Girl wey no give you face, no be to walka dey go jejeje

Since you believe they got no respect for you guys, why then still insist on being their friends

See human being. Me insist on being friends? God forbid. Perhaps you are mistaking me for someone else. Ive always said if my wish could be granted, id have all yall carved out of this country without sparing a split second to think about it.

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T APPRECIATE WHERE IGBOS WERE COMING FROM:

By Ena Ofugara from Urhobo.

How Much Respect Do You Show Igbos


I am not Igbo. I am proud of my Urhobo. However, as a student of history, I wish to show just what these great people came/come against and yet thrive.

Okay, the incessant killings in the North will be glossed over so as to make this article not overly long. The civil war will also not be discussed.

However, post civil war, as I explained in my post MINORITY REPORT: THE SYSTEM IS RIGGED AGAINST YOU, the rich in Nigeria have major roots in the Indigenisation decree of 1972 and 1977. I reminded people how the banks gave people of other tribes, predominantly Hausas and Yorubas loans to buy up companies owned by foreigners. Now imagine the Federal government forced Chevron to sell 51 percent of its shares and that Access Bank will give you loans to buy the shares. How rich will you be in a year? 5 Years? That is how many Yorubas and Hausas got to own UAC, all those Dunlop, Leventis, Cadbury etc.

Now while this was ongoing, Awolowo/Gowon told the Nigerian banks to give TOPS twenty naira to any Igbo man that had money in the bank before the war. That is, if you had 5 naira before the war, you will be given the 5 naira. But if you had one million naira, you get just twenty naira in full fulfilment of the banks duty to give you your money.

Ask yourselves, why would the banks give Igbos only twenty naira? Did the banks collapse? So why pay less than you were given?

So while the banks were giving loans to Hausa and Yorubas to buy Oyibo companies they did not build, Igbos were being cheated out of their rightful moneys.

Now note also that these people lost Houses and business across the land. It is safe to say that as at 1970/71, the richest Igbo had 20 naira that may be the equivalent of maybe one million naira.

Let us look at how Dangote made his money. He Dagote (a great man and pride to Nigeria) had an uncle called Dantata who owned huge chunks of the groundnut pyramids of the 50's and 60's. He gave Dangote a loan and Dangote paid it back in a record time. CLAP, CLAP. Then add that Dangote has had his "brothers" in government, from Shagari, Buhari, IBB, Abacha, Abdulsalami to Yar'Adua. When they now agreed to democracy, he was rich enough to have funded Obasanjo and so government policies, be it monopoly afforded him for rice, sugar flour and of course a large share of subsidy etc ensures he is the wealthiest Nigerian. Note that many had same opportunity but did not use it. We kowtow to Dangote's investment capabilities.

However, for the Igbo man, where will he see an uncle that will loan him money? The richest man in their family has how much as at then? So while Fani Kayode can inherit property of his father and grandfather and great grand father, a Chidi Kalu cannot inherit anything from his grandfather who had business in Kano or even Port Harcourt. Neighbours have made his dad's storey building theirs, and even someone as educated as Ken Saro-Wiwa lived in an Igbo war emigrant house as his. (A sore point of the Niger Delta and Igbo Unity). WAEC building was Ojukwu's dad's building and like that building, thousands and the lands with it....lands worth billions today were taken from Igbos and each and every Igbo had tops 20 naira, destroyed homeland, stolen and destroyed wealth away from the East. Also his brother is never president that will give him oil block or fuel lifting. Of 33, only one Igbo man and because he was in Obasanjo's good graces.


YET LOOK HOW PROUD THEY STAND TODAY!!! Look what they have achieved for themselves....FIRST GENERATION WEALTH...top second generation. From being unable to send their first sons to school so he could help look after the shop, to producing first class brains in all departments of modern learning.

So today, as you accuse Igbos of wanting their Biafra or of Baby Factory, or liking money and ready to do anything for money, remember that just forty years ago, while the banks were dashing your uncles loans to buy all the companies of Nigeria, it stole from the Igbos. Know that appointments have not favoured them. Note that they remain persecuted and many speak such ill and hate towards a people forced by need to survive to be extra-aggressive towards their sustenance. Maybe if you took their history into consideration, you will not be so critical of them, but instead say "what a resilient people" and give God the glory.[/s]

Another mighty pile of rubbish. How much respect do they show anybody. You dont give hate and disrespect everyone ans then expect to be embraced aand respected by all.

What you give is what you yet. If you wanna be respected, show some respect and act like a normal human being for a moment. Simple as that.

letsbet:
Sometimes I have a feeling that IPOB fanatics are disillusioned. I don't see any breakthrough in this thier so called dream. we are better together. sentiments aside, let's join hands and make Nigeria great.

Nonsense. They should get the Bleep out this country abeg. Weve had enough of their irritating nonsense already.

KidsNEXTdoor:
I don't see how this concerns u
We must learn to mind our biz

I dont see where i mentioned u in my comment. You should learn to mind your own business.

Like i said, it is a damn shame no one remembered the war criminal.

Geniro:
As a saintly APC supporter, kindly provide a verifiable proof to the part in bold. You either show us or you acknowledge you are such a little sad fellow who is a loser in life.

@ Mynd44, i hope you are seeing this.... I wont have my hands tied behind my back by some rules while someone insults me and go scot free oo.

ProudArewa:
Aliade road?.....are u from Benue state?

Yes. Why?

AntiWailer:
No money for best graduating student.

It is just pathetic my brother.

Johnnyessence:
thanks for replying him this way jare. They never appreciate him and I don't think great things can come out from their lives. They can never appreciate ogbeni for his drastic development in the state of osun. Some of them av not step d state but rant and wail on nairaland.

We know them. These are the same people that would spam the forum with aa million threads per minute f their own governor or any from theor region, builds and commissions a round hut. Yet they have the nerve to criticise something as laudable as this.

This is just madness.

Kyase:
Sarrki come and See ooo

Some folks are surely gonna shiit burnt bricks as hard as thise produced along Aliade road upon reading this.

I just hope these two finally mend their relationship which somehow has gone sour and made worse by those seeking to capitalise on the their friction to mend their political thatch houses.

It is well with Jagaban.

It is well with Baba.

It is well with the South West.

It is well with Nigeria.

Scammer alert

Has your own governor been able to build a public latrine so far? Can you show us pictures?

Very mighty shame.

Take a seat and leave this thread.


Why are you using an alternate moniker when Omenka is on ban

I believe you were the one who bamned omenka and i believe you own all two monikers to know one is The other's alt.

Get the fvxk out out out of my face.

Like i said before, Ayo is a bloody criminal and a savage. If it hurts anyone so much, they can hang themselves. I couldnt care any less.

Nukualofa:
I didn't expect much from a Benue State Univ Graduate

Neither do i expect more from someone whose name begins with the alphabets with which your name starts. Go hang urself if that hurts you so badly.

Ayo is a repugnant cocaine addicted unreoentant criminal and will get whats coming for him sooner than later.

Didnt bother reading the stuff since it has no source. We are hateful gobbling who swallow everything the are served hook line and sinker just because they spite those they dislike. We leave that to PDP supporters.

That said, it is public knowledge Ayo is one hell of a repugnant cocaine addicted unrepentant crook. There's absolutely nothing about him that indicates the presence of Christ in his life.

cococandy:
I agree with you

That incident remains one of the most barbaric I've witnessed my whole life where we completely lost our essence as Humans.

It is a damn shame no one has been punished for it. I grieved for a week when i watched thag video and somehow wished i never watched it. And my grief took a turn for the worst when listened to the song they did together- as though they foresaw What happened to them.

phemmyutd:
Then go and k.ill yourself if they refuse to serve, who sent you to serve self? How meaningful is that your useless service to the nation?

You know, Buhari may not be alk people had expected him to be, but this bityer hatred directed towards him and his family is the reason why some people still fedrvently support them.

What manner of useless opposition is this? How many people asked any such stupid question about the drunken fisherman's relations wheni he ran Nigeria like a village council enterprise?

Once there isnt enough bad news for them to celebrate, they simply create some useless thread to continue wailing on.

How pathetic.

Good. The sore losers can go to court and stay there for the rest of their miserable lives, while their supporters can keep wailing their eyeballs off online for the rest of their miserable lives. No one cares.

Congrats o ce again to Aketi and the good people of Ondo state.

Next.

The same people would be the first to stand on every rooftop available in the country to shout "Buhari is against ibos" if he gives Emefiele the boots.

Let the man remain there.

Nonsense website.

Her cake, her NOSE, her business.

Next.

This man has been ranting about Obasanjo for the pasr four days. What exactly is his beef?

Someone should call for a comprehensive investigation of Aluu4 incident. Who's the senator representing that constituency sef?

The loved ones of those boys deserve justice!

Keneking:
What is the ranking of Benue State University sef?

BSU is one of the best state owned unis out there. Especially their Econs and Law departments.

SycophanticGoat:

aarressa:
You mean we should keep begging you to stop bombing and destroying your own land like we've been begging you with so many peace initiatives, more money, NDDC, amnesty and billions upon Nbillions of amnesty PAYMENTS?


No, they can not keep holding us to ransom or keep blackmailing us forever, they can blow up the whole of ND and drink whatever oil they have left, who cares?


What have they done with all their derivations, allocations, IGR, amnesty payments and so on?

Delta state is the most indebted country in Nigeria with N700 billion debt, but can you point to one thing they did with that money?

Oil is an international commodity and we can get it from anywhere and even oil is available in other peaceful and non violent parts of Nigeria or even from outside Nigeria.

Yes. They want Buhari to crawl on his belly from Abuja down to the creeks, lick the balls of the militants clean, convert to a Christian, resign, and the make Tompolo preesident for them to cease bombing.

Dem never see anything.

Let them run their region aground jor. Who cares.
