Lol.....
When Ekpa is arrested and extradited to Nigeria like Nnamdi Kanu, it is scallywags like you that will start begging for his amnesty when he is arraigned before a court of competent jurisdiction and faces his comeuppance.......It is only a matter of time... .

Who have such power in Nigeria? don't tell me Tinubu the drug criminal in Chicago

Kukutente23:
You're just one person. Except you have the powers, you can't make the change you want. Calling me unity beggar might make you feel better and raise your shoulder in empty feeling of superior individualism but fact remains you are not in a position to do anything about it and the critical stakeholders from the East don't share your sentiments.

No senator from the East has ever raised the question of our nationhood not when the East had the Senate presidency for 8 years, or the deputy Senate presidency for 8 years, or the deputy speakership now. So if you're looking for unity beggars, look no further than your political leaders!!

This is one very unintelligent post, you mean your selected critical stakeholders? 90% of Igbos are no longer interested in your good for nothing country, if you still doubt then travel to Igbo land and make such comment let me see something, anyway you can continue to live in denial and delusion.

BlakKluKluxKlan:
An old, useless fool for nothing who lacked foresight.

His Ignorant and stupid stand led to the death of millions of people.

You must be mistaking him for Awolowo who killed himself with Rat Poison called Otapiapia and don't forget he's greater than your entire region and ancestors both live and dead's

BlakKluKluxKlan:
Zik himself admitted he opposed it and also raced his objection the day and here you are, trying to twist the narrative.

Why are you children of hate always mischievous ?

Gibberish Staled propaganda, lover of one Nigeria look at what you have done to the Country, arguing with most of you guys is waste of time, why do you guys find it difficult to have your own country without the Igbos?

Kukutente23:
Who wants to correct it? Who is interested in doing that? What is the name of the person?
You have dumped blaming Awo and now fishing for new excuses abi

Do you mean we must continue with the failed marriage? anyway I'm not the kind of person who dwell in the past, unity beggar i hate being called a Nigerian, hope you get me now,

Kukutente23:
Of course Awo was a sectionalist and he had no pretensions about it. He believed each tribe had a right to determine how they want to be in the nigerian context. He never claimed any utopian Nigerian nationalist. He was for his tribe and the progress of his tribe. Same with Bello. It was Azikiwe that was forming nationalist yet he went and aligned with the biggest ethno-religious bigots in Nigeria then. Bello preferred to be northern premier than Nigerian PM. That's the person Azikiwe chose over Awo yet you think it is Awo that's the problem.
You're deluded!!

Are you even making sense? why can't we correct that mistake now after 60 years of failed marriage?

DMerciful:
You're running away from his argument. What is holding 220 million people today if the country is not working?

You will never get that answer from those Unity beggar, their only strategy is to bring back the past, they will never accept to divide Nigeria

WhizdomXX:
You are right but Biafra is non-achievable.

Why?

Kukutente23:
What opportunity did Awo have to secede? Besides, Awo never said he wanted secession.
His stand has always been that the North is the main problem and needs to be tamed. Him and Ahmadu Bello never saw eye to eye.
Awo would never enter into any agreement with the north. In fact, he was actively working to liberate the Northern minorities from the core north, something that if achieved would have made Nigeria more balanced. The question is why Azikiwe refused to see all that fact. Balewa already said in 1954 that the south is the biggest threat to the north. He talked about how the north should be wary of the south and ensure they don't have a upper hand. So how could Zik have entered an alliance with the north and later turn around to support secession? It sounds so stupid if you ask me

Who will believe this trash? Awo is nothing but bags of bigotry

TimeManager:
Yes, far bigger in foolishness and shortsightedness, that's why his descedants are still crying "give us biafra" in 2024.

-Kiss the truth!

I'm glad you acknowledged that he's greater than your ancestors both alive and deads

-Kiss the truth!

TimeManager:
Lol.. Kanu the greatest biafran fraud ever liveth, can you hear your wife moaning from kuje?

-Kiss the truth!

You are in severe pains, he's greater than anybody from your region both living and death ones


-Kiss the truth!

AlexBells:
Heya kpele by Nigerian constitution, kanu has freedom of association, he’s greater than all your ancestors put together

You are right, including that foolish Awolowo the RATAK Master, they can't imagine their lives without one Nigeria, I've stopped taking that tribe seriously

TimeManager:
No, it didn't stand, it fell and that's why Nnamdi Kanu is the 3rd elected President of the federal republic of biafra.

-Kiss the truth!

Unity beggar, you can't stay in one Nigeria without the Igbos

-Kiss the truth!

TimeManager:
Today is the consequences of yesterday's decisions. It would be extremely difficult today to introduce such a clause ever again, that opportunity is gone. Zik was the leader of eastern region and NCNC, with selected representatives from his party, they were loud and clear that ibos were opposed to a secession clause and any other person advocating it should be charged for treason. Zik and his caucus were speaking for the ibos.

-Kiss the truth!

Only a unity beggar will make this kind of comment, spit

TimeManager:
You can never absolve Zik, he was the leader of NCNC and Eastern region. The british had nothing to do with it, it was entirely Zik's self aggrandizement.

-Kiss the truth!

Can you stop fouling this thread with your demented ignorance!!

gidgiddy:
You are talking about 70 years ago, I am talking about today. Whatever Zik wanted or did not want 70 years ago is not half as important as what millions of people want today

Sense no go kill you

How long are we going to continue with this useless blame games, we should be talking about how to divide this country, let everybody go their way, i hate being called a Nigerian

helinues:
Toh

Get a job and be useful to your aged parents and yourself, i don't know why you find 30K as a big money

Whataboutism is a rhetorical technique or logical fallacy that involves deflecting criticism or difficult questions by responding with a counter-accusation or a different issue altogether. It often seeks to discredit an opponent's position by charging them with hypocrisy without directly addressing the initial argument.


Characteristics of Whataboutism

Deflection: Instead of addressing the issue at hand, the person redirects the conversation to a different issue.

Counter-Accusation: It often involves pointing out flaws or faults in the critic or their group to undermine their argument.

Avoidance: It avoids direct engagement with the original criticism or question.

Examples of Whataboutism

Political Debate:

Criticism: "Your policy is harming the environment."
Response: "What about your party's policy on healthcare that left many uninsured?"
International Relations:

Criticism: "Country A is violating human rights."
Response: "What about Country B? They have a terrible human rights record too."
Personal Arguments:

Criticism: "You didn't complete your part of the project."
Response: "What about you? You were late last time."


Why Whataboutism is Problematic

Evasion: It prevents constructive dialogue and resolution by shifting the focus away from the issue at hand.

False Equivalence: It often creates a false equivalence between the original issue and the counter-issue, implying they are equally problematic without proper justification.

Undermines Accountability: It can be used to deflect responsibility and avoid addressing valid criticisms.


How to Handle Whataboutism

1. Redirect to the Original Issue: Acknowledge the counter-issue briefly but steer the conversation back to the original point.

e.g "That may be a concern, but let's focus on addressing the current issue."

2. Separate Issues: Clarify that each issue should be addressed on its own merits.

e.g "Both issues are important and deserve attention, but let's resolve this matter first."

3. Demand Accountability: Insist on addressing the original criticism directly.

e.g "Before we move on to other topics, can we discuss how to fix this specific problem?"

By recognizing and appropriately responding to whataboutism, constructive discussions can be maintained and accountability can be enforced.

confusionist stop making joke of yourself and accept that you can't live without the great Igbos in your one Nigeria

garykoeman:
Ogbeni

Don't say what u don't know.

Igbos are cowards.

You are actually right that’s why the Igbo lost Ilorin to Fulanis who install Emir of Kwara State 🤣😄

yarimo:
but you can fold your hands looking at peter obi encouraging drunkness as achievements abi

Tinubu is a Drug criminal and certificate forgery master and deserve firing squad

ElSudani:
This story was distorted by sore losers to embarrass the government.
They were trying to push the narrative that there was no talk of any investment by Maersk, that the story of $600 million dollars was made up.
What a sad set of people.

Keep lying to yourself because we expected it but we already know the truth, stop wasting your precious time 😉

Look at the kind of useless idiota running affairs of this country, how can any sane person expect Nigeria to develope, this kind man should be a gatekeeper and nothing else,

helinues:
Oh, poor them, why do they like to start something they can't see to the end.

They always like to drag their principal unnecessary by attacking others for no sensible reason.

The kind of brain resetting bashing Peter Obi has been receiving with his reckless statements lately and the troublesome of his supporters, heh no be here oo

As una no dey build shishi, allow the visionary ones to do what they know best without turning unaself to enemies of progress and development

May God never bless us with a lazy and omo ofo🙏🏽🤣

AuschwitzPrefec:
Someone that blindly worships the same people who profited immensely from the slave trade of Africans to which your people formed the bulk and who continue to enslave nations through their international ursury racket is nothing but a fool.

Hitler did nothing wrong.

You are already mentally deranged and all you need to do is hit Onitsha under bridge and the rest will be history 🤣

Bone147:
Dey are jokers

Both of you can continue to live in denial and delusion but Hamas terrorist must be dealt with and nothing will stop it, kiss the truth

Emu4life:
We used to hear words like "If Iran fires a fly into Israel, Tehran will be leveled in Minutes "

What a delusion!!! Una think say na Palestinian Orphans

This is just like US/NATO invading Iraq and Libya citing "Weapons of Mass Destruction ". Meanwhile, China, Russia, North Korea and even Pakistan have been flaunting their "Weapons of Mass Destruction ", yet nothing happened.

Brotherman, e don tey wey nyash dey back. Abi u no know say shoe get size??

Enough of your stupidity and stop deviating from the topic coward, this thread is about Israel and Hamas not Iran,

Tinubu is a big failure and nothing good will ever come out of him

What do you expect from illiterate who made his money from Drugs pushing and Education by forging all sorts of fake certificates, this can only happen in Nigeria

Mervingreat:
You that have capacity pls biko kindly tell us your achievements when you are the governor of your state?

Everybody just ant to talk, imagine Suswan of all people too talking.

Anyway, it's too late for rubbish talks, Nigeria is progressing and we are getting there.

May your life progress like Nigeria, kindly say Amen!
