The war ended in 1970 and FG constructed roads in the 70s as part of the rebuilding process.

Tell us one road the Drunken Master of Otuoke completed in SE. Please do not mention 2NB here.
we are too quick to shout roads without thinking of other areas. Ebonyi is one of the states in nigeria that lack federal presence in all aspects especially education, and the person you called otuoke master was the one that recognised how important education is and how the state has been found wanting in this area he built a standard federal university in the state. I could remember when i was living with my grand mother at the earliest stage my life in afikpo, she was a rice farmer. she will tell me there are sharing fertilizer lets go get some fertilizer... After standing for hours we normally return with very little fertilizer which will not be enough to cultivate for even 1/100 of her farm. But now i don't think many of these farmers complain much or stand that much to get such little amount of fertilizer again. Then we come to power, tell me was there much functional power installation and infrastructure including power grids in the east? Am not saying it is at its best but there was a significant presence of federal govt in this area or do you disprove that. Lets talk about roads visually all major federal roads in SE/SS Was approved by him for reconstruction.

How can you be lying openly like this?

Which region did you built on your own? Did FGN not pay the Eastern Region of then all the allocations saved up for 3years.

was there a time when FGN refused to pay allocations to your state?

These people and there lies sha.
is bornu,adamawa & other boko haram affected states not give their allocations? Why the call for rehabilitation in those areas? Was there any done by the fg in the civil war affected states?
You saying the fg developed the south east means you are lying to yourself. Apart from gej efforts in these areas and the major express roads constructed in the 70's what other tangible thing have the fg done that is not done because it is a nationwide project/programme

Hmmm,you have spoken from your heart prolly like a true biafran.
I maintain though that those reasons are not enough to want secession.
I think Nnamdi Kanu is the architect of his own arrest because of the hate filled messages he spread while outside the country. He could have called for the movement peacefully and not with threats as no one is a threats to the probiafrans.

I am indifferent about the secession though,I'm only worried about the way your people are going about it.

I can only urge Igbos to channel this energy into how the southeast can further be developed by entrenching accountability in the management of states by the governors.
now we are on the same page. Lets look at things as it is.

as usual you will attack me without giving any concrete answer to my question. This wailing of a thing is just a weak defence. You said GEJ was a total failure and i gave you my points why he is still the best nigeria has produced. You couldn't disprove what i said you resorted "it has no effect on the public" with no reason.
I ask you to list buhari's achievement and you termed me a wailer, that i am too fast to judge someone that said he will pay nigerian unemployed youths #5000 from a grossly recurrent budget.

Your first paragraph centres on a partial reason why you want Biafra I.e,if the present Nigeria Political structure continues this way. Have you ftorgotten the system has been like this for almost a decade? Why hasn't been a strong call for seccession.

Secondly,you mentioned that other Nigerians live outside Nigeria therefore a biafrian can live in Nigeria,really? Why would a Biafrian want to live in a country he loates so much?

You didn't answer my question on sponsors and how the biaran nation would be run.

Someone regards you as 5% and that is the enough reason to secede?

I asked if the probiafrans are ready for war because that is what they are drumming,I have read countless comments here where threats are issued and I watched on channelstv the other day where a lady and some guys claim if they do not release kanu,something else might happen,isn't that a call for war?
the call for biafra have been there for the same past decades if you dont know.
Why is it on the rise now? Well it is because of the utterances of someone who is suppose to be the president of united nigeria.
...Imagine a president openingly saying he will give 5% to people who gave him 5%. Then where is the democracy? Is it you most vote me or it is rigged, corrupt and so on. The simple fact is that buhari's actions and utterances has been too divisive there by opening old wounds. About war? Those guys said their opinion which they are entitled to. Then i ask why should nnamdi kalu be arrested while people like jumaid walk about freely? Simple that arrest alone is a threat to the unity of the nation. This is one of the technicall blunders of this administration. If you want to make arrest on an issue do it holistically or don't try it. They should release him and see how this things die down. Make the people feel they are not threatened. If you look closely you will notice that people that support this are not miscremt as the old fool termed it. They are learned men,women and youths who feel threatened. Imagine the high tendency of dictatorship exhibited at the tribunals. Does that speak well for peace?

Imagine Jonathan presided over a well-institutionalized Nigeria (systems that accurately tracks corruption on its own) and without the distraction of Boko Haram, this country would have become a paragon and an haven for citizens of other African countries whose leaders refuse to relinquish power at the expense of their nation's economic and democratic stability.

I just wish Buhari can maintain a genuine relationship with him despite political differences/pressures for the betterment of the economy/people because even Jonathan's weakness is a great wealth of knowledge for Buhari, much more his strength.
thank you bro. Thank God people still think logical. Lets shun this childish politics, it causes division simple

All these things u have mentioned how did it affect the common man, the power stations u claim he built, did it affect the power situation of the country positively?, Electricity has been deplorable, almajiri schs??, so in d educational sector d only achievement u can point is almajiri sch, serzly almajiri schhuh, who has it helped , has it decrease the number of almajiris in the north, building schs for peeps who do not want it, and mind u, building tht sch was purely political cos he wanted to win the hearts of northerners, but it back fired, Agriculture, has whatever policy he proposed in agriculture affected the common man?, has it been able to reduce the price of food stuffs in the market, dnt we still import rice, meat and oda agricultural produce? tins we r supposed to produce..... My friend, dnt b fooled, A government is judged not on what it achieved on paper buh how its policies affects the masses positively, and Jonathan was a total FAILURE.
i would have ignored this post because of high rate of ignorance and hypocricy. If i am to go through your posts i would find when you most be boasting of stable electricity in your area. Do you think power installations like the power grid for distribution of the electricity, gas supply pipe lines to the power stations and things like that are done in just 6months with body language. My friend you have been so much soaked in change matra. Just wake up try been logical a little. Ask yourself how was power supply in nigeria for the past 10years?, what lead to its increament in recent times?, were there any improvement in power infrastructure and installations in these years, when was it and who was in charge?.
About education, you must be the only one in nigeria that have not noticed the tet fund projects in nigerian tertiary institutions and other education programmes and policies of the past administration.
On agriculture, if you have not benefited, i have my cousin is gainful into agriculture thanks to the policies of the past administration. I wouldn't mind if you can tell me policies of buhari or is he waiting so that he will save money so that he can do eye serve projects just like his party members

Story for the gods, i only hope the SE had realised that getting any slot at the national level, the SW and/or north is/are needed for us to have a go and not the SS that are not reliable neither do they have the population.
2015 had taught us this, i believe we'll strategize better come 2019.
SS/SE is an entity of its own politically such as north been an entity of its own. The question is when will SW Start playing politics of interest of the general south. I took my time analysing nigerian daily from 2010 till date i found out that the SW where the most active in pull him down fight. It seem they don't realize that they are just tools. In politics you should be a reliable block before you can be seen as obstacle else you are just a tool who has no say.

Hello,brothers and sisters from the south eastern part of Nigeria most especially the probiafrans.
I have noticed how far the Biafra movement is going and I commend the zeal of every individual towards achieving the Biafran nation.
I have a few questions to ask and I sincerely hope to get enlightened from here.
in as must as i like Biafra to be a nation of its own in the possible future if this political structure continues or at least have a relatively semi autonomy within nigeria in a well restructured/unbiased system of things. i will not sit back and watch people with ill-cooked logic spreed their ugly propaganda against my people with a so called elders statesman(the ugly obj) calling my people miscremts
1. How do you intend to bring every Igbo together? Is it that every Igbo scattered in all part of Nigeria will move to the East and abandoned their great investments?
how have you brought nigerians together, are nigerians not living outside the country or did their host countries take the investments? This question is very shabby and lacks logic
2. What are the benefits set aside to enjoy in the Biafra nation?
3. How do you intend to get money to run the nation?
4. Who are the overall sponsors of the movement?
how are other nations financed, what makes a nation if not sense of oneness where no one will tell you are 5%, where people will not say we are managing you, where you wouldn't be regard as a threat just because you are from an area, where no one will not wake up say openly we will make the nation ungovernorable, where they will be love for one's nation and many more. Do this exist in nigeria? If no forget about biafra an channel your energy in making nigeria better else expect this kind of actions when ever some people feels short changed as what happened with the growth of boko haram.
5. What protection do these sponsors have in place for the "foot soldiers"?
a city foot soldiers? Indeed this is what i have been saying making of unguilded derogatory statements about others shows the kind of love
6. Are you prepared for war?
There are other questions I wish to ask but I need answers to these few first. I am very much interested in the movement and so I need to be enlightened.
Thanks.
i think the last question is too barbaric and it is one of the reason people will keep asking for secession. Instead of asking what is the reason for this cry of secession?, what can we do about it? You are talking of war in this 21st century. Do you think nigeria it'self is ready for war.

Buhari still have a long way to go, let's give him time. He is showing signs of progress in the right direction.
people of course gave him a chance to prove himself but instead he choose to make threating moves or do you think biafran agitation is born out hatred? No no it is not because of hatred but because of his utterances,ill conceived moves/selections and ugly mis under-standing of the entity Nigeria. Not only that in six months there is no clear cut policies, no agenda only propaganda and things i term primitive selection of corruption cases including the biased tribunal outcome

INSTEAD OF THE IGBOS TO STOP HATING OTHER TRIBES AND WORK TOGETHER WITH THE REST OF THE COUNTRY SO THEY CAN PRODUCE THE NEXT PRESIDENT, THEY ARE SCREAMING BIAFRA AS IF THE SOUTHEAST WILL TURN TO DUBAI OVERNIGHT IF BIAFRA IS DECLARED. THEY KEEP MISCALCULATING POLITICALLY AND RESORT TO HATE AND BILE TO VENT THEIR FRUSTRATIONS WHEN THINGS DONT GO THEIR WAY. NNAMDI KANU WAS TOO COMFORTABLE IN LONDON AND I'M SURE AFTER LOOSING HIS FREEDOM HE WOULD WISH HE COULD TURN BACK THE HANDS OF TIME. HE BRAINWASHED MANY IGBOS AND IT'S OBVIOUS THE GUY IS FIGHTING PROXY WARS FOR THE PDP. WITH THE RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN THE EAST, NO ONE WILL EVER VOTE FOR A TRIBE AGITATING FOR SECESSION.

abagworo
this may be part of the reasons but i don't think this started because of t.a orji
Politics › The Myth and Gross Mis-perception Of SOUTH EASTERN NIGERIA by Scholes007(op):
Years now,many has this view of south east been economically,industrially and infrastructurally under developed. This is mainly due to the high unexposure of many especially south western part of the country. With this high rate of ignorance about the region(SE).many rely on 'hear say' to know the region and its people,in turn this breeded high negative perception of the people due to what i term evil propaganda against the citizens of the area.
Allow me to deviate a little, the igbo believe that commerce and industries is the only hope for economic emancipation of their people, hence the reason for their quest to be self reliant in the economic,commercial and industrial sectors of the nation. This made their citizens less interested in politics, as they view it as highly corrupt venture with no level playing field in Nigeria today.
Due to their little shortcoming in politics after Nigerian civil war in 1970, other majority ethnic groups who were already viewing them as threat resort to politics of nepotism and ethnicity hence used it to undermine their interest,with fear that if 'they stand,they will secede'. This lead to the highly biased creation of states, the gross hatred & fear of any igbo dominance,'paint the igbo black' and so on. In time this ugly development became imbibed into the fabrics of other ethnic groups, with it's tentacles strangling Nigerian politics today.
Why did i bring this up?, ofcourse it is because this politically induced mis perception also affects the view of most people about the region named "SOUTH EAST"(which is dominated by the igbos) with ripple effect on its sister region "SOUTH SOUTH".
I Find it suprisingly difficult that someone(NIGERIAN) on my home town Uturu in Abia state will be asking questions like
*where are the red mud houses?
*are you sure this is a village?
* i thought everywhere is erosion in isuikwuato? And things of such nature.
Could this be that they are ignorant or erronous perception of the region due to high floating of negative propaganda against the people. This is uncalled for and must stop for peace, harmonious and prosperous nation

i was expecting such from you. People like you with big grammar,paper analysis will always rely on online information. Take it or leave it the last administration did a lot in enhancing the economic situation of SS/SE region by making sure that power infrastructure, federal presence and economic policies which were visually non-existence in these regions were provide. Example Aba as a city began to fail due to gross power failure prior before jonathan. Been an industrial city, majority of its activities relied on power which was non existent(include power infrastructures) hence the heavy loss of industries in this region. Jonathan essentially laid a solid foundation for revival of the economic activities in these areas . He brought sense of belonging to these areas thats why the attack on him(jonathan) is perceived as a technical attack to the progress of the two regions and the investments therein. The lopsided appointments also brewed up the situation. I know many of you will just sit in the comfort of your homes and start typing with ignorance how un-intelligent and short sighted the igbos are and things like that without thinking first about your own welfare.
