Oronto Douglas Speaks About Lies Told About The South East by DonXavi(m): 11:35pm On Jul 25, 2020
"In 1995, when we were preparing for the National Constitutional Conference under General Abacha our elders in the Niger Delta told us to look out for the support of the Northern & perhaps the Western delegates when proceedings begin.. The understanding was that our South Eastern brothers are always against us. Truly, we got to the Conference and asked for 25% derivation but NO NORTHERN or SOUTH -WESTERN delegate supported us. To our surprise the South East gave us bloc support and when we decide to stage a walkout, they also walked out with us. General Abacha then intervened and gave us the 13% derivation we are enjoying today. It is confusing that what our elders told us was different from the reality. " -Oronto Douglas “Words on marble”

In this same Abacha's confab, are you aware that Chief Dr Alex Ekwueme moved a motion for the creation of 6 geo political zones and the motion was killed?

And South South was part of the proposal.

Now look at the voting pattern that killed the motion.

South South delegates voted 50-50 in favour and against.

South East delegates. 100% in favour of the motion.

South West delegates. 100% against the motion.

Now again. North Central delegates. 50-50 in favour and against. This is in the North oh!

North East and West delegates voted 100% against it respectively.

Wonder in the above voting pattern is that the South South that's supposed to be the ultimate beneficiary could not deliver 100% for something that is entirely to their own good.

I have carefully studied those people and their reasoning pattern and I lost hope in any alliance with them.

Till date, they still make it a point of duty to say that Igbos want them because of their oil and sea. And of course, you are not better than the Igbos with your so called resources.

Oil soup ppl must be gnashing their teeth and cursing whoever invented the internet and social media.
Most of the propaganda they used to peddle against Igbos with their Lagos-Ibadan brown envelope journalism are being punctured everyday.
Now, we don't need newspapers to know who is most intelligent in Nigeria again, d statistics from WAEC, NECO ,JAMB etc are there on Facebook and every social media for everyone to see.

An lgbo woman took the risk of paving way for Goodluck Jonathan to become president when he acting under Yaradua , and she paid with her life . Again the lgbos gave GEJ block votes the two times he contested election because they took them as one . Even during the first Nigerian coup , the lgbos suffered the effects of it even though it was Soldiers from SS that caused it . The lgbos didn't isolate them .

The power of propaganda and psychological war is far reaching than bullets. When you succeed in encapsulating someone's mental faculty then you are left with a zombie. Until that hold is barred, the zombie will always think and walk like one. Let me leave it like that. A word is enough for the wise!

You could have read over the initial comments being emotional as usual.

BTW, why do you guys always claimed some people hate you? Do you love those people in return?
