Our lack of an expansionist drive is costing us heavily in this point in time. If we were expansionist we won't be having this problem today of certain groups boldly laying claim over sections of our people. Today an Igbo cannot emphatically stand in Opobo and say it is Igboland.

If these people are our people it will be a travesty to let Ijaw grab them in, even if they are ignorant.

Modified.
Also can one explain to me why majority of them in Opobo bear Jaja as name. It's rather strange seeing so many (unrelated) would be bearing the same name. Considering that the word "Jaja" does not mean anything and is only a poor corruption of something else.

On several Opobo Facebook pages there's been a renewed effort by Ijaw nationalists to rope in Opobo into the Ijaw fold and the people are not resisting. The people are been encouraged to do away with anything Igbo inclined in favor of Ijaw.

By the recent trends I can say there's a growing impression amongst the Igbo folk that the minorities will be a bad addition to our country. These days I welcome such news. Hopefully, we will not form a country with them.

Heartbender:
Then go with your five states Na

Our people in Delta etc are not minority, they are going. Say no to ogogoro people.

We don't want minorities in Biafra.

Rossikk:
Are you trying to make us feel guilty? Do you feel guilty over your plans to steal the resources which 200 million people depend on to live?

You're not guilty about mowing down innocent people. That you've admitted. It's okay.

Who plans to steal what? You guys live in a dream in the Niger Delta.

And so their actions are therefore justified. You did well.

Nairaland is controls by Yorubas and yorubas fears nigeria division

Tufia.

Look at the speed mods used to bring unverified news to fp because it's anti Ipob. Nairaland na very useless place o.

If I'm to say it may have emerged already or plans are underway. There's been reports I've been monitoring that suggests so.

Can you see how the city is planned with the tress lining every street. And modern housing.

Decongesting Lagos and congesting Anambra... Robbing Peter to pay Paul!

They should congest us, no p

RTSC:
Pdp was in power for 16 years. The onus was on them to do this. It's a serious failure on their part.
No matter your loyalties, you need to be brave enough to accept that.

They're all the same. PDP, APC et al.

Up buhari

Buhari didn't effect anything. The maritime owners threatened to ditch Apapa entirely if the government doesn't decongest the port. So they have to look for alternatives, in this case using barges to ship to Onitsha.

If you're saying this because of the port better know the situation is out of their hands. Ensuring only Lagos Port is point of call all these years has put them in a bad corner. The port is now bringing huge negative returns. Hence they had to rethink.

[quote author= post=92997326]Yes, there are custom officers and agents that will clear it at the port of destination[/quote]Wow. That's great. In the future that port will need to be expanded.

Dredging the river will bring saltwater upstream.

[quote author= post=92996893]Goods destin to Onitsha will be cleared in Onitsha not Apapa, it's more cheaper with barge, a Lash barge can carry 385[/quote]Even if the ship berthed at Apapa?

The dredging will bring in saltwater upstream.

lacasera14:
So there's Port in Onitsha

Ikwerre people no dey travel na.

I want to ask, , Horsepower102 etc if the goods are moved with barges to Onitsha who accrues the benefits from clearing, Lagos port or Onitsha port?

Excellent turnaround. Lagos has become choked, forcing them to redirect. Cheers to all in the East.

[quote author= post=92965453]Enemies of progress, they so much wish us evil, they were hoping Buhari will do their bidding, they were major people frustrating Onitsha port, the former NIWA Boss was from their tribe, Buhari replaced him with Igbo man from Nnewi they are the ones working round the clock to make sure Onitsha port and Baro port start receiving containers

Sadist hiding under Buhari media organization[/quote]So this is NGpatriot? Chai Chai Chai.

The prospects are looking good.

What bothers me now is security along the waterways.

EVILFOREST:
IF ANAMBRA will be part of BIAFRA then count many of us out.
They insult people with DISDAIN.
THE GOVERNOR is very RIGHT.
ANAMBRA treats every other IGBO and IGBO speaking communities in the Delta with so much condescension.

Grow some balls boy. Stop insulting yourself.

Once more Anambra leads. Ekinematics wene, how you see am na?
