Mandate belongs to the party, not a candidate. The supreme court has ruled on this matter. Therefore, the deputy automatically has the mandate.

Which mandate in an election declared inconclusive?

You can have your Biafra for all I care ........but do not try and steal other people land.....that is the simply point.....

Are you normal? The last thing any red-blooded Igbo person would want is a land belonging to non-Igbo. How did it get pass you that one reason for agitation for independent homeland is to get away from dumbasses such as you?

my fellow biafrans, I hope you are all set to bring the zoo down tomorrow if the zoo DSS fails to provide our eminent director MAZI NNAMDI KANU.at the court tomorrow? as for me am ready. am live in abuja nw kuje precisely. singing right now nzobu nzobu enyiba Enyi!!!!!! zobuo buhari enyiba enyi!!!! zobuo burantashi enyiba Enyi!!!!

Anybody who tells you about his/her readiness on any public domain is not a true patriot of Republic of Igbo land or even reconstituted Biafra.

Fmr. Chief of Army staff said: IHEJIRIKA WROTE ON HIS FACEBOOK WALL :
FOOLISH IS NOT IGBO!!!
For 6 years our own occupied the offices of Deputy Senate President, Deputy Speaker, SGF, Minister of Finance /Coordinating Minister of the Nigerian Economy, Ministers of Health, Aviation, Labour, Petroleum (by Marriage), Chief of Army Staff etc yet nobody complained that the Igbos got too much of the Federal Power rations neither did your highly placed brethren improve your lot in terms of development! Other ethnic groups watched carefully and played their politics towards national relevance while we the Igbos got carried away and played politics of the pocket where semi- illiterate money bags charted the cause for us! Those who have access to Aso Rock and got fat contracts sustained the lies to hoodwink both Aso Rock Gods and the Igbos. In blind response devoid of any logical reasonings the Igbos put all their fragile eggs in one basket that had lost form and shape to protect them. As the results of those fatal errors set in the same money miss roads are now fanning the ambers of secession as their next meal ticket bargaining chip while the teaming youth they lure with money and lies risk losing everything including their lives for nothing in the end. Compare the Igbo TAN money bags and/or failed politicians to the likes of Aliko Dangote, Mike Adenuga, Femi Otedola who are hardly seen or heard playing partisan talk less of ethno-religious politics! Imagine Dangote gathering the leaders of Northerners in Lagos and imposing political party or candidate in Lagos State politics on them. Such is near impossible! The Igbos have allowed derogatory pocket politics to puncture their natural nobility as a people! With men of honour and class like Ebitu Ukaiwe, Emeka Anyaoku, Ndubisi Kanu, Ben Nwabueze and others the Igbos should have no business listening to the likes of Ifeanyi Uba (Capital Oil), Chris Uba etc any time they talk politics! Foolish is not IGBO!!!

Per the bolded, the activity of MASSOB and even IPOB, including the Radio Biafra, had been existence for more than 7 years. Radio Biafra was officially launched in 2009. It is this type of shameful intellectual dishonesty readily found among idiotic Nigerians that is fueling the zeal for separation from the "mugu" called Nigeria. At this point of the so-called self governance by Nigerians and enormous natural resources in the country, Nigeria looks poorer than ever.

Raiders:
The deputy governor candidate of APC should swear in as governor because he contested the election. Wada can't be declare winner when he lost the election

From the first paragraph of the post thread you responded with the above post stated that election has been declared inconclusive. I do not think that democracy practiced by human beings allows for such declaration after the election has been marked inconclusive.

You idiots lie for a living....it is my self appointed duty to burst your bubble...

Most idiotic characters that pass as Nigerians are humanly useless. Even attempts to commit suicide simply because of certain individuals wanting to have independent homeland other than the zoo called Nigeria had become bursting of bubble.

I have had anybody as a so-called “Igbo leader” but Mallam Rochas Okorocha. Why are most dumbasses in Nigeria willing to commit suicide on the mention of Biafra or Igbos' agitation to secede from the cesspit called Nigeria? Now I realized where most of the goons in Nigeria sniffed the idea that Ndiigbo are arrogant. If agitation for self-determination and the call for independent Igbo land are part of the imaginary arrogances, Ndiigbo had worn them as badges of honor. Nigeria must be disintegrated. According to Gowon in 1966, there are no bases for unity in the idiotic creation by the British colonialists. There are too many moronic dingbats in Nigeria I have sworn never to associate in any form of togetherness not even useless Nigerian associations.

Kyase:
The paramount ruler and Obi of Onitsha in Anambra State, Igwe Alfred Achebe, has condemned the widespread protests by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), who are calling for the separation ofthe entire south-east regionfrom Nigeria.The condemnation came on the heels of agitations and protests for Biafra nation across parts of the country, especially as the protesters clamoured for the release of the Director of Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, who had been in detention since October.Speaking in an interview shortly after his inauguration as the Chancellor of Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, IgweAchebe told the protesters to shelve the idea of secession from the rest of Nigeria. He said that such agitation would only amount to violating the constitution ofthe country and the principles of democracy. The traditional ruler reminded the pro Biafra agitators of the inherent dangers involved in their action, emphasising that Nigeria remained a united and indivisible country irrespective of the numerous challenges.He urged them to channel all their grievances to their elected representatives in the National Assembly for consideration, rather than embarking on violent protests that could result into breakdown of law and order in the region.- TodayNG

Per the bolded, I hope this Igwe of a guy is not intellectually handicapped. In fact, the constitution guarantees the freedom of expression. In addition, agitation for self-determination is a vassal of democracy which Nigerian constitution upholds.

Bros you are one person, I guess non-Igbo, from south-east and south-south who seem to understand the ill-motivated socio-politico-economic dichotomy mounted in Nigeria by the northern and southwestern political elites.

ZUBY77:
Apparently, the presidency are bunch of animals.
Your citizens are being killed left and right and you don't see the need to dialogue with some peaceful protesters.

Send your soldiers down there and see how many of them that will remain to fight Boko Haram.

You thought Jonathan was weak, watch out for MEND, they are coming too.
I heard OPC just launched radio station..
You boasted of defeating Maitasine, here is a new model Maitasine coming your way..
Defeat them again.

I pity you though.

Bros yet these goons still wonder why people with sound social order above their shoulders are fighting very hard to leave the cesspit called Nigeria.

Beside Ndiigbo and few Biafrans, the southern Nigeria is inhabited by the most idiotic group of people that ever walked the surface of the earth.

boman2014:
The Nigerian presidency has warned those agitating for a breakaway Biafra republic to have a rethink, saying the federal government would not fold its hands and allow anyone plunge the country into crisis.



Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, who gave the warning on Saturday, in Jos, said government would not watch while some individuals and groups create unnecessary tension in the country in the guise of seeking to break away from Nigeria.

“We need to build the civic capacity to defeat the false and dangerous premises and assumption of violence extremism. Never again should we allow mindless violence inspired by false and evil precepts to threaten our national security,” Mr. Osinbajo said.

“Let me again call on persons or group in the country who have some grievance or disaffection to submit to peaceful and democratic means of expressing themselves.”

The vice president spoke at the graduation ceremony of the Executive Course 37 of the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS) Kuru, which graduated 63 participants Saturday.
In his spech, Mr. Osinbajo reminded those embarking on mass protest for Biafra that their “right to protest is limited by the rights of others to safety and peaceful existence”.

“We can offer our country opinion without violating the law of the land or threatening law and order.”
He urged the protesters to join hands with the Buhari-led administration to develop Nigeria, saying the administration would soon end the Boko Haram insurgency in the country.

“Let me reiterate that Boko Haram terrorism as well as their ideology will soon be defeated and consigned to history,” Mr. Osinbajo said.
He admitted there were educational setbacks in the country, but said the APC-led administration would tackle the challenges in the sector as a means of ensuring better future for Nigeria’s younger generation.

“While accepting that our educational system is in a dangerously parlous state, the solutions are obvious even if not easy,” the Vice-President said.

“We have to focus on early child education, retrain teachers, ensure that our curricular will prepare our children for the 21st century.”
He charged the NIPSS new graduates to use the experiences garnered during the 10-month course to develop Nigeria in their fields of endeavour.

Earlier in an address, the Director General of NIPSS, Ahmed Tijani, said the course’s 37 participants made valuable contributions for national development, particularly in the educational sector.

PREMIUM TIMES learnt that with Saturday’s graduation, NIPSS has since 1979, when it was established, graduated 1781 course participants.

If not for anything, the idiocy frequently exhibited by most Nigerians is enough for certain group to sue for self-determination. The IPOB has called for a valid action to leave the cesspit called Nigeria. One wonders why the presidency is busy talking about tension instead of discussing valid points raised by IPOB. I guess lack of critical thinking is one bane of progress in the zoo called Nigeria.

By AbdulSalam Muhammad
KANO – The march towards 2015 General Election took a dangerous dimension in Kano Wednesday following calls by youths under the auspices of Arewa Youth Development Foundation for the division of Nigeria as a political entity.

The protest that was held outside the palace of the Emir of Kano shortly after a courtesy call on the on the monarch, attracted hundreds of youths believed to be students drawn from tertiary institution in Kano.

Emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi II, appealed for calm and enjoins the youth to imbibe the lesson of peace in their entire endeavour considering the critical role they play in nation building.

Sanusi II told the protesting youths during a courtesy call on him that “it is only natural that people of different and divergent culture to live in one entity as a nation, and I enjoin you people to imbibe the lesson of peace considering your role in nation development”.

The youth carrying placard with inscription that support the dissolution of the country hold a rally outside the palace and was addressed by the Secretary General of the Group, Comrade Alfred Solomon who decaalred that their stand was informed by what he called “continued intimidation of Northerners by the federal Government.”

Some of the placard bore the message “Hold your petro dollars, let everyone goes his direction”, Southerners are not welcome here in the north”, Southerners must Go, Shegu” Nigeria belong to all of us not militants” we say no to Northern identification in southern Nigeria”.

Other messages on the placards also reads “Southerners are militants, kidnappers/ rituals, armed robbers, drug pushers, terrorists, sons/daughters are products of baby factory”.

A prepared speech jointly signed by National President and Secretary General, Barrister Aliyu M Usman, and Alfred Solomon respectively but read by the Secretary General during the protest urged northerners to “rise and support agitation for peaceful dissolution of this union called Nigeria for every region to go its own way.”

Alfred directed that “we urged all artisans, students, public and private sector servants , traders business holders currently operating , residing or intending to do so in any part of Nigeria to relocate back home within the next two weeks”
Alfred Solomon in the same vein further advised non Northerners residing in any part of the northern Nigeria to relocate to their various regins of origin within two weeks to make room for accommodating our northern brothers who would be returning home.

Solomon noted that the “measure would bring an end to the mutual suspicion that is presently causing some southern states to demand Northerners to obtain resident permits and perhaps any similar action that may arise from northern state Government as a consequence”.

The rally that was originally schedule to criss cross designated streets in Kano was cancelled while no reason was given also by the organizers for canceling of visit to the Governor, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso at the Government House.

One wonder why such agitation has fizzled out since the election of Daura Dumbass called Muhammadu Buhar, a northerner. It appears northerners believe in 'One Nigeria" only when a northerner is the president of Nigeria. What a dumbass country.

pryme: well the survey is complete, it turns out those that run from state to state agitating for this THING are all jobless, I mean how can you explain having so much time do indulge in this, ofcos the fear of a sack will no make you leave your job for this cross country jamboree.

there is a story in the bible about talents, the master rewarded the servants that made use of what was given to them, even the servant that was given little multiplied the little that was given to him.
I want to ask you Biafra wannabes what have done with what you have?

do you ppl think when you have Bia(whatever), the shoe maker on the street will become a governor? that illiterates will be given ministerial appointments? that every one in the kingdom of Bia(whatever) will grow wings and become fairies? that you guys will see God? food will be dropping from the sky? that everyman will own a castle?

your destiny is in your hands NOT Biafra, it's not up to Biafra to make you who you want to be.

if you can't make it in Nigeria, then trust me, you won't make it in your Cage

Rise above Hate

Above crap shows why anybody should not look further why the Nigeria is a dumbass zoo that holds irrelevant animals. Agitation for self-determination is not left mostly in the hands of paycheck earners.

cramjones:
I have personally decided to denounce APC, not because I hate the party. In fact, it is the opposite. I love and still support PMB, however, I want to be a more neutral commentator so that the government of the day will sit up. More so, since the elections were done, I have not been on the payroll of the APC. My loyalty now lies 100% to the Nigerian people.

Today we are at an unprecedented and precarious time in our history. Our economy grows at less than 2 percent, unemployment is at its highest, Boko Haram continues it carnage in the North East - a group recently named the most deadliest terror group in the world, even worse than ISIS. Furthermore, Fulani Herdsmen where ranked number 4 in the world, as they continue to invade Nigeria's rural communities and spill blood. The SE is becoming chaotic and unstable from the IPOB, Biafra and Massob secessionist. We are in medieval and perilous times. For me, I can only be a neutral commentator, giving my support and criticizing as necessary. Nigeria needs us to give it her best.

Permit me to quote my friend and brother -Femi Fani-Kayode

"According to a survey carried out by the United Kingdom's Independent newspaper two of the four most deadly terrorist organisations in the world today are in northern Nigeria. According to them Boko Haram is now officially the world's most deadly terror group whilst the Fulani militants are number four. In view of this why would anyone be surprised by calls for self-determination in the south?" - Femi Fani-Kayode

If for any reason under the sun biafra stands (which it won't) , they re going to be one hell of an aggressive, angry nation.......everything you ever hear is "war" , "death" etc. Can't you advocate for your biafra without wishing nigeria and her children downfall?
Most of them don't even have concrete knowledge about what is going on and they are beating drums of war........
anyway this is what idleness can cause. Show me an enlightened man with occupied hands that will pay attention to this or have the time to carry placards over his head.......

Nigeria can be heaven on the earth after Biafra existed and I shall not give a hoot. Unease lies the head that wears the crown. Those who are inherently afraid of the reality of Biafra have bitter tinkering to do.

Admiralty616:
This elders probably witnessed the civil war/biafra war but did not tell these so-called youths what their eyes saw. Experience pass knowledge.

Are you dumbass fools think that agitation for Self-Determination equates war? Europeans have recently witnessed disintegration of countries in the continent without wars. Is warmongering among Africans an evidence of idiocy or backwardness? What is the fear about the disintegration of the zoo called Nigeria? As long as there is a Republic of Igbo land, I do not give a ratass if Nigeria is divided into 350 nation states.

The Eze of Igbo noted that those pursuing the issue were

Don't get me wrong, you don't need a degree to be appointed a minister neither is one needed to be a performer. However, for record purposes, I just want to know where our honourable Minister of Environment got her first degree.

Does she have a degree? And if yes, from where?

Her boss does not have ordinary secondary school leavers' certificate.

Kyase:
The apex lgbo socio- cultural organisation, Ohaneze Ndigbo, has warned the south East, south south youths to stop the secession agitation, saying that it will never work.

Rather, the body called on the youths to give support to the administration of President Mohammadu Buhari for him to have a look at the dilapidated roads in the zone.

Briefing reporters Friday in Awka, the chairman forum of state presidents of Ohaneze in the seven Igbo speaking states, Elder Chris Eluemunoh, said the group would never support agitation of Biafra as being demanded by the youth.

The seven states of Ohaneze included Anambra, Abia, Ebonyi, Enugu,Imo, Delta and Rivers.

Before now, the youths in the zone had held cities like Aba, Awka, Onitsha, Owerri, Enugu, Abakiliki, Asaba and Portharcourt hostage in the past weeks calling for the release of Nnamdi Kanu, Benjamin Onwuka and others by the federal government.

The youths were doing the demonstrations under the aegis of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) with few other members of the Movement for the Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) involved.

However, the Ohaneze chairman Friday said that what the youths were doing could be described as pure madness, adding that it would have been a different ball game if they were protesting against the bad state of roads instead of agitation for Biafra.

According to Eluemunoh, “Ohaneze as Igbo cultural group cannot support insurgency, we are totally against it and we will never support it.

“Anybody that has any issue with the federal government should go for dialogue with the president and that is why we went for national conference, Nigeria is a one united country and we do not want any other

“I believe what the youths are doing is to call the attention of the president to see the infrastructural decay in the zone, this region has been abandoned and neglected and not by Buhari, but by previous administrations started by Olusegun Obasanjo which Goodluck Jonathan also tried to bring back.

“Ohaneze is calling on the federal government to declare state of emergency in the zone on roads for purposes of infrastructural development and that is what the youths are saying, we believe and not secession.

“Our president should forget what happened in the last election and Ohaneze is going to give him full support through prayers and other means and in making sure that Nigeria stays as one indivisible entity.

“Therefore, the youths should stop such agitations for Biafra because Biafra died in 1970 and we are saying it again that Ohaneze will never support it,” Eluemunoh warned.

However, the group said if Nnamdi Kanu and others who were spearheading such agitation had committed any offence, they should face the law, but if not, they should be freed.

Furthermore, he debunked the allegation that the youths were being supported by top Igbo politicians, adding that if indeed they were getting any support from anywhere, it should be from outside Nigeria.

He said they believed that such restiveness by the youths could stop if roads like Oba-Okigwe road, Owerri – Portharcourt road which Ohaneze described as the worst in Nigeria were fixed.

“What they call agitation for Biafra is not in the dictionary of Ohaneze Ndigbo and we will never give it a look in, what Ohaneze is saying is that president Buhari’s administration should be supported to move this country forward,” said Eluemunoh.

When issues as self-determination and economic productivity make themselves available for debate, the statements that emanate from certain sections of Nigeria buttress the fact that most Nigerians are painfully idiotic. The agenda for self-determination are not limited to money, jobs and roads. If such is the case, the Scottish would not have dreamt of independent nation to be called Republic of Scotland. Nigeria is a natural dead end and all the people see is foolish growth without progress.

In addition, most Nigerians seem to be experts on anything even things they absolutely know nothing about. It strikes my imagination how the few dumbass jackasses in Ohanaeze arrived at the conclusion that the call for independent Biafra or more preferable to me, Republic of Igbo land, is an untenable proposition. If most of these moronic goons where around in 1942, they would have said that agitation for independent Nigeria was a waste of time. It is even more plausible now than then to agitate for independent entity. Most of the campaigners for independent state of Nigeria were constantly in hiding.

The right for self-determination is not and will never be given by moronic Ohanaeze. Such right is granted by God to people who wished to exercise it. When the chilled wind which conveys the mandate of the IPOB blows across the cesspit called Nigeria, most dumbass stiffs in Ohanaeze may not know what actually hit them. It is very good that people who could have sabotaged the will of IPOB if they had maintained silence are now making themselves known to the real agitators of the self-determination for reconstituted Biafra or Republic of Igbo land.

The existence of Biafra or even Republic of Igbo land does not spell the end of Nigeria. Even if it does and so what? Those who want to remain in Nigeria are free to do so. Also those who want to belong to Oodua Republic or even Islamic Republic of Arewa can do so. Why must a Yari.ba or Fulani or Hausa or Kanuri or anybody for that matter be compatriots of Ndiigbo?

I have maintained that Republic of Igbo land is naturally logical as what become Igbo land will leave most Nigerians in awe.

ruggedboy01:
With what am seeing on this forum whereby a fellow biafrian from anambra will be claiming superior over other biafrians from other states got me thinking how our so called country will look like if ever we break away from Nigeria.

One NOVEL always come to my mind "ANIMAL FARM" that exactly what will happen in the land of the raising sun. What's even wrong with my igbo brothers U have no unity among yourselves and yet u want biafria

Look at how inlandtaipan and SpaceTour (biafrians) are fighting each other here
Of which Abagworo and chino are not exceptional

What is obtain in Nigeria remains in Nigeria. There should be no government institutionalization of tribalism in Republic of Igbo land or reconstituted Biafra.

3MCDO suffered minimal casualty before Operation OAU(Owerri, Aba, Umuahia). It was a mission hinged on Adekunle's over bloated ego after the spectular success his division recorded in chasing the biafran occupiers away from the Niger Delta areas. It was not part of the 3MCDO's initial battle plan. Adekunle ordered the Operation as an October 1st 1968 independence gift to General Gowon

Britain and USSR supported Nigeria, so also did France, Portugal, South Africa, Haiti, Zambia, Gabon, Tanzania, Ivory Coast support Biafra

Per the bolded, France, Portugal and South Africa did not and never supported Biafra. It is individual citizens of the countries supported Biafra. In addition, Haiti, Zambia, Gabon, Tanzania and Ivory Coast only recognized the existence of the country named Biafra. There was no military or monetary support from the only five countries that recognized Biafra.

OROSUNBOLB:
Foolishness is when you think you know it all ! Mr Biafra,please fire the first shot. Trust me,your arms struggle has been defeated even before you start it ! I will be surprised if you ever understand my point here. I earlier warned those fools following kanu that he would be picked up whenever he visited Nigeria and that nothing would happen. Already there is panic among Igbo communities in Kano. Igbo/Biafra can never defeat Nigeria in warfare;it won't happen. Kanu's method is doomed from day one!

Foolishness is the bedrock of a person who thinks self-determination is progenitor of war. I guess only dumbass Africa has lazy bums who are afraid of building a nation state and are mostly Nigerians. I cannot communicate with Yari.ba or Hausa of Fulani or Kanuri without employing the help a colonial language. I honestly need Republic of Igbo land not Biafra. Staying in the cesspit called Nigeria is a waste of destiny.

You can shove the crude oil if you wish.

If the IPOB could get help from the AREWA to split Nigeria, it is a welcome idea.

Following protests seeking for secession to form the Republic of Biafra in some South East and South South states, the Cross River State government has issued a stern warning against such in its domain.

The government said its attention has been drawn to planned protest march by some elements outside the state and urged the people of the state, especially the youths not to allow themselves to be used to achieve any self-serving interest.

The State Security Adviser, Mr Jude Ngaji, said in a statement in Calabar Tuesday said that security agencies are on red alert to ensure that no unauthorized march, procession or protest takes place in the state.

“The state government attaches great importance to the unity of the country and warned that any person or group of persons who embark on any protest without a written permission from the police shall be made to face the full force of the law,” the statement read.



http://thenationonlineng.net/biafra-cross-river-issues-stern-warning-against-protests/

Democracy is not limited to conducting silly and rigged election. The freedom of expression is the cardinal point of democracy. The Cross State is not country outside Nigeria therefore the IPOB group has every fundamental and constitutional right to have peaceful demonstration in Cross River State. Where was the idiotic government of Cross River State when Bakassi was ceded to Cameroon?
