Lancasterman:
If the govt should leave them and not judge because its their money, why should they be fighting the govt for development again when they have blown the money?

I don't think they are fighting government ..they have the right to manage their resources and pay royalties to government and that's how is done elsewhere . to me it's consensual and commonsense

Hagm0nd:
No region in nigeria ever wanted nigeria
azikwe was the man who went to lobby the north to form nigeria
nobody is scared of igbos leaving we never wanted igbos in the first place
about religion dont your folks travel to dubai
is azikwe blind to the fact that northern region is muslim
did england curse other countries in the eu when they want to effect referendum
you hate violence but support ipob who calls for the death of other tribes

I understand your point and from your position and tone if your writing you sound very angry.whyvarw you angry ? Are you angry that Igbo want out or are you angry that Zik created Nigeria ?

The last time I checked Zik wasn't the man that amalgamated Nigeria and also I know that Igbo do not love Zik... He was a pan Africanist .

He has his position and Igbo have made their position known . what I still don't understand is why you have decided to take us 50yrs back and behind we are talking of contemporary situation and you are talking about pre independence situation... The political climate of then and now isn't the same thing

Haile Selassie the man that was in charge of then Eritrea and Ethiopian was in same league with Zik . then it was Ethiopia but today we have two different countries out if Ethiopia

Let's discuss contemporary time and not historical issues both of us were not born and we talk from third party hear say

Let us talk the ones we know now ...let's debate intellectually

Are u ready for this


No name calling pls

zikter:
and who is to develop the region when their governors and other leaders run away with billions voted and released for the region? if and when government attempts to recover such monies from the wicked looters the same victims will shout witch hunting to high heavens.

It's their money allow them to determine it..what about osun,oyo that are insolvent....

Leave them to judge not u...beside that akwaibom and cross river are in Niger Delta and they are still on point even imo state and port Harcourt

Negotiation is the key
Violence have and has never helped ..buhari should understand this

Force is always the last resort if it will ever be used

ICT is the new oil..not crude oil. The earlier we start investing in intellectual capacity the best

But we have refused to think ...even the crude oil we can't even add value to it by refining


Buhari pls take it slow ...have a chit chat with these creek boys

Nairaland says no to Biafra
Nigerians say no to Biafra
Christian East and Niger Delta says yes

The question is why are we having nightmare ? Why are we making people to feel Igbo are special ? I am just asking these questions because I am a bit confused and I need clarification on why Nigerians and so many people are scared of Igbo leaving . me personally I am indifferent and I don't care if Biafra comes or not . if it comes fine by me and I will be happy not as an Igbo but as a Christian that wants sanity but if it doesn't come ..well what can I do? But I pray for the former than the later ...

I am writing this because I was watching BBC news and the British have seen that EU membership is not benefiting them and they want out. The Britain are voting to leave Europe union not that they are special but they want to chart their own course and find their path. They have realised that membership of EU has never benefited them and they can't understand why they should be subsidising inept European countries like Greece , Macedonia, Eastern Europe countries with tons of bailout . Britain have never been particularly about EU membership... They never endorsed Euro as a currency and they never took them serious. The only country that is interested in European union seems to be Germany ..they bank roll the expenses of those country that are inept

What is this telling us...it is a lesson to black man..it has to show us that Europe is far far ahead of us..they are light years and they understand the freedom of association and right to determine their fates. Nobody is treating and threatening British government with wars and annihilation. Obama was in UK to say happy birthday to queen but used the same time to beg Brits to stay and he subtly threatened them...they called him bluff..James Cameron was so apt and point

The will vote,the Brits will vote on a referendum so to settle this European membership once and for all.

Here in Nigeria what do we get? Savegry, killing threats and whatsoever.. We have to respect and understand the concept of sanctity of life .

I hate violence and I think that the world is watching us in whatever we are doing ..life is sacrosanct ..I think feds should call IPOB for a round table

This is a call for us to show the world that the black race has evolved and we are civilised . we can't continue living and killing ourselves we have to find love and bileteral agreement and relationship . we have to be united be you Ghana , Nigerian ,Biafra, Ethiopian etc


We can at least have an intellectual debate here why we can't and why we should ...

Happy Sunday
God be with us

That's a myth. 'Natural liquid' has absolutely nothing to do with the size of a woman's derriere

Nne are u sure ? Tell me more ..j have fattened arses naturally and I bet you .


It really works! How is ur weekend d

hmmm...we (my family) bought our first car (polo) september 2015 for 350k..spent 200k on it in 2 months, never drove it for a week at a stretch...my mechanic burnt d wires in d engine November last year...now i have spent 180k to fix it...it bn a great experience for me and i wld never buy a nija used car again in my life...i dont think they are worth it.

Secrets of naija used car is check the body and interior forget the engine ..buy the car and replace the engine simple

You can trade the former engine

omaolowo:
My first car was a Volkswagen Beetle 1300 cc model. The Bettle used to come in two types: 1500 cc with large rear lights & my smaller model with smaller rear lights
It was bought from NITECO Osogbo in 1977 for a princely sum of N2,650. It was completely brand new.

Two of my colleagues (we were Assistant Lecturers in Great Ife) accompanied me to Osogbo for this historic and unforgettable event: we drove in one's car to Osogbo, whilst the other drove the new car back to Ile Ife - as I did not know how to drive. Both are today world-renowned Professors in their chosen fields.

It was from these friends that I learnt driving skills (using the serene campus roads)...
I was always being driven to town whenever it was time to buy fuel because it was this my car that I used to learn driving
By the way, Premium grade (Super) petrol was then sold at 10 kobo a litre. To fill the Beetle would cost N3 for its 30 litre capacity tank.
The lower grade of petrol (Regular) was then 8.5 kobo per litre

Na una enjoy Nigeria ...dem never born us then...my first car is a Nissan sunny American spec but started driving 505 evolution such a rugged car

Nissan is OK car but the engine smokes easily but a good car

Africandope:
how can a pastor with something called brain say God is using Kanu. Kanu that said we should live Christianity and go back to how our fathers worship. That now u swear nothing happens. Because if Bible... Challenge me and I post it's link.


That pastor must be blind to say God is in support of him. A man that lied to the whole world for no reason that Jesus was an idol

God can use anybody

And our firw father's worshipped God also called CHUKWU

We live in a society that celebrates fakeness and sees naturalness as old school. I am not into fake anything though, because I have an abundance of the real deal (minus nyash. That one na plywood)

I don't even fix weaves or put on make up. I'm 90% natural

As for the fake hymen, I've seen something called the 'Re-Virginiser' or something like that. Odiegwu

Idi egwu and odiegwu really.. Just negodu

Women won't kill us

Why the plywood ..we can fatten it up with our natural liquid that is conc

collinsVP:
Isn't Nigeria technically broke? On a serious note, FG should call a spade, a spade. In accounting, deferred payments such as tax and other payables are recognized as source of income. Hence, what FG gives to states is bail out phase 2.

You should be minister of finance ..you are better than that micro finance staff we have there as a minister

MrAnalyst:
Thanks for this. Minorities in this country don't know what their problems are. Infact many don't know jack! You seem to have a better temperament still quoting this man.

I just need to lecture them

chiefobdk:
I love where you said you do not want to be politically right.

And u meant it

Politically right in here is wrong elsewhere

Ariani:
This is what I hate. This topic had nothing to do with Yorubas, it could be explored and dissected without mentioning Yorubas, yet my fellow Igbos here couldn't resist the urge to not only bring Yorubas into the discussion, but to also denigrate them.

When they invade this thread now and destroy the thread, you lots will start whining.

Sorry...nobody is denigrating Yoruba .they brought that issue here

JusticeSeeker:
The muslim population in Afikpo, Ebonyi state alone is more than the entire muslims in Benue state.

Where in afikpo ...pls tell me...I know afikpo well.is it ohazara or amata or ishiagu


Pls tell me .cos my in-laws are from there

Ngozi123:
This op is a troll. He is trying to goad posters into laying a claim to the whole of Benue state's territory in order to claim that the Biafran agitators are greedy, power hungry etc. Now, that his plan hasn't worked, he's starting arguments with individual posters.

Don't fall for his trap.

We know and we have to make it clear to them ..so that's it

enlightenedmind:
data is why SE is alone in their fight bcoz most people cannot see d difference btw SE and d north. D same things. Lust for power, tribal supremacists, think u r better than everybody else.

U complain that u pple require "Igbo presidency". Run naa, if people like u, they vote for u, u cannot "demand" the presidency. But if u think u can trample on everybody else, look down on people and insult them and then expect them to vote for u, u must be cuckoo.

And i am not north, neither an i a muslim. Born catholic, Mbaka & Onaiyekan are family friends, Baptised in Elele. But u guys are going about this d wrong way. We all know what is happening in nigeria and most of what u guys say is true. But gra gra is not the answer.

Poor you....pope can be your family friend
Hassan kuka can be your mentor
Cardinal arinze can be your guardian
Arch bishop Obinna can be your pal
You can be the keeper of the keys to St Peter's basilica

That's you and it's Immaterial

That's Immaterial

Who is even talking about presidency ..these minorities seff..the way you reason sometimes

North have been having presidency all these years how far
Oga take your presidency
Take Abuja
Take Lagos
Take agatu
Take all the places

But leave us and our friends alone

We are fed up

And you assume that south east is alone

The protest in asaba and port Harcourt

Well I am done with you

Ignorance is bliss ...we know our friends and foes
We know who are with us and who are against us

One thing that is glaring is that MUSLIM WILL NOT BE PART OF THE PROJECT.

middle belt are not even wanted but might be considered after such a long deliberations

I am done with you


Bia.fra isn't an Igbo thing
Annangs axis are there
Igbo are there
Ikwerre are there
Ogoja might be there


That's all...any other must apply for membership like what is found in EU membership

Tallesty1:
Pray tell what delta igbo is/are and where it/they can be found.

My brother I tire

He made it sound as if Delta Igbo are different breed

listen 2 urself. how r u different from d muslim for jihad?

I am a Christian
I don't see education and Western civilisation as a haram

That's the difference between me and them

Truth is bitter Luke agbo

enlightenedmind:
Oh please spear us the self-righteousness!!! So is it only igbo opinion that will matter even if there is actually a biafra? Only what Igbo wants that is what will happen. N u guys think u are any different from the north. SMH. The SE/Northerners are the same thing. The only difference is their religion. Tribal Supremacists with an insatiable lust for power

Oh wannabe ..it's not only Igbo opinion that will matter..the Ibibio annangs and wfikswhom we have loved and lived with will also matter.we fought together and played together

But not your opinion ..yours wont matter and Muslim opinion is not even wanted

Balkan:
@op, the question should have been directed to you father but however, who do you think you are or where do you think you belong?

But to me, the only hope of middle belt to free themselves from the Northern Muslim domination is to align with the Igbos and join Biafra.

We Biafrans are already formidable. They Hausa Fulanis know quite well that the only force that has been barring them from colonising the whole Nigeria are the Igbos.

The fear of the yorubas, why they continuously will do everything to make sure Igbos don't go is the fear of Hausa Fulani domination when Igbos live.

Yoruba man is not Hausa man's problem because they can overrun them at will.

But unfortunately, they will be humiliated more if the join the Igbos because they will be second class citizens.

That's a quagmire ..Igbo are historical

They will remember the role the middle belt played during 1967-70 fiasco

MrAnalyst:
Hahahaaaa. Man you're funny. True talk though. True talk.

It might sound funny but I have to spell it out....thwrw must be decorum and that's what has been lacking in Nigeria and it will be madness to alow those that brought insanity to sire their wild cats oats here..there must be genetic policing so that e don't regret this in the next 40 to 70 yrs


It's for posterity
It's for the future
It's for the unborn


That's my position

MrAnalyst:
But wait a minute! I gave it another thought,seems your patrilineal mode of citizenship actually makes sense. Very correct! Laws will be enacted,I trust the new emerging leadership will consider this.

I am happy that you are seeing what I am seeing ..we are patrilineal and we intend to continue that way. This is for purity of genes and orientation .....we must create our own unique laws

We can't have heard orientation

babyfaceafrica:
they should go on self imposed exile?....and they are your people and family?....well that's your opinion and your are entitled to it..morning

And my opinion is the opinion of majority...and if my people are Muslim which I have not seen ..even in my whole senatorial zone I have not seen a mosque ..ID my people refuse to convert then they will go on exile

In Igbo land we always exile and ostracise people so it is not a new thing.....if you don't conform we confirm you as not part of us


Do you really know the harm Islam has done and is doing ? I don't hate people but I hate what they practise

MrAnalyst:
We need not bother about citizenship. The international standards of citizenship will most likely apply. Just stringent laws on Islam are needed.
.
cc Tysontim forget Yoruba entirely!!!

Well you are correct but the citizenship must have standards

PreyingMantis:
There are no Muslims in the South-East. Stop that useless propaganda. All muslims in Igboland are immigrants and they will be properly accomodated because Igbos are highly tolerant people.

Have you not seen the result of accommodation in Germany ,in France , in Sweden and bring it home in agatu,in mile 12 and else where

There will be a resolution on the mode of accommodation.. In short they will be quarantined not accommodated if there is any facility for that .

We don't want our 10yr old girls to be kidnapped and taken away
