Then Nigeria is not the problem, it's your ppl

FOLYKAZE:
I hate it when people just blab without any figures and facts to support their senseless rants.

Election all over Nigeria has always been having a low turnout. That we know. That election in any state in Nigeria had rarely recorded anything above 50% turnout. The record is there for everyone to see. When you compare registered voters and accredited votes, you would understand that Nigeria Election records mostly below 50%. In Katsina, Kano and Kaduna where Buhari was massively voted for, the turnout there wasn't up to 50%. In Rivers where we had a slight above 50%, we agreed it was abruptly rigged in favor of politicians. While all these happened, Anambra is not exempted. It is even worst there.

In Anambra last Gubernatorial election, the number of registered voters is 1,770,125 while accredited votes recorded is 451,826. This means that 1,318,299 didn't vote. 14,555 was rejected. The population of Anambra compared to those who registered for 2013 election is more than 55%. The election turnout in 2013 is 25%. So what is all the fuse IPOB are talking about when we managed to get 25% in 2013?

It can become worse and more. OP should tell us what the percentage would be if Anambran are going to boycott the election. What percentage would turnout percentage be before we can accept election is boycotted? Anything above 20% is unacceptable because we have recorded this before. Anything between 20% - 25% is an complete fail because election turnout in Anambra is within that range. So what are we going to accept as a win for IPOB? 15% and below

This is the type of fact and figure we want the OP and IPOB members to present. In a state where the turnout is between 20% - 30% since inception, getting anything within that range means IPOB fails. Getting anything between 15% above is also a failure. But when we have 15% and below, we can assume that IPOB is powerful as been proclaimed. The whole nosie about Nsala or whatever is not an excuse. People have been boycotting election for many reasons without making a noise from it. If and if you can achieve 15% below, then you win but when IPOB cannot achieve this, then the populace will sse how useless the organization is.

pryme:
lol, look who is talking, another comic relief

Spylord48:
Funny thread as usual.
Boycotting Elections won't give we igbos Biafra instead it will always backfire.
All these are crude methods used in the past that won't even work in the present era. Un doesn't care, USA ,UK and others dont even care.
Just take a look at Catalonia crisis ,how everything unfolded and ended in a split seconds.
I have said it that the best way to push this course is to form a political party, elect Ipob inclined members into the State house and state house of assemblies,more still the Senate and house of Rep should be the target. Even if you don't vote for president it doesn't matter.
It is the house of reps and Senate that have the power to include Referendum into the constitution.
It will take time but if it is well planned before you know it this plan will work. That how Scotland, Catalonia and others did theirs.
There was a time Ekweremadu made mention of this but some people won't understand.
If igbos like, they should boycott elections.it won't make any difference but it will give these politicians opportunity to stop toiling with us.

Election boycotts won't send message to anyone.Nobody in international communities care. Syria, Myanmar crisis,Yemen crisis are all there yet the self acclaimed international community only bsrk without any actions.

pryme:
You think they will ever admit the mistake was from them? These Ppl will tell their new born kids of how it was Nigeria that messed things up for them.
They will play another victim card.

GoldNiagara:
The thing too pain you! lol

sarrki:
The only request of Biafra that Buhari hasn't granted is Secession. He gave Igbos senior ministers, paid Biafra Police, compensated Biafra Victims, Constructing Second Niger Bridge....Political Recognition, Massive Welfare and Infrastructures!!!

Can I go on??

Onijagidijagan:

Rotimik:
Have you noticed when someone comes from the east to the west for the first time. The look of suppressed anger or fear.

Over the years as a child, I've wondered why. Now I know. Anger at or fear of Yoruba people because of what they have been told.

They later get over it when they find out, we are not the dangerous people they perceive us to be when they were being fed lies about us back at home.

Rotimik:
Thank you for this post.

We Yorubas have been the most kind to the Igbos of all ethnic groups in Nigeria, yet they are always looking for ways to malign us and cast aspersions on our character before the world.

It was on record that ACB, the bank with which most Igbos save their money's was bankrupted upon their leaving for the east.

Also, it took the intervention of Awolowo for the 20 pounds per person to be approved by the then military government.

It is only in Nigeria that you hear of such thing happening, that a government pays the others side like that after a war.

One nairaland imbe cile spotted

GoldNiagara:
How about the hundreds of million Pounds stolen by Ojukwu at the central bank in Enugu, that is a Nigerian bank, but those bank deposits you guys always lie about were privately owned like Aribisalao rightly stated, so assuming but not conceding, that they had monies in the banks, is it the Nigerian government that should bear the responsibility for a private contract between a banker and its IBO customer.Nonsense

You guys are liars, ingrates and thieves.

zarakikenpa:
Lol at boycott elections... When parties involved are campaigning at full gear

Yyeske:
Our army messed up, this operation should be extended till December, let us rest from IPOB wahala

Yyeske:
These IPOB terrorists will not just rest, isn't it obvious to them already that their IPOB Biafra is already defeated or do they want Nnamdi kanu himself to come and tell them?

oladeebo:
These children were born into the extended family of Nigerian, what concern them?
I feel like exploded since yesterday.
