I've always wondered why Delta, the richest oil producing state does not have a standard Federal university despite their standing in academics, and why Delta north does not have a single public university.

Jonathan was a fool, really.

ok

When she becomes their first lady in future, they will rant about how she is employing her people and running the state.

accommodators who accommodate even their wives.

Yorubas don't play with their culture. I love how they yorubanized their currency.

MNK should do away with that pound. We have nothing in common with Britain.

How do I get Oodua citizenship?

That means you've not been following. The pound has been done away with since 2015.

Anti-Christ biden

Foreigners easily identify with Biafran colours than Nigerian.

I doubt the Army has sufficient training and men to fight in multiple frontiers, much more gorilla warfare. Already the army couldn't muster enough confidence to punish those who absconded from boko haram fight and quickly reabsorbed them.

Any idiot who has marital issues blames it on tradition. what has gizzard got to do with violence against women?

BinamRex:
That Delilah helped them when their career was still in its infancy. The first air-condition car they rode was Lola's. When lola started dating Peter, people wondered what she saw in him because he wasn't her class. She used her connection to pave way for PSquare. Know the facts before you cast stones.

and she is now helping him into oblivion abi.
what a liar!

Obviously, Paul didn't marry a Delilah like lola.
But he should stop wearing Red cap on this type of hair.

Misleading
a lot of the 'views' are bought in some cases.

What a write up!
quit clowning op, anything else outside Anambra, Imo and Delta in no particular order as first three is a mere wish list.

She does not deserve you as daughter in law and if she is unjust to you, she just ended up setting her son back.
It is not really an Igbo versus Yoruba thing if you consider how generally humans are prejudiced against anyone not from their class or status.For latest free stuff, www.freestuffsng.com

She set her son back huh? Why don't she go and marry a Yoruba guy and move him forward?

No mother wants a "Lola" for her son, not even queen Elizabeth!

looks good. Why not wait after independence?

police won't investigate this. They are extorting motorists at checkpoints.

Though I haven't seen this elsewhere.

Tochj:
I fear for you guys here on nairaland.
How can a Human being with a soul be unhappy that ESN want to save people under Fulani siege.
Does it mean that they are happy that berom people has lost 15 communities to Fulani..
That Yewa people are refugees.
Is it envy, foolishness or hatred.

slayersupreme igboid awgumayor eastisbae is the same anti Biafra fool called pazienza. He masquerades in several monickers.

I hope middle belt isn't part of their arewa

AlexBells:
Being Part of Biafra or not is not about individual perception, there are some opinions we don't have to let cloud our judgement, if you are accepting Idoma and Igala, why leave only Tiv Behind, besides the decision of whether or not they become part of Biafra will be left for the Tiv people and the government of Biafra whenever such Biafra comes if it ever comes.

I said you're in sane.
au revoir!

AlexBells:
If it happens, Enugu will be the capital and Owerri or Okigwe can be the regional capital, why make PH the capital, even if there will be PH state, PH is a coastal city very close to the shore, if a anything goes wrong a navy ship can walk in and strike the capital, Enugu is the best becuase eventually Biafra might accept some Christian communities in the middle belt like Igala, Tiv and Idoma

Tiv? You're insane

Depending on the territories Biafra leaves with. If lower Benue and lower Igala becomes part of Biafra as proposed, then Enugu as capital should be hours away from another country. In that case we'll have a little to fear. Also Enugu has more going for it in terms of space for expansion. But then, When we have regions representing the various groups such as Igbo, Efik/Ibibio, Ijaw, Idoma regions etc which city becomes the capital of an Igbo speaking province if Enugu is made the country's capital?
If not Enugu, is Igweocha not built up already for such?

Muric come to East and say it. We'll help you with a job. The one that will keep you busy with silence below the ground forever. Ewu!

This company is owned in part by an Ecuadorian, I learnt.

where is the pedestrian bridge obiano promised Regina caeli junction?
where are the dualized roads he promised on his second term inauguration in Awka, Onitsha and Nnewi?
When will Eke Awka be relocated?

Obiano performed poorly.

Obiano is a tout

Igboid:
Ikwerre, Ukwuani and Ika are not Igbos. Irrespective of your delusions. That's the fact.
They are Igbophobic, so naturally I don't like them too. Its only normal to return loathe with loathe. That's how things work in real world.

I'm pan Igboist. I believe in Igboland which doesn't include those places I mentioned already.
I believe Biafra should be a strictly Igbo agenda, which it already is, only that IPOB live under the delusion that it isn't.

I support Biafra as far it's restricted to only Enuani, SE, Obiigbo and Egbema, with concrete effort made to keep Egbema, Obiigbo and Enuani away from identity crises and the resultant Igbophobia.

I already asked you to stop quoting me. Take care of yourself.

Igboid:
You wrote a verbose post without even addressing the real points I raised.

Let me highlight them for you:

1. The Igbophobic Igboids in Ikwerre, Ika, Ukwuani are beyond redemption. They are gone forever and we can't get them back. If you belong to Facebook pages of these minorities and see the type of raw undiluted Igbophobic utterances they make their, you will develop your own hate for them as I have done.
You ain't getting them into your Biafra. They wouldn't let your referendum hold in their lands. Some of you IPOB hate embracing the truth.


2. The non Igbo minorities are on aggressive expansionist drive towards Igboland. They will reject your Biafra as they are currently doing because they know your Biafra is aimed at stopping their expansionist agendas.
So how exactly do you intend putting them into your utopian multiethnic Biafra? By force?
How hard is it to understand that multiethnic Biafra will not happen because those groups have their own Igbophobic agenda? Why is it hard for you lots to understand that these groups are our number 1 immediate ENEMIES and not allies as they constitute existential threat to our ancestral lands?

3. Ukwuani, Ikwerre and Ika are gone. Ndoki is the battle ground today. What is it going to be? Will you IPOB be useful for once and drop your stupid multiethnic Biafra and help Ndiigbo push the Ijaws back or will you continue your foolishness?

Now, let me make it clear.

I have tried to understand what you want but couldn't. You are so much worried about the behavior of other Igbo groups but you are not interested in the cause and it's remedy. You're not even interested in Igbo unity and by all definitions, not an Igbo nationalist. You don't even support Biafra, and your definition of proud Igbos shrinks whenever you're tiggered.

You don't support support Biafra, you don't support pan Igboism. All you're interest in is how to hate them since they hate us.

I think your problem is more of paranoid personality disorder. Stop quoting me and see a jerk!

Igboid:
So how exactly will you your senseless multiethnic Biafra address all these injustice against Ndiigbo?

Good question. Now, maybe you'll need to ask yourself how Pre-war Eastern region was so managed that minority excesses were curtailed. Eastern region so prospered that it was described as one of the fastest developing economies in the world. Minorities though had their aspirations, knew their boundaries and therefore were able to predict the viability of their proposed states. The region was reasonably integrated. Many Ijaws born in the era bore Igbo names like even GEJ, many of them spoke Igbo as first language or were very bilingual eg Rex Lawson and Harcourt White. Even when Adaka boro declared his ND republic, he never had support among his people. When it was halted, we saw that he knew the Ijaws boundaries through his maps, and the expansionist instincts being displayed today wasn't at play then. Why was it so then? Why were groups disciplined then and respected each other?
It's mostly because Eastern region had clear political boundaries in the form of provinces and divisions which also reflected the ethnic identities. Even the Rivers province had Port Harcourt and Ahoada divisions which were Igbo speaking divisions, and guess what? They resented joining Rivers state as well as others Igbos did. So how did they suddenly become "self-loathing reprobates" after the war ended? how did Ogoni suddenly develop the guts to demand the ogonization of the name 'Obigbo'? How did a youngman in his 20s started Ijawnisation of Porthacourt with the name changes? how was towns and city that were not minority territories annexed into minority states?

The answer is very simple. We lost the war and lost the ability to make things happen in our own terms or even negotiate from a strong position. As a result, Ijaws were emboldened and Igbos given to them to govern. They created structures to deliberately distort Igbo national integration in the state. Which is why Ogbako ikwerre was created for the purpose of advancing FG -backed Ikwerre seperatism, LGA's and Senate districts were not delineated to reflect cultural groups as obtainable in places like delta and Benue, No formal teaching of their own native language of Igbo, Ikwerre suddenly appeared in the constitution as a tribe, even Ada George sand filled PH water fronts to create a homeland to ijaw people etc Now, compare it with Delta state where their senatorial districts reflect language boundaries. you will see that the identity crisis is far less toxic. The Ukwuani and Ika will like to argue about being from Benin but most accept the Anioma tag, which basically is Igbo and fight together for anioma state. The Igbo denial is just as normal as with Igede to Idoma or Urhobo and Isoko. Now imagine if Kwale was moved to Delta central and was made capital on the condition of proclaiming an Isoko origin, Igbo denial would be more lucrative and politicians would keep the divisions alive and use ethnic identity politics to survive, just like the way your own SE governors kill and work against their people to survive in politics. Don't underestimate the power of an establishment. From their flows money, power and legitimacy.

To answer your question, When Biafra comes, regions will reflect ethnic identities, respect for each other and sanity will return.

I think I'm clear enough. If you choose to remain dense, you can suit yourself.

Igboid:
You will not be able to reverse the Ogonization and Ijawnization policy if you are on your feet begging them to join your Biafra.

The way you are going. You will give away many concessions to the minorities to have them in Biafra that would make it impossible for Ndiigbo to reverse those policies.

What's the point of having Ikwerre in Biafra? Can you go to any Rumu village and do your rallies?
You know what Ikwerre Youths did the last time Ohaneze Ndiigbo tried to host Igbo day in PH? They raised so much dust that the governor of Rivers and the owner of the venue the events were scheduled to hold had to tell Ohaneze to look for a new city to hold the event.

Yes! Ikwerre is like a rotten tomato you have to pick and throw away lest it cause the rest of the good tomatoes to decay. Ikwerre is not Igbo and they are more Igbophobic than Ijaws. Unlike you lots that like living in fantasy, I live in reality. Ikwerre is gone!

I have never hated Ndoki. I'm only raising alarm so that we can nip things in their bud over there.

So you lots are well aware of these minorities aggressive expansionist agendas towards Igboland, you know they know that being part of Biafra will make their expansionist drive difficult, so they vehemently reject Biafra while working secretly to annex parts of Igboland. This make these groups our existential Enemies, yet you keep bringing out ridiculous maps with them in it?
What exactly are you lots hoping to achieve with the delusion of multiethnic Biafra? Who bewitched you?

You are only good for doing " nwunye di" . If your likes are Igbo leaders then Igbos are finished. Minorities wouldn't even need to fight you. All they'll need is to send their so called delegates to more Igbo communities, stare up your emotions and you'll end up branding the Igbo communities rotten tomatoes. Efulefu nationalist!

You lack even common sense, that's why arguing with you can be exasperating. Common sense should tell anybody who is not dense that identity crisis was implanted by redrawing of political boundaries and subsequent change of focus in Identity by the new Igbophobic establishment and it can only be solve with same. If you were not foolish and truly want to liberate Igbos, then why Igbo language is not made compulsory In most of Rivers, Why History is not taught and why Rivers state govt once attempted to supplant Igbo language with Ibani in bonny and Opobo, who killed Obi wali? etc are questions that should bother you not your silly, senseless and endless rants.

Pazienza aka igboid aka goatgoat23 you are at worst being hysterical and at best
giving the ijaws too much credit. And even more stupid for taking on Ipob. Everyone knows Ijaws are aggressive and expansionists, not just to Igbos. They claim coastal Akwa ibom, Rivers, fight in Delta with itshekiri and urhobo and also fight in gelegele edo and ondo.

They have always had that mindset, only that the civil war defeat of Igbos fulfilled their fantasies, encouraged and made them bolder in their expansionist quest. Gowon created Rivers state in the minorities' own terms. Any town they pointed, it joined their new state and any one they renamed, FG would rebaptize. That's how Obigbo became Oyigbo, its Ogoni name and PH towns' names became rumu from Umu. Ogonization and ijawnisation became policies after the civil war. That's the prize of loosing the war! It can only be reversed if we get Biafra!

But you don't see it that way. you believe it can be reversed by throwing banters and hysterically writing epistles. You are even hating on Igbo communities who are a victim of these post civil war policies. It sounds like you're beginning to hate ndoki too. You claim IPOB is not doing well, Who recognized and joined the Igbankes into Biafra struggle? who always denounces Oyigbo and always uphold Obigbo as the name? Who is the First major figure to reinstate Igwuocha as the name of PH? He did it while you're busy saying that Ikwerres should be excised from being Igbo, how dumb can a so called Igbo nationalist be!
who joined Igbos from Benue into Biafra struggle? who always denounces politics of Identity in Rivers state and fired up Igbo nationalism among them? That's Nnamdi KANU

He is the greatest Igbo nationalist in recorded history. You are too emotional and not mature enough to discuss such delicate issues talk more working on them. You are only good for doing "nwuye di" with Ijaws and Igbophobic Igbos of the so-called SS. Your type is dangerous for Igbo nationalism.

SmartPolician:
Opinions are like assholes; everyone is entitled to one, including you.

That's exactly what I expect you to say when you become dense and lack points to make.
