God Bless Lower Niger
God Bless My People

This is beyond protection seeking, so swerve.

I wish you all the best.

I don't know why some people are worried about us like they care. We don't nEed outsiders to tell us what we want. We shall decide for ourselves and live with the consequences of our decision.

Dear Comrade, it is really so funny!
They always remind us how life will be difficult for us if we leave Nigeria, but they have failed to tell us how easy we are having it now.

Is it love or what?

I tire oo

barcanista:
He is NOT!

I know, I wanted to answer and also tell me what makes him so sure that the people will say no.
I can feel their pain anyway.

If it is love they will be pushing for system restructuring.

“They tell us, sir, that we are weak; unable to cope with so formidable an adversary. But when shall we be stronger? Will it be the next week, or the next year? Will it be when we are totally disarmed, and when a British guard shall be stationed in every house? Shall we gather strength by irresolution and inaction? Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying supinely on our backs and hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot? Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.”
― Patrick Henry

“These are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their county; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny like hell is not easily conquered yet we have this consolation with us, the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value.
Tom Paine

They want the status quo:
1. our people are killed like animals and no body is punished.
2. somebody from Kano has oil well in Rivers State and the man who owns the land is homeless.
3. our children who score 69% are denied admission into Federal Schools while those who scored 1% are admitted.
4. We win election, they kill us, they win and there is peace.

Enough!

I know people like that. They always flood threads like this

Here is the website of the Lower Niger Congress.

The Unity is real!

The better wine is yet to come.

I don't care if we answer Biafra, I don't care if we answer Lower Niger, I don't care if we have Biafra side by side with Niger Delta Republic.
What I just want is FREEDOM from a "country" created by slave traders.

you have my voice bro, shout it to them that they may hear,it is very clear, even to a blind man that NIGERIA is not working. Ss Se is a fraud,it is even geograficall wrong.

People need information, please help create platforms in our local languages, so our people must know what is happening. This day, Vanguard and Guardian have all failed us. We must never allow outsiders define what is news for us anymore.

That is my pain! Some of them assume that we are a conquered territory. I don't even see why they are gittery because nobody has called for war against anybody. We are only exercising our natural right to decide for ourselves.

Town hall meetings will be adopted.

They seethe calls for us to leave Nigeria as calls for war.

They are so quick to remind us of 1967.
Funny enough, this is 2015.

Its better Biafra is separated from Niger Delta republic, I want Biafra for all Igbos and open for non Igbos to join and leave at their own volition.

I don't like Lower Niger bullshit, it has racial undertone, like underdeveloped, third world countries and sub sahara africa.

Biafra is my choice

[/s]You are better than this.
It will be "easier" for you people to have your 'Biafra' from LNR(if at the end of the day,you ain't comfortable with LNR),than it would be,from Nigeria.
Same applicable to my people.
But i doubt it that any component part of LNR,would want out,because,a thorough look,was taken on the problems of Nigeria,and a fortifide constitutional template was drafted,to kill any form of "Nigerian Disease" in her,hence,we are 99.999...% sure of peace,unity,progress,patriotism,love,etc.
But i know your anger/fear i.e the previous mentality of some of our people,towards you igbos as was ably engineered by Yoruba media propaganda/war.I can boldly tell you now that,those ill perceptions,are gone and gone for good,and that, their is common saying among our people now,which is,"We knows better now".
You might also not be comfortable with the name,if truth,what makes you think that after we might achieved our goal,that we cant subject the change of name,to referrendum,and do justice to it.WE ARE MOSTLY DEMOCRATS REMEMBER?.

Welcome development, this is the way forward.

socialmediaman:
The Igbos themselves hardly agree on this secession issue because this is clearly a self centered ambition. The issues that led to the declaration of the Biafra in the first place to an extent are being managed, though not completely resolved, fueled by corruption in my opinion. Good governance to me will help to resolve many of the underlying ethnic Differences and distrust.

These Biafra or Lower Niger guys are not being realistic, do they know the number of Igbos living and working in many parts of Nigeria including the FG? Where is the commerce and industry in the south east to cater for persons that might be affected by this move?

This is a media child's play if you ask me

As much as I know, I wont lift a sword to kill a soul.
I prefer to die in the hands of an ijaw man (which I know wont happen) over some disputes than to die in the hands of a Jihardists just because I say NO to some primitive teachings.

No need for gloves comrade.

We should spare our energy for what lies ahead.
There is much work to be done.

And what has your post got to do with we not beng part of Nigeria?
If we become a country of thieves, so be it,
I dont see how it bothers you.

LubricatingOil:


If you are truly an Ijaw man, not the pseudo abians like patience Jonathan claiming Okrika then start by lifting land sale embargo placed on ibos in several communities across niger delta or return Diobu back to ibos "The abandoned" properties.

The Ijaws I know, most of whom I've lived with don't cry about Jonathan's loss like the ibos. Every morning I listened to Nigeria info in portharcourt, the ibos are the ones always making tribalistic comments against others. They are the ones always crying blue murder and promising brime stone and fire.

Most Ijaws I know are happy that Jonathan is out, if so why are the ibos crying more than the bereaved?
Shall we talk about the Ikwerres? Those ones don't even want to hear anything ibos.

As cosmopolitan as portharcourt is, there's no single known elected official of ibo origin like the way we have in Lagos.

[/s]This your use.less divisive old tactics isnt working anymore.we have resolved to move as one people.
We have already started to address our problems which ignorance and people like you instigated.it will be short,medium,and long term measures.we will correct all.
BTW,thats not worst than the crimes/injustice of Nigeria against Igbos,and of late,against ijaws.my people and other groups wont wait to recieve same.so,GO TO HE.LL.

Can this movement succeed without the support of the inhabitants of the territory? Many of them don't trust your intentions, they don't trust the leaders, they just want good governance, not familiar occupation by own people

And hw many inhabitants did you know that is nt interested in the movement

A thousand? half of a million?
Hw many

All this because Jonathan lost the election?

Make una do con de go sef..

Make una con de go oo.. Make una con de go.

It haf do!! Waf taya for una hypocrisy and crying.. Make una tell una reps



On a more serious note tho. All these SS/SE nonsense. Don't you guys have reps? Can't your elected reps/senators move a motion in the house? Can't they try to do something about this? By getting your reps, governors and senators involved in your open call for secession, you'll give your movement the needed legitimacy!

So why all these my belle o my head o noise?
Awon afoju oshi!!

I don't like this idea of Lower congress crap.

It's either Biafra or not.

And ijos and other minority ethnic groups of the former Eastern region should stay on their own.

We don't want treacherous people in our midst.

What's sensible about his comment?

Our problem is that we're easily deluded.

If Ojukwu was alive, he'd never support us to co-habit with these treacherous Ijos and other minorities.

Obviously, these people don't even want us and yet we keep mentioning them.

Jeez!, I hate this.
