No European country ever extradites its own citizen to a country with bad human rights record such as Nigeria, it is not done. Simon Ekpa is a Finnish citizen

Even if for some incredible reason, Finland agrees to send Simon Ekpa to Nigeria, Simon Ekpa, being a Lawyer, will simply approach the European Court Of Justice(ECJ) and tell them that Nigeria with bad human rights record will violate his fundamental human rights, and the ECJ is most likely to agree, which will end any repatriation
thank you Gidgiddy

Nobody is moving on except the SW that have no single thing to export to the region or any other region..

The north are affected as their produce cannot go to the east or transported to the SS...

SW has the largest market so far where other regions come to trade. They are like trade zone

The government of Finland won't extradite him cos there's no extradition treaty between our two countries. What the FG needs to do is to escalate the war against his foot soldiers in the east and of course sentencing Nnamdi Kanu to death. Buhari made the mistake by not ending this on Kenyan soil

Buhari is and remained a Dullard , something that should have been made to look like an Accident on Kenyan soil , with no traces .

Make dem no try am. E get why I talk so. If Simon is extradited, his supporters will also start committing terrorist acts in SE to blackmail the FG and then his people will start begging that he also be released like they're asking for Kanu. And the cycle will continue. This is a family matter that Ndigbo knows how to resolve if they really want to. My two cents.

O to zeh.

FG should not extradite him unless Igbo leaders write and swear to an undertaking not to beg for his release when jailed here. The Igbo political elite are culpable! We saw it all during the last election and how they pampered same terrorist group after carrying out a terrorist attack on Lagos in 2020.

They are crying out now because they realise that the rest of Nigeria is moving on and no send them. They are not crying out of altruism and patriotism. If they are, they should start with condemning the destruction the terrorist group carried out in Lagos state in 2020.
Senseless post by fake free stuffer as usual. So na only Igbos participate in end SARS protest in Lagos. Keep on yarning dust while advertising your fake free stuff.

That's the point.

Can you imagine what will happen when you be come independent?

You will be at the mercy of other regions as you have no export.

You will become like typical Nigeria where they export nothing.

This is why SW is the least region that want to break away, yet they are greedy.

Your elders Afenifere knew this and supported other candidates...but you young folks understood nothing.

Thank you.

This is how normal human should reflect on issues to resolve them without fighting and killings.

Now before this things escalate, many groups in the region have stated that the region is marginalised since after the civil war...even when the war ended with ...no victor and no vanquished to appease everyone.

But this has not been the case as the region has continuously been marginalised.

The region though a dot nation, according to some people has the worse federal roads in Nigeria and as well the highest number of security personnel collecting bribe.

This now came to a head when Fulani herdsmen were killing in hundreds with no single arrest made.

The groups now became embolden to ask for autonomy...they started raising flags and were killed by agents of government..

So that is the short history of the root causes.

The leaders in region have tried to solve the issue by accepting these challenges and that they will discuss with the FG in tackling those issues raised, but as have been seen not a single thing was done.

Shehu Yardaua was one of the best leaders Nigeria have had. He would have met with he team before operation python dance and try and assure them, and at least solve one or two of their issues...but unarmed civilians were shot by the last government and the issues have escalated to the worse.

Below is the meeting between Kanu and the governors of the region..

The next picture is with the senators..
I read through your post, one key thing you emphasize about the root cause of Igbo agitation is marginalisation of the region. Please which region is not marginalised in this country? all the six states in the south south produced 80% oil the country is living on today. Tell me anything the country has done for the people of the south south. Show me any supper highway road in that region, in stead it is devastation of their eco system without any commensurate rewards, yet they are not taking to arms. The entitlement mentality of the Igbos is simply what is giving them the impression that they are being marginalised. Every region in this country is marginalised in one way or the other.

This country was founded on a tripod.

The north and SW has more FG investment than other regions.

They have also seen more power than other regions.

The security points from Lagos to Owerri is by far more than you can get fro a longer distance from Lagos to Maiduguri.

Most people, from outside of the region have attested to the marginalisation of the region.

I have never seen where the senate rose to condemn the killing of Christians in Plateau and Benue State.

I thought they said the sit-at-home is not affecting Nigeria.

Useless criminals. Chasing shadow. What will you tell the finish government that Simon Ekpa did? That he ordered sit at home and people are obeying him.

Bunch of criminals.

You guys are finding it difficult to Understand that lgbo people are not like any other tribe in Nigeria. You cannot subdue an Igbo man. Not possible.

Go and ask The British people that colonized Nigeria. Igbos are dangerously stubborn. You cannot cow them. Know this and Nigeria will have peace

Chest beating as usual even at their own peril... what is so special about them? May be just self sabotage and worship of money, what else??

How dumb and stupid can those who are supposed to represent the people be? On what basis is the Senate asking the Fulani Government of Nigeria to extradite Mazi Simon Ekpa? As far as Finland is concerned, Mr. Ekpa has NOT committed any crime. Only in the Zoo is an act of civil disobedience considered a crime. The rest of the international community does NOT see anything wrong with a people agitating to be FREE from tyranny. So, the Senate can call on the Finnish government to extradite Mr. Ekpa from dawn to dusk, nothing is going to happen. They are just wasting their time. They should be spending their time trying to curtail the menace of the Fulani terrorists who are rampaging and sacking communities in southern Kaduna, Nasarawa, Benue, and Plateau states. What a bunch of fools with mixed priorities!

You see the reason why you're not FG. They should remove police, army and other security agencies because of some stupid sets of people.
Creamypie:
If I be f.g, I will wash my hands of south east, remove all barracks and stylishly army formations, same with police, then watch how most of the remaining easterners(Igbo) relocate to delta, and surrounding south states. Coward easterners, protesting sealing of shops by government for not opening on Mondays, but hiding in their toilets on Mondays, when Ekpa, orders sit at home, for fear of being killed if they go outside compound.same Ekpa they clapped for and hailed when his u.g.m killed police and defaulting civilians.spits.... See how they are rushing down to asaba and other parts of southern Nigeria with past 4 years

How does sit at home affect the FG?

It is just that nobody would tolerated foolishness in their own backyard.

Sit at home is igbo terrorising igbo with the support of the igbo like you... The FG is probably trying to save the igbo man from himself!

Very foolish way of reasoning... drink poison in the hope that your enemy would die from it.
