What's the point of exaggerating the minor negative side which had been proven to even be more pronounced in other groups, while trying as hard as possible to diminish our numerous positive sides?

Why is it too convenient for him(he knows himself) to quickly wave off attempts to show him that the so called Igbo negative sides are found even more in other groups, but to hard to get him to ignore that of Ndiigbo for a minute?
Go through his Obi1kenobi moniker, all he had ever done since his presence in NL is to try and demonize Ndiigbo.
If you are going to offer criticism, be sure to have been seen to have offered lots of praises. That's the difference between constructive and destructive criticism.

If you're jobless enough to go through my posting history, I have sparred with just about every notorious anti-Igbo Yoruba moniker plenty of times here. I reserved the silliness (of smearing me to be what I'm not) to some of the smaller minded trolls of the site. I thought you were better than that but clearly not. I have been claimed to be all sorts of monikers on here for years. Some weeks ago, one claimed I'm laudate. The amusing thing is how clever the claimants feel announcing their discovery, with no self-awareness as to just how comical they look.

Yes, I am more critical about Igbos than I am other groups. This is especially because I care more about Igbos than other groups. Just as I'm more critical of my family and expect more from them than outsiders. There is a subtle difference between patriotism and nationalism. The former is self-reflective and self-critical and is a product of sincere devotion and a desire for self-improvement. The latter is self-aggrandizing, and boastful, and myopic and altogether darker. Many Igbos here, especially my Anambra kin, are more of the latter. Crude exhibitionism and mindless chestbeating all the time. You would try to push the notion that all groups are the same, but they aren't. I think Fulanis for example are a uniquely blood-thirsty group in Nigeria. Yet, every Fulani I encounter on social media pose as the victims of regular provocation and would never admit any violence is their fault. They never seem to ask themselves why they are the only ones warring with every community they share with others. But they believe it's always someone else fault. Igbos are uniquely famed among Nigerian groups for an abrasive arrogance that rubs others the wrong way. Like the Fulani example, people like you never seem to ask yourself why others harbour such an impression about Igbos: doesn't matter whether it's Northerners, Middle Belters, Yorubas, South-South ethnicities, even Igboid groups (and even among Igbos, Anambrarians have the reputation). At best, you'd claim it's simply because of "jealousy" (like your absurd comments about Aniomas the other day). Yet you don't see to ask yourself why Yorubas, the most accomplished tribe in Nigeria (argue with your ekuke) don't seem to attract this level of animus from other groups. Achebe himself would assert this when he said "...Nigerians would come to no common consensus other than their common hatred for the Igbo man...". There is blame to go around, but plenty of that blame boils down to the uncouth, brash arrogance of many Igbos and their supremacist rhetoric.

If it makes you feel better to believe I'm some "afonja" or whoever posing as an Igbo man, that's your prerogative. It's a losers argument though. You'd be better of sticking to calling me an efulefu as you've always done. Calling me afonja or whatever would not change a hair on my head. I'd still wake up tomorrow the son of an Oraukwu man and Agulu woman regardless what some anonymous comedians on the internet decide to call me.

Thanks bro, you are very smart and intelligent, I guess he is the same with the moniker you just replied and hammer6F his objectives are demonizing and dividing Igbos his major target is Anambra you need to be smart to know his antics towards Igbos, he is from Ogun state, not just nairaland even other social media platforms and some of our people are so naive to see through...

I wish to reiterate again that the Ikwerres do not have any present or future intention of joining any Igbo Union of whatever makeup.

I advise that Igbos should seek unity from amongst themselves and avoid adding dissenting ethnicities to their fold.

Igbos should be guided at all times.

Yet again, i remain the HOPE AT HAND.

See what they do here to divide Igbos

Send dirty pictures of all states, claiming Imo to curse Anambra. They claimed Enugu to curse Anambra yesterday, claiming that no Enugu man is important to cause a fight between the two peaceful state. They do this on all Igbo states. (To cause trouble between Igbo states)

They tell multiple stories of people they met in the bus,train, plane and in the middle of the sea cursing Igbos and claiming igbo are stealing from them. (To cause hate between SS igbos and SE igbos )

They yab ojukwu, Okpara, Nnamdi KANU, Obiano , Gburugburu and all high ranking igbos and accuse them of being docile and weak.

They call Ekweremadu a criminal

They claim we have no link to Jews

They do all these to scatter any interest of investors to the east.

Sorry, dear, but no one but Igbos are causing the division among Igbos. Our national psyche is hardwired to combust in such a manner. If you spend all your time chestbeating to outsiders and telling yourselves how you're like a master race of niggas and gods gift to humanity, at a stage, that bitter divisiveness would be channeled inwards. I know you feel the same deep shame I feel when you have people from Anambra and Enugu and Imo and Abia and Ebonyi (and it's always Anambra and somebody else) squaring off with the same rhetoric as Igbos and Yorubas often do here. Not being able to overcome that shame, you seek to blame it on ghosts with conspiracy theories. The reality is a number of sick Igbos are the ones who cause the division. If you choose to chase ghosts rather than addressing the real roots of the problem, you're doomed to keep chasing the imaginary ghosts you've made up in your head.

Wow.... You must really have investigated who I and what my mission is. How incredible! Incredibly stupid.

When next you want to play sidekick to your "encyclopedia", be careful to know who he is actually dealing with.

Nnamdi Kanu, Aguiyi Ironsi and Michael Okpara are my kinsmen. Figure that out and stop disgracing yourself here.

Let’s do an experiment here, and as the nearest Anambra man here, we're going to use you as a lab rat grin

How many times have you stood outside on your balcony to chestbeat and remind all other Nigerians of how you are so much wiser, richer, stronger and handsome than them? How many times have you called out an ebonyi or Abia man on the street and tell him he's worthless? Have you ever cursed an Enugu man or call him 3rd class to his face?

Awaiting your response grin
