And this disgusting thing is a redeemed pastor?

We are waiting for you to do your worse.

With this kind of bigoted mindset, imagine what this one will do to Igbos if his husband wins (God forbid)

Very useless woman

hope4nigeria:
aaaaah. Go and check many of my post insulting calling tinubu a greedy man, check my Facebook post where I posted Obi/dati support but I hate lies, that's what we're condemning TINUBU for, but now that you people started showing your true self I'm withrawing my support from useless people/tribe thinking they can achieve success alone, without others. It's now very clear that igbos are the most foolish people on the planet. Even when you come to Yoruba land and succeed, you will still condemn your host

MrColdsweat:
Some years back in a Yoruba university, a professor almost failed a class because I refused to prostrate for him. I was the only Igbo in a class of 12 people, and I did not prostrate like the rest of my colleagues. The matter eventually ended in court but the school administration blamed me. They claim this is Yoruba institution. They ignored that I have the right to greet who I want or not. That why didn't I just prostrate for him? That I must greet like a Yoruba, in the institution. I didn't even know how to tell them that it is shameful they do no not know that an Educational institution is a centre for enlightenment and not a centre for maintaining archaic, cultural practices created by barbaric cave men.

A lot of you didn't do your homework very well before jumping into this Obi nonsense. Good that you have seen the light... Now go and delete those posts on your FB and Twitter pages.

OsunOriginal:
You guys started this with your shameless ingratitude to the Yorubas who accommodated and allowed you to live as if you were in your homeland. You're even adulterating our culture with your bad manners, bad upbringing, and rather criminal lust for money. Yet, you're still being accommodated. You didnt do half of this in Ghana, SA, and UAE before they swooped on you - unfortunately, other Nigerians also have to pay for the sins of these same people.

If we hated you, the number of Igbos in SW wouldn't have been this much. You need to look inward and begin to learn civility and allow the religion you claim to show in your actual day-to-day dealings.

Yet these same Igbos voted Obasanjo. I'm sure Obasanjo is not Yoruba but Egbira? An Igbo stepped down for Olu Falae to fly the AD flag in the same 1999, yet that is not enough. Until the Igbos go extinct before bigot like you will be satisfied. The world is watching.

zaki2:
This is democracy. You have the right to support whoever you want to. Nobody forced you to support Obi in the first place. Whether Obi win or loss, it is not the end of the world. I hope you guys will allow us hear word, as we support who we want to, not by attacking us with the usual blackmail of accommodation and free land, as has been the case.

Show me your region and I will show you a region that lives in denial, The region that is suffering from flooding and stull laugh at others suffering same, the region with bad roads, bad economy, inflation, poor standard of education and many more as still laughing at others too.

What is it that the country is suffering from that your region is immune to?
As you can see, you are the foolish one here, not everyone in Lagos is richer than those that live in Abuja, Enugu, port Harcourt or any other state in Nigeria. People live various places for various reasons. Stop measuring your elder manhood with yours it won't lead you to anywhere.
Go and Hussle and fees your family,that what really matter as time waits for no one. Your children won't eat this yeye manhood measuring

Ezeama400:
Tinubu urchings and threat... Smh

Does all this gibberish negate the fact that Tinubu didn't rule you or your papa and you should go face your uselesssss leaders in the SE instead of insulting Tinubu who didn't rule you or your papa?

LIES UPON LIES! WAIT FOR THE COUNTER VIDEO. BUT ON A GOOD NOTE, WHY ARE IGBO SHIVERING? IS LAGOS BETTER THAN HOME? THERE IS AN ADAGE "NO PLACE IS LIKE HOME" WHY ALL THE FEAR? OR MOST IGBOS HAVE FORGOTTEN THE ROAD THAT LEADS TO HOME?

Kagd10:
See insult because I asked him to go face his leaders in his region instead of insulting Tinubu who didn't rule him or his papa. You dey mad!

You achieved what you couldn't achieve in your backward and hate-ridden region in Lagos. Lagos gave you life.

HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE OF HATRED BETWEEN IGBO AND YORUBA

I had the privilege of attending some meetings of the Yoruba and Igbo Leaders. I was not a leader but a youth who knew how to wash his hands.

At one of those meetings in Owerri, I think in 1989, I think, I listened to Uncle Bola Ige and other Yoruba Leaders take the likes of Mbakwe, R. B. Okafor and others to the cleaners when the Igbo said the Yoruba were betrayers, citing that Chief Obafemi Awolowo led them into secession with a promise that if the Igbo left Nigeria, the Yoruba would follow suit.

They accused him of not following up on his promise. Trust Uncle Bola Ige! He pointed to Chief Mbakwe and said, "you were there in the meeting between Awolowo and Ojukwu as I was. Is that statement correct?".He turned to two other Igbo and two Yoruba Leaders who were at that meeting and asked the same question, saying he had transcripts of the meeting between Awolowo and Ojukwu.

They kept quiet while the Yoruba Leaders affirmed that Awolowo never promised to follow the East into secession. What he said was that if the Igbo were "driven" out of Nigeria the Yoruba would take it seriously and reassess their own position. Igbo Leaders DID NOT CONTEST this version.

Then Chief Bola Ige threw in the clincher! "Who are you to accuse the Yoruba of betrayal?" he roared, and continued:

1. At Independence Awolowo offered a joint government between the NCNC and AG, with Zik as Prime Minister and Awo as Finance Minister. Awo and Zik "were still negotiating" when it was announced that Zik would be President in a coalition with NPC of the North. The East then collaborated in destroying the West and sending Awolowo and his leutenants to jail!

2. What of the 1965 elections which the West and the East agreed to boycott? We met all night and reached agreement about 3am on the day of the election. In the morning, while the Yoruba boycotted the election, the Igbo went to vote

3. After the 1979 elections Yoruba (UPN) and Igbo (APP?) Leaders were still at the negotiating table for a coalition when to their surprise, an announcement was heard that the Igbo (APP) had agreed to a coalition with the North (NPN)

4. After the 1983 elections, 1979 repeated itself. Not giving up, Awolowo reached out to Azikiwe again for cooperation. Talks started and they met in Benin where Awo pleaded passionately that only a collaboration between The Igbo and the Yoruba could save Nigeria. They didn't reach agreement but promised to meet again. Before the next meeting, the Igbo had again teamed up with the North.

Uncle Bola paused and then continued "we can go on and on. So how dare you accuse the Yoruba of betrayal? How many Igbo have been killed in Lagos, Ibadan, Akure, Oshogbo (he mentioned other Yoruba towns)? You have your businesses in the West and went to Western schools. Yet you count the Yoruba as your enemy. You get killed in Kaduna, Kano, Bauchi, Zaria etc and have your goods looted yet you consider the Hausa/ Fulani your friends. It's your choice. If you want to be slaves for ever, we can't help you"

I had never been so scared in my life. I thought the roof was going to fall. There was a pin drop silence and no Igbo dared interrupt Uncle Bola Ige because he was telling the truth. The Yoruba Leaders ended the meeting at that point and left. I hope Chief C. O. Adebayo's memoirs will give more details of those exchanges.

Now to make three points from all this:

A. The Yoruba have been stretching their hand across the Niger for a handshake for a long time. The Igbo refused to take it for a long time until recently

B. Many Igbo Leaders of the 70s, 80s and 90s deliberately perpetrated the legend of Awolowo's role betraying them into the civil war and his role in prosecuting the war, to rally the Igbo population behind themselves. The Igbo agreed on Yoruba hatred than on any other issue. So it was the fabric that held them together for a long time

C. Time heals all things. Many Igbo reading this will be hearing for the first time that their leaders of old knew for a truth that Awolowo did not break his word to Ojukwu as alleged.

And to think of it, EVEN IF OUR PARENTS QUARRELLED, SHOULD WE THE NEW GENERATION CONTINUE THE SAME WAY?.

ITS TIME TO COME TOGETHER AND MAKE THE HANDSHAKE ACROSS THE NIGER WORK FOR THE SAKE OF OUR PEOPLES AND NIGERIA

You can't claim what does not belong to you. As an Igbo man from Imo state, I can't go to Onitsha in Anambra and start claiming ownership accept am greedy. Again end sar has nothing to do with Igbos alone rather it was a collective protest and stop tagging it as Igbos protest. Was it Igbos that chase Oba of Lagos out of his palace? It is good to think before you post that nonsense. Again show me evidence that Igbos are the people that burn Tinubu property
