hammerVJ:
ENVY WILL NOT GET U ANYWHERE

U ARE SIMPLY JEALOUS THAT IGBOS ARE WELL TRAVELED IN AND OUT OF NIGERIA.

SECONDLY, DISCRIMINATION IS A CRIME AND ONE THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY TAKES VERY SERIOUSLY.

FURTHER, IT IS BETTER THESE BOYZ GO AND LOOK FOR THEIR DAILY BREAD.

IF THEY ALL LIVE IN NIGERIA, SOONER OR LATER U WILL HAVE TO COME OUT AND FIGHT A SECOND CIVIL WAR TO RETAIN UR PRECIOUS UNITED ONE NIGERIA.

THE IGBOS ARE NOT KEEN ON ONE NIGERIA.


WE KNOW THE INTERNATIONAL PROTEST IS HURTING BUHARI AND HIM AND ABIKE DABIRI HAVE BEEN TRYING TO PUSH A TRIBAL AGENDA BUT ALL THAT IS RUBBISH AND A WASH.


IT CANNOT WORK, PLAIN AND SIMPLE.

I am a girl of 26 years from Delta state. I have a guy I have been dating for close to 3years now and he is from mbaise. My guy told me that he is coming for introduction and I told my parents about it and they said over their dead body will they allow me marry from mbaise. Please,is anything wrong with Mbaise? Are there ladies here that are married to mbaise men and living happily. Please, I am really sad now. I need advice and answers

Am from Enugu...my uncle married an mbaise woman and i dated an mbaise girl...they are very mature people....mostly catholic

Do u know why they are hated, because they are all about their nuclear family...wife/husband and kids...no time to start worrying about parents when their family never settle.

Are u igbo? It could be that ur parents are biased about igbos in general....but sis, there is absolutely nothing i have seen wrong with mbaise as a people that other people dont have

taiwoawoniyi:
Sanwo-Olu dresses very sharp and he carries himself with sophistication added to an intellectual air.
He should quickly find a way to improve Lagos's economy, infrastructure and transportation systems.

With proper leadership and management, Lagos is well on her way to being the possibly the most vibrant state in Africa in terms of trade, economy, culture, infrastructure and yeah...even tourism.

Kudos.

Eko o ni baje.

good good...if yorubas can push for independence out of nigeria (shithole zoo), lagos can be their capital city and all theirs to keep

I support oduduwa republic

Officialgarri:
FFK is just a loser who has lost relevance since after Obasanjo's regime.
No government has recognized him despite all sorts of asslicking.

His only wish is to see the country burn —a masochist I must say— but he will die instead.
If Buhari had not pitied him, he'd rotting in jail for all the funds he looted. Idiot

why do u want nigeria to remain one even tho everybody is complaining and even tho major ethnic groups are always at odds with each other

richie240:
The effect of d clowns emergence has transcend voting or not voting in an election.
Like I said earlier, what u seek can be gotten from one of ur ilks who is devoid of emotional imbalance.
bye.

i always knew u dont have any reasonable talk. Bye too...just make sure u pay ur igbo landlord ur rent....dumass

richie240:
From hindsight, u don't have d heart to hear nor bear d truth, so, I won't bother myself.
Ask one of ur ilks who is level headed and emotionally balanced (like d chap i quoted above} what detriments d emergence of NK has caused the igbos

since most igbos are emotional and not level headed...u can teach us wat damage kanu has done apart from the fact u wont vote an igbo as president

richie240:
ur types (of Igbo's) are very few.
If only d igbos as a whole know d damage the support 4 ds semi-lunatic has done to them in ds country.
All I can say is "Eeyah".

by done to us u mean not being voted as president? B4 the lunatic came out, which igbo was voted as president?
Tell us ur region let us knw wat the presidents u guys produced did for u...

Common sense may be wat u lack

True. But make plans that do not rely on other people else you may become frustrated.

u will not understand why we are planting the seed of independence in yorubas...we are making our plans right

GloShare:
Face your front and stop dragging people into your issue.

am actually facing my front. If yorubas agitate for their own country then biafra can come faster

SamOyovwi:
Corruption is the main issue in Nigeria.What did the Eastern governor's do with the money alotted to them. Corruption is the main problem

ask urself why there is not as much corruption in our neighbouring countries.

Nigerian factor is the reason for corruption..not the other way round

Thegamingorca:
Come on keep quiet.

Nnamdi kanu has failed once before. All he keeps looking for is being persecuted by the Nigerian government thats the only way he can trend

when did he fail? He has infact triumphed in all he has done so far

chemicool:
See how foolish you are. Your skull is definitely filled with sewage. You can only compare Abidjan with Lagos, ewure.

no. Ivory coast dont have oil and the south west economy without lagos is larger than ivory coast

And importantly lagos was not primarily built by yorubas but all nigerians

candidtalk:
......... And what exactly will that achieve? How many times will you followers of Kanu/IPOB/biafra be told the FG is right legally in the eyes of international organisations like the UN, ICC et al? What can Kanu achieve with all this senseless junketing when the fundamental premises of his agitation cannot be decided outside Nigeria? In case you dreamers do not know, IPOB is proscribed in Nigeria and branded a terrorist group by a Nigerian high Court, which is a competent court of law, and not Buhari. Same as no one call tell America who to label terrorists within its border is how no one can dictate to Nigeria who is branded a terrorist within Nigeria.

IPOB can therefore remain abroad making noise but they can do nothing in Nigerian and their agitation cannot be forced on Nigeria by any individual, any organisation or any nation. Even if Buhari leaves, the high court ruling proscribing IPOB remains valid. You guys should grow up and start dealing with facts, like the rest of us do, instead of indulging in flights of fantasy. The move for Biafra must begin at home and with your Senators , if they indeed have the balls to openly fight for it , and not at any UN or ECOWAS gathering.

lol...in the end u will know that nigeria is still one country because no foreign power has made dividing nigeria their pet project

The yorubas should listen.

Breaking out from nigeria is the only long term interest u should have. A 2023 president is good...but pls tell me wat ur 1999-2007 presidency brought for ur yoruba nation. Bragging rights?
Ok tell me wat ur 1993 stinct in aso rock brought u. Another bragging right?
Ok tell me wat ur 1976-1979 term brought u. Yet another bragging rights?

Ok compare life in ivory coast and ghana with life in yoruba land. Do u see wat a small, well managed nation can bring? Organisation, unity of purpose and less chaos.

U think nigeria is bad now? Wait till oil finishes and climate change becomes more serious. Then u will wish u will go back to wen nigeria was the way it is today.


Keep marching forward IPOB. wat u are doing may seem like drama until it stops being drama and bcom real. A journey of a thousand miles......

oyatz:
You are changing the narrative sir.

how? Am telling u still that wat obj did in the cement industry can be done to auto industry and it will gv the same result. I am showing u how and why our auto industry can work if it works in south korea and south africa that has neither our population nor the crude resources to make cars.

If dangote start making cars today, u will see that nigeria can make cars.

They did it for him in cement....they did it for him in sugar....they are about to do it for him in oil....bruh if u are sincere u will see that am telling u the gospel truth

oyatz:
Obviously you dont know much about Basic Chemistry, let alone Industrial Chemistry.

Let me explain some terminologies to you.

1) Aluminium (Al) is a type of metal, specifically, it's apost transition metal with an Atomic number of 13 on period-3 in the Periodic Table of Elements.

2) An alloy is a mixture of two or more metals and the commonest example of an alloy is Steel. Brass and Bronze are other examples of Alloys.

3) Steel is an alloy of Iron, Carbon and one or more other metals.
When the other metals are chromium and Tin, you can have Stainless Steel and when the other metal is mainly zinc, the product becomes galvanized steel.

4) Carbon Steel is a type of Steel in which the Carbon content is around 2%. In most conventional steel, the carbon content is usually between 0=5-1=5%.
With increasing Carbon content, the steel will become less ductile.


Metals make up about two-thirds of the weight of vehicles.
You can't talk of automobile manufacturing without talking of Metal industries.

i am telling u that we have aluminium and steel enough to make cars...why u argue this is beyond me.

Consider these stats.

1. South korea doesnt have iron ore or metal
2. South Africa has iron ore

But

1. South korea makes 4 million cars annually
2. South Africa makes 600k cars annually

However
1. Nigeria makes 16k metric tons of cement yearly
2. South africa makes 11k

But in 1996
1. Nigeria made just 3k metric tonnes of cement
2. South Africa made 7k

Why do u think that we now surpass SA in cement?
We have the comparative advantage to surpass them in cars too...but a fulani man wont do that if it would benefit an igbo man first

otuekong1:
IPoB can have office anywhere,what they are asking for is their right,but my anger with them is that they lie too much and their gullible followers believes anything
I challenge yhu to make available the video of Nnamdi KANU participating in UNGA

he doesnt need to be there as respresentative of a nation...no. he can be there as the representative of a pressure group and meet some diplomats in the side lines

otuekong1:
So yhu believe Nnamdi KANU is participating in UNGA?
nawao the kind juju Nnamdi KANU dey use on his kinsmen odikwa vely powerful

and the juju has started working on yoruba media too. How else do u explain the new frequency of reporting biafra news by the nation news.

U guys think its a play thing...but nobody can be sure of tomorrow. Taliban has an office in qatar. Soon ipob could have a major office in a powerful nation from were an armed struggle can be funded in the right time

oyatz:
You are free to believe what suit your fancy (including comparing building of houses with buying cars in a country like Nigeria!)




However, when I read your first statement that
'Aluminum and not metals is used to build cars' I knew I had to stop this discussion with you because it shows your knowledge of the subject matter is quite shallow.

no. U are the one who knows little or nothing about wat u are talking about



Typically the material used to construct vehicle chassis and frames is carbon steel; or aluminum alloys to achieve a more light-weight construction. In the case of a separate chassis, the frame is made up of structural elements called the rails or beams.

oyatz:
Theoretically ,the same policy will give the same result but in reality,it won't.

Try to find out the factors needed to manufacture vehicles and cement, then find out the ones readily available here.

The steel and metal industries as well as electricity will determine how well we can compete in the auto industry.

In economic terms, Nigeria of 2019 don't have the comperative and competitive advantages in automobile industry,it is not about the Government or the people of Nigeria hating Innoson or the Igbos.
More than 98% of the Igbo car owners don't buy Innoson cars but Toyota, Honda, Nissan etc.
Why do you think Igbo car importers don't just go to Innoson to buy cars instead of going to import Tokunbo cars in far away US, Europe or Asia?
Do they also hate Innoson?

Even if banks give car loans of #3million, it won't still help the industry (subsidizing consumption instead of subsidizing the production).

Apart from these, the economic factors differ alot.
The unit cost of the auto products is very different from the cement industry.
Even, a 25 year old NYSC member can buy 2 bags of cement (#2400*2= #4800) to renovate his Corper's lodge but not so with cars.

1st of all, aluminium not metal is used to make cars.

2ndly nigeria has the comparative advantage for auto industry simply because of our market. South Africa dont have the market nor alumium but they are the giants of auto in africa. Most toyota cars in nigeria were made in SA.

Dont blame igbo importers...they are products of the nigerian system too.

Car loans given by banks to purchase the final product is not a form of subsidy at all...who ever told u that loans are subsidies? The loans will have the dual purpose of making banks more profitable and making auto makers bigger. Both industry grows.

The only people that lose at the end of the day would be u.s and germany were majority of used cars come from.

New cars would still be imported and poor can still buy made in nigeria used cars.

It was in 1984 that nigerians started buying used cars abroad anyhow....the trend can still be reversed but someone is afraid that innosson will be the biggest beneficiary. If dangote starts making cars now, u will see that everything i wrote here can be implemented.

Ps there are more new houses built in nigeria in the last 10yrs than new cars bought by nigerians. Most nigerians will put up 25 million to build a house and then buy a 3 million used toyota car...why?

GidiWoodsMan:
You be mumu

'igbo' means 'bush' or 'weed' in Yoruba

so? Does it mean u guys didnt originate from east...infact it comfirms it because igboland was a dense rain forest b4 modernization....so ...

Iamgrey5:
No, we didn't originate from Ethopia. We don't have a similar language pattern

And all Humans didn't necessarily orgin from the east.

In Africa, we have chadic language and those are people believed to have migrated from lavent in today's middle east. The Hausas and a good numbers of tribe in Northern Nigeria fall into this group.

We have the Bantus who do not share any language trait or DNA with the those Africans the migrated from the east. They are believed to be indigenous to central Africa.

We have the Nilotics who are believed to have migrated from the Nile region and believed to be the original inhabitants of Eygpt, Ethiopia etc, but the languages of the igbos, Yoruba and Edo is not similar to the Nilotics language.

We are grouped among the Niger Congo language speakers. And the orgin of Niger Congo language speakers is west Africa. Hence, it is very likely we didn't migrate from anywhere.

guy...u are not saying the truth here....but let me leave it since i dont knw much about the topic

However i know that yoruba and igbo have one ancestors...which civilization came first i dont knw...but it would most likely be igbos since we were more ancient and rural than u guys who has reached the coast when the whitemen 1st came.

Iamgrey5:
So What about the Bantus Aka Mutu or Hutu who originated along the Congo river

Which part of Ethiopia did they migrate from?

FYI a good numbers of the tribes in North Eastern Nigeria are of the Bantu stock most especially the Tivs

were is congo river....i think u are stock on the ethiopia thingy...my bad...humans originated from east africa of which ethiopia is among.

Recent migrations must have led to the formation of the igbo, edoid and yoruba tribes in that order
