Saro talks about those that sets us up, into fighting each other, they stoke Igbophobic utterances, "Igbos want your oil, but we have come to liberate you", they say, but when we are both fighting each other, they both sneak in and take the treasure( black gold) in our house, to build up their own cities, in the name of capital cities. Already, some of them are already in this thread, going crazy about the SS/SE union, Saro called them the monsters! s! Have you forgotten So soon My brother From the gold coast! , Aaa! Why, Brother, can’t you see? The monsters come They come to us Call us each to one side And say: I set a prize Here is a string of blades Blunt blades, you can see Only wrap them Around your ankles Around your wrists Around your fist And fight your brother! You are right But he is wrong I set a prize Fight! And we fight each other And while we are cut up In the fight The monsters go out Stealthily Like a jesting ripple at sea And carter away The wealth in our house And it occurs again Another time They ante up butchery prizes And we fight and wound Why, why, why? Brother mine! Why do we fight! 7 Likes |

Saro calling for reconciliation and bond strengthening. Come, Let us smash The mirror Standing in the centre Of the arena Displaying our past Furiously, Let us demolish The walls separating us Let us smash to pieces The black pot Of our past We do not want Our differences Reflected in them We do not want To remember The scene yesterday Between us Come now, Let us tie again The string of brotherhood And stand As one people 4 Likes 1 Share |

Saro emphasizes the need for us to identify the "monsters" and eliminate them. Even on NL here, we have the monsters amongst us, they pose as Igbos or as Niger deltans and try as much as possible to give us more reasons why we shouldnt unite, they try as much as possible to stoke past grievances between us.Saro many years ago, was aware of their existence, he learnt from experience. Where is he That says We must fight With irons and metals; Where is he That stirs up The water of anger In our youth Bring him out quickly And we will banish him Out of our sight Out of our filthily Decrepit homestead Out of this land We want oneness We want victory We want one fist! 10 Likes 2 Shares |

joeyfire:They know that anything that looks like integration of SS and SE is gonna be a big blow to Nigeria. Hence they've bn doing everything possible to make sure we're divided while milking Nigeria dry This election is an eye opener. A blessing in disguise if u ask me It exposes the hypocrisy of some regions in Nigeria 1 Like 1 Share |

So, there we have it. OP, your idea of SS/SE unity is not a new one, Saro many years ago, with the advantage of hindsight and experience, having once been a rabid Igbophobic person himself, came to the realization that SE/SS unity is the only way, both regions can free themselves from this colonial entrapment. His realizations remain true, even until this moment! I want an Igbo republic, you want a Niger delta republic, fine and cool, we work together, and split when we are out of the Zoo. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Me and my idealistic self. Personally I see a politically unified Eastern region as one which can best protect the cultural values of the people therein, and secure their economic future. What else do I want....nothing. [img]http://4.bp..com/_jeBv7EEofYQ/TPa3Zo0VtOI/AAAAAAAAAMg/FONrWX1hGnE/s1600/Nsibidi%2Bsentence.png[/img] http://nsibiri..co.uk/p/mission.html Culture -Language: A union that supports people like the guy responsible for this script, GIN, which can be used for languages such as Efik, Ibibio, Ejagham, Igbo, etc. China and Japan have shown how unifying a writing system understood by different language groups can be, and what unity as a people can achieve. Economy - Laws: An Eastern union is obviously best placed to demand for fair laws at the national level that promote it's economic growth, such as laws regarding resource control over resources like oil, natural gas, coal, limestone, uranium, and iron ore (how wonderful..we have in the SS/SE the Major resources needed for an industrialized economy). Those for power, concrete, steel, chemicals etc.) Economy - Economic security: An Eastern union is best placed to compete with other regions of West Africa and secure it's economic future, because as a political block it can pool together it's resources to create a highly needed "sane space" in the West Africa sub-region. Better than that which attains in Lagos or Accra, where transportation, affordable power, security, housing, and education would not be an issue. Already we have IPPs in Abia, Rivers state, and Akwa Ibom, capable of powering their surrounding cities, yet there is little political will to bring them fully online. All this while in Nigeria, big yes. Still, the Eastern region as a block has comparative advantage in major economic goods over almost any other place in the West African sub region, and one Nigeria should not stop it from competing fairly. So i'm all for UNITY. 2 Likes |

the East has always been the most peaceful part of Nigeria since before the founding of Nigeria. the idea will stick no matter what the naysayers say or do. we are naturally one -complete and complementary of one another in Eastern Nigeria. you will never hear of rancor between tribes in the east the only political violence you see there is the one imported by "foreign" parties with foreign mindset and culture... like APC. sai one East! 5 Likes |

we don't even need to make much effort at uniting our goals, because the rest of the country has and would always try to treat us like second class citizens in Nigeria, even after feeding them with our resources -human and natural. they kicked our brother to the curb as if he is a usurper to the office. they couldn't find any good in him, and never gave him rest for nearly 6 years, even after he developed their lands better than the east. they hounded and shouted him out of office! and when we complain they call us sentimental. when obasanjo was there they supported him fully for 8 whole years, and it was not sentimental. anyway, God is using Jonathan's plight to unite us in ways that will change our destiny for the better. let me make prediction now: they will do everything possible to re-divide us again by giving a juicy appointment to one of us. but we will never forget what they did to jona. never. 6 Likes 1 Share |

barcanista:Barcanista GOD Bless you for this thread, I know an not suppose to be here making comments citing am not from Eastern region (SS/SE). But am tempted to. Hip praises on u for u/standing not to preach violence to make the entity called Nigeria u/stand the sacrifice the region has been making. I also Hope and pray that the incoming gov't shows purposeful leadership as promised and carry all regions along. One sharp contrast we do have Barcanista is u believe Rivers state governor betrayed the region but me one other hand seem to think his goin to be an icon in that region. Am not trying create an argument but simply try to point out that we may disagree on a lot of issues but let's always have our people in mind and Nigeria at heart. Let's try to always pray for our leaders both past and present. They did their best. GOD Bless GEJ and GMB. GOD Bless our past leaders alive. GOD Bless us all as Nigerian's and GOD Bless Nigeria. Thank you and stay Blessed. 1 Like 1 Share |

aresa: Busted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know u na. No be you again? U always claim to be from different regions in Nigeria cos u're everly mischievous. Now you want us to believe you're a Midwesterner to cause division here. Below is your recent post where u claimed to be from Lagos aresa: Thats why they say 'a liar should have good memory' Honey get a job and pls don't come back to this thread. Don't let me expose you further by giving different topics where U've claimed different regions before. The good thing is even if u go back and edit, one or two persons must have quoted your ass before. So Just quietly take your shameless self and exit this thread without looking back. And Close the door behind you. Thanks 5 Likes 2 Shares |
