I totally agree with you and understand where you are coming from. If we were forced to make a choice, they are the only ones we can trust.

Exactly

obowo69:
As much as I like the Akwa-cross people, I think its time we let everyone chart their own course. We can work out economic policies with them in the future. But let everyone go and govern themselves.

I am not saying that they should be coerced to form a confederate state with us but I am making reference to our only true allies in this jungle. They are better than the so called Igbo brothers across the Niger. They have been our ally through thick and thin right from the days of Arọ confederacy till now, they have never disappointed us. So if there is a chance that we need another ethnicity to form a confederate state with again, all my votes will go to the good people of ibibio over any confused Igbo

Kudos to which Buhari?
Did Buhari create River Niger?
Did Buhari construct the port?
Please no Nigerian whatever deserves thanks for allowing us to use what is rightfully ours

obowo69:
He should stop including non Igbo south south people in his biafra dream and most Igbos will be fine with him.

That is the version of Biafra I dislike, I am fully in for a full Igbo state ( Igbo bụ Igbo) with the name Alaigbo excluding ikwerre and the confused people of Delta State else we will inherit Nigeria confusion and stand chance of being denied, sabotaged and insulted like in the late 60s. But if there should be need to include another ethnic group, it should be our old and trusted ally ibibio and some ethnicities from Akwa - Cross and they must have their own state while the Biafra will be run as a confederacy

Nigerians should wear it as a badge of honour. Their dubious ways have gained international recognition

SLAP44:
Whatever Nnamdi kanu is doing to these people, is working

That is why I say that, though I don't key into Nnamdi Kanu's ideology (especially the Jewish ancestry part) and version of Biafra , the young man's commitment to the welfare of Ndigbo and our current renaissance cannot be overemphasized

obowo69:
If they want, they can sing the landlocked song forever. We dont fvckin care!!!

As long as we are able to use the so called land locked river to bring in our goods, its still mission accomplished.

Hate and envy is free.
They can keep on hating while we keep on winning.

Igbo Amaka!
They say destiny can only be delayed but can never be changed. You can only delay Ndigbo from using the River Niger port that God has given to them but you can never dry up the river, move it away, wish it away or make it to stop flowing.
For those that will be here to hail Buhari please answer this question, did Buhari create River Niger?

chamboy:
Let's be honest, Igbos are very industrious and hard-working but they lack organisation. They don't have genuine intention for each other i.e. they have phobia of being together -the fear of going home if you're successful.

They lack organization and they were able to fight the colonialists for 28 years ( a feat no black race came close to or dared).
They lack organization and they were able to have a system of government known as "ụmụnna" which was more complex than the Greco-Roman parliament system and made controlling them extremely difficult for the colonialists.
They lack organization and their women were able to organize "ABA women's riot" which is an inspiration for modern day feminism.
They lack organization and they were able to withstand Nigeria, UAR and their alies (Isreal and Britain included) for 3 solid years.
They lack organization and they are able to turn parts of all major markets in Nigeria to igboland, to the extent that it appears as if one person owns the entire shops.
They lack organization and their forum "ọhaneze Ndigbo" makes more news and commands more respect than any Nigerian ethnic forum.
They lack organization but when you hear the name "Igbo" you will never see only one person but multitude.
My brother, "Igbo dị omimi" - "Igbo is mysterious", we are not like you average black men that is why our ways are confusing for you people. While average black men count their ancient greatness in number of kings they had, the Igbo man see it as oppression for one person to rule all.
Dont allow ignorance to control you, if you want to know how United Ndigbo are, come to Onitsha or any city in South East and speak English.

NGpatriot:
I heard PMB and APC also went to your village to make rain flood your village and made your sister stellah Oduah paddle canoe to reach her village house because her village was under water.

APC and PMB also flooded Anambra with rain water made obiano begged for federal help after his state went underwater.

You ipobs can be so so mentally warped and upside down ...

Wow, this Anambra picture looks like Venice. Maybe we should find a way to sustain the flood and control it so as to establish a wealthy looking environment like Venice which can also serve as tourist attraction

These people sha, I read through the post again after seeing accusing fingers on innocent Ndigbo to check whether one of the culprits is one to no avail.
Well I think it's high time we started checking these people's certificates (Yemi Osibanjo and Femi falana included) because there is no way the people I saw there can afford tertiary education.

I like this girl. She came to see things for herself, to check whether all these development stories she has been hearing about Ebonyi is true or not. Something most demented tribalistic nincompoops here that only know their immediate surrounding not their entire village and keep on howling on nairaland cannot do.
Travel and see. It is a crime against humanity to live all your life knowing just two places (your house in Lagos and lagos)

Okwyjesus:
I have not heard this side of the story before.
Do you mean it....

Of course, you can Google it. The indigenes are still ashamed of it till date

Everyday day anyi na enwe ekpere for better days
Bia appointment ha si gi come back another day
Heavy weight na ebuli any nwa bu featherweight
As long as na m ga emeli ya at last its never late
So biko don't look down on that boy n'racha plate
Maka okwa just a matter of time oga di great
Just say a little prayer, add a little faith
Kill them all with love nwanne free your mind from hate

Just the moment ina eche na things are taking shape
Ndi imi ga ezu na akuku ka ha bia bunye gi weight
But our body know how e go be
Walk in our shoes see wetin we boys dey see…

Rest in peace alobam!

You sound like jeriq, abi na your boyfriend? I never knew rap talent can be sexually transmitted.
It's like the youths are already taking their destiny in their hands.
Meanwhile I found this hilarious but truthful pix below

I just left kwara start not quite long. I know ilorin very well.

Coming from Osun state from the south - we have yoruba towns like, Offa, Ijagbo, Ajase, Erin Ile etc.

Coming from Ekiti from the East - We have yoruba towns like, Isin, ekiti kwara, omu aran, oro etc

Coming from Oyo state from the west - We have Yoruba towns like Galilee, Ogbomosho etc

Coming from Niger state from the North - we have yoruba towns like jebba.


While ilorin is in the centre of North (Niger), West (Oyo), East (Ekiti), South (Osun) , pls tell me how we will leave ilorin?
Or will ilorin stand alone as a nation?


If you've been to kwara you'll know it's impossible to leave ilorin, except we leave the whole Kwara state.

I won't argue with you on the yoruba towns you'll meet before Ilorin. Infact those towns are more yoruba than most of the yoruba towns I've met but the Ilorin own is quite different and peculiar based on the influx and establishment of the fulanis who are permanent residents of that place

Seerade029:
Why must we forget ilorin?
How possible, What about those towns around ilorin?

Ilorin is in the centre, there are hundreds of yoruba towns after it.

Just like saying Igbos should forget Nnewi or awka both are in the center of Anambra

Unless you want to share your new country with more than 100 fulani settlements. If you have been to Ilorin and Kwara you will know this, and based on international law you can't displace a group of people that have continously stayed in one particular location for more than a century. Besides I don't think the citizens of ilorin will fancy being lumped in the new Oduduwa Republic

A northerner will employ his own northern brother without any string attach.. The moment he knows you r a Muslim and from the north that's all.. Can a southerner do the same thing?
I know what I pass when I was looking for a job in the hands of a close uncle who was a former Senator.. So brother forget story...

If you want to know the cause, go and read about how Igbos were identified and killed in the North by hausas.
Prior to 1967, no ethnic group in Africa knows unity like the Igbos, but right now what the Igbos use is defence mechanism to avoid what happened in the 60s to repeat itself.
It is important to note that their new found unity is as a result of collective antagonism of Ndigbo. For the northerner to put his relative in a political position is not for the sake of love but to make sure that space doesn't go to the Igbos, go see a northern private establishment and you'll realize that most people in sensitive positions are igbos and yorubas because if things goes awry he will feel the heat direct but the case of national appointment is just there for nothing sake that is why naija is not moving forward. Once Ndigbo leaves Nigeria you'll see their real "love". The colonialists said that they met 13 warring emirs in the North and walked uninterruptedly to the sultan because of their disunity

Yujin:
My first paragraph was for you to be careful not to assume majority of Asaba indigenes reason like that. Their will always be few individuals who twist reality.
The rest of the post was aimed at everyone who might read that comment. That war was forced on us. Not fighting it would have been more disastrous for us. A fighting man if allowed to live is mostly respected but a fearful man's life can be taken at anytime because he's totally without respect.

Who forced the war on you people?
Is it your brother Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu from ọkpanam that killed sir ahmadu Bello and Tafawa Balewa?
Or Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu that tried to rescue the real Igbos race by breaking away as a result of the reprisal killings in the North caused by the dehumanizing way their sarduana sir Ahmadu Bello was killed by your brother Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu?
Please, I will like to see your answer

VEXT:
Guy that's the truth... Come to the north and see how foodstuffs r cheap esp Kano, while in the south... Price of foodstuff r too high ..Because of the love of money we have and hate for ourselves..
I'm not against breaking up, I support it also.. But we have to love ourselves... let's develop and invest in the south first.Before thinking of breaking up...

There is no homogeneous country (>70%) that is backward, check the likes of Switzerland, Japan, Russia, Singapore and so on. The love will come by force when the politician is an in-law and the security personnel is your best friends brother and you know the family house of you LG chairman. Why the love no go dey by force, by then when the state of affairs goes awry we will know in front whose family house we will protest

Biafrannuke:
it's not difficult to spot an obsessed person. One wonders why this obsession has not translated to any force of change.

I believe you are speaking from your experience of worshipping your fellow man (Nnamdi Kanu)

Yujin:
Don't be too quick to fall for his obvious ignorance. Muru akor!
Have you ever thought about the fate of Igbos and other easterners in other parts of Nigeria if that war wasn't fought? It would have been worse. Over 30,000 murdered in cold blood with hundreds of thousands injured. Millions had fled the north with nothing back to the Eastern region. Nigeria had NO protection for them. What options did Ojukwu have? Going back to the north was not an option. To make matters worst, Gowon single handedly broken the Eastern region and had taken charge of the sources of income of the East. What option was left for the Eastern region and her leader Ojukwu? Aburi was the only practical hope and Gowon failed to honour it.
History is kind to Ojukwu and Biafrans in general.
At the surrendering of the noble cause by Philip Effiong, he told Gowon something. He said that if Nigeria failed to treat the children of the Eastern region well, they will arise again. Were the Eastern region treated well after the war? No. Are we been treated well today? No. What option are we left with? FIGHT FOR OUR FREEDOM.
This is our position.

Please go back and read my post again and ask yourself whether this your response was in line with it.
My brother I am not against freedom, after all Ndigbo were never part of Nigeria to begin with (check the name of the 6 signatories for the formation of Nigeria in 1914) what I am against is one sided story to fool the masses by the shameless people of asaba. If they want to write about the asaba massacre, they should and must include the part where they wore white to dance and celebrate the Nigerian forces for liberating them from Ndigbo and tried to convince the general that they were not igbos before the general ordered for the execution of all the male dancers which unfortunately were almost all of their male population

horsepower102:
Well you will never know what I am talking about because it doesnt support your Igbo attache narative.

The truth is that most Igbos who are sick and tired of Nigeria and are not interested in forming a nation with non-Igbo south south. They wish you all the best with your niger delta republic.

We just peacefully want our republic of Igboland or whatever name we decide.

All we want is Alaigbo, simple. Anything more than that is another Nigeria in disguise and one group will always accuse the other for their woes while the elites will use the ethnic distrust to promote corruption and backwardness

VEXT:
Don't care about your igbo nation ...what I want you to know is that, the south south r not your enemies...You guys r your own enemies..Develop your region before thinking of breaking up... Instead of going to the the west and north building factories and big shops.. While the east is filled up with only hotels...

Remind me what Las Vegas and Dubai is filled with

Biafrannuke:
The op of the thread is the same person as horsepower102 and is still same as bkayyy and proeast

He is one jobless, SS Igbo-obsessed fool called pazienza aka Igboid.

Ipob tout, you think everybody is a jobless as you to be creating more than one nairaland account to be spewing rubbish
