Ok, but is it on record that her 'Nigeria' was just a politically correct term for 'nigger area', and not 'Niger area' as our history books would have us believe?

And some people will come and start kicking against the name, and the forced amalgamation... Let me ask you this: don't you think after 113 years, we should have learned to keep peace with each other? After 113 years, can we seriously still be blaming oyinbo for our troubles? Are we children?

The Ibos want Biafra
The North wants Ibo's exit
The Yorubas want Ibo's exit
The Ibos are saying "we have investments in your areas and cannot leave them"
And the fight is being cooked.

Amongst all these, the President is in London
Governors are sharing bailout funds
Workers salaries are not paid
Government officials have their children schooling abroad
Ministers and senators are looting

The poor Hausa man is riding Okada
The poor Ibo man is riding Okada
The poor Yoruba man is riding Okada

The poor Hausa man sleeps under the bridge as Alamajiri
The poor Yoruba man sleeps under the bridge as Alaye
The poor Ibo man sleeps under the bridge as agbero

It is pertinent to note that the poor from all ethnic groups in Nigeria have everything in common and so is the rich.

Do not allow the agitation of an Ibo man who lives in UK or USA for Biafra cause the killing of the Ibo man in Adamawa. The rich hate us that much.
Do not allow the Alhaji whose children are living abroad to persuade you to go and start killing on the street of Kaduna.

The problem in the country is not the agitation of any ethnic group but the unity of the elite and the disunity of the masses.

How many times have you taken your agitation to question your local government Chairmen?

Why have you not asked your Governors through agitation how they spent bailout fund?

Why have you not agitated against that government official whose mansions you go to beg for help?

Sad to note;
All the Governors love themselves
All the past Presidents love themselves
All the senators love themselves
All the top government officials love themselves
All the looters love themselves

Why can't you and I love ourselves?
Why can we combine efforts and fight them?
Why do we fight ourselves?
Why do we allow them the freedom we don't have?

Remember; a good Nigeria is better than a good Arewa, Oduduwa or Biafra.

So that means you must be really proud to be named after a River by a white woman?

If the white woman didn't name Nigeria with that River someone else would have had to so why sweat it. That's not even close to the problems u Nigerians have to combat so far.

Biafra was named after an ancient kingdom that once covered what people now call SE/SS as well as the Southern Cameroon. This is where the name the bight of Biafra gets its name.

Unlike Nigerians that got their name from a common River.

Keep deceiving urself with ur Biafran misnomer. Who gave u guys such a mandate? No one, anyway enjoy ir freedom of speech. Use it well but ask urself a question, if Biafra happens to manifest where will u be? What part will u play in the coming of things? People that will benefit are those that are close to centre. Many of those in my circle though we dont go shouting Biafra, biafra, biafra at any tom, dick and Harry. Learn something from that.
