The situation has not even gotten close to a stage where any form of referrendum will b called. U better think of how to maximise d opportunities u have in Nigeria.


in the original post, it is written that the Northerners were ready to leave their region without real estates to ensure that the developpers are not Igbo.

Few years back, they would rather say that Nigeria does not produce cars than to agree that Innoson produces cars.

They rather crawl around the globe begging for weapons than to employ native arms making skills at awka.

Lets not pretend as if Nigeria is not drawing us back.


Lets stop being individualistic, it is drawing out back as a whole

I thought at that time we have North,East and west,which means we practice Regional government.why will the easterners not go back to their region to seek for emploment and business and also build their Hotels.Can the igbos gave any Northerner land in the east,is that why they kill Northerner and Western Leaders because they want them to go back to their region?........Even in present day Nigeria How many Northerners have their own houses and shops in the East as compared to Easterners in the North?.
Just remember the Igbos never steal any land to build. It is always been bought....simply stop selling ..

May Amadioha strike anybody who ever try to blame Ojukwu for going into that war.

He did what he thought was necessary and if I were in his shoes, I will do just that.

But one thing gives me joy, those that were against igbos building hotels are still doing mai guard whereas the Igbos are busy building the hotels even till tomorrow. cool

That was politics in the 60's

One wonders why Igbos put so much effort into developing other regions and don't do much more in theirs.

Igbos are normally very cunning and arrogant and are usually carefully scrutinised in any dealings and interactions done with them.

It doesn't speak well for Igbos to bear that 'cheats' tag almost everywhere in Nigeria, something igbos generally acclaim as smartness/wiseness.

Igbos cannot be right and the rest of Nigeria wrong.

To be objective, you have to look at it the other way that is how northerners are treated in the south east then we can come out with object analysis.

You're quite right. The Northerners were treated worse in the SE. So badly that they made one Northerner the Mayor of Enugu. Can you imagine the hatred!

My assessment is what it is.Igbos should channel more of their resources into develiping Igboland..Imagine hotels and other business in the North when the east isn't the most developed region.

Igbos do not have a mega city in Nigeria like thr Hausa and Yoruba or the SS tongue...only laid back 'cities' like Enugu and Owerri..Onitsha and Aba are just mega-towns.

Also, the name Amadioha is Ikwerrian (Igboid). Rather than use that totem, try as much to appreciate your origin for once. There is a Yoruba version for the God of Thunder and that is Ogun.

All these igbos above me, u can't say u hate while u stay in Lagos or outside igbo land.
My own I believe in what I stand for and it's to develop igbo land.
What I have in mind if I do it in a place like Lagos, and it pulls tru Lagos might count among d best in the world, and so wud me.
But I prefer to do it in igbo land, and am willing to go the extra mile to make sure igbo land is viable to achieve such.
If it means ending d life of Nnamdi Kanu, Ralph Uwazirike and d rest of u Biafran agitators so be it.
Anybody who doesnt want the progress of igbo land is not my kin.
I know your type, feeling you're intelligent enough to know what is good for your people, maybe you should tell us why countries like scot, Serbia catalonia yogulosovia etc are seceding or have seceded. if you can tell us that then we can discuss. but for now, ooh shove it aside your intelligence starts and ends in you circuit and ability. nice try thou but intelligence isn't about writing in english language

They have no city in the mould of Abj,Lag,PH and Kano in Igboland..They just look disorganised.if they can come together and make Enugu or Onitsha et al truly worldclass, nobody will call them names..They will earn their respect.

WE,THE IGBOS WILL KEEP BUYING AND BUILDING WHEN AND WHEREVER WE DEEM IT FIT IN ONE-NIGERIA.
Be it lagos,kano,oba of lagos's palace,emir of sokoto's palace.
If you don't like conduct a referandum.

The op is being mischievous, trying to fan the embers of ethnic/ regional animosity. There is a debate before parliament, you pick what some people said and post it. You should have posted the entire record of the proceedings on the subject and the resolution of the parliament. The brainless posters spewing trash above ar simply ignoramus brats who deserve pity for their condition of inability to us their brain.

Spare me the tears woke. Thought we busted your cover long ago in the Rivers thread. Not just me but every other prominent Rivers dude on nairaland. Our message is clear and if you stick to it, I repeat we shall stop stalking you. Stay clear of using Ikwerre or any Rivers tag to perpetrate your bigotry. Learn to accept your Yoruba origin. We know you wish you were a Rivers man.

Another idea is getting either northerners or yorubas on our side, but that is almost impossible, the hate is deeply embedded.
