u are being more stewpid dan the person u qouted.. Wen i tot i have heard stewpidity in spew of one person, then comes along the most stewpid of them all.. Illogical Hatreds on urselves, all has made many of u stewpid, attaching dis tribal slur around it doesnt make it any identifying.. Most of u all from various tribes are stewpid and lies within the confluence of most depraved, illogically selfish, lieing, callous and irrational commoners. How many of these commander in theives called politicians wif their retardd loots fight the way most of you fight here for notting.. The ediots dont even fight themselves rather they mix u lots up in tribal venom and go attend their daughters n sons weddings inviting joe and music artist, with over 50 aircraft for guest with una own money in loots... Many of una no get sense at all. There is nothing wrong with everyone or region operating as a protectorate or similar tribes on their forts as regional governments or federating unit as it used to be, dissolve n decentralise dis stupidity in abuja, while every tribe develop at its own pace and we all dictate wat we expect from abuja or d central government.. Then we can truly mount pressure as a tribe on d government we have right on our own soil to be subject to our central hope of rapid growth, change, civilisation and development and still travel to each others region to admire or inspire progress we are making as protectectorates, complementing each other... This is wat this criminals in government dont want, n instead una go fight them, una they fight una selves.. Na wa o..

Well, this country has gone beyond living in unity with one another; Water don pass garri.

Marginalization & Nepotism is the order of the day.
in fact there is no guarantee that Nepotism and tribalism will not be worse in our so called oduduwa,biafra or arewa enclaves. Charly boy is right.what we need is a national biafra

Below is a letter made available to PoliticsNGR, written by Charlyboy Oputa to Igbos warning them over the Agitation for Biafra. It reads;

Letter To Fellow Biafrans: I know some of my Igbo brothers and sisters are not happy with me simply because I have not used My Brand as CharlyBoy to advocate for the clamour of The Biafran state.

However, like I always say, there is more than one way to achieve a purpose. Though I may disagree with my Igbo brothers and sisters on the choice of rhetorics and methodology, our objectives are to a large extent identical because we all want to bring an end to the marginalisation of the common peoples, by the evil cabals who are holding Nigeria to a ransom and getting away with their obnoxious impunity and criminality.

Those who truly know and have followed me know that I am not a Group soul and I have always dared to follow the path least travelled in the continuous struggle to add value to my environment.

It is indeed laughable that despite being a native chicken, Nwa afo, son of Biafran soil with a full-blown Igbotic blood, I have been persistently labelled a wannabe Yoruba, Hausa, Tiv and an Ijaw man simply because I have consistently maintained that I believe in the unity of Nigeria.

To start with, I go like tell una sey you may not be totally wrong if you call me the man from all tribes in Nigeria. This is because I believe in the oneness of all Nigerian peoples. I believe that we have gotten to a point in our national history where a Yoruba man cannot live in isolation of an Igbo man. Likewise, an Ijaw man cannot live in isolation of a Hausa/Fulani man. All tribes in Nigeria today have become a mat of interwoven fibres that cannot be segregated. There have so far been intertribal marriages, intertribal business ownership, and intertribal partnership; and countless other intertribal collaborations and relationships in Nigeria.

For this reason, my question to those agitating for secession would be that if each tribe decide to secede from Nigeria today, what then would happen? Who would lead the new nations?

Will the people be happy? Will injustice be defeated in the new societies? Will criminality end in leadership positions? Will there be happiness in the new nations? Will the people finally have a country to call their own? – These are important questions we must ask ourselves and provide answers to before we even start to beat the drums of secession.

Having said that, I must state that whereas I am a Biafran at heart, what should engage our minds is not a sectional Biafra but a national Biafra. The fight for nationalists who will drive the discourse and the engagement necessary in answering the Nigeria National Questions must not be bogged down by petty sentiments, tribal colorations, and religious propaganda. The failure of the Igbo nation and all Nigerian tribes and peoples is the fault of influence peddlers and directionless decision makers.

The crux of the Biafran agitation is that my people are tired of a system that has perpetually failed them. My Igbo kinsmen are tired of a system that enriches the rich and impoverishes the poor. My people are tired of a system that glorifies impunity and criminality. My people are tired of decades of oppression and marginalization. However, the deeply rooted disgruntlement in Biafra land is not peculiar to my Igbo brothers and sisters alone; all the common peoples in the 500 tribes in Nigeria are victims of a failed system and persistent oppression. And this is essentially where I disagree with my brother Nnamdi Kanu that though Biafra is right, it should be a national cause and not a sectional one.

Let me be clear: The Brand CharlyBoy is not only a Global brand but also a national brand that should not be reduced to a sectional brand.

The problem in this nation is not the lack of a space where we all can coexist but the lack of men of integrity and progressive nationalists. We lack the right kind of leadership that will fight for the interest of the common people. And if at all there would be an agitation, it should be geared towards sanitizing the currently bastardized Nigerian system. Our agitation for Biafra should be about having the right leaders in positions of power and not power drunken people with an insatiable appetite to plunder and loot.

Therefore, my people, I insist that the suffering of the People from the South East is also the suffering of the people from the other geopolitical zones in Nigeria. And the oppression of the Igbo people is also the oppression of all Nigerian peoples. An injury to one is an injury to all. A Biafra state is not going to change the players of the game, it will only exacerbate the sufferings of the victims of the game.

In conclusion, my people, let us dutifully work ourselves back into reckoning by fighting for Fairness, Justice, and Equality for all Nigerians; Not Ibos Only; Yorubas Only or Hausas Only but all Nigerians.

It's amazing how some people clamoring for viagra think its going to be some utopia where everything will be perfect and forgetting that it's the same people (and possibly the same leaders) with the same mentality and the same character that are going to be there only now with no structure and people living under a devastating blockade that the Nigerian govt is sure to impose.

This your position on this is all about your brand..but let me remind all of us that secession is not the end of our relationship with others..it's just like a Nigerian having relationship with a Ghanaian ..A Biafran citizen can as well decide to nationalise and become an Arewa or Oduduwa citizen if he feels more at home in his choice country or as well apply for a resident,working or student permit if need be.Me I don't see any thing too bad with this whole thing..each country with their own embassy that will take charge of citizens problems and investments within the neighboring countries..

Good one, Charlie. I am a fellow Onye Igbo and I totally agree with u. We have formed a group called ADN (Association of Detribalised Nigerians) and just by your expressed views you are already a member. We believe the haters, tribal jingoists, and separatists are actually a small but very vocal minority. Our aim is to wake up the sleeping giant of vast majority of Nigerians who are capable of loving their tribes without hating other tribes or wanting separation from them.
thank you for that. I am also an Igbo man and believe that Nigeria problem can't be solved by fallen back to ethnic line. The major cause of Nigeria problems is lack of foresight and lack of patriotism especially from the angle of our leaders. The many ethnic agitations going on, coupled with hate speeches, only adds insults to injury by keeping our enemies (leaders) at rest. Nigerians must come together and demand for good leadership.
Biafra can't construct road, it's the leaders
Biafra can't secure the Biafrans, it's leadership
Biafra can't build railways, it's leadership
Biafra can't put food on our table, good leadership can
Any country can do most things befitting for their citizens only with good leaders. Biafra can't be created from moon but from same people that has helped in crumbling Nigeria and therefore, there will not be difference. We should gear our energy towards forcing the leaders to doing what they're elected to do

What will you rather prefer be done in achieving a United Nigeria? Because its very obvious that you lots are comfortable with the way the country is...!



No I'm not comfortable but truth be told there can ever be a perfect country. In foreign countries for example there at still racism, in developing countries like Nigeria corruption, marginalization and nepotism can only be minimized but can't be eradicated completely from this part of the world no matter what. But we need to unite and stay together as one. One Nigeria is the way and true federalism is the solution. A country that breaks away tends to be weak and poor in most cases but the one that unite tends to progress and have more in sufficient.
