This pattern of thought always make me think that your kind do not know that the Americans, Indians, and Chinese travel as vast as the igbos. If you think staying in your own confine alone makes you better liken yourself to South Africans
Thanks

do you also call Ibadan brown roof monument, a development in southwest?

The scars on my body are the crests of my hard-work and sacrifices....

The brown roofs you see in Ibadan are the epitome of ancient civilization ahead of any other regions in Nigeria. Ibadan attained the heights of civilization ahead of any other region in West Africa.

Go to the developed parts of the world and see how they preserved their ancient structures and buildings. Yet, Ibadan is more of a power house than any region in the SE could ever be.

Long live Yoruba... Long live the supremacy of the SW! cool

Social Thought: MR. Olusegun Mathew Okikiola Aremu Obasanjo, GCFR, Ph.D. Speaks out on the Igbo Question

“Unfolding why Igbo are ahead of other tribes in Nigeria Former President of Nigeria, Chief Obasanjo has revealed reasons why Igbos are ahead of other tribes in Nigeria. It will be a task impossible to actualise for the Igbos, to follow the Yoruba’s Ideology. The Igbos are more republican by nature, which is why it is very difficult for you to tame such a tribe.

From the extensive research I did on the three major tribes, I find out that the Igbos are the most westernized, most enterprising, most astute, most dynamic, most intelligent (smart), and the most technically gifted tribe found among the black race. The Hausa/Fulani and the Yorubas have limitations. But an Igbo man doesn’t see any limitations.

An average Igbo man is highly competitive, unlike the Yoruba and the Hausa/Fulani. While the Yoruba and the Hausa/Fulani had kingdoms which enabled the British to infiltrate their territories easily, the Igbos on the other hand, had what could be called Chiefdoms” autonomous Communities. These structures made it very difficult to tame the Igbos.

It took the British just 9 months to tame the North and South West but almost 30 years to be able to tame the Igbos. The British had to send a team of anthropologists to the South to understudy the Igbo because, they (the British) acknowledged they hadn’t being up against a black race with such depth and intelligence coupled with the gut to confront the whites and learn from them so, so fast.

While a Tinubu, can have unrestricted influence over the Yoruba tribe, something you can only find mostly among blacks and some poor nations on earth today, an Igbo man can never be tamed by the ideology of one man unchecked, no matter how highly placed he or she is.

That’s why the Igbos are very successful no matter where they find themselves. They don’t believe in putting limitations on their path. You can only find such similarities among the Europeans, the Americans, and developed Asian tiger nations. A Hausa/Fulani man sees Kano as his world. A Yoruba man sees Lagos as his world. An Igbo man sees the world as his Village!”

Does it mean that Igbos can only cooperate with fellow Igbos in a free and fair planning and execution of a project?

Why do Igbos play down on others Intelligence?

Why are they always pompous where they should just be courageous.

Azikwe wanted to be Premier of the West while Awolowo was there. What a Contempt? And he still put an Ibo Man in the East as Premier.

Ojukwu caused the Civil War because he was selfish, arrogant and incorrigible to Awolowo's petitions to settle. Azikwe fraudulently abandoned The Ship of State and recklessly ran away.

Yorubas too cannot be tamed without compensation. Why can't The Igbos, with all their new inventions of new Cultures and Traditions, learn some compromise and integration of others ideas for a better and more progressive Civilization?

Obasanjo isn't cunning. Ojukwu was a brat.

Obasanjo opened the escape route to Cote de Voire to Ojukwu. When Ojukwu came back and was Special Assistant to Abacha, he didn't help Obasanjo who was suffering in Abacha's Gulag then.

Ihegiahe, COAS to GEJ was not that clever. Bokoharam chased him out of office. He contributed in no small way to the recalcitrance of Bokoharam till today.

forget all this bla bla bla ... When in Power in 1999, you once told Igbos to wait till 2050 before they will Rule Nigeria



2050? OBJ will be 113 years old then.
By the way, why are the Igbos, these Guy-Foxes, so desperate to rule Nigeria?


Buhari please grant full autonomy of Police, Resources and Elections Control to our existing 36 States. That's the only way to unite Nigeria and move forward.

No source, I trust Obasanjo can never say such things. If Igbos have anything to offer, they would have developed their region. Jonathan ruled Nigeria for 6years with Igbos majorly in his cabinet. We all know what happened. It was bad Jonathan govt that brought the existence of Buhari. Igbos are the worst human beings on Earth.
