My Experience In The East by ScamHunter: 8:25am On Oct 17, 2022
You won't know the impact of the agitation against marginalization of the Igbo until you visit the East. I was somewhere in the town where I grew up and the first thing I noticed was that the police station in the area no longer exists. Learnt it was taken out by UGM. One of our neighbors, a lady that owned a shop about a kilometer from the station died from stray bullet the same day the station was burnt down.

I left the city for the village and one family at the village told me that a policeman, a native of the village has been missing for 6 months plus. What's weird is that no one knows his whereabout, not even the police. All they know is that he was assigned to an escort duty to a VIP and the man just disappeared. Another police officer that lives in the village, Yoruba man is dead. His own case is even better than the other since his family saw a body.

Also, the closest police station to my home in the village has been burnt down. When they were narrating the story to me, i actually thought they were talking about a filling station close by before I remembered that the UGM phenomenon is all across the Igbo nation.

It's obvious that what's happening in the East is either terror or asymmetrical warfare, systematically eliminating security agents. I've been wondering why the government cannot work on negotiating a settlement. Who knows how many policemen, soldiers and non-combatants have been killed. It's just a matter of time for people to become scared of joining any of these and the East becomes a wild West.


With BH in NE, UGM in the SE, armed militants in the SS, bandits in the NW and ISWAP in NE and SW, the country may be sitting on a keg of gunpowder.

I also think that the government should release Kanu. He seems to be the only one the people are ready to listen to. And yes, Obi is the right person considering he's an Igbo and understands what the agitation is about. He has also said he's going to negotiate with IPOB, that's a good idea.

This is beyond Obi the coward. He fled PDP. Tinubu stood his ground and won the APC ticket because even the kinsmen of Buhari recognise the power and influence of Tinubu and his ethnic group.

Only Tinubu, because of his political sagacity and formidable support base, can implement the fundamental changes Nigeria needs to become a progressive and successful nation.

So terrorist should kill all the people in the East and one-third of security agents because"government can't negotiate with terrorists". By the way, they negotiated with Boko Haram and has been granting them amnesty. Perhaps northern terrorism is more negotiable.

Kanu is nothing. A mere fly. What all Nigerians should accept is responsibility for their own lives and progress at regional level.

If you Igbos are wise you would support the leader with the sagacity, universal authority and political backing to deliver what is shown below that we all know will be resisted vehemently by those who will eat Obi up and spit his bones out.

Tinubu is the only politician who can deal with very powerful and solidly entrenched enemies of Nigeria's progress.

There's a guerilla warfare going on in the South East. This war tactics is difficult for State actors because the insurgents know where and when to strike government forces but the government forces do not know who the non-state actors are. However, operations carried out by government forces from time to time destroy entire communities and snatch the lives of both active and passive secessionists.

Losing members of the Nigeria police force and the Nigerian Army on a daily basis is tragic but not as painful as losing young civilian men who otherwise had a brighter future ahead if the civil unrest never started.

The biggest losers are not those who understood and signed the career path of 50% survival and 50% death. The biggest losers are the parents, wives and children of the natives with a gloomy future trailing the demise of their breadwinners in a needless secession conflict.

No reasonable person supports a crooked heroine dealer like Tinubu as their leader. Nigerians have already rejected him everywhere. The last that will still reject him are you Yoruba Muslims.

Pointing out that Nigeria is unfair does not make you clever. We all know that.

Yet, what smart folks should focus on is a leader, specifically from the South, that is powerful and authoritative enough to make Nigeria more fair for us all.

If you are not dishonest you will admit to yourself that this is not Obi.

Only Tinubu ticks all the boxes but you IPOBians are so consumed with hate for Yorubas you cannot even see that this is a time you should support Jagaban, for your own benefit., rather than Obi who would be a powerless puppet 100%.

If people in the east are working on killing themselves without thinking about any development that will come towards their area then they are on their own. If they are being given Biafra today another civil war will happen among them take it or leave it.
East is becoming a war zone and their people are in support of the killings.
Let them continue throwing stone to the market and see if it won't hit their people.
I rest my case

Lol. Who will support the East and specifically Peter Obi the biggest coward in Nigerian leadership today?

The entire universe witnessed Obi's cowardly show recently when he fled PDP to avoid Atiku, a Dubai resident, and Tambuwal etal.

Maybe you should remind us who Tinubu defied and stood up to enroute to winning the APC ticket.

Those realities shows serious-minded Nigerians the leader we need for the Nigerian 'rescue mission- that is not for cowards, weaklings, political loners and divisive charlatans.

Not even the Waffen SS had the capacity to kill all the Jews in Europe as much as they wanted. Don't forget that these guys had only flags when the government started killing them. They now have guns. Tomorrow, they may acquire more. And when you kill passive secessionists what happens? More borderline secessionists join the ranks of arm welding killers. Have you wondered why ISWAP and BH do not show your military mercy when they capture them? It's the same reason that American soldiers don't show the Waffen SS mercy despite the Geneva Convention.

With the Eastern monster eating up your military which is not known for exploit aside with unarmed combatants, how long will they survive? A friend of mine whose brother is a security agent posted to Borno told me the young man is dead. Are soldiers in limitless supply?

So far, only Anambra has made a paltry fdi inflow, the rest of Igbo states got zilch fdi so that is their own business; ruin their own land because their parents failed to raise them to be respectful , upright and patriotic.

The problem is that there is japa of Igbo into Yorubaland. This year so far, I know about 6 Igbo who have moved over to Lagos to start life.

We keep accommodating our Igbo brethren but this accommodation is temporary measure because these Igbo we host keep going back home to bring more of their kith and kin to escape violence and poverty in Igboland and if this influx is not monitored may put Yorubaland in serious security risks like we experienced when unpatriotic and bigoted igbos sympathetic to ipob terrorist group burnt our city in 2020.

SW states must take the state registration card more serious like we are doing in Lagos.
Everyone especially outsiders fleeing to the SW must be documented and monitored. Only well trained , respectful, patriotic and talented Igbo fleeing Igboland should be encouraged to settle in Yorubaland before we bring in the dregs and those Asari Dokubo blamed for rendering Igboland desolate and barren.

Policemen are worstly hit and the bulk of them are from the South East. If you are versed with knowledge of the internal organisation of the police force, you'd know that the ratio of natives versus Outsiders serving in a Geo-political zone is 80:20.

Also, the 20 percent of the outsiders serving in a State's division are mostly high ranking officers and the least likely to be hit.

https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/412122-how-10000-newly-recruited-constables-will-be-deployed-police.html

It means that for every 100 police officers killed, 80 of them are likely to be Igbos while 20 of them will be outsiders.

The casualty suffered by the Nigerian Army in the South East from the inception of the unrest are less than 100. Officials of the Nigerian Airforce and Naval officers killed are less than 20 combined. More policemen, vigilante and civilians tagged as saboteurs have died in the hands of the unknown gunmen.

Igbo is barren land, yet you'd die than see Igbo exit Nigeria. Isn't because you are the leech, a parasite living off Igbo? I know how your people beg Igbo just to get the Igbo money in Lagos not to talk of rural Yoruba states. Take back seat. Only a parasite enjoys a relationship that benefits it, so between Igbo who want ro leave and Yoruba begging to stay in the same country with Igbo, it's obvious the parasite is the Yoruba.

Go and fight Asari Dokubo for calling Igboland barren. My point is that Yorubaland can not give unmonitored influx of Igbo into Yorubaland again after you guys burnt Lagos.

Only quality Igbo will bring value to Yorubaland. The evil , rude, lazy and hateful lot should stay back in Igboland with the parents who failed to train them.

SW is not a rentseeking container economy so there is no way the hosts need Igbo money more than they need their own money. All we want to attract are the good and talented Igbos , not hateful bigoted and unpatriotic Igbo

I cannot fight Asari Dokubo, but you who thrive on divide and rule. Everyone in SE and SS knows that it is you, the Yoruba Muslim that is the biggest enemy of the South. Why are you crying that your Fulani master isn't supporting your drug lord after betraying all of the South? Hoping for disunity between SE and SS is a pipe dream. In this election, only you Yoruba muslims will vote Tinubu. No one else.

Why do you want "quality Igbo" in Yoruba land if not that you cannot survive without Igbo? I go to Lagos markets and see your Yoruba Muslims begging just to get money from the Igbo you love to hate. What i expect from you is support Igbo exit from Nigeria, then any Igbo in Yorubaland should be seen as a foreigner.

Why are you so hell bent on deceiving yourself like this? Or you think all of us here don’t know about the delegates and dollars rains during APC and pdp’s primaries?
