@barcanista I think its about time our government apply some technical idea on all this population buhuhaha. We suppose to know in exact the number of people from Nigeria,working in Nigeria,Unemployed,Schooling,Graduates,Politicians,Tax payers,business people,artisans,entertainers,etc. Everything about everybody in or from Nigeria in detail. Like in west,immediately one is born the immigration will be contacted to collect the finger prints. Their GoVernment Knows of every single soul living or visiting their country. another thing is that government can not just take tax payers money to develop unemployed without developing and giving the working class a conducive environment. We(Southern) are working,the northern eating,all in the name of population.Monkey dey work.........
Change won't come until we stop counting in estimates,but in accuracy. The Igbos are not proud of their population but of their achievements in life,with or without any help from government. 1million illiterates put together is = 1 learned son of the soil. 2million poors is = 1 Nnewi business man. That how i check it.lol

i am sure you concur with his point behind the thread

i am sure you are aware that there is political inequality in Nigeria

i am sure you are know that the majority are marginalising the minority in Nigeria

i am sure you know that the Igbos are part of the majority .... Why are the Igbos marginalisng the minority? Why?

The igbos should stop marginalising us

Firefire:
Nigeria is a FRAUD!

It is a wise man who said that there is no greater inequality than the equal treatment of unequal's. - Felix Frankfurter

eCollynzo:
So what is your opinion on quota system that always comes to play whe merit doesn't suit the northerners? You see who they are calling for it to be applied even in a scholarship scheme?

barcanista:
Even the Igbos that are part of the majority is heavily MARGINALISED. In fact, it is the most marginalised. So what are you saying?

pazeinza:
In the first republic, the ibos had the first president of Nigeria

in the second republic, the ibos has the vice president

in the fourth republic, the ibos have had 5 senate presidents, they currently have the SGF, deputy senate president, deputy speaker, several ministers, DG's, perm secs etc.


THE SHUWA ARABS HAVENT BEEN GIVEN ANY ANY ANY ANY POLITICAL POST IN NIGERIA EITHER BY APPOINTMENT, ELECTION, OR SELECTION.

NIGERIA SHOULD STOP MARGINALISING THE SHUWA ARABS. ENOUGH OF POLITICAL INEQUALITY IN NIGERIA

barcanista:
First Republic- Ceremonial President without Executive Power.

Second Republic- A Spare tire office aka VP.

As for the SP, Perm Secs etc, you mean ONLY Igbos filled it? All those are secondary appointment. I don't care who becomes SP or SGF. The fundamental is equal representation in the parliament. You can keep other positions

obi4eze:

barcanista: you sound pathetic. Ojukwu(of cursed memory) ran away frm battle after Adekunle had taught him the lessons of his life. His Deputy, Useless Effiong surrendered and you are saying that it was planned? Hahahaah
You should be ashamed that Coward Ojukwu was ashamed of his own people, hence he couldn't invest in the East nor build properties there. Coward Ojukwu looted the treasury as Eastern Governor while you ppl suffer. He(Ojukokoro) contested for and lost ALL elections on his own turf to even a Yorubaman(Obj) and Fulaniman (Yaradua). He even lost WOEFULLY in his Senate bid to a Newbie in Nnewi. Even today, an Ijawman in the person of Goodluck Jonathan is considered the MESSIAH and GOD of the Igbos over any Iboman. That same Ijawman will always hold Adekunle in highest esteem.
Adekunle on the otherhand may not by RICH but his reputation as a greatman and heroics lives with him and after him. Today, we can't talk of the success of the Nigerian Army over Biafran secessionist without Adekunle name. His generation shall be proud.

See the turncoat /bigot who is now speaking in favour of the Igbos. Are you our mouthpiece? Did we at anytime complain to you? What should be the most important thing is performance and merit in governance.

pazeinza:
either ceremonial or unceremonial
either by election or selection, the fact still remains that the ibos nay the hausas and yoruba and to a fair extent the ijaws, have all be reckoned with in the political equation in Nigeria.

When is it going to be the turn of the Baccham, Kemberi, Gbagyi, Bassa, Koma etc. All these people are all Nigerians too.

Fyi, the Shuwa arabs havent gotten any senatorial/legislative seat in the history of nigeria

obailala:
Did Barcanista actually spew that rubbish you quoted above??... I just noticed he is invading the Nairaland archives deleting every single insulting post he made against Igbos when he was in the APC. Now the same BArcanista for petty pecuniary gains is now trying to argue for Igbos. How despicable!

mandarin:
Barrcanista,you raised a very salient issue in Nigeria and I want to state the following
1. I've always advocated for autonomous regional government as a means of eliminating perceived inequalities in Nigera.the earlier the better.
2. I dont believe in the 170million touted population of Nigeria.may be we can be around 130million now
3. The single largest ethnic group in Nigeria is yoruba followed by hausa and igbo.the concept of fulani was a joker used in inflating northern populations.
4. The political and economic arrangements that will reduce population and local administrative to zero is regionalism coupled with at least 50% of all resources and levies which will graduate to 80% in 15 years will help Nigeria move forward
That's my take.

MizMyColi:
Now I envy Barcanista.

His threads keep making frontapage.

Lalasticlala, Obinoscopy...
This is unfair

OrlandoOwoh:
. For your information, Hausa/Fulani is not the only ethnic group in Nigeria.

MizMyColi:

Bants:
How many states represent the igbos, yorubas and hausas then you will understand why the hausas rule Nigeria

barcanista:
Well, I think it will be good if we address these fundamental issues
