Can What's Left Of Nigeria Be Salvaged Without Igbo? by ScamHunter: 6:47pm On Jun 21, 2021
I saw some comments and this got me thinking. What is the prospect of Igbo exit since they seem to be the most determined to exit the country? Also, have you noticed that at the end of the day, that the minorities may ride on Igbo doggedness to freedom? We Igbo mostly want an Igbo ONLY country. With the latest move for Ibom country, do you think that IPOB will drop their Igbo plus minorites Biafra? How will it all play out?

Fulani organisations have been asking for a referendum for Igbos for quite a while.
While I don't expect Buhari to concede to referendum, one thing Buhari and his fellow Fulani terrorists will agree on, is that the Igbos are very formidable, and that by osmosis, they are now infecting other parts of the south with the longing for freedom.

Fulanis never in their dreams, anticipated that Yorubas will start an agitation to break away from Nigeria. Fulanis never anticipated that a Yoruba militia will come into being, thanks to Igboho/Kanu partnership. Once this militia is released into Yoruba forests, they will not be handing any Fulani terrorists to the police. They will be sent to God right there. That is the osmosis I talk about.

Today, Ibibios and Annangs are now asking for an Ibom republic. This destroys the usual isolation attempt that the Fulanis were trying to engineer. Today there are two dots in the east, thus destroying a major plan of the Fulanis.

All these agitations are rightly attributable to the Igbos and IPOB.

Buhari's intelligence also knows that we are all going through a calm before the storm. IPOB's relationship with the Ambazonians, means there is a huge possibility of an invasion force breaking into Nigeria within the next few weeks or months. This talk of dialogue is obviously to help reduce the possibility of such an invasion, by people you have already made your diehard enemies, and who are unlikely to take prisoners, when in action. Buhari now wants to chicken out by introducing this dialogue.

Buhari knows his only way out is to negotiate. Of course we all know IPOB leadership cannot be bribed and they will stick to their points.

But Buhari has lost a golden opportunity to speak with these groups as a father will speak with his children. When he should have acted like a father, he acted like a sworn enemy by declaring a banner-waving organisation, a terrorist group.
Anyway, better late than never.

Furthermore, there are issues of who is Igbo and who is not, considering that some Igbo sub-groups seem not sure where they belong.



Even with the Igbo challenge and resistance of the Janjaweeed, most Nigerian tribes are goners in the face of Fulani onslaught. Most of them ... We did a discourse sometime and found out that Fulani hold just a handful of Nigerian tribes in dread. These are Igbo, Kanuri, Eggon, Langtang and a Mambilla tribe I do not know their name.
In other words, all other Nigeria tribes are sitting ducks waiting to be conquered. That's why the Fulani hatred for Igbo is palpable and they're determined to fight to the death to conquer the unconquerable. Finally, I think they want Igbo out of the way, perhaps, that's why they're mooting exit with 5 states, which is not possible. However, if they concede all Igbo territory to us, I think IPOB should grab the opportunity. We can't be dying for hateful tribes that hate us.

For the avoidance of doubt, Igbo territory is from the Benin kingdom to Tiv land, then we are bounded to the South East by the Ibibio and Annang and SW by the Ijaw, southernmost extreme of Igbo is the Atlantic. With such concession, Igbo should exit and leave Fulani and their buddy supporting tribes.

In this life heh, someone have to be very careful of what to wish for.

Nnamdi Azikwe bluntly rejected the secession clause in Nigeria constitution.. Today, the same clause has been holding his people for raansom...

How about the creation of SS region which was Initiated by Alex Ekwueme and Banjo when they were in prison.. When Ekwueme regained freedom and became VP, he used the opportunity to present the idea to Abacha.. Today, his people have been busy shouting our land , our land.

Nobody is holding Igbos from leaving Nigeria.. We have advised you people on different things to do.

If you can not lobby your reps and senators to present the secession bill in the house for discussion, then you can recall all SE political holders from Senators to house of reps member, to ministers. Oil money monthly allocation, be ready to say good bye to it, any Igbo that are not ready to relocate back to
SE would be treated as a foreigner until then, whatever you guys do can only be regarded as drama

The Nigerian constitution in use today was crafted in 1999, not 1960, so it's irrelevant, whether Zik agreed to having a succession clause or not. That said, Zik would have required a consensus for the clause to not be included, which means, all of the founding fathers agreed not to have it. The only reason why you're emphasizing Zik is because of the current Biafra movement.

The SS region is a political designation, with the sole purpose of giving the ethnic groups in that region a voice and political power. How can anyone be against that?

You guys and your oil money. Most of Nigeria's revenue is generated internally now, not from oil. Moreover, the Igbo states are private sector led, so leaving Nigeria wouldn't have as much of an impact on Igboland, as it would if Yorubaland was to break free, it being primarily a public sector led economy.

Biafra, like Ghana, Ivory Coast and Benin will be an ECOWAS country. If you guys want to confiscate businesses and properties belonging to Igbo people, simply because they're Igbo, then go ahead. But the ramifications will be catastrophic for your economy, not because of the value these businesses add to your economy, but because of how it will be perceived by the global community.

You people? We're all Nigerian, you dummy.

And if nobody was holding Igbo's back, Igbo people would have left Nigeria years ago. Even Sanusi Lamido Aminu Sanusi was honest enough to admit that the other groups have been forcing Igbo people to remain in Nigeria since the war.
