hammerF:If i was not truly Igbo, perhaps what some people say would get to me. But all the guys that we went to CIC with, all my guys we grew up at Onitsha and we still discuss Anambra and SE progress today know that my parents were born in what is known as Anioma and i grew up in what is known as Enugu and Anambra states. These states formed me, i speak the dialect better than my hometown dialect. So, no shrimp can wish that away. My problem with SE politics is that we are too fixed at a position and thus become what Americans call "sitting ducks". Once we start saying something and circumstances change, we don't change with the changing times. We tend to stay where we are and continue saying what has become outdated by recent events. We know that Igbo will be better in a restructured Nigeria than a landlocked Biafra. Those that doubt that iam a staunch IPOB supporter can go here and read my posts: https://www.nairaland.com/cjrane/posts/23 https://www.nairaland.com/cjrane/posts/20 I started pushing for a UN sponsored referendum on the Biafra question under the Universal Declaration of Human Rights instead of our people to pick up arms. I also disagreed that boycotting elections in a country like Nigeria where rigging is second nature should be a strategy. Each time you boycott, they will simply use the opportunity to rig in the worst types of characters. If Boycott must be an option, then it has to occur in at least 13 states simultaneously. That way, the constitutional 25% votes in 24 states will become impossible to meet. Boycotting elections in just 5 SE states is political suicide by those who do not understand the 1999 constitution which we operate. My strategy have been simple 1. VOTE MASSIVELY FOR A CANDIDATE that will at-least table the issue of devolution of powers (So called Restructuring) 2. If conditions in Nigeria become unbearable, resist the urge to pick up a weapon, instead - Agitate for a UN or AU supervised referendum on the Biafra question Right now, we have a chance to make number 1 a reality. Therefore, our plan A must be to mobilize massively to get Plan A. Believe me, Plan B (#2) should be the last resort because it is not as favorable as plan A. Even though most youths think once we are in Biafra, every problem in the world suddenly disappear and we magically have $1 trillion dollars to budget every year for 10 years and build Dubai overnight. Nwanne, it won't be that easy initially and a lot of youths shouting Biafra now won't even have the patience to allow the new Biafran government find it's foot. They will be rioting everyday and want money to fall from heaven to provide everything they need. I know they won't understand what i'm saying now, but i know option #1 is our best option so far. |
globemoney01:Nwokem, Don bi silly! I lash at Obi in areas where he failed woefully and i praise him in areas as education, health and linking Anambra with roads where he achieved a feat. As for his V.P nomination, you cannot count 5 Igbo people today qualified to rule Nigeria without mentioning Peter Obi. We should learn to speak the truth when people tried their best and condemn them where they failed. Again, i will repeat it here as i have said numerous times. Not Peter Obi nor any politician has enough money to buy my conscience. I will however like to chop their money if you can give me some. As 2019, the choice is clear. Vote for Nigeria to continue to stagnate under the dullard and the massive slaughter which the herdsmen will resume once the Jan-jaweeed nomad wins OR Vote for economic prosperity and re-emergence of Nigeria that will regain it's place as Africa's most prosperous and fastest developing country.

spyder880:Congrats my dear Brother Spyder. You do and excellent job, so i know a lot of people who have seen your handiwork will like you to replicate it in their projects. Me sef, i'm working on acquiring a piece of land in Enugu where you will build some block of flats like the Obosi project. I hope you will do jara for this nairalnader by replicating those flowers in the picture. You already know that without adequate greens, even the best houses still look like a glorified prison. It is the flowers and trees that make the difference between a "Home" and a mere concrete structure. Since he had palm in the compound, if it does not get in the way, it could be uprooted and replanted in a better location or just left alone altogether. Anyway, its not my house, so i'll let the oga decide what he wants. |
OfficialAPCNig:EXACTLY! |
ckenneths:I cannot stop praising the wisdom of our parents for not letting our small landmass disadvantage prevent us from providing decent and affordable accommodation for all. If these houses were not there, Igboland will have the biggest slum in the world. Even Nakuru slum will be child's play to what we would have. I thank the wisdom of those that built and continued to build these decent mass housing flats all over the SE. We only need to find a way to provide adequate electricity power in our cities and we are set to go.

globemoney:Biko, drop this Peter Obi issue. Nobody is deceived by your antics. GEJ will endorse Peter Obi because he knows he is eminently qualified to handle Nigeria and our battered economy. Those politicians that lost in the PDP primaries and those urchins that thought Atiku would pick them are behind the effort to divide the PDP claiming they "don't like" Peter Obi. They know very well that if Atiku falls for their trick and replace Peter Obi with Chris Uba or some eediot, then the party is divided and Atiku's chance of winning is diminished .Atiku is smarter than their antics and will allow them to simply play their games with the Yoruba press until they get tired. Meanwhile, Atiku should immediately begin visiting different parts of Nigeria and traditional rulers and influential persons from each region to support them publicly. There is really not enough time to get leaders of the core north and a lot of work needs to be done in the middle belt and south-south. SW is where they should know their supporters will support them and those Buhari supporters will always support Buhari. But PDP must give SW a good position to justify the support of those who stood behind the party in yorubaland. |
ckenneths:Oga Spyder, thank you for all these pic! These are my reason for coming to NL. I just love that you relentlessly post pictures from all over Ala Igbo. Daalu mehn! |

xfactor23:Truth is that i am MORE IGBO than Chino or Abagworo. That is why their silliness does not bother me at all. |
globemoney: It amuses me when some folks say i'm Peter Obi's boy. lol... Just check out my posts in Cjrane, my first moniker and see that i applauded Peter Obi for his good works with the schools and hospitals and lashed at him when he failed with quality works. Dude, i lived in Onitsha, so i know what works and what doesn't. I have also lived in Lagos, Maiduguri and Azare. So i know the mentality of Nigerians in relation with the Igboman's way of thinking. Nigerians have realized that the Igbo thinks in the overall interest of the society. That is why Igbo build schools and roads in their villages even, when they don't live there. Other Nigerians don't care about their society, they only think of themselves. So they always find a way to make an Igboman think something isn't really the best option for his society. Once they get to create doubt in his mind, they strike knowing the typical Igboman will not fight for anything he isn't convinced is the best for his society. That is why they want to present Obi as something bad for Igbo society. |
Enugupikin:Dave Umahi is a great Governor. I would have preferred Soludo if he were in PDP. Yet, i know Peter Obi is eminiently qualified for the position. In Nigeria, there are a lot of forces out to get ndigbo to fight and wash their dirty linen in public just to discredit Ndigbo. I remember when Chuba Okidigbo was Senate President, some Nigerians ran to Evan Ewerem to instigate him against Okadigbo. I knew exactly that once that happened, he too would not last because it will be another group instigating Igbos to topple him too. The same thing happened when Nnamdi Kanu spoke about boycott of Anambra elections against a performing popular governor. I was against the boycott, but i was even more afraid of the division it could create unless our people learned to talk in closed door meetings than pages of newspapers. Other Nigerians especially from the SW always ensnare the Igbo with one divisive topic or another. They have learnt from our history that they cannot defeat us when we are united. But they will easily tear us to shreds once they get us to sing discordant tunes. That is the danger in what Umahi is doing. |
globemoney:Again if you are Igbo, you will count from Ukpabi Asika till date how many that fell from their exhaulted position for going against the wishes of their people. I support Umahi today because he is doing well in Ebonyi, but he will not get such niceties if he becomes the spokesman for Yoruba press. Just like you are doing here pretending to be Igbo. |
globemoney:If Umahi goes against Igbo interest, he will pay for it. Whether he is SE governor forum secretary or not. I cannot repeat the number of people who felt they could go against Igbo interest because of their office. Don't mix unrelated issues with IPOB's struggle. |
nnamdijonathan:Bro, Please, don't hype the ego of an internet nuisance by responding to him. Truly, there is no need to respond to a dog. He knows very well the area in the picture isn't main market but down-flyover upper Iweka area, which is more than 5KM away from main market. So let him continue his silly deceit. In any case, he isn't from Anambra, so don't fall for his forced attache to Anambra.
|
nnamdijonathan:Truth is that APC will never allow an Igbo President to emerge. All the lies they have dished out so far is merely to deceive gullible Igbos into voting for them in 2019 so that their hearts will be broken in 2023. They have already promised Tinubu the 2023 slot, so all their lies about Igbo President in 2023 is just the height of insult on Igbos whom they think cannot reason beyond their noses. By the way, Umahi and all those trying to spoil the chance of Igbo getting back into Nigeria's mainstream politics should stop it immediately Else we would mobilize to make sure they become politically irrelevant. |
raker300:It will be a continuous battle to stop illegal street markets in Onitsha. Since the end of Biafran war, the psyche of the people had been to simply create street markets wherever they can. The sad thing is that we are no longer a war torn society without law and order. Street markets can no longer be condoned to continue to deface our key cities like refugee settlements. Our people should please learn to trade in designated markets and NOT streets or major roads meant to drive the economy. These street trading had made it near impossible to develop Onitsha into a beautiful adorable city where tourists and decent businesses would like to come and set up. Onitsha has continued to resemble a war-torn huge refugee camp- largely from the indiscriminate activities of street traders. I thank Gov. Obiano for fighting this mentality of street trading until it is finally stopped.

Buhari knows he has already lost but he will also refuse to concede defeat. He simply hopes to use INEC to announce fake results and use the Nigerian army to shoot protesters. 2019 will be very bloody because of Buhari's plan to use the army against the people's verdict. In the end, Buhari will have no choice but to respect the people's verdict. But he would have killed many innocent Nigerians Buhari and his followers are now using people like Chris Uba as moles to create problem in PDP. In the end, he will fail as usual. |

EasternActivist:Glad to see Atiku did not make the mistake of choosing Bode George or some Yoruba as his running mate. We already know Yoruba wanted to make the two major parties to have a Yoruba VP. Even when most of them will not vote for Atiku. Most of the Yoruba APC always wanted to vote Buhari and would never have thought of voting Atiku. However to ensure Atiku lost, the plan of the yoruba is to make Atiku to become antagonistic to SE and SS by choosing a Yoruba as his running mate. I'm glad Atiku did not fall for their media deceit. Now is the time to get all the people complaining about the poor state of Nigerian economy and all the evil that have befallen Nigeria since 2015 to come out and VOTE. You have no right to complain about bad people in power when you decided not to vote for the good ones to win. |
TundeBricklayer:I Love this! Lets keep building high quality schools for our children. In time, all these children will become great Anambrarians in all fields of human endeavor. |

I sincerely believe if we can solve electricity problem the way use of submersible pumps and boreholes solved issue of acute water scarcity in Igboland, then we are on our way to a middle income country. Like everything the FG touches, there is no way there will be electricity in Nigeria unless they concession the entire thing out to credible companies the way they did with NITEL. Meanwhile, it is unlikely that they will go beyond these DISCOS, therefore we must evolve ways to supply our homes with electricity using renewable power. I wonder if there are experts here that can give us a proper cost analysis of rooftop solar panels and wind-turbine systems for powering homes both during the day and at night. We have got to find a way of building homes with renewable electricity facilities on the roof.

OreMI22:I think Igbos are finally realizing the huge disservice they do to themselves by the attitude of not voting - and allowing other people to decide their fate through those they elect into power. I begged my bosom friend in 2015 to vote and he vehemently refused and laughed at my stupidity and silliness to vote. His reasons were that it didn't concern him who ruled Nigeria nor Lagos and his vote would be rigged anyway.He would only vote if his brother was contesting, he said. So why stand under the sun for another man's ambition he said laughing hysterically at me? All pleas to make him see reasons were futile. He mocked at me and his gate-men and household staff from the north as senseless people because we wasted our time to vote. He kept mocking me to explain how not voting (for politicians enjoying billions of naira) will affect his enjoyment of life. Any explanation about the risk of the worst set of people getting power and even abusing us more than the current politicians made him laugh even more. Well, as soon as Buhari took over, the first took over, he descended on foreign exchange people. He nearly begged for food in 2015-2016. Then the worst happened, Ambode demolished his bureau de change house. Now he hides from all of us because he thinks anyone would mock him. I heard he had since got a PVC for Ambode. Unfortunately for him, Ambode won't be contesting again. Some of our boys dead from Python Dance abuse of power are some of those that also wondered what they would gain voting anyone. Well, if they had voted, perhaps somebody else would be Commander-in-Chief and would not use our troops to kill civilians in the name of Python Dance 1 and 2. Thus, they would still be alive today. I always tell people that as long as you live inside Nigeria, whatever the politicians do affect you. It's either your children are jobless because they have killed the economy or they create so much corruption and insecurity that armed robbers will feel free to come and kill you in your house. I just returned from a trip to Botswana. Do you know these people have constant electricity even in the remote villages? Yet, you can't be sure of 8 hours of electricity in Lagos? I am glad that a lot more people are realizing that the ONLY way to have a Nigeria of our dreams begins first with VOTING. Nothing more, nothing less. |
I view with heavy suspicion the recent barrage of attacks on various Igbo groups in this fora. I was one of those that begged Spyder to use his good influences to create this thread to enable us share ground shaking ideas to take advantage of our small sized region and develop it very fast through implementing feasible plans that can only come from a gathering of great minds in a platform as this. Some faceless person has been creating multiple monikers to make this thread an avenue of hate and Igbo disunity. The exact opposite intention for it's creation. My question is what is the intention of this wicked individual and why is he so terrified about Igbos rising again in Nigeria? My biggest surprise isn't that what he is trying to create here happened, because i know nincompoops always existed in every family, but how some erudite members of the forum swallowed his deceit hook line and sinker. The question on my mind is their game plan?? Now that it appears the SE is again moving into mainstream national politics. Whose interest is it to have SE remain a marginalized minority in Nigeria?? They know the only way to make a majority tribe become a minority is to break them up into fragments. Then create nonsense for them to keep squabbling about, while their share of Nigeria's wealth is shared amongst others who are not even as populous as Igbo. They did it in the past when they feared so called "Igbo domination". Why are they so frantic again to pull Igbos down?? I leave you to ponder on the immortal words of the Awka Declaration of our People. "Never Again" shall we play the games of our enemies and become willing tools of our own misfortune in their hands.Fighting ourselves needlessly like jackals, while they share our commonwealth amongst themselves. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjjzcfOEYqY |
pazienza:Bros, Please don't trust these yoruba Lagos-Ibadan express road press. They always write everything as though "Igbo" made some mistake and it is Yoruba that has sense. Meanwhile, the same Atyiku the bastardized so much in the media, watch how they will try to lure him with praises to choose a Yoruba running mate. Once he does not, which i know he would not, they will turn into vicious dogs again and say how corrupt he is and how he is on FBI most corrupt list etc. Please stop being easily swayed by these people's well crafted write up. It is exactly engineered to make you reason that there is always a single right option for every problem which is fundamentally false. |
Oil price is almost $90 dollars now. What is Osun doing now? Or better,why has Buhari refused to help out Osun workers with the oil windfall he is silently packing money? |
pazienza:Ugwuanyi did the right thing. I hate when we keep asking our Governors to do this and that with their limited resources, they plead lack of resources to do everything, then spend the resources on party jamborees. I feel better that Enugu State's meager resources were spent on infrastructure than party jamborees.Imagine news like "Enugu spends N500 million on PDP national convention" It's the type of thing a thoughtless person like Rochas or Amaechi would do. |
