Advantage APC....

They havent even done anything with their advantage of winning the presidency

subtlemee:
I can't just understand how a normal human being created by God with all his senses functional can subject himself to be used like this and whoever sent them is in his air conditioned house enjoying breakfast

Really? You cant imagine? Every Nigerian politician does this everyday

Thats the many questions of FFK which none of the 'one Nigeria' chanters will never answer

nonsobaba:
When lesser igbos are given a little authority in igbo political affairs, this is the kind of disgrace they bring to us.

So you want decieve anyone that you Igno with a stupid statement like that?


Ebonyi is the food basket of Igbo land. It has huge agricultural potential as well as solid mineral development. The problem is that it has been led by visionless men

winterfell007:
Raising the Biafra flag or moving along the street chanting Biafra means nothing to Nigerian government. U guys will keep shouting Biafra even to the next millenmium but the fact remains the unity of this country will remain unshakable. Even ur fraudulent director knows that deep within his heart. No amount of propaganda, hate speech, mass movement can frighten the sovereignty of this nation, if u like quote the UN article 23.
The federal govt. Is patiently waiting for the fraudster to order his misguided people to wage war then they'll show that fraudster what it means to challenge the might of the Republic.
To those help thinking help from other countries is coming, u are allowed to keep living a delusion of grandeur, after all, it's your right to dream. The UN is a toothless bulldog that will only talk don't expect it or any other country to a enforce a referendum on a sovereign state like Nigeria. Make ur peace with the fact that Nigeria is bond

If Britain that is responsible for making you a Nigerian can allow Scotland a referendum in 2014, then it means that the colonial creation you now call your country due to graciousness of Lord Lugard, is not sacrosant. Bottomline is, if you decide to hold people against their will, never expect peace or progress.

This picture is why all Nigerians should be proud of "one Nigeria"

Can anyone imagine why IPOB wont embrace Nigeria after seen such a 'lovely' picture?

AbuMaryam1:
I didn't see a big deal, your request got a soft landing. Leave north go back to Biafra. You people are complaining. Nobody need war, we don't need you anymore. You call us illiterates, we remains silent, you call us parasites we remains silent. OK, you said you want to go we obliged. And why crying?

Theres only one problem, there is Biafra to go back to yet. The Northern youths should not be asking Igbos to go when there is no Biafra to go back to. That is practicing 'one Nigeria' while choosing who to exclude. That is called eating your cake and having it

LasGidiOwner:
Anambra election shall hold. GOD has sealed it.

The Anambra election holding is not the issue. The issue is turn out. The number of people who vote in an election help to determine its credibility. Low turn out robs elections of their credility. As an Anambra man, I was going to vote APGA, but now, Im joining the boycott so I wont vote.

Nice. The movement is unstoppable

hatchy:
Nnamdi Kanu is just an opportunist who capitalized on the gullibility of the illiteracy of most of his kinsmen and women who don't do much more than trading to place himself where he is today.The average Igbo man is an artisan or trader and does not really know what politics is all about or how to play it.Therefore,he was able to sell that his stupid ideas of hate and violence via radio and propaganda news tabloid littered all over East.

I surely know that he is heading to self destruction.

Meanwhile read what Joe Igbokwe said about this Biafra agitation..

Read up on the concept of self determination

I will never understand how the British can come to West Africa, force several ethnic groups together, name them after a River and the same people that were forced together are saying "we are one"

Laughable

Elmojiid:
why are this pple blind to see that this guy is a con man

Same reason why Nigerians dont know that it is not the job of the white man to from from Europe to give them their country

Mortiple:
Surely, Nigeria will be restructured, this may not be in the immediate though.

Asking Ndigbo to leave Nigeria for Igboland is like asking fishes in Atlantic Ocean to vacate their abode and move into River Niger.

Bigger platforms present greater opportunities.

Look am asking a simple question, if you cant answer then say you cant answer. People lile have been saying that Nigeria will restructure since the days of Aburi 50 years ago.The North is totally against restructuring. If Nigeria never restructures never happens, what would you advice Igbos to do? Accept the current system and forget their right to self determination?

Mortiple:
Nigeria is a bigger and better platform for an average Igbo person to thrive.

As a full blooded Igbo man, I am in full support of RESTRUCTURING OF NIGERIA but NEVER in support of seccession.

I am just about to launch my pet project "NDIGBO-AGAINST-BIAFRA (NAB)".

*Share, if you are in support.
*Like, if you are against.

And if Nigeria is never restructured, what will you do? When Scotland went to a referendum in 2014, do you think they didnt know that Britain "bigger and better platform to thrive"?

Its all about self determination

enemyofprogress:
Only the poor, jobless and hungry people are in support of biafra. Their big men don't want it,ask ekweremadu and okorocha

You mean the same big men who messed Nigeria up? Biafra is a movement of the people.

Henryyy:
Oh no Ipobs aint gonna like this.Their major hope for Biafra lay in the ND oil. What now

Not really, IPOB isnt against any group that seeks self determination. What IPOB is against is fake groups with no iota of seriousness that werw created just to undermine IPOB.

If this group is serious, it will be interesting to see how they unite more than tribes in the Niger Delta to come together and agree on a new nation.

Freedom fighting is not easy and it is no joke.

Ket it not be that after today, we wont hear about them again.

tesppidd:
I just came to read comments and prove that someone must mention ffk on this thread.

Of course, it only remains for FFK to tell them that Ivanka Trump was his ex girlfriend

Putara gini? Answer the question

peacengine:
I'm not ready for another war, but if need be no worries

Who is ever ready for a war? Important thing is that when they come for you, you fight and defend your self.

It happend to Ojukwu. He was not ready for war, but when Nigeria came to east, he gave them a hell of a fight for 3 years.

oladeebo:
This is real conflict loading if not the 2nd civil war! Nigerian mustn't taken it for joke!
Northern youths refused to calm down, Igbo is yet to pack luggage! thing is getting out of hand gradually!
So, Baba Obasanjo, Abusalam Abubakri and other National leaders must put on their agba before it's toolate!
I don't love how Ohaneze is handing this matter, they didn't help calm down the situation!
why waiting for reconciliation before intervene, must the life and property lost first?
The Nairalander must start promote peace now!
it will be devastated if started, we must start right now!
I want the leaders of the east to speak out and condemn kanu and ipob as the Norther leaders is doing to their youths!
Peace before anything including biafra!
oladeebo in minna!

We are Igbos, we do not bow or beg the Northern Gambaris. Its you guys in the west that are known for that

Nna, what they said about high grade Chinese weed circulating in Nigeria must be true

greenermodels:
words of wisdom although i don't trust Reno omokri on a personal level.
How to achieve Biafra in ten years or less
1.Form a political party with self-determination and self-rule for Igbo people as a platform. United Progressive Party(UPP) may already be positioning itself to be that kind of a party.

2.Elect majority of the region’s local and state government officials from that party. This will solve the problem of who is supporting Biafra and who is not amongst the ethnic minorities around the Igbo area.

3.Have two-third of elected officials sent to Abuja elected from that political party. You will be sending a clear message across Nigeria and the world, and the agenda of these officials in Abuja will not be ambiguous.

4.Once two-third of all elected Igbo officials are from this political party with a platform that says self-governance and self-determination, a pseudo- referendum would have taken place.

5.The party can demand a regional parliament in Enugu to govern themselves, similar to what happened in Scotland and Quebec. At this point, the government in Abuja will concede to demands to devolve power from the center as they do everything to delay the inevitable.

6.After a few years of regional governance, if so desired, then demand a formal referendum from Nigeria. A referendum to leave Nigeria can take place in 6-8 years time.

7.If the referendum passes, Biafra can be a state of its own.

Can you tell us how many of these steps Lugard and the British went through before they created Nigeria and made you a "Nigerian"?

LionDeLeo:
Pls, what is the msg here?

“From today, June 6, 2017, when this proclamation is signed, the North, a critical player in the Nigerian project, hereby declares that it will no longer be disposed to coexisting with the Igbos and shall take definite steps to end the partnership by pulling out of the current federal arrangement.“This conclusion is necessitated by the realization that it since ceased to be comfortable or safe to continue sharing the same country with the ungrateful, uncultured Igbos who have exhibited reckless disrespect for the other federating units and stained the integrity of the entire nation with their insatiable criminal obsessions.

The message here doesnt mean anything. That Northerners dont want Igbos in the North does not mean they support Biafra or the disintegration of Nigeria. They should make a statement fully supporting the Igbos to secede. Asking people to go and saying that they dont want to keep sharing the same country with a people sounds vague and can mean anything.

bappahman:
A potential government should be on ground educating its ppl,, some if not most of Igbos in northern states are not so sure of what is the plan for them, are they to sacrifice their life savings for biafra nd return as destitutes, IPOB needs to be up md doing informing them nd not insulting us

A potential government cannot be on ground while we arw still in ' one Nigeria'

It is after all parties have agreed on Biafra that a potential government can be formed

As an Igbo man, what I saw in this video are two arrogant Northern youths who are dishing out orders like the disgrace of an officer called Gowon that 'we must all be together'

So these two morrons are deciding for Igbos what their country should be? Condenming IPOB when IPOB has nothing to do with them

How can an Hausa/Fulani man be telling an Igbo man like me that we are one? What historical connection do we have? We arw brothers because Lord Lugard forced us all together? Just look at Northerners arrogantly deciding who is a Nigeria and who is not

bappahman:
We expect the potential government of biafra to come out with not just a statement regarding its position on the marching order given to its "citizens" by arewa youths which they (IPOB) haven't done, we expect a blue print of how they will evacuate nd house returning citizens, plans on how to compensate them for potential losses nd economic plans for the millions that will need jobs nd source of income. To be a good government insults on radio is not enough but realistic actions should follow

Have you asked the people giving the 'marching orders' if they agree to creation of Biafra and the disintegration of Nigeria?

How can someone be giving 'marching orders' but there is no where to march to?

Nice one!

It is interesting that Arewa youths are asking Igbos to go back home and Yorubas are busy observing Igbo reaction?

Yet it is you Yorubas and Northerners that will be screaming 'one Nigeria' whenever you hear the word Biafra.

I think it is time for Igbo/ Hausa/ Yoruba to sit down and discuss the de-amalganation or disintegration of this unholy union called Nigeria.

It is now apparent that 'one Nigeria' is a scam and we Igbos have been right all along to seek a separate state.

Bj5all:
We all know this hatred that exists between an average Igbo man and Hausa man which has been made obvious for everyone to see.

For the sake of national peace, what do you think will bring lasting peace between the two tribes? What do you think will make a Hausa man sees an igbo man as his brother?

Do you think such peaceful coexistence is ever possible?

Let's talk for national peace and for the sake of our unborn children

For lasting peace, divide the country

Igbos! Say no to the scam called "one Nigeria"

swuftz:
and what have you achieved with your one day sit at home. you are now given ultimatum to leave the north.. and now you are crying about how you've develop the north.

the Yoruba are smarter and more intelligent than that. we value our time and peace.. beside the organiser did not call for a senseless sit at home nor for the break up of Nigeria.

The sit at home showed the world that we are serious and united about Biafra.

The Northern ultimatum has shown everybody that there is nothing like 'one Nigeria'

Yorubas always claim be smart but they can never be smarter than Lugard who gave them 'one Nigeria'. Thats to show you how far Igbos have gone.

Ugomba:
I laughed out loud when I saw the threat of Northern youths to Igbos, ordering them to leave the north.
The North don't want restructuring, what do they now want?
Do these northerners know the implications of these threat?
90% of Internal Generated Revenue in the North are gotten from Taxation of Igbo markets, Hotels, Factories etc.
NDI IGBO, Listen, Lagos is the most populated state in Nigeria with 25+million occupants and the same lagos ironically has the smallest landmass in Nigeria, If Lagos can contain 25million people, then Enugu and Anambra alone can contain All Igbos.
Igbo land is bigger than Rwanda, Israel, Gambia, Singapore etc and these are Countries of their own.
If Egypt can build an artifical canal as seaport, Igbos can dredge the Obeaku water in Ukwa, Abia state to the Atlantic.
It is 12nauticals to the atlantic ocean .
There is Oil and gas in Igbo land, from Egbema, Ukwa, Ndoki, Oguta, Ogbaru etc
what about Solid minerals like Limestones, Coal, Tin, Columbite, Timber etc that are in commercial size in Igbo land.
We have huge markets, and most importantly a very great Human Resources.
.
I call upon all Igbo investors in the North to start the process of relocating their businesses to the east,
why will an Imo man build a hotel in jigawa when he can build it in Oguta or Okigwe?
Why will an Abia man build a mall in Kano when he can build it in Umuahia
Why will umeofia want to build a tomato product industry in sokoto when he can build in Onitsha, Nnewi or Asaba.
.
- Lets build international airports in Igbo areas just like Sam mbakwe build the imo airport by shrewd contribution.
Lets copy the Israeli method who returned home and build their homeland.
.
- Some Towns in Igbo land like Arochukwu, Orlu, Okigwe, Nnewi, Afikpo, Nsukka, etc should be build and transformed into a city.
.
- Do you know that Coal in Enugu can power up the whole Igbo land or alternatively the Gas in Oguta and Egbema can power up a Gas power plant in Igbo land.
Don't forget the already existing Thermal power plant in Alaoji Abia that is built by Barth Nnaji.
.
- What about Aba? We can open up Industrial estates in Nnewi,Aba, Asaba, Okigwe etc and start producing some products we will use in Igbo areas inorder to grow the GDP and IGR.
.
- What about Agriculture? Farming should be given and commercialised to Big farm investors.
By the way, when you Eat Oha soup or Nsala soup, how many of the ingredient come from the North? NONE.
Is it their beef? Ebonyi can build a massive cow farm, Imo can build a massive Poultry farm etc.
We can get and produce our own meat.
.
- Lets build more markets and High rise Residential buildings for easy and organised accomodation.
.
- Where are our industralists and investors, it is time to saturate the entire Igbo land with trillions worth of your investments.
.
- What about our own media, we need investment in internationalised media in Igbo land so that we can tell our story and advertise our land to the world.
..
- What about ICT Park in Igbo land, we have the brains to grow many service based and logistic technopreneurship in Igbo land.

.
The empty threat by the northern youths should be a wakeup call.
Even if you want to base outside Igboland, then travel abroad.
Respect comes when your house is in order.
IGBOS lets think home.
UGOMBA- The Anioma First Son

I agree with everyhing you are saying. However, unless Igbo land get its independence from the the destructive country called Nigeria, it is all for nothing. Nothing in Nigeria ever progresses, the sooner Igbos get out of Nigeria, the better.
