Yorubaas are the centerpiece of the problem of Nigeria. I cannot ignore them in relevant matter like this. The fact is Igbos by virtue of their strong abhorrence of evil and marginalization of any sort, will never, I repeat, will never condone of the federal governments allowing all SS and SE ports to be functional while denying Yorubas the rights to use their ports. This is how a typical Igbo man his...has zero tolerance for evil and marginalization even when done to his enemy.

Then you will continue to Fight your neighbour while the enemies get to your gate.

Masterclass32:
- Reno Omokri believes the
Igbo people of Nigeria are
being marginalized

- In a post on his Facebook wall,
he vented about the
marginalization of the Igbos

- He also proceeded to provide
what he called evidence of the
marginalization

Reno Omokri, the spokesman of
former Nigerian president,
Goodluck Jonathan, has said the
Igbo people are being
marginalized in Nigeria.

On his Facebook wall, he wrote:

"If you do not believe that the
Igbo are marginalized in Nigeria
then visit Aba and Nnewi. There,
Nigerians of Igbo origin
manufacture (not assemble) all
manner of products that begin from Letter A and end with letter
Z.

"In Aba alone, they produce 1
million pairs of shoes EVERYDAY
(you read me right EVERYDAY). In
Nnewi, they have more
Manufacturing companies than
they have in Nigeria's largest geo political zone, the Northwest.

"Yet, both Anambra or Abia do not
have an airport even though their
citizens are the heaviest
commercial travelers in Nigeria
BAR NONE! "Yet, some states with little to no
commercial activity have not just
an airport, but a fully functional
international airport. Try
explaining this to yourself without
using the word marginalization!"

The cleric says the two areas
in the southeast are very
productive but the government
has turned a blind eye to the
ingenuity of the people.

He claimed that there is a deliberate attempt to under-develop the south east.

Politics is a Game of Numbers. The Hausa/Fulani/Arabs know this and for this purpose, they have been importing Arabs from Sudan, Cameroon, Libya, Saudi, Iran etcetera to boost their numbers since Aminu Kano and his Matasine misdemeanor. So please stop this nonsense marginalization. The Igbos and The Yoruba's are not handicapped. Of course they can use their brains to fight for their course. They should start doing just that and stop bungling. Nigeria belongs to Nigerians and neither to Arabs nor to Fulani Herders and their cattle

abescom:
The [s]problem is igbo. You call yorubas your enemy when they do not support you, hate the hausas and then expect support.

You practicise politics of hatred everywhere you go. People are paranoid of you lot as you simply have not shown any reason why you should be trusted. Or what makes you think I will trust and support someone who calls me his enemy without any just and sensible reason.

And be fair, are you guys united? How many of you supported Orji's move to becoming president? Things will change for you lot when 1. You accept the fact that what happened during the biafra war is in the past. 2. No one is your enemy, everyone is merely fighting for themselves 3. You decide to unite to get the presidency and find way to win the support of others. Until then, forget it.[/s]

Nonsense trash!
Go and school your kinsmen

People, you see how this people reason?

I'm Igbo but I'm tired of passing the buck. Why can't we continue to fight to bring those infrastructures instead of throwing unnecessary jabs

Thk u Reno, when Enugu was made an international airport, they came at gej with their tiger clawed nails. Gej was the only one that allowed ndigbo to use the seaports in Lagos without fear of harassment and intimidation. my people were able to run their businesses and slept with their two eyes closed.
Today, to import, wahala! to export, wahala! and someone will say Buhari is god sent!

Real2020:
Afonja...you can never reason with them even if you show them facts...never!

Donkeys(ipobs) are brain dead dey can't even reason...

konfused:
To all and sundry who says Igbos are not marginalised, can you give one tangible reason for the anomaly that Reno pointed out.

It's very obvious, but due to the hatred they have for Igbos, they will say it doesn't matter.....

Sometimes I wonder what is it about the Igbos that makes every other tribe in Nigeria hate them.
When it comes to all ills associated with Nigeria, all other tribes re not exempted, so why the hate.

Name any crime associated with Nigeria, you will not fail to see an individual from every tribe that's has been involved one way or the other.

So why always the IGBOS.

Ka Chineke nyere anyi aka.

truth be told...before that january 1966 coup igbos had it all...the presidency, senate presidency, regional govt, resource control, better relationship with other regions...but then some decided to bring out the beast in people and here we are today stuck in 1966

You hate the truth but the truth hates you even more.

UAE123:
True talk coming from the wrong source because this same man worked under the immediate past president & did not say this thing or make his former boss correct the wrong when they where in government.

The first international airport in SE Igboland was built by who.?

You see why Reno is wiser than you.

Buhari will never be a God sent but he's miles beta than Jonathan. That aside I am yet to see anyone stopping Igbos from from using the port like they did under Jonathan. Pls share if you have anything contrary n if not quit the unnecessary cry it will not help your cause.

Real2020:
What is funny is some Nigerians particularly yorubas think it's natural and okay for Lagos to have 2 seaports and largest functional international airport by design and for SE to have none. Some actually think Lagos has all these ports and airport by merit. When you try to to reason with them that why are Port Harcourt, Calabar, Warri, Onne and Onitsha ports not as functional as Lagos ports, they come up with all manners of excuses but you tell that that Dangote is using Calabar seaport to import most of his goods into SE, and then they keep quiet.Lol! Same goes for the airport, why are Lagos, Abuja, Kaduna and Kano the only functional airports in the country for international direct flight services? The fact is if you go right now, I mean now, to Lagos and Abuja, count and interview those traveling to international destinations, I assure you over 50% are Igbos. Then why can't they travel directly from Enugu, Uyo, Calabar, Asaba or Port Harcourt? Same goes for their goods...all these companies Reno talked about in Nnewi, Aba and Onitsha import their goods via Lagos port, that's over 1000 kms drive and paying all kinds of customs fees and bribes on the way to finally make it to SE, and you tell me this is fair?

Yorubas...how will you people feel having to drive 1000kms to SE to fly and clear your goods? Not only do you do this one time only but a constant thing for the past 50 yrs? And you tell it's ok? Yorubas....where are your conscience? Do you people have feelings at all? Do you have hearts? I commend Fayose and Fani but more yorubas need to come out and condemn this evil and wickedness!

That is why their ancestor was cast out of heaven


Only God knows what crime he committed

Deluded mind thinks they are more than everyone...oya go conduct the interview na....

Stella Odua was about doing building a cargo airport in Anambra before the gang up against her and force Jonathan to drop her as the minister of aviation.

Igbos condition would not have degenerated to this if you guys supported Awolowo in 1979..... But you guys decided to side with the North against Awolowo that have the interest of the Southern Nigeria at heart.

ok u try. But ask Reno the role he played during gej to ensure that these things are provided? The man is being hypocritical.

Reno is reaching.

How can A small town called Nnewi have more manufacturing than an Entire Geopolitical Zone that contain the duo states of of Kano and Kaduna plus others?

Freetech:
ok, which of the Igbos, Biafrans or Nigerian?

Dumbest post on NL this year

ekems2017:

Lol.... was about


I'm sure Jonathan "was about" too

So Reno could not recommend GEJ to do something about it for all those his wasted years at aso rock. Hypocritical Pesin.

you shot yourself in the foot when you said dangote uses Calabar seaport. why are igbos not using it? is it because of their hate for Calabar people?

Biko shut up.

There is no way Anambra in its entirety can contest with the combined economic strength of Kaduna + Kano... not to talk of one small local government called Nnewi.

Can't you see the stupidity of his statement?

True talk
haters will not like this

Igbo Amaka

Deseo:
So the absence of an Airport means that they are being marginalized?

Just say you want Airports and stop looking for reasons to justify your craze.

Surely you have not articulated your thoughts, so you have made no reasonable comment
