 Politics / Re: 386 Soldiers Quit Army In 1 Year – Reps by 1MCN: 8:45am On Mar 03, 2021 |
We've never ever had this number within a quarter before in Nigeria, not even within a year, even in the heights of Boko Haram. There's likelihood that the number is higher. One man asked the soldiers and police to resign and they obeyed, and you're calling it bluff just to keep deceiving yourselves thinking you're deceiving the people. Until we begin to face the truth we will never go further. And, I see the doomsday nearer than predicted. |

It's simple. Pick up all the destroyed ballot papers as evidence. Count them and ascertain the preliminary or presumable paper taking the lead. Then identify the most sagacious politician or the most notorious thug whose unit it is. If the presumable result does not favour the politician's or thug's preferred candidate then arrest him for severe gruelling interrogation. But I'm afraid Nigeria is incapable. Very incapable, especially in this change government. |

It's already 16 days to the end of December. Alas, Muhammadu Buhari has shifted the goal post. Those who said December deadline was sacrosanct have suddenly realized that the deadline was a stupid pronouncement. |

Ioannes: Honestly, I don't enjoy the insults. But I have equally seen several Bia fra related threads on the forum in spite of the rule. Sometimes, we need some of those news to be properly informed on goings-on in the country so we can plan our day, or itinerary well. It was on NL that I saw the news of the seige in Onicha Bridge Head. I was able to help someone plan his movement. The news about their proposed protest in Lagos today and tomorrow will enable some people plan their way properly too. NL can hide incendiary comments, ban accounts and close threads that are false, terrorist, or provocative. |

Bigprozzie: A friend "forcefully" added me on Facebook to Radio Bia fra London Facebook page since last year. I've never liked or commented on the page for the first time but I have noticed that whenever I see a topic there and eventually read it, most of the top contributors are Hausa, Yoruba, and Edo. And, my friend, if you see vituperations from those guys to the "Bia frans" on their own site you'll shudder. The admins never censor nor gag, they just sit and hope someone would come up with a superior argument to dismantle the insolence. However, I admit that Seun holds the ace on his forum. 1 Like |

I was away from Nairaland for a few days (about 4 days) due to the loss of my gadgets. So when I came back later I tried the best I could to catch up with what had gone on. In doing so I went from page 0 further down, and suddenly I bumped unto the (now controversial) thread by Seun himself announcing amendments to Nairaland Rule 9. When I read the thread I must confess the words were sufficiently mature, and succinctly put! His argument was passionate and yet stern, especially the part where he said "we" can not afford the pains of losing the love and friendship we share with the Igbo. I bet you, if president Muhammadu Buhari has come out to address Nigerians this same way he'd have won the hearts of a lot of Igbo people to his side, especially those who are yet undecided, or double-minded, or against the issue of this agitation for a Sovereign State of B!afra. However, I think Mr. Seun missed a step by pointedly stamping it that NL will hack down any pro-B!afran thread on the forum. Make no mistakes about it, Seun owns NL and he sets the rules. One does not pay to subscribe on NL neither does one pay to contribute (except for data charges) and therefore NL doesn't owe anyone any sort of compensation on issues like this. The only debt that NL owes B!afran agitators on this forum is Fair Hearing. Although this debt is objective, it's as well moral. Granted that some B! afran NLers can be crass and nettlesome at times, Bia fra as a course or ideology can not be shut out. We must know this! There's an Igbo proverb that says, 'Nguchi uzo a-naghi a hia m-ba mmuo'. This loosely translates as shutting of the door does not prevent an attack of the [evil] spirit. Even if we choose to shut them off on all online and print media in Nigeria, if Bia fra is destined to come it'll come. We remember there was a time Nigeria refused to feature any news about them but today they [dis]-grace the banner pages of all newspapers in Nigeria, and sometimes overseas. It's obvious that the agitators and their sponsors have squarely and roundly defeated Nigeria in this media war. What I expect the DSS, Police, Army, FG, and other relevant bodies to do is to mobilize their men online to argue intelligently against the ideology and profer more convincing idea and ideology rather than issuing threats and whatnot to media outlets against such publications. Finally, I am not telling you, Seun to rescind or ammend your Rule 9. I'm only telling you that Nguchi uzo anaghi a hia m-ba mmuo, shutting the door does not stop [evil] spirit attacks. Thank you. 5 Likes |

Rikidony: Does this our Niger Delta Republic include Imo and Abia states, and even Ondo state? Because these states are part of the Niger Delta region. Don't you think it's wiser to say we have 100% control of our resource(s), which is what the proponents of Biafra are stating? When did the Niger Delta people reduce it to 50%? Mind you.

Goodboiyy: Of course, I do respect your decision. But let we piont out three highlights in your submission. 1) You said 'We itsekiri, Urhobo/Isoko, Ijo, Edo, ogoni e.tc'.... Are you all of those at the same time? I mean are you Itsekiri and Urhobo and Isoko and Ezon at the same time? You can only be one, or at most two. Don't you think you're committing the same offence you accuse Igbo people of by annexing over 6 different ethic groups? 2)Resource Control. I'm not the spokesperson for Biafra agitators. But what if your resource control is a central policy in Biafra? What if Biafra proposes that all lands and the resources therein belong to the local people? Do you know that "We" have being demanding resource control in Nigeria for over 50years? What have we gotten? 13%, and ammesty, and Odi massacre, and Ken Saro-Wiwa's death, etc. Have you asked why the PIB lasted for 6 years in the NASS? It was because of a 10% host community fund which the bill proposed and it was rejected by entire lawmakers from the north and west. Do you honestly think that Nigeria can freely give "Us" resource control? It'll be an intergenerational struggle. 3)South south Minorities. Please, my brother how can you be a minority in your own land? With due respect, I think you should be ashamed to call yourself a minority in your own land. And did you know that the so called minority actually produce the majority of Nigeria's wealth? Please don't be subjugated and emasculated with divisive politics. Henceforth, never use the word minority to describe yourself or your people. It strips you of dignity. Britain that introduced the minority nonsense here does not have or recognize anything like minority Indeginous British in their own home country, if you've ever travelled out. Finally, I say to you, I'm not even against Nigeria but I have a policy that genuine freedom and equality (and egalitarialism) are all noble pursuits. 4 Likes |

Goodboiyy: My brother, I think you're getting unnecessarily hysterical. Who're the "We" and who're the "You"? What makes you think I'm Southeast? I will not say you're still a teen. But just so you know how the world works. When a people seek a separate State they must define their boundaries. Then a vote (referendum) is cast to ensure the voice of every adult within that proposed precinct is heard. During the period of the call for votes both the separatist state and the original state campaign to the people or peoples of the proposed separate state. If at the end the votes fail (that is the people vote to remain in the union, as in Scotland recently), they remain and the agitation and the call for referendum ends sine dine until new reasons for separation (completely different from the previous) emerge and the people again seek self determination. If however, a particular group within the proposed map reject secession they simply acced with the old union, or equally seek a separate state. Please refer to Yugoslovia on this point. I give you an unbiased, and unpersonalised response on this issue. So don't insist I'm from the East or West Or North or South. For more than one year I've come to know Nairaland and its commonplace chauvinism, I have carefully kept my regional identity to myself. 2 Likes |

bosedekemi: You're very correct. But I think the exclusion of most part of Edo is not because "the Benin Kingdom is a very powerful ancient one...". The proponents of Biafra say that in Biafra there will be total abolition of Monarchy. And the Benin Kingdom is ancient as you said, and culturally deep rooted and therefore will be averse with the Biafran Principle of State Polity. And Biafra will not want to interfere with peoples' cultures and roots. But if put through a referendum and the people accept to jettison their monarchy and vote to join Biafra then they're accepted. One thing must be said here: BIAFRA IS NOT, AND SHALL NOT BE A FORCED STATE. Even if the so called South south chooses through the referendum to remain in Nigeria like TonyeBarcanista insists they'll be completely allowed to remain (although the minuscle opinion of one man is too infinitesimal in issues like this). If they want separate break away State then they must be prepared to slug it out with Nigeria. Though I don't see this happening. Finally, I think it's time for the proponents of Biafra to begin to unveil the political and economic blueprints for the proposed "Biafran" public to see, so that those "annexed" areas or regions will begin to weigh their options. I read, and saved, yesterday a document purported to be presented by Asari Dokubo titled Biafran Charter of Government (or something). I think it's time to begin to act in ways that shows the struggle is real and unstoppable. God Bless Every People Around The World Who Seek Genuine Freedom. 5 Likes |

Uwazuruike! What Nnamdi Kanu and the IPOB have achieved in 6 months Uwazuruike and his (now sliced) MASSOB couldn't achieve it in their 16years of existence. Uwazuruike is seeking to reinvent/reincarnate/re-entrench himself into the Biafran struggle but he has long lost it. Imagine calling for a Biafran event and inviting the likes of Al-Mustapha and his brood of 70 serpents! This goes to confirm Nnamdi Kanu's allegation that Uwazuruike signed an MoU with Al-Mustapha, Fasheun, and Dokubo under Jonathan to drop all agitations and work together to keep Nigeria One. This news is a concrete evidence that Muhammadu Buhari has greased some people to balkanize the struggle. They said he paid them 20 billion Naira to do that. But nothing stops an ideology whose time has come. Nigeria keeps running to those people who have absolutely no commanding power in this resurgent struggle. Nnamdi Kanu once said it that so many people will make huge enterprise out of Buhari in this course. Uwazuruike and Rochas and a so many other rogues are about to earn the severance and retirement packages from Nigerian and Buhari through Biafra. *In the sterling voice of Nnamdi Kanu* 'But In The End Biafra Will..... 1 Like |

GabrielSuswam: The misconception most Nigerians have about Igbo people is that you think the Emeka in computer village in Lagos likes Lagos state more than he likes his Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu or Imo state. No. The writer acknowledged that Igbo control 70% of import business in Nigeria. But the Nigerian govt has made Lagos the only viable import route in Nigeria. So what do you expect? The momemt Onicha, Calabar, Uyo, Port Harcourt, Aba and other Eastern water routes are opened you'd see Lagos gasping for survival in the competitive market. The state of Carlifornia in the US has four 4 viable seaports! The writer also acknowledged that Igbo are wide travelled. They are not just scattered in Nigeria but across the world. And unfortunately, each time Nigerians mention Igbo they mention business. That is lie from the pit of wherever. Igbo are in business, education, science and technology, entertainment, sports, etc. If Nigeria can not stop a radio station from broadcasting in its teritory does it not instill fear in you? Three different newspapers published three different contradictory headlines yesterday. In 1 Buhari says they're negotiating with Boko Haram in another Burutai says they've routed Boko Haram in another Buhari says Boko Haram wants to switch the Chibok girls with their detained bomb experts. But intelligent reports reveal that Buhari is seeking arms in preparation for Nnamdi Kanu and the Biafran impending civil unrest. I maintain that I'm not among these agitators neither am I against them, for now. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Mr Joe, you are an honest man of sorts. You were honest enough to admit the injustices which the agitators of a sovereign Biafra are suffering in Nigeria. But you were crafty enough to say the people should remain in Nigeria only because you're now closer to power. Just now that you are about to receive your share of the national cake one 50something year old Prince from Umuahia wants to spoil your show. Sorry sir. Talking about Igbo business investments outside the east. They're protected by both domestic and international laws. I know that your own investments are in Lagos and Abuja. Just remember that the owner of Gatwick airport in London (2nd largest in the UK is a Nigerian from Yoruba). That Dangote wants to buy up ArsenalFC of England should also give you relief. The most the Nigerian govt can do is to nationalize those property as obasanjo did in the 70s (that is the price of freedom). As for your Yoruba wives and friends you'll still keep them. They're also protected by both domestic and international laws. As for me, I've made up my mind to be rich whether Nigeria or Biafra. But if Biafra goes to war with Nigeria then it's only moral that my loyalty will go to Biafra unreservedly. 33 Likes 2 Shares |
