I'm not sure about others, but I know that if Biafra doesn't happen while you are alive, it will DEFINITELY happen over your dead body.

When a people agree strongly, their 'Chi' will also reluctantly agree.

Amen.

Not everyone feels like a slave, it's relative... elections will come, people will have to vote for the right people. Some are enjoying in Nigeria, if you feel you are a slave, it's personal. Am talking of insecurity, I don't feel like a slave. Life is relative, find your way...my issue is with insecurity, don't know about the slave you are...are you being forced to do what you don't want to...are you being subjected to hard labour, you might be suffering due to your poverty, but stop calling yourself a slave, or you should ask your grandfather the meaning of slavery. Nobody can help another out of poverty in this capitalist world, it's starts with your mind... though the government can create more infrastructure and power. I am not a slave, you might be...sorry. 2023, vote well, so you leave your slave status.

Wow ! This is unbelievable ! Coming out from someone that resides in the poverty capital of the world -Third most terrorized nation on earth- Where there is no accountability -Twitter ban -No freedom of speech-Im a US Military soldier -So dont worry about me I got big bxxxs -To take a knee ! I take a bow !! In fela s voice (SUFFERING AND SMILING) YOUR ALREADY IN MENTAL CHAINS!! WAKE UP.
Nigeria has overtaken India as the country with the largest number of people living in extreme poverty, with an estimated 87 million Nigerians, or around half of the country's population, thought to be living on less than $1.90 a day.

The findings, based on a projection by the World Poverty Clock and compiled by Brookings Institute, show that more than 643 million people across the world live in extreme poverty, with Africans accounting for about two-thirds of the total number.

In Nigeria, as with other countries on the continent, that figure is projected to rise. "By the end of 2018 in Africa as a whole, there will probably be about 3.2 million more people living in extreme poverty than there are today," theNigeria has struggled to translate its resource wealth into rising living standards.

A slump in oil prices and a sharp fall in oil production saw the country's economy slide into recession in 2016.A recent rise in oil prices has helped to spur the country's economic recovery. Addressing the situation in March this year, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) said that although growth was again beginning to rise, "more needs to be done to reduce unemployment and address poverty."

But while the numbers of Nigerians falling into extreme poverty grows by roughly six people every minute, poverty in India continues to decrease.

At present, an estimated 5.3% of Indians or 71.5 million people, live below the poverty line.

Confined to Africa
The researchers note that 14 out of 18 countries where poverty is rising are in Africa, adding that if current rates persist, 90% of the world's poorest will be living on the continent by 2030.

Bangladesh and Indonesia are the only other non-African nations to feature among the list of 10 worst affected countries, with an estimated 17 million and 14.2 million people living in extreme poverty, respectively.Confined to Africa

Mozambique, with 17.8 million people; Kenya, with 14.7 million people; and Uganda, with 14.2 million.

Countries falling behind
Data compiled by the World Poverty Clock was drawn from both household surveys and new projections on country economic growth from the International Monetary Funds' World Economic Outlook.million people escape extreme poverty, owing in part to the introduction of internationally agreed UN Sustainable Development Goals, intended to "end poverty" by 2030.

"The task of ending extreme poverty by 2030 is becoming inexorably harder because we are running out of time. We should celebrate our achievements, but increasingly sound the alarm that not enough is being done, especially in Africa,"

Global Terrorism Index 2020: The ten countries most impacted by terrorism
The 2020 Global Terrorism Index is now available. Download the 2020 Global Terrorism Index here.

Five of the ten countries are classified as being in a state of war: Afghanistan, Nigeria, Syria, Somalia and Yemen. The remaining five were involved in minor conflicts.

Other specific drivers of terrorism among these ten countries include prolonged insurgencies in Afghanistan, Nigeria and Somalia, exacerbated tensions between splinter terror groups and national governments in Yemen, and the shifting activity of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) in Iraq and Syria.

10. The Philippines
Terrorism deaths in the Philippines declined for the second consecutive year in 2019, to 284 deaths. Terror-related incidents also decreased by 18 per cent from 424 in 2018 to 348 in 2019. Despite a slight reduction in terrorist activity, the Philippines remains the only Southeast Asian country to be ranked in the ten countries most impacted by terrorism. The communist New People’s Army (NPA) was the most active terrorist organisation in the Philippines and was responsible over 35 per cent of deaths and 38 per cent of terror-related incidents in 2019, at 98 and 132 respectively.

9. Democratic Republic of the Congo
The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) recorded a resurgence of terrorist activity in 2019 after a fall in deaths the previous year. Deaths from terrorism increased by 36 per cent to 559 deaths in 2019, compared to 410 in 2018. Terror-related incidents also rose from 135 in 2018 to 213 in 2019, marking a 58 per cent increase. This increase in terrorist activity was driven by renewed action from the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) and community militias known as Mayi Mayi groups, as well as the emergence of four new militias.

8. India
There were 558 terrorist attacks and 277 deaths from terrorism recorded in India in 2019. This marks a fall in both deaths and attacks of over 20 per cent since 2018. Compared to other countries amongst the ten most impacted, India faces a wider range of terrorist groups, with Islamist, communist, and separatist groups active across the country. Maoists, the Communist Party of India (Maoist) and Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) were responsible for over two thirds of the total deaths and almost half of the total attacks. However, India has the lowest number of terrorism deaths among the ten countries most affected by terrorism, and the lowest lethality rate of attacks.

7. Pakistan
In 2019, Pakistan recorded its lowest number of terror-related deaths since 2006, declining by 45 per cent from 543 in 2018 to 300 in 2019. Terrorist activity has continued to decline steadily since peaking in 2013 with the number of deaths and incidents falling by 87 and 86 per cent, respectively. Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) was the deadliest terror group in 2019, overtaking the Khorasan Chapter of the Islamic State. TTP was responsible for 73 terror-related deaths in 2019, followed by Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ) and Hizb-ul-Ahrar (HuA) who were responsible for 21 and 20 deaths, respectively. Collectively, the three deadliest groups accounted for 38 per cent of terror-related deaths in 2019.

6. Yemen
Deaths from terrorism in Yemen rose to 555 in 2019, a 31 per cent increase from 2018. Yemen also experienced a 67 per cent increase in total terrorist attacks, driven primarily by an increase in violence by Ansar Allah. Ansar Allah was the deadliest terror group in Yemen for the fourth consecutive year, accounting for 75 per cent of deaths from terrorism. However, Al-Qa’ida in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) also remains in active conflict in the region.

5. Somalia
In 2019, terrorism deaths in Somalia fell to their lowest level since 2013, declining by 11.9 per cent to 569 deaths when compared to the prior year. Terror-related incidents also fell by 16 per cent to 239 reported attacks in 2019. Al-Shabaab was responsible for 88 per cent of all deaths in 2019, which resulted in 503 fatalities. Jabha East Africa was the only other active terror group in Somalia, claiming responsibility for 12 deaths in 2019. The group pledged allegiance to ISIL in 2016 and since then has launched small-scale attacks causing 63 fatalities.

4. Syria
Following the de-escalation of conflict in Syria, deaths from terrorism decreased by 44 per cent to 517 in 2019. Despite this decline in deaths from terrorism, terror-related incidents increased by 36 per cent in 2019. This increase in terrorist activity was primarily driven by an increase in attacks by the three deadliest groups in Syria: ISIL, the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) and Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS). Collectively, these three groups accounted for 74 per cent of terror-related deaths in 2019. However, ISIL remained the deadliest terrorist group in Syria for the sixth consecutive year.

3. Nigeria
Nigeria is the third country most impacted by terrorism. Yet, total deaths from terrorism in Nigeria fell to 1,245 in 2019, a 39 per cent decrease from the prior year. Terror-related incidents also fell by 27 per cent, marking the lowest level of terrorist violence in Nigeria since 2011. Boko Haram, Nigeria’s deadliest terrorist group, recorded an increase in terrorist activity mainly targeted at civilians by 25 per cent from the prior year. Additionally, Fulani extremists were responsible for 26 per cent of terror-related deaths in Nigeria at 325 fatalities.

2. Iraq
Iraq maintained its position as the second most impacted country by terrorism. However, the country recorded a reduction in terror-related deaths for the third consecutive year in 2019, with less than a thousand deaths recorded for the first time since the US invasion in 2003. The number of deaths from terrorism decreased from 1,054 in 2018 to 564 in 2019, a 46 per cent decrease. However, terrorist activity in Iraq continues to be dominated by ISIL, with the group accounting for 66 per cent of all deaths in 2019

1. Afghanistan
Despite a decline in terrorist deaths from 2018 to 2019, Afghanistan remains the country most impacted by terrorism for the second consecutive year. Afghanistan accounted for 41 per cent of deaths from terrorism globally, with the Taliban being responsible for 87 per cent of these fatalities. During 2019, deaths from terrorism declined by 22 per cent, falling to 5,725. While this reduction provides some optimism, it is the second highest number of deaths recorded from terrorism in Afghanistan since the 2001 US-led invasion. The Taliban remains the most active terrorist group in Afghanistan, however, the Khorasan Chapter of the Islamic State, the ISIL-affiliate active in Afghanistan, was the second deadliest terror group in the country.
UN Should Declare Nigeria As Protectorates To Stop Bandits ‘Slave Trade’ With Schoolchildren – Soyinka
“We are calling on the United Nations to intervene and stop this slave trade; to live up to its noble intentions, declarations and rescue these children and put a stop to this act. If Nigeria continues to stand on her sovereignty, I leave this to the experts, I am talking as a layman, I think the protocols of the UN enable the organisation to declare sections of this country under the UN. If the government has failed to protect its own people and failed to fulfil its responsibility under protocols it’s a signatory to, the UN has a right and responsibility to declare those zones UN protectorates. We don’t want what we are undergoing now to become the new normal peculiar to the Nigerian nation.’’

You seem to be one of the sad stories, of a wealthy man living in filt ,enjoying the misery of the majority.
Your missing the point.Blind like a bath.

Foolish man. Agba iya. Someone who couldn't govern his own family, and poignantly described as an economic illeterate. This is clearly one of the vultures that have eaten, and continue to eat, Nigeria to its bone marrow.

Listen Segun, USSR, both in terms of land mass and population, outstripped Nigeria. It disintegrated, irredeemably. Diligent and intelligent students of history know that empires had risen and fallen, they're rising and falling as I type this, and continue to rise and fall. As such, Nigeria, as we know it, would cease to exist one day. It's no brainer.

It's not up to him to decide for the new generation of Nigerians on what to do with Nigeria since he's not going to be living for so long. He (himself) recently said he doesn't want to see another coronation of a Warri king, meaning he already know his time is almost up on planet earth.

Nigeria may have worked for his generation but it's no longer working for the new generation. Something has to be done because Nigeria is damaged and we can't continue living this way. Decisions are made based on circumstance.
I have read a lot of your write ups.

I have a question. How will northern Nigeria survive if they break away and no longer have access to the south resources, with the way the world is now?

I want your perspective on this.

All you have to do is look at countries like Chad and Niger which are their closest neighbors. But, of course, they can create something better.

Remember they've been that way since creation until 1914.
