Nwanne rapugodi ndi a. I concur with you. We should make sure south east includes the whole of Igbo territory. This will make it easier for the whole of Igbo land to secede at once.

Eyah, Igbo's don suffer for this country aswear. They are the least in everything. They are least in regional power, I.G.R, Political powers, presence of FG infrastructure, presence of State infrastructure e.t.c. Instead of them to hold their leaders accountable for their woes, they are busy pock nosing in other region's affairs.

it is me. I dont need to hate the yoro folks to get biafra.

The yoro folks can be powerful allies if u have them
This is the last warning
Don't open any thread saying what you are not..
You don't have to claim Igbo anymore
People know what you are...
Enough said

The North west which is the seat of the caliphate is the power base of the north...and by extention, Nigeria. They have the population. Much of the politics played by the north is backed by north west. They produced the first northern premiere, the highest number of nigeria's head of state and they have the highest number of states (7 states) in the north and by extension, nigeria.

The south west is the power base of the south. They have the population and have produced the highest national leaders of southern extraction.

However, because of the perpetual inability of the south west to carry other southerners along and to take the same position with other southern zones, the sw has suffered the same serial disrespect that the rest of the south has suffered from the north west.

We know that the south west can match the north west in population, in international links (there are yorubas in benin republic just as there are hausa/fula in niger republic) and in wealth. However the south west cannot match the north west in political power. We saw this clearly when the north killed Abiola like a common criminal and nothing happened. It is time we in the south come together and correct this. A strong south west would be beneficial to the entire south. A south west that can match the north west in the national assembly number to number.

If the north west must have 7 states, then the south west must also have 7 states. Its time to create oya state out of kwara and kogi and join them into the south west to make the sw 7 states strong. If the north east will have 6 states, then the south east should also have 6 states. Its time to create Anioma state out of Delta and Rivers state and join them into south east .

We are grossly out numbered in the national assembly by the north. The states created were done by northern military dictators the way it favoured the north. Its time to correct some of the deeds done by past nigerian dictators. We must start from state creation. The south must come together on this. We need 2 more states in the south- one in south west and one in south east.

I say again the south west is the north west of the south. It should be the political power base of the south and i believe a stronger south west would be beneficial to the entire south. Let us all join hands and give the south 2 more states
Are you saying the SW must concede to the candidate supported by the SE and SS? What stopped the SE and SS from backing the candidate supported by the SW?

The sw had no business backing buhari in 2015...the idea of osinbajo or even tinubu as vp not withstanding...gej was more likely to favour the west in his 2nd term than buhari was of favouring the west..

That said, we must move on. The sw and se need to come together and create ONE power bloc...regardless of the outcome of 2019 polls. We have to arise from the ashes of 2019 electioneering as one power bloc...
Until we do, restructure will never happen, the yoruba population will never be brought in one sw and neither will the east get one more state..

U see there is nothing a benue man has in common with a sokoto man...but when politics come, they play as one north..we need to learn to play as one south and not back bitting each other

Stupid thread. Mr OP, listen and listen very well. Yorubas will never form alliance with flat-heads from the East. I am Yoruba and I will never support it. We don't like Ibos at all and we don't want anything to do with them. Focus more on how to achieve Biafra while we Yorubas focus more on our Odua Republic. I am glad some Benin people are now supporting Nigeria disintegration. Yes! We want Kwara state in the West but we can't trust or unite with Iboes to get it for us. We can do that on our own. Right from the time this shytehole was created, my people have never aligned with flat-heads and it will never happen - not in this life or the next

lol all i can tell u is oduduwa calm down

Truth is that neither igbos or yorobàs alone can leave this shit hole. U can try like we did in 1967...u will fail like we did in 1970.

Since we have been mumuing ourself in d south playing individual politics, the north has been winning.
They are building mega cities in abuja kano and kaduna while ur ibadan is the biggest shithole in westafrica.

U can support a united south that will free us all from the north...or u can stick to ur high horse and watch the north keep fvcking the entire south with uncircumsises diçk like they fvcked abiola and wife

We told you guys why Jonathan lost. N-PDP. The same guys you are now celebrating were the ones who decamped in 2014 to aid opponent APC against Jonathan.

Yoruba is not your problem. You have not realized this all along until now, as the defectors are slowly trickling back in the light bulb in your brain is lighting up to see truth.

You should own up, instead of spinning and soliciting unity with Yoruba. Ibo is dispensable, you dont count. You feel to gain value Yoruba can help elevate you. You are wrong!

We dont need to work towards additional states to equal North. We are already more than North democratically. We need to work on Middlebelt gaining a separate political identity different from North. If that happens North will no longer be 19 states.

I think wat the op was saying is that the south should unite and work together in order to whittle down the power of the north.

Now imagine my surprise as i read tru the thread and see these 2 infantile comments. That the 3rd largest tribe in nigeria doesnt count? in country of 400 tribes? That the most widely traveled tribe in nigeria doesnt count? a tribe that has produced political leaders in lagos- outside their domain? a tribe that has strong cultural networks outside its domain? A tribe that fought the civil war and became known internationally? The tribal origin of the first free slave in the new world. The tribal origin of the current chief judge of the icc? The tribal origin of nigeria's 1st president, speaker, senate president, army chief? The power base of the east doesnt count?

what i believe is going on here is delusions of grandeur. U believe that because u won in 2015 and became vp that it means u have arrived grin This is the same infantile believe that got abiola killed. The same childishness l believe that lost u guys illorin. So wat about 2023 0r even 2090? huh? wat about long after tinubu and obj and the rest of ur strong men are dead? An igbo dude opened a peaceful thread to extend the olive branch to u guys and u feel good pissing on it? because u got vp in 2015? forgetting that the world wont stop after buhari/osinbajo era. wat will happen when igbos starting winning? wen the powers that be decide to go for an igbo presidency? will it still be ok if igbos come here and write off the west?

u have to just laugh at our collective stupidity and marvel at how easy we make it all for the north to shit on us. Keep hoping the middle belt will be ur pun. They will leave north who they have historically aligned and won with to come and be used as puns by the weak, disunited south. undecided bia come how old are u fo.ols

What did the SW benefit from GEJ;s 1st term to justify the support for 2nd term?

whosoever that wrote this must have smoked osogbo weed this morning.....


I don't need any alliance with yorubas...

Any state that must be created must be from within and not across river niger.....


Imagine one minion from nsukka enugu state will just wake up and say we need anioma....

Fine is okay as far nobody touches anambra in the state creation....they can as well build a sky scrapper from anioma to enugu to connnect them...and carve out some areas as part of the state,...

ok na. I be yoro moslem...but if some guys here dey reason with me am ok.

I know wat i need from nigeria...that is just Anioma state...if i have to kiss yorba man nyash to get am..i will.

If i have Anioma state in south east..then igboland is complete and good to go. I dont need an ''our oyel'' guy who will go to newspaper to ''dissociate ijaws nation from biafra'' the type of yeye these ppl dey make us because we add them for biafra map.

I will never stop fighting for biafra...and unlike most ppl...i know how to get it without fighting anybody.

Gv me Anioma state and biafra is half way achieved
As far as the anioma state doesn't involve carving out any part of anambra.....am okay with it.
