PoliticsRe: Google Clebrates Olaudah Equiano's 272nd Birthday With Image by timsTNA: 2:50pm On Oct 16, 2017
TheKingIsHere:
You guys are the ones shifting attention. You claim igbos are Jews another here claims igbos are hebrews.

Now, you claim Olaudah is Eboe because he mentioned Eboe but failed to acknowledge that he also mentioned that he was from Estako which was under the Acient Benin Kingdom.

So i want to ask because i had this discussion before on NL in the past.

Are igbos from the acient benin kingdom if truly Olaudah is Igbo? I await your answer.

Here is a Narrative of the Life of Olaudah;
https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Interesting_Narrative_of_the_Life_of_Olaudah_Equiano,_or_Gustavus_Vassa,_the_African/Chapter_1
Jews/ Hebrews are used to refer to the same people. What does Equano(Ikwano) mean in Benin? It means loud voice in Igbo. What does afor, orie, nkwo mean in Benin? It means the calendar format of the Igbo as he rightly stated in his book. In his book, theman paints Igbo culture, even as well as Chinua Achebe did in things fall apart. But i guess you will stick to being half wise in this debate

This is what i found out from my research.

You can try to shift attention from the topic all day, however the fact remains.
Equano said it himself that he was Igbo. He talked about the Igbo culture in his early life in Africa. Heentioned the Igbo calendar format and the rest is history

Okay sir. Whatever suits your boat.

Same way you guys claimed Jews for eons..

Even the white man recognized the similarities between the Igbo culture and Judaism, which is the culture of the Jews. Read the post above your post for further enlightenment as excerpts from a colonial book states clearly

A man who called himself igbo and rightfully so. On that same Wikipedia you quote, check out the list of prominent Igbo and you'll find Equano among the names

Equiano became a rich man and the work is still read and revered to this day as a masterpiece of the colonial period.

He was born on 16 October 1746 in Essaka in the Eboe province of southern Nigeria

The buhari administration is just an ordinary government. It will come and go.
Even if the SE played horrible politics under him, this government is too inconsequential for it to have any real effect of the political future of a great ethnic group as ndi-igbo who has been playing Nigerian politics long before buhari became anything of worth.
The fact that you believe the reception of ndi-igbo to a governenet of 8 years at most will have any long-time negative effect on the future of ndi-igbo is the height of insults.
If anything, this administration has endeared Igbo to the heart of people because we never supported him due to his nepotism and incompetence. Now they see things from our point of view

Reference:
The biggest loser in all this is Tinubu. His empire is shorn in half and like the Emperors who once ruled Rome, watches painfully as once loyal lieutenants now jostle to unseat him. Surely Abuja now shops for a replacement for the crown of the west... and there will be plenty young turks to fill the shoes. Whether they can do so or not remains to be seen.

The ACN was always a regional party. They have tested the waters abroad, reached out across the branch perhaps too far and now the crackling sounds of danger are becoming all too frequent. To avoid a catastrophe it is better they retrace their steps back to the Bourdillon to avoid a fatal fall. The experiment to Abuja has clearly failed.....like Napoleons attempt to the east of Europe, like General Paulus attempt at the Soviets....Tinubu perhaps in his heart of hearts perhaps wished he never climbed that tree. Call 911 for the emergency services to bring him down before something bad happens....
Tinubu is a short sighted, impulsive politician. Not qualities of a leader, well except you're leading a bunch of power hungry backstabbers

Dino went to Lagos and challenged your tin god in his own backyard and tinubu hid like a chicken, sending his wife to fight his battles. Buhari abandoned tinubu is his fight against sariki and have since mended bridges with the senate president. Yoruba are so divided within themselves with different camps putting out contradictory statements everyday and a house that fights against itself can't stand. No amount of running your mouths will get Yoruba into relevance because y'all play politics of betrayal and guess what? There isn't anybody for y'all to betray this time around.

Dino and saraki are your kin and they have virtually no political relationship with south west politicians. All their allies are from every other zones but the south west. Also they both got into fights with your political strongman tinubu and beat him silly.

You are making my point. You never played such horrible politics as you're doing now, under those administrations, for obvious reasons.

The horrible politics I'm referring to is politics of hatred and blackmail; insulting and denigrating those that you disagree with, and threatening to burn the country and break it apart because you've lost political relevance and representation.

What you don't understand is that competing for political relevance does not equate to burning bridges through blackmail, threats, character assassination and ethnic denigration. That's why the North can compete politically with the SW without being at each other's throats.
Lmao. Bolding your comments just makes you look like an empty vessel making the loudest noise. Threatening to drown people in the lagoon for not voting your candidate is love speech right. Threatening to make a county ungovernable and drenching baboons and dogs in blood is the statement made by saints abi?

Igbos and their dependent nature.

They can't stand on their own

I love Yorubas, they don't even call Edo or Delta in all their political adventures

But Igbos, lowlifes can't even do anything on their own

In your agitation and ipob madness, how many people in Delta, Edo, Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa and Cross river state associate them with your struggle?

You are like Northern politicians who are fixed on middleBeltans to survive politically.

The only two regions that ll run their countries without alliance with other regions are South South Nation(Niger-Delta) and Yorubas Nation.

Arewa can even survive on their own by forming alliance with Niger and Chad.

In your case, you ll be at the mercy of other Nigerians; Niger-Deltans ll be your lifeline and Yorubas.

In 70s during the war, the only reason you guys died in millions is just a simple application of blockade and the whole life of Igbos came crashing.

You guys see yourselves as important but other Nigerians are laughing at y'all.

You guys left South West in 70s during the civil war and nobody even missed you guys. We carried on with our lives.

During MKO Abiola brouhaha, Igbos ran to the East, nobody missed you guys.

The Northerners killed you guys themselves vid they don't need Igbos.

After the war, if you are that independent, you suppose to cut ties with the North and West by reducing your numbers to the minimal level but guess what, your numbers skyrocketed after the war till date. What does that tell you?

Guess what, the Odua citizens hardly come to your region even Arewa and Niger-deltans. Yorubas ll never think of coming to your region out of all regions in Nigeria hence their few numbers in your region. They believed they are better of in their region. Yorubas ll rather go to USA/UK/Canada and Ireland than venturing into any other parts of the country. Why? Cos they know that there is no other parts of Nigeria that can give them what they want economically while your kinsmen Yankee or Europe is Yoruba land.

All these points will give you an idea of who ll suffer more in eventuality of war or separation.

The secret you don't know why countries don't allow regional governments to break is this, if central government allows one region to break away, the rest ll go. It's the same all over the world.

In USA, the state of California wants to break away from the rest of USA.

Texas wants to leave too.

In UK, Scotland and North Ireland wants to go too.

In Spain, Catalonia wants to go

In Belgium, both North and South of Belgium want to go their separate ways but the central govt refused.

So the essence of Igbos being kept in this union is what i have just told you.

If Yorubas was in war with Federal govt just like the way you were in war then, Yorubas would be able to feed themselves cos they have access to sea in almost all their states. This alone is enough to survive on economically.

There several countries around the world surviving on tourism alone.
