Are the Igbo not Nigerians?

Why do you hate them?

Dear fellow Nigerians,  a yoruba adage says, “Ti a ba nsun ekun a ma nri ran.” 

Crying shouldn’t get in the way of clear vision.

Enough of this scapegoating of the Igbo. They wanted to leave, Nigeria fought a war and killed over three million of them, but in 2024, we are allowing politicians to deploy bigotry whenever we try to hold them accountable.

Are the Igbo not Nigerians? This nonsense has to stop.

You blame a whole tribe for the 1966 coup, tagging it as an Igbo coup, even though they had the least number of officers involved in that coup.

You call them IPOB when it is clear that not all Igbo supported the group. There is Boko Haram in the north, but una no get liver to tag any Hausa or Fulani’s post as Boko Haram supporters..

You go to bed hungry…..You blame the Igbo

You can’t maintain an erection….You blame the Igbo.

You tried to blame them for the destruction of property in Lagos during #EndSARS when there is ample video evidence to show government-sponsored thugs causing mayhem.

You dragged them for supporting their competent and popular son when there is evidence to show that they previously gave their votes to PDP regardless of the tribe of the presidential candidate. 

Now, you are trying to tag them as the planners of a protest that is being planned by Nigerians across the nation. Aren’t they Nigerians?

Enough of this nonsense!

It’s time to stand up for our brothers and sisters by calling out the bigotry of these eternally stewpid individuals wherever you come across it….

Let 2024 be the year that Nigerians stop this nonsense!
