Tell him oo my brother. Wind don blow open south west nyash. Now they are trying hard to cover their shame. They said our land is cursed yet we are doing better than them. The Lagos that we invaded is the only state doing well in their region. What a shame for a people who have boasted being better than us over the years.

bashydemy:
Are you in this country when GEJ and Okonjo Iweala slashes States Allocation? Someone states are trying to build up to be able to attract foreign investors so as to increase their IGR and that was why they get loan to rebuild the states. Go and check how South West States Government borrow to build states before GEJ Govt slash their allocations and ask banks to stop giving loans and also be deducting the previous loans from the incoming allocations.

IGBOSON1:
^^^Do yourself a favor and shut da fuc/k up! You sound more desperate with every subsequent post on a topic which as a Yoruba man you should be watching from the sidelines!

I'm Igbo....i'm from Rivers State (i know.....blame Gowon for that).....and i'm in full support of what Biafra stands for!

The mistake you meddlesome bastards usually make is that you equate Biafra to secession and nothing more! Biafra represents freedom of choice...freedom for a people to determine their own destiny....freedom from being shackled in the same country with conniving, evil scum like you!

So just shut up!

Ndigbo Hail Buhari Over Ministerial Portfolios

Ndigbo Cultural Society of Nigeria (NCSN) has congratulated President Mu­hammadu Buhari for appointing Ndigbo with worthy ministerial portfolios which complements the recent appointments of federal permanent secretaries.

The group noted that the recent appoint­ments by Buhari indicated that the presi­dent is beginning to correct the earlier al­leged posture of sectionalism.

We urge our ambassadors in the Presi­dent Buhari administration to give their best to the nation and mankind, even though the economic fortunes of the coun­try was at all time low, we expect our am­bassadors to be shining lights at this dark end of the tunnel.

“While we commend President Mu­hammadu Buhari,we also encourage him to still take a giant step forward and en­sure that an Igbo is appointed into the six principal offices of the nation, possibly the position of the Secretary to the Federal Government (SGF), which will help Igbo leaders convince their kits and kin that no region is left behind in this government,” the group further stated.

“Ndigbo Cultural Society of Nigeria (NCSN) would also like to plead with our people seeking self-deter­mination to understand that, sometimes, your worst enemy could be your best friend and, therefore, for the avoidance of doubt, give President Mu­hammadu Buhari a chance to prove himself a friend or foe,” it concluded.

Sorry you don't seem to understand how Govt is run, check the statistics again and check the monthly salaries of Osun state alone it's more than 5 South east states differently. Check again no South East States pay salaries up to Osun state so go check again.

Don't mind her, she thinks they're extroverts
Girls go mess after eating shawarma and ice cream, cum wear pampers during menses, not to talk less of the yama yama discharge that oozes out of that cesspool of filth they call toto and one e-diot has the effrontery to call a guy that sniffs their disease-ridden panties and survives, a pervert?? Why, he deserves a medal of bravery. Prolly noticed a foul stench in the air and traced its origin to your pant

hedonistic:
I'm a graduate, not AM a graduate. Isn't it shameful how most 'graduates' in Nigeria do not know the difference between I'm and am?

By the way, I need a job, not "I need job". Madam graduate, it's a fiercely competitive labour market out there. At this rate you might stand a better chance of getting 'job' by putting your School Cert forward and downplaying your 'graduate' status.

vanunu:
As an etche man, i am for biafra, one nigeria is only for our oil. The day the oil will finish is the day hausafulani and yoruba will kick us out. What will we tell our children. Stewpid elders without brain.

RisingSun1:
Who made these people elders?

I can recall that the first city that started this protest was PH last month.The first PH protest was done by Rivers IPOB no outside help.

It was due to heavy clampdown by security agencies in Rivers not to stage another protest that Rivers IPOB had to call in members from neighbouring states for assistance.

These must be Rivers APC elders,because many rivers indigenes are in detention because of this protest while these socalled elders are here talking rubbish.

If all the people in this pic are from other state,then where are the Rivers indigenes in the streets of Port Hartcourt?

ezeagu:
It's a bit encouraging that I haven't seen any Igbo Rivers group or non-governmental Igbo leader from Rivers or otherwise condemn these peaceful protesters, yet. Until an Igbo community in Rivers condemns these protesters, or outrightly rejects a 'Biafra', all other messages are irrelevant.

NB: "Port Harcourt" is Igboland, Igbo people do not confine themselves to that fabrication called 'south east' and 'south south'.

FYI, Igbos have never depended on crude oil to achieve success and so do not intend banking on it to make any progress as a Nation.

How much cfude oil do Japan, Luxembourg and Switzerland land have and yet they are among the top best economies in the world?

The most important is having oil in your brain not under the ground.

So you can keep on masturbating with your lies and propaganda!

I am glad that you are now making a conscious effort to get some verifiable facts unlike when you harp like Nnamdi Kanu, you must thank me for giving your thought process a sense of direction.
Igbos don't depend on oil you said, a landlocked SE Biafra stand no chance of importation, over 70% of successful Igbos are importers, what is that new business that will spin the economy of South east Biafra, rituals?

As per being landlocked and not having access to the sea, is totally false. But you must note that having access to the sea is not a guarantee for success country e.g Somalia.

Let me educate you a bit; Porthacourt port and Apapa wharf are not by the sea or on the coastline.
They are inlands and ships go through waterways to get to them. Not having coastline is not more important than having waterways. A number of countries are landlocked and yet have achieved far more success than Nigeria.

Anambra has the River Niger running between the borders of Onitsha and Asaba. Imo has the Imo River. Abia has Obuaku. Ebonyi has the river at Ikwo. Of the 5 SE States, 4 have waterways through which they can access the Ocean.

" You don't have a line of defense when the same organ of Govt to serve that purpose have collapsed. As a matter of fact thanks to the Wisdom of Obasanjo, who relinquished Bakassi to Cameroon, Cameroon would have changed its capital to Abuja, and Nigerians taken to slavery".~ jpphilips

Fablonwa:
The assumptions here are very INCORRECT. @Ops you write what you do not understand and thought you have navigated through history - pure IGNORANCE. Let me educate you on the difference between Biafran agitation and what you wrote about the Falkland island war, Japanese and German wars and consequences. The Falkland war was a war between 2 sovereign nations fighting to claim ownership of the island; the Japanese and German wars aka World war II was political wars. But Biafran agitation is for SELF DETERMINATION as contained in the international treaty that Nigeria is a signatory to. It is the agitation of indigenous people asking to be allowed to determine their own destiny; Doesn't the constitution of Nigeria allow freedom of association? Must you force people to associate with you? Scotland and Wales even Ireland are all agitating for self determination why has no one reminded them of the baseless facts you just wrote - though out of ignorance. It is not a propaganda, but I assure you that Biafra shall be free someday. You said that they are landlocked and that you will seize their properties in your land; no problem but remember that the properties of Yorubas and Hausas in US, UK, Dubai etc. have not been seized.
If other nations like South Sudan, Eritrea, etc. got their independence, Biafra will; if the soviet union was balkanized, Nigeria will be forced one day to let Biafrans go; As in the days of old when pharaoh thought that he was God and would not let Israelites go, so is Nigerian government feeling that they are alpha and omega and will determine what will and will not happen to Biafrans. but as God of heaven delivered the Israelites from the oppression of Pharaoh so shall God deliver the Biafrans from Nigerian oppression. THIS IS THE TRUTH.
THANK YOU

You must not be scratchin while responding to a post you will likely miss the focal point
The illustration therein was not to educate you on types of wars neither was i implying that all conflicts are the same, the illustration there in is only pointing at "AGONY OF DEFEAT REGARDLESS OF CAUSE" and likely consequences.
I was wondering while reading your post what the US and UK did to Nigeria when they took Biafran money in 1970, nor when Abandon property was declared in the SS?
You may wish to tow me through your own version of History, Nigerians who own properties elsewhere do so within the confines of the laws of those countries, if so, why would Biafra not conform to the land use act of Nigeria?
I never asked Biafra not to get independence, I am only highlighting the stark reality of such independence and plausible consequences to minimize the "cry baby effect" Igbos are used to.

Duru1:
Arrant nonsense!!! The sketches are so incoherent and analogies are at best idiotic. If Biafra has existed for year before Nigeria precipitate the war attrition on it, Nigeria would not have defeated it.

PappyMason:
You are a direct descendant of those fools who sold their brother for a cask of schnapps.

The West built their empire and economy on the backs of Africans and our resources.

If you think they are suddenly changed good people then you are highly delusional.

Duru1:
If you think NADECO was exclusively Yari.ba, it is safe to say you are beyond redemption.

9jacrip:
This is the problem with Yoruba.

You never want to stand up for something. Not even challenge your governors over debts sinking your states.

Leave Biafrans and their threads alone, go form groups to brainstorm over the future of SWest.

PvtParts2:
The only solution Buhari and the APC will sell to you is an IMF loan.

Rather than look at ways to promote local production to prevent wastage of our low forex reserves this administration will borrow to pay the rent on importing finished goods.

To show the total lack of sincerity by the APC led government, Buhari dipped into our low forex reserves to bailout States that are seriously indebt due to the ineptitude and corrupt ways of their respective governors.

This same debts where sourced from banks and the states are poised to default sooner or later. Remember that the liquidity taken out of circulation in granting this debt facility to states with nothing to show for ought to have been made available to genuine small and medium businesses to promote real growth! The rescheduling of the debt repayments was also outlined as one of the measures to help the states out. Now this means that lending interests rates will surely soar.But by far the most stupid thing about this bailout is that after dipping into our forex reserves to bail the states the CBN can not meet up with forex demands thereby putting more pressure on the naira which inevitably has since seen inflation rates soar.

This is change for you!

Jonathan in the wake of the crashing dollar decided to diversify Nigeria's foreign reserves which was based on dollars to other currencies especially the Chinese RMB. Jonathan was also pushing the BRIC agenda in Africa.

So why will this bother the great United States? Because the United States needs other poor countries to accept their worthless paper currencies in other to shore it. With more countries dumping the dollar you can expect the dollar to revert to it's original value - paper!

It is through this heavily artificial wealth that the US has maintained its global hegemony in global economic affairs.

The two most vocal leaders in our time who voiced opposition to the dollar being the global currency are since long dead - Gaddafi of Libya and Chavez of Venezuela who was poisoned with a Cancer Virus.

The US crashed oil prices with the help of Saudi Arabia which up till now is still pumping more oil than is needed in the international market. If you think this is mere conspiracy theory then read this http://foreignpolicy.com/2015/06/03/saudi-arabia-takes-out-its-energy-weapon-opec-russia-putin-iran-oil/. It details how the Saudis on the behest of the US was able to usher in a regime change in Iran by flooding the energy market with cheap oil.

It doesnt stop there, the US also blocked all imports of Nigeria crude to further cripple the Nigerian govt of much needed cash. The US detailed the rise of Shale oil but that wasn't the case as Shale oil production became financially nonviable in the wake of cheap Saudi crude. You must also note that US energy demand has been dropping considerably since the last decade and this is not due to shale, excess crude or US reserves coming up stream but the simple fact that the US is still much in a very painful recession. The only thing the US has now is the dollar - take out the dollar and see the rot behind the capitalist fraud.

Obama was so desperate to get rid of Jonathan that he even loaned his personal campaign manager to Buhari and did all he could to promote Boko Haram insurgency in the north by blocking much needed military hardware to the Nigerian Army.

"The second thing we look at is the human rights situation in that country. And as we look at equipment transfers, we look at the situation in those countries in the past few years. And as you all know, there have been instances (I’m not saying across the board) of human rights abuses by the Nigerian military in the North-East"..............Mr Entwistle

Duru1:
I have no pity whatsoever for those scallywags that parade themselves as south-south and remains the main reason I strongly insist on the Republic of Igbo land. I guess not every domesticated jackass is worthy of being a compatriot. There are those who will remain a fool forever, period.

Duru1:
It is pity most Nigerians are starkly ill-educated. Besides tribalism, the next inhibiting factor in Nigeria is dishonesty. There is no doubt you are not from SE hence the idiotic question about what they should eat. I guess you are the basement ninny feeding the SE today. Besides the idiotic SS crap, may I ask your ethnicity that you are so ashamed? By the way, one of the best economies in Africa is situated in a landlocked country with no single drop of crude oil.

Now to the matter of Zik-Eyo Ita face-
off:On the eve of the 1951 elections in
which Azikiwe contested for a seat in the
Western House of Assembly from his
Lagos base, Zik declared that he was not
going to accept a ministerial post in “an
inferior legislature of the colonial type”.
In other words, he was not prepared to
serve as minister (premier or prime-
minister) at regional or national level in
the then premature Nigerian political
system. His object, he said, was to
achieve an NCNC majority in the regional
and central legislatures that would act to
“paralyse the machinery of government”
and lead to a reformation of the
Constitution.The Macpherson Constitution
had provided for “semi-responsible
government” at the centre and in the
regions.
The official phrase was “responsible
government within defined limits”. Zik did
not accept this. He wanted total
independence. This was what informed
his declaration above. It was a grand
tactics for national independence that the
Action Group later imbibed.
After the upheavals in the Western House
of Assembly,Zik began to rally his
partymen to the achievement of the
above-stated objectives. This took some
time. Eventually, however, the NCNC
resolved and called its central ministers
to resign in order to actualise the above
independence strategy.
But these ministers were now enjoying
their new stations in life, the perquisites
of ministerial office. Some of them did
not, therefore, want to give up the
positions. In so doing, they were
undoubtedly sabotaging and delaying the
independence struggle that had already
got them to where they were.
Three NCNC central (national) ministers
were the first culprits and were summarily
dismissed from the party. They were
A.C.Nwapa (Igbo), EniNjoku (Igbo) and
Okoi Arikpo(Ogoja).
ONLY DrEndeley (Cameroun) was
supportive of the tactics.Eyo Ita, the Head
of Government Business in Eastern
Nigeria and some of his ministers picked
against the policy and were flabbergasted
when the central ministers were
dismissed by the party. Of course, when
the party asked them to resign, they
equally rebelled against the party and
refused to comply. They became known
as ‘sit-tight ministers’.
Amongst them wereEyoIta (Ibibio),E.I.Oli
(Igbo), S.J.Una (Ogoja), R.I.Uzoma (Igbo),
S.W.Ubani-Ukoma (Igbo) and
S.J.Koripoma (Ijaw). Those who complied
with party directive and resigned were
Dr.M.I.Okpara (Igbo), M.C.Awgu (Igbo)
and S.T.Muna (Bamenda, Cameroun).

Obiagu1:
People get wiser as they grow old.
If there's any growth intellectually in the SS, they should have learnt one thing or another from Nigeria and dangers the future portends.

You have asked for resource control for over how many years now, asking from people that should not, in the first place, be in control of your destiny and your resources.

Unfortunately, there seem to be no wisdom in the SS.
How many of them know how long Nigerian oil are meant to last? If they do, they will know they don't have time. It's either they make full use of their resources now or suffer down the line.

You are asking for 30% from an Hausa man when you can get 100% from Biafra.
There's no wisdom, there is none.

OP is fool who fails to distinguish bw self determination and military affront/attack
Japanese and Germans attacked the world based on their acclaimed superior ideology while biafrans want freedom from Hausa/fulani tyranny
Mind you if nigeria could eliminate igbos theywould hv done that

Yorubas prefer to destroy their own rather than help them. They don't want those below them to succeed. They always promise and fail. If a Yoruba man promise you a job, just forget it. You will just be wasting your time reminding him.

And this is your idea of 'One Nigeria' where you persistently rob Peter to perennially pay parasitic Paul,

xtrorse:
Here is a list of some of your greedy kinsmen who looted and ruined the fortune of this country. And this is your idea of 'One Nigeria' where you persistently rob Peter to perennially pay parasitic Paul, and still continue to spill innocent blood to maintain the status quo in the polity.
