What dreamkiller said about polygamy sounds funny but its true.
How can you compete with civilized world in technology whereas fulanis are hell bent in sabotaging all your efforts to rise because they think they have much influence in politics just because they gave good population. ? Don't forget how the efforts of entrepreneurs from the eastern regions are being sabotaged today. The handwriting is obviously on the wall.
I will only agree with your summission if this country is divided, but anything less than that, Easterners should practice polygamy to checkmate the excesses of northern domination. It will be a very sad situation if Igbos start doing such, but they must do it because they don't have an alternative and its also an escape route from northern domination. .. Remember that we are talking of politics here which is a game of numbers.
You can't succeed in technological advancement if you are not in a conducive environment, and the only way you can get that conducive environment is to have a say in politics which is still determined by the number of your people.
But unfortunately, I don't see Igbos practicing such because they are Christians who will see such as a sin. That means the last option is to break this country. Let Igbos who are Christians have their own country and engage in family planning for a better society, while Hausas have theirs and breed more children as they like where nobody will have time to check their population since their Islamic religion permits that.

One of the ugliest thing about Nigeria us how the primative ignorance of our nieghbors is normalized. We now have agberos, and next we want to start having 30 children because fulanis. It's disgusting. Please, no functional society practice polygamy as they have all identified it as a destroyer of nation's. Next well be pushing incest because Fulanis do it.

Nobody can do anything to Ndigbo. How are they sabatoguing us but we're living better than them. Will you send 22 kids to a university or will we stop going to school to compete too

Xander85:


Are you judging the norths numbers by all the ojoro census that has been conducted in Nigeria right from the time of the Brits, when they decided to hand Nigeria over to the 'compliant' north?

Besides, a good number of those huge figures they love rubbing in our faces is made up of Illegal immigrants and their spawn, with a few goats, cows and chickens thrown in for good measure!

This is not to say they don't have a huge population today. But the genuine numbers are as a result of early marriage and polygamy!

Cjrane2:


GBAM!

The people we are asked to copy have run down a wealthy nation like Nigeria. Stolen all the wealth to northern Nigeria, yet remained the poorest region in the world. They cannot stand the Igbos in 30 days of serious warfare if they didn't get help and arms supplied by Britain etc.

We must not copy the folly of Fulanis in things like breeding children they cannot take care of. It is silly and against Igbo tradition and civilization. The same Fulanis have tried everything in their power to marginalize and destroy Igbos for decades, yet they could not. Even when Igbos decided not to retaliate and push forward with building a "One Nigeria" for all. That is where our own silliness is bigger than stupidity of other Nigerians. We have fed ourselves bogus lies about Nigeria and have failed to wake up from those fake illusions we conjured about Nigeria inspite of glaring evidence to the contrary.

The question every Igboman should ask himself today is "Who benefits more from my sweat and business?" Is it my homeland in Igboland or the same Fulani and some Yoruba collaborators that have left no stone unturned to annihilate and impoverish me and my relatives. If something happened in Nigeria today and i am forced to suddenly leave this place, do i have enough wealth elsewhere not to end up a poor man for the rest of my life? If after a careful assessment, you realize that you are working for your enemies to benefit from your sweat by simply issuing a "QUIT NOTICE", then you must take steps to redress it ASAP!

As other Nigerians do, Igbos should learn to patronize their own. Buy with pride products of factories based in Igboland, use banks that have Igbos in their highest positions or better owned by Igbos, invest in businesses that will profit you and help our people overcome the dangerous dependence on Fulani herdsmen for food and animal protein.

The time to think strategically and pool resources together to benefit yourself, your family, your state, your homeland and your people has come.

Igbos be alert and strategic in your thinking and actions today. Tomorrow might be too late for us to reverse all these mistakes we have been making thinking of Nigeria as perpetually "One Country". There are several reason to see that it is indeed false hope that we have fed ourselves for decades. Let us wake up and have a deep re-think.

CyynthiaKiss:

OK, let's assume that their population figure is false, Do you know that those immigrants are those that are helping them to achieve their political aim especially during electioneering period ?. Not only that they come to Nigeria, they come into Nigeria to settle and marry, hence the increase in their population coupled with the fact that their religion permits more wives and children.

Remember that our borders are porous and Nigeria is an attractive country to those fulanis in Niger. If you go to the north east and see how fulanis from Niger are trooping into Nigeria, you will shake your head for this country. Note that you can't differentiate Niger fuanis from Nigeria fulanis because they are the same people.... The only difference is British demarcation ( Nigeria)
If these I mentioned above continues like this, why won't they outnumber you in years to come (if they have not outnumbered us as you claim ?)

Why is Buhari building a rail way that connected Niger and Nigeria ? What's our business with those backward people/ country ?. Even if he must connect such rail way, why not connect it to other productive locations ?.
His intention is nothing but dominance using his Fulani brothers in Niger as tools and nothing more.
The only thing that will save this country is total restructuring or balkanization.

OreMI22:


Whether Buhari builds railway to Libya, it is their business. They will finally realize that it is better to fix Nigeria, than look for solace with other nomadic tribes in the desert. I don't believe having children we cannot take care of is a way to survive in Nigeria. Nigeria will ultimately dismember either through violence or peacefully unless it restructures. It is likely to restructure as soon as oil runs out. So either way, it does not make sense to breed like rats because northerners have done so.

Ofodirinwa:
In our quest to chase concrete to the grave, lets not forget the value VEGETATION adds to a city. I think we should flood our cities with parks

bestviewer:



Hehehehe.. Abia is dead truly but please come back to our game. I need to give you more blows

OMANBALA1:


Take this word of wisdom from me and nibble on it.
Anambra has what it takes to lead Igbo and the Igbo knows this and will indulge us but we have to play a different kind of politics for them to submit their loyalty. But what you are doing here is disgusting and in a real situation I would behead you before your kinsmen. Your arrogance is trashy and you have attracted more enemies than friends to Ndi Anambra.

Anambra people dont have to blow their own horn because Ndigbo know our track record and celebrate it but we must be humble before they can succumb to our leadership. I have traveled far and wide and see how the Igbo celebrate Anambra but consciously and unconsciously and it gladens my heart at the same time humbles me. There is a very ancient proverb in Idenmili....Enefee dike ekee ekpo ya!

Nice thread. One of the major problems affecting trade in Igboland is lack of proximal seaports as those in neighbouring coastal communities have not been properly utilized as a result of insecurity and vested interest making all commerce basically Lagos dependent for Igbos.

This makes the ongoing building of the largest air cargo handling facility in West Africa at a community near Owerri one of the most vital projects in Igboland as it serves as a direct access to international trade. The interesting thing is that the storage facilities are being built for perishables which will make for easy import and export of agricultural, medical and other perishables easier for people of the Southeast and beyond. The project to the best of my knowledge is at the finishing stage and should soon be ready for bidding.

OMANBALA1:



Nnaa, this place looks like paradise and what does it take to achieve this ....Not much. Our "rulers" are ffoollish and lazy!

selemempe:
wat about the actual cargo airport?

selemempe:
wat about the actual cargo airport?

Cjrane2:


Building the warehouses are cool.

My two main concerns are:

1. When Okorocha wil utilize all he has done for Buhari and loyalty to his administration to get SMICA gazetted as an international airport.
2. When runway extension to 3KM will happen to allow large bodied cargo planes to land comfortably in the airport.

Unless these two critical pieces are done very quickly, building of 30 cargo storage rooms is a senseless investment because the plane will be unable to come without these key approval and runway extension done.

Abagworo:


It has nothing to do with leadership or rulership but Nigerians as a people. We don't appreciate vegetation.

OMANBALA1:


We love vegetation but the perennial neglect our environment suffered because of bad leadership is the reason why nobody seems concerned. We need leaders who can sensitize and encourage us to keep and clean our environment and when this is done and everywhere starts looking lush and beautiful we will come to appreciate the importance of vegetation. Good leadership goes a long way.

Abagworo:


In Nigeria people refer to an area with vegetation as undeveloped.

One thing that God had blessed Igbo land with is cash crops but how many governors are investing in cash crops.
Oji ugolo
Oji Igbo
Udala
Utu
Oloma
Ube Igbo
Ube Oyibo
Aku Oyibo..etc should be planted in millions and in about 30 years we will be so ffuccking rich but everybody want something that will be done today. Our leaders are lazy and visionless. My father had a kola nut tree that brought so much money into our house and this was just one tree.
