ThisMeansWAR: South south and south east never have anything in common.. May be it's due to the fact that there are many tribes in South south.. But that region don't usually play politics of bigotry.
Sentiments.... Politics of bigotry indeed... What of the North?
jayfolarin: APC never sidelined the SE, it's the igbos that have shown unwarranted hate towards the party. When APC was being formed, APGA was invited but they pulled out at the last minute, everything was done during the campaign to appease the igbos but they wouldn't have it. They even voted massively out of hate against Ngige despite the promise of the senate presidency. What more could have been done?
Igbos have an history of being unreasonably hateful and ungrateful, I don't see the hatred going away even if buhari transforms the SE into a paradise. IMHO, buhari and the APC do not need to appeal to the igbos in anyway, they should be the least prioritised if there's anything!
The one group that needs that appeasal is the south south. This is because they contribute immensely to the economy and do not practice the politics of bitterness like the igbos. It was understandable that they voted for their son in the just concluded election and even at that, they gave GMB more votes than the SE. Talk about crying more than the bereaved.
With the nigerdelta votes in the bag, the igbo votes becomes completely irrelevant as the worst that can happen is what we witnessed during the election.
Like every other region in nigeria, the SE will feel the wind of change but they should forget any special treatment or prioritised developmental projects. "Every region will be positively affected" that's the best you can get.
Guy, you they wicked oh. See how you suddenly turned it into SS against SE.... Was this the case when the North voted massively against GEJ in 2011?
Ochillary: get a life.. DELTA STATE IS AN IGBOLAND UNDERSTAND THAT!
Who said the whole Delta is an Igboland? Delta is just a name given to the different group of people in a geographical land..... Igbos have some part of Delta. Urhobos has their own part... Itshekiris has theirs. So as the Isoko have theirs.... This was the past northerns leaders handiwork.... Do you remember the 2014 national conference plan to create more additional states?? Anioma state will be coined out from Delta state with Asaba as their capital while Delta state might choose Warri as their state Capital......
Sweetlemon: I don't know why these Igbos like attaching themselves to us by force. They don't just get it that the average south south man does NOT see himself as an Igbo not even the Igbo speaking ones. They will always correct you and say "I am Ikwere, Anioma, etc". Jonathan just used them for politics because the average Ijaw man doesn't give a damn about Igbos on a normal day.
Thrash.... Anioma calls themselves Igbo.... I have met alot of them...
I didn't call u Igbo... Urhobo, Itshekiri are not Igbos.... As far as you are not from the Igbo region in Delta state.... Asaba, Ika people calls themselves Igbo.... Hahahahaha Even Delta state Governor-elect is a pure Blooded Igbo Man....
stynhaq: Nothing Like Delta Igbo; its virtual and non-existent. What we have is Ika(Agbor), Aniocha(Ogwashi-Uku), Ukwani(Kwale, Obiaruku) and Oshimili (Asaba, Ibusa etc). I'm Ika.
and please Tell him Biafra ends at the Niger Bridge. Plus they are landlocked too. That's why the Dream of biafra wont ever work.
Finally, Igbos would sabotage the plans anyways because of their greed considering their investments in Ikeja, Alaba, Apapa, Idumota, Kano etc.

There is no 'igbo' in my state Delta state. We have ukwanis and some delta ibos who will never agree to be called 'IGBOS'... The ikwerres don't call themselves igbos
Biafra is a good dream for the igbos, push for it without the Niger Delta. As the Name implies BIAFRA- it also sounds igbotic!...
God bless your country when you have it.
You deserve a dirty slap.... Delta State? Hahahahaha.... Ika North and South? Asaba? Agbor? E.t.c.....

ISIS operatives have beheaded two groups of prisoners, believed to be Ethiopian Christians, in Libya, according to a video released Sunday by the terror network's media arm.
The al-Furqan Media video -- which is highly produced and titled "Until There Came to Them Clear Evidence" -- shows two groups of men in orange and black jumpsuits being killed at different locations in Libya, according to the video's narrator.
"All praise be to Allah, the Lord and cherisher of the world and may peace and blessings be upon the Prophet Mohammed. To the nation of the cross, we are back again on the sands, where the companions of the Prophet, peace be upon him, have stepped on before, telling you: Muslim blood that was shed under the hands of your religion is not cheap," the narrator says in Arabic on the 30- minute video. A video released by ISIS claims to show two groups of men being killed in Libya.
The narrator continues, "In fact, their blood is the purest blood because there is a nation behind them (which) inherits revenge. And we swear to Allah: the one who disgraced you by our hands, you will not have safety, even in your dreams, until you embrace Islam." Quoting Mohammed, the narrator says that those who "perform prayer and pay alms" will have "their blood and property" protected by the Prophet unless Islam dictates otherwise. "You pay (tax) with willing submission, feeling yourselves subdued. Our battle is a battle between faith and blasphemy, between truth and falsehood, until there is no more polytheism -- and obedience becomes Allah's on its entirety," the narrator says. Earlier in the video, a different speaker says Christians in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul were given the choice to embrace Islam or maintain their Christian faith and pay a tax. "The Islamic state has offered the Christian community this many times and set a deadline for this, but the Christians never cooperated," the speaker says.
Rilwayne001: 2) [size=15pt] Jesus, Joseph, Mary in Egypt [/size] The story of Herod destroying all the children under two years old, belongs altogether to the book of Matthew; not one of the rest mentions anything about it. Had such a circumstance been true, the universality of it must have made it known to all the writers, and the thing would have been too striking to have been omitted by any.
Mathew 2 verse 13 – 16: Now when they had departed. Behold an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, rise take the child and his mother and flee to Egypt and remain there till I tell you, for Herod is about to search for the child and destroy him. and he rose and took the child and his mother by night and departed for Egypt and remained there until the death of Herod.
[size=15pt] According to Luke, Jesus never stepped into Egypy [/size]
Luke 2 v 22- 40: ( a long story, I cant type) Note: following the birth of Jesus, Joseph and Mary remained in the area of Jerusalem for the presentation (about 40 days) and then returned to Nazareth without ever going to Egypt. There was no slaughter of the infants.
This writer of Mattew tells us, that Jesus escaped this slaughter because Joseph and Mary were warned by an angel to flee with him unto Egypt; but he forgot to make any provision for John, who was then under two years of age. John, however, who stayed behind, fared as well as Jesus, who fled; and, therefore, the story circumstantially belies itself...

tartar9: from the same people who have killed millions of innocent Muslims
killed Who? Ask yourself, what was the cause of the Crusade? You forgot the Muslim Ottoman Empire who wanted to conquer Europe but the Crusaders stop it... They Crucified 1.5million Armenian Christians, Crushed the former Christian Country Turkey(now muslim), Conquer the Assyrians(Syria) where the first Christian church was... E.t.c The Islamic ottoman Empire has crucified uncountable Christian in their cause of Jihad during the Middle-dark ages.... Should we continue with that of Usman don fodio?
Empiree: "O ye who believe! If a wicked person comes to you with any news, ascertain the truth, lest ye harm people unwittingly, and afterwards become full of repentance for what ye have done." 49:6
Atleast, u make sense... Take a look at the comment of your brothers, tartar9 and nyabinghi threatening people.... their comments shows that they are likely to join ISIS, if only joined already....
tartar9: which Christ? Jesus or the crucified theif da serial loser waste! you worship,forgiving my foot he couldn't forgive Adam biting an apple,he even passed the sin to his descendants
Huh! Ignoramus! Then, why do you suffer? Why do man die? I think the Strokes of hot canes you received on your head everymorning from Alfa Sule is disturbing you.... You guys have been killing Christians since time immemorial.... Muhammed even did his own according to the hadith(not me).... It's no longer news.... Incase I forget.... ISIS is recruiting.... The worse u can do is to join ISIS, Tallibans, Hezbollah, Al-Nusra, Al-Shababb e.t.c and start beheading, bombing Infidels(Christian ONLY) in the name of Jihad and chanting Allahu akbar....
