if u have 6th sense, u will know that fayose is right, remove sentiment, the reason the politician always succeed in their games is because the masses is so gullible, they assimilate everything this politicians come up with, the country will never move forward from now to 100 years time, because everyone is doing the samething over the year, no matter how bad this administration is, they will still win, not based on performance, but based on the mentality of the masses and the structural pattern of this country, some times I wish am from Ghana.

the Igbo's forced relationship with south south is born out of crude oil....if the crude oil dries in south south, and crude oil is found in Maiduguri, the Igbo's will claim they and northerners are one...and again you will agree with me that Igbo's has this dominant and oppress,and that is not happening with the hausa / Yoruba not giving them such space,so they are looking for a country were they will be majority to dominate and oppress,.. there Yoruba speaking people in Benin republic, but the Yorubas are not forcing them to form a country with them..there also Hausa speaking people in Ghana but I have not seen or read where the housas claiming "one blood with".. honestly those people wahala tire me...

some element are funny, history has shown that igbos have not for one day depend on the oil to earn a living and yet they are doing wonderfully well, how many igbo own oil well in niger Delta and see how far they have gone In wealth creation, it's some element that create some negative ideas in the mind of niger deltan, that igbo has ulterior motives where as this elements are the one already collaborating with their masters to milk ss dry and destroy the fertility of their land at the process, average igbo man is not afraid of restructuring even if each region have to control their resources 100% since it will enable the ss to build the sea port and international air port will be build in our region that is what we need mostly, when ss say they want to control their resources 100% u are one of those that will cry about it yet u are accusing igbo of only wanting the oil in ss, it's ironical. igbo always have the spirit of competition, they only want to compete globally in all aspects of life with best of countries in the whole world, the only need a country that will enable them do that.

So 300 Nations?
Common ethnic group/language has nothing to do with it. Look at one of the most ethnically and religiously homogeneous countries in the world like Somalia and Ukraine.
Countries like Indonesia, Philippines, Brazil, Australia, Italy, and the US all have over 100 ethnic groups and diverse religions and they seem to be doing better. The problem with Nigeria is that you have a government that doesn't care about its people, so the common citizens are left to battle over their differences which intensify the already existing political divide, furthermore aiding the cause of those in power.

Cultural differences is irrelevant to Nation building (those barriers are only surface deep). Nation building only needs people who can unite on a progressive plan to develop irrespective of their differences. This is exactly what happened in Rwanda, a country that was torn apart by genocide that arose from cultural differences and power struggle. The Rwanda that emerged from the ashes of its past is now one of the fastest growing economy in the world with fast-growing human development.

the problem particular region claim that they are the monopoly of power and their leadership lack the proper vision to take us to anywhere, 2 Nigeria leadership mentality has been twisted, for them leadership is a game, if u play ur card well u become the master others will become ur slave, 100 years from now if the system is not reset or overhauled, we will continue to run around in circle and nothing will change.

Amarabae:
listen up dear, sometimes we Igbos take decision on an emotional ground.
We must be tactical in decision taking.
Anambra is a fast developing state and a Pride to the Igbos, remember how God used both Ngige and Peter obi to deliver that state from darkness of the mbadinuju era, these two men laid the foundation for a New Anambra and Obiano is building on it.
It will be catastrophical to watch APC take advantage of these issue and win Anambra by imposing Andy Ubah.
Nnamdi kanu saying that Anambra election will not hold is a joke taken too far.
He should leave Anambra alone.
That election must hold and a winner will be declared.

remember obiano is incumbent governor, the money is there the influence is there, nobody will be declared winner if the election did not hold at all,if it hold at all it will still be in favor of obiano, because he is paying a lot of salaries to to a lot of workers.

i sense childishness, even if obj want to come to anambra, governor obiano will receive him and even throw welcome party to him, but did that change anything. some people need to grow up or maybe u are a child I guess.

he visit bayesa and so, he came to anambra the other day and so, hmmm oh, some people don dey run mad small.

bantudra:
since i joined nairaland,i have been tormenting biafrans soytey they cried for me to join them..

but when i denied,they denied me my identity in the delta....anyways no biggy...

just keep away from the delta and i will stay quiet and watch una second desaster.....

if u are truely a niger deltan, don't have to make noise about, u can vote no during referendum, u are just one person niger Delta is too big for u to speak for all of them

baddooboys:
Dude.....you and your urobo, ishekiri, and warri brothers are not needed in Biafra...

I hope you saw the meeting held in Enugu....were Edo and delta gov. invited?

Anioma people will go with us...
But for you and your brothers, Go and join the SW...you people are just militants and noise makers....

We don't need you guys....

Get that into your skull...

from their words we shall know them, enemy of biafra

fratermathy:
You seem to misconstrue the aim of this post.

1. This is MY PERSONAL opinion. It has NOTHING to do with Urhobo or Urhobo's position on whatever and as seen in this post, I never brought up anything that implied that.

2. Whatever I may have said or done in the past has NOTHING to do with what I am doing NOW. People's opinion change due to a lot of reasons.

3. I was not a member or supporter of MEND and I have never said I subscribed to their methods. I don't know where you got that idea from.

4. Take your time and read the post again so see that this has NOTHING to do with Urhobo or even the South-South per se. It is a strictly Biafran thing and anyone can write on it (whether assenting or dissenting). After all, we all have freedom of speech, or don't we?

5. You guys really need to learn how to separate people's opinions from the ethnicities they come from. That is one of the issues my article addressed too. The voice of an ethnicity is conveyed in press releases by the apex socio-political groups and leaders of such ethnicities.

6. And this post does not, in any way, means I support Biafra now. It is only an OPINION and should be taken as what it is.

i Concore with u except that biafra Is a metaphor, It might be metaphor in the past it has move beyond that now,is no longer a metaphor,
2 nnamdi kanu didn't consult the south Eastern elder because this people doesn't know much or even care about the plight of the youth, u are still right of about him reaching to other ethnic nationality for them to be activily involve because being an igbo man, people may begin to see it as igbo stuff but am quit sure that he viewed ss and se as one.

All hail Biafra.

this is likely to be a scam mind u, Ipob have the platform they are u using to make their contribution, I think some elements are at it again with a new style.

the same people apc and pdp are all the same thing, can the ever be a true change.

Kingsley1000:
NNAMDI KANU..U SEE WETIN U CAUSE

only wrong he has done is telling the truth and opening peoples eyes

restructure the country or give us biafra is this too much to ask.

it's quit unfortunate that some don't know when to stop propaganda, we know that style.,change a style.

many will fall for this, this country seff!!

presidential campaign.

Truckpusher:
It is only a mad man from the Niger Delta that will believe that the Igbo man had/have any love for him even before and after the civil war despite the distortions in the story just for propaganda while playing the victim

The insults that greets any decenting opinion from the Niger Delta about the Biafran agitation by the Igbos is a clear indicator of who they are and what they trully are and what they can do if they have their way.The Igbos should understand that in their quest for their Biafra which the Niger delta has never been against , they must know that ethnic boundaries must be respected according to natural ethnic lineage before the amalgamation of Nigeria as anything thats looks different will be treated with the highest fucck off.And we are also aware that some slaves in the South West are also making the Igbo man's relationship and the niger Delta to go so sour by using an already bad phrase to get to our nerves. But again Igbo or Yoruba they are all the same thing - The giants that failed Africa.

judging from history there have been never a time igbos tried to steal or trying to hurt the niger Delta, the truth is when igbo punch u, they will show u their hand and tell u that I punched u, and they punch from the front, and u punch from the back when there are many people at ur victim back and they will not know who hit them. history show that u are even more closer than the core north than the middle-belt, u Ally with them and divide others to rule them. u are the one that should be fear.

IpobExposed:
I want them to know Liepods are their enemy

whatever that one mean liepods, never heard of that before, are u the one that form that one, everything is starting to make sense, lieing is associated with some element we all know about, I mean the back stabbers and their masters, they can do it to create division against those that they want to rule.

some people don't just know when to stop their propaganda.

Sweetlemon:
Very simple, the six republics or whatever you call them will simply divide further into scores of other countries.

As an ND girl I can authoritatively tell you that we are NOT united. Is it the Ishekiris and the Ijaws that will live peacefully together Let's look at my state, there's a serious supremacy battle between the Ibibios, annangs and the Oron people. The Efiks being the most powerful people in Cross River does not go down well with the other over 20 ethnic groups there. So how will an Akwa/Cross country look like?

As for middlebelt, do we need to remind ourselves of the numerous community fights going on there?
What about the Christians and other minority tribes in the core North? How will they cope with the overbearing majority of the Hausa/Fulani Muslim community?

The SW may thrive for a little while because of their system of checks and balances and the fact that they have leaders that they collectively recognize and respect. However, Yoruba communities also fight a lot, it will just be a matter of time before they start back stabbing themselves.

u have to do away with fear when u what to start new project, u present union is hell in disguise, what we want is peace and progress, there nothing like total peace, but there is set of specie that u can't just reason with

hezbollah:
my guy, If you are a biafra just focus on your issue of re location and any you join the niger delta into the affairs of biafra.you people are still learning this propaganda games

we know that we are learner and u are the master and pioneer of it, that why u guys successful create the division in the past.

the leaders u are talking about is one ethnic group that are born to rule. they have been achieving that with the cooperation of another ethnic group.

the leaders u are talking about is one ethnic group that are born to rule.

doesn't make sense, biko tell me what u mean.

some people are naturally stupid, they don't know when to stop.

IpobExposed:
I must not be Niger Deltan to care for Niger Delta

u care for niger Delta why are u going about trying to create enemity between them and their cousins for them, some elements are good in stabbing people at the back and be blowing them breeze in the front.

QueenOfNepal:
Imagine the kind of wicked Leaders we have in this country.



Nigerians are shock absorbers and we have absorb it and waiting for 2019 to vote you out.

Amaechi is a disgrace

vote who out, does u vote count. as if there will ever be a credible election in Nigeria.

I condemn the act, if it's really what happened, there will be no election it will happen without anyone harassing anybody

if it's called war, other region staying aside, Hausa and Fulani is no match to the igbo,but war has not help anyone but rather more trouble.

Joeblack01:
My dad and mom came to jos as far back as 1953 though my dad is late, my mum is still in jos till this day.

The gave birth to all their seven children in jos and we all grew up there. I left jos to port Harcourt at the age of 28 years so am more familiar with the life of a northerner.

Their friendship is conditional
I will never forget how my of my younger brothers and three cusins were killed my their so called northern friends in jos 2001 crisis. They paid the ultimate price for trusting their northern friends and neighbors of over 20 years with their lives only for them to be bunt alive by the same people they went to for protection.

jos is middle belt people in that area are civilized we are refering to core north.

there Is an extent u will push a goat to the wall and it will start biting, I rather die standing than live on my kneel, all of us will die but once. a dead person will not die again. i pray it won't come to that.

am very sure that some elements that claim different ethnic nationality depending on the thread are whom u are replying, they have all become niger deltan now in order to sow their seed of discord, ignore them cos that's what they know how best to do.
