auwal87:
Let me start from the bottom up.

Your points are not qualified at all, you know why Arewa people are not doing anything at the moment? Because they are Lazy, do you know why they are Lazy? Because of Oil.

5- IBB and Co are all going to die soon, new fresh bloods will emerge soon, with hearts of courage to empower our people

4- Arewa unlike any other Muslim countries are far more liberal, some few bad elements emerge because of poverty and seeking name only, but Arewa will be just like Turkey in Europe, or Malaysia in Asia, or Bahrain in Middle East.

3- Almajirai are a great resource for Arewa Republic, in no time, they will disappear from the streets, 65% that is not fear, we have more civil servants than any region in Nigeria, go to the ministries in Abuja and other states of Arewa, they are all from Arewa (at least 90%). This is the reality, we have qualified doctors, qualified engineers (go to ABU Zaria and see those behind the Nuclear project, they are all from Arewa), we have Business Gurus (Arewa even though it doesn't have sea ports, most of the distributions are carried from here, I have never seen someone traveling from Arewa to Odua or Biafra to purchase imported food stuffs, but you will see lots of them coming to Arewa to purchase imported stuffs, go to Singer market in Kano, you will see what I am telling you, that markets carries transactions worth billions of naira every single day, why? Because we consume. See Arewa, only those who are ignorant about the country will tell you we only have Almajirai. Because that's what you see in the south.

2- NO! A big NO! Oil is only a curse to Nigeria, only the wicked countries look at Nigeria with like that. The good countries want Nigeria to get their facts right, abandon oil, or at least depend less on oil, develop other sectors, generate employment. You see having an Oil in Nigeria is only a curse to Arewa because it made our people lazy and depends heavily on salaries and revenues from the federal government. But by the time there is no oil, people will understand, and they will wake up to the reality. They will ask question to themselves. What about if this people abandon us, what should we tell our children and grand children, what have we done for them?

1- Yes, Landlocked, but see also in Europe::::
Andorra
Armenia
Austria
Belarus
Czech Republic
Vatican City (Holy See)
Hungary
Liechtenstein
Luxembourg
Moldova
San Marino
Serbia
Slovakia
Switzerland

They are all landlocked countries. Aren't they better than Nigeria in terms of Anything?

Boy, wake up, Arewa is not what you think it is;

gbam gbam gbam

one we secede, thing would get better for us

DapoBear:
Whatever it is they lack, we can provide. Point is, we are there to support them. They won't get wiped out of Warri or the Delta under our watch.

gbam

not only yorubas but northerners also

EzeUche0:
Are the Ijaws even native to Nigeria? I heard they originated from Ghana. They are similar to the Ga people.

gbam gbam gbam

they migrated from ghana 1000 years ago

and yet they claim land in nigeria

chyz:
what has OBJ got to do with Ijaw population,small boy?

Ibibio(including annang, ekoi)., get it right. And didnt you just say itsekiri is the 5th largest tribe in nigeria, numbering at 2-3mill? So i guess the Edo and Ibibio are now only 1mill each abi?

who are u calling a small boy

why do u want make me angry at u

Beaf:
Ijaws riverine people who are spread along the coastline, from Rivers, to Bayelsa, Delta, Edo and Ondo. Its almost a continous stretch, in fact were it not for Itsekiri land, it would have been that Ijaws occupied all coastal lands from Rivers to Ondo state.

that is a lie!!!!!!

EzeUche0:
To be honest, I have always doubted the Ijaw population number. They cannot be the largest ethnic group in the South-South. The Ibibio, Annang, and Efik people have the numbers. I am not saying this, because I am half Igbo

ijaws are not even the largest ethnic group in nigerdelta

it just a political move by obj

there are isoko, itsekiri, efik, yorubas, igbos, ibibios, annang,ogoni,ekoi, esan, etc that made up nigerdelta

so how come ijaw is the largest of them

and with what population

lies i tell u, lies

chyz:
Beccomerich you're very funny. We both know northerners no nothing about the tribes in the ND. They think we all are Igbo. You cover is really weak. Next time do better.

i am not becomrich, abi

what is ur problem with me becoming becomrich

i am not becomrich

i am tried of thisoooooo

EzeUche0:
Lets be honest, the Itsekiri have powerful allies in the Yoruba. Many Yoruba consider these people as the same as them. Likewise, the Anioma Igbo have allies amongst the hinterland Igbo.

look, the sooner ikweerri, ika etc see themselves as one(igbo), the better it is for them in nigeria

if the igbos can not speak with one voice, then they would be politically irrelevant to nigeria

the ijaws are shifting igbos away from power, day by day

jason12345:
i don't even understand the guy

chyz:
The dumbest comment that I've heard all day.You must have got that information out of your azz.

what dumbest comment

i tell u the 5th largest group in nigeria is itsekiri of population of 2-3 million people

u people just want to classify them as ijaw,,,,, NO
they have rights also

DapoBear:
Hrm, does anyone have approximate demographic figures for Delta State?

Anyway, this isn't the stone age. Even if the Itsekiri are only 10% of the population of the state, nobody is going to allow them to be railroaded. I guess it is helpful for a smaller group like the [b]Itsekiri to have a big brother [/b]in the Yoruba. Not to mention that the rest of the world will be watching what occurs.

It shouldn't be hard to resolve the issues. If it turns out that Warri is not a majority Itsekiri city (which is almost certainly the case), then it would be unjust for the Itsekiri to have sole primacy there. However, this doesn't mean they will be enslaved in their own homeland. If necessary, downgrade the Olu of Warri to the Olu of Itsekiri. In exchange, the Ijaw should offer something as well. Give and take from both sides; we should be able to find a compromise that leaves everyone slightly unhappy, but mostly satisfied.

and also the northerners and kanuris from the borno empire.

Beaf:
Sometimes I think theres only beans between your ears, why don't you ask what you don't know?

sharrp

do u know that itsekiri is the 5th largest group in nigeria after ijaw

there about 2-3million itsekiri so what are u talking about

do not check wikipedia becuase it can be edited any time

becomrich4:
which oil dey south east you make laugh. you be ogbologbo 419.

Beaf:
If there is an equitable union in which population is negated as a political intrument, ND people wouldnt mind being with the Igbo's. But I see an ND state as more likely and with the presence of Delta state people, we should be able to work out a system where etnic population does not count; that will be necessary to protect our smallest groups, the Itsekiri and the Isoko.

who told u itsekiri is a small group

hmmm

DapoBear:
If the Itsekiri shall not be in Biafra, then it seems doubtful to me that Warri or Delta state is likely to follow.

gbam

itsekiri is a dialect of ijebu

but they oringnated from the benin kingdom

ijaw people are not the 4th largest ethnic group, it is just a political slogan by obj

ijaws are not the owner of warri

i think the ss like us northerners because we both share a common goal
to make this country a better islamic state for our citizen
but soon enough igbos would join us in this union, i bet u
because igbo, ijaws and us northerners share a very common goal

ss with the igbo, i don't see that happen because must igbos and ohaneze re for ibb instead of gj wish is the ss only optunity to be president

some ppl just come to this forum and start chatting rubbish

how can u compare obj to abacha or ibb

obj did the best for this country

this man is trying to remove power from the former politians and give it to the new ones

how do some ppl reason, i wonder

jason12345:
this is just sad.

leave emeagwali alone!!!!!!!!!what about ibb and atiku?



misplaced priorities

gbam, why not investigate ibb, tinubu and co

why emeguali

Onlytruth:
To see how RIDICULOUS this so called "investigation" is, Mr Phillip Emeagwali left Nigeria with a foreign scholarship in 1974 at the age of 17

He obtained a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Oregon State University in 1977
from a scholarship he won in 1974.

He obtained two Masters Degrees from George Washington University and the University of Maryland respectively, studying mathematics and environmental engineering.

HE OWES NOTHING TO NIGERIA. END OF STORY.

i agree, why should nigeria investigate someone that is not a nigerian with passport

they should leave emeguali alone
