Don't mind these internet e-warriors. See as someone is claiming that "Igbo are chart-toppers and alleging that Yorubas are bitter and angry at the success of the Igbos." shocked

I have hundreds of Yoruba and Igbo friends. The plain truth is that most Yoruba people cannot be bothered about the success of any other ethnic group, as long as you do not disrespect them, or rub their faces in the mud. Many of them just want to get on with their lives. undecided

For every area boy or miscreant in lagos, there is an equivalent cadre among the Bakassi boys or miscreants at Onitsha head bridge, market or other places in the South-East. For every failed alliance among the Yoruba, there are several equal number of betrayals among the Igbo. Tell me, what caused the fight between Cosmas Maduka of Coscharis and Ifeanyi Uba of Capital Oil? Who swindled whom? sad

And for every successful Igbo person in a particular field or industry, the Yoruba folks and other ethnic groups, also have an equally successful individual from their clan, to show for it.

So why is there a need for boasting, chest beating, insults and skewed interpretation of facts?? I weak o! shocked shocked

Culture of hate?
Hate must mean something else in your brown roof enclaves.
Igbos don't slaughter their fellow Nigerians. They are scattered throughout the country in the name of one-nigeria. Abia and imo contribute its crude oil resources to a parasitic union, despite the fact that the south east gets by far the least allocation that imo state alone can generate from crude in a month.
The fulani and by extension the north have massacred thousands of innocent Nigerians in the name of religion and politics.
A simple caricature of muhammed somewhere in europe would trigger a senseless murder of innocent Nigerians in the north.
The fulani cattle herders are currently on a conquest of some sorts slaughtering all in their wake..
But of course, that is not the definition of hate according to our ''sophisticated'' yoruba people.
It is the igbo man minding his own business and looking to create his own nation that is hateful.

Ohanaeze should be focused on securing igbo interests within the Nigerian polity by creating a ''temporary'' bridge with the north however distasteful, while IPOB should lobby biafran interests outside Nigerian shores which is where most of the work needs to be done.

A lie may travel for a thousand miles, but it takes just one step of truth to catch up with it. 

It's only the weak and leeches that bash other people who in no way have got nothing to do with the mass murder, destruction of means of livelihood, oppression and injustice in the land.

laudate, here and now can you post such evidence where prominent Igbo leaders have used propaganda and hate-speeches to cause anarchy in the country?
Can you substantiate with facts and figures, in clear terms, how Igbos constitute nuisance in any community?

Can you post evidence of Radio Biafra call for unprovoked attacks or genocide on anyone, here and now?

In the 90s, the NADECO's unlicensed and inciting Radio Kudirat was hitting the airwaves, did any of your elites condemn it?

Before the 2015 general elections, did you condemn the highly inciting Radio Chanji in the North?

Ever since you were born, have you seen or heard anywhere Igbos are on rampage, killing people and destroying means of livelihoods for no just cause?

How many of your elites dare challenge the Hausa-Fulani-Kanuris or Yorubas for their unjust ways? How many of you dare counter the numerous killings and destruction of lives and properties that have been occurring for many decades in the North unabated? 

You merely turn blind eyes to the wickedness in the country because your kinsmen are rarely affected. But you're quick to point accusing fingers on the Igbos who have been far from power for 50 years.

The Hausa-Fulani-Kanuri people have over the century propagated despicable, hate speeches in their mosques and still execute the unconscionable, cold-hearted waste of human lives and reckless destruction of means of livelihoods in the North and Middle-belt. And they now have the presidency while the backstabbing Yorubas vice-presidency! Such a misnomer can only happen in the jungle! 

A number of Yorubas even go to the extent of carrying wicked lies about how Hausa-Fulani-Kanuri people have been peace-loving and accommodative; that it's the Igbos that always provoke their hosts in the North warranting the pogrom and other heinous crimes against the Igbos.
Yet in the same North and the Middle-belt the Christian minorities and other Southerners are maltreated, relegated to the background and even killed.

You say that Igbos are arrogant, and that they don't respect their hosts while you subtly proclaim that the Hausa-Fulanis are peace-loving and accommodative. You don’t like Igbos but you still fought and killed them to be in this fraudulent union with verm1ns, where parasitic ingrates are favoured by the injustice, inequity and lopsided arrangement in the polity. And your people even had the effrontery to castigate Igbos for seeking a self-determination! 

Mister, it's wrong for you to make frivolous statements because you do not like the Igbo man. Though you may be bitter and angry for the unequal exploits and audacity of the Igbos, it's absolute wicked to spread baseless propaganda! 

Many of you hold the view that Igbos should be grateful for being allowed to live in their part of the country, in the same 'One Nigeria'! You say Igbos disrespect and denigrate their host when Igbos choose to exercise their franchise right. And you don't seem to see anything wrong in Oba Akiolu's threat to drown Igbos in the Lagos lagoon if they fail to vote for his anointed candidate! The same threat was backed by many Yorubas including Dr Ariyo in the US who even called for genocide.

But here you are, pointing accusing fingers on the Igbos for daring to stand against the injustice in the land and seeking self-determination. And some of you mischievously term it 'chest beating' or 'disrespect'. And if Igbos do not stand and speak for themselves, people like you will still find a way of accusing them of not doing enough to market themselves; that nobody is going to do it for them. Igbos are wiser!


There's oil in Anambra, Abia, Enugu and Imo. The whole of Enugu and Anambra States are sitting on Gas deposits and gas has more value than oil; Coal at Enugu, Lime stone for cement in Abakaliki; rice in Ebonyi State, Abia State - highest producer of cocoa; West Africa's largest market at Onitsha, Anambra; big markets at Aba, Abia state and Nnewi, Anambra. 
Even without reliance on crude oil the Igbos have excelled and are more than ever before capable of doing more exploits and competing with the World powers!

I don't blame you for not being objective and sincere! I blame this forced union under which you and your folks hide to propagate falsehoods and had the audacity to do so.


IGBOS HATE NOBODY EXCEPT YOU ARE A SWORN ENEMY TO TRUTH, JUSTICE AND EQUITY.
At the 2015 presidential election Igbos only exercised their franchise right just like other tribes.

If Igbos are the promoters of hate in Nigeria, can anyone tell us any instance where Igbos go about causing mayhem, killing and destroying means of livelihoods for no just cause?

It's only mischievous bigots in the society that turn blind eye to the evil and injustice, and permit the atrocities to flourish in the land because they gain from the lopsided arrangement in the polity.

GENESIS OF HATRED IN NIGERIA


1* “We do not want our Southern neighbours to interfere in our development. We have never associated ourselves with the activities of these
people. We do not know them, we do not
recognize them, and we share no responsibility in their actions. We shall demand our rights when the time is ripe. If the British quit Nigeria now at this
stage, the Northern people would continue their uninterrupted conquest to the sea”. - Sir Tafawa Balewa (1947)

2* “We the people of the North will continue our stated intention to conquer the South and to dip the Koran in the Atlantic ocean after the British leave our shores.” - Sir Ahmadu Bello (1957)

3* "The new nation called Nigeria should be an estate of our great grand father, Othman Danfodio. We must ruthlessly prevent a change of power. We must use minorities in the North as willing tools and South as conquered territories and never allow them to rule over us or have control over their future
- Sir Ahmadu Bello, October 12,  1960

Ahmadu Bello, arrogantly uttered the aforementioned statement in a multicultural and multi-religious country and got away with it, and many bigots still hold him in high esteem and even shove it down the throats of other people.

4*
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WSosECbcmM

5* ...sometime in 2010, when upon the demise of President Umaru Y'Ardua, indications emerged that his erstwhile deputy, President Goodluck Jonathan, may contest the 2011 presidential election, a prominent chieftain of this same ACF, Lawal Kaita, who was a former Governor of old Kaduna S tate, threatened that the North would make Nigeria ungovernable, should Jonathan or anyone from the South win the 2011 presidential election, claiming that such would amount to denying the North it's birthright of ruling Nigeria.

6* It is in the same North barbaric statements like this were uttered in 2011: ”BABOON AND DOG WILL BE SOAKED IN BLOOD”. And what was the outcome - carnage and murder of many Southerners and Christians in the North, including many Youth Corps members when Buhari lost the 2011 presidential election?

7* That true to that threat, upon the victory of Jonathan from the 2011 presidential election, massive violence was unleashed from the North by a group which called itself Boko Haram and which repeatedly took responsibility for unending mayhem which began with the killing of Youth Corp members who worked ad-hoc for INEC in that election.

8* As the barbaric killings and destructions reigned, especially with the attack by Boko Haram on the UN Building and Force Headquarters in Abuja, the Lower Niger Congress publicly posited that the nexus between the aforementioned threat by ACF's, Lawal Kaita and the Boko Haram's bloody campaigns summarily destroyed any prospects for keeping the Nigeria Union.

9* "It was, therefore, no surprise that in October 2013, following the bold announcement by President Jonathan, presenting the sudden prospect of revisiting the master-servant constitutional arrangements of Nigeria infuriated the warmongering born-to-rule Caliphate whose cause was championed by the same ACF, and who, supported by their allies from the renegade wing of the Yoruba Southwest,  launched a vicious, frontal attack on the initiative, teaming on the floor of the Conference into a majority, and driving the Conference into its first major decision, i.e. NOT TO DISCUSS THE TERMS OF NIGERIA'S UNITY. The rest of the Conference was a jamboree that provided a luxurious platform for the North/SW Alliance, parading itself as a new political party named APC, to fine-tune their violent March to the do-or-die 2015 general elections."

10* Oba of Lagos Threat on Igbos Over 2015 Governorship

It would be a grave mistake to suspend secessionist activities for one simple reason, Nigeria does not work as a nation. It has never worked since 1960 to date. Building bridges and reaching out to other people is an exercise in futility. It will only help to enrich some political rogues out there. We should strive harder to bring about the restoration of Biafra because frankly, the people of the SS/SE have nothing to gain and everything to lose in Nigeria

This is your definition of ''hate''.
For a country where thousands of lives are lost due to religious and ethnic reasons, ''verbal antagonising of some so-called'' elders is what you prioritise as hate?
What do you mean by igbos don't address fulani on our thread? There are so many threads where extremist fulani elements are called out only to have yoruba louts soil it in their blind defence of the fulani which is probably due to the recent political outcome in aso-rock.
I can't count the number of times igbo people are branded anti-north by the yorubas on nairaland because we choose to say the truth.
Get the fucck out of my face with your moronnic argument.

A lie may travel for a thousand miles, but it takes just one step of truth to catch up with it.

The voodoo analysis above can only exist in the phantasy world of ewedu eaters. It's no longer news that Yorubas thrive mainly on an atmosphere of lies, falsehood and propaganda.

If the abysmal thinking of the op that assembled the garbage above holds any water why are the Yorubas most vocal against Biafra

Yorubas have used every known tricks to attempt to quench the call for a separate state of Biafra. Many mischievous Yorubas have taken to the internet camouflaging as South-South people and South-East people, feigning undying fake love like never before and putting forth baseless theories why the idea of Biafra should not be allowed to fly.

Recall that in the heat of their numerous nightmares frustrated Yorubas have created numerous threads on Nairaland in their desperate attempts to stop Biafra agitation. Due to the resounding responses they received on such threads Yorubas had to quickly call for such threads to be deactivated! Fact#

If at all Yoruba economy is better than the Igbo economy why are it's people worse hit by the dwindling crude oil prices

If Yoruba economy was in any way superior to Igbo economy Ekiti State will not deem it wise to send its citizens to Aba in Abia State for vocational training, to equip them to be able to create wealth for themselves and improve the economy of the State just like Eastern region.

If Yoruba economy was superior to that of Igbos why is hunger ravaging its people to the extent that concerned individuals from other parts of Nigeria had to come to their rescue, donating cash and food to ensure that they survive the economic crunch occasioned by low crude oil revenue?

And through all this period there was no cause for alarm amongst the Igbos in Igboland. Not even in Abia State where the civil servants were being owed their salaries, courtesy of the State's strong informal sector unlike Osun State where the phantom internally generated revenue (IGR) was a lie of fabricated figures
to massage the egos of Yoruba Kingdom.

T.A Orji of Abia State was labelled as the worst governor in the last dispensation by Igbos on NL and even in the outside world. Nobody criticized TA Orji and his failure in Abia than Igbos. Yet mischievous Yorubas kept lying to themselves of the sterling performance of Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State who was as bad as T.A.

Yoruba media propagandists churned out statistics of how Osun State has blossomed to being able to do without the free handouts from federal government (courtesy of the crude oil wealth from another man's backyard) and yet before could say JACK the State became comatose and bankrupt.

Of what good is the big size of Oyo State when Ebonyi State is more developed than it? For the myopic Yorubas with poor geography of a place they call their 'country' the smallest State in size in Igbo land is about 3 times the size of Lagos State.

Find below the desperate attempts in the past by mischievous Yoruba voodooists to portray Yoruba economy as good:

1. "I don't need federal allocation to pay workers" - Rauf Aregbesola (ThisDay Newspaper, Nov 28, 2011)

2. Osun's Monthly IGR Jumps from N300million to N1.6billion in 3 years. 

3. www.nairaland.com/2353607/osun-earned-n204-billion-four

4. www.nairaland.com/1439842/osun-state-gdp-higher-than

7. www.nairaland.com/1277864/osun-names-airport-after-abiola


Yorubas accuse Igbos of being too smart in business and therefore should not be trusted. The implication is that they unconsciously accept the Igbos as having superior IQ and business sense.

And when credible institutions publish the results of their studies showing Igbos as chart-toppers Yorubas begin to search for straws to hold onto to fault the research. You wonder why they become so rattled and agitated at such results.
Business is all about smartness and no dullard or book-theory person can do better in a business than a person with native intelligence. 

Mental superiority makes you want to find your own space. 
Mentally dull people hate radical changes and want to just keep doing the same thing.

There is a correlation between Igbo achievements and 21 billion dollars remittances back into Nigerian economy on yearly basis as evidenced by statistics from Western Union. A less backward or less enterprising group of treasury looters cannot achieve such feat.

The Igbo youths are born into a society where they always have to think fast else they will be like Yorubas who live on free handouts from Abuja. Igbos always try as much as possible to excel in their various pursuits in life. Little wonder you see many Igbos competing on the world-stage.

Without government connections and patronage, Wale Tinubu, Jimoh Ibrahim, Femi Otedola, Mike Adenuga etc. of Yoruba tribe will be nowhere today, and that's why every now and then you would hear them being linked with one financial crime or the other.

Nigeria economy assumed a downward trend when the Yorubas and their Northern co-travellers acquired all Nigerian companies by virtue of indigenization decree of 1972. But they could not manage the companies instead they ruined, defrauded, liquidated, bankrupted and destroyed all the companies - that was the mother of destruction of Nigerian economy! The swindlers indeed bastardized the Nigerian economy. 
And to divert attention from their ineptitude and crass looting of the treasury Yorubas would use illogical reasoning to attempt to bamboozle other people while pointing accusing fingers elsewhere!

After more than 40 years, despite the stolen wealth, the Yoruba land cannot be said to be transformed and be one of the enviest in the world. None of their cities could be likened to, say the least, Johannesburg!

Inspite of the tortuous journey the Igbo man passed/passes through to achieve success the criminal system in place and the Yoruba gang will not allow the Igbo man be. Yorubas are bitter and angry at the success of the Igbos, that they use any given opportunity at their disposal to remind Igbos that they are the ones who accommodated them and therefore they should abide by their dictates, whims and caprices, including being coerced to vote the candidate of the host's choice in election.

With all the disadvantages Igbos faced and still face after the 1967-70 they rose from grass to grace and Yorubas are not even ashamed to compare Igbos with treasury looters. 

There is no law on this earth that prohibits free movement of people and participation in government. It takes a man of courage to venture into an unknown terrain and conquer it. The Chinese are doing it. The British, Portuguese, French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese etc. did it. If the great Roman Empire hadn't ventured no one would have known they were great. Today many American businesses are located offshores in China, Saudi Arabia, Tokyo, United Arab Emirate and they are still venturing out to conquer unknown terrains.

For you to be great you have to venture out of your comfort zone. This is the true character of the ever industrious and peace-loving Great Igbo Nation. As of today it would be an understatement to aver that Igbos control 50% of the economy of Lagos and its environs. You see, it pays to venture out instead of lazing around touting and disturbing the peace of the society. 

All these stories are too much. All Yoruba's want is for you to LEAVE our land. How difficult is that?

Nigeria as we know it will never move beyond third world status or at best barely second world. Anybody with a brain knows this.
And as it is normal for any vibrant progressive people, the desire to break free and develop will remain paramount, which is why the biafran agenda is keenly pursued by ndi-igbo.
But then, the question is, [/color]At what cost?[color=#000000].
The lofty agenda of biafra has made the igbo nation lose sight of more immediate concerns in the Nigerian political sphere, and has created a vacuum of power in the south, which has given some southern opportunistic groups an undue advantage in the whole power play.
The current system where ndi-igbo have not produced a president for decades is unacceptable.
The first president and the father of an independent Nigerian nation was an igbo man. Igbo sons and daughters were prominent Nigerian politicians and power brokers in the 60s when Nigeria still had any atom of promise.
Yes, the murder of tafawa balewa set us back politically, and the civil war nailed the coffin, but we should have recuperated politically by now if our leaders knew what they were doing.
The childish angle by which ndi-igbo pursue biafra at the expense of current realities is unworthy of the igbo nation.
We need to wake up and take the bull by the the horn.!!!
Biafran actualization should be left to diasporean igbos, while igbo political leaders in Nigeria may lend a tacit support while pursuing one-Nigeria vocally and all its perks.
We need to go and re-learn the politics of shameless compromise and opportunism of the 60s.
Ohanaeze should rebuild bridges with the north, yes we may need to hold our nose, but the end justifies the means.
Nnamdi azikiwe already laid an example for us in the first republic. We need to go back and re-learn the principles he laid down for us, and apply them atleast for now till biafra becomes in-sight and inevitable.
The actualization of the rightful place of the igbo nation in Nigerian political system is the highest priority right now.

BIAFRA IS TO US EASTERNERS AS ODUDUWA IS TO Southwest AND AREWA TO NORTH.

NO GOING BACK ON BIAFRA.

This is your definition of ''hate''.
For a country where thousands of lives are lost due to religious and ethnic reasons, ''verbal antagonising of some so-called'' elders is what you prioritise as hate?
What do you mean by igbos don't address fulani on our thread? There are so many threads where extremist fulani elements are called out only to have yoruba louts soil it in their blind defence of the fulani which is probably due to the recent political outcome in aso-rock.
I can't count the number of times igbo people are branded anti-north by the yorubas on nairaland because we choose to say the truth.
Get the fucck out of my face with your moronnic argument.
Btw, what has 13% derivation got to do with the fact that it is daylight robbery?
What has Nigeria done to deserve 87%?
In what rational society should the SE get far less ?
When you don't get enough, how then do you solve these areas of needs?

Guy, get the myopic blinkers off your eyes, biko nu! You have chosen to repeat the same error by deliberating blaming the Yoruba for your woes. Yet, I told you in my previous post that there are over 150 ethnic groups in Nigeria, so stop classifying everyone as Yoruba. And out of all the points i made, it was only the one about Igbo showing disrespect to the elders of other tribes that caught your eye? Chukwu biko! shocked O di egwu!

You claim the 'yorubas carry out a blind defence of the Hausa-Fulani on so many threads where extremist fulani elements are called out', and I had to laugh when I read this statement. Haba!! Must you lie in order to get your points across??! How is this issue of 'extremist Fulani elements,' the business of the Yoruba or any other ethnic group?? In fact, why are you even reporting the Yoruba people to me?? shocked shocked Why not carry your animosity against the Hausa-Fulani to www.gamji.com, or some other northern-dominated website?? Why unleash your anger on NL? shocked

I have been on NL much longer than you have, and what I have noticed is that most of your Igbo brethren cannot make their points in a courteous manner, without lacing it with some insults, hate or venom. Secondly, they are quick to twist the facts, and misinterprete it to buttress whatever strange view they are trying to propagate. angry So what so-called truth are you referring to?? The one laced with propaganda, that your brethren persistently recycle before everyone else?

I have often wondered why the Igbo are so quick to vent their anger on the Yoruba, for failing to support them in one endeavour or the other. Please, tell the rest of us from other parts of Nigeria, when and where the Yoruba signed a blood oath with the Igbo, to provide them with blind support for ALL their activities, or to always speak out in their defence irrespective of any course of action, they decide to undertake. Can anyone please enlighten me on this?? cool Or is there something you Igbo and Yoruba folks are not telling us??

Finally, after going back and forth on any issue...they always find a way to turn round to blame the Yoruba or their forbears, for some sin or act of omission or commission, or some woe they claim was inflicted on them in the past, even if that offence was committed by a totally different party. sad undecided

Of course, by doing so they make it the business of the Yoruba, who then turn round to retaliate in kind. And those of us from other ethnic groups will either watch in amusement, or lend our voices to the debate, depending on how strongly we feel about the issue. cheesy

Finally, concerning the 13% derivation, what are your Senators and House of Reps members doing about it?? GEJ was president for how many years?? Why didn't your brothers or SE governors, lobby the federal government or enact laws to get the situation changed?? Does NL look like a microcosm of a law-making assembly to you?? Chai! shocked

laudate, the hypocrite and the first-class delusional degree holder, stop spreading your wicked propaganda against Igbos.

laudate, you have been running amok on almost every Igbo thread with your lies, falsehoods and incoherent reasoning.

Is there something you are really afraid of?

Since you lack any formidable idea on how to achieve success in life, you have been banking on stealing Igbo wealth and properties. Let me warn you and your cohorts: Your 'oju-kokoro' will only lead you to your Waterloo faster than you ever imagined.

For the umpteenth time, Igbos won't give up their freedom for gold or silver. But for our assets and wealth outside Igbo land that you and your cohorts so much crave for, you can never possess them. Sorry to disappoint you!
