Ibos and antagonism and undue criticism

Tinubu and Obasanjo both went to prison for this democracy we enjoy, they have lifted many people of all tribe to prominence yet you don't want to celebrate them because they are Yorubas like you vilify MKO and Awolowo yet their selfless legacy is everywhere

Awolowo and Yorubas built University of Ibadan with cocoa money where aunty Chimamanda Adichie attended, even Okonjo iweala and many prominent Ibos,. In this same Ibadan they call brown roof... Yet to appreciate greatness is difficult to them

It's always easy to identify APC urchi.ns by the gargantuan lies they tell.

Lie Mohammed will forever go down as the greatest liar to ever hold the position of Minister of Information in Nigerian.

And this moh247 moniker is learning from his mentor as he lies 24/7.

Now he claims Tinubu went to prison for democracy.

Pls help me ask him which prison he went to and how long was he there?

Bloody Pathological Liar

We know he escaped prison in US for money laundering drug money by making a plea bargain but we don't know this prison that this moh claims he went to for the sake of our democracy.

Thank God APC in Aso Rock ends when the failure Buhari leaves next year.

Nigeria needs to rebuild

Oga you know you are lying. Why willfully destort facts to justify your false narrative.
1. Which prison was Tinubu sent to as a democracy defender?
2. Chimamanda did not go to UI, she went to UNN

Finally no amount of blackmail and gaslighting will stop Igbos from speaking their truth. I hope you will look back and be proud of the role you are playing now.

Okealaaye:
The Owelle of Onitsha, Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe was a natural leader just like Obafemi Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello. While the last two men are still "leading" their men from the grave, as it were, what's the place of Azikiwe today in the heart and mind of a typical Igboman, so to say? So, Chimamanda's treatise should have been appropriately headlined, The Igbo Lack Heroes! Miss Adichie, in case you're too young to know the GENUINE FACTS of Nigeria's quest for true heroes, let me take you down the memory lane as they say. Your people worked against the wish of Nigerians to enthrone democracy in 1993 by supporting the military to annul the freest and most credible election ever held in Nigeria. It was that one stroke of ill luck that engendered the present challenges. Strange, that you people are now posing as the best lovers of Nigeria! Tinubu and many other Nigerian patriots went into exile just to enthrone democracy, whilst your fathers were proudly pacing up and down the corridors of power in Aso Rock Villa with the Oppressors in support of their obnoxious decrees and proclamations against all other Nigerians. They even obtained an overnight judgement whose sole objective was to thwart the will and desires of the other Nigerians. Eventually, Nigeria was brought to its knees as a corollary. Nigeria was truly down then and your fathers were gleefully rejoicing over the "misfortunes" of their enemy the Yoruba. At each electoral cycle, your people have always been the killjoys. Do these names mean anything to you? - Walter Ofonagoro and Landslide 1983, Clement Akpamgbo, Francis Arthur Nzeribe and his Association for Better Nigeria, and the upstart Daniel Kanu and his Youths Earnestly Ask Abacha, YEAA? The Hausa-Fulani know what it takes to send any Igboman on a slavish errand. That's why they don't show any respect to you people. For many years they appointed your fathers as their mouthpieces, aka ministers of information. Your fathers ran the errands beyond their briefs each time. Imagine a people who came out of a civil war joining their antagonists immediately after the war ended in a political party! They quietly and expediently and conveniently forgot their HERO, Eze Gburugburu Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu of blessed memory (whoever fights for the liberation of his people is a hero to all fair-minded people throughout the world. Not once did he utter a word of disaffection to demean and malign Nigeria and the other Nigerians throughout! As a matter of fact I don't know what other paradigms Miss Adichie is employing to determine who a hero is!) in exile in Ivory Coast. There was no one to lift a finger to fight for his pardon, neither did they remember to plead his case. Not until immortal Alex Ekwueme, one of the finest gentlemen ever created by God Almighty, became vice president did Ojukwu receive reprieve. Imagine the siege they laid on your benighted region going to five years now; imagine what would have happened if it were in Yorubaland! Have I grated your nerves? You have to bear it, because the truth naturally hurts. In 1966, your fathers staged a coup d'etat abolishing a constitutional government in which not a single Igbo leader was killed, while they decapitated the elites of the other regions. Later, none of the coup plotters was brought to justice because Nigeria was theirs to hold. (Meaning that if Peter Obi should become president of the federal republic today - may God forbid evil -, his first assignment would be to release the felon Nnamdi Kanu, irrespective of his formerly expressed antagonisms against the fatherland!) Later still, your fathers destroyed the constitutional Federalist setup of the Nigerian state by abolishing the regions via Decree 34 of 1966, just because it suited their grabbing hearts to so do. The Igbo have to do "self-analysis" about why the rest of humanity hates them this much, instead if blaming everyone else for their self-inflicted woes. They must build their own heroes and after they so do, they must not attempt to force them on the other Nigerians camouflaged as National Heroes, just because we can see through it all! You can ask the Mods to ban me, but I have spoken my mind and that's al that I care about. Nigeria hero ko, Awka hero ni!"

They know the truth and until they admit it, they'll continue to languish in self pity!!!

You're unarguably a slowpoke tho but just read and maybe have some sense. The centre will always control every other area in any system. All of your ppl that have been ruling Nigeria from 1999 till date have only managed to run Nigeria into the ground. Give the southeast a chance. The other contestants won't do any better cos they're part of that currupt system that has ruined this nation so far. Why there's so much stupidity in this country is what i don't get.

Nigerians lack heroes - Chimamanda Adichie

Nigeria has loads of heroes, unfortunately Nigeria is locked in a death spiral of self-recrimination and hate brought about by opposition party politics and activism.

The best that can be done for the simplistic statement, is suggest that heroes should be categorised. For instance among National or collective heroes could be counted the following: Political Heroes, Sporting Heroes, Humanitarian Heroes, social heroes etc. When you've done this you begin to see that, informed by history, we are not even short on Political Heroes - politics being the category in Nigeria where most would agree Nigeria is found most wanting.
