9jaunite: YES it will happen if we DO it! There is Constitutional Force Majeure ongoing to take down the Apartheid and forged 1999 Constitution. Lower Niger Congress (LNC) with Oduduwa and Middle Belt organisations have started it. Google for information. LNC link: https://www.facebook.com/lowernigercongress/?ref=br_tf&epa=SEARCH_BOX&__m_async_page__=1&_rdc=1&_rdr Make it known! Help make it happen. If we all DO instead of just pray, it will happen.

Blackking98: Sentiments aside, nature blessed the Niger Delta with natural resources but ended up undermining it by making it a Babelian society. To be honest with you, a Nigerian Delta Rep will sink into a civil war no sooner it gains independence. South Sudan is an example of how a heterogeneous and resource rich country will decend into chaos once left on their own. Ijaw will be the greatest undoing to any nation it is part of and I will give you reasons. 1. They have a topography that makes guerilla warfare easy and convenient to embark on. 2. They have oil resources that can sustain any warlord who wants to fight the government. 3. They don't believe in deplomacy rather they are aggressive and voilent when going for what they want, naturally lazy and are a band of disjointed ethnicity with many dissimilar subgroups. I have studied the disparate ethnic groups in the Niger Delta and Ijaws are the ones that would destabilize any country that forms there. Already, they are fighting with virtually all its neighbors at the moment and the formation of a new country will cause the faultlines to deepen since there won't be external bigger enemies to fight. Igbos will have a moderating influence if the whole region becomes one country but even at that it is still too risky for me compared to an only Igbo country that will have relative peace and stability. Lastly, I don't think there is ever any state, least of all in Africa that has just one ethnic group so it may be difficult for the UN to grant an only Igbo country but even if we are to go together, I will always support a country where every region is autonomous to an extent. 2 Likes |

proeast: It's only In Africa that you don't find one country with one or just a handful of ethnic groups, Rwanda that just has two see how they're prospering although after years of bloodbath. They know Africans are really divided along ethnic lines and hence always mix ethnic groups together, if a single ethnic group has its own country eg oodudwa for Yoruba and Biafra for igbos honestly this two countries will give the world powers a run for their money, but instead they'll add minorities to this countries thereby causing another mini Nigeria and we'll be busy fighting ourselves instead of thinking of how to catch up with them. |

Tripoli: The funny thing is that most of you don't reason logically instead you allow emotions to override everything. Let me inform you that UN cannot support the creation of a country they know will easily go into a civil war the very next minute. Before you talk about presenting your case to the UN that you're seeking for independence, you will have to do the following: Get the support of all the ethnicities that make up the Niger Delta. Now this is where you will encounter the first problem. Will the Itshekiri agree to be in the same country with the Ijaws knowing that they will be at their mercy and considering the Warri question? What about the Ikwerre, will they be comfortable to be in a country with the Ijaws knowing what that means to their current dominant position in P.H? What about the Asa/Ndoki Igbos as well as the Egbema, do you think they will agree to go with Niger Delta when their immediate kiths and kin in Abia and Imo states respectively will be in another country? Look at the map of SS, does that map seem realistic and logical? That map is shapeless and can't fly once it gets to the UN table. Now contrast these challenges we the Igbos that are homogeneous and thus no need to start negotiating with others, already going for Biafra, has the global spread and unity of purpose to mount worldwide pressure etc. and yet you think you can easily get yours before Biafra?? 3 Likes 1 Share |

Hotice085: No sense! No logic!! There are Igbos too in the so-called SS, so why not tell me your ethnic group or are they so insignificant that you must lump all others together for you to be noticeable?? I can wager a bet that there are more Igbos in the so-called SS than your little tribe you're too ashamed to mention. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

proeast:face your nnamdi kanu and abia state. Charity begins at home. Look at abia state, when you cross the rivers state boundary to abia state, from azumini to aba to ukwa west and it's environs all you see is dirts and deathtrap roads. You will wonder if abia have a governor at all. The person that called abia state "God's own state" must be high on ogogoro, how can God dwell in a dirty and deathtrap state. Niger deltans have nothing to do with Igbos |

Hotice085:that is why they are obsess with Niger deltans. If you merge enugu, abia and imo together it is not up to cross river state- 20,156kmsq. If you merge the other two anambra and ebonyi together it is not up to delta state- 17,698kmsq. That is why these Igbos are not content with their SE rather they are looking for minorities land to grab. These Igbos are bunch of delusional ignoramus. 1 Like 1 Share |

9jaunite: Lobatan opari. Like seriously?, o gidi gan o. I remembered watching the movie about Chinese invasion and colonization of Tibet. The Tibetans have lost their homeland to the Chinese Invaders, and are now roaming the most despicable places in South East Asia. Dalai Lama the ruler of Tibet, that was a little boy at that time is over 60 years now, he lives like a commoner in India, he had the Buddhists Sanskrits, but the Chinese rule Tibet. The UN has not been able to help the Tibetans till tomorrow. It is not easy to repair what is broken, neither is it easy to recover what got stolen.
