Igboid, very wonderful points.

Let me also add that instead of constructing just a seaport at Obuaku, that a new city should be constructed (Obuaku city or any name that finally gets chosen)

It was the Enugu Coal funds that was used in constructing Port-Harcourt from the scratch.

A far more modern city (possibly the most modern city in Africa) can be constructed around the site of the proposed seaport.

Biafra's gas revenue will make this a painless project. Niggaz need a place to ball, Ighotago

budaatum:


What amuses me is the fact that once we get this Igbo land, we shall then build fences to keep Osu from Nwadiala.

Osu caste system

We are working on it.
In Igboland republic, we will put last nail on the coffin of that ugly part of our history.
And mind you,Osu caste was practiced in about 1/3 of Igboland.
The largest Igbo clan of Ngwa has no Osus. The Aros have no Osus.
The entire Ebonyi know nothing about Osus. The Ndoki and Asa clans have no Osu caste system.
So it's more of a regional than a centralized practice in Igboland.
Nevertheless, we would snuff it out in Alaigbo republic.

You are in the spirit.
It is easier and cheaper to build a world class modern city on a virgin land, than to demolish structures in older cities to upgrade them to world class.
Starting a similar project like Eko Atlantic City in Obuaku area should feature high on republic of Igboland priorities.

I should hope so, because it would be rather pointless to get rid of one oppressor only to then oppress others. It would be as if you'd stopped being like the oppressed Palestinians in Nigeria to become the oppressing Israelites in Biafra.

Personally, I just wish the Igbos could concentrate on making their region the envy of the entire Nigeria, but it is obvious that you can not be destroying Nigeria with one hand, and hope to be building Biafra with the other, which is a great pity indeed.

NWANNE, U ARE JUST TOO SMART.


U JUST POINTED OUT THE WEAKNESS OF THE OSU MATTER.


NARROW IT DOWN AND NULLIFY IT.



IF WE MAKE PEOPLE KNOW THAT IT IS ONLY A LIST OF COMMUNITIES IN IGBO LAND, THEN THE BURDEN SHIFTS TO THOSE COMMUNITIES.



JUST APPLY PRESSSURE ON THEM AND THEY WILL RUBBISH IT.


PLUS, THE YOUNGER GENERATION DONT UNDERSTAND WAT THAT IS.


IT IS THE OLDER GENERATION THAT STILL BELIEVE IN OSU.

Osus are not oppressed.
Just that they find it hard to marry non Osus, because of the fetish belief by non Osus that Osus were dedicated to the gods, so marrying them is like taking from the gods and should come with some misfortunes to anyone who married them.

And like I told you, this culture is only practiced in 1/3 of Igboland in the past, and is already on it's dead throes even in areas of Igboland it was practiced in the past.
Biafra would put a nail on its coffin.

Igboid:


Osus are not oppressed.

Really? I got a guy here telling us Palestinians are not oppressed and black Americans are not oppressed and I bet if we asked him he'd say Igbos are not oppressed neither and you have to move on.

Care to help him with his floundering argument because he seems to be needing it.

Biafra is landlocked
Biafra don't have profitable resources
Y'all fools don't farm. How do you expect to survive? Well, by foolishly thinking south South will go with y'all clowns.

BIAFRA agitation isn't just about oppression or marginalization.
Its more about incompatibility.

Ndiigbo don't see ourselves, our world view our ideology, etc, compatible enough with certain groups in Nigeria as to exist in same country with them.

When a people don't see themselves compatible with another, the logical thing to do is for all involved to hold a discussion and dissolve tfe the union like Czechoslovakia did.
But if one group insist on forcing union on another like Serbs did to ethnic groups in former Yugoslavia, then a violent breakup remains the only solution.

Ndiigbo see the rest of Nigeria as a dead weight to our progress as a people.
Whether Nigerians accept this or not is none of our business, what matters is that it's our conviction and we expect those involved to respect our wishes to be left alone.

The aim of this thread is to convince my fellow Igbos who might habour doubt about our viability as an independent nation outside Nigeria, that they need not entertain such doubts as all available rational forecasts predict that we would be just fine .

It's my concern because you ungrateful lots keep attaching yourselves to we Niger deltans without our consent. This attaché by force will be rebuffed.

I blame Gowon for not finishing what he started,if he did miscreants like you wouldn't be disturbing public space today.

Just open mouth and spill gibberish. Go through this thread and tell me any of the Igbo who gives a hoot about your "Niger Delta" crap. Truth is you just realized we don't give a second ffuvkk about you nor whatever you have....hear it again , WE DONT FFUCKING WANT YOU! Go settle your scores with NK because nobody in this thread is an IPOB. The people who posted on this thread are Pro-Igbo Republic not IPOB members.

Again , we don't need your NIGER DELTA !

However, we will take our Igbo brothers trapped in that your dirty waters with us...enu ani , etche , Obigbo and Egbema. Take Ika and Ukwuani and do whatever you please with the.

Bye felicia!!

Have you ever seen an Igbo man disguise?
We are naturally a very proud people. Our pride in our ability as a group usually choke the life out of non Igbos around us.

Of course I'm Igbo. A damn proud one at that.

What is Midwestern republic? What is Niger Delta republic?

Nwanne! Better be proud of your ethnic group and stop hiding behind meaningless terms.

Why not be campaigning for Bini republic?

Because I'm very convinced that Esans would still want their own independent country away from Binis and their Oba.

Don't even think of Enuani.

Igboid:
Workch:
I usually do not make posts on nairaland politics section but I have to address this charade of Senator Ndume as regards undermining the the contributions of southeast in Nigeria. I’m going to do this with Figures vis-à-vis the figures come north to show that northerners are conning people into staying in Nigeria, which is obviously failing.

Oil revenue and other
In 2017, the NBS released oil revenue figures of all Nigerian oil producing states which totals 32billion USD, assuming that we share the sentiment of subtly dissociating igbos in southsouth from their counterparts in Southeast, IMO and Abia combined accounted for 1.7% of this revenue, 1.7% of 32billion is 544million USD. It means that Imo and Abia brought 544million USD to Nigeria in 2017.

In this same year, southeast states received a total federal allocation of 152.9billion which is 459.1million USD using 333per dollar rate as it was obtainable in 2017.

Imo and Abia alone made 544million USD, this figure indicates that south east actually generated their own federal allocation. This cannot be said about the north’s humongous allocation, they feed from other south southern states


This will help create a picture to help you see who steals from who? Southeast earned every allocation they get, north steals from southsouth.
This is clearly seen as the total revenue generated in 2017, 65% of this was from oil while a substantial remaining Came from Lagos ports and business which igbos also contributed a large stake in terms of Importations of goods and federal taxes. Northerners don’t do importation a lot and they don’t have business paying taxes a lot.

We can hardly see the contribution of the northern states and their people here vis-à-vis the amount they get in term of allocations.


I am not an Igbo guy but it’s totally irrational to think that north is not the parasite here. They never earn whatever they get in Nigeria.

As matter of fact, aside Lagos and maybe ogun state and the oil producing states, other states include all 19northern states are parasites. None of them earn whatever they get.

Besides what's that? " I am not an Igbo guy"

Simple question. What's the name of your ethnic group

For example, I'm a proud Igbo man working for Alaigbo republic.

So Mr Man, what's your ethnic group?

Come on! Your ethnicity can't be that inconsequential that you can't even be proud of it in a faceless forum.

No! I don't want to believe that anyone would be that ashamed of their ethnicity.

So I ask one more time Buddy. What's the name of your ethnic group?

This thread started off discussing some socalled Biafra economic potentials...., then subtly pivoted into a feast of hatred against eastern minorities..., as usual. Folks are are so dramatically worried about how to remove eastern minorities from Biafra more than they do about achieving Biafra...

This uncanny fixation on turning igbo minority neighbors into igbo enemies should worry.. There is absolutely no strategic thinking in this and I'm now starting to suspect the real intentions of the original purveyors of this retrogressive mindset on this thread...

I pray he correct this mistake.
If they want to be left alone, I don't see why he falsely portrayed Igbos as people who can't stand on their own.

Ok.
So we take it your ethnicity is inconsequential.
And until you come out proud to proclaim and accede allegiance to your ethnic group and not hide behind meaningless terms like MIDWESTERN REPUBLIC, I have no business with you.

Bye bye!
