I thought they said all countries that broke away are total failures

okuko

We know what you guys are up to

Have you people allowed press men to at least show one Nigerian on ventilator.

we only hear audio figures every day with all the billions donated by WHO, Individuals and EU

And they will say IGBOS are not united

Nigeria should just allow Igbos go.

But can they? There will be economic collapse. Commerce and retail sector will collapse

Ok

j1mmy:
NIGERIANS NEED TO GET EDUCATED ABOUT THESE NEWS, THESE ARE MOSTLY IGBO DRUG DEALERS, WHO FLED INDIAN DUE TO POLICE AND OTHER VISA ISSUES - Don't let the word "Nigerians" confuse you!

Thousands of IGBO drug dealers are being killed and mistreated in India (for example) while Nigerian diplomatic missions, Diaspora commissions and other agencies describe it as Nigerian problem and everyone starts to panic.

Thousands of mostly IGBO criminals and miscreants started walking around China (during covid-19) and were thrown out of hotels and apartments, the world and Nigerian media described it as "CHINESE RACISM AGAINST AFRICANS"

I can see how your bank account recieved alert of billions after you cooked up and fabricated this well scripted lies.

Why is it that people who have never been to Ghana will jump on to international affairs and blow lies with reckless abandon.

Get a life. Igbos are not your problem. they are not the reason no reasonable person in your poverty stricken family has made it.

If Igbos start campaign they want to leave your country, you will open 10 avatars and campaign for one Nigeria. Mpama

ok

Egypt held Israel for 400 years. When its time. Umuchukwu shall be free from this unhealthy union

Talkertive

This is a lesson to be taken seriously

A PARTY CONFUSED -APC

Interesting days ahead.

Presidency will never support anything that has link with Tinubu

Interesting

You have a clueless CBN governor who is supposed to be a monetary policy expert but because he represents Jim Ovia and Buhari with canals, Nigeria is in ruins.

You have a minister of finance with no previous pedigree, no expertise in financial management of such magnitude. We gave her finance. All they do is pass files for her to sign.

You now have a president who promised to fight corruption and use recovered money to fix economy but all na wash.

We never chin chun chi. My savings since 2015 have been in Dollar and pounds.

Only Buhari and his family are doing well. Pic speaks for itself

Excuses every day. since you know can you and your boss get your asss up and work

Igbo amaka

You can die while trying than allow Abuja determine your destiny.

Try, Even if you fail, you fought like a man

Oshiomole is a man of double standard. Ize Iyamu he called thief is now his best friend and possible candidate

Those of you saying Obaseki should not fight for his right are cowards. i will rather die trying than fold my hands and allow a man in Abuja determine my fate.

Ok

Good bye Dubai, Good morning American prison

This guy represents everything that is wrong with Nigeria.

We idolize and worship money in Nigeria. He had millions of Instagram followers. People who revered him, saw him as an epitome of success.

A lot of shady Young Nigerians are on social media brandishing their wealth, oppressing the poor and using our girls as intimacy gadgets.

No one cares how the money was made. If you dare ask, they tell you to shut it because you are envious.


Dont envy anyone. Work hard and be contented.

at the long run, our decisions bring us joy or sadness.

life is about decsions.

i wish her and Anjola well.

This is one of the most useless ministry in Nigeria.

No national carrier, no awesomely looking airpot.

unfortunately, this is the nephew of Buhari who knows nothing about aviation

Anambra deserves an airport.

They do a lot of manufacturing in that state. they should have access to materials. if the sea wont work. let air cargo be an alternative option

This fight will be divided by Race

Sorry ooo.

Lawyers should correct me. I thought that our 1999 constitution says that every appointment in acting capacity can only last for 6 months.

A substantive head must be appointed after 6 months. if true, EFCC chairman and many parastatals have been acting for over 5 years

Only God knows what is inbetween the laps of a woman.

Many have gone through that way and many more have come out through that way

Hmmm


Ambode was the only coward that bowed to his godfather.

Humanitarian indeed

ok

ok

They should keep reaping off the masses. when they are ready they will rise against the establishment

I have been in UK for 7 years doing business. I have never been charged for debit card, Cheque book issuance or any stupid sms or account maintenance charge and all banks in UK are light years ahead of Nigerian banks.

Here, you call them you need card, they issue in 3 days with no charge.

CBN should introduce Walking into the bank charge. our people will pay and come online to rant

Pavillon:
Bro, if Nigeria should eventually break up before that year 2049, which region or new country will be paying the debt. Or will it be shared evenly among the new countries??

Could it be the reason for the inability of the different regions of the country to go separate ways or even a mechanism to keep the country together??

If Nigeria breaks. debt will probably be written off as it will be none performing loan

Anytime I discuss with people and say that an Oduduwa Republic will have more advantages to succeed as an independent nation, they ask me for reasons. On my wall and inbox people asked me the same question when I made that post yesterday about Igbos being those who feel most confident of succeeding as an independent country.

Here are the advantages the Southwest has:

1. The Southwest has direct and wide access to the sea through Lagos, Ogun and Ondo.

2. Even though there are small non-Yoruba ethnic groups like Egun, Ilaje, etc in the Southwest, the Southwest is homogenous. Yoruba is the key ethnic group. Even the non-Yorubas speak it and use Yoruba names. So there will be less conflict on language.

3. The Southwest already has a functional seaport.

4. It already has a functional international airport.

5. The Southwest already has all the multinationals in Nigeria within its domain.

6. It already has all the embassies/high commissions within its domain.

7. It already has the biggest commercial city (Lagos).

8. The Southwest is not opposed to education, modernity, technology, etc. So it will have no problem joining the progressive world.

9. The Southwest is success-driven and competitive. So it will always find ways to make its land better.

10. The Southwest is very religious-tolerant. Even though Christianity and Islam are virtually of equal population among the people, the Southwest does not practise religious extremism.

11. The Southwest has wide, fertile land for agricultural production, industrial estates, game reserves, recreational parks, etc.

However, in all my discussions with friends from the Southwest, I have not seen any zeal from them on the issue of having an independent Southwest country. It is not seen as the focus of the Southwest.

What I have heard and seen as a dream in the Southwest is to have a kinsman from a political party endorsed by the Southwest political elite like the APC (like Osinbajo, Tinubu, Fashola, Fayemi, etc) as President of Nigeria as quickly as possible. Then there is a second group that wants restructuring of Nigeria as the solution.

Each ethnic group has what drives it at every point in time. The Igbos don't have some of the advantages the Southwest has. But the Igbos strongly believe that their lives will be better, safer and happier when they have their own independent country. The Igbos believe that given the way Nigeria has been going, staying in Nigeria will deny them the opportunities to reach the height they dream about. It is like what happens in companies. One employee will dream about becoming a director or CEO of the company, while another will dream of exiting to start his own company, believing that he will surpass his present company in due course. Whether it works out for each of them like that is another kettle of fish.

Then there is a second Igbo group that believes that Igbos' best interest lies in a restructured Nigeria.

Before independence, Igbos were the strongest apostles of the one-Nigeria mantra. No prominent Igbo person wanted a separate country outside Nigeria. Even Ojukwu was an unapologetic apostle of One Nigeria.

While the North and West were always talking about exiting Nigeria or adding clauses in support of exit, the East wanted a united Nigeria with no clauses. Why? The Igbos believed that with the exit of the British, the new nation would present opportunities for the survival of the fittest. They believed that in such a contest in the public service and commerce, they would excel. However, the ethnic-based massacres of 1966 and the silence or tacit support of the massacre by most Nigerians shocked the Igbos and made them want to get out of Nigeria, because they felt that it was obvious that they were not wanted in Nigeria anymore. They also no longer felt safe in Nigeria.

That attempt to leave Nigeria was resisted, leading to the ugly War. Having lost the War, the Igbos returned to Nigeria with the desire to help in building a new country. However, Nigeria has increasingly remained a land where things are not done on merit, a land of crushed dreams, a land that gladly destroys itself and its citizens, a land of ethnic pettiness and weird reasoning. It has been frustrating the Igbos, and they feel trapped in a hole where they cannot exercise their God-given talents in full. So, ruling Nigeria is not their ultimate dream, as it is obvious that it will not give them the expected opportunities for self-actualization.

It is like when an employee of a company has a burning idea and he is being enticed to stay on with higher salaries and positions. That idea will continue to burn in his mind until he goes out to bring that idea to fruition.

The Igbos don't want to fight a war. They believe that living together as citizens of Nigeria is creating perennial friction among the peoples, leading to deaths, backwardness, poverty, anger and quarrels. And that is not their idea of having a country.

The North is getting ready seriously. Every futuristic person knows that Nigeria will eventually break.

Did you know Buhari went into the debt market via DMO, got N391 billion ( $1.03 billion )in May 2020 at a rate of 11.2% between 5- 30 years?

Did you know by that move in May 2020 Buhari has indebted your unborn kids to the tune of $1.29 trillion ($3.4 billion) by the end of 2049?

Did you know from January 1 2020 -May 29 2020, buhari has borrowed a total of N1.2 trillion via the Naira bond market and indebted Nigeria to the tune of N4.05 trillion ~ $11 billion by the end of 2049?

Did you know Nigeria now owes some investor $11 billion ex inflation, devaluation over the next 30 years on bond allotted between January and May 2020 ?
