I don’t really like to look at past mistakes except I want to see what I could have done better and put it into my going forward. Not even mop about what I could have done about it in the past. It happened, it happened. The whole issues about pogrom or genocide is just a long story for the history books and holding on to the past is not going to make you go forward so what do you do? Look to the nearest and far future.

The problems you have is not different from the problems that plague other parts of the country which is basically economics. I will always say until the inhabitants of the South East start looking towards developing the economics of the South East as a whole and not of certain people living in the South East, nothing will happen going forward.

Take this Second Niger Bridge for example. You have Delta on one side and Anambra on another side and you say for 30 years people have clamoured for another bridge but what is the cost of the darned bridge? It is a little over 100 billion. Are you saying the governments of Delta and Anambra could not have built the bridge by coming up with some of the capital, have private investors come up with the rest and toll the bridge? Imagine the impact of that?

It took the new governor of Anambra, Gov Obaino to sanitise the Anambra side of the bridge after the whole place was almost decaying.

When I heard of the port in Akwa Ibom, I almost jumped out of my skin hoping that the Abia state government will see that as a chance to improve the trade at Aba. You ask why?

The Ibaka (I believe that’s the name) port is a good chance for Abia state to get at the sea. They ought to have bought a stake or invested money towards the project perhaps get exclusive terminal(s) (the same way Lagos bought huge farmlands in Ogun state for their rice project). Then finance or look for investors to finance a direct rail line from the port to an inland port close to Aba and develop an industrial complex right there. Do you know how much economic activities that is? That on its own has simply opened up Abia state to the sea and gives them a chance to export without stress and also give them a chance to bring in raw materials and export raw goods. Footwears and the likes made from Aba gets easy access to the world.

The South Eastern states can come together to link everywhere via rail. The South East is not that large: an inland rail port in Abia can easily link the rest. If you wait for the FG to dredge the Niger, sorry ooooo because believe it or not, Anambra is not the only state that will demand for a share of that and in the spirit of equity, the federal government had to consider the rest too.



Igbos are one of the most travelled people in the world, I find it amazing that the governors and leaders there can’t use the influence of these people to draw in investors.

Do what Ogun state is doing to Lagos by sending delegations to companies (with your people at the helm) and giving them free land and tax incentives which is gradually making Ogun one of the states with the highest number of industries right now and still growing.

It is not every time you wait for the Federal Government. Look at how Lagos took Ikorodu road from the FG and worked on it. Or how Oyo, Ogun and Lagos asked the FG to hands off the Lagos-Ibadan expressway if they won’t fix it.

I want to see a tax structure in Anambra that generates money for the state to do more. The traders are there, tax them but before you can tax them, make the markets better. Aba is there, tax the traders and give them a chance to access the international markets

You don’t have to fight for international airports. Fight for roads instead.

Regional integration first: that is the nearest future before you talk of Biafra. If Biafra works, you already have the structures. If it does not come, you still have it

I don’t get why Abia state will fire non-indigenes from other South Eastern states from the civil service. That is dumb and only divide you.

You complain of representation in the National assembly and how you are numerically disadvantaged but even if you have an additional state, it only gives you a slight number. SE legislators need to build bridges with those from other zones and play the politics of the Senate and House of Representatives. They need to learn to “toast” other legislators (possibly actively support the bills favouring them) so they can support your bills in return.

This politics of “We are Igbos” has to stop especially at the federal level. Learn to play politics where you make friends (even if you have to pretend). Do you think Lagos got the federal government to move a lot of companies there because they have more senators? Hell no. They made friends with those they can make friends with, sacrificed what they can and got what they can get. Remember a tight hand not only keeps what it has but also not receive anything.

Igbos love to talk about how many houses they have outside the south east or how many business interests they have outside the south east but at what gain? You set up a factory in Oyo and pay tax to the Oyo state government, employ more citizens(indigenes and non indigenes) of Oyo and add to the GDP of Oyo so you can brag? Why not set it up in Ebonyi?

I don’t understand how Ifeanyi Ubah can come out to say Igbos are taking over Lagos and brag about how “they” won House of Representative seats there. Who will they represent, the south east or Lagosians(Lagosians here being both indigenes and non indigenes)? They are there to develop Lagos. Why will Ifeanyi Ubah say “Igbos will install the governor of Lagos”? You are simply playing politics where everyone else will be hostile towards you. Look even if you have Biafra as your goal, pretend to belong and be a part so you can get what will develop you

There has been this issue of other regions cutting food supplies to Biafra if it is ever created and then you hear Igbos say they will also cut oil supplies but before thinking of alienating yourselves in the event of a Biafra, why not just open your doors with the North in terms of trade as it concerns food? Why must it be malice (not necessarily violence)?

No one has the monopoly of farming but is the south east investing in farming right now? Learn from what happened the last time when food was cut off and stop thinking about how you will cut off oil supplies. What if the states in the South-South decide not to join and decide to form their own country (It can happen)? Everyone trades according to what they gain and if anyone offers them money, they will sell oil to them. Nigeria uses merely 400,000 barrels of oil each day, the oil deposits in Ondo and Edo(if you believe Edo will be part of a Biafra then you need to think about it again) can sort that out. The government is also talking of continuing the search in the Lake Chad region. Deposits have been found in Lagos, with Dangote building a 650,000 barrels per day refinery and Oando following up with a 350,000 barrels per day. The country will be a refining hub in West Africa and with that can afford to buy raw crude and export the products.

But what happens to the people of Igbo descent who has billions in investment in places outside the South East or the places that might not be part of Biafra? The loss to these people will be huge as the government of the country you leave might just nationalise them if you decide you want to leave with malice and the continual threats by people like Kanu Nnamdi of Radio Biafra.

Think of developing the SE as a short term goal with Biafra as a long term goal else the future (near and far) is going to be hellish.

To take them Serious they first have to leave Nigeria. All of them.

But when you are trying sai biafara from Lagos from and Abuja,you're joker.

Nice one

.

Nice write up BUT quite a biased analysis.. Why do South East have the least number of states? why is a state like Ebonyi so low in Allocation sharing? Why is there lack of Federal Presence in South East? Why didn't the FG Rebuild the South East after the war?
South East Governors(like Mbakwe,nnamani, ogbonnaya onu etc) REBUILT the region after the war by THEMSELVES.. Yet the South East States are standing and still progressing with the Highest Number of Middle Class Families in Nigeria.

Most igbos clamouring for biafra are just too dumb to think deep b4 they act especially when it comes to money. The main reason is their eyes are on Niger delta oil, "imagine that" they want to suppress another nation just for the short term oil goal which will soon be of less importance but I trust all d creek guys, they won't accept. For God sake u can't even develop one state in ur region up to a metropolitan with all d so call 'igbo is bless', "igbo is jews", "igbo is hardworking" and then u want a whole country. Wao! U must be the 'wisest tribe' on earth, my experience in Abia was noting to write home about. U guys are actually living and feeding on other regions. U can't even survive a year if u ever achieve ur biafra, I just pity those igbos wey dey ff dat ur so call biafra leader(d guy get dual citizenship and gbege na to run go ireland.

Mynd, Biafra will still be part of ECOWAS, do you know what ECOWAS means, do you know the instrument that protects the investments of member countries outside their countries of origin. Nigeria is a signatory to that instrument and so its must observe every damn thing there.



Do you think that if Biafra will succed tomorrow that Niger Delta will agree to be in the same Nigeria with you.

So when Odua Republic and Arewa Republic nationalize Biafra investments in their land, Niger Delta will not national Odua and Arewa investments in their land, likewise Ghana and Benin Republic.

Mynd go home your drunk.

1. We have argued this here once. The SE geographically is the smallest region. That said, it does not stop it from getting an additional state but for the past 16 years, I have not seen an aggressive push by the legislators for that. The article has said it, in politics everywhere, you need to reach out and form alliance so you can have people from outside also lend voices to your demands.

2. Ebonyi has little coming in from the FG. But how about Ebonyi using what it has. You know Ekiti can argue the same right? And i also ask why Ekiti with a huge potential for agriculture complains of allocation

3 and 4 are similar in response with 1

NEVER. Before he can, he must have built at least 3 on Oduduwa's soil. The maximum, they can build is an abode and not a mansion.

No ECOWAS and UN can protect any investment to be nationalised in any sovereign country. Ghana did it, Nigeria did it, Zimbabwe did it, Uganda did it, Asian countries did it and guess what, UN did not even blink an eyelid. How much more ECOWAS. Who is ECOWAS? Is Nigeria not the the ECOWAS.

You want Igbos to be in the same country with you where their kids will score 139 to gain admission but your own kids will score 20 to gain admission in similar school and under the same academic condition.

Mynd may you perish in Lagoon because of this your blind assertion.

Hmmm, mynd44

No1:
No one is using the past to judge/agitate for Biafra,rather,because of the continuous rape and marginalization of the SE.
Economically: by frustrating major bills/projects that can creat a boost in the region(I.e federal absence).
Politically:the mindset of the other two major ethnic group that "an IGBO president will divide Nigeria" is still hunting Nigeria.this mindset alone will make it difficult for SE to get president,not to talk of other factors.


No2:
you cited two examples(2nd Niger bridge and abia port)..have you taken into consideration the allocation to each of these states?
These are mega projects meant to be carried out with the support of "FEDERAL GOVERNMENT".
Where do you expect them to generate such capital from?....workers salaries? The workers that haven't been paid for months?
Have you wondered if these states have an external source of income and revenue?(in a region where industries are not much).
Do you want to bankrupt the states.


No3:
why do you want the SE to act independently,why shouldn't the SE wait for government,Why do you want the SE to carry out mega projects meant for the federal government....
Does this mean you are affirming that the SE is being marginalized?


No4:
There is no way foreign investors will be attracted to a region with little or no federal presence.
The ports and bridges will facilitate and boost business/economy,but until they are in place,no investors will be attracted.
For e.g we pay through our nose for Internet because of power and other factors...until power is steady we may continue in that path.


No5:
Pls stop calling lagos already,this was a former federal capital,developed with nigeria's resources,presently accounting for a reasonable number of industries..
It can independently carry out a few projects..
Take it or take lagos has a lot of advantage when it comes to why industries/headquarters were moved there.


No6:About the election,how else does one pretend to belong,the Hausas voted for their own,the Yorubas voted for their own.
It is only fair that IGBOS voted their own..
This is a country ravaged by ethnicity,we are so different from each other,that we are still living together is by God's grace.
Who started the 16yrs of "pdp misrule" OBJ(in fact,it was the Yorubas and the houses).
Now why blame the whole thing on Jonathan tenure.


No7:
About Biafra,what if the SS joins which is likely,I have said and will say it again,if there there is a peaceful secession,there would be no need to cut supplies of foods or oil products to any region/county.
Europe has gone that path against Russia after the Ukraine crisis,but they found out there was no road there when Russia struck back with its own sanctions.
You don't just sanction businesses of biafra's if the it secedes and still expect free flow of petroleum/oil products to the Nigeria.
And that is why buhari is resuming the search for oil along lake chad basin,to render the SS irrelevant(SS wake up o)


Finally:despite all these roadblocks,I still wonder how IGBOS emerge bosses and owners of the so-called industries all over Nigeria .
Supposing we switch regions today,lagos would have been 10yr ahead of China by now...#FACT...take it or take it.
For those shouting IGBOS have eyes on Niger delta oil,do we have all "Niger delta" oil at the moment? Why are we progressing.even the Niger delta that owns the oil,where is there economy today.


Did you know:
Belonging together and needing each other are two different things

How can you build in someone's land when you can't even build in your own land, have seen mud house in East, can you handle the type of houses they build in East.?

Bunch of covetous people, always trying to loot and steal peopl's wealth.

On the contrary, this is very sound. We should use what we have to get what we want instead of focusing on what we don't have . We should love ourselves first before we complain that others are marginalizing us.

I Nigeria is a signatory to ECOWAS but if they decide against policies what will ECOWAS do? What has the UN done against USA?

2. That is why investing in ports in important. If Nigeria breaks up the SE might find themselves landlocked if the SS decides to form their own state. What happens then? But if a SE officially has a stakes in the ports in the Niger Delta, you are at an advantage

3. Look at it this way, you all nationalise investments, who loses more? This is a call for the SE business community to invest more in the SE. A call to the leaders to develop the zone as together and build alliances with people outside.

My resentment for this biased and bigotted individual will not let me comment. But i will only say, "cut down the iroko in your eyes 1st before worrying about biafra".
The slave-master relationship btw you and the owners of Nigeria need more urgent attention than this unsolicited kindergarten crap.

My stake on this matter is, what will Akwa Ibom benefit by Aligning with the Biafran's? Remember Akwa Ibom Decides whether Cross River is to join or not
If Akwa Ibom chooses to join Biafra will Cross River answer another country's name in another country ?
I've been told when Biafran soldiers took over Uyo there hurriedly change Ikot Ekpene road to an Igbotic name Does that mean if we join forces with them we've automatically erased our 1. History 2. Personality and 3. Culture ?
When Biafran's soldiers entered Ibiono Ibom, they raped wife's, sisters, mothers, even killed peoples goat and merry. Supposed people you want to create a country with

Thank God!
Ibiono people being wise and crafty led Federal troops across the River were Arochukwu was captured.

So now what does Akwa Ibom stand to gain from forming formidable Alliance with South East aka People's Republic of Biafra?

Bunch of covetous people, you nationalize Nigeria Airways, Kingsway Stores, Leventis, Chellaeram, UTC, et al where are they today, do you still own it. All the companies and Biafra money you took after the war where are the impart now ??

Mynd your finish for this display of callousness and hatred, I know your a covert tribalist but you have finally come out closet so let's slug it out.

Lmaoooo. Deluded mengistu.

We built and are still building our own land, without soliciting the help of descendants of cain to join us in the project of building.

How will you have mud houses, when your fore fathers never develped an enduring building technology, apart from staying under raffia leaves? Where do you even want to develop when gully erosion has taken 2/3rd of your land and it is a simple common sense that you do not have a choice than to use the remaining 1/3rd to build by fire by force.

We develop our land horizontally and not vertically, with a mixture of our history as old houses and an our evolution as new houses. Show us what depict your history in your villages. NONE. No wonder, they do not appreciate history and tradition because they lack one.

How do you expect people that cannot develop their own land, to develop the land of others? that still remaining a million dollar question to sane minds.

Who is interested in your property? We are the same set of people that did not confiscate your property and you met your things intact when you returned back to SW after the war, without looting them and you can call that covetousness. I am not surprised, because words always have different meaning in the gully eroded land of the ingrates. That is how they call stupidity of rushing to an unprepared war as bravery, cowardice of a sissy bandit lord as bravery. Ingrates are the greedy and covetous lots,

I do not know how Lugard lumped us with this greedy, descendants of cain, akpu-brained chest beaters, that think with their chests rather than their vestigial brains. What do we have in common with this people? NOTHING.

@OP, stop advising them joor...let them get their Biafra..their eyes will open... starvation has a way of making people's brain function better.

Did US domesticate every UN resolution, even the climate change they refused to act on it.

Investing in East is good but why are you guys always interested on igbo properties you will covet instead of the peace and relief Biafra departure will grant you and your lordship.

Why the obsession over Igbo investments, I thought we sell gala and okirika clothes at jankara and yaba, why are you so much fixation on the sweats of Igbo people ?

OP, your head works well, like a brand new Ferrari engine at top speed!

I always say this ''the region that is most prepared for secession is the south west, they have everything a successful nation require, access to the juicest part of the atlantic ocean, industries, fertile land for agriculture, numerous natural resources, including this so called oil that others want to die about and very good human resource capabilities that can be harnessed to build a great Nation.

But you hardly hear them, beating their chests and making empty noise, common sense is not common at all.

We are the same set of people that did nit confiscate your property and you met your things intact when you returned back to SW after the war, without looting them and you can call that covetousnesss. I am not surprised, because words always have different meaning in the gully eroded land of the ingrates. That is how they call stupidity of rushing to an unprepared war as bravery, cowardice of a sissy bandit lord as bravery. Ingrates are the greedy and covetous lots,

I do not know how Lugard lumped us with this greedy, descedants of cain, akpu-brained chest beaters, that think with their chests rather than their vestigial brains. What do we have in common with this people? NOTHING.

FAyose definitely said that after smoking his cheap weed. I can never take him serious, till when i see it. By now, his cheap weed would have wore out and he will not even remember the rubbish he yarned.

Continue with your child slavery with your family members in your 2by2 inches shop.
