Sleeping giant starves it's citizens without care. Why is it that the only people celebrating this border closure are those who supported this failed government?

Nigeria is a great country.

That's why I'm more pro-Nigeria than I'm sympathetic for Biafra.

A united Nigeria is market that will make the world stumble over themselves to get to us if the right policies are put in place.

I like patriotic people. But the saddest thing about Nigeria is tribalism. It is a challenge we have to overcome to succeed as a nation.

You cannot tell me the whole world doesn't know Nigeria is unique and special. Believe me, they know.

So what's the problem?

Imagine Americans abusing their country on a daily basis or the British? It is impossible to see. So the gods forbid a foreigner trying to learn about Nigeria comes to nairaland and read some people's diatribes about naija... The little respect don vamoose be DAT.

Because of disunity, I think our haters now know our weakness... That's why Nigerians are often targeted by other nationalities because they feel many of us in Nigeria don't know how good we look together.

Unity is our greatest struggle and might be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

GenBuhari:

Sounds like you are an Igbo like myself who is against fraudulent and evil IPOB agenda . Kudos to you for speaking up.

seankafor:
you just nailed it all.
That's why I love those Ghanaians.. they sometimes bypass reality and pushes their patriotism to extreme irrespective of who they are dealing with..
They are ready to defend their country to the bone marrow, whether they are right or wrong. You can even atrest to that with few of them on nairaland here.

Patriotism goes beyond many things..
The way people bash the president on front page threads..sometimes I avoid comments due to the kind of hate speech been decapitated there.. it's saddening.

There is a huge difference between criticism and hate speech

Awol1:


I must tell you something...

The few times I had the time to listen to Nnamdi KANU, dude's utterances were devoid of logic and right reasoning.

But even if he was logical, I think we as Igbos being entrepreneurial would enjoy a united Nigeria more than any other tribe.

The few times I hate Nigeria as Igbo, are when I see our terrible roads.

When I see some acts of marginalization against Igbos in govt parastatals and the armed forces.

And then when some northern Islamic elements starts to scheme to laud Islamic principles over us.

But these things will pass.

If we work more towards integrating ourselves into the affairs of this country rather than standing aloof, we will join in making policies that will make the things against us die a natural death.

Igbos are winners, why are we rather choosing to run away from the war of who controls the heart of Nigeria.

If fellow Nigerians can gather to say the worst things about naija who are they not to follow suite? And we will be there forming "only us can say bad things about Nigeria" It's a lie...

Unity is our greatest struggle and might be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

I don't know about bashing the President oh... He's not God and therefore can be bashed left, right and center if he's doing nonsense in power.
Buhari for me, is like the most divisive Nigerian living currently and hence one of the major problems of Nigeria.
I'm talking about love for country and unity. We are the same, one Africa is not impossible talkless of one Nigeria.

GenBuhari:

You nailed it.
We Igbos as entrepreneurs are the greatest beneficiaries of a united and powerful Nigeria. So the sudden agitation for Biafra is illogical and unnatural.

We Igbo have never been given a referendum to decide whether we want to Biafra or to remain.

Self appointed IPOB leader NK and his agitation is using huge funds from global powers to fund newspapers and social media campaigns to create impression we Igbos support him. The truth is that Igbos cannot care less about IPOB agitation, but their media campaign is gradually winning over some young misguided and ignorant youths using their usual mix of bigotted lies and propaganda.

There is little marginalisation of Igbos this is mainly media propaganda

Awol1:


Like seriously eh.

I never knew how illiterate most of our Igbo brothers are until last general elections when Nnamdi KANU asked them to boycott the elections.

I told them that they were aiding Buhari's return by boycotting elections but they argued in a lame way.

Finally the stupid Nnamdi asked them to go and vote when registration and card collections were over by months. Maybe he expected them to vote with their Biafran flags.

The north and the rest of Nigeria are still apprehensive of the Igbo because if the activities of somebody like Nnamdi KANU.

You are right about bashing that half living creature, Jonathan was bashed the world did not end, even the almighty Trump receives tonnes of invectives on a daily basis let alone a dullard and devisive element like Boo ha ree.
If Nigeria were working a notorious coupist and serial failure would not be our president taking into consideration the annals of Buhari's era as the head of state.
