So the war was between Igbo and Yoruba specifically right?

Where did you sniff the above crap? Ndigbo and Biafrans fought a war against northern region, western region and midwestern region of Nigeria. If the war was between Igbo and Yoruba, it would not have lasted for two weeks.

swagana:
Yoruba for once should support president of Igbo extraction in 2023.

Why should Yorubas do that at this point in time? Wake up and smell the coffee son.

By their own lawless, undisciplined, divisive, hateful and anarchist hands Igbos have made themselves a people most Nigerians do not want or trust as their President.

Why should the Yorubas support their doomed ambition when they also feel strongly about reforming Nigeria via having a Yoruba in Aso Rock as President?

Grayoso:
@OP.

You have just said a lot of rubbish and confirmed what smart, modern and 'woke' Yorubas now know about Igbos which is that you can never stop having bad belle for Yorubas even if you live your entire lives benefitting from their benevolence and hospitality.

21 years living in Yorubaland and you cannot understand that Yorubas feel they fully deserve the 2023 Presidency under APC and are not interested in compromising for anyone to include Igbos?

Where is your sense of fairness and decency that should make you appreciate that people are entitled to reap where they have sown sacrificially and judiciously?

Yorubas should step out of the way to support an Igbo APC Presidency ba? We sacrificed so much, while you Igbos behaved like hateful/divisive spoilt brats, to now hand you the APC structure you do not deserve and had previously rejected soundly, insultingly and publicly?

Lunatic, clannish and ingrate talk. I only pity Yorubas who do not get it that Igbos, like you, will always be enemies-within however nice and hospitable we are to you. After all is said and done, you are just another hateful ingrate and blackmailer like the average Igbo is.

Very well said. This part of his write up got me shaking my head: "Let me make it very clear, the Yorubas should not make themselves the enemies of the Igbos. If they do, they will be at the losing end. Space will fail me to explain this but lets leave it at that. They just shouldn't. It doesn't take anything away from them to for once support Igbo presidency in the spirit of brotherhood. The Yorubas must stop being cunny with the Igbos".
I don't understand how some of these people think.

Lol. Igbos and their mythical belief in some superhuman strength we never see proof of on the ground. Igbos the "developers" of all the finest Cities in the world, from Accra through Johannesburg to Lagos, yet all Cities of ala Igbo are a backward disgrace.

When will you people begin to understand that your egotistic and emptily vianglorious approach to life can never bear fruit in this day and age?

This is not the 50ties where people can lie or create ludicrous propaganda and get away with it easily.

You want to convince the world you are developers today? Then let all corners of Igbo land be better than Dubai, Lagos and London first before trying to say you developed those places while living in squalor at home.

We are in a visual and social media culture these days. Pictorial evidence speaks more than a trillion words

You want to form all-conquering warriors? Then only if you are not the same people, including PHD holders, all bowing to a failure from London who was lured and captured in a joke manner in Kenya by traps set by citizens of the "Zoo" Kanu and you guys mock nonstop as beneath you in intellect and ability.


Go and worry about how to bully innocent and helpless Igbos into obeying stay at home orders before you start thinking of taking on the mighty Yorubas.

We are not in age of talking emptily anymore. Today the world wants to see you talk and do. In that regards everyone appreciates that Igbos are empty noisemakers.

Ndigbo and Biafrans fought a war of attrition for almost three years against western region of Nigeria, which is mainly of Yoruba stock, northern region, midwestern region and many other countries which included British. If it does not appear to you the war would not have lasted more than a week if it was an exclusive handshake between Yoruba and Igbo, then I suggest you check the water you drink. I do not have time to digress from the Nigeria/Biafra war into unrealistic craps as you stated above.

Bro, no one can understand how they think. Something is pushing Igbos only they can confess lol.

The rest of the world just see a delusional and unbalanced people living in large number in the land of others and still bragging menacingly and divisively against their host.

Honestly Igbos are a very strange people in a bad and self-destructive way.

Abeg spare me your delusional crap. Normal people brag based on having things to brag about.

You Igbos brag on propaganda, a delusional underestimation of others and a ridiculously overblown sense of your own ability and worth never borne out by the reality on the ground.

You are ranting against the Yorubas without the humility to even recognize that you are at their mercy by virtue of how, with your own two feet and money-obsessed/unprincipled lifestyle, you guys have made Yorubaland the biggest congregation ground of Igbos in the entire universe outside the SE States of Nigeria.

You Igbos are your own worst enemies.

Ndigbo and Biafrans fought a modern war which was not a colorful story such as Kiriji wrestling match. The effects of the war still haunt Nigeria as I write this post. Anybody who refers Nigeria/Biafra war as delusional crap is a basement dingbat period. How is it a brag to state the obvious?

Are Igbos more Hateful than BOKOHARAM, Bandits and killer herdsmen sponsors and yet you teamed up with then in 2015 and 2019 and made a known slamist jihadist a president of this country and wish to reward Tinubu for taking Nigeria back to stone age in next general election. The choices are yours to make. Na all of us dey suffer for your choice in 2015 no wahala.

And SW is the only region in old western region even though we are aware that Northerners are your acclaimed enemy, though that won't stop you guys from supporting another candidate in 2023

Eish

Where did you pull out the bolded? As long as the Nigeria/Biafra war is concerned, northerners are no more enemy than the westerners and certain characters from midwestern region. Anything about Nigeria/Biafra war does not come to me as a told story.

This was the choice you made for Nigerians in 2015 through Yoruba ACN you have no moral right to judge anyone.

If those people are your enemies, we can easily say you people are also their enemy..

Fair enough?

I do not know about others. However I have not regarded myself as anything less than enemy to northerners, westerners and certain characters from midwestern region. This is one of the reasons I am a staunch proponent of disintegration of the shithole called Nigeria. I cannot hold up my spirit as a compatriot to those who wanted to killed me simply because my forbearers wanted a homeland other than the zoo called Nigeria.

The guy I quoted became judgemental hence my reference to 2015.How can he claim Igbos are Hateful folks that are not worthy to be president while they elected sponsors of terrorism, banditry and genocidist herdsmen into power in 2015 and 2019.

Naijabad:
The Yorubas and Igbos are already united. The only problem is yoruba moslems. Did you notice that yoruba moslems are pro Taliban? Go and read the statement issued yesterday by the head of MURIC, a yoruba man.

Yoruba muslims are part and parcel of Yorubaland and there is nothing any igbo can do about that.Face your potopoto region and leave Yorubas alone.Maybe Yoruba muslims need to adopt fulani style on Igbos across Yorubaland.

We dont need Nyanmirins alliance,go to your fulani masters, your leaders form alliance with all the time from independence till 2019.Come 2023 Igbos will unite with fulanis To bring another fulani presudent,who is deceiving who?

The fulanis have been killing igbos since 1940’s but they are igbos greatest ally,only slaves vote for their oppressors all the time.

Monogamy:
And have any Igbo person come out to talk about contesting the 2023 presidency?

igbos don't even support their own

Monogamy:
You people keep on shouting 2015 as if 2011 did not exist in your calendar

God will bless you ojare. The hypocrisy and double-standards of the Igboman na die. In fact let me rewind and remind them. Let's take it back to 2011 as you correctly concluded.

Back to a time Igboman believed he owned Nigeria and other Nigerians courtesy of the GEJ Presidency.

They pretend today yet the reality back then was that all they could do, as the divisive and hateful people they are, was to insist GEJ abuse power and "punish" the Yorubas. Today they are playing victims.

Are these same vengeful and hateful people the same characters Nigerians will trust with ultimate power?

Behold, below, the hateful antics of Igbos live on Nairaland at a time they thought they had 'arrived' and were in charge and would be for a long time. Internet age na bastard sha. Big disgrace Igbos are trying to form 'entitled 'and innocent victims today.

chino11:
This is a welcome development, the Yorubas should be effectively and perpetually marginalized and schemed out, because they deserve worst things also. What did they achieve for their rotten Yoruba states during wasted years of the baboon called Obasanjorijo Useless and woe tribe. They should step up the complaint, GEJ will as usual and as always mess them up. They forgot that Tinubo sold them out for a pot of 'ewodu', the same way their foolish leaders sold out abioala to the almajiris to be slaughtered.

What will be our benefit if we unite with Ibos?

What can they actually offer us either politically, educationally, Industrial wise, entertainment wise, Startup wise, or economically?

—Politically, I heard they are dots in a circle such that even Rivers state is more important than them. Their votes are tagged 5%, so what can they offer?

—Economically, we Yorubas don’t swamp their lands and they are the ones that are domiciled in our region enmasse.

—Educationally, most of the best public and private institutions are domiciled in the West with most well to do Ibos trained in the West.

—Industry wise, the industrial power house of this nation is domiciled in the West so what?

—Entertainment wise, the alpha and omega of entertainment is domiciled in the West.

— Startup wise, Lagos and Ibadan are the topmost destination of startups in Nigeria and even part of the topmost in Africa.


So OP, tell me why the Yorubas should align with the Ibos? What will be our benefit?

Monogamy:
Are Igbos and Yorubas enemies in real life?

Are the Igbo politicians and Yoruba politicians enemy to each other?

If you have lived peaceful in Yoruba land for 21 years, then which unity again should Yorubas seek from Igbos?

And btw, what would unity with Igbo change in the current political situation in the country?

Please help me ask these people?

Bro, Igbo man delusion no get part 2 lol. Look at the threat below from someone who claims to have lived in Yorubaland for 21 years and is a 'friend' to the Yorubas.

As you factually put it above, what exactly can Igbos use against Yoruba to warrant the foolish blackmail and threats they are always issuing?

Igbos do not realize that their empty chest beating no longer fools anyone. Buhari called them a dot in a circle, harsh but truthful, to state how insignificant Igbos are despite fancying themselves as important to Nigeria and Nigerians. How exactly?

They are the ones who need other Nigerians to trade, feed their children and even live outside the small "dot in a circle" SE region far too small to accommodate a people as aggressive, as expansionists and as materialistic as Igbos.

If Igbos were a humble people they will realize they need other Nigerians more than we need them. Especially the Yorubas who don't really need Igbos for anything. They really need to start humbling themselves and stop the empty blackmail and threats.

Let me make it very clear, the Yorubas should not make themselves the enemies of the Igbos. If they do, they will be at the losing end. Space will fail me to explain this but lets leave it at that. They just shouldn't. It doesn't take anything away from them to for once support Igbo presidency in the spirit of brotherhood. The Yorubas must stop being cunny with the Igbos. They must not be politically correct at all times.

Abi nao my brother.

See the guy even threatening us to support them for presidency lol.

We can never Unite with Igbos.

referendum01:
I feel really compelled to make contributions towards the very suspecious, scary and unfolding events taking place in Nigeria today under the APC government. Let me make a few point very clear before I proceed.

First, I don't belong to any political party not APC nor PDP or any other. My reason is simple, I don't believe in this crop of politicians. They are too clueless for my liking. They are mafias, rogues and complete empty heads, so I don't find them worthy of deserving my vote. This is a personal opinion and i owe nobody any apology for that.

Secondly, this contribution is not for Fulani and the buharists to feast on. They must steer clear and allow people with brains and a level of sanity to put forward their comments devoid of hate and malicious intentions.

Thirdly, for everyone that will come across this post, please read it with open mind. Put aside sentiments, be objective with your comment and see things for what they are even though I meant end up being called unity begger.

I have lived in Yoruba land now for about 21 years. I have Yorubas as friends, I equally had them as course mates back in school days. I do business with them and i look forward to more fruitful relationship with them. I admire their spirit of hospitality and humility.

But the truth I must say to the Yorubas without any iota of bias whatsoever. Honestly, my Yoruba brothers must be told a few truth given the present goings in the country. They must be reminded that the Fulanis are fully out to undermine and overrun Nigeria. I have heard many of them argue how it is not possible and how APC is the best party in Nigeria not until late.

The opportunity in question here for these killers to overrun Nigeria no doubt, has already been established by the Yoruba race. How? True the infiltration of their ranks with the religion of Islam. For the fact that a large chunk of Yorubas are sympathetic to Islam is a dangerous handshake that must be checked with all seriousness.

Secondly, I have noted with serious concern the Yoruba penchant for preferring a Northern president than an Igbo president. Take for example, there has been a loud advocacy by prominent Northerners that an Igbo president succeeds Buhari in 2023 for fairness and equity. Whether that is political or not but at least we have heard them say it. Unfortunately, I have never heard any Yoruba elite coroberate same instead the Yorubas have been at the for front of stylishly packaging Tinubu, Osinbanjo and canvassing for Fashola or Fayemi to succeed Buhari.

Let me make it very clear, the Yorubas should not make themselves the enemies of the Igbos. If they do, they will be at the losing end. Space will fail me to explain this but lets leave it at that. They just shouldn't. It doesn't take anything away from them to for once support Igbo presidency in the spirit of brotherhood. The Yorubas must stop being cunny with the Igbos. They must not be politically correct at all times.

Said that, am sure everyone can perceive the dangerous wave of things in our national life today. We need not be told that the coming days are heavily pregnant and no one knows what it will deliver. The fulanis are bent on unleasing heal in Nigeria in their quest to conquer and dominate others.

I posted a very short piece yesterday calling on the South to be prepared and I meant every call in that short piece. I have no reason to doubt the readiness of the Igbos including the Niger Deltans in the event of any emergency in Nigeria. I trust those guys with everything in me, you can take this to the bank for free.

Unfortunately, I do not think same about the Yorubas. This is the more reason why they must quickly unite with their brothers in the East now because tomorrrow may be too late. Igbos have fought war in the past at least for three solid years, they understand a little about war and so can stand any invasion for as long as it can take. They did it between 1967-70 anyone who thinks they can't do much better now is only fooling himself.

This contribution is not born out of hatred for anybody. I love my Yoruba brothers. But they must shake up, do the needful. I need them to be more reasonable. For once, forge alliance with their Eastern brothers and put aside their handshake with the North which will consume them if not checked immediately.

I am happy for the Southern governors meeting which have begun in earnest. We expect more of it and hope that there are no sabotours and cunny devils among them who spill every details of the meeting to their Fulani masters because we really need to come together and ensure that evil wicked caliphate burns to ashes.

Another way the unity between the Yoruba's and the Igbos can be strengthened is for our online warriors who are specialists in attacking one another Igbo and yoruba to stop the attacks, rather use their time online to put forward pieces that can inform, educate as well as aid the unity of the whole South.

The unity must begin now and in earn in earnest.

What easily brings friendship and mutual respect among people is for individuals to recognize each other's boundaries and stay within their boundaries. On the contrary, what brings enmity among tribes and nations is when a nation or tribe begins to eye what belongs to another person or even encroach on their boundaries. Therefore, in my opinion, there will be unity and common purpose among the southerners when each tribe or nation therein learns to stay within their geographical locations, which will douse tension and suspicion of land grabbing.
