First of all, the oil you have is in very little quantity. Secondly the SE is landlocked, meaning that you cannot get to the sea except through the SS. In other news, if you must have a seaport in the SE you "must" as a matter of necessity dredge our (SS lands, either Rivers or Akwa ibom) lands.

Whoever says SE isn't landlocked needs to start taking geography lessons.

TonyeBarcanista:

I have no problem whether you (in your personal capacity) stand with IPOB or not. Even Asari in his capacity as Asari is standing with IPOB. Nobody have the right to abuse you for your position.

However, the position of SS, which you and I belong to is very clear. We recognise the respective ethnic nations as distinct, and we have defined our demand(as seen in the Kaiama declaration for the Ijaws and INC resolution in April 2015). Other groups also have their demands. Biafra/IPOB or whatever is not part. No Igboman or woman can attempt to go beyond their boundary(as they did in 1967) without being resisted with our full wrath. If they need us, they should come with their proposal but it is for us to decide whether or not we want it.

This is not just a personal opinion of Tonye. You know quite well the mind of our people. By the grace of God, efforts/plans are ongoing to address some of our challenges as a people.


PS: No SS is embarrassing themselves.

TonyeBarcanista:

Thanks my brother! They have the right to dream and to wish, but we have the final decision and we have said NO!

You're not even enlightened because if you were , you'd know that the major ethnic group in the SS is urhobo, and it is also the 5th major ethnic group in Nigeria after Fulani. Not even the aniomas or efiks/ibibios come close to us in terms of population.

Now what you should also know is that we in the SS do not discriminate. You've been ranting about his "minor" ethnicity. Tell me, isn't that what you'd do to us "if" we join your biafran course?

Wether minority or majority, in the SS we treat each other with equal love and respect- something you lots lack.

MrAnalyst:
I don't know where to start from. How can this man be this myopic in reasoning. How can he say Igbos can't make a country? The man even said it is only coal that is in the SE? How stu.pidd? For him to say Igbos want to "colonize" SS is a very daft summation and shouldn't be coming from a leader. This divide and rule can't work forever,people are getting smarter!

Living4christ:


u have said no but they hold IPOB meeting in your town hall specifically in Okujagu, Trans Amadi, PH. you have said no but there are IPOB Liaison office in delta and bayelsa, u have said no but note that thousand of people have registered as IPOB in SS

Living4christ:

flokii:

TonyeBarcanista:
Fantasy is good. There is NO indigenous IPOB in any part of SS. I'm also aware of IPOB branch in Lagos and London. You rent a hall, people take money and allow you do your meeting. What's special in that? Don't IPOB do events in London? Are Britons Biafrans?

I have said and will repeat again, there IS NO indigenous IPOB in SS. To be very clear, over 99.999% of SS say NO TO BIAFRA! This is an established fact. Even your Dearpreye and Asari know this.


Stop disturbing me abeg

Slikbae:
The igbos in SS are seen as immigrants. Ask any SSerner, we never refer to the igbos as Niger Deltans nor SSerners. This isn't a form of segregation , it has always been that way. If "we" are lenient enough, we "may" give them Anioma. Nothing more, nothing less.

Biafra remain s the old eastern region nothing more nothing less, Ojukwu met with the chiefs in SS before he added them and they agreed, that was why saro wiwa bought guns for the war (though he betrayed).

TonyeBarcanista:

Which yeye Chief did Ojukwu meet? Name them


Carry your lie comot! The annual Isaac Adaka Boro day is not for ceremony. If you don't know. It reawakens the spirit of the Ijaw man. Saro is a Hero!

Living4christ:


Saro and Adaka is a hero but they formed alliance with the wrong people! If saro and Adaka had allied with ojukwu they would gave been alive and see the SS enjoy there freedom.

TonyeBarcanista:

Fat Liar!
Adaka Boro was not a "Chief" then, he was a young man of 31 that was held in prison in 1966 February. He was in prison even when the war broke out after being convicted for treason.


Wiwa was seriously celebrating the creation of our deam Rivers state. He had no business or meeting with Ojukwu. He was also a youngman and NOT a Chief.


You Biafrans have been fed with so much lies.

Living4christ:


I should have known: an ignoramus indeed. Did I mention in any instance that saro wiwa and adaka are chiefs? U said saro never met ojukwu, JJ ow come he collected money to buy arms and later on he refused to......... google d story. Go to YouTube search for ojukwu speech on Biafra declaration and listen to be enlighten.

Realman87:
Igbos should speak for igbos, ijaws for ijaw, ikwerres for ikwerre, Edos for edos ,efik for efik and so on. Nobody should claim 'we SS'. This is my position.

dearpreye:


I've tried as much as possible to refuse to disagree with you online though I've done that with you offline. In this time and age it's really saddening when someone like YOU keep making statements that are untrue and baseless. For the records, I'll support any agitation that will either restructure this system OR take me out of it.

Who's enjoying our oil at the moment? The Igbos or the Waziri and their folks? Why should you support a people who are cheating you daylight while painting others as those who want to cheat you? I'll rather continue this talk with you offline.

Please, your insinuations about the Igbos attempting to take our lands is nauseating and insulting to me. Bro, if the SS keeps monkeying itself into the delusion that the Igbo man needs their polluted land, let them continue.

I'll stand with the Igbos and any other group of people who want to chart their own course. Let the SS keep embarrassing itself.

Why should one Waziri from the North make such a speech? It's simply because his understand the workings of the mind of the average SS person. I won't fall for their divide and rule tactics AGAIN.

Sweetguy25:
This is 2015, colonization has officially ended decades ago.

The south east is only seeking a socioeconomic and political partnership with their sisters in the south south and nothing else. It is only a foool who would believe or think that the Igbos are bent or planning on "colonizing" the south south. How is that even possible?

The defunct eastern region (which included the present south south) used to be one of the fastest developing regions in the world back in the 60s.

We can still achieve this feat if we come together for a greater good and discard this failed project called Nigeria.

We can build a country that could be the envy of the african continent only if can come together for that purpose.

dearpreye:


I'm glad you succinctly and in summary ably put a rooms something I'll struggle to do in days.

This is the ONLY reason why I'm totally in support of our forming a stronger and more purposeful union.

You've stated all the truth there is to state. In this era, I find it so depressing when some people delve foolishly into the belief the SE wants to colonise their own brothers.

The last two general elections have shown us who are true brothers are. It's my people that are dragging me engine schedule. It's still a question of time.

Sweetguy25:
It is very painful. The Nigerian state as it is today is setup to breed distrust, jealousy and hatred even amongst brothers. The pattern of giving monthly allocations to everybody has turned the country to a zoo. We no longer know who our foes are and who our brothers are.

You can clearly see barcanista cheering gleefully about the Niger Delta receiving 13 percent derivation and further begging for an increase to 25 percent.

Meanwhile the value of Ijaw wealth that has been lost over the past 40 years is over 500 billion dollars and if you add the opportunity cost of environmental degradation and societal decay foisted upon everybody by the Nigerian state, it goes even higher.

Preye, I don't know if your kinsmen know, that the most critical problem facing the world today is not terrorism or insecurity but of poverty and socioeconomic development. Your kinsmen have instant wealth and economic development under their mouths but they can't eat it because their mouths have been shut by the country you were all roped in.

Tell your kinsmen to WAKE UP! Nigeria kills faster than Cancer.
