Maybe Arewa Republic
Not naija

You're very correct.
The name of the country could be changed to Arewa by the national assembly

makavell7:
OLEE!!! Rivers is not a south eastern state and will never be. You idiots still think we are in 1967

I know it is painful to you.

Much the those named LGAs still identify as Igbos


That was partly why Wike tried to annihilate them.

When the time comes, every bit of Igbo territory down to Grand Bonny and Opobo, will be part of the future Igbo nation.

the great yoruba man called Black Scorpio. …

Black scorpion was in PH.

Murtala Mohammed was the man at Ore.

Shouldn't it be Unknown Matchetmen UMM

olas24u:
What are you writing? Is Ebonyi not igbo land. Its very simple, you do not want to corner yourselves, because you want more territories to steal, having a regional police means you have defined your borders,qnd created a igbo region and territory.that is just the simple truth.

I laugh at your ignorance.

With the same logic you used above, I can also tell you that state policing also defines your borders on the state level. States are smaller than regions.

I have told you what the real issue is, and you are still bringing up a totally irrelevant argument

Buckeyemedia1:
Na by force? They are also similar to Igala & Nupe dialects.

No they are not similar to Igala and Nupe, but they are similar to some other Igbo dialects.

But we are not even interested in any Igboids that don't want to identify with the generality of the Igbos.

olas24u:
Well you can create a manufacturing hub but need infrastructure and security to attract people from west and central Africa. Don't continue to wait to share south west and south south money.

Igboland has more than 95% of Nigeria's gas reserves and about 50% of inland oil reserves. Believe you me, we will be very alright.

The two most oil-laden local governments in Nigeria are Igbo-speaking. They are Oyigbo and ONELGA Lgas, both in Rivers state

olas24u:
Lol, go and read the confab reports, you are writing your own things

That is what I am telling you.

It was the Ebonyi delegation that insisted on state police, rather than regional police. So Igbos went with the state police option because it was still better than the current policing structure.

sokera:
then you don’t know history … your ppl spread too much lies and propaganda

Then who was the commander of the military force that confronted Biafrans at Ore?

sokera:
maybe you should check your google and search for Ore fight … it was the Yorubas that Bleep your fore fathers up when they were coming down south-west to kill Yorubas … we roast them … you can ask your father

Murtala was the commander of the federal force that confronted Biafrans at Ore. How did a federally-equipped and federally-manned force, all of a sudden, become a Yoruba force?

We all know Murtala Mohammed was not a Yoruba man and thousands of the men under him were not Yoruba also. Of course there will be some Yorubas in his force.

But that still confirms was I wrote earlier on, that no ethnic group in Nigeria can confront the Igbos one on one. They always have to combine forces at the federal level before they can develop the guts to confront Igbos.

olas24u:
Igbos want state police, southwest want regional police, you want resident in States instead of State of origin. Many items that you want that you don't want, so we don't want the same thing. You donot want restructuring.

We need restructuring more than you guys, if truth be told.

As for Policing, our real preference is regional police, but usually Ebonyi state takes very bearish views on these things, and may prefer a state police. But we want regional police.

We want every Igbo-speaking territory in Nigeria to be lumped into the same region. It is more natural and organic. I am certain Yorubas will want the same thing for Yorubaland.
This will allow Igboland to pool her resources together and make more meaningful developmental plans e.t.c
We want resource control. We even want resource control more than the Niger delta

sokera:
motigbo … your forefathers makes mouth more than that … na Ore our fathers Bleep their ass up

Is Murtala a Yoruba man?

No ethnic group in the whole of Nigeria can stand Igbos one on one. And that's a fact.

Not Fulani
Not Hausa
And definitely not Yoruba

Just Anioma section of Igboland will make you their bitches

sokera:
just take note .. south-west will never be home to Igbos again … I pity your properties and businesses

You want me to fall out of my chair laughing

Just hope the UGM in the east don't start flooding the west with militants. This time around, you people will be refugees in Sahara desert, not Benin republic..

For as long as we are all in Nigeria. We go dey for Lagos gidigba, and there is nothing you can do about it.

olas24u:
Bottom line integration of all southwest states continue in respective of Wheather we get it or not. We will continue to fight for devolution of power in all sectors to free ourselves from bondage.

Very sensible point.
Igbos are also all for what you wrote up here, and I know it is only an Igbo president that will have the guts to implement these measures.
Obasanjo was more interested in a third term than restructuring Nigeria
GEJ was scared shit-less of the north, and allowed himself to be booted out of power, before he could restructure the country.

I know it is only an Igbo president that will carry these reforms out with gusto.

Mandate2023:
So its igbos that will be shearing presidency to other regions with ur 5% 5 states

Is it that most of u r foolish or ur brains are empty, u just carry phone and type all sort of jagons as if u know what u r saying

Exactly! Your only chance now is for Buhari to endorse Tinubu, otherwise just watch and see how this very phenomenal 5% will ensure that no SW person ever sees the presidency ever again..

Abiola showed the same condescending behaviour towards the Igbos, when he ranted that Igbos didn't matter in the affairs of Nigeria. You obviously know how Abiola ended.

Just watch and see what this 5% will do to Tinubu.

olas24u:
The southwest have been in opposition for decades, this is the first time we will be in alliance to get to the center. You have been with them for so long, and could not function well as an opposition. A vibrant democracy must have opposition. You have dinned with every government in power and they alawyas give you useless positions.

Whatever!!!

Bottom line is that Igbos will not be supporting the SW for the 2023 presidency. The same SW that worked hard to ensure that no Igboman makes it to the top 6 position in Nigeria. Iyasikwa!!! Come and win it let us see.

Mandate2023:
So in ur dreams lawan will just win d election and after his tenure hand over to igbos and igbos won't be interested in biafra again bcoz 2031 dey will become president ......what a foolish set of ppl

Igbos are not as foolish as Yorubas to expect that Lawan will hand over to an Igboman.

When Lawan is done with his presidency, the presidency will be turn of the SE, but if the other regions of the south won't support the Igbo claim, the Igbos will support a presidency from the NC. It will keep going this way, until the south develops sense and supports the Igbo to that seat

IPIGSRMUMU:
Yeah Nmadiot Coward Cownu is also a Fulani man with a good heart
GTFOH

Let me first of all apologise to princeoflagos, as I know that the paedophile known as Awolowo, may also be his hero.

The rat poison Awolowo drank to extinguish his evil life, has a better heart than Tinupoo.

olas24u:
You don't have the numbers to win an election in Nigeria, I don't know what you are talking about, restructuring is the best for you, but you people don't want it. We know that, just pretending and be shouting a slave name biafra.

Yorubas also don't have the numbers to win an election.

I know Tinubu is now relying on Buhari endorsing him. OUK's position is an intelligent position.

No more southern babbling. It is now about self-interest. The SE will get into this game. The SW has been in this game for so long.
Let us now see how Tinubu can win this election

IPIGSRMUMU:
[s][/s]
You must be a mumu to believe for a second that this OMO Igbo is a Yoruba man.
He's prince of Abakaliki.
There are many of them on social media masquerading as Omo Yoruba just to deceive gullible ones like you.

You are lying. He is a pure Yoruba man. A Yoruba man with conscience in his heart.

I just hope you will learn from him, so that your brain can be upgraded.

olas24u:
Even after this igbos will wait and will not get it, you can't continue to work against the interest of Yoruba people.

Yorubas are already working against the interest of Igbos. That is why it is now proving more difficult for a Yoruba to emerge as the president.

Mark my words, if Yorubas fail to get the presidency in 2023, it will even be more difficult for them to get it subsequently

PrinceOfLagos:
Primaries is just a week away , stop wailing

How I wish every other Yoruba person will learn from you.

It is refreshing to read from at least one intelligent Yoruba man on nairaland

While every Igboman respects Chief Mbazuluike Amaechi, someone should tell him to keep quiet, as Igbos make moves to liberate themselves politically.

Chief Amaechi has been in politics since the time of Zik. With his experience, what did they bequeath to us, the younger generation? Absolutely nothing.
They are all over the place playing that crap southern alliance bullshit, meanwhile Yoruba men are trying to sneak in and get the presidential nomination that should have been zoned to the SE.

OUK's move is hardnosed, and the best option for the Igbos. If the south can't find it in their hearts to zone the 2023 presidency to the Igbos, the most presidentially deprived region of the north should take it. That is the logic that guarantees Igbo relevance.

All this shadow-chasing going on now, about some illusory south should be extinguished from the minds of Ndigbo, if we want to make a headway.

Elliot Uko is a season fellow, judging by what I have been reading about him for many years.

The SE governors worked hand-in-hand with Buhari to carry out the military assault of 2017.

They are all neck deep into this mess, coupled with the incompetence of Nnamdi Kanu himself.

Today Igboland is suffering for it. Idiots like SImon EKpa and the rest are being propped up.

duro4chang:
Uzor kalu will not agree to that even Hope uzodinma too.

Most Igbos will not agree to this also.

So it is dead on arrival.

The SW, which is a part of the south, has been in power for16 years, and are still looking to be voted for in 2023. That is totally unacceptable.

Igbos will not be supporting the SW. I am pretty certain much of the SS will also not be supporting the SW on this issue.

Adedayorr:
Any attempt by Buhari to impose a Northerner on the South after 8 years in office will be resisted.

Buhari should hand over power to the South the way Goodluck Jonathan handed over power to Buhari, otherwise Nigeria will become history.

We all know the evil agenda of Buhari to help the North retain power by all means.

Should war happen in Nigeria after or before elections, everybody should hold Buhari responsible.

What is happening in Ukraine will be a child's play compare to what will happen in nigeria........

If the SE is not allowed to take power, then power can go to the NE.

NE are more deserving of the presidency than the SW.

The SW has been in the presidency for 16 years since 1999

Kingsley10000:
let them enter wike territory

There is nothing wike can do, if they enter Rivers state.

Wike only waved his little d!ck at them, when they were not armed. Now they are armed.

I am sure in the next few weeks and months, they will enter Rivers state. And nothing will happen

UGM is expanding its arms. It can get to Lagos and Abuja this way. Once it gets to Abuja, all these senators gallivanting all over the place will realise that God is Good

Personally, I am not happy about it, but Nigerian government called for it, when they went shooting live bullets at peaceful protesters. When they also went killing and maiming Obigbo people in Rivers state.

Buhari's government is solely responsible for what is now happening. Imagine the venom and brutality with which UGM will start acting once they get to Abuja and other Fulani-infested places?

garfield1:
Tinubu will defeat atiku

Tinubu will not defeat Lawan

femisplash:
NW has had it twice, whenever it was zoned to the North, they gave it to NW twice, NE & NC had no choice. You gat to fight for it.

What I am really saying is that the NW voters are more likely to vote for a NE presidential candidate than Tinubu

femisplash:
SE has never been in the equation neither does Tinubu owes SE anything. The blackmail is absolutely nauseating.
No sensible Nigerian could wish away the sentiments of the North, Yar'Adua had only done 2 out of a possible 8 years, it's only instructive that they complete their tenure after GEJ had finished a tenure in acting capacity. OBJ completed his 8 years, why deny the North?.. APC was formed on the tripod of justice to wipe GEJ and his accomplices in line. Having completed their slot, it comes back to the south and the strongest of the south takes it.. simple.

Regarding the bolded, so it is no longer the case that fairness should determine who takes it. So at least you can see where Igbos are coming from. You want the strongest to take it, while the Igbos want fairness to be the scale of measurement.
But as Yorubas want the strongest to take it, Igbos are opting to go for a NW candidate as he will be stronger than Tinubu. Lawan has a better chance in both the NE and NW. With the understanding that might ensue between Igbos and the NW, it is quite possible that Lawan will register a huge landslide victory in the SE and a good chunk of the SS, thus depriving Tinubu the southern solidarity, any prospective southern president will need, to stand a chance.

Let us now use strongest
