Although I don't participate in inter-tribal e-wars but your analogy is syllogically defective because of the following reasons;

1) The Emir of Ilorin is just one man out of the millions of people in Kwara State.

Just like we can't say the Fulanis are the dominant ethnic group in Nigeria because Buhari, Yar'Adua, Shagari and Murtalar Muhammad are Fulanis.

2) Ilorin is not exactly the same as Kwara State.






DrGoodman:
And the emir of Ilorin is yoruba too? grin

The day you will move on and admit Afonja lost Ilorin, the better for you.

You guys are weaned on propaganda and like to deliberately resort to peddling falsehoods in your narratives about Biafra, one major reason why Biafran collapsed and it's not likely to succeed.

God detests the use of falsehoods to achieve any means.


1) Awolowo NEVER collected Igbo money.

2) Igbos withdrew their money from banks and moved their movable properties, headed to Eastern Region.

3) On getting to the Eastern Region, Biafran Government under Ojukwu asked them to submit their money in exchange for Biafran Pounds.

4) Biafran Army looted the CBN vault in Benin and Calabar and used Nigerian money to buy arms.

5) Nigeria changed it's currency during the civil war so that Biafrans having Nigerian currency couldn't come to Nigeria to exchange it and the money became worthless.

6) After the civil war, Biafran Pounds ceased to be a Legal tender in any Country in the World and nobody was willing to accept it as a valid money.

7) Igbos with Biafran Pounds were demanding that Nigeria should give them Nigerian currency in exchange for Biafran Pounds!
This is like someone asking you to give him #500 MTN card while he pays you back with the old #500 NITEL card when NITEL no longer exist and it's card is now worthless.

cool Awolowo was never the Head of State during and after the civil.
He couldn't have singlehandedly made a post war policy, moresoever that he resigned from the Government shortly after that civil war in 1971.

HE WANTED THE OIL TO PAY FOR EVERYTHING.

Get your facts right sir.

1) A significant portion of both Chad and Niger Republics lie mainly within the Sahara Desert which is hardly habitable let alone support huge population.

Northern Nigeria lies within the Sahel with much better rainfall and fertile land than both Niger and Chad.

2) Saudi Arabia lies in the desert and because of the wealth from her crude oil sales, it has entered Stage-4 in the 'Demographic Transition'.

Polygamy is less practiced in Saudi Arabia than the North.

Polygamy predated the religion of Islam and it's not exclusive for Muslims, only that the Islamic religion is not oppose to it unlike Pentecostal Christianity/Western culture that now demonize it.






Igboid:
Niger Republic and Chad still practice polygamy and are Muslims, yet are sparsely populated.
Don't be deceived.
Many people we call Hausas in Nigeria are not, many are Chadians and Niger people they are giving free access to flood Nigeria.

Polygamy has never been a main determinant factor in population. Look at Saudi Arabia the home of Islam with polygamy, despite the rich oil economy, they are not even up to 45m people in Saudi.

If resource control is implemented SUDDENLY in 2020, it will lead to national crisis.


Only about 12 States will be able to cope (the first 5 largest oil producing States will do very well).

About 24 States will face serious economic crisis that each State will reduce it workforce to just about 1000 people.

There will be massive emigration from Most States into Delta, Rivers, Bayelsa, Ondo,Lagos and Imo States in an unprecedented rate while many citizens from Osun, Kogi, Anambra, Enugu, Kwara etc will find all means to leave the country, even if it's to Togo, Cameroon or Ghana.

Lagos, Rivers and Cross River States will demand for 'Financial resource control' of revenues from their seaports.




After about the first two years, the Governments of each non-oil producing States will start imposing heavy taxes on the few items that their States produce for the oil producing States e.g the smallest cattle from Kano, Katsina or Yobe State will be about #300,000.

Eggs and Timber from Osun State will become very expensive.

Yams from Benue States being sold in Rivers or Edo State will be like #1000 per tuber.
Ondo and Osun States will go back to Massive cocoa Farming.

Kano, Katsina, Sokoto will commence massive cultivation of Cotton, groundnuts, Onions, Tomatoes for exportation.

Corruption and crimes rates in the non-oil producing States will reduce drastically because money will be so scarce and the electorates will transfer alot of aggression onto their Governors and politicians.
90% of the Governors will not win their re-election.

Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB will become less popular and Biafra agitations will fizzle out.

Gov Wike will become more dictatorial and proud to the extent that he will suggest that fences will be erected around the boundaries of Rivers State and other oil producing States will support this suggestion and will want to try it.

If the inconveniences are well managed with maturity, after about 5-7 years, we will all get over it and the country will be better of it.

If the inconveniences are not well managed, it can lead to change in Government or even civil war/disintegration.

Seriously I used to have the beleief until I settled down to do an Indept research of everything. I repeat everything.

After Biafra comes I assure u chaos won't take time before it errupts, because our people would have found out that they have been lied to the whole time, that its not what they pictured.

I am telling u this take it from me, after Biafra comes there would be a mass expropriation of lands and it would then be redistributed.

This would lead to a lot of problems and Nigeria will make sure we are trapped inside Biafra as we face our problems since we said we wanted to leave.

The Biafran economy will be heavily dependent on the Nigerian economy, so much that at a particular time the Naira will become the currency in circulation while the Biafran currency is second.

I am telling u a full blown analysis.

The guy is correct.

I have lived with them before in the North.
Most people in the N/West are actually hybrid of Hausa and Fulani with small traces of other indigenous tribes.


In the N/west, it's only the Migrant Fulani clans that live in the 'Bush' that hasn't mixed with their host significantly.

In Adamawa, Taraba and Gombe States where the surrounding tribes are non-muslims, there is no much cultural assimilation and as such you can find pure Fulani people in these areas.

And what's the big deal in this post?


European Kingdoms fought greater and more destructive wars against each other for longer periods.

The various Greek City States waged wars against each other.

The City State of Sparta nearly anhilated the City State of Athens.



The Germanic States; Prussia, Austria and Bavaria fought brutal wars against each other until the dissolutions of the Holy Roman Empire of the German People and formation of the German Confederacy of the Rhine.
The events of the disintegration of the Austro-Hungarian Empire led to the First World war.

The various English Kings/Houses fought bitter civil war.
The Season film 'A game of thrones' was largely inspired by the rivalry between The House of Lancaster (The Lannisters) Vs The House of York (The Starks).

In the Middle East, the Banu Hashem, The Al-Rashid, The Al-Hussein and Al-Saud fought bitter wars that led the Hashemites being routed out of their ancestrial homes in Mecca to establish the royal Dynasties in Iraq, Syria and Jordan.

The ultimate victory after two hundred years of internecine warfare of the Al-Saud led to the formation of Mamluk Al-Saudiya Al-Arabiya a.k.a The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 1932.


# Summary: What happened in Yorubaland in the 18th-19th century also happen in other parts of the civilized world.

Only primitive tribal societies whose political organizations didn't evolve beyond the village level with no known great kingdoms or Empire and Standing Armies didn't pass through such stages.


post=89820496:
was there a Yoruba nation/ consciousness before 1950? Did the sub-nationalities, namely, the Ijebus, the Ijeshas, the Ekiti, the Oyo, Egbas, and Egbados among others see themselves as one people? No! As Ade Ajayi and Samuel Akintoye rightly observed, “By 1800, though the Yoruba, were one people they were not always conscious of themselves as such” (emphasis mine). There were sub-national rivalries among the peoples of western Nigerian. Beginning from the 1800 onwards, the old Oyo was under pressure from the Fulanis in the north and Dahomey hordes from the west against a much earlier rebellion by General Afonja. The threat of the Ilorin forces led to an exodus of the peoples of old Oyo mainly southwards. This led to the emergence of new settlements, namely, Ibadan, Ijaye and Abeokuta among others. Sub-national rivalries further engendered the sixteen years war (1877-1893) in which the Ibadan and Ekitiparapo, Ijebu, and Egba forces were major players which ended with British pacification of yorubaland. From 1861 British took control of the Lagos colony and subsequently the entire south west. Without British colonization, it is probable, as indicated by the shifting alliances and treaties, that the Yoruba people would have on the basis of treaty evolved into multiple nation-states as a parallel to the Westphalia Treaty of 1648 which resolved the thirty years war in Europe.

Use all these negative energy that you are using online to peddle propaganda against a whole ethnic group to improve your life.

All your efforts can NOT detract from the greatness of the Yoruba ethnic group.





1) The majority of the people (89.1%) voted to have their own State. QED


2) Was 'Voting against Yorubas' on the ballot?



3) Did the people of Abia State hate the People of Old Imo State when they demanded for their own State?

4) Does it mean the people of Enugu State were against the people of Anambra when they demanded to be given their own State.

1) The Yorubas (their number-1 object of hate)

2) Hausa-Fulani

3) Ijaws , Ikwerres and the Southern Minority tribes

4) Gen Gowon and the Middle Belt people.

5) Any Nigerian leader disscused on Nairaland e.g Awolowo, Gen Gowon, Gen Danjuma, Gen Murtalar Muhammad, Ken Saro-Wiwa, Isaac Adaka-Boro, Col Victor Banjo, Chief MKO Abiola.

6) Tinubu

7) Buhari

Seeking autonomy is part of the longing for freedom inherent in all human societies.

Both the Yorubas and non-Yorubas in the Western Region understood this fact and worked to respect it by working for amicable separation according to the laws.

Eastern Economy

Trade in palm produce was a dominant feature in the economy of Eastern Nigeria. Though not indigenous to the region, the palm tree provided fronds for roofing of houses in the villages, palm wine for drinking and palm kernels as source of foreign exchange income. After World War II, prices sought for palm produce skyrocked and by 1954, Palm produce generated an income of 54 million pounds. However, the prices stabilized by the middle of the 1950s. Employment in farming and agriculture was a significant source of income for many residents engaged in yam farming and fishery. In the 1960s, the government promoted rubber, cocoa and palm grove schemes to increase the output of cash crops. The government also established farm settlements at Ohaji, Igbariam, Boki, Ulonna, Erei, Uzo-Uwani and Egbema to encourage agriculture.
Trading of goods was also a major part of the regional economy. In 1954, imports to the region was about 25 million pounds a year which were brought into the country by a few European firms but distributed by thousands of traders within the region. The trade in imported goods such as dried fish, motor parts, textiles goes on along with the trade in local foodstuff.
In industry, the coal mines of Enugu managed by the Nigerian Coal Corporation and Nigersteel's rolling mill which used steel scraps to produce mild steel bars were one of the few coal mines and steel plants in operation in West Africa in 1963. During the NCNC led government, a cement factory was established at Nkalagu, Nigerian Breweries chose a stout factory at Aba, a Tobacco and glass making plant was located at Port Harcourt. Presidential Hotel Port Harcourt and Enugu was built.

Statutory corporations
[b]The task of managing the trade and income earned in palm oil kernels was given to the Eastern Nigeria Marketing Board and the Eastern Nigeria Finance Corporation. The Eastern Nigeria Marketing Board came into effect in 1954 and was given the responsibility to manage the region's cash or export crops. [/b]The board assigned grade to palm produce according to free fatty acid content and then assigns producer prices to each grade. The board conducts the purchase of palm oil and kernels that are to be exported through the use of licensed buying agents and engages in the evacuation of the produce to the ports for export. Most of the profits from the sales of export produce is transferred to the Eastern Nigeria Development Corporation. The development corporation was involved in producing quality palm oil kernels for the export markets through erection of pioneer oil mills and the development of other export crops such as cocoa, cashew nuts, rubber and coconut. Rice cultivation was also encouraged in Abakaliki and Ogoja

Eastern minorities had 5, while Igbos had 5. If you count Ogba people in Rivers who are currently claiming non Igbos as minorities, then minorities would have 6 commissioners, while Ndiigbo had just 4.

Notice that the commissioner for Onitsha province was an Ogba man by name Masi.

And that the one for PH was not an Igbo, Ikwerre or Okirika man.

NCNC picked then according to where they had resided and contributed to the society.
Masi might be an Ogba man, but he was an Onitsha province boy as he lived and grew there, hence why he was made the province commissioner, same with Etta Ogon who was the commissioner for PH province despite being from Ikom. He was a Ph boy.

That's how NCNC ran the East.

The Ports in Rivers State are functioning till tomorrow.


Amarabae:
Oriaku Amarachi speaks;
All these "South east is not landlocked" threads being created by some Igbo's here especially IPOBs are not necessary,
what exactly do you want to prove, who do you want to convince?
why dragging an issue over and over again year to year especially on a platform like Nairaland.
let's get emotionally matured please,
the term Landlocked refers to an area that does not have a "DIRECT" access to the ocean via a sea,
and as long as I am concerned, South East Nigeria do not have direct access to the ocean but they do have some Rivers that flows into the Atlantic ocean but those rivers do not flow in directly because they pass through the territory of a south southern state,
Some have suggested dredging and expanding the river to the ocean, yes it is possible besides I have watched a documentary about an artificial sea created to support a seaport in an Asian country but who is going to do the dredging and expansion?
such a capital project requires the full approval and support of the Federal Government , and it is glaring that the possibility of that happening is very minimal.
River port and Dry port are two things that we should be talking about instead of all these unnecessary noise about seaport,
its unfortunate that we found ourselves in a hate filled country, had it been that it is a country where Love and peace reign, all the seaports in South South geopolitical zone ought to be functioning fully, but we know why it is not so, so that a particular geo political zone close to south south will not benefit from it, so that they will continue to cluster in Lagos to import thereby swelling up their Internal Generative Revenue,
we know this game,
Dry ports in a developing country are used to connect landlocked states to the sea port via a rail network, it is this technology that can be used to connect the whole northern states that are far from the ocean to the seaport.
the same dry port in Aba and Onitsha will play a crucial role in the economic activities of these two cities.
Dear Ndigboo ,stop all these creation of "South east is not landlocked" threads,
A wise person does not waste his time trying to impress or correct his sworn enemy.
we are alone in this country,that is why I always insist on IPOB limiting their agitation to Igbo areas,
The Jews faced similar hate all over Europe back in those days just for the crime of being Jews,
same scenerio is playing out,
Being Igbo is not a crime,
we are not interested in their love,
Always use your head and not your heart on dealing with "ndi tribe uchu ndia gbara Igbo gburugburu nke kasi nke ndi ofemmanuu"
ndewo nu
Oriaku loves you all

Haven't you seen many Yoruba people calling Tinubu derogatory names?

Does political differences erode historical and ethnic heritage of a politician?


SciLab:
Their was no dirty name yorubas didn't call Oritsejafor just because he is a minority from the Niger delta, a pastor and close to GEJ.

Bling bling pastor, Theiving pastor, arms smuggling pastor, pdp pastor, TANdroid pastor, corrupt pastor are a few that I recall.

If he were a pure yoruba like osinbajo, he wouldn't have suffered the same fate. But he was a bloody minority from the SS so he was fair game for yoruba army of online BMC dogs. grin

Mistakes can happen , even in sexual intercourse. Nobody is above mistakes.





You can have sex with someone you shouldn't sleep with by mistakes due to loneliness, drunkenness, hardship, pychological/emotional exploitation and some bad temptations or seduction.

If it happens once, it can be a mistake

If it happens twice, it is a pattern

If it happens more than twice, it has become a habit.

How do you 'mistakenly' have sex with someone? Like do you trip and fall into their vagina, and then when you try to get up, you slip and fall in again?

You are very correct sir.




You can even navigate from the Atlantic Ocean to Niger Republic and Mali by passing through the River Niger.
