She won't be deported as a Canadian citizen. She is messed up in the head though. I pity the husband a d kids who have the misfortune of living with her under same roof.
All you are seeing js the aftermath of the bitter politics played by the APC....
Did you really think that after harassing, killing, maiming and roughing up voters of igbo extraction in lagos coupked with the vile rhetoric during the election season last year the whole yoruba ronu movement
and emilokan politics that things will just "go back to normal"? what you are seeing esp on twitter is the fallout of that, and APC (Tinubu) takes the blame squarely for that
Inter ethnic relations damaged really much AFTER 2015 election cycle because ppl thought grabbing power by all means was the way to go
Once again, shut it !
What is the whole of southeast governors doing differently? They're all politicians with same selfish agenda.. not just them but 99.9% of politicians in Nigeria. The stadium filled to the brim with red caps during Kano governor inauguration. I ask, what has he done differently to Kano or its people. Same with the state I reside. The question is, why Igbos are taking this Obi thing to heart too much? It's pure foolishness! In 2015, Buhari the bastardizer . The northerners selfishly took Buhari candidacy to heart and succeeded in getting him there, but what is the aftermath. Every 4 year is election cycle. 2023 has passed and 2027 is just 2.5 year away..... The big question is, Why Igbos are letting 2023 election outcome affect their inter personal relationship with other people. Their fellow neighbours at home, place of work and at every day-to-day meeeting with people. That is pure stupidity.
Out of hate and anger, he jumped into people's comments using derogatory words that should place him on a life ban and when you give it back to him he starts ranting.
You ignored your sisters, hatred, bitterness only to tag me tribalist just like your Peter Obi tried to watered down the genocidal comment of your sister. You a hypocrite
The FIRST video right ABOVE shows another careless and garrulous man speaking. The hateful rhetorics being spewed by that lady in Canada echos or mirrors Ipob propaganda and influence on her because that is how the other females with Ipob affiliations that I have seen in video recordings also speak. The BBC's Global Disinformation Team also did an exclusive report on how some Ibo women living abroad (in places such as Italy, Asia, etc) with secessionist affiliations were spewing hate speech in online videos while calling for the outright beheadings and death of some prominent people in Anambra. These death threats were eventually carried out. The two BBC Weblinks and one other Weblink are right BELOW this paragraph. Second, in 2023, a male ipob member in two separate videos insulted the Oba of Benin and called Edo youths STUPID, USELESS, and uncircumcised including their Oba. When told by Edo folks online (and even some Delta State people) to apologize to the Oba, the Ipob member doubled down in a second video and insulted the Oba of Benin and Edo youths the more and it was totally unprovoked. Some of the inciting videos are still online and I have attached one of the video links (the second video) right after the first video ABOVE. Third, there was also another inciting video back in 2018 that was made by a light complexioned Ipob member insulting the Oba of Benin while casting aspersions on Ile Ife where he said the Oba came from or had ancestral connections. This led to a push back from Edo folks and the Bini Palace elders online and offline. There is a dangerous strand among some Ibos that lack complete decorum when speaking and hence tar other Ibo folks who just want to lead their normal lives in near-absolute peace.

Ipob: Biafra 'media warriors' call for killings on social media - BBC Africa
I have to NOW step right into this convo for the FIRST time ever so that things can be really put into proper historical perspectives with video EVIDENCE and dates. I'm a veteran of the Nigerian Civil War history and I have books in my home library written by combatants on both the Federal and rebel sides that I have had since the 1980s so as to gain proper perspectives of events. The GENESIS or ORIGINS of all these toxic hate speeches started off because of the loss of the July 1967- January 1970 Nigerian Civil War (which lasted for exactly 2 years and 6 months) and since then, some Ibo irredentists have repeatedly engaged in insults and the relentless use of toxic hate speech towards other Nigerian ethnic groups (offline from the 1979 Presidential election cycle right into the 1980s) and (online right from the 1990s) towards the Ijaws, Ikweres, Yorubas, Binis, Delta State ethnicities, Hausas, Fulahs, Kanuris, Tivs, Efiks, etc, who they accused of alleged betrayal over abandoned properties, and generally all prominent ethnic groups that featured as combatants in the Nigerian Armed Forces and civilian resistance towards the secession and encroachment on non-Ibo areas or lands of the defunct Old Eastern Region (WITHOUT a referendum being carried out) by Col. Emeka Ojukwu (rtd) on May 30, 1967. It's as a result of those unprovoked toxic hate speeches online and offline that other Nigerian ethnic groups started pushing back strongly at the attacks by some of the Ibo irredentists. The younger generation who were born in the 1990s and 2000s do NOT know the genesis of how this toxic hatred started because they were NOT born or they were babies then, but those of us who are older can tell you how these cyber bullying and hate speeches, laced with FAKE news started because we witnessed the birth and usage of the Internet back in the early 1990s and saw how this toxic hate speech gained momentum from the late 1990s right to the point when Massob was founded in Lagos State in 1999 by a lawyer, Ralph Uwazurike and intense hate speech and falsifications or embellishments of Nigeria Civil War history and other historical events and disinformation was taking place on those rabid Ibo-owned secessionist Websites in the early 2000s before even Nairaland was created and launched by Seun Osewa in 2005. I used to visit those secessionist Websites with an open mind to read some of what they were chatting about back in the early 2000s (to know what was going on) BUT I was stunned to know that there was high-level TOXIC mind control and brainwashing of the young ones going on in order to make them fit into a false historical narrative. These young ones were then used to push out fabricated stories or half-truths on other discussion forums such as X, FB, NL, YouTube, and more.
Even Ralph Uwazurike granted an interview in 2015 where he said he had to EXPEL Nnamdi Kanu from Massob because he was using the platform to spread a lot of TOXIC hate speech targeted towards others on his secessionist radio station that he recruited Nnamdi Kanu to handle from London in the 2000s.
Ralph Uwazurike was already a marked man under the former President Obasanjo administration. Starting in 2003, the Department of State Services [DSS], began to monitor him and got him arrested so he had to find a new approach using a secessionist radio station.
Kanu used Radio Biafra to spread a deeply sectarian and militant propaganda message, as he put it "β¦ Biafra or Death", often referring to Nigeria as a "zoo" that was destined to go up in flames. He ALSO CLEARLY solicited for "guns and bullets" in a video BELOW when he went to the U.S.
Nnamdi Kanu Solicited Guns To Fight Nigeria At World Igbo Congress
In a video that has since gone viral on social media, Nnamdi Kanu said of religious leaders from the South-West and North-Central of Nigeria's Yoruba ethnic group, βIt's always Yoruba people, head of Pentecostal, head of Catholic, head of Anglican. Hausas are killing us, Yorubas are sucking our blood."
βIf youβre attending a Yoruba church, you should be ashamed of yourselfβ, he continued. βAnybody attending a pentecostal church with a Yoruba pastor is an idiot, a complete fool, an slowpoke. They are worse than Boko Haram. If your pastor is Yoruba, you are NOT fit to be a human being.β
It was after Nnamdi was EXPELLED from Massob after a splinter group came into existence that he created Ipob in the early 2010s (2012) to continue the fabrication of history and relentless hate speech targeted at other ethnic groups..
The reason why the Yoruba and Ibo violent confrontations online is so pronounced is simply because both ethnicities have a much larger online presence due to overall population size than most Nigerian ethnic groups, so it's NOT surprising that Yoruba folks had to fight back easily at the falsehoods and fake memes being relentlessly spread online by younger Ibos such as the persistent LIE that Chief Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo, GCFR, SAN, "committed suicide by drinking rat poison" after planning a coup against Gen. Ibrahim Babangida which is one of the most ASININE LIES and insults ever fabricated online because Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo who was a lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) passed on peacefully and was given a national burial in 1987 being also a GCFR, with General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida and Ibo leaders such as Ojukwu himself greatly eulogizing Chief Awolowo, by calling him "the best President Nigeria never had."So, how did these young Ibo kids end up FABRICATING the FAKE story and online memes stating FALSELY that Awolowo "committed suicide" by rat poison? It was via those highly defamatory and toxic secessionist, propaganda Websites and blogs from the early 2000s. I was alive in 1987 when Awolowo passed on and witnessed the events of Awolowo's grand funeral in the media and I can say here and now that he was well eulogized by many Nigerian and world leaders who had worked with him back in the day.A second historical fabrication and LIE that I have been seeing online including on Nairaland is a fake meme being uploaded by younger Ibos showing General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida in military uniform calling Yorubas "cowards" in 1993. That is another CLEAR EVIDENCE of secessionist fabrication of history. IBB NEVER made such a comment either in English or Hausa languages and he's still alive at over 80 years of age (though recuperating on a wheelchair) to debunk that irresponsible lie. He is a man who has close friends among Yoruba folks and wouldn't insult the people he had as friends within and outside the military. When you tell a lie online and offline, you have to keep covering it with another BIG lie but you will be found out because there is ALWAYS a digital trail leading to the TRUTH.
The healing process has to start from within through self-forgiveness, self-acceptance, and self-love. Nobody is gonna do it for those Ibos who are still bitter about the past and have allowed themselves to be relentlessly manipulated via mind control methods by secessionist propaganda Websites and social media platforms to hate other ethnicities and play the highly offensive arrogance and victimhood like the guys in those videos above are doing because victimhood makes them feel good. Whether those who have allowed themselves to be used for bigotry and incitements will become self-aware and change from within is another thing entirely. Justice is key in any society. Forgiveness on all sides is key as well. Period.
P.S. Chinua Achebe in his last book that he wrote before he passed on has this to say about an "offensive" strand in contemporary Ibo behavior.
βI will be the FIRST to concede that the Igbo as a group is not WITHOUT its flaws. Its success can and did carry deadly penalties: the dangers of hubris, overweening pride, and THOUGHT LESSNESS, which invite envy and hatred or, even worse, than can obsess the mind with material success and dispose it to all kinds of crude showiness. There is NO doubt at all that there is a STRAND in contemporary Igbo behavior that can OFFEND by its NOISY EXHIBITIONISM and DISREGARD for HUMILITY and quietness.β - Chinua Achebe
Trustedpronet: The same benin people that voted 100% for peter obi in the 2023 presidential election. They should also check her, she might be on drugs.
Its nt really about obi. Its more about biafra and the push for its territories spanning into delta and benin. And also d unify igbo project meeting brickwalls in parts of delta and edo.
These Eboe women wey dey cause trouble, na Dem still dey find Yoruba men to marry. So after Dem fail to grab a Yoruba man for themselves, Dem now want kpai all Yoruba people. Which kind evil be this?
Probably because you People started the hate it is a full Circle which must run it's course even your inability to always be accountable for your actions and misdemeanor, blaming others for your actions and always crying victimization whereas you are the ones doing the Victimization baffles me some of your tribes Men are already blaming Apc party members that they are the ones that Used Her in faraway Canada as She be dummy nah
I think you missed the point which is whenever someone does anything wrong that person or persons should be dealt with according to the law irrespective of where the person is from.
Hope you all realize that the more you talk about this Amaka nonsense, the less we focus on: 1. Hunger 2. Lack of fuel, or super increased cost. 3. Kidnapping 4. Fulani herdsmen invasion of Nigerian farmlands. 5. Lack of electricity 6. No good roads
So, who benefits from this diversion of attention? Now, you can begin to see who is paying for the diversion. Thanks
Lies and propaganda are everywhere! Everyone is up in arms about the alleged threat against the Benin and Yoruba people not minding that worse threats had been directed at the Igbos in the past and are still being directed at them. Still, none of these MOFOS ever spoke up against them. To show how ignorant and stupid these folks are, a simple Google search on the name Amaka Patience Suinnberger would have put the whole kerfuffle in perspective.
A simple Google search would reveal that other than the millions of articles related to these alleged threats, there are absolutely NO digital footprints on the name. It's unlikely that someone who lives in the West (Canada), is active online, has a job, and has no digital footprints on the internet. That's NOT possible. So, this tells you that the name is FAKE and besides the accent is definitely NOT Igbo on CLOSER analysis but that's beside the point.
And when you look at the Tiktok account, the user name which we know that people use made-up names, says, Anyi_Anambra7 but the real name is, @ehizele123. When you do a Google search on "Ehizele," you get so many hits and the name is popular among the people of Benin, who were surprisingly and coincidentally, I might add among the people threatened in the now deleted Tiktok video.
Not that I support violence or threat of violence against any group, but it's apparent that Nigerians are the MOST lying and hypocritical people on this earth. Nigerians including your House of Representative members, civic organizations, bloggers, Adike Bagiri, Nigerian organizations in the diaspora, polithiefcians, etc have NOT only heard but witnessed threats against the Igbos.
These threats were NOT only from street urchins and sewage dwellers in the likes of Oluomo but from other Yoruba people like Remi Tinubu, the Oba of Lagos, and many others. The silence of these folks was deafening, to say the least. But when the threat was directed against others, they found their voices.
I say, to hell with all of them! Let me remind them that NO one person or ethnic group has a monopoly on violence. These people moaning and groaning now were the same folks on the TikTok platform with South Africans and inciting them to violence against the Igbos but as always they NEVER saw anything wrong with that. Enough said!

deflection that's all you are doing
it does not change what APC lagos branch did and the aftermath
In the end it was part of the reason I japa because they kidnapped my daughter and would enter my home without evidence of theft meaning they had other motives.
Then the cleaner said they poisoned his food hence he had to go hide in Togo where he is from so I added 2 and 2 together since I had fallen ill in 2020 and developed mobility issues by the time I got into the uk I was transferred to the hospital and was unresponsive for 4 days. I continue to be on the mend
ecolime: She said, βIt is time to start poisoning the Yorubas and the Benin. Put poison in all your foods at work. Put poison in all your water so that you all will begin dying one after the other. This kind of hatred I have for you people will last forever. In all your foods, I will put Otapiapia. If you have a means of killing them, kill them out of the way, because they are too foolish. They are of no use to society. Lots of prostitutes and everything"
How can a human being with flesh and blood have this level of bitterness and hatred?
An educated person and a mother at that. If an enlightened person living in Canada can reason this way, then it's scary what a local bigot can do if opportuned.
I am also sure she is a Christian and claims she loves Christ.

Hausas are killing us, Yorubas are sucking our blood."
βIf youβre attending a Yoruba church, you should be ashamed of yourselfβ, he continued. βAnybody attending a pentecostal church with a Yoruba pastor is an idiot, a complete fool, an slowpoke. They are worse than Boko Haram. If your pastor is Yoruba, you are NOT fit to be a human being.β
It was after Nnamdi was EXPELLED from Massob after a splinter group came into existence that he created Ipob in the early 2010s (2012) to continue the fabrication of history and relentless hate speech targeted at other ethnic groups..
The reason why the Yoruba and Ibo violent confrontations online is so pronounced is simply because both ethnicities have a much larger online presence due to overall population size than most Nigerian ethnic groups, so it's NOT surprising that Yoruba folks had to fight back easily at the falsehoods and fake memes being relentlessly spread online by younger Ibos such as the persistent LIE that Chief Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo, GCFR, SAN, "committed suicide by drinking rat poison" after planning a coup against Gen. Ibrahim Babangida which is one of the most ASININE LIES and insults ever fabricated online because Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo who was a lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) passed on peacefully and was given a national burial in 1987 being also a GCFR, with General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida and Ibo leaders such as Ojukwu himself greatly eulogizing Chief Awolowo, by calling him "the best President Nigeria never had."So, how did these young Ibo kids end up FABRICATING the FAKE story and online memes stating FALSELY that Awolowo "committed suicide" by rat poison? It was via those highly defamatory and toxic secessionist, propaganda Websites and blogs from the early 2000s. I was alive in 1987 when Awolowo passed on and witnessed the events of Awolowo's grand funeral in the media and I can say here and now that he was well eulogized by many Nigerian and world leaders who had worked with him back in the day.A second historical fabrication and LIE that I have been seeing online including on Nairaland is a fake meme being uploaded by younger Ibos showing General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida in military uniform calling Yorubas "cowards" in 1993. That is another CLEAR EVIDENCE of secessionist fabrication of history. IBB NEVER made such a comment either in English or Hausa languages and he's still alive at over 80 years of age (though recuperating on a wheelchair) to debunk that irresponsible lie. He is a man who has close friends among Yoruba folks and wouldn't insult the people he had as friends within and outside the military. When you tell a lie online and offline, you have to keep covering it with another BIG lie but you will be found out because there is ALWAYS a digital trail leading to the TRUTH.
The healing process has to start from within through self-forgiveness, self-acceptance, and self-love. Nobody is gonna do it for those Ibos who are still bitter about the past and have allowed themselves to be relentlessly manipulated via mind control methods by secessionist propaganda Websites and social media platforms to hate other ethnicities and play the highly offensive arrogance and victimhood like the guys in those videos above are doing because victimhood makes them feel good. Whether those who have allowed themselves to be used for bigotry and incitements will become self-aware and change from within is another thing entirely. Justice is key in any society. Forgiveness on all sides is key as well. Period.
P.S. Chinua Achebe in his last book that he wrote before he passed on has this to say about an "offensive" strand in contemporary Ibo behavior.
βI will be the FIRST to concede that the Igbo as a group is not WITHOUT its flaws. Its success can and did carry deadly penalties: the dangers of hubris, overweening pride, and THOUGHT LESSNESS, which invite envy and hatred or, even worse, than can obsess the mind with material success and dispose it to all kinds of crude showiness. There is NO doubt at all that there is a STRAND in contemporary Igbo behavior that can OFFEND by its NOISY EXHIBITIONISM and DISREGARD for HUMILITY and quietness.β - Chinua Achebe
Stop being petty. Bayo is playing bad politics while this ugly looking woman is calling for direct poisoning of Yoruba and bini people. Grandson didn't call for poisoning of Igbo people neither did Bayo. Stop supporting evil because the more you do the more you are breeding horrible humans among you and ultimately make Igbo land a danger zone. Stop it. [/quo
