I agree with Ijeoma's statement. Let us let peace reign in Nigeria. This tribal clashes will lead us to nowhere but the grave. My igbo brothers, ignore the rantings of a few yorubastards who are spoiling for a fight when they have never seen blood spilled before in their lives except in hollywood movies. I have many yoruba friends who love the state of peace as much as I love it. They are the true yorubas; the true sons of the soil. M17 my brother, I am angry with the state of things as much as you are but let bygone be bygone. We will never forget the Oba's words but we will continue to coexist in peace and harmony with them(it is entirely up to them yorubastards). Funniest part is when the thunder strikes, the rain will wash away even the rain maker. To yorubastards out there, igbos never ever initiate any clashes but they never turn their backs on any fight. Stop hiding behind internet singing warsongs. Come to the open; be a man or be a coward whose war is only fought with blackberry and iphones gotten from igbos. I sing peace. Igbos and the sensible yorubas can live in harmony. It is a choice. |

waternogetemeny:This post has 8 LIKES > I am wondering why. Did she win a Nobel prize whilst all of us were asleep? Why do these Eboes continue to ridicule themselves like this. That is how another one said that Onitsha market is so big the US army buys drones there.Yet another said Orji Kalu is so rich he banks with the World Bank as our Central Bank cannot cope with his money. So no surprise Eboes have awarded her a Nobel Prize whether we like it or not 1 Like |

PassingShot:Coming from an unrepentant bigot, islamic jihadist and Igbo hater. Igbos are relatively peaceful whether you agree or not. You keep regurgitation bullshyte all over. How many times have Igbos attacked or launched a violent campaign against any person or community. We all know the people that attack people at night, kill and maim others in their abode while asleep, and also those that are nomadic destroying peoples farmlands and even laying ambush on members of a community where they graze.

Personally I’m deeply hurt hearing some Yoruba leaders telling my people that we should be “grateful” living in Lagos; that is utterly unfair, point blank. Any Yoruba person saying that is very shallow minded. We Igbos work HARD for our living, and add IMMENSELY to the growth and development of the city. That's the summary. The rebuttal by Ijeoma was unnesssary. Chimamanda's main message is the same as what I quoted. 4 Likes |

angelawoko: Ozichi, I must commend your writing skill which I think is the main reason for your article since I can't find what you have really said differently. Chimamanda has made her points and no matter the angle from which you look at it, the Oba as a royal father should be mindful of his statements. All it would have taken would have simply been, " Igbos, you are all my children and I am so sorry that you misunderstood me". This would have been better than using Publicity to insult the intelligence of the Igbos and even using groups like OPC and others to threaten them. Ozichi, no one likes riots and wars BUT NO ONE WILL LIKE TO BE A THREATENED STRANGER IN HIS OWN COUNTRY. Enough is indeed enough. 2 Likes |

I agree with this article, same way I agreed with that of Chimamanda's. As an Igbo man, no matter how "cosmopliticized" any Igbo state becomes tomorrow, calling it a no-man's-land will irk me. It's insultive. The land wasn't bare before non-indigenes came there, so no one has any right to call it a no-man's-land. Any Yoruba getting angry because of tha word is right to be angry. That said, I don't believe the average Igbo man sees Lagos as a no-man's-land, just the few disgruntled elements I see on Nairaland. When I see the Yorubas getting angry over it, I do ask myself, how those few monikers, who might not even be Igbos, get them to believe ALL Igbos think such way? I've never met any Igbo person offline that called Lagos such name. And I also don't support the idea that some Yorubas say, that non-indigenes should be "grateful" to them for allowing them in their lands. That's bullshít. They pay taxes, they're law-abiding, and most importantly, they're Nigerians; so why should a Nigerian be grateful for living in Nigeria. ![]() Corruption is not the greatest enemy we should defeat; Tribalism is. It's eroded every logical reasoning in Nigerians. 2 Likes |
