meccuno:
did awolowo die for the Igbos?

Kapeter:
how's it impossible efighter?

IGBOSON1:
Opadokun was saying nothing reasonable! You people that keep on trying to force the narrative that Awo as a person was blameless in his conduct before, during and immediately after the uncivil war are responsible for the abuse and curses the man keeps on receiving from some Igbos and other Biafrans! You wouldn't allow him to RIP with this your revisionist attitude!

jkendy:
You should have simply stated specifically what Awolowo did for the Ibos during that trying moment that would warrant the accolades and respect you're trying hard to accord him

ImperialYoruba:
Ok i was under the wrong impression then. I thought it was gazzeted.

You know this crap they talk about gazzeted grazing routes. They hold that shytte to be set in concrete....like its some sacred order or some fck like that. Our leaders in West really need to be on top of their game and make sure they issue counter message whenever the talk of gazetted grazing route is mentioned. Otherwise it will soon become normal to enforce it even in places never included in the gazette. No place in Yorubaland is in the grazing route gazetted for fulani. It was gazetted by british adminostrators that constructed the first ruga for the herders. Not even Kwara or Kogi, surprisingly, was included.

Back then fulani grazing territory was limited to between Latitude 9.5 degrees and 13.00 degrees North. This would be like places on same latitude with Minna, Niger State all the way up to Katsina border with Niger Republic in North.

No place below latitude 9.5 degrees was gazetted as grazing route for Fulani or for ruga setllement.

Yujin:
Keep your advice to yourself. Igbos will leave your land en mass after the disintegration not before because no one will condition us on how to live. Our fathers left before and you gathered yourselves to our land. This time around we stay put wherever and slug it out until the division has been finalized with UN backing before we leave.

stonemasonn:
I wonder why there were few yoruba soldiers in the army

Yujin:
It's just a matter of time. Nothing lasts forever. Hopefully, it shall happen in your time.

shamecurls:
They should give them the Biafra abeg..

Tired of all this chest-beating.

Make dem go back to their region abegi!

mrvitalis:
This is how pain someone is when they pay rent to a stranger ( igbo ) in his own land

Make sure u pay your landlord

wingmanII:
Why is this necessary? Why insult Zik?
hating Igbos will not add anything to you rather will only diminish you.

What insult? Am just stating a Fact

Yorubasaredogs:
When will all these self inflicted jealousy against the igbo people stop. How can someone spend his entire time on this forum insulting igbos. He uses different monikers attacking people that care not of his existence. Imagine.

helinues:
Biafra that some of us is praying to come quick so that we can have peace and know the real Nigerians instead of them being saboteurs

ImperialYoruba:
Ok. Has the ruga thing not been gazzetted?

frosbel2:
Okay, now I understand your background - a typical backward tribalist not so different from Adeyinka Grandson. With more of your type Africa is destined to remain at the bottom.

horsepower101:
Like seriously? Oga chill. It’s not that serious.

horsepower101:
I have stated the facts. Average enlightened Nigerian women are able to see through the propaganda against igbos. When they go about their daily lives, they closely observe all types of men and their behaviors and attitudes.

goodnessme1:
You can have it in north and west but not anywhere near the better south.

horsepower101:
Two years ago, a radio show in Lagos asked Nigerian women what tribes men that they prefer to date and marry.

Overwhelming majority picked Igbo men.

Enough said.

Dande55:
Coming from someone whose tribe fought among themselves which was recorded as the longest inter tribal war in the whole world which lasted for Morethan 70years. Oyo and ekiti, ogun and Oyo. Okun people being discriminated by their fellow state men, ijebu people seen as inferior Yoruba and Osun people deviating from owo to emir. You dingbat don't want to go this lane with me.

You all always like to throw shades at people while you are worse off.

@ bolded..........................Geez!!! The record must have been kept by your uncle in your hamlet in abakaliki or was it your grandmother who told your mum about the record?

In fact, the war lasted for 150years

tooth4tooth:
Why are you misleading people Must you comment on what you have little or no knowledge about?

frosbel2:
Me ? I am an Igbo guy who wants a one Nigeria united front.

The video I posted is just something i randomly watched on youtube and brought here for discussion

Thanks.

Westtimeline:
Yes, I know they always tell you people. No be today. Is either your brother tells you, or your uncle tells you, or you meet imaginary person who always tells you. Meanwhile, I am from ondo, Akure south. You can ask of Oda land, that where I am from in akure. Stop deceiving yourself, need I tell you how happy most igbos I met in service were when I told them they look like yorubas.

These are the wanna be "ibo-lagosians"......

helinues:
Afraid of what oo?

ImperialYoruba:
Fulani is lucky i was on ban when that ruga nonsense was still hot. I would have told them some honest and neked truth about their ancestry. These people are playing on the weakness of this loose and incoherent sovereingty. The same people started shariah and got away with it. Now they believe they can also get away with ruga. They are going to get it though, thats just the honest reality. We may not like it and fight it but they are going to get it.

goodnessme1:
;Di created it to learn something about ondo state.

Yujin:
You're still stuck with the wrong narrative that nothing I say can change your line of thought. Out of the several coup carried out in Nigeria, only one has a tribe attached to it. Isn't that deliberate? The way you sound is quite annoying. Despite the fact that that first coup had other tribes as active participants, you still hanged it on Igbos. Coups everywhere are carried out by military personnel but for your likes, that coup was an Igbo coup. Everyone knows that any action has an opposite reaction which in the case of humans may not be equal but we must be sincere to apportion blames to the appropriate quarters. Your hate still surfaced when you included Ojukwu as one of those that stopped Adaka Boro's secession. Where was Ojukwu then and what was his rank? What role did he play? I'm not interested in any dick measurement with Yorubas because both groups have achieved a lot and deserve some respect. However, the deliberate attempt of majority of your type in Yorubaland to profile Ndigbo and ensure that the evil narrative and the subsequent oppressive treatment meted on us will be challenged by Igbos like me and believe me we are in millions. You and the rest of your likes both in Yorubaland and other tribes in Nigeria can never win. No matter the cost, we will explore it and bet me, if it degenerates to violence again, it will spell doom for the negriod people. If you're not comfortable with Igbos, then support their secession and build your Nigeria with those you're comfortable with. However, if you insist on denying and worst still continue to negatively represent us to the world then you will get what you deserve. Our youth are fully aware of what your likes are doing and we will give it back to you in full measure. Our nation is a great one and in due time, we shall bring forth our own unique contribution to humanity. None of your likes can stop us.

Beremx:
show me with proof of any Fulani herdsmen that have been arrested or convicted of massacre. Do you have any? Like I said earlier, don't absolve Igbos of crimes and portray others as saints. We have criminals in every ethnic group.

Beremx:
na you sabi. He's a saint where Tinubu is. You want me and you to start picking out criminals from our ethnic groups? Ogbeni, I don't indulge in bigotry. I know you are an Agbalagba in that aspect. .

Peace out!

Yes ke! Invictus Obi is a saint in comparison to Tinubu but then, that's is your blinkered perspective but i won't rush off to tag you a bigot.

Who's going into dick measuring with you? Not me. Am well aware that you guys are the best thing since sliced bread

Btw, whatever became of the Ozobulu massacre? Was anyone arrested for the horrendous crime? Probably not as the main drug kingpin (in SA) is a friend of the then governor.

Beremx:
You want to tell me other ethnic groups don't run drug cartels to? Why single out only Igbos? There is no ethnic group that does not indulge in crime whether in or outside the country. Please stop portraying your ethnic group as saints. SA doesn't know who is Igbo or Yoruba if not why did your kinsmen run to the bush and made a video crying for help. Why weren't they spared by S. Africans? As bad as you think Igbos are drug pushers, the same Igbos have the highest number of legitimate business men in SA.

Beremx:
These ones heaping the blame on Igbos for running drug cartels in SA, what do you tend to achieve? SA do not know who is Yoruba or Igbo or Benin. Nigerians are Nigerians.

Idiots trying to exonerate other ethnic groups and absolve Igbos of crime.

Nonsense

Most Nigerian Tribes have nothing outside Nigeria , Nigeria is their last hope and last strenght , that is why ehn they hear Biafr they feel all hope is lost . Most Nigerians have more faith in Nigeria than is the Most high God. Nigeria the the religion of some yorubas and Huasa/fulani so much that they will go any extra lenght to sustain Nigeria[/s]
