Archbishop of Enugu Province, Anglican Communion, Most Rev, Emmanuel Chukwuma had scored Igbo leaders low for being self centered and selfish, saying that the leadership is in shambles.

The Bishop, who spoke, yesterday, in Enugu, while privately marking his 30th anniversary as Bishop at Bishop’s court, pointed out that until Ndigbo trust themselves and bring out somebody as their leader and trust him and he himself will know that a trust has been bestowed on him, “we cannot move forward.”

While regretting the “extreme marginalisation of South East from Nigeria”, Chukwuma, who thanked God for his mercies on him, urged national assembly members of Igbo extraction to come together in one voice and fight for a common cause to move forward.

The Igbo leadership is in shambles, they have not shown good leadership in the sense that this is the only area where people don’t appreciate leadership.

“We don’t have respect for the elders. The Hausa and Yoruba will have a leader and follow their leaders but Igbo, it’s difficult to really get a leader to follow because either followers don’t have the trust or the leaders themselves are self centered and selfish. That is the problem.

“Until we are able to trust ourselves and bring out somebody who is a leader and trust him and he himself knows that a trust has been bestowed on him and try to be firm and sincere, we cannot move forward.

“Look at the politicians from the southeast who called themselves leaders, they have never come together to discuss about southeast and together fight for it.

“They are speaking individually. They don’t even come to their constituency to ask questions. Many of us don’t even know them or see a House of Reps member coming to address us. It’s a shame.

“I glorify God today because I have legacies which I will be remembered with. I built a cathedral and bishop’s court in Bauchi and Enugu States respectively. I built St. Peter Cathedral in Gombe, hospitals and schools.

“I had a serious challenge when I was in Bauchi, when my church and parish house were burnt down by mobs. My security man was killed and many other properties were destroyed. That was when I started building a cathedral and bishop’s court at the same time because I was living in a rented house. It was a very great task on me but with the help of Gen. Danjuma, Gen. Useni and many of the Christian generals in the Army, I was able to accomplish it.

“In 1998, I was transferred to Enugu and was able get myself through from the conspiracy and challenges of achieving success by building a Bishop’s court, a cathedral and a congregation school “Bethel” at colliery quarters and created 12 Diocese which are under me.”

Don't mind him. This nature made us complexly unique and made us prosper individually without looking up to anybody.
Respect is earned and not meant for any oppressor.

The moment you people start to see the importance in leadership, the better for you.
Even if you realize your Biafra today but continue to live with the mentality of not fuvking with your leaders, you people will suffer.

Iamgrey5:
Shebi the bishop is from Ibadan

He is among the Chukumas of ibadan.

Yes na chukwuma na igbo man.. and what’s the op business with igbos?

He don’t have to sneaky about his intentions on this thread.

So let’s begin the tribal bashing without beating round ..
After all nairaland love igbo bashing thread.. promoting tribalism..

Let’s get dirty

Bayerebe’s

The Igbos are a great tribe, if only negativities can be shed off their mind.

My man, it's so easy to imagine oneself in great riches but realizing the riches in real life is very difficult.
It is good to dream.

Herdsmen:


Yoruba are wonderful tribe only if Negativities can be shed off their DNA..

Typical Yoruba boy!

Dan Bayerebe

I know when to reply trolls and when not to, your reply tells about sentiments living in your head, especially with that moniker.

Funny humans

Afonjaa!!!

U are not far from what d clergyman is saying, learn to listen to your elders, what he sees sitting down, if u climb the tallest tress, u won't see anything.

Cry me river
So you are oblivious of the fact that your brothers do the same thing.

What Republican nature?
A people that never evolved politically beyond the clan or umunna level?

By the way how Republican are Eri,Arochukwu, Oguta or Onitsha?

MetaPhysical:




Afonjaa!!!

Afonja don stale..

Bayerebe ... the northerners name for Yoruba descents

Yep

Yorubas have Tinubu and he gives leadership (good or bad)


Hausas have too many to count


But even Ekuweme, Ojukwu, while alive, had stiff opposition


No unity, no winning


When the king of many and the king of power meet, the king of many eventually wins (Sarkin yawa da sarkin karfi)

Ibo has no king. We are republicans.

We refuse to follow leadership, we are individualistic and dont care about collectivism.

Whenever a genuine and honest leadership emerge in Igboland we shall trust and support them but for now they are on their own.

You are jealous of our republican nature.

Afonjaa!!
