noblezone: Is that so?
Then we are already in "Biafra part II".

Biafra is not the solution to the problems of the Igbos. Rather Biafra is the cause of the current Igbo situation. Through Biafra we lost the number one position as the leading tribe in Nigeria. Through Biafra, and the attendant punitive postwar economic policies against eastern Nigeria, the Igbo moral fabric was severely compromised( Things Fall Apart gives you an idea how strong our moral values were). So that today almost anything is acceptable in our culture once you have money. Because money is worshipped, Igbo children go to school less. But a man with money and no education has limited vision and can at best be a local champion. We need to adapt ourselves to the reality of twenty first century Nigeria. We Igbos need to be more selfless, more educated, learn how to be more emotionally intelligent, have more far-reaching deep underground networking, cherish intergrity more than money, show more respect to the feelings of other people. These are the weapons that we need in the current scramble for control of resources and power in Nigeria. You can only beat your opponents with superior weapons and superior strategies. Then, with the added advantage of our industrious heritage and never-say-die attitude to life, we can be ready to take our rightful place in the Nigerian scheme of things. The current concept of the typical Igboman character held by other tribes in Nigeria are all traceable to Biafra. Fellow easterners, Biafra has served its necessary purpose when it was needed. Emotionalizing Biafra as many Igbos currently do can only trap us in the past.

Abraham2013: I have said b4 and I will say it again, no northerner will rule Nigeria 4 d next 30yrs. So any party dat has a northerner as dere presidential candidate has already started losing. This is because all d problems Nigeria is facing 2day is as a result of mistakes our past leaders hav made of which 85% r northerners.

I am sure you wrote that without thinking! The North is still the power block of Nigeria.... and I am not a northerner.
What Nigeria needs now in a president is a man with iron and steel willpower, highly focused and visionary.
And one other thing: he must not be afraid to die! Because the big monster holding down Nigeria will come after him.
