hargbolahan01:LEARN TO SEE THE GLASS AS HALF FULL RATHER THAN HALF EMPTY. You are EXPERT at reeling off the names of bad roads, but if I ask you to name the GOOD roads (of which there are many), you probably couldn't, because you've conditioned your mind to see only the negative. Nigeria is a developing country, like 80% of nations on earth. She will have bad roads for many decades still. She will also have many great roads built. Power shortages will be a problem for at least another decade. That is a business opportunity to go into renewable energy sources. I find it quite boring constantly reading the ''characteristics of developing nations'', which most of you peoples' moaning amounts to. Plus the Mambilla (not Kambilla) power project is very much on stream and under construction, which was delayed by a legal tussle with a former contractor. And there is nothing ''overhyped'' about it, as its capacity is over 3,200 megawatts, with a project cost of 5.5 billion dollars. It is a gigantic project and a real game changer for the power sector. https://allafrica.com/stories/202104300714.html |
peropoliet:Did I say nobody survived it? Of course people survived it. My grandparents were illiterate village peasants, just like 95% of our grand/great grandparents, courtesy of near zero investment in education by the colonial looters in their 70 year rule, even as they exported our resources worth trillions. Would you prefer to be an illiterate, hut-dwelling village peasant than what you are today? If the answer is no, then you will be dumb to imagine that 1960 was better than today. |
Burtonj:Dunce, you've no idea where I am from, so shut up and face the topic, or get lost. You are too dumb and thick to respond to my common sense, hence your need to delve into 'personality' and what 'tribe' I'm from or not from. Forget all that and face the issue at hand, you tribalist air head with nothing upstairs but hate. |
Igboid:So what are millions of Igbos still doing in Lagos, Kano, Kaduna, Ibadan, Jos, Sokoto, Minna, Port Harcourt, Maiduguri, Warri, Benin etc? Why haven't they voted with their feet, and headed down to the East? You hate Nigerians so much, so why do you have to wait for announcement that Nigeria has split before taking your backsides back to your landlocked tribal homeland? BLASTED IDIOT WITH BIG MOUTH, DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT FROM WHAT HIS FAT MOUTH IS SHOUTING. |
Burtonj:One thing a dunce like you will soon understand is that there are degrees of anarchy, and you just pressed the top red button by driving away the police. There are countless instances of this happening elsewhere, and it never ends well. Keep being stupid. |
UndilutedFaxt:Thanks for your common sense approach, and sorry for your loss. I always tell people they underestimate what they have in Nigeria. You have grown men saying ignorant stuff like ''the police don't do anything except extort money at checkpoints''. It's just pure foolishness. That is the height of ignorance. The police patrol the streets at night searching for armed robbers. It is not your flimsy gate or fence that keeps robbers from raiding you. It is the presence of the police. It is the police that keep the masses safe from armed robbers. Even the mere presence of a policeman or police checkpoint is a deterrent to armed robbers and criminals. To say ''oh they extort money from motorists, so let's get rid of them'' is the ultimate case of throwing away the baby with the bath water. |
Lazycapitalist2:Bro, I've said it before, IGBO PEOPLE DON'T HAVE COMMON SENSE. Stop trying to reason with them. They act first then think later, and when they finally think, their narcissism won't let them admit the failures of their actions. How somebody cannot know that killing and chasing away the police will INSTANTLY lead to an exponential rise in crime, I've no idea. |
Burtonj:That you got 350 likes (so far) for your comment shows how deeply sick-minded many of you Igbo separatists are. Your region is crumbling before your eyes into chaos, but you're liking a comment that says, ''Yes. No problem!''. Sick people. You're cursed to be blind and thoughtless. |
life2017:I'm sure Nnamdi Kanu will reimburse them. No wahala. |
puremaker7:In Nigeria of 1960, 90% of the population were illiterate village peasants. That figure is down to 34% today. No road led to your village in 1960. Just a footpath. Most likely, nobody in, or from your village owned a car in 1960. Owning a bicycle was the sign that you'd 'arrived'. Cars were only for the super-duper rich. In 1960, most children walked around naked and barefooted even in the cities, and there was not a single power station in the entire country. Kainji dam was our first power plant, commissioned in 1964 by the Balewa administration. The colonialists used large imported industrial generators to power GRAs where their people stayed. Everyone else used lamp and candle. Forget about communications and access to phones. You couldn't survive 2 days in the Nigeria of 1960. Independence was the best thing that ever happened to you. |
Tizu:You were not entitled to a DIME after you LOST THE WAR. You arrogant, demented narcissist. You are even ALIVE today because of Gowon's 'No Victor, No Vanquished' policy which stopped federal soldiers from going in to finish the job after you surrendered. And you're talking of money? Do you know anything about warfare? Do you think it is the job of the winner to give money to the loser after the conflict? You don't know you're even lucky to retain control of your cities and towns after losing a war in which you surrendered? Look, Mr Man, don't annoy me this morning. Go and study the history of warfare. When you lose a war, you lose EVERYTHING. Gowon's magnanimity was an aberration that shocked the entire world. Be thankful. |
mouthofThegod:Funny how an insolent traitor like you sees himself as an angel. In times past you'd be hanged and quartered for subversion. Thank your lucky stars for Nigeria's democratic advances. |
mouthofThegod:You're stuck in a little cocoon of hopelessness, but many Nigerians are on a totally different wavelength. That is why we have so many successful businesses and ventures across Nigeria. The economy will keep growing regardless of what you say or think. |
Curious345:Small boy talking rubbish. If they send you to 1960s Nigeria you could not survive for 2 days. |
majamajic:Bro, in today's digital world, 30 years is a mighty long time. ![]() |
mouthofThegod:How is it a joke? |

lucky999:So why aren't you in your biafraland NOW, instead of depending on Nigerians for your existence? |
Sammy07:It will set Igbos back forever. In terms of sheer economics, secession is a suicidal move for Igbos. Look at Air Peace. Chief Allen Onyema. Simply by operating a fleet of aircraft WITHIN NIGERIAN AIRSPACE, he became the biggest airline in West Africa. Now, based on those profits, he's expanding to New York, London, Dubai, Jamaica etc. He's competing with Ethiopian Airlines for African dominance. Could he have done this if he was a guy from Sierra Leone? Or Congo? Impossible. Where is the market in Sierra Leone or Congo to support such a heavy airline investment? Even in Ghana. He couldn't. Those ones that only have one serious airport in the entire country. Being NIGERIAN is a blessing for Igbos, Africa's most industrious ethnicity, with free access to the MARKET of NIGERIA, a country projected to become the 3rd most populous on Earth after India and China by 2050. I mean, you're basically sitting on a goldmine here. Igbos could easily become the richest ethnic group in Africa by being part of the Nigerian family. INNOSON? Without Nigeria, how can INNOSON grow to the next level? Who will patronise them to reach that level? WHY? Only NIGERIANS have a reason to buy INNOSON vehicles, today. Without the Nigerian market, INNOSON might as well pack up and close shop. I guarantee you right now, if you walk into the INNOSON CEO, Chief Innocent Chukwuma's office in Nnewi, and suggest the break-up of Nigeria, he will chase you out of his office. |
iammo:You're right. Like you, I find it odd that some of the most vociferous, fanatical IPOB separatists on Nairaland are resident in Lagos, Abuja, Jos, Kano, and other places, and earning their living there. I think these people actually believe their lives will not be touched if this secession of a thing happens. Somebody needs to wake them up, seriously. ![]() What I outlined in my write-up is actually the best case scenario, where the split is done amicably At the OTHER end of the spectrum is warfare leading to a catastrophic decline in living standards. |
betshopagent:I'm actually Igbo. |
ReubenE:How? |
Doradorwa:True talk. But I just feel the urge to make them use some small sense. ![]() |
optionalY09:How do you know? |
Nigeria Break-Up Could Lead To The Extinction Of The Igbo Race! IPOBs keep saying ''let everybody go his own way''. But if that happens, Igbos will suffer the most. There are millions of Igbo people living all over Nigeria. They will be deported back to Igboland en masse in the event of a breakup. Can Igboland handle 20 million angry, hungry Igbo returnees with lost businesses and sources of income? How will you employ them? How will you house them? How will you feed them? How will you educate them? How will the Igbo states, currently reliant on monthly federal allocation from Abuja, replace that income, since no more oil money? (The Niger Delta would not be part of 'Biafra' of course) So what will they do for money? Sell coal? Nobody wants any gaddemn coal or palm oil in today's world. Igbo industrialists, manufacturers, businessmen, and traders are dependent on access to the Nigerian market - Africa's biggest by a long shot - for their continued progress and expansion. A breakup of Nigeria destroys that access, as whatever nation(s) takes its place will raise protectionist measures to build up their own industries. I just don't see how this ends well for the Igbo people. I fear a break-up of Nigeria could lead to the extinction of the Igbo race! |
criuze:Dude, if everybody goes his own way, how far with millions of your Igbo people living all over Nigeria? They will be deported back to Igboland en masse. Can Igboland handle 20 million angry, hungry Igbo returnees with lost businesses and sources of income? How will you employ them? How will you house them? How will you feed them? How will you educate them? How will the Igbo states, currently reliant on federal allocation from Abuja, replace that income, since no more oil money? What will they do for money? Sell coal? Nobody wants any fcking coal or palm oil in today's world. |
Igbochief001:Dude, use your head. This was just a selection of the most recent news from page 1 and 2 of Google. |

joke of the century..
