NORTHERN MAN SLAMS NAIRALAND OWNER, SEUN OSEWA OVER A DIVISIVE COMMENT BETWEEN IGBO AND AREWA

Seun Osewa Tweeted, "The descendants of Nzeogwu & his murderous friends, & other well meaning Igbos, should apologize to the north for the murder of Tafawa Balewa & Ahmadu Bello. The north also needs to heal; their distrust of Igbos started with that bloody coup. An apology may start the healing."

In reacting to Seun Osewa's divisive comment, Ismaila Yusuf responded; "Shame! Every election you people bring up this nonsense. Nzeogwu is dead. Aguiyi Ironsi is dead. Gowon is too old to be concerned with this nonsense, but young people like this mutumin banza will always bring it up to divide people during elections. Arewa is not angry with the Igbo people. The civil war happened over 50 years ago. What we arewa are more bothered about is the fact that as recently as 10 years ago Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu supervised the terrorist OPC group massacre of hundreds of defenseless hausa muslims in Lagos. We have been living with Igbo people here in the North, & we have never had any problems with them. Stop trying to twist people's minds babban wawa."
