south south(edo,itsekiri,urhobo) share the same culture with you?...HAPPY UNITY BEGGING!

an oba bears Akinolu ,cant even speak any other language apart from yoruba!,every clan in lagos speaks yoruba,ikorodu,lekki,suuru lere,ikeja...and some one is masturbating on it not yoruba....and some one just creat one non-yorubaic lagos in his head to compensate for inferiority...that is DELUSION!

and waiting concerns lagos with the discussion.yIGBOs and obsession with lagos are

and who told u we don't share the same culture: looks, dressing, religion, beliefs, food, language in some cases etc., and are only these three u mentioned the only occupants of the south south, what about the igbos that constitute about 70% of the population, how can u neglect that


badagry people in lagos speak egun, niger delta part of ondo speak ilaje, and there are ijaws in ondo state too
I mentioned lagos because u lots are doing ultimate search on those things that divide Igbo and niger delta, u are always reminding us why we shouldn't cooperate to get freedom, even though its not ur region, u lots are doing as if u have something to loose when we cooperate, doing divide and rule is stale , our generation is now wiser
what u tried to achieve with SE & SS disunity, is the same reason I mentioned lagos
so no qualms if SS and SE are begging each other to cooperate and ward off enemies

UNITY BEGGARS WITH SOUTH SOUTH

I still don't understand ur tribes obsession with separating south east from south south. ur govt has tried it geographically by splitting us even though there is no word like south south in any geography text book, that word just existed all in a desperation by the govt to divide and rule us. anyway, igbos don't mind having niger delta republic along side Biafra as far as the two regions will be free. but don't forget that lagos through the oba has dissociated themselves from the yorubas. should we now call lagos "west west geopolitical zone" instead of south west even though they share names and cultures the same way our south south brothers share names and cultures. we are happy to beg south south and not you.
mind u am from south south

sarrki:
No sire

He's going about his own business

Ipobs created a scenario that warrant our unprofessional security agencies to shoot

In a but shell

Let's all allow peace to reign

Coz of the innocent people like this young teenager

ipob created a situation! hmnm, that means igbos are no longer safe, that means igbos have only the option of staying in Nigeria or die
sarki, is this how we are supposed to live as humans. forget tribe and support justice for all
igbos want to live in peace and justice, which is what they are demanding or they break away without hurting anybody instead u lots are ganging up to hurt them. remember they have never killed anybody in this quest, just rhetorics
can u imagine everybody talking about one Nigeria and nobody is talking about justice. we igbos want justice for ourselves but we don't know whether others want same for themselves. if u dont want to fight along with us for justice, just be neutral and stop attacking us the victims.
we are the prey here and not the predators. moral wise, if u must attack its the predator

Wallade:
N. Kanu compromised his citizenship a long time ago, he has a dual citizenship already and we don't have a problem with that but we have a big problem with him constituting nuisance, violating the Nigerian constitution and creating crisis and inciting the public against the government.

If anyone is interested in withdrawing their citizenship in Nigeria, go ahead without disturbing every other person. You have senators and representatives at the national assembly who are in the best position to push for referendum.

I listened to a Yoruba man on channels tv the other day , he said "its difficult for any southerner to raise a bill at the national assembly and it scales through because they have fewer states 17 states for the south and 19 states for the north" he said more states translates to more senators and more house of reps members. and as u know democracy is a game of numbers.so the region with the highest vote advantage can easily throw away the others bill with its advantaged numbers, thereby determining ur destiny for u. so let the south demand for justice of equal states before all of u start shouting that we should go to the national assembly to table our case for referendum and others. an assembly that has been so created in a way that it will favour only one region . a difference of one or two votes matters as can be seen in their current vote on devolution of power where it was defeated by just two votes, 38 against and 36 for it

GoroTango:
Igbos are just too sentimental. The issue of Kanu and arewa youths are seperate. While those arewa youth should have been arrested long ago, it does not detract from the fact that Kanu violated his bail conditions and the FG is right in demanding his rearrest.

justice will only be seen to be done if both groups are arrested together or don't u think that in this heterogeneous Nigeria where tribalism is rife, arresting one and leaving one will mean open bias. in ur post u even said its long overdue, so why wait

omenkaLives:
Seun, Mynd44, Lalasticlala, I'd be glad if you can have this on the fp to balance the deception being promoted by the immediate past admin and its supporters.

Thanks.

all these things u put up there are just political fights between political parties trying to outwit each other and also between individuals and jonathan , organisations and jonathan that's why u keep mentioning the names of the individuals and organisations u think he wronged in your write up. remember he didn't jail anybody. but we are being threatened today with jail over free speech

but the difference this time around is that this govt is barring all Nigerians on free speech
jona picked people and organizations which is 0.0001%, but this govt policy and threats will affect all of us on free speech which is 100% of Nigerian population that will be affected

comparing what I wrote above and also to how jonathan was thoroughly abused and accused by the opposition and nobody was jailed or threatened with jail. u can safely say that jonathan is the king of free speech

Itzhak:
Whether is facebook, twitter, whatsapp instagram nairaland. The way most ipob or igbo are portraying the north as homicidal, murderers and every other derogatory words used to describe the northerners. U will know those are the ones that never left their hometowns or geopolitical zones. They only hype on what they re told, foolishly they believed. They've been taught to hate northerners from small. Their young one's or children may end up inheriting such grievances and hate for the children of the northerners. But the case of those igbos living in the north is different, cos they've been living there for years. There mind set is different, they've been neighbours friends to most northerners. We all have igbo friends here with us in the north we co-exist.hang out. So for those who vehemently believe and even saying igbos in the north will be harmed regardless of the quit notice in the north or it's withdrawal are either Shallow ,fools, uneducated despite their education ignorant bias for believing or even entertaining an iota of such thoughts

its not only igbos
find out, most southerners even yorubas when they are posted to the core north for their NYSC will start scheming for redeployment for fear of their safety. remember the NYSC members killed in 2011 during the elections

Bolustical:
What about the East? Tell me what the east contributes in terms of VAT, IGR, food production(rice especially) and crude oil. At least, these are ways we depend on each other.

Igbos are quick to tag northerners as parasites but numerous statistics have proven otherwise

Even the NE would have fared better than the SE if not for Boko Haram

I will leave it for NLers to judge who the real parasites are.

Modified: instead of resorting to regular insults, why don't you tell us (with facts), what the SE contributes higher than the other regions

but why then are u afraid of allowing them go

Funkybabee:
Though I did not support this hardship,but this is not true.at lists you have one members or family that is doing Npower and collecting money, same with mosquito nets they are sharing.
yoruba people says 'taba sekan asa sekan' ohun na gbiyan ju......(he tried his own best)same with treasure bill account that investors are gaining from it but what I dislike about him is the increase in all goods price while salary ain't increase ounje lole se jare......?

three most important things in life:
food , shelter and clothing
any policy that don't start with these three
is anti people. its like counting from ten to one
or putting the cart before the horse

Danialuone:
Dear Bishop,

I totally disagree with you,things are bad and people are suffering .But,Buhari is a blessings to this country

1. Two years is just too small to measure Buhari ,if you know from where we are coming from ($130 to $30 oil price)
2.Boko haram and insecurity inherited by Buhari is worst and He is really trying his best on this
3. Monumental corruption in the time past and Buhari is fighting them head on,what elss are we talking about
4. Fuel subsidy where Nigeria is paying $3 trillions is over.

Let us be truthful ,patience and show maturity before we rush to the press.There is nothing Buhari can,t do to re-write the history of this great country in 2years....this is not achievable and practical

Buhari is not a magician and we should hold our pass leaders responsible for all these.

Thank You

I remember u supporters were saying that we should give u one year,
one year is gone u people started saying two years
two years is gone now, even one of u said we should stone u people if after
two years things don't improve
am surprised that u people are now asking for indefinite time
any planning that lacks timing is no plan at all.
from what I can deduce for the past two years u people are depending on luck,
fate, miracle and oil price increase to perform
no large economies depend on these to thrive, they plan with time and also knows
what the outcome will be every quarter
please give us ur timing and its outcome
or stop defending a government that has not given us any plan and timing

Originalsly:
The Bishop needs to put his own house in order..... is the Catholic Church doing what it should? ...is he as a leader providing what he should for the Catholics?...the poor?....the homeless?....aren't Catholics losing faith under his leadership?....are the priests all in line?...doing what they suppose to? ... if you live in a glass house don't be throwing stones.

u are digressing. we are talking of Nigeria here, not catholic church.
catholic church is a subset of Nigeria. while Nigeria is a whole that covers
catholic church and others.
if u don't like what they are doing in catholic church, don't go, u have a choice
but in the case of Nigeria, we have been made to understand that we don't have a choice
so stop comparing what they are doing in catholic church to what is happening in Nigeria.
e no rhyme at all.
look for another defence

sokera:
Buhari as not achieve anything in 2 years , but the looting as reduce , Buhari as not achieve anything but I'm still searching everywhere to look for what Jonathan achieved for 6 years , can someone please help me to list Jonathan achievement in 6 years and PDP achievements for 16 years ?

are u people imitating jonathan and PDP?
then kindly explain the meaning of CHANGE
there should have been no need to vote out PDP
if its continuity that we want.
so please stop referring us backwards
its ur turn now to act according to ur promises.
generate ur own cash with good policies and use it
to work.

origima:
Cos am yet to see anything good about Jonathan ur God.In less than two years ,most of u thought ur mess can go overnight. Uselesssss fooooolsss everywhere

the topic is rat invasion not "come and do propaganda" for ur god . Your corruption allegation tactics against last regime is stale

SOLMICHAEL:
If everyone helps to hold the sky, then one person does not become tired. Let's make Nigeria a great country, together we can do it. When there is Unity, there is VICTORY.

God bless President Muhammadu Buhari!
God bless Prof. Yemi Osinbajo!!
God bless Nigeria!!

I get annoyed when people talk about unity without JUSTICE
whatever happened to JUSTICE
it should be JUSTICE first, then unity will naturally fall in place without forcing it

MrHistorian:
PMB's tenure might not have been characterized with the good governance,social welfare,improved security and excellent healthcare System he promised.

Sincerely,things will be way worse had it been GEJ won.

but he ruled six years and it wasn't as bad as this. what other proof do u need to know that GEJ is a better manager and ha better economic ideas with his cabinet. this ur hero ruled two years with inconsistent economic policies and fake cabinet and we are 100yrs backward .and please spare me oil price was high story because this govt is benefitting from fuel price increase, and he is not paying subsidy like jonathan, he is also gaining from recovered loot and TSA, and N50 on every deposit we make at the banks plus VAT, money he makes at the ports arising from the closure of land borders etc. what else does he need to make us happy

earldoyex:
IPOB.....simple english sef na dier problem
PRESENT BY:

I pity those lazy unemployed youth agitating for biafra. Why don't you ask your so called saviour to empower you first.
Just an opinion.

B rl.

are u supposed to use unemployment caused by the Nigerian state to laugh at them? that's one of the reasons they are opting out because the Nigerian state cant address unemployment

[quote author=hahn post=58861548]Well Islam is a rather young religion and you would agree that Christianity was also the same in it's youth giving birth to the inquisitions, crusades, slavery etc

And most of it's practitioners are very much ignorant and illiterate



at what age will they be considered ripe enough to stop violence because Christianity has stopped theirs
since you are copying all the bad things that happened in Christianity
are u even making any headway with violence in this modern world?

mpowa:
This why I feel sad for these guys, they enjoy a lot from Nigeria, yet they always want to sabotage it. I can't understand it. Come to Lagos how these people enjoy business, success and peace, but they're always hating the hosts and calling them names. Now go and form your kingdom and express all the innovations you've been talking about, you no gree. It doesn't start with a referendum, It starts with exodus, 70% of you can't be outside your region and you're saying you're serious, make the movement, some of us will even campaign for your referendum.

how can u count two before u count one. its referendum first

bankylan:
It is not by mouth...Start relocating all your your people to the east...Stop relating with Nigerian people in Lagos and Abuja and other major cities...Get off the National grid. . Get your own power, telecom, and banking services... Then build a wall or a toll gate to control access for any non Biafra that may want to come. ..destroy your Nigerian passport and elect your own leaders....Then the whole world will take u serious. Did I say you should get your own military too?......We will treat any of you that we find in Nigerian territory as illegal....This settles the whole Biafra issue.

the mother country, Nigeria should grant them independence first, then all these things u listed above will fall in place naturally
you don't count two before you count one. its independence first before all these. you just want to push them to get it the hardest of ways. is it not possible to get it peacefully? without undergoing war and these sufferings u listed above. or is it because we are black men so things must be done in crude ways

Bolustical:
What should we now do to it?

You cannot expect a Nigerian government to fund a Biafran project,

Please continue your agitations and politics of hatred,

It will speed up the actualization of Biafra,

Then Biafran Ministry of Transport will revive the rail sector.

hypocrisy is when u still drill oil from biafran land and yet cant fund biafran projects. leave our resources alone let us manage it ourselves

NtoAkwaIbom:
Most Ipobs will not see that the venue were the meeting was held was dressed.
WITH GREEN AND WHITE.
they will not see that the Seal on which Udom is talking on is Engraved with the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

They see what they only want to see, they see what their miniature brain can process.
Reality check firs... Ayade is a patriot, Wike is a Patriot, Udom sha too get sense, if he is not ripping more than u, he is not doin.

so no need to argue with low brain Ipobs

this is digression, all these logos and seals will remain as far as independence has not been granted
the topic here is the unity of the south south and south east

that's the spirit, the two regions are one, the affinity between them is much, they can hardly do without each other
thank God for this , while we forge ahead and forget those that try to divide us for their selfish gains

bakila:
I want to see loads of congratulations to INEC. PDP people please congratulate INEC, your candidate won and there is no drama. ....
... yet.

its because buhari is not around to rig order for its rigging. osinbajo will be rigging free like jonathan

rkennyking:
this has nothing to do with Aregbesola if Adeleke contested under the APC he will still win

my opinion is that Osinbajo did not allow rigging, if troublesome Buhari was around he wouldn't have allowed INEC to announce PDP as winner, it would have taken 3 days to announce the result and perfect the rigging . it would have been rigged . I don't see Osinbajo as a rigger, Osinbajo will be rigging free just like jonathan

crazysam001:
the answer is on the internet but hey you can have this. It will help

and moreso, I got information now that the asabas, agbors and kwales, ogwashi, someone even mentioned Onitsha and all other igbos in the niger delta have benin links, they are also migrants of the benin kingdom, but that does not make them non igbos, they are still igbos

Rikidony:
why will I waste my time schooling a brain dead ni.gga

then u are not a good teacher either by default or by training, so u should learn from the born teachers

by the way, what indicators made u think u are absolutely right, so u don't have to reason with people

even the bible said ' come lets reason together'

we must continue to reason together until the best comes out

crazysam001:
A man who cannot allow his next village neighbour to be his bishop is a man you follow? I wish you well in your agitations perhaps you forget too quickly the genocidal tendencies of this enemy

u mean they will kill us more than the hausas and fulanis?

crazysam001:
the answer is on the internet but hey you can have this. It will help

am a rivers man, we share border with the ikwerres, I don't know this but its informative, I will dig deep and find out more, that internet map is still hazy to me, i don't think that map is conclusive, I will now embark on one on one discussion with elders to know more. but I still wonder why they share common culture, names, religion , boundary and inter - marriage with the igbos instead of benin

crazysam001:
It is not bad to attract me but u choke me I no gree u no go find ur way go without me? Must we go go together?

no we mustn't go together, some of our people like me a rivers man want Biafra, while some don't want. the only reasonable thing to do to assuage the two groups is referendum, and that is what ipobs are asking for

MasterKim:
UK is a confederation.

referendum works for both confederation and federation. so whats ur point

or is Nigeria not a federation?

Rikidony:
shaaaarrrrraaappp and keep off my mentions

u don't have a reasonable response that's why u insult

keep off biafran mention too because am here to oppose anti biafrans
