Look, your desperation is obvious. You know Obi cannot win, based on his lack of capacity, in contrast to Tinubu, and you are seeking the help of the US, UK, ICJ, UN etc as you have always lobbies them to grant you Biafra.

What I dislike is how you guys never believe in building capacity, the story of Obi's political career, and you think last minute blackmail, threats and excessive talk can carry the day for you. Remember "all eyes on the judiciary"? What did it achieve?

Bro, you lot will always fail and fall short in Nigerian politics for the fact you are clannish and don't believe in investing in others or building political bridges and affiliations.

All these praises for the misguided Davido is because you believe words and blackmail influence Nigerian politics. They do not. Political capacity is what matters.

Stop feigning ignorance of what obtains in our nation. If Tinubu is 100% dedicated to removing Adeleke then he is gone and such will be achieved legitimately.

Let Davido report to Trump, Putin, Modi, Xi Jinping and UK PM Burnham even. Nothing will happen.

People in some parts of Nigeria are on a high .

Do you think even in their wildest dreams that Trump, Putin, Modi, Xi Jinping care , when there are so many issues pressing their neck in there own countries .

We are yet to see the son( half male and half female) of the new Nigeria Candidate

Are you this naturally humorous in real life also ,

The largest refinery in the world and built stage by stage in 2000s itself , is in India and it is a country which imports 90 percent of crude .

The city of of Jamnagar itself refines 1.8 million barrels per day and has 2 refineries , one led by Asia richest man about 1.3 million barrel and other by Russians and they brought out 500,000 barrels refinery from other Indian conglomerate .

Jamnagar is city which 95 percent of Indians dont even know .

Do you know that today Nigeria has broken records as the country with the lowest life expectancy in the world? Do you know Burundi, Chad, Niger, Somalia, Bangladesh, C.A.R, Liberia, Sierra loane have higher life expectancy than Nigeria under APC and Oga at the top?
It is amazing how you guys say what you say, wike, apabio, oga at the top etc all have their kids graduating from foreign universities, they are sick they fly abroad on private jets while you your own kids have to go to Bolanle Grammer school and use baba tope medical home or drink agbo from kolaq, even take and opa eyin from hawkers.

Obi,Atiku children and wifes are in abroad and coming to Nigeria for flexing and its same for Tinubu or Buhari children .

Sad part is when countries are taking abouts AI, Chips ,Semi conductors ,EVs or renewable energy etc .Entire Africa is nowhere to be found .
We are 20 years behind India in all these and u can forget about US and China .

We need to travel out and work in real industries ,instead of going for house boys jobs in Oyinbo countries .

This is moon not earth ok na.

Ironfaceman:
God bless you professor for bringing up this matter in Delta State.

Thank you also for giving this malaise a name AFROPHOBIA.

As you rightly said there are thousands of Indians over staying in southafrica. If they say is xenophobia why are the Indians not molested.

Your staying in other man country depends on their wishes.
Visa or who to deport is for individual countries to decide

Afrojuju2017:
30 million toilets, a country that has over 1billion people, that's less than a drop in the ocean.

People are still open defecating in the ghanges throwing dead bodies into the same river that sustains over 50% of the water needs of the citizens . They have cities with the he highest sit pollution think PH x 10.

Abeg nothing for India that's why it's young people are the most migratory bunch, and they have a very aggressive way of taking over places they cone to.

Quit ur stupid stereotypes about other countries ,all aided and abetted by Oyinbo media .

They said the same nonsense when China is growing up ,or even Japan during 70s and 80s . They want to attract gullible persons all across the the World into believing their propaganda against every country threatening their dominance of World order .

If Nigeria gets it act together in next 10 years , the same propaganda will be unleashed against us .

One thing i agree with u, is Indians and Nigerians have zero civic senses, which enable easy propaganda for western powers .

For ur kind information Ganges river has become far better . due to stoppage of Urban and Industrial sewage. A simple google search has gotten information for me .BBC and CNN exists for a purpose .

MartinCorridon:
Really sorry for you. I shouldn't listen to Oyinbo but you're the authority to listen to.

Really hope you don't have any kids.

We don't need more of this kind of genius

World bank is saying 7 percent of indian practice open defecation,while Nigeria is at 18 percent .

But more than that , the picture u think of India is open defecation because of oyinbo media ,daily drilling nonsense into head . while Nigeria does not come into mind ,when u think of defecation even though we are 2 and half time worse than them . because no oyinbo media talks about it ,because we are insignificant to them .
While in same data India is planning to be defecation free in next 5 years.https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SH.STA.ODFC.ZS?locations=IN

MartinCorridon:
" UK happened to them" as Nigerians often rant like illiterates.

NEVER seen a country say that about themselves.

Not even India where over 300 million practice open .... De Fee vaCation

Quit posting nonsense about India , this is the lie told again and again by oyinbo media .and swallowed by guillble people.

India has built 30 millon toilets for its poor people. between 2016 - 2021 .

its very hard to see open defecation in India ,unless u travel to poorest parts of the country .

its like travelling to kebbi state and say ,this Nigeria for u.

Iam a billionaire , so ask me anything .

The way we people are assigning titles like Billionaires ,Metropolis of small towns ,Ultra Modern markets etc is very annoying to say the least .

This kind of unnecessary boasting is getting a lot Nigerian diaspora people into trouble .

This is the reason why sensible Nigerians avoid these loud mouthed fellow country men .

More Than a Railway: How Eastern Nigeria Is Building a New Era of Shared Prosperity

Governor Alex Otti's vision for a regional rail network is about much more than laying tracks and running trains. It is about bringing people closer, opening up opportunities, and reconnecting the economies of Eastern Nigeria in ways that could transform everyday life.

Imagine waking up in Onitsha, boarding a comfortable train, and arriving at your office in Asaba without spending hours in traffic or worrying about bad roads. Picture a trader living in Umuahia but running a thriving business in Uyo, travelling through Ikot Ekpene and returning home the same evening. Think of a young professional who chooses to raise a family in Aba while commuting daily to Port Harcourt for work because the journey is now fast, safe and affordable.

That is what modern rail networks do. They make distance less important and opportunity more accessible.

For decades, many people have had to relocate because of work or business. A regional railway changes that. Families can remain together while pursuing careers in neighbouring states. Businesses can recruit the best talent regardless of where people live. Students can attend universities across the region without the burden of difficult road journeys.

The economic impact would be enormous.

A farmer in Abia could send fresh vegetables to markets in Port Harcourt or Uyo before they spoil. Manufacturers in Aba would move goods more quickly and at lower cost to customers across the region. Traders in Onitsha would have easier access to suppliers and buyers in Delta, Rivers and Akwa Ibom. Lower transportation costs would mean greater competitiveness, higher profits and, in many cases, lower prices for consumers.

The ripple effects would be felt everywhere.

New businesses would spring up around railway stations. Hotels, restaurants, shopping centres, warehouses and logistics companies would create thousands of jobs. Property values would rise in communities connected by rail, encouraging new housing estates and commercial developments. Investors would begin to see Eastern Nigeria not as separate states competing with one another, but as one large, vibrant economic corridor.

Tourism would also benefit. Families could spend weekends exploring cities they rarely visited before. Cultural festivals, sporting events and business conferences would attract more visitors because travelling between cities would become easier and more predictable.

Perhaps the greatest transformation would be psychological.

When people move freely, they trade more, invest more and understand one another better. The railway would strengthen relationships between communities in Abia, Anambra, Enugu, Imo, Ebonyi, Rivers, Akwa Ibom and Delta. It would encourage collaboration instead of competition and remind people that prosperity grows faster when regions work together.

Older generations still remember the spirit of the former Eastern Region, where commerce, education and industry flourished through cooperation and shared purpose. A regional rail network offers an opportunity to revive that spirit—not by looking backwards, but by building a modern economy that serves today's realities.

Governor Alex Otti revealed that Abia State initially commissioned a Chinese company to design a rail system connecting major parts of the state. However, the government later recognised that a stand-alone railway would not unlock the region's full potential. The vision expanded into discussions with neighbouring South-East and South-South states to create an integrated rail network linking Port Harcourt, Aba, Umuahia, Enugu, Owerri, Uyo and other key cities while connecting with the federal Port Harcourt–Maiduguri railway.

If this vision is realised, future generations may look back and see this railway not simply as another infrastructure project, but as the moment Eastern Nigeria chose integration over isolation, partnership over boundaries, and shared prosperity over fragmented growth.

Sometimes, the most powerful thing a railway carries is not passengers or cargo—it carries the hopes of an entire region determined to move forward together.

It makes perfect sense as south east has a small land mass making it viable.
Passenger rail is not viable in America as the distances are huge while it hugely big in U.K.

Since entire South east region is the size of Oyo state. The plans might be feasible after all.

yarimo:
He was just lying anyhow, OBI claim all his commissioners are Muslims

Pure words written in marble.

Ha ha .

Obi , please name atleast 2 Muslim commissioners,who served under u while u r serving .

Doctors are in highest paid bracket all across the world especially in Western World , Very few doctors are coming back to China and India and u expect them to come back to Nigeria .

People got accustomed to hearing Sob stories from lower wage Nigerians and how bills are killing them , but very rarely have any Doctors of all nationalities whether Nigeria ,China or India have spoken about it .

Doctors , if they are well mannered and accustomed to Western system . they are balling and this cuts across all nations

USA is best ,canada is very overrated .

The entire economy of canada is in doldrums .people from China and India , who went there having high hopes are returning back .

Canada and UK ,only if u want to emigrate out of Nigeria by all means ,try these countries .
Due to automation and Russia -Ukraine war jobs are getting tighter in western counteries , unless u have noting to lose and want to work even as care givers and security guards ,then they are jobs .

USA, Australia, Ireland and some western european countries are better for job holders from Nigeria .

Money is shifting from Western world to Asia at a alarming level and thats future according to experts .

However none of the Asian countries are open for African countries .

IGBOSON1:
I gave a robust response yesterday to this lying, provocative post, and sharply my post was hidden! You can have an idea of the true identity behind certain monikers based on the leeway they're given to make unfounded and false posts, as well as the speed with which robust engagements with such posts are hidden!

What is there to hide and hate , when entire region history is known to whole wide world , from high bride prices to cost of burial in that region and making u guys chase money at all cost .

sometime it is better to reflect on ur society as a whole .

Recently a front page news about burial in Abia state caught my eye and like anyone from outside .
I ask this simple question . Is South East ifast becoming a burial ground only .

Putin has said previously about Africa in general, but no where is it more evident than in South East.

South East is becoming a very big cemetery.

The other day ,one of my cousin traveled from calabar to Umuezeinyi for burial of his friend, all he could see is empty buildings and Graves, in the compounds with no sign of life .

Is the abnormal bride prices and even burial processes causing the youth of the region to go in search of crime money in Asia and rest of the world.

Let's discuss

South East is fast becoming a burial ground.

Putin has said previously about Africa in general, but no where is it more evident than in South East.

I pity u

Don't pity me man.

Pity the guys facing death by hanging in Asian countries.

What is worse single mom vs divorced mom .
Divorced mom has a history which can be collaborated .

The priest might have developed panic attacks due to being posted in the region where ESN and IPOB are know to target catholic clergy.
This is the came situation among catholic clergy in Lagos also when they are being posted to east.

RIP father.

This is why Nigeria will be forever be backward.

Bro , this football is just a time pass .
Know this thing and no peace .

These things are used to hypnotize the poor masses in South America and Africa ,while they stop worrying about the big picture .

China and India which accounts for for 35 percent of world population does not achieve and dont want to hold a world cup .

Lets talk about China .

China is 1000 times more powerful than Qatar and have better capabilities , Why it is not hosting a World cup till today .

Ask ur selves a question . the entire media rights for this world cup has been sold at last minute to China and India .

These people have got bigger priorities to fix .

FIFA is just a religion ,which gives unwanted hopes for poor .

For ur added information , no Rich or Upper Middle class in majority of UK follow Football passionaly ,these people follow Cricket .

Football is for poor and for Northern England .

Everbody in upper classes knows , Religion and Football is just a time pass .

Why do please in or from South East bury their loved ones in their compounds or among living beings .

This problem of not burying in a cemetery is most prevalent in South East and less in south west .

I have not seen oyinbo or asians burying their loved ones among living beings or in there houses .

GanagiBitrus:
1-0 Croatia

Ghana get luck say dem don already qualify.
Croatia playing far better than them.

not a fan of football , but this have to be said .

looking at BBC sports page , i got the impression that England is far far superior side and analysts are already mentioned that this once in a generation squad or what not .

until ,i have seen the group stats and england are ordinary at best ,with 2 draws .

The propaganda going on ,whether its Footbal , Politics or anywhere will put Gobbels to shame for life .

BATified2023:
see the gatekeeper of life saying people won't live beyond 55

The problem with u lots is that your opposition is highly unintelligent, u people aren't wise especially u obi supporters.

Instead of playing opposition u are playing hate n they are two different games cos how do u convince people it's politics u are playing but u are wishing people short life or death because they don't support your candidate

Does your candidate have capacity to add one minute to your life?

Didn't people die when your agulu packaged fraud was governor in Anambra?

So once obi becomes president, everyone will b 100 years before they die?

Obi is the worst politician ,he is a snake charmer ,who sells snake oil .

I have hopes still on Tinubu , the state police is a good start , if he restructure nigeria in the 2 term , i will be his life long fan .
else i prefer Nigeria to disintegrate and each region goes on its own away .

Pakistan is definitely better than Nigeria in many metrics for a average Pakistani compared to Average Nigerian living in Nigeria .

If Nigerian politicians of all parties , from president to Governors continue on this path , the day will come , when we start emigrating to this country .

Growing up ,who would have thought in there wildest dream to emigrate to India about 20 years back and start any business ,be it import export ,software ,drugs smuggling etc in India of all places .

All the past and present politicians of Nigeria needs to be eliminated for country to progress and citizens to have mental reorientation ,afterall where did politicians came from . not from planet mars .

Age has definitely caught up with Tinubu , he would have been the best president in 2015 than now .Unfortunately that the reality here .

Day by day loosing all hopes in Nigeria and its best to divide into Individual countries . whatever tribe can go whoever they wish .

Ha ha ha 😂
