North And East: My Experience Yesterday In Onitsha (Photos) by Anambralstson: 9:00am On Feb 02, 2020
Yesterday I decided to go for inspection visit on second niger bridge site, I went through harbour industrial estate Onitsha. It's one of the the major industrial estates in Anambra State. Previously I do visit the industrial estate on Sundays, the second niger bridge site is not far from the estate.

I went yesterday being Saturday, I was marvelled by the number of trucks most especially from the north with raw materials to sale to the industries. They all line-up both sides of the roads. I decided to make enquiry from one of the the locals I saw, he told me that's how they come everyday except Sunday, that after selling the raw materials they load finished products and other goods from Onitsha markets back to north, I was so excited.

No man is an island, only if we learn how to do things right in Nigeria, providing basic infrastructures doesn't benefit only the indigenous people other Nigerians residing or that comes for business also benefit from those infrastructures. Pictures below

So you’re happy that trucks bring goods from the north to anambra and take goods back to the north from anambra? Something that has been happening since time immemorial undecided

My thoughts exactly.
But I like the way he brought it up. Some people are bent on brainwashing the Igbo youths of this generation into hatred n views that the average northerner is their problem while it's not true. Northerners have been living in Onitsha even before the creation of Nigeria.

The name Fegge is from Niger State. Growing up in Onitsha before the war, my father said Bida,Haruna, Sokoto n Niger Streets were enclaves of the Hausas n the heart of the North-East trade.

Brits named them _Burma,_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Myanmar!

Brits named them _Upper Volta,_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Burkina Faso,_ which means Land of Incorruptible People!

Brits named them _Gold Coast_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Ghana!_

Brits named them _Southern Rhodesia_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Zimbabwe!_

Brits named them _Northern Rhodesia,_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Zambia!_

Brits named them _Tanganyika_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Tanzania!_

Germans named them _colony of South West Africa,_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Namibia!_

France named them _Dahomey_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Benin!_

Belgium named them _Zaire_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _DRC_ or _Democratic Republic of Congo!_

And the list goes on and on and on.....!

But Brits named a bunch of people _Nigeria_ and _they will rather kill to preserve it than restructure and give them selves a befitting name

"It is only an animal that bears the name that is given to it by his enemy___ _Igbo Proverb_

Even the Brits who brought about the Nigerian amalgamation have pulled out of the EU, it is inconceivable why this contraption called Nigeria still exists...

when they left southeast and went to katsina to construct rail lines that will lead to niger republic thinking they are punishing ndi igbo i just laughed at their ignorance.

its only myopic people that doesn't know the huge economic role southeast plays not only for Nigeria but for west africa as a whole!

Onitsha, aba and owerri has the highest number of dangote trucks visiting the region after lagos. it has the highest number of goods transported from the north and vise-versa more than any other state aside lagos!

now you can begin to imagine the huge economic importance of rail lines in this region linking it to lagos, kano and port harcourt.

IGBO LAND IS A VERY IMPORTANT ECONOMIC HUB TO NIGERIA - CALL IT CHEST BEATING NA YOU SABI!

stop the stupid propaganda!

the average northerner hates the igbo man with everything in him - thats why any slightest opportunity he will use it to attack and kill him!

tell me - how many times have you heard an igbo man attacked any of the numerous northern brothers of your residing in the east!

we know you are an aboki that grew up in igbo land i will advise you to go to your northern brothers and preach them to understand that the average igbo man doesnt hate them nor have time to hate anybody at that - we are just after our peaceful survival!

If there is perfect level playing field for everyone in Nigeria to play politics, state police, fiscal federalism, devolution of power, equality and other known democratic norms, nobody would've been agitating for separation

No body is brainwashing anyone,


Igbo youths has seen how much you Hausafulanis and yorubas hate them.

Doing business together doesn't translate to sharing
love.


We can still do business together even as neighbouring country.
