You just come up with these random ejaculations from your "brain",what is this "want to be a millionaire quiz show?

You name an ingredient in peppersooup

omonnakoda:
Such an encounter will scar you permanently

superstar1:
What is all these arguments about?

The alliance should not only stop at SS and SE amalgamation, they are free to even annex southern Cameroon that used to be part of the old eastern region as well.

Once the objectives and aim of the alliances suits all parties, why should others be disputing it for them?

The alliance is about Oil and access to the sea for one party, why the other is in need of the numerical strength.

At the same time, no one should run back to Nigeria once more begging for freedom from his domineering neighbour.

omonnakoda:
Whether Northern Delta are Eboe is and has been debatable not everyone agrees but that is another matter

omonnakoda:
We have been there and done that and then we have moved on not without reason.Once again Edo and Delta are not in the East

bakila:
Again it is a nairaland discussion and by 2019 we would see if your effort has stood the test of time.

ozoigbondu:
add sauce

kaybiel2u:
please learn from that op and stop being naive

bakila:
Simple question for you sir,who will be the Junior partner in that relationship? Igbo?

bakila:
No they are not one. Abia, Imo and Anambra may not all be PDP. PDP will most likely be in the minority in the SE or share same spot with APGA.

omonnakoda:
That Aros are not ruled by strangers

sCun:
Who are you to complain on their behalf?

omonnakoda:
It was not a myth.The fact that Willinks said Eastern Nigeria was 98% Ibo speaks volumes. If PH was an Ibo town as he reported why then is there talk of abandoned property.That is a bit contradictory isn't it. It was the same phenomenon in the West that led to the formation of the MidWest Region whih was done fo political reasons in terms of timing. It was necessary to carve out Cross River/Akwa Ibom. Even there Willinks said Ibo were majority in Ogoja and it would appear he reinforced the idea of Aro as Ibo even though we know that the Ezes in Aro are no Ibo(discussion for another day)

sCun:
That is one man speaking about the past. Have you done a survey with Niger deltans today to find out if they want to be referred as the ''east''? How many Niger deltans today will be happy to go with Biafra if Nigeria disintegrates today instead of their own ND republic?
I keep asking, can't the 2 regions cooperate in every way possible while recognising their differences? You and your likes are filled with inferirority complex.

sCun:
Have you asked those people of their opinion on referring to all of them as the east? This is the useless assumption Ojukwu made with Biafra only for him to cry betrayal at the end. You can strenghthen relations without lumping all of them into the east.

sCun:
Keep riding in your folly then. Attitudes like yours is what makes these people suspicious of the Igbos.
I can assure you that you will only achieve the complete opposite of what you desire with this... Further division. The Ndoki and Egbemas you mentioned aren't the only groups in that region.
Just continue in your domineering fooly and see where it leads you.

Ihuomadinihu:
Oh wow! I've been looking for a thread like this. After watching so many bollywood movies,i was fascinated by how they still managed to preserve their culture inspite of Western colonization. I was prompted to search for ancient and native Igbo ornaments and jewerlly. To my amazement,most of these ornaments are now considered primitive and unholy. How did indians preserve their culture and why did we let go of ours? Igbo women only wear the anklets and jigida only during cultural performances/epic movies,as they are now considered fetish and mundane. I am sincerly hoping for a turn around when Igbo women can wear these beautiful ornaments daily just like Indian women.

omonnakoda:
Edo and Delta are now in the SS those are not Easterners neither are they "Westerners". Let everyone decide what they want to be

olapluto:
lol. Wallow in your folly mate. If it makes you happy. Very soon, the SS you are pleading to romance with will put you where you belong. Then they will also become 'anti-Igbo'. Then, rather than address the self-delusion of most of you, you will start to threaten to form a country.
According to Godwill Akpabio: 'If war was won on propaganda, Biafra would win many times- Most times they will announce on the radio that in the morning they will capture Lagos, when they havent even reached Abagana'.
The only people who do not see Igbos for who they are, are the Igbos themselves. Egolomania will continue to blurr your political future.

sCun:
Calling all of them ''east'' is making the same mistake all over again. Where is the identity the crave for?
This is foolishness I must say.
Can't their be economic and political cooperation without lumping all of them together into one 'east'?

ocelot2006:
And that's because of the boundaries both regions share. But the Igbo population is NOT a sizeable one with the igbos being the minority tribe in this region.
