You better understand nigeria n politics, even with 1 trillion dollars you can't put one block on any federal controlled facility if they don't want it. The first step is to install an igbo friendly presidency, not necessarily an igbo president. Only then can you talk of these things

Why is it difficult for you all to lobby? Why are you making it difficult to see things in the light of hate and love? You can achieve anything by finding the best possible ways of solving it.

Why can't the Igbo's partner with Chinese companies and front them to place it on the table of the federal government. We have soft spot for the whites, right?

MXrep:

What happened to Geometric that would has solved power problems in Aba long ago?? Abuja can do and undo any region anytime with the present structure, we must work hard to be at peace with abuja before any of these can work. We should stop dreaming of economic power without political power. Igbo presidency for now is not feasible, the best bet is an igbo friendly presidency probably with igbo VP

If we are ready to develop as a region, we will not embark on it like foolish people. We will embark on it like smart minds. We are losing grounds and we cannot wait for God to give us Igbo friendly president.

Make peace with the president and when it comes to the next election, carefully study the best candidate that has a shot at the big seat, give him 3million votes and 500million and see him look the other way towards your drive. Why so strict when it comes to doing things?

Our people are out there dying in their numbers while some are been displaced. They have converted to survival mode. You will see a common trader has dumped trading to push drugs. You are recently seeing the advent of ritual killing coming up these days in our region. These vices were dead during the early parts of 2000, now they are coming back.

Igbo's are on a high testosterone level now. They are thinking of doing anything to survive. Quite a huge number of them are doing things they have not been doing before. We have do something about the southeast economy. Let's create a working economy in the east so that we can protect and secure our future. We can comfortably face our fears once and for all.

You seem to underestimate Abuja. If Abuja is not sympathetic to your cause, you are wasting time

We will not wait on God. we better start hyping a prospective VP and wooing a marketable presidential material in the NOrth. Even at that, there is no assurance in anything, we just have to put in our best an move on with whatever result

What you said is not peculiar to igbos alone, the country is in economic mess and there is no way igbos will be immune to it, i even think igbos are the least affected

MXrep:

You people don't get it, you can just start "development" without approval from the Feds

The state governors should get the approvals

MXrep:

This line of thought is very unhealthy. The Igbo mind is wired differently from other tribes. when they don't have, they look for ways to get whatever they want. The painful part is that Igbo men and women do not have boundaries, they keep going until they find anything (good or bad) to do. More so, we are a people of close to 50million people, and its not just another tribe. You can keep Igbo's down politically but very dangerous keeping Igbo's down economically. They will sure want to break out.

You might call your stand a realist stand but the truth is, it is a defeatist stand.

The perfect power play is that, we shouldn't be close to power at all. Let us just sign a bargain with them and let us get the right policies. That's all.

ChimaAdeoye:


Exactly.
Igbos really don't need presidency now. Igbos need to live in freedom, away from oppression from anyone. If Biafra is what freedom means, then we should all support it. If restructured Nigeria will bring freedom, then so be it.

That presidency thing is a mere distraction that can be tackled later. For now supporting a northern progressive such as Atiku will make more sense as we address this issue of treating Igbos as second class citizens of Nigeria and the SE as an alien territory.

Let us deal with the big issues first.

You have always been a great thinker and couldn't have said it any better. At least, I am relieved we have people who can actually sit the fuk down and analyze our conditions without being too emotional.
What Ndigbo need is to shun that ignorant talk of Igbo President because it makes us look ignorant, foolish and pathetic and focus on things we have control of. Like have all the eastern state form a synergy and motorize an aggressive economic revolution that will place the economy of this continent on our palms. Look at the Jews of the world and tell me how a very small group of immigrants gained control over the economy of the greatest country on earth without actually becoming a president.
Another example, black American cried and clamored for a black president as if it will change their situation and after 8yrs in power what change did having a black president bring to them
They are still the poorest, uneducated and crime ridden and even while Obama was still in power blacks were being slaughtered like cows. Ndigbo think, because as soon as you land that Presidential seat you will never open your mouths again to complain. Let's be quiet and do so ground work.

Just like many people had said on this pages, I do not support an Igbo president for Nigeria. This will be a very huge mistake. There are people waiting for the Igbos to get on top and that is when all negative policies will be unleashed by just about every other person who is not happy just to frustrate the region. All the actions of the president will be scrutinized so much that he cannot speak Igbo for 4 years, because nobody will allow him a second tenure.

How many senate presidents were replaced within 8 years between 1999-2007? 5 senate presidents! The Igbo president may not last 6 months before being impeached.

They have held the Igbos down but unfortunately, they have not progressed either. The Igbos need to be patient, we need to be smart and hold on while this contraption implodes.

I agree with you.
But USA is open to anybody, immigrant or citizens who has sth positive to contribute.
Nigeria doesn't and actually have a way of shutting down those with good ideas.
So, how do Igbos get control without politics?

The answer is NO WAY. Man is a political animal, no matter the amount of money you have and your good intentions towards development, the power in Abuja can frustrate you if you are not in their good books

OreMI22:


I have always known chima in this forum and defunct anambra forum as a hifhly cerebral individual that objectively analyzes a situation without sentiments. Those children hoping that fulani will suddenly give them igbo presidency should WAKE UP! It is simply a ploy to prevent igbo from focussing on biafra so fulani have more years to loot Nigeria

For me, we should focus on Biafra and forget the gimmick fulani are playing paying lip service to Igbo presidency. They hace no intentions for that and it serves as an emotional distraction to igbos. While fulanis continue to loot Nigeria and search for oil in ths north as part of their ultimate agenda for their AREWA republic.

So we focus on Biafra on one hand and support another fulani crook, Atiku, on the other hand as ChimaAdeoye said?! Does that make any sense to you?

If we keep waiting for abuja people to tell us when to develop our region, then we are not better than the minorities in our country. Even the minorities are having a field day with many developments coming their way and many not getting close to ours. Its better we study the abuja cabals very well and align with the winning team and just get the right policies to help us develop the region.

Igbos have always been moving with the winning team since tome immemorial, so, what are you saying? Esp since 99
Even in this regime, we have senators and ministers attached to the party. Which other alignment do you want?

We did not have a plan and if we did, the plan was to allow the yorubas rule, then the hausas rule, it will later be our turn to rule the country. We have later found out that, ruling this country doesnt have any economic importance to the development of the region.
Now, we want to go into alliance with people that will support our independent development as a people. We are making alliances with a mission and when we achieve our aim, they will beg us to rule this country because we will end up suck all their economic opportunities and everyone will see the southeast as the golden egg to be kept safe and do whatever it takes to keep us.

Anyone can work towards the independent development of the east. Even the so-called northerners can be of great help to our plan. If you give them the presidential slot thats supposed to go for the igbos in 2023, for us to service our economic development plan for the next 20 years uninterrupted, they will buy the idea. An igbo president will always be a stooge of the north and for whatever reason we might think it will favour us, it will not favour us one bit because they will scuttle every move we make to do anything in the east. They will even see our economic plan as the president sponsoring the plan.

We need bulk of our population in the east, because apart from the killings we experience in the north and economic sabotage in the west. Many of our people are dying due to constant travel from one region to the other. We can keep our people safe in the east and any way we can get it done should be adopted by everyone.

The plan is huge and very deep and its not what we can just say in the surface. We will need enough power to see it come into fruition.
