BeautifulMind2:

Smear campaign, when you see how they push propaganda against Southeast especially here on Nairaland when you visit the region you will be asking yourself if it's another Southeast you don't know, Southeast remain the safest region

They are trying to demarket the south east and make investors scared of leaving their horrible Lagos. They also hope that gullible igbos buy into their propaganda so they don’t withdraw their investment back to the south east.

XerXers:

You can see how special Igbos are

Special indeed my brother. We are so special that they completely ignore all the atrocities going on in their region and only focus on us

Rutherford2019:
The arrest made by Nigerian army last week has proved Obi right
The insecurity in SE is act of criminality and not by IPOB
The 2 persons arrested are a Yoruba Muslim and a Ghanaian.
Thorough investigation should be carried out

These are their pictures

Chikarata2020:
Even with the regular sit at home that is orchestrated by a Junkie hiding in Finland, south east is still relatively peaceful. The situation is that any small violence in SE is always blown out of proportion

Exactly they blow it out of proportion to demarket Igboland and make it look like the worst place ever on social media.

JASONjnr:
Will anyone believe this? When lots of slaughtering is witnessed on social media with Igbos militia killing people disobeying their sit at home order.

The facts are facts…

Just because one group of people are focused on a lot doesn’t mean everywhere else is safe.

For example Lagos Ibadan expressway has many kidnappings going on weekly yet we barely hear of it.

jjcena:


The reason is because killings in a certain area is strange, so it makes news immediately it happens but others don't make news when it happens because it has become a norm there.

Argue with your left nyash

All lives should matter in Nigeria. The main problem is that people are using unfortunate deaths in the south east as a smear campaign and propaganda weapon against Igbos.

AuschwitzPrefec:


How's the current civil Disobedient sit your ass at home.

Oh I so much enjoy your tears. Facts over feelings. Bring your own fact or shut up.

SangoOlukosoOba:
🤣🤣🤣🤣

Early morning joke!

I know behind that laugh is so much pain because it goes against your core narrative 🤣🤣🤣🤣

ODUBEZE:
South Easterners are very calm, cool, nice, accommodating and very peaceful until Buhari came on board

History will be very unkind to that man. His evil deeds are recorded online.

If one person dies the south east, 15 pages of propaganda

7 people die in the south west, 4 pages (if it even makes it to front page)

40 people die in the north.. silence

Despite all the online noises and propaganda, series of recently released data proves that south east remains the safest part of Nigeria

Lagos is one of the fastest sinking cities in the world due to global warming.

Students Stranded As Flood Takes Over Lagos Communities

Some students were stranded Monday afternoon after a flood took over roads and other areas in the Oko Oba community, Orile Agege Local Council Development Area.

The students seen in their different school uniforms, according to a resident, James Joel, had not been able to return to their various homes as the flood levelled up the bridge in the area.

"They have been stranded for about two hours. They're students of Lagos Baptist Senior Secondary School, Eko Junior Secondary School, and Lagos Baptist Senior College," Joel said.

The Oko Oba community has always experienced floods during heavy downpours.

XerXers:

Abuja has overtaken Lagos in domestic flights since 2019 with Owerri growing fast. This happened unnoticed. It's a sign of shifting middle class population SE

One day the same “go back to your village” people will be posting promotional videos for igbos to come invest. Don’t worry. Things will change soon.

ODUBEZE:

So they are slowing it down but fast tracking that if Lagos right and what are your leaders doing about it

Let me take a guess, discussing Igbos ;DD Igbos is the new deal town

I can only explain things to you but I cannot understand it for you. You are on your own.

christejames:



You are just ignorant...





I don't converse with dimwits 😏

Don’t waste your precious energy on a troll.

ODUBEZE:

submit for mouth

How long did it take Lekki seaport again

Continue with the propaganda

I hope you know that it’s your federal government that has been slowing down Onitsha port operations through NIWA. Stop talking nonsense.

BeautifulMind2:

Yes I followed the meeting with the major stakeholders, from the meeting they said they are in final stage of making Onitsha Port the port of final destination through Nigeria custom, they also planning to dredge Onitsha Port through PPP agreement, from what NIMA boss said that the agreement between the FG and concessioner that if the FG can't dredge that the it can be dredge by the concessioner, so they are involving all the major stakeholders in Southeast, are the are all interested especially especially manufacturing association of Nigeria Southeast and clearing agents, Anambra state government also hinted that they finalizing to build rail line from Onitsha Port to major cities in the state including Anambra airport.

This is wonderful news. I hope things get moving faster. Thanks for the update

gidgiddy:


Let me put it this way so you know what is real and what is fiction

A certain character in Finland declared a one week sit at home. During that one week, people were flogged, chased about, some goods destroyed. But no life was lost. The Lagos/Ibadan expressway media and their North cohorts turned into the worse thing ever. FFK and Reno Omokiri called it terrorism

That same week, armed bandits killed over 100 people in two states, Benue and Plateau States. The Lagos/Ibadan expressway media, their Northern cohorts, Reno Omokiri and FFK all stayed silent

Their problem is who sat at home in the South East

Nothing else to add. You said it all

Op, were you able to attend the zoom meeting for Onitsha river port? I was very busy yesterday.

If so, what are the updates? Thanks

Nice one. Let’s continue pushing and ignore the propagandas.

Big Boost for Aba, Nnewi and Onitsha
