I don't believe this was from buhari... The speech is it'self divisive. |
greatgod2012:protest? No no, there will be no protests, his opposition are not used to protest hence we going to have only news paper, television and online talk shows. Those that like protest maybe told to have patience as everything is yet to change. |
400billionman:lol you mean say hotels na epu ka ero? Biko ndi Ahoada kwesiri iwe tuu aka o. It is not good for the image of Rivers and ndi be anyi in general. |
Confused op. Op if you are not from delta, rivers or bayelsa then you are not a Niger deltan unless you are taking about Nigerian proposed niger delta. If yes then you are the worse joke of the century. Need i remind you that imo and abia are also niger delta. Pls don't get it twisted Hausa/Fulani careless about you but power to the power/leadership is greater than money. |
joborskill:I'm yet to understand you this guy what exactly are you talking about. I think you are just all mouth, i mean you are very heavily mouthed. People like you will still make derogatory comment if nothing was done to the said stabber anyway thats not my problem for now. * I just read through your self acclaimed peaceful and well mouthed diplomatic approach. You were quick to start taking about yoruba as an epitome of peace without remembering the region has been an epitome of violence even before 1966. Rigging and violence in the west was what lead to the fall of the civilian rule... Stop playing devil's advocate and say what ever you want in short and clear terms. History has always shown that talkative are alway cunning and dangerous. People should not take their words as they always have many alternatives but one thing is constant about talkatives: which is their cowardice and inability to take a stand... |
Propaganda. Op stop comparing Gej to buhari they are not the same. Where ever you look at it there and will never be same. You should focus on buhari, pray for him to succeed. He is having a highly insecure nigeria which is no more restricted to a region, you should not be found putting up more problems for him ok. I'm still giving him (buhari) a benefit of doubt but for now he is nothing but a leader on the path of failure. No need writing long episode |
Yorubanews:why disturb yourself everyday and night talking about them. One thing is for sure no matter how you go about it you cannot relegate these people in Nigeria. Marginalising any will always have ugly impact on the nation that is why everyone's interest always get to the roof anytime there is tension between or within them. Their ability to gather a significant population for a course and stand by it through tick and thin cannot be over ruled, so i see no reason telling me no one takes us or them serious. |
Yorubanews:childish behaviour or utterances should not be used in such important case pls. Stop this childish behaviour pls. |
alfred5:that is where you don't get it, i will not say some certain people didn't celebrating but igbo were not celebrating anything. See There are things you don't understand about people when they take you as enemy. Take a look at nairaland: let say if an igbo dance necked at the public you will see too many derogatory statement even though 30 of theirs have done that in time past. Mind you fear of Igbo dominance didn't start after 1966 coup, it started way before that. Biko je gụọ akwụkwọ gbasara ndu ndi igbo topụ enwe ịdịpenda. Gụọ gbasara ogbugbu ndi igbo na ugwu awụsa. |
alfred5:ok, nwanna uzo isi achụ ihe a, adịghị mma. Onweghi ebe ọzọ ị hụrụ ewezuga naịralandị? Ihe gbasara ọgụ biafra a bụghị ihe iche ọ bụ. Tule ihe ndia nke ọma * ole otu osi dị gị na ndi igbo ga a puta lụwa ọgụ na-enweghi ihe kpatara ya. |
gidgiddy:You made a great point... Gowon once said recently that ojukwu said what was contrary to the accord that was why the war broke out... I was like how will a sensible man make such comment, was it that there was no other way he could air his view. I think amb. Is also having this warp mind set. Though i don't believe he is Igbo. |
@alfred5 this mis interpretations and the hype of negative events pertaining to Igbo lead to the counter coup and killing of igbos and other southerns in the north. Ironsi was killed on July 29, 1966. But the war was actual spurned by these two factors, *the incessant killing of Igbo in Northern Nigeria *the refusal of the then military head General Gowon to mobilize security personnel to stop the killings. You see the coup wasn't exactly what lead to war. |
alfred5:You read political science clearly has nothing to do with your biases. I have read, discussed and studied some books on biafra war and i found out there are too many inconsistence in most of the stories especially on this 1966 coup... As an political analyst you should know that january 15,1966 coup was not the cause of the war but just mere event that lead to some misinterpretation of the nationalist effort... alfred5:Before i will write anything let me show you a cut of late major C. K. Nzeogwu's speech on January 16, 1966. " We seized power to stamp out tribalism, nepotism and regionalism...there were five of us in the inner circles and we planned the details. On saturday morning the officers and men thought they were going out only on a night exercise. I was not until they were out in the bush that they were told the full details of the plan. They had bullets, they had been issued with their weapons but i was unarmed. If they disagreed they could have shot me..." clearly it shows that the coup wasn't done by one ethnic group but was lead by mostly igbo as out of the five inner circle 4 was igbo and 1 yoruba.(do not forget the soldier lead for the coup were mostly northerns). ... January coup was given different interpretations, at first everyone had it as nationalist effort Not until BBC hausa gave it its ethnic terms. It did not see it as bid to clean govt but as an Ibo power play to smash the northern grip on the country... There was a media hype on Igbo activities, the north elites used the media effectively to smear the image of Igbo's. | |
alfred5 you opinion is highly needed here. We will want you to take us on a lecture on 1966 coup |
... |
Why Ironsi seized power *There was ensuing chaos following the january 15 1966 military coup due to the ethnic colouration. * With President Nnamdi Azikiwe lost of intervention in turn hampering civilian rule, ironsi had little or no choice than to take over power from senate president Nwafor Orizu who was the acting president in the absence of Azikiwe who was on official |
Igbo involvements... *1966 coup was carried out by junior officiers, lead by mostly Igbo stock (4 igbo majors and 1 yoruba major). Nzeogwu actually led a group of mostly northern soldiers to coup. Clearly the grieviances here is that no Igbo high profile politician died in the coup. *Major general Johnson-Thomas Umunnakwe Aguiyi-ironsi stopped the coup in lagos and was against the coup. *lt-colonel chukwuemeka stopped the coup in the north and was against the coup also. * All the coup plotters were arrested except Ifeajuna. |
laviecontinue:really? Hmmm was what he wrote how really happened? Just ask yourself how a whole tribe/region will slide to war just because of ojukwu or any man's ego. The author is well aware that people have little or no knowledge of what happened that is why he made so much blanket statements. Ask him questions not just saying it is true. |
Pls i call on any igbo that must comment here to shone any form of insult or name calling what so ever. Pls present your views objectively. @alfred5 are you the author of this article? If yes, pls tell us more about this your Igbo coup. |
Biased report: I may not know this writer but i think his write up is too biased. He clearly painted Igbos as villan here. So technically you are telling us that the the indiscrimate killing of civilians was the best response from a military? You made a blanket comment of Ojukwu declaring Secession of Eastern region... There must be something missing which you technically ignored. You clearly did not state how and why abori accord came to place I guess Ojukwu ego was also involved when there was break down of law within the rank and file of the military? Ojukwu ego also made sure there were peaceful exit of northern soldiers from the the then eastern region. Ojukwu ego also was what made the your all diplomatic Gowon to ignore the accord or seek other diplomatic options is he feels not satisfied... Guess Ojukwu ego was also what caused Nigeria to break the Abori accord, i made the first shoot. I hate when people write biased document about events just because the can put up things on paper especially on a very sensitive matter like this. MR amb. Pls go take another class on your civil war history and this time don't just go there this biased. |
Incoherent and mischievous write-up. |
Keneking:myopic! You are talking just because you can talk... Clearly you do not know when and how Nigeria started having real freedom of speech... Anyway don't forget that in the same buhari administration social media bill was brought up by your said APC senator. |
Was extremely touched by the number 32, where the turkish was teaseing the kids with bread. |
Can someone give me the number of this man umahi, we need to sort out things. MODIFIED I have just gone to okezie ikeazu & ifeanyi ugwuanyi facebook handles. I called on them to caution this uburu man. Making reckless comments just for it's sake. |
HopeAtHand:Playing devil's advocate. IKWERE is never the largest ethnic group in rivers state. I read down in this thread where you are claiming cousin, no one is ikwere cousin. Ikwere tribe is ikwere tribe which consist of only two local govt in rivers state (unless you are talking of ikwere clan which is a sub group of Igbo tribe). There is nothing relating ikwere tribe to Igbo tribe or your so called igboid(as if there is something like igboid) unless you are talking of ikwere clan. Like i said no single ikwere man can come out and say he/she is not igbo and win anything in rivers. Tell me one that have said such and remain relevant. Or you could go tell wike to say such and watch how he will fall like a pack of card (That is if you will come out alive). For the record Ikwere tribe is irrelevant in Rivers but Igbo tribe in which ikwere clan is among is the most relevant and most populated in rivers state. Pls note the difference between Ikwere tribe and Ikwere clan. |
HopeAtHand:huhuhu see ikwere man claiming 5 million in rivers state. If you are 5 million how many ijaw, igbo and other minority tribes come be? Hahaha dey there dey day dream. Etche(echie), ndoki,ndoni, egbema are not ikwere but Igbo tribe. The most painful thing is that no single ikwere leader can openly say "i am not igbo" do you know why? He will lose wolfly to anyone who claim igbo. So better keep your minority ass in Diobu, rumuogba or any of your rumu's minority ikwere tribe. No offense to ikwere Igbo brothers am only refering to confused people from ikwere minority tribe. Yes i mean the minority that always make noiseRecommendation:HopeAtHand you fit still follow your people discuss about you clan or your can choose to remain your minority tribe hahaha. Mr we SS. https://m.facebook.com/permalink.php?id=430670643680677&story_fbid=479324262148648 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogba–Egbema–Ndoni https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etchehttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogba_people |
HopeAtHand:My arguement is that you should not parade yourself or tribe as ss spokesman like you are doing here on nairaland and the thread. It is about time you note that ikwere is but a minority tribe in south south. |
HopeAtHand:I just told you that you should focus on ikwere and you talking non sense. Ikwere is not SS but is in SS. It is actually a minority tribe in south south. The majority tribe in south south are Ijaw, Igbo and Ibibio, you see i see no reason why minority tribe like yours is making noise shouting south south. HopeAtHand:Also ikwere is not rivers but one of the major tribes in rivers along side the Ijaw and Igbo. Like i said focus on your ikwere and stop talking about ss as if you own it. |
People like HopeAtHand should focus on ikwere as there is nothing in common with ikwere and igbo or ibibio or efik or ijaw. Just focus on your ikwere. |
The propaganda machine handling this diezani case has PHD in lies and it's related cases. |
989900:celebration may not be written but the undertone is what i am talking about. You could notice some people coming already to talk as if it is worth celebrating... => That aside i want to see a budget with minimal flaws especially in the aspect of padding. Infrastructure, Education, security and Agriculture should be given preferencal treatment. |
