Politics / News On Tinubu by AfricaUnited: 7:38pm On Mar 24, 2021 |
Tinubu has not donated a dime to innocent, hardworking and longsuffering Yoruba whose businesses have been raised by many fire outbreaks in Yorubaland. But immediately there is a small fire outbreak in Northern Nigeria, especially the North West, he gives them billions. He wants to be president by all means. |

Education / American School Headmaster Vs African American Family Vs Nigerian Culture by AfricaUnited: 3:03pm On Mar 23, 2021 |
Copied from Facebook A White Headmaster was suspended by the School Board for making an African American student kneel down to apologize to his White Teacher in class. The student got home and told his mother what happened. The mother contacted the school and asked if it was standard practice to ask errant students to kneel down in contrition. The Headmaster replied no. So, the mom asked ‘’why did you make my son do so’’? The Headmaster replied that he did so because he learned it was the African way of apologizing from a Nigerian friend of his who had told him that’s how he disciplines his kids (�����). The Headmaster added that he also does it to his own kids at home when they misbehave. The woman was angry. ‘’We are not a Nigerian family’’ she said. ‘’We did not ask you to discipline our son this way’’. ‘’So, I do not see the correlation you are trying to make’’. The Headmaster was lost, as he had no answer to that. The woman is accusing the Headmaster of racism and slave master attitude and claims his son has been traumatized and now in therapy. A court case is brewing. Poor Nigeria just had to be dragged into this���� What do you think? |

Politics / The Igbo Is Like The US. True Or False? by AfricaUnited: 5:26pm On Mar 07, 2021 |
As quoted from Facebook. "The Igbo is like the US. True or False? The Igbo of Nigeria epitomize the trite saying "the best, the good, the bad, and the downright ugly". This past week an Igbo woman became the first woman in the world and first African of any gender to head the World Trade Organization in Geneva, Switzerland. Two other Igbo women won significant awards, one as doctor of the year in Maryland USA, and the other as "central banker" of the year by the Central Bank of Ireland. Those are the best and the good. The bad and downright ugly side of things are that one Igbo man was within this past week sentenced to death in Vietnam for drug trafficking and two in Ghana for kidnapping and murder. As an Igbo myself I have often compared the Igbo to the US, because the US also represents the best, but also some of the ugliest things in the world today. For example, the US gave us the internet and Facebook. But the police there can press your neck and murder you in broad daylight. Some other groups in Nigeria produce no good news; others produce no news at all; and others produce only bad news. But how could a people, the Igbo, so vaccilate between two such opposite extremes? The best and the downright ugly? That said, I am curious to see which path an Igbo-only country (example, Biafra) will chart among "the best", "the good", "the bad" and "the downright ugly". Will Biafra be a force for good or for bad, or will it continue to be the "US of West Africa"? If anything, it will surely be an interesting and eventful country, full of all sorts. God bless the Igbo." 5 Likes |

Politics / Still On The Food Blockade And Related Matters by AfricaUnited: 5:24pm On Mar 02, 2021 |
As seen on Facebook Still on the food blockade and related matters As long as cassava, plantain, rice, fish, salt, chicken, egg, palm oil, leafy vegetables, and fruits (oranges, pear, coconuts, banana etc) are not the North's exclusives, the South should be okay in the short and medium term. Anybody can become a farmer any day to grow tomato, onion, pepper, and beans, and to raise cattle. There is no rocket science in any of these. The North does not have what it takes to blackmail anyone. Same logic goes for other groups: My Igbo people cannot blackmail anyone else with motor spare parts business. Anybody can become a spare parts dealer any day. The Yoruba cannot blackmail anyone with anything. There is nothing they have that others don't have. The South South (mainly Delta, Rivers, Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom) can flex with their oil for now (although there is some in SE and SW). But soon, very soon, oil will be toast globally, and something else will take over. Whatever is coming to takeover from oil will depend on a large part on sound human resources. At the point that human intellectual capacity fully holds sway, only two regions (SE and SW) would be ready from the get-go to harness what they have been creating all these years. Others, particularly the NW and NE, would have to play catch up on that front. I love Nigeria. I would prefer a single country for all of us. However, it is either the country restructures and the nepotism and inequality stop, or people go their separate ways and form as many countries as possible. Many European countries are not as large as the individual regions in Nigeria, both in terms of land mass and population. Every region will be okay if they chart their own course as they deem fit. This is 2021, not the 1960s. |

Politics / APC Invited And Armed Foreign Fulani by AfricaUnited: 5:15am On Feb 17, 2021 |
Copied from Facebook "APC (aka Buhari) invited and armed Fulani from West Africa to make Nigeria ungovernable if Buhari lost the election in 2015. After the election, the alien Fulani refused to leave. And they have been told and still being told that the entire Nigeria belongs to them". "They are the bandits you hear of today". Abubakar Baraje...northern PDP Leader. The above statement makes a whole lot of sense as to why foreign Fulani are more powerful than Nigerian citizens. And the native Fulanis are largely silent. Non-Fulani Nigerians need to take a stand. 5 Likes |
Politics / Fulani Herdsmen, Their AK47s, And Igboland by AfricaUnited: 9:09am On Feb 16, 2021 |
Copied from Facebook There is zero evidence of cattle rustling in SE. No need for herdsmen having AK47 in SE. Articles published by Nigerian university researchers indicate practically all cattle rustling occur in northern Nigeria. Just google "cattle rustling in Nigeria". SE leaders should make their case against ARMED Fulani cattle rearers using data. This one is easy to make. 2 Likes |

Politics / See How Fulani Are Framing The Recent Events In Nigeria by AfricaUnited: 1:42am On Feb 08, 2021 |
Fulani are trying to frame what is happening in Nigeria as an attack against northerners in the south. They do this to make other northerners to support them. That is a FALSE framing of the events. Southerners must frame it correctly. It is a reaction to Fulani herders who steal land, rape women, kill farmers and destroy farms all over Nigeria. Non-Fulani northerners in the north are not spared by Fulani either. No society can tolerate that. That being said, let it be known that no Hausa, Kanuri, Tiv, Nupe, Idoma, Jukun, Berom, etc is under attack in the south. Infact, Fulani who are not engaged in the aforementioned criminal acts continue to live peacefully in the south. 4 Likes
