Why would a full grown man stoop to the level of planting juju in front of his neighbours store just because he cannot keep up with the competition ? These are the same people who go around calling Ndigbo a buying and selling people, yet envy continues to rule their actions. I now see where tipsy dupsy was coming from.
7 feared dead, 15 injured as traders, miscreants clash
By Albert Akpor Thursday, October 30, 2003
LAGOS — NO fewer THAN SEVEN persons were feared dead yesterday in Lagos in a clash between Igbo traders and a group of land speculators referred to as Omo-Onile in the commercial center of Ido and the adjoining Oyingbo area.
Eye-witness accounts said about 15 persons were seriously injured in the fierce clash which lasted several hours, disrupting commercial activities and vehicular movement in and out of the area. Cutlasses, broken bottles and locally made guns were freely used. The police however said no lives were lost, but added that 10 have been arrested in connection with the fracas.
According to sources, trouble started between the two groups including members of the dreaded Oodua Peoples Congress OPC after an Igbo trader met his Yoruba counterpart allegedly planting charms in front of his shop. It was gathered that when the Yoruba man could not give a reasonable answer as to why he was planting the charm, he was beaten and driven away from the area. However, sources hinted that the man reported the matter to members of the OPC which mobilized and invaded the area, unleashing terror on whoever came their way.
Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Emmanuel Ighodalo confirmed the clash and said the situation had been put under control. He added that the police was already talking with heads of the warring factions with a view to finding lasting solution and peace.
His words: "From what we have been able to gather, a Yoruba man was found at the front of a shop belonging to an Igbo man, "planting juju." He was challenged and I think thereafter, a fight ensued because the man who went and mobilized to fight back and the whole thing degenerated into a free-for-all fight. But we have been able to bring the situation under control now. Nobody died, but about five persons were seriously injured. Already we are talking with heads of the warring groups towards bring lasting peace among the groups."

I don't know which is more backward, between the Yoruba and their juju/babalawo animalism, and the Hausa-Fulani stone-age primitivity. If we don't hurry and get away from these backward tribes, they are going to drag us into the stone-age with them. When these Hausa marauders chase the World Health Organization out of BiafraNigeria, guess who will be blamed and massacred when Polio starts devouring every Hausa man, woman, and child

Ojukwu, Ojukwu, I volunteer to tell you which is more stone-age. The USO (read backward/s) caste system practised by the Ibos of Southeast Nigeria. My two cents.
Are you so shameless that you would even attempt to defend this? Could that lazy coward not have opened his own store rather than resort to stone age superstitious means ?
I thought buying and selling was such a bad thing, what is the OPC doing planting juju in the market ? Now you see why BiafraNigeria is backward, Igbo progress causes untold envy and some would rather have a war than live with it. Shame.

It is a shame no body including Andy and other Yellow bellies in this county has condemned this juju man than being defensive. Now, you wonder why empty drums makes the most noise? Yep, that confirms my analysis about the Yellow Bellies......they just can't keep up with the Igbos. Juju over a hardworking man.... First it is pathological.Second, it is backward. Third, it is troubling and fourth it demonstrates a heavy dose of weaknesses and envy of a race. What else could it be Andy boy?
Hail Biafra

Olusegun Obasanjo - a Yoruba Coward, a crude Fraud.
Emeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, the fiery former head of state of defunct Biafra, has roundly condemned President Olusegun Obasanjo, describing him as a "fraud."
"He is a fraud because he presents himself as a civilian. He is a fraud because he presents himself as a democrat. He is a fraud because he presents himself as a leader. He is a fraud because he presents himself as a Christian. If I have to sum him in one word, Obasanjo is a fraud", Odumegwu-Ojukwu told Daily Independent yesterday on the eve of his 70th birthday at his rented Independence Layout residence in Enugu, adding that Obasanjo was more of a military man than a democrat.
"I must say that he has presented himself as something he is not. Obasanjo is the nearest civilian I know to the military in everything he does. He has not got the mind elastic enough to accommodate those in uniform khaki and the babanriga.
"He is trying very much to exemplify a civilian but everything about him is rudely and crudely military. His responses are extreme. And everything becomes a power play instead of a gentle persuasive effort".
Odumegwu-Ojukwu also accused Obasanjo of being "the greatest coward that ever bestrode" the Nigerian terrain.
He charged that the first six months of Obasanjo's reign in 1976-1979 was a time of sheer cowardice on his part because he could not bring down his predecessor, Murtala Muhammed's portraits from where they hung on the walls and he could not refer to his government without seeking shelter and security in the hyphenated surname, Murtala-Obasanjo.
"That was the only time in our history that Nigeria was ruled from the grave" he concluded.

It must be a source of morbid fear for Obasanjo to know that notwithstanding his stolen wealth and glories, there will always be superior men who look at him and see nothing but the crude animal that he is. Soyinka saw it, we have said it here over and over again. Now, General Ojukwu has told him that in unmistakable terms.
Obasanjo is indeed a coward. Now, let's see him go after Ojukwu.

You cannot trace the orgin of his green face,[envy] blue skills [incompetent] and yellow belly [coward]from the Hausa or Igbos. To understand this behavior is to understand it's originality, that which is his race[Yoruba]. Yes, Obasanjo is Yoruba and therefore he is without doubt or unquestionably, a naughty COWARD.
Hail Biafra

In fairness, Yorubas are by nature cowards. Tell a yoruba man that "Olopa m bo" .... meaning that a police is coming; then, he or she dives into the bush. Honestly speaking, there are naturally cowards. That is the legacy of the Yoruba race. You saw it in Diya.
