PROUDIGBO:
Looks like they did a good job on that road. Though i don’t know why they couldn’t add sidewalks and cover those ugly gutters! Nothing screams ‘3rd world’ quite like open gutters! They’re not only unsightly, but unsanitary too!

The state govt is more interested in their propaganda army having something to promote than making this city the standard bearer of Igbo cities.

Imagine a state govt that hypes 600 meter roads in a city of 1.5 million people.

Aba has less paved roads today than it did 40 years ago and that is shocking when it should have 4 or 5 times that amount. Lagos has many many more times the roads it did 40 years ago and in Aba we are still talking about the roads from 40 years ago which were actually good then. Obohia, Ohanku, Port Harcourt Road, Ngwa road, Eziukwu etc.

The city had only a small proportion of this population back then when these were the main roads. Extreme mediocrity

amuwo1980:
To you and I indeed , when u build railways connecting the country up to the ancestral country of the maximum ruler leaving a part of the country known for commerce and suddenly u remember them with a planned substandard rail track.
To you and i indeed when am being referred derisively as Biafran boys giving u a glimpse into the workings of the powers that be .
To you and I indeed when no body of same culture , language and origin is involved in taking decisions concerning me at the highest echelons of government be it security , politically or other wise .
To you and I indeed when it is the policy of the government to suffocate and stifle me with corrupt policing checkpoints and military harassment, I remember years back in a public transport from ph to aba ,an Hausa policeman was angry with the whining passengers and he shout out at all of us , you igbos are our slaves in this Nigeria.
Mister you know what am talking about , the struggle to be free of Nigeria by the igbos now is a matter of life and death for all Nigerians not just igbos.
The world have changed so much from 1967 and the British can not sway as much influence as then , arms market is more plentiful from Eastern Europe to South Africa.
Nigeria will disintegrate, igbos will break free from this yoke of 50yrs plus , you can take it to the bank.

You don’t start a war in your own house based on bravado and emotions. It leads to nothing but self destruction.

If the western or industrial powers back a United Nigeria you cannot disintegrate it no matter what you think. If you get them to back Nigerian disintegration it will happen but it won’t come from destroying the south East as is currently starting to happen.

Emotions should always be subservient to sound reasoning and judgement for good outcomes

If the attacks going on continue and worsens you can bid all these manufacturing by Chinese in Aba goodbye

ogwumgbe:
Don't cry more than the bereaved you hypocrite. When the useless government was killing unarmed protesters, you people were cheering them. Now that unknown gunmen has surfaced to avenge the blood of those killed, you are here giving useless advice, go to hell and burn to ashes you idiot and leave us alone to be like Borno

People in Igbo land don’t want to turn it into war torn Bornu. They want peace, law and order to do their business and commerce

If people want to turn a place into Borno please leave the southeast alone and go somewhere else

Enyimbafc:
Those potopotor people want to leave ur useless islamic,terrorist and corrupt country but una terrorist no wan allow them leave ur zoo.NIGERIA must catch fire.

Guy only Igbo land will catch fire if this madness continues. Enyimba FC would have to relocate to Lagos or Abuja soon to play their games.

Anybody who supports this insanity has lost their minds. All these looted arms will show up in violent robberies soon

Commotfornigeri:
They can only intimidate keke drivers... I dont think the police can stand ESN.

ESN's independence is what makes it perfect for igboland.



It seems you dont know igbo people will prefer a biafra worse than syria than a nigeria glossy like japan.

Igbos will rebuild biafra.

Guy speak for yourself. If you want to live in a war torn area please relocate to one of the many war torn zones in the world including the North East of NIgeria and leave peaceful and industrious Igbo people to live their normal lives

EzeNri:
I was in Aba when a joint team of the army and police massacred hundreds of IPOB members praying at National High School, PH road for the release of MNK.

What was their crime? They were praying to God to release MNK for them.

Go to YouTube and watch the gory videos.

I was in Aba when my close friend and others were shot died.

Was there crime?

They were protesting peacefully with Biafran flags asking for the release of MNK.

I was in Aba between 2015 and 2017 and I saw our people perished, killed in cold blood for just protesting with flags.

I have not business with IPOB and will never do, but I will never pity Nigerian Police and Army.

You don’t have to pity the police or army to know what is going on is an unquantifiable disaster for Igbo people and of no benefit to Igbo people

This madness has to stop ASAP

Igboid:
You are not making sense.
So rather than build on your success, you would rather have it demolished and restart allover again.
You can reject Nigeria vehemently and still build wealth and develop.
Catalonia is an example.
You don't need to turn SE to Sambisa to show you want Biafra badly. You turn her to most developed region in Nigeria to show Nigerians you are a class above them and want no unity with them.

Good you believe UGM is not ESN, because I'm here praying and hoping they are not. Because if they are, they will lose support base in SE quickly. Not even their shouts of Sabo on dissenting Igbo voices will save them.

We want Biafra and we want development. We also know we can have them both same time. We will not exchange one for the other.
If MNK and IPOB can not deliver both of them without sacrificing one, then they should step aside.

Simple.

Simple obvious thing and yet some people here are applauding the destruction of Igbo land as a way to get back to the North when you can simply make Igbo land the richest in Nigeria they are making it the poorest and most wretched with these horrific attacks

Insanity

ogwumgbe:
Face your dilapidated region and leave us alone with our chest beating. That's how we survived the alliance of world powers and the useless zoo in war against us and we are still standing. Don't cry more than the bereaved bro. I didn't tell you people to submit to the Fulanis out of cowardice. We refuse to submit to them bro

Anarchy and unbridled criminality in the Southeast hurts Fulani how?

Halifaxguy:
We igbos don't know the kind of calamities that will befall us soon with the way the youths in South east sympathizes with ipob and their ESN terrorists. These guys will set south east on fire pretty soon, with the way and manner they are acquiring arms and guns. This guys will turn to the boko haram and bandits of south east soon, time will tell. I pity all you people cheering Nnamdi Kalu and his terrorists members , when the time comes all of una go feel the heat, south east will be very hot for everyone then. This guys will eventually use these guns on you sympathizers. Because the reality is Biafra is not coming thru Nmadi Kalu Ipobs and may never come. The ESN you guys are cheering now will soon use those guns to kidnap your loved ones, kill and robber your brothers and sisters. That's the more reasons that sane igbos not the stupid ones that have been brainwashed by Kalu should rise and in strong voice condemn NMK and his gullible supporters. We should not allow emotions to cloud our logical thinking, we should not allow Nnamdi Kalu to set igboland on fire, because if we do na we igbos go suffer the disasters that will befall us.
Go and learn what is currently happening to Anglophone part of Cameroon. Now the rebels they cheered on is now killing their own people that they said they are fighting for their freedoms. Economic activities have been totally crippled in that region. This will be what will happen to my beloved igboland soon courtesy of ipobs and ESN terrorists and some foolish igbo youths are still cheering them for an imaginary Biafra that they will not realize.

Leave ignorant morons alone. How low are some people’s IQ?

IPOB/ESN can only deliver armed robbery, kidnapping, rape, terror and death for the southeast and Igbo people in the long run. There is no chance in this world they bring any Biafra but some fools here think that killing police officers and unleashing anarchy while destroying economic activities in the south East will achieve something against Fulani or achieve Biafra

My heart aches for Igbo people. Imagine people following the rantings of someone in a distant land and setting their house on fire in the name of “liberation”

Colonelswitz101:
The last time innocent lives were lost in the fulani invasion of Oyigbo, it was wicked good for nothing souls like you that were supporting the genocide. I witnessed first hand the unnecessary killings and harrasment of unarmed civilians by your ragtag illitrate army while you and your likes called MNK a toothless bulldog and kept cheering on the zoo army. Well, adighi agwa ochi nti na agha esula. Nigeria will be brought down to it's knees this time and you with your family will not be left out. That bloodshed that you guys are looking for all this while, you will get it. This isn't 1967 and if you are hoping to see a repeat of what happened in 1967 to 70, then you really have a very low IQ. If the Nigerian government think we do not have the capability to march then trigger for trigger, them they are simply living in bondage of their ignorance. It has begun.

Only a mad man starts war by setting fire to his own house. Only people with extremely low IQ can support this madness.

Criminals roaming freely in the East does what to Northerners exactly?

sokera:
yes you are right , if Okorocha , Ngige , Peter Obi, and Orji Uzor Kalu even GEJ are not in prison then no Nigerian should be in prison ...

The same person that tells you not to vote and to boycott elections now says why are so and so not in jail?

Absolute madness I can’t explain. These people should leave the southeast alone

Nairalandmonika:
What state are u from?
My guess should be from one of the Niger delta state, u can't say what's happening in Niger is not affecting ur state.
Herdsmen kidnap in edo regularly, just yesterday herdsmen kidnap some students in sapela delta state, this thing is getting closer to what ever state u think u are.

It's time Niger delta make a stance if we want to have our nation or join biafra, at this point, one Nigeria is madness n it will be absolutely stupid to still believe in one Nigeria.

Only a blind fool supports this madness being perpetuated in the southeast.

Igbo people wake up the region is descending into chaos!!!! Stop following idiocy

Amumaigwe:
Between Kanu that is mobilizing to defend his fatherland and Tnubu who is sacrificing his own people for his selfish political gains, who is the lunatic?

A lunatic is one who thinks unleashing murderers, rapists and armed robbers on the southeast is somehow a positive retaliation against Fulani’s or Tinubu.

Anybody who supports this madness should not relocate to Lagos or Abuja or outside the southeast for safety as the carnage starts

Fejoku:
The police have never arrested any herdsmen and no court in Nigeria has pronounced a sentencing on any terrorist fulani despite them killing thousands of innocent villagers all around the Middlebelt and southern Nigeria. What then is the function of the police? Is it only in the extortion of motorists and oppression of the suffering masses? Do not cry for the people of the SE. The people are tired of burying their young men killed extrajudicially. They're tired of the extortion and oppression. Every oppression has a day of recompense and this possibly may be the day.
If you haven't condemned the wickedness from all quarters against the region, do not complain when the young men rise in confrontation.

Guy this is extremely stupid reasoning with all due respect.

Unleashing mayhem on the southeast is the worst possible outcome for Igbo people. Some joker living securely in first world countries in peace and tranquility has been telling people to unleash carnage and destroy Igbo land in the name of what? Buhari this and Fulani that? How stupid is this?

Igbo people celebrating “unknown gunmen” and police station attacks are celebrating the demise of Igbo land and Igbo prosperity

How can people be such fools?

ka1y:
are u not saden by Fulani terrorists killing people in the south east and south south also?

What has this got to do with destroying Igbo cities and civil society by attacking police officers and freeing thousands of criminals?

These attacks on civil society in Igbo land is far worse than anything Fulani

So sad some people are so myopic they don’t see it

mystery22:
Most people in that prison were imprisoned illegally by the useless fulani commisioner

Buhari government is inhumane and nepotist,go to the north and see no fulani in prison,rather they are forming groups and preparing for the war ahead

Have you lost your mind? You unleash hardened criminals, murderers and rapists on Igbo cities because of Buhari being nepotistic? Because of Fulani?

The type of things I see here makes me weep. Igbo people celebrating freeing deadly criminals who would soon turn Owerri, Aba and Onitsha into no go zones and more Igbo people will soon flee to Lagos and Abuja for safety like they did during the kidnapping crisis

The insanity here is mind boggling

Any Igbo person supporting this madness is wishing suicide on themselves and Igbo people in general.

Fools here saying Fulani this Fulani that. How dumb can you be? How is destroying Igbo cities, civil society and unleashing a massive amount of criminals on the streets going to help any Igbo person regardless of Buhari, Nepotism or Herdsmen?

Are people really this crazy?

tot:
Yada yada yada

Lol. Reality is a very stubborn thing isn't it. Delusion is no substitute for it

tot:
The interest on African loots in Swiss and European banks contributes to growing their economies, of course that's a big benefit.

Switzerland is over $750 billion GDP. Its is twice Nigeria's GDP and they are only a few million people. Tiny countries like Holland, Belgium and Switzerland have more agricultural output than the whole African continent never mind industrial or technological output

You are a joker if you think the country is rich because of some deposit from your local tinpot dictator

budaatum:
No one is here claiming anyone looks like them. I bet even you don't look like very very black me, but that won't stop me standing up for you if you are racially mistreated and go on Oprah or post a thread about it. Damn, if it were Kate in Meghan's shoes, many of us will stand up for Kate, as many stood up for Harry's white mother Diana.

Point out whatever you want like everyone else is doing. Just don't poke your inferiority complex on everyone else

I have no problem with you standing up for Kate or Meghan or whomever

I responded to a comment which was based on a lie. That people in Europe dont do mixed ancestry. As if that somehow negates the fact that when you see someone with a lot of European ancestry we cant tell them apart from us and dont know that they look different from us. As if that is a right reserved exclusively for people labelled white

Actually inferiority complex is accepting labels foreigners made for you like "black" and pretending Meghan Markel and even her baby who looks more like Harry and the queen of England is someone who looks like you just because some foreigners said so. Otherwise why are people posting rubbish like one drop and asking us to accept that? Only someone with inferiority complex would accept nonsense like that

budaatum:
You will benefit from reading more before jumping to conclusions in an attempt to sound intelligent or those who read more than you might think otherwise.

I know that. The only people who would accept this are people who believe they are contaminants. Are you a contaminant that if you mix with someone else your offspring is contaminated?

If not why should Nigerians be told that someone like Meghan Markel who doesnt even look like Nigerians looks just like them when they know that that is a lie

Only people with inferiority complex will accept such a thing. Meghan Markel walking side by side with Kate doesnt even look too different from her and definately looks different from Nigerians. Why cant we point this out?

This is how you end up with a non functional country called Nigeria because its full of "the blacks". As if ethnic nations in Nigeria dont know who is similar or campactible with them

budaatum:
Oyinbo does not do "half black". In fact, neither do black people.

To oyinbo even ⅛ is black, and to blacks blacks are black and proud. In UK, at least.

This is stupidity of the highest order. Why should foreigners tell you who looks like you? Are they your God? You dont think the average Nigerian knows who looks foreign in their society like Meghan Markel?

If Meghan Markel walked through a Nigerian village with Harry most people there will call her and Harry Oyinbo. She doesnt look like Nigerians either (who dont have a foreign parent)

This whole nonsense that others dictate to us who is part of us is how you get an unworkable country called Nigeria.

HellVictorinho:
A race is larger than a continent.
The members of a race can be found in different continents.
The members of a race have a common place of origin.

Again you have failed to define what "race" means. Give me a scientific definition please.

Of course people can travel from one continent to another. All humans have a common place of origin too so I guess all humans are the same race

HellVictorinho:
Races exist.

Define what constitutes race. Race is 18th century trash invented to justify slavery

It doesn't exist Its a vague social construct

There is nothing like race in reality anyways. Just a social construct.

People have different backgrounds, cultures and issues. Let everybody answer their fathers name

Elliot2:
Lol. I laugh. Migrant blacks think they are better and more hardworking than black Americans. Stop the jokes!

No

The issue is that you expect people who have a totally different culture, way of life, values and upbringing from you to somehow reflect your mindset otherwise they are supposedly "coons"

That is extremely stupid. Why would someone who is different from you in so many ways share your same exact mindset as you?

Shokoloko:
In Atlanta, arrest quotas allegedly served as the source of the bungled drug raid that killed a 92-year-old African American woman named Kathryn Johnston. After obtaining a no-knock warrant based on an informant's claim that he bought drugs at Johnston's house, police entered the apartment and killed her. They found no drugs, but planted marijuana in her home and submitted cocaine as evidence that they falsely said they purchased from the home. In a lawsuit by Johnston's estate against the city, one of the officers involved in the killing testified that Atlanta had a quota policy that was written, distributed, and publicized in his department. Other officers sued the city, claiming police were offered pizza, DVDs, and shorter work days for meeting their targets.

There is a quota for number of tickets for stopped drivers and revenue from paying fines in some departments. There is no arrest quota by race or color

All this is more of a woe is me mentality to excuse failure.

I am against generalizations as well like in the title of this post but why does someone expect somebody from a different background as you to have the same mentality as you? Stupidity like calling someone "coon" who wasnt even raised similar to you and comes from a different reality and background is incomprehensible. It assumes you are supposed to have a certain viewpoint that you are deviating from.

Why should a Nigerian share the same view point as a black American? Totally different experiences and backgrounds and cultures

LadyGCrueDKilaB:
Lmao what a stupid tap dancing coon that thinks coonery would score him cheap points with the pales

The person making money and succeeding in the US doesn't care about this rubbish that you wrote. Look at the stupidity you are writing. "Coon", "wont love you" etc. WTF is all this rubbish? As if he is related to you and has to exhibit your silly mentality. He isn't related to you in any way whatsoever

Keep writing trash and not go and succeed in life with all the opportunities around you.

Shokoloko:
Do you know that african American women have the highest mortality rate in America even when they have the money to pay for medicine and care. They are attended to LAST.

Do you know that there is a monthly quota in the US police of how many african American boys are arrested. There is no quota for white boys.

Do you know where the word "m*therf*cker" comes from. Your white people forced boys to sleep with their mothers to raise children to work in the slave farm.

My dear if you come from a family that saw these horrors for 400 years, it will take God to restore your thinking faculty

Stop telling yourself lies. There is no quota of arrest by color anywhere in the US

Optional09:
The government should listen to the Biafran people. The governor of a state is not the States

Speak to Nnamdi Kanu now if you want peace.

Nnamdi Kanu represents the voice of the SE people. All governor in Nigeria were not elected by the people Nnamdi Kanu was elected as supreme by the SE people and he must be listened to.

Who made him the voice of Igbo people?

Most igbo people like having peace in their region and like to do their business in security. A society where hoodlums attack police stations, kill officers and cart away weapons is headed to anarchy. This has to be put to an end immediately to save the region
