deedeedee1:I have never supported the goddamn nation, and I don't comment much on the issue cos I want all to go. But the moment they start insulting my tribe, my people, I always return it to them, but they will start crying how they are hated forgetting they started it first. I am Yoruba before Nigeria, and if Nigeria splits today, I will still be Yoruba. So I cannot take it when some people insult my identity. |

wizzakosh:Lols! Egbon, the only reason you see me attack yorubas is if they insult people that want to leave the country or the ones that shout "one Nigeria" all over the place. They stink me! I know that these igbos blame Yorubas for everything, this is one of the reasons i support Nigeria disintegration. They will have nobody to blame and insult anymore when they get biafra. Let the country just split and everybody should go and answer their father's name |

okosodo: Have you listened to Chief Okoi? You will wonder where he got his law degree from. The man is as dumb as a door knob. Let us take sentiment aside, Nigeria has not successfully prosecuted any criminal since PMB came into power. Every one of the looters walked with their loot. Sarki, PEJ, Orubebe, FFK, etc. and someone somewhere is still listening to the likes of Chief Okoi. He is only there to collect his salaries and entitlements. I am not a lawyer but if I sue in pro per and Okoi is the defending attorney, I can walk through him in a law court. That's how much I respect his legal knowledge. / 3 Likes |

The genuine course of the agitations for the restructuring of the country shall collapse due to poor thought process, greed,lack of coordination, n impossible demands, for goodness sake what is the feasibility of conducting a referendum in the nearest future, what is the feasibility if going back to 1963 constitution, is it not better to push for practically possible position like restructuring based on current state structure with a proviso on future creation of states where possible n necessary, but with more emphasis of political power n economic administrative model acceptable by all rather pursuing a restructuring geared towards radical alterations if the country that is most likely to face resistance?,if this opportunity is allowed to fail,the core north will just jeer at the rest of the country n scornfully treat others with complete contempt. |

Who told you it's not possiblel? The Constitution can be amended.So the defective system Nigeria operates should continue? Everybody is just tired of this country.A revolution is at hand that will sweep these useless people holding this nation to ransome because they're benefitting from the statuquo.So don't worry,Nigeria will either divide peacefully or by force.Meanwhile this man alongside the attorney general and the EFCC have been endlessly losing high-profile anti-corruption cases because of poor legal technicalities is the one talking this poo. Thank you Nnamdi Kalu for letting us know that 99% in this govt are goat putting on coats. Calling white black. Nigerian const. is open to amrndment. Since yhr is long over due wsit for Nnamdi Kalu he will show you guys the way forward. Octobrr1st 2017 we stand. |

if restructuring and referedum can't and won't improve the governance process and inter-groups relations. What measure then can Nigeria apply to steady the ship of state? This man just told Nigerians that he is one of the problems with the change team. How on earth will characters with this type of thought pattern improve governance and deliver progress? |

Re: Okoi Obono-Obla: "Biafra Referendum Legally & Politically Impossible" by slivertongue: 7:37pm On Jul 01, 2017 |
PreyingMantis: Restructuring is paradigm shift. Doing things more progressively. eg do away with national grid, structure power to regions of three or four states sell d excess to nearby states or region then mark out states or regions without established means of generating power and develop the best means to generate for them. desert state can develop theirs based on solar and wind. agric is our comparative advantage so we can agree or design a policy which will provide funds for mechanized farming, modern silos etc with government buying over the surplus and sell it. At the same time industries for the processing of this raw materials sud be estalished. etc Nigeria is not lacking in willing and responsible enterprenures. There is no need for dogon turanci and setting up committees. The Nigerian law as it is, is good enough to midwife change even if it is a little if we keep faith with all its provisions but we observe the law in breach. lastly Nigeria's is problem is not really with the constitution even though it contributes alittle to dilemma but the operators are the problem |

[quote author=hammer6 post=58009338]Becos Nigeria has already lost. Nigeria held referendum and South West Cameroon left, Adamawa came. Nigeria will hold referendum so Biafra can exit. If Nigeria fails, the UN will do it for them. [/quote A country in the Middle of a country I think the people agitating for Biafra Has Mental disturbance. They need rehabilitation |

PreyingMantis: the constitution doesnt provide for graft but they engage in it the constitution doesnt provide for change - paradigm shift which is the platform this govt campaigned on the constitution doesnt provide for progress so what does it provide for? look u dont need to overhaul the constitution to do the above. simple policy design within existing framework will be a starting point. tell the constitutional provision for the roads in abj, stadium, railways, airports |
