Politics / Re: Should Ndi-igbo Suspend Seccesionistic Agenda For Now? by lionstone: 1:30pm On Sep 27, 2015
CSTR2:
Nigeria as we know it will never move beyond third world status or at best barely second world. Anybody with a brain knows this.
And as it is normal for any vibrant progressive people, the desire to break free and develop will remain paramount, which is why the biafran agenda is keenly pursued by ndi-igbo.
But then, the question is, [/color]At what cost?[color=#000000].
The lofty agenda of biafra has made the igbo nation lose sight of more immediate concerns in the Nigerian political sphere, and has created a vacuum of power in the south, which has given some southern opportunistic groups an undue advantage in the whole power play.
The current system where ndi-igbo have not produced a president for decades is unacceptable.
The first president and the father of an independent Nigerian nation was an igbo man. Igbo sons and daughters were prominent Nigerian politicians and power brokers in the 60s when Nigeria still had any atom of promise.
Yes, the murder of tafawa balewa set us back politically, and the civil war nailed the coffin, but we should have recuperated politically by now if our leaders knew what they were doing.
The childish angle by which ndi-igbo pursue biafra at the expense of current realities is unworthy of the igbo nation.
We need to wake up and take the bull by the the horn.!!!
Biafran actualization should be left to diasporean igbos, while igbo political leaders in Nigeria may lend a tacit support while pursuing one-Nigeria vocally and all its perks.
We need to go and re-learn the politics of shameless compromise and opportunism of the 60s.
Ohanaeze should rebuild bridges with the north, yes we may need to hold our nose, but the end justifies the means.
Nnamdi azikiwe already laid an example for us in the first republic. We need to go back and re-learn the principles he laid down for us, and apply them atleast for now till biafra becomes in-sight and inevitable.
The actualization of the rightful place of the igbo nation in Nigerian political system is the highest priority right now.

BIAFRA IS TO US EASTERNERS AS ODUDUWA IS TO Southwest AND AREWA TO NORTH.

NO GOING BACK ON BIAFRA.

Biafra will pay the whole debt for the rest of Nigeria in 1year because to us that's not money. Or we will share it 95percent to 5percent as that was how the borrowed money was spent.

You are on point but Biafra won't pay it for them oh, they must vomit all of it. While we use our excess money build biafra.

Politics / Niger-delta Militants Declare War Against Buhari, Shutting Down Oil Refineries by lionstone: 2:35pm On Sep 24, 2015
The Niger-Delta militants have
declared war to make President
Buhari's tenure ungovernable
as he has refused to meet their
"simple demands."
In a shocking Video released by
the the group, they have shut
down TWO of Nigeria's major oil
producing refineries and have
threatened to take violence to
the north.
They posted the Video online few
hours ago.

Politics / Police Storm Akwa Ibom Lawmaker's Home, Shoot One - Punch by lionstone: 10:13am On Sep 22, 2015
A member representing Uruan Constituency in the Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly, Mr. Aniekan Bassey, escaped being killed after a team of policemen invaded his house at Ekim Enen, in the Uruan Local Government Area.

PUNCH Metro learnt that the policemen, who were in two patrol vans, allegedly stormed the lawmaker’s family house, claiming to be searching for an undisclosed exhibit on Sunday.

An eyewitness, Iquo Edet, told our correspondent that the lawmaker’s cousin, Mr. Akan Bassey, who rushed out of the bathroom to check what was happening, was shot as soon as he disclosed his name to them.

According to Edet, the policeman who shot Akan, might have mistaken him (Akan) for Aniekan, adding that the bullet pierced through his breastplate.

“I think the policemen came for a mission. What exhibit were they looking for? Who has something here to hide?

“If they had succeeded in killing him, they would either say it was an accidental discharge or look for something incriminating to present before the public who will judge him as criminal since the dead cannot talk,” she said.

Aniekan, who spoke with our correspondent on the telephone on Monday, said he was still in shock over the incident. He described the act as shocking and barbaric.

He said, “I quickly rushed to the crime scene which took place around 2pm on Sunday and helped rush the victim to a hospital.”

Aniekan, who did not reveal the name of the hospital, where the victim was taken, said the doctor gave prompt attention to him. He noted that his cousin was lucky that the bullet did not go through his heart.

Aniekan said he would do everything within his power to ensure that the policemen, who were involved in the act, paid for it.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Akwa Ibom State Command, Cordelia Nwawe, said the policeman did not aim the gun at anybody, adding that the incident was an accidental discharge.

She said, “Investigation is ongoing at the moment. The injured victim is undergoing treatment; he is responding to treatment. Hopefully, he will be home tomorrow.

“But the accident did not occur out of malice. Parties concerned have never had any problem. It was an accidental discharge.”

She said the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Murtala Mani, had ordered a diligent investigation into the matter.

Politics / Nigeria Might Still Break Up Under Buhari-pointblanknews by lionstone: 7:48pm On Sep 20, 2015
American and Western European
experts predicted that Nigeria
will disintegrate in 2015. With
the political desperation and
frenzy that marked the political
campaigns of the 2015
presidential election, many
thought that Nigeria was at the
point of the predicted 2015
disintegration. Surprisingly, the
election took place without the
much anticipated violence. And
following the election, the
incumbent president, Goodluck
Jonathan, conceded defeat to the
victorious opposition
presidential candidate,
Mohammudu Buhari. This
forestalled the anticipated
violence and predicted breakup.
Refreshingly, the doomsayers
were proved wrong.
Disturbingly, Nigeria is still not
completely out of the woods; as
it may still break up. The
possibility of conflict and
dissolution of the country
continue to loom because Buhari
is stoking trouble. He is actively
stirring up issues that can lead to
serious national conflicts. Nigeria
is a very complex country, and its
governance is complicated by
tribal, religious and sectional
rivalries. In my viewpoint, Buhari
is insensitive to this complexity
and lacks the finesse and
dexterity needed to govern
Nigeria. With a military
background and orientation, and
a total lack of a liberal education,
he is ill-equipped to preside over
a democratic Nigeria. He has no
refinement, and as such, only
understands the language of
force. He also does not
understand the world order.
Recall that he once referred to
Germany as Western Germany
and Chancellor Angela Merkel as
President Michelle. Those were
just tip of the iceberg.
There is no doubt that
corruption is killing Nigeria, and
that something needs to be done
urgently to deal with it. But you
do not pull the entire house
down simply to kill the rats in the
ceiling. It demands that you
methodically take out the rats
one by one, so that, after the rats
are gone, you still have a house
to live in. He needs to respect the
equality of all Nigerians under
the law. His 95 per cent formula
is naive and counterproductive. A
successful war on corruption is
not necessarily a function of the
number of people jailed. The
emphasis should not be just on
sending people to jail for
corruption, but also, in deterring
acts of corruption. In his fight
against corruption, Buhari
refuses to understand that
Nigeria is a representative
democracy, and not a military
dictatorship or a neo-military
dictatorship.
A democracy is guided by the
rule of law and not the
impulsiveness and arbitrariness
of a retired army general. The
legal process is usually slow and
painstaking. Buhari is impetuous;
hedoes not have the patience
and tolerance for the measured
pace of the law. He wants, at his
whims and caprices, to jail
southern politicians and his
enemies of northern extraction
such as Col. Sambo Dasuki for
corruption. He wants to
rearrange the judiciary, and
reconstruct and expand Kirikiri
Prison. He will then fill the prison
with his political enemies, as all
those he fingered for corruption
will automatically be arrested by
the Economic and Financial Crime
Commission (EFCC) and jailed for
one hundred years or more by a
compliant judiciary, dominated
by northern judges.
Is Buhari’s hypocrisy not
conspicuously obvious? To tackle
corruption, he must first purge
himself of his excess baggage. He
mustapproach equity with clean
hands. How on earth can he fight
corruption when the likes of
Tinubu, Okorocha and former
governor, Amaechi are his
political allies? Please explain it to
me! Amaechi is the man that
funded Buhari’s campaign with
the money he stole from the
coffers of the government of
Rivers State. Buhari, of course,
knew that the funds were stolen
and laundered by the former
governor. At the time he was
splurging stolen money on the
Buhari Presidential Campaign, he
was a sitting governor. He was
not a multibillionaire in the mold
of Dangote. So, the source of the
money was obvious to Buhari.
It is understandable that a
president appoints people that
he is comfortable with to work
with him. But to appoint only his
friends and relatives to pivotal
positions as the Director Generals
ofthe Directorate of State
Security (DSS), Customs and
Immigrations and the Chairman
of the Independent National
Election Commission (INEC) is
nepotism. Nepotism is
corruption. And he insulted the
sensibilities of Nigerians by
justifying the appointments on
the grounds that the appointees
are loyal to him as friends and
relatives. It is wrong for him to
give the impression that only his
friends, relatives and others from
the northern part of Nigeria are
competent, and committed to his
vision. In addition, his punishing
of those regions of the country
that did not vote for him in the
presidential election is grossly
unfair. It is not only setting a
dangerous precedent but
inflames ethnic fury.
My honest advice to Buhari is to
first of all stabilize the economy
and embark on institutional
reforms that will strengthen the
judiciary and the legislature
before delving into other major
divisive issues. However, he is
neither reforming nor
strengthening our national
institutions. Actually, he is
weakening them; he meddles in
the judiciary and remote-controls
the Senate and the House; thus,
undermining the separation of
powers. This is posing a serious
problem for Nigerian democracy
because these branches of
government need to operate
independently.
What we are experiencing today
is a military regime
masquerading as a democracy.
Buhari’s hounding of his political
enemies with Gestapo-styled DSS
raids on state government
houses, private homes, etc
attests to this reality. The
lopsidedness of his
administration’s actions is
causing some silent but powerful
and dangerous ripple. Nigeria is
boiling. I see 1966 coming full
cycle. And if this continues,
Nigeria will break up.

Good morning my fellow realistic Igbo. To add to your great ideas Igbos should start reverse migration. Let us adopt the Indian style of only the man living in Lagos or Kano but his entire family stays back in Igboland. That way he will be forced to invest home and send most of his income home which in turn makes his home keep more of the cash than Lagos.

Let us all go and develop our BIAFRA.
