So Igbos are the one running all the HKs scattered all over Bini city and even villages like Okada and co?
Evans was just a regular kidnapper that was overhyped by Nigerian media.
James was not a criminal, he was working for the terrorist Nigerian police. He was simply following command.
Anenih remain number one most notorious Nigerian criminal and your Edo produced him.

I said you should read the names of the people Efcc are arresting.

Lol iPhone 6s has ios 14 you gots be joking

Igboid:
Same way we will rely on Enugu, Ebonyi and Abia to produce especially when we industrialize our agriculture.

You are sold substandard goods because you are mostly poor and cannot afford better quality ones, deal with it.

hahaha, you sell substandard goods and drugs in South Africa, Thailand, Malaysia etc that's why half your youths abroad are on death row. Criminality is in your dna

Lmaoooo what a load of tripe and bunkum.

I don't frequent or visit brothels to keep a statistical data sheet on which tribe dominate them, yet it's a known fact that Edo women are the bottom barrel thrash commodities in Nigeria, your women are internationally known as dick-hopping whOres my guy (let that sink in), so much so that they've created a whole colony of prostitutes in the streets of Europe especially Italy, and have now proliferated and spread their olosho escapades to places like Libya and Lebanon where sex workers from Edo now traffick young girls to... this are hard facts with solid evidence and not just mere conjectures.

Meanwhile there's a reason why elites from other tribes are married to Igbo women, go figure!

lmao, each region has its stereotype. People believe Igbos are cannibals because some abakaliki people eat humans, people call Igbos money lovers, yorubas dirty etc it's stereotype. Countless number of times have it been discovered that most of those Nigerian women in Italy aren't even from Edo. Edo people don't even leave the state. Esan people mostly only marry in Esanland and live here, Benin women are in New Benin. Where do we get the numbers from to have that reputation in Europe? If you say some Benin women are pimps I'd agree with that. They help traffick those girls from other regions that'd be plausible.
Go to the North even as far as kebbi you'd still see an Igbo prostitute there. Talk to real people and stop watching rubbish propaganda

Igboid:
This is the lies you tell yourselves to feel good about your role in the war, but nothing could be farther than the truth.
Remember that you had already claimed that Ojukwu tried to impose Igbo rule on you, because an Anioma man( who most of you dubiously claim to be Bini people when it suits your agenda) was appointed Military administrator of the region that was renamed Beinn republic to show that it's neither part of NIGERIA not Biafra, as Midwest was NIGERIA named.
You were disappointed that Ojukwu didn't appoint an Edoid (Edo, Urhobo, Isoko, Itsekiri) as the administrator of the region, while conveniently forgetting that an Anioma son in Osadebey it was who was the legitimate leader of the region before he was ousted and replaced by Ejoor (an Edoid) by the military.
You welcomed Ejoor appointment, not minding the injustice it meant for Anioma people whose son was ousted, but you were quick to go up in arms shouting Igbo domination the minute Ojukwu replaced Ejoor with an Anioma son in Dr Okonkwo.? You wanted another Edoid leader, apparently, Anioma people are not Midwest enough for you. But never mind, you were neutral in your dreams.

This is why I don't care about those Igboids hating Igbos. Once Ndiigbo are gone with Biafra, they will get it hot from you Igbophobic minorities.

Bottom line my dear, no one tried to colonize Midwest region.
We tried to de-Nigerianize it, by giving it a neutral name that is not NIGERIA-linked, ie Benin republic. But apparently, the people preferred NIGERIA, hence squashing their claim at neutrality.

in all these ranting up here, here's the most important details you're delusionally forgetting, who the fucck is Ojukwu to appoint a leader for the Edos. You have zero idea how irritating and insulting what you typed up there is. Who the fucck is Ojukwu to decide our region? Your aniomas claim to have migrated from Benin we don't argue with anyone. If bendel were still in existence we wouldn't mind if a chuckwudi is elected governor. That doesn't mean Igbos across the Niger would have the audacity to dictate to us.

mancoconut:
The audacity of an Edo man to call Igbo women adulterous, when it's a general knowledge and almost a comic stereotype in Nigeria that your women are the poster children for international prostitution bar no competition, no be una women dey use do national geographic documentary on Al Jazeera and BBC for Nigerian prostitutes in Italy? To get to that level of notoriety and recognition it must really be BAD.

And the bride price system in Igboland isn't a business of selling of making a fortune over our women as you lame minds see it, there's a whole deeper meaning and connotation to it you slowpoke, there's a reason why men from other tribes still rush down to the East to marry Igbo women despite the exuberant bride price, when you know the value of a woman... money won't mean sh#t to you.

just like you said it's a stereotype. Go to any state in Nigeria, you will count 1000 Igbo prostitute before see a single Edo woman there.
Igbo women here leave their husbands' house and follow other men whereas it's a taboo here. You can't even sit behind a married woman here in a bike if you do she will have to do rituals before she can cook for husband. Tell me, have you seen prostitute from Edo in your place? Come let me take you to Central Hotel in Uromi or k19 in Ekpoma so that you can come and see your people

Igboid:
You have obviously been fed with too many Lagos-Ibadan propaganda.

The East is far from overpopulated. If we were, where are the herdsmen feeding their cows?

We have places like the ones attached all over Igbo villages.
We haven't even scratched the surface in Igboland.

Igboland is one hell of beautiful tropical rainforest.

I have observed your region. You will be unbelievably naive to believe that a region of 5 states smaller than delta and edo or Oyo will not battle overpopulation if 40 million people are are repatriated there. Won't you reproduce? Won't you farm? Lmao

Igboid:
There was no Edo state.
What we had was Midwest.
Ojukwu declared it Benin republic because It was part of NIGERIA and wasn't a neutral territory like you said. We had to make it neutral. Pending the end of the war, about time it was hoped that the Anioma Igbos would be absorbed into Biafra while the Minorities of Midwest would have been left to their own machinations.

There are many Edo sons in the Nigerian military that were wrecking havoc in Igboland.
And Midwest military leader Ejoor was in Aburi as part of Nigeria delegation and not neutral delegation.
So the talk of Midwest neutrality is and has always been bunkum. The war was Biafra vs NIGERIA. Edoland was part and parcel of NIGERIA, unless you can show me where Edo people declared independence from Lagos based Nigerian military Government!

Edo didn't have military protection because all Nigerian Military which included Edo people were already stationed in Northern parts of Biafra from Nsukka to Gakem.

Even Lagos was left with little Military presence which was why Biafrans sensed an opportunity to March to Lagos and sack Gowon and his boys from there.

Edo not having military presence had nothing to do with it's non existent neutrality. Edo was part and parcel of NIGERIA during the war and the war was Biafra vs NIGERIA. So how can you speak of Edo Neutrality when Edo never declared independence from Nigeria?

Are you listening to yourselves?

lol. The Midwest invasion was the reason Edo people joined the war including men in my village. They never joined the army prior to the invasion. The political class in the Midwest offered a neutral ground for negotiations between Nigeria and Biafra as we mostly considered the conflict as Igbos vs Hausas. Even to this day my mother still regard the federal troops that displaced the Biafran occupation as Hausas.

Nigerian army was barely existent prior to the war as Nigeria was hardly 7 years old. The soldiers we had were mostly trained in the UK. The men that were recruited to form the second division that defeated Biafra were recruited after the invasion.
Trying to colonise Edo was what swung the advantage in federal government favour.

ThickSharon123:
You said it yourself, you don't go to the east becuase you guys have a small population, the reason you made Niger-Delta to compensate your small population (not insulting, but it's blatantly clear)

And we don't have anything to do with Edo people or Esan, an Igbo woman and a few men wouldn't want to date or marry there, only a few do that for extreme love, you guys are more like Yoruba people. We like Yoruba, but the cultures aren't the same thing, and we have nothing in common.

Igbos are proud Jews and we love it that way. The culture of Igbos is forever on fleek.

So, rest love.

lol what would we want to do in a region where its indigenes are even running away from to our region in order to prosper?
Binis and Urhobos would be majority if Edo Decided to form its own nation. There is no shame in admitting other people are more in number than you.
Also we don't like your tradition as you normally sell your daughters and claim fortunes as bride price. And your women are very adulterous

Igboid:
I have and know many Esans in the East. One was even a classmate in the University and still currently in the East, married to an Igbo woman who was his girlfriend during his school days.
How is SE tiny compared to Esanland?
Which overpopulation and pollution?
You have obviously listened to too many Yoruba propaganda about the East.

yes south East is tiny and would battle overpopulation if all Igbos are repatriated back to the region. Unless you probably want to start dragging other people's regions as usual

Igboid:
Stop smoking whatever you were smoking.
Enahoro from Edo was with Gowon and. Awolowo during the war and were issuing starvation policy from Lagos.
Many people from Edo, Kogi, Ondo were members of the Nigerian ARMY that invaded the East from Gakem in present Cross River State.
Ejoor was among the Nigerian delegation in Aburi, and Oba Akenzua it was who advised Gowon to renege on Aburi accord.
So the whole talk of Minorities being neutral during the war is hogwash. Everyone picked a side. No one was neutral.

You are also talking nonsense. Before the war, an Igbo from Anioma, Asaba to be precise was the democratically elected premier of the mid-west region and he sat in Benin from where he reigned over the whole minorities of the Midwest, the Government house of Edo State in Benin City is still named after this illustrious son of Igboland from Asaba, he was called Dennis Osadebey, he was ousted during Nzeogwu coup like the rest of the other premiers all over the country.
When Biafra marched through Midwest on our way to Lagos, Ojukwu appointed Doctor Okonkwo, another Igbo from Asaba to take the place of Osadebey.
He wasn't imposing Igbo rule, he was resetting things as they were before Nzeogwu coup.

Stop speaking for Southerners, focus on your small Esan. Every ethnic group in the South would decide their own fate individually once Igbos secede as Biafra.
Stop the gum body, stand on your Esan and speak for them.

Thanks.

what the fucck is this one talking about? Ojukwu declared Edo state Republic of Benin, and tried to make it a colony of Biafra because we said we were not interested at all in the conflict and had no single security unit on standby. Edo people joined the army in late 1967 and early 1968 after the invasion of the Midwest.
Was this flag restoration of " status quo"?

ThickSharon123:
If you don't give a shit about Igbos, why do you open threads to criticize them or participate in criticizing them when they do talk about seccession matters? Check most of the threads and see which tribes or people begin the toxic discussions. Igbos hardly start a fight with them, check it yourself.
Just like this thread, who started it?

Majority of the South South people and I'll say, it's the South South that would cry if the Igbos does leave. ...keep dreaming Ijaw nation, but not to worry, we would be heavily secured around the eastern bothers to prevent your likes from migrating into the propserous nation.

I have never opened a single thread about Igbos on Nairaland. I criticise everybody. Hausas call me IPOB, Igbos call me Yoruba, PDP call me APC etc.
I am Esan. I couldn't care less about ijaw nation. Even if my Edos secede and become an independent country I'd still be a minority compared to Urhobos and Binis.
We don't travel to the East, only Igbos travel to my region despite the fact that we share border with Anambra(well, some of our people do buy things in Onitsha market) I can bet that you can't count up to 1000 Esan people in Igbo land whereas your people are all over our region. What makes you feel we will suddenly start travelling to your tiny region that will be battling overpopulation and pollution?
The only place we travel to is Lagos.

Igboid:
What forum exactly? Nairaland where any one can claim anything.
I belong to different minority Facebook pages.
I know that opinion differs.
Finally, you should be comfortable in your Esan ethnicity and speak only for them. Why is this hard for you to do?

I don't really care sometimes I read something extremely delusional and decide to respond.
Here's a little expo for you.
Even in 1967 when Ojukwu declared Biafra, nobody gave a fucck in the South, not even the South Westerns. Igbos migrated through Ondo, Edo, Kogi etc nobody batted an eyelid. Southerners only took interest in the conflict when Ojukwu sent Banjo to annex Benin and install an Igbo as the governor. If Igbos declare Biafra tonight I can assure you that no southerner will give a fucck

Igboid:
Nah!
You can't speak for all minorities.
You should restrict your rants to your Esan people.
This should be simple enough.
Get tired on behalf of your Esan people, don't drag others with you, answer your father's surname.
I mean, what does an Esan have in common with Legbo people in Cross River who are neighbors to Ebonyi Igbos?
But here you are speaking for everyone.
Stop it already.

check this forum to begin with and show me a south southerner that support your rants and chest beating. Go to Benin, Auchi, Warri, burutu and mention Biafra let's see if you won't be laughed at

Igboid:
There is nothing like South South people.
As Ndiigbo are found in that same South South. And I don't mean IKa and Ikwerre people.
I mean real proud Igbos.
You could have easily said that Esan people (your people) don't give a shit about Igbos and I would agree with you, though I know that Esan men like to marry Igbo women alot, so you wouldn't still be right.
But the point is that you should learn to speak for just your own people.

when I say we don't give a fucck what I mean is we don't care if you secede or not. Most ethnic groups in South South are minority of minority we don't care about the games majority groups are playing. I'm just tired of reading epistles, rants and complains online.

ThickSharon123:
That's a very dumb question, politicians aren't the people.

Look at it this way, your on politics and you do have your agenda in Nigeria, would you want to step away from Nigeria? How would you begin? How would this new country perceive you? Would they give you an opportunity to run for office in this new country? And many more, so as a politician you wouldn't and never want to leave becuase you know what's at stake for you. There would be what we call a refreshing start.

And it isn't that easy, one man can't say he wants to leave. The constitution has been made that there has to be majority in the house of representatives for a part to secede, or the president can use his veto power to let a particular group go, but none wants to do it. And I dare say, none of these politicians do not want the Igbo as president, for they believe when he's there, he'll surely allow his people to leave.

If the Igbos are silent for a long time, and do not want to secede, you'll see these dubious politicians crying for an Igbo to be on office.

You know nothing dear, in summary, Nigeria is nothing, read my lips NOTHING without the Igbos.

so, if your own Igbo leaders don't even want to secede, who are you people demanding let you go? I have no power, the people you are insulting online have no power. If you can't even convince your own tribesmen in power to help you secede why the fucck are you insulting other people and demanding they give you freedom?
Constitution don't mean shiit if all your governors and politicians declare it's unfair and that they no longer recognise it.
You are the ones who know nothing. All you do is rant and beat chest online because it's safer.
I can assure you that majority of the people don't give shiiit about Igbos. At least majority of south south people

ThickSharon123:
That's because is the truth, I rightly say Nigeria is nothing without the Igbos, that's why politicians who have brainswashed your likes do not want to let them make their own country, when it's something that's easy to do, especially when this so-called stubborn people have been giving you headache from time.

Scotland is only in Britian becuase they do understand each other, but the Scots would want to be independent, and they are in the process.

But what's Nigeria's reason, but to forcefully keep them, you hate them, but can't do without them, isn't that silly?

lol what happened when Britain gave Scotland referendum?
Look I couldn't care less about Nigeria. I know the game the majority ethnic groups have been playing since time immemorial. Give them the presidential ticket and all the Oduduwa and Biafra noise will be dead for the next four years.

Your governors can come together this evening and secede from Nigeria if they want to. Is it me that has never held even councillor position that's supposed to give you your Biafra?

Your governors can make public announcement this evening and declare the East is no longer part of Nigeria just as Ojukwu did and you will stop being part of Nigeria why don't they do it? It's because your people are greedy and cowardly and would rather insult other people than take risks. Your people are in the senate, House of Reps, ministerial positions etc working for Nigeria and collecting salary and all your people do is come online to insult other people and demand they give you freedom.
Why don't your tribesmen resign and return to the East, tell your your governors and legislature to declare your secession and see if anyone will come after you

ThickSharon123:
I laugh in Spanish. The small, small shops are the average Igbo men, who still desire to work when the country you call Nigeria doesn't want to support them.

Do you know how many Igbos that own companies and industries aboard. Even the King of one Arabian country had commended Nigeria becuase of the Igbos. It's a know fact.

Most of your people or average people do not have shops like an average Igbo man, but love to sit down and wail and cry for president, when they vote they go back way below, way more than square one.

Kantinue decieving yourself.

Fight for your president, at least it would solve your people's problems.

you completely missed my point. I'm not saying Igbos are poor or that having shops is a bad thing, I'm only responding to your insinuation that Igbos' presence in other regions improve their economy and benefit the indigenous people.

cazchi:
Tell me you're an uninformed swine without telling me you're an uninformed swine.

hahaha here we go with the insult. When Ojukwu declared Biafra, did he come to Facebook to start insulting other tribes and demanding they give him Biafra? Your governors can come together this evening and break away from Nigeria. They didn't sign any agreement with other tribes to be part of Nigeria. Your people are cowardly and greedy and would rather insult other people than take risk.

ThickSharon123:
Thank you for saying so, but you do know Igbos presence in your region greatly improves your economy, and for the Eastern lands of my beautiful Igbo people just look at the East as their vacation spots, where they build their massive mansions for a getaway spot in the festive season.

It's more like Lebanese, they invest in other areas and build mansions in their homes to rest and invest in other areas again when vacation is over, even the Jews of Israel do it, and Britons, and Americans, and every civil man.

Most of you people are living in delusion, I believe Igbos don't support southerners becuase you people are two-faced, when you want something you claim you want it, and when it doesn't work for you well, you deny having any responsibility.

The only southerners Igbo do adore and support, becuase they are brave and smart are the Efiks and Ibibio, they don't have issues, and we do live with them like they are our own.

So, go and do your Niger-Delta republic and leave us alone, biko.

PS: you claim you are way developed in infrastructure complexities than the Igbo states, stop decieving yourself, how many Niger Deltan people can rightly say they are happy in the contraption of Nigeria? That's why we are leaving you guys, if you enjoy Nigeria go and stay, and leave us alone.

madam, Igbo presence don't add a thing to our economy. The small small shops your people own here don't employ indigenes, your people bring other easteners to come and serve them, they don't provide employment, they don't build anything in the region where they are doing business, local shops don't pay taxes in the communities they're located, how exactly do they develop these regions or improve the economy of these communities?

cazchi:
When Biafra leaves, the Yorubas can calm down because Tinubu will be the President of Nigeria.

who gives a fucck about Yorubas?
See, let me give you expo, tell all your governors to demand for a separate country. If your governors declare this afternoon that they no longer recognise Nigeria as a country, then Nigeria as 36 states cease to exist. Your tribesmen are collecting salaries from Nigeria as governors, senators, house of reps ministers etc and you keep opening your mouth to insult other people and demanding they give you your Biafra. If you are serious about your secession, tell your fellow tribesmen to stop recognising Nigeria as a country, tell your people to come back to your region and stop using Nigerian naira.

ThickSharon123:
And who told you Igbos wants the presidency. Or do you think is Yoruba and the likes that's good in eye-service, if they did want it, they'll call their certified group trian them in the act of politics and wooing and that's it.

What the Igbos are fighting for is equality, and not your presidency, I don't understand the craze of presidency except putting it in history books and saying this man from this tribe was president ( that's what the Igbos don't get)

I wish you were president, if so it would be better that you did that, and watch Nigeria trying to collaborate with Biafra becuase they see the growth and international power they do get in less than years.

Nigeria is nothing without the Igbos, that's why your politicians cry for one Nigeria, becuase they do know when we leave, there's nothing called Nigeria again, they become like simple or plain African countries (and this is fact, not bragging) check the threads and you'll see how everyone are wailing indirectly begging Igbo's not to leave.

lol. Nigeria is nothing without Igbo? How? Your region is one of the worst in the country, your people can't even stay there. The only region that's important in Nigeria is South South. As for Yoruba, I couldn't care less about them.
Which one is "your politicians"? How many Igbo governors have supported secession? How many Igbo governors have ever supported anything beneficial to the South? Your governors don't even support their fellow southern governors in administrative matters and you are here trying to blame others for your woes. I wish they'll tell you all to go this very afternoon so that all this noise will finally end.
If your region is so heavenly and prosperous why don't your people stay there?
I hope they sign this secession clause so that everyone can return and remain in their region

ThickSharon123:
You go and rest, your the one dreaming in your wonderland or delusion. Isn't it what other states who have been trodden by unexpected wars said before they were clamped down., For instance, Rwanda, Whites in South Africa, etc.

If you don't believe it, then stop poking your nose where it isn't your business. If Biafra wants to leave, let them go in peace and continue with your one Nigeria.

if I were the president, I'd call your people this evening and tell them to go lol. I don't see any difference between Igbo and Fulani. Your people are only wailing because they are not in power. Give Peter Obi the ticket now and the Biafra noise will be dead in 3 days.
You are a kid if you believe fulanis will continue to try their rubbish once Buhari is gone. Nigeria is a tribalistic country and people do anyhow when their person is in power

joyandfaith:
Forced marriage at 10.
Female genital mutilation

One way, women and children are generally protected by their institutions.
No forced marriage, no female genital mutilation, equal opportunities in employment

when it happens to men, it's circumcision but when it happens to women it's genital mutilation una too funny. I personally think you females should be completely ignored
