Things are really falling apart much more now than at the time Achebe wrote his book.
But true Christianity is not the problem.
Religion is a major part of the problem

I can bet any amount that Nigeria would never make progress and the indices are there. You know but i guess you just want to be optimistic. I am a realist and a strong pragmatic person. With all the available info about Nigeria it won't work .

Just take a look at most developed and wealthy nations on Earth, US, UK, Japan, China, Russia, Canada, Germany and the rest are mostly monolingual or there's one two or three dialects which everyone understands. Does that mean that a large portion of their problems has been cut off?

Why didn't they do the same in Colonial Africa, if it could work for them or where they experimenting or am i wrong??
there is a reason for the story in the bible about the tower of babel. when they had similar language ,they were able to achieve a lot. these white men knew the potentials in the south that is why they had to check mate us with the uneducated north. cry

GidiWoodsMan:
Well it's the first time am hearing this from an Ibo man. We seem to agree on the finer points of tradition here, because what that Saheed Olamilekan has done out there in Ireland is completely alien to Yoruba culture, too.
if you asked they would have told you. its just general Knowledge. every market dominated by Igbos usually have someone who they designate as head of that place to mediate and talk with the host community. they are just representatives. we also have eze ndigbo in china and some other countries outside Nigeria. why most Igbos dont even bother is because they have not claimed any royalty or start making decisions on behalf of a particular community or claiming what they are not. then they would be checkmated accordingly. They dont hold any traditional office whatsoever.

Oh yeah? That's why they call themselves 'royal majesty' and make people bow down to them? Is that why they wear that clumsy traditional regalia too?

Come with facts, don't come with propaganda & barefaced lies to counter what we see with our own eyes, please
i just told you what is obtainable. if you like believe.They are not recognized in Igbo land. if they like let them wear Barcelona Jersey thats their business. if as an Igbo man i am telling you whats obtainable in my domain and you call them lies then i am so sorry for you. you are just gullible. You people just come up and start creating illusions from the figment of your imaginations. thats how your people say we wake our parents with sliding tackle. things like these are not supposed to be heard from people who claim to be educated.

GidiWoodsMan:
This is nonsense. That bleached-out ass-hole calls himself a 'royal majesty', royal fatber of all Yoruba descendants in Ireland. On what authority has he become an 'oba alade'? Yoruba people have finally caught that bug from the Ibos, going around installing themselves as sovereign monarchs in other people's land.

Dude is probably an internet fraudster who cashed out big and now doesn't know what to do with the money, he's obviously jobless though. I pity those gullible whites following them around, those guys are obviously all crooks and dishonest men.
dude,stop this ignorance. Eze ndi Igbo is just a leader of the Igbos in a particular area or locality. It has nothing to do with culture or tradition. they are not even recognized in Igbo land. Stop spreading false information on the internet before someone who doesn't know would take your word as fact. This has been explained several times over.

pazienza:
Nwanne, the Igbo political class/Jobbers will never subscribe to Biafra.
They have a life time of lavish political contracts, retirement benefits, etc to live for in Nigeria.
They have no shame and will not mind becoming third class citizens in Nigeria, so long as their masters give them the key to SE share of the national cake to continue feeding fat off.

Ndiigbo will not be given 2023 presidential ticket By APC or PDP, and I can assure you that nothing will happen.

The Biafran project is a marathon. The Igbo commoners charting it will do well not to allow Nigerian politicians of Igbo extraction, who represent the greatest enemies of Biafra today, to use it as pawn in their political games in Nigeria.


I fully maintain that we should stick to our current pace, and not let the elites who only see the agitation as a means of threat to force their fellow Nigerians to cut a bigger size of the national cake to them, hijack it, only to abandon us when they get settled by their fellow Nigerians, with thousands of us dying again. The more powerless and humiliated in the Nigerian political arrangement the Igbo political jobbers become, the better for the Igbo commoners and our Biafran cause- go figure.
exactly my view. I wonder why many Igbos are so deluded.

Politics › Re: Nigeria Approves $2 Billion Bakassi Deep Seaport by meccuno: 8:46pm On Oct 09, 2019
[s]
BrandSpurNG:
The Federal Government of Nigeria has approved the construction of Bakassi Deep Seaport which is currently ongoing. Cross River State Governor, Prof. Ben Ayade announced the report and said that the approval has paved way to launch the port on a commercial scale.

“We have got the official approval for the Bakassi Deep Sea Port Outline Business Case which means that the Nigerian government has now officially recognized the Bakassi Deep Sea Port and has given us the impetus to go for the full business case,” stated Prof. Ben Ayade.

Bakassi Deep Seaport

The Bakassi Deep Seaport is to become the second trade port in Nigeria, after the Apapa port and would be the maritime gateway for the country’s landlocked northeast. This is because the rest of the ports are oil terminals.

The project development is supported by the interim transaction advisors, The Infrastructure Bank, and China Harbour. The project entails an evacuation corridor and a six-lane highway linking the port with the north. The proposed six-lane highway spans 162 miles across the length of the geographical space of the state from Bakassi in the South up to Northern part of the state which borders with Benue state in North Central Nigeria.

The 20-metre-deep harbour will cost approximately US $800 million and will be built via a public-private partnership (PPP). Upon completion, the Bakassi port will reduce congestion faced in Lagos ports and the Onne West Africa Container Terminal in Rivers State. It will also aid in the transportation of farm produce from the north to other parts of the country.
“The outline business case proposed a 20-metre-deep harbour for transnational shipping, making it “the deepest seaport in Africa,” said Governor Ayade.

Politics › Re: The “starboy”, The Sacrificial Lamb By Abdullateef Ishowo by meccuno: 8:45pm On Oct 09, 2019
MelesZenawi:
According to the Urban Dictionary, the term “starboy” refers to a man who enjoys the company of more than one woman at a time. By implication, a star boy is a womanizer, a philanderer, a man who has sex with many women. However, in the present Nigerian political context, the term “starboy” has been coined to refer to a popular government official, the Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Professor Yemi Osinbajo.


Imagine definition ascribed to a pastor.

KEVIND:
Alhaji Samaila Muhammed Mera, the Emir of Argungu, has warned that Nigeria risks another devastating civil war if the calls for the country’s break up are not halted.

The first class monarch and foremost traditional ruler said the nation is better off as one entity.

The monarch pointed out that if Nigeria was separated today, each of these ethnic groups would start rising against each other, waging supremacy war and this would lead to another civil war.

He said, “I am not a constitutional lawyer or politician. Whatever restructuring would take place in this country, my sincere advice is that we are better off to remain one Nigeria than divided into pieces,” he was quoted by Sun.

“I keep on telling my friends in the South-East, South-South regions of Nigeria that it will be a sad day for me whenever any one of them would have to collect visa before they could visit me. There is strength in number, unity.

“We are over 150 million now in term of our population and there was a forecast that before end of this century, Nigeria’s population would exceed 300 million making us the most populous nation behind China and Indian.

“If you look around the world today, the most successful nations are those with highest population. Like I said, our problem is that we are not patient with our leaders.

“Just imagine, if Igbo break away, how many land space do they have? The same thing with Yoruba, the same thing with us in the Northern region.

“Every part of this country has something to offer to other regions. We are better the way we are now. Whatever our grievances are, let us embrace dialogue and address our differences.

“Whenever I hear our people are agitating for Biafra here, another region calling for break up, I feel sad.

“We must not forget what happened to Albania, Yugoslavia, and others when they separated into seven nations.

“Their country was the most vibrant nation in Europe in term of economy. But today, they are small nations with inadequate resources to cater for their citizens.

“This should be a big lesson to us. If we break up, all of us would suffer for it, because we have many ethnic groups and tribes across the country.

“If we were separated today, each of these ethnic groups would start rising against each other, waging supremacy war.

“May God forbid, that would be the beginning of civil war. Instead, we should continue to pray for our leaders, unite for the country’s survival and development.

“We need to fully tap our potential. We were made to understand that Zamfara state is the richest state in Nigeria in term of gold deposits.

“Have we fully utilized this potential? Also Kebbi state is blessed with gold and other mineral resources.

“In fact, each state across Nigeria has two or more natural resources that could change the economy of this country for better. We were also told that there are large deposits of gas in the Northeast.

“Let us bring all these potentials out, utilise them and I am optimistic that all these threats of breaking away, restructuring and others would be history in our country.”
