Obaaderemi2:
You just keep contradicting yourself. Aworis are Yoruba.

(I only posted what's in print. How can I be contradicting myself??)

The king said the Aworis are Bini (see below)

But that's not even the issue. He said Lagos is NOT part of Yoruba land

Obaaderemi2:
You are also wrong. Ajayi was Oyo, not Egba at all.

He is Egba from Osogun in Oyo state. It is settled fact all over the internet. See below

I wonder how much Soludo is paying for all these PROPAGANDA he's been flooding media with

SReporters:
Seriously I will heavily ignore you.... Keep sending DMs

I was only kidding. Where will you find the time. You are too busy manufacturing PROPAGANDA for Soludo!

T9ksy:
I can tell that even you, do not believe that oxymoron you penned above. Oh so, igbos are the best in everything, ba? Unfortunately, we don't see these so-called greatness, manifested in their homesteads. It's only when an Igbo man leaves his homeland and ventures into another's, that's when he miraculously becomes the "best".

No wonder, you guys were the ones who conceived the ridiculous notion of a One united Nigeria (and passed it into law) where you can freely showcase your phantom greatness in other people's region which you can't demonstrate in the land of your ancestor's. Charity, they say, begins at home but I presume, for igbos, it's the other way round. Their charity only commence when they leave their father's .
land.

Our founding fathers painstakingly and meticulously worked towards not allowing one region to dominate another hence the title "federal" Republic of Nigeria/i]

Now you finally getting it. Using your other moniker you sounded like you'd never get it. Igbos are not inherently great. It's only in COMPARISON to certain others that they appear very hard working and ambitious. There are people more ambitious and industrious than Igbos!

[quote author=SReporters post=121555166]I won't reply you anymore.... I don't talk with people who are filled with insults.... If you have high IQ and I have low IQ, I expect you as someone more intelligent to give me an intelligent answerColorado?

I sent you a PM. I seriously honestly want to know how much SoluAtiku is paying you

Speaking from experience bro

How about colorado?

SReporters:
Propaganda? Explain how because I am not understanding

That's because you have limited IQ. Not your fault at all but it is what it is.
(About how much is he paying you for image laundering?)
*Whisper it to me*

40Bullets:
Tinubu employed more Touts in less than 9months

Even Atiku. Soludo himself was Atiku’s tout durring the election

SReporters:
It's not propaganda, it's a fact! You can verify!!

I already have. It is PROPAGANDA in capitals!

Good one OP, without the usual clickbait

And the first to be thrown out in a landslide!
All these pathetic propaganda no go save you!
APGA is finished

seborrhic:
One of the several new names that Obi has lifted to position of power and influence.
Without this woman vying under LP with obi as it's flagbearer,she would probably have scored less than 10 votes and people would be making fun of her and asking while she contested at all.
Now see how God through Obi has lifted her!

That's why it's always good to try. Show up, put your name there. You never know!

MrSegunAdewole:
my president

His excellency, Peter Gregory Obi!!!

elnegrodeafriqu:
Same applies to Rivers/Cross River axis.

Yep. All the funny foreign last names you see didn't just magically appear!

T9ksy:
Yeah, I remember how "hard-working" igbos were in the 1st republic, whereby they dominated the educational system in the old Western region with all the universities therein, VCed by them simply because another "ambitious and hard-working Igbo man" - Aja Nwachukwu emerged as the "chief laborer " (Minister) of the "Labour Camp " (of Education in Nigeria)

Even the northern region who is the most educationally-challenged among the 3 major groups still managed to get a Northerner to VC, their only university.

I repeat, one Nigeria favors igbos and their agenda to a "T". I mean, without the fake One indivisible union, how else would an Igbo man leave his region to dominate others in their ancestral land?

Ol' boy some people are just better at some things than others (generally speaking o, I know there are Yorubas and Hausas who are more Ibo than Ibos, and vice versa). Just as Davido, Burner Boy, Whizkid are all Yoruba. Are Yorubas the only tribe in Nigeria? But sometimes things turn out that way because certain people are good at certain things. No one planned it that way, neither is it due to nepotism.

It just so happens that when those in authority (regardless of tribe) want to pick a leader among their subordinates, all things being equal, they often end up picking an Ibo!

renderme:
And oba of Lagos has said he never said dt. Manipulative propagandists. One would think they even like this oba akiolu.

Why being deceptive. Why not post the article or link to it?? You are implying he denied his EXACT words as printed verbatim by the reputable Guardian newspaper, which is a lie.
Of course he never said Benin owned Lagos. You can go read what he said yourself.
Meanwhile here's the article you screenshot only the heading, but craftily neither linked nor posted!

Shut up and say what U know O. There was no time binis ever settled in Lagos island (Eko). The indigenes of Lagos island were ALWAYS aworis. The Benin monarchy had a war camp on Lagos island wt soldiers, they didn't have any indigenes there at all.
a4cube Idiko1 laiperi

Turns out you are actually wrong. See below

T9ksy:
ol' boy, me too don't understand the bolded above especially as you inferred here however the oyinbo man who owns the language, define this act as..............

" A market structure characterized by a single seller, selling a unique product in the market. In a monopoly market, the seller faces no competition, as he is the
sole seller of goods with no close substitute."

How you, in your infinite wisdom can believe this greedy act is convertible with hard-working and ambitions, beats me hollow!

Ol' boy, I hail o.
Sooo, explain to us how you "dominate everybody and monopolize everything" without being ambitious and hard-working.
Not only that, he went on to give example of an ibo in a labor camp wanting to emerge chief laborer. How do you do that without being ambitious and hard working?
Not only that, others have made same observation severally through history but limit it to "ambitious and industrious" without the vengeful "want to monopolize everything" part!

a4cube:
If this true why is Crowther his surname?

Both Idiko1 and laiperi are wrong.
All it took was ONE small Google search. He was fully a slave but not Nupe. He was Egba. See below

She'd miraculously japa. Human beings can work miracles if forced by love or circumstances to use their potential

That's human nature na. People want to identify with the winner no matter how fraudulently he won!

And do you see anywhere he said he was fooled or jazzed??

Is Bode George a returnee? What about Bode Thomas, Bank Anthony, Sapara Williams.

All originated with returnees. So also Herbert Macaulay

dalass:
'Everybody knows.....' is still a fallacious statement. So those who write understand this...

Most don't know that pms or gasoline is petrol in this country

That's the point! You use the popular term that everybody knows and uses. Otherwise it's being pretentious!
Just as you don't write "periplanater americana also called cockroach" everytime you report on cockroaches!
See example below

0monnak0da:
That is your interpretation
He said

the Ibos are the type of people who want to dominate everybody and monopolize everything

Those are his exact words

I do no not interpret them as you have
I have told you before you cannot impose your inane interpretation on me.

There was a context and mood of the nation when he said that
Maybe you should research it and stop this preening narrative

Coming here to tell me nonsense about how Ibos excel wherever they go is empty boasting which you are known for
Was I the one that started talking about Olaudah and Jaja
I don't really take you seriously because you lie like children
Was I the one talking about
ESTABLISHED HISTORICAL fact of Ibo greatness?

Bros, you must be the only one who doesn't know that "want to dominate everybody and monopolize everything" implies being ambitious and hard-working, even though Bello was saying it out of resentment. Other people, including Lugard, have said pretty much same thing but without the harsh words.
So it's not a one-off thing that relies on context. It has always been so, whatever the context!

But bros, do you really think that if things are left to play out without any sort of intervention whatsoever any tribe would have more than Ibos? Be honest

**BTW some Yorubas have Igbo origin and some are Igbo-like by nature. Just as some Igbos are neither ambitious nor hard-working at all!

dalass:
That's a fallacy and I ain't your friend

But you agree that everybody knows what petrol or gasoline (gas) is, and that nobody calls it "premium motor spirit"! So why is there a law in Nigerian press that whenever they report on petrol prices they MUST write "premium motor spirit also known as petrol"!

You are the only one who doesn't know that when slave trade ended, there were slave ships caught through the years. Slaves on those ships were re-settled in coastal big cities like Lagos. Most of the slaves now bore their masters' surnames

0monnak0da:
If you are great it will speak for itself no need for endless chestbeating
You are empty barrels with a looooooong history of lies and empty boasts
When you are truly great you are silent

You are just noisemakers

You are the only one talking about "great". Ahmadu implied Igbos tend to be ambitious and hard-working. Did he then say that makes them great?
