I must tell you something...

The few times I had the time to listen to Nnamdi KANU, dude's utterances were devoid of logic and right reasoning.

But even if he was logical, I think we as Igbos being entrepreneurial would enjoy a united Nigeria more than any other tribe.

The few times I hate Nigeria as Igbo, are when I see our terrible roads.

When I see some acts of marginalization against Igbos in govt parastatals and the armed forces.

And then when some northern Islamic elements starts to scheme to laud Islamic principles over us.

But these things will pass.

If we work more towards integrating ourselves into the affairs of this country rather than standing aloof, we will join in making policies that will make the things against us die a natural death.

Igbos are winners, why are we rather choosing to run away from the war of who controls the heart of Nigeria.
bro you said the right thing....I don't know why someone will running away from his right and thinking it is good thing

There was a country..........NIGERIA

It is high time we refuse to allow the excuses in our mind to grow into giants that keep us from living up to our full potential.
- Shaun King

Nigeria is one of the greatest nation that has failed to live up to expectations, bidding and potential.
Imagine the abundance of minerals and natural resources, the perfect geographical location, the awesome vegetation and the wonderful human resources and we still find it difficult to reach or attain our full potential.

Sometimes, thinking of Nigeria could give one BP
Nonetheless, God bless NIGERIA

We Igbos as entrepreneurs are the greatest beneficiaries of a united and powerful Nigeria. So the sudden agitation for Biafra is illogical and unnatural.

We Igbo have never been given a referendum to decide whether we want to Biafra or to remain.

Self appointed IPOB leader NK and his agitation is using huge funds from global powers to fund newspapers and social media campaigns to create impression we Igbos support him. The truth is that Igbos cannot care less about IPOB agitation, but their media campaign is gradually winning over some young misguided and ignorant youths using their usual mix of bigotted lies and propaganda.

There is little marginalisation of Igbos this is mainly media propaganda
lolz! inferiority complex,heaven and earth knows you dnt have a drop of igbo blood in you! "we igbos" have become ur national anthem! be proud of your tribe joor!!

I have been trying to get my head around the border closure and how these Zombies feel it's the best decision made by any sitting president. How does closing border because of rice smuggling make Nigeria the giant of Africa? Russia cut off gas supplies to some countries in Europe to flex their superiority in the region some years back. The gas belongs to them,they have it in abundance. The US started a trade war with China. To protect the companies in the us. They have apple,Dell etc. These things are in abundance. Now we do not have enuff to feed the country. The quality is low with stones. And people are shouting like we just went to the moon. I tire

Why is it that it's only some stupid PDP followera that are against this border closure, they prefer to feed other nations so they can shout that Nigerians are hungry and starving as if it's only rice that people can eat, eat other food after all we all recall when it's only on Sunday's and Christmas days that most Nigerians used to eat rice until PDP agents started importing poisonous rice from Thailand and India while bad mouthing our local rich nutritious rice. God punish all of una wey no want Nigeria to good for the benefit of the majority

Nobody is giving anyone referendum because we don't have it in the constitution so IPOB's ideology is dead on arrival.

IPOB's ideology is gradually waning over our youths because most have started asking questions that IPOB refused and hates anyone asking for answers.
("Proof of how soldiers invaded kanu's home, how did he and his parents escape from Nigeria etc".) Questions IPOB had refused to explain till date.

It should just stop the lies and propaganda which won't take it anywhere
