If Biafra secceed from the present Nigeria,the New Nigeria will be the present Western Region and Northern Region. These two regions are known to be near deficient in terms of Natural resources especially crude oil which is reputed to be the major foreign currency contributor.
It is a known fact that almost all African Nations survives mostly from sales of Natural resources of which Crude oil is the major resource that bring an enticing foreign exchange. Such New Nigeria will have a population of about 100million.
The question is,how can such a country with scarce natural resources,No technological ability and huge population survive?. How can the New Nigeria Survive in event of Biafra secession?

It should equally be known that large chunk of the population of this new nation will be Almajiris and Islamic extremists and the nation will be probably governed by sharia law.

You bought bigotry into this too soon! No one will add reasonable contribution to your thread anymore. Just be prepared for irrelevant chest beating.

Lmao This Guy Is dreaming. Now who Lie to You say Naija need Biafra?? Wait sef who lie for you say Biafra Get anything just palm trees,coal,erosion n evil forest. If you think the south will follow biafra to their country u must be JOOOOoKing and who lied to You that North and west are deficient in natural resources? Just cos depend on crude oil doesn't mean We don't have more.

Idrismusty97: You bought bigotry into this too soon! No one add reasonable contribution to your thread anymore. Just be prepared for irrelevant chest beating.

that statement is not meant to introduce bigotry. It is a part the challenge the new nation will face. It is true. Even today,the FG has acknowledged that there are large population of Almajiris. Now who doesnt know of BH?

You have not answered the question? Why Mentioning South in your statement?

Do The south plant the food,meat n Vegetables they consume?? Don't lie to your self cos The South Won't follow biafra on their Pointless journey. I wish You knew the suffering the ibo people went through during the civil war. Even the south the Biafra are trying to usurp from Naija killed them. And once gowon cut off food supply,your dreams crumbled or should I say Ojukwu's ambitions crumbled.

Kai! it will be tough for Biafra without Nigeria.
First there will be too much trouble in the north.
The north do not have anybody like Sarduana Bello again.
Instead they have too many JS Tarka.
Maku, Malu, Lekwot, Jang, Danjummai, Hannaniya, etc.
These people will cause too much trouble in the caliphate.
In the end, we will break away but the death will be too much.

For the West, President Ademusiwa will not be able to save lives.
They will drive him away again and he will not be able to go to Ilorin.
We will follow them to mosque in the day and in the night we will do Ifa.
But we have cocoa, cement, and heavy crude.
It is heavy but it is clean so we can eat amala.
No shaking.

The question you should be asking is. How Will Biafra Survive cos Biafra is PISS BROKE nothing nothing nothing

the question is,how will the new Nigeria (Present Western and Northern Nigeria) survive if Biafra seceed? Forget abouth the SS because they will care about themselves or are you trying to add them to the New Nigeria?

Northern land good for agriculture and unexplored solid minerals, south's got Cocoa,water,unexplored solid minerals n Business. We will survive just alright.

hahahahahahah..
Thats very funny.
I am very surprised that the people of Western and Northern Nigeria who doesnt have idea of their survival means in event of Biafra secession.

OP it depends on what you mean by Biafra in Nigeria today. Do consider the following to help you find something better to regurgitate on:
1. Who will make up Biafra? Is it SE and SS or SE alone?
2. Will it be headed by who? Anambra alone will offer more than 500 candidates who are interested and can afford the buy it if you put up for sale. How about Imo, Enugu, Abia, Ebonyi and remember you are interested in the SS.
3. Where will be the capital? (That is a war of its own. It can only be settled when few people butcher and share the gains).
4. If SE alone, then your dream will be a landlocked. If you need the SS to be part of it, then Aligbo will sell their arms and legs, it will not be enough to pay them just to join.
5. SS will be bringing the Atlantic Ocean, Seaports, Crude Oil, Refineries, Gateway - Remind me again what SE will be bringing to the table?
6. SS is already in the corridor of Power in Nigeria (even if APC win, the people of Niger Delta will still be very well rewarded), so tell us what SE is to offer the SS that they cannot get in Nigeria?
7. What is your plan for all the Millions of Ndigbo living outside Igboland, whose lives you engender and who have no significant presence at home? (Will you give them something better than what they have where they are?)
8. In the last 30 months civil war millions of Ndigbo died. Now that we have better weapons, how many will you kill to get your Biafra? 3million, 5million, 10million or you are will to go for 20 if that is what it takes? Will you stand in the front and get killed just to spare one other person's life? Or will you be on Nairaland crying blue murder?
9. Who should be blamed for all the deaths your quest will cause? Is it those urging them, give them guns or it those that will eventually killed them when they rush out to their deaths? Who will you blame?
10. Finally, tell one very important reason that will justify your Biafra after all the year of killings that your yet to start?

Conclusion, if you do not like the current state of things in Nigeria, direct your anger to the current leadership that has failed to live up to expectations. Stop staring hating, beating your rusty chest all over the place and insulting those that muster the courage to ask had questions.

Holy Ezekiah...... this is a pirated version of https://www.nairaland.com/1819823/economically-how-biafra-going-survive

they just switched it around. But, Igbo made things - it still sounds like cheap plastic.

In the thread above biafrans could not even explain how they plan to survive - so how come they know others wont survive. makes no sense.

Also, BIAFRA wannabee's - what proof do you have that the SS (core oil producing states) will agree to work under you ?

Una dey expose yourself ooh - this post just prove that the east plans to sap the Niger-deltan states of their petrodollars in the name of brotherhood, effing parasites.

there was another thread started by a Igbo comparing Bayelsa to eastern states as a yardstick for measuring Biafra's so called academic prowess - the thread also described Ijaw people as dull, dirty, and hopeless.

Friend,this is a question concerning Western and Northern Nigeria. Why are you trying to mix it up? How will the Northern and Western Nigeria survive if Biafra secceed?

My question has nothing to do with Biafra. My question has nothing to do with a 'Igbo' comparing Bayelsa to eastern states. My question is,How will new Nigeria(present Western and Northern Nigeria) survive if Biafra eventually secceed?

You need to buy a newspaper to see who is clamouring for separation today.

What consist of Biafra? SE or SS or Both? On ground, it doesn't look like the SS will join any region.

dont derail this thread. It seems the new Nigerians life are hinged on SS? Why are most of you interested in SS? Tell us how North+west will survive as a nation.

Nigerians are so afraid of the question op asked they are talking of Biafra.

I think west will return to their natural state of perpetual slavery and the north will rely on international aid, 90% of which will come from Biafra.

Sealeddeal: dont derail this thread. It seems the new Nigerians life are hinged on SS? Why are most of you interested in SS? Tell us how North+west will survive as a nation.

But why don't you ask how Biafra will survive as a nation before asking others? In as much as I doubt this country will split, I say my opinion on the issue. I believe the SW will survive. Access to the Atlantic Ocean, oil in Lagos and Ondo, THRID largest reserve of oil sand in the WORLD only beaten by Canada and Venezuela.

Large human resource. I believe we will be fine.

AlfaSeltzer: I think west will return to their natural state of perpetual slavery and the north will rely on international aid, 90% of which will come from Biafra.

For the SW: It is Highly disappointing that you think such. Anyway, only the future can tell.

As for the North: why talk with so much arrogance? They have enough solid mineral to last them a century, not to talk of their agricultural potential.

can i equally consider your answer to meaning that SW will break away from New Nigeria because i see you did not consider North.

Sealeddeal: can i equally consider your answer to meaning that SW will break away from New Nigeria because i see you did not consider North.

In an event a region breaks out of nigeria, I expect ALL regions to break out as well. No region will service another region. So, I expect the SW to be on its own likewise the north.

Sealeddeal: Friend,this is a question concerning Western and Northern Nigeria. Why are you trying to mix it up? How will the Northern and Western Nigeria survive if Biafra secceed?

So after all the insults going on Biafra is now a Southern Nigeria Project? Guy you are very funny

Can the south east survive without south south? All igbos knows the answer.

ola6: What consist of Biafra? SE or SS or Both? On ground, it doesn't look like the SS will join any region.

The SS are even more positioned to become a country before my dear SE. So Ndigbo will start playing second to ijaws? God forbid. Even Dokubo will be President before many Igbo leaders

So why did they go to war when we seceded?

Why didn't you people develop all these resources you shout about?

We heard this before from one suicidal maniac.

If I understood the write-up clearly, the OP didn't specify his region, so no need bashing OP here. If Biafra, or whatever its called should secede, take it to anywhere, SS will NEVER want to be a part of Nigeria, cos like the SE, SS has never been tolerant of the excesses of the North, just that they had, had no choice, till now. SW, that has always been tolerant of the North, if they ever want to be a part of Nigeria, with North, how will the nation(SW, and North) manage? Straight forward! It didn't call for bigotry or chest beating.

dcaliph: Can the south east survive without south south? All igbos knows the answer.

Der is a difference between south south, south east, Niger delta, Biafra...
D Niger delta is an Ijaw republic dat was declared by Atak boro in d 60's...
D southsouth is a geopolitical zone" a Nigerian creation", comprising Ijaw's, IGBO's, Ibibio, Urhobo,Bini etc
Y d southeast is a geopolitical zone comprising mainly of the Igbo's...
While Biafra is a republic declared by Ojukwu in 1966, comprising SOME parts of the southsouth and d whole of the south east, with Philip effiong as d second in command" who brought an end to the war and hostilities"...
If Nigeria divides" give us only d Igbo part of our southsouth, and d part controlled by philip effion's kin if they choose, d rest re free to belong whereever they want to...
