SpecialAdviser:
Exactly. I have a feeling Oshiomole is an enemy of Edo state. This dirty fight will cost money and whoever wins will pay back from Edo purse.

Not good at all for the masses.

My friend is already a free and fair election.. You people have lead Obaseki to Golgatha now you are changing mouth. What ever he see is part of the bravery you guys are hailing him for. Shebi Ambode is s. I unit for cowardice let Obaseki face every this with his s. I unit of bravery.. You want APC to fold hand and watch him have his way.. You cheered his every move from going against the party to not inaugurating elected members now they waited for the right time to strike you are crying.. I have told you guys the rest of Nigerian are not like you people who act under brash emotions without thinking.. Edo is not abia neither is it in Igboland.. The rdolites waited patiently for this time to strike now the tactless ones are now asking for reprieve with rigging.. Did you not know that he could be rigged out when you encouraged him to leave his party and go and spend billions in tax collectors party? Una never see anything yet..

TruthinAction:
Political affiliation has blinded Edo people who still support APC when they should be thinking of how to vote them out. Are they not tired of the killings going on under this government? Don't tell me it also happened under PDP because under PDP, they were arrested and jailed but this government release and reward them. Besides, the casualty figures are much higher. In addition, there is no time in history we have lost our soldiers to the terrorists than in this regime. Wake up Edo people and vote out PDP. I know PDP is corrupt as well as APC. I prefer the one who will steal but will not kill me. We were much safer under PDP and it is the man that is alive that can plan for tomorrow.

. Did you tell river to vote out wike when people were being killed everyday in river state? Did you blame wike for it? You been get boil fat time shey? When Nigerian were dying left and right under Jonathan did ur side of the divide not campaign for him to continue? Uptil today u believe he is the best thing after toast bread.. Yeye dey smell una never see anything yet

moodyguy:
Useless Oshiomhole thug

Stupid Obaseki's goat.

moodyguy:
See ur smelling mouth.....typical zombie spreading falsehood

If my mouth is smelling is better than your ignorance and illiteracy smelling all over nairaland.com that people can perceive it just by opening the thread.. Mine has remedy your has none.. Stupid Nnamdi Kanu dog.. I thought Jack was dead.

moodyguy:
Name them let's pile pressure on them

Start from Nairaland.. Them buku for here.. They in your party.. I won't do your assignment for you.

moodyguy:
He's not d one contesting but he has been in forefront of all false allegations against Obaseki about his Educational qualifications.Yes Oshiomhole shld show us his Primary 6 certificate.You and I know that Oshio de frog did not go to school.

How many of the pdp urchins brought their certificate for us to see? Even though we know many are illiterates but were are at the forefront of Buhari does not have a certificate noise.. Why did they not bring theirs for us to see first?

No the same thing I said.. They idiots were abusing me that I am not igbo or supporting my tribe.. Well if that is how the biafra will be, to be covering atrocities I am not going to be a part of it.. Biafra soldiers committed lots of atrocities just like their Nigerian counterparts and worst of all the committed atrocities even to biafran. That is where my first rejection of the so colled hallucinations if a country started.. I repeat and I do not care how many damn ipob idiots they are on this forum.. I do not and will never support Nnamdi Kanu's biafra because he has the traits of a tyrant and is a tyrant.

richie240:
Don't follow him/her down dt dark alley pls.

He/she is trying to deflect d gravity of ds offence by derailing d thread!

Its a tactic they've perfected to divert attention when cornered.
You can see he/she has cunningly gotten u discussing sth totally else different from d main topic.

Don't 'gaulk' it.

#Eyez_on_d_ball!

With this quote.. You are one of the smartest people on Nairaland.. In short I should call Anti ipob doctor.. You know their strategy well.. �

OruExpress:
that is good but you're the one that started a thread about how you can't speak igbo fully and therefore something is wrong with the igbo langauge and not you.

Is that exactly what you understood from what I wrote? That something is wrong with igbo? I think you should read my contribution to the thread again.. Another again I was not the one who opened the thread.. Have a nice day.

Danzysb:
Igbo is somehow,you need to be committed to learn it. And even if Igbo is hard or what ever,if an elder or some adults find out that,The person cannot speak Igbo but grew up in Igbo land,It will sound really wrong to them and they will start asking questions that will give you a hard time.
Mana,Igbo di uto,n'onu(Igbo is sweet in the mouth)when you finally learn it...

Igbo di uto. mana anyi ga ekwu euiokwu di na nmuta Igbo. Igbo adighi mfe Imuts mana anyi ga na akwa lite nmuo ndi choro imuta igbo ka ha gaa ni iru.

I speak Igbo English and German.. I cannot come out and say German is so easy to learn when I know as an adult it has its own difficulty.. But you will still encourage whoever wants to learn it.. Even English is difficult for non native speakers.. Is it because we learn it from childhood in Nigeria? Don't worry when you come and start rapping English with your correct grammar you will see how some oyinbo will look at you with amazement

OruExpress:
lol at 'but at least its not english'. Nna go and learn Igbo or leave it alone. You're very intent on saying what you're saying, true or false, but ultimately your solution will be to learn Igbo.

Oga you are not better than me at igbo.. I do not need to learn igbo because I am a native speaker.. Born and bred in Owerri.. So that is your damn business

warripekin:
And when we say you are working projects initiated by Jonathan and halfway completed by him, you all begin to rant .APC is a waste. You have gone ahead to borrow billions more on projects already paid for by Jonathan.

Oga sign of loan is not paying and working.. They signed it but were still thinking of how to collect their share 4 years pass nothing..

Zeeknow3245:
If Edo people vote for Iyamho they are bigger fools than... Considering the fact that Oshiomole labashed Iyamho during 2016 calling him all sort of names and vice versa. Kai Nigeria I shake my head. Abeg who plenty for the crowd? No be youths? Come on shame on Edo Youths if they do the wrong thing of voting this guy ehn. Sha na Edo people go suffer no be my state sha.

Oshiomole lambasted Ize-Iyamu for only 4 months during campaign but pdp lambasted Obaseki for 4years and you want them to vote for him.. Who is fooling who? ABEG pdp urchins no go kill person with nonsense.. If una no get talk no just open mouth.

Centcanada:
The youth of the the Zoo re the problem of themselves. They don't know their right from their wrong. Even as oshomole is using them both physically and spiritually, they still wanted to be use by these set of APCs fools. I spit for them because their suddenness is just starting if they vote for APC again. Idiot people without common sense.

OK so what pdp wants to do is useful them Abi? My friend go seat down.. So wike and Pdp are planning paradise for Edo people.. Mtschew

lomprico:
I do! you are not one.

I see you are one of those ipob fools who think if them tell me I am not igbo it will pain me.. Well I am not igbo it OK.. Your opinion I hope are OK now lol.. Well fact remains 1 million of you cannot change my igboness deal with it. Whatever rocks your boat..

PharmD911:
You guys are losing your culture already. Can you imagine, your indigenous movies cannot speak Igbo for 2hrs without adding English? lol.

It not a mock or joke thing.. We are not losing our culture because we have lots of core speakers but I a just pointing out difficulties in the language that even native speakers face.

lomprico:
you are not igbo! kapish!

before the coup, before the war, it is were targeted and killed for no reason

You are not in a position to say who is igbo or not.. Believe what you want.. It changes nothing..

HomerTimpson:
there are many more bro,leave the bigot OP to be forming tribalistic delusion of grandeur

Gini ka e na eme? = what are you doing?
Kedu / kedi ihe nwa ahu na ataa? What is that child eating?

Kedu can also be what in Igbo..

Olatara:
And Ijebu

I know lots of Igbos in lagos who speak these core yoruba dialects and even write them well.. Victor was born and bred in lagos and does business there.. So he has transversed the south west well.. It's even elderly yoruba who told me that.. "This one is no longer igbo" they said to me, but the amazing thing is Victor is also very good in igbo and also speaks his dialect.. He comes from ebonyi state.

OruExpress:
you dont know what is borrow and what isnt. For example, baba is not yoruba.

but atleast is not English.. Go and listen to atleast 10 yoruba people at random speak and what how long it will take before you hear and English word and then try it for Igbo too.. The result will amaze you.. To help too toggle between African magic Igbo and yoruba for 2hrs and come back with your result..

I do not know what borrow is and you brought baba did you not see where I wrote English words? How did baba enter there? Or do you have comprehension problem?

lomprico:
which coup? so because some top military men who were majorly igbos did coup before I was even born, that give some urchins right to insult me for no reason.

search and watch this documentary ' the real story of nigeria' and funish yourself with d truth.

stop using the word 'we' you are not igbo.

Whether you like it or not.. It is what it is.. Imagine if it was hausa Fulani that did that will you be saying what you said? You wake up one morning and wipe out other people's revered elites and you talk about furnish.. Furnish ko table ni.. The problem with we igbo is we take action and expect to dictate for other how they should feel, to what extent they should eel the pain and most of all carelessly dismiss other peoples plight but when same come to us we remember it is painful.. You are currently also exhibiting it.. For you to dismiss the coup with because some top military guys of mostly Igbo blsbla bla well it is what it was an for the receivers it is so painful that they brought you to where you are today.. Take or leave it.. Until we understand that, we will still be here.. Ka chineke me eziokwu

overall90:
Isn't it laughable how other Nigerians accuse igbos of hate .
And I have been trying to find IPOB on the post but can't.smh

Nobody is a fool.. We know our selves. When you shout Afonja do you see yoruba written there? Or when you shout Fulani up and down did you see them anywhere around you?

abduljabbar4:
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.

And the sad thing is when it comes back to haunt, it will haunt all of us including those of us that have been shouting our lungs hoarse about the dangers of the path they are treading. Well we will continue.. Evil triumph when good men do nothing.. The voice of the good and loving Igbo will continue to be the first barrier against this hateful bunch and their wicked goals.

I think Igbo is actually the hardest of the 3 main Nigeria languages.. As a native Igbo speaker I cannot speak igbo for 20 mins to 30 mins without English words creeping in to better describe my point or convey my idea. But I watch with amusement as yorubas and hausas speak for about an 1hr and they will not borrow from English.. I thought I was the only one but when I noticed lots of older Igbos, African magic Igbo and lots of people do same things unlike our yoruba and hausa counterparts.. Then I knew that Igbo is hard even for native speakers talkless learner.

Karanka:
Can you explain how Igbos 'started all this'?

. If Nairaland your talking about maybe you are new? We were all here. If is Nigeria you talking about go check your history..

WoundedLamb:
I don't know why we are having this chat. I'm doing something. I'm contributing my quota in the war against tribalism and discrimination in general. If you check my posts, you'd see my take on misogyny, religious bigotry, homophobia, etc. If this is the first time you're seeing my post against tribalism, so be it. You can continue being tribalistic if you want but don't fight me for doing the right thing. I have no affiliation whatsoever with your tribe and I have no reason to protect their interest over mine so if I called out that guy, it is because his comment reeks of tribalism and not because I have any tribe's interest so stop making up things to suit your perception. You have the duty to talk to your tribalistic people since they'd rather listen to you as one of them but don't tell me it's wrong to correct a folk.

. I have no duty rather you said you are against tribalism probably anti tribal activist . Then I see no reason you are having a problem to talk to the most visible hate group (ipob) I know in Nigeria.. If you are having a problem with it pack up ur activism e no get head. Simple nice evening

WoundedLamb:
Then quote and correct your tribalistic people and stay out of my mention as you don't care.

I will quote you.. For writing this only when is going one sided we are all on Nairaland together.. If I had seen the ones you wrote to my brothers you post for make sense..

lomprico:
what did the igbos start?

Here on Nairaland.. I am not talking of Nigeria in general and if you still go to Nigeria as a whole we still started it with that coup..

WoundedLamb:
Who are the "our" ? Do you know my tribe? Please, I don't care about anyone tribe. Can't even remember the last time I visited Africa. If you read my sig, you'd see I'm out against any form of discrimination/sectionalism. I would appreciate if you stop attempting to box me into a corner. Thanks.

I don't know your tribe but our represent me and the tribe I come from which is Igbo.. You can be from kafanchan for all I care

WoundedLamb:
Can we pedal down a little on this tribalism stuff? It doesn't tell well of anyone's background. Nobody gains from tribalism. A non Igbo man said something about another non Igbo man and a third non Igbo man countered it. But here you are baring your fangs at the Igbo man. Please bro, let's channel our energy on these guys leading the country. Let's collectively bare our fangs at them instead until they take us seriously. We can blame our leaders all we want but until we come together as a people and say it's enough, nothing will change.

#SayNoToTribalism

Bro I am Igbo but I think when you keep quiet when our people don't mind their business you have no right to tell the other people to channel their energy elsewhere.. Nobody has the monopoly of something.. Let our people first channel their energy to save Igboland before insulting other people's leaders.. I once said it on Nairaland here. Our people think they are the only smart people well now you also see other Nigerians are fast learners. When we do things we enjoy especially when we have the monopoly but the moment others start to learn and give us back a dosage of it we begin to cry.. Do not start what you cannot finish.. First take your preaching to our people who started all this.. Ka Chineke me eziokwu..
