illiad: You are a freaking hypocrite like your forefathers. Who are the people that formed alliance out of selfishness and greediness with Hausa/Fulanis in 60s at the expense of all Southerners? Igbos Who destroyed our regional system of government(true federalism)? Igbos Who formed d second alliance with the same Hausas/Fulanis after killing millions of your kinsmen mercilessly? Igbos It's a good thing that Igbos are reaping what they sowed; you wanted to control others by forcing Unitary system of govt on them but as God ll have it, Hausa/Fulanis hijacked it and continue to use it against you. If you are not happy buddy, call for another war. 1 Like |

lyntiffany: I have repeated this here time without numbers, there nothing like Niger-delta when it's time for War. I only pity the Ijaws being pushed by Igbos. Igbos had tour that path and regretted their actions. The past conflicts between the militants and Nigeria military was mere riot. I pity the Ijaws when Nigeria military finally decide to kill them like chickens. Creeks could only accommodate Asari and his likes during a mere riot but in a full war, Creeks becomes a plain battlefield where bombs become an hourly thing. The Ijaws ll see their Bayelsa and cry. Ojukwu who was well trained in one of the best military school in the world with other finest Igbo officers thought that it was going to be an easy battle going by Nigeria govt attitude to internal conflict. Ojukwu even went on live TV to tell the whole world that Nigeria state would be shocked as to what was coming for them but unknown to him that a child ll be left to put his finger in burning candle in order for dat child to learn his lesson. It ll only take just 4 days for Nigeria military to wipe Ijaws out of existence. Let them go to Odi and ask...... Di Ijaws youth think Asari us stupid when he took his business to Benin. Asari knows what we would befall that region in eventuality of war. I pity Ijaws when they say Niger-Deltans, Do Ijaws expect Itshekiris, Edos, Urhobos, Egberis to support them in any war against Nigeria state? impossible mission. I guess they need to sit down and read Nigeria history very well before going into any war. Ijaws story would be worse than Igbo case after the war and Nigeria would completely leave them out of scheme of things after the war. 2 Likes |

Have a new country today - Biafra, it won't change your situation until Igbos realise what they are doing to themselves and their unborn generation. No investors from other regions and other countries around the world would come to the East cos they are freaking tribalistic and greedy.

However, you jumped at the issue by saying the man has no right to do this and that............ It's obvious the lady in view is irresponsible going by the fact that the custody of the kids was given to the husband.

Politics / Wrong Assertions That Need To Be Corrected In Nigeria by proudlyhandsome: 12:32pm On May 21, 2015 |
WRONG ASSERTIONS THAT NEED TO BE CORRECTED: It is self-deceiving telling yourselves as Igbos that you are a match to Yorubas in terms of business, education and regional economy. I won't dispute the fact that Igbos are perceived as business oriented people but it's just a wrong assertion going by real fact on ground. The question is what brought about this assertion? Igbos travelled to other regions of the country to establish their business while Yorubas mainly travelled abroad for studies and businesses. This ability of Igbos to travel to other regions within Nigeria state was what bring about their presence in the North and the West. Hausa/Fulanis are not equally left out when it comes to bussiness; these guys owned all the Sabo Markets in the South, West and East. What Igbos and few others failed to understand is that millions of bonafide citizens of these regions are into different businesses before Igbo even imagine to come to their regions. Pls, Let's take Lagos and Ibadan as case study here, Igbos often believed that their numbers in Lagos markets is smting to write home about simply cos of their numbers in Alaba, Ladipo and Idumota forgetting that Yorubas are the ones holding down all the numerous markets all over Lagos states. After all, Alaba,,Idumota and Ladipo is not even up to 40% of all the markets in Lagos states. Permit me to deviate from Lagos Markets to Europe/American Markets just a little bit so as to give you a true picture of what is going on, i am still wondering why Igbo keep deceiving themselves by calling themselves business oriented people when they couldn't even extend their business prowess/skills to Europe/North America countries. 80% of Nigerians' businesses(From Chartered Accountants firms, Law firms, Restaurants to Grocery stores) in these following countries - Canada, US, UK and of course Ireland are owned by Yorubas. Let's go to Ibadan-Oluyole, Ibadan has about 3 largest markets - Gbagi, Bodija, Oja Oba/Orita Merin Markets in the whole country(Google it) just like the 4 biggest markets in the East - Ariaria market, Aba, Onitsha, Ogbete. However, these three markets in Ibadan are purely dominated by Yorubas just like the 4 markets in the East. Having 96% domination in those three biggest markets in Ibadan and the rest of markets in Lagos(except those three aforementioned markets: Alaba, Ladipo and Idumota-share by Igbo and Yorubas) with those ones in the rest of Yoruba states, then how dare you compare our BUSINESS ACUMEN to Igbos. It's an insult to us as bigger Nation. Let's talk about Industrialists in the country today, Yorubas and Hausas/Fulanis have completely dominated that sector of our economy; no doubt about it. These two people are sitting on top while Igbo are struggling to climb the ladder. However, I am not expecting you to accept this as fact but I want you to look around you and see who and who control industries in Nigeria(not this false assertion among Igbos just to make themselves happy). Education- Education is a must in every Yoruba homes and Igbos have seen what Yorubas have been able to achieve with this over the years which informed their attitude of shunning out statistics out in recent time so as to disapprove d fact that Yorubas are more educated than Igbos. Have you asked yourself why Universities in the East have never been rated as one of the top best universities in the whole continent? There lies your answer bro. Quality education could only be obtained in the West Universities which informed the reason why they have remained the only unversities being rated among the best in Africa and few others from North and Mid West - Uniben and of course ABU. The quest of Yorubas for quality education is the reason why Yorubas are 20% of graduating students in Europe and America universities. If doubt me, attend any graduation convocation in all these countries I have mentioned and ask any of the students for their program brochures which has the names of graduating students for that academic year. Trust me, you ll be blown away by the numbers of Yoruba names on the list which rarely have 1 to 2 Igbo names. Igbos travel, I laughed whenever I read/heard this wrong assertion being made by Igbos among themselves. I guess the ones making this assertion are ones that have never left the shore of Nigeria cos if you do, you ll definitely know how Yorubas have dominated North America and Europe over the years. US, Canada, Ireland and UK are completely dominated by Yorubas. Yorubas population in these aforementioned countries are running to millions. If you doubt me, go on the streets and Airports of these Europe and North America countries to see things for yourself. Igbos business guys only travel to China, Malaysia while Yorubas go to Dubai and China (few). However, there are numbers of Igbos in America but not up to 40% of Yorubas there. Oil and Gas industry is a place you need to look into so as to know that it ll be a long journey for Igbos to catch up with Yorubas. Igbos could push all their Oafs, Drongo and Lummox(s) through their educational system in the East so as to match up with Yorubas in numbers but they can't bribe Shell, Chevron and of course Total to employ more Igbos to match up with Yorubas numbers in this industry. Banking Industry is equally a pointer to who is dominating who. The killer is Federal Ministries- it's like second home of Yorubas. Peace out. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

I now understand the reason why none of Eastern universities has ever been rated among best d universities in Africa. 96% of these doctorate degree holders paid their way through. Go to Oil and Gas industry to see who is dominating Come to Banking industry- the only way few igbos were able to secure jobs in this industry was as a result of Igbo controlled bank. Federal Ministries is more or less a Yoruba man companies. Federal parastatals is the same story. Come to UK and US universities to see the real truth I ll post the pictures of students graduation list of two universities here in UK for you to see the true picture of what is going on. Thousands of Yorubas are in UK & US universities. Yorubas are not competing with Igbos cos they are years ahead in terms of quality education; Igbos are the ones buying certificates, pushing illiterates through O' levels so as to match up with Yoruba supremacy as far as education is concerned. 1 Like |

tonychristopher: I wouldn't want to use normal Yorubas on our streets to drive home my point cos it might be difficult for us to get the real statistics. However, i ll use Yoruba celebrities and politicians to drive home my point. Can you tell me how many Yoruba politicians and celebrities are married to Igbo wives? None. Do you now see how stupidd you sound? Read and read for your own good, Yoruba parents hate to see their children getting married to Igbos but the children of 21st century have changed the whole game now. They choose whom they want to spend the rest of their lives with either their parents like or not. I have dated many Igbo girls right from my secondary school days and i didnt even know they were Igbos until we started dating. 98% of Yoruba guys u see with Igbo girls were not probably aware that these Igbo girls were Igbos until they started dating. There are thousand Igbo girls out there in South West who were born and raised in South West; these girls can speak Yorubas better than bonafide Yoruba ladies/guys. And you won't even suspect they were Igbos until you start dating them. These Igbo girls could even speak Yoruba dialect of their place of birth in South west. I dated an Igbo girl for 4 years before i met my wife and within 7 months i got married to my Yoruba wife for the sake of my children but she refused to see reason wt me. The Igbo girl nearly went mad and I never knew there was a love like that. I have read and heard about real love but never believe in it until I jilted this lady. She but poison and threatened to kill herself if I dished my Yoruba girlfriend................... Long story. My point is that there are so many Igbo immigrants in south west with their daughters who could speak Yoruba language fluently and attend Schools with Yoruba guys without us knowing that they Igbos until we stated dating these Igbo girls 2 Likes |

noblezone: Stop abusing the man who come up with that great idea which we failed to use to our own advantage. The man concept was derived from UK formation which consists 4 countries - Scotland, Ireland, Wales and England. The purpose of the formation was meant to be like this; Biafra supports Arewa where she is lacking, Odua supports Biafra where she is lacking and Niger delta supports Odua where she is lacking and all come together to help one another economically just like what is obtainable in present day United Kingdom. However, just three years into a newly born country, Igbo bleeped it up out of greediness, tibalism and selfishness (call me names but the plain truth). The three regions were flourishing economically with healthy competition but out of greediness and tribalism, Igbo wanted power at all cost and ended up killing innocent military and civilian leaders on the streets. As if that was not enough, Aguiyi Ironsi destroyed the whole regional system of govt by forcing Unitary system of govt over the rest of the country despite all the pleas from these same people Igbos tagged Born to Rule (Hausas/Fulanis) , Yorubas and MMiddlebelters. Hausa/Fulanis only used the opportunity given to them by Igbos by carrying on with Unitary system of govt. After all, Hausa/Fulanis never forced Unitary system of govt on us despite their numbers in our military institution in 60s but Igbo did with their few numbers. With this factual history above, who do you hold responsible for this mess? Please, put half of that blames at your doorstep first before looking toward Mr Luggard and rest of the country. The earlier you guys have a round discussion over your quest for "Life must be all about me", the better for the entire Biafra state. South Sudan thought that they would be better of as independent nation with their newly discovered land of Gold-Oil without addressing their enemies within who are the leaders. They are regretting their actions today cos the ordinary citizens were better off in their old country. What life would be like in Biafra nation could be seen today in the present day of Igbo states (Enugu, Abia, Ebony, Anambra and Imo state) if you are very conversant with partitioned Nations(Pakistan and Indian, Sudan and South Sudan, old USSR) around the world. The present day Igbo leaders who are more greedy than the rest of politicians from other regions(I said this cos they have never stand together against/in favour of a course together) would still remain your leaders in your new Nation and i m very sure that they won't suddenly become born a again christian who wouldn't steal your commonwealth then. 2 Likes |

eduj: I am speaking out and against the pains of my fellow human beings regardless what they have done to my brothers and sisters in the past. Where is our inbuilt empathy? The victims of Boko menace might not even know anything about the killing of other tribes by Northerners youth in the past. Would you like to be called Drug traffickers, kidnappers, armed robbers, 419ner etc simply cos you are from the South? No I presumed. The few among us in the South indulge in those aforementioned crimes on daily basis but that does not represent 10% of our total population; the remaining 90% of us are hard-working and resilient Nigerians whom i believed shouldn't be judged on the crimes of few. If you refuse to show some empathy towards these Northerners' pains today simply cos of what you read online, heard offline or true event of what happened, then remember that your own days are coming and Northerners would laugh at you too. It then becomes a vicious circle. Let's try to learn from the past so as to avoid the mistakes of the past. Take a look at this without tribal sentiment/bias. Let assume that this is what happen in 60s There was an Igbo coup and leaders of other regions were mercilessly killed but Igbo leaders quickly come out and condemned the mass killing of other tribes' leaders, the ordinary Igbos in the North equally came out in their thousands to show their empathy to the Northerners and above all, Aguiyi Ironsi made the coupists to pay for their crimes just as it had been stipulated in their military act. Do you know that there might not be a reprisal coup in which Ibos military officers were sacrificed. After this coup and counter coup, souls were lost simply cos we refused to show empathy when it was necessary as humans. Do you know why Igbos are still target of Northerners youth? Do you know why Igbo loathe Northerners so much? The answers to those two question lies right there; empathy and apology. Igbos want to talk about Biafra war and pogrom at all time but Hausa/Fulani/Kanuri want to know why you killed their leaders mercilessly. How do you deal with this? It's pretty simple.... Empathy and Apology ll resolve this problem without any stress. If you choose to do opposite and end up fighting each other, more souls from both sides would be killed and wasted for stupid arrogance. Peace cost nothing while war cost the same lives you are claiming to protect and love. Mind you, I am a Yoruba man not a Northerner as you had assumed before. |
