oh ok. pardon my ignorance. but still a yoruba man is controlling crime in igboland. our odua son is keeping crime in check among ala igbo. whether he is appointed or selected

Rehabilitation:
Can you just shut up for once you tribal-supremacist

Rehabilitation:
Just one month ban for the hate and tribal slurs you spew all over the place? Mehn the mod that banned you didn't do well at all, you suppose to be banned forever from every public forum till it is certified you have been rehabilitated

Rehabilitation:
Mr man, the commissioner of police in Enugu is not a Yoruba man. Is Emmanuel Ojukwu a Yoruba name?

yak:
nwafor, anyi ahuna gi.i remember it was d same T.A. Orji that sent all non-indigene civil servants packing. am full blooded Igbo but won't hesitate to tell it to d face of every Igbo man that[b] most parents of Igbo extraction has taught their children hate, wickedness[/b]. God av mercy

Laburus:
this cannot happen in any present day eastern Nigeria.


before you tell me about altine Umar (a good friend of my dad) that was in 1956. 50 years ago. then there was an Igbo member of Parliament in Northern Region Rep Sabongari his name was Mr Okafor can't remember the second name.

two months ago an Igbo boy of 31 years was appointed SA Social Media to Taraba State Governor. this is common in many states. in the east? only IMO have a malo SA for example.


point is Igbo's are having it better than any other tribe in Nigeria in terms of acceptability.

If I am a tribal supremacist it is in self defence. I learnt all this bad character here on Nairaland There's only so much taunting you can endure before you feel compelled to retaliate.

@the bolded, yet they blackmail others by their sermons of marginalization. I may sound tribalistic here, but I think our political leaders in the south west are naive, this is how[b] tinubu and fasola started by giving these fellows appointments and still they threatened to determine who will be the next governor in the 2015 elections against their wish[/b]. The oba of Lagos had to do a dirty work for them.

I wish Amosun and Ogun state goodluck in their quest, I know Amosun is strategically thinking of his successor in 2019 and he is scared of the threats from the opposing camp against his preferred successor. If the sw governors are truly delivering the dividends of governance to their people especially in the area of job creation, there will be no need of all these political patronages to fellows who will still turn around and spit on your face.

Let's call a spade a spade. It's one thing to name a dog, it's another thing to inscribe a name on a dog.

Highly educated Yoruba elites has no problem with the igbo people. Those that hates igbo people are the lazy and illiterates yorubas. Kudos to Gov. Amosun.
Won't it make sense if the state of origin thing in nigeria is removed? If not, those living in the north will say I am a 'northerner' while the south will say i am a 'southerner'? Let love lead. stop the killing.

Rehabilitation:
Are you saying that the wishes of Tinubu and Fashola are more important than the wishes of the people in electing the governor of Lagos state? Again, are you implying that the Igbos determine who becomes governor in Ogun state in the second leg of your comment?

basilo101:
when i was in kano in 2007 i met some guys from one family who spoke perfect igbo more than me, on inquiry it turns out they were all born and brought up in Enugu and their Dad was appointed into cabinet under Chimaroke. The problem with yorubas is that they think the world revolve around Lagos/Ibadan, they refuse to migrate and integrate in other regions while warning others to stay away from their political space which is never gonna happen anyway

Goke7:
Abeg let's get real, every Governor or president are always 100% interested in who succeeds them, its all politics and the igbos have been seen to be very useful in any political calculations in Nigeria right now because of the way they litter themselves everywhere due to their republican nature. This is what the pdp used very well in the Lagos Guber and national assembly elections last year which made it possible to see igbos and other non-indigenes representing Lagos in the House of reps.

With way the Lagos population is spilling over into Ogun state territories via ota, mowe, akute and environs, surely we now have lots of igbos in ogun state territiory even in places like ogijo-sagamu axis. Politicians are no fools, they understand what this means and will use it very well to their advantage, after all the numbers is what is most important in winning elections not too much grammar.

Rehabilitation:
Full blooded Igbo indeed Did your own parents also taught you how to hate and be wicked? Hmmm people dey for this world oo

Rehabilitation:
Lol, you are contradicting yourself, bro. In your previous post, you were against the governors appointing Igbos in their government and here you alluded to the importance of Igbos in Nigeria politics. Then the question is since you know the importance of Igbos in the political calculations of Nigeria, why are you against the governors who are integrating them knowing their importance in the political calculations of their states?

solok:
Pls give name/s and portfolio of Yoruba wo/men that have been similarly integrated in any part of Igboland SouthEast. While you are at it, include also names of 'Yoruba Yoruba' pple that have land and/or market stall allocation direct from govt.

LoveMachine:
Why are you mad? A governor makes a laudable step to unite the country and all you can do is talk rubbish? Someone has to extend the hand of peace and in this case it is a Yoruba governor in the SW. What's not to like? Now in the SE the same thing can be done. And then it can spread to the rest of the country.

monex:
one thing we (Nigerians) have in common is that we are opinionated and do not verify facts before believing or rubbishing them.

The Fulani Mayor of Enugu is a fact.

This is the reason ibos will never respect Yoruba. They call us cowards and we are sure acting like it. To ibos (as we can see from the first page of this thread) it's their smartness and not the goodness of the Yoruba's heart that got them the position. Now watch as we are taunted with this till Amosun leaves office. Yoruba leaders are dropping the ball each day, they are tone deaf to their own people's plights of having to defend ourselves daily for being 'accommodating'. For this single act, I withdraw my support for Amosun, he's now one of the AKOTILETA enemies of the Yorubaland. When a people refuse to mark their boundaries for outsiders, they lose even the ground they stand on. This was very unnecessary, and the next thing we'll see in few years is the ibo man running for political office in ogun, as we have now given him the head start he needed. It should have been an unwritten rule that no ibo should be appointed or elected anywhere in Yorubaland while we clean the mess we have on our hand. The ancient Yoruba were the brave ones, the Yoruba of today are feckless cowards. One tribe that will be in danger of outside influence more than any other is Yoruba. Self preservation is key, and Yoruba are lacking.

makazona:
You are

First, wrong.

Second, a bigot

Third, still a cave man.

When was the last time you visited the east? Just be honest. Have you ever been to. Enugu, the eastern capital?

When you truthfully answer these questions and do an offline check, you will realize you are dwelling too much in the past.

Good morning

aresa:
I see where you are coming from, but we can not be like them, we can not stoop to their hate, anger, bitterness and bigotry level.

As Yoruba people, we are great and ahead of the rest of Nigeria because we are not preoccupied with the sad burden of hate and anger like that crippled them and their ability to so see, reason and perform beyond such ills that's been crippling them since the beginning of time.


They are at the bottom of everything because of hatred, anger, bitterness and bigotry so why stoop to that level?

Our ways, pluralistic nature, lifestyle and culture is the reason why we are great and why our region is the recipient of nearly every investment entering Nigeria so why lose that edge and dirty ourselves because of some backward, unsophisticated and hate mongering people.?


Let them remain in their gutter, we don't have to get into that gutter with them..
