Officialgarri: IPOB/ESN/UGM/PDP really struck a deadly and unwise blow.
Thanks to the maturity of other Nigerians who foiled the attack as an attempt to plunge the country into reprisal attacks from the North and then a full blown war.
Many thanks to the Governor of Imo state in the person of Mazi Hope Uzodinma Thanks to Governor Akeredolu who hails from the west, for his wise words and thanks to the North who acted like a matured older brother. Back in the days, it would have taken the North only a week to treat people who they perceive as enemies in the language they best understood.
Vaughanlanrewaj: Congratulations Ms Lauretta Onochie. Please be a fair umpire in INEC and uphold the virtues of a True Patriot that you are. Congratulations to you all. Your allegiance must transcend your party henceforth. All the enemies of Nigeria will lose las las. They always lose.you can now use freebie marketing and hunt for freebies on www.freestuffsng.com. May God bless Nigeria.
Sleekfingers: why una like body shaming like this?.....as if you are perfect.......

supportnija: Useless modafuckker let DAAR COMMUNICATION tries and see, their lience will be withrawn, some said it can happen in other clime, if it is clime DOKPESI would have been in prison by now, how can a radio station be paid by National security adviser office? Sorry , the DAAR communication covered war in North East.
selemempe: In this piece, I'm going to let you see why getting Biafra with only 5 SE states may not be a bad idea. I will list my points below.
1. Other enclaved countries. Biafra would not be the only enclaved country in the world. Lesotho is entirely enclaved inside South Africa. They have a population of almost 3 million and still have a higher GDP per capita than Nigeria. As far as we can have an internationally brokered deal with Nigeria to freely allow us use Nigerian airspace for civilian planes, we would be just fine.
2. Oil and gas money The south east has more oil and gas reserves than the Federal allocation it gets. With oil in Abia and imo States and gas in Anambra state, we have enough of that resource to gradually build a more sustainable economy if we plan well. Don't forget that Nairobi Kenya was built with money from tea and coffee. Nairobi is more beautiful than Lagos built with oil money.
3. Military Today Igbos have no military and have no right to form a military. If we are allowed to go with our 5 states, we would have the right to build a military, To buy as much deadly weapons and defence technology as we can afford to buy. We can get Israel to even help us with a low budget iron Dome technology for aerial self defense. We can be able to take the war to any future enemies without being sitting ducks.
3 Customs, immigration today Igbos have no right or sovereignty to defend our land. Any abokì can walk from futa jallon and come and settle in the hills of Enugu. All we can do is rant as far as fulani government refuses to act, we can't do anything. Any trailer filled with whatever can drive into SE today without us being able to check what is inside. With biafra we can legally mount checks on our borders to check what is going in and out according to international law. Do you know that oil is being smuggled out of Anambra on a daily basis? In biafra, we can have checks for things like that legally
4. Passport if they allow us take our 5 states, we would also be obliged to drop the overabused Nigerian passport that can't even get you into Cape Verde. We would create our own passport and build its reputation on a virgin ground and with hindsight on how reputation can ruin a passport
5. Foreign diplomacy today Igbos are not known in international politics. With our 5 states, we would have the right to join the United Nations. We would have the right to build relationships with other countries on equal basis. We can even become a closer friend and protege to Israel, Our president can stand Infront of the UN general assembly every year to speak for us. We would automatically become a sovereign people. Very very important
6. Federal tax if we get our 5 states as biafra, all the billions of naira that goes from our region to Abuja in taxes will stop. That is money that we can use to build our nation
7. Federal fees instead of paying Nigeria government for things like passport, driving license, vehicle papers, radio and TV licences etc, you pay it to the Biafran government. That money can help us achieve a lot.
8. Policing in our 5 states, we will no longer have abokì people mounting road blocks on our roads and killing our hustling youths in the name of policing all because of deep-seated hatred. Biafra police would be 100% Igbo
9. Airport and travel with biafra of 5 states, we would now fly and land in Enugu (for instance) instead of Lagos or Abuja. Our government can even partner Air Peace to create an airline carrier that can later rival Ethiopian airlines. Where there is a will there is a way. Remember that
10. Sea port it gets tricky here but we have options that may be better than going to Lagos to clear our goods. We can import with more air cargo than with ships. Or We can spend money and dredge the river Niger and dock at Onitsha river port. All we need to do as a country is to buy barges and keep them at onne port, once a ship docks there, all cargoes going into Biafra would be transferred to the badges and sailed up the river Niger to Onitsha. Or We can also negotiate with Nigeria to use the Enugu-port Harcourt rail to transport containers and pay Nigerian customs. Either way, we would be fine.
11. Capital flight to Lagos and Abuja Igbos who are quick to build their mansions and businesses in Lagos, Abuja, port Harcourt etc would be forced to come home as they automatically lose the right to live freely in Nigeria. Those returning igbos and their money would help us start building or country from day one
12. I will come with more points but however, I'm not saying it would be a walk in the park. I'm just saying it is still better than Nigeria 1000%. But Building an enclaved biafra that makes sense would take a higher sense of responsibility and imagination than our current leaders are exhibiting, but it can be done
Modified This thread is about those who are quick to blackmail Igbos and Biafra with the term '5 enclaved states'. It is not in any way meant to say that Igboland doesn't extend beyond 5 south east states. However it is meant to show that we have more to gain in an enclaved biafra than in Nigeria. I want people who are opposed to this idea to tell me how it is better for Igbos to remain in Nigeria than to leave with our 5 core states (at least for now)
Excellent article. Biafra should be 5 states alone, I detest South South, they are exactly like the Yorubas, bitter and hate filled.
WalkerMichael: Dear NL brothers and sisters, i lost my mother on Monday such a hard knock on me . I just hope God comforts myself and 3 sisters. I promise to make her proud for life. please help me with your words, I'm really down.
lalasticlala: Some Nigerian celebrities have reacted to the suspension of Twitter by the Nigerian governmet. Celebrities such as Banky W, MI Abaga, Adesua Etomi, Tacha, Toolz took to their Twitter handles to react:
fozapi: i swear this message will get to kanu,i posted on all platforms and i will email or send a message on signal ,enough is enough,now that we told them we are igbos the greatest tribe in africa see them running like headless chicken.lol
Joining the illustrious Igbo race with some dumb lazy would be the biggest mistake ever. Nigeria would fight till death to keep their cash cow the south south.
fozapi: See I got tired of the so-called Niger delta always insulting us and as I said there is nothing like the Niger delta just some bad tribe always hiding behind the Niger delta because they don't speak for all the tribes in the Niger delta. We Igbos have received so much insult from these bunch, like leave us alone, like we hate you in the South-South like nobody likes you in the South-South like we don't want your Biafra, like don't add us in your stupid Biafra and I say to myself Igbos what is the matter with you, why do you keep begging these people to be a part of you, why do you forget who you are so quick, you are Igbos the greatest tribe in the whole of Africa and in fact our only competition are the Yorubas.
why do we allow nobodies in Africa to continue to call us names because of Biafra, Igbos we are over 50million, we are in Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, America, South America, and all over the Caribbean, we are Igbos, from the same tribe as world heavyweights like Chinua Achebe(Novelist, poet, professor), Olaudah Equiano(Explorer, writer, merchant, abolitionist), Cyprian Michael Iwene Tansi(Trappist Monk of the Catholic church), Sir Kenneth Aphunezi Olisa(Lord-Lieutenant of Greater London), Francis Arinze(Cardinal of the Roman Catholic church) and many more.
Why do you people forget who you are so quickly, we are the descendants of 20 pounds and look at us today we can buy some countries in Africa, Dangote is a government stooge and watch Dangote disappear when Nigeria breaks up, what is wrong with we Igbos we need to know who we are and not let Some people belittle and abuse us Leave them they will come begging we have access to the sea, if we don't have we would build one in the air don't ask me how because we are Igbos and we are miracle workers we can do anything.
we must leave these other tribes and focus on us and by the time we have Dubai or China in Igbo land, they will come begging to join us, which other tribes have indigenous people all over if not Igbos and Yorubas. We are Igbos stand tall and know who you are the Igbo spirit can never be broken it never did in 1967 why would it break now that we are richer and stronger. We are Igbos Descendants of the 1967 Heros and Heroines.
If Kanu keeps including those lazy cultists from the South South, I would never be a part of biafra. Is Kanu dumb or what? These guys hate us, we have oil and everything we need, we only need to dredge the Niger and build world class airports to ferry our goods. The lazy South South would beg later but it would be too late.
Lagos principal is indeed a good principal TO HAVE SINGLE-HANDEDLY PICKED A GOVERNOR (as Some do say), not just a Governor but a brilliant, idealistic and working one.
Sanwolu is exceptional, those who criticizes him have who's either a drunkard, fufu(Apu) and kerosene distributors as Governors of their States
[s][quote author= post=101862399]This is Barbaric and getting outta hands. Peace is all we want in our nation.
Every evil and killer herdsmen All the ritualists, kidnappers, Cultists, armed robbers, Baby factory owners, Child traffickers, cannibals all over the South, East, North and West of Nigeria causing chaos and unrest in our darling nation will not see the end of this year. And to anyone supporting such devils and unrest. Painful ends awaits them all.
No be curse, Na FACT
God bless you and yours. You are a food Nigerian who is not in support of kidnappers, murderers, rapists and criminals, unlike some that are pained by our innocent prayers.
African employers need those that would call them sir, ma etc.
Oga: Deji, go and buy me corn across the road, when coming back, use Keke to go and get my kids from school. Wash their uniforms and make indomie for them. Don't forget to bath and feed the dogs cos they look weird these days. Be back in 30mins
