Zeedarh:
Speaking of violence like you're discussing comedy and its people like you dat would run away @ the slightest situation

Woman, go away!

This is a call on every Igbo man to wake up.

We must defend our survival in this country.
Let me put it this way, we fought a war to secede but they said 'No, Igbos must not leave, One Nigeria it must be'. We stayed, yet they deprive us federal institutions in our land, funds the fewest capital projects in our land, this invariably denied us the associated cash flow in our land. The money we circulate in our land is just from our sweat which is not much without federal investment. They deny us airport, seaport, and formulate policies to strangulate us in our land.

The money is not in our land, it is outside our land as a result of deliberate policies against us. Now, our brave brothers and sisters moved out to earn a living wherever they could find money in this country. Many succeed and return home to erect beautiful buildings and build industries we pride ourselves with just as those that remained behind in Igboland do same things.

This is One Nigeria they forced us to remain part of, now they say we are immigrants in the same country and they accommodate us in our own country. Now tell me, are we immigrants?
One can only be a citizen of one entity and that is Nigeria and no one is a citizen of Igboland, Yorubaland or Hausaland.
No one can accommodate a fellow citizen in his own country except for some weird thinking fellows who think it is possible.

We are traders and travellers. It is our major source of livelihood. If we remain naive and still continue to see ourselves as immigrants they call us in any part of this country, one day we will LOSE our source of livelihood.
You might feel it doesn't concern you now but it will tomorrow, I promise you. Again don't be naive in thinking that every Igbo should return home. Return home to what? To strangulated economic and over saturated business environment? You must be a FOOL if you think, without first wrestling the policy making control from others and dictate your own progress, that we would survive with us alone in Igboland.

Now is the time, the time that we should violently protect ourselves anywhere in this country. If we cower, they will drive us out while still maintaining the economic strangulation of our land.

Every Igboman should as a matter of urgency acquire guns and be ready. Ready to defend our source of livelihood in any part of this country. Those at home should be ready to move to any part of this country to fight alongside our brothers. This is our war of survival.
The hand writing is on the wall, you should see a glimpse of what could be in Lagos markets and other markets. This is deliberate, to eventually deny us our source of livelihood.

Don't think that Biafra is near, until it comes we must violently defend ourselves; violence is the only thing that Nigerians understand.

As you plan for the next building to build, plan on which gun to acquire next. If you've bought a gun already in your name, buy another in your wife's name and another in your sons' names. You will need those. Wherever you are, you must defend yourself.

May God Bless You All.

Many have supported Enyeama....Just saying he should move on and stop crying over spilled milk....why the curse? His fortune cane out this way...doesn't mean it will happen to everyone....Nexttime think before you place a curse...imagine everyone u quoted hurling curses on you...I won't do that ...will allow you to reflect on your deeds

It's not a curse, but an offer to you.
Say Amen to claim it and prove to all that Enyeama should not complain.

2n2k:
Another interesting fact is that, since the sharing reflect the contribution of each state to the oil revenue, it means Ondo state - the only oil producing state in the South West at N1.1billion produced/contributed almost double the total of all South East oil producing states which total N597million. This fact does not do well to the bragging rights of some SE people.

SE is not the same as Igboland

kendrick9:
Enyeama is looking for cheap sympathy.... yes,he lost his mother and we have sympathized with him but stop using to gain attension... we have all lost someone,so he ain't a special case.
He ought to have respected his boss
Edit--- there are people who don't even have the means to bury there loved ones,suffering frm poverty,no one to help them... where is the sympathaty for those people?
enyeama should count himself lucky... nonsense

cr7lomo:
This has confirmed what olise said about what happened .... People like enyeama can't just let it go with what he just posted... It shows that he was the one behind the whole fracas , e don do but u no free, u want everyone to hear what u wanna say. U have retired, guy move on and stop distracting the team with ur silly posts

olufemimajek:
Vincent Enyema has always been a trouble maker.... Did i hear him say he never had problem with other coaches...He should go abeg, his own is too much..

menix:
This goes a long way to prove what transpired that day..

Vincent like talk, because u have played demons nd fallen Angels don't give u the authority to challenge. Ur boss..

U have decided to resign, oya enjoy ur family nd stop heating up Nairaland..

adioolayi:
He should go in peace joor!
Does he want the whole Nation to be on their knees...abeg!
Let him know Super Eagles are moving on without him....and we are going to get a good replacement.... where is Ike Casilas in Spain squad today? He is not the first and won't be the last keeper to call it quit...we've had Alloy, Rufai, Ike and so on...Nigeria is Blessed Beyond hanging onto an individual

slapandfall:
All of una shouting 13yrs of SERVICE to the nation.. Shey dem no pay am money ni!

Una knw how much e collect!!!!. Like as if he was doing it for free.

Make Enyeama sharup.. we dey side am since now e wan dey misyarn.

E say goal against messi fine.. but who win the match!

Shey be him don serve for 13yrs.. only 1 nations cup.

Were him dey wen Pogba score am against france.

Make e beta rest before we change am for am.

May you be demoted from your position in wherever you are a day after burying a parent and asked not to complain or air your view.
Say Amen to that and I'll know Enyeama is crazy.

400billionman:
Are you a civil engineer ?

I know about roads

400billionman:
Is this type of reinforcement done with wire mesh ?

Yes it is.
That's how you reinforce all slabs.

funkiebully:
Oga, how did u arrive at the conclusion that the concretes are not reinforced? Before laying the reinforcement mesh won't u lay a base? Obviously the OP didn't snap that, but the pictures up there are just concrete base on which the mesh will rest before the covering concrete.

Okay oo, continue waiting for the mesh.
Can't you see the intended thickness of the road with the curb as a guide? There's no plans to reinforce it, trust me.

Concrete roads are very expensive that's why it's not so popular.

400billionman:
Concrete is better nah and your pix does not show that the concrete is reinforced. Obiagu1 respond.

Yes his pic shows finished reinforced concrete road.
The load distribution he showed was because the steel rods were there else the concrete will just breakup in pieces from the base and extends to the top.

funkiebully:
The concrete is just a base, the top will be ashphalted but not as thick as when laterite is used as base.
This is just like casting bridge with concrete and top it with asphalt, water permeability is reduced and long lasting road is what u get.

This is a solid work going on in ABA. I commend the governor

Concrete can't withstand tension so can't serve as the base. The base of all roads are under tension so concrete without reinforcement will just fail instantly.

Hmmm, is this how to construct concrete roads?
Don't they know that concrete expands and needs gaps in between to breathe?
Its supposed to be in slabs and are supposed to be reinforced with rods like house deckings.

This road will be all cracked up in 8 months time without any vehicle running over it or rain hitting it.

The silly governor is even creating a bigger mess when it's time to remove this crap!

Marcelinho:
Did anyone notice that Mikel rejected the captain amband instead giving it to Önazi

Oliseh broke the unwritten code in the Super Eagles.
The longest serving and/or the most capped players are always named captains.

Ideally, Enyeama was supposed to be captain.
Mikel 1st vice captain
Musa 2nd vice captain.
but oliseh ignored Mikel.

It was not only Enyeama that was demoted, Mikel was demoted as well.

This is not good for team harmony.

Oliseh will fail as a coach.

Sunday Oliseh must be a saddist!

This is the worst thing to happen to anyone in the Super Eagles.
How can a 'coach' fire his captain just after the captain was still grieving the loss of his mother?
This is so insensitive. How could one do that without according the captain the privilege of knowing before everyone else that he was going to be demoted?

God I just can't believe this.

Oliseh just sowed the seed of discord in the Super Eagles. Not only did he humiliated his captain, he also bypassed the supposed successor to the captainship which is John Mikel Obi.

This has being our tradition which Oliseh himself benefited from. The longest serving is always the captain.

proxillin:
Just the way Igbo come to Lagos to make money and go back to their village at chrismas to spend everything. Petty business owners.

Delusional.

So the money that buys up Lagos comes from where?

coolitempa:
Hehehehehehe.....see frustration....e pain am......

Pain me? How?
When I've already bought a property from a poor Yoruba man in Lagos and he will soon waste the whole money performing one owambe to another. Useless spendthrifts!

It is our mission, just letting you know what's going on and let you die slowly of frustration from your failure to change the course of events in Lagos.

It's fun really to watch you people kick and scream helplessly.

chuna1985:
Lagos will be a colony of biafra, or haven't u noticed whats happening Igbos are the most populated tribe in Lagos. We will take Lagos.

It is a mission that must be accomplished.

zendy:
Im not sure Internet has reached the North yet and even if it has, I'm not sure they would know how to use it. I hope the demolition of Ladipo might galvanise some of my Igbo brothers to head back home with their investment. Nnewi needs them. I want us all to one day leave Lagos for the Yorubas, if they are eating it let them eat it.......... But not until we get Biafra

No Igbo man will leave Lagos, NEVER!
Rather more young Igbos will move to Lagos.

Let Lagos Igbos run their affairs there, grow, multiply and become more successful.
Let South East Igbos run their affairs in the SE, we are more than enough to develop SE.

We MUST yield no ground in Nigeria.

What Yoruba goons don't know is that one can't start trading with an empty pocket. You need to have money!

Destroy it today, rebuild it tomorrow, no one would be given a stall for free! You have to pay millions.

Ask First Bank and Tejuosho developers why the market still remains desolate.

Money controls a city, if you have money, you control it.
Lazy Yoruba think government is a charity organisation.

Igbos will determine which market is functional when rebuilt. Igbos will keep buying up Lagos, a seller must sell to the highest bidder no matter how racist he is, that's a natural law.

By 2050, Lagos will be Igbo.
One Nigeria you want, one Nigeria you shall get!

This is the more reason the Igbo must tactically or violently take over Lagos.
Lagos Must Fall.

We'll see who will laugh last.

@ OP

Have you ever heard of a poor man that was 'assassinated'?

Go figure that out.

MizMyColi:
I thank you for this article.
This pretty much explains my position.

Let it be known.

Buhari and the APC are hypocrites.
Quote me anywhere.

Saraki, I have no pity for.
Either ways....witch-hunting or vampire hunting, his sins have caught up with him.

One by one....the household of the wicked shall surely crumble.
The motion has been set in place.

I'll say someone finally shed his naivety.

The vultures have been armed and they are hovering over.

TonyeBarcanista:
@Mizmycoli
I will appreciate if you refrain from discussing me with that dude. I appreciate your intervention a lot. Please, rest it!
My position on issues may or may not be in tandem with everybody but it is mine. Thanks

Truth hurts!

MizMyColi:
I understand your angst.
I would be lying if I said I don't.
The person in question is not perfect, but it doesn't take much to understand and accept him for who he is, flaws and all.

What I'm pleading for is that you should show grace...these are the kind of issues discussed in private...lest the political wolves capitalise on such.

I am opportune to be close to Barca and I can boldly tell you that he remains committed to the PDP rebirth cause.
His principles are actually the cause of this misunderstanding.

I'm in politics to change things and not to protect thieves
If he's guilty of robbing his state, he shd pay for it
If he's innocent, he'll be vindicated

^^This was his words in a private convo when I requested him to do a write up on the witch-hunt trailing Akpabio.

He might have made mistakes in the past which he may or may not realize, but I know he's a good person.
That's enough reason for you, I and every other comrade to stay true to him.

If that quote came from him, I'm sorry but he doesn't belong to the PDP where the other side is using public institutions to witch-hunt his side; he is infact a NEUTRAL or rather an INDEPENDENT!
Let him accept that and not deceive the PDP that he is one of them.

Political naivety has no place in a political party, you have to tag along or get out.
The opponent is so insensible and so vicious that people like Barcanista and Goodluck Jonathan (May God punish Obasanjo for imposing him on the PDP) have no place in it.

Read your environment before you start to sound sensible.
If he cannot write something about Akpabio, sorry he should not write anything about the Senate President if he is PDP. He is arming the other side.

He doesn't know the game!

I rest my case.

MizMyColi:
Bros, please let Barca be. Please.
Before we go all ballistic on one another, please ask whether or not your words are intended to cause him to be better and inspired (assuming he is the kind of person you are painting him as).

I don't like all this type of open judgement, especially when it comes from one of our own to another of our own.

Pain inflicted on others is pain inflicted on self, whether we realize or not.
Please we can do better.

Thanks for your post.
The truth is that I really don't know where he stands. Fact!

If he wants to become a neutral commentator, fine but not today APC, tomorrow PDP, next tomorrow Independent.

Truth is, if he is wise and clever enough, he should put his sanity in his pocket and seal his lips if his write-ups will damage and not favour his side, until insane APC clowns get a little sanity in their heads and see Tinubu as a criminal, Fashola as worse than T.O Orji and agree that Buhari broke the law by running for president without a certificate.

If his new stance now is neutrality, fine and let it remain as such, let him develop a principle!

The same political uprightness and naivety was what made GEJ to almost damage the PDP while trying to be sane in an insane and vicious political environment.

@ TonyeBarcanista

I don't know why you irritate me. I know when you joined NL as Barcanista if you are the same person.

My opinion about you is that of a snake, a turncoat, backstaber, no morales, no principles, no conviction, no direction and no stance; forever meandering from one sphere of events, opinion, power in place etc. to another.
You are worse than a Yoruba man!

I thought you quit! Why are you here?
Still looking for a political appointment?

You'll never be like Beaf!
He was a man of principle and a legend on NL.

Oh, so tying 2 wrappers and having 4 market days is what qualifies another ethnic group to be annexed into the map of Biafra! Can you see how some people reason blindly??

God forbid bad thing! Tufiakwa! The Igala and Idoma will never be part of such folly. Go and get your Biafra by whatever means, but leave the Igala and Idoma out of your territorial expansion, biko nu.

During the civil war of 1967 - 1970, the rank and file of the federal side that pummelled Biafran soldiers into submission, were drawn predominantly from the middle belt, among the Igala, Idoma, Tiv, Tarok, Gbagyi, Birom, Bassa, Angula, Jukun, Zango-Kataf etc, followed by the Kanuri, Fulani, Hausa, Bachama and other ethnic groups from the far north. As we speak, the Igala people of Odekpe have been dealing with Aguleri people at the Anambra border over OPL 915, that runs through Kogi, Anambra and Edo states.

So please remove the Igala and Idoma from your calculations. Seek this Biafra on your own, without dragging anyone else into it!

@LastProphet, see how they have arrogantly attached your people to the map of Biafra!

@Cheruv, did you not say Biafra was for the SS Igbo and SE Igbo only, what is Igala and idoma doing inside your map??!

No one is annexing anyone. There will be referendum of course. We simply displayed the intended geographical extent of Biafra.

The 2 piece wrappers, 4 market days and contiguity with the Igbo boundary are what distinguish Biafrans from the rest of Nigerians.
We all have closely related cultures.

I'll add that of all the non-Igbo Biafrans, Igala and Idoma are the closest related to the Igbo by blood. We can't leave them behind unless they opt out. What they did in the past during the war is inconsequential here. Many people were not educated then to understand fully what was going on.

pazienza:
Nice speech by Kanu Nnamdi. I am really impressed, though at this stage I have learnt to expect nothing less from Kanu Nnamdi.

But I find it strange his Inclusion of Igalas in Kogi and the Idomas in Benue in the Biafran project.
The Igalas in Anambra are christians and over the centuries have become part of the Igbo culture, but the Igalas in Kogi represents an entirely new entity, and worst still, a good number of them are Muslims, admitting them into Biafra will mean the inclusion of Islam into the Biafran entity, are we ready for such?

The Idomas have good rapport with the Igbos in the Enugu and Ebonyi axis, and they even co exist with some Indigenous Igbo communities in Benue state, and they are not Muslims, their case is positive, provided a referendum be conducted there, to determine the people wish.

He gave his reasons.
Biafrans are republicans and have no monarchy.
In addition, our women tie 2 piece wrappers and we all have 4 market days.
If you noticed, every ethnic group that have related with the Igbo and have an immediate boundary with the Igbo is included except the Edo.

The reason for Edo exclusion is because they have a monarch. I think he said some time ago that unless the powers of Oba of Benin is diminished, Edo would not be part of Biafra.

So in summary, Biafra 2.0 is Igbo and all Igbo neighbours minus Edo.
