While acting as private citizen, they were able to mobilize men to make financial contributions enough for the procurement of ammunitions; arming naive Igbo youths to attack fellow tribesman but cannot use the same approach to gather money to renovate schools, build public libraries, create youth empowerment programs. e.t.c. Winners show result, losers give excuses. Dragonsword: |

I heard you said: "Leave Nnamdi Kanu and Ekpa to destroy our land, murder our people in cold blooded and sabotage our economy so that in the next few year (while other regions are progressing, counting their blessings, becoming prosperous,) we can start shouting of victimization and marginalization." Is that what you said? Anyway, why can't you seize this opportunity to add 1million naira to your bank account by just answering the challenge? edited: and before I forget, the word "ronu" is a positive word. It means "to reflect", to look inward and think deeply and carefully, especially about possibilities and opinions. This thread is a call for your like to ronu and restrategize. One definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. House Arrest and Murder of lovely and good Igbo people has not been effective, instead, why can't you (IPOB) try and go to Abuja (if you're not group of cowards) and get Nnamdi Kanu released, just like the other terrorist group did? Dubetex96: |
They destroy the properties of same people they claim they love. Isn't that wisdom? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LLR7TjGvXI |
Boko Haram another terrorist group just like IPOB went to Kuje prison and free their members. These cowards instead of acting likewise and travel to Abuja and get Nnamdi Kanu released, they decide to kill their tribesmen and give them "House Arrest" every Monday! How is the release of Nnamdi Kanu related to the killing of your tribesmen and destruction of their properties if not for cowardice. Are your tribesmen the ones keeping Kanu? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asun7JI_Mm8 |
Dear Simon Ekpa supporter, don't just run away (with your tail between your legs) from this thread. Prove your loyalty and win this challenge now. It is an easy one. Tip: Just do a google search or search any newspapers website to get inspirations for your answer. |
Some people are going to become richer today just but providing answer to the simple question asked. Christmas is going to be a little bit merrier for all the winners of this challenge. |
Why can't you just win your 1million naira peacefully without all these diatribes? SMH Obaofpigs: |
Make your Christmas a little bit merrier by becoming one of 30 winners of this challenge. Provide an answer with appropriate pictures and win 1 million Naira today! Challenge: Tell me 5 positive contributions of either of Nnamdi Kanu and or Simon Ekpa to the growth, development and prosperity of Southeast and the good Igbo people of the Southeast Nigeria. By contributions, I mean how they have shown their love to the good Igbo people of the Southeast Nigeria by building Hospitals, Schools, Public libraries, youth empowerment programs, enabling business environment, attracting investors e.t.c Tips: Just do a google search or search any newspapers website to get inspirations for your answer. You can also ask chatGPT too, but don't forget to use appropriate pictures and references to support your answers. What I'm sure of about Kanu and Ekpa is that: - They put the Good Igbo people on "House Arrest" every Monday, preventing them (using terror) from going out to find their daily bread peacefully, - Both Kanu and Ekpa went hiding in other countries (fearful for their own life), but send naive Igbo youths to journey of no return by arming them, - They through their terror activities inhibits the development of Southeast region by discouraging investors, - They order the murder of and denigrate their fellow Igbos, (tagging them "sabo" ), - They did not provide new jobs for Igbos who are in the Nigeria civil and military services, but want them to quit their jobs and start begging, - They order the destruction of properties of Igbo men and women, - They keep scamming the people, asking for financial contributions without giving accountability about what they use the money for. - They created dislike against the good Igbo people by cursing and insulting every other Nigeria tribe and ethnic group. - They both exhibit a high degree of psychosis and can be given proper medical treatment in any clinic or hospital (I'll recommend UCH Ibadan). Provide your account number along with your answer and get your bank account credited instantly! |

Rustic Yoruba Language is our only means of communication in my family. I once wrote this: Yoruba Race: You are being manipulated if you do any these 11 One thing about manipulation is that the person being manipulated will think everything is Ok and that he or she is doing the right thing. Here are 11 signs to know whether you are being manipulated as a Yoruba human. #1. You revoke your Yoruba name because it has one of the Orishas in it: Whether it’s your pastor that convinced you by giving you some spiritual excuses or its because you want to travel out of Nigeria, one way or the other you are been manipulated. #2. You see Yoruba religion as idolatry: all the world religion is idolatry, including all the Abrahamic religion: Christianity, Islam, name it. For a religion to be idolatry, there must be (a). items of worship or of reference to deity like pictures or statutes e.g. the cross, Kaaba of the Bedouin tribes; (b). religion rituals such as the killing of rams, Holy communion; and then (c). Human-God reference or representative and or messenger. #3. You totally believe the slave trade narration as better explanation for the appearance of the Yoruba race all over the world: This is a lie that we are been told again and again. Yoruba are believed to be part of the pre-Columbia American. #4. You derogatory call the Yoruba language “vernacular” and shun children and young adult from speaking it: The word "vernacular" in itself is not a negative word as it is simply can mean "indigenous language of a people". If a people are prevented from speaking their language, then who will? #5. You do not have many Yoruba traditional wears: If you think that putting on of Yoruba cloth will make you look less "corporate", and you don't really care about acquiring Yoruba traditional outfit, you may need to have a rethink about your heritage and start taking deliberate effort about this. #6. You prefer foreign music to Yoruba: non Yoruba music are all good, in fact you can get spiritual and entertained through music, but manipulation set in when you start making illogical preference to non-Yoruba music and think music about Yoruba Orisha, culture and tradition are bad. #7. You cannot recite some of the Yoruba poems and rhymes: Poems and rhymes are part of your cultural identity. The poems were created to teach morals and inculcate the Omoluabi character. If you defaulted here, then now is the time not to only start learning but to also teach your children. Teachers in schools should also encourage teaching and memorising of these. Have you seen the beauty of: Toju Iwa, Ise loogun ise, Kini n o fole se laye ti mo wa... #8. You do not have a Yoruba name or you hate being called by your Yoruba name. #9. You name your children many non-Yoruba name and prefer to call them by their non-Yoruba names: This is also a sign of been manipulated. #10. Your children cannot speak Yoruba: They speak other language fluently but you frowning at them whenever they speak Yoruba is inferiority complex and a sign of been manipulated. This is not even in the Yoruba gene. 'A complete child' should be taught to speak not only foreign language fluently but also Yoruba. #11. You think that explaining of concepts with Yoruba in schools is bad: how better will a student understand than when tough concepts are explained using the student's native language. |

I once wrote this: Yoruba Race: You are being manipulated if you do these 11 One thing about manipulation is that the person being manipulated will think everything is Ok and that he or she is doing the right thing. Here are 11 signs to know whether you are being manipulated as a Yoruba human. #1. You revoke your Yoruba name because it has one of the Orishas in it: Whether it’s your pastor that convinced you by giving you some spiritual excuses or its because you want to travel out of Nigeria, one way or the other you are been manipulated. #2. You see Yoruba religion as idolatry: all the world religion is idolatry, including all the Abrahamic religion: Christianity, Islam, name it. For a religion to be idolatry, there must be (a). items of worship or of reference to deity like pictures or statutes e.g. the cross, Kaaba of the Bedouin tribes; (b). religion rituals such as the killing of rams, Holy communion; and then (c).

That is hypocrisy. In other news, read about the: Greedy Nature And Covetousness For Lagos State VERY INTERESTING READ Which Lagos? Is it Lagos as a state or Lagos as a City? First it was "all land in Lagos belongs to us, we own all the houses and the real estate"; Then "we developed all of Lagos"; then "Lagos is a no man's land"; then "Lagos is not part of Southwest"; Then "Lagos is not a Yoruba land"; Then "Benins are owners of Lagos"; Then "you're not a True indigen of Lagos"; Then "Lagos culture is not the same as the Yoruba Culture"; Then "Lagos is indigenous land of Lagos natives not Yoruba"; Then "Aworis are not Yoruba"; Then "Lagos is a former federal capital so it is not a Yoruba Land"; Then "Lagos is a formal British colony so it belongs to the British"; To them, Lagos belongs to any other tag or people, but not the Yorubas. (like fetching API data in reactjs) The Major Problems are: ==> 1. Covetousness: a. Having or showing a great desire to possess something belonging to someone else. b. A painful awareness of another's possessions or advantages and a desire to have them too. Synonyms: jealousy, hatred, resentment, envy, enviousness, invidiousness, malice, enmity, animosity, green-eyed monster, ill will, spitefulness, maliciousness. ==> 2. Greed (or avarice): a. Is an insatiable desire for material gain (be it food, money, land, or animate/inanimate possessions) or social value, such as status, or power. ==> 3. Mass Megalomania or Grandiose Delusion: a. The delusional belief that one is important, powerful, or famous, as a form or symptom of mental disorder. b. Megalomania is a mental disorder characterized by an excessive desire for power and glory and by illusory feelings of omnipotence. It is commonly understood as a psychological condition in which there is an obsession or delusion of grandeur. c. Delusion of grandeur is the false belief that one is important or powerful, accompanying certain mental disorders. It is also known as paranoid grandiosity. Delusion of grandiose has a subtype called: "narcissistic personality disorder". SYMPTOMS OF: Narcissistic Personality Disorder Symptoms may vary from person to person. The most common symptoms include: 1. Being overly boastful, exaggerating one’s own achievements 2. Pretending to be superior to others 3. Lack of empathy for others 4. Looking down on others as inferior 5. Monopolising conversations 6. Impatient, angry, unhappy, depressed or has mood swings when criticized 7. Easily disappointed when expected importance is not given 8. Always craves for “the best” in everything 9. Has a very fragile self-esteem They: 10. Have an unreasonably high sense of self-importance and require constant, excessive admiration. 11. Feel that they deserve privileges and special treatment. 12. Expect to be recognized as superior even without achievements. 13. Make achievements and talents seem bigger than they are. 14. Be preoccupied with fantasies about success, power, brilliance, beauty or the perfect mate. 15. Believe they are superior to others and can only spend time with or be understood by equally special people. 16. Be critical of and look down on people they feel are not important. 17. Expect special favors and expect other people to do what they want without questioning them. 18. Take advantage of others to get what they want. 19.

Behave in an arrogant way, brag a lot and come across as conceited. 22. Insist on having the best of everything — for instance, the best car or office. At the same time, people with narcissistic personality disorder have trouble handling anything they view as criticism. They can: 1. Become impatient or angry when they don't receive special recognition or treatment. 2. Have major problems interacting with others and easily feel slighted. 3. React with rage or contempt and try to belittle other people to make themselves appear superior. 4. Have difficulty managing their emotions and behavior. 5.

Feel depressed and moody because they fall short of perfection. 8. Have secret feelings of insecurity, shame, humiliation and fear of being exposed as a failure. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/narcissistic-personality-disorder/symptoms-causes/syc-20366662 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_gKkrS42lU Researcher from all over the world should come to Nigeria and help conduct thorough study on this group of people and help us understand as to why their Grandiose delusion is on a massive scale. |
