Dennixe001 post:

THE MYTHS:

As a boy growing up on the street of Port
Harcourt, I was told so many horrible things
about Igbos:I was told that Igbos were planning to push Rivers people to Abia State for the people of Abia to inhabit Rivers State because of our resources.

I was told that Igbo people enslaved and ruled
over my people in Bori the traditional
headquarters of Ogoni Kingdom.

I was told that Odumegwu Ojukwu, Onyeka
Onwenu and other prominent Igbos brazenly
rejoiced over the execution of my uncle Ken Saro Wiwa because of the role he played during the Civil War.
I was told that it is better to be slaves to Hausas than to be brothers to Igbos because, Igbos are worse than Hausas.

THE EFFECTS:

These things made me to terribly detest Igbos
beyond what you can imagine, I was always
skeptical, cynical and suspicious while dealing
with Igbos. It also affected my friendship with
Igbo guys, I was always careful not to be a victim, no matter how they value the friendship, as long as they are Igbos, they were bad eggs to me.

It also severely affected my relationship with Igbo girls, 70% of the girls I have seen are Igbos girls but I have never treated any of my Igbo girlfriends fairly because, I programmed my mind not to be interested in anything beyond the fun
attached to the chemistry of boys and girls stuff while dealing with an Igbo girl, I didn’t want to make the mistake of dating an Igbo girl to the extent of marrying her.

THE DISCOVERY:

I was posted to Akwa Ibom State for my national
youth service in November 2013, there I made so
many Igbo friends, almost 60% of Akwa Ibom
corps members are from Igbo extraction, mainly from IMSU, FUTO, ABSU, UMUDIKE, ESUT and IMT.

There I saw how determined a typical Igbo youth is, there I saw the natural tendency for economic success in a typical Igbo guy, there I saw the reason why Igbos are entrepreneurs allover the globe, there I saw that God specially gave them the metaphysical eyes to see money in things and
where you don’t even think of smelling money, there I saw that even though the Igbos have had severe political travails and marginalization, they will forever remain the economic salt of Nigeria.

While we were serving, those of us who are Port Harcourt breed UNIPORT/RSUST corps members were always complaining that Akwa Ibom is beautiful but not groovy like Port Harcourt, we were always complaining that the town is dry with no night life like Port Harcourt. But our friends from the Igbo extraction were seeing things
differently, they saw Akwa Ibom as a beautiful
virgin land highly in need of economic
exploration, they saw huge business
opportunities in where we saw boredom.

We were complaining of the insufficient N19,800 ‘alawi’ (allowance) while they were seeing it as
potential small scale business capital. We used our alawi to club in one night because, we didn’t see it as good enough to help us, while our Igbo friends inject it into their small scale businesses.

We were always going to Tropicana to see movies while our Igbo friends are busy going to Lagos to bring wears and jewelries for us to buy. We were always calling home for money but our Igbo friends were sending money home instead.

At the end of my service year, I said I was going back to Port Harcourt because I believed Uyo was too dry for me to hustle, but my Igbo friends stayed back because they saw Uyo as a land lacking business and as such, it’s good for them to
make money through the introduction of
different businesses.

THE REVERSAL:

I came back to Port Harcourt then pondered on my experience with these Igbo brains, I then realised why people hate them, I felt bad
seriously for wrongly hating them all these while, I decided to love them because, they have the kind of zeal I’d love to emulate.


THE CONVICTION:

When I was fully convinced that the Igbos are not only my role models but my blood was when they went against all odds to make Goodluck Jonathan
their own, they loved him even more than some us from the South South, they gave him their full support at the poll not minding the consequences. Ever since, I couldn’t stop loving Igbos but to love them even more.

THE RECOMMENDATION:

Igbos drive the economy of every towns and cities in Nigeria, nobody can change that, so instead of hating them for doing business in your place, I’d advise you compete with them even if you know you can’t beat them because, it is your land that is benefiting economically and otherwise with such
healthy competition, it is a win win situation.

IN CONCLUSION:

Igbos are subject of hate in this country,
apparently due to wrong perception, but I
personally think Igbos are cool like any other
tribe, and bad like any other tribe too. Though my main problem with them is that, they never admit their flaws no matter how glaring but they are always quick to lampoon the slightest folly of other tribes.

If you want to be successful economically, think like Igbos!

How many times do we have to tell you that ND is not a tribe,and it consists of so many ethnic groups of which Igbo is among,and there are over 30 dialects of Igbo language being spoken across the SS and SE.

My dad is from delta's anioma,mom from Benin.me born in niger state. And currently lives in abj..we are igbos and speak fluent igbo.the fact that old eastern region was broken into SS and SE due to political interest doesn't in any way change the identity of igbos or anyone in SS and SE.

Get that into wherever you use for thinking.

I stopped reading the crap when I got how Ironsi!!! Receive some sense!! I don't want to think you are an impostor parading your self as a Niger Deltan.. . This is 2016 and not 60s. write your own history leave those dead villains you call past heroes, unless your own history is to hate igbos and embrace the north. I hail thee.

Yorubas and their cotravellers have been spreading their baseless propaganda that Igbos are desperately dragging Nigerdelta along because of their crude oil. The same Nigerdeltans whose freedom fighters threatening war and retaliation for Biafrans killed in Onitsha. So, forcing who? Did Igbos force them at going point to tag along with them?

Yorubas propaganda was Igbos wants to steal Niger delta oil. Now it's Niger Delta are killing igbo business. Frustration indeed!

In case many of you leeches are not well schooled in the geography of Nigeria, a good part of the Nigerdelta are Igbos, and there's no how they wouldn't relate with their kiths and kins in SE.

So, you can know take a dive into the deepest part of the Atlantic ocean to quench your greed.

Igbos' survival is not dependent on political posts, presidency or crude oil unlike the greedy and selfish Yoruba leeches and their Northern masters.
The most important thing is having oil in your brain. The Japan, Luxembourg and Switzerland achieved prosperity without crude oil. 

https://www.nairaland.com/2461629/onshore-oil-fields-dont-want/7#39264577

Oyigbo LGA and Ogba-Ndoni-Egbema LGA are the two largest oil producing LGAs in Nigeria.

Both LGAs are Igbo LGAs in Rivers State, and it is a reality that must be a source of discomfort to Igbo haters.
To make matters worse for enemies of progress, Anambra state and Imo state have the largest gas reserves in Nigeria. Miserable haters like you can help yourself out with a dose of rat poison.

There are crude oil wells in Izombe and Egbema, both in Imo State, being operated by Addax/Chevron and Sterling global respectively for many decades now.

Obigbo and Egbema were added to Rivers state in the 1976 boundary adjustment. They were part of the old Imo State and East Central. Infact Dee Sam Mbakwe took then federal government to court to return back those territories to Imo state.

Nigeria's total gas deposit is 188 TCF and Anambra has more than 30 tcf -

The op is funny. We can never have a truer friend and neighbours than the igbos. This repeated propaganda from the yorubas are worrisome.

I once believed them but this last election was an eye opener. The only tribe enjoying one Nigeria are the Hausas and the yorubas. They are using the same propaganda during the war up till today.

I will be very pleased to see yorubas make their union with The northerners stronger than putting so much energy to dividing the SS and The SE.

The northerners are not worried about SS,/SE. As much as the Yorubas. I need a Yoruba man to really explain to me why the are so worried about us but refused to to support GET during the election

Funnicator:
We have all come to observe how much Igbo's from the SE political zone go into deep depth and long length in order to claim brotherhood with the political SS states.

These Igbo's from Anambra, Enugu, Abia, IMO, Ebonyi also go as far as recanting that Anioma, Etche, Ndoni, Ogbia, Ikwerre and other communities in the NDelta are Igbo's yet we don't see those people being claimed proclaiming their Igboness.

When you go too desperate trying to form a branch to connect you with some people you come out as being desperate. No matter how much Igbo's love to share a country with these communities I suggest you leave them to observe how important you are, and come after you, running after them while they remain non-challant reeks of desperation and you should not blame them when they decide not to align with desperados.


Also, sharing a country with these militants might lead to renewal of the crises in the Nigerian state. Ijaws are good at sabotage and with little issues in a Biafran state, they might be quick to form another NDA and go all out on sabotage.

I reside in Uyo, trust me, Ibibios love to have Igbo friends but when it comes to issues of dismemberment of Nigeria, they go all out for a total ND republic.

You can call me Yoruba or whatever. Mana Mara na eziokwu na afu ufu. Those communities don't even recognize themselves as your kindred.

If you want a Biafran republic. You can have it easily with core five Igbo states.
Attaching yourself to Ikwerres and Aniomas and Etches and others when they are unconcerned about your brotherhood or agitation might spell doom for you.

I'm done.

OMAR12:
someone woke up this morning and decided that Igbo is his or her problem, just as u have Yoruba in north central and Hausa in north east and west so can the igbos be found in south south, the etches and ndoni and oyigbo and anioma don't av any need to come out A brag about their igboness least u tag them cheat beater. everyday all I see here is Igbo this and Igbo that. wonder if the Igbo were the one acting the way the fulani's herdsmen are acting today. I believe the whole of the south east would have come under heavy fire. just by ur post alone I know u will be at the forefront of it. igbos don't need anyone to survive if the can bounce back after the war with 20 pounds I believe they are the biggest ally anyone would wish partner with. Igbo mma mma nu. don't pay attention to these people.

See frustrations from confused hypocrites who are nototorios in plotting and causing mischief in the polity just for them to gain undue advantages over the better South.

These are the same hypocrites who go about town rejoicing and supporting the use of violence and extra-judicial killings as a means to quelling a genuine agitation by IPOB.

Are Yorubas now tired of shouting, 'kill Kanu!', 'hang Kanu!'?

Yeye dey smell...
Hypocrites everywhere in their land...

OP u spoke the truth. We South South people may be agrieved, but we dont have that that strong hatred for d North like the igbo do.

Because as far as South South people are concern, Igbo and Northerners are all oppressors.

We know how igbo oppress us when some of us were in Eastern region dominated by igbos. I even believe northerners are less oppressive compared to Igbo. We cant forget how Agunyi Ironsi as head of state bombarded Niger delta for 12 days to win the war against Niger Delta Republic as Declared by Isaac Adoko boro the pioneer of Niger Delta struggle in 1966!

The only reason with dont relate more with northerners is because of thier religion islam which we find uncomfortable with. If Northerners were christians, we would have preferred them. Atleast Northerners are a bit Useful in Nigeria equation with thier food. What does south east really contribute to Nigeria? Apart from depleting our oil dollar through importation for consumption?

Yes as today, igbo want to align with south south by all means because even if they destroy the whole South East, Federal Govt wont even notice, hence thier attachment to us.

They are not attaching to us South South because they love us, they only want to use us to thier own advantage. To be sincere they see us as people who are not qualified to stand on thier own.

Anioma is Anioma. Ikwerre is Ikwerre. Just Urhobo is Urhobo. There are no Igbo in South South. You only have some ethnic group with similarity with Igbo. But that dont make them Igbo. Just as Itsekiri is not Yoruba despite strong similarities.

Note: I am a full born south south man. If u like call me Yoruba. You can as well call me abokii. I dont give a fuckkkkk

This issue has received numerous trashing in recent times in everything you in life, whatever you think is good, wherever you think is good, whatever believe you have there will still be some set of persons opposed to it. it's just the way life is. Everyone can't be on the same side. No matter how glaring a fact is, it'll still be disputed with countering facts. I stay in calabar I think it's one of Nigeria's most greenish and beautiful capital but there are still some aba boys who claim aba is more beautiful so it's an inherent norm in our society for people to have divergent views. Some ikwerres think they are igbos or believe so while some find it disgusting calling them Igbo's and when the time comes for the Biafra struggle to come fruition the side that supports the Igbo dream should go with them . as for me am an ikwerrian not an Igbo man and I'll never accept to be Igbo even if my whole family accepts that I never will period!!

What is South-South people? The Nigerian constitution recognises tribes, it does not recognise anything called SS or SE. Infact, 30 years ago there was nothing called SS or SE. We only started hearing about SE/SS/SW about the time Abach died. In terms of Igbos, how do you recognise a person as Igbo? I'm from Anambra, I speak Igbo as my ancestral language and I have an Igbo surname. The same applies to people from Anioma, Etche,Ikwere,Oyigbo and Ndoki. So who is Igbo and who is not? I have been to Elele in Ikwereland several times and we were all speaking Igbo, only difference was that I had to be more attentive in other to understand them
Well. So who is Igbo and who is not? The OP who wrote this nonsense would not be able to tell the difference between me and an Ikwere man if we were speaking Igbo, he would term all of us Igbos. When it comes to Niger-Delta Republic, how will the Isoko,Itsekiri, Ijaw and over 30 tribes in the south of Nigeria come together for a Niger-Delta Republic? What if Ogoni people don't want to be part of it? The funniest thing about this Niger-Delta Republic is that unlike the Biafran agitation where we are seeing people on the streets protesting, nobody is protesting for a Niger-Delta Republic. Not even one person! So how will this Republic come about when there is no action? More than 30 tribes and not even one single umbrella body to unite them. Do think that countries fall from the sky? We Igbo want a referendum, the minorities who are comfortable with us can come with us while the ones who are not can stay back in Nigeria with Hausas and Yorubas. So this thread is just pointless.

Abagworo:
[s]No real Igbo needs anyone's alliance by force. We are more than capable. Most of these people on social network and IPOB are life failures that always want to cling on to people and blame others for their problems. Take a look at Rochas Okorocha the most prominent Igbo man today and understand that Ndigbo are brothers with Hausa, Yoruba, Ikwerre, Efik, Tiv, Angas, Itsekiri and every other peace loving Nigerian. We are successful by every standard and are proud people too. I feel ashamed at some of those Igbos because I'm deep rooted in both SS and SE and therefore have a deeper understanding of the futility in their dreams. God bless Igboland and Nigeria.[/s]

How exactly are we Igbos brothers with Hausas and Yorubas? Did the Igbos as a tribe even know who Hausas and Yorubas were 150 years ago? What has changed since then to make us 'brothers'?

Oh yeah!................... Lord Lugard came to tell all of us that we are brothers! How could I forget! It is the white man who tells Igbos who their brothers are!

You and Rochas are really smart. First it was allegiance to the British crown, now it is allegiance to the Hausa/Fulani oligarchy. Where is allegiance to the Igbo nation?

Today, people are talking about SE and SS as if these terms mean anything yet 'SE' and 'SS' didn't even exist 25 years ago.


You and Rochas have no sense of self determination outside the 'one Nigeria' legacy of Lugard yet both of you congratulate your selves for adopting this 'prison yard' mentality as the best.
