Two Reasons Make The Bill To Fail: 1. They Igbo (PDP) refuse to build bridges with other members, they choose to buid walls. Who do you expect to support this bill: The illiterate Ab0ki or the Ewedu eating brown teeth Afonjas. You have fight with every every. 2. The bill is uncalled for. The southeast is Paradise, Biafrans have developed it. Those kinda of bills is meant for the poverty backward illiterate north or northeast specifically. We already have commision for the backward northest, remain commission for backward northwest, followed by Northcentral. The north must be drag from 1960 to 2017 and that's what Emir of Kano Sunusi is calling for. 107 Likes 6 Shares |

It would have even been useless if the bill had scaled through. The song of every Igbo man is singing now is "Breakup" nothing more nothing less. The one @bokis have, where are they today ? Majority of them look so hungry and malnourished, even when they also claim to feed the nation. How can you claim to be feeding someone when hunger is your company ?. YOU CAN NOT GIVE WHAT U DON'T HAVE. 73 Likes 5 Shares |

FriendNG: Pls how many bridges did North East build after bombing their places to middle age cos of Islam? Your problem is that young generations of Igbo people have refused to kowtow to whims and caprices of "born to rule" feudalists. From 1999 till 2015, we have supported all presidential candidates other people brought, even leaving ours, and what we get is "we don't build bridges", we can never be subdued, fvck your bridges. Kicking out SEDC doesn't stop diseases that the world had forgotten to be ravaging other "privileged" enclaves, neither does it bridge the gap of human development index that is on the back footing in other enclaves compared to ours. The only thing it may delay is building PortHarcourt road Aba, and Aba-Azumini-Ikotekpene road, it does not stop Aba fabricators from crafting dredging and agro allied machineries, it does not stop Aba fashion industries from shipping 3 million pairs of shoes outside the country weekly. Burn the fvckng bridges, the ones we built aren't giving us any leverage whatsoever. 128 Likes 7 Shares |

I need to remind you that ur demi-god Buhari borrowed N5trn to build only a helipad in Daura and Abuja runway, you should be concerned of how you will pay back the loans and/or service the interests, you think it is by threat. 58 Likes 4 Shares |

Agumbankembu: The Senate on Thursday passed a bill to establish the North-East Development Commission (NEDC) to be partly funded by; 1. 3 per cent of Value Added Taxes accruable to the Federal Government. 2. 15 per cent of allocation to the states 3. 50 per cent deduction of the ecological fund due to the six North Eastern states. Read more at: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/10/senate-passes-bill-establishing-north-east-development-commission/ Please note; About 70% of total VAT is generated from Lagos. Allocation to the states and ecological fund is hand outs of oil revenue from the nigerdelta. Now answer the question; where will the SEDC get its funding? 11 Likes |

SMH [b]Today on the floor of the national Assembly, Hon Chukwuka Onyema, deputy minority leader of the house of representatives, presented a bill seeking to establish the South-East Development Commission. Hon Leo Ogor, from Delta state supported it and urged the members to vote in its favour. 3 Members from the North spoke against it, citing one reason or the other. Then it was put to a voice vote and was defeated and stepped down. Trust me, this is one of the reasons Nnamdi Kanu's message will continue to resonate in the part of the country where I come from. His job is simple, his loyal lieutenants will play this news on Radio Biafra this night, then remind the audience that religiously follow the radio station in that part of the country that you see, these guys hate us. "Which kind of stupid country is that"? They will also remind their audience how North East commission bill was passed at the floor of House of Reps without opposition from South East house of Rep members but now it is our turn, they decided not to allow it sail. They will also add that the money to fund the North East commission will come from the backyard of Biafra and how the North contributes nothing to the national purse except being a leech. They will also remind these guys how their kith and kin traveling home for Christmas from Lagos and Abuja last year were embarrassed and their bags of rice they are traveling with confiscated for no reason than it is a foreign rice and the person traveling with it is Igbo and the most marginalized ethnic group since Mohammed Buhari became president. It is simple and easy for the like of Kanu to sell their narrative and people from that part of the country will listen. Tomorrow if Nnamdi Kanu decides to shut down that part of the country and instruct the folks there to stay at home, you think they won't listen to him? No it is not a coincidence. We really need to have a conversation on how to live together in this union. No ethnic group or association should have greater bargaining power, let equity and equality be the watch word in our journey to nationhood. The union is in dire need of restructuring and unless that is done very soon, the cymbals of separation will continue to get louder. - Chukwudi Iwuchukwu[/b] 17 Likes |
