North ready for Nigeria’s breakup –Prof. Ango Abdullahi, Northern Elders’ spokesman
— 5th February 2017

Is the North really ready for dissolution?

Absolutely, absolutely, we are. It all depends on the selfish way people want to negotiate. I am 78 now and I also went to the only university in the country at the time in Ibadan. Nobody can tell me about the history of this country. I know a lot about it because I was very much awake and a grown up person to know what happened. The people who argued for the creation of states in 1966/67 are the same people today who are asking for the restructuring of Nigeria with particular preference for regional arrangements.

Why is the North ready for dissolution? What are the indices?

The biggest indices other Nigerians do not want Nigeria; so I don’t see why the North should insist on having Nigeria. That is the biggest index I have. And this is on the basis of the recent statements. The Nigerian elite are the ones undermining the existence of the country and as long as they remain in the fore-front as elite and politicians, so long as we are going to have problems, so long will Nigeria not have the rapid development that we had hoped to when we got independence in 1960.

Dissolve this huge joke called Nigeria and you will you see development in the Niger area called Nigeria.

With separate country, these projects will be completed. The new country will seek foreign loans to do these projects...staying together will only increase suffering...
Politics › 2nd Niger Bridge, Sapele-agbor-ewu, Ogwashi Uku Dam Abandoned. by Cooly100(op): 7:50pm On May 31, 2017
HE ground-breaking ceremony of the second bridge across river Niger between Asaba (Delta State) and Onitsha (Anambra State) was performed by former President Goodluck Jonathan on March 10, 2014, with fanfare, which attracted the presence of prominent citizens of eastern Nigeria and Delta.

However, the project is abandoned by the present administration, although there appears to be light at the end of the tunnel following the visit of the senate committee on works to Delta and Anambra states and to the site of the bridge recently.

Awarded to Julius Berger at a cost of N117.8 billion including VAT sourced from the coffers of subsidy reinvestment programme (SURE-P), construction commenced immediately as there was a beehive of activities at the construction site at Oko and it was suddenly abandoned.

The total width of the dual carriage bridge is 35.3m consisting of 16.05m wide 3- lane carriage way in each direction and 3,03m central reverse.

The bridge, which is 1590 metres in length is being located I.7km down stream of the existing one.

According to its prototype, the dualised road leading to the bridge veers off from the Benin-Asaba expressway at a point before the Asaba International Airport, crossing through Ibusa road and straight to Amakon-Oko community on the Niger. At the Anambra end, the link road continues to Atani joining the Onitsha-Owerri express way and beyond to Onitsha-Enugu express road.

The new bridge and the connecting roads are expected to enhance the capacity of the South-East-South-West transport corridor and provide significant economy.

Similarly, the dualisation of Sapele-Agbor -Ewu road, which was flagged off on March 25, 2015 by the then Minister of Works Arch Mike Onolememen, has been abandoned by the federal government.

There were two sections; the first one covers Sapele-Agbor in Delta while the other covers Agbor-Ewu in Edo at a total cost N112.8 billion.

The then minister performed the flag off for the section one in Sapele, Delta State and later performed that of section two at Igueben in Edo.

Following the deplorable state of the road, the Delta state government decided to rehabilitate Agbor-Abraka-Eku axes of section one of the road.

Also abandoned by the federal government is the Ogwashi uku earth dam which was meant to provide water and generate for the area.

The project which started since 2007 was to be commissioned by the former Vice President Namadi Sambo towards the tail end of former President Jonathan administration but was stopped by the community which felt that the project was not complete.

The effect of the abandonment according to the community and the people ofAniocha south council area is the massive rise of the water level in the river such that it is currently on the verge of cutting off the Ogwashi uku-Kwale-Ughelli road.

I have gone through several online media and found that the Yorubas, out of the 260 known ethnic groups in Nigeria, are the ONLY tribe very angry about Nigeria breaking up. From Nairaland, Facebook, Whatsup, Instagram, newsprint online media, and even on physical level.

Could people state why this is so. We learn in this process. Please no insults..

just shut d fvck up if u cant communicate without using insults. it only shows who u are, u get hurt when people state the truth. u just cant think before you type. i have been to ebonyi state, the only places that are developed are abakaliki and afikpo so how do u compare such poor growth to the huge growth in lagos state? almost all the cities in lagos are developed, while only two cities in abakaliki are developed.
so what is it dat u talkn about intelligence? i just showed u that u didnt think before u replied. that makes me way more intelligent dan u are.
List of poor places in ebonyi state:
isu
okposi
onicha
uburu
ezza (the one linking okposi)
ivo
Abaomege
etc etc
please mention places in lagos that are as terrible as these places.
by the way i didnt contradict myself ebonyi state is suffering from gross underdevelopment while lagos isnt. i mentiond that slums exist in lagos state and in developed climes. then i said u cant compare the slums in lagos state to the gross neglect in ebonyi state. if only u understood english, u would have gotten my point.
u people spend time insulting others but cant type out meaningful statements.
u know the truth about the state of things in ebonyi but u dont want to admit it. i wonder why people dont like to accept the truth but would rather chose to believe and live a lie.
Lagos state is many years ahead of ebonyi state in both growth and development.
Mr angry man do u now want to compare 2 developed cities in ebonyi out of 13 to 20 developed cities in lagos state with few slums?
uve lost the argument
Sissy. Though I have not seen pictures of those villages...but I am sure Makoko Yaba in central Lagos is worse than those places...Do you local bitch ever travel out of your location?

what has shame got to do with anything being discussed here? if u got frustrations, channel it elsewhere because you cant talk to me with anger. if you speak in frustration, i wont respond which will be painful for u.
ur response is only giving an excuse for the underdevelopment in ebonyi state.
Do u want to talk about lagos? u think lagos is underdeveloped? visit these places, magodo, alapere, festac, gbagada, ilupeju, ajao estate, ikeja etc. all these places arent even on the island. lagos has been able to use the funds it gets from the FG into developmental projects. yes there are slums in Lagos so also are there slums in America. u cant just bring a weak excuse of the slums in lagos state at par with its huge budgets and compare it with the gross underdevelopment, suffering, total neglect of the people of ebonyi state
Look at how you contradict yourself...Parts of Lagos are developed..so are parts of Ebonyi..Mister you are not intelligent...Take it or leave it...

You have no shame...This pic is in central Lagos...You are talking of villages in Ebonyi state..A state with small budget...compare with Lagos with more than N500 billion budget in a year..

50th Biafra anniversary: MASSOB, Security Agents hold processions in Imo


IPOB

Chidiebube Okeoma, Owerri May 29, 2017

The residents of Owerri, the Imo State capital, were in the early hours of Monday thrown into a surprise, as members of Movement for Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra and its sister group, Indigenous People of Biafra, and combined security agents staged separate processions ahead of the May 30 “sit at home” order by the pro-Biafra agitators.

While security agents comprising the Police, Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps, State Security Services, Army and Airforce processed across major streets in Owerri and other parts of the state, the pro-Biafra activists staged a street protest across the state capital ahead of the May 30, 50th year Biafra anniversary celebration.

Singing pro Biafra songs, the secessionist groups shared hand bills which read “2017 Biafra Heroes remembrance day. We remember our fallen heroes from 1966-2017. 3.5 million Biafrans killed in Nigeria Biafra war. Over 200 IPOB members killed from 2015 till date. 30th May 2017, sit at home. Celebrating 50th Biafra anniversary”.

Amidst cheers and ovation from residents who came out to watch them, the MASSOB and IPOB members, demonstrated, clutching various Biafra insignias.

Politics › Biafra Is Not A Dirty Word -Simon Kolawole by Cooly100(op): 12:57pm On May 29, 2017
It’s now 50 years since the first shot was fired and 47 years since the war ended, but many of the issues are still on fire. The Igbo, in particular, believe that they are not receiving a fair deal in the union despite all the talk about reconciliation, rehabilitation and reconstruction. They believe the quota system and federal character are skewed against them, and the entrance requirements into federal schools are tougher for them compared to other parts of the country. The Igbo are also often at the receiving end of ethno-religious violence — although it is not limited to them these days. At some point, they always suffered the heaviest casualty.

In the meantime, while every geo-political zone has six states (the north-west has seven), the south-east has only five. That means when you pick a minister per state, they will always have only five. They also have the least number of local governments. Federal infrastructural projects that could boost the south-east economy, such as interstate roads, railway and the second Niger bridge, do not often get priority attention in Abuja. Under the current administration, Igbo influence at the federal level has diminished significantly, compared to the case under Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan when they held important positions, especially under Jonathan.

The elephant in the room, of course, is presidency. Will an Igbo ever become president of Nigeria again? Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, an Igbo, was governor-general of Nigeria from 1960 to 1963 and president from 1963 to 1966, but these were ceremonial positions without executive powers. Major-General JTU Aguiyi-Ironsi, an Igbo, accidentally became military head of state in 1966 after the failed Major Kaduna Nzeogwu-led coup. Aguiyi-Ironsi ruled for six months before he was killed in the countercoup. Since then, no Igbo has been president, either civilian or military. However, the other major ethnic groups — Hausa/Fulani and Yoruba — have had their fill.

Now let’s face the fact: if I were an Igbo with such a long list of grievances, I would feel unloved and unwanted in the Nigerian federation. It is very easy for an outsider to dismiss these complaints. But the question to ask is: if you are a Fulani or Yoruba or Ijaw and you have a strong feeling that the system is skewed against the hopes, dreams and aspirations of your people, will you keep quiet? Who feels it knows it. I have said this a million times: I do not wish to live in any society where I am convinced there is a conspiracy to keep anyone down. I want to live in a society where there are no glass ceilings — no matter your ethnic origin, religion, beliefs, gender and accent....

wale101010:
I have been a locker on Nairaland for years but I cannot be quiet anymore because I and millions of others might lose our jobs in Port Harcourt with the momentum seen with IPOB/Biafra restoration since Nnamdi Kanu release. I never believed for a while that IPOB could ever penetrate South South, particularly Rivers state. I work here as an oil worker and I'll be honest with you all: IPOB/Biafra has taken over Rivers state particularly Port Harcourt...everywhere you go its IPOB. Anyone telling you that IPOB/Biafra is a SE/Igbo affair is deceiving you. We here on gorund know what's happening here. It's not just Igbos, it's Ikwerre, Urhobo, Ishekiri, Annang, Ibibio, you name it!

As a concern citizen, I think Federal government should as a matter of emergency move to counteract Nnamdi Kanu before this gets out of hand because after May 30th, things will never be the same with Nigeria. You cannot stop this movement by force, anyone advising you to use force is deceiving you. The people following Nnamdi Kanu are not fools; this people, as with us know that Nigeria is a failure especially with the marginalization of SE, and some areas with SS. This is not the time to debate on if the fault is from the leaders of SE or SS, no, rather time for the Federal government to act immediately by implementing these measures below to pacify and make these young men abandon Kanu.

Federal government must do these:

1. Declare May 30th, Biafra Memorial Day and ask the Senate to pass it as a law that every May 30th will be a public holiday. On this May 30th, acting President Osinbanjo will lead the commemoration of all Biafran fallen heroes and heroines, by laying a wreath at the National Square Abuja in their memory. Celebrate it like we do with Nigeria Airforces Remembrance Day. Biafran Fallen Heroes and Heroines are human too like their Nigerian counterpart.
2. A committee should be set up by the Presidential Executive Council to go to SE and fact-find on all federal roads that need repair, expansion, and construction of new roads where needed.
3. All seaports and Riverport in SS and SE; Port Harcourt, Onne, Calabar, Warri and Onitsha should be reopened, funded and allowed to function to full capacity without interference.
4. All International Airports in SE and SS; Port Harcourt, Calabar, Enugu and Asaba should be funded and allowed to function to full international airport standard like Lagos and Abuja.
5. Earmark funds to support local manufacturers in Aba, Onitsha and Nnewi.
6. Most importantly, restructure the oil and gas industry, where states will be allowed to managed their oil and gas resource, and pay tax to the center.
7. Fix the lopsided appointments by Buhari, and ensure that SE, SW, SS, NC, NW, and NE are evenly represented.
8. Do away with quota system in our educational system, and let students who score high marks reap the benefits of their labor.
9. Disarm Fulani and restrict their movements to the North only.
10. All government offices and agencies must have at least one office in Enugu, Calabar or Port Harcourt.
11. All foreign consulate and visa processing centers must have at least one office in Enugu, Calabar or Port Harcourt.
12. Assure them of a new Nigeria in the horizon, and things will be better, and more restructuring will be made in the coming months as more consultations are done.

I ASSURE YOU, MAJORITY OF SE AND SS will abandon Nnamdi Kanu within 48 hrs. These people actually prefer Nigeria than Biafra, so will work with Federal government on a reasonable arrangement and fulfillment of the conditions above. YOU CAN NEVER EVER WIN THIS BATTLE WITH IPOB WITH FORCE...NEVER! YOU MUST USE SENSE; THEIR AGITATION IS BASED ON SERIOUS MARGINALIZATION.
You are not bias at all...You said it as it is...The time bomb is ticking...though...
