Sense eluded your type since.
What have you done with your so called oil.
You have oil and are still wretched.
If oil determine the welfare of any nation, Nigeria would have been better than US.
you killed it bro...ask him which part of South south is as developed as Abuja or Kano.

Oil will not be relevant By 2040

You have no good knowledge of diplomacy

Only Lesotho is an enclave in South Africa. What is the diplomatic relationship between Lesotho and South Africa? They are on a good relationship, no problem between the two nations so the seaports in South Africa can be used by the Mosotho government and the land can be used based on the diplomatic agreement between the two nations.
Unlike Nigeria and the proposed enclave, Biafra, there will be bitter feeling and a severe relationship tide between the two nations.

Based on the R. Niger being an international waterway, can the Nigerien government use the River Niger from the delta discharge to Wersternmost end of Kebbi State for cargo? That is a question to you.

The fact that a water is designated as international water, does it mean the nations involved do not have their own part of the water which can never be trespassed by any nation without permission? I’m sorry for your knowledge o

What exactly is your point? That a nation without an outlet to the sea is not sustainable?
Pick up a map, so many nations exist well without seaports or outlet to the sea.

So why do you want us in your Biafra so badly?
I know you think Igbos are very smart and others are stupid, answer me, why do you want us so badly if not for our oil and sea.
Who is the fool now?

Why can't you just form your Igbo Biafra a d leave us alone?

you are the one who doesn't know diplomacy. Trading insult online and official relations are not the same thing.

Nigeria has billions of dollars worth of investment in south east and Biafra needs Nigeria's end of the Niger as a matter of survival... Nigeria loses nothing by allowing Biafra use the Niger...

You will be drinking fura in your home when the two government will reach a trade deal... after that you can come online and insult Biafra as usual and tell us how lucky we are at Nigeria's generosity....we would insult you back while trading between the two countries go on real life
Nigerian investments in the south east is gone automatically and will be naturalized if Biafra succeeded seceding. That is no reason for needing Biafra by the Nigerian government.
And no reason for bilateral agreements.
What about the numerous ndigbo investments in Nigeria and the deported Biafrans?

Tell us from the mid 20th century, how many countries have a mutual relationship with the country which they secede from.

It's funny how you guys keep saying people claiming to be from South South ,what makes you think that there are no Niger Delta people on Nairaland?
The Niger Delta people know very well that Igbos should never be trusted and will never go with your Biafra, we also know that if you were not landlocked and we did not have oil Igbo people would never have invited us into their so called Biafra.
Let me ask you something, let's say Akwa Ibom State where I come from decide to join your useless Biafra, what will we gain from that?
What do the Igbos bring to the table,we have oil,what do you have?
You have nothing but the dream to use our oil to develop your Igbo communities.
We don't need you,you need us.
Please form your Igbo Biafra and leave us out of your nonsense.
Ndisime ndito uneghe.
I must emphasize that I am Ibibio not Yoruba.

So who is using your oil now? You or Hausa Fulani?
Please grow up!

The need for Biafra cannot be over emphasized. First of all, Nigeria is the only country in the world with three major tribes and a 50/50 Christian and Muslim population. That is our major bane and has made national cohesion and integration impossible till tomorrow. Infant, Nigeria is the only country without a national culture or ideology.

However, the call for Biafra has made the Igbos seem weak in the midst of our close neighbours and allies the south south. Everyday we see someone claiming south south, opening a thread and either dissociating their tribe from Biafra or starting an insult against Igbos because of the believe of pro one Nigerians that without south south Biafra is dead.

Is that true? Let's look at the map of Nigeria again

The south east is surrounded by Nigeria on all sides but it can stand as a country on its own. Estwatini is doing great inside south Africa



Estwatini is doing better in terms of quality of life and infrastructure than Nigeria. South east has a port in Onitsha and assess to river in Abia. There is oil and gas in Anambra, imo and Abia. There is still coal in Enugu.

If going forward, the south south folks refuse to unite with us who has never done anything against their interest then we must cut them lose or forget about Biafra.
Afonjas or no Afonjas, truth is that the South south has not done enough to show they are friends of the Igbos. Enemies can only sow the seed of discord where the ground is fertile.
After backing GEJ in 2015 and being hated by the north for it, did it stop Asari Dokubo from calling Igbo ijaw slavé?

How long do we keep lying to ourselves about the reality of our relationship with the south south? What have we ever gained from these people? The civil war was caused by a south south man, but it was us in the south east that paid for it.
The abandoned property saga was not done anywhere else except the south south.

We accept the ibibios in Abia but the ibibios will not accept and respect the Igbos in Akwaibom. We accept the Igala in Anambra but they won't accept the Igbos in kogi or Benue. We accept the cross river tribes in ebonyi, but the cross riverians will not accept the Igbos in cross river.

How long do we play big brother to rude people? The south south should either start acting like dependable allies of Igbos or get cut off. Right now the Igbos seem not to have allies, better that than a fake ally who gives nothing but takes everything, including our dignity.

We must not live in a bubble. Reality is real.
How can I give you a million likes for this? What you said is the truth and nothing but the absolute truth.

As you said, ‘ Enemies can only sow the seed of discord where the ground is fertile” this sums it all up.

lol...adenugas glo, access bank, Nigeria brewery will be allowed to go to Biafra to prevent Biafra from using river Niger? How old are you bro..you are angry like a child and there is a reason people like you don't become leaders.

Eritrea and Ethiopia have normalised relations, Ireland and UK have normal relations

The Biafra we are looking for is not the one of war but that is also an option if we feel backed to a corner.

The truth is bitter but I will tell you anyway.
We trust Hausa people more than Igbos.
Relationships are built on trust and you can't build a relationship with any other tribe because they don't trust you.
It's sad but it's true.
I prefer to deal with Hausa people than Igbo people because we all know Igbo people are worse,Hausas are more honest.
That's why an Igbo man can never and will never be president of Nigeria.

Just keep it real on this thread bro...no games here.

The eastern minorities are starting to piss me off. They have gotten everything from Igbos including large chunks of our territory and votes. We have never fought them or denied them. Abroad e
We take them as Igbos and show them love yorubas will never show them if they don't speak Yoruba.

Now tell me what we have ever got from them in return apart from insult and trolling....why? Because they think Igbos cant do without them? How? Is Rwanda not the fastest growing economy in Africa today even without access to sea or oil?

Bro, trust me....what is happening here is, a handful of people (who may actually be from the so called south-south, or be impostors from those sections of the country scared of Biafra/Igbos leaving) are the noisy miniscule minority, claiming their opinion is that of the people of the entire Niger-Delta or south-south! But ask them to put their money where their mouth is by supporting the call for a referendum, and they will pull dagger for you! Their main job on this forum is to paint the Igbos as greedy, landgrabbing invaders out to take swathes of their neighbours lands or out to coerce them to join Biafra when and if Igbos leave! Ask them how, in practical terms, Igbos will succeed in doing this and they look at you with a dumb/blank expression on their faces!

Remember we're talking about Igbos here; a people who never had an empire where they grabbed other peoples lands and forced them into slavery....a people who have lived peacefully with their neigbours for hundreds of years, and this can be buttressed by the numerous languages and cultures in the eastern part of Nigeria, as against one dominant language in other regions, occassioned by the centrality and singularity of command and control empires and hegemonies engender! smiley

He's saying basically (and i'm assuming he's claiming to be from the Akwa-Cross states) that they prefer Hausa to Igbos, but ask him to cite specific examples how their relationship with Hausas' have benefitted his people as against how their relationship with Igbos has not, and see what his response will be!

If we really liked Igbos we would have voted for Ojukwu when he contested several times under APGA but we never wanted an Igbo president.
If we didn't vote for an Igbo president why would we join an Igbo Republic?
Use your common sense.
We have the numbers to vote in an Igbo president but it will never happen.STOP WASTING YOUR TIME.

Once Biafra comes, it becomes easy to designate the Niger as an international water.

If u haven't read before you reply then get off this thread with your nonsense and don't worry how Biafra enclave will survive...it's none of your business
That is if Nigeria agrees to such an agreement and not for your Biafra or any international body or organization to decide for Nigeria.
