You mean like your myopic and greedy leaders sold us all to the a.bo.kis n Independence Day just to spite us.

Your leaders repeated the same feat in the second republic.

It is a undisputable FACT that in the history of this country, the ibos have always aligned with the north whilst Yorubas are mostly in the opposition.

When statement that Senator Ali Ndume made that has been overlooked by many is this. It is quiet worrisome that u too, op didn't realise it.... He said.. The minority will always have their say but the majority will have their way...... Now do the maths... South East, West and South combined can not pull a string above the north but in national assembly and the States. Even if the whole south votes en block they will still fail.. When south West worked out it was so Lilliputian to affect the parley so it went on as u said.. So until the south and North are made equal the owl will still hoot at the back door.

I read with great joys that the Report of the 2014 National Confab of has been rejected by the Norther Leaders.

Stake holders in Nigeria who were not blinded by emotions during the heat up of the confab can recall that the North (Islamic North), castigated the confab because they were not in charge of it.

One of their own even threatened that his people will pull out of Nigeria and join his kindreds in Cameroun.

Well, the confab went ahead and the North "lost" much ground. This report if implemented will weaken the centre. A situation the North does not want to hear.


Jonathan was myopic. He thought he could fix Nigeria. He thought he could bring some change. He thought he is a magician or a super man who can mix oil and water. I keep asking, what do we have in common with the Muhammadan emirates of the North?


The north owns Nigeria! The north has spoken and it is binding to us all.
The rest are slaves! The north has rejected the confab report and that is the end of it all.
It was also the north that rejected the Aburi accord and that was the end it.

Assuming it is the South East that rejected the confab report will it be the end?
If it is the South West or the Niger Delta that rejected the report, will it make any difference.

OBJ called for a constitutional conference, towards the end, Niger Delta walked out. The dinner went on as if northing happened.

When the North barks, Nigeria quake. I hail the north. Bravo!

However, let me state clearly that the days of ignorance and fear are over.
We, the peoples of the Biafra want out of this fraud.

The rejection of the report is good for our course.
That is why hail the North for the rejection.
A big Thumbs UP to able Northern Leaders for living up to our expectations.
To those of us who are grounded in the psychology of Nigeria and why her fate belongs to history, the rejection did not come as a surprise.

Cheers to you all.

Your point is noted, bur.....

We are talking about a confab that was attended by all.
Agreements were reached and resolutions taken.
It was a conference where all had their say, and the north could not have her way.

Power has gone back to the north, and the north has rejected the confab report.
It is not about voting power.
It is about the fact that the north can trample on the rest of Nigeria and nothin happens.

I guess u have a different history book from the one I read... The the alignment u so said is sad that u didn't know the come about. The coalition of NCNC with Npc was to bypass a constitutional impasse when Npc couldn't not form a national government. The Western leaders have always wanted to align with their brothers the Igbos.. Awolowo had a coalition with NCNC and formed a party at the centre.. UPGA. while Akintola, whose blood I think runs in ur vein, chose the north and betrayed his brother Awo to ring the election to favour his northern imperialist.

NCNC could have aligned with AG to form govt at the centre but hell no, the ibos chose to play second fiddle to the abo.k.is who barely 7 years before slaughtered them like 'roaches in Jos. However, we Yorubas didn't call them slaves to the northerners instead we took our loss like a man and went into the opposition.

I presume you must read from the same jaundiced book you got your knowledge from, that in the second republic there was also a "constitutional impasse" which compelled the ibos to yet again, like a true born slave, aligned with the same northerners who barely a decade earlier had tried to annihilate them all, in our civil war. I don' t recollect any Yoruba calling ibos, "ab.o.ki' slaves" o, rather we took our loss in tow and once again went into the opposition.

"We brought Jonathan into power unfortunately he has been an utter let-down. It has nothing to do with payback time".

This is a misrepresentation of fact. Facts and figures show that Yorubas were inconsequential in the rise of GEJ to power in Nigeria.https://www.nairaland.com/2689084/yorubas-fought-north-make-goodluck/4

Without Yoruba votes, GEJ would have still emerged president in 2011.

So, how exactly did Yorubas bring him to power ?

T8ksy:
But where were you guys when Gej was tied to Turai yar adua's kitchen? Too scared to confront your abo.k.i masters, I presume.

bro which of the second Republic re u talking of.. Cos the only second Republic nigeria ever had was that of 1979 which was contested by 5parties.NpN, Npp, GNPp upp and prp. And if I read well NPN won the election electing Shagari. Brother, what seemed as a coalition to you WAS never a coalition, it was called National government at the centre. The Igbos had their candidate in Npp yoruba flouted Upp. So where did u have a coalition government. For the sake of these little ones, do not misrepresent facts for posterity sake pls... Igbos NEVER WILLING had coalition with the north aside that of 1960. It was rather Awo who aligned with Gowon to anihiliatd the Igbos during the civil war for a paltry office.
