MR PRESIDENT YOU ARE RIGHT ABOUT THE UNITY OF NIGERIA BUT....... My major concern about Mr President's speech is the dictatorial tone applied, negating your fatherly factor and the concerns of dissenting voices in a democracy, especially as it relates to the restructuring of Nigeria. These dissenting voices in my estimation does not include IPOB. Mr President I agree with you that it is good to keep Nigeria united. But to say that the type of unity we currently have is nonnegotiable smacks of dictatorship. In case you have forgotten the so called unity was actually discussed by our fathers and the terms of unity Nigerians wanted was agreed upon. But the military boys came in with violent disorder and destroyed what was negotiated prior to independence and in 1963, and gave us what you now describe as nonnegotiable, called 1999 constitution. What the military led by one man gave us is unanimity and not unity. They took away the content of what was negotiated that was supposed to be nonnegotiable and gave us inequality, stifled systems that undermines Nigeria's progress, development and prosperity. Indeed our fathers had a detailed discussion and negotiation with the British in the 50's about the kind of union that was acceptable us. They all agreed on real federalism whereby each zone maintained its own economy, peculiar political structure and institutions. These included resource control, regional/state police and prisons and many other creative structures that made Nigeria progressive pre-independence to 1967. Any document decided by Adulsalam Abubakar and his junta called the 199 constitution is without our general contribution ant it is largely not acceptable. And the change required cannot be made by only a council of state populated by retired generals from one region or national assembly without equal representation from across the states and zones. There maybe need for input from other well meaning Nigerians if we are serious about carrying zone along. A unity based on inequality and military imposition must be negotiable.
BenzEne1: Arrest the people who put him in the coffin. If you can prove they were mobilized to do that by Buhari or any of his aides. Take your case to court. If you can't then you all can stop this insults on Buhari's person.
magoo10: yet Jonathan never threatened to arrest any one nor did he unleash the military like the dullard and his cabal is doing,truth will always crystalize it is like pregnancy that you cannot hide. the worst thing APC govt will do is an attempt to gag the people from expressing their freedom of speech,their final downfall will not be too far off.
Ojiofor: Buhari said restructuring which includes negotiating Nigeria is within the purview of national assembly and national council of states, and that he had agreed with Ikemba that Nigeria must remain one. Is Buhari and Ikemba national assembly or council of states? What a contradiction in the same speech.The dullard want to be smart by half .
Deltagiant: Even if Ojukwu had unwritten agreement with Buhari, what does that has to do with 40 million Igbos who wants a referendum today?
Ojukwu was just one man, one opinion. The former Eastern region asked him to lead them in war then, just like they have supported Nnamdi Kanu to lead them in their quest for referendum today.
Ojukwu has come and played his own role following his own level of common sense and intellect and gone, and the people appreciated and still appreciates his contribution immensely.
That said, it is inappropriate to invoke his personality in the scheme of things as it is today. We are living in a different political climate today with different challenges that are not present during Ojukwu's time. In this wise, different instruments of solution are being applied.
deomeelo: Coming from a bitter, angry and hateful ipob of course..

Afonjas...deep in their hearts they like Nnamdi Kanu and wished he was yorubaa but because they are naturally envious people, cannot do what Nnamdi Kanu is doing, so they resort to "WE MUST DESTROY HIM SINCE WE CANNOT DO IT, AND WE WILL NEVER LET THE CREDIT GO TO IGBOS FOR SAVING EVERY TRIBE OUT OF THIS EVIL COUNTRY, INCLUDING OUR SOPHISTICATED SELVES"

Tittos: There is an increasing number of rape cases in Nigeria. However it's shocking to find out that most rape cases are never reported. Also statistics show that a huge percentage of rape cases especially in minors are pepertrated by relatives or close family friends. Nigeria has a society still placed bulk of the blame on rape victims thereby making it difficult to speak up. Studies also found that the majority (76.1%) of the victims that sought help at a hospital did so within 24 hours of their sexual assault, but forensic evidence was not gathered because rape kits have yet to be introduced. This then makes it difficult to prosecute the perpetrator for lack of evidence.
These have made rape victims silent about their ordeal. Thier silence becomes dangerous as it can lead to depression and phobia. Most rape victims are not even aware when they begin to tow this path. However these three women have taken the fight against rape and sexual abuse to a new level. Enlightening the public about rape and sexual abuse and harassment, helping victims and working hard to combat this ugly crime in Nigeria.
