Governors of South-South and South East states have condemned in strong terms the various acts of terrorism and their sponsors in parts of the country. The Governors who gave this condemnation today in a communiqué after a closed door meeting in Asaba condemned the abominable behaviours and antics of some Nigerians and their evil collaborators. “The South-South and South-East governors plead with all Nigerians to adopt dialogue and peaceful means to resolve issues affecting the country,” the Governors resolved, adding, “the governors also agreed to work together and ensure regional cooperation in stemming the spate of kidnapping, arson, pipeline vandalisation as well as other nefarious activities in the regions to secure the regions and ensure that the regions remains a conducive environment to attract investments.” While thanking Governor Uduaghan for been a good host, the Governors stated, “the South-South and South-East Governors agreed on economic and political integration of the old Eastern and Midwestern regions now the South-South and South-East and pledged to strengthen cooperation across the board with particular focus on development of infrastructure linking the region, particularly federal roads.” “The Governors also pledged to work together to ensure the development of all the ports in the region including the Abia Dry port and called on the Nigeria Port Authority to facilitate the achievements of this objective,” the Governors said, reiterating that while they commended President Jonathan on the extensive rehabilitation and modernisation of the airports across the country, it was important for the Federal Government to establish cargo airports in Owerri and additional deep-sea ports in the regions including Ibaka, Escravos, Agge and also called for the dredging of the Calabar port.

FreeGlobe: hehehehehe, now the north and the west will have something to really worry about. I dey laugh oh Yes they do. Those who think God gave them the right to steal OUR resources are in for a very rude shock. To quote ASARI "we have seen the light at the end of the tunnel and nothing can drag us back". No parasite of whatever tribe can stop us. 3 Likes |

Talk and no action.I hope they are serious with the projects they just talked about.What has Biafra got to do with the thread anyway? Do you think in your deluded mind that South South is interested in Biafra? You better modify the title of your post with immediate effect! |

berem: I wonder where this new brotherly love between the SS and SE will lead to. Am watching with keen interest. Yes brotherly and have always been that way because the regions lived together for ages interacting with one another as one and became a country together before we were joined with people we don't know. |

Nigerians talk n make empty threats too much on the internet where their real faces r hidden. (it's entertaining really ) But, the day nairaland turns 'facebook' where real identities r on display, ill be the day Biafranism, civil war,Tribalism, regionalism & outright insults plus hate speech, ends on nairaland. #..

The change we have all been waiting for is gradually creeping in,let them make it a form of competition to see who does more for his state and watch and see if SS and SE wont outshine other parts of the country. |

This is game on. Definitely, Edo is not expected to be part of this alliance just as it is not part of the SW alliance yet. Merging together to improve the regions combined. |

If "real", they should collect federal subventions into a common purse, elect amongst themselves a governor of this new "mideast region" Then we will know how strong their "UNION" is! Until then, bayelsa sounds different from anambra and each is fighting for his pocket and career, not even the people of his state! So. Make we hear word! |
Re: SE/SS Govs Agree On Integration Of Old Eastern/midwestern Region by solomon111(m): 8:06am On May 13, 2013 |
Very good devt. The whole region should be completed integrated,in anticapation of biafra. We have the human and material resources to do it. We've wasted too much time. |

dayokanu: Some people must just attache by force.If Edo decides to play hancky-pancky with the SS/SE, then it will be ignored,atleast for now. |

Long awaited dream of the MB. We realy need a strong group to join so that fulanis will be buried forever. Let the integration continue faster. |

If this economic integration is an honest one then my soul is already jolly with hope and enthusiasm. This conglomeration is long overdue. I wonder why this region wasted almost eternity in mutual distrust and suspicion. Maybe the evil wind blowing in parts of the country has shown each one who his real friends are. I have developed a fully documented well tailored and implementable action plan for the fasted development of this region of my birth. If only we'd give it an honest committment for implementation then the picture of Nigeria would be like that of Rome and Naples. God bless Nigeria and Nigerians |
