Is there anything wrong in igbos desiring to leave Nigeria? Is it a must to remain part of a country? Are they slaves or what that they can't demand to separate if they so desire?
because you, Kanu and his ipob miscreants want to leave equate to the Igbos wanting to leave, did the deputy senate president, your governors, reps, senators, ifeanyi Ubah and other successful Igbo sons and daughters tell you and Kanu they want to leave . So because u and Kanu and other unsuccessful lots want Biafra that is not in the interest of the successful ones, who even make Kanu and his slaves as spokesman for the Igbos, the Igbo community in Kanu said that they are for one United Nigeria which is to there interest.

Everybody has an opinion, and that's absolutely okay, but thinking your opinion counts because you can write A B C is utter foolishness. Your ilk are who make Nnamdi speak the way he does. Can't your tiny brain tell you that kings are traditional rulers, not appointed or elected? I won't blame you much though, you live in a society where everything goes, and you think that's okay.

Hahaha, the best way to determine whether we want to stay or leave is through a referendum, and if I recall correctly, asking for this is equated to terrorism and and war mongering in Nigeria, go figure.

Why don't we test the popularity of 'we'. As for your question, why did a sitting President escalate an already bad situation? Answer that, and you'll get your answer to why the agitations have increased.

That you say secession or referendum is not a part of Nigeria's constitution is directly equivalent to slavery, don't ask why you are called slaves when next IPOB or anybody calls you slaves.

Mrrationalshop:
Abia State Governor, Okezie Ikpeazu, has said there is a clear division between the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu and his father, who is the traditional ruler of Afarakwu community in Abia.
Ikpeazu stated this while taking questions from State House correspondents, after a meeting with Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo on Tuesday.
The reporters had asked him to react to the demand of a youth group seeking the dethronement of the father of the Biafra agitator.
“I clearly separate Kanu from his father. The processes of handling traditional institutions are enshrined in the laws of our land.
“And traditional rulers who are members of our constituency have the leadership they will do the needful at the appropriate time. But for me, I think there is a clear division between Nnamdi Kanu and his father,” he said.
Assuring residents of his state of their safety, Ikpeazu said the economy of Abia would suffer if “if we make our kitchen the theater of Biafra”.
“Nigerians know that for some time now that this group called IPOB was agitating for a separate nation called Biafra and that the home state of the leader of that group happens to be Abia state,” he said.
“As expected, when such things happen there is an interface between some members of that group and the military, and the theater was Abia state. And some people attempted to hijack that event to conflagrate our country.
“To the glory of God the rest is history, we are still working to stabilise the fragile peace in the region. I thank God also for the instruments he used to be able to keep our country as one. We are humbled by the privileges.
“I will continue to protect the lives and property of my brothers and sisters irrespective of where they come from. You know that the mainstay of our economy in Abia state is trade and commerce and I do not think it will augur well for our economy,”‎ he added.

Badluck:
LET TRUE FACTS BE TOLD, NO HAUSA HAVE RULED NIGERIA.

Nigeria got the independence in 1960 which is 57 years now.

Let's look at the records:

The longest serving president in Nigeria is a Northern Christian minority Yakubu Gowon 9 years. He's Angas by tribe from North Central.

Followed by a Nupe man another minority from North Central IBB. He ruled for 8 years.

A kanuri man from Borno, Abacha ruled for 5 years. Kanuri is another minority from North East.

Tafawa Balewa ruled for 6 years a Northern minority from Balewa North East as prime minister . While Zik was the president.

Murtala Mohammed from Auchi but Born in kano ruled for a year before he was assassinated.

Shagari a Fulani man from Sokoto, from core North ruled for 4 years.

Yaradua a Fulani man from Katsina, a core north ruled for 2 years

Abdulsalam a Gwari minority from Niger North Central ruled for 1 year.

Buhari ruled for 10 months(1st time) and now in his 3rd year(2nd time).

Obasanjo a Yoruba man from South West ruled for 3 and half years.

Same Obasanjo a Yoruba man ruled for 8 years.

Shonekan a Yoruba man from South West ruled for 6 months.

Jonathan a minority from South South ruled for 6 years.

Aquiyi ironsi for 7 months from guess where? Abia State.

If you check the whole record, Hausa man never ruled Nigeria.

All the 3 Fulani president, Buhari , Yaradua and Buhari again have ruled for 10 years to date.

Yorubas 12 years

Angas(present day Kanke) for 9 years

Nupe 8 years

Ijaw almost 6 years

Gwari 1 year

Kanuri 5 years

Ironsi : 7 months

Igbos zero month (if we say Ironsi is not an igbo man)

And if you look at the 57 years rule

Muslim rule for 29.5 years

Christian rule for 27.5 years ( Zik presidency not added).

But I keep wondering why some Nigerians keep calling Hausa - Muslim Born to rule.

Many are very economical with the truth, what Obasanjo spent in power is more than what the whole Fulanis spent even if Buhari finish this tenure.

And here is a shocker, the Hausas are actually a majority. Imagine if they begin to look at issues from tribal perspective and begin to emotionally blackmail us all with cries of marginalization which factually is true.

But the poor Hausa man is not. For one way, he understands that we all have been marginalized. Our war should be against the class marginalization. The rich versus the poor.

For it is the same thing that a poor man from Nupe, or the poor man from Efik, Igala, Kanuri, Fulani etc suffers that the poor Hausa man suffers likewise the poor Igbo man. That class disparity ought to be our war. Not the hate resulting from lies that an Hausa man have ruled us for 200 years when infact the true tally is zero.

We are better together. Yes we have grievances, but blackmail, lies, propaganda won't solve them for us. Only the truth can and will.

Stop being clever by half. Will you be willing to accept an Ijaw President from another party after Buhari's regime is over thoughtless of one from Bayelsa. Will you not rave and rant. Yaradua is from Katsina, Buhari is from Katsina, two Presidents from one state in less than a double term apart. Where else can this happen and you tell me Nigeria's geo-politics isn't skewed. When there is cross cultural advantage you will gladly hear the terms hausa-fulani, one north, etc but when pressure is placed on the region as in this secessionist drama you gladly delaminate. Shows that the people behind this movement actually know what they are doing in driving a wedge between northern groups.

Kanu simply said we are leaving and the whole country became scared.
What are they scared of?

Their fear means that they need us, the sooner we realise this the Better for us..

And why will they dethrone him, what has he done wrong?
Saying that we shall not serve the fulani oligarchy is that wrong?

The Emir that abducted a child was he dethroned?

And just to add to the vital points you've made above, from 1999 to date, all the Governors, Senators, HoR members, State HoA members, LG Chairmen, Councillors in the SE have all been IGBOS, not from other tribes like it was during military regimes. So, the real question is, what have these guys done to improve that Region individually and collectivelyhuh What investments they did attract to their various states to empower the people, beyond giving them keke napep, and other gifts during electioneering campaignshuh No ONE is asking these pertinent questions, no ONE is asking these guys to give account of their stewardship to their various states. The focus is on the Federal Government

In my opinion, I don't think it's necessary to dethrone the father for a sin the son committed
And what 'sin' did NNAMDI Kanu commit? That he is an uncompromising, courageous freedom fighter, who risked his life and convenience for the marginalized people of the Southeast to be free from Nigeria. I may not like some of his comments and approaches, but he did the right thing. There may have been collateral damages to our people as a a result of the illegal onslaught from the people who do not want us to be free but that is all part of the price of freedom. Moses was not a sinner when he led the people of Israel out of Egyptian bondage. The people of Israel were even made to suffer more when Moses announced their impending freedom and they blamed Moses for their plight but their freedom eventually came to pass! (Exodus 5:4-23). Biafra's peaceful separation from Nigeria will eventually come to pass I J N, Amen.

The then Emir of Sokoto, Ibrahim Dasuki was dethroned by the then millitary administrator of Sokoto state, Yakubu Muazu, in 1996.

Likewise, if someone is pronounced king by the king makers and the state government refuses him the staff of office, he cannot rule over his people.

So kings are subject to the state government as (fortunately or unfortunately) enshrined in the constitution.
