HopeAtHand post=34270199]You have not proved anything..Your people only claimed to be militants to collect amnesty money.

You are only confusing yourself to think AkwaIbom people played any part in the Niger Delta struggle..Akwa Ibom is not evn in Niger delta per se..

Uyo that i lived in and people were constantly asking me for stories about militancy.. do you know how and what led to the founding of NDPVF OR NDPSF..or you want to affiliate..how many of your people went overseas on amnesty..

Or Is it Icelandos, Greenlanders or what..Under which marine??..guy get lost..u are late to the party, so trying to meet up is expected.[/s]Now i know how u.seless you are.Keep Jumping ship.Ebot.
You are in Uyo they told you they dont know what is militancy.Same way your inconsequential Ikwerre-unam hides under "Rivers state" to claim militancy,while you cant provide facts and figures to that effect.Am speaking from experience,and not hear-say like you,and i have got nothing to prove to an inconsequential fellow like you.
Even uptill now,we still carries out pseudo-militancy.we block QIT at will.Get lost.Mtchww.Come to Ibeno,ask of Ekpe-Iwuochang.

A right thinking man should undastand the politics of Nigeria. I'm sure the reason those people were present in Aba today was because GEJ lost and the majority of the electorates rejected him at the polls because he failed to perform up to their expectation. Look, Nigeria cannot make any progress if we continue on ethnic or tribal sentiment. I'm sure the electorates will do so to Buhari if he also fails. But the SE is trying capitalising on Gej loss to drag SS to Biafra.

[/s] Is their any specific date/month/year/season/period/era/event,or whatever,kept for the oppressed,to demand for freedom?.
You and your slave master has raped us,and tag one of us 'clueless/fish brain'.
How do you justify the fact that,North controls 80% of the oil wells,while we that owns it,and suffers the outcome of both environmental degradations and low life expectancy,has nothing to show for it?.
How do justify the fact that the operational base of ExxonMobil is here in my local government,but its headquarter is hijacked and kept in Lagos,and youths begs job,but everyday,new faces storms QlT,from mostly southwest?.
All you are crying all over here,is to protect your oil interest,not because you over love the region.Just the way you and your slave masters up north,blackmailed Jonathan out of office.

lower Niger which may be
the basis of the federating
constitution for the ethnic
nationalities of the
territory.
3. The assembly mandated
the conduct of a
referendum of the lower
Niger as with the case in
Scotland. Whether we
want to continue living
together in the geographic
expression called Nigeria.
4. The assembly called for
a referendum for the
determination of how we
want to relate with one
another.
5. In order to forestall the
loss of the properties of
the peoples of the lower
Niger as was the case in
1970 the Assembly
mandated the setting up
of an Asset Protection and
Guarantee Scheme to
protect the Assets and
Interests of the peoples of
the lower Niger
6. The Assembly mandated
the setting up of an all-

7. The Assembly
encouraged the convening

There is something about latecomers to a party esp gatecrashers...they tend to want to make up for lost time.

You are just a reflection of Akwa Ibom..your mentality, level of enlightenment and even your moniker NDPVF speaks of someone who missed the show at its best and wants to force a repeat performance..Bad news is, the aristes save for one are fed up already.

Where were the Akwa Ibomites when Rivers, Bayelsa, Delta indigenes committed themselves to arm struggle for the Niger Delta cause..You can now affiliate and start talking nonesense.


Please, Ikwerre people are not interested in your Whatever..We need to partner with the FG to make Port Harcourt a better place for Us the Indigenes and other dwellers...So now you know the We whenever you see it.

[/s]As expected,you av' jumped ship.You have diverted to ND Arm struggle,which am proud to say i was part of.(hey,i av' got nothing to prove to a toddler like you).For you to say we didnt partake in that worthy course,is crass stup!dity.

We are talking of a united front to achieve either true federalism,or an outright division.He cant tell me where where to belong.If my people are to go with Biafra,should Nigeria divide,it must be negotiated,and true federalism/resource control stamped and endorsed on our life-wire.

I was expecting you to prove to me that you are speaking for us all.BTW,you are sounding yorubbish.which tribe are you from?.

I understand your pain, you are yet to recover from the shock of Gej's loss.
I maintain my stand, five eastern states with scanty oil reserve can not form a country! You will soon realise this.

Very well, you can agitate for Biafra but don't ever think we the south south will join you people.
I can't imagine having anything to do with Igbos.

Oxford dictionary defines Marginalization as treatment of (a person, group, or concept) as insignificant or peripheral:
The South southern Niger-Delta states consists of Rivers State (5,185,400) Delta State (4,098,391) Akwa Ibom State (3,920,208) Cross River State (2,888,966) Bayelsa State (1,703,358) Edo State (3,218,332) and a collective populations of 21, 014, 655.(http://www.informationng.com/2009/04/nigerian-states-by-population.html)
The states; Akwa ibom (135. 84bn), Rivers (99.67bn), Delta (95. 77), Bayelsa (82. 04bn) Edo (30. 27bn) Cross river (26. 50bn) collectively receives a whopping allocation of N470. 09bn from the Federal Government between January- June 2014. (Many thanks to 13% oil derivation formula).
The region has 2 special ministries; Ministry of Niger-Delta Affairs and Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC specifically setup to alienate the suffering of the people of the region. Also, it was reported that the amnesty programme which has been engaged in the training of youths of the region at various institutes in Ghana, South Africa, the Philippines, Russia, Ukraine and India, amongst others, has gulped $1 billion since 2009. The amnesty programme should be a holistic plan to be vigorously pursued to provide the Niger Delta region a face-lift and empower the people, especially in view of the failure of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) and the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs to justify their existence.(http://dailyindependentnig.com/2013/05/niger-delta-amnesty-programme-and-fgs-1b expenditure/)
Comparatively, the North West, the alleged region marginalizing the other and most populous region of the country with a population of 35, 786, 944 receives an allocation of N255.98bn from the Federal government within the same duration. (https://www.nairaland.com/2244965/revenue-allocation-states-nigeria-fg).
Conclusively, the “marginalized” Niger-Deltans has a per capita allocation of N22, 408. 17, while the ALLEGED marginalizer, the North West has a per capita allocation of N7, 152. 89. A paltry 32% of per capita allocation of the “marginalized” Niger-Deltans. The Niger Delta deservedly merited the whopping allocation allotted to the region for being the region where the largest revenue of the country is being generated. But they are no way MARGINALIZED, in fact the TWIST is, they are just an OLIVER.

First Petition: Calling For The Licenses of All Oil Marketers To Be Withdrawn

Following the revelation by the Federal Government that Oil Marketers in the country intentionally pulled out from performing their obligations to supply petrol to the nation as a way of blackmailing the FG into paying for unverified subsidy claims, I wish to call on the government of President Muhammadu Buhari to consider as a matter of urgency, a move to make alternative arrangements for the import of petroleum products into the country, and subsequently withdraw all import licenses issued to these oil marketing companies.

This call has become necessary as Nigerians do not deserve the pains unjustly inflicted on them by these oil marketing firms who sabotaged the whole nation because of issues which were not the fault of the Federal government. The outgoing government, for reasons best known to it, refused to investigate this cartel and end the fraudulent system that has cost Nigerians trillions within a short period of time, however, a new dawn has begun and in the interest of the welfare of Nigerians, I urge our new president, Muhammadu Buhari (GCFR) to do the needful and end this fraud of a system.

I call on the good people of Nigeria to join me and keep this voice stronger in the interest of the nation. Power belongs to us and we must use it to act and fight back injustice.

God Bless Nigeria.

Are you not one of those idiats that occupied Southwest because of subsidy?.

HopeAtHand:
When you have showed the Hausas that by unifying the govt, he can control the entire country, you want him to revert back to a system that is tailored for easy secession.

You have given him the grip and he has added Federal Character to further tighten it.

Your people the Igbos are collectively disorganised..No united front, no sense of purpose.You want biafra, and, if given the opportunity you will produce Nigerias president.

Igbos wilfully spread investments across the whole country and Igbos are screaming they want to leave the country..Igbos say one thing, while their actions speak another..Igbos should be strategic

Pazienza, so u also doubt Abagworo being igbo because he is truthful and says it as it is...Pazienza who/what is your definition of an Igboman, someone who sees the truth and covers it..is dat it? Pazienza i make,bold to,say you are parr of the problems the Igbos have.SMH

[/s]Exactly.I was expecting you to tag me Igbo,because am not as delussional as you are.
You running around the question is very childish.
I stated earlier,which is obvious,that;
1.After the coup and counter coup,it was obvious that Federalism will only fasten Nigerian death,and Ironsi mulled a qausi unitary government,to save the situation(which was meant to be a temporary solution pending when normalcy returns.just like government declaring state of emergency),and you tagged such a patriotic act,a ploy to 'play fast one' on the rest of us,just as you have tagged me Igbo,for choosing to critically analyse issues before commenting.
2.From that time till now,successive government has come and gone,and maintained that,which was mean to be a temporary solution to the problem then,which you tagged 'to play fast one' on us.That means,all the previous administrations,are guilty of what you paint ironsi and his people.
3.Again,your assertion of fiscal federalism being a 'system tailored for easy secession',which in reality,is the most workable system of Government for multi ethnic countries like Nigeria,shows you are neither here nor there,because you also condemed unitary.Therefore,you are way too unlearned and mentally beclouded to quote/argue with me.

no ss man can ever give any igbo man 50% of d support we gave GEJ, can't u see it, nowadays they re indirectly telling us that they are on there own.

pazienza:
You are evil

What exactly was GEJ romance with Ndiigbo? What exactly did GEJ do for Ndiigbo that he didnt do for the rest of the country two times more?

Was it GEJ fault that Ndiigbo were free minded and non tribalist and decided to show appreciation for the little GEJ did for us, knowing fully well that the past Nigerian leaders did next to nothing for us.

You would have Ndiigbo join the Arewa-Odua gang up and pull GEJ down for no reason at all, except for his place of origin, or you would have GEJ treat Ndiigbo unfairly with injustice like the previous Nigerian leaders just to satiate your Igbophobia?

So, we would have helped GEJ cause by not supporting him? So in Your deeply Igbophobic mind, Igbo support led to GEJ loss, he would have won if the Igbo joined the Arewa-Odua gang up? You expect the SS to hate Ndigbo in future for supporting GEJ, while loving the Arewa-Odua for pulling him down? You just took Igbophobia to a new level, and you even have the hypocritical mind, for you say God bless Igboland, while you seek to make Ndiigbo the scape goat of GEJ loss at the same time.

You are evil and need to change.

May God help you.

Classic.
@cancelled,God has business with people of such manner.

OkutaNla:
If we are to follow your line of thought (using your Liechtenstein analogy), are you suggesting that Nigeria should rather split into 250 different countries? Considering that it's recognized to have about that many different ethnicities? Smh

And what is wrong if that happens?.why are you scared?.provided it kills distrust and ensures peace,it must be encouraged.my state alone,is big enough to be a country.

HopeAtHand:
Sharap.

On the surface, Ironsi unified the system of govt to save the nation from collapsimg while the veiled reason was to ensure that he controlled the whole country.

Igbos tried to play fast on the other two tribes only to be out-manoeuvred by the 'mumu' Hausaman who seized power and used the unitary system to theor advantage.

Say the truth always, please.

you dont get it do you?.I ask you again,lets assume Ironsi brought unitary system.between the period under review,till now,its over three decades,and within this three decades,people has presided over the nation.Why havent they returned the nation to federating units.Or is your assertion of Ironsi and his people trying to 'play fast on us',applicable to those people.

Thats why i said your problem is lack of the ability to reason on your own.If Ironsi brought unitary government to salvage the situation at that time,why havent successive governments returned the country back to fiscal federalism?.At Least its more than three decades that Ironsi died.The unitary system of government he brought then was for save Nigeria from collapsing,due to the challenge the country was facing that time.it wasnt meant to be for ever.why havent the administrations after him return the country back to federating unites.

HopeAtHand:
Before the 1967 coup, Nigeria ran a system where each region were in control of its resources to a reasonable extent.The Igbo young gunz killed the parliamentary system and Ironsi, yet anoda Igbo, created this unified Federal system.

Now, the system which the Igbos unwittingly foisted on Nigeria is what, after 30yrs, has taken us to the roundtable to discuss, with no clear headway.

You see exactly what that rash action has brought to the people of old eastern region...That is why u shouldn't be too fast.

The igbos should atleast try to remedy the situation and not to chicken out of the federation because they is being bullied by their mates.

Looool@zoological country..well, ex-presido Jonathan was a zoologisf and his government was an Igbo government.

You would not beleive it...I have this "friend"although very much older than I am,from the SS,he supports the Igbos in anything and everything but as much as he hates what is going on in Nigeria,[u]he said no sane SS mine would want to be caught in the same nation with the Igbos-in his words,[/u]if you give an Igboman...1..he would eventually take 2,3,4,5 and finally try to take everything...

@the boldened,And the person also told you he is the spokesperson of our region.I hate it when people decides to reason like goats.BTW,we are in a world that on its own,is quite competitive.If you decides to be mentally and physically lazy,the person next to you will take it all.its not greediness,its what a competitive society offers.
