Stop deceiving your self.

Oil runs Nigeria's economy. Oil feeds Nigeria.

imohchard:
am from akwa ibom.. But you seriously have to reconsider your statement... Since them born you list the benefit of oil that you have enjoyed.
In actual sense, its the north that actually feed poor masses like me and you..
I eat food everyday.. Food produced in the north...
Niger delta oil only feeds the rich politheafs and their children.... Thank God for the north.atleast we no dae import garri and tomatoe and meat

Not just the governors, their people.

They love this thing more than the rightful owners. At times I wish we could just soak them in this oil.

Let's have peace.

Leeches.

When governors from the oil producing states that feed the nation are working. One lazy mallam from Borno is busy looking for free money coded as amnesty to give to his kin.

God forbid

That's the problem. The resources do not belong to the Nigerian state.

They belong to the rightful owners. Nobody carried our people along when the false amalgam called Nigeria was created. And nobody carried us along when they started allocating oil blocs to strangers.

Well, just before you hang me, what do you think will be the result of a U.N backed referendum to determine if the people of the SE and SS want to remain with Nigeria?

Your guess is as good as mine.

b3llo:
hmmm... The resources belong to The Nigerian States, why should it be left for a region to control it?

Please what is wrong with self-actualization?

Apart from the loss of access to free oil money, what else does the North and SW stand to lose when Nigeria is no more. There is no where in the constitution that says that the various tribes are forbidden to leave Nigeria.

Abeg let's stop making a big deal out of this stuff and be done with it already.

what surprise most is that this flag has gone beyond Nigeria govt imagination. there is a web site (DUDU RADIO) I usually visit as at 2006 whenever am board, to listing some cool music to surprise this year. I long on to the same site, what I found there was Biafran Flag I was like what the hell is this flag doing here? I kept mute for a while that these people really mean business to actualize their dreams land.
note that DUDU RADIO is meant for Nigeria and Nigerian ............ my Question is, ''what is Biafra Flag doing there? who put this Flag there? .............. does it mean that UN has pass the resolution Bill? Nigeria government must act fast to curtain this move before we fell into another kasala.

Although to say the fact ever since I have no the right hand from the left hand I think the way Nigeria government is marginalize our Igbo brother is unfair , when we are all southing for one Nigeria I think the government need to treat every ethnic equality in terms of resources distribution and government position. Nigeria government must forget the past and let think of future, Igbo group must be carry along in Nigeria politics and they should be given chance to contribute to Nigeria government maybe is then Nigeria problem we solve.
that is my own personal opinion mind if you are to quote me please don't mention GEJ in this matter as he is from Ijaw tribes

I am sure your are from the southwest, the seat of 'wisdom'. When we begin to have our crises we will call on US, UK and your people to mediate. Till then please mind your business.

Ok I guess I used the wrong words, but your estimate is wrong too. yes, many south easterners would be happy in their own country, but they know this may end in another violence, both MASSOB and IPOB are violent activists and this not what the people want. On another note, up to 30% or more of south easterners live outside the south east, do you think they want to be displaced from their jobs and investments again?? You might argue that it's not a must to be back home, but let's be realistic, except they change their names overnight, they cannot be tolerated in Nigeria where everyone's origin is known by their last name, very different from an IGBO man living in Cotonou or Ghana or anywhere else abroad where they do not understand the difference between IGBO, Hausa and Yoruba. And Why do I think it will end in violence?
1. Because there will be competing interests. Trust me bro, if Biafra has any chance of being successful, you will see so many interest groups carry arms to become relevant, did you carefully follow the events of the governorship election where most groups rejected their loss? That's how it will be, only that this time, every group will be fighting with arms, that's what is happening in countries like Syria. It will no longer be a United force, greed will be the order of the day
2. South east would definitely want to take the Niger Delta along with it. This will bring back the memories of war again, why? Many Niger Deltans may not want an IGBO domination, secondly, Nigeria doesn't want to lose its oil source of revenue. They would easily oblige or twist the Niger Deltans against the south east again because Igbos are proud people and would rather influence or force the Region into the map rather than beg or intice, this is a tool that Nigeria will easily against them. It's like a beautiful bride, you have to beg to marry her, if you try to show superiority or tell her she's making a mistake and will end up regretting marrying the other man, rather than luring her with gifts and making her feel important, you lose her, even if you feel you're the best man.

Niger Delta is our home, from where we service Nigeria's economy.

If we can have 100% resource control and still leave peacefully, no wahala.

Otherwise, everyman for himself.

b3llo:
hmmm... Why do some people take pleasure in causing pains to others May God have mercy on them. Nigeria is our home, let's build it together and not destroy it.

If Buhari thinks its not his business because he is in the safety of Aso Rock then he is making a grievous mistake.

This man has lost touch with the reality.

Going by their renewed strength I see Boko Haram striking anywhere they have wish including Abuja. Buhari your house is on fire act before it destroys you.

Rumour mills

See haters celebrating.

These are the people that will cry blood when the oil producing areas leave Nigeria.

Parasites

I am beginning to realise that Buhari is not in charge.

2015 is very pregnant.

ISIS is surely behind these people.

I took my time to watch some ISIS videos and concluded that it's only a matter of time before we begin to see the worst of Boko Haram.

May God remember his people.

Yeye dey smell.

Men see roll call - I must say those guys are sophisticated.

Thank you.

Mumu oponu oshi. Where is ur brain?

We have substituted Cluelessness with Foolishness.

Does that mean we are fools? Or have we been Fooled?

.

All the North ever wanted was to get back in power and stop the revocation of oil licences. And their slaves played to the drum beat.

The single most reasonable post in this topic.

My brother, some people will have sleeplessness night with this your suggestion.

God give Wike and other SS and SE governors the strength, wisdom and fortitude to indigenize the oil companies.

Tell Chevron to move their headquarters from Lagos to Port Harcourt.

ONE WONDERS WHAT THEY ARE DOING IN LAGOS

Image laundering at its best.

It's a known method for governments that are unpopular. If you had tried calling in you would have received a busy signal.

APC scamming Nigerians with propaganda since eternity.

OP thanks for this exposé.

I used to think those were random pics on the naira. I know better now.

Waoh.

Sorry to say this. Why are we calling Rochas here?

I don't like APC but I must criticise objectively.

OP if you are really concerned about this you would have taken time to tell us the cause of the flooding. This might be a case of blocked drainages and may not necessarily require the intervention of the state government.

I see a market here. The market union or association can easily take care of this.

Well. Like the drowning passengers in the Titanic, Dullard_inho's supporters have no choice but to face the consequence of their actions.

As for me and my family. Monitoring from a safe location

Senseless write-ups.

Who reads the economist these days. CIA funded terrorists who will never report on the crimes been committed in the Congo because of their interests.

Very soon we place a ban on importation of labour into this country. You guys better get ready to lament till thy kingdom come.

In your wild dreams.

Wake up Rivers is gone. Imo is next.

Waste of time
Both the Caretaker Governor and his caretaker Chairmen will soon be booted out.
