who ever conquar war is the God or lord, so my father once conquar father, so you are a slave to yoruba

Oh, unlike you I have better things to do. I have social activities to attend to. I am not confined to a shack somewhere on the side of a dirty road selling singlets and Aba-made shoes. So get worried about your MOTHER's stinking cvnt which is making her lose customers; and where you will get food to eat today. M0r0n.

logica:
You this son of a gibbon and Australopithecus misadventure. You sure like being beaten up. No surprises; no wonder the back of your father's head is flat. Don't worry, soon yours will be concave.

logica:
What the fvck are you trying to express? You better type it in Igbo. You are not communicating. Were you shot in the head?

logica:
Apparently, Aba stinks like your mother's puss oozing, maggot, infested kitten. And since you regularly stick your head up that stink-pit, you would feel so much at home in Aba.

And if you were not just a m0r0n, you would have known that those areas you called dirty in Lagos are some of the areas most populated by Igbos. What does that tell you?

disumusa:
we are to free them after 200 years to come,that is, if they repent and show remose.

logica:
LMAO. Your uncle doesn't like dirt, yet if we check he's probably from Aba; crowned the dirtiest city in Nigeria. So your uncle can't speak a word of Yoruba? Who begged him to speak Yoruba? Na him wahala na. Just don't blame the Efik man who learned to speak Yoruba and learned the culture of his hosts; and is therefore loved in the community while your uncle can only restrict himself to Ladipo and Alaba market.

Sweetlemon:
Even that Asari has kept quiet now. How many Niger Delta groups are actively opposing Buhari's govt now except the usual militants doing their usual stuff (no matter who's in power)? Most SS PDP fans on social media are just doing siddon look now. It's only Igbos are still still ranting and ranting and screaming and gyrating all over the damn place.

Ephemmm:
But Ashari that promised to turn SW and North to ashes is a saint? This is one of the problems with you guys: you will never see anything wrong in any person especially from your own enclave.

ArodewilliamsT:
So your "wife" accepted you because she was warned against marrying Igbo. So you were an alternative?. Can you see how worthless you are. Your "wife" was right, yorubas are alternative and second-hand men compared to Superior Igbomen who everybody pray to marry including your smelly sisters.

Sweetlemon:
Imo Igbos are the best ones. The most liberal and the most accommodating.
Anambra...........chai!

ArodewilliamsT:
You sound so pained at the coming reality of an Oduarewa republic in the very near future. Wetin dey happen? Shouldn't you be jubilitating? Lmao!

disumusa:
ibo are always found in wast ben or prostitude hotel.


90 percent of ibo are found in shops,store,ware house without toilet facilities. Most of the time they excreate and toil inside their stores for days.

Ibos are generaly known to be decendant of apes.

1 they are always hairy, smeling,beating cheast, beating wood,gluton,
ibo also love perfume b/c of how they smeale

disumusa:

Chisco vehicles was set on fire during apc campain by yorubas but ibo refuse to react


ibo was deported from lagos, that is national embarasment,till that ibo refuse to react till date



during civil war, yoruba flug ibo out of ore. So bro yoruba is your master.

disumusa:
bro, are you an historian, ibo hate yorubas and yoruba hate ibo too, which realy started b/4 nigeria independence. So any tribe that is more pain should triger the war, we all ready.

disumusa:
na wa for this ibo gum body with yoruba, this ibo boy face your ibo problem.
You still refuse to understand that yoruba have nothing comon with ibo at all,
staying in south nigerial does not make us one tribe i.e

1) ibo eat human being, while yoruba do not

2) ibo embrase brostitution, as a business i.e just go to any hotel and do the reseach.


3) naturally ibo welcome and embrase stealing,robbry, drug pusher, and other social vices.


4) ibo naturaly did not care about any human life when its come to money, they use their wife,mother,children,or any relatives for money rituals i.e ogu ego.

4) ibo have no culture,norms,values.



5) ibo did not belive in leader, till date they can't point any body as eader, infac ibo have one prover i.e ndigbo ama eze, means ibo have no respect for any body,eze,leader.

6) yorubas have informal and formal education while ibo have only formal education i.e ibo children will be addresing or talking to his father,mother, elder and be pulling ear.


7) 70 percent of yoruba are muslim.

Sowell25:
Today is the beginning of your misery.

If you follow my posts,you would know that I support autonomy for every tribe. I support autonomy for Oron nation,Idoma nation,Igbo nation,Nupe nation,Yoruba nation,Ibibio nation,Ijaw nation,Fulani nation,Gwari nation,Urhobo nation ,Itsekiri nation ,Ejagham nation,TIV nation,Hausa nation,Igala nation,Kanuri nation.etc.
fight for your igbo nation ,but do not include Oron nation in your biafra. I personally have no problem with nor even care about any tribe in that shithole. I only have a problem with ibibio and annang,and once Oron secedes from Akwa ibom,then Ibibio and anang will not be my cup of tea.

Sowell25:
I just don't understand why some Oronians have chosen the path of dishonor to become a bunch of disgrace with lack of pride and dignity.Could it be due to the fact that Oron DNA is been diluted with strange DNA from other inferior tribes? I feel like Thousands of stvpid unpatriotic Oronians have to be exterminated so that true Oronians can live in wealth,good health,pride and dignity. I don't know why some Oronians don't like Oron. Instead of contributing to the betterment of their land ,they run away like coward slaves ,claim to be from calabar and take pride in living in Abuja ,Lagos or promoting other people's stuff at the detriment of theirs. It makes me feel like my vision for Oron is in vain . It's really pathetic really . On another thread ,some Oron impostor "jazzydee" sided with ibibio to attack me instead of speaking out against marginalization of Oron. I know of another Oronian "Ozin" who is an ardent supporter of the pdp party who has marginalized Oron. neither Ozin nor Jazzydee complain nor raise awareness about Oron's plight.
What have the Igbos really done to you to you?Instead of focusing your energy toward Oron getting a new state and on the Ibibios and Annangs who are Oron's enemy and a threat to Oron's Progress and Oron's nationhood,you are exhausting your energy on Meaningless issues.
You have constantly proven your unwarranted inferiority complex In some of your post when you downplay your Oronness and emphasize that your mom is efik and you only understand efik and that Oron language is too "strong" for you .What sort of ignorance is that? I'm American born and raised and My dad is Oronian and my mom is white,yet I understand Oron language and history vividly and i'm very proud to be Oronian even though I can't speak the language. Let me tell you right now,if I ever became the president of the US, I would still care about Oron and would secede Oron nation from Nigerian. Is Oron language "stronger" than Japanese,Singaporean or Swedish? Everything in life is about publicity .If you promote Ijaw or Igbo language ,then it becomes popular .
Oron has a much better history than efik,ibibio and annang. Calabar and efik is only popular due its status as former colonial capital. In fact,the Maritime University ,Museum and Other historical relics such as the Oron Methodist boys High school,Namoba and Mary Hanney are what propelled Oron to a bit of popularity. Oron is superior to all their neighbors in every facet of the word,but unfortunately Nigeria is a corrupt,unjust third world shiithole.Oron's greatness is only being hindered in a corrupt third world shithole like nigeria. Once Oron gets a new state with Ibeno and once Oron begins to rise,Dubai will be child's play and no one will remember the name Uyo,ibibio or Calabar.

Finally,it's a travesty to include the great Oron as being one with Annang and ibibio . Oron nation is a distinct nation with a rich and glorious history,some Oron artifacts and relics can be found generating money at Philadelphia museum and London Museum. the white elephant Ibibio museum at Uyo which was built with Oron's wealth is empty because ibibios have no artifacts .(prove me wrong)
The nations Oron,Efik,Annang and Ibibio are not brothers,but linguistic neighbors ; Similar to [Sweden,Finland,Denmark,Norway], [Burma,Laos,Vietnamese,Camodian] or [Japanese,Singaporean,North/south Korea,Taiwan,Macau,Chinese], etc. their familial history makes them natural allies but not brother. Most African nations especially in West Africa ,settled in smaller landmass due to to the fertile and conciliatory geography. - Oron nation is twice larger than Singapore,Igbo nation nation is same size as portugal,Yoruba nation is larger than England (go look it up - Colonialiasm forcefully merged these West African nations against their wishes),there are numerous small nations,Rome is just 150 acres,Monaco is just 400acres,All the Caribbean nations are small.Quatar is same size as Akwa Ibom. (I'm tired of educating ignorant people)
(Maybe ibibio and annang may agree to be one) but Oron will always be a distinct nation and will probably get back bakassi and even include ibeno in the future.

God bless Oron nation forever!

azzima:
EVEN if there is an igbo president of Nigeria or Biafra,I can guarantee you that their innated whining will surface again when the igbos of Abia will cry marginalisation against igbos of ebonyi or the igbos of delta will cry marginalisation against the igbos of imo.what am I even saying? The igbos of ebonyi are still fighting each because of ethnic hatred WITHIN the state o. Igbos hate each other,their number 1 issue.

YORUBAS ARE THE PROBLEM WITH NIGERIA - By Sanusi Lamido 
In sum, the Yoruba political leadership, as mentioned by Balarabe Musa, has shown itself over the years to be incapable of rising above narrow tribal interests and reciprocating goodwill from other sections of the country by treating other groups with respect. Practically every crisis in Nigeria since independence has its roots in this attitude.

REMI FANI KAYODE, AKINTOLA, AWOLOWO, WESTERN REGION AND THE CRISIS THAT TRUNCATED THE FIRST REPUBLIC

These captains of the “tribalism industry” have good incentives to always omit the causes of the January 1966 coup preferring instead to dwell only on the coup itself. The reason  is simple;  It was  in their own  Western region  then known as the “wild wild west”  that  election rigging, thuggery, violence, arson, mass murders and other  forms of corruption and acts of lawlessness that occasioned the January 1966 coup  took place as pioneering acts in Nigeria.

Soon after Nigeria got independence the Western region was in turmoil. Premier Ladoke Akintola and Chief Obafemi  Awolowo became embroiled in a protracted crisis. By 1962 the crisis led to sustained violence and acts of lawlessness with law makers engaged in vicious physical combats in the Western regional parliament. Amongst serious injuries and other damages, the mace of office was broken.  The federal government intervened to curb the lawlessness and violence by imposing a state of emergency and appointing Dr Moses Majekodunmi as interim premier of the Western region on the 29th of June 1962. This became the first imposition of a state of emergency in Nigeria’s history due to heightened levels of lawlessness. Following an alliance between Akintola and Ahmadu Bello, Ladoke Akintola was returned to power on the 31st of December 1962 in spite of protests by Dr Nnamidi Azikiwe who requested fresh elections rather than reinstating Ladoke Akintola.

By 1963, the plot between Akintola, Tafawa Balewa and Ahmadu Bello was perfected and Chief Obafemi Awolowo was arrested for coup plotting/ treason. His trial commenced in earnest and he was alongside some accomplices convicted for treason and jailed for 10 years. This again was the first alleged coup plotting and conviction in Nigerian history. Intent on totally decimating Chief Awolowo, Ladoke Akintola together with vice premier Remi Fani Kayode went into a political alliance with Prime minister Tafawa Balewa and new political party known as the Nigerian National Alliance (NNA) was formed.  By this time Dr Nnamidi Azikiwe had realised the folly of entering a coalition with Tafawa Balewa’s government   and teamed up with incarcerated Chief Awolowo’s Action group to form the all progressive grand alliance (UPGA).  

In 1964, federal elections became due. As usual ethnic chauvinism, intimidation and violence was part of the frenzied campaigning. Remi Kayode and Akintola’s campaign was as usual almost entirely based on tribalism. When the elections were finally held, it was massively rigged in the Western region. Indeed deputy premier Remi Fani Kayode had famously boasted that “there is nothing they can do, whether they vote us or not, we will win.” This statement turned out to be true as massive rigging was orchestrated in the elections.  Once again this became the first pioneering act of election rigging by indigenous actors in Nigeria’s history. The announcement of the rigged election results quickly sparked off unprecedented acts of thuggery, violence, arson, mass murders and general acts of lawlessness in the Western region.

Daily mass murders and arson became routine in the Western region (wetie). This violence and lawlessness in the Western region was to continue from 1964 until 1966 when the military lost patience and finally struck.

The Western region was thus a region in crisis from the onset of post-colonial rule. By the time of the military coup, Chief Obafemi Awolowo himself was incarcerated for treason and the region was practically on an uncontrollable violence and trajectory of self destruction for almost two years from 1964 to 1966. At the same time that the Western region was aflame the Eastern region was calm and democratic. Unlike the Western region there were no cases of election rigging, thuggery or other such acts of lawlessness in the East. In the North there was sporadic violence in the TIV division which was put down by the military.

Of all the regions, the western region was torn the most by crisis and acts of lawlessness which eventually occasioned the coup. If the leadership of the Western region had played by the rules and avoided the infighting, the election rigging, the thuggery, the  planning of a coup in 1963, the  arson, the mass murders and other  such corrupt acts and vices  many of which were being  introduced for the first time  in Nigeria  and which incidentally continues to haunt the nation to date, there would have been no coup and Nigeria would no doubt have immensely benefited from  a  functional democracy  devoid of election rigging, thuggery and violence as it obtains  in many progressive nations around the world.

The leadership of the Western region in conspiracy with Prime Minister Tafawa Balewa and Ahmadu Bello are singularly responsible for the events and crisis that truncated the first republic and ruined the nation.

Those who carried out the coup choose to act out of genuine anger and frustration at the carnage in the Western region.  Whatever the demerits of the coup, It is obvious the coupists had nothing to gain other than the patriotic urge to end the corruption and lawlessness that had taken hold of the nation particularly the Western region.

Yorubas created the crisis that occasioned the coup and whose region the coup saved from self destruction are  some of the biggest ungrateful noisemakers  who peddle  the propaganda  of  colouring  an anti corruption revolutionary coup with patriotic ideals  very similar to that of  Flt Lt  Jerry Rawlings  in a tribal garb. In Ghana, Jerry Rawlings led a coup that eliminated three former heads of state, top military officers and top members of the judiciary. Not one of those killed was from Jerry Rawlings Ewe tribe, but Ghanaians didn’t spew tribalism into the coup and Ghana is better for it. With too many vultures and opportunists...preying on tribalism in Nigeria the story was bound to be different and thus a coup driven out of patriotism and obvious anger at the state of affairs was reconstructed as an Igbo coup and the worms were let out from the woodwork.


JANUARY 1966 COUP

Adewale Ademoyega, a full blooded Yoruba army officer, was deeply involved in the planning and execution of the January coup. His book ‘Why We Struck’ gives insight into the coup’s antecedents; planning; modus operandi and partial success. Any study of January 15 that ignores Ademoyega’s book is incomplete.

In a September 5 2010 interview with ‘The Nation’ newspaper, Matthew Mbu, then a Junior Defence Minister, narrated how, at an Air Force base in Kaduna on an official assignment on 5 January 1966, he was bluntly told by Brigadier Samuel Ademulegun that the military was going to sack the government. Ademulegun made no bones about their plan to shoot key members of the political class, notably Chief Okotie-Eboh, the Minister for Finance.

... the killing of Lieutenant-Colonel Arthur Unegbe is attributed to his possession and non-surrender of the Lagos armoury keys to the plotters.
As professional soldiers the plotters knew this. Going by the accounts of Ademoyega and Gbulie who wrote ‘Nigeria’s Five Majors,’ what the plotters desperately needed were armoured vehicles to consolidate their gains in Lagos on January 15.

In page 60 of his book, Ademoyega mentioned Unegbe as one of the officers he and his colleagues had marked down for arrest.

Northern officers and men were involved, especially at the execution stage. Max Silloun, the military historian, mentions them in his landmark online article ‘The inside story of Nigeria’s first military coup Parts 1 and 2.’ It can be accessed from most search engines. Prominent among these Northern officers was the then Lieutenant John Atom Kpera who later became the Benue State governor in the Babangida regime. Kpera participated in the coup under Captain Ben Gbulie, Nzeogwu’s right hand-man in Kaduna. (See Ben Gbulie: ‘Nigeria’s Five Majors.’).

Although Adewale Ademoyega is the most prominent Yoruba participant in the coup, there were other Yoruba officers who were involved at the dangerous execution stage of the coup. One of them is Second Lieutenant Olafimihan, an officer serving under Madiebo in Kaduna. He was sent by the plotters to gauge his commander’s loyalty. (See Madiebo pp.17-18). Another is Lieutenant (some books refer to him as a Captain) Fola Oyewole. He, like Ademoyega, went on to fight for Biafra and wrote a book on his coup and wartime experiences. The book’s title is ‘Reluctant Rebel.’ There is also Captain Ganiyu Adeleke who became an instructor in the Biafran Infantry School. For confirmation, see the list of coup plotters detained by Ironsi’s regime in Ademoyega pp.106-108, and this quote from Nowa Omoigui’s online account: ‘Mid-Western Invasion of 1967’: ‘Captain Ganiyu Adeleke, who had taken part in both the January 15 coup and the Mid-Western invasion before becoming an instructor in the Biafran School of Infantry was released at a later date after his co-plotters had been freed.’ Omoigui’s work is significant because, though he exhibits a high level of professionalism in his research, he has no sympathy for the January 15 coup. If his facts corroborate Ademoyega’s they are worthy of attention.

For confirmation, see the list of coup plotters detained by Ironsi’s regime in Ademoyega pp.106-108, and this quote from Nowa Omoigui’s online account: ‘Mid-Western Invasion of 1967’: ‘Captain Ganiyu Adeleke, who had taken part in both the January 15 coup and the Mid-Western invasion before becoming an instructor in the Biafran School of Infantry was released at a later date after his co-plotters had been freed.’ Omoigui’s work is significant because, though he exhibits a high level of professionalism in his research, he has no sympathy for the January 15 coup. If his facts corroborate Ademoyega’s they are worthy of attention.

Listen and listen real good. If Jonathan was an Igbo man do you think the SS would have carried his matter on our heads like the way you guys did for us? Why are you so gullible?
Ok now that GEJ is gone when last did you hear him talk about Igbos?

Besides all that PDP has a very strong base in SS and SE. It was more of a PDP thing than a brotherhood thing. When Ojukwu contested, which SS region even remembered that he was contesting? Stay there and be forming big brother by force and fire ehn. I believe that very soon, you will be forced to wake up to reality. Very very soon.

Trash from an accursed fool. A product of baby factory can never make sense cos you were starved of breast milk while growing up in the jungle. You have comprehension problem but its not your fault cos you took after your late father, cos he was useless all his life before he was stoned to death by the elders in your village for bringing shame to alaigbo. Whats my own with radio Biafra? Its only jobless people that have time to claim yeebhoe to do bashing, I face you animals here daily and even tired cos most of your best men have retired same with many of our men. I only come here to laugh at you deluded fools that make noise daily on nairaland. I thought you gonna claim Ojuiku was not a coward...Buhahahaha. The bearded fool was disgraced and even pardoned by a Aboki you people hate, he still went ahead to contest election in same country he fought again...A slap on the 3m deluded yeebhoes that lost there life. He lost and was disgraced before he went dumb and senile, before they abandoned the ediot in one hospital while bianca continue her as.hewo business of sleeping with Pita Hoebi and FFK. What a shame!

You Biafra surrendered to same Obasanjo, he dragged your ragtag men to Gowon in Lagos and you surrendered to him after Adekunle have suyalised many of your loudmouthed cursed fool, you are a little kid and know nothing. Awolowo was a great man that died in his sleep at the age of 78, even your worthless nonentity father was stoned to death at the age of 41 for achieving nothing in life apart from a big ogogoro bottle they gave him during una village drinking competition.

You are no match cos you keep writing jargons, your smelly mother refused to train you cos she was not even your real mother, I hope you wont join the way of your father cos your pathetic life is getting worse, continue to ram the smelly pu.ssy of your mother while smiling like a happy goat.

disumusa:
my bro, the mistak of ibo is for them to attack,opresed,war, and consificate ss people property during regional govt,war. In which yoruba did not do to other yoruba in sw.

Sweetlemon:
Why didn't you ask him why they just won't get it into their heads that most SSners are just not into them? Why always accuse us of being yorubas for Christ's sake?
Meanwhile if I'm to pick any other region apart from mine I'd pick middle belt. They are the tribe with the least drama in the country. They don't have militants, "freedom fighters", or whatever noise making, irritant groups all other regions have. If I could I would have married from the middle belt. Very lovely, humble people.

You are not new but hiding behind a new moniker. You are one of the cursed yeebhoes we have smashed here, you should be bold. You keep screaming face to face like a cursed biatch, are you trying to tell us your hairy mom and all your 36 baby factory siblings live in a face me, I slap you apartment? Oh! I get the coded message. lmao. You yeebhoes talk about cowardice but Ojuiku of cursed memory is the only coward general of the world. The coward ediot that ran away from battle after 3m useless soul were suyalised by the Nigerian army, the ediot ran away in the middle of the night like an Allen avenue a.shewo while FFK rammed and fu.cked his a.shewo wife daily without caution. Its no news to me that you are from that cursed ultimatum tribe, the worthless tribe that make noise without action. I just smile when you animals cry online cos we are used to never do wells like you. Shameless pig

disumusa:
infact if you dash or give me se ibo land free i reject it i no want.

Buhahahahaha. You are making me laugh hard. Me form allies to bash the flat head? Ask them your tribalist here and they will tell you about my moniker. I dont form allies to face you cursed animal from the erosion ravaged land. I have never open a SS moniker to bash Yeebhoes, NEVER! We have chased many of your yeebhoes warriors away from nairaland, ask collynzo and he will tell you. You are a new dunce and will be dealt with as well. Collynzo himself is hiding behind a Yoruba moniker to throw insult, several yeebhoes are hiding behind Yoruba monikers here to cause confusion so its in both sides. @AkinEgba,@ SegunAdewole e.t.c

Sure, We also hate you yeebhoes with passion. The hate is now mutual, there is no pretense here. Of course, you will love the gallant Hausa that kill you like suya cos all you need is constant attack to set your flat/ head straight. I promise you that you will also learn to love the Yorubas the day they start doing the hausa style to you on there land. Bunch of animals.
