I believe Pa Edwin Clark should understand that the 1960,1963 constitution is basically anti Ijaw and anti Niger delta in itself! the 16 point demand has never been imputed in that constitution.
So my advise is not the advocacy of reverse to a 1960,1963 constitution that is anti minority!
there is a lot of injustice that is against the ijawitshekiri,urhobo,ikwere,ilajes,efiks and ibibios with other Niger delta communities that need to be addressed such as education of Puppis that are in those primary communities where exploration occurs,healthcare facilities, and unpaid levees to the state and LGA of operation.

ChimaAdeoye:
Hehehehe ....lol

Joe Igbokwe is an intellectual?.

I remember another one called Pini Jason that claimed to be a guru on June 12 just because he wrote an article on Abiola and IBB friendship before the election

These newspaper commentators always over rate themselves.

NK should just ignore the riffraff

Let those who said Biafra cannot stand come out and give their reasons. Not beer parlour thugs as Igbokwe or Orji Kalu

DONSMITH123:
Former Abia State governor, Orji Kalu, on Tuesday received the leaders of the Coalition of Arewa Youths led by its chairman, Shettima Yerima.

The meeting held in Kalu’s house Tuesday afternoon.

Kalu shared what was discussed on his Facebook page.

He wrote: “It is the same group that made the Kaduna declaration in which three months quit notice was given to the Igbo living in the North. The quit notice has actually been a source of worry to me because I knew the commitments of our people around the world not to talk more of being economic migrants in nature.


“The unnecessary uprising caused by the quit notice inundated me to call them to order as nothing is too much to be sacrificed for peace. I believe the actions of these youth were borne out of frustration and I am happy that they have promised me today that they will further consult to sheath their swords and denounce their declaration.

“Today, they have given me their word of embracing peace and maintaining that no harm shall befall any of our people in the North. I believe in a united Nigeria where fairness, equity and justice are instituted. I also believe that our lives are sacrosanct and no Igbo blood should be spilled at any slightest provocation again.”

IgboSubmarine:
Why are you bothered.


Let's see how the votes of 10,000 people will be used to declare a contestant governor in a state that has 1 million registered voters 4 years ago.


Obiano should go and sit down


November 18 will be Ofe Nsala and Oha day

Hehehe, this one resurrects this moniker whenever he wants to do "We SS", "We ND".

Aldrick how far with your Radio Niger Delta?

- Annkio Briggs called for a
change of Nigeria's current
structure

- The activist said the north was
benefiting than the rest of the
country

- She noted that the northern
region was contributing
nothing to the country

Annkio Briggs who is an
environmental activist from the
Niger Delta has lashed out at the
current Nigeria structure that sees
the north benefit more from
allocation sharing.

In an interview with The Punch,
Briggs noted that the north was at
an advantage over the rest of the
country due to having more states
and local government.

She said: “Today, we have a 36-
state country with six geopolitical
zones. The North has 19 states; the
South has 17 states. Looking at
that, you have a situation where
the North has more senators in the Senate and the South has less.

“What that means is that, if there
is a bill that will be in the favour of
the South, like what happened
with the Petroleum Industry Bill –
there is no way that PIB would
have been passed if the North said it should not be passed. In the
North, you have 19 states, 419
local government areas, 58
senatorial seats and 191 House of
Representatives seats.

“The South has 17 states, 357
local government areas, 51
senatorial seats and 169 House of
Representatives seats. So, if the
Yoruba, all the ethnic groups in
the Niger Delta, and the Igbo who are members of the National
Assembly agree on anything that
would benefit their people, and
the North say no, the North’s
position would be upheld.

“We have six zones; all the zones
must have equal number of states.
You cannot have a situation where
census was done and a state like
Kano insists that it is more in
population and therefore it must have 44 local government areas,
but Bayelsa has only eight local
government areas.

“When you have allocation that
is shared based on the number of
local government councils, you
would find how unjust the sharing
is. The North, in terms of oil and
gas, produces zero.

“Yet, when we share based on
local government allocation, the
North gets 54.9 (per cent) of what
we bring to the table. We (South-
South) that bring 100 per cent get
45.1 per cent. Of course, it is injustice. When you go by state
allocation, the North gets 57 per
cent of 100 per cent that they are
bringing zero per cent of, but the
entire South is getting 43 per cent.

“In the allocation of oil and gas,
the South-South brings 91.54 per
cent, the South-West, that is, the
oil in Ondo State is 3.97 per cent.
The oil in the South-East is 2.75 per
cent. The North-Central, North-East and North-West brings 0.00 per
cent, and yet, they take home
more.

“Somehow, people are able to
overlook this and focus on the
Niger Delta Development
Commission that the government
owes, and focus on Amnesty and
the Ministry of Niger Delta.

“We are saying, ‘Let go of the
amnesty. Let go of the NDDC. The
Ministry of Niger Delta, let go off it.
The North-East Development Fund,
let go of it. Let go of every
palliative. Let everybody use what it has.’ That is the only justice
that we will entertain now and pay
tax to the Federal Government”
