I'm glad you succinctly and in summary ably put down 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 behind schedule. It's still a question of time.

N-Delta youths kick against building of NLNG Dry-dock in Badagry

on August 07, 2015 / in News 12:48 am / Comments



PORT HARCOURT—Youth groups in Niger Delta have threatened to shut down the operations of Nigerian Liquefied Natural Gas Company, NLNG, in their communities of the region, especially in Rivers State over the alleged location of its Drydock in Badagry, Lagos.

The youths drawn from the six states of Niger Delta, while briefing newsmen in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, said it was wrong for NLNG to abandon the region where it has its base to site a project that will provide jobs for youths of the region in Lagos.

Spokesman of the youths, Mr Simeon Wilcox, said the youths want the management of NLNG operating in Bonny, Rivers State to make public their position on the recent news of the location of its Drydock in Badagry, Lagos.

There will be NO Biafran referendum in ANY SS or Ijaw territory. Or will the Igbos force referendum on our own land? You guys seem to be ignorant.

Any referendum will be on Igbo SE soil. Ask the Scot, Crimeans and South Sudanese.

Somebody is scared stiff about the numbers on the ground compared to his internet musings

MrAnalyst:
Leader of the now rested Arewa Peoples
Congress (APC), Alhaji Sagir Ringim has said
that the ongoing clamour for the creation of
the Independent State of Biafra was a ploy to
colonize the South-South.
The Waziri Ringim told Vanguard that
agitation by the Nnamdi Kanu led IPOB was a
calculated effort to capture the economic
prospects of the minority ethnic nationality in
the oil rich region.
He said, “Those Indigenous People of Biafra
have a hidden agenda to recolonize the South-
south, capture the region, colonize the oil field
for the betterment of the Igbos.”
Speaking further, the northern leader said
that Biafra is not blessed with solid minerals
apart from coal, saying that the geology of
the region can’t support an independent
country.
The former Intelligent officer of the Nigerian
Army explained that “because of these natural
shortcomings Igbos survived as a diaspora race
than any dominant group in Nigeria”.
Ringim opined that “if the Indigenous People
of Biafra are now saying that yes, we want to
have Biafra, what are you going to do with
more than three quarter of the Igbos who are
outside the East, those in Kano, those in Lagos
what are you going to do with then? You take
all those people then go back to Biafra? They
have no houses to live, they have no means of
livelihood.”
Waziri Ringim dismissed IPOB activities as
orchestrated blackmail to arm-twist other
stakeholders in the polity for more economic
advantage.

You think another man is a f00l yet your opinion fall below the human benchmark, are you a goat?

See them trying to divide and rule. Yes, that worked for decades but people don wise now. The East and "SOUTH SOUTH" are one and don't want to be wearing bedsheets like una for Kano

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.

I came here simply to laugh.
I literally just came across this article on radio Biafra fb page. As I was reading the comments, I repeatedly kept saying to my best friend (we both literally just reading it right now) that on this forum where anyone can pretend to be anybody, there's going to be a huge contrast unlike on FB where fake ids can easily be detected.

Compare and contrast for unaselves y'all. I literally screenshooted every SS comment on that page about this exact article. Both that condemned and supported it. Now compare and contrast

BTW: there names are scscratched out for their own privacy. Likewise any comment you see scratched off as well as the name, the commenter was from SE whose comment was between a comment from two SS. I deliberately made sure to exclude SE on this screen shots.

Btw: funny thing, majority of this comments are not anioma or river Igbo. In fact most of the aniomas and river Igbo I met on that fb page didn't even comment on the topic.

Realman87:
Where is Barcanista and his fake 'we SS'. He will be nominated for the award of 'nairaland's most hatefilled poster'. Where is Edo born Spanishkid and his ilk. Lol. Idiots.

spanishkid:
you're the biggest fool on planet earth. Tonyebarcanista speaks the truth and he's not a igbo hater. You're igbos are the most greedy and most covetous people on earth. You cry of marginalization and yet you want to lump SS into your failed project. I have nothing regret calling you names and your tribe flàtheads.

TonyeBarcanista:

Not all Anioma is Igbo please. We can give them Oshimili(abi how them call am sef?)

christopher123:


What is wrong with this ijaw man...who are you to tell us who is igbo or not

You are getting nastier by the day

Can you pls respect yourself and stop meddling in igbo affairs ...you have been running around nairaland spreading hate and division for igbo yet they leave you

Don't you have a job to do

Ijaws are becoming redundant.. Oil prices is crashing so Nigerians ain't taking you guys seriously again

Rose2014:


The guy is not making any sense at all.
His argument is dead on arrival

By the way, my grandma told me there are Igbo communities in Jigawa
