Now, here are a few;

-Why should someone from Anambra have to score 70% in the common entrance examination to gain admission when someone from Yobe state need only to score 1%?

-Name one Federal Govt owned industry in the South East

-Name 2 Federal Roads 8in the South East that are motorable

-Why has work stopped on the Enugu international airport?

And did all that, start with this administration.
Please give this Government time.

I will respond with time

Buhari should tell the world who are the 5% he referred to

Buhari should explain to the world why his appointment was skewed in favor of the North to the disadvantage of the Igbos

Buhari how far about 2nd Niger bridge

Buhari should tell the world why he instigated the DSS to disobey court order
@ the bolded. While waiting for Buhari's response, can you please tell the world how the votes of the Igbos were skewed in the last presidential elections.

Kachikwu and Emefiele are Anioma-Igbo and from Delta.
Chibuike Amaechi is Ikwerre-Igbo from Rivers state.
Buhari seems to be marginalising those that are Igbo and from Anambra, Imo, Ebonyi, Enugu and Abia

Buhari is from Katsina state, and he brought in a number of Katsina people e.g DSS, INEC for a while and possibly others. So we basically have at least three major positions for Katsina.

I will like to know the major positions Buhari assigned to each of the SE states since he came in as president.

Buhari introduced Boko Haram into the SE.
Buhari stopped the second Niger bridge

President Buhari said; "we will not allow anyone create a state within a state".

Does this mean that if SS agrees to go with Biafra then since it will no more be a state within a state that he will let Biafra go?

Or does it mean if SS or NigerDelta decide to go he will allow them as they r a state that is not within a state?

Or does it mean that he would allow Oodua to go if they agitate because they r a state not within a state?

I am not happy with this statement because it means we in MiddleBelt are going to be locked in this Nigerian contraption forever since we r a state within a state too. undecided

Then what happens to UN charter on rights to a referendum?
This is stupid n wrong. This is slavery.
I am not happy about this at all.
In a bid to Islamize everyone u make them slaves.

They must grant a referendum to every region in Nigeria. Any region that what's to be part of Nigeria can remain.
You can never have true n lasting peace if people r held against their will.
You cannot hold a husband or wife against its will.

I am very sure we in the middle belt do not want to be part of Hausa-Fulani nation.

In the end, we will make peace with Biafra or Odua and go with them.
Or kpatakpata we will stand alone.

We do not want to be one with Hausa-Fulani in the middle belt again.

Forced marriage is wrong.
It may lead to continuous war in every generation.

And do not think that we in the MiddleBelt this time around will fight Igbo's.

We are majorly Christian. This is a ploy by the Hausa Fulani to either Islamize Christian Igbo or continuously reduce their population in every generation because I do not see how they will ever agree to be part of Nigeria.

This is so wrong.
Who will defend us in the middle belt against HausaFulani when christian Igbo r wiped out through generational genocides?

We will fall and be Islamized too!

Already the Fulani have shown us their real colour when they were busy wiping out our villages.

Yoruba can never help us. They r a peaceful people.

I advice MiddleBelt to not agree on this cunningness.
In fact I advice MiddleBelt n Nigerdelta to become one with Biafra.

You don't force a people to remain with u.

There can never be peace and progress if u hold a people against their will.

''They say they are marginalized. But they haven't defined the marginalisation.Who is marginalizing them?Where?''

Indeed the SE/SS are marginalized .I just hope some of those top politicians in the SE/SS who has balls comes out and put it to PMB that the SE/SS has been marginalized downgraded and rubbished in every aspect in this godforsaken entity called Nigeria .

i hope the SS is watching how this is going ?

We have Igbo from Anambra, Igbo from Imo, Igbo from Rivers but why are there no such thing as Igbo from Borno, Jigawa, Ondo, Edo or Osun. Which means an Igbo is an Igbo

there are Igbos in geographical edo state, Igbanke, Iru e.t.c

Have you ever believed that someone from Delta is an Igboman by ethnicity?
we've always believed there are delta igbos who providence brought to where they are geographically today like the US . But don't make us think they are always in sync with whatever the mainstream ibo in the SE do or say.


Infact, when ibo were shouting marginalization at the beginning of this administration, and kachikwu was appointed, we all shouted to the high heaven that an ibo man is in place...maybe his kinsmen would be pacified by his appointment, but some so called ibo people on this forum denied him being an ibo man. Your people get problem!
