Chief TOS Benson (NB: a 1st Republic Minister) was a very flamboyant man and lived his life much like Ned….. without the cradle snatching though. His Igbo wife, Dr Mercy died on Valentine Day in 1961. The only reason why Mr Abbati wud go back that far to look for an example is because there’s none for it today. Pushing Igbophobia narratives will neither fix our exchange rate nor reduce the price of fuel. Dem say dem say is no proof, especially when it is impossible to verify from the dead. cool

Is someone like Reuben Abati can parrot this nonsense, then some of us are justified in saying that there is nothing like an 'h-educated' Yoruba man when it comes to senseless and extreme tribalism. They are all the same. From their useless Professors like Wole Soyinka to the lowliest of MC Oluomo's motor park touts.

It took Tinubu's coming to finally realise what I had 'nationalistically' refused to believe all these years.
You don't know these guys

They hate Igbos with passion

So, unfortunate that most of our people are not aware. They thought North is their enermy

Even though the man shouldn't have involved tribes but do Igbo from different community sell lands to each other not to talk of outsiders?

Have told you to stop saying what you don't know.

Am from Onitsha

So , you mean all the buildings in Onitsha are owned by Onitsha Indigenes?

You guys like saying rubbish

Have you lived in Igbo land before?

Go to Fegge, Odoakpu, Okpoko howmany land/house are owned by Onitsha people?

Starting from headbridge, the properties are owned by non indegenes including people from other tribes

Yeah, because your people don't explore new environment and that's the reason you guys reasoning are very timid. Is not our fault

Igbos will keep exploring your region and there's nothing you can do apart from ranting online.

If you enter Igbo man property, he will stone you to death and Life goes on

Don't contradict him, he is saying the truth. Igbos do not sell land to non-Igbos.
We don't. But oando, conoil, Mrs, gtb, glo, sky bank, wapic insurance get plenty landed properties. Maybe they stole the land

Imagine going back to 1961. Ask Ruben how come yoruba companies have property in the east, he will start stammering and tell you let's go for commercial we got bills to pay

You don't have sense!

Yes, I have sold my land to someone from another community. Someone from another community is not an outsider abi

Yoruba can't even buy land in alaigbo yet Igbos are building houses and contesting in Yoruba land
In short
Igbos resources for Igbos only.
But Yoruba resources should be for Igbos too

Re: Yoruba Ex-Minister Married To Igbo Woman Told He Can't Buy Land In S'East –Abati by okoloto:
Abati is too big for carrying this type of orchestrated lies as a journalist without investigation. In my village I have a medical doctor from osun state that have large farm and hospital with many landed properties and houses.
He came for the youth service and refused to go. Has lived in my village for over 25 years and even was given a chieftancy title for his contribution to the community. No tribe welcomes travellers like the igbos. I only understand that other tribes fears competition hence staying in the comfort of their regions. Lands is also very expensive in the south east because they don't have enough like other tribes.

If you beleive this, then your IQ is below flashing credit.

So, a land seller will first ask your tribe before selling land to you?

Hate can really make someone believe every rubbish


Una talk say Igbo can sell his brother for money. Na the same una wide mouth dey talk say Igbo no dey sell land to other tribe

Chai

Why are yorubas like this? undecided
Hate is their oxygen. Let them breathe in peace na. Abi you want them to suffocate?

The part these pseudo elder statesman thinks can be hidden is that the same TOS Benson along with many other Yoruba youths went to the United States solely on scholarship from Nnamdi Azikiwe! He met that his wife over there and married her on their return. For the record, she was a medical doctor, so his in-laws were educated and exposed. Where & when did TOS Benson now give him the gist that he wasn’t given land because of his tribe?? 🤷🏽

Years ago, my friend was frustrated out of a job simply because he is yoruba. Wasn't an hidden agenda, he was told to his face grin

Nigeria will be a better country the day we all accept that we are one. Lagos used to be opened to all, but it is also changing under Oga Sanwo. Naija which way!

Not something new or perhaps this shouldn't be a news

At least 40% of the available land in South East have been acquired by their billionaires with no intentions of using it for anything but to add to family glory while some families are not even interested in selling their lands.

Only skyscraper buildings would save South East real estate in the future
It isn't a news truly.
Re: Yoruba Ex-Minister Married To Igbo Woman Told He Can't Buy Land In S'East –Abati by Ngozi123(f): 5:26pm On Nov 21, 2024
Some families in Igboland have land that they are not allowed to sell to 'outsiders' and by 'outsiders', I mean people who aren't family members. This includes other Igbos and anyone else not from their family.
Re: Yoruba Ex-Minister Married To Igbo Woman Told He Can't Buy Land In S'East –Abati by Justnation: 5:58pm On Nov 21, 2024
Abati you are lying,
Yorubas and hausas own properties in the east.
The problem of many Yoruba is that they don't travel outside their native land, and many are afraid to invest in the east out of fear due to the wickedness they did to easterners during the biafran war.
However the Igbos have moved on and spreading their investments everywhere they go
