how many Yoruba or hausa people went to east buy land develope the land like igbos do in other states or u want igbo people to dash u land like elegunshi family dash igbos in lekki ,fulani people graze thier cattle in our land for free later they will still sell the cow to us ,who is fooling who ? m'gbo m'gbo papugi isi for this ur statement
it's because your people won't create room for this due to their hostility towards visitors and strangers. In a situation whereby you want to build a filling station in the east and the community is asking you to join an indigen in the ownership, then you know why people can't develop your place. You don't even sell lands to outsiders. So what are we saying? Igbo in their place won't give people what they go outside to ask and they are easily given in such places.


BTW, can you graze on what the cattles graze on ? Do you eat grasses?

I have a colleague like you. He hates people who " bring in ethnic coloration into issues " but he is the biggest tribalist in the office.

Hope you practice what you preach.

The difference between Igbo and IPOB is their mentality and speech.
Onyeka Onwenu sounds like an ipob woman in high place, always blaming other people for their woes.
Come to think that she is not the only one relieved of her DG duty makes her rambling pathetic, shameless, ludicrous, lugubrious and ungrateful.
how stvpid some of the nigerian youth re? That s why they voted an old man when we have agile young professional men from this great country. How stvpid they re.

Mr man, so someone like onyeka onwenu, a multitalented, multifaceted and multitasking young woman from imo state is what you opened that your **** to called a rambling pathetic and someone that sound like an IPOB woman? You must sick cos you didn't read the articles but just to focus on the headline.
When someone like her is telling you and I what is happening in the system, we should keep quiet and listens. Learn how to judge her and criticised what is wrong in our systems cos The system is so corrupt and tribalist if you don't know ?,
mediocrity from some part of the northern state has ruined the system if you don't know.
I once said it 3days ago, that the yorubas will always wants to take side of something bad or good from the north. The worst sets of people in the world.

**** keep ranting because she condemn what s happening in our country.

A lot of you dumb Southerners don't even know the level to which your Country has been taken from you...until someone comes and drags you out of your mindless stupor and commands you to convert or lose your head...I worked with some NGOs in Abuja and I can factually tell you that people where outrightly discriminated against based on their ethnicity...there was a pathetic case of a woman who they refused to help unless she marries some Alhaji she didn't even know...it's going to become obvious soon enough...

A typical lgbo mentality, alwz playing victim. Abeg na only she dem sack ni?

You really should rise above tribalism. So all ibo people have that mentality?

You want Nigeria to move forward with this your mentality? Don't be in a hurry to reply me,just think about what I've just asked you.

Did you even bother to read up on her "accusations"? Or coz She mentioned NORTHERNERS which you are one of, her accusations should be dismissed? How do you let tribal sentiments blind you from asking for the truth? Tribal bigotry has really eaten deep into you. SMH

Mummy Onyeka, ordinarily you belong in the class of King Sunny Ade, Oliver de coque, Ebenezer Obey, etc. Because truly you are a veteran in the industry but unfortunately today, due to your greed and wanton desire for easy wealth, you have sold your integrity to the highest bidder and lost all respect that should be accorded a woman of your calibre. Today, I wouldn't even place you in the class of people like Vic-O, because at least, those people have something they stand for, for you madam, I'm yet to see exactly what your values are.

From supporting Babangida's tyrranical rule, to spearheading Abacha's "President for life" ambition, to licking Obasanjo's butt, Yaradua didn't have your time but you eventually wriggled your way into power again with GEJ and carried his failed reelection bid on your head like a pure water seller.

Right now you should just bow your head in shame please, and stop trying to whip up tribal sentiments because you lost a job given to you as compensation. Because if I ask you now, since you got into office, how have you been able to touch the life of the average Nigerian? You go dey look me like luqmon.

Please be gone! Nothing you or say willbchange the fact that you were disgraced out of office.

Its is really sad how people read but refuse to make sense of what they have just read. Or do they read at all? They simply jump into premeditated conclusions, spewing gibberish. I really pity other southerners who play this ethnic game, insulting those they cant even stand face to face. What Onyeka Onwenu said is real. The earlier we speak with one mind, the better except if you got to where you are by playing the ethnic/mediocre card. Good for you then.

The mediocrity and hatred from the teenagers in the west and some die hard APC followers against the IBO race is legendary.. Too bad! I'm not IBO but damn! People didn't even read the write up before the insults.

Since the civil war, from generation to generation the Yoruba and IBO are always at dagger drawn, even for no cause.. What a shame! Nairaland promotes such too and even the unborn Yoruba believe the IBO is his enemy while the ibo-regardless of the Biafra agitations still consider them brothers-probably in business

wetin person no go hear, is it not the same onyeka that almost went on her knees to greet PMB the other day? Now she turns around to say all this trash against northerners. My peeps from the south east needs to learn more about diplomacy, its not everything you are facing in your job you come out to the public to say, who says onyeka cannot be called back into the public service to serve in another capacity? The way she has gone about her rantings will surely block another opportunity and then the cry of marginalization will start.

All other persons from other tribes faced and are still facing what Onyeka is talking about, its a National problem down to the local govt level but our brothers from the south east must learn how to use diplomacy to address their issues and not come out to abuse other regions anytime they have challenges.

what in the article do you want me to re-read if I can't ask you a question deduce from her reason in the report? So, if you are asked a question in an exam, it shows your lecturer is not intelligent? Cognitive dissonance!

Ok.

Onyeka Onwuenu started by stating the laxity of workers in her establishment and how she was able to reorganize the place for effective administration.... You skipped this part in your reading.

She went on to explain how workers in that government departments have sectionalize the workforce and how she fought tirelessly to create a balance.... You skipped this part of canker worm that is eating deep into the fabrics of national integration and development.

Onyeka Onwuenu is a PRO Nigerian. Her first marriage was to a yoruba man....You see why she isn't a tribalist?

Her songs has always been about ONE Nigeria, LOVE amongst tribes and all the media gingles she did for government promoting ONE nation.

Here's a woman who believes in one Nigeria, Promotes Nigeria crying out for equal right and privileges in the same nation she so much believe in and all you do was to find hate to justify a bad system.

Are you more Nigerian than she is or you're just a tribalist believing the Injustices she recounts will carry on forever?

If you need a GOOD and working NATION, do the right thing. She didn't complain she was sacked, she only recounts her challenges while discharging her duties
