[s]Did u just said poverty an backwardness in Abia? You are an egocentric,myopic,attention-seeking ,fame-craving moronic egg-head.what state are you from let's compare with Abia state? Or which state in the south-west ,apart from lagos,is better than Abia?rubbish[/s]

Continue to deceive your akpu head with all those biggie grammar

Abia state is a useless poverty infested state.

No major infrastructures, no meaningful economic activity. even your fellow iboes do not like associating themselves with abia and ebonyi.

If given the opportunity and transport fare, all abians will relocate to Osun state tomorrow.

Abia should be joined to its Mother - Imo for sanity sake and survival.

Asides Ebonyi, Abia is the disgrace to the class of states in the South Least.

Enugu we know, Anambra we know, Imo we know but wtf is Abia?

**grins** Peter deolu, I think you should keep shut. If you had not spent your formative years being a cultist in crappy osun state uni, you would have come to terms with the fact that you are beneath the Igbos on the scale of humanity. That also explains your joblessness, find a Job.

Not to waste my time, I will post my response in bullet points since that is what you worth.

. Like your ilk, you have also used the term ignorant while foolishly spelling emigrant as emmigrant. Na emmy awards you go see.

. If you're trying to debate from historical perspective then be careful of those you engage. What prominent Igbo are you talking about here? The prominent Igbo ever was Chinua Achebe, where was he born?

. Before 1914, Igbo was secluded in their enclaves baring breasts and butts and competing with apes in the forest. (There are archival pictures to prove this if you need them) and as a result, upon exposure to western civilization (post 1960) they, out of need for survival trudged to other areas of Nigeria for survival.

. I stated previously that ibo migrate for economic reasons yet you're here talking about maximizing opportunities. Are you not buttressing my point although unknowingly considering your level of IQ.

. Mud houses and poverty yet your kith and kin have highly populated Akure and the remotest parts of Ondo doing the least jobs and perpetrating crimes? Really?

. Ilaje? Ijaw dominated area? Lmao! Say that in the presence of an Ilaje and you could get your ass whopped.

A quick run down of your post simply depicts a reiteration of the point I have continued to repeat all day that ibos are excessively emotional beings. You have not said anything of substance from the bullchit vitriols you concocted. This post of yours is an emotional outburst but I do not blame you, it is innate with you people.

Please do not bother to quote me further, go rub your cl!t or somerhing.

You have not answered the question.

Is Abia an oil producing state? Since when didit start producing oil? Imo inclusive but my question is concerned with Abia much more. That state is no different from Osun (which is not an oil producing state).

,

Go ask Adax Petroleum and Agip.

Weak story. You are going to be our errand boys.

brown3:
joke of the century. The gambari ur masters only want use ur tribe to get back to power, then dump ur guys when they get the power. go ask adekunles and awos family. They will explain to u better.

The hatred and plot to keep the Igbo down in Nigeria must be resolved. Hausa and Yoruba must make up their mind quickly if they want Igbo in Nigeria or not. The time to resolve this issue decisively is getting closer.

Meanwhile, Anambra people should exploit their oil within their border. This fake hate filled state called Nigeria will be decided in 2015. Let us watch and see.

berem:
Nonsense!!
Do you want to tell me Abia and Imo does not produce oil or they should not be in the league of other states you mentioned? What are you insinuating or you're just trying to be tribalistic?

Can't you simply present fact to show Abia and imo are oil producing States that's all the fella asked. He doesn't know and wants to know.. Let's be more patient and accommodating. Haha,!

You are soo oooo on point!!! Couldn't have said it better!!

meccuno:
The strange thing about this debate is that most people who obviously cannot hide their tribal traits are trying as much as possible to make igbos look bad. But trying to make it look as if they are making a sane argument. Some even go to the extent to labelling the SE as landLocked. Ignorance is really a disease that if not checked, might make a whole "Nation" feel sophistication,but just a case of the blind mice with their different description of what an elephant they can't see is. As someone posted above. After the insults,you would expect us to join the "progressives" through our votes. A situation were everything igbo sells and makes up to 10 to 15 pages. While some "sophisticated" folks barely make the 1st page. Trying so hard to disprove the fact that igbos are rising again is like swimming against the tide. If the persecution can be this intense imagine what they would do when voted into power. The stone which the nigerian builders rejected would soon become the chief corner stone.

whitecat2:
Haannn We have Taiye, Aina, Ayo and others in SS, are they Yoruba? Experts will solve the oil problem.

You know you're being ridiculous! Part of being intelligent is acknowledging when you have been licked in an argument! Your example doesn't hold water! I'm sure you know that if someone bears a yoruba name, speaks a variant of yoruba, and has similar yoruba customs, it's not out of place to call them yoruba!! The Egbema example I gave shows that about 90% of a particular Igbo group are in Imo State and the rest annexed into Rivers. Examples like this are rife!!! Should I tell you about the Ukwa area or Obigbo?

Dumb Bleep!
Peter Deolu indeed; you better scout NL for your Petet Deolu properly.
We have read and heard the emboldened severally, does it really make y'all feel good to ape around chest beating? All Ibo on this thread have displayed similar trait: ego trip based on emotion for self aggrandizement.

If my profile pic means 'cult' to you then live with it.

Abuloye deolu, I do not quote people for no just cause, It seems crappy Osun state uni really destroyed your intellect. You are the one who looks like an ape and i can prove it. Do not intentionally seal up those rabbit-ears of yours, It won't help you.

9jacrip:


Beautiful list but who is the oga of them all hierarchically?

You know the answer, Achebe the prominent ibo ever.

there is no such thing as 'oga of them all'. Achebe is great in his field, so are other illustrous sons of igboland in anambra state.

It is only right to cure the affliction of ignorance when discovered, so please kindly enlighten me on how Abia is an oil producing state.

And Imo?

How and when did they start producing oil? I'm not talking discovery of crude oil presence, I am talking production in the class of Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom.

...why didn't u include ondo and edo so DAT we can all know how foo.lish and tribalic you are....lemme educate u....ngwa and ukwa are oil producing communities in abia while oguta and neighbouring communities are oil producing communities in IMO....ignorant f.o.o.l

Go an check statistics data ..southeast has the lowest poverty rate in Nigeria an that is on record.

You can't answer a simple question. And the oil will continue to be elusive to your people till the end of time. Thief, you don't have oil and your neighbors say no oil for you. Kobokobo want oil.

Are you a fish wife? Because you're beginning to sound like one. When logic is turned upside down to fit the jaundiced dream of vitriolic haters like you, than Santa has come to town for you! The point is that Igbo places are economically viable and can stand alone! Not what I'd say for several whatchamacallit places!!! Quid pro quo!!

9jacrip:


God bless you.
These are the kinds of responses I expected. I was not being tribalist in my approach originally, I was just curious how Abia being how it is, is regarded as an oil producing state (plus its percentile output) given the fact that I know folks who have been to Anambra, Enugu, Imo and had good relatively things to say.

If you were truly just "curious", there are polite ways to have addressed your curiosity without offending the sensibilities of others. I'm not a tribalist and I actually have a double heritage (partly from the East and from the North), but I'm sick of half-baked individuals seeking to make a proud tribe their whipping dog because they lost a war of attrition, and also the attendant politics that come with it!! Igbos are part of the engine room of Nigeria and will keep contributing to national growth! When a giant is down on his luck, even ants throw stones at him!!! It is well!!

Your first time and you've added nothing other than a repitition of what your emotional kins have said?

You're a disgrace, you won't last long on NL.

I won't dignify your crap!! I have been on Nairaland for two years or more, but maybe just been there for a year or so as a member. I have read many bitter arguments etc, but your own brand of stupidity takes the cake! Couldn't help jumping into the fray!! I don't mind curses, but be a man and curse all you want!!! Not hiding under some third-rate intellectual garb to spit rubbish!!

It is easier for Bornu to become an Oil producing state, than for a red mud sand state to be.

Ondo oil production dwarfs the combo of Imo and Abia. Fact.

Is that why you folks are resisting the legitimate plan to make Anambra an oil producing state? To limit Igbo potential is a task that must be achieved, aye? LOL! How laughable!!! In case you get too tickled by the production in Ondo, note: it's from largely none yoruba areas! Wake up from your pipe dream!

guy u are really floating. Asides anambra, abia is the thriving indigenous economy in the south-east, a little google save your embarassment. Forget about our shabby politics which indeed is an embarassment to the igbos, abia and abians have made enviable accomplishments in igboland.
Umuahia was the 2nd capital of biafra after enugu, aba at a time was unrivaled in terms of indigenous economic scope, onitsha has taken over. Have u heard of abriba the 'small london' in ohafia L.G area? Every well travelled igbo knows about it. Abia is the home of most army generals of igbo stock, from ironsi, to ebitu ukiwe, to ike nwachukwu...down to ihejirika, trust me, the list is long. Google the ffg names of abia sons-
prof eni njoku, dr michael okpara, alvan ikoku, kanu nwankwo, ndubuisu kanu, nnamdi asomugha, abraham godson, dr ndubuisi ekekwe,...this should do for now. Anybody downplaying the land of enyimba is a learner.
NB- ndubuisi kanu was the first and pioneer governor of old imo state, michael okpara was the eastern region premier after zik.

Not at all.
I just think the whole nddc derivation and chit is responsible for anambra/kogi wahala.
When states producing less than 20% enjoy 13% derivation, states will begin to struggle to own oil locations

Haba bros,why are you spreading hate via ignorance? .If Akwa -ibom produce 200 b/d, and Abia produce 50b/d, dont you know that 13% for akwa-ibom and 13% for abia wont be the same thing? . or you jump window during maths lesson? .

Imo's Njaba reserve is the deepest in west africa. There's oil all over the state, don't be ignorant. Abia as well and both are in the Niger Delta

Bliss4Lyfe:
Just a temporary set back. Oil is no longer a major earner, so who cares. Over-dependence on oil has seen the Russian currency crash to nothing in one week.


Anambra does not depend on oil alone and never will. The oil will never go to Kogi and thanks to the senate for reminding the Presidency on doing the needful. I have evry faith the executive gov of GEJ will do just that.


Kogi or Enugu will not get a penny from Anambra oil sales. Cry me a river.

Whats more to say? You've said it all!!! People fear what they can't understand. The ingenuity and sagacity of the typical anambarian and indeed the Igbo man strikes fear in the heart of all lazy men. The trick is to bring the issue to the front burner! Great move Sen. Andy Ubah, great move!!! That bill is as good as passed!! Quote me!!!!!
