Kobojunkie:

WOW . . . . This is what I mean by the lack of critical thinking skills. Rather than actually analyzing the current, you are still stuck in the loop of the past. How does one change the future that way? I am not certain if you are a Christian but please consult your pastor on what God says of the past and what we need to do with it.  

Education is an ONGOING process. Even the most college educated still has nothing if he does not understand his current surroundings and how to change it. He has to constantly educate himself so he can stay up to date on how to better his life. We just watched and saw how the young of Egypt, were able to set aside their past squabbles, educated themselves on their rights as individuals and as Egyptians -- then took to the streets to demand changes for themselves.

Critical thinking skills are lacking with majority of Nigerians . . . that is why people make excuses for the thieves-in-power and do not stand up for their right. Some do not even take the time to learn what their right is and if it is they to serve the politicians or the politicians to server them. How can you help these people? Simple -- by EDUCATING them on their rights, their place in government, and the need for them to demand change if they truly want change to the status quo.

If this newly found fantasy of yours called “critical thinking” clarifies goals, examines assumptions, understands hidden values, evaluates evidence, accomplishes actions and assesses conclusion, I say Nigerians, especially Biafrans in our mist, are centrally committed to “critical thinking” since January 15, 1966.

@kobo We have pretended for too long that there are no differences between the peoples of Nigeria. The hard fact which we must honestly accept as of paramount importance in the Nigerian experience especially for the future is that we are different peoples brought together by recent accidents of history. To pretend otherwise will be folly."igbos/biafrans can lift our economy to a great mighty height, nigerian govt knows that it will be better for eastern- region to have their own country. That way we can control our borders people will have peace same with hausa and yoruba it will be easier now that we understand each other values and with our great capabilities,

matazzmagi:

Biafra cannot be discussed in a day. The issue is that it becomes a distraction when you seem to think you can reduce Biafra to shrink . By so doing you want to down play Biafra's exisence. You are not neutral as you claim because you have a strong one-sided opinion on anything about Biafra,gov peter obi is under A.P.G.A. and the party have a lot of (massob) members which you don't no, eastern region our politicians are still under nigerian govt control from abuja federal govt  to local govt.I suggest that you change your views to greater mind and do not stick on baseless points you are trying to make it will not take you far,innocent blood wasted  for  hate-tribalism just  because of ONE NIGERIA!!!!

^^Biafra was indeed an example of what an African nation could become if left alone. We had our dreams and lived them out. We had one of the best functioning government even when in war. Nigeria has been without wars for decades but they still rank bottom of the world in every reasonable endeavor.Every non-igbo person loves to hate the igbos but still won't let them go.chime and fashola and amaechi are they the only governors in nigeria?How abaout other states in nigeria?Can you say the same thing abaout their governors,

[b]Nigeria will never move forward till Nigerians accept the futility of forcing the co-existence of different nations in one ungovernable entity called Nigeria. Of what use is it to blindfold yourselves just because you don't want to see and believe how complicated and anti-developmental this British creation is, in the name of unreasonable agitation for "One Nigeria"?
We keep fighting against each other politically, socially, religiously and economically. Yet we expect some sort of magic to happen for Nigerian ethnic groups to hug themselves and move the country forward. Is it not glaring that for 50 years Nigerians have concentrated on fighting and trying to out do each other, than coming together to lift the country? People fail to see beyond their noses. We can make good use of this constant disunity among Nigerian ethnic groups by molding a new political atmosphere that will turn the hatred and strife to competition among the ethnic groups. Regional politics was more effective than this senseless unity in diversity that Nigeria is pretending to practice.
One thing that the agitators of "One Nigeria" does not understand is that a crumbling house can only be stopped from crumbling if either a new one is built, or it is pulled down by the owner. If the owner of the house foolishly ties his eyes to pretend that his house is not crumbling, then the house will crumble on him while his eyes is tied.
Quit pretending. Even If Nigeria remains this way in 100 years time, We will never ever move forward. In fact we are just 30 years behind developed nations now. By 100 years time, we will be 70 years behind the developed world.

No. If Nigeria is left this way for a period of 100 yrs, one of the major groups would have conlonised the country and then it would progress.

You wouldn't happen to have Yorubas in mind, would you?

Anybody trying to win an argument with kobojunkie is toying with an advanced case of schizophrenia and mental anachronism.
Be warned.
