Uhhh there is no way Nigeria can seperate peacefully Sjeezy and the millions of sjeezys in Nigeria/abroad will surely not fight in a civil war.

You may have to first smoke out the [b]sjeezy8[/b]s of Yorubaland first before our Southern Nigeria talk continues. That is the main challenge to a southern unity/understanding. I'll leave that to you.

Katsumoto:

The above does not make sense. Are you following the progression of the thread? So if Odua becomes a republic and Arewa declares that it must have access to the Atlantic Ocean, will Odua not be forced to fight or given in like cowards? Why should you make a statement such as that highlighted in bold? You are further perputating the myth that Yorubas are sell-outs.

Onlytruth:

Dokubo Asari was openly calling for an alliance with the Igbo to enable the Ijaw move the fight forward, according to him "we need their number".

I have taken time to thoroughly study all the issues concerning Southern Nigeria and I concluded that no nation can exist down there without the ability of its components to fight off an enemy. People can make all the noise about Oduduwa republic but I remember that Ojukwu was sending a Biafran expeditionary force to Lagos and then Ibadan to constitute the first Oduduwa republic defense force before Oduduwa can assemble enough army for her own defense. That was one of his major miscalculations, because the force was seen as an invading force and sabotaged/stopped at Ore.

The Igbo (together with the Ibibio/Annag) might have lost a war but I still believe that they and the Ijaw are the only groups in the south that have ever demonstrated a motivation, ability and penchant for fighting a war. This is not meant as an insult to the Yoruba. I'm just stating the history of Nigeria as is.

The idea of a southern Nigeria can work because the Yoruba won't need to fight a war for it. There are other southerners to do that, provided the Yoruba are genuinely on-board and not try again to double deal. If the north think for a second that there would be a weak link in the south, you can kiss this southern Nigeria republic bye bye.
I also believe that you can easily convince the Igbo in Lagos to help fight off any northern invasion.
People should be realistic here. Only a foolish man does not acknowledge his own limits. Nigeria's history is still fresh and we know who did what in the recent past.

Then Yoruba voted for Obasanjo massively in 2003?
Igbo did vote for MKO in 1992. You are again twisting facts

Vote Breakdown and Analysis

Voter turnout was higher in the south than in the north. The Social Democratic Party (SDP) candidate Moshood Abiola received over 8 million votes, and won in 19 states and the Federal Capital Territory. The National Republican Convention (NRC) candidate Alhaji Bashir Tofa received over 6 million votes and won in 10 states only. Over 14 million people voted. Abiola won in Akwa Ibom, Anambra, Benue, Borno, Cross River, Delta, Edo, Jigawa, Kaduna, Kano, Kwara, Lagos, Ogun, Ondo, Osun, Oyo, Plateau, Taraba, and Yobe states, and the Federal Capital Territory. Tofa won in Abia, Adamawa, Bauchi, Enugu, Imo, Katsina, Kebbi, Kogi, Niger, Rivers and Sokoto States.

Abiola’s victory was comprehensive as he won almost 60% of the total votes cast. Only in two states (Kebbi and Sokoto) did Abiola fail to obtain at least one-third of the votes. Abiola even defeated Tofa in Tofa’s home state of Kano.

LOL Such a shame. Only on the internet you'd see Igbos and Yorubas at each other as vicious as this.
Maybe some kids should stop eating what their parents are feeding them

not only on the internet oh!

Did you say only Anambra voted for MKO? Can you prove that? And if so, is Anambra an Igbo state? If so, why do you say Igbo did not vote for MKO?
+ are you saying that other Igbo states voted 100% for Tofa?

Your own quote
What does the bolded part indicate?

SEFAGO:


yeah me neither, but thanks to mekusxxx . . . I should sue the pot-bellied man. Its also a very male thing. Most of the women here are small-time ethnocentrist, and fake ones too except for Tpia and FLgator, The Amaka

Men are usually the ones quick to take up a cause that seems to insult their pride. [/b]As you can see 95% of the ethnocentric threads come from men, the women are more in the romance section looking for love

FL Gators:

Me too!!! And that's only because of the internet. I'v never seen so much people go at each other like this.
Even the young NLers who knew nothing absolutely nothing about Nigeria are so ready to be tribalists/ innocent tribalists.
Tells you how much the internet can influence you

Yorubas arent sell outs because they dont have an agreement with the any tribe or region.

One there will never be an arewa republic because of the norths dependence on ND oil. Even sultan of sokoto wouldnt want that.

Two why would any sensible yoruba join Federal Republic Of South Nigeria with those who have anti yoruba sentiments in them? When have the East and West ever agreed on anything?

Yorubas voted for olu falae, the East voted for Obasanjo
Yorubas voted for Mko abiola, the east voted for Bashir Tofa
Yorubas voted for Awo, the East voted for Zik
Abacha killed and imprisoned many promninent yorubas, Ojuwku befriended Abacha

Three Federal Republic Of South Nigeria is a joke as if the East or west wont try and secede on their own.
Im being realistic
