BigSarah:

They're too loquacious and excessively sentimental

Do you realize no matter how nice you try to sound or be, the Yoruba and Awusa-Fulani people aren't ever going to like you. Best you can get is smile in your face and look at you with scorn at the back.

As detribalised, polished, suave and urbane as Ojukwu was, they never liked him or for whatever he stood for. He's still hated by those people even in his grave. The story wont be different with you either. My one cent... Never try to impress them. It makes you look like you forever seek validation from them. It shouldn't be. We're Igbo people. We reverence no man but God and God alone.

Be who you want to be and leave IPOB people alone. They're being who they want to be. They will always be hated by Nigerians no matter how nice they try to be.

This is what some of us have been saying. Igbos are too hateful and clannish to be fair to others or carry them along equitably.

Not many Igbos are liberal or tolerant enough to preside over the affairs of Nigeria that is multi-religious and ethnically very diverse.

been liberal is a sign of mental disorder..

stop fooling yourself. Arabic is the language of Islam. Muslims use Arabic for prayers and also pick Arabic names to distinguish believers from the so called unbelievers. You can hardly separate Islam from arabism. for Muslims, Isa is a prophet. for Christians, Jesus Christ is the son God. Any Christian answering Isa doesn't not accept Jesus as the Son of God and therefore not a Christian. I also preach this among our Yoruba Muslims since kumuyi, adeboye and oyedepo are engrossed in playing politics and building universities for profit. Muslim view of Biblical figures significantly alters what those figures truly represent.

you are either confused or not educated.
Former governor of kaduna State name was Ibrahim Yakowa and he died as a Christian, I have pastors that are bearing Yusuf,etc. And you shamelesly stated that such pastor has never accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and savior?
Maybe your life is just within your village vicinity, please try and travel to different vicinities so that you will be educated.

Stop showing your ass. So an Arab Christian would name his child Abraham and not Ibrahim, right? I had a half-caste Nigerian/Arab friend a long time ago (the mom was Arab). He told me he was to be given a particular Arab name (can't remember the name again, but the type your ilk would call a Muslim name). The maternal grandma rejected the name, saying it was too common among Arab Christians.
So because we use English in church Brandon is a Christian name, right? I've read a lot of dumb stuff on this sub, but this trumps them all.

Ooni:
I don't think they stopped him from practicing his religion. what I saw them saying was that he wasn't a true muslim. He joined only request money from Northerners for erecting mosque which he never built.

Moreover some of them even said he mixed mixed "Yusuf" which is for muslims with "Chi" which I think means God almighty in Ibo languge which made God to strike him in kogi.

I don't know which of these claims is true but I have lived with ibos in Lagos and can tell you they give no damn which religion you practice. Pls let's focus more on our issues before we start sounding someway.

lol

An IPOB like you is so shameful of carrying your Igbo identity.Is it so bad and shameful to be Igbo?

Yusuf is the Arabic equivalent of the Hebrew name, Youseff.

Joseph is the anglicized version of the same name.

Ooni:
what is it?

MinorityOpinion:
Hate, destruction, propaganda, that's ipob work, very intolerant.

Aboki ,no room for Islam se/ss

Lol..opc killing people is civil? And ipob protesting is not civil right? Opc that stopped igbos from voting in Lagos is civil chai...

ThatFairGuy1:

One is civil the other is not. Igbos are bunch of touts

Are Hausa Christians Arabs?

Where do you think their support for Trump is coming from? I have never seen a group of people that hate Islam like ipob. Even on BBCs facebook page, they stand out with their nasty comments against muslims and their disgraceful support for Israel. Once you see someone writing "God bless Israel", "God bless trump", "muslimes are... " etc, there is a 99% chance that the comment is coming from an ipobian.


One thing they don't understand is that all these things will come back to haunt them. Even those within the SS regions don't show this amount of hatred.

Dhur,...it is already haunting them!

That's why they are clamouring for all regions to 'stepdown' for them in 2023.
They know they are the least electable region in ds country as we speak due to their intolerance and hatred for others.....and even themse!lves as can be seen in d death of this Muslim igboman.

The guilty conscience is already setting in.
They've laid their beds tey-tey, they shd gladly lie on it!

If what the yorubas and hausas, mostly the muslims here always say about the igbos and the very mean insolence they exhibit towards any thread that has to do with the igbos and the attack and evident hatred, are all yardsticks to go by, Then One thing is sure. Pure Jealousy.

Like it or not, The south east remains one of the Most religiously, societally and existentially tolerant regions in nigeria.

I have hardly been keen about commenting here but most of the yorubas -considering that one will assume they should be more educated not to make some unsettling remarks they make here- are myopic and lousy because they don't travel. If not, you would know that some hausa people run to enugu and anambra for refuge when there is problem in the north.

It is almost a taboo for an hausa or a Yoruba Muslim to date not to talk of marry an Ibo man. But check your chart, Igbo girls have been more married to the Yoruba guys because religion nor tribe has never been a problem to an Igbo father except the individual involved is of a questionable personality.

I read somewhere here that Igbo people are too insulting and I just laughed because the idiots that made that remark probably are from ibadan- The land of bad mouth, foul language, Lying girls, promiscuous men and women- and they are ignorantly talking. Set awon elepon blue.

When was the last time you heard of Christian's burning a church in the East ? But I don't think I need to tell any Nigerian with brain of the number of churches and Christian's that have been burnt respectively in the north.

Yab Igbo people all you want, They don't care. No tribe can be more enterprising than them. Both young and old. Goodbye

No wonder they want "Igbo only" as candidate come 2023,I fit bet my balls,hausa people will not vote for Igbo candidate,u hate other tribes and you expect love in return?

Nonsense people, happy for d death of some one becus is an igbo Muslim, I hate anything ipod becus they are fill with hate.

Moreover,Igbos living in Yorubaland will be different of course,due to exposure to the Yoruba cultur,and are generally a far cry from those awful creatures living in the SE

Can't find anywhere in my write-up that mentions Hausa Christians.

They have themselves to blame. I don't know about Yorubas but with the way I'm seeing things, a Hausa man would rather sleep at home than to vote for an Igbo president. And this wasn't the case before 2015

This is esssentially what it boils down to with Igbos. They hate and reject everyone yet want to be loved and accepted by others.

They always demand from others what they are not willing to give i.e tolerance , liberal society and level playing field etal.

Same as they jubilate the death of this Igbo Moslem, there is also an episode Igbos commented hatefully because a Hausa dare seek election into a political office in ala Igbo. Yet they are first to demand to govern Lagos and shout "one Nigeria" when issues concern their usurper overzealousness.

Best thing is to let Igbos have their Biafra, itself a hate project, and keep them out of Nigeria.

What would you expect from the Children of hate?

omenka:
Where is the human rights and freedoms these people pretend to espouse? Isn't anyone free to practice any religion of their choice anymore?

Why such HATRED? A BROTHER dies and you are ecstatic simply because HE IS A MUSLIM.

This is just terrible.

Is it too difficult for you to understand that we're not the same people? You're terrorists and we're not, so how can we cohabit?

PVision2020:

When will you be proud of your Igbo heritage?
When did it become a crime/shame to be called Igbo?

When will you start to accept truth? Must everyone be a terrorist like you just because they finds themselves in the same geographical hemisphere with you?

Tell this to your Igbo legislators and political leaders who accept administrative roles from a "terrorist" State.

While at it, make your stupid argument to the millions of Igbos willingly migrating to and living in the States and regions of "terrorists" with no interest in returning to ala Igbo.

What do you call those Igbos then and what does that say about your retarded statement?

You and the many IPOBians out there like you are the real terrorists no better tham Boko haram or ISWAP boys.

which of our cultures? don't day that o

Do you know how many times yorubas have clashed with Hausa Muslims here in yorubaland? That's more than 12 bloody clashes since 2015. This is despite the fact we have many Muslims in yorubaland that should blend with the north. how many times have Ibos clashed with us despite their bravery and our acts of aggression towards them?. Do you know how many court cases we have concerning hijab here in southwest? how many times have Ibos clashed with the Hausa's since 2015 in their iboland? not more than 3 times despite sharp differences. Even the Hausa community admitted that the ipob have never attacked them. Pls we are not any peaceful. We were the only ones that retaliated and looted shops in Ibadan and Lagos despite the fact that Ibo businesses were major targets in south Africa, yet they kept their cool in the east.

if you say we like being seen as respectful, i will agree but peaceful is a no no.

it would have been worse it we were brave as them sef.

And your problem is hypocrisy and the inability to look in the mirror and see what you and most of your people really are.

This is why Biafra will never happen. It is an idead espoused by those who are united by hate and intolerance yet are always happy to lie to themselves.

The reason why you think in your nomadic reasoning that Biafra will not come is that you think that it's a gift that will come from you terrorists. Just wait0
