Deadlytruth: I would answer you this way: The single most consistent test of IQ in Nigeria today is the standardized tests for university entrance and others like it in Nigeria. Why do Igbo states have higher cut-off marks than other non-Igbo states? Answer this first. You have no idea how much damage forced unity had done to the igbo in Nigeria. Someone said earlier that Nigeria exists solely to stop Igbo from exercising FULL SELF DETERMINATION, hence self actualization - maximizing self expression (of intelligence). Imagine a country that contains Israel, Jordan, Iran, Lebanon etc. And in that country, all that non-Israel nations (who obviously have more population when combined) obsess about is how to make sure that Israel never emerges, or Jews never fully express their God-given potential. That is exactly what is happening to the Igbo in Nigeria. For a very brief moment when Igbo enjoyed full sovereignty and autonomy, didn't you see what they produced? In fact what they produced frightened some guys in Europe who said that they don't want "another Japan in Africa". That is the point. 2 Likes |

Deadlytruth: As for Ironsi, you people didn't even allow him to stay in office for more than 6 months. Till today, only intellectually challenged people would believe the story being bandied about Ironsi. It is like judging Enerst Shonekan. Ironsi and Shonekan are in the same class. Give an Igbo man 4 years (never mind 8 years) and see whether he won't transform Nigeria beyond the usual black man's level. I don't want to get into the Ironsi story because it is the usual strategy you people use to change the subject and derail threads like this one. You can believe whatever you want about Ironsi, and I won't argue over it. 2 Likes |

babasolution: The thing is that the people SERIOUSLY marginalizing the Igbo in Nigeria are not from the middle belt. Even military leaders from the middle belt (like IBB) didn't marginalize the Igbo. I will name names: Muhammadu Buhari is a typical element of the "school" of Igbo marginalizers in Nigeria. Use him as a template to locate others. The man was/is so anti-Igbo that he couldn't even allow himself to organize an election that an Igbo man was predicated t to win. Every opinion poll before the elections pointed to an Obi victory, but Buhari and his cohorts rigged the election to prevent that. This is a historical fact. Like I said, we know who has been marginalizing us in Nigeria. Maybe your people sef and Igbo are in the boat! ![]() |

onumadu:How will you be able to get the Ironsi issue when you don't understand how important the adherence to the constitution is in genuine nation building. Ironsi tampered with a sovereign and truly people's constitution thus sparking off a constitutional crisis which consumed him and sparked off a war. Comparing Ironsi with Shonekan is at best dubious because Shonekan was more of a figurehead civilian while Ironsi was a military despot who had raw power and authority in his hands.

onumadu: This propaganda has been peddled by you Igbos for long and have successfully used it to hoodwink the ignorant Nigerians into believing it is a policy deliberately targeted to pull Igbo race down when in actual fact it is a fall out of the failure of the governors of the Igbo states in educational development of their region. Take a look at the content of the link below https://www.statista.com/statistics/1268440/number-of-primary-schools-in-nigeria-by-state/ You would observe that the SE states have the lowest state government owned primary and secondary schools in Nigeria relative to their population. This therefore causes a situation whereby most Igbo kids can't find admission placement in secondary schools in their home states and therefore have to burden the other regions and the FG unity schools more than every other region. This is the simple reason why the FG therefore jacks up the cut off mark for applicants from Igbo states. It is therefore more of a statement that governors of Igbo states have failed to build schools for to their people than the alleged deliberate ploy by the Nigerian system to hold down Igbos. It is a matter of simple Economic principle of price increase when demand outweighs supply. I know you will not open the link hence I have attached the screenshots below. You can see states like Anambra, Abia, Ebonyi at the rock bottom of the table as against states like Lagos, Oyo and even some Northern states like Kaduna and Bauchi at the top spots. onumadu: Unfortunately for you, all records in the annals of history prove clearly the fact that the forced unity was the handiwork of Igbos who had assumed that Nigeria was their to dominate. Remind me the tribe of Azikiwe who killed all motions for secession clause. Also remind me of the tribe of Aguiyi Ironsi who promulgated the Anti-secession Decree. Remind me of the tribe of Ojukwu who crushed Isaac Boro's Niger Delta Republic quest. onumadu: According to Abraham Lincoln, nearly every man has the capacity to withstand adversity, but if you want to know the weaknesses of a man, give him power ' The first part of this quote makes it clear that necessity is the mother of invention meaning that being inventive in a time of great need for survival is not really a mark of intelligence. In biology, we learned about the principle of adaptation which even lower and unintelligent animals practice to survive in times of existential threat and extremely harsh conditions. The real test of Intelligence thus IQ is how inventive you are in a time of peace and comfort. This is what keeps America at the top of the world power table as America votes so much money for research and their scientists are always in the laboratory even in time of no visible external threat to their country.

Oriental4: But at the same time those very people were routing for a man whom they themselves once described as a huge failure of governance in Anambra. So it wasn't about intelligence but about seeking their turn to rule Nigeria. And if anything, Obi's tenure as Anambra governor can't be compared with Tinubu's as Lagos governor. Peter Obi invested Anambra funds to buy the shares of a brewery which thereafter plummeted in value and causing over 80% capital erosion while Tinubu at the same time invested Lagos funds in Airtel which thereafter recorded over 300% capital appreciation. It clear that the one who made a very bad investment decision is the less intelligent. Then Peter Obi gave out so many false and bogus statistics. So we actually dodged a bullet. And come to think about it, you don't even need to be an economist to know that Peter Obi's decision to invest public funds in brewery business is a very unintelligent decision. Here are the reasons: 1. Those who drink bear in any population are usually of a very small percentage in the range of 10 to 15% , and that even among the few who drink, only about one third of them are really able to afford it from their pockets hence they are always at the mercy of their fellow drinkers who are generous enough to buy for them. In essence therefore, beer manufacture does not really generate revenue from the larger population composed of women and children and those men who don't drink. An intelligent governor should have rather invested in the manufacture of soft drinks and biscuits which are far cheaper than beer, are eaten by over 80% of the population, even children and babies can easily afford it from their own pockets thus a good revenue stream for government, lower cost of production than beer, etc. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Deadlytruth: The bolded is a total opposite of the true quote: The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. -Martin Luther King, Jr. I add to it that the real test of intelligence is how inventive and resilient a person can be when he is under bombardment 24/7 and when he had no assurance of the next meal (because the enemy was violating all known and unknown laws of war and conventions). Under such crucible, the Igbo-dominated nation shocked their enemies with many inventions. You keep sidestepping the issue of autonomy, but I won't let you change the subject. .. Why had there not been even a fully functioning international airport and seaports where goods and persons can go DIRECTLY NONSTOP to and from Igboland since the end of the war? What are you people afraid of? It is like tying your boxing opponent's hands and legs before declaring the fight on, and then you turn around to accuse him of claiming to be a better fighter after you've landed some blows on him. Duh ... you tied his hands and feet first!

You had to rig it. Forget about the so called "unity schools"; what about JAMB and university entrance nko? Shouldn't all Nigerians be tested purely based on intelligence? Why single out Igbo states to require higher cut-off marks? Until you allow EVERY Nigerian to have the same cut off marks for university entrance, I will continue to say that Igbo are BY FAR more intelligent than others with lower cut-off marks.

Re: Ibos Have No Right To Claim They Are The Japan Of Africa by Deadlytruth(m): 7:12am On Mar 19 |
onumadu: Martin Luther King was a sociopolitical activist while intelligence is more of a biological trait hence a sociopolitical activist's view of a biological concept can't be valid. All biological principles show clearly that any living organism becomes relatively more inventive when faced with an existential threat, and the inventiveness naturally abates when that existential threat is removed. Therefore genuine inventiveness is a measure of intelligence in time of peace and safety when there is no compelling quest for survival. The issue of autonomy you are harping on is actually against you because a people who genuinely believe that they would have excelled under autonomy would not have maintained a conspiratorial and criminal silence when all other regions were in the streets in demonstration against Ironsi's Unification Decree which was clearly going to kill autonomy. This is simple logic. On the issue of seaport in Igbo land: does any Igbo State have access to the sea directly? If so, why couldn't Michael Okpara build one at that sea access point during the time you enjoyed the very autonomy you claim would have taken you to heaven on earth? On the issue of presidential election; so the Igbo man would have won an election after openly calling it a religious war to the hearing of core Northern state voters who have the highest voter turn out and are passionately of a religious persuasion opposite that of the Igbo candidate who so declared? If the Igbo man was going to win as you claim, then implicitly you are also claiming that majority of Nigerians masses loved him and actually vote for him. Is that not a self contradiction to your propaganda that other Nigerian ethnicities hate Igbos and deliberately don't want them to rule? For JAMB and University entrance, you need to ask yourself whether state owned universities in the SE admit non-SEasterners as much as SEasterners are admitted into state owned universities outside their regions. Then per, federal government owned universities, the same explanation for unity schools holds. Most states in the SS and SW were ahead of Igbo states in founding their own universities. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Deadlytruth: You've not said anything to prove the Europeans, the Americans or Google wrong. European countries said the Igbo would become a Japan in Africa. The Americans say Igbos are the most intelligent African tribe. Google, an European company in the United States say Igbo are the most intelligent black tribe on earth. In Nigeria, the Nigerian government demands Igbo children score as high as 160 for an exam other tribes need to score as low as 6. Yet Igbo children are always leading in the most transparent national exams that provide level ground such as JAMB and WAEC. So it just you making unsuccessful attempt to change facts which you can't do even given 1000 lifetimes. Since it's proven that Igbo are the smartest tribe in Africa, the question you should be struggling with is why the Igbo couldn't stop the British conquest of the Igbo country since they were the most intelligent African tribe in a position to have done so. Arguing against fact points to the low intelligence attribute of some African tribes which is partly responsible for the position of blacks on earth today. So please stick to the topic of why Igbo could not stop the British. I know it's a bit too academic for a Nairaland discussion. |

EbinPawaGovt: That report is about academic performance, and of course since Igbos have few schools in their home states back in Nigeria, it is natural that they would have the highest Nigerian population of international students in the US and therefore have the highest percentage of blacks doing well in academics in US schools. Is this too difficult to understand? When someone is genuinely of innate intelligence, you should be able to see the results around him and in the endeavours he undertakes. Go to the South East, the Igbos' home region, and see for yourself how squalid and undeveloped it is there generally. Igbos are the only ethnicity group in Nigeria who have more of its natives in other regions than in their own region. That is not a hallmark of intelligence. Secondly, an intelligent people are usually organized, civilized m, decent in attitude etc. One of the most important traits of intelligence is the ability to correctly predict the likely outcome of an action or decision one is about to take and therefore apply restraint if necessary. On that note Igbo political leaders can't be said to be intelligent as all the positions and decisions they took on important national questions ended up ruining the Igbo race. Examples are as follows: 1. The decision to enter into a governing coalition with NPC thus giving power to the most educationally backward people to pioneer governance in a new country seeking to find its foot in good governance. 2. Deciding to go into a political partnership that would give absolute political power to the very section of the country where their own brothers had experienced two pogroms without any justifiable reason. 3. Believing that a bloody coup was the best solution to resolve mere political differences among politicians among whom there are no permanent friends or enemies. 4. Declaring a war and relying on hurriedly recruited teenage boys with sticks and cutlasses for weapons against a well trained Nigeria Army armed with the state of the art firearms. 5. Believing that a country of over 300 tribes could be successfully governed by a strong centre hence the campaign for one-Nigeria by Igbos. Then above all, your well known claim that the coupists (who were mostly Igbos) did the coup with the ultimate intention to bring Awolowo to power because they adjuded him as the only non-mediocre among all the political class, is an indictment of this alleged Igbo intelligence.

nisai: No my friend. I'm actually having a good time and you cannot possibly derail the thread since you're too late and we've already gained valuable insights. In fact, I need low IQed personalities like you to keep bumping the thread for better awareness and possible reasonable answers. So why do you think that the most intelligent African tribe, the Igbo, couldn't stop the Britiah, considering that they're best positioned to do so? I'm sure the question is way beyond your league. So go play outside. |
