Yeah, loved 100%. She specifically asked me if I am igbo and if I do believe in Biafra like every igbo she has met in SA and ANGOLA. You need to travel out of you brown roof village to witness,verify and experience this facts. Nigeria will be shocked if IPOB decides that it's show time to pick up arms, this is 2020 and not 60's.

The writer may not be a professional author, but his message is clear.

Facts cannot be disputed. Tell me one state in Nigeria, that the Yorubas own more real estate after the indigenous people, yet you're debating the patriotism of the Igbo man.

Today, I challenge you to a debate, what has Lagos state built after all these built by FG.

*Port
*Airport
*University
*Roads
*Bridges
*Stadiums
*Government House
*Railway
*Housing Unit
*Military Installations

Let us know, what your state has added since democracy started.
Mumu, is it FG that built the local airport in Lagos Mr dummy. Why will Lagos build international airport. Why would they build cargo when there is one already.

Is it FG that built Lekki bridge, see dummy talking of road, I won't even go to that. Lol, so this one is telling us here that it is FG that build housing unit. This one must be a kid. Jealous of Lagos and yorubas since day one of his life. It is FG that but lasu and laspotech. Dundee.


I challenge you to name any real estate igbo man has in another state.

So oyo, ondo, Ekiti, ogun, has large number of non indigens. Plus all south east states. So the northern states he won also has large number of non indigens. The none indegens are from Jupiter right?

The truth is that igbos dominate them in their own backyard...so they won't even want to go to igbo land and start up a business because of the dominating nature of the average igbo man.

That is true Nigeria will not tell you because of envy and wickedness they have toward Igbos.

It baffles me each time I read from people that there is a wickedness or marginalization against Igbo. As much as I hate to criticize, it’s quite clear that those who comes out to write or say such are the educated illiterates among the tribe. So every opportunity they have to display their supposed literacy, they fails to make sense. You are the one being marginalized yet, you are well tolerated everywhere, you establish wherever you are especially Yoruba land. Go to Yorubaland you see them contesting elections with the sons of the soil and they will still get support, they have itch free campaigns. The igbos are being voted as market leaders in Yoruba land, even in a case of misunderstanding, they don’t indulge their own against Igbo. Please before displaying your illiteracy, try search for meanings of the words you use. If you are talking of marginalization or wickedness as you say, you won’t be enjoying all that, go to places where racism is strong especially against black then you will know the real meaning of marginalization or wickedness. Even in the southwest that you live, you can not deny it that an average Hausa enjoys the benefits the Igbo enjoys. Hausas living in southwest should know better about marginalization than Igbo. I hope sense will fall on the ones that keep shouting wickedness so as not to use their mouth cause trouble for the sensible ones going about their business.

Secondly in today Nigeria is only igbos that vote on merits rather than tribalism when it come to politics, they stand and defend merits rather than sentiment it happened during the death of Yaradua, they stand behind Obasanjo even though Ojukwu was contesting, they stand behind Atiku because they know he is more better than Buhari not minding all the intimidation,marginalization and lopsided appointment from aa present government. An average igbo person does not care of who become Nigeria president but want equal opportunity, enabling environment for all citizen to succeed in whatever he does and to see every citizen as a Nigeria not the tribe he or she come from. An housa/fulaniman will rather vote for housaman that he knows have nothing to offer than voting for a saint from Igbo tribe so is...........




Op you're very wrong... The yorubas divided their votes in the last election... They voted for both bubu and atiku unlike your people that only voted for Atiku because he choose
an igbo man as a v.presidential candidate

I will never be silence until Nigerians change there attitude towards igbos, called me the name you may wish the truth remain that igbos are being marginalized and we all said we are one Nigeria. You borrow build railway to the north, to the west and still borrowing to developed other part of the country . IF igbos are no longer part of Nigeria we should left to get our independence Nation because you can't continue subject igbos to pay a loan used to developed other part of the nation.

I think on this particular one, you would be wasting your time calling on Nigerians because they are not the ones in the rep/senate. You should rather call your representatives to accountability. Every state has equal senators and reps, what are the easterners doing there when others are pushing for slots in the budget? No president will come inspect, that’s why the construction has given each state the representatives slots so they can bring to the ears of the government the plight of their people but it’s a pity when they get there and start lobbying for contracts, oil and gas portfolios and so on at the expense of their people. Call your representatives to accountability.

Did you notice how uncultured and dim-witted you are, with incoherent tences and disjointed rationale.


Since the creation of Lagos, the state with an average budget of N700 billion per year, is boosting of Lekki Bridge?, a bridge that's less than 200 meters. For your information, it's on concession (PPP) , it wasnt built by Lagos state.

Gowon Estate was built by Federal Government in Egbeda, the biggest Housing unit built by Federal Government is in Festac, you lack basic primary information that makes a man.

I'm not your teacher, while El-Rufai was the FCT Minister, he made mention that Igbos own 64 % of property in Abuja, owners according to state.

Unfortunately, you don't know that with less than N100 billion, you can start an Airport. Every state of the federation has a university, so... What has Lagos built outside the Federal Infrastructures built with South South Money?

It's not a privilege to reside in any part of Nigeria, the revenue that's used to run your states machineries is coming from South South, what are you giving to them in turn? Please you aren't helping Igbos, if they have there rents, they're giving a space like every other person.

I am not saying it’s a privilege or a matter of help but crying wickedness and marginalization is off point if those things are put in consideration. Also, since the revenue used for development of other regions is from south south, that’s why I said you should hold your representatives that are supposed to bring yours accountable. Every region has equal number of reps in the legislature so, they should be held responsible for failing the region.

It's not a function of holding them accountable. A vast majority of the tribe don't love fairness, merit, that's the only reason why Federal Character is enshrined in our constitution.

If the rest of the majority decides to take loan and improve there spaces, excluding them like the case of $22 billion, what do you expect them to do?

Lagos state was never the FCT at any point in Nigeria's history. Go and read about Lagos city that was the fct and Lagos state . Majority of what is now known as Lagos state used to be under the defunct Western regional government .
In fact , Awolowo's built the first industrial estate in Nigeria in present day Lagos state .

Normally , I shouldn't respond to your incoherent rant but for the sake of unsuspected public .


Lagos became a colony of the British Crown in 1861. That is what is present day Lagos Island.
Lagos as it's presently was a creation of 1967 but so many are ignorant of that fact.

Again you are not making any sense. The guy just told you guys to look inward and ask your Senators and reps questions you are still blaming others for focusing on their own region. I wonder how you blame people that are simply doing their job. I remember the role Senator Ekeremadu and many Senators from Igbo land played in the last Senate when the same loan proposal was tabled on the floor of the Senate. Most senators from Igbo land went against it because it was Buhari. They did nothing when they were in leadership position in the Senate because they were blindfolded with hatred for Buhari and his party. Now that APC is in charge, a party you never voted for you need to learn how to lick your wound and move on.

That loan has passed the Senate. It shall scale thru the reps with some tips for southeast. Head or tail Southeast still the biggest loser due to their style of politics of bitterness like the one Senator Abaribe is currently playing and you guys are hailing him on.

If you like you can label me a fulani or ibiobio for simply telling you the truth. It is your cup of tea.

the south south was handsomely rewarded in 2011 when GEJ was voted for massively by the SW after even supporting his emergence as acting president earlier [when even the se was supporting the turai cabal] but it was the same se who wrecked his govt by making him turn against those who gave him the support to emerge and he paid dearly for it in 2015.

Thanks for the enlightenment since you know more than me. If Igbo has 5 states, is not three senators per state, nine reps per states and the yorubas from kwara and Kogi, do they advocate for oyo, Ogun or for their constituency? Because you are counting states as if it is by number of states.
