Akhenaten:
Even my very own Igbo people, do not understand the plight of the Niger Deltans. We say, it serves the Ijo right for not supporting Biafra. That they deserve what they get, without realizing that we would have dominated this region in all of honesty if Biafra has succeeded. And the Ijo had every right to fear majority domination after all they have been through in the ages starting with British aggression as British merchant men subjugated the people of this region all in the name of capitalism and colonialism.

Bovine Excrement!

Dude - poster. World domination was not started by the Igbos, neither was economic domination. I get angry when fellow Igbo people sit down and accuse their fellow brethren of economic domination. Dude, it is the result of hard work, perseverance, diligence and determination to succeed.

This is the singular reason why the white folks dominate us in almost every aspect, they see opportunities, they take it.

[size=1pt]I think you should see Igbo economic domination as a blessing for the future. It can serve as a unifying factor for West and Central Africa.[/size]


Now back to the discussion in focus. The last time I was in Bayelsa, a sachet of pure water was NGN10 while it sold in other parts of the country for NGN5 - what is my argument here? Bayelsa is surrounded by the water bodies more than any other state in the federation. Why can't they produce sachet water at cheaper rates? This the question, I threw at my Bayelsan colleague here in the UK. His response was there is so much money in Bayelsa that they can afford to purchase sachet water at NGN20 if the need be.

Akhenaten:
They are basically the same people. The fact that they practice different religions is the problem. This is similar to the Yoruba population. They have both Christians & Muslims. Just like the Egyptian people have both Christian and Muslims. Normally there is peace amongst these two religions in Egypt.

That is far different from what occurs in Nigeria.

Your argument might sound logical but it isn't.

I am an Igbo guy and I did my NYSC at Sokoto State. I met some Muslims and Northerners with a different perspective; I interacted effectively with them Religion-wise, Politics-wise, NigerDelta-wise, and other topics on individual aspirations. To be candid, any time I chose to go out of my corps members lodge, there is an Hausa man readily available to assist me with a lift - twice I was conveyed to my destination by an Imam(with very big gemu).

Inasmuch as we do have our difference in tribe, religion, education, etc, all we need to do is to find a common meeting point. This point is the future. The future that defines how we see ourselves, how we choose to move forward, how we see our children interact with each other.

This issue goes beyond the Nigerian borders, it is in ECOWAS, the division looks like the iron curtain - Christian South and Muslims North. A solution is needed and Egypt is ahead in developing it. All we need is to stand up as well so that we can redefine our future.

understand!

Egyptian Muslims standing up for Egyptian Coptic Christians, I hope one day Nigerians Muslims or Christians will do same.

[size=18pt]Egypt's Muslims attend Coptic Christmas mass, serving as "human shields" [/size]

Egypt’s majority Muslim population stuck to its word Thursday night. What had been a promise of solidarity to the weary Coptic community, was honoured, when thousands of Muslims showed up at Coptic Christmas eve mass services in churches around the country and at candle light vigils held outside.
From the well-known to the unknown, Muslims had offered their bodies as “human shields” for last night’s mass, making a pledge to collectively fight the threat of Islamic militants and towards an Egypt free from sectarian strife.

“We either live together, or we die together,” was the sloganeering genius of Mohamed El-Sawy, a Muslim arts tycoon whose cultural centre distributed flyers at churches in Cairo Thursday night, and who has been credited with first floating the “human shield” idea.

Among those shields were movie stars Adel Imam and Yousra, popular Muslim televangelist and preacher Amr Khaled, the two sons of President Hosni Mubarak, and thousands of citizens who have said they consider the attack one on Egypt as a whole.

“This is not about us and them,” said Dalia Mustafa, a student who attended mass at Virgin Mary Church on Maraashly Street. “We are one. This was an attack on Egypt as a whole, and I am standing with the Copts because the only way things will change in this country is if we come together.”

In the days following the brutal attack on Saints Church in Alexandria, which left 21 dead on New Year’ eve, solidarity between Muslims and Copts has seen an unprecedented peak. Millions of Egyptians changed their Facebook profile pictures to the image of a cross within a crescent – the symbol of an “Egypt for All”. Around the city, banners went up calling for unity, and depicting mosques and churches, crosses and crescents, together as one.

The attack has rocked a nation that is no stranger to acts of terror, against all of Muslims, Copts and Jews. In January of last year, on the eve of Coptic Christmas, a drive-by shooting in the southern town of Nag Hammadi killed eight Copts as they were leaving Church following mass. In 2004 and 2005, bombings in the Red Sea resorts of Taba and Sharm El-Sheikh claimed over 100 lives, and in the late 90’s, Islamic militants executed a series of bombings and massacres that left dozens dead.

This attack though comes after a series of more recent incidents that have left Egyptians feeling left out in the cold by a government meant to protect them.

Last summer, 28-year-old businessman Khaled Said was beaten to death by police, also in Alexandria, causing a local and international uproar. Around his death, there have been numerous other reports of police brutality, random arrests and torture.

Last year was also witness to a ruthless parliamentary election process in which the government’s security apparatus and thugs seemed to spiral out of control. The result, aside from injuries and deaths, was a sweeping win by the ruling party thanks to its own carefully-orchestrated campaign that included vote-rigging, corruption and widespread violence. The opposition was essentially annihilated. And just days before the elections, Copts - who make up 10 percent of the population - were once again the subject of persecution, when a government moratorium on construction of a Christian community centre resulted in clashes between police and protestors. Two people were left dead and over 100 were detained, facing sentences of up to life in jail.

The economic woes of a country that favours the rich have only exacerbated the frustration of a population of 80 million whose majority struggle each day to survive. Accounts of thefts, drugs, and violence have surged in recent years, and the chorus of voices of discontent has continued to grow.

The terror attack that struck the country on New Year’s eve is in many ways a final straw – a breaking point, not just for the Coptic community, but for Muslims as well, who too feel marginalized, oppressed, and overlooked by a government that fails to address their needs. On this Coptic Christmas eve, the solidarity was not just one of religion, but of a desperate and collective plea for a better life and a government with accountability.

terrible!

90 percent oil minerals in the south
dominated by Christians and Negroid Africans

its simple deduction.

the southsouth formation will be broken if uduaghan wins

MOBO! I swear you must be a superstar. Just one thread and the entire world is on it within few hours; I bet this topic will exceed 10 pages by the 24th hour mark of your post. 190 calls upon you for a response to https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-579438.0.html#msg7463624 and your answer is spectacular.

Inasmuch as hate to see Nigerian women wiped like this, I am in total support of your post. It's everywhere you go just like MTN or Coca-Cola. Nigerian women can be very manipulative, greedy, distrustful, etc. Kicked one out recently though.

sochan:
Is this not the same Mbadinuju, who refuse to pay salaries for almost 2yrs. A big thief. He has should shut his dirty mouth, he lacks all moral authority to say anything

same Mbadinuju was alleged to have assassinated the NBA chairman and his wife in Anambra. Same Mbadinuju was using staffs salary to pay political godfathers for over 2yrs. Same Mbadinuju, during his tenure, school children remained at home for almost 1yr, making them to move to Enugu for schooling.
