Why were you clamouring to remain with Nigeria till 2019 and further just a few months ago? Or do you have selective amnesia?

You can only deceive yourself, I've told you this repeatedly.


That I supported Jonathan for presidency doesn't mean I wanted to be part of Nigeria.

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
hypocrisy stinks so high.

You people are just trouble makers.
You think you are the only people free to hate, while others should never hate you in return.
You hate him, he hates you. Simple.No sugar coating.

Why should they be questioned? Are they the ones that award contracts for roads construction?

Oga, if u have a beef with DSS, please contact any constitutional/human rights lawyer and file a case against the DSS DG. Better still, the UNHRC is there for you, stop this madness! If person for govt mess, na buhari, if police collect 50naira from u , na buhari, very soon if buhari will be blamed for virtually everytin.
Don't get me wrong, its not right for the DSS, to flout orders but the right tin to do is drag them to court not blaming the president. If he interfers, and say release NK today, some people will still come here and lash at him for a dictator he is for unilaterally releasing a man from custody and abandoning due process .....You will even call for his impeachment. How are u sure he gave the order? do u have a proof

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

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



True. Igbo is ONE.

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.

Reading your post has given me hope in the possibility of a new Nigeria that can work.

Your reference to the fact that the present structure robs every Nigerian is spot on.

However, in pursuing the various alternatives available to us, be it restructuring or self determination struggles, we must eschew violence.

For instance how do you explain a situation where OPC will claim to be fighting for Yorubas and yet they will be manhandling same yorubas; IPOB will claim to be fighting for Igbos and yet they will be preventing lawful igbo traders from opening their shops as it happened during the demonstrations; Nokia Haram will claim to be fighting for Northern Muslims and yet they go about killing same people. So who is fooling who?

Let all of us shun ethnic bigotry while we look for solutions to Nigeria problems.

Whenever and where ever they are looting us you will find that all ethnic groups will be represented.

Ika is a local government in Delta north, not a tribe. Anioma is an acronym coined by Denis Osadebey and co. and never a tribe.

Let us skip the political conveniencies and tell the kids the blunt truth that doesn't appeal all the time.

SO IS GOING TO BE LIKE WHEN DEATH VISIT A TERRIBLY SICK MAN, HIS FAMILY MEMBERS IRRESPECTIVE OF THE LOVE THEY HAVE FOR HIM, MAY HAVE AT ONE TIME OR THE OTHER THOUGHT HE MAY DIE WHILE SOME WILL EVEN SAY IS BETTER HE DIE AND AVOID D SUFFERING. BY THE TIME THEY(KANU IN PARTICULAR) WILL BE JAIL, MANY JOBLESS PEOPLE SHOUTING BIAFRA WOULD HAVE BEEN RECEIVING 5000 MONTHLY ALLOWANCE AND WOULD HAVE FORGET THE NAME, KANU.

You are a fooli swear, How did he favor the north with his appointment? the contitution says he should appoint ministers from each states and he did. Are Igbo not in his cabinet? You are not ashamed to ask PMB about 2nd Niger bridge did you vote for him? did he promise you second Niger bridge? Why can't you go and ask GEJ that promise and your your region.

You're wealthier yet you complain of poor roads, lack of infrastructure, underdevelopment etc. and you're grappling with all sorts of crime like drug trafficking, prostitution, armed robbery and money rituals because of poverty?

You're wealthier yet the wealthiest band of Nigerians are northerners as confirmed by Forbes? (Dangote, BUA, Dantata, Danjuma, Indimi, past rulers etc.)?

Only an ibo man can claim victim and superiority in the same sentence. Your analogy is dead on arrival.

That a man is wealthier than his brother through self help doesn't mean he should be denied his share of their father's estate. Denying him that amounts to marginalization.

[quote author=uchennamani post=41507119][/quote]This is just amazing, its just seriously amazing!!
Ikwerre's in their bid to disigbo themselves, they changed name of places like umuomasi to rumuomasi. An ikwerre man will always distance himself from being igbo, so what's the fuss all about? Amechi is an ikwerre man not igbo. Igbo States are just 5 in number no more is needed.

NOTE : I never insulted you or anybody in my post, so I don't see the premise for the insults you hurled on me. Now which of us displayed maturity here?
