US 94, though l did not watch many games because of the time of the matches.

Kenneth Anderson and Swedish team, Stoichkov and leskov (his offside made them disqualified Stoichkov's free kick goal against Nigeria), our then dazzling super eagles (Italy sweat plus ojoro before dey could defeat us) and Fine boy George Campus of Mexico got my keen interest in the tornament.

I can still remember the solo goal from defense by a Saudi Arabian player against Belgium (l think was the goal of the tormanent).

preventable deaths everywhere in Nigeria, what Nigeria cannot destroy or kill does not exist. Imagine a beautiful and promising young life terminated like that because of failures of governments.

Nigeria bu aru! Tufiakwa!!

These things are common things one learn in basic science or Biology classes, an average student should know these things or at least say something related.

Anyway most women follow the money and many money guys don't have time for this and mostly don't care about science subjects.

When they did not see any tangible thing to attack/demarket the very capable man, they snoop around looking for anything around him..... today, it's his supporters , tomorrow it will be his gap tooth.
Petty people everywhere!

Anyway, Nigeria will never progress again until that fraudulent 1999 Constitution is completely replaced with a better Constitution with complete devolution of powers from the centre.
Nigeria is dead and buried, and her people are irredeemably damaged by the corrupt system she practice.

Peaceful Disintegration is the only solution now, my people already have the restoration of our home in sight.

BIAFRA! our only hope!!

sapele914:
Some people will not like this information.

Since it did not happen in Biafra Country, it can’t be true.

They will demand Kodak moment evidence.

You should know that the average Igbo man does not hate or hinder good developments in other regions. We're only not happy about the ill treatments the Nigerian state is giving us and its blatant justification/hate for our people/region by devilish entities like you.

All we asked was live and let live, manage and develop your nation while we manage ours.
The Nigerian state/her leaders has proven to be incompetent to drive this geographical area into prominence amongst civilised nations of the world.

And for the records, we Igbos only envy the US, Japan, Israel and other developed/civilized 1st world nations and not even South Africa much less any other place in this shit hole we find ourselves.

Just bear this in your mind, we can no longer be held back by this Fulani/terrorist led failed Nigerian state. That era/grace period has passed, we will continue to reject/resist this failed Nigeria and her hateful children like you, we won't give in to the blackmail, economic sabotage, killing/imprisonment of our innocent youths and the various vices used by this terrorist govt to subjugate our people.

Never!!

We hv rejected everything about this blood sucking Nigeria.

Biafra is the only way.

Biafra or Death!!!

Biafra has come.

ChukwuOkike is with Us.

Basiliun:
i wonder how a woman would kill her husband with sex, is it by forcing him to lie on top of her or by druging him to have sex with her, i can't understand

I think it has to do with the tradition of the particular community (l read this happened in Aguleri), the lady slept with another man and then with her husband which killed him instantly.

They said if a married lady hv sex with another man and still allow her husband to sleep with her, the man will drop dead instantly once he does that.

The tradition of the land and according to them, the lady killed her hubby simply by sleeping with another man
And l think this is the real story.

wasted lives, youths wake up and leave the compromised Nigeria force else you will be wasted like these ones and the FG won't even give a shit.

Look at young bloods destroyed for fighting a useless war.
Well, Nigerian youths have proven to be silly, they rather protest for SARS or trek for/defend Buhari/Tinubu than demand for a constitutional change and rescue the country from these old wicked men.

Oh my Biafra, come and save umu Chineke from this plague of a country called nigga area.

No one fights umu Chineke and come out victorious.......restructure the country, you said no, allow us to live peacefully, you said no and then allow us to leave peacefully, you still say no.

You just want to put us down and expect umu Chineke to stay down? Impossicant!!!

Umu Chineke nwe mmeri na nke Ikpeazu a.
ChukwuOkike abiama gozie IPOB/ESN, gozie MNK.

May Devil kill all terrorists and kidnappers, robbers in Nigeria, from boko haram, to ipob terrorist organizations, esn, bandits, evil ones among the herdsmen, ritualists, cannibals,
kidnappers etc

Any sane, honest and hardworking Nigerian will gladly say AMEN to the above if they know they are not supporting and cheering on terrorists and murderers in this nation.

Karma knows everyone address and posterity will judge us all, whether for good or for bad..

If you keep supporting evil, wickedness and all manner of bad things,
Those bad vices will surely follow you wherever you go.

We Rise.

Nigeria has dealt with you. Nigeria have impoverished you. Fulani herdsmen have wiped off your community. You have watched as your government recruited those they called repentant Boko Haram terrorists into the military. But any moment you get megabytes you rush to insult IPOB......

simply delusional!!!


Very soon Bokoharam and co will run over the Nigeria govt and dundee like you will definitely gnash ur teeth when you see Biafrans become free at last, but then it will be too late.
Saving Nigeria is just like giving drugs to a dead corpse.

What a dead country with delusional Yoruba muslims!

9Pluto:
*The economy of the former Eastern Region was planned from ground up by the US consulting firm Arthur D. Little.*

*Dr. Azikiwe brought them and they worked with M I Okpara at first, then with Sam Otti and later Eluwa who headed the Civil Service and later with Sir Louis Phillip Odumegwu Ojukwu who at the time was the Chairman of the Eastern Nicerian Development Corporation (ENDC) and also the Chairman of the Eastern Nigeria Commodities Board (ENCB)*

Louis Phillip Odumegwu Ojukwu also sat as Chairman of 15 multinational companies at the time - John Holt, PZ, Michelin, Costain, Thomas Wyatt, Guinness, GB Ollivant etc

He was so rich that he single handedly funded the establishment of the Lagos Stock Exchange but refused to list his company there for fear of losing control

His photo still hangs proudly on the floor of that exchange as its first chairman

*Arthur D Little also worked with a coterie of young Eastern Nigerian economists at the time - Pius Okigbo (PhD Northwestern), Ukwu I. Ukwu (PhD Cambridge), Chukwu Sunday Okongwu (PhD Harvard). These young men in their early twenties worked with Arthur D Little to plan our economy from scratch*

I know this because Ukwu I Ukwu taught me at Nsukka and I also worked in Dr Chu SP Okongwu's economic planning firm right during and after grad school in Nigeria.

*Arthur D. Little recommended the setting up of a university in the East to produce key skills needed to drive economic growth as most of those skills were not being taught in Ibadan at the time*

*Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe sent Dr Akpabio (MA Columbia) who at the time was the East's Minister of Education on an extended tour to universities in Michigan and New York for collaboration in key fields like medicine, engineering,, surveying and photogrammetry and business administration.*

*UNN was the first school in Nigeria to offer many of these courses.* Ibadan at the time taught mostly Classics, General Science and later Medicine

*Palm oil, Palm Kernel, Coal, Cocoa (from Ikom), Coffee from Obudu and later petroleum from firstly Izombe - Oguta area and later from Oloibiri in Ijaw land drove the economy of the East*

*In terms of development, the East started late, compared to the West.*

*Development and education had started in Lagos and Abeokuta right after Beecroft occupied Lagos in 1850s and made it a British colony. Lagos and the SW thus had more than a 70 year headstart over the East in terms of total gross capital formation and the platform that it gave for growth.*

*But after the implementation of Arthur D Little's recommended growth plan, the East's economy grew at more than 9.2%, starting from 1958 till 1967 when the war began*

*At over 9%, the Eastern Region in this period, had the fastest growing economy on earth consistently for 9 years and was estimated to equal Western Nigeria by 1978 (in terms of total gross capital formation) and then overtake the Western Region after that.*

The civil war truncated that momentum and the East never recovered after that.

*Louis Philip Odumegwu Ojukwu brought his industrial influence to bear on the growth plan as he singlehandedly pushed for the establishment of not just industrial estates but industrial corridors in the region.*

*An industrial estate is localized. An industrial corridor joins two or more industrial estates to form an industrial conurbation.*

*Industrial estates sprang up across the East TransAmadi in PH.*

*Aba for light industries.*

*Umuahia for biotechnology.*

*Emene in Enugu for steel and industrial automation.*

*Nkalagu, PH and Calabar for cement and building materials.*

*Onitsha as an emporium to drive retail trading.*

*Obudu in Cross River for dairy, holidaying and corporate meetings.*

*Because he was the chairman of 15 multinational companies at the time, he used his influence to compel many of them to buy into the East's industrialization plan.*

*Okpara also partnered with Israel for the setting up of industrial farms and plantations - seedling production, extension services, assistance to farmers etc.*

*So plantations (cashew nuts, palm kernel, cocoa, coffee, timber etc) sprang up in Oghe (Enugu State), Okigwe (Abia State), Obudu, Itumbenuzor, Akamkpa all in Cross River state and in various parts of Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Imo, Abia etc.*

*Okpara personally delivered some of the seedlings himself by driving behind the trucks that did the delivery.*

*Sir Louis Phillip Odumegwu Ojukwu pushed for the establishment of 3 major cement plants in the region - Nkalagu, Eastern Bulkcem in PH and Calabar cement factory in Calabar.*

*Nkalagu and PH opened before the war started in 1967. Everything for the take off of the Calabar cement factory was purchased but the war truncated its take off.*

*In 1970, Governor Esuene of the newly-created Cross River State opened Calcemco plant to the appause of many.*

*Three industrial corridors were planned also planned for the East*

*The Emene-Nkalagu Industrial corridor which was to focus on automobiles, building materials and industrial automation. Kaiser Motors in the US at the time (it has since been acquired) had agreed to build a car plant in Emene and a plant for car engines. That corridor was to stretch for almost 100 miles*

*The second industrial corridor was to stretch between PH and Aba. So industrial centers were set up in Trans Amadi and in Aba and over a ten to 15 year period, these two centers were to be linked by many feeder industries that would be located on the highway joining both cities.*

*Okpara had hoped that over time, the PH-Aba industrial corridor would follow the old road between Port Harcourt and Enugu and join with the Emene - Nkalagu industrial corridor to create a massive industrial cornubation that almost imitates the almost 200 kilometer Ruhr Industrial Valley in Germany built under Chancellor Otto Von Bismarck*

*Onitsha was to drive the East's Retail economy and so the market was built there as an Emporium...to attract buyers from all over Nigeria and West and Central Africa so they could come spend their money in the East.*

*Dubai would copy this same model 50 years later and implement it successfully but on a global scale. Onitsha market achieved its purpose by 1958, two years after the East achieved self government. It became the preferred destination for retail and bulk shoppers from a over West Africa and even Cameroon, Gabon and Congo. This gave the Anambra Igbo a head start in retail trading...an advantage that they enjoy till date.*

*All of these development and growth projects were centrally driven by the Eastern Nigeria Development Corporation - ENDC and the revenues were centrally aggregated into the account of the Eastern Nigerian Commodities Board (ENCB). Both groups were headed by Sir Louis Phillip Odumegwu Ojukwu*

*Funds for development came mostly from 3 sources.*

*1. Local revenues from the export of cocoa(Ikom and Itumbenuzor), coffee (Obudu and Arochukwu), timber (Akamkpa) Coal (Enugu-Udi), Palm oil (Rivers, Imo, Abia), Palm kernel (Rivers, Imo, Abia)*

*2. Direct Foreign Investments*

*3. Loans from Commonwealth Development Corporation (CDC)*

*Umuahia was to midwife the Easts' biotechnology industries which explains why Golden Guinea Brewery and the Root Crop Research Instutute were established there.*

*Obudu because of its pristine hills and its fresh weather was to be a holiday resort for many as well as a primary center for a dairy industry that just started before the war commenced. Obudu Cattle Ranch was the first in a series of investments that got scuttled in Obudu by the war.*

*Lastly, oil was discovered late. Chief Nwodo, Eastern Nigeria's first Minister for Trade (father to the past Ohaneze Chairman) negotiated the first contracts with Shell on a 50-50 investment and sharing basis.*

*Virtually all of the East's oil assets were seized by the Federal Government under Gowon with no compensation paid till date. The Federal Government simply inherited the East's 50% slot and paid nothing for it. Today everyone profits from it*

*Most of the catalytic cracking and downward refineries that NNPC would later build were in the plans that the Eastern Regional Government had for the region.*

*Today, some of those plants are located in far away Kaduna and no mention is ever made of the East.*

*Every Nigerian today depends on that oil to survive including states that claim that they can survive from internally-generated revenues.*

*I believe that rather than whine everyday, we Igbos should sit down and learn our history...take a look at the growth plans that got scuttled in 1967 and see how we can work to together to pick up the pieces and build again from scratch*

*Nnamdi Ezeji*

An interesting read. Nice piece, loosing the war retrogressed our growth as a nation.

But we can't pick up the pieces and build again when the power/resources belong to the Nigerian FG, at best we'll continue with the current economic strides we're achieving at the moment albeit very small.

The role of govt in development is indispensable, the economic plan and it's implementation is chiefly championed by the govt with the necessary power and resources.

Until we rescue ourselves once more from this backward unitary system of govt practiced in Nigeria, Nigeria will keep holding us back. And the fact that these mediocre people currently in charge are comfortable with the backwardness of the country is not helping any matter. All they care about now is that power belongs to my kinsmen regardless if the person has a brain in his head.

The only foreseeable solution now is breaking up of this entrapment called Nigeria.

HacheNoire:
Same Ekerewemandu than IPOB wanted to lynch?

Man has a heart of gold.

If someone try that with me, I would have offered a prison warden 50 million Naira to help poison him.

He was lynched for wearing that devilish Zoo's coat of arms dress to ogbako umu chineke.
He himself knew that he was very stupid to put on that mumu dress, we don't do eye service, if an adult decide to be thoughtless and behave like a naughty child, he will be chastised like a child too.
He's still our beloved son/brother and he has Igbo interests at the back of his hand no matter how little it is.

And yes he has a heart of gold unlike wicked saddist like you that wants him to turn his back on MNK. You will always be disappointed because Igbos love themselves. #Udo

PrinceOfLagos:
I bet those guys voted for Buhari

They are now packaging another Buhari in the person of Bola Tinubu

Let's see if Nigerians will make same mistake again in 2023

Contrary to what most people believe, the leaders is not the major problem, Nigeria's problem is the system of her government. A corrupt system/Constitution can only produce corrupt people.

Until that is changed, the country will continue to sink real fast.
Only a transparent system can reduce/checkmate the menaces of corrupt leaders.

Well, Nigerians are habitual hypocrites, they will rather knock the head than punish the buttocks that farted.

udele1:
Some Brainwashed Igbo's say Nnamdi Kanu opened tbeir eyes. They said he is a blessing to Igbo's. Let us analyse this blessing.

Today we look at the economic impact of IPOB in igboland.

The average poor igbo person in igboland, spends a minimum of 40,000 a month.

In a year they spend 480,000.

Since the introduction of Kanu's IPOB, over 1000 Igbo's have died.

We assume those igbos had more 20 years to live.

So we have 480,000 x 20 x 1000= 9,600,000,000

Now for the person to spend 40,000 a month, he/she has to make more than that. So we assume the 40,000 represents 80% of their monthly income. So they are left with 20,000 saved.

So we look at 20,000 x 12 × 1000 x 20 = 4,800,000,000


Now what ever they earn a year, directly or indirectly, they pay at least 5% of it annually in tax.

So assuming they earn 60,000 monthly, we look at

60,000 x 12 x 20 x 1000 - 5% = 13,680,000,000 this is what the SE region would have generated in tax in 20 years.

We look at the cost of properties destroyed. Police cars burnt, houses destroyed etc.

Lets place that at 3,000,000,000

The above will just be a minimum. Other factore that can't be measured are bellow.

NIGHTLIFE
In the process of the Unknown Gunmen saga in IMO, Nightlife was affected. Curfews placed in Anambra, Aba, IMO etc.

This greatly affected hotel, eatries, bars, clubs etc. If i place an estimate of 10,000,000,000 within this time, it would be too small.


DIVERTED INVESTMENTS

The level of diverted investment from the east is far more than the calculations above.

You can't imagine the level of real estate investment diverted to lagos.

The more the sit at home, the more sane Igbo's move their investment out of igboland.

It is becoming clear why multinationals will always have their headquarters in SW.

IPOB is gradually crippling the economy of the SE.

POLITICALLY

Every region knows that it is morally right for power to move to the South East after Buhari. But IPOB have further given the north and other regions reasons not to support an Igbo candidate.

Will they support and Igbo presidential candidate that will divide Nigeria?

How these people believe that a registered organisation in UK will divide Nigeria, still baffles me.

Israel did not get them the Biafra, they moved it to Donald trump, now it is ambazonia.

By 2023, Igboland will be far behind other regions Economically and Politically .

I am even wondering if it is Tinubu and Fulani that is sponsoring this IPOB.

To ensure south eastern Nigeria is no longer Politically and Economically viable.

After todays sit at home, many more igbo businesses will move to lagos.

Ohamadike is a man of the people..

The solidarity shown to him is second to none.

His popularity is growing stronger and his cult followership is tripling as the day goes bye.

He has engraved his name with gold ink on the rock of eternity and posterity will judge him right.

Breeze will blow, rain will fall, sun will shine and the earth may shake but Chukwu Okike Abiama who has began the good work of actualizing the freedom of the Igbo nation will bring to a perfect fulfillment.

Holy.. Holy.. Holy.. Nnamdi Kanu is Another Savior.

Idiots, they should also Ban the Use of Naira Notes

Don't worry, it's only a matter of time. Only fo.ols cannot read the hand writing on the wall. Power belongs to the people.

Kidnapping Our great leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu will be the beginning of the end of this zoological republic.
Anyway, we move, Biafra must be actualized or we perish fighting for it because living in the Zoo.logical republic is worse than death.

He actually has a big point, representing Nigeria in an event, participating in elections that validate these wicked people in governance and all that is the same as supplying nutrients to cancerous cells that are killing you.

Well, Nigerian youths are shortsighted and very selfish. They only think about themselves and their immediate family. It's a shame!

Pure Class! I was actually waiting for your response and as expected, classy!.

Typical ignorant and unintelligent ipob nonsense

hedonido:


That's the most important point. Having ruled for so long and fortified themselves with the resulting benefits of controlling state power, they accumulated enough resources that empowered them for this sort of war.

That's the critical difference between them and the Igbos here for instance. If anything, it's the Fulanis that are in a comparable position.

The difference is that they won the war(which they would have used the opportunity to free themselves but greed did not allow then to see clearly, now they're fighting to free themselves again) but we lost the civil war (that's why Nigeria is killing our people ever since).
Are we going to stay defeated? Never!! That's not the blood that runs in Igbos.

We keep rising up and must free ourselves from our oppressors (Nigeria) even if we have to fight again and again.

It's Biafra or Death!!!

Died fighting a senseless war, educated illiterate.
Southern youths wasting their lives while the northern foolanis rule CBN, NNPC, Federal ministries and co. It's a shame

Nairalandian:
Instead of folks to find something useful to do with their lifes, they'll rather devote their lives to fallacy.

I'm Igbo, nwa Anambra. But I'm very certain that if this Biafra is actualized, it'll still be as useless as other African countries.

South Sudan left Sudan 2011, what is South Sudan today.

Sorry I read my message and I found out i made a lot of mistake , I am just writing with things , she has not really had sex with girl before , she said she just started having sexual urge with girls because she has been watching lesbian since I have been away, she told me she only dated 3 boys, which later I found out she has dated 3 guys, bleeped 2 she had Crush on and they didn’t dated , and cheated with 2 guys , which is making it 7, but she has been denying all these and telling me she only dated 3 boys and had sex 3 times since 2017(3 years) until last year October but she confess to me�

Multiply 7 by 3, that's the minimum number of men she has slept with and you have a bisexual as a potential wife. You will enjoy sex with her, but she won't with you, the sooner you forget about her, the sooner ur misery ends.

He killed himself by joining the Northern Nigerian military, l rather trek to Europe than waste my life in Nigeria army.

Work and earn decently. Invest your time and skills in viable businesses. No amount is too small to start a business, you only need to learn the basic. You can make it in life without gambling!

Life itself is gambling because you only live hoping that tomorrow pans out well for you. You cannot make in life without gambling, you can only decide to gamble on things with lowest possible risks.

Businesses, education, sports, manufacturing, traveling and what have you are all forms of gambling which we engage in daily with the hope of success. Many are making 3k daily from Bet9ja and the likes by selecting 'only few sure games' thereby reducing the risks of loosing daily.

So choose your own path, learn how to minimize and possibly overcome the risks involved, take it one step at a time and only then will success be inevitable.

Well factually that's not correct.

In 2015 COPA America, Messi scored the only Penalty for Argentina but the team lost after others missed theirs. I guess it is very convenient to forget this and move unto the 2016 miss forgetting the one before, right?

what of in 2011 copa final against Uruguay, the miget missed the spot kick nah
