So you will depend on Ijaw for gas that will power millions of homes in Yoruba land

Depend ? Is it free
We are 55m Yorubas Ijaw will die to sell to us if they say no we buy from Ghana or Angola lol
or look outside Africa

post=89668353:
I haven't seen Yorubas discussing how they will access gas to power their region after post Nigeria era, same people demanding for Oduduwa republic, but they are more concerned about Igbos is it how you guys going to live in your country Or are you guys hoping on Ijaw gas second Benin republic loading

Gas that can be bought do you know how close delta is to Lagos by sea and land
Sorry you don’t have access to sea you don’t understand lol

post=89668460:
I guess you don't understand the meaning of sovereign nation, Biafra can only be landlock to your minds not Igbos, when the time comes we will prove to you guys Igbo land isn't landlock and doesn't end in present Southeast, let continue enjoying one Nigeria, na all oflows us go dey feel m, na una still go dey shout go back to your region, as we are milking you guys, till then we go know who go remain in Nigeria

Well if Niger delta decides to join thrn Biafra won’t be Landlocked and with a 40m Igbo population the tribes might see an opportunity to make money
Develop a strong military to deter you from any thoughts of invasion
Meaning the success of Biafra is based on non igbos joining Biafra
Chai

Why are you scared of Igbos, international law is not Nigeria supreme Court that can be manipulate to suit your people. When the time comes more will be reveal.

I’m not scared of igbos
Left to me I want to see you out of the country but your leaders are to scared to table the matter

post=89668277:
How?

I don’t have time to argue
Why do you think you lost the war
Was it not sea blockade when SS closed shipping
If you have had direct access to the sea like yorubas and the southern tribes it would have been ineffective remember they had to airlift your supplies
Anyways Kanu has made you believe what you want time hear
Continue believing his pop
First was nothing like SS
Lagos is no mans land
SE is not land locked

Continue the tissue of lie

MetaPhysical:
Lets focus abeg. Dont tunlrn this to Lagos issue.

The crux of the matter is, Ibo has no access to coast. Try anything and have Ijaw demolish your villages on the Abia border.

Igbo wants to change the definition of land locked loool

post=89668085:
Lagos port was built by Colonial masters, not Yorubas, Lagos port became a major slave port in the late 1700s and into the 1850s. Much of the human trafficking which occurred there was nominally illegal, and records from this time and place are not comprehensive. According to the Trans-Atlantic Slave Voyage Database, 308,800 were sold across the Atlantic from Lagos in 1776–1850. British and French traders did a large share of this business until 1807, when they were replaced by Portuguese and Spanish. By 1826–1850 the British Royal Navy was intervening significantly with Lagos slave exports.

Continue deceiving yourself
Lol

MetaPhysical:
I listed for you wharves that were built and operated successfully for cargo ahead of British seizing Lagos.

Trade with Yoruba hinterland and up country to Hausaland were facilitated by Lagos wharves. Ijebus were the toll keepers on the rivers and no one dared trade with Lagos without first paying Ijebu. Egbas were the middlemen that break bulk at the ports and retail to the interior. Sea and trade monopolies is what led to wars between Ijebu and Egba.

When Beecroft went to the palace his ship berthed at the Lagos wharf, from where he was taken to Palace.

Activities of road and bridge expansion took away remnants of the landmarks.

Lagos, Iddo and Palma wharves, independently built by Yoruba.

British expanded Lagos wharf and then built Apapa port.

Apapa port itself was a partnership. Anything and everything built or erected in Lagos by British was a partnership with the King and Chiefs of Lagos.

The treaty of 1851 is explicit on this partnership.

A lot of the poto poto osus don’t even know yoruba history anyways they remain a landlocked region
Let them deal with that
Their Ijaw masters will tax the living day light out of them and will arm themselves with enough weaponry to deter any form of igbo aggression

post=89667845:
I asked for Port solely developed by state or any tribe in Nigeria that is functioning with FG, that's is the argument, and he is posting trash

Are you not aware Lagos colony was separate so effectively Lagos built its port itself and who were the habitants of Lagos then ? No be until later igbos see big city Lagos after Samuel Ajayi gave you your first Igbo bible

post=89667816:
Non if the ports was constructed by Lagos state or Yoruba people

Did you read the post you posted yourself smh

Catholics and Anglican division again loooool

MetaPhysical:
If you be me sef go be Lagos1stson.

Dont provoke me to open Lagos history here abeg. There are things in Lagos you migrants dont know, and we dont want you to.

Here is Iddo Wharf. In fact Lagos was nicknamed "Liverpool of West Africa".

Can you see the wharf?

I trust

This author is clever by half
South east is land locked but they can access the sea via negotiations with region with ocean access
Or outrightly conquer the region with military force

No amount of international laws can make se not be land locked

princdebola201:
that was in the Era of Alimi son. That practice has been stop by successive emirs. Sultan of sokoto plays no role in selecting new emirs. It is the ruling house of ilorin that installs Emir and they re yoruba

Debola are you refusing to accept the truth
How will you say a sultan of a caliphate won’t play a role in appointing his emirs loool

princdebola201:
captured? Was there any war in ilorin?

What they did was place coup which is another way to conquer
The war they brought upon Yorubas they were defeated and humilited by Ibadan and Ekiti army
They are all their horses as meat

Also Islam was used as a tool to subjugate the Ilorin people im a Muslim but a very liberal one

Dreason:
do you know what the call map, go check it,
Eastern region it a political stuff kid, what is wrong with you?
you still didnt tell me how the captured anioma bitter afonja fulani slaves

Point is both of them are under the same subjugation due to historical actions

Dreason:
guy buy sense. anioma is a local govt area in one of the niger dalta state, it a different thing. the same way they are yorubas outside nigerian map. have you ever heard abt delta igbo? buy sense pls.

It was because they were under Benin subjugation that’s why they were never part of Eastern region in the first place

myobjective:
You can kill yourself the people of Ilorin are cool with their one/emir.

His position is a religious one and mostly ceremonial no one gives a Bleep.

The people of Ilorin are actually not
The people of Asa & Moro still want out
Emir has the backing of North who dominate politics Snr assistant of the British who gave it back to them when designing Nigeria
Obas are largely ceremonial
I’m a 100% yoruba lady and will call a spade a spade
Yorubas can get it back if they want too but there’s no conscious effort to get it since 70s
Awolowo tried his best to secure the territory but was opposed by Balewa & Azikiwe ( he would end up losing his domain to Cameroon and civil war)

Dreason:
they are not cool whit it, its just that they cant challenge the fulani. afonja cant fight for their land. the last time the had fight, the beged fulani to help them. chicken hearted afonjas cnt fight fulani. Religious kee you dey!

Have igbos liberated Anioma from Benin subjugation?

Yankee101:
Lol. Yep

UNAMID is a special mission of the United Nations and African Union to Dafur. It had over 30000 troops and personnel.

His budget was 1.7b dollars

Those that mean they gave him that ? You he block head aboki

ernieboy:
that he presided over. budget does not mean the funds belong to him.

That’s why I stopped arguing with him
That Adesina manages $150bn of AFDB does that mean he owns it

Looool

princdebola201:
that means re an ignorant, you dont have any business with the on going conversation.

To cure your ignorance , emir is not a Fulani title it belongs to Arabs . it is an Islamic name for a monarch

Emir in the Nigerian context is a Fulani title
They are the only tribe that bears the title
Same way yorubas bear the name Oba/Olu

ernieboy:
so he is fulani?

100% there’s the Alimi ruling house that’s where the Fulanis hail from lol don’t be deceived

Yankee101:
Go and find the budget for UNAMID when he was special envoy to Dafur

That’s irrelevant to this thread

Dpharisee:
Please stop hurting him with the truth

I’m educating him not hurting him

Yankee101:
Gambari is bigger than Gov Rasaq and Saraki combined.

He has been living and working in New York since 1974. And schooled in the UK/US before then

He is an international person. His last budget was 1.7b$. How much is Kwara budget? He is his own person

No he’s not
$1.7bn that’s a fat lie

Dpharisee:
Yes he does, when former Kwara state Governor Late Mohammed Lawal appointed a Yoruba Oba for Ilorin, it was rejected by the Sultan, who then ensured that Mohammed Lawal was never returned using Obasanjo who deployed Federal might to Kwara to ensure that Bukola Saraki was elected, meanwhile his father promised the Sultan that the Oba will be removed if his son gets elected and it all happened that way.

Yup that’s very true

lawani:
the emir is a Yoruba man of Hausa not Fulani descent.

The emir is a full blooded Fulani man
Fulani man will never mix with their subjects especially when it comes to royalty

Dpharisee:
He is as Americans will say like the house niggar (Slaves who see the slave master as a superior being because he provides food for them working in his house) and calling others (Yorubas) who are not willing to accept that status names

Not really he’s just confused how the Fulani strategy works
Popular yoruba Muslims names are Bakare, Mustapha, Ahmed, Razaq to mention a few

mfm04622:
I don't know how he came about the surname. However, know that even though not as pronounced as Fulani, Hausas have been living in Ilorin since it was established. However, he is Fulani since he belongs to the ruling family of Ilorin Emirate
