obynzo:Of course a deeply ethnic tribalist will see others as so and read meaning to their every action. Go back and look at the members of academic staff in that your FUTO and tell us how many other ethnic groups are represented there compared with Universities in the West. Even though Reno didn't mention any tribe but even you knew who he meant. Everyone knows that you guys are clannish. The history of Nigeria from Independence bears witness to this. It's something you can't deny. See what Senator Stella Oduah did when she was made the minister of aviation. She fired others and snuck in her clansmen to most of the positions in the ministry. It was a huge uproar then. Reno is right. Give Igbo man power and watch how clannish he can be. The same way Azikiwe put his kinsman as the VC of the University of Ibadan. And so on. Don't even get me started otherwise we won't leave here. Imagine, the Catholic archdiocese of Washington DC had a Nigerian priest to cater to Nigerian Catholics and before long, the Igbos who made up majority of them were clamouring that the priest be saying the Mass strictly in Igbo since they were the majority. Go to Catholic churches in the east and you won't hear them sing the hymns in any other language except in Igbo but in Yorubaland all parishes sing hymns in every language on earth as long as they are taught. It's a shame really and I don't see it changing simply because you have refused to acknowledge the problem. |

puremaker7:You dumbass, land is sold at a cheaper rate to indigenes everywhere. If you're from my village you can buy a parcel of land at 5M but someone from the next village will buy that same land at 7M. It's not about tribe. A Yoruba man will buy the land at 7M, not because he's Yoruba but because he's not from that village. You'll get privileges because you're from that place. I'm sure it's the same wherever you're from. An indigene of Ibeju Lekki can buy a parcel of land at 10M but someone from the next community will buy it at 20M. Quit being silly by half. I don't know why you dumbasses keep saying you're accommodating. Did you give them house and lands for free? Are they not paying tax and even to the ọmọ ilẹs? You can only beat yourself for accommodating people when you do that for free without charging. Nobody is doing us any favour for settling in any part of the country. You should even show your appreciation for contributing to the revenue of the state. How can I pay you my money for a property you put out for sale then you turn around to say you've done me a favour? Ndị Ara! |

loveth360:Most Nigerians are tribalistic to varying degrees because 1) Nigeria hasn't existed together as a nation for long. 2) Nigeria is a poor country with little avaialable funds and economic opportunities such that an average citizen will need to 'know' someone in charge of dispensing the national cake before he/she can have a good share of the cake. 3) People who spend their first 18 years in cosmopolitan areas like Lagos, Abuja, Kano are less likely to attach great importance to tribal sentiments. |

TripleOh7:This may be true but misleading. Churches are not stupid, they know what they are doing. In the S/west, most churches have some members who are non-Yorubas, so it is necessary to sing church songs in their languages to make them feel at home and have sense of belonging. In the S/East where most communuties are almost homogenous, they only sing in Igbo languages. When i was serving in the North, one of my happiest moments were when i attended NCCF fellowship praise and worship services with the ways they sing in many different languages including my mother tongue. |

Onepeople:Hmmm. Yes there may have been some marginalization b4 bt after 1999 I think that hasn’t been the case, the political playing ground was opened up to fair play and ability to pull ur weight and negotiate ur place. After the war many Igbos have achieved a lot not just in business bt in government service and even in the Nigerian armed forces. They have gotten to the highest levels of their careers. The only difference is they worked harder for it unlike the North that gets it easily cos they are backward education wise. Development wise I think Igbos were left out bt many other regions were left out also so it’s hard to know if this is a major issue. Ur governors and legislators always had a responsibility to draw attention to both ur state and federal projects. Probably they did and didn’t get a good response at the federal at the time. We can’t say. |

TripleOh7:This is where God will punish you. You now want to start with lies. There is always one service in igbo several masses are in English. When I was in FUTO. We had several Yorubas as lecturers. Even in my department. In Chemical Engineering we had Dr Effiong and so many non igbos. Lagos is more cosmopolitan than anywhere in Igbo land. How many Yorubas live in the east let me ask you apart from those in federal jobs. Zik had a ceremonial post so how can he fix anybody? Kenneth Dike was appointed VC of UI by the British and expatriate lecturers. In Washington if they are clamoring that is no issue after all in UK celestial Church of christ have service in Yoruba was it now an issue |

UnabashedIPOB:I'll address the phrases you highlighted. 1. 20 Nigerian pounds not pound sterling because that's a bold face lie and very insulting to the intelligence of every Igbo family that went through that ordeal.20 Nigerian pounds. Good. In the history of wars, have you ever seen one side compensating the enemy after the war? Even if it was 1 pound, that was generous. 2. The weapon of war is starvationThat was and is a statement of fact. At the time of that war, starvation was a strategic way of forcing a quick submission and end to the war. Go and check the pictures from the war. Ojukwu and family looked very robust and healthy while his people starved. He could have stopped the war but he wanted his people to starve to death so that he could gain the sympathy of the outside world. 3. That aside, one of the reasons why Igbos have a greater population outside of Igbo land according to you is because, "Their land is badly ravaged with terrible gully erosions which seem to be eating away at the region." That reasoning is far from the truth.Read to comprehend. I mentioned more than one reason for the dispersal of Igbo people from the east. Not just erosion. You are comparing the state of New York to Alaigbo. Lol. You are hilarious. Even IF you had the capacity to erect a skyscraper in Igboland, who would be foolish to do so on a land that is gradually being washed away by serious gully erosions? 4. So, land mass has absolutely nothing to do with Igbos migrating to other parts of the country, rather it has everything to do with the economic policies of successive governments of the country instituted to destroy the economy of the southeast. Have you ever asked yourself, Why were all the seaports in the Eastern zone (Port Harcourt, Onne, Warri and Calabar) closed?Igbos have always been in alliance with the government at the center. ALWAYS. The only time you guys started playing the opposition was in 2015 when Jonathan lost and it has been bitter wailing since then. You'll need to ask yourselves why you haven't done anything for yourselves if you've always been at the center of power for most of Nigeria's democracy as well as some of its military rule. Don't blame the Yorubas or ethnicities for that please. |

BSsniffer:It's the Igbos, even they are so among themselves with their ' he no come from local government mentality' The entire Nigeria knows.But we should thank GOD that the Igbos are so insignificant as a region, as a people and as individuals that they , either peacefully or violently , can not influence anything to their own favour in this country.This is a deserved calamity to them |

[quote author=obynzo post=106665658][/quote]Lol. Germany was paid compensation for a war they started and killed millions of Jews? Hahahahaha. You are a comedian indeed. Check below please. When Germans were starving was Hitler starving? That your statement is just rubbish. Starvation as a weapon is a war crime, if roles were reversed would you say this same thing nowRead my post again. I said at the time when that statement was made, starvation was a war policy. You want to tell me that if Ojukwu had had that same advantage he wouldn't have taken it? Abegi. Same Biafran soldiers that were beheading the soldiers of the federal forces that they captured. That was the real war crime during that period. Go find out. On the other hand, captured Biafran soldiers were reintegrated into the Nigerian army. Igbos were never in alliance with the centre. All throughout military rule who were in alliance? YorubasLol. This shows you know NOTHING about the history of Nigeria. Please educate yourself. Look at the parties at the center and who the Igbos supported at the time. This here is not a history class and I'm not your history teacher. I'm sure you're smart enough to do your own personal research Oh and btw, a statement you made on your earlier post that you know the roles played by other ethnicities to make the life of the Igbo man terrible during the war. I say that's absolute bunkum. You only know what the then propaganda machine, Radio Biafra wanted you to know, most of which were lies. It was so bad that the Igbos thought the federal forces were going to kill all of them, but when Obasanjo got to the east driving the Biafran soldiers away, the easterners who were expecting to be shot were shocked when the Nigerian army started binding their wounds and feeding them. If truly Nigeria wanted to wipe out the Igbos, why didn't the soldiers do so when they got to the east? Food for thought.

obynzo:You don't know the half of it. I assure you. Azikiwe was a very corrupt human being. Go and do your proper research. I'm talking about songs in indigenous languages during Mass this one is talking about English. Lol. I'm sure the truth is choking you right now. You never thought the person you were talking to is Catholic. We know you better than than you know yourselves. |
