Catalonia will conduct their referendum on October 1st this year to determine the region's independence from Spain, despite Madrid not sanctioning the referendum.

Interesting times ahead. I opened a thread about it twice here, and was banned twice by NL spam bot, so I'm guessing it was deliberate.

That's an interesting point. Could you please clarify which cities you're talking about?

The existing state capitals. Awka, Owerri, Umuahia, Abakaliki, Enugu, Asaba, Igwe Ocha.

There are more than 15 others on the draw board for Ala-Igbo only.

Nigeria is a great constraint becos from wat i know, those cities will be built over our lifetime, with the next generation continuing.

They will be well planned.

They would have killed me if dey can get their hands on me, whether i offend or not dey ban me anytime they see my moniker. I will definately open a thread with that.

Ok o! Goodluck with staying ban free after opening thread with that.

Btw, did you notice that even in Catalonia, there are still traitors in their midst, who are subservient to the Spanish government in Madrid and were not happy with the decision of the Catalonia parliament to vote in favour of a referendum.

Nna e! Ndi sabo no ebe nine. grin

Kudos to Catalonians for keeping the sabos amongst them in the minority and powerless.
We will get there some day in Biafraland.

How will this be achieved? I'm more interested in these cities being productive than beautiful- which industries will each city specialize in?

In Nigeria it is impossible to recall an MP so the best is not to vote for them in the first place. That is part on IPOB's main campaign. We know where we come from and we know where we are going to, and how to get there

Good to know.

The only people who are "beating war drums" are those 'One Nigeria' supporters who believe that a call for a referendum equates to a call for war.

Do I really need to point you to the YouTube videos of Mr Nnamdi Kanu where he was calling for weapons and arms donations as well as urging Igbos to get prepared to massacre Yorubas and Hausas?

So far the only people beating war drums are the Igbos and I think they are trying to compensate for the Biafra war loss.

I was thinking that we could develop the industries that we already have. Aba, for instance, could become our biggest manufacturing hub. It should focus on the textile industry as well as the machinery industry. Owerri, as it's not too far from Aba should be a tourism hub so that those foreign manufacturing companies sending their employees to Aba could have somewhere to relax and take in the country. Onitsha and Asaba are both near the river Niger so we should look into building a seaport there.

Abakiliki should be the agricultural hub and have its own airport so that we can fly produce within and outside of the country. Due to its fertile and rich land, I would suggest that each community should be assigned its own plot of land that they cannot buy nor sell and is paid for the surplus it produces to feed the rest of the country. Instead of having big corporations owning these huge swathes of land; we'd have our own people running them. We should think of the most efficient ways to grow our foods without ruining the soil and if there are any crops that aren't native to Igboland then we should import the seeds of those crops from other nations, just like Israel did.

There's so much more to say but I'll leave that for another time smiley.

Kanu seeks to defend his people. If he did ask for weapons- I'm not sure if this is the true or not- then he didn't do so to declare war on Nigeria. If that was the case then why hasn't he done it yet? Why would he not do that whilst Buhari was still on his sickbed and Nigeria, in disarray?

I was thinking of an industry for culture; one that showcases our culture and our history for the world to see. There's so many great things about Igbo history that most Igbos don't even know. We could build national museums for art, history, culture etc. But I suppose that this is all just a branch of the tourism industry.

There are entire culture centers that are scattered on the map that i have seen, we are talking cities.

Your questions show a brilliant mind that is looking for answers. Keep searching and when you find the truth I sincerely Hope you won't close your mind.

First off, If you can get the audio recordings of his hate talks on Radio Biafra, I'll want you to avail yourself.

Then, there are lots of videos of the man propagating hate speeches, calling for contributions to buy arms and ammunition, from Igbos in the U.S to prosecute a war against Yorubas and Hausas, there are videos of him asking Igbos to be prepared to kill any Yoruba person they sight. There are many videos and If you're sincere you'll find them. Search on YouTube.

This is just a concise and simple truth as to why biafra will never happen.... Biafra has been an agenda of few men that is fueled by greed and dangerous motives. BIAFRA is not and was never the will of the people from the east,, it was an idea fueled from greed by ojukwu and now Nnamdi kanu..and this idea was forced upon to the gullible people of the east, and they took the bait...Catalan independence that is currently trending in spain was started by the people, online poll shows that about 80% of catalans wants independence,, they dont need a man like Nnamdi kanu before they protest, unlike in NIGERIA where majority of easterners dont even care of biafra,, all they need is for the federal government to represent their region well in Abuja...A biafra by Nnamdi kanu forced upon by gullible easterners will not hold....Biafra can only succeed if it indeed comes from the heart of 80% of easterners.
If you believe what you just wrote then you are plain stupid. Over 90% Igbos support Biafra unlike Catalonia that has slight majority over Anti-Independence people.
Unlike Catalonia, IPOB has network in almost all parts of the world.
Unlike Catalonia that unilaterally declared independence on the strength of an illegal referendum, IPOB is calling for a UN supervised referendum.
There is no internationally recognized secessionist organisation in Catalonia, there are over 5 different secessionist movements calling for Biafra.
While IPOB is building international collaboration, Catalonia didn't.
While EU is ready to recognize Biafra, EU wasn't for Catalonia. https://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2016/01/19/referendum-eu-high-representative-replies-biafra-oeas/
While IPOB has different cases in different world courts, Catalonia doesn't.
IPOB is the strongest member Organisation of Emerging African States, an international organisation lobbying for a Biafran referendum, Catalonia is not a member of any international organisation.
Biafra is more likely than Catalonia, though I'll prefer a strong united Nigeria.
