So since they are the victims, we call them travellers utterly barbaric. to murder innocent people. barbaric

Time shall say,,the tivs criminals are allowed to go free,then may the soul of the killed Fulani's rest in peace,May Allah provide them with Aljannah Firdausi.

shut up. If provide allah provide them aljannah and fuladnunu, what will he provide for the ones the Fulanis have killed

Nigeria is not at war but hundreds have died this January alone on religious and tribal crises with no solution on how the crises should be curtailed or brought to an end. The continual existence of Nigeria is a crime to humanity.

sarrki:
Tinubu is respected across Nigeria and world in general


Wailers hates him coz they are yet to produce a leader like him

Being respected for what exactly?
Respected for being a drug lord?
Respected for fraudulently acquiring half of Lagos all to himself?
Respected for foistering that economic terrorist wielding NEPA certificate on majority of naive Nigerians

That's true prof. Sai Buhari till 2030

Ethnic jealousy is at the roots of the hate between the Yorubas and the Igbos. Economic and political angling of past is also responsible. The Igbos are by nature very industrious and talented. They excel at just about anything they touch. The Igbos are very aggressive and domineering people. The Yorubas are afraid of the Igbo-take-over spirit and as such, are jealous and refuse to accept that reality.
If you read through the colonial documents leading up to the 1914 Amalgamation, you will see that Federick Luggard's Muhamedian Emirate of the North was broke as he routinely was unable to pay salaries to his colonial workers. At this time, Southern Nigeria (present day SE and SS regions) generated about 115 million in trade, a monumental achievement that was never-before heard of in this part of Africa then. The Yoruba Southwest at the time was called Lagos colony and this region had very mediocre economic impact.
Lagos colony was not financially bouyant, though not as poor as the North. For the Amalgamation to work however, Lagos colony and Southern Nigeria must be grouped together, in order to access the wealth generated by the Igbos to take care of the North. Luggard and his Northern conspirators only really wanted Igbo land but excluding Lagos colony would have met disapproval from the colonial office back in England charged with approving the Amalgamation plan. So, they grouped the East and West as Southern Nigeria, where the Yorubas wanted lead but Igbos refuse to allow them.
Look at it this way: your house is poor (North) but your neighbor's house is rich (South). To access your neighbor's wealth you announce that both houses belong to the same compound, so as to grab and share in the wealth of your neighbor's house.
To highlight the aggressiveness of Igbo success and ingenuity, the Igbos dominated industry and government before the civil war. Azikiwe even attempted to rule over the Yorubas in their land. Being dominated like that shook, and continues to shake, the Yorubas to their core, hence, the animosity.
More so, because the wealth of the new Nigeria was domiciled in the then South east (today's SS and SE combined), the Yorubas made sure they stand with the North to exterminate the Igbos for attempting to break away the rich region from the poor and parasitic regions. The civil war was genocide on the Igbos, Awolowo seized all the food and humanitarian supplies sent from other countries to the Igbos because the supplies came through Lagos port. The threat to deny the Yorubas and Northerners a share in the wealth now domiciled in today's SS region is why the Igbos are highly discriminated against politically, today, by the benefactors of one Nigeria. Obasanjo has confessed openly in the past that if the Federal government allows a functional seaport in the then Southeastern region, that the Igbos will use it to import military weapons to fight for breakoff. It is this reason why every was taken to Lagos.
So, the hatred or animosity between the Yorubas and the Igbos is rooted in these ethno-political and economic facts of the past. It is not personal, but ethnic or tribal instincts necessitates the blocking of other ethnic groups from outcompeting your ethnic group. The Yorubas see the Igbos as their rival in just about everything. They think of themselves as second to the North but they see the Igbos as challenging that, even with no political power or federal government help. They despise the guts of the Igbos.
Great people survive extermination. Most countries around the world hate Israel because they survived extermination by Hitler's Germany, and are today one of the strongest country and people on earth. The Igbos survived extermination by Northerners and the Yorubas to emerge today's most industrious and economically creative people. The Yorubas think this economic feat should be them. If the Igbos are allowed political power, in addition to their ability to generate money and to create things out of nothing, imagine how powerful the Igbos would dominate hence, the reason for the jealousy. The Yorubas are afraid of being dominated, but their Lagos is dominated and bought over by the Igbos. These are the causal factors.


namet

Rivers is a CHRISTIAN STATE. Deal with it

DREAMZZZ:
Men my church catholic my wicked priest dey chop everything digest am with wine for our front as hunger dey fire us

doyinbaby:

Didn't we warn you? You rebranded Buhari and sold him out to Nigerians as the Messiah not knowing that a leopard never changes its colour. We must enjoy Sai Baba together till 2023.

EricBloodAxe:

And you're the "people"? In 2019 your dullard in chief will be sent packing bro. You can asslick him all the way up to daura when that happens. Cheers.

Are you the one that will send him packing? just pray that Fulani man decides not to contest because if he does, he will rig with all weapon at his disposal and claim a resounding victory.

Nonaira1:
Stop wasting your precious time with that child rapist. The dude is an illiterate. Ndi onitsha have already slammed that their Bini claim repeatedly but you know Afonjas. Na only the shit they tell themselves is right.

Stop wasting your precious time.

Nwanne his reasoning gwuru m ike.

laudate:
Are you really interested in the answer, or is this just a trick question? If you feel he did not come from Benin, then provide your own info., and support it with the relevant facts.

Just as expected, you self destructed yourself again. Next time try and keep shut with this your illogical rants about a Bini man establishing Onitsha. mtshew!!

laudate:
Is that the name he was born with, or the name/title he acquired after he founded Onitsha??

So a Bini man came down to Onitsha and mysteriously changed his name to Eze Chima?

laudate:
Nooo....it was established by Emir Gambo Galadima the 3rd, the Tarihin Sarkin Zazzau!

https://www.freesmileyfaces.com/files/emotions/teasing-smiley-faces/20.gif

So how logical is it to you to believe that the name of a Bini man is EZE CHIMA?

laudate:
Uh? The answers can be found inside the attached excerpt. Read it.

so by your excerpt Onitsha was established by Eze Chima?

[quote author=laudate post=64569759][/quote]do you really have to post this? I asked you a simple question. Just give me a direct answer to my question

Buhari till 2023. We must enjoy this CHANGE to the fullest.

laudate:
Interesting! And all those Delta-Igbo communities that had Enogies as their traditional rulers, were.... what? Vassal states of the Bini or their conquered territories? And what about Onitsha? Wasn't it established by a Benin prince?

Tell us the name of that Benin prince that established Onitsha

Y0ruba:
.

This man must have forgotten the Osogbo war of 1870 & Jalumi war of 1878 in which the Fulani miscreants who thought of themselves as an army were comprehensively defeated and brutally massacred by Ibadan army [just one part of the whole Yoruba army] which stopped their foolish advent into Yoruba lands and put them in the background of the 19th century Yoruba warfare and diplomacy.

This people must have forgotten how Ibadan army went as far as Offa to break the Fulani grip on the town and would have marched on to Ilorin if the ‘Yoruba’ out there who had already found comfort in playing the role of the conquered and 3rd fiddle to the Fulani and Hausa requested for the help.

They will think Ibadan, Abeokuta, Ekiti armies of earlier centuries have changed until they trigger their descendants and willing Yoruba spread across the region to take up arms against them.

If they rely on importing their uncivilizaed band from across West Africa, Yoruba will readily open the border to Yoruba in Republic of Benin, Togo, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Brazil, Cuba and the Caribbeans.

is it the same army that ran away at the sight of Dahormey women?

My biggest fear is staying idle then I have this fear for something/somebody inside of me.

Tinubu or no Tinubu I must vote for Buhari. Sai baba till 2030 Insha allah

uwuuu:
Wow!!! Checkout the good news

Guy respect yourself na. Even on Virgin Mary thread you dey look for who to scam

Since the NA raided Nnamdi Kanus house the call for restructuring has died a natural death and with this the NO restructuring voice has repeatedly increased.

Restructuring to northerners means same thing as secession.

Alcatraz005:
Amen. Even though I want the igbos to be taught a lesson, I pray there is no war because it would have reverberating effects on Africa and the world at large. We have no choice but to ignore the igbos for what they are. We have defeated them already and they are frustrated. We won't go to war due to their insults.

Whats holding you? The hate you have for Igbos will kill you

Alcatraz005:
That guy ain't Yoruba! He's igbo please!

Your same person as Emeenaka

Afonjas come in many ways

Divide and rule is at work here.

Propaganda flying everywhere

Alcatraz005:
I so fucking hate uuuuuu! We don't want to be with Igbos! You are a beggar. You irritate me. Igbos must get Biafra! I really don't know what is wrong igbos! Most Yorubas don't like you! I am quite mad right now!

Na your brother you dey talk with o. Na fellow Afonja like you but all the same buuuuurn.

I love to see Yoruba Muslims get tormented on a thread like this.

If Igbos are Jews or not whats your business with it? Why are you always tormented whenever a thread like this surfaces?

Just one word... JEALOUSY
