So you are saying the best way to solve the above problems is to go our separate ways?

If not, why not?
For how long are we going to be shouting restructuring yet it's falling on deaf ears because north won't have it.
For how long are we going to be in this cesspit called Nigeria?
The worst is that we are not even static rather we are retrogressing by the day.
If you know the solution please tell us.

A wasted sperm has written a waste from the waste side and has succeeded in wasting my time reading a trash.

cultist:
Op i was there live, i witness everything that happen their yesterday.. Even have fun with our reggae brother... So you are a disgrace to your brothers 9zoorians.

Please read carefully before you curse nwachineke. All hail Biafra.

Op please be corrected. The president of prostitutes in Nigeria is Fumilayo Adeniyi. Stop posting lies.

Those of you that are shouting restructuring, please how market? The north created the constitution and stamped it with democracy which is a game of numbers. Consequently, the north has succeeded in given themselves the veto power to what ever they want. I tell you again, you'll shout restructuring till thy kingdom come.

marvin902:
will disagree with you on computer science is pure mathematics

I'm telling you about real mathematics you are talking about logic. You're neither a computer scientists nor a computer student. You simply don't have an authority on this.

marvin902:
will disagree with you on computer science is pure mathematics

Mathematics as a course can be more advanced in calculations than computer science but computer science itself is all about mathematics.

Ncsamuel:
Op am ibo mysef, but i have education that you dont have. There is no room for referendum in our constitution! So there wont be one! They only thing that might be done is to create autonomous regions in the country, which might also not be feasible.

When the time comes we shall know whether Bakassi was seceded through 'the other room'.

Raymondboyvic:
Please i need your advice on which has more maths as a degree

Your question is like asking between Mathematics and chemical engineering which one has more calculations. Computer science is pure mathematics. Some people that are going into computer science think is all about how to use application softwares such as Microsoft office etc. It's far beyond that.

When trouble dey sleep iyanga go wake am waiting he dey fine? ... Okoroawusa has made one almighty mistake. Waiting for the reply.

Chai! our oyel money.

You left all the widows in Imo and came to Anambra. You're really a super woman. Kwontinue.

hilroy:
The collapse is as a result of substandard products sold by their brothers

You mean Dangote cement? But Dangote is from the north and mind you even in Lagos is the same story. I think we should blame Biafra or Nnamdi Kanu.

NtoAkwaIbom:
First of all.. I am a firm believer in the entrepreneurial power of the ibos, I believe that if they could let go of their pride and their "Umu chineke" feeling, that make them clasify others as lesser humans.

they would be the best people to deal and live peacefully with..

however, they arenot..
They feel that the East is Sacrosanct and no other person from other region can live there.
They buy land everywhere in Nigeria and own 70% of lands, but people from other regions are not sold land to in their region, if you score through the East you foreigners are only allowed to rent, not own..


Igbos are contesting widely in Lagos, some Governors imbibe them into their Cabinet(Even El-Rufai they so hate and despise). but one hausaman received all the curse for himself, his ancestors and his posterity... for trying to run for an office in the East..


how on earth do you expect to always get from someone and never give back, and expect the person to love and cherish you, and risk staying in the same room with u for the rest of his life ?

HOW ?

Please there is a land at Umueri, a plot is just 1.5 million. If you need one let me know and stop peddling lies that Igbos don't allow order regions to buy land in their area. Other regions don't buy land from the east or even develop the ones given to them for free because they don't believe in one Nigeria. They only give lip service to one Nigeria when it suits them.

Any fool out there knows that Ojukwus approach to Biafra cannot be Kanu's approach to Biafra. Ojukwu and Kanu are from different eras.

Ojukwu already held power as Governor of the Eastern Region and could declare Biafra effectively. Kanu on the other hand, does not hold that sort of power.

Another real difference between Ojukwus time and Kanu's time is that Ojukwu was under military rule while Kanu is under democracy. Thats why Ojukwu had to fight a war while Kanu does not need to fight.

When it comes to the issue sovereighty of people, the elite do not matter. What matters is what the majority of the people want, wether they be street touts or priviledged. Kanu wants a referendum for an area that compromises of the old Eastern Region and Delta state. I have never seen these people protesting their love of Nigeria on the streets. If any of the ethnic groups feel more comfortable with Nigeria, they should vote to remain in Nigeria while those who wish to go can go.

This was done in 1961 when British Cameroon voted in a referendum. South British Cameroon voted to join Republic of Cameroon while the North voted to join Nigeria. There was no issue of consulting or if the elite were involved, it was a matter of democracy, what the majority in a given area want.


In terms of Kanu asking the people of Anambra to bocott elections, he is entitled to do that. Anybody can ask the people of Anambra to boycott elections. It is left for the people of Anambra to heed the call or reject it. This again is democracy, allowing the people to choose. Everything about Kanu and IPOB agitation is democratic because no one us being forced to do anything.

Nigeria however is not democratic. It is Nigeria that will be telling everyone that nobody has a choice to choose if they want to be Nigerian or not.

It is tbis right for ine ti choose their own destiny is why Kanu will always be ahead if Nigeria

You couldn't have said it any better. This is simple, since we are in democracy let us allow the majority to carry the vote. This mischievous elements are making it to look as if Kanu is forcing Biafra on anyone. All Kanu is saying is, allow people to chose their destiny through the ballot. I wonder why this is so hard for some people to understand.

tobyemmanuel:
So what happened in the case of the couple in acts that died for holding a portion back? By the way, Tithe started during the time of Abraham and that's before the law.

The couple that died for withholding a portion didn't die because it was mandatory for them to give rather it was because they lied even when they were not compelled to give. It was clearly a case of freewill donation marred by lies.
During Abraham's time it was also a freewill given, but now it has become a law.
So now, if you think that law has been rendered useless and you still withhold tithe that makes you a hypocrite.

tobyemmanuel:
Tithe is an act of giving. Regardless of the 10 percent thing. It is the responsibility of the believers to give not only to the church but also to the needy. You can pay more than 10 percent. It depends on you. Read acts of apostles, see how believers then gave their things and even sold their possessions.

You lied. There is a clear difference between tithing and ordinary given. The former is law while the later is a free will. I don't know who you want to protect by telling lies.

barcaboi:
1. are you God to know someone is destined for hell?
2. I'm not saying u re wrong and I ain't saying u are right either.....but laws like an eye for an eye became obsolete with Christ..... We are Christians...Christ followers....and that is the new covenant

Have you taken your time to read the very portion of the bible that was written " An eye for an eye" if you do, then you'll know that that very law is what everybody is practicing today. The price for murder today is capital punishment.

BuzChi:
I am not here to give you answers, rather i am to
spur you to find out for yourself that is why i
answered the way i did. I would still give you a
lead not a direct answer. If you study the words of
Jesus in John 13:34, you will understand what i
tried saying in the earlier mail i wrote. The jewish
laws were holy and good, but God knew they could
not save anyone; and He desires a relationship not
hypocrites. Study 1 John 2: 1 and any other you're
led to read. The only thing you owe man and God
is to abide in love, which is the only Law and
commandment. Remember we are the gentiles that
Paul in a way was anointed to preach to because
God knew Paul could go against tradition. Paul
already explained if you're anywhere, in order not
to be disobedience and for those of weaker faith,
engage in the activity, as long as it's not
abominable: so him doing whatever he did was
because of the society and for peace, not because
he's in bondage to it. Recall that Jesus still went
to the temple even though he knew the temple
leaders were hypocrites. In the scripture you quoted
in Acts 21:18-24, you had your answer in verse 25!!
God's law is love, not in the way of seeing a
written law and trying to do with our hearts
smeared with hypocrisy because we know when we
fail in one we fail in all! It's our Father's pleasure
that we come to him in love, confidence and
humility.
You know, Eto i feel you know the answers to your
questions-but it feels maybe awkward to your
mind. If you need to do more interesting reading, i
could help you with a book. Inbox me

I don't know why you still go round the circle instead of taking the bull by the horn. " Love your neighbor as yourself" you're talking about is one of the laws of God (Leviticus 19 vs 18) though the greatest of them all according to Christ.

My question is very simple, since the law has been rendered useless according to you, does it mean we should start breaking the laws?

According to Christ who is the author and finisher of my faith, the criteria for you to enter the kingdom of God is
1) Keep the commandments of God (Matthew 19 vs 16 - 19)
2) Follow Him (Christ) as your personal lord and savour. (Matthew 19 vs 21).

If you can't answer my question clearly them stop quoting me.

BuzChi:
If you recall that the greatest of the commandment is love. So the old convenant is actually a shadow- Jesus Christ is the substance of it. That is why as there was the Passover lamb, which was annually done, Jesus Christ is the substance of the real Passover for all times. Grace and truth was selectively given in the Old testament but now it is for all mankind. If you truly recieve Christ Jesus into your heart, you are a believer and the laws has no hold on you. The believers live is one of love , not compulsion, that is why the prophecy was that the laws would be in our hearts. When you truly love someone, even when you misbehave, you feel hurt that this person loves you so much for you to disappoint him-its the devil trick to keep us feeling self-condemned. Always go to your Heavenly Father to receive forgiveness; and also fellowship/discuss/chat with Him! Most importantly, if you understand God's love for you, and the free gifts we have in Christ Jesus, you would not be willing to keep on doing/practising sins, especially repetitious one. We are all in the flesh, so we are growing in revelation/understanding in some areas to be victorious-but you are already saved and you are Christ's.
*Study Romans chapters 2 to chapt 6, to better understand how to answer your question.

All these things you stated above did not answer my question.
My question is simply put does new covenant means breaking Gods law?
You said that the law will be written in our hearts. Which law are you talking about, the one that has been rendered useless?
What does Christ mean is Matthew 5 17-19?
Why did Paul observe the law in Acts 21:18 -24
And why did Paul deny breaking the law in Acts 24:10-14.
Why I'm asking you about Paul is because the Roman you quoted was written by Paul.

Please answer in clear terms and stop answering what you can not explain like " the old convenant is actually a shadow- Jesus Christ is the substance of it"

Stop comparing us with South Sudan please. I didn't see any tangible reason you gave for us to remain in this contraption except the love for your girlfriend. Abeg na love we shop?

jiggaz:
Did u read the post at all? Go and read the book of Romans & Galatians to know what it means to be in Christ... It is either Christ or nothing... He is the ultimate.

Stop ranting if you can't answer my question. So, Christ to you means lawlessness. Your kind need somebody that will give then green light to sin. You're quoting Romans and Galatians , I bet you in the last days even Paul will deny you because Paul was an observant of law till the end. You can read Acts 21:18-39, Acts 24:10-16 to confirm.

Op, since the old covenant is all about the laws of God are you implying we should start breaking those laws because according to you Christ has rendered the old covenant useless?
Does grace means we can now start breaking the laws of God?
Please explain in plain terms.

koladebrainiac:
Lol funny how someone who is acting like a slave calling others a slave.

Igbos are minority n they are below the food chain in the pyramid of power in this country

You are a slave
You are knock around guys in politics of nigeria.
The only dignity you have here is the agitation you will never have.

Check out the history of Nigeria you guys are the pawn in the game of things

You were rookies during the first republic
You were used to orchestrated the first coup which you cant even execute successfully

You were sacrificial lambs during the civil war

Fast forward.
You carried out Okah coup . it was unsuccessful


During Abacha regime
One Kanu -a lawyer was used by north to do their dirty work during Abacha mukezo *

Saraki used u guys like pawn in the senate . you were given crumbs in the power that be -thats ekweremadu

If Buhari had been a corrupt politician like others he would have bought Nnamdi Kanu so easily. Think about it. Nnamdi kanu has his price.
Look at all ur present leaders n swear thst no one will sell you for just contract n money.


In your inner mindset you carry the idea if slave mentality.

Yoruba can easily look at Nigeria politics n get the best out of it.

Even South south are more powerful than u guys

You are below the foodchains guys

Suck it in

Yet Igbos are far better than your dirty afonja tribe. Instead of attacking your Fulani masters you have chosen to transfer your useless aggression on igbos. You have failed woefully.

Op you intentionally want to course some people sleepless night. Why not post this kind of heartbreaking news in the morning at least?

I hope those that are shouting restructuring as if it's come and get am can see this. The true owners of Nigeria have spoken and there is nothing anybody can do about it. You can shout from now till thy kingdom come, it can never happen. As for me and my family its Biafra or no election.

One Idiot has spoken.

I'm yet to see the video of Osibanjo meeting Buhari. Until then I'll keep watching.

I'm yet to see the video of Osinbajo meeting Buhari.
