'Those who make peaceful change impossible,makes violent change inevitable'.... 'the denial of our rights is an invitation to fight for it'.....the bombing in south-south and the Biafra uprising in the south-East,this may be the beginning of the end of this forced marriage called Nigeria. Everybody on his own,God for us all! |

Re: 2016 Budget South East Gets Lowest Allocation by Nobody: 9:11am On Jun 10, 2016 |
we should applaud the Federal government for their mercy, considering the southeast is just a favor, they are technically not Nigerians,and majority of their indigenes stay in other regions, hence the wise decision 2 Likes |

Nigeria is a multi national state, a mere geographical expression. Those who knows the history of this country would know that we aren't one and wouldn't be no matter how hard we try to cover the truth. One day, it would speak for itself. |

Re: 2016 Budget South East Gets Lowest Allocation by agabusta: 9:59am On Jun 10, 2016 |
Are people not looking at demographics again in the allocation of projects? Kano and Lagos host a sizable number of Nigerians and they are expected to have the highest allocation of projects (infrastructure). All these roadside journalists sef. I just hope they wont give us problems in this country. Must everything be tribalized?? 1 Like |
