I have made up my mind that you are an old fool. Do you know that the Eas-West road is as old as Lagos-Benin-Onitsha road that links Onitsha bridge?

So somebody going to Bayelsa or Akwaibom from Lagos will have to go all the way to Onitsha bridge before turning down South? So its economic importance is not a priority reason to dualize the road but because the authorities are more concerned about downplaying the relevance of Onitsha bridge?

I just wonder at your mentality most of the times. Are you sure you are not on drugs?



Of course. The road was constructed very fast in 1970 to remove South-South dependence on Onitsha bridge before the war. We need as much link roads as possible but the motive was not even hidden then.

On the other thread, you suck the coock of abokiis as if your life depend on it and here now, you are ranting like a rabid dog..If I catch u [...] this double faced ediot angry
The stupidity of an average Biafra turns me off. U idiiots made it an issue of personal attacks.

No republic can be born exclusively from insults and hate speaches. Apply wisdom and diplomacy. Try to reachout and build bridges and you'll find willing and formidable allies.

Ntor ni.

As I speak, the city of Onitsha is at a standstill. Motorists that do not have allegiance to Biafra can not enter until further notice. Nigerian flags have been rightfully removed from the city, and replaced with proper Biafran Flags. Motorists entering with Nigerian flags and peacefully asked to replace them with their proper flag, and it's working. Biafra has begun.


How did this happen? Well, when you have 1 bridge connecting Nigeria to 60 million people, and laugh at all requests to build a second one, you have given the owners of that bridge 100% power over what is and isn't Nigeria. TonyeBarcasta and co can come on here and post about South South and South South South South until their yoruba fingers turn purple. As it stands, what Onitsha people decide to do with Niger Bridge determines the existence of Nigeria as it relates to Rivers, Awka Ibom, Imo, Enugu, Benue, Cross Rivers, and Abia state. All that's left or us to contest is union with our brothers in Bayelsa and Delta, who are protesting in larger numbers than even people on the other side of the bridge.

You gave Osha this power and they have made their decision. You can keep claiming they're a part of Nigeria but let you as a Nigerian cross their bridge today without paying due homage to the New Nation of Biafra.


Meanwhile I can go to Lagos because it's a no man's land grin



Please is this the large numbers. This looks more like a rented crowd to me, no offence.

Nigeria should break up jare.

Southern states keep increasing taxes thereby making life unbearable for their residents by means of raising revenue to fund essential projects while the bulk of the Fed allocation goes to the north, with most LGs, states, political offices and govt jobs.
They contribute relatively nothing to the fed coffers. All free money and no taxation whatsoever!

Tired of sharing the same national identity with these abokiis. They'r a clog in the wheel of Southern progress.
those who businesses are permitted by law to pay tax after all expenses have been done with, so.if they declare 'nothing' as profit after tax they will scale through thus the reason they do not contribute anything except adding more babies to the general population... with the way Naija is going, any country with more than 3/4 language may fail if care isn't taken. this is just the beginning. we will only keep envying the western world but they dont 500+ language like we in nigeria yet we want to be like them.

E pain am. gringringrin. You are not even ashamed to be bragging about depending on importation for survival, considering that your accursed region doesn't even border any sea -- you have to depend on others to ship in your imports and you are here gloating? ? ?

As for us we are busy industrializing so we dont have to be import dependent like your cursed folks. cheesy Smh. You are just too daft for comfort, to put it mildly.

If Nigeria wants to starve you all it just simply needs to cut off your landlocked lot access to the her ports and you are finished -- go ask your father how y'all were starved to death via a blockade during the last civil war. Just face your protest and keep Yoruba people out of your pet Project.

Lol

You can be bitter to death, miserable one.

If Biafra is landlocked, as you have been crying out, wipe your tears and bother about your hopeless self about your slavery status


We want out, and that's it.

Never attempt to infect us with your slavery mentality, it's not in our blood to be cowardly.

Remove Benue (They've got Makurdi, Abuja route)
Rivers (They've got PH-Ugheli-Warri-Benin route)
Even Akwa Ibom can easily take Uyo-PH-Warri-Benin

At the End of the day, Anambra will be the state to suffer most from any disruption.

Lol. I hate to be in your shoes boy coz it's obvious you and your ilk are desperate to find a way to get the rest of the country's attention via the pity parties you call protests but too bad y'all appear too insignificant to command the level of attention you seek.

You cleverly failed to address the fact I cited that Onitsha market is dependent on imported goods that enter Nigeria majorly via SW ports, without which the market ceases to exist. In other words, the part of the country that owns and controls the seaport where imported goods that are the lifeline of the likes of Onitsha can easily replace Onitsha in a heartbeat -- we'll simply import those goods ourselves and cut y'all off and problem solved. So don't flatter yourself, boy.
It doesnt work that way. If it could simply be replaced like u said, it'd have been done long ago - such that Onitsha will be irrelevant to Nigeria

Ipob fools can't get Yoruba out of their brain. Even their director mentions Yoruba more than he say the word biafra in his broadcast
It surprises me so much, I wonder if there are only two tribes in Nigeria ( Igbo and Yoruba). There are 3 major tribes but it is always Yoruba. Even our President is Hausa/Fulani.
I don't understand this addiction to just "Yoruba".
