@fratermathy, you forgot that Igboland along with Nile delta in Egypt used to be Africas densest regions? You forgot that Tinubus own census in Lagos revealed that Igbos outnumber yorubas in Lagos? You forgot that Igbos occupy all of SE, 70% of Rivers & 40% of Delta & are also found in Benue, Edo & Cross River while they constitute 2nd largest ethnic group in most places outside their homeland? Have you been to any market in the cities of the ECOWAS subregion & beyond, did you observe the huge Igbo population? Do Yorubas travel more than Igbos? Did slave trade not affect Igboland as it affected Yorubaland? Nigerian census figures is mere fabrication from the pit of hell. Igbos are more populous than yorubas, and thats a fact! 10 Likes 2 Shares |

fratermathy:The SS want restructuring because they believe disintegration is impossible without war. If they were offered their own country, they would gladly take it. The West can manage on their own with difficulty, because of what they have on ground, but not the north. They will die of hunger, diseases etc. Do you know how much of our budget that goes to the north? billions! Where are they gonna get the money? From selling tomatoes? One more thing, Igbos may not be up to 50 million like the other guy said, but we're definitely more than the 30 million you wrote. How can we be 30 million and yet we're the largest in every state apart from the indigenes? And don't give me that bull about Igbos travelling a lot, others travel out too. 6 Likes |

This Leadership newspaper is really not worth the paper it's printed on. So Igbos should not acquire Nigerian passport because they are asking for a separate country? What bunkum! There is no state of Biafra existing today. It may even take years to come into existence. In the meantime Igbos will enjoy all rights and privileges as Nigerian citizens, after all they have not stopped paying taxes to Nigerian government or anything of such. The write up is too silly and makes no sense. 2 Likes |

Ngokafor: That's fine. When you trash those documents you will need these 1. Valid visa 2. Residence permit 3. Expatriate quota 4. Business permit 5. Security clearance ( for certain occupations) Here are three prayers you must also make regularly 1. "Lord don't let them apply the acquisition of lands by aliens law no 461 ( Lagos state) in any form whatsoever" 2. Lord please grant us favour so that NASS permits dual citizenship and same is ratified by the president. Also in the same vein, please let them sign a double taxation treaty with our new country" 3 " Lord grant us favour that all contracts held by our people will not be voided whether in our name or in the name of our companies based on changes of address and applicable laws" These are the realities that need to address. This is why I am convinced that the current agitation is baseless. Were it to be strategically conceived, the tone and language would be different knowing fully well that beyond statehood, these issues need to be addressed at some stage. I believe therefore that what we are seeing is a cathartic ventilation of anger that will ultimately work for the good of everyone. 4 Likes |

What is facts portray is not the same as a referendum. If you want to use the issue of subscribing to international passports and drivers licencing let me now tell you it I'd not a means to know the minds of Igbo's to either restructuring or secession. Rather it suggests that the Igbo population is not as small as it is exageratted. Rather it suggests the level of contributions to the GDP of the country. Telling an intelligent and well read person as myself that this stated facts is proof of generality of the Igbos being satisfied with the lopsided appointments of the FG, quota system, number of states in the south east, federal government allocation to states, small number of seats in the national assembly, headship of security services dominated by the hausa Fulani despite having over 250 tribes in Nigeria etc is simply absurd and plain stupid. Why don't you also say that since Igbos use naira and kobo that it means they want to be part of this contraption of a country? Please come up with better excuses of why you know our minds better than we do with superior arguments and not propagated untruths or by force of arms as was seen for instance by Nigerian forces at Owerri yesterday. I am of the opinion that since the FG and even the sultan have decreed for all of us 180 million Nigerians that there would be no restructuring it means that even those Igbos who had preferred restructuring to seccession will tilt left. If you want to put my theory to test try referendum and see how it turns out. PS: This is not the redefined meaning of hate speech but you may call it call a spade a spade and not a shovel speech. 1 Like |

fratermathy:You are only embarrasing yourself. Igbos occupy the whole of Delta north senatorial zone while 70% of Rivers are occupied by Igbo speaking tribes. If you dont know all these already then I cant help you, everything I wrote earlier are verifiable facts. About why Yoruba language is the local language in Lagos is not a brain teaser, the language is native to the place so it has remained like that while other tribes learn it, however Igbo language is also very popular in Lagos. 8 Likes |

Basic123:Every ordinary Nigerian want them to go? This comment is the most ridiculous comment I've ever heard. They want igbos to go and yet, they carry ipob matter for head? Seun banned IPOB topics at first, but then he realised the traffic it drives to his site is too good to ignore and now he pushes them to the front page more than any other thing. The reason why Biafra and IPOB hasn't faded away is because of the way the rest of Nigerians vehemently opposes it. Believe me, if they supported it or gave Ultimatum jointly like the northerners did, half of the Biafran supporters would probably think about what they would lose and withdraw their support. But since it's opposed by every other Nigerian, the Igbos realised their importance to Nigeria and the agitation has increased. Don't talk about our politicians, they have a lot to lose, so they would never support Biafra. Egypt and Libya did not need their politicians for the revolution and neither do we. Our voices must be heard whether our politicians like it or not. 4 Likes |

proeast: Did I just read that "Igbos occupy the whole of Delta senatorial zone"? Where Urhobo, Delta's most populous ethnic group, con occupy? Besides.. I haven't seen the proof that Igbos have 40% of Delta. Delta North is just ONE district of 3. Urhobos occupy two of the districts of Delta. Igbos occupy 1. Igbo district is just 1.2m. Urhobo has 1.5m from Central and at least 500k from South. Ijaw is around 500k in Delta. Itsekiri is around the same figure. So where did your 40% come from? Explain yourself. Bloody exaggerators and chest beaters. Even in the Rivers State. The so-called "Igbos" there occupy ONLY Two of Three Districts and one of the two districts also comprises non-Igboid people. So pray tell, where did the 70% come from? These exaggerations, deliberate as they seem, are why any sane person will fault your 50million population hypothesis. Again, shouldn't it be logical that Igbo be the lingua franca in a place Igbos dominate? Isn't that the case of Ikwerre in Rivers? Why is Lagos now different when you have the higher numbers there? Enlighten us on this paradox. 5 Likes |
