gidgiddy: What I'm more concerned about is this foolish talk about if Anioma State is created, if it will be in the South South or South East
The constitution of Nigeria does not know anything called South South or South East
The constitution only recognises 774 local governments, 36 states and Abuja.
Should Anioma state be created, the constitution will recognise 37 states. So how then can you join something, or remain part of something not recognised by law?
South South and South East are just mere geographical expressions only. In reality, they don't exist as political units
Is it not the basis of geo political zones that SE is demanding for extra state to balance the equation of 6 states per region? Whether it is in the constitution or not geo political regions have come to to stay. The newly created SEDC is based on the geo poliitical zone, so many things are done in this country based on the geo political zones.
Biafra Government In Exile have called on their supporters to lend them money with 100% interest with special gift but you are not allowed to make even a partial withdrawal of the money until they extablish their government in homeland. Ask yourself,when are they going to extablish their government in Eastern Nigeria? They are taking our people for a loooooooong blody ride.This is ponzi scheme of highest level.
The governor of Abia state is truly making impact with his impressive performance, and it's clear that the state made an excellent choice. His leadership style, which seems to be inspired by Peter Obi's ideology, is bringing about significant positive change to the state. But again , I don't like the amount he's putting on this budget, because other thieves are doing, doesn't mean he has to do it too. I know he meant well and want to utilize the money for the benefits of all Abians, but still sir, I am not impressed with this.
Alex Otti is more ambitious in mega project delivery than Peter Obi who was more conservative in saving money than spending. Both are good in their own ways.
Arda1000: Ok but what will few folks with pump actions do against this guys?
The military have raided their camp in Okigwe and seized most of their weapons and killed many of them last week while their leader Gentle escaped.What they are now doing is mop up exercise inside villages.They have been greatly weakened. Mind you the vigilante is backed up with military.
agadez007: The People of Orsu allowed them in the first place,now they are the monsters they made They came to my town in the guise of fighting Fulani hedsmen in our forests,I thank God they weren’t welcomed,we would have been facing the same thing
Your community were smart people unlike Orsu,Orlu,Okigwe,Orsumoghu and many communities in Anambra state really fall for the Biafra agitation scam now they have all learned in a hard way. Recently they are trying to shift their evil activities to Ohafia if they allow them to set up bases in their community in few months time their home town will become a ghost town.
The above thread had this OP all over it trying to drive the false narrative that Ndigbo are in support of 'sit-at-home'! This is one of his posts on that thread:
I have come across the same line in bold a number of times when engaging Igbo-hating impostors on this forum.
sparko1: You say it like that combination is new, under Buhari that combination didn't work because NW is the powerhouse of the north and the only way to win in the north is to win NW.
If Atiku becomes the flag bearer that will only mean PO is vice, that alone will reduce their votes in the SS, SE, and of course SW will be completely out from it.
That means 60 percent in SE, 55 percent in SS, 50 percent in NC, a 30 percent in SW.
The game is still in the North, Atiku can't replicate his win in NE (remember vice president is from that region) and NW become the queen that everyone wants, trust me they know.
So Atiku wins nothing in NW and NE . 2027 is not 2019.Buhari who is a northerner is not Tinubu who is a SWner.
MadamExcellency: You stay in Ariara and write rubbish about a locality you know nothing about. It's a shame for you to get yourself involved without asking the Indigenous people of Orsu what the gross is all about.
Abeg shift.
You make me laugh.If I am not mistaken you once claimed to come from Anioma right? Btw I do not have to come from Orsu to know whats going on there.For years in this platform I have been exposing atrocities of so called IPOB freedom fighters in Igboland now the truth is becoming glaring even to most gullible person. It is game over to all yahoo yahoo freedom fighters. Follow the link and go to the facebook page read comments from those who are indigenes of Orsu.Dr Ugo who posted the videos on his wall is from Imo state.
sparko1: You just said, all previous president from the north are from NW, it's a game of Numbers and the NW has the number.
What you don't get is, everything is about personal and regional interest in the North, only the South is sentimental and BTW it doesn't matter who is president, sooner or later we would have faced this issue, the only difference is when.
NW votes alone can not win election for any candidate go and ask Buhari. Combination of Atiku and Obi is a game changer even APC knows that coupled with the fact that Tinubu administration is a disaster to Nigerians irrespective of religion and region.
MadPolitician: No news here. You are the one who has been confusing yourself. You have always been told that a lot of criminals were deliberately introduced into the south-east to cause great harm to the people, in other to blame IPOB ESN. You kept denying this because blaming IPOB fits a convenient narrative. Criminals should be flushed out. Everyone has been saying this. There is a clear distinction between ipob and petty kidnappers.
Your taqiya have become stale. Did you watch the videos? The security agents and the vigilante guys who are members of the community are no fools they know who the enemies are and they called their name. The villagers whose homes were forcefully occupied knew who occupied them.Umuoma are umu boys Nnamdi Kanu.
Mbanda,IGBOPROMISE1 come and write your usual long epistle in defense of IPOB and tell us FG agents are the cause of insecurity in Igboland. Our people are now doing clean up exercise in our communities getting rid of undesirable irredeemable IPOB extremists and their iberiberism.
This is the impossibility of the century, the fact that he is aligned with PO will greatly reduce his vote in his home state.
You forget the Vice president is from NE, before now he was a nobody, now he is a vice president like Atiku with influence and money.
During the last election, the outgoing president wasn't involved with the election he remained neutral, now all the political works are in place, so NW is gone.
There's a fact that the NW obviously feels they will produce the next president after Tinubu, if they help Tinubu onto his second term, if they allow Atiku, he will definitely use up the quota for the north and they will have to wait another 16 years to be considered, in addition to the fact that Atiku won't pick from NW for his vice presidential candidate.
Must NW produce the president? All former presidents from the North Shagari,Yaradua and Buhari are Fulani from northwest. Atiku is Fulani from NE.For the fact Tinubu's government is not living up to expectation is the reason for the whole nation to vote against him including SW.
Frigga13: I’m only saying … if obi and Tinubu on ballot
But if they PDP and Obi finalized on an understanding.. of whatever pact that favors them..
All those fear that the west will throw up .. will become fallacies.. gaining trust of both northern minorities and Muslims…. And will cement the political relationship between east and North
As I said earlier I support Atiku and Obi alliance to wrestle power from Tinubu.
Frigga13: The west will play the Muslim card.. and “ Biafra … “on the north. Both their Muslim and the Christian minorities will align … Obi will have just the south and east..
There’s a believe that . Ipob will push and threaten obi . Giving him an offer he won’t refuse .. with no one to help
You getting me confused I don't even know where you stand! I thought you are advocating for Atiku and Obi alliance?If so why are you pessimistic over your own proposal? The west will play muslim and Biafra card on the North like he did last election and the North will fall for it the second time that means una mumu never do.Why are we here wasting our time then?SE is not desperate for power we have been without it for almost 60 years.
@bolded what do you mean Ipob will push and threaten Obi?
sparko1: Add kwansuku or whatever his name is, they will still not win.
Atiku can't win in the north, and Obi could only get that vote because he was the presidential candidate, as far as they can't both be president at the same time, they can't win.
That is not true.Atiku only needs to win majority of votes in NW and NE and 25% votes in most NC states then Peter Obi will deliver SE and SS it is game over.
Frigga13: The reality like I told you 2 years ago is still the same Igbos must have a chance to govern Nigeria and that must be if they politically align so well.
Trust is something that is needed .. majority of Nigerians outside east don’t trust Igbos with power . .. knowing in reality that they can make Nigeria work.. But you see that issue of Biafra .. is something too deep in nigeria.. both the northern and southern minorities see it as threat.. talk more of the majorities .. another is the religious intolerance between east and North .. also the deep divide created by the Yoruba media to stop Igbos from getting to center
These are realities stopping the east .. slugging it on their own without a proper alignment Again The east don’t really know their enemies.. they see north as their enemies why their core enemies reside in south with them and on daily propagate negative against them
What is the north that quieten Obi and his Obidients in the last 19 months..
Is a media propaganda lunched by yoruba.. Btw Tinubu and Obi only on ballot .. walahi Tinubu will win without rigging . Straight .
So Chief .. forget sentiments no one is gaslighting you.. just the obvious realities
Or do you think .. Yoruba people are kidding when they say Igbo will never rule Nigeria
Know this truth because they understand politics more .
Wake to reality
I agree with you that Obi and Atiku should come back together before 2027 election the merger will give them tremendous advantage over Tinubu.It is good and a win win deal for both Peter Obi and Atiku because if they go it alone like they did in last election Tinubu will rig and win again.If Atiku lose again in 2027 it will over for him as he will be in his late 80s before next election and Peter Obi have to wait for another 12 years when power will rotate back to south to try his luck. Peter Obi will always win Tinubu in a free and fair election without riging Tinubu will lose in his polling booth.
gidgiddy and sultanofpigs the people are now revolting against Biafra extremists in their communities. You can now see that the oppressors who chased away people from their villages are the yahoo yahoo freedom fighters and turn it into a ghost town.May God forbid ayhpob.
kedeojo: Some foolish Obidients will come for your head now. Abia is close to rivers and there is international airport in portharcourt and the governor still want to build an airport. Those goats will not see any wrong in it but would have condemned it if it was another region or Apc controlled state. A smart governor will rather go for a seaport project.
34 states out 36 states have airport,Abia state deserves an airport more than any other state. Do you know what it means to travel from Aba or Umuahia to catch a flight in either Owerri or PH? I can't wait to land directly in my state when ever I am visiting home. 4 out of 5 states of SE have airport and you want Abia state to be odd one mbanu.We deserve it like yesterday.
The people of Orsu have risen up to reclaim their towns and villages occupied by criminals masquerading as Biafra agitators who occupied their villages and made it a ghost town.Thank God our people are now waking up from slumber.
Have you fixed the Monday seat at home, to improve your local economy?
Have you improved IGR and VAT remittance?
He is fixing every road that needed to be fixed. There are only two states in Nigeria without airport, Abia state deserves it more than many others who have it already.
kettykin: Nice development but I thought a port would be the game changer . Anambra and Abia need ports to evacuate manufactured goods , reduce freight costs for imported goods as well as reduce over dependence on Lagos.
Anambra have functioning River Port at Onitsha which port again do you want in Anambra? As for Abia building a port is not a project state government can handle on their own as dredging of the river will cost hundreds of millions of dollars if not billions.
