shocked

South easterners and south southerners going back to Yoruba land and Hausa Fulani land to develop it for them in terms of erecting sophisticated buildings and seasoned businesses all around the the north and the south west.



I wonder what Nigeria would've look like if not for the Igbos
..... and I wonder what would be the fate of Igbos without South west and the north

I've beginning to believe that the Igbos are among the most travelled Nigerians, if not the most travelled in Nigeria.
They are equally the richest tribe in Nigeria

During rush hours like this, the best is to travel by night. I went to the east at night and came back at night, didn't experience any gridlock at all. Even the policemen at the checkpoints won't stop you to ask for money, they'll just wave you off

When it's not season, then you can travel during the day

The op never said such and no nation achieved independence by abandoning their investments and jobs in other parts of the world, what you said doesn't even make any sense, clearly, you're a nairaland resident tribalist, i'm not a tribalist, i don't hate Yoruba or Hausa people, i just believe that we would all be better off by peacefully going our separate ways through a referendum than living together by force, Nigeria has never worked, Nigeria is not working and Nigeria would never work.
stay in your place and fight for biafera that is what the guy is telling you...you people don't know that, if Nigeria brakes up today, the worst xenophobia will be witness in those divides.
Especially the North, you guys will have to kiss your business there goodbye and embrace very harsh reception if you are traveling their to set up a business.
Nigeria Delta Republic and oduduwa Republic will be welcomed up north than biafera

70% of those cars are heading to Lagos.

Also, school resumes tomorrow. More traffic for Lagosians cry

Anyway, welcome back my Igbo brothers. We miss you guys
And we miss you too bro��
There is a miscommunication and misrepresentation about the Igbo people,we have no problems with anyone we do our best to abide the the rules of anywhere we find ourselves,we just want to do our Business and relate socioeconomically with all and sundry,forgive us if we sometimes have an ego,but you must always understand that we work,bro we really do hustle.
To do nwa boy for 6years no be beans ooo.

That was the reason the British told Nigeria government never to let go of the igbo no matter what. If not for the igbos Nigeria will be as ordinary as Benin republic.

Nigeria government knows why they hate to hear that name Biafra so much with passion.

Because they know igbos are the blood flowing in Nigeria, making the country viable.
And the same Igbos can't make their own region viable? Delusional.

Every year it’s same story but neither the federal nor regional governments have taken initiative to expand the roads or create alternate routes in order to make life slightly better for their citizens!

the space in south east is too small to contain them. You now agree with buhari that they are just a dot in the circle? Agitation for brafra is not from their heart cos they know they cannot survive without other regions. So stop biting the hands that feed and accommodate you

No go board bus or car for upper iweka, especially chiemezie motors, those guys are very wicked.

ipobcannibals:
You are confusing yourself. Let me help you put things better: China is a country and Chinese folks are going to other countries to do their financial/business exploits. This you can equate with Igbos, who are Nigerians going to do thesame outside of Nigeria to other countries, like Ghana, Gambia, Ivory Coast e.t.c.

Now, what the OP is saying here is, Igbo can achieve their Biafra by remaining in the SE and those outside of the SE can leave other parts of Nigeria and join those already there and achieve their Biafra.
Now after you’ve gotten your Biafra, you can then do what the Chinese are doing as Biafrans and do your business/financial exploits in Nigeria and other countries as Biafrans. For now, your focus should be keeping those that left other regions for Xmas there and encouraging others outside of Igboland to join them.
Perhaps after you’ve achieved Biafra, you can then be amongst the world’s most wealthiest nations, like China, USA, Germany and co.
So all Igbos going back to Igbo land will automatically achieve Biafra?
How daft of you.
