God will bless you for this, I supported buhari in 2015 but not anymore after showing his true color but what baffles me now is the people that are still in support of this evil government... I've been noticing one fool on this forum, "Manabbqgrillz" I think is the oga pata pata of them all here, but my prayer for him and his fellow BMC is that may Almighty Allah rule their lives just exactly the way their Darling daddy is ruling Nigeria Amin.

DukeNija:
Bold of you to assume this irresponsible government will reinject the excess funds into the economy. You’re holding this government to an astronomical standard.

The fate of Nigeria is Fulani terrorists taking over Aso Rock like this below after they are done using Fulani Nigeria army to defeat iswap and Boko. The South is doomed if we don't break out from Nigeria. Southern Nigeria will be competing with Dubai and Singapore in advanced development and prosperity if we break away from the Fulani terrorists dominated North. Otherwise it's just a matter of time they will enslave the whole Nigeria like they have turned Hausas to their slaves and loyal lapdogs.

Nuelito:

There are better opportunities over there than here.

But correct me if am wrong.... am ready to learn from you sir

Kastonkastroll:
But during their campaign these people promised to reduce the price of PMS. They held different rallies when Gej increased the price of fuel and today they are doing far worse than Gej in handling the economy of the country.

Buhari even had the temerity to tell Gej to resign when insecurity wasn't as bad as it is today. You can't even travel with your mind at peace. Our debts profile hasnt been this high. There is immense poverty in every nook and cranny of the country. Inflation has TKO the naira.

If fuel should be sold at 300naira per litre, how do these charlatans in power expect the average nigerian to survive? Though they say the average nigerian is a survival(but for how long)

God please give us succor, heal our land and provide for us. Amen!

Under what law did the UK have its own and who conducted it. Adults need to learn not to ask obvious questions.

There is a reason why countries have law makers and voting are organised in a country by designated bodies why creat problems where non exist.

God will punish all of you directly or indirectly involved in Lekki tollgate killings.

Well your federal government is going to have explain how it felt so threatend in 2017 by IPOB that was unarmed and killed nobody that it declared it a terrorist group, but was not threatened enough by the AK47 wielding herdsmen that are killing people all over Nigeria to declare them terrorists

The unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence against individuals or property in an attempt to coerce or intimidate governments or societies to achieve a political, religious or ideological objective.

Elzazzi:
Onyema own was kind of different.

gidgiddy:
In 2017 when the federal government proscribed IPOB, the group was not armed and did not kill anyone.

In 2019 when the federal government proscribed IMN, the group unarmed and killed no one

The federal government proscribes groups not based on if they are terrorists, but if they dont like what they agitating for

The unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence against individuals or property in an attempt to coerce or intimidate governments or societies to achieve a political, religious or ideological objective.

Does the Nigerian Constitution allow secession?

In-Brief

Under the Nigerian Constitution, no part of Nigeria has the power to form its own independent government or secede from the country. In fact, the word 'secede' does not appear in the Constitution.

Dig Deeper

The nearest answer to this is found in Article 2 of the constitution, which states that Nigeria is one indivisible and indissoluble sovereign state to be known by the name of the 'Federal Republic of Nigeria'. This means the only way to legally grant such an option is through an amendment to the law.

While there have been calls for a referendum, the constitution of Nigeria only addresses two scenarios where a referendum is recognised – state boundary adjustment and the recall of a member of the National Assembly.

Context

The only territory to 'leave' Nigeria, remains the Bakassi peninsula. This was a result of a territorial disagreement between Nigeria and Cameroon and was decided by the International Court of Justice in 2006. However, the origin of the dispute came from pre-independence deliberations. Thus, it did not fall under the constitution that does not permit secession.

The only real attempt to secede was the Nigerian Civil War from 1967-1970. This was a result of a declaration of an independent state by the late Odumegwu Ojukwu. Recently, the Biafra agitation has been brought back to the fore. Some Northern Youths’ in Kaduna demanded that Igbos leave Northern territory by October 1, 2017, and Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) stated that an elections will not take place in the East without the promise of a referendum on Biafra.

Ignored.... When north keep threatening that Nigeria cannot break without war

You're been deceived by cult clash. They're feeding you guys with fake info.

Dymaco:
Referendum is not done by the nation rather under strict supervision of UN

gabbytabby:
A referendum is necessary to establish the true will of the people and give legitimacy to subsequent actions.

Scotland had a referendum and the true will of the people emerged. Nigeria should not be afraid to have a referendum of its people.

Having it around December will allow for a time when people naturally go back home or we allow people to indicate their tribal/ancestral village/local government

Between IPOB and Fulani herdsmen which Will you like to visit your mother in her farm land?

Dymaco:
Scotland, Sudan, eriteria, Pakistan and India that separated, was referendum enshrined in their constitution? #referendum

Dymaco:
Who made the constitution? How many constitutions have Nigeria used? So constitution can be changed

Dymaco:
Who are the ipob? Do south easterners support biafra? If yes, why is the government suppressing call for referendum?

athaboi:
Who are you and how many of this post and article have you written about the killings in southern kaduna, Christians in plateau, innocent Tivs in Benue state, borno Muslims and christians alike, the zamfara helpless citizens, the hopeless indegines of Katsina state and rest of Nigerians who live in fear everyday. You guys will always find something to say about igbos but loose your Sense of reasoning where is needed most...Amosu and hateful kids

You better don't say this in public, else you might get lynched.
Inflation rate as of April 2021 is 18.12%, compared to 7.7% around 2014. Food inflation is over 20.57%, which is the highest it has ever been in over a decade. Unemployment rate is over 34%, which is the highest it has been in over 13 years. Our GDP ratio has gone down to about 1.01%. Naira is getting more useless by the day. We are in our second economic recession. Our debt is EXTREMELY high and it's about 1/4(quarter) of Nigeria's entire worth. Our "Misery point" as a nation is about 63 index point, etc Yet, you have the AUDACITY to say Nigeria is not doing bad economically??!!
You BMCs always amaze me, 'cause you all pretend you're intelligent. I don't even know where you people keep emanating from. How am I sure you even understand the statistical data I just gave you? You obviously lack the knowledge of our economic condition.
P.s. You've not answered my previous question.
