God bless you . They have suddenly found their voices just because they are protecting their interest. Before the coming of NK and SI who heard their voices? They were busy asking for contract, even Mbaka.

Speak for yourself

As for me, decentralisation and autonomy in various regions should be the appropriate step as resolutions

Please stop reacting to this kind of post. It is meant to disunite Yorubas and Igbos. Those posts are usually submitted by Northerners using all sorts of monikers!

If you don't know Toyin falola then stop talking trash about Nigeria because you know nothing as far as Nigeria is concerned. Back to the matter I think to decentralized the government is a good way to go although that's what north don't want to hear.

But trust me if southern can[b] unite[/b] on this matter there's nothing north can do than to concur, I just don't know why igbo elites are silent over everything they don't support biafra they don't support decentralized where do they belong self?



The keyword here is UNITY. Tightly knit that there won't be room for a Judas. I'm sure the North will get to a breaking point if this happens.

The Igbo elites are scared of what they 'think' they will lose if they speak out in favour of decentralization. They sit where and when they're told and how to sit.

this will not favour the Northerners...who are born to be predators.....they will turn to Somalia in less than 5 years after the devolution of power

Hence ,they will fight dirty to see it not happen.

Yeah... somehow he was not mentioned but he is a part of those agitating for seccesion.

TBH...They don't have to mention his name.

There are millions of "igboho" out there but lack the strength and courage to speak out.

Perhaps, but if his name was not mentioned what is the point in saying it was?

The north can never allow the south to control their resources and seaports.

It's as simple as ABC.

Well restructuring is not a bad idea but expecting the government to just wake up one morning to do that will never happen.

Those calling for restructuring failed to call out their state governors when FG decide local government autonomy and the governors kicked against it, same people kept quiet when JESUN went on strike because they want financial autonomy from the state government.
These are where restructuring should start from till it get to the upper level where the FG won't have a choice.

What about state police, they have all kept quiet about it, they want FG to wake up one day and hand over everything or call for another confab where millions will be spent with nothing to show fort.

Tinubu, Fashola and Osibanjo that clamoured for restructuring before 2015 general election where do they belong now?

The Speaker House of Representatives is from SW yet they can't checkmate the executive arm.

All of them are in the ruling party and are from SW....


This is what every right thinking Nigerian should ask, where is the restructuring they promised us?
They lied to us and they will still try to do it again in 2023 or try to convince us that the people asking for restructuring are trying to break the country which is a blatant lie.

Monogamy:

Agreed, but the north won't allow that, if the south don't demand for secession. The current system favours the north more, thus they would do anything to keep it so. But when the south confront them with secession, the north would be left with the option of settling for true federalism rather than losing it all. Note that different secession movement currently will die naturally once there is true federalism.

When will they get decentralized government? Never under the present political structure of Nigeria.

Elders feeding fat from the present political process of Nigeria must stop to determine for the younger generations.

Youths determine the fate of elders in a saner country.

The real intellectuals are for the division of this country, they know that no future in being together.

You are very correct, If Ighoho stops his action now, those idiots will disappear in the air.

ZZ22:
Whenever there's a call to break this cesspit some foolish group will spring up in the middle of the night to disturb your ears with restructuring, autonomy, devolution and once the call for secession dies down you will never hear from the group again. Fulani herdsmen are killing people as they like and no group has converged to do or say anything but once the people come together to protect themselves thousands of otellectual group will spring immediately to tell you don't do it, don't take laws in to your hand.

You can research more on journalism gimmicks.

You will understand the packaging.

If the headline read Igbo Scholars, monarchs caution........ demands devolution of power
or restructuring, who do you think the paper will use as person being cautioned? Nnamdi KANU of course, being at the forefront of Biafra/Ipob agitation, just to attract buyers, readers & attentions.
All is about marketing strategy in journalism.

Though, I respect your opinion but I think that's the purpose of the headline to achieved.

The only issue I have with your submission is because of Prof. Fálọlá. I don't think Nigeria has any other historian still living in the class of that man. And FYI, he's not eating under Nigerian government. He's a director at University of Texas, Austin. Some of these guys actually know what they're talking about.

Maybe Nigerian journalism. No responsible newspaper will drop names like that. The most they will do is say agitators or something to that effect. They will never mention anyone's names just because they think you were referring to someone.

Useless men with no foresight.

The Yorubaland extends up till Atapame Togo, with yoruba descendants worldwide estimated to number up to 100 million, there is no reason why a Yoruba state should not exist.
If Jews could struggle to have their own country and even evict Palestinians..
Why can't yorubaland exist as a sovereign state for all yorubas?
We have our system of government, we have our institutions, we have our culture, we have our natural allies. No reason the Yoruba should continue to be held down by Nigeria and separated into 3 countries

The time for all of Africa to redraw the sstupid colonial borders created by Europeans is now.. This century it must be done and it will start with the Yoruba and Igbo - Africa's greatest
