Chuksgeo: The yo-rubbers are the most cowarded tribe in this entity called nigeria, well that is a topic for another day. obafemi awo or awolowo is a nazist following his infamous 'STARVATION POLICY', and how can a tribe that have never fought a war tell war stories more than others who have? This is to show that the yo-rubbers are cowardly parrots just like the saying 'after the mens wrestling women discuss the match' this is just what the yorubas are doing, ' it is also said that if you are not when the dead is buried and you are asked to dig the corpse you will definitely start from the leg' this is typical of this ofe mmanued yo-rubbers, COWARDS! IGBO KWENU!

Pls forgive all these Ofemanus let them "go and sin again", like they always do. WOMEN, Ha!

cashcpt: Shut up dat your dirty Ibo mouth! Who are u to create rules of engagement in war? Who cares if markets are bombed? Dat is war kill everybody on the enemy side no mercy no bullshit, well I am of the generation of Yorubas that doesn't want any useless forgiveness from Ibos, let them go to blazes - they can only accuse the nicer and more accomodating Yorubas while living in dread of the HausaFulani. Foolish myopic race, u keep going this way and we wld take it up with the millions of Ibos living in our territory.

I laugh at ur senseless post . U of all people should know better, that u are no match for even a 10yr old igbo boy, let alone many. Pls dont sign ur death warrant on our account. Look for some other people to finish u.

Yinka1808: Igbos and their mouth again, empty barrel, dont forget oooo that pride goes before destruction....
Be warned.

olaheavy: I have said it so many times - the Igbos are fvcking ungrateful cannibals. We have been helping them for fvcking so long in Yorubaland. Their forefathr, Zik, was taken in, chapperoned and trained by a Yoruba, Herbert Macaulay. Zik cut his political teeth in Yorubaland: Ojukwu lived and grew up in Yorubaland. So many Igbos that ever became anything in life either moved Yorubaland or were born and raised in our lands. Even today, there are more Igbo human eaters scattered across the Yorubaland than their Igbo homeland. This lame and bitter fool, Achebe, who writes for little children, also schooled in Ibadan and worked and lived in Lagos before he could become somebody in life. I tell you ccannibals: keep on buying properties and building mansions in Yorubaland, you will come to know. And when we pounce on you, a la Boko Haram, there'll be no Awolowo to rescue you this time around. Bastard, cannibalistic Igbo mother and father fvckers!

Prof Corruption: Why Do Igbos Always Go Looking For Trouble?
Written by Ozodi Osuji Ph.D




Why Do Igbos Always Go Looking For Trouble?

There is something in the psychological makeup of Igbos that makes them always go looking for trouble. In the calmest of circumstances they will always do something that would annoy those around them, create conflict and then live in conflict; they seem to enjoy living in conflicts.

As it were, they seem to have death wish and do things that would make those around them to attack them, and or kill them hence gratify their death wish (thanatos).

Consider their relationship with their neighbors. Invariably they would say or do something that even a child knows would irritate those neighbors and do it as if they do not know that such actions irritate people. Consider Obi Nwankanma’s concocted historiography. The man is apparently writing a history of Igbos (as gleaned from the snippets of it that he posts on the Internet). Invariably, he would make claims to the effect that Igbos stimulated what their neighbors did or he would make Igbos have credit for what other Nigerian tribes did. And he would make these self-serving bogus claims as if they are true. He is, of course, lying but presents his lies as if they are substantiated truths! The man writes history as propaganda!

Taking credit for what other tribes did diminish those tribes self-respect; they feel attacked and angry at him and by generalization at all Igbos. Thus, the man’s private behavior has negative public consequences for most Igbos, for other Nigerians who feel insulted by him (in a country where folks indulge in stereotyping behaviors, by all Igbos) attack any Igbo in sight.

And this misguided man is not the only one doing what he does; many Igbos do it. Consider their unreasoning response to Frederick Lugard and his British cohorts. Britons created what is now called Nigeria in 1914. Igbos who hitherto did not have a nation were for the first time placed under one administrative unit hence given a sense of being one people. But instead of being grateful to Lugard for hastening their sense of oneness some foolish Igbos call Nigeria Lugard’s cage; that is to say that they feel caged in a place they would rather not be in.

They flock to other parts of that Lugard’s cage to seek employment! The Yorubas allowed them to come to Lagos, a Yoruba city. Now many of them live at Lagos. Instead of expressing gratitude to their Yoruba hosts some of them now claim that Lagos is an Igbo city! Imagine that cheek!

Yorubas could feel insulted by squatters claiming ownership of their land and attack and kill a few of them and the rest of them would carry their loads on their sorry heads and march to the East. They would not even have the courage to stand and fight to death. When the going gets tough they always run to their tribal enclave.

These people routinely insult Hausas and Hausas, not being as patient as Yorubas are, often pick up their machetes and start slashing at any Igbo in sight.

These people literally ask other people to attack them and when attacked they turn around and see themselves as victims. Alas, the rest of the world does not come to their rescue!

The white man could care less if Africans murdered other Africans, if in doubt see the Sudan, Somalia and East Congo where Africans, as we speak, are butchering each other and the International community give them all the opportunity they need to get rid of themselves from the face of this earth (and leave the damn continent for animals so that white men come on wild life safaris in it).

If other Nigerians start murdering Igbos no African Union or United Nations would come to their rescue and even if they did they would send African soldiers, who are likely to be Muslims and hence participate in killing Igbos some more!

These people are not aware of the real world they live in and talk as if they are invulnerable supermen when in fact they are the most vulnerable group of Nigerians (other Nigerians hate their arrogance and could easily gang up on them and do away with them).

So why do Igbos do these crazy things when they could have peaceful relationship with their neighbors? Why do they go looking for trouble (as Fela Kuti said, trouble de sleep” iyanga” de look for am)?

Fela recognized that pride (iyanga)causes interpersonal troubles; Igbos are” inordinately proud” [/b]and out of their pride insult other folks and those folks also being “normally proud” human beings (all human beings feel proud, in degrees; the neurotic, aka narcissistic and or paranoid personality feels inordinately proud)feel degraded and attack them.

Fela was an insightful musician, not trained psychologist. There is a more psychological process at work in these people’s apparent irrational behavior. They do what they do because of their inordinate sense of inferiority.

Feeling totally inferior and wanting to seem fictionally superior to other persons they make claims that would seem to make them seem superior to other people. Those absurd claims naturally make those they belittle angry, and those attack them.

INFERIORITY FEELING

I am saying that Igbos go looking for trouble because of their sense of inferiority and paranoid level of compensatory superiority (according to Alfred Adler, all human beings feel inferior and compensate with some superiority feeling and quest for power over their world, but the neurotic over does it).

DEATH WISH (OR FREUD’S THANATOS)

It is as if these people have a death wish and must attack other people so as to generate other people’s counter attacks on them, and when attacked they feel persecuted hence feel alive. The pathological ego feels alive when persecuted!

The paranoid person feels alive when he feels attacked and is defensive; if not feeling attacked and persecuted and defensive he does not feel like he is alive!

The paranoid person has not yet learned that a person can feel even more alive by loving himself and those around him. If you want to truly feel alive do what loves other people and what serves people’s interests.

The alternative to Christian agape love for all people is the paranoid attacks on people that generate counter attack for him and he gets attacked and in defending his self feels falsely alive.

For the longest time I could not quite understand this oddity in many Igbos behavior. Finally, I understood it. They engage in their apparent self-defeating behaviors because of mental disorder. They suffer mass delusion disorder (follies adieu, aka group paranoia).

The deluded person takes his private interpretation of reality as reality. He wants to seem superior and powerful, which he is not; he imagines that he is superior and powerful; believes what is not true as true hence is deluded.

The mentally ill person is not operating in the real world; he is living in his personal world, his fantasy world where he is all powerful and invincible.

The sadist part of it all is that even if you understand the dynamics of what is going on in the deluded person’s head and tell him about it he does not get it and continues doing what he does that gives him certain results and continues to get the same results while expecting different results.

[b]Igbos insult other people, make them angry; they get attacked and or killed. They do not want to be attacked and killed; that is, they want different results but they keep doing what generates the old results and get it. This is the definition of mental disorder: doing the same thing while expecting different results. An alcoholic keeps drinking but does not expect to damage his liver and health; poor soul; as long as he is addicted to his drug of choice he must be slowly damaging his liver, brains and killing himself even though he wishes to be healthy and live.

I know that these people are not going to change for part of mental disorder is not to see what is obvious to the normal person. The normal person, as if instinctively, recognizes that if you insult folks that they would be angry at you and that some of them would attack you, but these bizarre folks keep attacking others (by insulting them) and not expecting them to counter attack them in self-defense.

They do not know what they are doing and one is wasting one’s time trying to get them to recognize the obvious.

I suppose this is my mission: to keep stating the obvious until those who wear blinders finally remove their veil and see it; remove the mask over their eyes and see reality as it is. I will never give up on them after all they are my people, and attacks on them, even if self-brought, are attack on me (when folks begin attacking or killing Igbos they will attack or kill me, too). The sins of fathers are visited on their children’s heads. Therefore, I must keep trying to help them smell the coffee and roses.

A FINAL WORD ON OBI NWANKAMA’S PRETENSIONS

Obi Nwankanma, apparently, is writing history, make belief history of Igbos. He has been talking smack about Nri as core Igbos (obviously a self-serving claim). His idiotic talk is irritating me. One of these days I would unleash my fury at him. I generally allow annoying things to simmer for a while and when I become sufficiently angry I unleash a ferocious attack and will keep attacking and nothing would stop me. By and by I will take Obi Nwakanma up and attack to destroy his pretensions.

These clowns write 419 histories that make their people the head of Igbos while ignoring the obvious, that the core of Alaigbo is Owerri. When I have some time I will do rigorous research on Igbo history and then refute their make believe history (I just read Elizabeth Isichie‘s version of Igbo history; she is not pretentious and haughty; she honestly believed what she wrote; she is a scholar, not a propagandist pretending to be a scholar).

For now let me just say that it is irritating to one to see those who are not even fully Igbos to keep talking as if they are real Igbos and worse present themselves as the leaders of Igbos (they were influenced by surrounding non-Igbo folks; the real Igbos are in core Igbo land, in the Igbo heartland, Owerri/Orlu axis. (Owerri must eventually become the capital of one unified Alaigbo state in Nigeria or Alaigbo republic should Nigeria breakup).

The time allotted to foreigners, such as Onicha/Edo folk, rule over Igbos is over.

Most history books are written as songs of praises to the people they are written about hence are hardly objective. That been said, if one is writing a history of one’s entire people one ought to make an honest attempt to be fairly objective rather than write claptrap that sings the praises of one section of the people. Just imagine it: everyone knows that Owerri is the core Igbo but clowns from non-Owerri area pretend to write Igbo history and not give central place to Owerri.

Even the much maligned white colonial folk recognized that Owerri is core Igbo hence made Owerri dialect the central Igbo dialect in their books on Igbo language. But buffoons from non-Owerri area write as if their peripheral areas are central to Igbo history and in their idiocy expect Owerri folks to accept their nonsense. Why, it is supposed to be Igbo history and every Igbo ought to accept it even if it is a bunch of lies.

When I am free to pay attention to history I will descend on these clowns like a ton of hot coal. Their contrived, 419 scam history of Igbos cannot be allowed to stand

740megawatts: BY OLASUNKANMI AKONI

MOTORISTS along Ikoyi, Lekki-Epe axis will soon heave a sigh of relief as the first ever cable styled bridge of its kind in the sub Saharan West Africa region – Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge, has reached 95 percent stage of completion.

The link bridge project is sponsored by Governor Babatunde Fashola administration in Lagos State and being constructed by the construction giant, Julius Berger Plc.

he project was conceived in 2008, as solution to the perennial bottleneck on the Lekki- Epe road being serviced by only one access road.

Therefore, people of the highbrow choice area and the adjoining Victoria Island will soon witness a tremendous and pleasurable driving experience upon completion of the link bridge which will cause a relief from the daily traffic challenges the residents face trying to connect either Ikoyi or Lekki through Falomo Bridge, Alfred Rewane Road or Lekki-Epe Road.

Femi Hamzat, Lagos State commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, described it as historic, noting: “No doubt it is a testament to the sagacity of an administration determined to build tomorrow’s infrastructure today. It is the hallmark of a commitment to the welfare and socio-economic wellbeing of its people.”

When Vanguard Newspaper visited the site recently, it was gathered that the level of work had reached over 95 percent and according to Hamzat the target is to commission it before the end of this year, specifically first week in November.

The aesthetic bridge is a standard megacity compliant facility. It is to serve as a strategic bypass along the Falomo Bridge and Alfred Rewane, Independence Bridge and Ahmadu Bello Way.

Designed as dual carriageway, the bridge directly connects Lekki Phase I Estate with Alexander in Ikoyi. It is envisaged that on completion it would improve the living standard of the people and enhance social interaction, as it represents a significant content in the state’s tourism portfolio.

“The infrastructures provided must not only reflect present realities but also envisage future growth trends,” Hamzat stated, adding that it will also reduce travel time, save man-hour loss by motorists.

Moreover, the link bridge is expected to reduce the traffic on Lekki-Epe Toll Gates, as motorists who do not have any business along the axis would have the option of going through the link bridge, either from Ikoyi end to the other or Lekki end to the other, thereby, eliminating the present traffic rush being experienced on daily basis on Lekii Epe Expressway.

Technical details of the bridge obtained from the state Ministry Works and Infrastructure shows as follows: total length of bridge – 1.358km comprising of 722m approach and main bridge 466m; length of cable- 170m (suspended section). Eight of pylon: 87m from water level; navigational requirement clearance average of 9m above high water level.

Width is 16m across (8m on both sides); walkway – 4m across (2m on both sides); road works- Ikoyi end – 338. 7m while Lekki end is 311.5m.

OTHER LINK BRIDGES IN FOCUS

According to reliable sources, the state is planning another link bridge from Ojodu-Berger to Ikorodu to Isawo with a stop at Ikorodu. “But the construction will be tough, because the alignment is built up and the compensation will be high. So we are looking at various options,” the source said.

If Nigerian politicians saddled with the responsibility of leading their people, worked tirelessly and delivered projects like this, Nigeria and her masses would be the better for it. But instead its me, myself and, my family syndrome that's the order of the day amongst them.
Criminal minds were brought up in/ under criminal backgrounds. I bet Fashola has a great family background and is a wonderful family man. Don't ask me how i know, the result shows.

nnafather: I've taken my time to read most of the posts here:surely,we have great minds here...mature to the marrow. Though I don't cajol all the "diapers" of opinion here. I'm 32, getting married by April but still a virgin...courtesy of my self will...prayers,and engagement of my mind into so many positive things. Easy? NO! Though I jacked off in many occassions(I cried).God is faithful; He has seen me through.My still being a virgin is a personal covenant between me and God (when I was 16). I have to keep my part,and He has blessed me abundantly. The sexual energy has been coverted into heavy investment(talent discoveries) that will see me through(Financially) for the rest of my life.I'm blessed.

toba: welcome.

Mehn, no be only u o. I wish i were in Qatar too. That money for reach my hand no how. I don't need to be there to hammer much more than that dough.

ItsModella: Are you serious? What level playing field are you on about? This article clearly didn't talk about men who choose to have children outside their marital homes. A woman has a child outside her marital home and keeps her husband out of the loop and you call it level-playing field? Well, I beg to differ from your point of view. This is not a level-playing field rather it is just plain deceitful. Infidelity and deceit should not be justified in the name of "level-playing field"

pro01: Nothing new here. Only 'real men' would be surprised by these things. Nigerian women are the most deceitful in the world, not necessarily because of their promiscuity (after all, promiscuity is a general human phenomenon), but because of the PRETENCE and unbearable STEALTH with which they often mask and escape with their promiscuity. You'd see them parading themselves as paragons of virtue and goodness, looking for who to fool with their cosmetic 'morality'. Many fools fall for their scams, and rush off to the altar to confer their surnames on veteran wh.o.r.e.s - praising God for having found 'a good thing', lol.

I guess many guys allow themselves to get carried away by the veneer of hard-to-get, pseudo virtue that many Nigerian women expertly portray at first: "Oh, I can't have sex with you until we get married". . . "oh, what do you take me for, excuse me!", blah blah blah. Lol. Beneath this their yeye initial gragra lies a massive can of worms. On the average, they have slept with and are sleeping with a plethora of men for diverse selfish reasons. . .lecturers, bosses, 'big boy' moneybags, ex boyfriends, thugs, pastors, landlords, customers, clients, godfathers, connectors, sugar daddies, sugar sons, gateman, security men, NYSC camp commandants, and just about anybody that they can gain something important from, etc. etc. etc. Yet, they would deny even at gunpoint, if their cuckold boyfriends or husbands ever suspect/accuse them of merely hugging any of these men, let alone sleeping with them. This is the real problem with Nigerian females.

The deceit is truly shocking for those who are discerning enough to know. Their boldness in commiting these atrocities is made worse by the fact that too many 'mature' men trust them too easily these days based on false, self-deluding beliefs or assurances. As long as men continue to be 'mature' and 'real' enough to keep trusting Naija women and believing their fake 'goodness', then they would continue to raise other men's children as their own. Naija women generally behave better and are more faithful when they know that you don't trust them foolishly. . .and when they can't afford to incur your wrath. You always have to make sure they earn that trust; NEVER give it to them gratuitously.

Efemena_xy: Looks like the women in this report are fast learners AND beating the men at their own game. Lol!

Now I do wonder why the men scream foul?
