Here we go again! Here we have sassy pontificating abt knowledge-igbos are these, igbos're that! wow! Although, i do respect the enterprising nature a lot my fellow nigerian from the southeast but to say they dominate in all walks of life is absurd. I am pretty sure of this sassy, there were times when the 16 justices of the supreme court of nig were from the southwest of Nig., knowledge, skills and education took them there. It isn't just enough for u to brag, please prove it!!!!

yormeey your comment shows your level of ignorance. before the war IGBOS doninated everyone in nigeria and they had most of the top jobs in the north and the west and all the businesses were owned by IGBOS. thats northerners were intimidated and yorubas envy IGBOS get yourself educated and come out of yorubastic timid, fake, false and lieing nature. Remember going to school doesn't make you educated.

"There has been nobody at the helm of affairs in this country from Buhari, Babangida to Obasanjo who has come up to fight for their(Niger Delta's)plight. So why should we say that we are going to deploy troops to go and kill them, forgetting that we are going to deploy troops to go and kill them, forgetting that the soldiers that are going to be sent there are with the equipment bought with the money that comes from the Niger Delta." - Rtd. Col. Abubakar D. Umar. Daily Independent. July 6, 2008.

"Former Head of State Gen. Yakubu Gowon (Rtd) has come hard on present and past African leaders (himself was Nigeria's Military Head of State, 1967-1975) especially the military saying that their greed kept the continent from developing, several decades after political freedom.." "While the continent continues to be ravaged by wars, hunger and diseases, our leaders continue to engage themselves in endless, yet futile battles for supremacy in greed and destruction." --- Vanguard May 7, 2008.

"The whole of Black race is backward because of the Hausa-fulani people. It is about their dominance. In Asia, the Chinese are the dominant people and the entire Asia is progressing today because of the progressive nature of the Chinese. Why is Africa not progressing today? Is it not because the Hausa-fulani are the largest ethnic group in Africa, and they are corrupt, bankrupt and primitive. That is why the whole of the black race is in darkness." -Asari Dokubo. Nigerian Tribune August 17,2008

"People know that Nigeria does not exist as a true nation. But our leaders are fraudulently holding up to the country because of the oil in Itsekiri land, in Ogoniland, in Ilaje, Ijawland and Urhobo land and in some parts of Iboland. There was a civil war in this country and the fight was mainly to hold on to the oil. What is holding this contraption called Nigeria together is the oil and for so long..our people has been used.." - Asari Dokubo. Nigerian Tribune Newspapers. Sunday august 17, 2008

During the early days when the easterners were in some high position and our nation was a true confederation, we were moving forward. Now the system has been bastardized. I don't think any people are stupid rather I prefer, we accept our differences and forge a policy of national unity. If Nigeria must remain together, they must accept a policy of unity in diversity. A true confederation can help achieve this. Other than this, we would continue to deceive ourselves and live poor forever..

Biafrans7,you've finally realised and accepted the actual problems the Igbo have been facing which is, as you rightly said,their lack of ability to 'form polical alliances'. Your destiny is in your hands. As we speak, start filtering out those ppl that represent ur interests and those who care abt ur welfare. You also need to do away wiv ppl like ojukwu and uwuzirike, they represent only deluded interests, they did no good to U btw '67-'70, they do no good now and they'll never get u nowhere!

Sassy..what is it about marginalisation that the southeast cannot create a political coopertaion amongst themselves? If you conclude that Nig has been ruled by 'barbaric, inhuman criminals' that definitely includes Zik, Akhomu, Nnamani and more rcently the chiarman of NDDC who bath with money. There's nothing domineering and intelligent about a group who have not been able to galvanise, organise and create political prosperity of their pple..

Yormeey what is it about nigeria that make you think nigeria is a nation? nigeria has been ruled by barbaric, inhuman, killers and criminals. They killed IGBOS by starvation in genocidal war out of envy, just because NDIIGBO are intelligent and domineering and nigeria has remained unworkable since then. shame!!!
