All this epistle just to reply me!! I know a lamp can't see its underneath but I will make it easy for you, going on a solidarity parade for someone that does not see you as human, for someone that calls your country a shit hole, is nothing but acute inferiority complex no matter the motive behind the parade.

I have come to observe a new narrative on this platform, when people are getting your people battered, you now point on them to be a paid agent of division from " unknown people" but if your people are on the offensive, it is all well and good, damn it!!! you all are low budget comedians.

Trump has noted the parade done in his honour... whatever he said before about Nigeria is very correct. Nigeria at present is a shithole. We're not like you that will try to salvage the rotten and battered image of a terrorist haven. At least, the parade shows that there are a group of people domiciled in Nigeria who are not terrorists. You can't silence us because you're too small to do so. You can allege whatever, we don't bother about it. Our thinking faculty ain't the same so park one side.
Who are the people doing the battering? If only they can stop being cowards are come out blazing in their original ethnic group then we can respond to them in full. Until you're brave enough to affirm your ethnic group, you'll always be regarded a coward.
Now, crawl back to the shithole from where you you where you came.

Tochj:
While Asking questions about Pelumi
We must also ask questions about what is going on at Obigbo.
Pregnant woman are bleeding to death.
Our youths hacked down.
Little children dying.

Very true. I'm aware of the happenings in Obigbo.

jagorinho:
you do not have half of individual achievements of the Yorubas? but you wont see them shouting like a rabid dog, I do not really have problem with your chest beatings but the issue I have is always playing the " usual " victim card when things are not going your way, you can't have it on both sides, as for you calling me demented I am not surprised, an average Igbo will result to insults if his narrative is not bought by the other party, it is an I built factory error in your gene, I am not angry, you are just manifesting your innate default settings.

Are you a Yoruba? If so, then I'll say you're foolish to be insulting Igbos because we've never been a problem to you. Why do you choose to start attacking us? Then, on personal achievements, we've been through this comparison for a long time and I believe we've known that both groups are achievers and shouldn't talk down on ourselves as it will be childish. I reiterate that Igbos feel no inferiority over anyone not even Europeans. This is the reason for our high success ratio. If you see it as chest beating then you must be slow. If you accuse me of feeling inferior and I counter your accusation by telling you that facts of my success proves otherwise, you'll be very stupid to turn around and accuse me of chest beating. Do you expect me to just keey quiet why you erroneously ascribe inferiority to my people? I lay facts bare so all spectators can draw conclusions for themselves.
Lastly, I'm very conscious of some agents seeking Igbos and Yorubas to continue bickering over irrelevant matters while they themselves seek the destruction of both. This is why I don't want to attack the generality of Yorubas. If you're Yoruba, I expect you to think in that direction too. This thread is totally borne out of foolishness. Let Igbos go on a rally for who they want... it's not the business of haters what we we do in this case.

Locusts no not how to build but are masters of plunder and destruction. It's their antecedent therefore you have yourselves to blame for galvanizing them.
Adieu Nigeria.

Southern Youths are still bleeding while some foolish southerners are joining the terrorists from the sahel to accuse IPOB. We're watching.

PDSI:
The Hausa Fulani dominance is prehistoric and they still wield that power till today. Trying to rewrite the status quo is like challenging them to a face off. But rather I blame our southern politicians that have graced the center post they will always want to be in the good books of the north because of reelection. At least Obasanjo was Nigeria's president and Chukwuma Soludo as CBN president were they not the ones who approved it in 2005?

So we should stop crying foul when we had the opportunity to control things.

You lie about any Hausa/fulani dominance being prehistoric. We in Eastern Nigeria knew nothing about them and had no business with them. The whole southern Nigeria had no business with them before the coming of the British. The British it is that gave them the present power they wield in Nigeria.

NGpatriot:
lmao .

See empty, shallow, low self-esteem and inferiority complex on steroids..

Only your kinds may reason like this. I've given my reasons why inferiority and Igbo can't be in the same sentence. Counter them with points if you can. I don't blame you... a jelly fish is clearly smarter than you.

This is a public forum, you don't get to dictate to people what they can and cannot say.


Go and start your own forum where you get to dictate what people say or discuss.

Like I said, you're no match for me. You already lose in your own thread. Crawl back to the burrow from whence you came.

NGpatriot:
Trump love his country while you hate and despise your own country, what an irony and state of cluelessness on your part.

What is there to a love about a contraption where human lives are below that of cows? What is there to love about a contraption that stiffles excellence and rather rewards mediocrity and violence. We're not dumb to be patriotic towards such an evil enterprise that has consistently shown us no love. Will you say I'm 'playing the pity card' by mentioning these things? If a supposed country will leave a whole region unattended and prefer to borrow money to go build a rail line in another country, it simply tells you how much they regard you.
We're totally unapologetic about our views of this Nigeria. We give thanks to God for having blessed us with a high propensity for success and a never dying spirit. If you're looking for someone clueless, go look into the mirror.

jagorinho:
Every Nigerian group turned the country to poverty capital of the world including Igbos, do not try to absolve your people, about inferiority complex, you can smell it from an Igbo man from afar, it is not by physique or your prowess in business, it is more of mindset. The Igbo man is fast in playing the pity card when found out ( marginalization, civil war etc), but when in the driving seat, he is the best after sliced bread others are just sub human.

Only a demented person will suggest that a group of people with high individual achievements on all fronts of human endeavour have inferiority complex. Every success requires courage and resilience and that's the hallmark of Ndigbo. Therefore, if you still insist in trying to force your narrative about Igbos and feeling inferior, it simple means you're demented.

NGpatriot:
Stop the hypocrisy.

If you are going to play victim and make noise about respecting other people's choices, practice what you preach by respecting and allowing other people to voice their views and opinion.

You're the real hypocrite who's crying over something that doesn't concern you. You're not from the US neither is Joe Biden your father. Learn to respect other people's political choice.
Show me just one sentence that even suggest I playing any 'victim'? I'm far bigger than your mind can grasp.

Jones4190:
I'm from benue state but I decree my total support for wike

With 419 attached to your name, we need look no further to know the person operating it is a fraud. Park one side sokoto gudali.

And so? How many of you have been opening threads about how she has/will lose the position for a long time now? They supporting Trump doesn't translate to rejecting her. She will win if it's slated for her to win.
Their support for Trump is their business.

jagorinho:
lol, u sabi dem well, you will hear stuffs like " after the war, we were given £20 to start afresh but now we are the richest in the country " and all other bull shit stories, the funny thing about how they see things is that they chest beat over little things that shouldn't be an issue for a sane mind .

I have never seen a large group of people that love to hype/ praise themselves incessantly at any available opportunity . Sometimes aggravated overconfidence is a thin veil to cover a deep inferiority complex, that is just the tale of an average Igbo man. I think the loss of the war has a direct influence on their battered inferiority complex, they are always out to prove every time that they are better than other tribes ( winner of the war) even when it is not necessary.

Inferiority complex? Who do the Igbos feel inferior to? Mention just one group and state why the Igbos could have felt inferior to those people? Is it in standard of living, level of education, academic achievements on the international level, sports, entertainment or even wealth creation. Is it even in looks or physique? Tell me why an average Igbo man should feel inferior to those that have ran Nigeria into being the poverty capital of the world and a terrorist hotbed where human life is today valueless.
Don't you ever attach inferior to Igbo in your life again.

LegendHero:
One of my colleague just asked me about this today notifying me that he saw that we Nigerians embarked on a rally because of Donald Trump and he was very disappointed because he said how could we support someone that the African Americans never wanted coz of how they are being treated under him.

The funniest thing is that my colleague joined us here to protest the EndSARS together at the Nigerian embassy in Atlanta in solidarity coz he said we are both witnessing the same kind of police brutality under our respective government.

I had to sit him down and told him Nigeria got some crazy folks that are delusional because they thought Trump would grant them a new country and that he shouldn’t be disappointed due to the few stupidity of some of us.

See what Nnamdi Kanu People caused now!

Even right there in the US, millions of African Americans still voted for Trump so why do you call those here who show their support for him 'crazy and delusional'? It's quite clear that there's no convergent point with characters like you.
Nnamdi Kanu's people have the fucking right to support whosoever they want. Don't European governments have their preferred choice of who wins the presidential elections in African countries? Your hate is natural and it has been accepted for what it is.

CSTRR:
south east is suffering the side effects of chronic brain drain.

The best igbo minds are not in the east. They are in lagos.

The igbos in the east are not the smartest in the ethnic, and so they carry out many cringe worthy acts disgracing the ethnic group.

The despicable nature of governance there and the ipob phenomenon is a consequence of this brain drain.

The IQ residing in the east is sub-optimal, and unfortunately, their actions would be used to judge the igbo as a whole, even though igbos in lagos and the diaspora don't support it.

After your pontification and insults on the Igbos, you should crawl back to the gutters from where you emerged. Their actions doesn't in any way concern you. They did it peacefully... that's all that matters you brain dead slowpoke.

YungMillionaire:
who said Igbos might actually be the most stupid people in the world?.

This is a question o! I am not insulting any tribe.

Who said 'YungMillionaire' is actually a stinking vagabond of the highest order in the world?

NGpatriot:
The enemy of their enemy is their friend even if that frined hates them like shit!.

What's good for Nigeria is bad for them and what's bad for Nigeria makes them happy.

This is their warped nature and sadistic way of life.

You don't have the to complain about their choice to rally for Trump as long as they go about it peacefully.

See how they turned a pure jihadist raids of indigenous people in northern Nigeria a 'war' while tagging proper inter-tribal wars in the south 'local fights'. Whatever Uthman Dan Fodio did was a religious thing and his logo he used remains a religious relic. Why then should it be used on an emblem of a supposed secular country? The British government are solidly behind the numerous problems we're facing today. It's very painful to know that all of us including their so called 'friends' are all being played. Whatever friendship they claim to share is simply because of the economic benefit that accrues from it. If we kill ourselves here, they'll still laugh behind the scene.
However, one thing is certain which is that nothing lasts forever. Some day the yoke shall be broken.

Rugaria:
Some of us are not all that naive. Some of us have been around for a while to smell the coffee from afar... My secondary School had her Latin insignia in her emblem, so I should know all that from then... Those who chose Arabian wars/struggles/letters as a base for the insignia of Nigerias army logo, know what they are doing. . The motivating factors behind their choice, shares a family resemblance with the motives behind biulding an Aso rock and the dome of the national assembly with Arabian architecture. The same reason why Arabic letters were in the currency, the same reason why Muslim officers dominate the army...60% of Nigerians can't read Arabic, so who actually is it there for? Domination in this context is not an imaginary assumption, it's the reality we're dealing with... Part of the reason why fierce nepotism in government circles thrives today is because when little signs of sect chauvinism like this cropped up in the past, folks never took them serious...

Exactly. Don't mind them. Others may fail to see what's happening but we won't ever fail to point those things out.

UKBobo:
However, the riot has given one an opportunity to do a historical analysis of this ugly side of Nigeria, starting with our vantage Kano city, which looks like a citadel of suspended destruct of sort and literally, a ‘Ph.D holder’ in clinical slaughter, ethnic cleansing, mayhem and spread of sorrowfulness. Apart from the Jos riot of 1945 by the Beroms and the Hausas, which was a wake up call against almagamation and southerners domination of Jos and its environs; in 1953, the North had witnessed a riot and a massacre which was planned and coordinated by Mallam Inua Wada of the Northern People’s Congress {N.P.C} – a political party that evolved from the Native Authority Administration. That riot was caused by the anticipated visit of Chief S. L. Akintola, a member of the Action Group party, a bitter rival of the N.P.C, to Kano. In the report of Justice G.C.M Onyiuke Tribunal of Inquiry, titled MASSACRE OF NDI-IGBO IN 1966, Mallam Inua Wada, a member of Nigeria’s ruling ‘political intelligentsia’ was quoted to have said inter alia :

“Having abused us in the South, these very Southerners have decided to come over to the North to abuse us, but we are determined to retaliate treatment given to us in the South. We have therefore organised about 1000 men ready in the city to meet force with force. We are determined to show Akintola and his group what we can do in our land when they come… The N.P.C has declared a strike in all Native Administration offices for Saturday, 16 May 1953… We shall post sufficient number of men at the entrance of every office and business place… We are prepared to face anything that comes out of this business”.

In this quote, Mallam Wada made reference to abuse of Northerners in the South. What was this abuse that was enough to call for a retaliation? Here, Mallam Inua Wada, a former Federal Minister and an honourable man, recalls: “It was the booing and jeering experienced by the Northern members of parliament at the hands of Lagos crowds in Lagos”. So, on Saturday, 16th May 1953, despite the fact that Chief Akintola team’s did not even turn up, red-eyed organised mobs and hoodlums went into action and killed innocent citizens from the South, especially those from the Eastern part of the country. One glaring point to note here says the Justice Onyiuke’s report, is, the use of government machinery to perpetuate and escalate the dastardly act. The Native Authority agents, who were supposed to protect the people, became agents of death.

In the early sixties, the Northern Peoples Congress {NPC‘s} desperation to make sure no Southern political party was able to make in-roads into the North was in top gear. The middle belt people, through the able leadership of late J. S Tarka, chose, out of their own free will, to align forces with Chief Awo’s Action Group party. In mature democracies, that would have been read and seen as a deft political move but not in Nigeria. The NPC, which was then the ruling government with Zik’s party, deemed Tarka’s action as sacrilegious and a political hara-kiri. All attempts by the NPC to appease and harangue the Middle Belt people failed. The party then decided to unleash mayhem in the area by planting seeds of discord and confusion. The Tiv riots of those early sixties were as a result of NPC‘s disregard for the rule of law and observance of respect for a people’s right to choice. Again, the use of state machinery to escalate the crisis, rather than curtail and contain it, was made manifest: the Army and police were used to suppress those riots and brutalized the people, leaving deaths and wanton destruction in its trail.

Then came the riots of 1965 and “wetie” in the ‘wild, wild’ West. That riot again was as a result of a flawed election in which Akintola’s NNDP won to the consternation of the favoured ACTION GROUP party of Chief Obafemi Awolowo. That Akintola’s NNDP was fully backed and used by the N.P.C Federal might to forcibly impose their wimp and cause confusion in the Western region was never in question: it was an established fact. Again, in that programmed mayhem, which was achingly well plotted, deaths and sorrowfulness were harvested.

The riot of all riots however came after the failure of 15th January 1966 coup led by Major Nzeogwu. The counter-coup of 29th July 1966, otherwise aptly tagged the “revenge coup”, which was planned and executed by Northern officers, created anomie. The counter-coup was horror personified. Soldiers and civilians of Northern extraction took Igbo civilians resident in the Northern region, to the cleaners. There were no hiding places. There was a maximum infliction of emotional torture on the Igbo civilians. The civil service jobs and businesses, which had attracted Igbos and others to the region, became their albatross-cum-graveyard.

In the May, September and October 1966 riots, apart from the slaughter of more than 122 Igbo military officers {read Ademoyega 1983 and Uwechue 1969}, a total of, says Onyuike report, “between 45,000 and 50,000 civilians of former Eastern Nigeria were killed in Northern Nigeria and other parts of Nigeria …….”. What was supposed to be a military affair became a horror, the brunt of which was borne by Igbo civilians. It was a kind of “escape from Sobibo” – a true movie depicting the massacre of the Jews in the town of Sobibo in Austria during the 2nd world war.

Those riots then led to the massive exodus of Easterners back to their own Region. That, snowballed into a genocide which ended in 1971. The rest of what happened is now history. Again, in those animalistic riots, butchery and bestiality, one thing was distinct: the use of the state machinery: the police, Army and other apparatuses of governments were effortlessly used to commit those heinous actrocities against innocent Igbo civilians in the North.

In 1980, Nigerians witnessed the Maitatsine Religious disturbances in Kano, which later spread to Kaduna, Jimeta, Yola, Gombe and Maiduguri. A careful reading of Nigeria’s history of riots and religious disturbances clearly shows that KANO, has become a no-go area for Southerners and Christians alike, especially the Igbos. In fact, even if you are a Southern Moslem and you a

re more pious and holier than Fodio’s descendants, you are not welcomed to Kano. The people of Kano are a “superior” people, the real legitimate Hausa! The rest Nigerians are infidels. The same people come to Lagos and trade freely without harassment. The justice Anthony Aniagolu Commission of inquiry report into those disturbances, is a detailed enough reference material.

In 1983, we were witnesses to the NPN inspired Omoboriowo riots in Ondo state. Chief Omoboriowo was deputy to Chief Michael Ajasin who was the elected Governor of Ondo state. Omoboriowo later left the UPN to join the NPN and was automatically slotted in as the party’s flag bearer for the state. Of cause, Omoboriowo was popular among the people of Ondo state but his impatience and sheer desperation to take over from Chief Ajasin became his undoing. In the race for the governorship, the NPN which was then the reinvented NPC of old, mustered its muscles, rigged as usual and announced Omoboriowo as the winner. Hell was let loose. Death and wanton destruction visited households. It was in that riot that a well known industrialist and publisher, Chief Fagbemiro, was killed – in fact burnt to almost ashes.

Nigerians has so far, writes Prof. Sonni Tyoden,{ a Middle Beltan} in his book titled: THE MIDDLE BELT IN NIGERIAN POLITICS {1993}, witnessed the “Kafanchan, Kaduna and Zaria communal explosions and /or religious fracases; the Chieftaincy squabbles in Lere, kaduna State in 1987; the Tafawa Balewa and Bauchi hostilities in 1990; Zagon Kataf ” in 1992. In 1991, the Tafawa Balewa local government in Bauchi state exploded. This writer was among those resident in Jos who saw the fleeing and influx of Southerners into Jos.

Again, what was the immediate cause of that riot? It was, writes Prof. Tyoden, “ as a result of the reluctance of the Bauchi State government to excise and create the Tafawa Balewa Chiefdom from the Bauchi Emirate in line with the recommendations of the Justice Babalakin Commission of Inquiry” that looked into previous disturbances there. The Safawas in Tafawa Balewa are mostly Christians and traditional people who cherished their culture and do not want to be associated even thinly with the Emirate institution. They were refused that chiefdom by the Hausas. Only God knows whether it has now been created.

In 2006, a far away Danish cartoon which purportedly made a caricature of Prophet Mohammed caused another bloody riot in Maiduguri. In a one-hour documentary focussed on that riot in Nigeria, shown a week to the 2008 Xmas on UK Sky God’s TV channel, it was revealed that 56 churches were burnt down and Christians and Southerners mostly Igbos had their shops and goods destroyed or burnt while some were caught and slaughtered in their numbers. As confessed by Bornu state Christian indigenes, Yorubas and Igbos, it was confirmed ones more that the state folded its arms and watched as those perpetuating those crimes were freely moving from place to place unchallenged by our law enforcement agencies.

The Jos riots of 2001, 2004 and 2008 were most, linked to the Hausa/Fulani hegemonic tendency. The 2008 riots which killed about 200 Yorubas and destroyed about 5 billion naira worth of property of the Igbos, among their dead, has now made it clear that Southerners are not safe at all in Northern Nigeria. Did the state government act quickly to nip the Jos riot in the bud? No! That the riot was as a result of a political clash between the indigenes and the Hausa/Fulani settlers – which seemingly had no bearing on the resident Southerners because of our practice of fake federalism – shows that, it is time for a concrete action on the part of the South. In elementary or “ordinary level economics” by Lawal, most of us were taught in “factors affecting the location of industry,” and by extension enterprise and small scale businesses, that if there is the presence of insecurity in a place of economic interest, what to do is simple: flee!

Apart from the scale of the 1966 massacre, the quantum of destruction and lost of human lives in the Zagon Kataf {1992} and the Tafawa Balewa {1991} disturbances were scary. The carnage was unimaginable. And in those two, writes Prof. Sonni Tyoden, “the Hausa/Fulani were at the receiving end”. Those, would have been enough to make the Hausas sit back and critically reflect on their role in this funny amalgam called Nigeria, but had they? No.

The Sagamu riots of 1999 between the Hausas and the Yorubas, was as a result of the intransigence of Hausas to obey a simple cultural ritual observance of the Yorubas: the Oro festival. The Ketu – Mile 12 riot of the same 1999, between the Yoruba and the Hausa was also a case of the Hausa /Fulani trying to play the landlord in another man’s territory. A thing which is a taboo for Southerners living in Kano, Sokoto, Katsina, Zamfara and Daura.

Even the Bodija/ Ibadan market riot of 23 June 1999, was caused when a Yoruba man was knocked down by a cow among a herd of cattle. An argument which had erupted over the incident snowballed into fisticuffs. An Oodua mob later formed and a bloody riot started. That, left 10 people stone dead and 130 shops burnt.

When Alhaji Aliko Dangote decided to use his trailers to evacuate the victims of the Ketu-Mile 12 riots back to our riot prone Kano. The returnees recounted their ordeal to their Kano brethren. Within seconds, an Arewa mob had formed and had unleashed horror and retaliated on the Yorubas resident in Kano. Such is the doomsday lifestyle of Nigerians. The act of revenge has evolved into part of our value system! It is this “an eye for an eye” philosophy, says Ghandhi, that has made “ the world blind”. So, with the exception of Aguleri / Umuleri, Ife / Modakeke and Junkuns/Tiv communal clashes whose scales are scary but limited in spread, most others in the North come with intense deathliness to southerners.

Based on these, it is pertinent to make the following practical submission and recommendation to Southerners resident in the North: one, it is noted that the state plays no effective role in helping to check the spread of those carnages but rather tend to cunningly aid and abet them. It had not arrested, and even if it did, had not prosecuted and dealt with those arrested, which would have acted as deterrent to other hoodlums. Government commissions of inquiry into most of them and the reports and white paper thereof, rarely see the light of day. Two, depending on the type of riot, Southerners, resident in the far north, should learn to come together at the shortest notice, to mobilize, organize and fight back when attacked. Forgiveness in Christianity does not connote cowardice. Most Christians love life “so tay” – Nigerian pidgin English – they don’t want to die for Christ and yet they want to go to heaven.

Even where the good lord has admonished that “if you lose your life for my sake, you will save it” and if you save your life for the sake of the world, you will lose it, most still fear death. You have to learn to fight to protect your family and property. You don’t sit back and watch while a group of hoodlums rip open the womb of your pregnant wife, bring out the unborn child and slit its throat. Learn to organise, mobilize and fight back. NIGERIA MUST BE ONE, abi! So, let it be one by all means!

Albeit, the modest option left, for mostly Southerners, is to take a firm but conditional resolution, and that is, to leave for good the following Northern cities and towns, namely, Kano, Sokoto, Katsina, Daura, Nguru, Bauchi, Maiduguri, Yola and Jimeta until such a time they are guaranteed, genuine and sincere security. Southerners should stop endangering their lives in these places.

The riots in these cities, anytime they incubate, ripen and burst, have some common attributes and the response of governments to them is suspect. They should therefore pack their bag and baggage and leave. Whatever economic ventures they are involved in, can be found in other peaceful and tolerant states. They should migrate to such. Thus opines the Justice Onyiuke’s report: “The foundation of Nigeria contains the seeds of its own destruction”. Since our leaders have become allergic to good governance, may the dead continue to leave their trodden footpaths for us to tread on, and may the souls of all those who died in those riots continue to rest in perfect peace. AMEN! I rest my case!

Aptly written. Many southerners think they have a country. Worst still, some southerners think join those terrorists from the Sahel to hate on any section of the south will in any way help them. It has never favoured ANY SOUTHERNER dead or alive. Certainly it didn't favour Akintola, nor did it favour Nnamdi Azikiwe. Did it MKO Abiola? NO. What about Chuba Okadigbo? Rochas Okorocha? Orji Uzor Kalu, Tinubu, and the current fool called Wike? It has never and will never favour any of these people. In all of the south, only one man has dinned with them and came out 'unscathed'. He's no other than OBJ- the fox. Notice that both times(1976 and 1999) he came to power, he was simply handed the position and he ensured not to shake any tables. It was under him Shari'a law was born in the core northern states. Some credits can go to him for the little attempts he made at balancing the power play which today has been destroyed by the maniacal Major-general of not a shred of blessed memory. Remember OBJ has spent considerable time with these people such that one can say he knows them very well. Which other southern politician knows these people very well? I can't think of any at present. Only Rochas comes close but even at that, recall his dramatic exit from the ANPP convention event in 2007. All his attempts at the presidential position has been met with a solid rejection. What chances do people like Umahi, Wike and the rest of the naive politicians down south have under such situations? Irrespective of how you kill your people to please them, you're still a fool to them and in due time they'll remind you.
Let me bring in another popular figure that worked with them and let's hear his current thoughts and stand. Every knows this man who made his fortune from dining with them and doing the dirty job for them. The billionaire himself- Theophilus Y, Danjuma. This man did all sort of things in their company and really enjoyed the cream that flowed from the spoils they got but eventually, the scorpion has no friend. When they came for his ancestral land and people, he now remembered that 'the Nigerian Army are colluding with the fulani militias' to wreck havoc on his people. No one is exempted in their map for destruction. Governor Ezenwo Nyesom Wike today is the fool who thinks himself wise by inviting them to come and kill off bonafide citizens of Rivers State. I wonder if that man knows the political history of such engagements. There's a big difference between being petty and being foolish. Wike erstwhile abandonment of Obigbo LGA could be seen as petty but the current draconian slaughter he has supervised against Rivers indigenes of Obigbo just to appear in the good books of those vampires will for a future political ambition will end in his own loss. In future, there will be a saying thus: 'like Afon.ja like Wike'.
Finally, it is my desire that all southerners use their deductive abilities to reason out the political trajectory so far. The powers that be have put themselves in a position of 'no going back'. The die has been cast already and they're getting ready to go full throttle. It is make or mar for them. Any willing tool in the south remains a willing tool- expect no reward. Most likely, these willing tools will end up being cannon fodders. How did Adaka Boro end? Oh ye southerners, learn the game and times that you're in. You've been warned.

Video is an old one. This was shot during GEJs time and it has nothing to do with the current events in Rivers State.

Clearly, the Nigerian Police learnt nothing from the recent protest. Do any sensible person out there still believe in Nigeria? You're supposed to feel safer in your country but alas, it's never so in Nigeria.
OP, I feel your pains. Don't worry help will come soon.

Eastlink:
But let's admit the truth. Are majority of you people not illiterates in that your IPOB? Did Kanu finish university? How many Igbo intellectuals are members of IPOB?

Your insistence on using the word 'illiterate' clearly shows your level of understanding. You're still far below my level. IPOB boasts of all classes of people just every other pressure group. We've not done and are not interested in doing any census aimed at knowing the literacy rate of our members. Our goal remains to extricate our people and land from the evil contraption called Nigeria. We don't want to be party of an supposed country where people are killed so easily and no one is held accountable.
Now, I'll advice you to respect our opinion as we've conducted ourselves with utmost restraint all these years despite the wanton harrassment and killings visited on us by your incompetent military men who have failed woefully in protecting the people of Nigeria from Boko Haram terrorists.

Nchenches:
Wike wants to be president of Nigeria.

His manner of going about it is foolish.

Exactly. Wike like I've always maintained is a local politician and lacks the exposure to handle a greater position. We've opened his file already and we're waiting for him. If he was wise, he would have asked what happened to Peter Odili's presidential ambition. Wike can even call some politicians from his Rivers State who are on national assignment and ask them about this his disgraceful attacks on IPOB. He'll quickly backtrack and understand the strategy to obtain political power. Wike is biting more than he can chew and soon he'll be gagged by it. He thinks there's anything he can do to win the favour of those who won't waste time in wasting him should the opportunity presents himself. Wike, after pointing his rotten fingers against his people and wasting Rivers State money should know that we won't accept his apology when the time comes.

Educationally! A lot of us don’t expose ourselves. Only illiterates feel insulted when educational achievements are brought to the fore.

One thing I’ve noticed about you IPOB members is illiteracy. I’m surprised how a drop out can be leading a bunch of matured men and yet non can verify the authenticity of his claims.

Since you brought up education, let highlight your masters CV.

1. Educationally - Drop out
2. Financially - No penny until he saw the business angle of Biafra
3. Business Management - Zero
4. Family Management - Both Mom and Dad died before their time. Even his Big Sis is still a Police Officer and has yet to tender her resignation.
5. Support Management - Young men have being sent to their untimely grave all thanks to his follishness.

I’m only helping you out as you want to toe this line.

The challenge is between you and I. You first brought the allegation about illiteracy hence I took on you. You better shut your vocal orifice and face your own people who can't be compared with IPOB on any mental capacity. You're not knowledgeable enough to 'help' me. Stop insulting IPOB else I'll come hard on you.

When illiterates have no points they begin to talk trash. So you listed the names as non-Ibos while you left yourself as genuine. Imagine the Ishi azu.
My viewpoint is the argument of many true nwafor. You think I’m alone. People are beginning to speak up to the stupidity of your IPOB. And you’ll begin to get the message in no distant time.

You're not my level educationally and academically. You're simply naive to assume I can't see through your veiled camaraderie. You can only fool simpletons who are not verse on the Nigerian coordinates. I'm a different type of person. Go look for your mates to take on.
I'll let your insult slide for now.

Very true. It is not for simpletons. The only problem is when that politics becomes unproductive for the generality of the people as exemplified in Nigeria.

When youths of Hausa or Fulani clash with youths of Yoruba in Lagos, a person hardly reads craps from cowardly loudmouths such as the Yoruba in north will pay for the clash. However when a handshake happens in Onitsha or Obigbo between youths of Hausa or Fulani and Igbo, the despicable loudmouths will fill the social media with tales of Ndigbo will pay for this saga in north. In the other hand though, you hardly read from the same ninnies the retaliatory act in the south when youths of Hausa or Fulani riot against the interests of Ndigbo in northern region of Nigeria. All I have to tell these dingbats is that today is not 1967. Nigeria will permanently cease to exist with any wrong move in the north.

They don't know the world is aware of the Biafran war and the evil that happened them. That was the first time in history where videos of malnourished children in their hundreds of thousands was shown on the main stream media. Some people are still asking about that territory and what happened to it. Nigeria is just a step from breaking. Instead for the fulanis to focus on Zamfara gold and seek other means of sustaining their Arewa republic, they think they can silent a 35million population with a worldwide network. They must be joking.

IGBOSON1:
What they're trying to achieve with all these lies is to 'give a dog a bad name in order to hang it'! They're trying to justify to the int'l community the 'terrorist' tag they've given to Mazi Kanu and IPOB. I doubt it has much to do with trying to instigate murder against Igbos in the north.

Their actions are driven mainly by their intense hatred for Igbos and their desire to ensure the continued existence of their 'one Nigeria'!

You understand the main goal for this recent attack on IPOB unfortunately for them, the international community understands better. We hold rallies in more then 50 places around the world sensitizing the about the evil going on in Nigeria. All these countries know we are law abiding and contributing to their economy.
IPOB will continue to wax strong.

This is the information age... nothing can be hidden anymore. Those defending this evil government are so dumb. Wikileaks reveals the most covered state secrets despite all the security in place. All of you trying to cover this up are so dumb. Do you think we're living in the dark ages? The Nigerian Army think that killing and carrying away the corpses will hide the evidence? Chai!
Reality will soon hit all of you.

Governor Wike should tread with caution lest he lands in what will consume him. If Wike chooses to be the Afonja of the East, he should know that both he and his alimi will not remain in the land. How does he think he send a people away from their ancestral lands. Those who he's trying to please will be laughing at him now.
Wike, teta n'ura!
