The Civil war is the problem between the two ethnic group!!!

but before the civil war wasn't there hot competition between the two? political, economical and otherwise... if I am not mistaken, 3SC and Rangers were pretty much west pitted against east.... free education was Awo's way of catching up with the east in education... okpara was working to make igweocha the 'lagos' of the east ... (note that I said that I could be mistaken in those assertions before you start on me)... so I think it predates the civil war that a form of competetition begun between the east and the west, Nigeria can not contain the two, it seems... its almost like a fight needs to be fought... let the two tribes agree to fight and the loser will henceforth respect the other; no help from Britain, Russia or world powers... the north, perhaps, can join the yorubas.... and if some groups in the middle belt and south south want to join the igbos, they are free to... un will call/referee the fight and the fight will be televised. Again, the rules of war will be heeded by both sides, so no ojoro, one year to prepare and map out your strategies... and one year later, the winner will ... prostrated to by the loser.

Guys I'm just kidding.

I didn't know how to react when my friends gf said something which I didn't get and told her that I thought she said she was pregnant, and she exclaimed... Huh?! No way, i'll abort that s hit!"

it just reminded me that we are in a fallen world, especially, aint gonna mince words here... white people that pretty much have no real cultural values... or whose values are upside down when placed against those of us immigrants they call our countries 'third world' and love to bomb or invade when we don't want to join them in certain practises.

I aint saying I myself am perfect, I actually believe in certain I aint perfect myself, I mean, there are situations in which I wont flinch if I heard certain persons were killed... that is some killings are justified by me... but I just think that there is a large population that are so pro abortion, that in my uni's newspaper, a girl was writing of how she got an abortion, and returned to campus for some more indiscrimate s ex.... it saddens my heart at times... this blurb can go on and on and on... lol

You open your oily mouth to say Ojukwu did not declare only the eastern region as Biafra; and when I ask you to stand on your claim, you flee and claim I was asking you to do war research.

I know your type, lots of you are on NL that come to mix half-truths with pure lies, trying to deceive gullible minds and those that don't know better... , unfortunately for y'all, gone are those days that the media is dominated by one side and lies are told as fables that become truths to unsuspecting masses in your part of the country.

I am sure this is not your first and it wont be the last lie you would tell against Igbos and Ojukwu, but be rest assured that if you get away with it once, you wont get away with it all the time, mr. had-Ojukwu-seceded-only-with-the-eastern-region-no-one-would-have-cared.

The SE remains the most unfertile land.

sorry I don't speak or understand gorilla grunts and monkey chatter.

I don't believe you... isn't Obasanjo and Tokyo your kinsmen? what was it Obasanjo said when someone asked him why he refused to take a banana from a human being but took it when a monkey and gorilla offered him one?.. "Blood is thicker than water.. " don't be embarrassed that you now come online and lie onlyour oily behind.... I bu enwe nzuzu na epioghari n'ohia, o wu asi?

See u o, u think I have the time to be doing war research for u.. my frnd go do ur war research, google is ur frnd... there are lots of books on the war...but in summary, everyone knows that oil was a major factor in the war... ur hero went into the war thinking he was smarter... but he was outplayed...

"
but I just asked you a simple question:

You said that if ojukwu had seceded only with the eastern region, no one would have cared...

so you are saying that Ojukwu did not declare only the eastern region as Biafra?

Yes or no?

I just want to make sure that that is what you are saying & mean.

ba7man:
People also rejoice when a boastful, loud mouthed, arrogant man gets his butt kicked.

... and yollobar's version of kicking-butt is the government using bulldozers and destroying shops of traders?

A smart Nigerian said that anytime a yollobar rejoices that he won something, look very closely, there is an imbalance somewhere... what they call 'ojoro' ... wise words that have been proven time again in this sham of a country.

Call us proud and arrogant, we probably are, but in the words of Onyeka Onwenu... onye ihe na ewe ihe, ya biko wegbu ya!... osukosu nwa mkpi, ya biko sughbuo ya!!!!? and somebody says..?

omonnakoda:
Yes like those haters waiting to see Tinubu humiliated or those spineless scum hoping to see the SW disgraced in the new government? You are so correct

You know I am. You are also correct, I feel the same way about Nigerian politicians, they are all scumbags

I actually re-read your post and noticed what you said in bold... which answered my question to you: Ojukwu declared the eastern region Biafra and you said no one would have cared? Are you making these statements because that was what you were told? or how did you come about to believe that Ojukwu did not secede only with the Eastern region?
(even though there wer Igbo communities in the mid-west)... just wondering

Ok to be more politically correct, there were -initially 3 regions, northern, eastern and western, the midwestern which are the minorities were carved out of the western region... so I still reiterate that [b][/b]if ojukwu had wanted to secede with the eastern region, which was the gully erosion infested land, nobody wud av cared.. but once he dared to come to the midwestern region which was part of the western region and hence Nigeria cuz of oil greed, that's where he met his waterloo...so if u pple rly want biafra, jus go jejely with those 5 states..dont look in south south region, it's Nigeria

Maybe they are taken on by surprise... but I totally agree, all I kept imagining in my head is how I would be taking out these demons one by one as they enter my house... wait for them, as soon as they open the door and come in, blow at least one of them to pieces, two people don't enter the door at a time, so as ruffcoin sang... take them one by one...this is sad. the communities really need need to take their lives (security) in their own hands.

Super1Star:
If the Nigerian state fails to protect, don't you have leaders that can rally the youth to form a militia to defend your people. Just allowing some bastards to kill you like a chicken, without putting up a resistance or decimating the attackers, is sheer stupidity.

When you defend yourselves effectively, they will think twice before coming again. You will be sending a message of not being scared to die to the attackers.

It is time for the people of Jos and Benue to rise up and defend themselves. If help will not come from Nigerian Govt, help yourself. The only remedy for insanity is more madness. That is the only language these blood sucking demons of attackers would understand.

Thanks for the clarification, one question based on your response: Do you know whether the war had begun before Ojukwu's incursion into the mid-west? in other words, when Ojukwu declared the eastern region alone as Biafra, did Nigeria accept and let it be?

I have said it before that when the agberos and the REAL omoniles get in the mix, no amount of empty chest beating can challenge or pacify the HOST. Igbos need to tread softly and respect their host as others do.

So are you saying that if Igbos had respected their "hosts", respected the oba and didn't call Lagos a no man's land that it is, the Mushin LGA would not have taken the step of renovating Ladipo?

It is really laughable that you all see the governments acts against civilians as some show of triumph over the Igbo Lagosians... I guess this goes to show how dependent the Yorubars are on the government, the way some northern state governments dolls out rams to it people... interesting stuff.a

You know that this your lie about education has been busted time without number, abi?

All the ish you guys gloat about thinking you are better than others has shown that you are actually behind while others lead.

If you repeat this your lie again then your eye will open when I show you and you'll see the evidence in the results that have been made public. whether it is WAEC, post doctoral etc... you guys in the SW are followers in education, not leaders; at all.

Nobody is against igbo seceding.. if it's just the 5 red mud, gully and erosion infested 5 states but u cannot secede with the minorities, those are part of Nigeria.. if ojukwu had asked for those 5 states am sure he wud av been obliged

were there (5) states available in 1967?

Or did you mean to say Ojukwu should have started carving out out the places he believed were Igbo (speaking)?

explain a lil bit, try being correct with your info. though...

A big, or prosperous man will not rejoice or gloat if he sees something bad happen to a poor man or beggar; but a jealous, poor man will be glad to see the prosperous, big man's calamity.

Recall the poor, Islamic countries rejoicing when 911 happened in the US?

Like Palestine rejoicing if anything bad happens to Israel that dominates them 101%?

Need I say more?

Good luck getting back to him. The problem with my good friend, virginfinder is what when the result comes out and its not what he experred, he is no where to be found.
(or maybe he logs in with a different ID, I dunno)... he lays low until another Yoruba vs. whomever arises again...

FreeGlobe:
Very well... I will get back to you when the results are in but I know you will find another explanation smh

So when you say "*picture*" you want people to believe the story just because you attach a prison cell? Desperately trying to avoid the "Pic or I don't believe it" gang.

The smart thing to do is to wait for more information.

Tension in Anambra as 7 Boko Haram Inmates Escape From Ekwuluobia Prison.
Story flying around now even though we at we did not confirm the content whole and entire especially with regards to escaping of Boko Haram inmates have a glance .
At least seven Boko Haram prison inmates have allegedly escaped from Ekwulobia prison, Anambra State, reports news48hrs.com.
According to an insider, who spoke under condition of anonymity, the seven prisoners sneaked out of the jail yesterday with the help of some unnamed authorities, and headed to unknown destinations.
This is even as another source claimed that the alleged escapees distributed selves to unleash mayhem on Anambra, Enugu, Imo, Abia, Ebonyi, Delta and Rivers state.
Meanwhile, business activities were paralyzed on Thursday as marketers and traders shut means of livelihood for 24 hours demonstrating over continuous stay of Boko Haram suspects at Ekwulobia maximum prison in Anambra State.
Our correspondents, who went through the major streets in five South Eastern States’ reported that no single soul was seen in the markets even as over two million traders under the aegis of South East Amalgamated Traders Association (SEAMATA) took to streets with placards of different inscriptions singing sorrowful songs over federal government negligence to their cries to relocate deposited Boko Haram members as matter of immediacy.
The placards read among other things; “Buhari, Don’t Pollute Our Lands with Boko Haram”; “Southeast is Peaceful, please leave us alone”; “Southeast Governors, please Come to our aid”; “Boko Haramisim is man inhumanity to man, President please take them away from us”.
They sang, “say no to Boko Haram, say no to Boko Haram”; “Iwe newe-anyi…(we are angry), Boko Haram please leave our lands now else we explore”, among other things.
Speaking to newsmen, the President of SEAMATA and leader of the protesters, Chief Okwudili Ezenwankwo wondered why the suspects were sent to Ekwuluobia prison which is not even a maximum prison.
Chief Ezenwankwo, while stressing that the Boko Haram mission is to cause chaos, tension and deaths, says they reject them with perfect hatred because they perfect man inhumanity to man.
He said they are worst of Boko Haramists imported from Chad and Niger Republic into Ekwuluobia and called on the Southeast governors to join them in the war to return them to north where they belong to because their coming has brought in so many tension in Igbo land as marketers and people are now scampering for safety.
Also speaking, Chief Gozie Akudolu, Coordinator of Traders in the Southeast and Chuma Eluchari, Secretary General of Traders in Anambra State, implored President Muhammadu Buhari to take action instantly as they could not afford to close shops for fourth time after doing repeatedly thrice to draw his attention to their plights.
“Boko Haramists are endangered species. They are terrorists of international repute. We don’t need to harbour them here. We direct international organizations and human rights activists to join them in the advocacy. ”
On his part, Mrs. Promise Ezeigwe, the Woman Leader of Anambra State Market Traders Association explained that business have been shut down indefinitely, people seriously relocating from Anambra to other states in the South South and South West, since intrusion of the insurgents in Anambra.
In an interview with news48hrs.com, the President General, Ekwuluobia Traders and Allied Matters, Fidelis Nnofu disclosed that all primary and secondary schools in Ekwuluobia metropolis, especially those in dormitories have been recalled homes by their parents to avoid a case of Chibok Girls kidnapped in schools.

Do you recall when the news of their transfer initially broke? and how people said it was Radio Biafra that was spreading the news as it was a lie?

How long after was the news confirmed to be true?

You guys will call this "unnecessary tension" but when them start causing harvoc,you're no where to be found.

Lilimax:
Hoping that this is a false report

Btw, why are we raising unnecessary tension and fear in a relatively peaceful environment
Whom do we believe?

I cant believe I just liked your post...guess its all in the interest of keeping or getting a country that works that we need to overlook differences and unite.. as one.

dayo23:
For once we have to put our house in order, APC can't afford to damaged what it has suffered so much to put together, I believe their are people among the party I mean high ranking leader who are not happy about the relationship between Tinubu and Buhari, they are ready to do the undue just to destroy that relationship, I really pray Tinubu and President Buhari don't fall to their traps! The both of them worked hard to be were they are today, many of us never believed in the emergence of the merger but as God may have it, we have the last laugh.
Inside of me I know Mr President is a man of his word, and I expect him to keep to the bargain with his close pal Tinubu, am not saying he should be loyal to Tinubu, Both of them should put Nigeria first in everything they do, I believe Tinubu meant well for Nigeria but it just the way he goes about it by getting it at all cost that the problem. Tinubu is highly intelligent and he is a good reader of the game, he must have known about some element within the party that are working to bring him down, right from the very first day he influence President Buhari candidature.
I also hope President Buhari knows their are many of his collegues who are praying for his downfall and will b working Underground to do that at all cost.
He should work more with those who stood by him during the struggle and not those who just joined his bandwagon after he was elected by the people.






Nigeria will be great again.

All those that just love to hurl curses at T.A. Orji and believed all the lies championed by The Sun usually ignore this type of news; but I haven't lost hope in them haters, they will come up with another story since the letter they had that predicted Ikuku as speaker, T.A.'s wife as commissioner of finance etc etc have kuola afo n'ala in this one.

As an Umuahian (not just by virtue of GCU but as an indigene as well) I still rate T.A. the best governor the state has ever had; and I hope this governor surpasses him... its all for the betterment of ndi Abia...(God's own state)

as someone whom read the whole article, I guess its only fair that I comment... nice write-up... the only thing missing which I was curious about was if all your Igbo room mates at camp (and beyond, afterwards) confirmed or dismissed any (pre) notions you had of em?
