author=xtrorse post=39898075] Mis information will only thrive when people like us are dead, so each time you log on to Nairaland be weary of some usernames that will bury your lies. Come to think of this - aside Lagos a former federal capital territory, which SW city is better developed than those in SE?You need to define development, South east has a robust economy no doubt but I ask you, is it not what you are about to destroy with this agitation, what was left of the SE in 1970 after the first agitation? is that what you really want? When I visit the SE, I see a lot of individual efforts more than I see collective government responsibility being fulfilled, is that what you confuse for development? over 20yrs most places in Enugu rely on tankers for clean water unlike the 80's when the government provided water for everyone through the water board, such collective infrastructures are lacking in the whole of south east not just Enugu. Enugu and Anambra are the only SE states that can boast of good road network the rest are cesspits of varying degrees of gullies, from Abia to Ebonyi, so why are you confusing individual efforts with development? That you built your house and I build mine in not development but individual effort, when you start benefiting from Government/cooperative provided low cost houses with Govt/cooperative provided access roads, central sewage, incinerator, electricity and security only then will you feel you are developed, as we chat, one of the most expensive estates in the SE Ngozika estate in Awka lack these amenities that people elsewhere consider as basic yet you call that development, I disagree with you completely. Have you forgotten that soon after the civil war the wicked hypocrites connived and robbed Easterners of their hard earned money in banks and gave £20 to only those who could prove they had bank accounts?I am happy that Nnamdi Kanu did not succeed in twisting that part of our history, the Nigerian government won you in battle as such there are consequences in defeat, you now understand why I take out time from my busy schedule to enlighten people who are willing to learn on the consequences of their agitation, you don't go to battle and lose then expect your life to remain the same, there is agony in defeat you should know better, let me take you on a tour round the world to buttress this situation so you can go and enlighten those urchins that blocked my office yesterday. Japan today is not allowed to conscript their own soldiers beyond a particular number monitored by the united states who have repackaged the situation as an alliance yet by proxy undermining the sovereignty of Japan, do you have any idea how many military bases the US is maintaining in Japan? as at today, the US has 3 airforce bases (Kadena, Misowa and Yokota), 3 Army bases (camp zana, forte burtner and Tori station), 13 marine corps bases (courtney, fuji Gonsalves etc) and 4 Naval bases. Can you see clearly that Japan is Under US occupation militarily (what Nnamdi Kanu will call military bondage) never mind their level of development and accomplishments, do you think the Japanese will not want to return to the pre WW2 era when they had a military that could match the US, soldier to soldier, combat to combat? today they have lost that privilege thanks to their defeat at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Let me take you to South America, since Argentina was defeated in the Falkland conflict, the Argentine Government is denied of all the revenues accrual from that prosperous Island that originally belongs to them as a matter of fact, they are behind a territorial marker set by the British, Argentina MUST seek the permission of the British to use or Visit an Island that originally belonged to them that is the agony of defeat. Lets go to the Middle east, since Palestine never won Israel in any of their recent conflicts, West bank and Gaza strip has remained under perpetual occupation and subjugation, it is so bad that as little as food rations and medicines has to be approved by Israel before the people of Palestine will feed, that is the Agony of defeat. Let us go to Europe, I need not say much here but for the sake of enlightenment, below are the conditions given to the Germans after their WW1 defeat, the document is called, treaty of Versailles, Nnamdi Kanu doesn't know this much I suppose. 1) Germany had to accept the Blame for starting the war (Clause 231). This was vital because it provided the justification for harsh treatments 2) Germany had to pay £6,600 million (called Reparations) for the damage done during the war. 3) Germany was forbidden to have submarines or an air force. She could have a navy of only six battleships, and an Army of just 100,000 men. In addition, Germany was not allowed to place any troops in the Rhineland, the strip of land, 50 miles wide, next to France. 4). Germany lost Territory (land) in Europe (see map, below). Germany’s colonies were given to Britain and France. (Also, Germany was forbidden to join the League of Nations, or unite with Austria.) 5) SAAR coal fields was given to France to operate for 15yrs 6) Poland will be given a corridor into the Baltic cutting off East prussia from Germany 7) Posen a very rich farm land given to Poland Danzig will be owned by the League of Nations (our modern day United nations)9) Alsace Lorraine will be given to France free 10) Eupen and Malmedy will be given to Belgium free 11) North Shelswig given to Denmark free 12) Germany was not allowed to unite with Austria which leaves Germany as a tiny, land locked desolate piece of land You see young man, Nnamdi Kanu is feasting on the ignorance of most of you, can you compare what US did to Japan or what the League of Nations did to Germany with your 20 pounds saga? If Biafra was Japan, Imagine if Nigeria sends military administrators to rule over all the states in Biafra with military bases everywhere to ensure you guys don't cough, for your importation business and the likes, you must seek permission from Nigeria before you can do that, how would you feel? japan has lived through that agony for over 50yrs. If Germany was Biafra, can you imagine Half of Biafra land will be seeded to Cameroon and the rest given to Benin Republic, how would you feel? Germany lived through that between 1914-1948, matter of fact the wall of Berlin actually fell in 1991, can you extrapolate the agony of the Germans in such situation? that is the Agony of defeat, in your case you were given 20pounds and you are complaining, bros, it could have been worse, Nnamdi Kanu knowing that you have no idea the terms of the Versailles treaty, sold you the 20pounds saga and you hated Nigeria for it, that is what propaganda does to minds that are not enlightened. I have written here severally that Nigeria will take all your properties in Nigeria if you get Biafra, a lot of people don't believe me do you know why, because they are not enlightened enough to read the land use act of 1978. That law gives Nigeria the legal Justification to do that and not even United Nations will fault that, be careful what you wish for because very few of you can actually see the end of your Biafra Journey. Instead of developing the Eastern region after the war subsequent evil governments diverted Gowon’s 3Rs to your regions for rapid development while neglecting and under-developing the Eastern region.You claim Igbos are the most developed yet you beg for development again, are you not speaking from the two compasses of your mouth? Instead of brooding about who will develop you, why wont Igbos synergize to form a common political front that will project the Igbo interest beyond umbrages? afterall, Nnamdi Azikiwe and Nwafor orizu were all igbos who operated at the highest level of governance in Nigeria, go back to that formula and you will get what you deserve, how do you expect a government you are rebelling against to help you? How many votes did you give to Buhari to help you? Jonathan a Biafran (by Nnamdi Kanu's conjecture) you supported fully, what did he do to develop you? If your own brother can not develop you, is it anarchy you will use to get your enemy to develop you? at what point will Igbos realize that Jonathan was a failed project, dust themselves up and re strategize on how to define their interest around APC? Pushing for Biafra will be both political and geographical suicide, don't say I did not warn you guys!! |

Super1Star:l totally agree with you on this. Going regional is the best first step then productivity will now been seen in a different light. A region that is not keen on developing its own human capital will have itself to blame! You can't stubbornly stick to child marriages and still expect other regions to be supplying you female doctors and nurses. When there is dearth in female medical practitioners and they have to pay through their nose to attract these personnel to their regions they would be forced to rethink their ways! We should reach out to other regions and the certainty of achieving our aim will be much higher. |

londoner:Nigeria respects igbo, the problems of the igbo is with the igbo. We all know the igbo masses hate the other tribe so how can we trust an igbo leader? We all know of the arrogance and insults smeared in our faces, how come you expect to be respected. If the igbo can look within and change these things we will all be fine, the yorubas dont have time to be witch hunting, but we will protect ourselves from someone who is perceived as an enemy. You call a whole group of people betrayers, cowards, dirty, animals, monkeys and baboons living in the zoo, saying you will kill all, you own our land and you expect some sort of quiet or support of any igbo aims, anyone who doesnt resist disrespect has a mental problem. If there will be any support for igbos in this country and in the near future, it will be as a result of them changing their hateful ways without that, no igbo man will ever smell great political power to make profound change for his people. |

Feraz:Lmao @ pro-Nigerian. Pro-what again? I'm pro-black and pro-Africa. I've never been pro-Nigerian, apart from the fact that I support Super Eagles and other Nigerian sports. Heck, I got my first Nigerian passport in 2010 and that was after paying some obese man some loose change. And I doubt I'll renew it cos it's useless apart from when travelling to Nigeria. ![]() I'm Yoruba. I agree that Nigeria is a zoo and that the country is doomed, hence I understand the revolutionary idea behind Biafra. Nigeria wasn't created for black folks to thrive - it was a British experiment to bring protectorates together for easy/central administration for exploitation. So why should black folks be the ones to make an experiment that wasn't meant to be work? We just can't stay keeping the dark legacies of colonialism alive, while destroying our own future. We're better off as neigbhours. |

chrisbaba1:Nigeria does not respect the Igbo as a tribe. Individuals maybe but not on a tribal level. If Igbos are percieved as an enemy, I assume you are a supporter of Biafra. Let them go then if they are never to be in a position of power and are hated. Why not support their leaving then? Igbos don't hate all other tribes. |

londoner:Bought from whom? Who did they made the payment to? They only relocated the inhabitants. IT was very easy for FG to do that because of the minute population of the Gwaris. If they take FG to court, it does not dispute the fact that the land is their forefathers land and by extension theirs. Believe the FCT nonsense and build there at your peril. |

EUROBOMBER Let me ask you a few questions. Let's say, an Igbo becomes the president of Nigeria, and everyone under him are Igbos, how will that change the lives of the poor Igbos folks scattered all over Nigeria, struggling to survive? How did OBJ ruling change the lives of poor Yoruba folks? Northerners have ruled Nigeria since forever, and are back there now, how has that changed the lives of the dirt poor and illiterate Northerners? GEJ just finished his tenure - how did that change the lives of folks from his village? |

Super1Star:we are too quick to shout roads without thinking of other areas. Ebonyi is one of the states in nigeria that lack federal presence in all aspects especially education, and the person you called otuoke master was the one that recognised how important education is and how the state has been found wanting in this area he built a standard federal university in the state. I could remember when i was living with my grand mother at the earliest stage my life in afikpo, she was a rice farmer. she will tell me there are sharing fertilizer lets go get some fertilizer... After standing for hours we normally return with very little fertilizer which will not be enough to cultivate for even 1/100 of her farm. But now i don't think many of these farmers complain much or stand that much to get such little amount of fertilizer again. Then we come to power, tell me was there much functional power installation and infrastructure including power grids in the east? Am not saying it is at its best but there was a significant presence of federal govt in this area or do you disprove that. Lets talk about roads visually all major federal roads in SE/SS Was approved by him for reconstruction. |

Super1Star:Please read up on the history of Abuja. You can read up on Altai Suleiman Bara and the Emirate council that gave the land to FG for the Federal Capital Territory. Abuja was also created by decree. Does it mean there are no indigenous people? No, but Abuja is now Federal Territory. I do feel the FG need to do more than they have done so far for the indigenous people though. |

Many of you insulting the igbo leaders should better shut it. You think it is easy to develop a state from the ruins of civil war to whatever it is at the moment? though these leaders have ate money one way or the other but you will not blame them most of the time. you want anambra state to be economical viable like lagos state when the state cannot boast of more than 1.2billion naira per month from the federal purse, what can you do with such amount of money? anambra state's earning cannot encourage world bank to lend her money because they are not sure if they will be able to pay back. some of you even went ahead to insult igbo businessmen; is it your money? do you have any right to insult them about what they do with their money or what not? they went to lagos to hustle and made it, now you want to form patriotic and do business at home. which businessman does business out of patriotism? you all should understand that its all about profit making when it comes to business. igboland doesnt give them the kind of environment that will boost their businesses but Lagos has the capacity. the only way out of this mess is to run the east as if it is not part of this country and get people to invest in key areas which will sporadically open up other areas of the region. the people clamouring for biafra are right, if you cannot find anything tangible to call your own in a country, why call it your country? |

jpphilips:You are one of the folks who come online pontificating with an air of objectivity when in reality they are neither here nor there. You can use as much verbosity as you like to attempt to cover up your hypocrisy but surely your mission is DOA. Pass this feedback to your backers. If you feel you can measure up to half of the wit of NK try commanding a counter demonstration in SE and see if you will not be shamed. But note that the mere thought of Biaf... will continue to cause terrible nightmares, heartaches and madness to enemies and naysayers. The real enemies of progress are the proponents of the status quo in the Nigerian system, and are accustomed to spreading lies and wicked propaganda. Anyone who supports in the smallest ways the sustenance of a criminal system that has only brought shame, waste, killings and backwardness, should be charged with crimes against humanity. I'm not surprised at your deceitful disposition towards important discourse in the land. You are really living up to what you stand. But one thing is certain, that your continual use of cleverly crafted deceptive words to mischievously divert attention or misrepresent the reality in the land will surely boomerang, sooner than later. 'One Nigeria' is just for self benefit - anybody or tribe who is benefiting from it, be it in civil service, politics and business through monopoly, backed by evil structures put in place by past rulers will not agree that Nigeria should be restructured or otherwise. Many people have been sacrificed and are still being sacrificed to keep Nigeria one at the expense of justice, fairness and equity with crass looting of the treasury holding sway. The moment the consciousness of a people is awaken, no abuse or threat can stop them. The road may be long, the process may be costly, some might even pay with their lives, but more than ever important before is that the people want liberty, justice and equity. No man on this planet can hold them back... |

It all lies in the igbo hands to follow the best path for the sucess of their secession, only if it is by inciting violence we would have to do whatever is necessary to protect our people, like you protect yours. Its like a man throwing tantrums in a crowded bus, do what you want to do, but dont touch me, cos im as uncomfortable as you are im only waiting for the right time to alight from this bus called Nigeria, but dont make my time on this bus hell simply because you cant control yourself and be civil |
