MasterJayJay:
There is no doubt that Tinubu is a disaster. But which party will Goodluck Jonathan use?

GEJ is good. Much better than the gbajue man called Peter Obi.

Shawarmagirl:
Flesh and blood did not revealed this to you. Yesterday, my colleague and I took it upon ourselves to research and finds out about these bots. Lol and behold, this particular account you quoted was being handled and control by Reno Omokiri, reason while he always mention Peter Obi name in all his posting.

I sent mail to Seun regards to this and nothing has been done. In coming weeks, bots will full Nairaland land let's see who gets tired.

"bots will full Nairaland land let's see who gets tired".

Ps: typing in ALL bold does not make you smarter. It's violation of Nairaland rule 11.

11. Don't create distracting posts with: ALL WORDS BOLD / huge font sizes / ALL CAPS / distracting imagesspaces, etc.

DCmonster:
I hope all the "we are not Igbos in South-South are reading". When things get hot you will have only your brother's whom you've long denied to deliver you.
Tinubu is planning something with this hoorni.
But Peter obi will form an alliance that will crush Tinubu.

Obi is a weakling. Go warm Eba chop.

Ironsi and the Ibo coupists continued where Azikiwe stopped.

Slytiger:
There was a reason court martial did not happen.

This event was later tagged an "ibo coup" by other ethnic groups in the country based on some chains of coincidences :

i. The Killing patterns – only one of the 22 casualties is of Ibo origin, while notable Ibo politicians like the Premier of Eastern region and military personnel like Ironsi were unharmed.

ii. The handing over of the government to Ironsi by Orizu (the acting president and the senate president who could have called for the formation of another civilian government) made it look like it was planned out all along.

iii. The unification decree of May 1966 promulgated by Ironsi, leading to the abolition of regional system of government. Historically speaking, the West and North have always believed in the regional system of government as the best form of government for a multiethnic like Nigeria, however this was taken away by Ironsi, leading to a massive outrage and pogrom in the North.

iv. The coup plotters, though kept in jail but were not sentenced.

What’s Aguiyi-Ironsi’s place in history?
The composition of the administration’s advisory team was also another source of discontent. Chief among them was Francis Nwokedi, an Igbo man and former permanent secretary in the Ministry of External Affairs, who had become close to him during his days in the Congo. Others were Pius Okigbo (economic adviser) and Lt. Col Patrick Anwunah who was later Chairman of the National Orientation Committee. The most common complaint against the appointments was that, although highly qualified and distinguished, they were either all Igbos or Igbo speaking.

On February 12, Ironsi took his most sensitive decision when he put Nwokedi in-charge of the establishment he set to work out the details of his unified Nigeria. He had also replaced the Attorney-General, Dr. Teslim Elias, with Gabriel Onyiuke, also of Igbo extraction. Similarly, Dr. Pius Okigbo became the Economic Adviser. Then, contrary to Katsina’s advice, he attempted to appoint Prof. J. C. Edozien from the University of Ibadan as the Vice Chancellor of the Ahmadu Bello University, instead of Prof. Ishaya Audu. When he effected promotions in the Army, of the 21 officers promoted from Majors to Lieutenant-Colonels, 18 were Igbo-speaking.

26 Ibo officers and 4 "Yorubas, but" and 1 Urhobo.

More of Azikiwe's tribalism. Written by members of Azikiwe's party about how he used nepotism and tribalism to fill Goverment jobs with Ibos over other Nigerian tribes.

[quote author=Ibrahimcoomasie post=122084961]CONT'D

...Such was the mocking tone with which ZIK described an innocent football match with a slant of superiority complex.

But the same CKC team met the Olubadan XI, an undiluted Yoruba team in another 'Win the War' match on 24 August 1940 and were roundly defeated 3-2.

It may just be a matter of coincidence that ZIK wasn't in the mood to write at the time or perhaps he suffered what we call 'Writer's Block', because for more than 2 weeks, this headline event never got reported on the Pilot. And when the paper finally wrote on it, it was only a small item on the back page, like a mistress smuggled out of the window at the arrival of the madam of the house..and was laced with excuses,

"the CKC team was already tired; some of the players were in fact limping before the match",

and other calculated efforts to avoid giving the yoruba boys their well deserved accolade, and extreme energy was exerted in ensuring the brilliance and talent of those little yoruba boys was never acknowledged.

This was but tip of the Iceberg, ZIK would go full scale Bigotry afterwards.

Shall I Begin?

The Ibos were given inordinate publicity on the pages of the paper, which I regard as appropriate and in order, to promote one's root..but at a time when other Nationalists made concerted efforts in describing citizens of Nigeria as Nigerians or Africans and celebrated their laurels and feats as credits to Nigeria and Africa as a whole, ZIK would jettison the whole for the particular and elevate Ibo over and above every other tribe and largely over Nigeria as an entity, and in a manner that smirked Ego inspired Hate.

Typical Front Page news title in the Pilot this time were;

1. 'Ibo Young man Sail to U.K.' Sept 23, 1938. Referring to Mr. Jaja Wachukwu, who later became Speaker of Houe of Rep.

2. '14th West African Student, 10th Nigerian, 8th Ibo in U.S.A.' Jan 28, 1939. The 8th Ibo was Mr. Nwafor Orizu, later became Senator.

3. 'Ibo Medical Student Passes Exam in 1st Class Honours.' June 26, 1940. That was Dr. S.O. Eguwatu.

And some weird editorials like:

'The Ibo Are Coming' Dec 31, 1938, Wondered what ZIK meant, but the title is indicative enough of some theory of domination.

These are but very few examples of deliberate actions of ZIK in portraying the perceived supremacy of the Ibos over others, for the Pilot never beamed the light on the achievements of Nigerians of other ethnic stock...

For example, when the Ph.D. degree of London University, indeed any university for that matter, was conferred on the first Nigerian ever, such historic success was only given a small space in the paper and the title read: 'Nigerian Economist passes Ph.D. London', because that scholar was Dr. Fadipe, a Yoruba.

Azikiwe started tribalism.amd nepotism.

[quote author=Ibrahimcoomasie post=122084957]Early politicians of the 30s, 40s, Chiefs among them are mostly talented in writing and journalism and some owned media outfits, with which they laud and inflate their egos while simultaneously deflating d profile of those they disagree with in the political firmament.

Herbert Macaulay (A Yoruba man), the Father of Nigerian Nationalism, also a journalist was fond of calling dissenting voices 'imperialism agents' but ZIK took it to an elevated proportion, re-christened it to 'imperial stooges', 'Uncle Toms' and 'aunty Jememas', even those whose patriotism and Nationalism had never been in doubt were so named; minor disagreements and you are blacklisted. ZIK had a Newspaper outlet, 'the Pilot', a tool he creatively used to maximum advantage. The editors would daily eulogize him for d basics, and sometimes for the hitherto unknown and unheard of good things for Nigeria, nay, 'Mother Africa', Some of them acclaimed him as d 'Ghandi of Africa' and others declared that ZIK deeds had 'eleczik-ified' them.

ZIK was obviously very gifted, intelligent and clever which manifested in his works; however, he was regarded by many of his peers as the 1st consummate propagandist that Nigeria ever produced. In inflating his own ego or deflating that of his rivals, publications on the Pilot observed neither modesty nor reck. In this connection, he was in direct line of succession to Herbet Macaulay, but like all sons who are worthy of their parentage, in this respect, ZIK outdid Herbert Macaulay, for he took propaganda several notches higher with a slant of deep seated tribalism.

[b]For example, when the ban on Palm Kernel was imposed, the Pilot supported it and reported thus: "the measure by the Government is fair. Instead of reducing the whole country to poverty, only the Western provinces will be affected and they can switch over to other avenues, to make body and soul live." He held similar stance as to the agitation against the 'Cocoa Pool'.

ZIK brazenly supported a policy which clearly threatened the livelihood of the Yorubas. Were the East on the receiving end here, ZIK would have dipped pen in gall, and crafted a creatively worded opinion on the Pilot, denouncing the Cocoa Pool as an 'imperialist device or stratagem whose aim, object and purpose was to oppress, repress, depress and distress Nigerian Cocoa producers and dealers economically' and he would have replicated same for d ban on palm kernels in d West. He would have labeled it 'a gross betrayal of trust, an indelible stain, blemish and stigma on British imperialism; a vain attempt, a complete misfire and a palpable boner in the realm of divide et impera.'[/b] Pardon my poor attempt at replicating ZIK's creative writing genius, he many a time used such strong words.

ZIK took this tribalist venom to higher Plateau when he graced the front page of the Pilot, and entitled it 'Football Iliad, 1940 Edition' what many described as a shocker, a big step forward in an insidious campaign colored in Bigotry. A football match between 2 schools, Christ the King's college, Onitsha was hosted by St. Gregory's college in Lagos, in a match tagged 'Win the War'.

The CKC team from Onitsha defeated St Gregory's team by 5 goals to 4. Spectators had a good watch, even the host considered the match very entertaining, a bonding moment for teams made up of teenagers of different cultures, that afterall is the spirit of sport.

But how did ZIK report it? ZIK saw in the sporting exploits and triumph of the team from Onitsha the inherent superiority of the Ibos over the Yorubas and he went to very great pains to establish this in d careful choice of words and emphasis..

"And then to think of the great combination of d Spartan heroes who crossed her loudly Niger, journeyed through the good earth of Benin, hurried across the domains of the Oshemawe of Ondo, of the Atanla of Owo, of the Owa of Ilesha, of the Ooni of Ife, of the Alake of Abeokuta in their invasion of these islands!

Who, but heroes of mighty brawn and exceptionally developed brain would have dared to make this invasion and to succeed in carrying to their River Niger home, the Golden fleece of Inter-Collegiate Soccer Championship of d Eastern and Western Provinces?"

Topsido:
Unlike some people whose Delta and Rivers State cousins contonue to disown in the most embarrassing way, our siblings in Kwara and Kogo won't spare any chance to tell the world they are part of us. They are part of the glory and don't want anybody to be in doubt. Fingers truly are not equal.

100%. Alot of Rivers community won't even marry them or sell lands to them. But in this Nigeria, everybody wants to be Yoruba. Even Chidinma of South Africa had to yorubanized her last name 😂

chidinma commot white lady now wins
Let me guess her father is Portuguese her mother is south african or both are from yankee.

She is likely a boer. They have been in South Africa since the 1600s.

So it has now all of a sudden shifted to seven days when indeed some said 15 days, others said 10 days. Anyway, Nigeria will succeed under Tinubu and haters will be disgraced.

They also boasted that they will continue till lawmakers return from recess.

Bitter obi will not be happy that army didn't take over

Yeah. They were saying Tinubu will run away.

To think some dummies were saying Tinubu will flee Nigeria 🤣

Oyo is your name.

shivisee:
God so 1 or two yorubas Dey??

Yes. But there are like 26 Ibo officers for like 4 Yorubas. Those 4 are the people we call "Yoruba, buts" nowadays. The ones that are easily gaslighted.

Out of 22 people murdered in that coup, only 1 was Ibo. Azikiwe and the Minister of eastern region (Okpara) were likely tipped off.

Northern power. The north wants power and wealth to stay in the North.

They are all crooks and rogues. Everyone if them.

Salewa97:
If they had separated, the Igbos would have been busy fighting among themselves instead of uniting. They always find a way to turn any situation into chaos. The Yoruba people are more organized and would have easily outmaneuvered them. It's just in their nature.

Let's not turn this to a tribal thread. The OP has no intention of that. I am sure you have also heard of the kiriji war.

There would be fight within clans but they would eventually unite since they speak one language and have same culture.

kettykin:
There are so many countries that split without recourse to the constitution, hindustan, sudan, Korea , Ethiopia

India is another British experiment that should be split into several countries. An average Kerala man from South India has nothing in common with a Punjab man from North India or a Gujarat man from North India.

kettykin:
So what exactly is prevent them now even after so many year

The constitution in which all the tribes are represented by some morons in Abuja and they are only united in looting.

They would have agreed to break up within 2 years without a single shot fired.
