Noneroone:
having a pro biafran movement like IPOB is different from forming a political party and joining zoo politics. IPOB get her legitimacy through the right to self determination, while zoo base their defence on the indivisibilty of the country. That is why it is difficult to nail kanu through the courts because Nigeria is a signatory to that. It will also be easy to nail any pro biafran reprentative in zoo govt through the court because he has violated his oath. Hausa/fulani has a hegemonic grip on the country by "virtue" of their civil war victory and they therefore own the nigerian political game. You cant beat a man i his own game. The only chance we have is to strenghten the mass movement, continue global awareness and protests and take part in other nations politics subtlely . We have biafrans worldwide but they dont. That is the advantage we have over them and that is our own game!. It may look futile now but soon the moral burden will be too heavy for the US. May be with time we shall employ methods like the one pazienze suggested, but my problem is that its gonna be difficult. Before you infiltrate the system, IPOB ideology must be deeply engraved in the mind of an average Igbo in order to eliminate the problem of trust and betrayal.

Brilliant

nepapole:
And Nigeria ends up like Libya.

No problem as long as Fulani herdsmen are killed to stop their terrorism

God bless Trump
We need that bomb against Fulani herdsmen terrorizing our people in the South.

Trump, pls face Fulani herdsmen for us

I want to first address IPOB shootings. By that act by the Nigerian security forces, the Government of Muhammadu Buhari has been heavily damaged on international level by the killings. Many in the international community actually thought the man was a reformed democrat who would encourage the rule of law and improve the abysmal human rights record of Nigeria, he made it much worse. Buhari should have fired the COAS Burutai when he heard that hundreds of Shia Muslims had been massacred to send a strong message to the security forces of Nigeria that impunity and heavy handed methods were no longer acceptable. He didnt. He also exposed himself as a callous person when he refused to view the video recording of the Nigerian Army shooting unarmed IPOB in Aba. Amnesty internstional put the nail on the coffin of Buharis administeration with the report on 150 IPOB gunned down by his administerstion for exercising their constitutional right to protest. The damage done to Buhari is that nobody takes him too serious in the internstional community any more because the measure of a progressing country is its human rights record.

So the killings of Biafrans has won support for Biafra, converted many 'fence sitters' to the cause of Biafra. Even many Igbo Governors are now calling for Kanus release. The IPOB that were killed did not die for nothing, their deaths exposed Nigeria to the world as a country in bondage. We shall honour their memory when we are free.

When it comes to IPOB forming a political party, we should remember that IPOB is organisation that is about leaving Nigeria, not joining it. The way Nigeria is currently structured, it would be a waste of time for anyone to try to form a political party to secede from Nigeria. That political party, even if they win all the political positions in the area they want to secede, will still go to the Nigerian National Assembly where Hausas and Yorubas will be wating to deal with them.

It takes 67% of the votes to get a constitutional change at the National Assembly, so how will any IPOB party get this vote with just the North controling over 60% the votes? Not possible same way restructuring is not possible in Nigeria.

God bless you

laudate:
Are you serious? You mean you do not have one yet? Ok, I get it now.... your region is landlocked, which is why your brethren have been claiming Port-Harcourt as part of the Igbo enclave. Initially, I used to think Port-harcourt sea port and Onne seaport were part of your region, but it appears that is not true from the map. Accept my apologies...

Economic illiterate, those seaports are not functioning like those in Lagos.

Nuclear weapons proliferation should be stopped at all cost


I wish Trump can give room for we Biafrans to join his military in his war to defeat North Korea and unite the 2 Koreans under One country but 2 government

DocHMD:
Who told you yorubas want resource control? yorubas have always opposed resource control tactically since 1999 together with the north. Even Ladoja opposed resource control during the Confab, go and watch the video of that confab.
What do you want Osun people to drink? River Osun water.


When we tell you IPOB have the facts and more enlightened than you all, you think we are joking. Go read up.

Very true

Yorubas are against Resource Control

Is it the Afonja elites that opposes Biafra online

adorablepepple:
It's Good you all clamour for Biafra but when you finally get there,you think you the youths shouting,fighting and killing yourselves would rule? . Or you think your leaders would be divinely sent to you from the throne of God You lie.... if you are following something use your head. The person that will be your President has never said pim.. about this Biafra...
I wish you people quick response so you can go.

Pls return back to the club.

Politics no fit you.

Afonjas will not sleep today

Gone are the good days of Prof Barth and Nebo
Fashola= Minister for Darkness

Terrorists have not hiding place under Trump

China beware

totit:
Could you do me a favor? Now, Google that name " Ovia " you will found it commonly use among SS or without SE people.

Stop speaking too much English

Which tribe bears Ovia

Answer the God damned question

totit:
I met a Kenya friend who bear yoruba name ' Dayo " does that make her yoruba?
Thank you

I accept also that Kenyans are Yorubas
Hope you are happy

KungLaoooo:
Aaaaaargh you boys bore me! Tell us the meaning of Ovia in Iborikiti language. Simple! How difficult is that?

I surrender

From today, I accept your view that Agbors are Yorubas

Hope you are comfortable now

totit:
Ha Han, bro you are forcing those words on me abeg.

I say I agree with you that Agbors are Yorubas who bear names like Femi, Kemi, Tunde etc

Hope you are happy

totit:
You can't separate a man from his source.

OK I surrender
Agbors are Yorubas
Are you happy now

totit:
Ofcourse, even Lagos, ogun et al are exempted. Ibo are almost everywhere, including the north..

We have indigenous Igbos in Delta, Rivers, Akwa Ibom , Cross River, Benue and if I am very sure, Bayelsa.

KungLaoooo:
So what's the meaning of Ovia in Iborikiti language

So you are saying Agbors are Urhobos

Chaiiiii. you will kill me with laugh


Continue deceiving yourself

totit:
[b]..Old[/b]You mean? Geologically? You wrong until it's fixed.

Hahahaha
Keep fooling yourself

Maduawuchukwu:
Yes, Lagos will be leading for long but you know that In economics overtaking is allowed. See how the coming of silicon valley made California to dust New-york in GDP all of a sudden.

Once we have an international seaport in the former Eastern region, industries will move Eastward

totit:
You are what you want to be,whom you choose to be and where you choose to belong. But the truth is? You can't take away a man from his source.

And yes, until the issue of region is resolved he remain a delta man.

Where did you even got the words ' delta-ibo from? Ibo is ibo.

Is Delta a tribe

Village man, Delta contains the following tribes

Isoko
Urhobo
Ijaw
Ishekiri
Igbo

totit:
You putting words in my mouth. I can't remember stating that,bro.

Agbors are Igbos living at the western most part of Igbo land.

Kaysalas:
Na was for u O! How do u expect him to know? Him be census official? You wey don do the headcount, TELL US

How can he know when he is a village man that do not travel to other places

totit:
No bro.

Jim ovia isn't from SE and yoruba owns GTB

Are you saying Agbors are not Igbos

aribisala0:
I do not know just like you the difference is I admit it.You on the other hand foolishly assert knowledge without evidence.
If you 8th ow please tell us HOW you know

I know and I am telling you that Igbos are more than Yorubas in the North in population and economic activities.

Travel out of your enclave

Not everyone on NL is jobless like you

After the indigenous population in each state, Igbos are mostly the largest non indigenous people living in each state

If you doubt me, mention one Non-Yoruba state, Yorubas have more population than Igbos.

aribisala0:
So that is praise to you.? You have no sense. I have not seen the data to back the Emir s claim One thing I know from personal experience is that Hausa speaking people are very good mechanics for trucks and many of those I know can't even speak English go to Kara in Sagamu and see for yourself When it comes to fabrication of local machines s I know Oyo is good at that.
People should not be fooled by such flattery,we heard the same thing about lawyers and judges in the 70s and 80s and for more than 30 years there was no Chief Justice from the South.So when the Emir says this let us ask what he is saying is it
Tailors
Plumbers
Bricklayers
Vulcanuzers
Painters
Mechanics
Or what exactly.
Such so called praise would appeal to the egotistic nature of Eboes
I see it completely different
Eboes are like women they like to be flattered because deep down they are insecure.
Having worked closely with Hausa mechanics I can only read the Emir as wishing for a more dominant position. I think we all should be claiming inferior if that means we get more through federal character.
The main difference I would agree to is that women tend not to learn trades but in the South even with that there is still room for improvement.
Are we to believe there are no electricians, painters, bricklayers and so on. Only a pompous fool will believe such nonsense just like people believed there were no lawyers in the north

You have not yet answered the main question

Between Yorubas and Igbos, who have more population in the North.?

Until you answer the question, I will keep viewing you as a completely confused fellow

Maduawuchukwu:
Rubbish! You guys always say that Igbo people are refugees from an unproductive region who run to other lands to escape poverty. Now you claim that Yoruba people are more than Igbo people in Kano just because the Emir praised southerners in his state. Choose one, are u guys in great numbers in the north in which case u are running from poverty in ur region or are u guys in few numbers there as ur region is viable in which case,the Emirs praises were not primarily targeted at the Yoruba?

blues20 cool down and follow the answer to this question above


Good question

Aribisala0 Alexis11 Okoyiboz1 laudate southniyikaye SuperS1Panther answer the question

Are Yorubas population, more or less than the Igbos in Northern Nigeria.?

Afonjas are the worst double tongue souls on earth


Whenever crisis brews in the North, they are the first to remind us that we will have the most victims

They remind us everyday that our land is erosion prone that is why we migrate

Now that Sanusi has praised the Southerners, they immediately changed their mouths

When will Afonjas ever be stable in life

Ikeg:
And yoruba are highly loved that why in USA the city you outnumber most aka Atlanta, the hatred for Nigerians is higher than other states.

That's why the country you outnumber most aka UK is trying it's best to destroy any immigration of Niggerians to their country.

That's why the music Ghanaians made thanking God they aren't nigerians, the city as well as the few nigerian language they used is yoruba.

That's why the priest as well as video of people that South Africans attacked literally few months ago have both yoruba names and spoke the yoruba language.

Oh yes Afonja you are so loved and igbo hated.

Infact there have never been any yoruba deported in any country back to Nigeria. The repeated number of Niggeria ms getting deported from UK must be asians.

I've come to realize that Afonja=Bunch of Savage barbarians with delusional tendencies.

Mama Sikira will not sleep today

See finishing

slivertongue:
SLS may not have refered to any ethnic group but those in the North know the group being refered to. Any community in the North where you dont see Igbos that community is not viable. Igbos are not only traders but skilled labourers.


You are at liberty to claim that SLS refered to your ethnic group instead of attacking another man's ethnic over his opinion.

Are Igbo's not from Southern Nigeria?
why the panic and venom when Igbo's are mentioned? Igbo's contribute greatly to the economy of Northern Nigeria. Igbo's supported Goodluck just like they supported Obasanjo and Yaradua so i see no crime in their supporting GEJ.

Igbo's need nobody to market them God is doing it for them. Even Fayose sent some of his youths to Aba to learn functional skills that will put food on their table.


what Nigerians seem not to know is that Igbo's humbly learn from their host thus the edge they have above others

Shake me jareee

We learn from our host while Afonjas, claim to be superior to their host

Northern Curse
