THE SOUTHERN HOUSE OF COMMOTION AND THE REST OF US.
By Charles Ogbu.
I've said it before and it bears repeating now, the biggest problem facing Southern Nigeria is not Buhari and his fellow islamist Nightwalkers but the presence of a very large horde of commonsensically bankrupt internet Wildlings masquerading as Southern youths.
This generation of Southerners is peopled by one of the most foolish set of young men and women. Not that the elders are any better. Not at all.But you see this crop of southern youths, they have the gene of conscientious idiocy deeply embedded in their body system. These ones....they are far removed from common-sense. Even their education is but an insult to knowledge. And their wisdom, a hoax. And of course, it is logical to assume this to be hereditary seeing as even the so called elders suffer the same affliction of mumuism when it comes to Nigerian affairs. It is simply in them to speak absent-thought and overlook the bigger picture in any issue while concentrating on trivialities. You wanna argue this, oya, come with me to social media.
Let's go........
//"Igbos are criminals" "Yorubas are cowards" "Niger Deltans are traitors" "Igbos should go with their useless 'Biafra'" "You want to 'colonize' our oyel" "shut your fucking mouth, you fucking minority!"//
Is this not what you've been reading all over cyberspace for the past 4 days??
Reading the very bitter but senseless verbal gymnastics amongst these 3 southern neighbours, do you still wonder why a certificate-less Northern Muhammadu Buhari is the president while a well lettered southern professor of law, Osinbajo is his spare tyre instead of the other way round??
The online war amongst Ndigbo, Yorubas and the Niger Delta reminds me of Maazi Okeke, my foolish neighbour, who was busy fighting his wife over a missing gizzard (eke okuko) while his covetous neighbour, Ocho-okwu, was busy taking over his entire poultry farm. That, right there, is the heavenly definition of 1st degree idiocy.
What is criminally funny in all these is that each of these southern neighbours have always been at the merciless mercy of one common oppressor, the children of Danfodio. Yet, you will never ever read them use the kind of despicable words they are currently using against themselves while referring to the one group that have kept them in devilish bondage while stealing their human and natural resources including their lives and leaving them with nothing.
The Igbos suffered pogrom at the hands of this same oppressor in 1945 in Jos and 1953 in Kano and have continued to have her sons and daughters massacred and bathed with acid even inside a church by this common enemy. The Niger Delta has had her notable leaders and sons brutally re-united with their Maker. The same common enemy owns and controls the oil in their backyard, leaving them with environment that is unsafe even for non living things. The Yorubas, too, have had their own fair share of the mindless brutality of the scions of Danfodio. Their notable leaders have been jailed by these same people. Thousands of their students protesting Awolowo's imprisonment in different Yoruba cities were killed back then. Mohammadu Buhari led this operation as a young officer. Abiola's mandate was stolen along with his life. Should we talk of Ile-ife killing and the arrest of only Yorubas including an Oba just for defending their ancient city? All these atrocities were committed against these 3 southern neighbours by one group, the Danfodios.
Yet, you will never hear these misguided youths confront their oppressor with the same zeal and anger with which they confront themselves on social media.
You are a young southerner. You weren't born during the Biafran war. All you know is what your parents told you and the ones you read in books written by Authors who have their own prejudices and biases. And right here and now, another war is systematically being executed against you and your parents by the same people who caused the first war by refusing to protect Igbos from pogrom then and still refusing to honor the Aburi Accord which would have averted the declaration of Biafra and the war that followed including this current bad blood amongst you. And it is still this common oppressor that has sworn to cause another senseless war rather than allow this British contraption to be fully restructured or dismantled in peace.
Yet, you still occupy yourselves with Igbo, Yoruba and Niger Delta online war of words.
Niger Delta want fiscal federalism that would enable them control their resources. Yorubas want true fiscal federalism. Igbos want Biafra as its beyond doubt that the fulani Oligarchy ain't ready to restructure this Lugard cage (the attorney General made this known few days ago)
The only people holding everyone to ransom here is the North. It is the same North (fulani terrorists) that will trek from Zamfara to Enugu, Delta and Ondo to rape, kill and maim women and children and the security agencies controlled by the same North will protect them while arresting you the victim. The same North used her numerical strength fraudulently acquired through census figure to shout down a bill to gift Lagos with special status. The same way they shouted down a bill for Southeast Development Commission. The same way they killed the original PIB meant to give well deserved recognition to oil producing communities in the Niger Delta
Meanwhile, while you stupid # ChildrenOfAdam were busy tearing your undies over trivialities, Northeast development commission bill was passed even before it was fully debated on the floor of NASS. And Kano and Jos were added as beneficiaries. Where will the fund for the commission come from?......The south.
Special percent of VAT (Value Added Tax that is inside everything you buy including sachet water, biscuit, beer etc) has since been set aside for the Northeast. Mind you, alcohol sales is one of the major contributors to VAT pulse; the same alcohol their sharia forbids, yet, it doesn't forbid them receiving proceeds from its sales. $2.1 billion loan was borrowed ontop all our heads for the same Northeast. This is despite billions coming in from donor agencies and countries.
Now ask yourselves; was any part of Igboland reconstructed by the FG after the Biafran war? Was any commission even set up to develop the region after the war? How about the Niger Delta? Has the govt committed even one kobo to the Ogoni clean-up exercise after making empty noise about cleaning up the region?
One more question:
What exactly is the North contributing to the federal pulse?? Apart from 'gifting' us with Boko haram and Fulani militants once adjudged the deadliest and 4th deadliest terror groups in the whole world by Global Terror Index, what other benefit is this Lugard Cage deriving from this North that would justify this criminal degree of mindless injustices and savagery Their agricultural produce like tomatoes, do they share it to Nigerians free of charge the way oil revenue is shared? Go check federal allocation table, the North contribute next to nothing despite their population,yet, they take the lion share.
Where is the fairness in that?
And, you commonsensically bankrupt southerner, you are busy fighting your neighbour who constitute no danger to you.
You are Igbo, living and doing business in Lagos. Your shops have never been attacked. Your right to life has never been trampled upon. Yet, you think Yorubas are your enemies. You spend time calling them cowards even when they fought like gallant men and women and successfully saved their ancient city of Ile-Ife from Hausa/fulani killing machine; a feat you woefully failed at, when your own governor resorted to fasting and praying after the fulani barbarians 'visited' Nimbo with their demon of death. You turn to your Niger Delta neighbours and refer to them as traitors. And you still pretend not to know that you are part of the problem??
You are Yoruba. Biafrans have never included you in their business. The agitation doesn't pose any danger to you whatsoever. Yet, you spend time mocking their agitation and insulting Nnamdi Kanu who has succeded in troubling the waters of the Nigerian polity enough to force a conversation; a feat your Oodua Congress has woefully failed to achieve. One of your own, Osinbajo, is currently being humiliated. He is the acting president, yet, he can't swear in ministers, he can't even sign budget. Why? Because he is a southern Christian deemed inferior by the fulani Oligarchs. Rather than allow Osinbajo sign the budget, six months into the 2017 fiscal year it was meant for, the whole country should grind to a halt. You are seeing all these, yet, Biafra, which is a product of the injustice in the system, is your only headache.
You are from the Niger Delta. Your waters, farmland and even the air you breath are all fraught with cancer-causing agents as a result of the demonic activities of the environmental terrorists that is the oil companies working in alliance with your govt. You rarely talk about the plight of your people. You cannot even organise a successful Sit-At-Home to draw attention to your environmental woes and the refusal of the govt to commence the Ogoni clean-up. Yet, you spend valuable time and resources ridiculing the Biafran agitation and shouting that Igbos are planning to dominate you, take over your land and steal your oil. The same oil for which you are constantly being killed and humiliated each time you try to take even one litre while fulani men from far away Zamfara come to take trailer loads and leave you with a terribly polluted environment. How many of your people own oil wells in the same oil that is yours? For Godsake, these are the grave injustices you should be spending your time and resources on!
A thousand and one Nnamdi Kanu CANNOT force anyone into Biafra. Even the entire southeast CANNOT just be declared as the Republic of Biafra WITHOUT a 'Yes or No' vote known as Referendum. So, where is the fear coming from?
Funny enough, the knives of the Children of Muhammed and the guns of Fulani terrorists do not even distinguish between Igbo, Niger Delta and Yoruba.
Meanwhile, our ghost president is still in ghost mode. Former British MP Eric Joyce tweeted he is no more. The lying buffoons at the presidency know nothing. Only the political terrorists known as the cabal knows Buhari's true status. Yet, outrageous salaries and allowances from tax payers money are still being drawn in his name. Mind boggling amount of money are ceaselessly being deducted from our treasury in the name of settling his hospital bill.
Where are these monies coming from? The South.
Yet, all that matters to southern youths is coming on social media to fight each other.
Come 2019, we will all file out to fulfil all righteousness and put another fulani man in Asorock and come back to social media to haul invectives at each other till another 4 years.
We can't even look beyond our petty emotions and see the bigger picture.
When Jonathan was president, 90% of his harshest critics were southerners but today, these same southerners have all gone deaf, dumb and blind because their "Slave Masters of Yunkai" are in power. Who are the 13 SANs that defended Buhari's certificate-lessness? They are all southerners. Femi Falana and Emeka Ngige led the group of SANs.
Today, well lettered southern youths are on social media running after grasshoppers and cockroaches while their future and that of their unborn children are ablaze.
Quite frankly, an average southerner is nothing short of a butterfly who thinks himself a bird. It grieves me to admit this but it grieves me even more that it's the truth.

That Charles ogbu is one Stupid idiot. Only a fool would keep attributing his failure to his neighbor. The "sons of Dan Fodio" or whatever, aren't responsible for whatever the south goes through, our useless and totally irresponsible leaders who know nothing but screwing eachother's daughters are responsible.

You want us to hate the northerners, right? When we are done hating them and in the end, drive them away, and we get our separate country, who do we turn around to hate? Or does the writer think the hate would just vanish into thin air?

Instead of asking us to love one another irrespective of where we come from, or tribe,, our religion, etc, the fool is asking that we hate the northerners instead.

Very very stupid write up I repeat.

Great write up

Op you make sense.. but say, southern unity i s death..and not practicable.

the hate is choking.. not only online.. that's reality.
it won't work..

reality: everyone to his tent..atleast we will learn to respect each other.

Basically, your point is that we should be drink coolade and let things be the way they are ?

Truth is bitter.
You can choose to act ostrich and keep your head permanently buried in the sand.

It is a fact that the Hausa Fulani , from pre independence, have always seen and treated Nigeria as their conquered territory, not as a united country in the same way the average Southerner has seen it.
Look at the history of Hausa Fulani leadership in Nigeria and see the repeating pattern of autocracy, NEPOTIST, sectionalism, economic retardation and degradation of democratic norms and values.
So, yesterday when a Niger Delta buffoon like Tonyebacanista, a supposedly intelligent chap, opened a thread to convince us that the North deserves to keep power in 2019 because they had allegedly been politically shortchanged by Acts of Providence, I was soooo nauseated, so enraged that I couldn't comment on the thread without possibly earning a suspension.

So yes, the article is 100℅ correct. The youth , aside from being completely ignorant of Nigerian history, are also devoid of critical thinking skills.
Nairaland has exposed the intellectual paucity the Nigerian youths who lack the courage for deep reflection, and prefer the path of least resistance to insult and bully their neighbors who pose No harm to them, while making it easier for predators , their oppressor to operate with greater confidence and ease.

Let say it again, anyone who thinks a bunch Northerners in Aso Rock, whether in the present dispensation or come 2019, 2023 or whenever, under this current federal system, will usher in unity, peace, economic progress and prosperity , is drinking a very strong drink of delusions.
History is the best witness.

Very stupid comment to say the least. You talk about "Northern Federal government", what about our respective state governments? What have they ever achieved apart from enriching themselves, their immediate families, and their horde of girlfriends? Or is the northern fed govt also responsible for their failures as well?

I take responsibility for my actions and don't attribute the result of same to my neighbors. Idiots should try to do the same. I stand to gain ABSOLUTELY NOTHING from hating the northerners. Our greedy politicians in a bid to consolidate their already fatal stranglehold on us are the ones promoting this "hate the north, they are responsible for your woes" gospel! And I won't be surprised if you are under their payroll.

Rubbish.

Some Stvpid afonja musslims will see everything wrong in this beautiful writeup all because they share the religion with some of those iddiots up north.

Yoruba muslins are the Major problem of southerners.
None those f00ls should quote me unless if you want to meet your miserable death so fast.

I take responsibility for my actions and don't attribute the result of same to my neighbors. Idiots should try to do the same. I stand to gain ABSOLUTELY NOTHING from hating the northerners. Our greedy politicians in a bid to consolidate their already fatal stranglehold on us are the ones promoting this "hate the north, they are responsible for your woes" gospel! And I won't be surprised if you are under their payroll.

Rubbish.

You're correct that no one gains anything by hating the North.
There is nothing hateful about my post nor the main article in this thread. We are dealing with facts.
And yes, the greedy southern politicians all go scrambling for crumbs at the center. But that itself is part and parcel of the Hausa Fulani conquest strategy.

As you can see for yourself, even with distorted federal system we run, the South still outpaces the north 1000 to 1 in economic development and all human development indices.
When Northern governors see the building of mosques as infrastructural developments, that is another pointer that the northern political elite should no longer be trusted with federal political power. Their feudal mindset is at odds with economic progress, equality and democracy.

Southern Unity died the day Azikiwe opted for forming of Govt with Balewa

Southern Unity was threatened the day Azikiwe convinced Ahmadu Bello not to support insertion of secession clause in the constitution mooted by Awolowo.

Southern Unity was thrown into the bin the day Arthur Nzeribe of ABN played active role in the annulment of June 12.

Southern Unity went into coma the day Daniel Kanu organised 1million man match for Abacha through YEAA, despite the persecution of Yorubas,

Ooogaaa! Stop bothering me about the north. I don't blame them for nothing. They build mosques, what do we build down here? Brothels and personal mansions! What is the difference?

Say whatever you like, our politicians are as wicked and corrupt and selfish as any Northern politicians you accuse of same.

You talk about our leaders going to recieve crumbs in Abuja and I ask, who receives more Federal allocation from the center, Northern states or Southern states? What have our governors done with the trillions they've collected over the years? Is what we have on ground even up to 10% of the monies they've received over the years? Why the hell should I blame the North for that? Isn't that total stupidity?


Hold your closest leaders accountable for your problems and stop blaming the north.

it isn't about hating northerners but standing up to them

Honestly,na u get sense pass. For d north,might is right and only superior violence can bring them to their senses. Lest we all forget,northern towns and emirate were founded on violence and warfare so they are everly proactive we it comes to wars.

That Charles ogbu is one Stupid idiot. Only a fool would keep attributing his failure to his neighbor. The "sons of Dan Fodio" or whatever, aren't responsible for whatever the south goes through, our useless and totally irresponsible leaders who know nothing but screwing eachother's daughters are responsible.

You want us to hate the northerners, right? When we are done hating them and in the end, drive them away, and we get our separate country, who do we turn around to hate? Or does the writer think the hate would just vanish into thin air?

Instead of asking us to love one another irrespective of where we come from, or tribe,, our religion, etc, the fool is asking that we hate the northerners instead.

Very very stupid write up I repeat.

This your observation sweet me pass my cigar!
