives to buhari and buratai's python dance while yoruba muslims with blood clots in their veins cheered the killings with shout of 'use them for target practice".

Who own flutterwave?

Truthisunique2:
Yoruba media noise

In reality tinubu is begging people to step down

You dey mind the mugus. Osibande anf fayemi has already taken votes that would have gone to him. The usual loudmouth yoruba media noise.

paramakina202:
Awareness at what cost just for awareness?
For awareness sake ipobs have killed so many and many ipobs have died just to create awareness. For awareness sake ala Igbo have become a strange land for many Igbos. Biafra is an imaginary nation scammers eji eri ndi Igbo oru it is not real.

If Biafra is an imaginary country, why are you guys spending millions in military hardware trying to kill an imaginary thing?

Do you slap yourself in a bid to kill an imaginary mosquito?

planetbluz:
I Hope you aren't justifying the killings carried out by Ugm/Esn on Innocent Igbos.

I'm not justifying any killing whatsoever. Human lives are precious.

But, did you join in hailing buratai and his boys when he arrested Igbo young men and women carrying placards and made them face instant firing squads during the Operation python dance in Igboland?
