The op lacks economic sensitivity, the division of Nigeria is the fastest way of creating jobs. All those posts occupied by the certificateless northerners will be vacant and there will be massive employment. What have the igbos benefited from Nigeria? Igbos have the least of federal government employees and no tangible federal project in igbo land. Yet people have been surviving on this while, igbos have nothing to loose if this bloody nation is divided.

Na so bro! Like the writer is afraid of something.......freedom!

Zinicc:
I have seen it, read it, understood it, digested it and now I want Biafra even more...

Op. What have you achieved?

Confirm! Biafra is here already.....

masterpower:
I dont know why yorubas are afraid of Biafra. Doest it mean that yorubas are truely parasites?
Does it truely mean the yorubas are lazy and unproductive?

Anyway, all i know is that yorubas Can Not Survive, Live nor Prosper without the Igbos.

I advice the lazy and unproductive yorubas to eat the humble pie and appologise to the Igbos for all their wicked deeds and remarks against them.

Good day fellow Biafrans!

Gbam!!!

Henry22:
when i see posts like this it clearly shows me how they (oduduwa) are always trying to put fear into the heart of biafrans to make them stay as one nigeria, is it that they (yorubas) are afraid of the aftermath? For Gods sake if biafra wants out then let us go, try abd focus on your own issues or did we tell you( yorubas) that we dont know the challenges? Smh

Does it mean every posts like this is from 'Yorubas' to create fear? Nwa, I am Igbo but I just want everybody to read what a fellow Igbo man wrote on Biafra. A friend just sent me the link.....No be me write am ooo.

Asari Dokubo is now making mouth as if he's one of those Biafra warlords. Where was he when 'Agile' Kanu was arrested? What has been his own contribution on Biafra struggles if he is an Igbo man?

I just got this from a friend and I think all IPOB youths should read this.
What's your take on this?
Its no longer news hearing the ongoing protests in various part of the SE by the IPOB youths. In as much as I’m of the SE extraction, I want my fellow South Easterners to be rational and objective in their thinking. Biafra shouldn’t be our priority now.
The reasons why I’m of the opinion that Biafra shouldn’t be our priority are:



1. Most powerful Igbos leaders are against it: Those of us with strong memories would agree with me that Nnamdi Kanu isn’t the first person to follow this path.
Years ago during Obasanjo’s administration, Mr Ralph Uwazurike the leader of MASSOB attempted something similar. What was the result…he spent years locked up in an underground cell, his members were jailed many are still in jail as we speak, some even lost their precious lives.
The then igbo leaders who even had the senate leadership then did nothing, why cos they weren’t ready to relinquish their positions and Federal Government appointments for Uwazurike’s movement.
If nothing was done by the SE leaders then, what makes the youths so certain that they’ll lift a finger towards their course now considering the fact that most of our leaders are self centered?
2. Thousands and even millions of South Easterners are likely going to be plunged into the job market upon declaration of Biafra: Its most likely that if the biafran dream is actualized today, Igbos working in various Nigerian government parastatals across the federation would automatically loose their job. Starting from Igbos in the military (Army, Airforce and Navy), to Civil Service, to the Nigerian Police Force, NSCDC, Customs, Immigration, FRSC, EFCC, ICPC, The Ministry, Ministers and Senators from the biafran territory will no longer be recognized in the Nigerian Senate, …etc.
Can we cope with that, noting that the current economy of some SE states isn’t something to be proud about, and we can’t even secure employment for those living there how much more when you have a mass exodus of people relocating home

. How will they survive?
Germany requested for thousands of Syrian refugees because they have a very good economy to settle them in months.
We should understand that if Biafra is declared, a similar mass exodus would be experienced.
Question is do we have a plan to absorb the thousands who probably would be relieved of their duties by the Nigerian Federal Government into the biafran economy and create such parastatals for them with a short period of time so they can work and take care of their families?
These are questions we need to ask ourselves.
3. The SE is improvised: We deserve a good leadership in the SE not biafra: Currently, we lack good roads, we lack constant electricity, we lack well equipped government primary and secondary schools, we lack portable drinking water…etc. Why should secession be our priority?
Few months ago, Afikpo youths comprising of Amasiri, Edda, Uwanna…etc blocked the roads to protest 2years of blackout in Afikpo. (The thread was even on Nairaland) I witnessed that protest live cos I was in Amasiri (Ebotrans park) en route Abakaliki and was delayed by the protesters for over an hour because the whole roads leading to Abakaliki were all blocked.
If Afikpo which is agurably the second largest town with the best economy in Ebonyi state after Abakaliki can be in darkness for 2years, then I think its time for us to go back to the drawing board. Cos we can’t expect the biafra economy to survive in darkness.
We should also be bothered about the number of our educated minds finding their way to other geopolitical zones outside the SE in search of greener pastures. That’s another indication to tell us that our economy needs serious rehabilitation.
If we’re so bent on making biafra a reality then we should beginning to hold our leaders accountable to every promise they made to us during the past elections
Great nations are ruled by great minds not thieves, crooks and heartless looters camouflaging themselves as leaders to enrich their 20th generation.
It is time for the Igbo youths to come together and reverse the trend of ubiquitous leadership ravishing igbo land and put up a system that would enable the best of us emerge as leaders.
Our leaders are our problem, therefore we should direct our aggression towards them. Because even if the biafran dream becomes a reality, I doubt we would survive up to 3years considering the kind of crooks we have as leaders.
We should try to understand that Biafra isn’t the solution to the problems we’re currently facing in the SE. If we fail to address the issue of bad leadership then biafra will be a case of “Dead On Arrival”.
4. Inability to stand Independently: A child only thinks of leaving his parents home to cater for himself when feels he’s matured enough to survive independently.
If we’re sincere enough, you’ll all agree with me that most SE states cannot survive without FG allocation. Currently people in Ebony are experiencing serious hardship. No thanks to the Governor (Dave) who has slashed their salaries for no good reason. Imo state isn’t left out of the suffering as state workers there are also experiencing hardship as well.
We have FG allocations yet our Governors cannot pay their workers, and cannot make the state habitable for its people by providing basic amenities. What do you think would happen if the allocation stops?
A few years back when Rochas announced that he wants all secondary schools in imo state to put on a particular school uniform. Yes it was a welcome development to reduce discrimination’s amongst schools. But most people frowned at him when he contracted the job to a Chinese company.
Why would a governor contract a job to a Chinese company for billions of naira when there are so many indigenous companies in the SE that would do it for a far lesser amount?
If our leaders are interested in developing the SE why have they refused to invest in the numerous untapped resources in the SE? Or are they scared that their successors would become the direct benefactors when they leave office?
Isn’t that a myopic way of reasoning?
5. Disunity and inability to make accurate political calculations: From the 1999 till date, while people of other regions had managed to unite behind their candidate of choice in virtually all elections that had been held, we have always failed to do so.
I wasn’t born during the civil war so I have very little knowledge about Ojukwu’s acceptance by the general Igbo populace then.
But I remember vividly in 2003 how he (Ojukwu) lost that election in the SE to PDP’s Obasanjo. It was recorded that Obasanjo had a thrilling 69.46% of votes from the SE. If we sincerely wanted power that year why didn’t we rally round Ojukwu and give him our support like we did during the civil war?
Even when Alex Ekwueme contested the PDP primaries against Obasanjo the same year (2003). That attempt clearly outlined the dis unity amongst our leaders, because most PDP governors of SE states openly campaigned against their own son and supported the same Obasanjo.
Ever since I became knowledgeable of the events happening around me, I’ve never witnessed any election in Nigeria where we (Igbos) emphatically agreed and produced a candidate of the Igbo extraction acceptable to the whole nation and backed him aggressively. Just as President Buhari was backed by his kinsmen and practically other tribes.
In all the elections however from 1999-till date, we (Igbos) have failed to present a formidable candidate.
We don’t even have a formidable political party to start with in the SE. The APGA which was created by Ojukwu has only the governorship seat in Anambra state to boast of.
The North and the SW easily formed an alliance because they had formidable parties they were all loyal to.
My point is that if we cannot determine our political relevance here in Nigeria, we’ll keep having problems among ourselves should biafra become a reality.
Solution: We are all Nigerians so we should work towards the growth of this country. To my IPOB brothers, I will say sheath your swords. Don’t waste your precious lives, MASSOB has followed that path, and today their members in jail are yet to get justice and those that lost their lives as a result of the struggle have been forgotten. If you die in this struggle you will be forgotten, your name wouldn’t even be mentioned anywhere as a hero. Our leaders don’t care, their kids are all abroad so when a stray bullet from a happy trigger policeman hits you, you’re gone. No justice!

Sall:
Am sure the almighty God never saw this coming. It would have been included in the bible.

How do you mean bro? Are you now saying God never knew this would happen? Remember, before you were created He knew you....He formed you( Jeremiah 1: 4-5) God knows everything and can see everything. He knows the end right from the beginning. Who created the earth and everything on it?.......He has the power to do whatever that pleases Him.
Did God include your name in the Bible?....But He had seen you and He knew you will come. There you are!
Cheers!

@OP..
Every girl/lady/woman is wife material......but depending on the stage/level of their life they are. Whether good or bad ladies, they all get married......it now depends on what you want in a lady, your taste and your ability to get along.
Remember that a 20years old lady could be affected by age. Age is just a number and maturity is a thing of the mind. If you feel she's not a wife material,go out there and get a better material with additional 'yards'.
Also, since you guys have been dating,have you ever sat her down and talk about her attitudes and behaviours? Who knows! She might later be a changed lady,lovely Queen and the goddess you've been waiting for. See her as your younger sister(but at the same time your love) that you can talk to or advice.
After doing all these, you can now make your decision whether to keep her or you let her go.
Cheers bro!

Get your facts right first so that you know your right from your left.

Aiit boss! Thanks!

Na wetin dey taya me be this!
My comment has nothing to do with Religion or Faith.
A man and woman were caught in adultery things: The woman was stoned to death why the man was canned.....why must it be that the woman will die for the offence? Is there no equal punishment for offenders apart from death penalty? What if it's a murder offence.....they will stone the whole family of the woman to death.
Chai!!! God will have mercy on Humans.

iPrinz20:
Bros, I am tempted to insult ur ignorance n lies but I won't ....... I am a beneficiary of sureP. My colleagues and i were fully paid our 30k per mnth stipends and 25k training allowance ......

Thanks iprinz20! I am not saying there were not paid(of course,some graduates got their full allowance) but some persons I know even my two cousins said they were not paid. The only money they gave to them was the 5k(for tfare) during the inauguration in Abuja. And before that time,they have already given those in charge their Bank details and some days after given Placement for the training stuff but they were not paid.
Cheers bro!

Abomination!!! Tufiakwa!!!
The man is possessed with 'konji' demons.
We need the mercy of God in this country.

Better that way...Abi na! Sure-P is a political scam. It got to a point that Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala told Nigerians during GEJ tenure that the fund was missing(about 500billion Naira) and later twisted it that it was not missing, then where is it?....and they buried the matter. Billions of Naira..... money dey grow wings? Also,88% of the GIS applicants were not given the 20k monthly stipend.
It's better they scrap the Sure-P things.

networkrecharg:
