OfoIgbo:
Well, access this site http://www.medievalarchives.com/2010/09/25/medieval-cross-influenced-ancient-benin-culture/

Now search for OGANE in that site and observe what Benin royal court described Ogane to the visiting Portuguese explorers in 1498.
Ogane who was obviously an Eze Nri was described as the greatest royal in the now southern Nigeria. Ogane was the only person that can authorise the ascension of any Benin Oba, so basically, Oba Benin kisses the ass of Eze Nri.

Please don't drink rat poison tonight. It wasn't my intention

OfoIgbo:
It is your paedophile Oba of Benin that you must be referring to

Favolly:
Some people are locked in perpetual victimhood. I mean, weren't people from other ethnicities fired too?

While she has a point about tribal nepotism which is very common in all parts of Nigeria, she polluted everything by making it all about herself and her ethnicity. What did she even achieve in all the years that she was in charge?

In saner climes, she would have voluntarily resigned her position after PMB won the elections seeing as she was part of the campaign team that was gallivanting about insulting him. How does she expect to continue to work with someone she so vigorously campaigned against even to the point of outright abuse. IMO, Buhari has been extremely magnanimous to have kept someone like her up to this moment.

Girlbye!

Ezeife enumerated the circum­stances which gave birth to the agita­tion for Biafra as the absence of South Easterners in the President’s first 40 appointments.
He named other sins Buhari had committed against the South East as the removal of the appointment of an Igbo in NIMASA three days after announcement; failure to appoint a South East person to even the sixth and least protocol position in govern­ment in a six geopolitical zone struc­ture like the position of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF); absence of any Igbo person in the National Security Council and dumping other dangerous Boko Har­am prisoners in Ekwulobia Prison, in Anambra State despite massive pro­tests from the people.
Others, according to him, are Bu­hari’s failure to give key ministries to the South East persons;

Saying that Lagos does not benefit from the FG is like saying that the oil producing states are not benefiting from FG

cheruv:
I said Igboland not SE
The SE is just 60% of Igboland, and an Igbo nationalist I'd not entertain the thought of seeing Igboland restricted to the SE alone
Igboland is 43200km², so hang yourself if you don't like it!

omonnakoda:
Do you think the SE should be ONE State?

cheruv:
Israel is 20-27000 km²
Igboland is roughly 43200 km²
If Israel with roughly the size of Igboland is able to be a regional power, Igboland equally has the potentials of being a continental power...after all in 1967, Eastern Nigeria was the fastest growing regional economy in the world
As for the OP,keep up the good work kos your likes strengthen my belief in Nigeria's dissolution

Emekamex:
Palm Oil, Cassava and Yam were major cash crops for the SE region then and I meant the contributions from every region of the country were apparently used to build the ports not just the SE as you want to make it sound like.
My point exactly is that the British didn't build those ports with their own funds but from the collective effort of the whole country which they bossed over as the central government.

Emekamex:
Your excuse that it was built in 1896 by the British is a flawed logic in that the British then were the equivalent of the present day FG; Nigeria was their colony and they used our wealth as a country to carry out those projects.

Lagos state is largest in terms of land mass..bravo

Okupe should STFU....

Caveatemptor:
Onyeka Owenu has always been an opportunist. She has no principles and stands for nothing except her pocket.
I remember in the days of NADECO protests after Moshood Abiolas election was annulled by General Babangida. Onyeka was a staunch supporter of Moshood Abiola and his NADECO group but immediately General Abacha overthrew Mr Shonekans government and became tje maximum ruler Onyeka Owenu quickly jumped ship,abandoned NADECO and became an Abacha apologist. Infact during the one million man march urging General Abacha to transmute into a civillian president,Onyeka Owenu was at the forefront with Abass Akande Obesere,stridently screaming for Abacha to rule for ever.
After the demise of Abacha,Ms Owenu reinvented herself and latched on the coat tails of Stella Obasanjo when Olusegun Obasanjo was president. She was a regular performer at Aso
Rock during that period.
Again during Goodluck and Patience Jonathan presidency Ms Owenu ingrained herself in the presidency and was compensated with her appointment as a DG.
During the last election Ms Owenu was very visible where she used her music to campaign for her principal and rained all kinds of abuse on the incumbent president calling him an illiterate without a school certificate.
And when Mr Jonathan lost the election and the incumbent was sworn in Ms Owenu was again photgraphed kneeling down before Mr Buhari whom she had severely insulted on the campaign trail.
Mr Buhari still left Ms Owenu in her position as a DG for over seven months and she on her part did not have the moral rectitude to tesign her appointment but rather shamelessly continued to serve under an illiterate without a certificate.
Now she plays the victim and flashes the ethnicity master card? The mind boggles.
