My people disgracing black people all over the world.

are my people cursed?

One thing about my people our mind boggling hypocrisy.
Make a post about Nollywood and our Yoruba boys will be calling it crap and claiming they don't watch it, now that "skull mining" epidemic is ravaging our crime infested yourubaland, we are blaming nollywood.
How can what we don't watch influence you?
I am not so proud of being a member of an ethnic group that can't take responsibility for failure of parenthood!

Don't blame her.
People who look like her are usually afraid of mirrors.

I am a Yoruba but I am not proud of being one right now.

I am not feeling fine

This is a huge loss as it will not be rebuilt in a jiffy because it is sparingly used.

Poster pls get employed. Stop wasting your productive years constituting public nuisance.

I see

I'm sure his former student whom he always told how he would have fixed the country 'if' he was allowed close to corridors of power will be watching in shock at his joining of the cabal to sing the usual song and asking is this the man we once knew. Discipline, honour and integrity and virtues difficult to keep.

Every year we Yorubas take a break from our accodation career and clash with them. Isn't that amazing?

My people!

The trial is illegal

BafanaBafana:
The ipob curse dey follow Jack

How sir? He is not the one who ECOWAS court ordered not to harass citizens who use twitter. He is not the one who is bearing the brunt. If only Nigerians will understand that the existence of Nigeria will soon cost them their use of social media, they'll have a sober reflection on whether Nigeria is worth it.

Leave the innocent boy alone or take him to court and let a lawyer defend him. Media prosecution is terrorism. What is wrong with our security agents?

I feel you have to learn how to communicate properly before venturing into that. How do you write all these without telling us the meaning of HMO?

My people, what is wrong with us?

This editorial is hateful. Southwest is peaceful and accommodating and we must maintain this virtue against all odds. We must forgive and forget the killings else our region will turn to borno.

My biggest fear about Ibos leaving.

Nobody should make this a tribal stuff. Not every Yoruba person is a hard drug dealer.

Just pursue your biafra in whichever way and stop advising the govt on its approach.

After all you want to achieve your biafra, so if the govt fails, it is a win win for you. So stfu and continue with your struggle while praying for the govt to use the military which you already know is a failure.

I'm not Ibo.

Biafrannuke:
Op Biafra is not only southeast.

both south east and south south are geopolitical zones located in the East of the southern Nigeria. Collectively, they are called southeast.

I want explain reasons why military option to security challenges in Nigeria especially, Biafran seperatism in the Southeast region will not end well for the Federal government.

Fighting in different frontiers Nigerian army is already engaged in a decade old war against terror in the north east. There is now Book haram, Isis and Iswap. They have surged downwards to Niger state, 2hrs to the country's capital. There are also well armed and deadly bandits in the Northwest. These groups have killed thousand of civilians and security forces and the FG is currently seeking for assistance at tackling them. As these fighters make gains, their numbers increase unlike the military. It will be a matter of a year or two for the army to be overwhelmed if it opens another frontier in the East.

Nigeria is broke, it's non state rivals are not The federal govt has other Responsibility apart from war, which is administration. But it can barely meet them. Nigeria has borrowed billions to finance capital projects little prospects of obtaining more loans. The military is presently said to be underfunded, while the govt plans to cut salaries and merge agencies to meet its obligations. Conversely, a group like IPOB is funded constantly by home and diaspora Ibos and has only one responsibility- defense. Remember the last Biafra was burdened with administration and defence but the IPOB spends almost all its money on defence while administration is left to Eastern governors. This can make a whole lot of difference.

Lack of International support Nigeria had heavy support from its allies during the first civil war. The British supported with arms, experts and media. Russia, Czechoslovakia etc supported with arms while the Arabs supplied arms and pilots. Nigeria also had thousands of mercenaries Niger and chad and the support of Cameroon which ensured the blockade of the Southeast border.
Today, the outlook is totally different. Nigeria's allies seem to be suspicious of the Federal govt true intentions. UK has rejected partnership with federal govt on 'security' while EU has asked the FG to 'look beyond' military solution in solving insecurity. US is showing red light with their blantant refusal to relocate African command while Israel has never hidden it's pro Biafran sentiment. Also note worthy is the Anglophone crisis that will limit Cameroon's role in containing their Southwestern border in event of conflict.

Minority Aparthy The last civil war was nearly prosecuted by the Northern minorities. Tiv, Igala, Nupe, Idoma etc Today the minorities are at best aloof. Fulani herdsmen have wrecked havok in the area, greatly diminishing the peoples trust in the Nigerian project. Some tribes are forming militias while some are even going for self determination. Their elders like Jerry gana and Theophilius Danjuma are outspoken against the Fulani agenda and the military role. It's difficult to believe hundreds of thousands from the middle belt will turn out within two weeks as they did in 1967 if the military demands.

Lack of Ideology People fighting for an ideology are difficult to beat because they can fight to death. Most freedom fighters fight for ideology but most Nigerian soldiers are paid and can run from battle. Freedom fighters form volunteers. Without leave nor retirement like regular army, they can only multiply and fight more passionately without getting paid. Moreover, this ideological leaning can penetrate the ranks of the Nigerian army. With the alleged deployment of only Northerners to orlu, it seems there is already grumbling among Ibo officers.

Why are my people now turning our barely peaceful region to Yemen?

The good news is we stopped hearing about them for the past few days. The bad news is that the attacks no longer make news because it has become 'normal'. In the last four days including yesterday they attacked four security formations and killed police and army officers.

my people and tribalism.

Why don't you call it 'deviance' instead of shortcomings?
Every functioning society has its workplace culture that works well for them. Our cultures if properly harnessed could lead to greater efficiency.

The govt doing the clampdown is also guilty of the crime against the masses.

No source?

Isn't this terror attack?
