Igbos are not interested in dragging your Niger Delta into Biafra. We will only take back Igbo lands that were carved out from Imo state and forced into Rivers state. We will also take our people in Delta state.

I have attached evidence here.

The rest of you "We SS" can enjoy your Niger Delta.

Then u are not ready. Biafra is dead on arrival.

PREFED:
So Nigerian Military apply only to one tribe, Muslim Fulani? Do you know how many Senior Southern Christian Generals far more intelligent were by passed for the current Chief of Army staff to be appointed?

That's the president's prerogative. If u want to chose chief of army then contest for president

You people should keep championing rubbish. This is how bokoharam started. The southeast will soon turn to hell before you very eyes.

Ipob is a terrorist group. Not this nonsense ridiculous timeline u are quoting to brainwash gullible folks

Some people go choke

Reno is very stupid. Nonsense

Igbo amaka yes.

But Igbo are businessmen not politicians.

If he can make this decision without any input from the legislative arm, and even decide on his own the punishment for using Twitter, then where is the democracy,

So was Buhari protecting Nigeria when he suspended press freedom in the 80's?

That's why I asked u if that was a democracy. What law did he violate??

Sai baba

I love u bubu

awujale231:
What was Buhari's excuse in the 80's when he took away press freedom? NWO censorship?
Keep deceiving yourself

Was that a democracy

Goodbye tweeties

PROPEACE:
So Nnamdi Kanu's tweet was not taken down by Twitter? Really? Do people like you realise that it is when an account is reported to Twitter that they act? Or do you think Jack's only job is to scroll through the millions of tweets to find out the ones that are wanting? Na wa o!

That is no excuse. Ok.
Twitter must not wait for report.

I support the ban 1000%

I honestly support igbos seceding. Let them go so that they can have peace and they rest of nigeria can have peace.

Pls no Igbo should count us in niger delta as part of their rubbish Biafra. Thanks

PREFED:
I wonder if u are actually a Nigerian. For Example Take a look at the Military workforce from before the Civil War and you marvel at how Federal Character has always been on the side of Northerners.

Federal character doesn't apply to military. Read your constitution deae

BonjourATous:
I thought you would mention your personal experience but you mention "igbo head of parastatals" that you know. You will b surprised that they said what they said becos they also heard it from someone . If igbos don't want to employ their igbo brother, who do they want to employ? Is it their yoruba or hausa brothers?

Igbo people are one of the most outspoken people in the country, they don't feel comfortable around them. They prefer dealing with amargeri. GASKIYA NE!

Exactly. They rather employ other tribes

Elliotwaveforec:
If you like, no lift am! We can access twitter with operamini

AND WHAT WILL U BE DOING THERE no single govt agency dia to talk to or about

BonjourATous:
What most people feel about the igbos is what they have been fed for long. When you hear something a lot, at a point you believe it to b true, even without personal experience. What has the igbos done that other tribes haven't done or even worse? I might not agree with the way they are going about things but their grievances are very valid.

Nobody fed anything. I speak from first hand experience. I know many Igbo head of parastatals that have vowed never to employ any Igbo or easterners. If u are looking for help in govt office, the biggest mistake u can make is to speak Igbo. The doors will be slammed in your face by even ndigbi

eloquently:
Igbos blocking each other's progress? Maybe in offices , but not really true on commercial businesses. The igbos are strong in business because of the circulatory flow of business ideas and commercial system within themselves.. No tribe has such business network. No tribe helps each other within themselves in business like the igbos. A business system where they bring in young guys and train them for some years and let them get established.

Igbos have their issues, but they are hardworking and resilient.

No tribe is a saint.

But we are not talking business here. We are talking office and more specifically, political positions. If igbos will love each other, 90% of the injustice will disappear. Imagine the first person to challenge peter obi was igbos

Samunique:
Buhari doesn't have good advisors, he just shot himself at the foot.

Lol like u care

PatriciaAdeyemi:
I blame late Bari. Why start a recruitment he would not conclude? Knowing fully well how treacherous our leaders are. Leadership is never a continuum in this country. MKk simply playing god in just that capacity. What if he becomes president? Let's all go our separate ways since this unholy matrimony is just in favour of a section of this country. People without a pint of crude oil are the one running things. So annoying

It's not as if if they put your people there, then u will get any favours. Your people hate each other. Infact let me say it well: southerners (especially igbos) hate each other. Give an Igbo man opportunity and he will block other igbos from coming close to him. Let's be honest and stop deceiving ourselves. They only time igbos are unified is when they have a common enemy. It's well. Let's all work on ourselves and stop blaming tribe

Fahdiga:
We aren't expecting you to admit the truth. Qouta system lawyer

Go and contest na

circumstances:
The country Buhari vowed to keep safe. We can see how safe it is

Safety is a collective effort. Not just buhari. The earlier we realise d better

mrvitalis:
Which part is the least educated whovh part has more senators and states ?

Education is not a criteria for good governance. Most of the worst southern governors and senators were highly educated.

Here is the issue bro.. In a unitary system with two or three completely different nations, it is hard to build strong institutions. It is like asking Iran and Israel to live as one United country. It is impossible becus their ideas are completely different. Now, this confrontations will leave the politicians to act unchecked becus no matter what, humans will always align with their tribe/race more.

Nigeria's biggest problem is merging north and south under a unitary structure. That was a blunder and even some white writers acknowledged it as a blunder by the British.

There is always going to instability as the major nations will contend among them selves for political might. This will surely put politics first before good leadership.

First, North and south should not be in marriage called country but if they most be, then the system should not be unitary. There is nothing federal in Nigeria. It is pure unitary that we run and u could see tribal bitterness up and down.

Let me give u one disadvantage of this our system:

In order to avoid one ethnic group from dominating the other two major ethnic groups, they introduced federal character and quota system. These systems will suppress merit and that is dangerous in a country to even have people who are not qualified to run some things.

What we play in Nigeria is ethnic politics, ethnic politics of domination in addition to two opposing religions. That is terrible. And there is nothing u can do to fix it except u practically practice a political system that grants the ethnic groups their complete self rule while in Nigeria like the UK system. Or u practice true federalism like the USA or u separate completely.

No matter how much u try, humans, humans will always align with their tribe, race, religion, etc more. Humans are naturally selfish. What we can do is to create systems to help reduce the effects of being humans.
Nigeria is made up of two opposing religions and four major opposing nations. There can never be alignments, there can never be unity of purpose, there can never be one goal and without all these things, no country can ever make it.

If u are expected humans to naturally stop being greedy and selfish, bro, u are wasting time. As advanced as Europeans are, they are still greedy and selfish. But their greed and selfishness are mainly against other races for the betterment of the UK, Norway, Australia, Germany, etc.
Some European countries would have become unstable if they merge them together with some other European country and run a unitary system like we do here. No nation, no group of nation wants to be lord over and controlled over. This is natural.

Bro, forget sentiment, u cant put two opposing religions together plus four major nations into one country under unitary system and expect that country to grow. Lie, lie.

You are wrong. Most advanced countries of the world are multi ethnic and multi cultural. I still maintain that nigerias problem isn't it's structure, it's greed and corruption. It's a behavioural problem.

Princedapace:
Oga, the country u mentioned has strong institutions. We don't have. To build one, we need a decentralized system to build one. Our constitution is useless.

Constitution does not stop u from having strong institution. Greed and corruption does!

mrvitalis:
LMAO governor have issues but look at the root cause of the issue

The constitution giving the least educated part of Nigeria power to dictate nigerias future is not meant to grow us

Name the section of the constitution that gives such power. Or u are just vomiting roadside gossip

Femimichael99:
Don't you think what assualy course this greed and mismanagement is the faulty constitution we have.... The constitution is evil in alll dealings, it give room to all the problems we are facing now as a nation....

name one section of the constitution that is evil

Princedapace:
Oga, there is everything wrong with it. Now, states are broke. They are broke becus they are made lazy. They know that at the end of the month,they will get money, free money they didn't work for. States in the north will ban sale of beer and destroy the business but will still get VAT from the sale of beer from other states. That is madness. We run the most useless system of govt in the world. U can't make progress with such system. This has made states to be so useless and weak.

U see Governors running to Abuja to ass lick staff of aso rock which is not meant to be. President is too powerful yet he is so far away from the entire country. Makes no sense.


Some states can power their electricity but the yeye system will first carry all u generated to national grid and give u a share from there. Too much rubbish in Nigeria system.

U can't protest against President becus the region he came from will see it as protest against their region. That is rubbish. Omo, if una no throw away this useless constitution and system, in 50 years time, Nigeria will only get worse becus the population then must have become twice this we have.

if u live borrow the book of life from heaven and bring it to nigeria, the country wont change. We have an attitude and behaviour problem not constitution. There is not single section in the constitution that doesnt speak to unity. The national grid u are complaining about is what america practices. Texas that broke away from that system ended up in disaster last year. Before u start complaining about tribalism in presidency, what of the governors nko is it any different?

The problem nigeria has is greed, selfishness and innate wickedness. Not constitution. constitution is just paper. we nigerians are the demons manipulating the paper

PARACLETOS:
Everything is wrong with the constitution!
Will you force your child to become what he doesn't have any idea about? Like he want to become a doctor and you had already drawn your plan for him to become an engineer, will that your child be ever happy with you?
The Nigerian people knew nothing about this constitution, it was a back door document to oppress the people. What was in the minds of those behind it that they could not make it public at the time? It's fraudulent document. Everything is wrong with it... Our constitution is the beginning and end of corruption in Nigeria.

name one single section that is wrong
Most times people just love to chant meaningless rhetorics

mrvitalis:
There is nothing wrong with our constitution but u expect governors to pay minimum wage that FG agreed not them , with what money

Brazil , Malaysia , China , USA , Russia and many other countries develop in the mix of corruption

What a country can't develop with is lack of patriotic citizens and equity which only a constitutional review can grant Nigeria

Are u joking or u have been living under a rock were governors not part of the bargaining?
why do nigerians love self deceit

MISSCONGENIALITY:
How can you say there's nothing wrong with Nigerian Constitution. That thing should be trashed away. We need a new one not even amendment. And as we already know some people won't want a new one and won't still even want an amended version of it. They like it the way it is cos it favours them.

who are the people

rotadeco27:
There are many things wrong with the 1999 constitution, the constitution is to guide people and leaders in the society. All the issues of corruption is because the system allows it . let's the people sit and fashion another constitution that reflect true federalism or each region pathways peacefully, we can be rotating on a spot

u have not mentioned a single thing wrong with the constitution
why do we like to chase frivolities
