Hear this: The Hausa's had been very very peaceful Nigerian Moslems prior to Igbo conspiracy of 1966. Vengeance made them (Hausas) violent and they did not recover 49yrs after.

I just hope they (the Igbos) don't mean to start it with us again.

It's quite sad that it's already started in the west. Yorubas who are even offline are now aware of what is going on and reaction of our Oba ll tell you a lot about what is going on behind closed door.

Bigotry aside, I have always advised Igbos to try and stop this disrespectful attitude of theirs. If war breaks out today, Igbos and Yorubas ll be killed in thousands but guess what, Igbos would have no choice than to leave for the East.

The lasting solution that would be proffered by UN and World powers is separation just like Sudan, Korea and India/Pakistan. Who ll eventually miss out? Igbos of course and that is why I am advising them to desist from disrespecting their hosts everywhere in the country.

As an immigrant with British/American passport in US/UK, you can't disrespect them and expect these guys to be quiet despite their civilisation.....

ElekeNtioba:
Your twisted account of history is d reason u pple always make baseless arguments.

1. If u had any indepth knowledge abt d holocaust and anti-semitism u'll undertand wat l'm saying. I dont have the time to start teaching u abt it. Just know the holocaust had more to do with a long history of hate than world war two.

2. Igbos never taunted any anybody. Ask anyone who lived thru dat period and they will tell u dat Igbos were the only fully integrated tribe in Nigeria. That propaganda was made up by elements in the north who wanted revenge for the killing of their revered figures. They used it to whip up sentiments among northerners. This is exactly why some Igbos were bitter abt oba's threats. Such statements from pple like him can set off a conflagration nobody can douse.

3. Biafra never declared war on anybody. Rather after her declaration of independence, Nigeria attacked. The Biafran expedition to capture Lagos came at the behest of a yoruba officer, Victor Banjo. Banjo wanted to force his pple to join the secession and bring a speedy end to the war. Before then, Ojukwu never for a day considered adding yorubaland to Biafra.

Biafran was conceived to safeguard pple of the then Eastern region and not become a rabid dog of a state.

I can only u point in d right direction. Its left for you to make use of ur brain.

You are allowed to tell any lie but not this one.

Even the Ironsi government had to ban the playing of machine gun shots that the Igbos were playing in Northern markets and barracks. The igbos taunted the Northerners that their dead premier was killed like a Ram. They even made the effort to draw the attention of Northerners to the silly pictures they hung up in their shops. How suicidal can one get?

Even during the war, after the air raids by Biafra on Lagos, the Igbos in Lagos still taunted their hosts on how Ojukwu was coming to deal with them.

A nairalander once wrote that Yorubas are tolerant and accommodating. An Igbo member replied that "is that a new euphemism for cowardice?"

It would seem the North is the punishment you lot have been given by nature.

The day Igbos acquire the grace to overlook the opportunity to taunt, the Igbo tribe as we know it would have died.

lyntiffany:
the only reason some of us are up there is just cos of the seaport in Lagos, if we can dredge the seaport in Onitsha or ibaka seaport in akwaibom then Lagos would be a forgotten story. Ibos will come back and business will even be cheaper.

Can't the governments of SS/SE band together and dredge those Onitsha and Ibaka seaports so you lot can quickly relocate back to your region of milk and honey? I mean, like seriously how hard can it be for your governors to raise the money to do that? You all need to press them hard concerning that.

Like I said earlier on fool, I deleted him cos he is a Mr nobody and Ingrates to me.

However, I won't dignify your failures-stricken ass with response anymore.

I ll blame this platform - Nairaland for that "word" 'wretched" and bringing someone like you to have a chat with someone you wish to become in the future.

Perhaps, just to give u a clue, I need to mention the name of d Roman catholic school i was talking about so as to show you that my school fees for 2yrs would feed your failures-accumulating family.

I can feed you and your entire poverty stricken family for as long as God ask me to.

I can assure you that if you see me one on one................. I ll stop here cos God rebukes a man with pride.

The free health care, free primary school education, the fool was born and bred in South west............. I can now see why his life turn out like that. It's a curse to abuse the land that feeds you.

If you see the speed at which I deleted and blocked the fool

...You are too childish and full of yourself.


...you ended a friendship with an Igbo person..so what??...friends come and go dude..no big deal...The dude has most probably moved on..i suggest you do the same instead of acting like his world should come to an end.


..Move on dude.You are not that important..sorry.

My oh my , what about Kano Riot of 1945 igbos caused it too.
What about census riot in North igbos caused it.

Maitatasine Riot, Boko Haram , Ombatse group, US Invasion Afghanistan Riot, US invasion of Iraq Riot, Israel vs Hezbollah Riot, Cartoon Riot,

@ the bolded why would you blame your god for anything

When Abiola was killed did you blame him after all he was ibo, when Kudirat was killed did you blame them afterall she was Eket, Dele Giwa too yet you won't blame them.

This was how you guys were celebrating during NYSC 2011 that Igbos were killed, but when the name started coming out your people donated more victims than Igbos yet you won't blame them.

Muslims in your lands are running away from their mosques because they are considered inferior yet you blame Igbos, last week 7 were killed in Kwara yet only Ibos are being killed by Northerners, yoloba pastors in North are being suyarize but you won't blame North, Winners chapel was set ablaze in North yet don't blame the north because they kill only igbos.

Let me ask you, since 2006 Northerners in East saw the worst form of killing and lynching are they still attacking Igbos again, if the East don't reply them with violence don't you think that the recent Charlie Hebdo will trigger another attack of southerners in North.
Now your beloved Northerners are beaming their searchlight at Oshogbo, they attacked last two week there, they are busy stabbing you in Mile 2 and Ore yet you keep laughing that Igbos are killed.

Keep playing your Ostrich but Igbos in East are equal to every task, attack to any igbo anywhere in North always result in any for Northerners in East. We know our people are being in North aswell we don't deny it but we try as much as we can to show nobody has the monopoly for violence.

Keep praising them brother

Again, you decided to pick that bolded statement just like majority of Igbos instead of addressing what happened before those reactions from the Northerners.

My friend, Northerners have not seen any reason to attack the southerners in the North yet, trust me, if they do, they would attack. Go and ask Jos Indigenes to tell you about their experiences and you know that Hausas/Fulanis have no respect for life.

The former Ghanaian president had to quickly pass a law to contain their excesses in Ghana when they almost overran their indigenous business owners.

My friend, if you are betrayed by people whom you believed in, trust me, the animalistic behaviour in you would rear her ugly head.

We all love our different nations regardless what anybody says. If you want someone to respect you as an individual, pls always respect someone/people around you too.

It's clear the igbos are feeling persecuted by other Nigerians wherever they find themselves (perhaps it's about time they searched themselves and ask whether maybe they are actually the problem), which begs the question: why can't they fix up their region/land of milk and honey well enough so they won't have to live elsewhere?

If they claim and beat their chest about "developing" other lands, isn't charity meant to begin at home? If so their land ought to be the a paradise on earth where other ethnic groups and even foreign nationals would love to live at. I just don't get it.

[quote author=handsomenairala post=32633034]We met and became friends in my first year in Secondary School but prior to this meeting, we had met at extra mural classes organised by Ghananians.

We attended one of the best Roman catholic secondary schools in Ondo state and our relationship remained the same ever since we left Secondary school to different tertiary institutions.

After so many years in different directions of life, fate led us to each other on that fateful day; we met again at Barbing Salon in London; exchanged pleasantries and phone numbers. And funny enough, we both attend the same Pentecostal Church.

However, problems started last week when the issue of Oba Akiolu was being blown out of proportion. I went on my Facebook page only to see his Timeline filled up with myopic views/biased write ups about Yorubas and distorted history. I ignored it but my conscience couldn't. I therefore decided to call his attention to what Arthur Eze said about Yorubas in the presence of Goodluck Jonathan and Obi of Onitsha and the Yoruba quiet response to the repulsive and annoying utterances. I told him that as a pastor-to-be; your Timeline has always been used for Evangelism but all of sudden, it has now been turned to a platform to bash Yorubas. I told him to desist from such habit and i moved on with my life.

Unfortunately, he chose not to address or respond to my submission/grievance. He went on his Timeline and bashed me in directly. I read his indirect message on his Timeline, I wanted to talk but I thought there was no need for it and I moved on. To my surprise today, he filled up his Timeline again about how Urhobo, Itshekiri, Ijaws etc should come together against Yorubas and I got upset.

I went on his Timeline and narrated the history of Nigeria which turned out to irritate and upset him. We exchanged words and I advised him to delete me off his friends list for life.

Sad, isn't it?

But life goes on. Thank God I m deleting bigot out of my life.

[quote author=TRIBALSTOOGE post=32653804][/quote]Why would I do such stupid thing with my limited time?

I only shared it as soon as the relationship was done with, shared with Nairalanders for us to learn one to two things from it but it was later turned to tribal war in which I was actively involved in while defending my beloved country - Odua Nation.

handsomenairala:
Pls, I want you to clarify a point here before the whole thread turn to tribal war.

Why is it that Igbos always deal with Issues from what was done to them as people but not what they Igbos have done to others? Life is all about Igbos bro.

If Igbos could address this, half of Igbos problem with others is half solved my friend.

I m yet to see an Igbo man that is interested in what happened prior to Pogrom in the North.

I am yet to see an Igbo man who is interested in how Northern, western and middle belt leaders were callously killed and maimed.

I m yet to see an Igbo man to address why Aguiyi Ironsi singlehandedly destroyed our well maintained regional system of government.

I m yet to see an Igbo man to address why Igbo formed political alliance with the Northern Oligarchy twice and at the detriment of southern part of the country.

My friend, if someone has done one of these to Igbo people, what would have been your view today?

I think with what u've been spewing here that u and ur friend are both bigoted. You've stereotyped the Igbo again and again yet act self-righteous.

Now, here is an Igbo view point for u to chew on:

Few people in d army (4 Igbos and a Yoruba) plots a coup which fails, killing some prominent men from other tribes while the plan fails in the east. They fail to kill an Igbo.

In your bigoted mind it was right for the whole Igbo to be made to pay for a failed army coup?

The Igbo Head of State, Nigeria's number 1 citizen was murdered in the counter coup and that wasn't enough revenge. An entire generation of Igbo army officers is wiped out and it was still not enough. Then the final straw, over 100,000 innocent women, children and men are slaughtered in cold blood in the ensuing pogrom with the government of the day looking the other way while telling the world he could not guarantee Igbo safety. And u are saying they were murdered for the right reason? They were the aggressor?

What the original coupists did was evil but why visit d sins of coup plotters on their tribe? Do coup plotters announce in village squares about their intended coups and wait for concurrence from the people before they strike?

Why haven't Nigeria visited the entire north with a pogrom for Boko Haram and for the many religious riots and killings of years gone by? Why aren't we killing all the northerners because of Boko Haram?

Instead of Nigeria to find ways to heal that wound and pacify a wronged ppl, many were justifying it, till this day. Today, we are back to square one - a deeply wounded, traumatized and divided nation.

Remove the bigot in your own eyes before castigating your friend for his. Both of you need help. Serious help.

I only read the first paragraph of your write up and I ll try to address the point you raised in that very paragraph. I have tried my best to stay away from tribal topic/issues either online or offline as a result of my relationship with Igbos over the years while growing up. Like I said earlier, I attended Roman Catholic School called Don Bosco as a C.A.C raised child and I got admitted into this lovely school as a result of my outstanding performance at the common entrance examination. The school hardly take people from other doctrine of Christianity. Igbos in my neighbourhood were shocked when they found out that I was admitted into the school and I enjoyed every bit of my days in my beloved secondary school.

In my class, Igbos are almost 45% if not more than cos it's a Roman Catholic School. Yoruba folks like Christ Apostolic Church in the West while Igbos prefer Roman Catholic Church going by my observation. If you look at my friend list on Facebook, you ll see that 50%;are Igbos as a result of that School I attended. How do you expect me to feel when I see these kids who grew up in the West abusing the same soil that feed them and their parents?

Let's put ourselves in others shoes at all time so as to feel the pains of others. If I was raised in the East and ended up abusing this same East to your face regardless what Obi or any politician did, trust me, your body would naturally react as a bonafide Igbo.

luvmijeje:
OP I truly feel you. Mine happened during the last. Presidential election with a very close friend of mine who's from Akwa-Ibom. We argued bitterly about the result...... She said Yorubas ganged up to kicked Jonathan out of power..... That Jonathan is a good man and he's an hero......... Eeeeeh o, trust me na......I taught her HIS 101.

Fortunately, our friendship withstood it...... That's how powerful politics is......... That's is how much politics have influence over our lives.

Perhaps that your friend was right. I am a yoruba but the fact is we are very selfish. We formed alliance with the north to defeat GEJ. I just hope the northerners would replicate same when we need them.

Moheat:

But Yorubas weren't selfish when they ganged-up with the same GEJ in 2011 to defeat Buhari then and gave him the required 25% from the states in the region? And i guess the North didn't support OBJ, a Yoruba earlier. Are you making sense to yourself?

You just read my comment and replied without an iota of understanding.

Don't always rely on the history told you by those bitter-cola eating/palmwine drinking grand fathers. Make research on your own.

Were there not more Yorubas of Oyo, Kwara and Ogun descent in Kano, Kaduna & Niger prior to the 1954 riot. Did you ever ask your historians why the Igbos were the target.

IGBOs ETHNO-CENTRICISM STINKS FOREVER!
