Next is referendum, watch how it's granted asap. Nnamdi Kanu has never made a Statement in vain. He ordered for d release of Orji Uzor Kanu and Olisa Metuh, today both are out.
He ordered no police checkpoints in d East, today d Ag IGP has made it d new directive.
Nnamdi Kanu ordered Ohanaeze must not hold an open meeting in d South East today no such and their last assembling was in Lagos.
Nnamdi Kanu challenged Wike that he will bring him down today Wike has admitted he doesn't sleep in Govt House but runs btw his private residence along Ada George Rd and Army Bori camp.
Nnamdi Kanu pronounced Isa Funtua was next and in just few days d man joined the death list.

Hahahaha...... Idiot is talking. You failed to know that your being alive in this blood sucking contraption called Nigeria is because Emeka, Chidi and all those names your stupid mind called 'barbaric' are your saviors.
Let them leave today and your father's compound will be your graveyards converted by the unstoppable sword of the fulanis.

We will as well leave you for a Nigeria with friendly names such as Fulani herdsmen, biko haram, bandits e.t.c.

I think it will be a Nigeria to enjoy by you and the afonjas

Not a few people often argue that Nigeria will not break up. They are so optimistic to the extent they always give reasons why it will not break up. However, contrary to such hardline stance, unfolding events have proven that Nigeria is apparently living in its last years as one nation. If anyone still had doubts before, the recent move by UK to recognize the separatists is enough to convince you where the pendulum is swinging.

In Africa, South Africa, Nigeria and Egypt are no doubt UK's most important former colonies. They will do everything diplomatically possible to maintain good relations with these countries.

UK is a very cunning country, they have seen that Nigeria is on the verge of breaking up and they decided to be proactive by recognizing the separatists. If you think UK didn't weigh things critically before embarking on this diplomatic attack on Nigeria, then you're not using your head.

UK has become completely fed up with Nigeria and having weighed their options to see that Nigeria is headed for the rocks, they decided to hit Nigerian government this deadly blow without minding how bad the government will feel.

What the UK did is tantamount to China going all out to encourage South Korea, without minding how North Korea will feel or Russia recognizing Taiwan and opening diplomatic relations with them without minding how their Chinese friends will feel.

This move alone should convince anyone who thinks critically that Nigeria is about to unravel. If the UK can make such bold move against the Nigerian government, then it is not farfetched that they may wake up tomorrow and rally the international community to call for a referendum on Nigeria.
British stand to gain more in a United Nigeria rather than a divide Nigeria, I'm not against the independence of the so called divided Nigeria I'm only stating the facts.

You truly overestimate the power of the UK.

They are just one fcking HAS BEEN colonial power of yesteryear, with no influence over any sovereign nation of Nigeria's status.

If the NIGERIAN GOVT says no part of Nigeria shall secede, THAT'S THE END OF THAT, whatever Britain thinks.

If you want to go to war, make we fight, and we shall turn the East to a parking lot.

If you think Britain will send her soldiers to fight and die for you, you have another think coming.

If you think Britain will send you weapons to fight Nigeria, you are the most deluded goat on the planet.

Mumu people. Dependent, colonised, and slave-minded.

Waiting on your slave master to save you from his own creation.

If you people had basic geopolitical common sense, you would be seeking alliances with nations like North Korea, Iran and Cuba, not Britain.

Those are the sort of rebel, anti-imperialist nations that do 'freedom fighting'.

That do surreptitious armaments shipments and stockpiling.

That send mercenaries to fight for freedom.

But no. You foolishly go crawling to the same imperialists that enslaved and colonised you and raped your mothers, expecting them to be 'good' to you this time.

Britain is likely just setting you guys up for another slaughter.

This was the same way France deceived Ojukwu, and pretended to support 'Biafra'.

When push came to shove they refused to supply weapons to Biafra, and you were left to fight with cutlass and catapult and your primitive Ogbunigwe.

This time you will fight with sticks and stones and lose 10 million people instead of the usual 2 million.

Geopolitical neophytes.




Overestimation of a country that is almost limbless.
You think it will be the same as it was? Even now, Southeast is fighting fulanis with a more sophisticated improvised device. Your myopia and hatred has hampered from vision from seeing that it won't be easy for the federal government to go into war with any prepared region now. Who will fight for your unity? The regions that fought in the 60s while Awolowo was in the West eating amala and ewedu are also battered and are angry with this Fulani government. Wake up!

I just pray that the federal government will be humble enough to call for a conference that will be implemented at the end.

Not necessary.
Once the international community supports the call for referendum, not only Oduduwa will be recognized, all other regions of the middle belt and south south that wants to go their ways would be represented.
There's no way Biafra will exit and the rest of Nigeria remains.

NOTHING WILL HAPPEN.

The country will carry on, and in one and half years time, will hold elections, elect a southern president, and 95% of the 'separatist agitators' will shut up and start looking for contracts.

The southern government will rein in the herdsmen by deploying more soldiers tom the bush, and do same for Boko haram.


The economy will bounce back, and Nigeria will continue developing as usual with more infrastructure projects coming up.

Finish.

Dude, it is not civilians or ''regions'' that fight wars.

It is TRAINED SOLDIERS.

They are trained to obey the orders of the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces.

If you declare secession, an illegal act, the Nigerian government will send its MILITARY to level your territory with bombs.

It is not dependent on whether Mr Alabi in Ibadan or Mr Ortom in Benue likes Nigeria or not.

How other people in other parts of Nigeria feel about it is 100% irrelevant.

This is why I say you Biafrans are very NAIVE when it comes to politics, the military, and geopolitics.

You treat these issues as if you are dealing with your tribal wars of old, where villagers gather to decide on whether or not to fight a neighbouring clan.

It doesn't work that way in the real world of today.

So GET A JOB, or START A BUSINESS, and quit wasting your time on fantasies.

How does the Igbo benefit the common man, is it by importing hard drug into the country to destroy the life of youths, is it by kidnapping peoples children and using them for baby making factory or rituals, is it by luring the youth into cultism thereby shortening their life span, is it by teaching the youth not to respect their elders and constituted authority, is it by joining force with your fellow brothers to scam people of their hard earned money, is it by bringing bad name to the country, because any crime committed abroad, 99.9 percent are always Igbo, now you people have invented male prostitution in abroad and so many other things related to evil. You are the idiot and it seems there is no one to tell you that, so my question to you is that how does the Igbo benefit me when they are in Nigeria??

I can feel your pains and disappointment which is very apparent. However, I will respond to your emotional outbursts as logical as possible.

1st paragraph, are you trying to compare Nigeria to China in global diplomatic circle or what? China is a very powerful and very influential country, now almost at par with the US. They have what it takes to fight any country to a standstill over Hong Kong and no nation or global organization can intimidate them, not even US or UK! On the contrary, Nigeria is a third world, poor, highly dependent and very weak country. A couple of sanctions and threats by global bodies like UN is enough to make its government to grovel and beg.

2nd and 3rd paragraph, UK may no longer be the powerful Great Britain it used to be but trying to write them off is just wishful thinking. UK alongside Germany and France remain Europe's most influential countries. UK's traditional alignment with US makes them even more influential. UK can easily reach out to America and make them see reasons why Nigeria should be hit with crippling sanctions and possible external invasion should they refuse to comply and accept a referendum, especially if there is widespread loss of lives.

4th and 5th paragraph. You really seem to overestimate Nigeria's strength or capabilities. FYI, Nigeria is as weak, dependent and fragile as any poor third world country. It seems you don't understand how such scenario plays out but I will enlighten you. Britain does not need to send boots on the ground. However, once Britain becomes all out to subdue such recalcitrant Nigerian government, they will start with massive media attacks, international diplomacy and severe undermining of Nigeria's interests which will culminate in crippling sanctions on our oil exports, embargo on financial transactions with Nigeria, embargo on arms supply to Nigeria, sanctions on the president, his family, ruling party and anyone that identifies with them. Do you think Nigeria can survive a month under such scenario??

6th and 7th paragraph. Lol, it is Nigeria that has always seen Britain as its Lord and personal saviour. It was Britain that protected and provided all your needs both diplomatically, arms wise and logistically. Isn't it funny that you now turn around to accuse others of what you've been doing perennially over the years?

Last paragraphs. You're obviously living in the past. No one is setting anyone up and neither did France set Ojukwu up. These are just figments of your own imagination. If you think there would be another territorial war like Biafran/Nigerian war then it shows you're not a critical thinker. The most Nigeria can fight now is a guerilla warfare and you won't have the opportunity to use airstrikes or blockade to kill millions like you're dreaming. On the contrary, you would be fighting IPOB armed wing in the jungles and highways with occasional run-ins in the cities. The moment you leave that to start bombing markets or schools will only hasten the involvement of the UN. Remember there are American and French bases in Niger, Cameroun and Chad which makes it very easy for them to subdue Nigeria very easily. Also remember that once Yoruba people realize that Biafran has become achievable, they would immediately begin their own fight to establish Oduduwa. Which means in essence, it becomes a war between Arewa that is now surrounded against Biafra, Oduduwa and UN. How on earth do you think you can sustain such war beyond a few months??

Why not start the ball rolling and let us see this fantasy of yours achieved?

It is not about typing insolent, boastful epistles online.

Today, Nigeria is here and is going nowhere.

And there will be NO referendum.

Let us see you change that with the UK, France, the US and UN ganging up against Nigeria.

We are watching.

This was the same way Ojukwu insulted Nigeria as a ''poor, weak, 3rd world, bla bla bla'' before he lost 2 million people and fled to Ivory Coast when his wretched forces fell to vastly superior Nigerian firepower and training.

You are experts at TALKING. INSULTING.

That's it.

You really dont understand the British or Europeans at all.The colonialist will support both sides of the conflict so that whoever emerges the winner will give them concession.
They will arm and support both the Nigerian Govt and the seperatist groups at the same time.

You truly overestimate the power of the UK.

They are just one fcking HAS BEEN colonial power of yesteryear, with no influence over any sovereign nation of Nigeria's status.

If the NIGERIAN GOVT says no part of Nigeria shall secede, THAT'S THE END OF THAT, whatever Britain thinks.

If you want to go to war, make we fight, and we shall turn the East to a parking lot.

If you think Britain will send her soldiers to fight and die for you, you have another think coming.

If you think Britain will send you weapons to fight Nigeria, you are the most deluded goat on the planet.

Mumu people. Dependent, colonised, and slave-minded.

Waiting on your slave master to save you from his own creation.

If you people had basic geopolitical common sense, you would be seeking alliances with nations like North Korea, Iran and Cuba, not Britain.

Those are the sort of rebel, anti-imperialist nations that do 'freedom fighting'.

That do surreptitious armaments shipments and stockpiling.

That send mercenaries to fight for freedom.

When Angola was fighting for freedom, they built alliances with Fidel Castro's Cuba, who sent in military assistance to the MPLA who fought against the western-backed UNITA forces that supported the status quo.

The Angolans understood geopolitics.

But you 'Biafrans'? Dumb as bricks.

Like Ojukwu, you foolishly go crawling to the same imperialists that enslaved and colonised you and raped your mothers, expecting them to be 'good' to you this time.

Britain is likely just setting you guys up for another slaughter.

This was the same way France deceived Ojukwu, and pretended to support 'Biafra'.

When push came to shove they refused to supply weapons to Biafra, and you were left to fight with cutlass and catapult and your primitive Ogbunigwe.

This time you will fight with sticks and stones and lose 10 million people instead of the usual 2 million.

Geopolitical neophytes.




if Nigeria continues on this path, it is indeed destined for a breakup, what the west will want to do is make it as less painful ( to there interest) as possible. Apart from the ineptitude of buhari and co which has landed the country in this mess,consider all what is happening in sahel africa.
From mozambique to mali to Chad to Niger to Nigeria to cameroon and many other countries, islamists (isis,Boko Haram,iswap,al-shabab,al qaeda etc) are being barely held back by international forces.
No single nation can not divide if the conditions are right, even the USA had it's unity tested by the last election- but that is where flexibility comes into play something our leaders are known to lack.
Mark this post, if buhari and his replacement keeps towing this line, a day will come when they will be begging for the actors at play to accept restructuring but by then, it will be too late.

Not a few people often argue that Nigeria will not break up. They are so optimistic to the extent they always give reasons why it will not break up. However, contrary to such hardline stance, unfolding events have proven that Nigeria is apparently living in its last years as one nation. If anyone still had doubts before, the recent move by UK to recognize the separatists is enough to convince you where the pendulum is swinging.

In Africa, South Africa, Nigeria and Egypt are no doubt UK's most important former colonies. They will do everything diplomatically possible to maintain good relations with these countries.

UK is a very cunning country, they have seen that Nigeria is on the verge of breaking up and they decided to be proactive by recognizing the separatists. If you think UK didn't weigh things critically before embarking on this diplomatic attack on Nigeria, then you're not using your head.

UK has become completely fed up with Nigeria and having weighed their options to see that Nigeria is headed for the rocks, they decided to hit Nigerian government this deadly blow without minding how bad the government will feel.

What the UK did is tantamount to China going all out to encourage South Korea, without minding how North Korea will feel or Russia recognizing Taiwan and opening diplomatic relations with them without minding how their Chinese friends will feel.

This move alone should convince anyone who thinks critically that Nigeria is about to unravel. If the UK can make such bold move against the Nigerian government, then it is not farfetched that they may wake up tomorrow and rally the international community to call for a referendum on Nigeria.

OP is pained. Tell you useless Nigerian Govt to be active and we'll to do. Will you blame UK for the way the Hausa's are running Nigeria ? Ogbeni, we are ant to leave your stupid Country for you boko haramand Buhari to enjoy. Allow us.

British stand to gain more in a United Nigeria rather than a divide Nigeria, I'm not against the independence of the so called divided Nigeria I'm only stating the facts.

That was in the past!
The era when oil was everything is gone, tell me what else Britain stands to gain from a united Nigeria that it can't get from a broken Nigeria?

You think if Britain still believes so much in the unity of Nigeria like they did in the past, would they have given such massive psychological support to the separatists?

It is obvious that Britain has realized the futility in flogging a dead horse which Nigeria embodies and are now trying to make amends which may include helping to break up the country in the long run.

Britain is a very cunning country, they have probably realized that Nigeria is going to break up eventually and would rather remain pivotal so that the emerging countries would still appreciate its efforts.

Abeg make we hear word.

NOTHING WILL HAPPEN.

The country will carry on, and in one and half years time, will hold elections, elect a southern president, and 95% of the 'separatist agitators' will shut up and start looking for contracts.

The southern government will rein in the herdsmen by deploying more soldiers tom the bush, and do same for Boko haram.


The economy will bounce back, and Nigeria will continue developing as usual with more infrastructure projects coming up.

Finish.

Make una dey here dey waste una time instead of looking for business to do and join your mates in enjoyment.




I have saved this post for you!
Not for any other reasons, but to remind you of how pathetically naive you guys are..
My take: Buhari will hand over to a fellow northerner! Irrespective of the "noise"!
(When they fixed Lawan as the senate president, sidelined Osibanjo as the vee pee, while Elrufai picked a muslim/muslim ticket in Kaduna, they were sending a message which flew over your head)
He and his gang will then pull every trick in the books to legitimatize this, including using violence..
Folks from your side of town will be given some oil wells as usual to shut them up.
But that action of trying to "nothernize", officialdom in Nigeria will prove to be the final straw...
Your much vaunted alliance with the north only exists in your fanciful imaginations..

You really dont understand the British or Europeans at all.The colonialist will support both sides of the conflict so that whoever emerges the winner will give them concession.
They will arm and support both the Nigerian Govt and the seperatist groups at the same time.
They will not loose head or tail.It is called playing safe.

It is you that doesn't understand how the international community plays its politics. Times have changed and the world has become a lot more globalized than ever.

A total all out war in Nigeria will have devastating effects on the entire West Africa with boomerang effects getting to Europe by way of humanitarian crises.

The EU is already battling with influx of migrants coming from Africa, with a good number from Nigeria and rounding them up in Mediterranean Sea has become a tough and unending effort. Now imagine what will happen should Nigeria go up in flames. We are talking about a country of 200 million here. Do you know the thousands of people that would be risking the desert and sea to get into Europe?

There would be humanitarian crises of epic proportions and the EU won't have the moral rights to turn back or reject such asylum seekers from war torn Nigeria.

They understand this nightmare scenario and would rather avoid it by encouraging peaceful break-up.

NigeriaIsZOO:


I can feel your pains and disappointment which is very apparent. However, I will respond to your emotional outbursts as logical as possible.

1st paragraph, are you trying to compare Nigeria to China in global diplomatic circle or what? China is a very powerful and very influential country, now almost at par with the US. They have what it takes to fight any country to a standstill over Hong Kong and no nation or global organization can intimidate them, not even US or UK! On the contrary, Nigeria is a third world, poor, highly dependent and very weak country. A couple of sanctions and threats by global bodies like UN is enough to make its government to grovel and beg.

2nd and 3rd paragraph, UK may no longer be the powerful Great Britain it used to be but trying to write them off is just wishful thinking. UK alongside Germany and France remain Europe's most influential countries. UK's traditional alignment with US makes them even more influential. UK can easily reach out to America and make them see reasons why Nigeria should be hit with crippling sanctions and possible external invasion should they refuse to comply and accept a referendum, especially if there is widespread loss of lives.

4th and 5th paragraph. You really seem to overestimate Nigeria's strength or capabilities. FYI, Nigeria is as weak, dependent and fragile as any poor third world country. It seems you don't understand how such scenario plays out but I will enlighten you. Britain does not need to send boots on the ground. However, once Britain becomes all out to subdue such recalcitrant Nigerian government, they will start with massive media attacks, international diplomacy and severe undermining of Nigeria's interests which will culminate in crippling sanctions on our oil exports, embargo on financial transactions with Nigeria, embargo on arms supply to Nigeria, sanctions on the president, his family, ruling party and anyone that identifies with them. Do you think Nigeria can survive a month under such scenario??

6th and 7th paragraph. Lol, it is Nigeria that has always seen Britain as its Lord and personal saviour. It was Britain that protected and provided all your needs both diplomatically, arms wise and logistically. Isn't it funny that you now turn around to accuse others of what you've been doing perennially over the years?

Last paragraphs. You're obviously living in the past. No one is setting anyone up and neither did France set Ojukwu up. These are just figments of your own imagination. If you think there would be another territorial war like Biafran/Nigerian war then it shows you're not a critical thinker. The most Nigeria can fight now is a guerilla warfare and you won't have the opportunity to use airstrikes or blockade to kill millions like you're dreaming. On the contrary, you would be fighting IPOB armed wing in the jungles and highways with occasional run-ins in the cities. The moment you leave that to start bombing markets or schools will only hasten the involvement of the UN. Remember there are American and French bases in Niger, Cameroun and Chad which makes it very easy for them to subdue Nigeria very easily. Also remember that once Yoruba people realize that Biafran has become achievable, they would immediately begin their own fight to establish Oduduwa. Which means in essence, it becomes a war between Arewa that is now surrounded against Biafra, Oduduwa and UN. How on earth do you think you can sustain such war beyond a few months??
