There's Nothing Like Igbo Marginalisation by babasolution: 7:50am On Jun 22 |
Tell me how the igbos are marginalised? Because they haven't become president since the fourth Republic? They had vp in Alex ekuweme with shagari,they held head of state under ironsi,if he wasn't killed he might have held that post for a long time like Gowon. Igbos are accommodated in every nook n cranny of Nigeria. The igbos have held senate presidency the longest in Nigeria. They have had powerful ministers,they have held head of military outfits. Their businesses are patronised by governments n private citizens. This constant cry of marginalisation of the Igbo ,what is is about? It's totally unfounded and untrue. They complain of FG not siting projects in their region or maintaining mainly the LAGOS seaports,is that enough reason to cry marginalisation? What of others middlebelt states were FG never those projects in their state like kogi for example. The Igbo needs Nigeria more than Nigeria needs them. The war to bring them back into Nigeria was fought mainly because if the igbos had succeeded to seceed it will encourage other regions to seek seccessation too which the central government feared, not because they were particularly needed. 13 Likes 2 Shares |

babasolution: This is no longer a question of marginalisation, but a question of failure. Nigeria had failed for everyone and we should be thinking about how to peacefully dissolve this failed British colonial contraption and let everyone go their way 2 Likes |

I do not believe the Igbos are being marginalized. They want power given to them when they can equally fight for it. I think they are not united too. Like, why are they divided between restructuring, presidency, and Biafra? When it comes to business, I comot cap for Igbo people. Na their bragging right be that. The only thing I dislike about some Igbos is the mentality that they are a superior tribe and greater than any other on earth. That mentality is disgusting, to say the least. It is the same mentality that makes the white man think he is superior by virtue of his skin colour. What makes you superior? That you're Igbo? 1 Like |

ZIAZI: Lol... But they say igbos are fourth in ranking in Nigeria, Hausa/fulani first, Yoruba second, Cow third and Igbo fourth... How can someone who came fourth become the superior and greatest tribe?🤷♂️ You people should just make up your mind and tell us where igbos belong please. |
Re: There's Nothing Like Igbo Marginalisation by ScamHunter: 8:26am On Jun 22 |
You woke up with the nightmare of Igbo ba? Even this early they pursued you from dream to reality. What a great tribe. No marginalization. Why does your government require Igbo children to score higher to qualify for unity schools? No marginalization. Yet you do everything to draw one of the smartest African tribes to your level. No marginalization. Yest you get high blood pressure whenever it is suggested that southern ports in Port Harcourt and Warri, Calabar or Akwa Ibom are made functional? Your fear? Igbo. Because you know they're the biggest imnporters and want all the money to come through your port and deprive other southerners of the chance to prosper like Lagos. No marginalization indeed. 1 Like

babasolution: Your greatest dishonesty is comparing the Igbo nation with minorities like Kogi. The marginalization of the Igbos you are trying to deny here by all these garbage texts you ignorantly and gullibly put up here is something that your elites know very well. The only truth you spitted here still out of your mischievous mind is that Igbos are business oriented, yet Nigeria is so much afraid of giving them a seaport. The juicy positions in the federal government are occupied by Hausas and Yorubas with handful of Igbos occupying the non influential ones. Try to look for a government job with an Igbo name and you understand what I mean if you feign ignorant of that. How many federal government infrastructures have it's Headquarter in Igbo land? Other Infrastructural Development due to them are severally diverted especially to the SW in the cover that they're all South. The easy political marriage between the SW and the North is for easy disenfranchisement of an Igbo man in any serious political struggles, if you deny the knowledge of this, your conscience will judge you. There's no region that doesn't have internal disparity so don't cite that as the Igbo problem. After all the massive support Peter Obi had in the last election in the southeast, Obasanjo didn't have that in his region in 1999 election, yet he won. Your hatred against the Igbos and their glaring success has plunged you into a blindfolding prejudice of accusing the Igbos of having superiority mentality. Igbos have never announced that they are the superior tribes. Perhaps, their achievements and ingenuity are already proving that to you, and for your mental health, it shouldn't attract such a bitterness as expressed in your mischievous post because you can't do anything about it. What you hate, you can't attract. 3 Likes 1 Share |
