Nigeria is your home, no doubt. No one is dragging it with you. But if I say I am tired of being with you and so I want to leave in peace, how does that mean an attack.
Except if you guys have something else in mind and you are so timid to voice it out.
PoliticsRe: Nnamdi Kanu Had Second Home, And Stand To Destroy Nigeria! by igbeke: 7:50pm On Jul 11, 2017
Are you guys not tired of all these foolishness? Nnamdi Kanu this, Nnamdi KANU that.
Tell me what hope do you, your entire family and race have in the so-called Nigeria? What plan does the country have for you, not to talk of your children?
Tell me any thing you think you are benefiting from this country.
You provide electricity for yourself, medical care, water etc. Even our education system is a waste of time cos its certificate is not recognised in most sane climes. Yet you pay taxes and levies that will end up in some people's pocket.
You see, true development is deliberately planned for. It doesn't just happen. In real countries, their citizens are proud of them because they see things working.
Igbo wants to leave. So how does that amounts to destruction of a country? If you choose to remain, thats your cup of tea. I really wish Edo where I hailed from will have their own Nnamdi KANU to lead them out of this frustration you call a country, to a more befitting "Cannan Land". Let us leave Igbo's and KANU alone.

PoliticsNigeria, A Nation Without Leaders - Arch Okogie by igbeke(op): 9:37am On Jul 11, 2017
What do we make of a country where an individual owns a fleet of private jet…? — Okogie


EMERITUS Catholic Archbishop of Lagos, Anthony Cardinal Okogie, has described Nigeria as a nation without leaders, arguing that all available indices, including high level insecurity, abysmally low quality of life of the average Nigerian, in sharp contrast with the opulent lifestyle of politicians, offer little or no hope to even the most incurable optimist in the land.

Okogie, in an open letter, yesterday entitled “A Nation Without Leaders,”, averred that when a nation is in turmoil, those who have faith in God must pray. Given clear indices that Nigeria is in turmoil, we pray: Gracious God, grant that our leaders become wise, and the wise become our leaders. “But it would be irresponsible fideism to simply pray and fold our arms. Those who pray must think, and, having sought and obtained answers to right questions, they must act intelligently.” Okogie, who had in recent times written several letters to President Muhammadu Buhari to address the plight of the Nigerian masses, arguing that Nigerians hunger, not only for food, but also for good leadership, peace, security and justice, urged the APC government to do something fast, and “if you are already doing something, to redouble your effort. May it not be written on the pages of history that Nigerians died of starvation under your watch.”

The 81-year old cardinal, in his latest letter made available to Vanguard, yesterday, maintained that as the nation navigates from one turbulent season to another, “it has become inescapable to inquire: what is the quality of leaders—of the men and women at the helm of affairs—in our beloved Nigeria? “Can it be said that those at the helm of affairs—at federal, state, and local levels of government—are sufficiently competent to navigate the ship of state? Do our leaders fit the bill?” Painting a gleam picture, he said the high level of “insecurity in our land; the abysmally low quality of life of the average Nigerian, in scandalously sharp contrast with the opulence in which past and political office holders live; the self-serving and malevolent demagoguery that accompanies unitarist, secessionist, and xenophobic agitations in our country; the propagation of the stubborn myth that one’s ethnic community is marginalised by all other ethnic communities, when in fact every ethnic community is marginalised by the incompetence of our leaders; the acceptance of this myth by young, discontented but gullible Nigerians: these and many other indices offer little or no hope to even the most incurable optimist in the land. “Instead of devoting their mental and physical capacities to governance, our leaders are seeking their own interests. Nigerians bear the excruciating burden of being ruled by politicians who simply care less about Nigerians. “The burden is increased when they have to listen to religious leaders who whip up emotions and deceive by using the name of God, claiming visions and miracles. We do not care about our legacy, we care only about the power we wield, the wealth—often ill-gotten—we display, and above all, the pleasure and affluence we seek. “What do we make of a country where an individual owns a fleet of private jets while an overwhelming percentage of its citizens cannot afford a bus ride to the market? What do we make of a country where the wealth of the land, wealth that belongs to the people and not to government, is used to provide security for government officials, while there is no security for the average man or woman in the street?

“We have the police and the military; we have assorted security agencies with exotic names. Yet, Nigerians are robbed and murdered in their homes, abducted on the streets, at the mercy of gangsters, ritualists and cultists in their neighbourhood, while the police is helpless to the point of non-existence. The only sign that there is policing is when policemen and women extort money from Nigerians, often at gun point. “Our security agencies need to get the sequence of their steps right. Thorough investigation must precede an arrest, diligent prosecution with evidence must come before conviction in a lawfully constituted court. That is what obtains in other climes. But in our own Nigeria, media trial is fashionable.” The Cardinal concluded his letter by saying: “Precisely for these reasons, this country is in very urgent need of quality leadership. Our situation cannot be addressed by an executive and a legislature locked in a recurrence of unprincipled and sterile conflicts. In more concrete terms, neither an ailing and absent President nor an acting President can lead Nigeria out of the present situation. “Nigerian leaders must wake up lest the ship of state sink. They must stop fiddling while the country is burning. So we pray: Grant, O Lord, that our leaders become wise, and that the wise become our leaders. Amen.”

The state may have let this man down. He came from overseas to invest 100 million in agriculture in Edo state. Fulani herdsmen came to his farm at night, uprooted his cassava for their cows, then went ahead and uprooted pineapples too so the cows can enjoy the roots as cows find pineapples too hard to chew, when his staff confronted the herdsmen they were shot at some were wounded, village women were raped. The primary duty of a state is protection of life and property, the high authority and Edo state have failed him, when he complained the state did nothing including the police and infact he ended up receiving death threat .Sorry about your loss sir.

The Northerners are just jealously mad because Igbo's want to leave. Deep down, they are praying they remain.
However, there are some who really want them to leave just to inherit their businesses forgetting that businesses don't just spring up, people make things happen. Let Igbo leave and 10years from now, The remain of Nigeria will become a shadow of its old self.

Hey like I said earlier, I am not Biafra.I am from Edo state. Also, I am not advocating that SS should join Biafra. In fact, the Edo I come from can be self sufficient as a country if need be, OK. If Igbo say they want to go and you guys feel you no longer want to accommodate them just because they are bold enough to voice out their pains and agonies, then let our law makers hasten the process of releasing them so they can go in peace.

PoliticsRe: Senate Warns Against Actions, Utterances That Jeopardise Nigeria’s Unity by igbeke(op): 1:07pm On Jun 15, 2017
Ok, but 100% implementation of the confab report is the way to roll.
PoliticsSenate Warns Against Actions, Utterances That Jeopardise Nigeria’s Unity by igbeke(op): 1:05pm On Jun 15, 2017
The Senate on Wednesday urged Nigerians to desist from actions and utterances capable of jeopardising the corporate existence of the country.

The upper chamber also charged its members to intensify their representative role by embarking on sensitisation in their constituencies to highlight harmonious and peaceful co-existence.

This was predicated on `The Need for National Unity and Peaceful Co-existence in Nigeria”, a motion sponsored by 108 senators at plenary.

They said that the greatest challenge facing Nigeria was the threat to national unity, adding that calls for self-determination, ethnic and religious intolerance had enveloped national consciousness.

The lawmakers noted that since independence, national integration had been the priority of government.

According to them, this led to the establishment of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), the Federal Character Commission and others intended to achieve national integration.

The lawmakers said that various integration policies and programmes had yielded some desired outcomes, adding however, that there was more to be done as primordial ethnic sentiments and loyalties were still deep-rooted.

They decried the situation where some citizens, rather than work for integration of a nation with a common national identity, were preaching and supporting primordial affiliation for identity and security.

“Recently, there have been clamouring for ethnically-based and regionally-supported threat to one united Nigeria in various parts of the country.

“The amalgamation of the Southern and Northern Protectorates in 1914 was not a mistake, but a design by the Almighty God as a nation of brothers and sisters united in common destiny.

“We commend the spirit of patriotism and nationalism exhibited by Nigerians in support of our journey to nationhood,” they said.

Earlier, Sen. Shehu Sani (APC-Kaduna) had stated that since 1960 Nigeria had experienced “`series of convulsion” in its journey to nationhood.

“As we desire to have a single nation, it is very important that politicians from all sides of the divide and from all political zones recommit and rededicate themselves to the unity and collective peace of Nigeria.

“Politicians from the South-East, South-West and South-South must have the courage, conviction and the consistence to insist on one nation.

“Likewise, politicians from the North must have the courage, conviction and that consistence to insist that this is an in-dissolvable union,” he said.

Sani pointed out that peace was the soul of a nation, adding that everything was founded on peace.

He said that politicians from the South-East must unreservedly, unambiguously and unequivocally condemn this separatist agitation that was coming up.

“Politicians from the North must unreservedly and unambiguously condemn anarchists that are trying to set this country ablaze,” he said.

The lawmaker said that it was by taking a definite position and not sitting on the fence that serious issues could be addressed.

“We need what is necessary to further strengthen our unity; agitations, complaints and grievances are genuine national issues. We are to look at them and address them.

“We must look at the possibility of reconstructing our country and coming up with a new master plan that will address the very important challenges that we are facing in the 21st century,” he said.

The Chief Whip, Sen. Olushola Adeyeye, said that the nation was at a point where it was obvious that the leadership and the citizenry had forgotten nothing because they had learnt nothing from our history.

“The history of the world has clearly shown that unity pays. They realise that having tiny, disparate and non-viable economic units cannot be completed in the world.

“We must conduct ourselves in such a way that we can stay united. Unity is an end in itself. It ought to be a means to an end and that means should be the progress of our people.

“We must destroy the myth of the greener grass. Every section of Nigeria thinks that life is better elsewhere.

“The truth is every part of Nigeria is struggling. We have a duty to turn it into paradise.

“We can make it if we walk together and stay united,” Adeyeye said.

Similarly, Sen. Magnus Abe (APC-Rivers) said “we have a union that is not perfect but we can make it better.

“There is no country that becomes a great country merely by circumstance or by chance. Great nations are built by the sacrifice of its citizens.

“Our diversity is our greatest challenge but it is also our greatest strength.

“We must come together and build a strong, virile and prosperous nation,” Abe said.

In his remarks, Deputy President of the Senate, Mr Ike Ekweremadu, who presided at the plenary, said that the patriotism exhibited by the senators was one thing that stood the Senate out.

“We are better off united; we are better off a just and equitable society.

“It is not time to look at ourselves as either black or white. Our beauty lies in the mix of our colours,” he said.

He called for restraint from all quarters to ensure a prosperous, united and egalitarian society.

“We must show leadership as leaders. It is not time to leave the leadership of this country to ad hoc tendencies.

“In doing so, we must address the fears and complaints of our citizens. I believe this is what we have started today,” Ekeremadu said.

Meanwhile, the Senate has urged the Federal Government to as matter of urgency forward the Report of the National Conference to the National assembly for deliberation.
