We the Abakaliki subgroup of Igbo ethnicity have been politically,socially and economical defranchised by our very own tribesmen for a very long time, until 1996 when the military regime of Gen Sani Abacha created a new state called Ebonyi.
And here we are with so much accomplishments, especially in the infrastructural and human capital development.
may the soul of Sani Abacha continue to rest in peace, despite his shortcomings.
Of a truth, Ebonyi have been blessed with good leadership from Sam Egwu to Martin Elechi to Dave Umahi.

Kabongo1:
This is why the civil war didn't succeed, because the igbos just wanted to replace the North with themselves, becoming the dominant group in the former South East and claiming every other state as theirs.


There's no day on nairaland that you don't see a thread regarding the igbos claiming lands that don't belong to them.

Look closely at the issues with this group and its the same concern, every other group in Nigeria has with them. Its crazy.

BKayy:
You are more foolish than I thought.

If I want to help fools, I engage those that have hope of redemption.

As you can see, you have no hope. Only you can help yourself.

Keep whatever you have been planning to say to me since you registered on Nairaland aside and read about the paper bag test, it's adoption by the slaves and subsequently freed slaves.
I think this short answer from a reasonable person can help you in your quest for self redemption. He posted some sources in it so that it can help people like you. I would have posted many shots from my books, but like I said "I am not interested in helping you"

Don't ever quote me again.
Thanks

9Pluto:
Beautiful! But he forgot to talk about the ijaw people that cover '6 states' in the Niger delta. Were they so invisible?

BKayy:
Fools like you have existed before during slave trade.

Google "PAPER BAG TEST" and see what those that reincarnated as you people did as slaves in Jamaica.

Don't quote me until you read about it

aribisala0:
OK but for now they are not doing that .
THE CANDIDATE(s) have to come out and contest as NIGERIANS

and as INDIVIDUALS

I do not recall any person coming out to contest as Fulani ever winning the presidency



The problem is even before starting there is a lot of damage to be undone . The politics of threats , tantrums and ultimatums will achieve NOTHING


There is no rational explanation for the hateful behaviour of IPOB toward other Nigerians and many bridges have been burnt

BKayy:
You are the most stupid idiot I have ever seen.

If you have little sense, you would have known that siblings can come in different shades. So, according to your stupidity some are real while the rest are fake.

Mpama

aribisala0:
How are they doing that?

I do not see it

Let that candidate or candidates come out and start "doing that"

If a man is interested in a woman he talks to her directly

GreenArrow1:
You people long ago crossed that point of no return with your insults and arrogance. The only thing you'll get from trying to be diplomatic via begging would be mockery. Not the presidency.
Not in the next 32 years at least.

DubaiLandLord1:
If you no carry your foolish and senseless talk come Nairaland, I won't give a dam about all this shit

DubaiLandLord1:
Attache by force people

9Pluto:
While most of these submissions are valid, I would object to the idea of supporting Dakuku because of this as well as you your title. When you say how to get them back, it gives the impression that they were lost an you want to claim them.

The true situation is this:
Their history has been distorted
Their history is being distorted and the last phase of the on-going historical revisionism, is the attempt by some tribes to stop some of them from speaking in their native tongue.
There is an attempt to colonized them with a different language and this should rightly be condemned by everyone.

@OP cc ThumbzTNA uploading snippets like the one below and properly referencing them would give a better perspective to what you are talking about.
By Baikie, William Balfour, 1825-1864

Most of them needs to be shown their true history so they could make more informed decisions and start asserting themselves.

Gbagura:
Tell the truth, you have a flat head. Snap your head make I see

Gbagura:
Las las, your elders don dey crawl across Nigeria for presidency they won't get. They must ask all ipob touts including you princeofigbo to kneel before tinubu in bourdillion. This news dey sweet me abeg

MelesZenawi:
[b]

You guys should allow these people rest.

None of u guys arguing all these nonsense are even from opobo.

If you reason like this then you are nothing more than a low IQ hypocrite who likes to hear the sound of his own voice even if he is saying the dumbest shvt


This is tantamount to asking Nigerians why they help South Africa during the apartheid, afterall they werent South Africans. When injustice and lies are being peddled, you stand against it. period.

Let them decide who they want to be and so be it.

Stop dragging a whole town unnecessarily.


What rubbish. People will just be constituting nuisance.

If you were wise even small, you know that a foreign people are systematically trying to wipe out the indigenuos language of the opobos and forcing them to speak Ijaw. That is forced assimilation on a large scale and nowhere in the world is such an act not evil.

You from Ebonyi state what is your business with what opobo people decides to be addressed as?

Defending the truth is a universal humanitarian act and it does not matter where I come from.

Moreover I am Igbo and all Igbo are interwoven both in history and destiny.
When hausa muslims start killing, do they ask who is Igbo from opobo and who is Igbo from Afikpo?

Mad people everywhere

I know people like you, people whom anything good that comes to the igbo pains you. Well I am here to tell you that your pain has just started.

West1side:
2 should be 1
1 should be 2

The others are OK.

Reason - Everything Umahi built mall road bridge airport Obiano built beta quality ones.

Till date the bridge Obaino built is what Igbos use to do yanga when compared to other regions not the ones build by Umahi which are just regular.

The same thing goes for the airport Obiano built with Umahi yet to complete his, there is no where in the face of the Earth an uncompleted project should rated higher than a recently completed one.

Umahi 8 years he never built any bridge like Obiano did buily over Nengo River Bridge, Nteje.

I know PDP clowns n fools will not accord Obiano the right title of the best performing governor in the East but the truth is obvious to the dead.

Sholaco:
Hahahahahaha this people self
