Actually I think you people are crying more than the bereaved

The Igbos have never had any problem with there South South neighbors

When the time comes
There will be better agreement because the South South will also gain from strategic relationship with the Igbos

The Igbos are industrialist and industrious
South South will benefit from the revenue that will come from industrialization in the East as a result of goods moving through there ports

They have so much to benefit
Via revenues
There is no disadvantage whatsoever

That's how landlocked Southern African countries and Eastern African countries benefit from each other
With no problems whatsoever

So how will problem now arise when the two regions have a lot to benefit

So your worries ain't necessary


That's a lie.

The South-southerners don't want anything to do with Biafra and you know it.
Some of them even never sell land to Igbos.

But who cares really-- it is not my business.

Mumu, you think the president and people of Benin are into charity with their source of earnings, you block your border refusing their goods from entering your country and you expect them to allow you useless product pass through their country, is the audacity and entitlement mentality from most of you fools for me.

They are aware of that. It's the reason they want some ND territories so as to have access to the Bight of Benin

Who is talking about them having anything to do with Biafra

They have Niger Delta republic

Igbos have there own

The two nations will have a good relationship and things that will benefit them mutually

Malaysia and Singapore were one Nation before
But later went there ways

Today they collaborate well to each others benefits and they are doing exceptionally well with each having a sound Economy

An Igbo Nation side by side with a Niger Delta Nation
The benefits the two will derive
Only someone myopic or can't see well will doubt the potential these two carry

Benin is a puppet country controlled by France which is angry at Niger for driving them out of their country.

Before the coup France was paying 8 Euros for a KG of Uranium, today Niger is selling its Uranium at 200 Euros per KG and they are bitter about it. Niger is currently the fastest growing economy in Africa, believe me many citizens of Niger Republic doing menial jobs like shoeshiner, Okada, Helper in Nigeria are moving back home gradually.
There will be concerted efforts to sabotage their new found freedom from French and American imperialism.

In order to deal with France because of its support for Ukraine, Russia is buying Uranium at international rate from Niger and Iran will start buying soon which means more money.

Russia is also supplying them with free grains and fertiliser and training their forces to fight terrorism brutally like Russia does (called human rights violation by the west).

To show that they are serious, the leader of ISIS in West Africa who has a $10m bounty on his head by America for 10 years was killed this week and the story is here on Nairaland.
The leader of bandits in Sokoto was captured by Nigerien forces who entered Nigeria at Illela Sokoto its also here on Nairaland FP this week.



The thread is about Benin and Niger but meanwhile South East which is a recent political creation is landlocked but neither Igboland nor Eastern region is landlocked


This got nothing to do with the puppet crap. Niger stop allowing Benin trucks to pass its territory and Benin have many times tried to work with them but they declined. They see Benin and other west African nations as traitors. it is right for Benin to stop their shipment on its own soil too.

Only difference is that Benin allowed it to reach the port before stopping it, now China will be forced to intervene cos its money is involved, the Niger will do the needful sharply, Benin gets its truck across Niger again.


That’s how geopolitics works.

French warship landed in Benin to give support to ECOWAS planned military intervention in Niger and there was palpable fear of invasion back then which led to the land border closure by Niger, all that is required now is for Benin to give assurance to Niger that its territory will not be used to attack Niger by any foreign forces. Also note that Niger pays oil transit fees to Benin for the shipments

France will not go to a direct war with Niger or any of the Sahel without Ecowas support, plus Russian involvement kinda complicated things for them.

That aside, the issue above for nothing to do with the french or the ecowas. It’s a case of, you block my trucks from passing through your country, why should I allow yours to ship from my ports. It’s a tit for tat diplomacy.

Why did Niger block the trucks?
It was because of threats from France and ECOWAS, they had to invite Russia knowing that the west will not want a confrontation with Russia which has official invitation in Niger

I’ve stated that in my first comment.

Let me rephrase it like I would for a 10yrs old.

Benin : You can’t consider me an enemy, block me from using your road to export my goods but want to use my port to ship your stuff. Open your roads back for my export route and you can continue to use my port.

How’s this too hard to understand ? How's this a France or ecowas thing instead the Benin president reciprocating same favor.

NO Igbo in Southern states aka SS only RESIDENTS as they are RESIDENTS in every other part of Nigeria.

With the new law that to renew passport one needs Certificate of Origin and with my brothers from same roots in Delta who cannot be easily manipulated( Urhobos, Isokos and Itsekiris), RESIDENTS aka Indigenous Igbos in Delta will be SEPARATED from ABORIGINALS.

Bitter truth is, the present government will rule for 8 yrs, only God can stop it. Nigerians should brace up for this..... Next is North/ Middle Belt and if Obi wants to be VP, he must be humble, cooperative and apologetic on behalf of his mob, IPOB OBEDIENTS in 2 major ways: 1) That all false histories on Wikipedia, Google and Social media about Southern states including Ijaw towns like Opobo and Bonny( my Bonny friend no dey use eye see Igbo man) and Delta North be pulled down ... 2) A SIGNED accord that there will be no creation of any nonsense, extra state in South aka SS....If not, if we see an Igbo man who has been CONFIRMED to be ANTI-BIAFRA who will not suppress Southern States or annex their States maybe, Umuahi after due diligence on him. But age might not let him shoot it up to Presidency level.... However, ifa Niger Delta man presents self as VP, he may be more acceptable as usual..... Thereafter, Niger Delta s as President ( No Emilokan will be allowed).

With the present hate of Easterners over Southerners, they may lose both Biafra and Presidency , make e no cause high BP Sha.

If Nigeria disintegrates, Fulanis will conquer and own yoruba coastline to have access to the sea, just like they conquered illorin. They will continue from where they stopped in Kwara. grin

Oga shut up there they are eating and harvesting organs for ritual purposes in SW. And mind you in Germany they have a 4 day work week and they are more productive than ever. Also note that even with 4 days we have a better per capita income than you guys. We are not shouting e bi pa wa oooo in SE you guys are. So have sense even if it is small.


Cannibalism has never been our culture, but that can't be said of you.

The Colonialists still found you digging up dead bodies to eat like savages.

About Germany, I know you are lying, but it is okay...
Europe has a 40 hr work week and most industries do 8hr days.

So now, you are working 4 days because you are more productive?
🤣

...and you have better per capita income?
Is that why most of you flee your region at the slightest chance?
Clown!
