BluntBoy:
So, we should fold our hands and let another armed group join the ones already troubling the peace of the country

Come on, we can't afford another terrorist group on our hands. If they had tamed Yusuf when he began his extreme Salafist teachings in Yobe, we won't have Boko Haram today. If Abacha had handled the Niger-Delta issue with tact, we won't have to deal with youth militancy in the Niger Delta.

And if we had addressed the farmer-herdsman crisis a long time ago, we won't be reading news about killings and reprisals.

Kanu is not a tactful person. If he is not dealt with, he would become another trouble. And as you know, it would certainly be the region he comes from that would suffer it. .

If he wants referendum, there are better ways to get it. Buhari cannot give him referendum. Only the constitution can. And there is nothing like referendum in our constitution.

You've said it all

Tranquillity360:
What are the things you are doing to get your restructuring?

Since Kanu escaped the attack by nigeria army,how many times have we hear noise for restructuring.

We are not against your restructuring,if you get restructuring we will drop biafra and join you in your one nigeria chant.


Do your thing while we do ours.

Can you get us evidence that his house was attacked by the Nigerian army?

BRASH:
. U have d time to quote a slowpoke.if NK should get the support of any world power to go to war, nigeria is finished. I pray it doesn,t happen. Instead of these idiots to demand for good governance, they choose to worship and lick the anuses of their opppressors because of tribe and religion thinking they are sophisticated. I,am not igbo, bt i admire the courage and tenacity of NK and ipob in figthing for their right. i hope that some day, their agitation will bring to an end the injustice going on in this contraption called nigeria without bloodshed

Let him get just one world power first before you start boasting

UdechiHD:
Kanu on numerous occasions foolishly called for arms. Whether he did it as a bragging right to gain attention is what I don't know.
Non-violent struggle has been the mantra of MASSOB the group he (Kanu) broke out from. But immediately the dumb came to national relevance he began to subly deviate from civility into a call for violence.
Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB have succeded in killing the noble ideals of Biafra with their uncultured bad breathe. They brought their travails upon themselves. Let them dance to the music.

Fact

gidgiddy:
Anybody can solicit arms. What matters is if you actually get arms and what you use it for.

That's why Kanu could not be charged based on that video. The solicitation its self is not illegal

I can say that I want guns so as to go and rob a bank. But if I never got the guns and never robbed any bank, I have not committed any crime except to talk

You mean you are in America and soliciting for arms to destroy America, are you OK bros?

Victorex001:
Stop these childish lies...no one is calling for war Olodo!

Nnamdi Kanu and Biafrans have always been about referendum, why would anyone call for war?

Referendum is being sold at main market, 100 naira apiece

Angelfrost:
Secession is not always as bad as you have been led to think or believe... Not every country is truly meant to exist as a nation...

Ask Russia, Slovakia, Eritrea, etc....

Have you asked how they all have a referendum in their constitution, Eritrea and Ethiopia didn't have anyway

Eberejesus111:
Humans have a taste of bickering. If the man called for war, people like you would call it treason, now he called for a referendum, you tell him to ask for war. Please stability is key to every process, and i guess the man Nnamdi Kano, knows the ordinary citizen of Nigeria are not reliable to make solid judgment but absolute mockery of the terms at hand. Bless you today.

Why is he in London and shouting referendum when he can easily buy it at main market Onitsha?

desmond2pk:
What is wrong for soliciting for arms to defend yourself?
Didn't buhari solicit for arms and even encouraged his supporters to kill innocent people?

Go to America and solicit for arms to destroy it and see if you'd be a free man in minutes by the time the CIA has picked you up

solmusdesigns:




foolish man isnt gaining much media traction and he is blaming the media, but when he got all front page media he felt like a God, now that almost 6 of his broadcast never made headline he is crying fowl of the media lol (he has dictatorial tendencies and ability to fault media for his own shortcommings) ,

Lamidi Kanu should either come home to bury decaying mum (rirp to her soul) or send the Turkish and US forces biafrans paid for to get the corpse


...

You forgot to add the Israeli forces too

gidgiddy:
Yes he did solicit arms in America. It is legal for anybody to solicit arms, especially in America that has given people the right to bear arms

What matters is if he got arms and if he used them illegally

Those who already have arms and are killing thousands every year are getting rewarded with Ruga.

That means that Nnamdi Kanu should be given a national award for only soliciting since those who went far beyond soliciting are getting rewarded

Did he at any point say he wanted the arms to battle Nigeria?
Not even an American can say and remain a free man

CodeTemplar:
I am not that impulsive and naive. What if bubu kpais and Osinbajo doesn't close bother next year. I will now be stuck with tramadol drinking farmers who can outwork even tractors after losing my 9-5 hustle. You try well well. Thanks.

You can see how lazy you are, why can't you work as hard as they do?
Bring us your tomatoes and onions and we'll buy them which you're smiling to the bank

musicwriter:
You asked how big the population of the locked out market and I said150 million. That's just an estimate, it could be a bit bigger or smaller. As for ECOWAS regulations, I already mentioned that those countries obey the rules but Nigerians have a way of getting around it via loopholes therein.

Someone has started throwing insults on this thread, so I am out as I don't hang around with such. I believe I've made my contribution, you too.

See you later.

If I should go by your estimate, Nigeria is 201 million and who needs who more for survival?
Those leeching ECOWAS countries know Nigeria would always forgive after some weeks after warnings in the past, they are surprised that Nigeria wouldn't even bother after much begging for so many months.
Those leeching ECOWAS countries know the ECOWAS rule yet fail to follow after several warnings.

Better come here for more lectures

PrecisionFx:
""That if the must access our market,, they must tackle smuggling.""

U are quite confused. Nigeria is the one who is supposed to tackle smuggling. U have thousands of corrupt custom officials who collect bribe and allow any good to pass thru.

""You’ll agree with me that this closure of border has made a lot of rice milling company spring up in Nigeria recently. ""

Blatant silly lies.






""Why is there no employment?: Because there are a lot of dumping through imports that are killing our not too strong industries""


There's no employment because u don't have electricity, not because of imports.


""(By now, our neighbors would have realized that they cannot do without our 200million people market""


They can easily do without u and ur fake 200 million over bloated population, there are over 7.5 billion people on earth. Within a few months, Ghana and all these nations will find alternatives and sell their market and life would go on.

You see how you're trying to kee yasef over border closure, why is Ghana not looking for alternative markets to sell her goods instead of begging Nigeria to open up her border?
I'm sure if you've gotten other markets, your ministers, past and present presidents won't be begging us to open up

Duggedised12:
Audio rise Animal farm. A big for nothing giant on paper that even Boswana and Rwanda is better than . By the way is vision 2020 still visible?

Why are you not in Botswana or Rwanda and leave the rest of us alone

modelmike7:
go killl urself, cos of dis positive news. na una way wailers

If the economy was reportedly said to have a negative growth rate, you'd have seen same wailers jubilating because of the bad news and cursing Buhari till thy kingdom come, news like this gives them nightmares

musicwriter:
You've just turned logic upside down. The whole reason we're even talking about smuggling is because its cheaper, faster, easier to import in neighboring countries than Nigeria.

We're talking about a population of about 150 million. And I bet you, they'll find alternatives. Nigeria has just given then an idea of what to do.

Who are the 150 million, Nigeria or the rest of ECOWAS?

Do you even understand the ECOWAS rule on importing from a third party that is not a member of ECOWAS and moving the goods to the recipient country?

musicwriter:
Illegal businesses are not the only thing going on across the border. There're more genuine businesses going on there than illegal. Many businesses in both Nigeria and neighboring countries are paralysed right now but that's the part your FG won't tell you.

Milo
Maltina, malta guiness, etc.
Coke, fanta, etc.
Lux, Detol, Detla, etc.
Toothpaste- Close up, Maxam, etc.
Plastic utensils.
Electronic goods- TVs, phone, etc.
Car spare parts.
..........Plus too many others so many to name, all get supplied legitimately from Nigerian companies to neighboring countries. But guess what？Neighboring countries would soon be compeled to find alternatives elsewhere, therefore, put Nigerian businesses out of business. Again, this's the part they won't tell you.

We all know that but not at the scale you're talking, what's the total population and economic strength of Ghana, Togo, Benin, Niger, Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso etc combined compared to Nigeria that their failure to not buy goods from Nigeria would collapse our industries? They have no alternative than to come using the seaport because importing from Europe would be far more expensive for them.

You are telling us about our loss but you don't know that your alomo bitters company is losing $1 million monthly since the closure, your GCCI visited about 3 or 4 companies in the Kumasi region and collectively they are losing $3 million weekly, these are figures that are in public domain, what about those companies in Ghana presently dying off?

helinues:
They are both were..

Seriously o

omenka:
You think if Maina was to be a Northerner, they would have been treating him like dirt? He is suffering this way because he is a Southerner and a Christian. That's all.

Lol, just like Dansuki that is from the south and Christian too

helinues:
Maina, the drama king himself..

Metuh is only learning where Maina dey

I beg to disagree, Metu's last stunt still beats them all.
The only stunt that can subdue that of Metu is if anyone decides to appear in court in a casket

mrvitalis:
Read the function of the president under parliamentary system or you can look at wiki dropped a screen shots showing

Our parliamentary system was copied from the British and the president represented the queen its basic knowledge the queen appoint the prime minister


Where did I tell you awo killer himself ? Even tho we all know he didb

Sorry about the death stuff, it was actually @meleszenawi that said so.
When did Zik appoint the prime minister? Forget their functions for now.

The prime minister is usually the leader of the ruling party and he/she can be told to resign if other MPs are not satisfied, the Queen doesn't just walk into Parliament and picks anybody of her choice to become the PM, her appointment is merely ceremonial

mrvitalis:
Which two links

You said Awo killed himself and when Zik appointed the prime minister

mrvitalis:
See where it was written that zik was appointed prime minister by the British governor general and zik was the governor general ...

Now tell me any post awolowo held that was bigger than zik ....

Your link said the British Governor general and not Zik and that was before independence, you saw the name of the British Governor general there

seunmsg:
God! How can just one person be this ignorant?

Guy abeg, go and read up secondary school government textbooks and stop embarrassing yourself. This is no longer funny to be honest.

Stop disturbing him, let him continue to wallow in his ignorance, you've schooled him enough.

mrvitalis:
Did expect south east to vote for south west ? Is that what you want ?

How is south west better than south east oga .....
We are capitalist ...buhari n APC has helped south east without knowing , the rate at which Igbo's invest back home is unbelievable
Owerri has almost doubled in 5 years ,Enugu is ever expanding awka oh mine

We can do without government ....

You were more advanced before the British came ,we lost everything during the war ...you have been at the corridor of power more than us yet you can't say you are better than us

You should burry your head in shame

I careless to read your write up, just send me the two links I asked for, simple

mrvitalis:
He was the head of state case closed ...he appointed the prime minister hope u know that ?

Zik was also governor general ,which was equivalent of prime minister , ...zik was senate president ,which was awolowo highest post again ?

A link to where Zik appointed the prime minister, you've not sent me the link I asked for earlier

mrvitalis:
Same reason west didn't contest in 2015/2019 is same reason east won't bother in 2023

We could have ended the north burn to rule in 2015 but u brought it back ....history would remember that ....hope u are proud of your actions in 2015 n 2019

The SW had produced the president and the present VP since 1999 showing superiority over the SE that can't smell the positions, at least for now.
You can go ahead and deposit your 5% to the north, it doesn't change the fact that the SW is ahead politically

seunmsg:
The way some of you display crass ignorance with so much confidence is really baffling. How can a ceremonial puppet with zero power be the head of government?


Azikiwe was the ceremonial head of state while Balewa was the head of government. There is no point arguing blindly just to feel good.

It's really baffling to say the least, they know nothing, won't even make any research to learn only to come online to say what they do not know anything about.

mrvitalis:
You guys really don't get it ,Igbo's don't care about if we rule or not all we Care is getting equal chance

If we have regional government with regional police and the concurrent list is removed Igbo's won't care about abuja

We sacrificed our turn so we can get rid of Fulani dominance don't that show you the kind of people we are ?

Almost every tribe in nigeria are socialist in nature ,north ,west ,that's why they need power and are crazy about it

Igbo's and esan people of Edo are the only real capitalist I know in Nigeria

Even if all anini power he never cared to rule Edo state ...we are not power hungry ,

Igbo's can even support south south in 2023

We don't just forgive betrayals ,minus Islam we and Hausa's ( not Fulani's ) would he best partner in nigeria

2023 is not about power to south east but about paying back 2015

Continue backing others to your detriment, your choice but don't come back and start begging to be given the slot in any party and not after the election and a northerner wins, you'd start deafening us with "north born to rule mentality".

I asked you for a link earlier.

orion7:
you people with foresight. wer you exempted from paying 7.5% VAT increase ?

Why didn't you help in putting in your person there, who knows maybe he'd have reduced it to 1%

mrvitalis:
The whole south supported Jonathan in 2011 stop making it as an Igbo affair
The whole south saw a Chance to relegate the Fulanis that had held this country back for years

Even if the Igbo's knew they were going to be the biggest losers and extend the time frame for an Igbo president ... Yet we did it for the benefits of the south ...and nigeria at large . that tells you the mind set of the average Igbo man ....only for one part of the south to betray the agreement in 2015

Yes the Igbo's failed ,yes we tried to prevent a mistake like buhari ...

Now we are offering the north their chance back in 2023 ...like u did in 2015 ...north know Igbo's don't like them ,we know they don't like us ,but we form alliance when its important ...we don't pretend

The SE did what it did because I repeat it lacks foresight, the SW had already had it's turn so careless about who's coming in, the SS had a little stint as VP and later acting president, the SE was supposed to have theirs in 2015 but Igbo politicians blew it away.

Who and who signed the agreement?
