What Have Igbos Done To Deserve This Level Of Mockery? by Blaze14k: 5:46pm On Dec 31, 2021
During the time of civil war that lasted for three years (1967-1970) was due to a disagreement on aburi accord meeting. In article 8 of the aburi accord general Gowon made... should i say a deliberate declaration. The really offending clauses of the decree were sections 70 and 71 of article 8 which empowered the military council to declare a state of emergency in Nigeria, if the Head of State and at least three of the Governors agreed to do so. Section 71 also empowered the Head of state in agreement with at least three Governors to legislate for any particular region whenever they deemed it fit during a state of emergency, with or without the consent of the Governor of that particular region. In effect, Gowon had taken power unto himself to deal with Ojukwu whenever he pleased, how he pleased and as long as he pleased.

Since that very time up till now everybody is scared of having an igbo president. Are we monsters that everybody is scared of us? If you dont want us to rule then allow us to conduct a referendum but you still say NO. So many times people in this forum say igbos dont have respect, we insult people alot therefore we dont deserve to produce a president from our region. Just look at how we are scattered all over the country creating major impact in economy yet for some reason we cant be trusted. What is the major insecurity up north if not the mineral resources but you call if farmers herders clash. Just yesterday the president ordered for six months progress report on solid mineral. Gold is being mined for several years up north with no accountability but when an igbo person talk about presidency everybody will on there fit to push us down.

So i am asking what have we done to deserve this level of mockery?

Lamentation Chapter 1 Vs 20-23

Lamentation that is coming from the North is drowning out the rest of the country.

Example


Did you travel during this festive period?
Please tell us the state of roads to your town! Lagos-Ibadan under construction.
Ibadan to Ikire to Gbongan to Ode-Omu manageable, but full of pot holes, you need to change lanes. Oshogbo to Ikirun no comment. Erinle to Offa, umnn. Offa to Ajase-Ipo, Oro to Omu-Aran on your own

Ile Ife to Ondo town manageable

Ondo town to ore worst

Ondo town to Akure manageable

Ikirun to Oshogbo good

Erin ile to offa not too good.
Offa to ajase (offa to eleyoka is bad, eleyoka to ajase is good)

Ajase to oro / omu aran good

Ajase to Ilorin not good

Offa to Ogbomosho via ilemona and Irra death trap

Ilorin to ogbomosho not bad still good

Igbos are suffering for trying to go against the will of God for Nigeria. Nigeria is not to be divided but to become a world power that will protect the black race.

Igbos need to be humble and stop bragging about how they are better and wiser than anyone else in Nigeria.

Then Igbos should embrace Igbos traditional cultures more just like Yoruba and Hausa and minimise their chanting of holy mary that does not help.

With the way you're pained, I'm sure that Igbos will make you cry one day. Will of God my foot. In case you don't know, Nigeria is not in God's dictionary. In fact, Nigeria does not exist. God does not know Nigeria talk less of having any stupid plan for it. So the earlier you realize that Nigeria is forever doomed, the better for you.

Oga first of all dont bring religion or drag a particular believe of any individual or society. For the records we are highly enterprising which is a fact and im not bragging about it because the evidence is all over the country of which you cant deny. When the British colonized us they where scared of igbos because they never understood our tradition. Go read about aba women riot and know your history.

Ojuku and Ironsi attacked Adaka Boro and his men because they seceded from Nigeria, but this same Ojuku felt he did nothing wrong in seceding with Igbo land and taking Rivers and Cross River along.

Ojuku could have left with the East Central State alone.

And again, nobody is stopping or holding the Igbos from leaving Nigeria.

Most of you want to leave, yet, majority of the people in Anambra voted for APGA, a party that does not believe in seccesion... What sort of joke is that?

The English politicians were not the ones to ask for referendum on behalf of the Scottish

The Spanish politicians are not the ones asking for referendum in Catalonia.

British didn't ask for Nigeria to become and independent country, it was Nigerian Politicians that fought for it

So why should a Yoruba Politicians ask for biafla on behalf of Ibos? Is so stupid for any ibo man to believe nah someone else go ask for referendum on behalf of Ibos.

I didn't send my Politician to National Assembly to ask for referendum on behalf of anybody.
