lol, how difficult There was no Igbo nation before the colonial masters amalgamated Nigeria. The Benin kingdom, the Igalas and Ijaws captured Igbos and sold them to slave traders how much more the colonial masters.

Slave trade was all for all. When ovoranmwem was deposed like a pig after blabbing and even buried in strange land us that one civil service.

Maybe by now since Benin are involved in all wide lucrative slave trade business, Benin should have been new castle upon Tyne but the reverse is the case mud and tainted houses.

You should tell why you had to clown a Yoruba moniker to ask your foolish question even those with dead brain understand you are Igbo. I for a fact can bet my life on it. To your question no rejection is focused on the Igbo only figment of your foolish imagination allow you attribute things you are mere participant as main culprit so in the future you can twist the story on it tail.

Olanipekun1:
makes me think

day by day they're making it look like it's only igbos that rejected Ruga
last time I checked it was first rejected by middle belt but it seems that they're not talking about igbos only.

my question is
why only igbos?
does it mean that they don't take other tribe rejections serious?


please be civil in your decision

Thanks

Who do Igbos intimidate ? I do not understand that part n what tribe are you maybe your tribe is intimidated by Igbos but not the other two senior tribe to Igbos in Nigeria. Among the 3 main tribe in Nigeria Igbo come last in everything political and power so I do not understand you ?

valenu:
By the way, the warning from the Northern youths was directed to everyone but because it was only the Igbos that reacted to the threats, it looked like the threats were directed to them. That's why I am telling you that the Igbos are the strength of the southern Nigeria especially. Probably because they stand to loose more having the majority of the southern population in the north. Igbos are not bad. They are not evil. They are only intimidating. That's why they are hated. But those hating them can not do without them.

Ma Ifuro dimkpa, inu isi ego!

When you are done fooling your kinsmen wake them up.


Anambralstson:

You keep repeating the same rubbish which state outside Lagos is more productive than Anambra in your region Igbos control trade and commerce in Nigeria, that's is why they are in every corners of this nation and beyond, unlike other tribes, how many Yorubas have their investments in the North or Northerners investments in west outside Lagos, Chinese, and other foreign countries are in Nigeria doesn't mean they are less productive, go to Onitsha, Aba, Nnewi and coal camp Enugu to understand meaning of being productive, because most of you dumb misuse the word "productive".

You've got the point. You are absolutely right. If you know your history very well, Igbos were very intimidating and handling almost all positions in the very beginning of Nigeria. The intimidation caused the hatred for them. So, in order to checkmate them, they were reduced politically by giving them only 5 states and cutting parts of them to join other regions were they became minorities in those states. You may not agree with me openly but that's the truth. It's part of life. Probably their destiny.

You know that whoever is intimidating in a group or even in a class, the rest come together to bring that person down. That person is hated. Hope you understand.

Lol! You are funny or probably you don't know the history. Igbos don't have king and that's where you got it right. Because of their not having a central leadership, the colonial masters found it very difficult to penetrate them. They don't feel intimidated. It's a bitter truth. Learn your history well and even the reason for the almagamation of the north and south. I'm sure you don't even know why Lord Lugard in 1914 joined the two originally different protectorates of the British. The north and the south were two different protectorates. That's like two different countries.

Hope I have answered your question. Igbos are the threat to Nigeria that they were handicapped politically. That's why they were given 5 states and other parts of Igbos cut out to join the south south such as Delta, Rivers, Cross River and even Benue. Nigeria as a whole is afraid of the Igbos. Yoruba, Hausa and the rest tribes are afraid of the Igbos. But they can not do without the Igbos. You see irony?

Remove igbos from nigeria and see how the rest will automatically become slaves to hausa fulani. They threaten the igbos because they know that igbos are the only opposition they have. The north does not regard the yorubas as that much of a threat because at the end of the day, the yoruba moslems will side with the north. If yorubas were to have about 99% of christians like the igbos, then the north for dey hear am. The weakness of the south comes from yoruba moslems.

Yorubas are afraid of the igbos yet they flogged you mercilessly in Akure and since then, we no hear fiam from una.

Oso Abiola made una run like baby back to east in 911.

Fulani ransacked una for enugu only to result to fasting and prayers.

You self know you are just mocking yourself.

Lame...

The Igbos didn't send Awolowo (ex-convict) to Calabar prision?

The Igbo didn't kill Abiola and Kudirat?

The Igbos didn't kill Bola Ige?

The Igbos didn't send Fela to jail.

The Igbos didn't imprison Obasanjo?

The Igbos didn't imprison pa Ajasin?

The Igbos didn't humuliate General Oladipo Diya?

The Igbos didn't send you god, Bola Tinubu to exile?

The Igbos didn't imprision Ganiu Adams, Yorubas onakankafo?

The Igbos didn't fight you Yorubas in Ile Ife, Ketu, Idi Arab, Shagamu, Ajegunle..

..yet you have major problem with the Igbos than those who did all those. Name one Yoruba leader that didn't test punishment from the northerners and you didn't do anything. That's why they don't regard you.

You don't need state government approval to buy land from individuals in the state. Let them go to land owners and buy land. No body can stop that. But to have the government allocate land for them is not just fair. This is their private business. Try and get my point.

Go and read about the ABA women riot.

The colonial masters couldn't control the Igbos because igbo enweghi eze. Igbos don't have king. Every man in igbo land is a lord to himself. Even the warrant chiefs that were appointed weren't respected. The white men handed over power to the northerners because their rulers were naturally subservient in nature.

crap. Can you threatened a man that will beat u up?? North will never dare only two regions in Nigeria cos they know it will be the end of the country


1. South south region- cos south south region provides 90 % crude oil earnings for the country. That's why south south have gotten 90% of what they clamour for .they got Niger Delta ministry, Niger Delta development commission, amnesty e.t.c

2. South West Region-. The ,economic ,revenue and Entertainment capital of Nigeria today. The only region that can match north politically. Obasanjo and Tinubu re the most powerful politician Alive in Nigeria.


Igbos have benefited more from North cos of their huge investment in North. They will always use political instability to threatened their investment in North in order for Igbos to succumb to their wish.

If North separates from south today .

Yorubas , and southern minorities have Big investment to worry about in North

No, not all Igbos are millionairs but they are mostly hardworking and they start from somewhere.
Those guys you are seeing on the road may already own houses in their villages.

There's this my Yoruba doctor friend that calls me his son. He loves coming to my shop for gists whenever he's free. He said he loves the business nature of the Igbos and I replied him:
Doctor, let me tell you. When you are real with yourself, you won't find it too difficult. I told him that everyone was born equal even business wise. And why the Igbo man goes for business is because, he sees himself as not having the connection to work in most big companies. And so, the igboman embraced the truth and became his own boss knowing fully well that all these small small salaries companies offer him would not help him actualize his dreams. The hausas and Yoruba are more connected in Nigeria than the Igbos. So, the igboman begins to lookout for where he would be useful.
During devaluation, the salary earners suffer the most cos their salary is not increased but the igbo man sells according to the current economic situation. If price goes up, he increases his own price and that's where business is better.
