Imagine if Chisco, Ekene dili chukwu, God is good motors, ifesinachi(or how do you name it) and many other great igbo transport brands first determined to patronize their "brother" exclusively, then the charity would be spread to the South West.

Shut up

They do buy innosson..I am so sure of that

Look at how Yoruba traders are lamenting .....the igbo traders have moved on

What Lagos did was growing stone in market forgetting that it will hit their people more

There is a clear difference between 'opposition' and endless 'nagging' like a scorned 2nd wife.
Everybody cannot like Buhari and nobody is asking everyone to like Buhari (elections are loooong over) but there is something called 'minding your business' or 'not giving a damn' when a person you don't like passes by.

If we must be honest with ourselves, the way most Igbos are carrying this Buhari's matter on their head today can obviously not be classified as 'opposition' or 'not giving a damn,' what we have today is clearly a case of people nagging and stressing themselves unnecessarily as if Buhari will rule forever - at most Buhari may only even rule till 2019. It is high time Igbos returned to the 'we dont give a damn' mode and stop some unnecessary nagging which may not be beneficial 'development-wise'.
This is just my opinion though.

Pls differentiate between opposition and this your nagging


I know that your the dullard the bubu apologist

TheArchangel:
Tonychristopher I understand you perfectly but people that are into intertribal marriages won't like your comments. Though your stats are over the top but I have seen both played out over and again.


I do not support Nigerian intertribal marriage......lots of baggages to contend with. Marry a white or non Nigerian instead.

They know these things but will want to play ostrich


I pray their work

You've been watching too much cartoon, the British has a most ferocious Armada, their naval might was all conquering and the organization of their fighting force advanced for most of the armies that came their way.

As dangerous as drones can be their is a limiting factor which is a small payload, the primary uses of drones remain selective assassination and extended surveillance.

Effective anti air defense renders a drone useless, they are slow flying, limited defense and very expensive to deploy a large fleet.

The reason drones make sense in the COIN missions in Iraq, Afghanistan is because the marines and SOPs have already done the dirty ground job. From now until effective fighting robots are developed drones would never replace boots on ground.

There is nothing the US want more than boots on ground in Syria no matter how many sorties they fly , the effectiveness of srike missions can never match a well trained soldier.

If the effectiveness can match well trained soikders why is our army complaining of modern war tools ....or will you deny that



Do you know why the world war 2 stopped...its simple technology ...ATOMIC BOMBS just two dropped ..with all the Japanese kamikazes fighter pilots

Just two bombs stopped it

Bin Laden's was fished out with drones ..have your heard of 99.99% presicion bombing


Why is NORTH KOREA making noise ...because they gave modern war chest ..not humans



Now let me lecture you strategy 101

Before you capture a territory there is what is called collaboration between the air bombardment and the one from the sea via war ships and subs ...that's is if the enemy territory is littoral.. This will create a shock and awe syndrome in enemy camp

Then after this you send few tropues preferably vangaurds and snippets with recoignanse ...they wikkk do the mop up...this us depending in the weakness of the enemy


I insist that we need a modern war chest not 200k army

Qunatity ain't quality though they might sound alike



Now ...say thank you for this brief crash course cum lecture ...its my valentine gift to you


It's free

This man you don't get it


When USA or Russian goes to war they don't send tons of troupes they send well motivated and intelligent troupes not these zokachi abunchi ones we have

I keep saying it ....its better to have few tropues that are highly technology compliant than bunch of troupes

Our army still uses a 1947 Kalashnikov riffle...what a travesty ..have you seen NATO defence forces using that or even isreali army


Omo go and upgrade your defense system and do research not recruiting tons of innocent men


This is 21st century


Wake up now the coffee is still hot with cream Oga

As far as I'm concerned, the typical hausa-fulani man does not like an igbo man but if there is any special hatred or bias buhari has for igbos today, it is as a direct result of the way the SE has been treating him since the pre and post 2011 and 2015 election era all because of GEJ. It is high time the SE realises that elections are over now and that GEJ is no more; this is the time to go back and attend to our businesses and forget this buhari matter because buhari will not even be president forever. I can beat my chest and say buhati did not harbor any particular hatred for igbos especially when he picked igbo running mates in 2003 and 2007. All these allegations and counter allegations are just GEJ sentiments.

Igbos don't do heard mentality
Igbos don't do flock mentality
Everybody won't like buhari
Everybody never liked Jesus
Everybody never like Muhammed
Everybody never liked budha

So buhari is just a mortal and he will be opposed and igbos are doing that job perfectly

The beauty of opposition is democracy


Now how is your kunu sipping gworo chewing god faring ...is he back in the country
Has he given you the 5k monthly promised
Has he made fuel 40 naira
Gas he technically defeated boko haram
Has he brought back chibok girls
Has he made dollar at par with naira
Has he balanced the governance in terms of age and tribes
Has he put square oegs in square holes


Has he....so many things



You must understand that there is opposition. And igbo are doing that



Do igbos even give a damn I doubt that

thorpido:
How did you arrive at 90%?Can we see your data sheet?

This is empirical why don't you you do a survey and see for yourself I am not in stats 101 lecture hall


As I said

Follow biblical injunction and I advise people to stick to their kind

It is pointless been the black sheep

But whatever sails your boat rock with it


The bottom line is 90% of those that maried ....are seen that way

My observation dearie

thorpido:
The statement you made is conclusive so there's no need to jump here.
You're igbo and feel any lady that marries outside of igbo has a problem.
That's poor!

I never said that I said 90% so get your facts straight and that is the fact

sweetgala:
Here comes someone who has little knowledge of military tactics and war plans. The main question we need to ask is if we have enough men in the armed forces to secure our wide expanse of land as it is right now.

The answer remains no, hopefully a great number of those new intakes would be military professionals,architects, engineers etc who can reduce our dependency on foreign technology in our defence structure.

Mr military strategist ..war is t won on the population of soldiers but sophistication and intelligence of few

This is why isreal won the war
This is why Biafra took years to fight when they called it police action
This is why Rome and British ruled the world with few army


Oga a well modernized drone with anti ballistic and air to surface missile can do what a battalion and infantiry can do

A well sub marine can wreck devastating effects on a city like say port Harcourt and Lagos in 24 hours then some few tropues maybe a brigade will do the mopping up


Having bunch of 200k military won't guarantee peace

If you have ever travelled to developed countries you won't be seeing police everywhere but CCTV and IPTV ..this is technology ....technology will do the work of thousands men put together ...tats is modern missile


When ISIL was making noise Russian sent missile like thousands miles to nuke or bombard them from Caspian Sea ...the devastating effects t was colosal..this is why nations invest in research and development but here in nigeria we want to recruit tons and tons of men

Oga this is 21st century ...its technology that rules every thing even military


Wake up and smell the coffee ...its decaffeinated

No na Bukum Bukum!

thorpido:
Now the bolded is flawed,very flawed.Do you mean growing up in the east means being well brought up? A lady who is raised in the west and 'well brought up' necessarily must marry an igbo guy?An igbo lady raised outside of the east and working in a multinational with all the exposure must marry an igbo guy?If she does then she must be bad and with a dirty history?
Nna,ogbenye echiche.

You people have a way of jumping into conclusion....

Who mentioned growing up in east

Where is deductive reasoning pls

billyG:
Do Drone has pilot?do u know d strenght of US,china,Russian Army even if they scale down,do u know d Boost a large army gives to d economy of those kun3,military personnel are heavy spenders,sellers,contractors,manufacturers of APC,guns,warplanes,warships,bombs,beers,wines,grocery,sports equipments benefits,miltary has schools,hospitals which also employed teachers,medics,nurses,build Bridges,roads ther4 employ engineers,architects infact d military is a community inside a larger community,just reduce USA defence budget to 10% & See how US economy will crash.
stop this foolish thinking Scale down d Military & see Militants,Terrorists,fill in d Gap.

This is bunkum

The problem I have with Nigeria is lack of focus and priority

Why increase army
Why not increase education,infrastructure etc

1000 intelligent corps will defeat 200k army battalion

History proved it in
Sparta wars
Isreali Arab wars
Biafrans war



The key thing is intelligence, education

Quality is better than quantity


.oh bubu

Don't mind them, when they can't perform they look for who to blame.

Lol
Have you blamed Jonathan today ?
Have you blamed PDP today ?
Gave you blamed the igbo today ?

This is what us trending

Lol

creamylicious:
Nairaland is so dry nowadays, not too many people give replies anymore.... Where has everyone ported to?

They have systematically killed nairaland...oh technically speaking

But why are you people complaining ..your man bubu confirmed it and British airways endorsed it.

Get used to it

excellentmomma:
Oh the price of oil starting going down as soon as Bubu came? There must be something bad about his face then.

Bubu even said it ..that he doesn't know why any time he enters the oil falls


He must be a bad luck

I hope he has shares in slot, cause he is just building slots brand.

I also see him delivering to diamond bank staff , very nice

Has d banj turned to delivery man...I thought he was selling garri ?

BellaElla:
Wow, this is astounding. So u mean Igbo ladies like myself that married out of our tribes are bad with dirty histories. Simply incredulous!!!! Your logic is embarrassingly flawed. I wonder where u have been to or how you grew up, your thought process is shockingly backward. If you have mingled at all or worked with big organizations you would know that one great factor that influences choice of life partner is location. It would be foolish of one to pass up on good men or women around them simply because they are from different tribes or because they do not want to be termed wayward. God! I feel retarded even typing this. I have heard lots of ludicrous statements but clap for yourself, this one takes the cake.

No I am not generalist but I am talking from my own observation ....not that it is all but 90% of the ladies that lack decency or have ruptured history go for the external ....ok lets take for instance an igbo lady that has two kids from different men yet not married ..tell me which igbo man will marry such ?

But I strictly tend to follow the injunction of bible

Marry your types ...mind you that's me
Oh I am even married
So follow your heart


Thanks

gentleheart1:
Hello Tonyechristoper, I had to create this new moniker because the mods are always blocking the other one. The mods has corrupted my mind.

Why should you allow mod to corrupt your mind ....pls don't allow that . ALWAYS STAY ON THE SIDE OF TRUTH

gentleheart1:
Shush don't be a fool, you are very daft.
Now let this sink into your head slowpoke,you smellos where under the bini kingdom not like I care but you people are very stupid for twisting history and comparing your politically installed Obas to the great Oba of Benin.

Fyi I am not igbo dimwit.

Igbo are their nemesis


They get fidgeted


He called u igbo

I am laughing

Brilliance9000:
When I tell people yoruba are responsible for the destruction of Nigeria, they think I 'm being hyperbolic. This fellow just confirmed it. Yoruba are bastardly tribalistic..it runs deep in their blood and DNA.

They blame igbo for everything that befall them

MayorofLagos:
Nigeria is going through a rebirth. In the process treading carefully to avoid pitfalls of past mistakes and making cautious forward progress in new area of unknowns.

One of our past errors is giving position of authority and leadership to Ibos. Time after time it has been proven, through historical and performance records, that Ibo lacks self-reflection, self guidance and respect for legacy when given public trust. This laxity is cultural and does not discriminate on the social status of a candidate, so that a highly acclaimed individual in a professional or academic field is as much a carrier of this malady in his consciousness as is the truck pusher in Idunmota or the porter in Apapa Harbour.

In government appointments it can therefore be expected that a position of authority will come to ruin under leadership of Ibo. We cannot totally exclude them from governance, but it is imperative that they are tutored on how to lead and exercise power and authority. For that reason Ibo in government appointment, particularly one in which importance is attached to ego and drive, should be put under supervision of a superior intelligence in administrative and leadership qualities, like a Yoruba or Hausa, so that the even handed guide can act as voice of wisdom and reasoning to correct his subordinate Ibo on how to self preserve and succeed.


Mod, you can go ahead and ban me now. I violated rule#2.

Your stupidity is pristine .....you talk like a deranged person . Did igbo traumatise you

Blame igbo
Blame Jonathan
Blame PDP

But don't blame your confused president and his rag tag team

freshvine:
I see a disconnect Here!

All the igbo ladies commenting here are married to Yoruba men and they're proud of their marriage but not a single igbo man here relating to marrying a yoruba lady.

What's the problem?

Th ratio of igbo men that married outside is very low even if they will marry they marry from near by tribes like cross rivers and Delta

An average well brought up igbo lady wants to marry an igbo man and will marry one but when the bad ones with dirty history doesn't see husband they end up as available becoming desirable


Look at tonto

Even God told the Israelites to marry within their tribes

So what are we arguing here

You see what it means ..how can a mother be in cocaine business

This is shameful... For those calling igbo or Yoruba ..crime is a universal thing so emancipate your mind
