Awkward moment when a Yoruba man is fighting everything to be with Igbos.... either as southern Nigeria or One nigeria....
pls face Odua Republic.... Clean country called BIAFRA is what we want no Yoruba contamination.

What are the good things visible in your erosion-infested lands except the agitation for Biafra with Niger Delta oil as your trophy? Go and write it down, any successful Biafra without ND's oil is as futile as GEJ till 2019

tpiadotcom:
the point of reference is a 68 year old man, not a minor or a youth.

do you need to be told that and why?

Did constitution forbid 68 year old man from contesting? I don't get your point.

TimothyNkenu:
I don't know who mentioned PDP here.

Now run along.

But it was evident that APC was single-handedly mentioned and castigated: get your fact right

Psalm18:
It seems the logical thing to do.
He came second in the primaries.
The winner is dead.
Second should replace him, Faleke didn't contest.

Sure! If the best student who is going to represent his school in a competition dies, his running mate automatically should replace him.

TimothyNkenu:
The fact that APC had someone like Audu as its member shows that this country would just keep going round and round the same circles.

While PDP having someone like Jona Jang who is old enough to be the grandpa of Audu in the House shows that this country will not just keep going round and round the same circle shey?

You get to hear billions trillions and this people are still walking the street unharmed, Nigeria is a big ZOO, common wealth meant for everyone only few embezzeled them, Baboons and monkeys are still in the cage because Nigeria is no man's country. Where is the patriotism? Where is to be faithful loyal and honest in your anthem? In my country there's patriotism that's why all BIAFRANS don't need to be told what to do, in Biafra we don't need criminal code or penal code because we all know what's good and bad.

You mean Biafra leaders are saints or you don't know what to do?

Geniro:
This olodo even cited dates when Goodluck wasn't the president, how far can you go with your foolishness.

2 years as Deputy, six years as President is equal to 8 years in PDP's governance in Presidency. Oloshi! I don't know why you guys are just deficient when it comes to intelligent discussion

16 years of deception. 16 years of window decoration and dressing. 16 of impunity. 16 years of evil. How can change come in 6months

henryutd:
Animals.

I hate lies. How can I continue with APC till 2019? God help me and my country.

If you can survive the maladministration of PDP for 16 years, His grace is still there for you to continue with APC

This is one of the reasons i have not taken the opposition party PDP seriously.
Most of the economic backslashes we are experiencing now was inherited. The opposition will be quick to point out how bad our economy has degenerated forgetting that some of us are more intelligent and reasonable to know that the economy of a nation does not start crashing in a matter of months. It is a build up of failed policies and programmes cluelessly initiated or poorly implemented.
They're always quick to point to the positives of this present administration as a programme conceived and initiated by the GEJ but will distance themselves from the mess they created. What a hypocrisy!

excel101:
. Stop that trash u're saying. u keep blaming PDP for ur non-performance wen u re supposed to take charge. Its very evident dat apc has no plans for Nigeria.

I know PDP has plan, but it was not achievable for 16 years

However, where is the fulfillment of this promise alone?

TimothyNkenu:
Now I wonder who's actually clueless.

See who is clueless -

omolami:
Throughout Diezani/ GEJ tenure fuel was never scarce. The only time it became scarce was towards the tail end of GEJ tenure when Buhari started claiming that fuel subsidy is a ruse and that he does not know what fuel subsidy is.[/s] Therefore fuel marketers started hording the fuel since they were afraid Buhari would not support subsidy. Today Buhari is paying subsidy and fuel situation worse than ever before. Nigerians now sleep at petrol stations in order to buy fuel. What a shameless change.

Agony of a looser

Hiploko:
just like PDP faced worse problems at the start of the 16years caused by military rule. Receive sense!!! Stop d blame gane and rule. Power dey ur hands now... Rule mehn!!!

Stop sounding like a victim of 'GEJ till 2019' ! You have sixteen solid years to solve problems without any solutions and you are expecting a magic within the six months. What an irony!

M4gunners:
Simply because you have decided to live with propaganda.Now let me ask you, before APC came into power, are they aware of all this problems before making all the campaign promises?

If they are aware of the problems that have been existing for the past 16 years without solution, you expect them to solve the problem within a year? Only half-baked technocrat reasons like this. Was PDP not aware of the problems before gaining the mantle of leadership too?

With the highest boom of oil price in the market, depletion of reserves, removal of subsidy etc PDP has the greatest opportunity to turn things around in this country but reverse is the case. GEJ borrowed to pay FG workers, Nigerian experience the longest strike in Universities (11 months) reserves made by previous administration were spent etc

You want to experience magic but the price of petroleum at present is the half of what it was in the past 4 years: debt servicing are on ground: GEJ was unable to pay marketers their indebtedness: etc

it is high time you wake up from your slumber.

[[s]quote author=nwonufestus post=40348932]Something is going on in Nigeria which i try so much to
understand, how come whenever the name Biafra is
mentioned, the Northern and South-West get much concerned,
"Kill then all for saying it" And when they fail to kill them all,
they began to lobby with the Dialogue ideology, How come this
people's going away from Nigeria seems to be important while
you said they are useless and nothing to write home about. i
wounder where this will take Nigeria to. The idea of one
Nigeria, is not actually for the interest of every Nigerian, but
rather for the interest of few individuals that control the
economy of the Nation as their private business. from my own
experience, there is no one Nigeria. Biafran has endured one-
Nigeria ideology for more than hundred years, i think, it's time
to face the reality and build our individual nations.[/quote][/s]

South South Niger Delta will never join biafra

Igbo are using the support they gave to Jonathan in 2015 election as blackmail to convert Niger delta struggle to biafra. Niger delta struggle is resource control and true federalism. This deception will not work. They only supported Jonathan because they got alot of appointments under Jonathan. They are just selfish and greedy people. Niger Delta Struggle is completely different from biafra agitation. Igbo supported Obasanjo against thier own son and hero Ojukwu in 2003 election, they should go and claim yoruba instead.

As far as I am concern Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa are all benefiting from the current system. After all an Igbo man Gen Agunyi Ironsi created the Unitary System for Nigeria in 1966 that we are complaining against today. Gen Agunyi Ironsi set the foundation for the destruction of regional federalism in Nigeria. if not for his love for total control and domination (The disease of an average Igbo man), Niger delta would have be enjoying 50% resource control today. When Isaac Adaka Boro wanted to form Ijaw Nation Republic in 1966 it was Igbo Head of State Gen Agunyi Ironsi that fought him with a 12 day war.

The Igbo claim to be one of us because some South South states were part of the old Eastern region. First of all, eastern region was created by Nigeria for Nigeria convenience. It was not a decision of the nationalities that made up the old eastern region. Secondly before most people forget, today Edo and Delta state were never at anytime part of eastern region. Edo and Delta states were first part of Western region later became Midwestern region, then change to Bendel state before becoming Edo and Delta state today. Some tribes speak Yoruba in Edo and Delta state. Why is yoruba not claiming Edo and Delta state the way igbo is claiming Rivers and Delta states because some people speak ibo in those states?

Igbo may have succeeded in brainwashing some South South people that they are one of us, it is a big lie. They may have succeeded in brainwashing some of us that only hausa and yoruba is the problem of South South, it is a big lie. They are the same as far as I am concern.

The problem with Igbo is greed, self-entitlement and born to rule, control and exploit mentality. Qatar is smaller than Bayelsa in population and half d size of Bayelsa state by landmass. Bayelsa is four times the size of Singapore. if Qatar and Singapore can be a country, why cant we have an Ijaw nation as a country? Do u think Ijaw people dont want to be like Qatar and enjoy their oil alone like Qatar does? Note: Bayelsa State is d smallest state in the south south by population and second to the last by landmass!!


Below is the size of south south states and south east states. South South is almost 3 times the size of south East.
Yet the population of South east is almost 80% of south south population base on 2006 census. But by the time you add igbo who are currently leaving outside south east, you will discover that thier population is more than all the south south put together. More than 90% of the resources (oil, gas, limestones,etc) are in the south south. The whole of South East is landlock with no direct access to the sea or atlantic ocean. but almost all the south south states have direct assess to the sea and atlantic ocean. Some will say they have River Niger. River Niger is not a sea or an ocean for big Ships.

Tell me why South South Nations will want to form a country with south east if they have a choice ? all south east will bring to the table is population and domination? The total oil production from south east is not up to 10% of south south oil production!

If you are the leader of south south nations will you advice them to form a country with south east if they have the option of forming their own country alone? give a sincere answer!!

As far as I am concern, as unbrainwashed south south , there is no difference between the Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa. To me, these are three major tribe struggling and fighting for Supiriority. Whenever any of the three is loosing, he shout marginalization.

During Jonathan govt, the Igbos were gaining and were in control and were happy. The Yoruba were losing and were shouting marginalization. The hausa/fulani were not happy because they were not fully in control. For the North we can slightly understand because in the 16years of democracy (May 1999 to May 2015) the south ruled 13.3years while the North had just 2.7years

The Igbo don't love south south more than the hausa or Yoruba love us. All the three tribe are all struggling for the control of south south oil. None of the three is better than the other as far as we south south are concern.

The only place south south nationalities agree with Igbo is Nigeria should divide . However while south south clamour for succession is base on lack of true fiscal Federalism and resource control, on the other hand, igbo clamour for succession is base on IGBO BORN TO RULE, CONTROL AND EXPLOIT MENTALITY. Igbo make noise and claim d north have born to rule mentality because of Sokoto State former licence plate motto of born to rule which they have change. The People with the true born to rule mentality are d Igbo. it is because they are not having thier way that they are complaining and making all d noise all over Nigeria.

But how and why Nigeria will and should divide, what we want and what they want is as different as d distance of the earth to d moon.

South south want resource control or thier own freedom. we will support Biafra as Igbo only nation while they should support us to form our own nation or nations. But trying to add us as an appendage to Biafra will never happen.

If south south join Biafra, our individual identities will be wiped out in less than 50years. They will convert every south south nationality to Igbo. And they will so much take charge of the oil and resources with reckless abandon without any regard to d minorities.

LET EVERYONE FORMS HIS OWN NATION IF WE CAN'T GET 50% RESOURCE CONTROL. SOUTH SOUTH NATIONS DONT WANT IGBO, YORUBA OR HAUSA IN THIER NATION. WE DONT WANT ANY DOMINANT TRIBE TO CONTROL US IF OR WHEN NIGERIA DIVIDE.

They will argue that there are some igbo in rivers state, delta state and edo state. As far as i am concern Igbo speaking people in south south will join Niger delta republic or confederation. Their are Hausa people in Niger, there are Yoruba people in Benin Republic and Togo. Does that make those yoruba and hausa speaking people in those countries Nigerians?

The south south nationalities can form a confederation with United Arab Emirate template, where seven different nationalities came together to form a confederation with each nationality having some form of autonomy.

if the south east want to join the confederation they can join. We can't leave nigeria and go and form another normal single country were there is a dominant tribe. That will be moving from frying pan to fire.

Just like the United Ararb emirate asked qatar and behrain to join them, but qatar and behrain choose to form thier individual countries.

What Biafra represent is a single country with a powerful centre where a dominant tribe can control. South south dont want that. If we must fight or struggle for succession, we need a new name like "United State of niger delta" or any other name which clearly shows a union rather than a single country.

We need to set the record straight before south south nations make the mistake of south Sudan. It is more than Four years south sudan left
sudan to form thier country. Since that time south sudan has been in War while North Sudan enjoy peace. This was because nations in
south sudan came together to form a single country without ensuring that thier difference in ethnicity was fully discuss. Some
part of south sudan are now feeling marginalized. That is exactly what will happen if Igbo succeed in forcing south south nations into
Biafra. That so called Biafra wont have peace. It will be another Somalia!!!!

For peace to rain let Igbo form Biafra from the Five south east state and let the the six states in south south form a confederation or seperate nations. Anything outside this will never work.

I do not hate Igbo people. Many of my friends are Igbo. I only hate thier deceit and greed. what is good for the goose is good for the gander.
What we dont want is a dominant tribe simple. If south south join Biafra, that country will be 60% Igbo. How do you think other minorities can compete in that kind of country? Whether we like it or not we both know that Igbo are not diplomatic people by nature. That will lead to complete extinction of other tribe. in less than 50years they will make the whole Biafra Ibo without any consideration.

I dont hate Igbo. But i hate when i know the Biafra they seek is a Biafra with current south south as an appendage to it.
Why cant they support our freedom, and we will support thier freedom. Why do igbo make it look like it is wrong for Niger Delta people to seek thier own freedom outside Biafra? In biafra current south south minority will be like conquered people. God forbid that to happen.

a quote from Isaac Adaka Boro Autobiography (wriiten himself). Read Chapter 5 - Campus Politics
http://www.adakaboro.org/the12dayrev/chapter-5-campus-politics.
This was the campaign statement of his opponent for UNN SUG presidency:
"My opponent, Ejiogu, took the floor when I had finished, and what did he say? "Ladies and gentleman, this is a crucial time in Nigeria when we should not allow a vocal minority to rule an obvious majority.
These words still ring in my memory because, as my opponent put it, they are crucial not only to me but to my people, the Ijaws. Most of the alien students walked out of the hall and it seemed as if a spell was cast on the atmosphere. The campaigns ended solemnly and the result of the election was again one way. Ejiogu won with his majority. The last minute strategy. A Cameroonian friend of mine, John Ngole, promptly resigned his secretaryship of the Historical Society in protest."

I am very sure that Nigeria will divide faster if Igbo seek Biafra with 5 south east state alone and Niger delta republic seek a country with the 6 South south states alone at the same time. Once the Hausa and Yoruba sees that Igbo are supporting a Niger Delta republic separate from Biafra, they will see it as true struggle. But if the struggle is about Biafra with south south in it, where Igbo will gain south south resources with Yoruba and Hausa loosing out, I bet you until South South oil finishes, Nigeria wont divide.

If we cant get resource control, we don't need to form a single country with Igbo, we can seek for our separate nation on two front simultaneously but not on one front. What we need is cooperation from Igbo not togetherness with Igbo. If they truly want to leave Nigeria and liberate Niger delta people from dominant tribes, they should support us to form our nation as they form thiers. I bet you when that happen, the struggle will be half won.

The Ojukwu Biafra was Igbo dream not Ijaw, Esan, Urhobo, Itsekiri, Ikwerre, ogoni, ibibio, etc dream.

In summary, my point is that why the primary interest of Niger Deltans is resource control, Igbo primary interest is seperation from Nigeria with Niger delta as thier trophy. Igbo wants a nation where they can become the lord, control and dominate others. Since in Nigeria, Hausa and yoruba are ahead of them in the power struggle, they resort to blackmail and cry foul claiming marginalization.

if Nigeria will divide peacefully by United Nations referendum, south south will not join Biafra. Peaceful division of Nigeria can only be into a minimum of five countries (Arewa republic, Niger Middle belt, United Niger Delta, Oduwa republic, and Biafra). South South will form its own nation/nations.

My Igbo neighbour may not like this submission, but it is the bitter truth

M4gunners:
The worst is that, his people yellowbad will not talk again because it is their brother. Now let him ask fg again or minister of petroleum to bring the price down.

While I am not here to defend APC, but remember that PDP refused to pay outstanding debt to marketers despite the removal of subsidy, depletion of reserves and rising internal/external debt.

Take it or leave it, PDP as a party that ruled for 16 years will still be attributed to any problem being faced by APC today.

Scholes007:
[s]When Nebo was singing it like a song during his time as minister for power, you guys (APC) called him names,some EVEN went as far as describing his nose and ear.
Now that you are doing exactly that you castigated, what do you want us to do? Feel sympathy[/s]?

Shut up your stinking mouth! Was this not the same Lagos-Ibadan Express Way PDP has commenced before the formulation of APC? I remember that Senator Ibikunle Amosun was present there with GEJ as the only AD Governor as at then.

Worst still, GEJ used this road for campaign before election: thank God the clueless one is voted out. PDP=People Deceiving Party.

gare:
If you have a brain and you are not baised, you would understand what Metuh is saying, you can't at this substitute another person half way into the election, either it is done before the election. You can't have two governorship candidates for one elections, are you now saying PDP can change its governorship candidates?

What INEC ought to do is to cancel and call for a fresh elections or give it to pdp , this are the lapses in our constitution we ought to look at, not insulting ourselves every now and then

Give it to PDP, the loosing Party? I don't want to call you 'olodo' but see whom you are
