Mobile refinery and retrofitted planes yes. Mobile transmitter and Javelin bombs no. The former could be linked to the British and the latter, the Germans. If the Ibos had enough guns, if they were well armed via indegenous technology, the British wouldn't have the motivation to fight them as they had no motivation to fight Japan. In fact, the Igbo country was a dense tropical forest where everything would have worked against the invaders. The British had only one confidence - advanced weaponry.

You sound quite knowledgeable, I almost assumed you wouldn't back up your statements due to your moniker — sorry about that.

Anyway, I'm honestly curious to know why the Igbos never formed one single identity strong enough to become politically and ideologically strong.

Because till date, different Igbo groups can tell you which place in Igboland they originated from and the Igbo group they're closely related to. These Igbo groups were closer to each other but never found a strong political alliance.

Igbos that pioneeered mobile refinery,mobile transmitter, javelin bombs , retrofitted planes, etc

Igbos fought the British twice , during the Anglo-Aro war which resulted in many casualties among the British and also during Ekumeku war , were the employed guerrilla tactics and agile attacks against the British.

If Japan was a geopolitical zone in Nigeria, they would have been attacked by the british and other Nigerians

I actually thought the OP wouldn't take his time to write down his pointsbut he actually did and made some sense in his own way because most of the events he mentioned were historical facts.

However, he forgot to mention that Japan birthed a single identity before their first 'fierce' European encounter. The Igbos were mostly republican and never united under one flag, till date, I just don't understand the reason.

I hope to find out exactly why the Igbos refused to form a single identity strong enough to build political power, there are a lot of things we don't know about our past.

Abba Dan Uwa! I'm going through a hard time but kana sani dariya.

I knew Fulham cud score first or even win or draw the match.. but, it's much safer not to trust a small team to win or draw a mat h against a much bigger team... Based on experience.. this why I chose to wait for Tot to score first b4 stake on Fulham to score.. cos it's certain they were gonna retaliate..

I just noticed that Fulham are leading by 3 goals! 😳😳

I don't fvcking care about someone stereotyping me because I've got beautiful brown eyes and chocolate/lightskinned skin like "Igbos" while ignoring the fact that Mr. Ibu and millions of darkskinned folks are Igbos too.

I don't care as long as you're not a threat to me, my loved ones, or my people. I'm prohuman and will always remind myself to judge people based on the content of their character rather than their ethnicity, skin color, or any other stereotypes.

What a lot of people fail to understand is, racism, tribalism, and many other 'isms' will always exist because humans are sentient. People will always prefer their kind or at least people that they can relate to.

The most foolish thing is allowing yourself to be controlled by those assumptions and sentiments. Even my Igbo cousin is quick to talk about how he wants nothing to do with Yorubas and warns me that my "humanity first" policy will put me in trouble but I'm undisturbed.

An asshole will be treated like one, I don't care about his religion, ethnicity, or skin color regardless of my beliefs and sentiments. For example, I don't understand Islam but I still hang out with Moslems — I have the ability to go from "an eye for an eye" to "forgive and forget."

Today was also hellish because like yesterday, I trekked a on distance and fetched water which this cousin of mine uses without much care.

Anyway, when I woke up in the morning (5 am), my throat was so dried up that I had drink water and decided I would b drinking water at intervals — I drank water about 3 or 4 times before it was time to break the fasting. I also went on job hunting...

Right now, my chest is hurting and ulcer is trying to penetrate; it's probably because I haven't ate any nutritious food for a long time.

Day 5 was successful, I drank water thrice. Day 6 is ongoing...

No look sir, the thing is very painful with the way people are dying in this country all these guys care is to loot and steal our resources for themselves and their children? Please how many people 500m will pay their school fees? Since that is how the country is, we will wait for our time too. I'm weak.

Yeah I get it but it's better we divide the country and get our people out of this mess than make things worst while the white supremacists laugh at us. Imagine what would happen if this continues, Africa will never be great and one day, our descendants might be enslaved since we are literally powerless. Why do we have to keep shouting "One Nigeria" when we don't have what it takes to tackle our problems as one people? Do you think these politicians believe in Nigeria? Can you loot your father's wealth recklessly like these demons?

iLegendd:
God will see you through and you'll smile at last. It's a guarantee as long as you don't give up.

Thanks a lot, boss. This means a lot to me.

I'm available. Let me do the work and get paid.

Nairalanders, I'm literally starving right now; I don't even know how I'm going to break my fasting today. Please I'm available for any menial jobs.

Hassanmaye:
You are a bad guy. Our Time Will come we go loot this country I swear

I'm proudly unpatriotic and for those of you hating people who want nothing to do with Nigeria, I hope y'all can see comments like the one I quoted? This is the mindset of an average Nigerian.

onuman:
Boreholes for untreated water supply system when surface water supply system has long been in use in other countries for public water supply system. N196m for a borehole that can cost N1m to sink.
Stuck in Reverse. Looking for a referendum for Nigeria's groups to decide whether or not they want this stuck in reverse country called Nigeria.

Do you still need a referendum to understand that we are tired of this shit hole? I can't keep being patriotic while my future is being sold by some evil black people. And even when the country is divided, if this level of corruption continues, the revolution will be the bloodiest ever seen before.

How can I be starving while these guys are destroying my future and still asking me to be patriotic?! 😠

I hate Nigeria with every drop of blood in me, I can't even feed myself and I'm a hardworking 22 year old man yet look at what these demons are doing 😭. I'm heartbroken and I will give my life so I never come to this evil and useless country in my next life.

As for those supporting these evil politicians, your entire generation will suffer worst than we are suffering, they will all suffer till they die — as for the politicians, their punishment would be worst than any human has ever gone through.

Just take a look at my account balance😭:

superonyi u are adding more pepper to ur peppered life by join this illusion called betting

Please don't make me laugh, how can I bet when I don't even have money to eat especially in this Ramadan?

Most matches yesterday played oer 2.5 🙆🏿‍♂️

iLegendd:
You should've used them to create Tiktok/YouTube contents. They get millions of views. When you were buying, you should've recorded. The first time you went to play with them record. By now we would've been watching the video of the bite and laughing in exchange fo views and money.

Some of your posts make me want to cry because I've really learned a lot from you plus all these ideas that keeps popping up but the frustration is overwhelming.

I just saw this post at this particular moment that I'm looking for a way to monetize the hardship I'm currently battling so I don't have to go back to doing monkey dey work, baboon dey chop jobs to raise money for some emergency necessities.

I noticed how slow the network was 🤦🏿‍♂️

budaatum:
I guess you didn't exactly succeed.


If you continue after this, don't forget to start again from 1.

LalastiklaIa:
Day 3- just drank water and took malt so success to me as I keep going

Today was hell but I still succeeded, I drank 3 sachet water when it was time to break the fasting (6:48pm). I just drank a bottle of soda (coke), bread (200), and akara (150) with my last penny while I think of a way to pay back the remaining 100 naira debt.

Today was really hell, I trekked for an hour while I was trying to get something to do. We go again tomorrow...

olamilarks:
Hang in there bro. It will get better.

Thanks bro, I appreciate.

Nobody even noticed that the young man who thought he had his life planned out used chatgpt to properly 'plan' this article.

Expanse2020:
You guys like to create a problem where there is none..

Did he insult anybody? Anyway, I'm fasting because I want and break the fasting the same time Moslems break theirs. What's wrong about that?

Even though I'm not religious, I grew up around Moslems and my mother is a Christians (and Christians are also fasting right now, hope you know that?); so I'm basically fasting because I need help as I'm going through one of the worst periods in my life.
