Politics / Re: South East Should Stop Disrespecting The Niger Delta by YorubaHero12: 7:32pm On May 11, 2020 |
Hotice085: I have no addition to this piece. You have said it all. The best thing now about Nigeria is that everyone is now speaking up and having a voice. Be it either Yorubas, Igbos, Hausas/Fulanis, Southern minorities, Northern minorities, and etc. We have passed through the stages where people history are defined by other people. There are lot of misinformation on the media space and every tribe intellectuals owe their people a duty to set the narratives right by the truth going forward. Truth itself is a very potent weapon. 1 Like |
Politics / Re: South East Should Stop Disrespecting The Niger Delta by YorubaHero12: 6:23pm On May 11, 2020 |
First of all, you guys need to know exactly why most Igbos are hellbent on annexing the South-South (ND) ethnicities into their Biafra. It is a game plan that have always been in the mind of the Igbo decision makers since inception and they don't necessarily draft the SS people into Biafra based on true brotherhood. To give you a better account. In May 12th 1953, Azikwe gave a speech when the Northern people were murmuring secession and was bragging with the resources of the Eastern people as his bargaining power. Below are some excerpts from it that showed why exactly most Igbos are trying so hard to annex SS: —In my opinion, the Northerners are perfectly entitled to consider whether or not they should secede from the indissoluble union which nature has formed between it and the South, but it would be calamitous to the corporate existence of the North should the clamour for secession prevail. I, therefore, counsel Northern leaders to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of secession before embarking upon this dangerous course. —It may lead to economic nationalism in the Eastern Region, which can pursue a policy of blockade of the North, by refusing it access to the sea, over and under the River Niger, except upon payment of tolls. It may lead to economic warfare between the North on the one hand, and the Eastern or Western regions on the other, should they decide to fix protective tariffs which will make the use of the ports of the East and West uneconomic for the North. —You may ask me whether there would be a prospect of civil war, if the North decided to secede? My answer would be that it is a hypothetical question which only time can answer. In any case, the plausible cause of a civil war might be a dispute as to the right of passage on the River Niger, or the right of flight over the territory of the Eastern or Western Region; but such disputes can be settled diplomatically, instead of by force. https://www.blackpast.org/global-african-history/1953-nnamdi-azikiwe-speech-secession/ Brethen, the above is the major reason why they wanted to annex the South South ethnicities into their fold. All the bargaining power Azikwe used were resources of the SS'ner minorities. However there is one more thing that later came up to make them want these ethnicities more, that is Crude Oil. Ask yourself, if the seas and crude oil were to be in the Igbo lands of SE, will they ever try this hard to bring the SS'ners into their folds? Will they try hard to even add them to their maps? Will they show the same brotherhood they are showing? SS have oil and seas, but yet some Igbos always feel superior to them, let alone changing the situation to SE having the oil and seas. Just imagine. I know you will ask what is the Yoruba cup of tea in all this, but this country and forum is intertwined, what affects one affects everybody. Peace. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Brigadier66: Brother I understand you and you are right. However I have a different school of thought. Leaving these igbos alone is what has led to all this rubbish they always say every time that make them get away with lies. Our fathers did a great mistake by maintaining the culture of silence against the igbos because an Igbo man will never play by the rules. —Do you know there are still lot of Yorubas online that believed the hogwash that Ojuku released Awo? Don’t you think those Yorubas will be like “Oh Awo betrayed Ojuku, why will he release Awo and he supported Gowon against him”. Ojuku played his game right, after losing the war he found a fall guy in Awo. — Another example, why should Igbos be calling Yorubas Fulani slaves because we voted Buhari in 2015? Don’t we have documented historical facts of Igbo alliance with Fulanis ? How could a tribe like Igbo suddenly turn around to label the Yorubas the betrayer of south when their history showed they had countless betrayal of the south (Yorubas). Some Yorubas online don’t even know about what transpired in between 1957-1999, they all just swallow the propaganda from the igbos like that. The reason why the Igbo man is getting away with this is because they always resort to throwing the Biafra war victim card to project their propaganda because most Yoruba felt sorry for them. You don’t treat Igbos with love, you have to give it to them hot like they would if they were in our shoes. —-That is why I want to make sure I correct him to the end until he has nothing else to say. And this should even be moved to other social media space to sensitize millions of Yorubas and other tribes out there. Can you now see why I’m doing all this? Normally he has nothing more to say but I want him to keep silent. 10 Likes 3 Shares |

maestroferddi: I am not thinking outside the box based on this subject. You should rather stop being adamant. The sources below gave the same account for the scenario. -NYT: American newspaper (est 1851) -The Guardian: British newspaper (est 1821) -Reuters: British newspaper (est 1851) -Britishpathe: British picture/videos (est 1910) Infact I have seen the same news on the Australian archives before. If I lay my hand on the document I will also post it here. That’s cutting across 3 continents and they all gave the same account. But you said I shouldn’t believe all these sources and I should instead think outside of the box. Think outside the box for what exactly?

maestroferddi: You are trying to beat a dead dog here coz you practically have nothing to dispute my facts. Infact NONE of you can dispute the fact. @bolded, what could be more factual than when 4 international leading media platform covered a news in both prints and video with time stamp for the actual date it occurred. (They have the image of the actual newspaper and not just an article) These guys have the intel that most people in government don’t even have during such period. New York Times covered some of the British war against Nigeria natives giving account of the actual casualties and location of those said wars. They have been in existence since 1850s. These same foreign agencies are who gave the Biafran war the required international exposure. You think you have any news channel in Nigeria to showcase the Biafran children kwashiorkor to the world to aid Ojuku’s propaganda? Do you know how many times Ojuku always do press briefing with the international folks who in turn take it to the media to get some sympathy and aid to the Biafran people. Who captured all the Nigeria struggle for independence in the international space? These same guys. They are the one that documented the video of all those meeting our founding fathers are having and what we come to know as our history. There is a website that you can see a lot of videos of Ojuku and his speeches during the war in my hand that not only give only video but wrote an account of what transpired in each video with time stamps. Same for Awolowo/Azikwe/Gowon/etc and Nigeria as a whole. So those are the same set of people you are condemning their report. Moreso, they don’t even have any reason to support propaganda against Ojukwu then because the Igbos are still the ones in power. Ironsi only died 5days ago to the Awo release news on their medium. So there is no issue of rebel, animosity, nothing whatsoever against Igbos or Biafra. Biafra is not even yet birthed. 9 Likes 3 Shares |

gidgiddy: Stop saying nonsense on social media especially when debating with superior minds like the Yorubas. Rather bring your Igbo Professors in your citadel of learning to debate with us because we only speak with facts and not “My daddy tell me” like the Igbos do. Check the timeline below: —Awolowo was imprisoned in 1963. —Ironsi became head of state January 17, 1966 — Ojuku was appointed governor January 17, 1966 — Ironsi was assassinated July 29, 1966 — Gowon took power in August 1, 1966 — Awolowo was released August 3, 1966 Some question arise from the above: 1) Please what is Ojuku and Ironsi looking at for over 7month that they couldn’t deem it fit to release Awolowo? Why is is that he was released almost immediately as Gowon took power. 2) How could Ojuku have taken command of the whole Eastern region (Federal prison) from the federal government to release Awolowo only 4 days after the death of Ironsi. Just 4 days oooooo (infact Ironsi corpse was initially missing few days after the coup with some people speculating whether he is dead or alive) Going forward, bookmark this moniker and be always prepared before you engage me in an argument because I only speak based on facts and I only engage in topics I know I have 100% supporting facts about with credible sources. The Yorubas are brought up to always pursue the truth and advance it every time because that’s the Omoluabi honor that we always uphold. Igbos on the other part are brought up to always regurgitate any thing their parents tell them and defend it even when there is no evidence to support their parent’s argument. You should know when to GIVE UP and when to fight. In this thread, you have lost it right from the first page. 11 Likes 4 Shares |

How do you come about the statement that Borno has only poor people and few elites? Did you lived there to sample 20% of the population or you’re just dishing out statistics for the fun of it? You can’t choose when to believe, either you believe NBS completely or you don’t believe them at all. Question: NBS over the years have always said North is poorer than south, do you believe them?

rdokoye: Then why are the southerners always tagging the North as the poverty capital all this while? Then that means Borno might actually be richer than Imo state because the statistics that put Borno state below in NBS could be inaccurate since we need to sample 20% of the population like you said on your former post. Infact going forward, everyone should not believe Nigeria is the poverty capital from the likes of agencies likes of World Bank coz they did not sample like 36 million of Nigeria population before reaching their conclusion. Also, Buhari did not actually plunge the nation into poverty and he can also argue NBS need to sample several million of people in Nigeria before publishing the poverty statistics. We might as well stop believing all data and start giving statistical data based on our wishful thinking! 7 Likes 1 Share |

They always call the North countless name using the same NBS statistics but suddenly don’t want to believe the new statistics and resorted to abusing Yemi Kale. We showed them the world bank data and the Oxford data on poverty metric, all of which alluded to the same fact.

That 20 pound policy was debunked by Aribisala then if I still remember and they couldn’t bring forth a proof to dispute his facts. The Yorubas of the old chose to leave them alone coz our father pitied them for the casualties they suffered during the war. The Igbo man have been hiding under the victim mentality to project their propaganda. Now Yorubas like me and the current youth will take no nonsense from the Igbos and we will make sure they don’t get the same privilege of silence our fathers accorded them. If not that Ojuku is deranged, why should he expect food from his enemies in the first place? That is one of the reason they hated Awolowo and Ojuku used that to defend his loss in the war and used Awo as the fall guy. If I was Gowon, I would have jailed Awolowo for aiding the enemy. Abi why did baba kept the eastern region allocation for the duration of the war? And why will he even bring the policy of £20 for our enemies in the first place. 2 Likes 1 Share |
