Conner44: Igbos are far outnumbered in the federal and green chambers. North has more seats followed by South west then south south before the south east. The wickedness of the Gowon administration skewed their representation that way to weaken their power whenever the day comes when igbo leaders will be united in pushing for a Biafra state.
So in my opinion igbos should not bother about going to the federal government to ask for Biafra. Let them keep minding their business and allow all the other tribes to rule till either nigeria gets better or gets worse to the point that even the people who have their brothers as presidents get fed up with their leaders uselessness and push for a restructured nation by themselves.
I love what you said but remember, there are expansionist neighbours nearby that want to annex Igbos and change everything about them, there is an Empire/Kingdom that need Igbos to make historical rebound.
There's a genocidal set too that want to crush Igbos completely, only NK knows better for now.
Bigkoko: The Nigerian middle rank cadre is peopled by Middle belt people in almost all the sector in the civil service. What stops them from telling about their plight....
We Igbos are tired of working as the tribe that points out bad things.
If they can't tell their stories, they can at least sleep and allow the allahic adherents murder them in the dead of the night!
We Igbos wants out of this federation, either fully or partially!
We want full or partial autonomy that would allow us build Railways, River ports etc across our region. So far, you can not build a region wide rail system without the federal government. We want our system where billionaires of Igbo extraction can bring innovations they see abroad and replicate same in Igbo land. What other people desire, honestly should not be our business!
We're both Igbo Nativist/Conservatives, letting me give you a run down of Igboland in the last 533yrs.
Slavery started in 1490s and ended in 1860s, Bight of Biafra account for 12% of total African Slaves in the whole world (Igbo Landing at Dunbar Creek, Georgia🇺🇸) points to our continued resistance to Slavery. That's 366yrs of Slavery.
British invasion in 1890s led to the Ekumeku Resistance War for 31yrs (1890 - 1914) against the British.
British colonialist raped our resources from 1914 - 1960 (46yrs) through Enugu-PH rail line.
Civil War destroyed and squandered 2½yrs from us (1967 - 1970) which wiped out almost 3million Igbos and Igboland was balkanized into 13 states in the Nigerian System (with some areas almost being Annexed by some political Ethnicities).
Attrition under Nigeria 🇳🇬 has lasted 53yrs and counting (1970 - Date).
2023 - 1490 = 533 fvcking years.
The Igboman has not rebuilt himself from disasters after catastrophic years of disasters.
To those who think they know us and can pass judgement on us, we're only watching.
franchasofficia: So because Plateau state experienced chaos under Obasanjo, Yaradua, Goodluck, Buhari and now Tinubu, there should never be an effort to stop future chaos? So we must abandon Plateau and Benue people to their fate until they are completely wiped out?
Honestly, its heartbreaking how you Yoruba youths of today reason just because a Yoruba man is now the President.
Nobody is blaming Tinubu of causing the chaos in Middlebelt, it's been there before Tinubu came to power, but we are looking out ways to stop the continuous massacre of fellow Nigerians by ethnic terror groups claiming to be herdsmen.
There is nothing bad in exploring ways to make Nigeria work for everybody.
You Yoruba youths should stop being ridiculous and heartless in the name of foolish politics that isn't even favoring you guys individually
I think you and I have never shared same political viewpoints but on this I stand with you.
Igbos are supposed to be rejoicing because of what Gowon-led FG did but Igbos are still extending empathy and support to them.
Bigkoko: I'm sure the murder of over two hundred people; women, men, kids & the aged in Plateau State is fun or politics to you!
May that chaos visit you and your likes, since you swobs love swimming in bloodshed, violence and terrorism instead of peace, rule of law, Development and prosperity!
Taqiyya? Do I look like a head slammer to you? I'm a Messianic Jew in case you need to know! We tell it as it is!
If you really read my post, I emphasised on the Plateau Issue to be dealt with before talking about Igbos and their Biafra Aspirations.
Talking about Igbos right now will only divert attention from Plateau Issues and soon everything goes forgotten.
I responded to the Submission of the Northerner, not directly you.
Bigkoko: We come in Peace and we shall support all initiative that's would bring peaceful coexistence in Nigeria. ~ Bigkoko Group Inc.
• Allow the Igbos have a country of their own! • I choose my people; Fulani, over Nigeria! • We are closer to our people in Chad, Niger, Cameroon than Igbos or others in Nigeria! ~ Tukur Danmuazu.
Read for your selves. No need to continue with a failed experiment, while keeping it going with bloodshed for More than 100 damned years!
As a continental Business Group, One of our CSR goal for Africa is lending a voice to persecuted, marginalized & discriminated ethnic groups in Africa.
In line with Specific CSR Mandate, we shall have a symposium in Amsterdam Netherlands in May 2024 to Garner global support for our efforts at ending bloodshed and conflicts in Africa.
This is a funded projected, so relaxed and be happy for it! Participants are welcomed from all ethnic groups in Africa to voice their support. Plateau, Benue State & MB minorities should take advantage of this event and prepare a representative that would grace the event, no be to dey allow others speak for una. Make una too talk una self.
What I will partly focus on in 2024~ as part of my contribution to sustaining Democracy, rule of law, justice & fair play in Africa is supporting a return to Regional Govt in Nigeria.
Main goal: A loose Federation having, a weak center focused on, defense of the federation from external aggression and strong regions focused on regional economic development, all laws & norms affecting the each will be fully decided by them up to the Apex Justice system. No more a scenario where a Christian or Sharia judge determining what happens in the north or Igbo land.
Issues affecting two regions at once would be determined by a federation law enforcement agency~ akin to something like the FBI, lower - Apex Court system.
All regions will fund the center from it's proceeds, which would be audited by a federation agency. Federation would be made up of one president rotated amongst the regions and four or five Vice presidents representing each regions as the case may be to decide it's business.
We are banking on using the same framework that brought peace to Europe after thousands of years fighting amongst themselves. This framework would bring Peace, Cooperation and Development to the territories called Nigeria.
In the Nigerian context, we are in support of Four or five strong Regions: Yoruboid, Igboid, Hausa-fulani and/or, with an Amalgam of SS minorities.
Within this framework, no body go talk of dominance of each other. If una get oil, gas, minerals or cash crops use am well, if una like allow fellows like Asiwaju, Ibori, Orji, Wike, maina, etc rule una. Na una cup of tea. You see how the Schengen Zone be, na so we dey Plan am.
All the minerals found in each region belongs them, and they contribute a derivative of 20% monthly to the Center. On the revenue from offshore, it's a 50-50 share formula, the region would retain 50% and hand over 50% to the Center.
There shall be Only one Army, Navy, air force ~ the Federation army.
There shall be only one legal tender ~the Naira.
There shall be only one Reserve Bank ~ the CBN.
There shall be a Federation anti corruption, police agency that investigate cross regional crimes.
Each region can Develop its own digital assets and tenders for regional trading, but once it affects cross regional trading, you must get the naira or other acknowledged FX.
Each region would have it's own anti corruption agency (looks like we all understand corruption differently), justice system, police Force, civil norms. The federation passport would also Mark out which region you come from based on proper information gotten from the Holder, so that if your region is known for frauds, drug peddling, lies, forgery, prostitution, terrorists etc, it will not affect the issuance of visa or travelling for other Nigerians.... hahahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 With this no region would suffer unjustly for harm caused by other regions!
All the Igboid speaking tribes would be segregated, grouped and amalgam as a Region. Same with the yoruboid, merging with the Itsekhiri of Delta state with them. A supervised Referendum will ratify all these.
If you want to turn your region into Islamabad or Tora Bora Bora regions of Afghanistan or Iran, good for you!
If you want to turn your region into Dubai, good for you!
If you want to turn your region into Taiwan, good for you.
If you want your region to excel in exporting terrorists, good for you!
If you want your region to be perfect in exporting Adeboye brand of Christianity, good for you!
If your region is good at exporting drugs or prostitutes, good for you!
If your region is good at frauds, good for you! Your crimes won't be a problem or other regions having a burden of guilt by association!
Nigeria debts would be shared and given to all region's to pay according to the projects or planned projects such loans or debts were designed for. For example, all the debts accumulated by Buhari during his eight years, 80% of it would have to be paid by the Hausas Fulani & Yoruboid regions since 80-90% of the projects were actually planned or located there!
Any or all collaborative projects between the regions must be subject to a referendum for the people to decide if they need such.. just like it's done in Switzerland or UK.
A Govt led by people; one sanctioned for drug dealing and the other alleged to be one of those who founded Boko Haram can not be trusted with the fact of over 200 million people, whose lives are daily been cut short!
Congratulations to those G-d blessed with life to see a New squeaky clean year 2024.
Bigkoko ~ Discover Africa with us!
Taqiyya! Deception at play!
Stop lamenting and drumming up issues that are only imaginary; Plateau State are in serious crises for years and you want to care for Igbos?
Good one, you will not succeed with the gaslighting.
MrPresident1: Nigerians always look forward to a new year with hope and expectations that things will get better, an improvement in social and economic standards, improvements in livelihood, improvement in lifestyle and general standard of living.
May God make 2024 a better year for all Nigerians. May it be a year of joy and endless good news, a year of blessings and prosperity, a year of abundance and surplus, and a year of health and vitality.
May the LORD send his anointed to come and save his people.
Only the LORD'S Anointed, the one he has chosen to lead us, can save us. A leader and a judge in the frame of Moses, Barak, Jephthah, Gideon, Samson, Samuel, David. This is the Leader that will restore light to us and remove us from darkness
Judges 2:18 And when the Lord raised them up judges, then the Lord was with the judge, and delivered them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: for it repented the Lord because of their groanings by reason of them that oppressed them and vexed them.
HenryWilliams: The moment they do that the Nigerian Army will swoop in and finish in public what they're doing in secret. The moment they bear arms and fight the Fulani terrorists fire for fire, the govt will intervene. Gana comes to mind. Fighting Fulani terrorists is akin to fighting the Nigerian Army..one and the same
No it isn't.
European Union today is a form of recognition and recreation of Liveable Economy for every European but political States are managed along ethnic lines.
Europeans faught their own wars and settled their own issues violently, when Gowon/Langtang Mafia was bombing the East, they had support of everyone else.
Now, they need to broker alliance with any region that can help and destroy your enemy.
Statehood is always not static from my experience, it's a state of continuous improvement and negotiation of relationships between social characters in the state.
mdokaba1: As a son of the plateau soil, a prominent statesman cum former General of the NA, more than a conspiracy of silence, we from the plateau expect more from "our slumbering " former General.
Where are you, Gowon? Speak up!
Shebi he is warlord that invaded Ogoja, Republic of Biafra in 1967, dem dey invade him own territory now.
gidgiddy: Thats what the authorities do, they arrest and accuse IPOB members of all sorts of things, charge them to court, delay the case as long as possible, only for the courts to declare that the authorities have no case
Then the IPOB members are released only for them to hate Nigeria a thousand times more than before they were arrested
What a country
Nigeria and Biafra be like Indonesia and East Timor/Timo-Leste.
huptin: Thanks for taking your time to do the research. A lot of people are totally ignorant of international politics and diplomacy and are always looking at it from the black and white perspective.
Nigerians will do a lot better if we take our time to carry out little searches before jumping to conclusions.
Nigerians are hardly thinking people, once food don dey, nobody cares again about the rest of life.
Krismas: Samson option cannot save Israel. Muslims have Nuke too. aka Pakistan. And Russia has promised to give Iran nukes anytime anyday it wants over this conflict. By the way, it was France who help Israel develop the Nuke. Nothing special about Israel. Till date they live on alms from America. Their so called military is wack. All the so called wars with Arabs is fake. They have been beat by Hisbollah twice in battle and now Hamas SERIOUSLY embarrassed the Golani IDF brigade, which is like their SEAL To the extent Israel had to pull them out of Gaza to bring in KFAR brigade, which are more or less group of comedians in uniform. Boys scouts! And they too will soon be withdrawn ENDING the land invasion which brought nothing but huge losses in soldiers and military tanks and transport
Pakistani nukes are deterrent against India which has kept both from going to war over Kashmir, Ladakh, Punjab (rest of it) and even Lahore.
Pakistan has it own security questions and India is that question. India get more nukes than the Paks.
In the Middle East, Samson Option is a great advantage for Israel.
huptin: For those nursing the dream of Israel's defeat note this :
1. Israel is a nuclear power with over a 100 nuclear missiles and enough plutonium to produce thousands.
2. Israel has what they call the 'Samson option" you can Google it. Meaning rather than Israel to go down, the whole world will!
3. Israel does not need more than 5 nuclear missiles to destroy the whole Middle East and definitely not more than 50 to destroy the world.
4. America is aware of these and that's why it always quickly get involved in Isreal's affairs.
5. Iran might consider itself a military power but it is definitely not a nuclear power and Israel has vowed that rather than see Iran become a nuclear power they would rather destroy it, check Azerbaijan, it is a neighbor to Iran and an ally to Isreal, Isreal can easily launch any missile into Iran from Azerbaijan within a twinkle of an eye.
6. In summary, if this issue escalates beyond a safe threshold...the whole world is at risk of destruction.
Do not take my word for it....just do your own research.
Samson Option is a crazy option but Israel are thinkers who have individuated themselves amongst all others. They may be small but they surely know how to stay ahead!.
I just looked up that Samson Option and it's mad for them to have developed that far knowing that enemies are everywhere.
Supremos: Don't make some Agbado urchins on here make you feel Yorubas ain't wonderful people.
I have lots of lovely and lovable souls from Yoruba land.
The evil ones among them are trying to paint the rest evil
My Mannest Man is Yoruba from Ondo state too.
I wasn't accepted for a job in an Organization that is Yoruba(C) and I locked up and moved on. The guy who eventually opened my eyes that it was because of my Igbo ethnicity that they rejected me is Yoruba(M) too.
I have from North too who are C &M and I don't discriminate na make dem use sense follow life. There's life after success and the most civilised people ever have disappeared from the face of the earth.
Offpointng: Good luck. Just know each day you sleep and wake up over there exposes you to the risk of getting ur head severed by some sect of folks who sees you as being responsible for their Generational problems, under development and backwardness.
His state governor should be reached to forcefully eject him from there cuz he's clearly on a suicide mission
You that almost committed self-extermination because you don't want your own people to vote.
Ballmer: Just imagine this girl be igbo nobody go sleep for naija tonight
There is nothing wrong in rejoicing over Benin man victory. Benin is not filled with pathetic hate ruined wretched souls like your father in Ipobland. In fact it gives me greater joy that a Benin man won it.
Your Igbo father should kill himself.
Nnadozie won an award tonight, yet we're not roasting anyone for it.
Before Agba Baller, Nkwocha Perpetual was repping Nigeria, we didn't go on a slaughter spree (she won it 4times).
PornLegend: Read the topic. As for me, my own na this type of gown/dress Oh lord, if my woman wears this thing come enter room with me, I fit promise am anything I swear My brain wee kiss switch off
What about you?
You're a sick simple woman worshipper with no goals than thinking about things that has brought men to their death.
If he knows that from inception, Igboland was a place of blazing thinkers in politics, business, sports, trade, media and entertainment, banking, industries and civil service + a resoundingly strong Diaspora and fear + lazinessis not acceptable.
The number of people with degrees and international passports in Igboland is crazy because with those two, Igboland has been catapulted to far heights and its still reaping the benefits.
10trillion is smaller than what Emefiele pumped, private individuals did the pumping.
I'll pump 1billion before I die minimum into Igboland too; my targets will remain human capital, education, real estate and entertainment.
Shebi I get degree and passport, I'll recruit fellow men like me and we'll keep pumping and when we die, our children will continue from where we stopped and it continue that way.
