@Post I am strongly in support of regionalism and a weaker center. If Nigeia had gravitated towards regionalism year ago, we would not be in this mess we are in today as a nation. 1 Like |

in total support of it......maybe we will start to show ourselves a little respect, especially those ijaws that feel like they can open their mouth whenever because of the oil their father didn't put there. 1 Like |

Absolutely we all know regionalism is key to our development... But our useless lawmakers are just paying lip service to it..becos dat way d centre becomes less attractive and less bribes for dem from d numerous probes. Less bribes to inflate ministry budget...less access to money for dem on d whole. Everybody is talking true federalism both Jonathan n lawmakers but nobody is initiating it. Who is fooling who. |

Waiting for the entity called Nigeria to work with this system of government, means waiting for forever to come. We are already torn within ethnic and religious boundaries, this natural separation should serve as basis for our regional system of government. Having a strong center and a weak appendages will still promulgate corruption and laziness. Its about time the various regions think on how to survive without oil |

Fully supported but I have a challenge for the name given to the middle belt area. Perhaps a better name for the middle belt would suffice. |

Chei...see ibo moraphukin thieves....grouping the SS as BIAFRA....like the south southerners won't want the full control of the oil in their own region. 2 Likes |

If una like support statism, the mindset of people is just the problem.None of this will work, anarchy prevails even from the state levels. What we will see after this will still be people like the sarakis popping up from all this region and people stealing more to hang to power. Have we ever sat down and think how much money has gone through governors like Ibori, alams ,Odili ,Akpabio and the rate of development that have been achived in this states. For me I will see more tribalism, oil theft, and suffering |

While Biafra is a good name, the states that makes up the region will have to come up with acceptable name for all. I don't think a Delta guy want to be call Biafra. What is your new name suggestion? |

To my own mind, no system of governance or structural Administration is good enough for Nigeria until we all sit down to actually discuss in a no holds barred fashion the concept of our pax Nigeriana. This becomes critical in that a situation whereby the same set of characters parade our political, economical and socio cultural landscape with scant regard for our collective welfare and happiness. If at the end of the talk session, we produce and fashion out, our collective dream and asipration in terms of the a well spelt out modus operandi of governance, then and only then we can forge ahead to the promise land without fear of betrayal, lack of trust and political perfidy |

What has Biafra got to do with the Niger Delta States? Stop associating yourselves all in the interest of oil deposit in the Niger Delta. |

This is not new from Anyaoku. He has been calling for this for so long but the system is unfavourable to Aso Rock and National Assembly so that won't accept it. |
Re: Anyaoku Advocates Return To Regionalism by Aladinn(m): 1:40am On Jun 30, 2012 |
Regionalism? *ponders deep in thought.* In any region where the likes of Alams, Ibori, Orji, Obasanjo and cronies are leaders, there can never be development. Until we address our corrupt mindsets, no economic or political ideology will work. 1 Like |

Of course Biafra wants the South South. LOL!!!! Bloody thief-thief. Nigeria can't return to regionalism unless it figures out what to do with oil revenues. The only thing feeding the Federal Government is oil $$$$... the federal government isn't going anywhere or getting any weaker until somebody snatches away the feeding bottle. |

Re: Anyaoku Advocates Return To Regionalism by kpokute: 2:12am On Jun 30, 2012 |
Without doubt, Regionalism is the key to our development, having enjoyed it in the past, this is because it made the centre less attractive, thus gave no room for selfish sectional politicking and the attendant corruption. Unfortunately, our legislators are today pre-occupied with contracts and re-elections, so they are not ready to give due attention to critical but important issues like the one Distinquished Chief Emeka Anyaoku is advocating. Let's keep watching this movie called Nigeria and the Characters called Politician! |

GboyegaD: Fully supported but I have a challenge for the name given to the middle belt area. Perhaps a better name for the middle belt would suffice. The rationale is for the Middle belt which has the capital in it to still retain the country's identity - Nigeria. Do you want the name(Nigeria) to be completely eradicated? |

Nigeria is too big for one man especialy a civilian to handle. |
