tamdun:

Exactly, let everyone fight for their people, now stop blaming yoruba for everything u failed to achieve

Tell your brothers to stop opening thread looking for southern unity

tamdun:

The west did not stop u, ask yourself, what major step did your people take to get their biafra (pls don't bring Ipob into this), u have rep, senators, governors, pressure them to speak out instead of blaming yoruba people

There is no way you can talk about secession without talking about Ipob. They have successfully created massive awareness amongst the people and also among other tribes. The reps and senators you spoke about wont support it openly. BTW, most are planted by the aggressors. You saw how the Governor of Imo state was brought into power. So, It wont come from them. But know that they are in support of division of the country.

I believe, henceforth, we will not have much opposition from you guys based on your comments here.

The souths are their own problem. Am done talking.

That is yoruba and their problem.

see mumu....u think u are deceiving anybody with claims of coming from SS? Mugu

Its only a yoruba man that will think that after stealing SS oil for years and polluting their lands
After obasanjo massacred a whole village in bayelsa
After yoruba ganged up against the first ss president
Then ss will love u guys more than igbos

They already showed u by aligning fully with pdp that they dont want anything from afonja

U sir is from abeokuta...be proud of that with ur tiger claws

The north uses this division, or half backed truth to push the igbos and yorubas anywhere they want them, meanwhile if we come together we could do same as the north is more fragmented than the south.


For centuries we have lived together, intermarried till date, defended ourselves when we are in abroad, like two powerful horses on a race, we challenge ourselves for greatness .


Awolowo, Azikiwe is gone, ojukwu , Adekunle is gone...


The black race depends on these two tribes (and there cousins)

Like I said I am sick and tired of this tribalism, if it is jazz /juju the north is using I am free from it.

jacksonkennedy:
In 1914, Lord Lugard amalgamated 2 regions (not 3). Fast-forward to 1940, the 2 regions have been split to 3 because of shallowness of our southern leaders. By 1964, the south has split further to 3 regions, making the north stronger and more powerful.

All these happened because of Igbo Vs yoruba rivalry. But why the rivalry?

Let me ask Igbos

Do you think Azikiwe would not have accepted Gowon's offer to keep the east in Nigeria and fight the yorubas in exchange for presidency? Really? The same Azikiwe that was carrying one Nigeria on his head? Why blame Awolowo and yorubas for what you know Azikiwe would have done?

Did Obasanjo (the only yoruba man so far to be president) not carry igbos along?

Did many igbos not vote APC in 2015 and 2019? So why make it seem only yoruba voted buhari when many Nigerians were yearning for change.

Did Atiku and Obi not win 47% votes of South West even when our son Osinbajo was on ballot plus massive APC rigging?

Let me ask yorubas

Will you love igbos and sing their praise if it was you that lost 3 million people in their hands? Remember that those 3 million people were not involved in the politics that led to the war.

Did Igbos not give over 40% of their votes to Abiola in 1993? Why blame them for what happened to Abiola? Was Earnest Shonekan not the president after Abiola? What did he do to bring us justice? Was Oladipo Diya not Abacha's VP? What did he do to correct the injustice?

Did igbos not vote en mass for Obasanjo in 2003 when they could have gone with Buhari and their son Okadigbo?

Has yorubas not accommodated igbos in the west? And have igbos not proven to be reasonable neighbors?

Why do we hate each other so much and can't even push a common agenda since 1914? What exactly did we do to each other that was so bad and unthinkable?

I need reasonable comments here. I don't need anybody to come here to analyze my ethnicity

Where do you get that 3 million figure from.? You folk love victimhood so much you have to embellish it.
Whatever the number how are Yoruba to blame?
Why do you cowardly transfer your bitterness to Yoruba ignoring those that slaughtered you like goats in the North?
Igbos voted for Abiola.?

What kind of liar are you?

There were two candidates in the election Abiola and Tofa .
You chose Tofa and here you ard telling us rubbish
No one blames Igbos for what happened to Abiola another lie
In 1998 Alex Ekwueme contested against Obasanjo and lost a humiliating vote. So do not come here to tell us you supported Yoruba in voting for him.
In 2003 you claim you voted Obasanjo probably because your politicians did what you always do ,act like opportunists. WE SAW NO EVIDENCE that you voted Obasanjo though if yo did not it would have made no difference

The powers that be decided they would rather hand over to Obasanjo than Falae and your politicians opportunistically keyed in to the PDP train

How you can then try to dress that up as Igbo support for Yoruba is astonishing.

Part of the problem with Igbos is intrinsic dishonesty. You tell preposterous lies that are so manifestly false without any discomfort. How can anyone relate with that.

The truth is Yoruba never hated you. You are the ones that always were envious and spiteful of Yorubas.
If the Yoruba hated you they would not gave collected rent for your houses in Lagos and returned same after the war to you.. Would You have done that if roles were reversed?
That gesture captures the Yoruba attitude to you and anyone who comes to live among us. The Nupe have lived among us for centuries, ditto the Ijaws. You are the ones that arrive yesterday and think you are going to take over

.. How did you repay them after they handed over your rent and property? More envy, more lies. Lies about Awolowo, Lies about twenty pounds,lies about Indigenization decree.
By law they could have seized your property as the Ikwerre did in Port Harcourt .Did you ever publicly acknowledge this or show gratitude?


Throughout all elections in history including the June 12 election you always sided with the Fulani. Did the Yoruba ever ONCE challenge your choice? No we respected it All the time you did that it was clear opportunism to remain with the winning team.
The one time in our history when we allied with a Northerner in 2015 you unleashed all manner of abuse on us for doing something you have ALWAYS DONE. With one difference we did it from opposition with no guarantee of success whereas your character is to align with what you believe to be a certified winning team to eat food that is done

You ask if you have been good neighbours. You have not been.Everything Buhari is doing today that we call nepotism is what Zik did in the first republic when he formed a coalition with Balewa.

In the early 60s,A Medical doctor Dr Sylvester Anieke was employed at UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN as some kind of research fellow. He had claimed that he had a Dsc from Toronto . It turned out that he had forged it and was forced to resign. After that Zik appointed him his personal doctor and sent him back to UI as head of the governing Council.

Recently ,last year another Phd scandal at FIIRO involved a guy called Chima Igwe. He claimed to have a Phd from University of Abomey in Benin Republic. This was a lie . He had not completed the programme when he claimed. Normally he should have been sacked and prosecuted . What happened ? Ogbonnaya Onu the minister turned deaf ears even when the staff came out to protest publicly

You lack integrity and are dyed in the wool liars

We do not hate you but we know you hate us and for years many of us were oblivious to that.

Now we know exactly how you feel and we are waiting for you to step out of line. Then you will really see the other side of us

@OP,

What I think was the problem at least from 1999 to date, was that the return of democracy and the flow of uncensored information have opened the eyes of the people. As a result, the East want to secede from Nigeria, but they are being resisted by the West. Notice that the most visible anti-secessionists on Nairaland are the Yorubas. The NC has even aligned with the East through PANSIEC. The only problem now is the Yorubas. Unfortunately, like a people who are bent on self-destruction, the Yorubas refused to see the true agenda of the North. You saw how LASG hurriedly banned both Marwa and Okada citing accidents and nuisance as reasons. But the real reason was a credible intelligence on the security threat posed by the influx of Fulanis from all over Africa enabled by the President.

I once voiced my support for the East to exit Nigeria at my place of work, guess what, the Yorubas almost lynched me. From then on, they started calling me Ipob even when I am not a member of Ipob. The Yorubas have been the ones shouting the most on issues pertaining to division of Nigeria. But this ought not to be, the Yorubas can survive and have a great country without the East. They are great administrators and forward thinking people. You need to see how they are transforming Lagos with private investments. You saw the way they handled the issue of Amotekun.

Did Igbos think Buhari stood a chance against Obasanjo?

Didn't Obasanjo reward igbos by giving them major roles in his administration?

Did Yorubas not vote Jonathan ahead of Buhari and a Yoruba man in 2011.

Did Jonathan not pay us back with insults ?

Ordinarily one should ignore you and your foolish lies but if not answered gullible people might believe you

That thread is a living reminder to the hatred you represent

Are you saying the mighty Igbos can not singlehandedly fight for it own independence because of afonja media n agbero ?

Pls clarify so others Nigerians can see you beat your chest with nothing to show your bragging is nothing but noise from lazy nitwit that can not save itself except the true mighty Yoruba come to your rescue.

Haramslayer:


The West has used the enormous power of her media to demonize the fight for independence. Even, a casual mention of secession generates so much passion from them. BTW, the issue of Nigeria's division is not something that will happen in parliament. It will be like the CAR, they will keep committing genocide on small communities till it gets to a boiling point when the people, even though not armed like the aggressors, will rise up and resist. Other tribes who are fed up with the genocide of these people will join hands with the minority and resist them. You can see Southerners speaking out for the oppressed people of Southern Kaduna, Benue and Jos.

The unfortunate thing is that the once proud race that built massive empire that span into Dahomey has now been hijacked by area boys from Bourdillon who put personal interest above the interest of their people. They now think its OK to look away from genocide because its not our people.

Yoruba see igbos in worse shade. They are despicable souls foolish enough to disregard succession clause which guarantees freedom whenever the need arises. They are pathetic set of inhuman beast that believe Yoruba should go to war n bring back them freedom. Isn't it baffling a tribe can be despicable to such an extent ?

gidgiddy:


The issue is very simple, we are incompatible people. We are just people that Lugard 'forced' into a union in 1914. How the Igbo man sees things is not how Yorubas see things. Most Igbos see Yorubas as two faced, loud mouthed cowards who cannot be trusted while most Yorubas see Igbos as untrustworthy, conniving, money minded bigots.

Both tribes will never be politically united. It was a big mistake bringing Yorubas and Igbos together in one country, it was a union of pure disaster

You don't get your secession by abusing Yorubas online, you push your secession agenda to the national assembly. If you want it, follow the proper channel. I am Yoruba, I have spent all my life in the East, I attended Government College Umuahia, I have Igbo friends, my woman is Igbo. But its not so cool when you keep attacking others. The truth is, an average Yoruba man is busy living his life, he doesn't care about Igbo secession or not. Then Kanu came into the picture with all those uncouth stories about the Yorubas. Live and let love, stop denigrating others, no Yoruba man is preventing you from having your desire country, the Yoruba man you keep insulting is not the national assembly. Follow the right channel, pursue constitutional amendment that will help you achieve your desire goals.

Igbos can't tell anyone what anyone should do just as no one can tell you to stop Ipob.

Leave Yoruba muslims alone
Their Yoruba Christian brothers do not see them as slaves to the north .
Why you refuse to accord them basic respect and then expect the Christians amongst them to give you support beggars belief
I always try not to get involved with all this tribal talks, but you sounded very disrespectful calling my Muslim aunties, uncles, cousins slaves and I can never support anything you stand for.
You have disrespected my grandfather's lineage, and I would be psychotically mad to even listen to whatever you have to say, despite being raised a Christian.
Perhaps it's time to change your approach, and learn to show basic respect for other people's decisions even if it doesn't align with yours.

If Buhari gets called out for manifest misgovernance, the smart money is on the likelihood that the fellow who would elect to proffer incoherent defense for him would be Yoruba. The rest of Nigeria, including Buihari's kith and kin are unanimous that Buhari has massively underpeformed...

Nigerian politics is hinged on gentlemen agreement that power would rotate among the traditional tripods on which the Nigerian state stands.

There was never any form of opposition to your freedom beside that you cooked up in your head.
What will not happen is Yoruba won't secure Igbos freedom simply because u wanted it. We rather stay out of the fight, if after you slug it out with the North we decide to stay in one Nigeria or form our Odua Nation it is solely left to us.

Traditional Tripod? What is that? You exaggerate your importance.
Gentleman Agreement?

Who were the parties and when was this signed
Your psychology is funny because there is no more glaring case of self deception

So the argument is that Yoruba are the biggest obstacle to an Igbo presidency?
The biggest obstacle is the Igbos themselves. Next to that is the Hausa/Fulani who will never let it happen.
The Yoruba position is we are your competitors anytime the position comes south we will compete just like Ekwueme did but if you were not cowards the greater share of your hatred should be for the Hausa/Fulani
Instead you "identify with the aggressor" a pitiable case of Stockholm Syndrome.

Your imagined gentleman agreement is another of your infantile fantasies. There is no Tripod. You are not that important to anyone

Your task is to convince other Nigerians that the can trust you more than the Yoruba.
Surely that is a minor thing for the great Igbo people?
