A Yoruba man born in Kano, those that change him to Hausa man.
Not All Igbos are Biafrans.

Answer his question and stop beating about the bush.

You Yorubas said that Delta and River state ain't IGBO.
But now you agree that kachikwu and Amaechi are IGBOS .

That's one of the reasons I hate you Yorubas and your master (hausa / fulanis)

You were campaigning for GEJ to preside till 2019 with the same people you are now claiming you don't want to be yoked with. You lost out and want out, simple.

You can only deceive yourself Mr.


Yea, GEJ was president in 1967, he was also president when MASSOB was founded.

Of a truth, Primary school pupils have invaded Nairaland.

After the Huasa/Fulani almajiris, the most easily brainwashed is the Igbos.
Most of them against Buhari today cannot even articulate their reason except that because other igbos hate him.

Op must be a real idi.ot if the entire media chat can be summarized into his sensational title thread of " what do Igbos want ".

It is both silly, malicious, and goes to the core of who is a Nigerian, who is Yoruba, who is Hausa ,who is Igbo ?, etc.
It wasn't too long ago that Yoruba elders met and declared that they were being marginalized in GEJ government.
Before that , the northern elites had similar cries, and before that, the Niger Delta militants held the nation hostage for many years until they were splashed with national cake cash and contracts. grin

In fact, if my memory is right, few short years ago, this very same Buhari stated publicly that the government of GEJ should LISTEN to the GRIEVANCES of the murderous terrorists group Boko Haram.

Yes.
It's amazing how short our memories can be( selective amnesia) when it has to do with the "other " people, the Igbos.

The Igbos are not expected to have a voice, not expected to express anger or frustrations.
No indeed, that would be a violation of the conditions of our national forced marriage.
Right ? undecided

Ironically, this answers your very silly question.
A voice, an equal, unencumbered voice.

I don't know hve never met a Nigerian Igbo that wants special preferencial treatment in national political or economic affairs.

Every Igbo wants what every Nigerian , every human wants. Nothing more and nothing less.

The fraudulently contrived federal structure robs every Nigerian, including Igbos, of their full potential as human beings.
It is a slave structure.
It robs every Nigerian, except for very few parasites in the system.
It doesn't and hasn't worked.
It needs to be rearranged.

That is what most Igbos want.

I will respond with time

Buhari should tell the world who are the 5% he referred to

Buhari should explain to the world why his appointment was skewed in favor of the North to the disadvantage of the Igbos

Buhari how far about 2nd Niger bridge

Buhari should tell the world why he instigated the DSS to disobey court order

Mr hidden shadow, yesterday i was watching this chat on Wazobia TV and people like you and me were sending tweets and questions which the president answered accordingly, i know a lot of our youths don't want TV and when you guys do, it's movies, music videos and the fun once so i don't get when the man is on about, where you not listening or watching like most people were and stop saying things you can't back up, baseless accusations, what do you mean by he instigated DSS to disobey the courts, if put on a TV show or in a court room can you defend what you spewed out here?

That's a large inclusive inference on your part. But then, even if Delta north are Igbos, it still doesn't make them endorse the Biafran course. Biafra isn't a byword for Igbo or igbo-speaking.

Can you give me answer to this
Who raised the 5% 95%
issued, Out of 30 appointment
that he did was 24 not From
the north, 7 from other regions
and non from South East. If it
is about Ministerial position
had Buhari had his way non
would have come from the
East, but based that the
Constitution stated that each
state must provide a minister,
what happened to the Con Fab
reports, that would have
addressed the problems
facing the country have he not
discarded it. You guys

Shows how VERY ignorant and miseducated you are.

One thing that Igbos are very well known for is the lack of follow follow mentality.

I guess you skipped Nigerian history class in primarily and secondary schools.

OfoIgbo:


Kachikwu and Emefiele are Anioma-Igbo and from Delta.
Chibuike Amaechi is Ikwerre-Igbo from Rivers state.
Buhari seems to be marginalising those that are Igbo and from Anambra, Imo, Ebonyi, Enugu and Abia

Buhari is from Katsina state, and he brought in a number of Katsina people e.g DSS, INEC for a while and possibly others. So we basically have at least three major positions for Katsina.

I will like to know the major positions Buhari assigned to each of the SE states since he came in as president.

Buhari introduced Boko Haram into the SE.
Buhari stopped the second Niger bridge
kachikwu and emefiele are ikas not anioma...ikas and ikwerre traced their root to bini kingdom.. They hate being called ibos

EMMAUGOH:
When they talk about igbos, they should stop referring Deltas as igbos.. Cos obviously they deny the fact they are igbos because of the geographic location which shows how they are separated with river Niger. They share same name and language but they are not the typical igbo man u see from the sout east.. They should b referred to likes of Edo,Benue and the rest... They are definitely not igbos..
. Something is wrong with your head, so u want to render dm tribless just becuz u want to insolate d igbos? u need spare brain

Now, here are a few;

-Why should someone from Anambra have to score 70% in the common entrance examination to gain admission when someone from Yobe state need only to score 1%?

-Name one Federal Govt owned industry in the South East

-Name 2 Federal Roads 8in the South East that are motorable

-Why has work stopped on the Enugu international airport?

These questions need to be answered by the past 16years government and not present government of PMB

Nigerians, always quick to judge and throw stones, tell them to come forward and proffer solutions and help out, they run away, it's so easy to throw stones at people in power, i watched this live chat on Wazobia TV yesterday and i am impressed to a great extent about how the president answered most of the questions and how he put the reporters down whenever they asked a baseless question and when he didn't have full information on a question, his always honest in how he says i'll do my findings to verify what you have just said and so on and so forth, he explained the issues on the refinery, he touched on the Naira dollar cards ban and he said it isn't temporarily and isn't going to get lifted anytime soon.

I think for the first time in 16 years Nigeria now has a President with the heart of protecting the integrity of our precious contry.
The igbos on the other hand should learn from a state like Lagos have grown developmentally despite a nothing to write home about allocation from Federal government. The igbos should not blame the shortsightedness of their leaders that have lafishly benefited from the wealth of the Federal govenment for the past 16 years on other zones in Nigeria that have struggled to record tremendious developemental archievement despite being treated so badly by the Federal government for the past 16 years. I think Igbos should learn from south sudan. #onenigerianyouthcampaghn#. Happy new year in advance

Igbo man is an Igbo man.

Your type wants to balkanize and weaken Igbos and turn brother against brother.

Igbos are united in history, language, culture, attitude, looks etc.

Igbos are hardworking, republican in nature and believe in individual self.

Igbo man in Aba is same as Igbo man in PH and is same as Igbo man in Enugu Ezike by Kogi border.

Igbo man in Asaba is same as Igbo man in Onitsha.

Igbos are in SS/ SE.

SS is NOT a tribe for your information
