Ok we will prove you wrong. Also try and lighten your skin a bit, you look so dark coupled with the fatness.
Lol. Is this what you people try to resort to, after someone amicably engages you on your Jew shinama? Lol, very well. I'm a software engineer and I believe privacy is a long lost myth. So, I'm not concerned about anything you want to prove about me on the Internet.

Lol, if anything I think my skin is too light. I wish I were darker sometimes. Sigh. Black is beautiful.

Oh, ok. I don't remember Bamolowo, but I remember Katsumoto. His intellect stood out and his occasional tribalism was fairly level-headed and not virulent. I wonder how so many quality posters fled here, leaving many people who do nothing but shout "Igbo" and "afonja" upandan.
Katsumoto tribalism was not fairly headed. He was Awolowo-esque, always put Yoruba interests first and foremost, and he wasn't even subtle about this.
He was also hell bent on projecting Ndiigbo as villains and deserving of the atrocities we suffered during the northern riots and Biafra war itself.
Yes! He was intellectual in his approach, selectively picking out and posting articles that support his own opinions and views of things.
I remember he had a hand in the induction of Chinua Achebe into the hall of shame of NL,not very sure again.
He doesn't shout Igbos Up and down, but the views he propagated about Ndiigbo here were worst and more damaging than those who shout Igbos Up and down today.
He represented the last of SW unchallenged distortion of civil war narratives. He probably thought it was still the era when Ndiigbo left the Media opinion of those events at the hands of Yoruba controlled Ibadan-Lagos media propaganda machinery unchallenged.
Dede1 and ACM10 gave him a run for his money, they(Dede1 and ACM10) debunked Age long SW media propaganda against Ndiigbo centred around 1954-1970 events .

I admire Katsumoto intellectual prowess and tenacity, but as an Igbo, I couldn't stand his putrid Igbophobia. I for one don't miss him.
I miss Bamowolo though.

I don't see anything wrong if kanu claims that Igbos are jews just to get Israeli support for his biafra agenda. I am more interested in the election boycott of his movement in 2019. It will be very interesting.
1) Israel won't support a separatist movement in a country they have no conflict with. It would need to be a country like Syria or Iraq where they support the Kurds.
2) Even if they could support us, we are of zero strategic value to them, so they wouldn't bother. It won't be worth the hassle.
3) Even if they could and would support us, it would make no difference to us diplomatically, seeing as Israel themselves are an international pariah due to their activities in Gaza and the West Bank. Israel is the most opposed country in the UN and have only weathered that storm due to the constant intervention of the US to offer them diplomatic cover and support.
4) Embarrassing ourselves before the world with a fake Jew-claiming history that everybody laughs at doesn't help our legitimacy. It portrays the movement as an unserious cult. For this reason, outside his IPOB fans, Nnamdi Kanu will always be perceived as a joker.
5) Miseducating our children and feeding them lies is wrong. If you keep saturating your children with falsehoods, they turn out like hammerfc: children who hate their roots, feel inadequate and seek legitimacy and pride in themselves by claiming a fake identity. That is antithetical to a healthy development of a strong Igbo consciousness. It should be a thing of shame that while Yorubas for example take pride in the millions of people in Latin America and the Caribbean that identify with the Ifa tradition, some Igbos are there disgracing us claiming a fake ancestry to an alien race.

Don't get unsettled. I don't know about any argument. You are my friend on FB. I am only advising that you reduce your weight. But if you doubt us we shall publish your pictures here to prove to you that we are not mistaking you for another person.
Lol. You want to come and be disrespectful of my space by interjecting FB into this, talking about weight and skin color. If you are my friend on FB and you want to post things without my permission, I cannot stop you. As I said before, I believe Internet privacy is a myth, but I also believe in having respect for people. In this case, you are showing me that you lack such respect.

Oh, I certainly almost always disagreed with him. I'm talking more about the tenor of conversation. You could have a more substantive debate at the time than now where everyone just shouts "Igbo" and "afonja". I was around my late teens at that time, but I remember how much better the forum was. Not just the political forum. Even the religious forum that I used to frequent had better quality debates between atheists and Christians in particular.

What is wrong with having a dark complexion ?
Keep in mind that you are black, your parents and ancestors are black !
What kind of self hatred pushes you to tell a black person to lighten his skin and that he is too dark ?

You look so much like a mother. So leave this unnecessary back and forth argument and focus more on your family.
You seem to be taking yourself on a different tangent. I guess I'll leave you to it.

Energy? But for the past 72hrs you have been on this thread without sleep nor rest. Chinenye be very careful.
I have energy for many thing of my own desire, of which, Nigerian misogyny is not a part. Thanks. Good day.

That bastard is nobody else but Chino. his other moniker is osygafeo...
Thank you. I will keep that in mind, so I can refrain from entertaining those monikers. I want to be shocked, but I'm just more so disgusted that is how he wants to behave.

Can you explain to us how Kanu managed to escape only to reappear in Israel of all places? Also remember that Buhari openly supported the independence of Palestine so Nigeria is technically an enemy of Israel
