Ok boss

Razgas:
my point is...let's keep information on this topic accurate. It might be hard but it helps our cause.
For instance you said our GDP is 49 billion. If our population is 30 million as you also said, then how's our per capita GNI 3000?
Little issues like this are being observed by people

AfricanColumbus:


You didn't read the details properly. If it doubles, check it against a population of 30 million.

You quickly react without crosschecking.

Razgas:
but why would you talk about it doubling? Do countries double their GDP over a few years? Except a country experiencing an economic miracle. If it doubles, would our population still be static?
These are my points. I believe they are simple and straightforward

Wahabfuture:
You mean Ewedu your country

Saltinny:



Both of them are Intellectual foolish
Allow them to continue fooling themselves, we are waiting for them to come implement it, 🤣🤣🤣

AfricanColumbus:



You said the GNI was wrong before


Why won't the GDP double? The GDP of the current Southeast states cannot remain at 49 billion if it becomes a country. There would be local production immediately. There will be movement of businesses, industries etc to the Southeast.

Don't you realise most of the Southeast economy is actually outside the Southeast? Many of these businesses will move back. How can the Southeast economy remain static at the declaration of the region as a country of its own? That's impossible.

I keep telling people If Igbos leave, Nigeria will never remain the same again, there's no much difference between Yorubas and core North

spearman:
Hmmm... that Ibo passport... eh.
E get why.
Ibos can never leave Nigeria voluntarily. That is why they draw a crazy and impossible map of Biafra with Niger Delta hallucination.
Las las, Ibos will have to be expelled from Nigeria. Even at that they will still refuse to go. No shame. No pride. No confidence.

Razgas:
it would grow I agree. But doubling is another matter. Anyway let's leave it. Most of the other stuff in your post I agree...my issue is just the population.
We neither need nor have too much population

deji17:
Yes!

AfricanColumbus:



Can the Southeast survive on its own?

DomPerignon:



See my post above.

You still believe you will get access to Nigerian markets and Forex flow coupled with federal subvention.

Remove all these first and pounder how your Biafra will look like.

DomPerignon:
When the SE is expelled do you think they can sustain any of the HDI you mentioned ?

For one, they won't be able to sustain their import based business model as the Biafran central bank will not have Forex flows to support such imports. Then when you consider that they won't have access to Nigerian market this spells doom for their business model.

What of food imports from Nigeria?

Biafra will have to pay in either naira or dollars. Nigeria will not accept useless Biafran fiat currency.

What of infrastructure ? Most of the gains they enjoy from this is either through direct federal govt funded projects or in the case of state projects, subventions from the federal govt.

The only Forex flow into Biafra will be from diaspora remmitance and it will be looted and the Biafran currency devalued and debased to hide this .

Biafra will be a shit hole and descend to unimaginable chaos, anarchy and degradation .

The UN food agency as well as other relief groups will be the major source of food and medicine in Biafra.

AfricanColumbus:



The HDI will increase if the educated Southeast population in other regions leave to Biafra.

The FG does not import on behalf of the Southeast businesses. The Southeast busineses have enough forex for their businesses.

This is not a point. There are means of currency exchange everywhere.

The FG has little infrastructural investment in the Southeast.

Businesses get forex remittance from abroad directly without government involvement.

DomPerignon:



You are dreaming.

You think FG will continue subsidizing your region ?


All those FG and state projects that were built with loans, you think FG will continue paying for them ?

You don't even know why so many Nigerians who hate your ass are now clamouring for your Biafra .

You want to leave your fellow Igbos to those evil people? there are Igbos in 13 state of Nigeria, let's return 1% Igalas in Anambra and my state Enugu, they are not up to more than 1 village in Enugu state.
