Gbawe:

Was Nyako not a PDP Governor far longer than he was an APC Governor? This is the very essence of our discussion here. I.e the way some folks always see ethnicity and partisanship in everything. You talk as if Nyako and Fan-Kayode are somehow exclusively representative of the APC when both are just cross-carpeting politicians going where their bread is buttered. Did the APC completely hone the character and political outlook of Nyako and Fani-Kayode when the Party did not even exist when both first gained political office? Yet you and another Igbo chap have given Nyako's utterance as reasons to view the APC as anti-Igbo when he was a PDP Governor not too long ago !!! No one in the APC asked FFK to write "anti-Igbo articles" and in case you have not noticed he is doing same against the APC now he is a PDP member. That is what FFK does that a sensible person cannot assume indicates the character of the APC. Why then do you talk as you do if we are not dealing with the biased and unobjective mien that makes you taint what/who you do not like with notoriety while you fail to see same in yourself or anything/anyone you support?

It is sad, aside the usual sentimental and highly biased utterances, that no Igbo has produced a coherent argument that evinces a believably factual case for the PDP being better than the APC or indeed serving the interest of the Igbos better.

aresa:

You mean speaking up against corruption and incompetence as Nigerians means we are anti ibo?

Your ibo governors deported ibo people too so what's your point? Are they anti ibo too?

your hatred and bigotry predates gej and the people you mentioned so try again

Gbawe:

Most of them simply confuse themselves while trying to deceive others about their prejudiced and discriminatory outlook. They cannot put up a coherently factual argument and are only able to deploy sentiments and bias. Pathetic.

edogirl2:

Always interesting to see people mischievously enlist the SS into some kind of unholy alliance of hatred against Yorubas.

When did SS and SE people meet and agree on this evil charade?

Obviously I can't talk for everyone in the SS, but many people I know from my side would be repulsed by the idea of being told who to like or dislike.

I have zero problems with Yorubas, or Hausas, Igbirra, Igbos or whatever.

AkinEgba:

Should Igbos (or any other group for that matter) be the one going around asking a political party to accept them? How does campaign work in the US and elsewhere? Do Latinos go begging the GOP to accept them, or it's the other way round? If APC wants Igbo votes they should work for it. Otherwise keep your party.

On the colored, is PDP an Igbo party too? Has anybody stopped you from coming to Igboland?

nku5:

Could you kindly tell me why those two misanthropes could not broadcast such, vile, volatile garbage when they were in PDP? Why does the PDP-APC cross-carpeting bring out the bigot?

Also clarify what you mean by "fani kayode doing the same thing against APC"? Ffk wrote hate articles against an ethnicity, abi does your party now represent a tribe?

clevadani:
nyako's action was condemned by all.

U've said nothing about el Rufai.

dose ppl dat were deported,were dey dragged from dia houses and forced out of Lagos or were dey destitutes?

is it only fashola that has repatriated citizens back to dia states? even peter obi d best Igbo governor repatriated even fellow igbos back to dia states(if u doubt,read dis article https://www.osundefender.org/?p=114731)
besides fashola showed proofs dat Peter obi approved d deportation

iiichidodo: Not all or maybe we missed Lai Mohammed's Official statement of condemnation and dissociation [color] [color=#1980BC] Yeah right,So Kwankaso's belated intervention was on what or whose capacity?? Please spare us the false rhetorics. Laughable attempts at playing down the harsh,inciting rhetorics of the social media fiend maybe you should take time out with his twitter feed... Another hopeless but comical attempts at devil advocation maybe you should ask them if they chose to be abandoned about 3am at a location as notorious as sambisa?? Maybe it is their fault the truck lost its way?? Sorry, We don't read trash from yorobar newssite..So far,as we can see from objective and widely circulated rags (papers) Peter Obi nor any igbo governor whatsoever never dislocated people from one state to another in igbo land.....

Gbawe:

I don't think you need me to tell you that prejudice and bigotry are characteristics that do not choose when to be "brought out". It is your prerogative to assume the APC is somehow responsible for the prejudiced utterances of Nyako and FFK but those two, like most of us, are who they are.



Is FFK not portraying the APC as a Party of Islamists and terrorists? When FFK makes blanket claims about an ethnic group, that is not different to him doing same about a political Party with the point being that this is what FFK does and it really is amazing you conveniently and conclusively use the actions of effectively two individuals who have long associations with the PDP, i.e FFK and Nyako, to conclude the APC is anti-Igbo while you fail to acknowledge the many members of the APC, to include Igbo individuals, who are brilliant leaders and technocrats who represent some of the best Nigeria has to offer. Anyway, your choice to see what you want if that suits your preconceived opinions.

iiichidodo: Speaking against alleged corruption and incompetence of ONLY THE IGBO in the admin,We guess Jesus now lives in the holy places of Southwest and North.

There is no proof or link highlighting any such incidences of deportation of igbos in igbo land…Seems you yeribas are up to your usual antics of 'salt and pepper

You keep pointing fingers uttering hate and what not when we are careful to insist we don't hate but look out for ourselves...Only if you would eschew guilt-tripping to see four of your own fingers pointin back at you.

clevadani:
www.nairaland.com/1386438/governor-peter-obi-repatriated-destitutes

iiichidodo: True even though this has here has proven that fashola established the precedent,but to be fair,Obi has never repatriated any yorobar.....In the principle of tiit for tat the act will be justifiable moreso dropping them off at a lonely stretch of Oshodi-Apapa expressway around 1 am...

aresa:

[s]We sat here and railed against the likes of Gbega Daniel, OBJ, Akala and others regardless so where people come from makes no difference when it comes to right and wrong, unfortunately, all you people see is tribe[/s].

Tribe is the beginning and end of everything ibo.

Tribe to you comes first before right and wrong hence your bigoted, hateful and paranoid state of existence.

clevadani:
so fashola should be blamed for Peter obi's actions right? d guy repatriated his kinsmen

clevadani:
well it doesn't surprise me anymore. it seems most of igbo leaders are shortsighted and are only attracted to d honey at d centre. They've refused to make future alignments dat will enable dem to get to d presidency. They are all interested in dia pockets.
heck dey even supported obj(he even defeated Lord ojukwu in his own state ) even when his ppl rejected him.
dey also supported him to ensure dat ojukwu lost his senatorial zone when he went for d Senate. mtchewww

This is a reflection of your own ignorance because the governors involved are yet to deny it.



Do you also do this when you spew your religious bigotry and hate related rants about northerners including the derogatory and hateful labels like supporter of APC?

You can not even intelligently articulate the reasons for your hate and bigoted rants...

StBlack1: [s]Nice posts from Gbawe, barcanista et al.

But however, I'd like to stop short of fully endorsing this exercise of 'correctional' admonitions you all have really did well to share with these people on this thread. Though you may see this as important to help them identify their weaknesses & then work out on how to reestablish the many bridges they have succeeded in burning, i wish to err on this side of caution at this point by stating that not only are we wasting some valuable time trying to re-orientate the political philosophy of these people, i think we MAY be doing ourselves some disservice by involving ourselves in such selfless act of gratitude that may end up unveiling the advantages that exists in the political flairs that differentiate these easterners from the rest of the country groups.

Please do not get me wrong, I dont aim to see them falter incessantly in the Nigerian political arena, but that I'd rather prefer we LEAVE them COMPLETELY to what their intuitions dictates to them on how good or bad politics is been played.

In fact, with all boldness & clearity, i say we dont mind what GOOD OR BAD results the nature of their politics has derived for them. ! OH YES. ![/b] . And to corroborate what was earlier explained, having to involve ourselves in a non-profitable act of "the good Samaritan" is tantamount to shooting ourselves on the foot, while even our own foot (the Yoruba political consciousness & solidarity) still has its own numerous ailments.

Whatever they have derived, are deriving, and will derive from their own way of interacting & integrating politically or even socially, please i crave your indulgences, should be of negligibe concern to you. As Yorubas who have been able to adapt ourselves to the polical climate of Nigeria, we know how much that has been to our benefit. Now making out an indirect exposure of the tasks involved in carving out such hard-earned gains is equally dismissing the very vital importance of our political advantages.

....BUT nice discuss BTW. !!!

iiichidodo: Nothing advantageous or continous to be of advantage sucking up to oligarchs who are well predisposed to dumping your political elites.To make matters worse,constant heckling and blackmailing at independent minded easterners to join the queue,something most sophisticated elements self style as 'bridge building', cannot help your situation.Stayin independent and throwing their lot to candidates who have gone on to win Presidential elections thus establishing the reputation of their bloc as something of strategic electoral value amongst the political class will suffice well enough as bridge building…for the igbos. We agree with these wholeheartedly,leave the igbos to their element of uncannyingly selecting those in the political atmosphere who will eventually become Presidents instead of constantly seeking to undermine their powers to such a diffuse thing as bridge building which most observers has seen that it has left the yorobars between the devil and the deep blue ocean Gbam!! Why clown around igbo interests when your house is on fire? Why concern yourself with igbos standin their own ground when thieffnubu is leading your people to slaughter?? Yorobar electoral value keeps diminishing every four years and thieffnubu isn't helping matters silting up yorobar space at the dining table.So why bother with the speck when you have a log already??Or maybe you see the igbos of strategic importance and but fail to brong yourself to it due to ego or just plain cowardice?! Gbam....We agree that having been led to the slaughter house by your elites the yorobars stand to gain or save political capital although in the dynamic fast paced scenes of the political gallery,such capital remains to be seen if it holds any much value,nothwistanding.
