Yes, an Igbo indeed. Probably an Igbo from Ijebu Igbo.

Who ever is running that moniker is not good at this impersonation business at all, he is a learner.

I also refuse to believe that's a woman.

Stop talking through both sides of your mouth. Leave Ndiigbo alone and face your Yoruba people.
Go and masturbate over your tribalistic mindset, I believe in one Nigeria, after all the likes of Russia, Italy and USA are made up of so many states and even countries, they still have peaceful co existence, people like you, are the tumour in this country and they need to cut you away.

Your people are racists and ungrateful elements. When I was in a regimental institution some years ago, I had read so many books about the coups in Ghana and Nigeria, but later schooling in your land on study leave made me to understand your people better. It is better to give you quit notice out of Nigeria.

You are so selfish. Nothing is good except it is your people. No actor / actress or businessman or footballer or musician is good except it is from your area. Rice mills investment in Kebbi is nothing to you but a poultry farm established by your brother can take 20 pages of comments on nairaland. Establishment of petrochemical & refinery by a Nigerian businessman attracts a lot of condemnation by your people but you fought government as a people some years ago to protect your brother importing cement to repackage while others invest to produce locally.

Anybody who made Forbes nomination must be insulted on nairaland because they are not your people, but you soon forgot that establishment of refinery at Lekki FTZ is a wastage because electric motors are being rolled out when we are appreciating local petrol / diesel vehicles being produced in your region by an investor. You are the greatest traitors.

I think Afenifere , OPC and those crude talkative like FFK & Fayose need to situp. I had expected one of them to reply Prof ABC Nwosu while attacking Awolowo to defend the book 'There was a country' written by Prof Chinua Achebe few years ago, none of them did. I responded but not satisfied. Those making the money using the Yoruba as a coverage are well positioned to respond

How can we be racist towards you when we're from the same race as you?

You are not Igbo. That's the point. I don't give a dead rat if you believe in ten Nigeria or one Million Nigeria.

Stop impersonating and mis representing my people. That's all.

You are not from Delta Igbo, and your are also not from Delta, seeing how bad you think of Urhobos.
I have no doubt where your kind are found.

You're not an Igbo woman. How many Igbo people do we see in this day and age spelling "Igbo" as "Ibo". Throughout my time on Nairaland, I've only really seen non-Igbos doing this undecided. Ikenna0b come and see this "we the South-East Igbo" fraud here. Nzeogwu was a full-blooded, handsome Igbo man and I'm proud to be from the same ethnic group as him.
I am a Nigerian, first of all I am a human, that's what matters, I don't hate any tribe, because with my level of exposure, I have been privileged to relate with people from various ethnicity and also I have lived in the whole zones, we need to breed an healthy environment for our future generation free from tribal sentiments and I am an advocate of one . so ngozi be proud to say you are a Nigerian first.

I swear this region called Yoruba is just too full of tolerance and forgiveness



once again I thank you lord for making me a child of this region and in my next world if possible, if Nigeria will still be your option for me, I'll still like to be a Yoruba

I, and many other Igbos, do not want or need your support for our independence. All we ask of Ndi Yoruba is to stay out of our business just as your forefathers should have done in the civil war.

Those chanting "we are better off united than divided" are poor students of history and saboteurs and profiteers in this rudderless contraption called Nigeria.


(2)
The igbos must be given a chance to aspire to emerge future president of a united Nigeria. Diversification of means of income in Nigeria must be roundly exploited and bit just existing on pages of dailies and many more anomalies

The two statements above are from one writeup. The first called Nigeria a "contraption" while the second demands for an Igbo President for Nigeria; a contraption, this time dubbed "united" Nigeria...

Your demand is legitimate (and I sincerely wish it happens in our lifetime) but you (Igbos) cannot yet realise this because your people are inherently individualistic, clannish, and selfish and democracy is a game of numbers and deals. Heck! Even the current IPOB uproar is fueled by same selfishness (we, me, us, Igbo people, our land).

Nigeria is not a contraption, you're so wrong there, she is only let down and disgraced by her people but it is not gonna be for ever, she will get it right one day and rise again and we'll get a clever Igbo President or an Efik or Ogoja President or an Igede President if he/she wins a clean election. Amen.

No, get ur facts right . It's the other way round. The Hausas and Yoruba were the first to call for secession even right under the British rule.
Azikiwe diplomatically united all (Awolowo and bello) and coined the "one Nigeria" slogan . He asked for it to be put in the constitution after which the British agreed to . Then, A call for secession became treason.
Why do you like to revise history so much?

http://thenewsnigeria.com.ng/2017/06/my-opposition-to-secession-zik/

When the 1954 constitution conference started, my good friend, Chief Obafemi Awolowo tabled a motion to the effect that in the new constitution, provision should be made that any state which feels like seceding should do so. I was opposed to it and said ‘no’ and said that once we have a federation, we are indivisible and perpetual.

That was when we began to use that expression – ‘The Indivisibility and perpetuity of the federation’ – and that to secede would amount to treason. And so, a debate ensued.

So a full day was given to Chief Awolowo to make his points. He spoke brilliantly as a lawyer. He made his points why secession should be incorporated in the constitution. He cited the case of the Soviet Union which is a federation, and that secession is written there so that any state in the Soviet Union can secede at will. He also cited the case of Western Australia and eventually he finished his case and was applauded.

Ngozi I have many reasons to be proud of Nigeria, my blood is green and white and I won't change it for any country. So many people out there are looking for a country to call theirs, so many slaves out there are trying to trace their origin, while I know mine and you think I shouldn't be proud of it? I don't know your level of education or exposure but believe when you step outside the shore of this country , you will understand the importance of nationality no matter how good or bad .

This isn't the first time I'm reading this story.

All I know is ,no matter how saintly Banjo is painted , he had skeletons in cupboard and that was why he and Ifeajuna were executed.

The whole Biafra actualization wasn't based on truth . It has always been a clear case of greedy humans trying to steal power for themselves . Ifeajuna tried it too many times but got caught . If ojukwu wasn't smart enough, he would be mudered by the notorious Ifeajuna without blinking an eye.

Ojukwu refused to heed to the advise of the elders (maybe a quest for power or a true justice fighter) but he went into a war anyways .......
Ojukwu realized his mistake years after and rebuked a second war but here we are again ...
Some1 who didn't witness the war , he wasn't among the kids that were starved, he didn't go through the hardship of the nation cos he spent his life being the rich son of a king and lived his life in the UK.
This man woke up , read some books and he decided to be famous !
He wants to experience what happened before his birth , he wants to take his tribe to the muddy road once again .
He is refusing to take advise of the elders again just like Ojukwu did to Azikiwe .
He is dragging the un-ambitious along in his stupidity !!
Call Kanu to order!!!
A call or secession is treason !!
Azikiwe begged for it in the constitution
u sound like a mother... i can guess your age, u re well above 50 or close to 60. thanx for joining us to educate all these ipob yoots / loots.

Stay out of your business when that albino hunchback called Kanu is coming to Lagos? Have you forgotten that it was when your fathers advanced on Ore that started their misery.

Yorubas own you lot, you're our property.

The Rivers people seized your brick and mortar property, Yorubas seized your political and economic future.

If Biafra will not be allowed to be then we all as a people need to sit down and chart a new course that will swerve this direction of empowering a particular region (Northwest especially) from being too powerful above other region.

Diversification of means of income in Nigeria must be roundly exploited and bit just existing on pages of dailies and many more anomalies. These are not too much to ask for! Thanks
"The Igbos must be given a chance to aspire to emerge future president of a united Nigeria," after their IPOB foot soldiers have roundly insulted, derided and vilified members of other ethnic groups, whose votes would be crucial to getting them the presidency? How interesting! shocked sad

I don't believe in nation building with Arewa Oduanistanis, anymore than a Frenchman believe in nation building with neighbouring Germans.

Fences( borders for Nations) , make for good neighbours.

I believe in Nation building, Igbo nation building, that involves uniting all Igbo speaking people in SE, Enu-ani, Oyigbo, Benue, Cross Rivers, and beyond, into one formidable progressive monilitic nation, in the mould of the likes of Japan and Germany.
