Putinofrussia:You're clearly rattled. You say we talk too much? No, we speak truth and what really burns you is that we’re not afraid to say the things the way they are Let’s cut the crap. Your problem isn’t loquaciousness. Your problem is that Igbos don’t kneel to your tribal entitlement complex. You hate that we won’t vote for your preferred candidates in every election circle. You hate that we thrive without your approval. And you hate that despite all your efforts to shame or silence us, we’re still here, still bold, still building and still not begging. You say “live calmly with your hosts" Don't make me laugh. Who exactly do you think you are? You don’t own Yorubaland any more than an Edo man owns Benin or a Hausa man owns Kano. This is Nigeria, a republic and not a feudal kingdom where people need your permission to exist. Igbos are legal residents in any part of Nigeria! We’re not your tenants, we’re your equals....it is boldly written in the constitution of Nigeria. So deal with it. The Igbo man will never be you or behave like you or any other ethnic group! and thank God for that. He’ll never bow to silence to massage your premitive ego. He’ll speak, vote, build and shine whether it annoys you or not. We’re not here to blend in. We’re here to stand out! The last person you'll want to bully into submission is the Igbo man. He'll rather die..this is why we are born free..we have no kings and bow to no man. This is exactly what makes us who we are and we will unapologetically remain so |
The Governor doesn't own Edo state or any part of Nigeria. Peter Obi is a Nigerian citizen and he can go to any part of the country as a Nigerian |
Putinofrussia:You clearly know nothing about the North. Igbos are not only present there, they’re thriving and deeply rooted. Let me school you a bit. There’s a whole town in Kano called Sabon Gari and I’m not exaggerating when I say 95% of the properties there are owned by Igbos. Step into that place and you’d think you just entered Aba or Onitsha. That’s how dominant and established the Igbo presence is in the North. And it’s not just Kano. Go to Kaduna in Sabon Tasha, Jos’ Ahmadu Bello Way or parts of Bauchi and Minna you’ll find entire business districts owne and driven by Igbo enterprise. Even in Sokoto, Maiduguri and Yola, you’ll find Igbo businesses, spare part markets, hotels, electronics shops flourishing. So this lame narrative about Igbos not being able to "do this in the North" is nonsense. They’ve done it, they’re doing it and they’ll keep doing it. Nigeria belongs to all Nigerians irrespective of state of origin And by the way, saying SW people are the “most accommodating” while threatening others in the same breath. It is peak double standard. If you claim to be accommodating then act like it don’t spew tribal insecurity because others are succeeding around you. |
Putinofrussia:Exactly! And that’s why it’s laughable when some people start foaming at the mouth about “non-indigenes” living in Lagos or elsewhere. Here you are bragging about being in the coldest regions of the world and even in space..places where nobody knows or cares about your tribal identity and you’re accommodated. If you’ve got the liver to survive in space, surely you should have the liver to tolerate fellow Nigerians on earth..especially in a country you don't even own alone. Stop acting like landlords of a nation built by everyone. |
SuperEagles:Cry me a river ![]() |
DiscoverID:Lame ![]() If you have a brain you'll know there’s nothing wrong with Igbos living or doing business across Nigeria.Mobility is a sign of enterprise, not failure! Europeans, Arabs, and Chinese are found all over the world does that mean their homelands are uninhabitable? Of course not. It's called global presence and economic expansion. |
helinues:I don't know any state in Nigeria where the governor share free money to the indigenes of the state. Every state government directs its funds to developmental programs that will benefit every Nigerian resident in that state, irrespective of their state of origin. |
helinues:There is no law in Nigeria that restricts any ethnic group even if it's 100% of a region’s population from relocating to another part of the country. The Igbo people are known for their entrepreneurial spirit and adventurous nature you'll find them in virtually every nation on earth, let alone within Nigeria. As long as Nigeria remains a single, united entity.... peaceful coexistence is the only option |
helinues:All the resources in every part of Nigeria belongs to all Nigerians. That's the law, that's the constitution of the land. I wonder when you will stop crying and compete like others |
The US Government must be Igbo people, they hate Tinubu and Yoruba people. |
Mabuggi88:The way you guys spread misinformation with confidence is mind boggling. It has not been proven that Okoye was involved in football betting...it's still a mere allegation and no formal charges has been filed against him. professional players are strictly prohibited from betting on events in which they are involved.. |
....and Akpi was just minding his business Not enough original content |
This simply shows how ignorant Wike is. I feel ashamed to have charlatans as leaders |
Buccalcavity2:Being applauded by Bretton Woods institutions, Wall Street pundits or Western powers isn't a badge of honor when the local economy is bleeding and citizens are dying of starvation. These are the same institutions that have praised every failed African reform since the 1980s.! If your current diplomacy is so impactful, show us one deal signed in the last year that has improved the lives of ordinary Nigerians. Deals don’t negotiate themselves. Global influence isn’t built on press statements or foreign praise, it’s built on strategic presence, boots on the ground. And that’s exactly why ambassadors matter. |
Buccalcavity2:We’ve become invisible in global diplomacy while other nations strengthen ties, sign deals, and push their agenda. That silence isn’t saving us money ,it’s costing us relevance. instead of asking if we need ambassadors, maybe ask why a government that can fund to renovate buildings with billions, fund luxury convoys, bloated aides and endless political appointments suddenly “can’t afford” critical foreign representation. |
badoh:You think it’s okay for a whole country to have no ambassadors anywhere in the world for nearly two years? That's strategic stupidity. If you can't tell the difference between wasteful appointments and critical diplomatic roles then maybe it's best you sit this one out. Nigeria isn’t broke because we have ambassadors, we’re broke because we keep defending incompetence at the expense of patriotism. So if you're okay with Nigeria being voiceless globally, that’s your Wahala |
Since 2023, Tinubu fired every Nigerian ambassador without a plan, without replacements and without a clue. Today, Nigeria has no ambassadors anywhere in the world not even at the United Nations. None. Zero. Zilch! What kind of country deliberately silences its own voice on the global stage? What kind of leader watches it happen and does nothing? Investors are watching. Foreign governments are confused. Nigerians abroad are suffering. Meanwhile, Tinubu and his gang are too busy playing politics and sharing appointments like party favors. Diplomatic missions are not decoration pieces. They are vital organs of a nation’s survival in a global economy and Tinubu has yanked the cord and left the country bleeding. This has never happened before in Nigeria. No country not even war-torn ones has ever gone this long completely voiceless in international diplomacy. It’s not just an international embarrassment. It’s a loud blinking sign that this administration is not fit to govern a WhatsApp group, let alone a country. The mass recall of all ambassadors in 2023 without timely replacement is not just irresponsible,it’s reckless. https://x.com/ruffydfire/status/1947523173412733257?t=gOVdb2bdswDJ4HHEGWg4Kw&s=19

They are not evil. Any creature that exhibits any form of intelligence is always given a bad name, misunderstood, feared and hated. This includes humans too. |
Satazaa:Same Paulo of Paul B construction? Thought the man is now late |
wellmax:This is not true! No university in Nigeria comes close to NOUN in terms of the number of graduates. NOUN is the largest university in West Africa by enrollment and the second largest in all of Africa, surpassed only by UNISA. On average, NOUN matriculates over 600,000 students per academic year, while other universities average around 35,000. |
You can't compare NOUN to other universities in Nigeria; it's in a class of its own. Changing its name would unsettle any president, given the overwhelming number of graduates who would rise in protest. |
appleous:The fact that you don't know him means there's actually alot you don't know. With such limited knowledge don't you think you are in no position to mock someone? |
Sannisege:Pain is that you ![]() Peter Obi's Birthday was celebrated across Nigeria |
sreamsense:You didn't see birthday messages from Northern political leaders..Atiku, malami,Tambuwal, El rufai e.t.c What does that tell you? Are you aware that giant billboards were erected in diffrent parts of Ondo State south west Nigeria to celebrate Peter Obi's Birthday today. Are you also aware that people from Lagos gathered in Ikeja, Lagos state south west Nigeria to celebrate Peter Obi's Birthday?

franchasng:They were all in coma ![]() Peter Obi is loved across Nigeria, many believe the country will not be this messed up and if he is the president. |
Abuja used to be one of the safest places in the country but since he relocated from Lagos with his boys, residents can no longer sleep with their eyes closed...night life is practically dead in the nation's capital due to insecurity and hardship. Wuse ll is not in the outskirts but deep in the center of the city, if people can get shot in wuse ll. ..... |
Zionmdde:Spot on! Many still underestimate the deep psychological awakening Peter Obi has brought to Nigerians. Where it was once assumed that support and votes could only be secured through money and god fatherism, he has shown that integrity and ideas can earn trust. Nigerians are now questioning old systems and stepping away from the ethnic and religious politics that have long divided us Indeed, a new Nigeria is POssible. |
zero8zero:You didn't watch the video |
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyyFVBRamkA?si=HCz1aOqirfsE8cDW A viral video shows a massive crowd storming the streets of Warri, Delta State, in carnival-like celebration of His Excellency Mr. Peter Obi’s birthday. Voices in the background can be heard cheering, wishing him a happy birthday and referring to him as "Mr. President," as the streets erupted in jubilation. According to reports, similar scenes of celebration were witnessed in various cities across Nigeria. |
The Federal Government must stop behaving like a lawless rascal and release Nnamdi Kanu. Many courts have discharged and acquitted him
|
We all the know the people responsible for spreading lies about Igbo people. Yet the more they try the more all their efforts end in disgrace and regrets. ![]() |
