Hen! IGBOS...these folks have A LOT of INTERNAL ISSUES to resolve; if they're willing anyway.
I wonder what generations of Igbo kids down the line will think of all these internal STRIFE and HATE propagated by their forebears

omenka:
Imagine just how much they hate themselves. Two sister communities can't live in peace and they think one useless imaginary country would somehow, mysteriously re-orient their brains.

Imagine some of them now shouting vangaurd is lying against Igbos- I mean- VANGUARD!!

Lmao!! What a pity.

when they are caught, it's either they come from Anambra, Imo, Enugu, Ebonyi or Ohafia axis and operating in Aba to damage the reputation of Aba people.Early this year, a kidnapping gang was caught, their information indicated that they came from Ebonyi, Imo and Anambra.Last week, the king pin of a kidnapping group was caught in his base in Ohafia but he specializes in kidnapping Aba residents

Call Ezepromoe for as long as possible, you cannot sit behind your PC and determine wether im Ikwerre or not. Take or leave it, your heartache.

As for biafra, it can be likened to a man who has set his eyes on owning a property primarily on assumptions that neighbours will gift him money. When his hopes are dashed, he turns around to pour invectives at his neighbours.

If pro-Biafra Igbos sincerely want to be taken seriously on this biafra issue, thay should work within the framework of the 5SE states. I repeat, if they are to be considered as being serious, they should work with what they truly have. At this age, it is technically impossible either by coercion or whatever to marry SE with SS as a large percentage of us are suspicious of igbos(with good reason), simply uninterested and see it simply as a change of nomenclature from what Nigeria is.

bros no be fight ooo....i schooled in unn so am sure of what i wrote up there.....give a reasonable defence not this petty defence

Fadekebisola:
am not igbo but am almost 100% sure the odd people who bore the main hate and tribalism amongst u is anambra state....i heard in igboland some are senior igbos while others are lesser igbos.....i wonder the kind of tribe igbos are...too hateful of themselves..

Fadekebisola:
then i was correct wen i mentioned anambrarians as the ones responsible for igbo unity...am no igbo but i schooled in the east.....by far anambra people are the most tribalistic beings i have ever seen....they even tell Nsukka and abakaliki people that northerners are their brothers ....how can they expect this sub-group to feel wen they malign them..

i just de laugh wen una ipob youths begin rant about biafra up and down

Fadekebisola:
i even heard Nsukka, Ngwa and Abakaliki people are not regarded as pure igbos..

just try and zone 2019 presidency to Abia, Ebonyi or Nsukka and u will realise how the sharp divisions will be

dont ask me how i know...i schooled in UNN and over there in Enugu i virtually noted all these....i stayed for 5years in Enugu and once u are referred as from Nsukka or Abakaliki u will see how people will deny their place bc of the classification amongst igbos..

one day in class one anambra lecturer asked 'how can fools be given state' referring to Nsukka people seeking for adada state...heard he's now late..may his soul rip


go to north u can never know who is from kano or katsina or kaduna bc they relate as one or even my home place south west...but in south east they will usually classify themselves based on state..

let me stop here...i know igbos too well and thats why i dont give a fvck about their chest beating...

Kyase:
[s]but you know how the Igbo's hate their own.[/s]
example Rochas, ngige, obi etc.

When people say, AM not this, AM that, it is pure mischief to me. And what or who are you afraid of? And what if you are lbo, whats wrong with that? You owe nobody any apology for bearing whats on your mind.



Secondly, as Nigeria democracy stand today, lbo presidency is a tall order. Because, how do you go out under sun and rain to vote in successionist as president? Their vision and mission is very Very clear. Voting in an lbo president now is suicidal to the unity of the country.




The best they can get is a VP.

@Obailala, I like your write up(I like people who criticize and give reasons for their criticism) but our opinion differs here because i am of the opinion that we will do better as a divided nation,my reasons are as follows:

Our present country has been designed to favour some regions in terms of employment(Quota system)making the other region to be a conquered territory and this alone cripples patriotism and morale of people from that region.

Our present country has made policies that indirectly made the operations and activities of the seaports/airports in the marginalized region to be less attractive compared to the other regions that rapour with the so called super region(Hausa/Fulani).

We will do better as a divided nation because competition among the separated country will come up especially between the old eastern region and old western region and these competition will lead to more developments in the two different countries.

We will do better as a separate countries because we can easily hold our representatives accountable and tell them to their face whatever they are doing wrong(Okorocha speech at chattam House a case study), but if we remain one the corrupt leaders will be jumping all this atrocious act easily because once their tenure elapse they can easily settle in Abuja or leave the country because they know once they go back home that his people doesn't tolerate rubbish(Especially south eastern region, Ezeife of Old Anambra state can attest to this because of what happened to him by his kindreds because he couldn't construct a single road in his village while he was constructing other village roads when their administration were cut short by the military) but as a multi ethnic group made politicians to escape prosecution easily because they can easily instigate their people that he wasn't permitted to work because of other tribe attitude in his ministry/department/portfolio/designate.

As a divided country, i think people will be closer to the government because the area square metre to be governed will be minimized and it will make everybody to easily identify with the federal/state/local govt to sort out the various problems they have(Eg someone from PH can go to Enugu for an occassion/appointment and still return back to PH that same day)been facing as a citizen of that country.

Industries will be promoted more as a divided country because tribalism will be relegated or minimized to the lowest level,if not outrightly eliminated and the government will always promote policies that will favors his people because they have same belief(Eg Igbos are egaliterian in nature while the northerners are oligarch in nature).

As a divided country, ministries(Embassies and federal government structures/offices)will be nearer to the people which will reduce the amount people spent on going to either lagos or Abuja for their visas to travel outside the country.

Lastly, but not the list to be continued later is that as a separate country hidden good talents will begin to emanate/come out because now tribalism is not longer the cankerwarm that will make their God given talents not to be hidden is gone,both the quota,nepotism et al will be gone and when this has taken place you will observe that inventions will begin and technologies will also improve.

So the summary of what am saying is that TRIBALISM has really eaten deep that no remedy can salvage the situation.

obailala:
My thinking is this, the myriad of problems facing Nigeria are very well known to all. Like you rightly mentioned, politicians in Nigeria are criminals and these criminal politicians are not restricted to any tribe or religion, they cut across the entire divide and I believe this dearth of patriotic leadership is the biggest problem. So in view of this, what I do not understand is how someone starts a movement preaching more hate along tribal lines as the solution to the problems. How on earth can dividing the country into a million parts solve these problems you've just highlighted?... Why do Africans always think that further division is a solution to a problem even when from history, it is a known fact that division only leads to further division?

To then compound it all, it is the tribe with the widest economic spread that is calling for this further division; it is a known fact that if there's a division in Nigeria today especially in the way the separatists are calling for it, the biggest economic and social losers would be Igbos but I just wonder why the principal agitators seem to ignore this fact. Sometimes it drives me to believe these main agitators are just never-do-well 'bad-belles' who want to pull all their 'doing-fine' brothers down. We have not sorted our leadership problems in the grassroot (States govts, LGAs and representatives), but someone thinks a division is an automatic panacea for all our problems?

Bros you wicked oo! 3000 topics

Truth is that the whole Biafran buzz was/is just emotions at play and it's devoid of any critical reasoning. In 1967, Biafra was a necessity for survival, in 2015, mbanu, it's just bitter emotions because GEJ lost an election to a born-to-rule hausa-fulani man. A psychopathic director then comes in the picture and spreads massive head spinning cargoes of inciting propaganda to make Igbos hate their very existence especially in a Nigeria. Sometimes these agitators make it seem like Buhari will rule Nigeria forever, for all we know, PMB may only be there for 4 years. But the emotional outbursts of these misguided ones has set the Igbo nation 50 years backwards in the political arena of Nigeria; it's really sad.
