Do we need any other proof that Buhari sponsors Boko haram?
They have already taken charge of our foreign affairs

Large Yoruba booobs.
She would have made a nice nanny. The children's mom wouldn't have worried about breastfeeding.

unite4real:
does rebuilding the schools and villages of the locals amount to compensating the Igbos as well? is there any Igbo man among the internally displaced person's camp? do not compare the damages done to these locals to that of Igbos at all. If you hear the sad tale of how the locals are assembled and assassinated, how their children are abducted and turned to sex slaves, how their entire villages are burnt down and generations wiped out, you will feel nothing but pity rather than compare to the loss of the Igbos and asking for equal compensation.

Some Igbos live among the locals and suffered the same losses.
Understand.

ezeagu:
All of this is really about nothing. Everyone is already in independent states. The coinage of 'SS' and 'SE' is nothing more than geopolitical markers that indicate unity and camaraderie, if they come together and create the 'east' it doesn't take any power away from each other, it does not have governmental power. The SS is a fallacy anyway because Akwa Ibom doesn't have anything more in common with Bayelsa than it does with Abia State. If you don't get it then you don't get it and move on.

Who are you to complain on their behalf? If the Southern minorities are happy to be identified as the south south irrespective of where they are geographically, who are you to feel otherwise? You see where the suspicion these guys have about Igbos come from? Thoughtless and stubborn people like you.
I am just happy that majority of Igbos aren't thinking like you else we will only get further division.

Kidnapping in the South west has really gone out of hands.

unite4real:
This is why i hate tribal statements. who told them that it was only Igbos that were affected in the north due to the insurgencies. all nationals and tribes were equally affected. Even the locals are the worse hit. so what is this one talking about compensating the Igbos.

Did you read it well?
He said the Igbos should be compensated together with the locals.

Jokay07:
this is why you people were told to go and sempe inside lagoon, wetin bring parental abuse into dis matter now, sore loser

It is not abuse, you and I know that he can't be old enough to have owned a property in Port Harcour as far back as 1967, so I had to ask about his father and grand father, unfortunatley then don't have either.

http://www.informationng.com/2015/03/ijaw-youths-express-regret-that-niger-delta-did-not-support-igbos-during-biafra-war.html

That is one man speaking about the past. Have you done a survey with Niger deltans today to find out if they want to be referred as the ''east''? How many Niger deltans today will be happy to go with Biafra if Nigeria disintegrates today instead of their own ND republic?
I keep asking, can't the 2 regions cooperate in every way possible while recognising their differences? You and your likes are filled with inferirority complex.

ezeagu:
Alright. You were never here for understanding or bridge building it seems. I responded to you cordially and you responded with threats. As I said, Nigeria needs to ask itself why eastern unity is such a problem, including to some easterners themselves.

By the way, if you think I'd open this thread to 'dominate' another group or without evidence of strengthening relations in the east, then you're mistaken.

Have you asked those people of their opinion on referring to all of them as the east? This is the useless assumption Ojukwu made with Biafra only for him to cry betrayal at the end. You can strenghthen relations without lumping all of them into the east.

ezeagu:
The idea that the Igbo people are all in the 'south east' and other ethnic groups are all in Bayelsa and Rivers is an old idea. When you understand how interconnected everyone, and that's everyone in the east is, you would understand why I would use the term easterner. Why would Ndoki be in a different region from Obigbo, or Egbema be straddling two separate regions in Imo State and Rivers States. Can anyone even define the south south? The 'south east' and 'south south' has done little politically, if you look at recent events you will see that it's an eastern political force that has emerged.

Keep riding in your folly then. Attitudes like yours is what makes these people suspicious of the Igbos.
I can assure you that you will only achieve the complete opposite of what you desire with this... Further division. The Ndoki and Egbemas you mentioned aren't the only groups in that region.
Just continue in your domineering fooly and see where it leads you.

ezeagu:
This is what I wrote:

Calling all of them ''east'' is making the same mistake all over again. Where is the identity the crave for?
This is foolishness I must say.
Can't their be economic and political cooperation without lumping all of them together into one 'east'?

ezeagu:
You're a fanatic for a political party that is vehemently despised by 90% + of the East so what would you say otherwise? Do I blame you.

Agents of disunity.

Guy, you people are making a mistake again.
We can cooperate with ourselves politically and economically without forcing ourselves to be one. We have to give others the recognition they deserve, no need lumping ourselves as one.

UncleJudax:
There are also ilajes in Lagos. Carved into or carved upon, they are Ondoians, and Ondo is a member of oil producing states, and by extension, a member of the NDDC.

Hope you get the drift wella.

Where does Yoruba come in?

abu12:
[size=16pt]change is here, kogi state will b the first northern state to join oil producing in nigeria by august 2015, kogi will recover it stolen oilwell back from anambra [/size]

Keep dreaming...

GodMode:
Ondo is a state in the South West.

Ondo is also an oil producing state.

Ondo has been producing oil for years...

I don't see why oil discovery in Lagos is a big deal..

You mean the Ijaw areas that Obasanjo criminally attached to Ondo state?

abduljabbar4:
Jealousy desnt pay. We don't have oil in my state but I'm so happy

Bro you don't understand. We have been hearing this for years, the article is even a 2014 article. I can bet anything that at the end of this year, not a drop of oil will be produced in Lagos.

Adeyinka12:
only south south,south east generate Nigeria gdp.i think this to be stop now,especially mega phone tribe (igbo)

Whenever the Niger delta people want to call for control of their resources we start hearing of phantom discoveries of oil in Sokoto, Borno, Lagos etc.
It has been happening for many years.
There is no drop of oil In lagos.
As of now, your states still depend on another man's oil for survival.

dinachi:
If....so you are doubting that. Well thank God for Buharis victory! Igbos now know their real enemy....the Ijaws! Never again will we vote for a conniving, clueless, silly bowler hat wearing Ijaw man. Under Buhari, we will push for compensation for the abandoned property ...at least we will get a fair hearing. Jonathan the hater of Igbos will never get our support ever again. We will also push for the cancellation of the second niger bridge toll gate that Jonathan initiated to humiliate the Igbos and put us in perpetual slavery for 25 years.

You keep writing trash. Like I said before, you are speaking for yourself and not Igbos.

They dig up this nonsense every 2 years to console themselves.

dinachi:
Why is it that it is poor foolish people like you who does not have any landed property that trivializes the siezed Igbo properties now worth billions of naira under an Ijaw governor Alfred Dieete Spiff? Jonathan who didn't lift a finger to right these grievous wrongs against ndigbo by his people the Ijaws inspite of their support is the one to be blamed by ohaneze,instead of Buhari that is yet to take oath of office.

You this fool, if there are abandoned properties, it is those who can claim ownership of those properties with proof that should be leading the charge, not people like you who cannot lay claim to any whatsoever. If those who lost properties have decided to move on, who are wretched people like you to continue harping on about it?

dinachi:
How many of your father and grandfather were displaced by Boko haram? Can you point to any? FOOL! Senseless fools like you, is the main reason for Igbo moving to APC enmass after Buhari win. We have realized that our worst enemy is the Ijaw man.

We know those who are displaced by Boko Haram, we hear their cries everyday.
Why is it that it is foolish and wretched people like you who cannot point to even half plot of land owned by their fore fathers in PH that are always shouting about abandoned properties? I haven't seen a single one of them that can point to any property belonging to them that was seized.
You are speaking for yourself and poor family not Igbos.

We don dey hear the story tey tey!
There is no drop of oil in Lagos

She has tried her best for many years, she should let someone else try.

dinachi:
Ohaneze should quit embarrassing themselves. They are a bunch of clowns. Did Jonathan right the wrongs against ndigbo by his Ijaw brothers? Where is compensation for abandoned properties in port Harcourt?

How many abandoned properties does your father or grand father have in Port harcourt? Can you point any?
Fool!!!!

Rochas has used all the money for Buhari's campaign

temitemi1:
Mr President is right on this. GEJ my HERO! FAYOSE my ROLE MODEL!!

You've got a really worthy role model there.

roysean:
I guess GEJ rejected this because he doesn't want GMB to think he wants to reduce the power of the president because he's vacating aso rock and so that GMB won't come
after him for the trillions his govt has looted.

Exactly!

ITbomb:
Jona, what are you doing
?

whittle down the powers of Buhari so that he understands that democracy is different from military rule.

C'mon, do this last thing for me

I strongly believe Buhari has a hand in this. They probably have an agreement.

Resource control!!!

Unless an Igbo man will head the ministry, they can forget it.
Greedy people!

Is the man confirming that Lagos is no man's land?
They like the Federal government concentrating Nigeria's resources on Lagos but complain when the place is called no man's land.
You can't have it all.

Did Buhari bribe Jonathan to reject this amendment?
He is the only one likely to benefit from this.
