I Arrived Eastern Nigeria Yesterday. Here Are My Major Observations. by geoinvestor(m): 6:38pm On Jul 16, 2018 |
Yesterday was the first time I crossed the river Niger bridge to eastern Nigeria, I have always been exploring western and northern Nigeria. The states I have visited from yesterday are Anambra (Onitsha, Awka), Enugu and Ebonyi. These states are so beautiful and their roads are good( No much pothholes) . They are no much touts and I haven't seen any SARS around. Also, I haven't seen any mad person or beggar on the street. In Enugu, the roads are quiet and peaceful with lots of trees and their houses are very beautiful. I think they are more developed neighbourhood than underdeveloped neighbourhood. Transportation is easy to get. Onitsha is like Lagos, very busy. After crossing the river Niger, all you see are commercial areas. They are lots of pedestrian bridges in Onitsha, like Lagos. There are lots of construction going on in Abakailiki (especially along the road linking Enugu and Abakailki). The city is not that crowded and their roads are okay. Awka, the capital of Anambra is also beautiful. They are lots of flyovers. The governors of these States are really trying. If this region eventually become a nation with it own jurisdiction, they are going to be lots of development and I'm sure they are going to elevate from a third world nation within 10yrs. 33 Likes 3 Shares |

I keep telling my people...if u want an independent nation, stop chasing all south south and only chase the igbo speaking parts of south south. With igboland intact and secured, the igbos can seek self rule from nigeria and achieve it faster than attaching all south south. Cities in Igboland are Port harcourt (ikwerre-Igbo) - largest Igbo city Onitsha (onicha ado) Aba (Ngwa Igbo) Enugu (waawa igbo) - capital of Igboland Owerri Asaba (Anioma igbo) Abakaliki Umuahia Nsukka 4 Likes

selemempe: Definitely not Igbo. Rivers people don't see themselves as Igbo except Aniomas(a small tribe in Rivers) they aint the owners of Port Harcourt. |
Re: I Arrived Eastern Nigeria Yesterday. Here Are My Major Observations. by selemempe: 9:50pm On Jul 17, 2018 |
peacengine:well...they speak igbo dont they? And since we didnt colonise them, we can say this...if we share the same mother tongue and culture...then we belong together. If ikwere like let them see themselves as kanuris or british...if nigeria breaks up ikwereland is coming to igbos. Ikwere ppl should be ready to kill every igboman b4 we allow them join a proposed niger delta republic. Hwever under one nigeria they are free to claim anything sha 3 Likes |

selemempe:so u will force them to join Biafra without their consent just like u guys claim u were put in Nigeria without ur consent. and then u will have thesame problems u have in Nigeria in biafra |
Re: I Arrived Eastern Nigeria Yesterday. Here Are My Major Observations. by selemempe: 12:30am On Jul 18, 2018 |
1shortblackboy:we never claimed we were force to join Nigeria. The british gave great autonomy to the 3 regions in the Macpherson Constitution. Lagos was basically responsible for a few exclusive items...while the regions were powerful. That was the nigeria all of us signed up for. The coup of 66 however led to the ethnic cleansing of poor igbo traders in the north who were not consulted b4 Nzeogwu started killing people. Poor traders who are only ironsi's kin by name. What was worse...gowon claimed he should not be blamed for the killings...just as buhari says he is not to be blamed for the crisis in middle belt. That was how biafra became an option. And then the north immidiately changed our consititution to wat will favour them. On the case of ikwerres. They are an igboid group who benefited from the coal trade. There was already a port in calaba...but because the british wanted the largest tribe of the east (the igbos) to dominate in the region, they decided to build a port city in igboland for export of coal from enugu. That was how ph came about. Then the diobu chiefs didnt say they were not igbo. During the regional govt, the ikweres never said they were not igbo...why do u think we would take them serious now. Let me ask u...if nigeria breaks up and lagos refuse to join Yoruba land and opt to go it alone...do u think every Yoruba man will not pick up arms and fight them? Look it one thing for a clear ethni group like ibibio to say they dont want to be part of biafra...and its another thing for an igbo-speaking community to say they dont want to be part of igboland. Bro na there all of us go die o. Anyway i trust Aba boys...they will gladly start the revolution to recover p.h if nigeria ever breaks up 1 Like |
