Blind Hatred Towards Igbos Is The Real Reason Nigeria Is Not Working by horsepower101: 1:11pm On Feb 02, 2018
Blind hatred makes a human being make irrational choices like voting for a dinosaur politician called buhari.

Igbos warned so many bipolar groups against voting for buhari but because of their blind hatred they didn't listen. Their main objective was to do anything that will hurt the igbos. They didn't even care if it hurts them too. They wanted to cut their noses just to spite their faces.

Some groups will knowingly hurt themselves politically but their joy is that as long as it stops igbos from progressing.

This is the type of mentality igbos have constantly dealt with in Nigeria. The average Igbo has to realize an age Long fact: Nigerians are more anti-igbo than pro-Nigeria. This is something to think about.

Your perspective is super myopic!
You put too much importance on yourselves.
Also the hatred was not spurn from Buhari's candidature.
It has always been there mutually, don't expect it to wane soon as you and your people are still playing the same card you have been playing since the civil war, blaming others without introspection or retrospection.
Get off your high horse, and be responsible for the hate you people bring on yourselves.

Igbos are very important for Nigeria to remain united. There is a reason that no matter how much Nigerias complains about igbos, once igbos say they want to leave and stay on their own, the same Nigerians start panicking and begging for unity.

Nobody is begging anybody, or is it Buratai that begged?

OP is spot on...a Yorubaa man said it here on Nairaland during 2015 election that he would rather suffer under Buhari knowing he will marginalize Igbos to stop their progress than to enjoy under GEJ surrounded by Igbos. Till this day I have never forgotten that comment; shows you how wicked these people are. Don't forget that Awolowo did exactly what he said.

Typical Afonja who thinks Igbos are his mate. If you are man enough, agree to separation as Igbos are pushing for, Walahi talahi, you will know who Igbos. You think Igbos are your mate? This is the kind of useless insult Igbos have received in this courtesy of Lord Luggard. You hide under One Nigeria with gross, inhumane marginalization of Igbos to drag feet with them. God didn't create every race equal. Israeli are smarter than all Arabs around them. Germans are gifted than all Europeans. So Igbos are no different as mentioned by Professor Sowell.

Op, you have just confirmed the trending comment that "it s.u.c.kk.s to be ....!

According to you, others abhor ibos yet the latter can't help but flock to the same regions they allege the indigenes hates their guts, in droves.

A significant number of your elders and leaders made their wealth outside your region, most especially in the regions where the locals supposedly wants to pull the ibos, down..

Very true. I see it every day in my discussions with Nigerians from the different tribes.

I have a very well enlightened and respected Yoruba friend with whom I have always enjoyed having discussions and debates on National issues .
During the GEJ era, this fellow was so rabidly anti GEJ. Every single day he had something disparaging to say about GEJ. He claimed to have an inside scoop of what was going on in ASO Rock. He mocked GEJ so mock that even I began to see GEJ through his eyes.

The funny is that he would always say to me " See how your brother is messing up ".
For him, Goodluck Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan = Igbo Man.

And I began to suspect that therein was the root of his hatred for GEJ.

Now fast to 2018, almost three yrs after GEJ's exit, and now that we know that 100% of his allegations against GEJ were pure lies, I am shocked beyond belief that he has very little criticism of the Buhari government, and even continues to blame GEJ and some veiled references to the Southeast as being responsible for Buhari's failures in governance.

He agrees that a united Nigeria is unworkable and should break up, but is anti Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB.
To him, Nigeria should stay as it is until Yorubas are ready.

So, at the end of the day I can't help coming to the conclusion he is more anti-Igbo than pro Nigeria.

Stop this nonsense about this or that crowd accommodating Igbos.
It is silly , irritating and factually incorrect.

To Accommodate means:

Definition of accommodate


accommodated; accommodating

transitive verb


1 : to provide with something desired, needed, or suited ·I needed money, and they accommodated me with a loan.



2 a : to make room for ·rebuilt the ship to accommodate the bigger containers


b : to hold without crowding or inconvenience ·a hotel that can accommodate about 100 people



3 : to bring into agreement or concord : reconcile ·Investors quickly accommodated themselves to the new market conditions.



4 : to give consideration to : to allow for ·trying to accommodate the special interests of various groups



5 : to make fit, suitable, or congruous


No one accommodates Igbos.
Igbos are mobile, agile and adaptive to whatever environment they find themselves, even in openly hostile environments.

Igbos do not go to anywhere to ask for special favors from any group.

If Nigeria is one country , then the issue of accommodation is meaningless and propaganda.

Being a citizen of Nigeria gives me the right to move , live and make a living in any part of Nigeria I desire. No person should say that they are accommodating me if you neither housing nor feeding me.

I have never heard of Igbos being given free parcels of land in any community in Nigeria.

Now, only people who think in shallow terms do not realise that Nigeria's development has been lopsided from day one.
Before Abuja as the federal capital, Every government agency, every driver of economic development such as the seaport, the international airport, every trade and professional association, every company headquarters were all based in Lagos. Therefore , Lagos and nearby cities were the only places that offered good employment prospects for professionals, tradesmen and commerce.
It is therefore not surprising that Igbos, perhaps the most mobile and adventurous group in Nigeria, flooded Lagos and other urban cities, especially after the civil war that devastated the economic backbone of the Southeast.

Lagos, and later the surrounding cities became the only game in town for young people all over the Southeast.

Now, I do not want to mention the contributions of Igbos to the economic development of the cities and communities that they have been migrating to since the end of the civil war. That's another topic for another thread.
