One Nigeria is...ALL ABOUT OIL! They have ravaged most of the oil in the SS; nearly 80% of their proven reserves depleted, environment polluted now they are heading into SE. Imo, Abia and Anambra. Anambra has the largest oil and gas reserves in Nigeria followed by Imo and Abia...the irony is Nigerians don't know this. Even Igbos don't even know this! They hide this from us!

We can pretend all is well but remember...when a situation or condition reaches critical mass, THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO STOP IT!

garfield16:


Actually, I enjoy teasing the IPOB & Biafra people because I find the whole thing very comical. The reality of the times we live in now is that the reason why Nigeria is a shithole is the same reason Biafra will be a shithole and the SW will be a shithole if we split up. our problem collectively, is we dont have the calibre of leaders we used to have this applies across the board, so anyone who feels secession will resolve matters is delusional.

garfield16:


I have no problem with the Ibo man leaving, he brings nothing to the table I have said if before that but for Oil, Nigeria would have long discarded the Ibos. They are more trouble than they are worth. the food and meat i eat is not from Ibo land, the Oil we are talking about is not Ibo Oil and even then Oil has been nothing but a curse, SW was better off under Awolowo when we didn't have Oil. But the Ibo man should know that the powers that be (i.e core North) will not allow the Oil to leave without a fight. That theater of war will be Ibo land and that fight will claim lives, so they had better make sure they have the capacity to win the war or it will just be repeat of history where millions died for nothing.

Just Boko Haram the zoo could not defeat for years even till now.Mind u 1967 is not 2016 there has be a lot of changes(gun don cast).No one prays for war but "anuhu eji maka mgbagbu hara ogu"(u dnt run frm war because u will be killed) so let it come we can die for what our descendants will enjoy,we can die for dis cause.

Let it come.

garfield16:


Nobody is stopping you. I will be here in Yoruba land enjoying the peace if war breaks out. Remember between 1967 and 1970, if you lived in the Sw or the North, you won't know we were engaged in a war.


I have nothing to lose

pyxon:




Well said....like a yoluba fear fear

Opharhe:
Shuo shuo shuo. See dis one o, u're just deceiving urself my dear. This is not 1667 my broda... Let's not pray for war. Remember the Niger-Delta is no longer pro-FG as we were then, if war should break out everyone will feel the heat. Yorubaland will suffer a lot too- yes, Lagos, Ibadan, Abeokuta etc can be bombarded from the sea around Warri, Koko etc. Coastal Yorubaland around Ondo, Ogun may also suffer huge casualties from naval assault. What about Ariel attacks? Abeg let me not talk much but know that if it happens, we will all feel the heat, even the North will not be left out.

garfield16:



excuse me, this is your wahala not ours, why would a yoruba man carry another man's wahala on his head? You cary our wahala for your head when una dey power for 6 years? we tell you say we want secede? na una be brave people well done. 2 million dead, no Biafra una still be beat chest.

The igbos are their own problem. They enjoyed putting all their eggs in one basket. I understand the way they feel now, it was a serious political miscalculation on there leadership. Jonathan really tried for them and south south. At that time they also forgot others like south west. During Jonathan, no Yoruba man was in position number 1 -10. The highest Yoruba person then was Mrs Mulikat Adeola, the majority leader in the House of Reps. Yoruba leaders complained severally to Jonathan about but he did nothing. Jonathan appointments of chief executives did not favoured south west while south east and south south were busy changing appointments as they like. You guys never thought of leaving Nigeria then. The Yoruba leaders waited for yet another opportunity to reposition themselves and they got it right in the last election. Even today, you will still see that in south west pple do not put their eggs in thesame basket. There are PDP governors in south west as we speak. The igbos should grow their own party, that is APGA and pick a presidential candidate and sell him to others because i doubt if can ever get presidential ticket of PDP.

tarekamos:



Yes, Yoruba man betrayed him but Jonathan as a leader was suppose to make a way for balancing in appointments. In spite of appeal from Yoruba leaders and Obas, did he do anything? Some pple gave him the impression that he could win without south west hence the name calling of Yoruba leaders are touts.

If Czecoslovakia could break without war, if the Soviet Union could break without war, if Yugoslavia could break without war then yes, Nigeria can break up without war. I'm Igbo, Im tired of Yorubas and Hausa/Fulani.

garfield16:



Nobody is handing you Oil well at a conference table, so you can kiss Biafra goodbye.

ChoCandyDiamond:

Secession will go a long way to resolve the matter, Nigeria politicians, sees Nigeria as no mans land, that is why they are looting the Treasury without looking back, If you have Odua and I have Biafra if my politicians loot our money we easily march down to their houses and deal with them, 56 years after independence nothing to show for it, what a shame

Quakertellicus1:
Rarely respond to threads like these....but...

If we break Nigeria...into how many countries do we break up into.?

That is the question...and that is why I as a minority is opposed to Nigeria's breakup....because it would be bad for minority tribes like mine.

Of course...I cannot pretend all is well. I have read my history....and I see how things are going.

It is just that...if we wanted to split...1966/67 would have been a good time.Then...every region had its source of cash....and sustenance. Not now...where we are all dependent on oil....a split means a big fight for oil.

Yes....Sudan and South Sudan....which happened under the auspices of the UN...and which took ten years...and which ensured that Sudan still had some oil...and almost immediately...Sudan increased transit fees for South Sudan oil piped thru their territory.

havennie:


I am from a minority group just like u and i am ok if Nigeria breaks up because the Middlebelt region and Niger delta region will surely have their own independent countries as minority groups.....enough of hausa, yoruba and igbo madness!

The Bishop is a red necked agama lizard.

There are over 200 ethnic nationalities in the country but because up in his stupid head the union doesn't seem to favour just one, it should be called off. Even ethnic minorities are showing a lot more maturity than some supposed elders.

Was the country just amalgamated yesterday?? Where was his voice during Jonathan's regime?? Did the herdsmen crisis begin yesterday?? Where was he between 2011 and 2015??

One day you want out of the union, the next day you wanna be the president, acting as though there's a Nobel prize for stupidity for which you are strong contender. And who says break up is a "sure banker" for peace??

Some people are just irritatingly foolish.

So you see, a peaceful break up is possible. As an Igbo man, do you think that I'm going to fight to be in 'one Nigeria' with the Yoruba or Hausa man? Of course not! So the question is, where will the so called war come from?

Deen77:


Why Biafra and Niger Delta, they are two different country, if we break, we break into pieces, at list 5 to 6/7 country.

LudaChriz:
Nigeria is not meant to be one.., the earlier we tell ourselves the truth the better

mandax:



Lol,

Living in denial.

One Nigeria is [b] a nightmare to the Yoruba, nightmare to most of the Middlebelt, nightmare to the Igbo, nightmare to the Ijaw, nightmare to the Bini, nightmare to the .... except to the Hausa/Fulani and some of its satellite tribes it controls in the north for whom One Nigeria is a bliss.

Gideon Okar of blessed memory from the Midlebelt saw far ahead of many people in today's Nigeria. [/b]

Quakertellicus1:


Have a good rest of the day,sir.

Tkester2:



You must be stooopid. What is hard in "I don't want to have any relationship with you". Which part of the sentence don't you understand? Igbo's want to be on their own, is that a hard thing?


Tufiakwa!

Quakertellicus1:


Of course a peaceful breakup is possible.!

I was challenging your assertion that the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia broke up without war.

omohanet:
In my opinion, I don't support separation, lets keep ONE NIGERIA. We can learn others cultures, Traditions, languages. Rather than clamouring for break-up, we focus on things that can promote the unity of the Nation.

VintageCocktail:
We've been learning that for over a hundred years and I think its time we graduate and find a well paying job .
