stop the stupid propaganda!

the average northerner hates the igbo man with everything in him - thats why any slightest opportunity he will use it to attack and kill him!

tell me - how many times have you heard an igbo man attacked any of the numerous northern brothers of your residing in the east!

we know you are an aboki that grew up in igbo land i will advise you to go to your northern brothers and preach them to understand that the average igbo man doesnt hate them nor have time to hate anybody at that - we are just after our peaceful survival!
You spoke well.

Are all these businesses paying the right tax to the state gov't? It doesn't make sense that Anambra has these plenty number of industries and other businesses, yet they don't record at least 4 billion naira per-month in IGR!

And can someone in gov't please send staff down to that industrial area on a sunday to sweep the streets of all that accumulated sand and sediment on the roads! Or ask the businesses there to organise themselves to get it done on a regular basis! This is part of what leadership is about.....not sitting on your ass in Awka, and not knowing what's going on in all corners of your state!

when they left southeast and went to katsina to construct rail lines that will lead to niger republic thinking they are punishing ndi igbo i just laughed at their ignorance.

its only myopic people that doesn't know the huge economic role southeast plays not only for Nigeria but for west africa as a whole!

Onitsha, aba and owerri has the highest number of dangote trucks visiting the region after lagos. it has the highest number of goods transported from the north and vise-versa more than any other state aside lagos!

now you can begin to imagine the huge economic importance of rail lines in this region linking it to lagos, kano and port harcourt.

And the more amazing thing is that all you're seeing is down to individual effort of Igbo gov'ts and entrepreneurs. All this is inspite of them trying to relegate the south-east region behind theirs in terms of provision of infrastructure like airports, railways, roads and sea/river ports!

Okoroawusa:

My thoughts exactly.
But I like the way he brought it up. Some people are bent on brainwashing the Igbo youths of this generation into hatred n views that the average northerner is their problem while it's not through. Northerners have been living in Onitsha even before the creation of Nigeria.

The name Fegge is from Niger State. Growing up in Onitsha before the war, my father said Bida,Haruna, Sokoto n Niger Streets were enclaves of the Hausas n the heart of the North-East trade.

They can call it anything but the truth remains that igbos patronage often determine the success of a business.if you know the number of terminals(warehouse) dangote cement has in only Anambra you will marvel,much more other Southeastern states.I think we are the highest patronizers of Dangote businesses so that's why they don't want us igbos to ever leave this entity called Nigeria but bigotry wouldn't allow Dem other parts of Nigeria acknowledge it. @op you are doing a good job.we all need each other in all fairness not in persecution as the people in the helm of government are doing to ndi igbo.

Hundreds of trucks every where

If you tell the same Hausa/Fulani people to link Onitsha with railway to these northern cities, so that these northern business people will easily transport their products via rail to & from Onitsha, they will shout that they don't want Southeast included in the national railway masterplan! They'll rather build a rail line to Niger Republic than in Southeast where their people conduct most of their sales.

Meanwhile, it's their people that will benefit immensely from it the way Dangote benefits immensely from every single building erected in Southeast! That is why Nigeria is such a sorry Sh*thole place!

.....also the Portuguese brought the name Biafra to Africa but a group of people who the name never concerned decided to corner and possess the name because they feel inferior to coin a name for their new country. They don't even know the meaning of the name. What a shame for advocates of the name Biafra

We've had two southern Christian presidents who ruled for 14 years combined since 1999 and never thought of what you're talking about, you never thought of telling or reminding them in the first place.

It's the Northerners that are your problem for not fixing anything, continue blaming and your sh*thole continue stinking to high heavens.

Be deceiving yourself. Go up north and check the trade between Nigeria and Niger.
Every region in this country is serviced by the North for raw materials both mineral and agricultural produce.

There you go again with your usual lies and propaganda. The Portuguese met us as biafrans. If you're in doubt, that we are not biafrans, kindly tell us the name we bear before that thief that called himself lord lugard came to this part of the world.

Very important after the most important which is Lagos. I wonder why the owner of the most important state ain't beating their chest like you runners up which is even debatable.

Your tribe should lower it pride, the level of your insignicancy was established after the war. The noise you make is only for your gullible tribesmen so make we hear word.
