Ibo rage and anger in full effect, Y'all need to pic a spokesman for me to address directly, too many loud mouths everywhere screaming and yelling at the same time. |

tpiah: Stop imagining things. Are you on cracks? It seems you know nothing about state revenue. With all the big guns gone elsewhere, that means reduced tax and less income. |
Re: Is Aba A Reflection Of What Biafra Would Have Been? by tpiah: 7:16pm On Oct 01, 2010 |
^^you're dreaming in la la land. less crowding= better planning, more amenities for those who reside there. check photos of lagos in 1965 and compare them with lagos in 2008. notice anything? |
Re: Is Aba A Reflection Of What Biafra Would Have Been? by excanny: 7:43pm On Oct 01, 2010 |
tpiah: It still depends on the type of crowd you are talking about. Companies and businesses move with new ports created. Less crowding doesn't automatically equals to better plan. There are many cities in Nigeria that have lesser population than Lagos, but are not as developed as Lagos. So it's all about the state's ability to get internally generated revenue + whatever it can recieve from the Federation Account. This is how Nigeria works, in case you are already lost. |
Re: Is Aba A Reflection Of What Biafra Would Have Been? by tpiah: 8:51pm On Oct 01, 2010 |
^^dont worry yourself about how lagos will generate revenue. that is not a problem. |

^^^ Maybe sell sands from the Bar Beach. That would be a nice idea. |
Re: Is Aba A Reflection Of What Biafra Would Have Been? by tpiah: 9:04pm On Oct 01, 2010 |
nothing wrong with selling sand if there's a market for it. silicone chips are made from sand. |

Babapupa, your own don too much sef. Lagos na your own? You want everybody to leave Lagos for you because you be Lagosian and not Nigerian abi? When we start to yarn of Civil war now, you go talk how one mechanised division take bomb Asaba, without asking why they were bombing Asaba in the first place. You need to go and ask your father why he did not let Igbos to leave when we wanted to leave. Why he had to kill and risk dying just to Keep Igbos in Lagos state so that you will understand why you should shut your Eczema infested mouth. Crack head like you. Pls mamapupa abi na babapupa answer the above question, pharoah why not let my ppl go? I wonder what lagos will be if not for igbo boys? we came all the way from the east, we control things in ur lagos, we live in the most developed part of ur lagos viz-a-viz lekki, ikoyi, VI, ikeja, Ajao, Festac, Ago, Apapa,surulere etc while u the lagos owner live in the slum areas of Ajegunle, mushin, iyana-ipaja, abule-egba, ajah, ikotun, ajangbadi, we do our business in cluster areas we developed to our taste eg, Alaba, ladipo, Apapa wharf etc and ur lagos owners dont have say cos we pay them tax which are used to develop ur lagos. Ok now, it seems u have woken up from ur slumber and u want the igbo boys to leave lagos for u lazy f.ools without realising ur forefather's fought tooth and nail to make sure OMO-IBO doent leave lagos. u see ur life? Lagos is nt the only yoriba state, where are others, cos we know who is developing lagos for u lagos owner, why are OMO-IBOS not migrating to ekiti state, even ondo state that is nearer to the east? Why? Do u think lagos was developed over nyt? was lagos not the capital of nigeria b4? just like Gwari ppl claiming they developed Abuja with their allocation if the capital of nigeria moves to another city, are u talking to a day old child? do u think the state allocation of lagos state can pay civil servant's salary? do u know its the OMO-IBOS that pay ur father's salary and develop ur lagos with their tax maoney? why are ur leaders always suppressing the opening up of onitsha port? why? why? they know the after effect / consequence. u need to have a re-think mr lagos owner! |

the poster is obviously trying to be naughty. What he posted really makes no sense. Going by ur logic poster, it would be correct to say, Jos killings and the problems of the nation today is as a result of the inexistence of the Biafran state. |

Re: Is Aba A Reflection Of What Biafra Would Have Been? by londoner: 12:42am On Oct 03, 2010 |
Well, its useless to speculate, but, IF Biafra would have been, MAYBE the people of the Niger Delta would have seen some development in their area. MAYBE, because of that, there would have been no MEND or MILITANTS, or KIDNAPPING of oil workers. MAYBE, others in IGBOLAND would have no thought about a copy cat tactic to fast easy money. MAYBE then, people on NAIRALAND would not be so obsessed with Biafra their neighbouring country and the Igbo's as the "problem tribe" altogether, But then, whats the use of ifs? Apart from the cheap shots fired at anything Igbo, we Igbos need to address the situation fast, as we are the ones suffering the most under our own "kinsmen". Thats the truth we must face, whether we like it or not. Just because your neighbours house is on fire at the same time as yours, doesn't mean you dont need to fetch water. |
Re: Is Aba A Reflection Of What Biafra Would Have Been? by londoner: 12:59am On Oct 03, 2010 |
I remember a thread not so long agao on the celebrity section of this site, where an Igbo poster created a thread about "our Igbo brother Chiwetel" doing so well. Its funny, people stampeded him for making close reference to him being Igbo in particular and not simply Nigerian. When it is something good, we Nigerians (ALL of us) love to claim the glory brought through other tribes whether it is people like Chinue Achebe, Sade, Seal, Wole Soyinka. Those people, because its positive allow us to see past their tribe to share in their glory. When a darker reflection is on one of our number, as Nigerians we immediately and DESPERATELY seek to separate and love to tell ourselves"I'm not a part of it, its them over there". Just as we saw with MEND at the beginning of their kidnapping and bad press, Mutallab after "underpant gate" and the Igbos with this Aba situation. This is what human beings do to eachother when there is no GENUINE bond or national identity. A little tap and it all comes tumbling down. I said in that thread, Mutallab may have been described as Nigerian by the west, but Nigerians saw his Hausa/Muslim heritage as prominant. The same way that they categorize "Nigerian" 419er whos name may be Emeka as an IGBO criminal. Lets stop kidding ourselves here people. We always use tribe to distance ourselves from negatives and claim positives. |

Re: Is Aba A Reflection Of What Biafra Would Have Been? by chyz(m): 1:39pm On Oct 05, 2010 |
I was wondering why this thread continued to grow,now I see why. Look enough of the taslk Biafra is going to be actualized is as simple as that.There is nothing you or i can do about it. My Igbo brothers just continue to ignore the Hating Nation's comments.I've put my ghanaian friends on to nairaland and they now laugh at the Scare-Faced tribe cuz they can't believe how one tribe could be so jealous and envious about another.LOL Discuss our issues and ignore the comments of the Hating Nation. Jisike! I'm out |
Re: Is Aba A Reflection Of What Biafra Would Have Been? by DatNiggaAk(m): 2:25pm On Oct 05, 2010 |
[b]Ibos are a people i have a lot of respect for and admire. at the same time, i also avoid some of them. most of my closest friends are Ibos and people even mistake me for one atimes at the same time, i'm very careful when it comes to running any business with those not close to me. i once went to Bauchi and as beautiful as it was, it looked like a town where people went to work in the morning but refused to come back home at night. the reason was simply that most of the ibo traders no longer invested in the city because of their mutallab tendencies. the biggest supermarket i came across then(3 yrs ago) was at a total filling station. Nigeria needs the Ibos and they equally need Nigeria. giving excuses for the participation of some ibo people in heinous activities such as armed robbery, kidnapping and prostitution is wrong. it is as a result of the society they live in which respects money no matter how it is made. that is why someone would go into such especially when greed is involved. if leaders are forced on the ibos like someone claimed here, then it is your duties as ibos to force such puppet leaders out. i was in owerri and a friend who is a politician there said babangida aka IBB aka Independence Bomb Blast aka The Evil Genius is likely to win the east come 2011 can you imagine that? why would ibos vote for IBB?[/b] |
Re: Is Aba A Reflection Of What Biafra Would Have Been? by excanny: 8:25pm On Oct 05, 2010 |
letonB: Let me guess. When you said 'A people who can use their mother to make money', you were referring to Igbos. I'm interested in this one. Really? So they can do that? You mind telling us how you came about this info? Any newspaper report, or were you personally an eyewitness of such a transaction? I'll like to know. |
Re: Is Aba A Reflection Of What Biafra Would Have Been? by phreakabit(m): 9:22pm On Oct 05, 2010 |
A people who can use their own mother LOL, stop trying too hard to speak queens English, if your father hadn't spent his time and money eating amala and kpomo at Iya muslimats joint at the B/stop, just as his kins men do, whilst your future rotted away at alwaoro primary school then probably you wouldn't be as dumb as you are. At first time assessment i would say, you are as smart as an Intelligent mongoloid, or there about. I am correct abi, honestly tell me the truth? |
