Bane2020:

How come Yoruba and Igbo agree on every other thing except politics? on the streets of Nigeria and even abroad a common Yoruba and Igbo are best of friends, business partners, colleagues etc... lots of Igbos and Yorubas at least based on my observation here in the USA are almost inseparably noticeable in every groundbreaking academic achievements here, top of their classes and graduating set... check the Nigerian sounding names... Yorubas and Igbos top the list... Then other Nigerians. I've attended at least 3 weddings between Igbos and Yorubas over the last few months.. all this good natured relationships off the hateful world of the internet where both tribes go at each other like they can literally start a bloody war against each other anytime soon... Can never agree politically, where did it all go wrong?

The German and French were once like that. Check history. We need to be in separate countries to take each other serious.

Hotfreezer:


But you can't have your way.
Therefore, shut up and serve other Nigerians in silence.

Mehn, I really fingered this Ipob's brain tonight. I compared his first post on this thread and his last post and I'm just laughing.

Blady hypocrite claiming Saint.

Fuvck you real good. Who the fvuck you think you are? Nigur, make comparism and see for yourself the felas in deep shiit.
Ever wonder why your country is tagged a shiit hole? Simple, because you mutherfuckers ain't getting over tribalism and nepotism anytime soon. Keep voting in the wrong guys, to spite my group, and keep getting drenched in deep shiit. You all die here, eno concern we. Wtf!!!

kodded:
are you the one voting ?

He is telling you that they are going to rig the election in anyway possible.

Hotfreezer:



The Yorubas don't like us, but yet they are always after one Amaka or Chinyere. I don't just get it from those group.

Its not fact that you don't like Igbos, but crave after their women? See this one'o. The woman, ya are all hating on this post, is she not Igbo? What is her crime here, coming from a tribe ya all love to hate. Men, you all make me sick. Listen up, forget this VP bullshit, most of us have given up on this contraption, long ago. Restructure may be a way to go, for short term remedy, but in reality, we are not one. This is the simple truth.

Why should I? You made a claim, so back up your claim with facts. Else, just shut your mouth up

What a country? Honestly, this country is sitting on a time bomb. One can imagine that most of this hate posts is coming from the youths, so called leaders of tomorrow. This country, in reality is not designed to be one. The early we go our separate ways, the better for all. Tribalism is more deadly than racism.

vivlyviv:

You are right. Contracts in ondo state were awarded to her kinsmen to help facilitate her senatorial ambition but it failed. Every local government in ondo state has an igbo supervisor, courtesy of the wife. Akeredolu is being controlled by the wife.

Mr. Poster, can you provide the lists of Local Government and their Igbo supervisors? Provide facts so the world can see.

GoTV:
If these people can't contain ordinary flood how do they intend to run biafra? I just pity the igbos. Honestly

Who bewitched you with Igbos? How can you just live and breath Igbos? You go soon die ó.

Why can't Osibanjo run for presidency? His few stay as acting president, at least we witnessed some major strides in governance.

When religion mess with your mind, you start thinking like a baby. She was probably told by her pastor and church seers that the old short man is the will of God for her. Some churches tell their , through so called vision, who to marry and who not to marry. Its real men.

Enugupikin:

afonjaa go and die..afonja

That idiot is not even an Afonja. He is an Aboki guy.

onuebonyi:
Lol..you come to ,NL to look out for other states but you are never interested in your own Delta state. What kind of efulefu bastard is this?

You are mad man. Honestly, you deserve public flogging and jailed for life.

onuebonyi:
Cjrane2 you are not Igbo. Nothing can ever make you to be Igbo. Face your useless Delta state. That you were born a bastard does not make you igbo.

You such an idiot. Thunder fire you there. ezi

Osagyefo98:


Why not correct him or tackle if possible refute his submission if he is wrong.

I said this coz the last time I checked cjrane2 has ed igbos to the last if he is not igbo. He has consistently showed unwavering and love for ndigbo. So if not for anything respect him for always showing solidarity to us and adding his voice in truthful manner even if he is not igbo.

#Atikulated obi 2019#

Point of correction, he is Igbo from Delta State.

Cjrane2:


Dave Umahi is a great Governor. I would have preferred Soludo if he were in PDP. Yet, i know Peter Obi is eminiently qualified for the position.

In Nigeria, there are a lot of forces out to get ndigbo to fight and wash their dirty linen in public just to discredit Ndigbo. I when Chuba Okidigbo was Senate President, some Nigerians ran to Evan Ewerem to instigate him against Okadigbo. I knew exactly that once that happened, he too would not last because it will be another group instigating Igbos to topple him too.

The same thing happened when Nnamdi Kanu spoke about boycott of Anambra elections against a performing popular governor. I was against the boycott, but i was even more afraid of the division it could create unless our people learned to talk in closed door meetings than pages of newspapers.

Other Nigerians especially from the SW always ensnare the Igbo with one divisive topic or another. They have learnt from our history that they cannot defeat us when we are united. But they will easily tear us to shreds once they get us to sing discordant tunes. That is the danger in what Umahi is doing.

Please, keep it coming. You are a rare gem and asset to us. Ignore any low life that misunderstands you and try to insult your person. Udo diri gi.

I saw this post on facebook and decide to post it here. From all indiciation, are we really voting for Atiku because he will restructure Nigeria, or because he is picking an Igbo VP, or just innate hate for Buhari?


Atiku can never restructure Nigeria....BUT I will still his candidacy because Buhari needs to go and must go!

Here is a more "realistic fact" �

Apart from the fact that he derives his political and financial sustenance from the present status quo and as such will never wanna change it, below are some other reasons why Atiku can never fulfil his promise to bring in True Federalism.

Let us let go of emotions and embrace facts.

We all agree that our President has desecrated the land economically, politically and socially and as such, he has to pack up, go back home and spend time with his grandchildren until he receives the ultimate call of life. NO DOUBT.

Buhari rode on the back of CHANGE MANTRA to Abuja and disappointed some of you. Now Atiku wanna ride on the RESTRUCTURE-TRUE-FEDERALISM mantra to Aso Rock and some Nigerians have started celebrating without asking some pertinent and difficult questions on how he plans to make Nigeria a TRUE FEDERAL STATE.beyound the words of mouth.

The Nigerian National Assembly (NASS) which is made up of the upper house (Senate) and a lower house (HOReps) will have to vote YES (2/3 majority) for RESTRUCTURING-FEDERALISM to take place.

Now, Nigeria has 36 States currently and two-thirds of that are 24. .And you need this two-thirds to be able to make any real change in the constitution right? We will also need two-thirds of the 36 states houses of assembly to append their consent before Nigeria could be made a TRUE FEDERAL state.

Now, each state of the federation including Abuja has three Senators right and different numbers of House of Representative with some states having more than the others. We actually have more HORep in Northern Nigeria.

The Southern region has 17 States (South-west - 6, South-south - 6 and South-east - 5)

The Northern region has 19 States (North-west - 7, North-central - 6 and North-east - 6).

For any amendments to the Constitution in respect of restructuring to be made, the East (the most vocal region for a change in the status quo as at today) needs all the states in the South West (6 states) to agree to buy into restructuring. Still, it does not end with all the Southern States.

The East will still need all the states in the South-South too (This can be done if genuine agitators manifest from their—Not petrol-dollar agitators oohh!!)

The EAST will also need all the states (6 states) in the North Central (This is a mammoth task)

Still, it does not end there. They will still need another state from either the North West or North East (Without oil in these regions, this is an impossibility).

So, in essence, you can even vote a PRO-FEDERALIST President into power but he or she will still be useless IN OF ACTUALLY RESTRUCTURING Nigeria.

The skewed State creation in this country, the skewed local government creation in this country made it possible that the feudal North whose elite class benefits tremendously from the present UNITARY FEEDING BOTTLE ARRANGEMENT will have to consent to RESTRUCTURE through its proxies in the Senate, HOReps and States House of Assemblies for any kind of change to happen.

My point is that it will be hard to get anything called restructuring based on this our present structures.

The powers-that-be purposely caged us all.

What we need is a sovereign national conference.

The national assembly might not give us the solution to all these problems

The few progressives among them (If any) will be handicapped.

Differences in Ideologies are not even the main xoxo. We all know why the push for restructuring is encountering great opposition.

It is not ideological, it is based on an unfounded fear by some people who think they will not be able to generate enough money from within to run their territories and enclaves. Yes, to run the fraudulent and unsustainable states they created.

Plus, some people fear that they will lose their grip on the political powers available in their localities and the general political clout they have on the entire country.

The feudal caliphate who controls the Northern States derives their power and relevance from the semi-feudalism practised in their region, therefore, they will never willingly let go of this source of self-sustenance. The present unitary system fits in well with their sociological and traditional lifestyle up North.

You need to tell us what you mean when you say that Atiku will restructure Nigeria. How will he do it? Through an executive order? Are you dreaming?

I can understand it if your goal is only for Buhari to go

But don't insult sane people's intelligence by insisting that you want Buhari out because Atiku will ensure that Nigeria is RESTRUCTURED.

Don't try to use a noble and intellectual idea like FEDERALISM to argue your case for Atiku. Just tell the world that you want Buhari out and end it there.

pazienza:


When now I'm looking at it.
Maybe it wouldn't be bad to have plan B.

We should have plan A, B and even C. Its unfortunate our leaders are not strategic enough to think outside the box. All they care is their political interest. However, are we sure Atiku, if he eventually win is going to restructure this country? And if he is doing it, how is the restructure going to take place? Is it going to be maintaining the current status quo? i.e. the current geo-political zones to make up the federation...

onuebonyi:
Stop spewing rubbish this old useless man. That's inside the main market. Onitsha main market should not be mistaken for Onitsha city. Onitsha main market is one of the most organised in Nigeria and Africa as a whole. Onitsha as a city is beautiful and well organized.

You are from Delta state but you are not bothered about the dilapidated filthy disorganized village called Asaba.

Why not make your point without insulting him? Why re you such a troubled loved character? Okwurekwu.

E never win election una dey ride bicycle go meet am what of if him loos. mitcheew!

Abagworo:


So why are some Igbos also against Okorocha Presidency? Politics is a funny game.

Okorocha will just dabaru Igboland and Nigerian in extension. Nigerians will not even vote for him talkless of indi'Igbo.
