₦airaland Forum

The group is still operating but some guys have left.

Justice35:
the group have disappeared from Facebook too just searched for it but couldn't find it.

God bless you ma.

Seen is the problem of Nairaland and by extension ,parts of the problems of Nigeria with the ways he is allowing Tribalists, drug addicts and semi- Psychiatric patients to have free reign on his forum.



You can't compare the maturity and the intelligent debates/discussion on Reddit or Quora with the beautiful nonsense of Nairaland.

The threads on Nairaland need to be scrutinized and standardized.
There should be a checking of the experience and competence of commentators before contributing to threads.

Gandollar:
If only be seun can ban them and their IPs, it would go a long way in sanitizing this forum.

Sorry bro, that message was meant for Ahaoda Rivers.

ThatFairGuy:
You quoted wrong person

I don't hate Igbos or any tribe and I don't engage in this childish inter-tribal e-wars on this forum because I am far more educated, exposed and intelligent for such peurile talks.



If I disagree with certain misleading propaganda and out right falsehoods being peddled on this forum by members of a particular tribe doesn't mean I hate the tribe.


Please don't involve me in such matters again.

Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

AhoadaRivers:
Nice story but not the kind yorubas want to hear.

You see how they avoided the thread, if Ali and his friend had insulted the Ibos, helinues and his yoruba brothers like minorityopinion, oyatz, thatfairguy, simplyleo etc will be battling for 'first to comment' spot.

Please don't involve me in this your childish inter-tribal contests.


I am far more educated, exposed and intelligent for such peurile talks.




Thanks.

Once in a blue moon
Meanwhile, Igbo amaka

Obviously you aren't a politician but an armchair commentator.


Politicians don't just decamp to satisfy YOU but they do so to satisfy themselves.

Heavy duty Politicians always make deals that cater for their PERSONAL Interests first (which you wrongly assume is exactly the same as regional solidarity) before decamping.

Many politicians all over Nigeria have invested their time, energy and money (some even sold their houses) in the APC which they hope to reap the benefits in 2023 and you naively believe that they will abandon all these to face uncertainties in the PDP because they want to satisfy you?


That you believe that the APC will be confined to six States in the SW and the PDP will have 30 States in 30 months time shows you are mixing tribal optimism with reality.
Even Atiku, the likely PDP candidate in 2023 doesn't have this level of optimism.


If you have followed political development in Nigeria closely, you will know that an almost one-party state like what happened between 1999-2015 is not going to be feasible in Nigeria any time soon and definitely not in 2023, which is just 30 months away.

WeneWali:
If by ommision or commision, a yoruba man wins the APC ticket (which is unlikely), there will be massive shake up and many Northern leaders will decamp from APC to PDP. Making the party a glorified yoruba party. You know these things
You yorubas love to deodorize issues so that it will smell nice to your nostrils

The North will be given the ticket in PDP with solid backing from the SE and SS. As usual yoruba will fail at the polls like Awo failed against Shagari.
The North will never abandon their own and vote for a 'kaffir or arne' like you yorubas, and the SE and SS that you enjoy mocking and insulting will give you a middle finger.

Unfortunately sir, there is no queue, let alone you being appointed to man the queue.

The political parties and NOT you will determine who they give their tickets to come 2023 and beyond.

WeneWali:
We are more interested in yoruba not jumping the queue than in Igbo presidency.
It is not your turn buddy.

You must be made to take a sit until you embrace equity.

You are free to vote for whosoever you like but others too have the same right to vote for whosoever they like.

However if your decisions fail to achieve your expectations, don't call anybody 'back stabbers' or 'Betrayers'.



Thanks.

Whiteangel1234:
Yorubas disowning Obasanjo just to clinch power in 2023 .. You dont expect Igbos to Leave Yoruba candidate of PDP and Vote local Lagos based ACN Party candidate ? be serious please even currently Nigeria have plenty party but we are only discussing about PDP and APC


Yes !! Power Rotation is not in the constitution meaning even the North Have the Right To contest and continue with presidency in 2023 but if we decide that Equity Demand it rotate then fairness and justice means it must first come to either South East or South South before ever coming to South West again that is atleast another 18 years

There is no political party called 'North+ SE+SS'




Political parties account for 70% of the factors needed to win the presidential election.




If Tinubu or Osinbajo or Fashola wins APC ticket in 2023, the APC will defeat Atiku/PDP.

WeneWali:
Oga stop deceiving yourself, if per chance, ommision or commision yoruba picks the presidential ticket in APC (which is not even cast in gold). You are facing the north+SE+SS in opposition.

Get it very clear.

Let's assume that all these you said are true about the Yorubas but all these can't still lead to




Igbo Presidency.

WeneWali:
Oga forgerrit! The rest of the south will suffer terribly if yoruba grabs power again. After misruling this country for 8 years as Pres. and 8 as VP.

The yorubas have not hidden their wicked agenda for the rest of the south. It is naturally the SE turn and SS will support them. If the SE is denied the tickets and zoning disrepected, let it remain in the north, since zoning is dead and buried.

There is nothing these chest-beating yorubas like grayoso can do about it. They are conditioned to follow and not lead. We saw it during the war, we saw it when Awo lost election severally. We saw it when MKO, his wife, Dele giwa etc were all killed by the north. Kwara has been in the hands of fulanis for donkey years, what did you do? Nothing! Siddon look mugu! yorubas are all bark and no bite.

They can go to blazes when they lose, since they don't belive in equity. They have no clean hands.

Bros calm down, this is democracy.


There are many reasons why people for vote for a presidential candidate in an election or vote against a candidate.
In Nigeria, these include;

1) Tribal sentiments
2) Religious sentiments
3) Political party affiliations
4) Political opponents/Alternatives
5) Personality that can determine acceptability
6) Personal Gains (economic & political gains of the voters)
7) Experience
Others

In 2023, your reason for not voting let's say Osinbajo or Fashola will be tribal sentiments that a Yoruba candidate will prolong the chances of an Igbo becoming the president.
This is a valid reason for YOU and many people who think like that.

However, everyother person don't necessarily share this view, even in the SE/SS.
Some people will vote for Osinbajo instead of voting for Atiku because he is a Christian, some will say they want a younger president while some will say they want to vote for the ruling party etc

You don't seems to understand the politics of Presidential elections.

1) You have to win the presidential primaries of your party before getting their ticket.

2) An Igbo candidate MUST defeat other contestants before getting the presidential election.

3) Right now, there is no front line Igbo candidates in the presidential race for both APC and PDP tickets ,so how can you win if you don't contest?

#Stop blaming the Yorubas for the political woes of the Igbos for a day and ponder on this facts.

gidgiddy:
So you guys actually think that the SS and SE will watch the SW clinch what will be their 'third term' when the other two zones either had one term or not at all. How did you people think the SS or SE would support this blatant cheating?

In 2023, everyone including the North will go for the Presidency and we shall see if all the votes in SW can make them President.

You guys approach purely political issues from emotional views.


1) The emergence of the APC as a major political party in 2013 has made it difficult for PDP zoning formula to automatically work all the time.

2) No political party willingly field a candidate that will be easy to defeat.

The APC knows that fielding an Igbo candidate will make it very easy for the PDP to defeat it come 2023.
This is NOT because of the Yorubas .

3) Even if no Yoruba contest for the Presidency in 2023, an Igbo candidate will still not win the presidential election.

manuelreports:
While Not
Are ever going to go against your slave master
Hell No
But one thing I am sure, Hausas will not mind to return the power to Igbos than South West. This your by force alignment with the Hausas will not work, they don't like you and will never. Just stay close to them and see how they see you guys as potential slaves. They will even tell you that their only match in Nigeria is Igbo.
Keep aligning while they keep advancing into your territory.
Ilorin has fallen
Lagos is partly no longer Yoruba State because it is just a matter of time before either Igbos in Ojo, Amuwo Odofin or Hausas in Agege will produce the next Governor of Lagos State.

Please stop using Panadol for Yoruba's head ache.
Let them worry about their problems.

WeneWali:
Mr man, if you like shout make your vocal cord burst. The Ibos and us in the SS are not a sparing a single vote for you yorubas in 2023.

You yorubas should should start learning how invoke your dead ancestors to come vote for you on that day.

I kukuma trust north in APC, they'll do everything to hijack that ticket from yoruba, while you cry about Amotekun and UNPO. In PDP, you have almost no say.

A yoruba president is no longer feasible in the next 200 years. Yorubas are the least qualified southerners to be president. You've taken your share, you must give way for other southerners.

Some of you don't even know details of what you are commenting about.

1) MC Oluomo started as a DRIVER, then owner of several commercial buses.

2) People who work in or own buses in Public transport sector have TRADE UNIONS.

3) NURTW is one of the numerous trade unions in the Public Transportation Sector

4) The NURTW in Lagos State are part of the private sector participants who secured loans from banks to invest in BRT in Lagos State and were given their own dedicated transport routed. They employed several graduates in this transport business.

5) MC Oluomo until few months ago was just the Treasurer of the NURTW in Lagos and only became Chairman very recently.

6) Members of NURTW , like members of NUT,NUJ, NBA are free to join any political part of their choices.

7) NURTW is an affiliate of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC).

And how did he get to high school in Georgia?
The fact remains that it's the money from election violence and harassment he has used to train his children, but you see, it's not the beginning of a thing that matters but its end. You can't cost other people their peace & lives and think all is well. Nigerians as usual will praise anything and never question the origin of something as long as it's "getting results" and we wonder why the country has gone to the dogs.

See how this Bros just dey take para on top say MC Oluomo wear facemask in him office.






Bros, relax and no give yourself hypertension.

Nothing do you, Lagos State or Nigeria with this picture.

livebyday:


Who cares? I mean who actually cares?!!

If you care that this good for nothing , uneducated, dredge of society, piece of dung, thug for hire, assassin for pay ,son of a bastard wears a face mask then you are worth no more than a grain of shît in the toilet about to be flushed away into a pit.

Not the solid type of shît but the watery type that comes after you eat too much beans portage and moyin moyin with boiled eggs

This man is a worthless scum bag and a dirty , filthy, shît eroded corpse who should not be held in any form of respect if Nigeria was a sane society. Well let me not heap this on Nigeria this is purely a Lagos State thing! No other state can be so idiotic !!

Now when the drunkard Nnamdi kanu called Nigeria a jungle , a zoo and a farm we all criticized him but the fact that this rubbish thread is on front page about such a mannerless tout as this idiot , shows how far Lagos State has indeed fallen, unfortunately that bastard named Nnamdi kanu has actually been proved right

Imagine the state of New York in the United States of America using a thug like master P as a brand ambassador? That's what the idiots in Lagos are doing with rubbish like this !!

Education is clearly not wisdom

Oookay, I see.

Dew04:
Nigerian guys are the most difficult creatures to please.
With the way you all go about slut shaming women, exonerating virgins and condemning sexual expression, why should we agree to sex immediately?
If we don't pretend for a while, we get labelled. And no one wants to be stamped as a result of indulging in their desires.

It appears Buhari doesn't read whatever Prof Farooq Kperoge has been writing.

tayebest:
Farooq my man


He keep writing but Bubu never give a fcck about him!

Why did you say say so?

spiritmasquerad:
Outright seperation is not possible

Nnamdi Kanu can go ahead and conduct his referendum.


He doesn't need to await for the Zoo or Jubril Al-Sudani to give him approval.

gidgiddy:
Are you still a learner? You dont know whats going on here? Long before the so called Nzeogwu/Igbo coup, Nigerians were highly suspicious of Igbos. The Igbo man was the only one who would move to all parts of Nigeria, settle and strive to make it commercially viable.That principle of 'one Nigeria' whereby you consider anywhere in your country as 'your home' was only practiced by Igbos to a high degree. And the Igbo man was doing well wherever he went and this was going down too well. It was bad enough that the Igbo man was grabbing economic power, by his sweat and hardwork, to allow him to grab political power would not be allowed.

So when Nzeogwu conducted his coup, and it led to another Igbo man, Ironsi, becoming head of state, the powers that be could not stand it.

Nzeogwu's coup was quickly tagged an 'Igbo coup' while all other coups that followed have no ethnic tag.

Even here on NL, Nzeogwu from Okpanam in present day Delta state, will be an 'Igbo man' when it comes to the first coup. After discussions on the first coup, the same Okpanam will suddenly become Anioma, Niger Delta, South/South and non Igbo. When Nzeogwu was alive, he never heard Okpanam referred to as Niger Delta, South/South or Anioma. Today, they are all three as long as they are not Igbo "when required to be"


"One Nigeria" is a fraud and all Nnamdi Kanu is saying is that a referendum be conducted so that people can choose their destiny

You keep deluding yourselves by thinking that others are the causes of your problems.


Merits CAN NOT be killed in human societies.
Those who truly distinguished themselves will like the proverbial gold fish that can't hidden.


'See a man, dilligent in his work, he shall stand before kings and not mere men- Provide-22: 29


1) Merit hasn't been killed in Paper and Stationeries, Timber &wood products, Chicken, Turkey ,eggs and other Poultry products.
Start dominating the production and let the whole Nigeria come and be buying from you.

2) Merit hasn't been killed in the Print &Electronic media.
TVC, Channels the AIT supposed to be dominated by you and your region supposed to have the largest private Radio Stations.

3) Merits hasn't been killed in the production of cotton and cotton products, why aren't you dominating in this sub-section of the economy?
4) There's merit in Animal husbandry. You ought to be in the forefront of production and supply of beef to Nigerians.

gwafaeziokwu:
Succinctly put. This is the crux.

Nigerian killed merit because of this same reason and our nation has turned into one huge jungle.

If merit is enthroned Igbos will shine because their culture prepared them well.

The only way to keep Igbos out is to turn logic on its head with mediocrity.

That is why Biafra has to come. Africa is in dire need of us. Black race need to get her respect back.

Check the Human Development Index of Nigerian States as published by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).

horsepower102:
In summary, Being an ethnic group which is highly driven by a meritocratic culture is a big fear inducing factor in a land of mediocrity and low expectations and low self esteem people.

Once you understand this, then you realize why igbos get so much haters.

“How dare you come to our land and do better than us”!!!!

How difficult is it for you to understand this simple fact;

State (formerly called Region) creation is a CONSTITUTIONAL matter.

Awolowo was a private citizen in 1963 and no single citizen or even a political office holder had the power to create or prevent the creation of a State.


1) Two third majority votes in the Western Regional Assembly, Ibadan.

2) Two-third majority votes in the National Assembly.

These were what were required to conduct the referendum in 1963.

nku5:
Your emotional outburst and rush to deny without fact checking even though the links and text are all over this thread shows you have cognitive dissonance based on tribal loyalties.

Was Awo still not the leader of the Action Group even AFTER stepping down as premier? Keep consoling yourself the facts are out there and more are coming

In that case, the Igala, Ebira, Idoma, Tiv and Jukun of Kogi, Benue and Taraba States, Nassarwa, Plataeu and Southern Kaduna be allowed to vote in the referendum to decide if they want Biafra or not

fhranchez:
I don't know if you went to school but referendum is actually the best place tick "not interested" and make your stand known

Who has the legal authority to conduct the referendum?

The Agitations for Biafran referendum need to involve the Political leadership in the SE and the non-Igbo Nigerians to convince them for CONSTITUTIONAL ammendents that can allow for the referendum.



The United Nations can NOT just stroll into a peaceful sovereign Country and start conducting a referendum in a portion of the Country with a view of dividing the country.

If it were that easy Catalonia and Western Sahara would have long invited the UN to conduct referendums for them and get their new Countries.

fhranchez:
always answer them with REFERENDUM!!! There will be no Homogeneous Igbo nation until after REFERENDUM fullstop

The most serious problems confronting the Igbos is also confronting the Igala, Kanuris, Yoruba, Fulani and all other Nigerians- poverty, unemployment, insecurities, poor infrastructure etc.


Amaechi or Wike are neither the problems or the solutions.




Massive Industrialization in the SE will help the Igbos and Nigeria in general.


Igbo Amaka,

Nigeria Amaka!

TheGodlessGod:
but many do. Wike don't claim he's igbo but ameachi does.

That's why igbo leaders worldwide need to come together and let the people decide if they want to be part of igbo or not.

You can't be having an igbo name and denying you are igbo then you decide to commit crime .

Excuse me sir, what exactly do you mean by 'those who can't compete'?


Wake up and smell the coffee, the South-South States have left the Igbo States behind.

Mention any SE State that is more developed than Rivers and Delta States.

Check the Human Development Index (HDI) and clear your doubts.

horsepower102:
Yeah any nation that True igbos are fighting for will be the republic of Igboland. God forbid we end up in another quagmire with bitter cries of marginalization from those who just simply cannot compete.

God deliberately place the Igbos in Nigeria.

horsepower102:
Banning of history in Nigerian schools is a proof that Nigerian government has so many things that they are scared of being revealed.

Teaching history will force children to start asking older people lots of questions.

Teaching history will burst so many lies and propaganda against igbos.

It’s really sad igbos found themselves in Nigeria.

Buhari, even if he wants to doesn't have the power.

There is no single political office holder that can create Biafra.



Biafra can only be created if the majority of the political leaders accross Nigeria support it and amend the constition to create a secession clause.

Staphylococcus:
Gibberish!

Fake news.

Buhari should even give this people their Biafra. The chest beating getting too much.

Nearness isn't the only consideration when picking a residential place.

What about the amenities, conveniences and ambiance of Port-Harcourt?

PHijo:
It is only in Nigeria people will live in Obio/Akpor or PH and work in the Ogu/Onne port.

What about staying in Eleme LGA, Ogu/Bolo LGA, Okrika LGA, Oyigbo LGA or Bonny LGA?

These are the closest to the Ogu/Onne port.

The Maritime and Dock workers are NOT employees of the FG but employed by private Maritime Companies.



Wike is doing more harm than good to the economy of his State.

Later on, some misguided online e-warrior will be peddling falsehoods that the Yorubas are the reasons why ships can berth in the Ports of Rivers State.

SaintNegro77:
Since the federal government refused to give Wike his own share of the money, he's out to punish any federal government worker and frustrate the FG. The lockdown in River State is not to checkmate Covid-19. It's all about vengeance.

My first GF
