This is good  the people of northern Nigeria pls kindly remember that your problem is not from igbos or their neighbours,looking at the sharing formula it is sad for unproductive states earning more than oil producing state,at list u will agree with me that 4 the past 30 years your people were in charge of appointing  who will be the next minister of oil&gas in Nigeria nobody ever challenged you,the whole country was basically run and manipulated by northern leaders,and they only enrich themselves and-the rest of the country living in poverty, corruption was like a way of life in Nigeria now every part of the system is corrupt and who's fault is it?

But i must thank the merciful Allah for touching your hearts and hopfully one day it will come to past

NorthSharp:

I have never heard any Northerner who would be as foolish as to blame the Igbos, or any ethnic group for that matter, for whatever problems who have in the North.

If we were that silly, there would not have been MILLIONS of Igbos STILL living and doing so incredibly well in their businesses in the North.

Onlytruth:

The Igbo in the North are there MAINLY because they are naturally thick skinned and are prepared to rought it out there. It does not necessarily mean that you Northerners protect them. That is why they fall casualty disproportionately than other southerners living in the North

There are at least hundreds of thousands of Hausa/Fulanis living in the East and doing well there too. In fact they enjoy more peace than Igbos in the North.

Look, not to beat my chest, but we Igbo have ONE thing we do quite well, and that is COPY good cultures, whether African or non-African. That is why we copied western education and quickly embraced it till date. We copy anything good and try our best to reject bad things.
There is at least ONE thing you Hausa/Fulai should copy from we Igbo, and that is the culture of PROTECTING FOREIGNERS IN YOUR LAND.
In any crisis, we endeavor to protect foreigners, or at least allow them safe passage return to their home lands.

Why don't you Northerners do the same?

Like kidnap a sitting Governor, kill NBA Chairman with his wife because he criticised. Razed down a whole community because they a strangers even of same stock wt you. Disrespect people right in you land. Sell fake DRUGS to the wholw nation.
You do not know yourself or have no shame. The lastime that man did not recieve an award because of who you are.
You are so wise that you have started you 2015 campaign by either calling someone Aboki, Yorunba, fisherman or tell him to go sitdown or convert his land to frontiers of war with Hause people.

Firstly, this thread is just about expressing hurt and no more. There is no seriousness or intent, rather it is a call out of pain to be respected. I strongly believe that every human deserves respect, no matter their position. It deeply unfair to rail at the common person from the core-North for the offence due to their elite; there is no pain greater that from being unjustly accused. The call for mutual respect is in order, lets strive to abide by it.

For my core-Northern brothers, respect aside, there are many uncomfortable things you are sweeping under the carpet. These things are deeply painful to people from other sections and cannot be avoided. It shouldn't only be about your pain, but "our pain."

The first on the list is the constant rioting under the guise of religion that claims Southern lives so cheaply, like a persons entire lifetime of being nutured by loving parents and finding their steps in life is the equivalent of a used sheet of toilet roll. Many of you act like that is no issue.

There is boko haram and the fact that many core-Northerners are upset at being ruled by a person from a Southern minority group; some even threatened to make the country ungovernable. A very deeply troubling point.
It would also seem that the sudden desire to leave Nigeria is largely due to this factor.

There is also the fact that a mere handful of your elite make more money from oil than the entire Niger Delta, yet most core-Northerners couldn't give a toss if the average ND person died of cancer or asthma due to pollution; so long as the oil money comes to your state. [size=18pt]Indeed there was no grumbling when Hon. Bala Ibn Na’Allah from Kebbi State claimed that that[i] "nothing was wrong in sacrificing 20 million people to protect over 150 million people" in response to Yar Adua's sending the JTF to kill and rap'e.[/i][/size]

The issue of 10 million almajiri's also needs to be mentioned. They are the biggest security risk to the nation and a core-Northern problem.

Of course, we can all survive and prosper without each other, the human is the greatest resource not oil, but the fact remains that we have been driven to this point by poor leadership.
Anyway's, if we are splitting, lets find buyers for the bits and pieces of Abuja, cos everything will need to be sold by the ND as part-compensation.

No it is because of the poverty in their land. They go there to look for oil money. You runaway to greener pasture, or like an osu, to USA to find liberty. Dont derail this thread, Ezekpochuchu suala ashi half of Nairaland- Childish bigotry.

aboki go and eat poo,bloody illiterate,at list your Father could have send you to almajiri school so that u can write  in Arabic,English is not by force,you monkey!!

So people de eat that thing. That will be what your people will eat when what you have been advocating happans. Civil War don do people shege, so how does poo your breakfast taste?

ak47mann:

niger delta are being use by other groubs in Nigeria, the people living their to them are like geanue pigs,let them die from pollution from oil spills who cares,that is evil,sacrificing 20million people for 150 million that sound like what saddam Hussein will say when he was alive,i keep telling these people that Nigeria is not a country but they don't listen but one day they will if it is not too late by-then,i have seen were an hausa man calling calabar man yamiri,they don't no the different from core igbos to there neighbours some haven't been there all their miserable life,they will say yes Ngwa man is not igbo because his elites have oil wells in ngwa village,so they better separate them as much as possible,i can give it to them sha they really try with their divide and conquer tactist.

If you ask GEJ what he have seen in that aso rock trust me by now minorities will be shouting they want out,but he will not say it cus his swore under Constitution not to reveal secret,

bakila:

Monkey's Friend, what are you still doing here with Ngwaland Oil? It is noted that Hausas call a Calaber Calabar Nyamuri, they are not wrong. When one Rebel rebel ranawy ran away from his war, it was a certian Calaber Calabar man that rescued his people.

Save Ngwa matter for the SNC, which this thread is about. All you want is for Nigeria to breakup. When that day comes you will know that you guys eat with the Northern Elites.

@Ak47mann and @phreakabit

Even when we are talking about the serious issue of serparation in peace and having different countries , out of habit you cant resist hurling insults at the aboki, almajiri, goro chewing mallams. It is of course hard to change habits especially those caused by the gutter upbringing you guys must have suffered. Any way, away from all that my post is to congratulate the northerners in advance for the definite beginning of separation from the south and to encourage our brethren whose eyes are now wide open to the great advantages ahead when we have the true independence and have no southerners without visas in the north.
1. Resource;
It is right for me to start with resource, control of which has been rammed into our ears ad infinitum. Oil is a natural resource that is in vogue and extremely valuable within the last 2 centuries because fossil fuel is used to drive engines. There are numerous other natural and equally precious resources obtained from the land. But you have to have the land first before finding out what it may contain. Land on its own is a natural recourse of profound importance after all it is the pieces of land joined together that make the world. We all know the importance of land and what misery and conflicts arise from lack of it. My Igbo friends are well aware of the importance of land. The deadly land war that claimed 50 lives in Ebonyi state is a recent reminder to how precious land is to people.
I will remind you that the north has an abundance of this resource. Oyo state is the state with the largest land area among the southern states but its 28.454 sq km places it at no. 14 in Nigeria with the first 13 coming from the North and Niger state (76.363sqkm) is 2.6 times the size of Oyo state and 10 times the size of the largest Igbo state –Enugu (7.161sqkm). The entire 5 Igbo states amount to only half the size of Borno state. Compare the ratio of population per sq meter for the agricultural state of Kwara 64.4 persons per sq meter to that of Anambra State 863.3 persons per sq meter even before they all move back there. These comparisons can go on and on and we know that there is no northern state that has no confirmed mineral deposits,, Iron ore lead and zinc in Benue, Uranium, lead and Zinc in Bauchi, Copper and glass in Kano, Tin columbite and tantalite in plateau, Sapphire, aqua marine, gold etc in Kaduna. Gold and lead in Sokoto kebbi and zamfara. All of you know the crude gold mining going on especially in Niger and Zamfara states giving some people a life support but unfortunately killing so many children. All these need to be refined; we need the support of expert mining countries like South Africa, Chile, China and Australia. I will talk about trade and employment next and then agriculture.
