If Igbos actually get a country which includes the south-south, they will be 100 times worse than the Fulani. They will forment WAR on the south south to eliminate them, completely.

They will never allow those people to control those oil and gas resources.

Their desperation to own and control those resources is the ONLY reason behind their secession agitation and hatred for Nigeria.

But they will never tell you that.


Well if the so called resources of the so called South South has not helped Nigeria escape being poverty capital of the world, if it has not turned the so called South/South into 'Dubai' in Nigeria, fair to say that the resource is useless .

What you said is a known fact and that is why no South South or minority tribe will ever join in their imaginary country, as they are wasting their time. The experience the minorities had with them is what led to the agitation for a separate region from the defunct Eastern region even before independence, that eventually gave rise to the the creation of old Rivers and Cross River States.

Their parents don’t tell them the truth so some of them keep deluding themselves about their biafra that will include any minority tribe. It will only happen in the dream world.

Well spoken.

And you would think the younger Igbo generation would be smart and sharp enough to grasp what you just said there, ie the sheer unworkability of their pipe dream country, and how everybody is too sharp now to just allow themselves to fall under Igbo domination.

As if IPOB thugs would be any more responsible.

Those ones that are already fighting each other over IPOB contributions and money.

Imagine criticising an IPOB appointed central-bank governor or minister of Biafra.

Talk about signing your death warrant.

Banana republic.

Would you be able to abuse your leaders online the way we freely do in Nigeria?

Do Emma Powerful and Simon Ekpa know what 'democracy', 'tolerance', and 'freedom of expression' mean?

These characters and their thuggish successors will not disappear into the sunset if 'Biafra' materialises. They will be right there in the middle of deciding what is what and who will rule. THEY will decide EVERYTHING.

I doubt even you with your big mouth, will feel comfortable raising your kids in such a fascistic environment in which IPOB is king.

Only two ethnic groups exist on nairaland. Others hide under Yoruba ethnic group to fight Igbos while Igbo ethnic group remains a one man army. Example is MagicBishop whom I believe is from SS and Yarimo who is from the north

Nobody is hiding anywhere to fight anybody.

Lot of users consistently try to represent their ethnicities on various threads, but you Igbos and Yorubas are always so buried in your ethnic bigotry that you simply believe whoever doesn't support the Yorubas has to be Igbo and whoever doesn't support the Igbos has to be Yoruba.

Since we're tired of talking, we prefer to rather watch both tribes bask in their idiocy on a daily basis.

ABEG SHUT UP.

Without that oil money you would be walking around naked and illiterate, you and gidigiddy or whatever he calls himself.

What does your state produce?

Is it not garri?

At most palm kernels.

You are even alive because of that federal monthly allocation to your state, which helps pay for teachers, nurses, midwives, doctors, civil servants, judges etc, not to mention infrastructure,

So shut up. The oil money helped make you what you are.

Igbos are the most confused set of people on Earth.

A people suffering from double personality syndrome.

One personality hates Nigeria and wants to secede.

The other personality can't wait to FLEE Igboland and settle in the very same Nigeria it claims it hates and wants to secede from!

TOTALLY CONFUSED PEOPLE.
see the comment of person wey claim say he be Igbo.

Fyi...Igbo and Yoruba don't intermarry more than Igbos and ijaw do. Marriage between Igbo and Yoruba are still very minimal and almost non existent when it comes to Igbo men choosing women to marry. Stop whining yourself

Exactly. It actually puts a lie to the claim that Nigerians are ''divided'. We are not divided.

It is only this Igbo v Yoruba nonsense.

Always a contest involving them plus Hausa Fulani.

One of them or the other always complaining of 'marginalisation'.

Nobody ever asks an Itsekiri man if he feels 'marginalised'.

Or the Mwaghavul people of Plateau state.

Ancestors of the Oriental Asians.

Nobody ever asks them their opinion of what is going on in Nigeria.

ARE THESE PEOPLE LESSER NIGERIANS?

So you want another to speak for them? If they are marGinalised let them speak up. They Hide under others to marginalise others not knowing they are also affected and you want another to fight for them

Don't mind that idiot.

I believe that these 'forgotten' ethnic groups we have are Nigeria's hidden joker.

I look forward to a Nigeria where the talents and unique cultures of these various ethnic groups are brought to the fore, and right up there with the 'big 3' in popularity and esteem.

I'm even considering setting up a restaurant with the worlds, NO IGBO, YORUBA, OR HAUSA FOOD HERE.

If you want to eat, come in and eat. We only cook traditional, exotic food from all the other ethnic groups apart from those 3.

If that is your problem, then you don't really have a problem. Even twins are not likely to think and behave alike or share in the same dreams, not to talk of a tribe that has over 25million people.
You don't expect all that million of people to love or hate one Nigeria. There will always be those against or for it. None of them is irrational. No sane person will say that Nigeria is doing fine even if they want to stay positive that one day she will get it right. But you don't expect everyone to be patient. Destinies are being delayed or destroyed here, even though some others are making gains.
So using those who speak against one Nigeria as a yardstick to hate on all Igbos is a myopic one. Their agitations are legitimate with good conscience. Besides, you have Joe Igbokwe, Ijelespeak and a host of other one Nigerian lovers who are Igbos. So,that should count for something.

Yorubas are the separatists. They want you to leave their lands where you settled in your millions.

You are the real UNITY BEGGARS, because there are even more of you in the north than the entire Igboland and SW combined.

Your actions (settling all over Nigeria in your tens of millions) speak louder than your words ('we hate Nigeria and want to secede')

I'm even surprised you haven't started dragging land ownership with Hausa people on their soil, Mr internet secessionist.

You are a really big "gboun" "obori".
I am an Ijaw from Bayelsa, so asides our so called political and militancy leaders who use Igbo hate as a currency to buy peanut favors from the Nigeria slave masters, the average ijaw man has no issues with the igbos. The ijaw man freely goes to Aba, Onitsha markets and co and do their buying and selling without any issues. The igbos work and trade in our lands without any issues. We inter-marry without any issue.
What is apparent to me as the issue between the Yorubas and the igbos is as a result of the fact that the Yorubas do not have an homogeneous Christian population as do the Igbo which would have produced similar outlook to life. The large Muslim population of the Yorubas have a similar dreams of the north–dominion.
This constant bickering would have been non existent if the igbos had a large Muslim population.
Mr man.

Yorubas are Yorubas.

Na you people dey carry religion gene for blood.

Yorubas are liberals,they are into everything and they are not rigid on anything from religion to food to entertainment to education to sport.even to politics,till today PDP is as strong as APC in southwest
.and Islam is as strong as Christianity.
The only thing that unite us is being YORUBA.

Stop projecting your own failings onto others. I'm Yoruba but know full well the distinction between Efiks, Edos, Itsekiris, Ikwerres, Urhobos, Ijaws and many other SS groups who aren't your kinsmen. It's your own people who have repeatedly betrayed their own bigotry and ignorance by treating "the north" as a homogenous body of "head-slammers" and calling Buhari a member of some mythical "Hausa" oligarchy, even though he has not a drop of Hausa blood and no true Hausa man has ever ruled Nigeria. You (falsely) claim to be the most travelled of all tribes, yet few of you seem to understand the distinctions between Angas, Tiv, Birom, Kanuri, Nupes, Idomas and many others you routinely treat as an "ignorant", faceless "muslim" horde, in yet another act of projection.
