The sun doesn't move stupid. .the Earth revolves around the sun.

"Alaafin of Oyo backs restructuring, says current system retrogressive"



The Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, on Monday in Ibadan backed calls for Nigeria’s restructuring, stressing that the present arrangement would not allow states in Nigeria to develop at their own pace.

The monarch spoke at the public presentation of a biography and postscript titled, ‘Samuel Ladoke Akintola in the eyes of history’, which was written by Femi Kehinde.

According to Alaafin, the North was favoured in terms of revenue allocation because while more states and council areas were created in the region, the southern states had yet to enjoy similar opportunity.

He said, “The first time that the Federal Government would interfere in state affairs began when the government at the centre interfered in the feud between Akintola and (the late Chief Obafemi) Awolowo. The government, in support of Akintola, declared a state of emergency in the old Western Region, snowballing into a serious crisis.

Go And Die Idiot!

Who are you teaching secondary school geography?

Who doesn't know that the rising sun concept was based on human observation from planet earth?

Japan is also called land of the rising sun.

The Bible talks about the sun rising Psalms 113:3

Even a blind man will know that my question was a rhetoric question.

Your deep hatred of anything Biafra will consume you one day.

Point of correction Prof,
It's not Biafra has not been defeated

But

Biafra can not be defeated.

This ideology is ingrained in the mind and souls of toddlers and babies unborn,
The cry for liberation echoes from the anthills of Nsugbe to the mountains of Ngwo,
The cry of injustice is heard from the lakes of Oguta to the beaches of Buguma.

Never again,
Never again shall we see the Hausa-Fulani and call him brother.
We are not genetically identical
We are not psychologically identical
We are not spiritually identical
Those are no brothers of ours,
At best, they are neighbors but not our brothers

Our brothers don't mate with animals
Our brothers don't marry underage girls
A neighbor is not a brother.

Our lands are ravaged,
Our resources are exploited,
Our tomorrow is raped,
Our hands are tied,
Our mouths are gagged
They've made us believe all we can do is mumur
We can't shout or fight because we are powerless.
But our resolve is unflinching.

One day,
The sun will rise again,
Power will return to the people

Viva Biafra.
The blood!

Some people think Biafra started with APC administration, I laugh.

The wounds of Biafra are still existent in many Families up till today.
Personally, I wasn't born then, but I was told Nigerian Government dropped a bomb in our Village market, killing many civilians, my Dad's 2 sisters and their small children lost their lives.
The were in the Market, this happened when the war was still starting, it wasn't full scale yet.

My family was personally affected, Nigeria has never apologized for this, even the program to reconstruct, rehabilitate the places that were destroyed by the war, never saw the daylight.
I know some disabled people still alive today, who got their disability as a result of the Biafra war.

Biafrans were given just £20 to start life, all their previous money was useless, the were sacked from all Government work, the were declared resigned...

Their properties declared Abandoned by Nigerian Government.
And some deranged Lunatics will say Igbos are too hateful, why won't we undecided angry. Some things can't be forgiven, if the are forgiven, the can't be forgotten

I'm not an IPOB member or a full supporter of Nnamdi Kanu, but Biafra is far from Over.

Before you open your dirty mouth to shout 1 Nigeria, pray for your family members to be blown away by bomb

Buhari given his nepotism, undiplomatic, bigoted and fanatic nature just increased the fire, but the fire was always burning...
I still insist that Buhari is a curse from the gods, no doubt.
No country deserves Buhari as a president, it's pure wickedness, many people are suffering so much.
Exactly

I have always known that the present hatred of Nigerians can be traced directly to igbos parents, feeding their Children with bitterness and hate, why pretending to be Christian, little Wonder God hardly work with them, I hope this generation will not learn another bitter lesson.Igbo parents preach love and forgiveness and you might save your children
This comment is obviously borne out of hatred.
How do you expect people not to tell such tales even to their great grandchildren.

Nigeria is in denial, so are you. Thinking that the genocide can be forgotten by not talking about it or teaching it in schools - the problem exactly.

No single day to mark the memory of that incident, igbos did sit at home- and the north gave them quit notice. Imagine

Don't southwestern states mark June 12 till tomorrow. Are they also seen as wicked Yoruba leaders too?

Okay, continue in spreading hate, you can recount the history but not perpetuate it in the minds of younger generation by distorting it. Note that, hate will always begat hate and you guys are only mouthy and good at throwing verbal tantrums, when others retaliate in kind and more, dont cry genocide in my ears.

Before you spit at my face. . I'm both Ibo and Yoruba. . so there's no direction that this Nairaland tribalistic insecurities goes that doesn't affect me. Rant all you want . .but stop sounding like superior tribalistic slowpoke that thinks his tribe (or any tribe for that matter) means shit in the fu*ked up zoo of a country we live in.

You are talking rubbish!

How I sounded is non of your business,go and face the affairs of whichever tribe you belong to.

In fact do not complain, because you foolishly started it by initially referring to my earlier post as "Stupid"

So you truly deserved what you got

The Igbos have to be careful with this motivations from yorubas or pay worst price than they paid between 1967 to 1970.Igbos are richer now than then and have much to loose today,be careful
Your fear mongering does not dissuade anyone. The joy of freedom and self-actualization is more than anything Igbos and other Biafrans would lose when we get our dear country. So sir, I advise you to worry more about yourself and your people's fate after Biafra has left Nigeria. You have a choice to fight for your own independence. Thanks.

Guestlander:
I agree with you. Wole Soyinka should mind what he says lest someone declare war saying Soyinka encouraged him to secede.
The papa Awo speech to the western house assembly was the reason they declared the last one. We don't want another "Yoruba told us to do it" story.
Biafra has already decided to go. It is not because of anybody's persuasion. Prof only said his mind and he is entitled to that. That's all. We are going and the blessings and otherwise are entirely ours. Thanks.

Deserved what I got?
Are you mad?
Is this a contest?
Both you and your Bianfran tribal fanatics whose only job is to segregate tribes are stupid (yes, I said it again. .before, I deemed your words stupid but now I can see that both you and your words are stupid). Your stupidity cost over 1 Million lives when you first brought this sh*t up. Yet, instead of realizing that it was a failed and costly attempt and a disregard for human lives you want to continue in your stupidity.
Get the f*ck out of here. . .
P.S- I'm sure you will stupidly answer again.

Look how immaturely Ibo-tic you still sound.
Didn't I tell you to stop sounding stupid or didn't you learn from anything I said?
Poor boy. .with a shallow mentality.
Instead of bringing out intelligent words, you went and borrowed Nairaland's overused slangs.
What is ""Afonja" or "Skull miner" in what we're saying?
I'm waiting for your striking thunder.
You're just a blabbling goat and a stupid one at that disgracing other Ibos with your ignorant ranting. .education is a state of mind and obviously you lack it.

Afonja, Skull miner, Coward etc that's exactly what you are.

I debate and argue intelligently to persons who mention me for intellectual discuss (check my posts) and abuse persons like your stupid self who brought abuse.It depends on what you want

Now let me ask you: Why are you having nightmare and sleepless night over Biafra?

Can't your brown-roof republic live without Biafra?

Or are you worried about your plight living with the blood tasty Fulanis after we are gone?

I say sorry in advance!
