I was trying to tell you I do a does not have any link with Biafra

cremedelacreme:
Crap!

Princecalm:
you were making sense before you reached the border, you really got it wrong there

cremedelacreme:
So I ask, where and what on earth is Biafra? And if successful nations can usually be described as a people of a particular culture who speak a particular language, like Spanish people of Spain speak Spanish, German people of Germany speak German, English people of England speak English, then what do the Biafran people speak? The Biafran language?
Guy your logic is flawed. Do Nigerian people of Nigeria speak Nigerian?

Ihuomadinihu:
Lol,at the people that believe that Igbo tradition does not exist. What is Igbo tradition? I believe igbo tradition is embedded in diversity. The differences in our way of life is what keeps igbo culture going, just because my people don't recognize the red cap does not mean the red cap or Okpu agu are not authentically igbo. We should celebrate our diversity not debate what we feel is traditional or not.
In terms of attire,i want to believe that West Africans/Igbos displaced the knowlegde of making clothes because apart from Akwaete,Akwa ocha,Ukara cloth and a few local textiles,the other wrappers we use today are manufactured in india.
In movies,i agree that most of our producers water down the igbo tradition because they are always produced/written from the northern igbo viewpoint. There are still diverse igbo tradtions that are yet to be covered esp the regions that do not have Igwe/Nze/Ozo/Eze/Lolo.
Diversity is a beautiful thing,just rep whatever part of Igboland you come from. Cheers!

Nwanne very apt and spot-on observation. And the situation is getting worse BY THE DAY!
Just seven years ago, our people were less selfish than they are today.
I fear the future of our land because the "Nigerians" are relentless in their spread of "carry and go" evil.
You see them everywhere, and they make ZERO personal sacrifice. They would rather kill their brother just to protect a piece of land they own in Abuja. Very sad.

investnow2013:
What can it take to turn Aba or Onitsha into a World Class Cites!. I don't think a summit will do that but action!.

luvmijeje:
I'm beginning to believe those who said this is a setup.

How come they've turn this issue to tribal politics? This issue is criminal and it should treated as such.

This is the definition of over-reaction....... This is excess.

ANBAKO:
Price is high at Enugu airport.....simple

Simple law of economics.....demand and supply. The higher the demand...lower the price.

Ethiopian is not substandard until you have a national carrier either nigerian Airways or Biafrair. .....

The fact remains that most Ibo businessmen travelling are based in Lagos hence they fly from lagos. This make demand high in Lagos hence lower price.

Most business men based in the east come to buy from their big importers in lagos to sell in the east.

I understand your concern and it still boil to govt policy ....policy to systematically develop every part of the country. Promoting this airport will help the people in that axis...save time, provide job and cost....

Also let us develop sense of patriotism. If 25% of Ibo people flying thru lagos or Abuja do so through Enugu...it will make impart.

That is why a Chinese businessman in Nigeria will only use or buy China made things even as small as socks. So also the Indian businessman in Nigeria. ...they will only use TATA trucks and use only Airtel number. Because they are patriotic

Do good for good to come your way

Ezeagu, I'm not so sure you're informed about this port https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_of_New_Orleans

I repeat, most of what we call 'seaports' were actually built on bodies of water - rivers, lagoons, lakes etc with access to the sea.

Deltagiant:
I mean the port is SITUATED at that distance from the Gulf of Mexico.

NAIJASOM:
Ezeagu my brother, I understand your worries but please when you have time study the city of Chongqing, in China. I will give you some facts.

1) It is the biggest city in China in polulation and land mass.
2) It is the fastest growing city in China
3) It currently the has the fastest growing regional economy
4) It is the HuB of china's industry at this moment including Machinary and Auto manufacturing.
5) Most importantly, It is an Inland City by the Yangtze and Yellow river.

The last point is the most important. It is by the river and yet its able to accomplish all these.

Deltagiant:
Good you admitted the fact that it is possible to an 'extent'. I think you're magnifying the issue than it is neccessary. The Port of new Orleans is the fourth largest port in the world and with the longest wharf. It is built 277 km on the Missisipi River from the Gulf of Mexico. Most of what we call 'seaports' the world over were built on flowing rivers and not directly on the sea, that you know.

finniblinks:
azumini is 5 nautical miles to atlantic ocean

NAIJASOM:
I guess your comment s is solely based on who you consider to be Igbo or not. In that case the Ikwere and Opobo people may not be considered Igbos to you. If thats what you mean, I totally understand. Blame Nigerian politics for that.

BUT opobo town, founded by an Igbo Man from present day Imo state is the lowest costal city in Nigeria. They have (to my knowledge) never denied their Igboness.

Deltagiant:
The discussion boils down to one thing: can an independent Igbo nation with or without the present SS be able to operate an international seaport?

Armaggedon:
i think onne port is in ikwereland

zuchyblink:
the most important thing is having access to the sea which we have through river niger,azumini,ikwo river and oguta lake

NAIJASOM:
No my brother Igbo land is not landlocked rather South-east as defined by the nigerian political chess players is partially landlocked.

Deltagiant:
Well, as per Nigeria's politics, yes...But in actual fact, Igboland in general is NOT landlocked.

Compliance:
If I by chance meet this op, I promise to strangle as Islamic jihadist slaughters those who deface Islam or Muhammed. You just insulted my faith. You're lucky because we're online but watch it Mr man.
