Relax!!! maybe na error nw. lols

it's not an error. For some months now punch has gone berserk with Igbo obsession.

seunmsg:
I think there is a court judgement that stipulates tenure for members of CCT and CCB and that’s why CCB chairman and commissioners are always changed even before they get to 70 years. CCT can’t be treated differently.

you think?

Earthquakes:
Owolowo will not believe what he is seeing

worse will still happen to education in the south west.

Goodvibes007:
See as the mod rush the thing to FP 😂. If we post similar ones like how SE are the promiscuous, highest rate of HIV, highest terrorism e.t.c. it gets put in the dustbin of Nairaland.

it lacks credible source. Only those who haven't been to north will believe they're not worst in indiscriminate s*x.

This one is sourced from UNICEF.

Who dash them?

Biodun556:
EU , US and France are still in deep pain as Russia is taking over west Africa Francophone countries.

Few weeks ago US sent one of its official to Nigeria urging Nigeria to declare war on Niger military government

As Nigeria continues to ignore US call to fight Russia backed military regime in West Africa, the next option to use proxy against them. As northern Nigeria continues to show interest in Russian influence, then more terrorists organizations may spring up to destabilize the region as punishment for their insensitivity.

quit the delusion. If the protest continues amids serious hardship and Pro Russian sentiments grows, the west will support a "pre-emptive coup" that will enthrone a pro west military junta just like in Gabon. They know Russia will take advantage of the anti democracy sentiments occasioned by hardship.

The problem with Nigeria is that while there is a consensus that the country and it's leadership have failed, there is no unified nationwide response to this failure because of mutual hatred and suspicion among regions and ethnicities, making it likely that any military coup or revolution presently will achieve break up of the country instead of change of government.

EreluRoz:
I thought as much but someone up there said they are ijaws

Nairaland is full of malicious characters. Opobo and Bonny people are descendants of mainly Ndoki people with Igbo as native language and culturally riverine.

Christistruth02:
They are Ijaws though Jaja himself was born Igbo but later embraced Ijaw identity

But opobo people themselves are Ijaws

Jaja was Igbo. Opobo are Igbo also called Ubani people.

EreluRoz:
Who are the Opobos, are they igbos from Rivers state?

they are Igbo speaking People

Reno don cast. Despite all his efforts not to appear harsh on them, his Northern friends still see am finish.

Lol

Hmm

Replace Southern Nigeria with southwest Nigeria. No one asked where you come from.

Tinubu is still playing petty tribal politics.

Lol

Single point not found in the entire article.

You're correct. Northern Nigeria faces the same problem the rest of the sahel is facing.

Insecurity
Poverty
Perceived inability of their prowestern govt to solve it.

It's no surprise they yearn for the same solution Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger adopted which is a switch in alliance to Russia. The west is about to get the repercussion of weaponizing Northern underdevelopment for the control of the entire country. Considering the north have been traditional allies of the west since amalgamation to the detriment of the East, this is a very serious issue not only to the UK/US but also has serious implications for Nigeria's existence. Nigerians are unaware.

Raf4:
You people are just too daftt to think that Awolowo, a blooody civilian, should have led the SW/Yoruba people in joining Biafra war to ceased from Nigeria.

but he was civilian enough to join gowon to fight Biafra. Always giving senseless excuse like fools you guys are.

Acekidc4:
🤣😂🤣 if dem like make dem carve out 22 more states to SE, only Ibadan for SW go still big pass them. Mtcheeew

and that land can't feed you guys. Imo has a bigger GDP than Oyo and Osun put together.

WhizdomXX:
You are right but Biafra is non-achievable.

of course.

43Ronin:
Why can't they create Anioma state? Comprising of the 7 igbo LGAs of Delta.

9 not 7

LifestyleTonite:
Your people's penchant to look away even when truth stares them in the face is legendary.

Look at how you excused Zik from the blame. Zik ought to have argued in favour of secession like Awolowo, but he probably thought his people would succeed in lording over other tribes. Sadly, the opposite is the case today.

If Zik had supported secession clause, that would have been two against one. His people won't be screaming Biafra or death today and begging to secede. So you see, Awolowo was a visioneer, he saw today from yesterday.

It's sad that you now want Awolowo to commit a treasonable offense like Ojukwu after the latter's brother Zik supported the law that placed secessionist tendencies as treason.

The moment you fail to acknowledge the truth, no matter how bitter, you will start to make horrible decisions. That's what is wrong with your people.

shut up! Gowon ended federalism in Nigeria and declared war not zik. Zik supported a regional federation and did not contradict himself. Zik never claimed to be a seperatist. It was Awolowo who claims to be a separatist at first but when it was time to act it out during the war, he started to endorse what he hated.

Awolowo was the only politician in history who is known to have taken a major decision not based on strategy but his "antipathy towards the Igbos" Such a fool.

nobody really knows what he stood for till this day.

Market cap does not really determine the size of a company, only it's current value.

Zik stood for regionalism and federalism with financial and legislative autonomy where the regions developed in their own pace. No contradictions.

One of the most confusing figures in Nigeria's history was Awolowo. He claimed he wanted secession and zik rejected. But when the opportunity presented itself during Biafra, the same Awolowo made a complete U-turn and and started fighting for a unitary one Nigeria as championed by gowon. His attitude justified Zik's opinions about him.

For those who claim his demand was in good faith, his demand was rediculous and he knew it. He was neither here no there. There is no sovereign state in the world that has secession in it's constitution. If he truly wanted his region to be alone he should have demanded a pre-independence referendum like southern Cameroon or pre-independence partitioning as in British India. Opting for a secession clause instead of pre-independence referendum clearly indicated lack of commitment to specific ideology from Awolowo. You can't officially keep one leg in the country and keeping one outside. A snake he was.

Good

Suspended! Not called off.

mrvitalis:
They merge with other states and lose their federal representatives slots

Economic viability should be key to States creation

if you understand what self determination is all about, you should know that viability squarely rest with the people once the meet the minimum population threshold.

Brilliant idea. But the seperatists have won public opinion in the East. People who strongly championed restructuring in the past like Ben Nwabueze , Alex Ekwueme, Chukwuemeka Ezeife etc have passed on.

The seperatists will win. It's a matter of time.
