[s]The request by some Northern youth groups for Igbos in the South East to be allowed to hold referendum and become Biafra is a trap. It is intended to turn the South East into the world’d biggest ‘independent’ prison. Why do we say so? Let’s examine the facts.

Igbos would no longer be Nigerian citizens and therefore could easily be deported from Lagos and other parts of Nigeria: instead of traveling around Nigeria freely as Nigerian citizens, they would have to return to Biafra and go to the Nigerian Embassy to get visa to return to their properties in Lagos, Abuja, etc.

Something tells me that if ever Igbos are mass deported in this situation, they will have to pay through their noses to go back to their jobs and houses and schools in Nigeria.

[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font]And some Nigerian state governments would impose quota saying, ‘ Now we have tricked the Igbos out. Let us impose immigration quota on them to keep them out. Nigeria will only accept 10,000 Igbo immigrants per year. And any Igbo coming in must be made to pay through their nose for visa and work permit.’ South East Igbos, how about that?

If you try to shout that you were born in Lagos and are therefore a Lagosian, they will remind you that you are no longer a Nigerian citizen but a foreigner, since your people decided to vote for ‘independence’.

So, all of you Igbos that live outside the South East don’t rejoice over this referendum. Defeat it with common sense reasoning.

So, Igbos should lose a market of 170 million that they dominate? What other people are praying for we should throw away?

Ask those screaming "Ndigbo lata ulor" what finances and infrastructure they have on ground to support the any returnees. None. So, if South East Igbos are summoned back to a new country, how would they get jobs? Or would they just be abandoned to sleep on the streets?

Better to clamour for restructuring and Igbo presidency in Nigeria. Self determination is a right, but you don't use up all your options at once. If there is chance for restructuring, better treatment, you use it before you start saying Igbos should throw away a 170 million strong market. O diro mma.

Don't you know it is more competitive to sell Aba made shoes and Innoson vehicles to Lagos and Abuja without paying expensive tariffs? Ndigbo, ka anyi lo kwanu ifa elo.

You are a million times better than Mazi

You have in depth knowledge

That's what that prisoner called kanu lacks

MayorofLagos:
I strongly believe some parts of SS will go into the Biafran union with Ibos.

I read Ekweremadu's speech about why Biafra must be rejected. One of the unknown factor in his thoughts is the direction of SS.

Im truly surprised that even a very highly placed and politically accomplished person like Ekweremadu could not find a bridge path across which to build alliance with ethnicities in his neighbourhood. Thats appalling! Ekweremadu has been deputy Senate Leader for the third consecutive time and been in Senate since 2003, yet he lacks negotiating skills to connect and cement binding relationships with the people in SS. Maybe not all...but at least two with resource and access to sea and an international border.

The coalition with Jonathan was fruitful, it should have a followup and expansion agenda for regional understanding and growth, as well political and military cooperation.

The reason your alarm will ring fears and change atittude about Biafra is because Biafran leaders are politically inept. This is why Kanu is winning. He is raw, politically incorrect, a rebel to the conservative Nigeria and offers the Biafrans a relief of fresh air from under the suffocation.

nextprince:
Before nko?
Besides, that is even subject to the approval of Nigerian government.
Additionally, Nigeria needs to recruit more young Nigerians into her immigration service.

igbodefender:
Ndigbo, you see what I am saying? Hear from the horses mouth! Igbo must not be led like lamb to a great slaughter!

igbodefender:
The day after 'independence' through AYCF induced referendum what next? Ndigbo, if you support this referendum False Gift from the AYCF better begin to retrace your steps.

You have better options.

Blizzy9ja:
Have you ever thought about the benefits and try to place them side by side

igbodefender:
Thanks for the praise, but we must say KANU has his strong points and we would like to see him contest politics (within Nigeria) to help Ndigbo however he can.

sarrki:



I keep telling who so ever cares to listen that mazi is not Sharp.

He ought to have used his cult of large followership to negotiate better for Nigerian masses
.he would have been loved by all ethnic, tribes ,Religion and beliefs

Franzinni:
Bro you are on point... But i feel Nigeria is lost. patriotism is now a myth in this country.. I am not igbo, but i i see the view of biafrans.

Yyeske:
kanu wouldn't lecture those IPOB miscreants about this, how are you sure the Nigerian government would even grant Biafrans visas since they voted to leave
