No, we are enjoying Nigeria, how can we go back when you think you can use our money to develop your places. We are there and will be running things while you while and wail.

ramdris:
Bring it on!

Frankly speaking ehn, I don't really mind breaking up Nigeria so far it will be done without firing a single bullet...

Nwakaumu:
TAFonjas rarely crawl out of their Oshogbo cave.whenever one of their folks who manage to get to Asaba and catch sight of onitsha high-rise buildings, they get crazy. I live in onitsha and work in asaba,I get to see such Afonjas alot.those Agbo-jedi hawkers.

rlauncher:
You are a sick racist/tribalist.

That is the problem. You see people of other ethnic groups in Onitsha and Asaba which is not even Igboland and it angers you.

It's very evident that the calls by some of you for the disintegration of this country is based on nothing but hatred for people of other ethnic groups.

Sweetnik22:
I hope blood didn't come out from ur mother's before she gave birth to u

Ekinematics:
I need not explain to you where I'm from.
I'm not like you Ibos that poke nose in matters that doesn't concern you.
If you follow me very well, I only comment on threads that concern SS expecially Rivers and Bayelsa.
I'll continue to invite all you Ibos to come to PH and tell me how Yoruba I am.

That's right, whenever we defeat you with superior logic, you turn to insult and run away to cry. Sorry.

The supposed implosion of Nigeria is nothing but a pipe dream. I've met with people from different parts of the country who are busy working to help build this country.

An example is Mr Okoro of Greater Works organization who is going all over the country training many Nigerians in modern Agric business.His organization have help many Nigerians of different ethnic groups to start participating and benefitting from the current Agric Revolution. In a few years time, we will start seeing the benefit of the contributions of his organization.

What story will be told about you in the future when Nigeria eventually comes out other woods.

rlauncher:
Nigeria will be great. A thousand of Okurounmu and ten thousands of discredited ipobs cannot stop it.

The roads may be rough now, but we will get there.

What Ojukwu saw early in the morning, Awolowo couldn't see in the afternoon.

What Nnamdi Kanu saw in the evening, some people from the south west are still arguing it till this night!

Nwakaumu:
There you go again afonja. Why are you people never crawl out of of oshogbo cave to even know the geography of the one Naijeria you re shouting up and down.So you are so dumb as to say that Asaba and Onitsha are not Igbo cities.I give up on Afonja and their narrow minded mentality.

midol:
My yoruba muslim brother, name one yoruba and one Ibo that signed the Abdusalami constitution and show us a copy of the agreement that every region signed to be together?

God bless your pro-lugardian muslim skull if you do.

Who care? Scientific study says there is virtually no DNA difference between Igbo and Yoruba tribes. Your tribalism hence is stupid and imaginary. This is 2017. The Japanese stopped their feudal tribal wars over 150 years ago. You Nigerians need to stop discriminating against your own people over imagined ethnic differences. You are all the same ethnicity and race. Study even says Ghanaian do not have enough DNA difference with Nigerians to justify different ethnicity or race, let alone Igbo, Yoruba and the million other nonsensical divisions you Africans made up from thin air.

The Chinese have two tribes and languages: Mandarin and Cantonese. Yet they work as one to enrich and make China better with less corruption, more business, better schools, etc. Now they are a superpower. America is am even better example: all races on Earth live there and yet they get along well enough to be a superpower. If USA can get totally different races with differenf genes to cooperate, Nigeria can get its far more similar black tribes to do the same.

Owerri and Enugu are more developed than Port Harcourt or Warri. That we move out to conquer territories don't mean we don't build our region. Can you buy land in Nnewi? In your life, No.

Show me anywhere else in the south south that can come close to Aba, Onitsha, Nnewi or Umuahia. None.

I know those from the south west will be enjoying this. But if we must compare, the south east beats the south south flat. No contests there.

Adecks01:
really killing our dear Nation.
Politicians that lack good manifesto now use that to win the votes of the poor.
Cocaine dealer who is being hunted for his crime use it to get security from the locals.
Armed robber who is being shut by the police use it to gain sympathy.
Religion and ethnicity is really ruling Nigeria.
That is why any office you enter in this nation,you can easily identify the ethnicity and religion of the boss Just by analysing that of his sub-ordinate.
Hausa employ Hausa
yoruba employ yoruba,
Ibo employ Ibo,
please who'll employ the minority then?
How do we want the Nation to develop with such attitudes naaa?

Universal Declaration of Human Rights

This marriage is not by force.

Follow what other nations did. Punish and castigate tribalism, encourage Nigerian homogeneity (for Nigerians are homogeneous except in the case of some Hausa, who I think are part north Africa; might be worth it letting then go), patriotism and unity. Education should be free or near free for Nigerians so they can be inundated with patriotic tones and values

ElsonMorali:
Awolowo was never again secession. Hear his words again: "If the Igbos ARE ALLOWED TO SECEDE, the Yorubas will not remain in Nigeria

No good leader will ever drag his people until a needless war

If Nigeria breaks, Yorubaland will prosper, no doubt about that.

And yet when Igbos seceded, as the typical two faced politician he was, he jumped ship, accepted political position and started singing 'one Nigeria' louder than a Canary.

Which is another way of saying "never rise up against the Northern oligarchy, we are their humble slaves"

You guys should more worried about how your lands will turn into Fulani grazing fields.

Adecks01:
Because we love you

Just the North-West alone has more recruits than the whole south.
