Na wa. . . . So you people were the ones that kept Maintain in bizness that long.

Useless music, no lyrics, playstation beats.  

@topic. Me I want to lose weight oo.  I wouldn't mind being size 14 sef  

I still don't understand how Stankovic has stayed so long
in the upper echelons of Italian football.

The boy sucks major balls.

Na wa oo. . .

How did the thread I opened turn into a Biafra discussion

Mourinho is proving to be overrated.

I am starting to look at his team
at Porto in a serendipitous light  

He simply doesn't have the most able personnel
and this despite Morratti making money available.

Milito and Etoo cannot work as a pairing
and his defence doesn't inspire confidence
either. Sneijder is nothing more than a midlevel
player and he is key to making the system Mourinho
plays to work.

Chelsea should beat them. They have a better team.

Some pieces just don

Please save your breath. It is no use explaining these things to people with hearts of stone. I never understood the term "cut off your nose to spite your face" until I started studying the Nigerian civil war and the roles played by some tribes. So let it be.
Frankly, the most idiotic concept I can think of today is that of "southern Nigeria". It is so warped in illogic and idiocy that I wonder how we (including myself) ever thought of it as a solution. THERE IS NO SOUTH.

I have personally found out that most northerners are people who keep their words -they are reliable. If a northerner says yes, you can take that to the bank, likewise if he says no. So, it is easier to work with them. Among them still, you see that the christian parts are even better to work with. They are peaceful and try to go to school.

So, the idea of breaking the north as a political unit is not a bad one provided that it does not mean bringing them to join a "South". We in the East can work with the Christian north in a political alliance if you like (Like Zik did with Solomon Lar in Plateau State 1979 NPP).

We must avoid any political alliances that involve the Yoruba.

Your proposal works for me as well too lol.
I as a Yoruba am not in any way rigidly attached
to a compulsory association with the ''East'' as you call it.


So long as we somehow break this warped stranglehold of the Upper North
on Nigeria.

[quote author=tpia. link=topic=403790.msg5579153#msg5579153 date=1267040454]@ OP

the indigenes of those states you mentioned do not necessarily like the south more than they do the north.[/quote]I suggest this is because the south has never tried to woo them in the first place.

We have alienated them with this division we have helped to perpetuate.

Do not forget, Orkar's coup was aimed at excising states he termed the core North
from Nigeria. This for me is evidence of large discontent within these states with
the largely Islamic Hausa states.

lol. . .

Na wa. . what hopes do we have of breaking the North like I propose
if the Southerners are still fighting themselves over historical irrelevances.

Jonathan should as a matter of first instance start doing what he should
have done before.

They say he is in charge of affairs. That means he has power to fire and
appoint ministers.

If they say he doesn't, then they should produce Yaradua to come and handle
his own FEC meetings.

If he doesn't, then impeachment proceedings must begin. . . .

Lets see the North argue against that.

House of Reps rules committee chairman says Jonathan is still recognised as Acting President.

Afam:
I don't see any reason why breakup should come up at all. We must work together to keep Nigeria as one no matter what it takes.

United we stand, divided we fall.

My argument is not for a breakup of the country. My argument is actually
for us to stop the instinctive tendency to divide the country into an imaginary
North and South.

There are states in the ''North'' that have lost and still have as much to lose
based on this mythical division. If we can get states especially the middle belt
states to the side of the ''south'', then we can constitutionally shape the country
that best serves our needs.

This current impasse has of course started rumblings about Northern obstinacy
and calls for Nigeria to divide on a North and South basis from so called ''southerners''.

I posit though this divide does not exist and as a figment of our imagination has led
to the defeat of progressives and their causes.

The North as one poster on another thread is not one monolith. We only need look
at the situation in Plateau for confirmation. Many other states in the North from largely
christian Taraba and others like Kogi, Benue and of course Plateau do not share the same
characteristics of what we regard as the typical North. That they coalesce with the North is
as much a result of Southerner's promotion or at least acquiescence in acknowledging a North
South divide as any geographical relationship.

I therefore suggest we desist from this North South rubbish. The states mentioned above
have lost as much from the hypercentral arrangement which exist to hold the nation backwards
as much as the typical Northern states.

The efforts of ''Southerners should be directed towards wooing them. Then we can achieve
democratically what Gideon Orkar tried to achieve through violent means.

The National Assembly is the one that needs to stand up now.

The Yaradua's are attempting to rubbish their resolution that
made Jonathan acting president without acknowledging the
requirements they stated for him to regain his post.

JONATHAN IS THE MOST SPINELESS BEING ON EARTH.

A disgrace to every ''quick minded, fleet footed'' niger deltan out there.

WHAT DID HE HAVE TO LOSE. . . .

He was largely relegated in the administration prior to this whole saga
in the first place.

What was the worst that could happen.

The worst that could have happened was for him to be impeached, and the
NATIONAL ASSEMBLY would not have been able to muster the required votes anyway.

The SPINELESS BAGGAR.

Why do southerners always lose their bottle when it comes to le crunch.  

All this talk about ''go back to your state''. . .

How about if the complainant is a lagosian?

You will tell him of her to renounce their ''citizenship'' abi?

Na wa. . .  So he is not dead.

Let us see him stand in front of cameras first
for at least two minutes.

I can't understand why a whole culture would always sit on the fence waiting for the Akunyilis, the Maduekes of this World to lead before they jump down from the fence and start making noise.

Remember this thread?

lol. . . at least one tribe follows the ''ladies first'' adage religiously

I don't think he does any harm na.

And we need characters like this in the area.

Else it would be one drab bonfire of the tribalists.
