Sometimes you just feel ashamed of being a Nigerian with all this unnecessary drama happening in the North.

The Almajiris,
Bandits,
Boko haram,
Poor education,
Begging,
Killings,
Sharia and
Poor Governance
Ravaging the region should be more focus on.

We should stop acting like we can isolate all of Nigeria's problems to the North. Except for Sharias, South has its own version of all the above.

thebosstrevor1:
Solders were there but they didnt shoot at protesters

Channelstv journalist that arrived the same Night literarily got shells and bullets from the scene

thebosstrevor1:
she is just a liar

Are CNN, Channels, Lagos governour, portion of Army that has agreed people in uniform were there, DW, Sahara Reporters, Amnesty International, UK Parliament etc Lying too?.

Or is it only Nigerian Government that is lying?

Restructuring not Presidency is the want of the Igbos

Admissionclass:
Just like you can't call Austrians Germany even though they speak the same language , ikwerres are not igbos anymore it's over. any igboman that votes amaechi 2023 is a fool amaechi is not an igbo man get that to your skull..

No actually the Austrians are Ethnically Germans and they agree on this.

Eastlink:
Nigeria is not dividing soon. Even if the worst should happen, the most peaceful regions will be Yorubaland and Igboland. Ask me why? Ethnic homogeneity.

Arewa might work because of religious unity, but when it comes to ethnicity, a never ending war will arise there.

For Niger-Delta republic lol! Don’t even go there. Those pushing for such republic are the Ijaws. A typical Edo man want a to rejuvenate the forgotten Benin empire carrying along the Urhobo, Isoko, Itshekiri with them. While those of us remaining will rather be dead than join an Ijaw dominated Adaka Boro republic.

So the more Eastern Niger-Delta after Ijaw be willing to work with Igbos if/when Nigeria disintegrates?

Abayolaid:
CAN U EXPLAIN IT

You know what, give me some months to go through Catholics cannon law and I will return I full detail. I know Quaker Theology but we are in the minority.

DiagnoPolitics:
Waste of megabytes. Amaechi is not Igbo and therefore his red caps and Ishiagu cannot be used to measure his Igboness, he is an Ikwerre man just like Wike. He will not be allowed to take what rightfully belongs to Igbos- a majority ethnic group. Let him run on a campaign of Ikwerre presidency not Presidency of Igbo extraction. Igbos are not fools.

Yeah, Ikwerre Neva hold presidency either. Make them get their 1st

Abayolaid:
jesus said: i'm not come to destroye d law of moses, but to esterblish it. How did he esterblish it? over 99.9% are collecting tithes, and is not contain in d new testerment, are they on manifest error?

And you still refuse to understand the differences in Christian Theology

Naajjii:
So stop blaming Nigerian Government put the blames on you Igbos and your other igbo brothers that want to be part of Nigeria. Go and talk to yourselves and put your house in order then come and negotiate with others Nigerians that you want to leave. But in a situation where one leg is in Nigeria and other leg is Biafra then you people start blaming Nigeria, Hausa/fulani as your problem is not acceptable.

When Ijaw said they want to leave, them let them?

When Tiv say them want to leave Northern region, them let them?

The same with Ogoni and so on. I agree with you, Igbos have to first plan our escape but "negotiate with others Nigerians that you want to leave" did work for Tiv, Biafra, Ogoni or Ijaw and it will never work

BIGGESThead6:
They no dey hear word, their CHEST BEATING TOO MUCH. But the NORTH wan show them say, we no be mates.

The North will never give Biafra their independence.

Well at least I see why people like IPOB exist now.

Edit :-

Anyway, East still contributes nothing to Nigeria so I don't get why North will be suffering itself to keep East in Nigeria just to punish Nigeria. They are literally suffering themselves to suffer East which I think is stupid.

BIGGESThead6:
Anambra na IGALA STATE, e no dey EAst.

With this level of spite and stupidity, arguing further is mute.

Wolexdey:
The Youth's seriously needs to mobilize and head straight to Abuja... We are in a Democracy regime and not a Military regime... No one can scare the Youth's with bullets and sounds of guns...

If they have the heart of a Military personnel, the Youth's have the heart of a fearless and resilient NIGERIAN SPIRIT...

We are NIGERIANS and can never succumb to intimidation and fear... We all know how Abacha ended...

Where you not in Abuja when they imported illiterate Hausa people to attack protesters?

And how will we determine that merit?

Because if it is by voting, everyone will vote for their tribe and Hausa will rule forever.

Only solution is to restructure to 6 to 9 Autonomous Zones that can do what ever they want with little Federal government insight.

BIGGESThead6:
IGBO only have 4 States in this Country. Imo, Ebonyi, Enugu and Abia.

U no Sabi spell Anambra or eating?

BIGGESThead6:
You just described the EAST. The PARASITE REGION that contributes ZERO to the Economy.

So why do you want Nigeria to keep subsidizing East even when Easterners don't want to be part of Nigeria. Why not give them their country instead?

Restrictions or Nothing

Igbos say restructuring or nothing

blaqoracle:
it will be easier for head of a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for an igbo man to be the president of nigeria.

Yeah, Igbos need restructuring not presidency

anataala:
Nobody stop any Nigerian in respective of his tribe or religion to seek for the highest political office in Nigeria. It’s democracy.

But Nigerian democracy works by Tribalism, the tribes will always vote for their people and the biggest tribes will always win.

naija4life247:
That is to show you that they need psychiatric evaluation. The work in GTBank, but the want UBA to pay them salaries. Isn’t it madness?

It is people like you that are idiots that don't understand how democracy works. In your mind it is a game of which tribe gets to plunder the other tribes, a game of 3 wolves voting with 2 sheeps on what to eat.

Democracy is a decision making process where you decide the policies of which leaders is better and then those policies are implimented equally on everyone.

blackpanda:
That's delta state. I believe u can read

Niger-Delta is not a tribe, it is a state. Or are you Ignorant of what that is

OneKinGuy:
NO ROOM FOR EXTREMISTS IN NIGERIA.

The Nigeria police should crack down hard on them!

And what violence have they commited?

Shut up Zombie

SilverNorGold:
.. I think he lost cos he arrogantly called our beloved Father "lifeless"...

That unprovoked insult provoked God Almighty, hence, his woeful loss..

Moral of the story: don't curse anyone the Lord has blessed.

God bless President Mohammadu Buhari.
God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Someone who thinks they are more important than they actually are.

Naajjii:
No tribe is talking about leaving Nigeria except Igbo people.Nobody is holding Igbo from leaving Nigeria if you want to leave you are free but you want to eat your cake and have it. While you are enjoying benefits from other tribes you are on the other hand asking you want to leave. If you people decide with one voice who is going to stop you from leaving? Some of you want to be in Nigeria because of the enjoyment and great environment in other regions which you lack in your region, others like IPOD miscreats want to leave, so whose fault that you cant achieve your Biafra. You people are not organised and you people like materialism more than your Biafra. If Arewa decide today that they want to leave within a week that is achieved. But look at your people how long have you been asking for Biafra?

Other people have tried to leave and failed, only difference is that they mostly shut up about it after.

Tiv from Northern region in 1964
Isaac Boro in 1966
Some Kanuri as recently as 2012

And there are many others. All of these were stopped with force by the Nigerian Government so everybody has learnt to out their heads down, except Igbos apparently.

So stop acting like the Nigeria government will allow Igbo secession, if they find allow all those other peoples, this will be no different.

And I think you yourself now see it, there are 2 types of Igbo people, those that are okay with suffering under Nigerian oppression for crumbs and those that aren't, the former has learnt to do like all those other peoples I mentioned before and keep their collective heads down.

But that hasn't made Nigeria treat them any better. The Igbo people up North that are pretending to be Hausa to fit in, the moment anyone finds out that they are Igbo the same thing will always happen to them.

I guess you are also right about the need for Organization, so far any attempt at that with the possible exception of PDP always hits a road block somewhere.

However as for Arewa leaving, they can only do that at their measure because they control the military, the oil, the ports and the taxes, basically everything that they need to control to win any Military engagement. Oduduwa is just as organized but they cannot dare to break off, and why will Arewa want to break off when they control all of the above? Isn't that what Igbos tried to do before and fail?.

ijawcitizen:
I understand you are worried about what a formidable force like a sovereign Niger Delta Republic does to your biafra republic.

All I see you do is wrangling to create a scary scenario for the Niger Delta to consider a union with igbo because you feel trapped in your space with Arewa to your North, Oduduwa to your West, and Niger Delta Republic to your South.

I feel your pain, being trapped is not a nice spot to be, but that is the only future for igbo, embrace and kiss it now.

Now I am convinced you are either emotional or stupid.

Biafra, with its own military command, larger manpower and larger % of the country's economy than S.S. today, relative to the rest of Nigeria, couldn't stand up to Nigeria. But you expect S.S. today to be able to?

Just look at what Obasanjo did to Niger Delta avengers and Ogoni people to tell you what will happen.

Lol

ijawcitizen:
Yen yen yen yen!
Thanks very much for for concern, let us worry about all that.

Oya face your front igbo man.

Whatever. It's not like yours or mine opinion matters.

I just hope that those whose actions will matter will have better foresight than you.

ijawcitizen:
We do not share in your ridiculous insecurities.
Niger Delta is a sovereign country of its own and there is nothing you can do about it, or let's just say we are ready for the worst you can do about it. This is not 1967 when you brought your igbo-fulani to be fought in the Niger Delta.

Never again shall we be your pawns.

So tell me how a Niger-Delta republic would work without Igboland?

How will you defend your wide borders, how will coordinate troops effectively without a centralized territory to coordinate through, how will would defend your position without wide high ground?

Like do you even know what it takes to win a war against a more populous country? And you want to make it even easier to be crushed by the Nigerian Military.

Ibadansun1:
Many of them are to young to remember Obama pull out majority of the troops in middle east.

Obama preferred sting operation than sending military to occupy any country.

He mostly replaced American troops that he had to report of their deaths with mercenaries that he could hide their casualties.

Cyberterror:
Amaechi's Igbo wife has brainwashed him. Ikwerres are united in their stand that they are not Igbos. Go to Ikwerre land and see for yourself.

Almost any old Ikwerre will say they are Igbo
