Why must you be stupid all the time.is it intentional ignorance or you are simply just a nitwit.

Aguyi ironsi was the only head of state in Nigeria that comes from igbo potopoto republi. The political achievement i mean is the unitary system of governance he introduce. not necessary his command of leadership. well, he was the most foolish head of state Nigeria ever produce.

University of ibadan ( the foremost citadel of learning in Nigeria) is built per the focus advocate of the likes of awolowo and other yorubas.

in antiquity of nigeria history, The yeebos have been shaded from development. Buhari introduced 97% and 5% policy in Nigeria. that only favour the north and the west.Awolowo nationalized all the industries and gave it to Nigerian. Obasanjo introduced indigenization policy in Nigeria.North introduced quota system and federal character and different cut off mark on the same exam for different people in Nigeria. putting their interwst above anyone else .They gave the igbos 98 LGAs out of 756 while kano and lagos alone has more LGAs. Nigeria govt allocated only 9% of electricity generated to the east. Out of 109 seats at the national Assembly they gave them you 15 seats.


it seems you are uneducated. there is a difference betwwen given a name and creating a nation . The word africa was used only for the nothern africa now it is general name for the whole Africa. Yoruba name was adopted from a Muslim scholar who hails from Mauritania. he doesn't create yoruba nation but he gave the name yoruba . yours was created for political interest.


learn and be smart.

Condolences to every one who lost their nation and loved ones. May they rest in peace


Some people are saying US embassy knew this would happen and that it has informed its citizens. But a trusted Ethiopian source is saying the rumour is ruthless. So, as much as possible, let's keep it the way it is



Tragic moment for the airlines and all.

You seem to have totally misconstrued what I meant by "progressive ". maybe i should have said achievement my "progressive " means no of skilled workers . Is it politics that made the south-west a commercial hot-spot? (that remain an interesting question) at least the capital has moved from lagos for more than 10 years. the Yoruba's believe in sending their children to school for "IWE MEWA" which was Awolowo's belief.

Yoruba nation wasn't a creation of the fulani, that parlance is an act of miseducation. but let me borrow you some senses.In the history of Nigeria, only two men have returned to Nigeria to face almost certain death even when they had the option of a very comfortable political asylum abroad. Both of them are Yoruba. In 1985, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida toppled the Buhari regime while Major General Tunde Idiagbon (mixed Yoruba/Fulani) was at Mecca yet Idiagbon returned.

In 1995, Olusegun Obasanjo (pure Owu Yoruba) was accused of planning a coup by the blood thirsty tyrant, Abacha (if you do not like that truthful description of Abacha or if you believe that ‘Abacha did not loot’, you can go and join him where he is) while he was away in Copenhagen. He returned to face almost certain death.

What more example of bravery can there be than these two shining ones.

Furthermore, there is the apocryphal example of Colonel Francis Adekunle Fajuyi who chose to die with the Head of State, rather than abandon his guest, which he was at liberty to do. I am hard pressed to believe that if it was vice versa, Ironsi would have done the same for Fajuyi, but then again, I may be wrong.

Nanmdi azikwe was just a ceremonial president.( he was tootless) Hausa was the lrime minister then. and most of the igbo names but religion and political head yiu have mentioned up there were nere tootless. since the history of Nigeria as a country, only agunyi ironsi has attained a meaningful position among the igbo politically. All the rest are political balance to suppress the nauseating and demonstration of the igbo base on marginalization.

interesting....

Can you please answer my question who is to blame now for the nigerian soldiers been slaughtered by boko haram?

vaxx:
In no particular order. objectively or subjectively. There is the list of those who decide Nigeria destiny and it is hillarious no igbo indigine on the list of 10. check below.

Aliko Dangote - The richest man in Africa(Hausa

Femi Otedola - One of the richest in Africa (Yoruba

Muhammadu Buhari - President of the country(hauda/fulani

Theophilus Yakub Danjuma - Godfather of Nigerian politics(north central

Olusegun Obasanjo - Former and Two time president of Nigeria(Yoruba

Bola Tinubu - One of the biggest politicians. Most likely to succeed Buhari in APC.( Yoruba

Bukola Saraki - Senate President and son of a (late) political godfather( North central but Yoruba

Gen. Ibrahim B. Babangida - Former military president and a godfather too.( North central

Adam Oshiomole - Chairman of APC nationwide( South South

Abby Kyari - Chief of staff to the president. ( not an igbo

lets go into religion

Pastor E. A. Adeboye. - General overseer of the RCCG
(the biggest church in Nigeria) . The past two presidents seeked and earned his endorsement to win the election( Yoruba

Yemi Osinbajo - The second citizen and Vice president of the country.(Yoruba

Mamman Daura - Godfather and nephew to Muhammadu Buhari.(Hausa/fulani

Yakubu Dogara. - Speaker of the house of representatives.( hausa.

it is not suprised igbo has nothing to hold among this category of people and it is evidence, yoruba and Hausa hold your Destiny.

The idea that igbo has any meaningful or progressive development in lagos or southwest zone had been debunked and sent permanently to the grave. so i am surprised you are trying to awake non exsiting evidence.

well, Your ethnic group IGBO is an artificial creation of the colonial powers in their bid to unite groups who speak alike or should i say, who speak different dialects of the same language. groups such as Ikwerre, Etche, Ika, Ukwuani etc should be Igbo. They may look so Igbotic and speak what seems like a dialect of Igbo but would die before they agree to be called Igbo. it is shame there is NOTHING natural about your group.

These people should stop disgracing good people of Nigeria

See the way you reason? And you think it's funny right? You will wait till 2000 years you won't see any Biafra?

Bro you need to stop this nonsense you're doing? He's from oshogbo ehen, and so what? I'm also From oshogbo, I'm from Minna, I'm from every other states in Nigeria because they're also my father's land? I'm proudly Nigerian, and I also love every other tribes in Nigeria! Stop this tribalism of a thing because no matter the insult you insult Yoruba, they're still contributing in Nigeria. You need to stop this nonsense please! Person dey talk to you small small you no wan hear!

firstly buhari is not my President. i pledge my support to the republic of Ghana. that is where i had my national service and the only current travelling passport i hold.

i am not part of those who voted him or reject him. i didn't participate in Nigeria destiny. so spare me the generality.

But notwithstanding, Yoruba tribe are my people and my heritage. Yoruba society is already a known peace citadel. if yoruba were to be a nation of his own, he will have attain what Ghana has achieved in terms of human index development and transparency. there is high level tolerance to diversity. if you must know, using religion as a case-study, traditionally the Yorubas had up to 400 gods and goddesses combined, with each worshipping his/her own god without conflict. Today, as unequalled among any other Yoruba tribe, you can't generalize the Yorubas with a religion in particular, almost an equal share of the leading religions. Your uncle, aunty and in-laws don't necessarily share the same faith with you. Yet the peaceful co-existence is unmatched by any other Nigerian ethnic group.

The Yorubas and their towns/cities have had a distinct record of being hospitable and peaceful for living and business to other tribes. this is what omoluabi are known for.

i think nigeria need to introduce biafra history in classes. some of you guys that are mostly affected suck in it.

France, Gabon, Tanzania and Ivory Coast were the countries that openly backed Biafra

The reason why France supported Biafra during its breakaway struggles was becuse of oil. tbere is CIA report on it. if you want i may send the link here.


sure , United kingdom and Russia supported Nigeria army.

vaxx:
buffoon, france was interested in biafra because of the oil. and despite their logistic and military support, ojuukwu lost with his underfeed army..

let me educate you as usual.

France was selling his old world war equipment to biafra like B-26 fighter jets, Alouette helicopters, and also sending pilots from France. well, learn from your ancestors who is Biafra’s Envoy to France,"" Ralph Uwaeche"" that claim that the helicopters had been purchases made by the Eastern Nigerian Regional Government from France for civilian purposes well before the war.

when nigeria army blockaded the igbo land and force it into economic submission. France was sending in weapons; old World War 1 planes with the serial numbers scratched off, and caches of weapons.As Biafra was blockaded, all the supplies were airlifted into Cote D’Ivoire so it would seem like France was restocking its former colony’s armoury as part of their bilateral agreements. From there, they found their way into Biafra. or don't you really know why ojuukwu end up choosing cote d voire when he run from the war front?

Even Biafra had created the Biafran Historical Research Centre in Paris.


Lagos producing igbos governor is a sign of true federalism and progressive impact of the Yoruba . i don't see why you are unneccasry happy about this development even though the reality seems impossible. the federal system of Nigeria support it to happen and Yoruba the progressive society are willing to welcome it.

vaxx:
Lol. you were stalk right behind the ass . i did share the same country with mofo like you. i am not denying that. yet i still share another home with some progressive people elsewhere.

vaxx:
You are pained.

vaxx:
not yet mr illiterate . even with France support of biafra, ojuukwu and his untrained army still lost.


Even the so called MASSOB or IPOB are failling now.to offer a united front with which to present their case in a way deemed legal, their war lord failed on the battle field and they themselves are now failing intellectually. .

check out the recent Catalan referendum. it is such a prime example of one path which Eastern Nigeria would have pressured the government to act. By conducting a howbeit, illegal vote count, they would have effectively placed a number on the amount wanting separation.

But until the IPOB provides, that majority indeed wants separation The Government’s stance would still remains; and your illiterate mofo will forever be viewed as a rebels to the peace of the country.


Asking me if an igbo will become a lagos state governor is a stupid question. Yoruba people are progressive. They are the most civilized tribe of Nigeria. giving your brethren an opportunity to rule lagos administrative position is not an issue but a collective will of federalism which Yoruba play a major role. even an Hausa can rule lagos.

jaycent:
Well, tbh with you. I don't know how to speak Igbo very well because I was born and brought up in the north? I'm from anambra state, nnewi otolo North? Right now I'm in onitsha?

stormwarrior:
it all due respect can u plz stop all diz yorubeer stuff plz,it Yoruba not yorubeer don't let me support a Ghanian over my Nigerian sisztar plz,

vaxx:
illiterate mofo. yet same obasonjo was the reason your succession become almost impossible.

Ojukwu the lazy warrior could not win the war against Gowon.logistically nigeria army was better equipped and could get their logistic under control and their rmy are well fed and equipped. unlike Ojuukwu who had flew to ivory coast to save his own life. living his untrained army in limbo At least we all know how . biafra untrained army were hungry and under equipped since lazy ojukwu run between his legs.

War is not won by spirit and emotion, but by logistics and preparation. This is all written in the Art of War.

Ojukwu and his untrained army lost the war just by the food blockade without even real fighting on the battle field. The food blockade was enough to starve Biafra into submission. Biafra wants to be independent because of the oil fields.

Dear Afonjas, Igbos, Ab0kis
Let's forget APC and PDP and face the reality at hand.
Where do we go from here?
These old Men are killing us just to remain in Power while they groom their Children abroad to come back in 2023 and continue from where they will stop.
Buhari mid 70
Atiku early 70
Tinubu 70s
Oshiohmole 70s
Osibanjo early 60s

Youths are their thugs dying, while they collectively loot and decamp from parties and take care of their children who will return tomorrow to continue from them.

For instance when DASUKI flood gate opened
Hausa politicians benefited
Middle belt politicians benefited
Yoruba christian politicians benefited
Yoruba Muslim politicians benefited
Igbo politicians benefited
There was no religious war or ethnocentrism

But you and I here are attacking ourselves while they collectively loot over our stupidity!

We have to think!!!

vaxx:
You are so daft. his strategical planning was still the result of you being part of Nigeria today.


If your god ojuukwu was clever by half.he will not run between his leg while leaving your ancestors he promised a better life to die like wall gecko.

jaycent:
Bro not all igbos hate Nigeria? I'm also an Igbo person. We're fighting for peace and not for Biafra? Please you need to stop this chest beating? Because all tribes are contributing in Nigeria. Remember, Yorubas and igbos are best friends now. Anything they do, they do it together eg. Movies, football, music, business etc

Please stop this tribalism of a thing because you're a Nigerian no matter what you do or say about this country?
