This kind woman na wa o..... sadist, pain soul...yeye woman,
She should have said this to the queen's face when she was alive......nonsense

i reckon with this.
It defies the whole idea behind RIP.

She's only a fool and she'll be sacked.

The soul of the wicked should rest in Peace just to agree to ur idea of RIP?

Is she not saying her truth?
everyone may not be politically correct.

let me help put things in perspective for you...

Is your mum late yet?

How would you feel if someone she deeply offended while alive attends her burial and says these things in a very bitter manner in the presence of the bereaved/survivors?

gambojimeta:

What history is been taught in a vulgar tweet. She is just filled with hate and poison that will eventually consume her and your likes.

So this was about Biafra. Ojukwu dragged ibo people into a war that was doomed from the start. Blame the coward Ojukwu that fled to Ivory Coast after leading thousands of his kinsmen to slaughter.

Common sense is not common. Queen Elizabeth did the best she could for Nigeria by granting it it's independence. Independence meaning 'you are a sovereign nation, handle your own business henceforth'. How Igbos think she was supposed to meddle in the affairs of Nigeria, six years after she had handed over is what I don't understand. What was she supposed to have done for bleeps sake?

NaijaMutant:
We are not ignorant of the slavery, oppression and thievery of the British colonialist headed by Her Majesty.

However, we also cannot deny it open the door of civilization to us.

Being vile and hateful will not bring healing to the past. We cannot continue to live in the past [/b]

You need to revise what you have up there.

Your forefathers had a civilization. They had government. They had complex societies. They had cities. They had division of labour. They had a monetary system of exchange. And so on.

They had a civilization. It was nowhere near perfect - there was definitely a lot wrong with it but goddamn it - they had a civilization!

DropsMic:
Britain's role in the Biafran war is not hidden.. If you search for am you go see am.

May her soul - wherever it is - rest in peace

if your evidence is coming from news papers then you must be deceiving yourself, from the days of old news papers only writing information in selfish and sentimental ways will crafted lies to get you angry and believe them. They still do it till date

wiseone28:
Who is she?

Whoever she is, Uju Anya is now known by the world. Even Jeff Bezos has retweeted her post.

99.9% of commentators here are ignorant why that lady tweeted that tweet, she was a victim of the Biafra war! Her family was torn apart by that war, she has first hand knowledge of what that war did to Igbo people and who committed the whole atrocities.

crazygod:
She forgets the queen was just a ceremonial head and didn't have much political duties or influence as such. Unlike the prime minister.

^^^
This is incorrect.

There is a lot of power and influence being wielded behind the scenes by the British crown.

My brother - "IamPlato", no vex i am not attacking you by what I am about to say, but there are african philosophers that are way more advanced than plato, I will share them with you later if you want... i dont understand why africans love quoting plato and aristotle and ignore their own philosphers...

you don't need to say RIP to the wicked. Being hateful is another extreme.

To dust we all will return. To dust we all will eventually return.

oya tell me who dey are abeg...

And you want to also say that the white people are the reason we don't know them too?


Tell me who they are

Blossompowerpuf:

Don't fall for the trap that Nigerian colonies weren't civilized before the British came to colonize us. They painted us as savages and you're falling for the narrative. Didn't we build our own homes, make our own clothing, and understand herbal health care?

What about the walls of Benin which were said to rival even the great walls of China? Why didn't they colonize China?

same people messed up and destroy my ancestors empire in 1897 invasion. History will not be kind to them. AMEN

RomanGreen:


You're wrong, if Africa sunks tomorrow, they'll be missed, more than half of the worlds minerals and natural deposit are in Africa, why do we like celebrating our oppressors?

Oh because she was a queen, no one should question her atrocities and her roles in those perilous times? Such hypocrisy

I'm not a poor student of history, read what I wrote again.. I said what that professor wrote is defendable because history won't forgive what they've done to us.. But instead of dwelling in such past, let's move on and rebuild our states....

Before you start blaming this courageous Igbo woman and start calling her IPOB go and check Irish and Scottish Twitters.

Partially yes, refer to a post on page 19 of this thread that lists the education system set up by the imperial powers that teach us plato... that system is still in force today...

But partially nigerians are to blame for failing to update that colonial curriculum.

so your only take away is that she is world known now?

There's to kind of being known - fame and infamy.

Wow... I don't reply mentions but let me tell you stop attacking Igbos because of every single stuff you read online.. If you can't digest what I mean lt by my post baba move on.. No time for E - argument

Am supporting her (Uju) we r still suffering till today in d hands of Fulanis all bcoz of Elizabeth , she has killed many in Africa especially Biafra. I wonder y her soul will rest in peace. Wicked soul called herself Queen , u will pay for all your eveil deed. This really dealt with us and some stupid ones r here condemning wat Uju said. Let her rest in hell . History is a reminder [Qquote author=nlfpmod post=116484232]A statement regarding recent social media posts by Uju Anya.

Damnnn niggar
No matter what the dead should be treated with a little bit of respect and nervousness

did she and her ancestors treat you and your dead with respect? Do you know how many of your kinds are melting inside Atlantic ocean because of that empire?

Ogbodavies:
if na buhari she comment about.. by now DSS,EFCC,POLICE,ARMY,NDLEA 4 don dey on her head

na lie. People openly wish Buhari dead everyday. Some even say he's dead and buried already

[quote author=datola post=116484324]How can a person of her status who is a schorlar at Carnegie Mellon uttered such a despicable statement

IQ without Emtional Intelligence is disastrous

Dr. Uju Anya is a university professor and researcher in applied linguistics, critical sociolinguistics, and critical discourse studies primarily examining race, gender, sexual, and social class identities in new language learning through the experiences of African American students.

Nigerian again for the wrong reason!

Let me understand this . British trading your accentors was for the right reasons?

Some dark forces made it their mission to diminish the importance of history as a subject and/or a hobby.

This thread is proof that they have succeeded beyond their wildest dreams.

You do not know history. The independence was "won" not granted. Britain was FORCED to recognize the independence.... unwillingly.... and they hv still not left.... they are still here through civil service organizations....

MALIGNANTGuest:

May be because you were not directly affected.
That's the reason you may see her statement as shameful. IF she's referring to the Biafran war, then you really need to be told what happened, what transpired and how it all started.
Let me remind you, many Easterners lost their first and second sons. In fact many had their families wiped out simply because they wanted to be independent.
Most IGBO MEN you see today are probably the new first sons they can boast of now. In fact, today, the ones in their 70s and above are just survivors who survived by the whiskers.

I want you and all easterners to know since the time of the Biafria war till now is a long time enough to heal the wounds. Did Uau's statement stopped the pains the war caused the Biafriqns? The answer is an obvious no. I sincerely condemn war against the Easterners but I think her statement came a very bad time. She should have made the state all the while the late queen was alive so why wait till her death for such? It all shows lack of humanity.

I don't give a Bleep about the past, the white people are not the enemy, black people are the enemies. Your fathers allowed all the bullshit.


As a matter of fact, blacks have been keeping slaves before white people came to us... my father told me of how black kings use to use the bare backs of people as tray for hot food, drink human blood.


So fvck all the dead Nd living corrupt black men..


For once in your life stop blaming whites and see the real problem instead.

It's like black people fighting racism when there is intense tribalism and xenophobic behaviour amongst us.

Fight the root problem Nd the secondary problem goes away.

Some wil, some won't.

Even some celebrated Martin Luther King's death.

Nothing new.
