How Do We Break Up Nigeria Peacefully Because It Is Not Working by Dapaboy: 2:47pm On Oct 18, 2015
Hi house
Your contribution is needed on how we can peacefully break up Nigeria.
Arewa, Biafra, Oodua will be way better on their own. Think of the gains of reviving Agriculture in all these places eg groundnut, cocoa, palm oil respectively for a start.
How do we spread our debt to the new nation thus created.
How do we share the assets. Eg asset found in a particular zone automatically belong to them eg Kaduna refineries etc
How do we deal with people who have already acquired properties and businesses, but will now no longer be a citizen of the place where does acquisition are located, using international law as guidance.
At least most of my friends in America are not yet American citizens but have acquired lots of properties in America.

Please discuss.

The problem with Nigeria is not tribalism or religious sentiments. These are only symptoms of a bigger problem which is bad political leadership. Dnt be deceived and stop wasting ur time. Why do the igbos want liberation now? Ask urself questions. This politicians dnt think of tribalism wen they are looting. Instead they connive 2geda and loot our funds. Buy mansions, send their kids oversees for holidays and schools. Wen they cant loot as b4 they start shout nigeria hates igbos. Only the gullible ones will die for any politician. How have they helped ur lives. Do they pay ur bills. All we need is a government that cares about the citizens.

By convincing buhari with the help of Senate and other arms of government.
Then a summit will be held where benefits, terms and condition should be discussed.
Understanding should be AT optimum.
I think that's my contribution...
If there is any other i
Will do same here.

Thanks for your contribution but don't you think our differences is a huge distraction.
Instead of asking tough questions to our leaders, we are still debating their ethnicity.

Involve a third party, wat ever the peaceful means chosen will be accepted by Biafra except territory compromise. If all the debts will be left for Biafrans, no problem. I believe with time, we will clear the debts from servicing it little by little. Diasporans can even take that as their duty. The most important thing is to get this country divided.

Having a 'loose federation' with resource control would certainly reduce the agitation of some for secession.

A loose federation is only possible in a nation or with nations who have things in common
This 2 situations are not and cannot be obtainable within the contrapment called Nigeria
So this option is not attainable
Remember
Nigeria is not a nation
Also the nations within nigeria do not have anything in common
So
This is certainly not POSSIBLE

Do you think anyone can rally all ethnic groups against the politicians. If you come out today to protest against a thiieving hausa/ fulani president, you think the almajiris with AK-47s won't be unleashed on you. Keep blaming the unblammable. The problem of your country is fundamental, leprous feudalists who should't be allowed near democrating settings hijack the system and say they are born to rule you. and you are blaming 'corruption'?. Who did you lend your brain?

After 55 years of existence;
No electricity, even very poor African countries now provide better electricity than Nigeria. If you think I'm lying please travel around.

The roads are a joke. We have all the material and human resources to create autobahn all over the country. No single foreign currency needed.

The hospitals are laughable. No single foreign currency needed to fix them because the human resources are there. Why are we not doing that?

The schools are bad.
What does it take to train people to standard, to build edifices as schools. Last time I checked we have all the cement to do that.

I could go on

We never ever came together as Nigerians. We were all forced to become Nigerians at gunpoint by Lord Lugard. When Ojukwu met Gowon in Aburi, Ojukwu told Gowon that the only way Nigeria could move foward was a 'loose federation' ( a confederaion) of the existing 4 regions. Gowon agreed and signed the agreement with Ojukwu in front of the president of Ghana, General Ankrah. Gowon and his northern click returned to Nigeria and realised that the Document they signed made it impossible to implement "Born to rule". That's why Gowon reneged on the gentlemans agreement he signed in Ghana, abolished the regions, created States and brought unitary rule which left Ojukwu no choice but to declare Biafra. From then till now, Nigeria has not progressed even an inch. We should hold a referendum so we all can go back administering ourselves as we did before Lugard came. Nigeria has been nothing but a disastrous British experiment

God bless Biafra

I dnt blame you. You are ignorant. If u like u can go and die for any politician. All nnamdi kanu needs to keep quiet is money. Use ur brain. U dnt understand nigerian politics. Its not abt tribalism. Its more abt selfish interest. Igbos shud stop wailing. Jonathan did barely nothing for them. Igbos need to unite themselves and also produce respectable leaders. Until then i dnt see polical leadership coming to d igbos

Ur seperation wrongly stated.

Always remember to remove Niger Delta from ur Biafra. Even in ur sleep or dream always seperate it.

Please stop generalising when it comes to the Igbos. Not everyone reasons like Nnamdi Kanu. And for your information, Igbo are not bereft of credible leadership. The problem is with the lopsided Nigeria system that kill every potential goodwill of a leader. Nigeria is what it is today because it has not fully allowed itself to be ruled by an Igboman - this is one of the reason many IPOB youths are agitating for Biafra.

The agitation for the restoration of Biafra is not about an organisation like IPoB or it's leader
It is about correcting a correctable fraudulent mistake
It is about restoring things back to their original default setting
All other issues like marginalisation, ethnic conflict etc are just the symptoms and not the real course of the problem
If the fraudulent mistake is not corrected the problems will persist and the people will keep going round in circles

Its only the igbos that are agitating for secession. War is not a good thing. Peace is always the best. I dnt think the igbos shud secede yet. Instead they shud focus on certain issues first. Firstly they shud focus on breeding good and reputable leaders. Second, they shud concentrate on improving the infrastructure of the SE region. Thirdly , the igbo leaders shud unite and restructure their leadership. In that way it would be easier for the igbos to secede peacefully. Igbos have the potential to be a great nation but bad leadership is limiting them . Even if the igbos shud secede, they will be under the leadership of worst men. Igbos have good and competent leaders but they are shying away from politics. Another delimiting factor is lack of unity amongst the igbo. Naturally, an enugu man would never want an anambra man to lead him and so on. Unlike the hausa and yorubas who have a well structured leadership pyramid. Igbo shud unite themselves first and see themselves as one. Finally nobodys blood is worth the life of Nigerian politicians. They are all after money and selfish gains.

It is cowards who want to break Nigeria. The only problem with Nigeria is corrupt leadership. It is a human problem not one of geography or administrative scope.
You cannot say because you failed JAMB they should close all universities. That is as ridiculous as saying you want to break Nigeria because it is not working.
