Nigeria's breakup is inevitable and that's the reality. There is too much injustice, frustration, nepotism, poverty, underdevelopment etc that will ultimately cause its collapse.

Babatunde40:
The aim of Nigerian policemen like the ones here is not to enforce or uphold the law. Their aims are to oppress and extort Nigerians. They don't care if you wear face mask. They singled out that guy because he looked like someone they can extort money from

You really know the bas.tards very well. Their motive at all times is on how to make money in every situation, all other issues are secondary.

They have become good paychologists and can read situations with ease.

The other time I was on traffic, the line started moving and I moved as well behind some commercial buses, all of a sudden policemen alongside traffic warders surrounded my car. According to the them, I violated traffic lights even when several other buses ahead of me were allowed to pass.

I have studied them, if you want to always outwit them, keep a straight face whenever you encounter them, ensure you speak good English, use wisdom in responding to them like a lawyer.

The same afonjas that want Nigeria to continue existing by all means regardless of how worthless it has become are doing so out of selfishness.

Since the end of the civil war, these guys took over all the jobs in the oil industry, sold the foriegn owned companies to their people in the name of indigenization, cornered every infrastructure to their zone such as seaports, airports etc, and as if that is not enough, they hounded and attacked GEJ, the only person to emerge from the Niger Delta as president until he was frustrated out of Aso rock, now these same selfish people wants to contest for the presidency again when common sense should have told them that it would be unfair to do so when the SE and the SS are yet to take their turns.

These guys are so desperate for Nigeria to remain as one entity out of selfishness because they know that they are milking others dry and once the country breaks up, they will lose such opportunity yet they can't even be altruistic knowing that only fairness and justice is what could make the Igbos to consider staying in Nigeria and not all these infantile propaganda about being landlocked.

Biafra will be actualized in no distant time if the status quo in Nigeria continues and that's the truth.

Not possible. Article 127 of UNCLOS says:

Article 127
Customs duties, taxes and other charges
1. Traffic in transit shall not be subject to any customs duties, taxes or
other charges except charges levied for specific services rendered in
connection with such traffic.
2. Means of transport in transit and other facilities provided for and
used by land-locked States shall not be subject to taxes or charges higher than
those levied for the use of means of transport of the transit State

Not only can Nigeria not stop the SE from having access to the Sea, they cannot tax them either.

I like the way you are silencing these hate-filled desperados with hard facts.

Lol, I find it amusing how the afonjas and their northern masters are now desperately working overtime in spewing lies upon lies just to demarket Biafra actualization. Their desperation shows they have seen that Igbos are unstoppable and are seriously working on leaving Nigeria. That is why you see them begging, threatening, advising, blackmailing and doing all sorts of things including propaganda and blatant lies just to keep Igbos in Nigeria.

I really find their desperation to keep their cashcow in tact but unfortunately for them, even far more powerful countries couldn't stop their balkanization when it became inevitable just as it has become in Nigeria of today. USSR, Yugoslavia, Sudan, Ethiopia, Czech republic etc all broke up ultimately and same fate will certainly befall this useless country that has become an embarrassment and a rotten field infested with poverty, killings, frustration, and hopelessness.

Bros, check it sir.


You are gradually going overboard by this your unwanted display of victims mentality and delusion of persecution of the Igbos by the Yorubas.



Yorubas were never part of the Eastern Region and nothing concern them with Eastern Regional Cabinet.

Nonsense as usual. Present day Delta and Edo States were once in the Western region so how many of the minorities did you guys give reasonable posts? As you can see, Igbos gave minorities key portfolios which is in line with our Egbe bere, Ugo bere equity mantra.

Also, check out how Igbos ensured that no part of the East, whether minority or not was not left out in terms of scorlaships as well as projects distribution even when they were not under any compulsion to do so. Now contrast that to what took place in the West where Awolowo cheated the minorities with reckless abandon. He taxed them heavily yet all his projects were in afonja land.

SMH, Lies can travel for long but truth will always overtake it!

Hypocrite, where was this your epistles when GEJ was on the throne? Yeye they smell, I beg swerve, Yoruba's has been in opposition for decades, do we complain? Must u people b AGIP? Learn to live and let's others live, not when things are not in your favour, is then u will allow one idiot to b shouting Biafra or death, u will rant tire. [/s]

If you must quote me, then do so sensibly and not like a rabbid dog. Ignored!

Just imagine!? Emeta Evo mmou!!

Everyone who is discernible enough knows that the only reason why the north is riding roughshod all over the rest of the country is due to the afonjas.

Let's look at it critically, who are the people criticizing how Nigeria is being bastardized? The Igbos! Who are the people condemning and sabotaging their efforts in trying to challenge the status quo? The afonjas! Now, who benefits with the squabbles going on between the two? The abo.kis!

Anyone with an above average IQ knows that the moment these two tribes should speak with one voice the northerners will have no choice than to listen but due to irrational hate and bigotry, they are willing to let the country go to the dogs while playing second fiddle provided the Igbos are holding the short end of the stick.

The same people that were demanding for restructuring over the years have suddenly gone quiet even when common sense should inform that being vocal in demanding for it now that Igbos are threatening the very existence of the country would force them to accept it. Instead they are okay with demonizing the Igbos in the eyes of the north as well as the minorities while desperately seeking to be compensated with an unmerited presidency for serving the interests of the north.

senatordave1:
He was a Fulani prince man,the son of a first class emir and the rulers of the north were always going to be Fulanis.at least,him and gowon were on the same rank thougj gowon senior him.it was that obvious.Gowon was lucky to be head of state above murtala who was favoured by the northern aristocracy.in 1975,he got what he wanted for so long

You people really have a very big problem indeed. Just look at what you shamelessly wrote! The same person that created a cynical thread to ask why someone in the East was bypassed in favour of another person of lower rank is also justifying why another person was bypassed in the north for another who is of lower rank.

So, if it was done in the north, there is nothing wrong with it but when it is done in the East it becomes a crime. Even when there are two other Igbos who were bypassed as well, it is not enough not to call Igbos out but he has an already made excuse for the northerners!

I don't know if what is causing all these rubbish is due to irrational hate for the Igbos or an unconscious slavish attitude to always defend the northerners as always right.

So shameful indeed!!

When a drug Baron who is desperately seeking to become president is your leader, then he can go to any length even if it means selling his people into slavery.

How a supposed majority tribe is being treated like trash and disdain while they sulk it up like slaves is what baffles me.

SHAME!!

Blackking98:
Super story, you haven't gotten Biafra yet and you already know who and who will be at your mercy, stop getting ahead of yourself bro. We've been engaging the military for years, small python dance and all of you were crying all over the media space, did you see us cry about Operation crocodile smile? It's because we're used to all that. You don't even have direct sea access without using rivers and passing through our territory to reach the Atlantic and you'll also be inbettween Nigeria and Niger Delta republic and you're making noise, just small blockade from us and you'll be screaming genocide like in 1967.

Firstly, Biafra's actualization is a done deal because Nigeria will even collapse under its own weight sooner than later. If you're discernable this would have been clear to you.

How have you been engaging the military? By blowing up pipelines and ambushing soldiers in the creeks? That doesn't signify you're strong instead it is height of cowardice. Yes, we raise alarm each time the NA misbehaves because we value the life of every Igbo man unlike you guys that will keep mute when whole villages in your areas are burnt down and scores killed.

Also, I can tell you for free that once Biafra leaves Nigeria, no other Southern ethnic group will want to remain behind with the Hausa/fulani. Forget about all these things you see online, the truth is that afonjas in their closets dream of having their own country but they are too afraid to demand for it but once Biafra comes on board, you will see that they would want to ride on our success to achieve theirs because they would rather die than to be left with their local masters.

Nigerian civil war even proves how strong an Igbo nation could be. Igbos single handedly fought the rest of Nigeria with massive support from the West led by Britain. The truth is that we would have won the war if Britain hadn't intervened. Why do you think Britain was aggressive in supplying Nigeria with an endless Armada of arms and amunition? Simply because they knew that Nigeria would be toast in the hands of Biafra if left alone.

Lastly, BIAFRA wouldn't intentionally be hostile to whatever is left of the SS after all our brothers there have rejoined us, rather we will work towards peace and stability but be rest assured that the moment you try to sabotage our interest in any way then it will understand the meaning of onye akpana nwa agu aka n'odu

Blackking98:
Story for the gods. Why didn't you win in 1967 of you're so good. Mtchewww

This is funny. Even under the old Eastern region, the minority tribes were the ones always crying that they were marginalizing them even when Igbos were actually pampering them as the Willinks commission that was asked to look into the matter later discovered, unlike other minorities in the old Western region that were severly maltreated by the afonjas.

Now, ask yourself, if you guys were always crying wolf then and seeing Igbo Giants when we were friendly with you guys, then what do you think would happen if we decide to go all out against you all? That's a food for thought!

gidgiddy:
Theres a difference between being landlocked and having access to the sea. In the map below, anyone can see that the Azumini blue River runs from the tip of Abia state into the ocean. With the right dredging, ships and badges can easily sail to, and from, Abia state

A clearer map such as the one you uploaded helps to put things in better perspective. One can see how large the Azumiri river is at the Abia tip, and what makes it the more interesting is the fact that even the parts of Akwa Ibom and Rivers that are close to it are inhabited by the Ndoki Igbos who will not think twice before joining BIAFRA knowing fully well that it will make their area to develop very fast and become important since it will now harbor a port and become a gateway to Biafra.

For those that keep making noise that we will have to pass through other lands, now that's fallacy because there is no landmass south of the Abia/Ndoki areas because it empties straight into the Atlantic ocean rather the only body of land below it is an island. So the worst that could happen is to have joint maritime commission.

Akponmfet:
You don't have to worry about the Niger Delta people or what we do with our resources as we don't care what Igbo people do with theirs.Just focus on the 5 South Eastern States.Our NO is final.There should be no need for long stories, we don't want to join Biafra - END OF STORY.

Lol, see this one again. Who is asking you to join BIAFRA? God forbid that we will use our hand to destabilize our potentially great country by allowing cultism and militancy infested heterogenous area to join us. Stop feeling funky because no one needs you in Biafra!

Blackking98:
I know the Igbo ingenuity and stuff like that but I'm speaking with current stats, with high level of cultism and militancy in the SS which means excess arms in circulation the SE can't even afford a confrontation with us bro.

Lolz, cultism and militancy against a sovereign state that BIAFRA would have become?

SS can never stand BIAFRA in any hostility. Forget about militancy, destroying pipelines and ambushing soldiers doesn't mean you are strong.

The truth is that SS or whatever country that emerges from there will be at the mercy of BIAFRA. While BIAFRA will be homogeneous, far more populous, more technological advanced etc. SS on the other hand will be heterogeneous and there is no way you can pacify everyone at the same time which makes it easy to support one group with arms and other logistical support to fight the central government and thus ensure you remain perpetually weakened and moreover, your capital will be P.H. which is just a few miles away Biafra, which means it can be invaded at short notice. So, it will always be in your own interest to make peace with Biafra

awgumayor:
I love that threa. Since the beginning of Ipob, they have been shouting landlocked landlocked, it's like many igbos are queuing to their ideas that igboland is landlocked. But this thread is an eye opener to every igbo that your land is not landlocked whether SE or entire igboland. Let nobody insults you with oil and access to the sea because you have them in abundant.

Honestly, I'm so enjoying their frustration since their last propaganda point has been destroyed.
BIAFRA is so attractive and potentially great as an Igbo only country. Now everyone can see that we don't need SS to be great.

If you know how to read, go ahead, read gently and comprehend massively for your own good.

Your rights are not absolute, it doesn't supersede the rights of the sovereign Nations and the rights of transit states because at the end of the day, they call the shots, not the UN or even you.[/s]

You don't even understand the article you quoted. Igboland has sections that lie less than 25 miles to the ocean, even closer to the Atlantic than P.H. and several others already with ports. Now, FYI, some of these rivers do not cross any other land before emptying into the Atlantic. When Nigeria breaks up and any other neigbouring country tries to sabotage our access to the ocean then it will be an act of war and Biafra will not hesitate to invade such country. What is the distance between P.H. and Ukwa in Abia state? Also, remember that Asa/Ndoki people of Obigbo will most likely go with the Igbo mainland than with the Ikwerre/Ijaw so that makes BIAFRA even more closer to the ocean as well as to P.H. (the capital of whatever nation that will be to our South).

Ikwerre or even the Ijaws can't even challenge us to a war in post Nigeria because they won't be any match to us. Forget about militancy because that's guerilla but I'm talking about conventional.

Secondly, can they sabotage our port while theirs will continue to be in use?

BIAFRA can even easily destabilize their country by supporting our Igboid groups in their country to go an insurrection.

Human resources is as important as natural resources, if not more. That is why Owerri has more beautiful houses than any city in the South South despite the region being oil rich.

When you have natural resources like oil without a commensurate human resources, you will end up having fine roads and flyover bridges with one or two fine edifice that would be surrounded by dingy houses and poor people. A case study is P.H. and Uyo.

The cult issues and Ikwerre hostility has rubbed off negatively on P.H. because you hardly see any rich Igbo going to build imposing houses to live in P.H. except in rare occasions unlike in the 1950's and 60's. Port Harcourt's loss has turned to Owerri's gain.

The kind of properties, especially homes, hotels, eatries and malls found in Owerri are the type you can only find in Lagos, Abuja and P.H. Owerri is even performing better than P.H. in that regard. However, what many do not know is that Owerri is actually benefiting mainly from remittances.

Igbos are apparently the most traveled people in Nigeria and probably Africa, and remittances alone is giving Nigeria billions of dollars yearly. Now, Owerri should be receiving about the second largest chunk after Abuja. When Igbos abroad want to invest at home, Owerri is always their first choice followed by Enugu while P.H. is hardly ever considered. Same goes with Yahoo boys who like to flex or invest in Owerri.

Also, the serene and peaceful nature of the city, its nearness to oil region as well as the commercial cites of Aba and Onitsha, and also a central location in Igboland makes it very attractive for all Igbos to invest in.

That informs in part why Sam Mbakwe Airport is the fourth busiest in Nigeria after Lagos, Abuja and P.H. in that order.

That's the reason why Owerri is quite expensive.

Meanwhile, I have helped lots of Nigerians both within and outside the country to buy lands in nice locations across the city and we can still do so for you if you wish. You can check my signature for more details.

Lol, if you're discernable you should even detect which tribe owns a particular soup. For instance, Ogbono is owned by Igbos and the name ogbono makes it obvious. Egusi is a derived name, it is actually egwusi which is also an Igbo soup. As for okro, I don't know the tribe that owns it.

However, Igbos followed by Ibibios has the best local cuisines in Nigeria.

GreatChizzy:
At this point I realized this conversation isn't based on facts but on sentiments and opinions. And it is illogical to argue against anyone's opinion, because each is entitiled to own one no matter how baseless, illogical and unsensual it could be.

But as a matter of fact; you cannot bring Asaba into this context same reason you cannot bring Abuja into an argument of "North is more developed than West". Because Abuja is the capital and thus developed with the collective resources of the Nation, same as Asaba being developed with the collective resources of Delta.

Honestly, you're the one who is being biased here. Asaba was already the biggest and most important town in Anioma land before it was made the state capital and you claim they shouldn't bring it into the fray? Yet you've added Warri that is the second most important oil city in Nigeria after P.H. as part of Urhobo land even when it is owned by as many as three distinct ethnicities?

Even trying to draw parallels with Abuja doesn't make sense because while Abuja was created out of a jungle, Asaba on its own part have existed before the creation of Nigeria.

You started listing prominent Urhobo people from the Midwest era and these few are only what you could get? Then it means you guys lack human resources because I bet you, if Anioma people including those in politics, entertainment, sports, banking industry etc beginning from the same period are listed here, you will get tired of reading.

Way to go. The development should be across board, starting from the presidency to the Senate and down to other sectors.

That is the sensible thing to do, not borrowing money to pay salaries even when you don't have the means to pay back. Buhari and his goons should stop enslaving the future generations. These guys are on the threshold of departing to the great beyond yet out of wickedness and selfishness, they keep accumulating debt.

Wicked souls!

Let them continue playing victim! That would not stop the fact that they are the poorest in southern Nigeria. The north central should have also done well for themselves if not the instability in their region.[/s]

Stop decieving yourselves with that ridiculous and shameful so-called statistics Yeye Kale pulled out from his smelly ass. There is no way SE would have more poor people than SW. It is not possible, I have been to many states in the SW and I know the situation of things there. Some places there are no different from North in terms of development indices. This is the digital age where we can all verify information if we want. SW does not start and end in Lagos! The Yeye Kale guy even said that Osun has the lowest incidence of poverty, Lol, as in Osun-Oshogbo

Good solidarity!

For Anambra people that still believe the guy is from their state, now look up and see him defending Afonja people for no reason. The bingo is obviously an ofenmanu boy selling agbo in Onitsha.

ScotMisile:
Please,stop giving that kidnapper information about where our billionaires reside in Otown....Otown is made of billionaires from all Southeastern states.

That guy is like cancer, he goes about polluting everywhere. I wonder how one can be moving about with so much bitterness. He goes about fighting everyone, if it is not P.H today, it will be Owerri tommorow, then Abia state the next day, before you know it he is saying trash against Enugu. The guy is really frustrated.

Maadoo:
One confuse 40yrs old man, who spent most of his years playing draft and ludo, waiting for land tax while his fellow citizen was hustling on the street, asked for the streets of the ordinary man, this is it. i see no poverty, i see no hungry and malnourished looking citizens, neither do i see sad faces and people with stunted growth.

NBS data will not save you from your poverty, worse is you dont travel, hence you are intellectually and geographically limited

Lol, Nigeria is such a funny country. Due to ethnocentrism, these guys have succeed in bastardizing our statistics and now no one takes it serious. Each time I'm in the East (Owerri precisely), and I hear that Nigeria is the poverty capital of the world, it often confuses me because all around me are comfortable people but then I will remember that Nigeria is a large country and the prosperity of the East would have been diluted by other poverty ravaged regions. Those guys at the NBS never conducted any study before arriving at the fake statistics rather they will just sit in their offices and dish out numbers arbitrarily. When it comes to verifiable statistics such as university and college enrollment, number of professors, number of pharmacists, JAMB, WAEC just name it, Igbos/South East will always be in the top positions but when it comes to unverifiable ones such as the ones being bandied by the NBS, you start seeing ridiculous and crazy statistics that flies in the face of reality. Common on, you can't hide wealth and can you hide poverty, anybody who walks the streets of Owerri, Enugu, and Onitsha and compare what is on ground with say Oshogbo, Ibadan and Abeokuta would easily know where poverty is more prevalent.

The SW has been living off propaganda for ages now and why it seems like there is a war of words between Igbos and Yorubas on nairaland is because while the former is now leveraging the digital age to quash lies, propaganda and fallacies being used against them, the latter is angry, frustrated that everything is being exposed at an alarming rate.

If only that Yeye Kale dude would travel to the East once, he would be ashamed to have vomited those ridiculous numbers. SMH!
