Do not join the SE's arguments or issues with the south-south's. The south east is not qualified to vocalise words about the south-south's issues.

Have you noticed that the Igbo nation never existed before the white man came? (Not that it even really exists now). Please it is indeed something of an insult.

Let them flaunder alone as they continue to do - searching for an identity outside of themselves and in haraunging others instead of looking inward, inside themselves, to re-evolve and define a constructive national Igbo identity

OPCNAIRALAND:


This revision of history is dead on arrival.

After Ooni's death many non-Yorubas for the first time, going by the spicy fictitious tale of a runaway Abobaku got a glimpse into this old tradition in Yorubaland.
What realy is Abobaku?

Abobaku translates as one attached to guard the person of an Oba and commited to sacrifice his life in defense of the Oba's life. He carries on him a sword and is equally ready to behead any person who intentionally endangers his Oba's safety. Once the Oba dies an Abobaku is ready to go in service for next Oba or be reassigned to other palace guard duties. The Abobaku corps is the Yoruba equivalent of Brigade of Guards.


In military heirarchy, an ADC is typically chosen from brigade of guards. An ADC is commited to stay on side of his principal and take a bullet for him or put a bullet in others who risk or threaten safety of his person. In Nigeria an ADC is simply an Abobaku. In places like US secret service agents are nothing but Abobaku.

It is intriguing to read that Ironsi's ADC, Nwankwo fled the scene. Can you please share more on this historic escape?

It is even absurd to read an escapee Nwankwo position himself as brave and label Fajuyi who stayed to protect and take a bullet for Nwankwo's principal as coward.

Ibos are just not capable of understanding political relationships at all. Ibos brain is not wired appropriately to cope with the complexities and abstracts of playing politics at the level demanded by our national polity.

OMG!
bn on ds thread right from page 1.
Hmmmmm, sooooooooo much inbuilt hatred spewed forth!
Chai!
@Timbuktuo, na wah o. Its only Almighty God that'll save us from ds perennial hatred of one another.
Chai, such hypocrisy........... you smile @ me/can be my "best friend" (sic) just because u want 2 sell ur "market" 2 me but when it's time 2 appoint someone 4 a post, u suddenly remember what my great-grandfather purportedly "did" 2 urs, @ dt point in time u now realise "he's not my brother, I must support my brother"-who hitherto had been of no benefit 2 u!
.
I'm good enuf 2 be ur client but not good euf 2 marry ur son/dota! That's wen u remember that 'Yoruba men marry many wives'......' Igbo men are strong headed'........ 'hausa ppl are religious fanatics'........
.
In church/mosq, 'bro Femi' sees 'bro Emeka' as his brother (and vice versa), but when service 'haff' finish....everybody goes back 2 d 'ethnocentric' trenches.
.
. So, so, sooooo disgusting!

Youth wing of the apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, the Ohanaeze Youth Council, OYC, has advised those spearheading the agitations of the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra that seceding from Nigeria would not be in the interest of Ndigbo.

The OYC National President, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro stated this on Saturday during a press conference in Umuahia, the Abia State capital, while unveiling plans for this year’s Igbo Youths Day slated for Monday in Umuahia.

He stressed that it is better for Ndigbo to remain in Nigeria and struggle for their fair share of the ‘national cake’ than fight for self-determination which is bound to come with consequences.

“It is better we remain in Nigeria and fight for our rights than secede. We have been patient enough and in 2019, it will be our turn to produce a Nigerian President. It will take a Nigerian President of Igbo extraction to heal the wounds of Biafra,” he stated.

Isiguzoro however called on the Federal Government to unconditionally release all members of MASSOB and other Biafran activists detained in various prisons across the country, and address injustices against Ndigbo in the country, which he noted were the major reason for the agitation for self-rule by MASSOB and other pro- Biafran groups.

He maintained that it flies in the face of reason for MASSOB members who are non-violent to continue to be held illegally for years in detention, ‘‘while the same government is busy releasing captured members of violent groups like Boko Haram and Niger Delta militants who have taken up arms against the state.”

“Since the Federal Government is secretly negotiating with Boko Haram terrorists, why can’t it also negotiate with MASSOB, which is non-violent? Since it is releasing some Boko Haram fighters, it should also consider MASSOB members detained illegally in prisons,” he added.

The OYC President however declared support for the anti-corruption crusade of President Muhammadu Buhari, stressing that those responsible for the woes of Nigeria should be brought to book.

He went on to reveal that this year’s Igbo Youths Day would be used to sensitise Igbo governors on the urgent need to invest in agriculture for youth empowerment.

In an earlier remark, Chairman of the organising committee and National Vice-Treasurer of OYC, Dr. Lawrence Dozie, gave the theme of this year’s celebration as “Ndigbo: The Challenges of our Youths.”

MightySparrow:


Fine be a vanguard to your Kins to stop harassing people and plan a strategy to put somebody in Aso Rock. I am a. Yoruba person (and proudly that); we find ourselves in this country by divine design, though it is a marriage of strange bed fellows. We cannot easily change that.
For Yorubas to lose foremost persons like MKO, Kudirat Abiola, Olu Onagoruwa, Bola Ige etc and some agitators (living or dead) like Femi Falana, Gani Fawhinmi, Fela Anikulapo Kuti, Awolowo etc struggling to make Yorubas gain relevance in Nigeria politics is not a joke.
So, some over zealous Igbo youths write nonsense here to harass people. Better strategy with patience will yield a desirable answer soon. Very soon. Long live Ndigbo.

neocortex:


What you just wrote up there is the mindset of a slave
who is hoping he will one day be emancipated.
Fela once said you can't dash somebody his right,
how can you be suffering and be hoping that one day
someone out there will pity you ?
Those who don't put their destiny into their own hands always
end up where they don't want.
I have checked the history of successful countries,
none of them rely on external factors to take them there.

MightySparrow:


Ok o you are the master with a masterly mindset coutinue to harass and abuse every tribe. Few days ago, Area boys were looting shops in Lagos 'no man's land' I even learnt the area boys were even Igbos claiming their right.
The next thing expected of Igbos is to initiate a fight in Lagos. And take over Oba of Lagos palace. Take the throne or buy the theone of Emir of Sokoto. If you have travelled outside your Igbo land to the north and feel the northern opinion about you igbo you will know tgat yorubas still tolerate Igbos. Buy the time you carelessly court the trouble. Of Yorubas and they turn agaist you, you will become an endangered species in Nigeria.
All hail 'the masterly Igbo ;d
