EVERY Social RELATIONSHIP IS NEGOTIABLE, EVEN UNSOCIAL RELATIONSHIP IS NEGOTIABLE ( the victim and victimizer can negotiate a way to end bad situations) your money or your life? can be some of your money or your life? 
I guess the wise and foolish igbo or ibo man and even south south can be mistaken for igbos therefore everyone should take this treat seriously, and make adequate plan to leave the north or properly prepare to defend himself unto death whenever and wherever the occasion arise (market office on the road and even in his room. be ready to take at least an attacker with you to haven and meet God to settle it there. Be brave! Because death comes but once and no one or group has a monopoly of violence, weapon knows so one.
Go through the history and see that most of the northerners and even the South-Westerners do not really know what they want.
because the igbos have gone and done further than any ethnic group or ethnic nationality in Nigeria to cement brotherhood, they build best houses and business whenever they found themselves (from buying ocean and sand filling to build grand home in Lagos to leveling of sand dome in kano) they bring about social development in the same strike too. if in doubt check out the old Orile iganum and the current one, same with Okota Ijesha, Maza-maza and Amuwo Odofin and Festac extension in Lagos, I don't want to mention Lekki axis we all know what the Ibos (Igbos developers if you like) did. then compare same with Mushin, Isale eko, Oko oba Agege to sango axis and even Ikorodu just read evening news and you can draw conclusion on the areas listed above with most backward uncivilized happening news
e.g man killed and eyes plugged for rituals, Area boys raid street or shops, woman raped at night, and man 50years defile 7 year old girl lured with Agege bread. all forms of odd unbelievable retrogressive news
and where do you read news like New 3 star hotel build by?(Okoro) Man gift his girlfriend a new car, grand opening of Uche Plazza etc?
Ndi-Igbo have always been regarded as second class citizens in deed, indirectly and directly! just like the Black Americans in the USA
it's Systematic maybe unofficial and unwritten but it has been an accepted and practiced code-red since the end of the Nigerian-Biafra Civil War of 1969. the hatred is palpable as soon as you say your names and it sound IBO their face countenance change to 6:30 o'clock(AM or PM) sleepy. they are in a hurry to dismiss you or frustrate you, but WHY? Igbos are bad yet they pay the highest house rental shop or house, they pay higher transportation to and fro to Ibo dominated areas, like Masha, Lawason etc. TEJUOSHO AND OYINBO markets are at lost to Lagos Government because the NDI-IGBO are unwilling to buy. go to markets at ALABA, TRADE FAIR, WARE HOUSE TINCAN APAPA, LADIPO MARKET.
compare with market dominated by Hausas and Yorubas like Mushin, Oyinbo, Alaba rago ojo, suru alaba ojo, Boundary ajegunle, Ijora Badia, Pen cinema Agege, Ikorodu, Ojota mile12, Itire Bariga, so unclean unkempt and disorganized, they cook and sleep in some of the markets
prove me wrong and list out Federal Government presence(built assets) in all the regions and compare same with the South-East region or states
in the same manner other Ethnic nationalities in Nigeria should also list there businesses and properties in the Igbo nation (the South-East Governors would have and should used this major neglect by Federal as their joint barging chips irrespective of their party affiliations) they should also form consortium and develop Roads and toll them for the development of their states(joint water broad, joint industrial layouts at their interstate bounders will make sense that each state going solo with huge project and fail to complete them. they can build interstate dual carriage ways to link themselves and open up the South-East, Tourist and youth recreational centers and produce Stars. let it be know that the Federal Government plan is to under develop the South-East. Am not pro Biafra but hey they are right because they feel neglected.
If the Federal Government will be wise and develop each region Nigeria will be great no region that is lacking in resources and human capital,
if they can't am begging them to consider outsourcing (to import) governance to Indians, Chinese and Germans consortium and see what will happen in just 5 years.
They will clearly and accurately map out our resources make projection and balance our books and business will take shape, the Generals and cabal will still have their percentage coming if not even flowing to them with much ease and Nigeria will remain stable too (win-win for all)
The Ndi-Igbos should use this opportunity well and put their foot down, for a clear cut referendum, restructuring and possible constitutional backing or accommodation of protection and compensations of life and properties from warring youths of the north and south west.
Anytime the youths of the North and South-West wants to[b] loot and rape[/b] they go for Ndi-Igbos and in the end no one is jailed and no guarantee it won't happen again or a compensation to Propitiate and as a palliative measures for the lost of life and properties on the side of the targeted victims (be it Ndi-Igbos, Christians or any non indigenes may suffer from Indigenous groups or State official fiat with bad socioeconomically but political motivated and unwarranted affliction)
to this I call the Good people of The North, the South-West and Igbos and all the Good and God fearing Minds to press it on the Government and especially our bicameral Legislators to as a matter of urgency enact laws that will make it mandatory, for victims to receive compensations and unhindered access to health and basic needs to ameliorate the pains of ethnic brutality visited on non indeigenes, if possible their should be a clear formula to make every government organ fill the impact so that they will be on the watch to prevent further and future accordance,
e.g Federal government will own 40%
State Government will pay 30%
and Local Government will pay 20%
and political office holders will make 10%
this way the all will see the sense in keeping the peace and prosecuting the parties involve to the full extent of the law
Same for resource control, the people should own a giving percent in the resources of their state or local governments and pay tax.
if Mr. A and Mr. X are from Lagos mainland local government and buy to own a share of 1% in any company or resources located in their Local Government Area (LGA) They will be willing to expose any act of sabotage or vandalism that may want to befall the company or the illegal mining of the resource because they have direct and indirect interest in the affairs of the companies or resources in that their local government, and may suffer direct lost if any bad operation befall the normal operations of the companies and resources.
so if you own a share from the resources or big company in your local government that gives you about 10k monthly or even yearly, will you want to loose it to bad guys in your community that wants to spoil show? oh No you will give info that will give them out to the police.
In fact, they will blow the whistle so loud that the police have no choice but to arrest the bad guys and will not even think of taking bribe
Nigeria need to move on to greater things not i be Ibo or i be Yoruba or Hausa. i see sane people do business with insane people because of common interest. yes madmen give lucky number to gamblers of baba ijabu and nairabet, all they want is win win situation,
if this can happen in Nigeria there is hope and there is God, all i want is to see Nigerian and in fact all the human race unite, If the sky is large enough to contain all the stars so how big are we? You have sense. |
