Pls clear all the miscreants from all parts of the country.
Both militant, boko haram and idiotic pigs of Biafra

...so that your born to rule rubbish would continue forever and ever? You see you parasitic life...Have you ever seen the leeches, the creatures in the pic below...who deliberately want to leave their hosts? NEVER!!

Yyeske:
OBJ fixed the Onitsha -Owerri road and still remains the best in the SE, late Yar'adua tried dredging the River Niger, tell me just one road GEJ executed. He even stopped the dredging of the niger river.

If Obsanjo did all that, why was he at logger heads with Oji Kalu the governor of Abia state? Why did the House of assembly members go on hunger strike...I think you were very young then...and don't know your left from your right!!

EazyMoh:
Go and check the record of how much and how many times those roads were given contract to mostly politicians from the same region from 1999 till date. With SGF, SP and powerful ministers not to mention GEJ the adopted Igbo son. Or are you telling us that are all part of the Grand conspiracy at the federal level to marginalize the SE?
No region is getting what it deserves in terms of development, but claiming the only victim while not absolving your leaders who loot the funds for your projects.

It is a shame that you don't believe there is a grand design to punish the SE people because of the civil war. You think the Sanusi was foolish to make that statement?

“Sincerely speaking, the South-East has not had a fair-share since the civil war. Their marginalization is quite obvious. But if the policy of reconstruction, reintegration and reconciliation of Gen.Gowon and the late Gen. Murtala’s administrations had continued, the agitation by the few Igbo for Biafra state would have been a thing of the past. Balarebe Musa

igwebuike01:
With which money? Enugu was never a rich state. Sullivan achieved a lot with his debt and we commend him for that, but don't expect magic from the person that inherited the debts. secondly, Enugu state died so that Enugu city may live, now the city has to sacrifice too for the hinterlands since it already has solid infrastructure that can take it for a couple of years with good maintenance.

Which money are Ebony and Anambra using for the physical development of their state capitals.

If he get mind make he come Abuja come talk am, we Will like to hear from him personally"

S, Drunk...why do you like reaping where you did not sow?

If only this DAN thing could start from looking at the root cause of why people still wanting Biafra after 50 years. Forget about the hate speech for a moment, as even Buhari uses hate speech and actions. Have the things that caused the Biafra war still there today? I assure you once you start working in the direction of ensuring there is equity, fairness and justice...the hate speech and Biafra agitation will die a slow death. Hoping the agitation has crossed the rubicon, though.

You would be wasting your time, trying to stop hate speech while the issues lingers.

sekxyqueen:
come and see how awon afonjas will avoid this thread

They have...just 8 comments... If it were about Igbos, Kanu or IPOB...It will be hitting the 7th or 8th page...by now. I don't know why.

OrestesDante:


I just tire for this people

...but you are too scared to support them to leave you alone...why. It would have been an issue If they had wanted to take some of your territory, but no...

[quote author=raker300 post=60178661]after drinking gutter water, you folks will come here to spill rubbish.

Is Kanu a political office holder?

Stop drinking gutter water


The Ibo man's debating skill is limited to insults and image sharing. Nothing of substance. That's why the Ibo region is still not developing today.

Small Igbo region is not developed by the federal government because of their insults...Can you see how intelligent you are....

kn23h:
This is what I mean when I say you're not politically savvy.

Even in the US, you have political leaders from each state fighting for their people's development.

Jeez. You think things get done by whining?

...and when the politicians in the East can't fight and the people chose IPOB who they believe can fight for them...Why are you happy that the army should kill unarmed civilians...IPOB members? Who is whining? Is Sanusi Igbo?

kn23h:
Yesterday they woke up insulting every tribe. Today they wake up wondering why they're hated.

I wonder what tomorrow brings.

Anyway crying marginalization no be small thing. The group that would be crying are Ijaw. They actually generate revenue for Nigeria and their region brings in wealth, yet they're grossly marginalized. Up till today, I still don't know what the SE region brings to Nigeria.

Where they insulting every tribe in 1999? And the north that have everything and don't generate a dim...should do what?

OrestesDante:
Where is Kanu?

Why can't you call on your Kanu to come and help you repair your roads now?

You think you're the only ones that can fight. Federal government can fight too.


Look at them.... [img]https://www.nairaland.com/attachments

Illiterates everywhere...

kn23h:
First tell us which roads obasanjo and yaradua fixed .... then tell us who fought for the development of those roads.

If Ibos were as politically savvy as Yorubas, trust me, they'd get fixed.

Are you telling us that GEJ also neglected the SE?

When people talk about fighting for things, I get amused. Is Nigeria a jungle or a zoo that you must fight for things? Are there not set laws to nake things happen without figthing?

kn23h:
They will sit here and blame FG but if you ask them if their consistents and representatives have fought for federal road development in their region, they'll stay mum.

Ibos, take your leaders to task. Ibo leaders are the most useless and lazy leaders amongst the big tribe.

Are you for real...What have got to say about the SEDC bill fought by the representative that was turned down? Are you not ashamed that SE, a small land area could have this number of federal roads? You know withinh your heart that the federal government has a punitive policy on the people in the area. A good government, don't need represeentative to ensure that all parts of the country have good roads...

Can you check if Ghana, Togo, Benin, Cameroun have a particular region, which is have these kind of roads? I don't think so....but you wicked people will be the ones carrying IPOB matter on your head...

kn23h:
Tell us why GEJ didn't develop these roads?

If you tell us why Obasanjo and Yaradua didn't develop those roads for 10 years, then I might be able to tell you why Johnathan didn't do those roads in 6 years...and why Buhari is finding it very hard to do in 2 years...

modelmike7:
Hope the FG and the governors do something about this ASAP.
Na beg we dey beg o

If you beg from today till eternity, nothing will be done. People have been begging for decades and nothing has been done. Do you remember in 1999, when when members of Abia state house of assemble went on hunger strike because of these bad federal roads?
I don't know why the federal government are heartless. Why punishing people for the deeds of their parents? The civil war ended 50 years ago but as you can see, it has not really ended.

Are you wondering why Sanusi made the statement below? Things have even gone worse than in 1999, when he made the statement..

"There is a new Igbo man, who was not born in 1966 and neither knows nor cares about Nzeogwu and Ojukwu. There are Igbo men on the street who were never Biafrans. They were born Nigerians, are Nigerians, but suffer because of actions of earlier generations. They will soon decide that it is better to fight their own war, and may be find an honourable peace, than to remain in this contemptible state in perpetuity"

(Being Excerpts from A Paper Presented At The “National Conference On The 1999 Constitution” Jointly Organised By The Network For Justice And The Vision Trust Foundation, At The Arewa House, Kaduna From 11th –12th September, 1999)

The land mass of SE region is smaller than Niger state, yet this region has the worse federal roads in Nigeria since 1999.
Why have successive government not been able to repair these roads?
Isn't it obvious that the central government have a punitive policy agianst the people of the area?
Why would people be angry when the youths of the region agitate for separate nation to solve their issues?
People should not blame the leders and governors of the region as these are federal projects.
Would anybody blame IPOB for their agitations?

VEHICULAR journeys on federal roads in the South-East states of Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo have become deadly trap for motorists as virtually all the roads have become impassable. Amansea border town on the Enugu-Onitsha expressway Notable among such roads include the Enugu-Umuahia-Port Harcourt expressway, Onitsha-Owerri road, Enugu-Onitsha expressway, Ninth Mile Corner-Nsukka-Makurdi road as well as Onitsha-Uzo Uwani-Nsukka-Onuiyi-Haven-Ovoko and Enugu Ezike-Umuida-Unadu-Akpanya roads.

The Enugu-Onitsha expressway has turned to a nightmare for motorists as the roads have become virtually impassable. Travellers from the north who pass through the Makurdi-Obollo Afor- Ninth Mile Corner-Awka-Onitsha expressway spend over 12 hours for a journey which usually lasts three and a half hours from Makurdi, Benue State to Enugu. Attendant wear and tear Also, motorists travelling to Onitsha through Enugu to Onitsha expressway or vice versa pass through Udi through Achi-Aguata road to come out at Onisha instead of going through Ninth Mile from Awka to Onitsha, which usually takes fewer hours as the roads have failed in several areas. As a result, a journey from Onitsha to Enugu, which ordinarily should take about one and half hours, now takes more than five hours, with the attendant wear and tear on the vehicles.

The worst sections of the road are the Umunya-Amawbia axis and the Amansea end on the border with Enugu State. The Ninth Mile Corner to Enugu is another terrible portion even with two by-passes constructed by Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State to ease traffic congestion caused by bad roads. The road from Ninth Mile to Makurdi is hellish death traps especially between the Nigerian Brewery junction along Iwollo road to Opi junction at Nsukka. Since the rains became heavy, motorists travelling to Lagos or other South-West states through Onitsha had diverted to the old Onitsha-Enugu road rehabilitated during the administrations of former Governors Peter Obi and Sullivan Chime and the pressure on the rehabilitated road had resulted in potholes and traffic gridlock on the road.

Travellers express worry In the past few weeks, travellers had to spend hours at the Amansea junction following the bottleneck created by the two police checkpoints between Mobile Police, Awka and Amansea, sometimes forcing the passengers to trek several kilometres to get to Awka town to join other vehicles to continue their journeys. Sometimes the traffic gridlock would extend to Ugwuoba in Enugu State and Zik Avenue in Awka. Expectedly, the road users have been expressing worry that the ongoing work on the expressway was very slow, noting that the work would have gone far if the contractors were more serious. A commercial bus driver, Mr. Joachim Nnakwue, said it was always a terrible experience driving on the road. He said as a result of the bad road, he does only one trip daily between Enugu and Onitsha, as against three to four trips he was doing when the road was good. Another driver, Mr. Nwachukwu Okeke, said due to the diversion drivers make at Umunya, youths of some villages have been extorting money from them as they usually mount emergency toll gates and force drivers passing through their villages to pay.

He said that drivers paid between N300 and N500 before joining the better portion of the expressway at the Awkuzu end of the road. Apart from the Enugu-Onitsha road, the Oba-Okigwe federal highway is also in a deplorable condition as the work there has been going on at snail speed. Enugu-Umuahia-Port Harcourt Expressway Also, although the Federal Government has remobilized contractors to resume work on the busy Enugu-Port Harcourt express way abandoned for many years a succession of previous administrations, it is not yet Uhuru for motorists plying the roads as they still are several very bad areas on the roads to be fixed.

The Enugu portion of the road is still dotted with dangerous potholes, some of them located in the middle of the road, making it difficult for motorists to evade or manouvre. Worst areas: However, the worst areas are some stretches at the Abia end of the road. Specifically, the Ofeme axis in Umuahia North council still gives motorists nightmares as they go through a lot of stress on the road, which would likely become a no-go-area for them. In fact, certain portions on one of the lanes of the dual carriage road have been overtaken by weeds but due to a lack of alternatives, motorists still manage to ply it with the attendant tear and wear on their vehicles. It is a common experience to see vehicles break down at these dilapidated portions. But for a standby police patrol team at the Ofeme stretch by the Abia Police Commissioner, Leye Oyebade, many motorists would have fallen victim to armed robbery attacked as the area is always lonely and prone to criminal activities. The contractor handling the Okigwe-Umuahia stretch of the road, Setraco, seemed to have been touched by the ugly plight of motorists plying the road, as they have began to mobilise materials for palliative work on the bad portions before the actual work commence.

The Umuahia-Bende-Ohafia road is one death trap that has eluded any solution as all hopes seem to have been lost as nothing is being done either by the federal or the state governments to save the life of the road users in the area. Dangerous gullies Between Igbere and Abiriba axis of the road lie no less than three dangerous gullies, which pose serious dangers to motorists. Arochukwu-Ohafia federal road, from all indications, has remained a curse on the people of the area and the users as nothing is being done to genuinely alleviate the hardship they go through on the road. No vehicle dares ply the road during the raining season. Life is just hell for the people of the area and users of the road. However, the Enugu- Abakaliki-Ogoja highway is a little bit more motorable except at a few spots. It is the same situation in Imo State as the Owerri-Port Harcourt and Owerri-Aba Highway are in a terrible state of disrepair.

Freiden:
There will be no Biafra.

The world powers will not allow it.

Nigeria will not allow it.

Other ethnic groups been pulled along with them will not allow it. Without them, biafra will be a land locked country inside Nigeria.

The international law states that both parties have to be in agreement before separation.

Like Czechoslovakia and Sudan.

If a war starts as with Yugoslavia and the country is torn apart with foreign power backing like Kosovo, Abkhazia and South Ossetia.

In the case of Nigeria/ Biafra. The foreign powers are more in agreement that they do not want anything to destabilize Nigeria. It is not because they love Nigeria. More because it affects them drastically. Price of crude oil, unpaid loans, business will be severely affected even if there is a peaceful separation.

Let's examine the backers of Nigeria during the last attempt at Biafra.

Actively supported by NATO ( USA and UK)

By the Warsaw pact ( USSR, Bulgaria )

And all the rest indirectly.

Egypt, Syria and Algeria.

With exception of USA all had advicers on the ground and Egyptians and Algerians flew combat missions.

Since WWII the only conflict that had Americans British and Soviets on the same side.

How about now? The same just add China and other BRICS in the equation as they had already investigated a lot.

So has the EU.

So who backed Biafra last time.

France, Portugal and Spain. They were promised mining and crude oil exploration rights. I do not think they are in any position to abandon EU and go by themselves this time.

Apartheid South Africa and Rhodesia. Supported Biafra because Nigeria was their biggest enemy in Africa. They no longer exist.

Israel supported Biafra. I do not know their motive except that they were strong allies of South Africa.

So peacefully they can not separate. No one will let them

Violently again they will loss after millions have died. Nigeria will be heavily backed by the world powers.

They know that too, so why bother?

Here is a secret about Nigeria. Fastest way to be rich. Start an separatist movement or local uprising. The Government tends to pay them off. They usually retire in South Africa after been “settled” So Kanu, one of the main pushers for Biafia will soon vanish quietly after he becomes a real nuisance and the government gives him his pay off.

They are not the first and will not be the last.

Mjshexy:
Isn't Buhari himself suppose to know that Nigeria is a Country made up of different tribes and ethnic backgrounds. How do u expect Nigeria to remain one when u keep favoring only one side over the others, that list is a big joke

Even nature is tired of Nigeria...the reason it is making the government deaf and dumb..so that there are clear reasons for implosion and disintegration...Or how can one explain this madness?

These appointments, is provocative and insult to people shouting about gains from unity in diversity. It is a shame that this grossly insensitive government is doing everything to ensure Nigeria implodes from within...

What is actually wrong with this government? Are they telling the youths from the SS and SE to go to hell? How does the Arewa youths who claimed they want to work with youth from other regions to ensure fairness and equity and progress of Nigeria...plan to do it. Are these charade part of it?

By Emma Amaize ASABA— NATIONAL Coordinator/Convener, Pan Niger Delta People Congress, PNDPC, Chief Mike Loyibo, yesterday, said the group intends to hold talks with President Muhammadu Buhari to reverse the latest lopsided appointments in the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, maintaining that it was a desecration of the principles of federal character. Loyibo Loyibo, who spoke on phone with Vanguard, said: “The recent shake-up in NNPC does not promote the unity of Nigeria. It is a clear violation of the federal character principle. It will make the youths and our people to lose faith and confidence in the peace process in our region and the government. “I want to express my disappointment to the people concerned as the explanation I got was not satisfactory.

For us in PNDPC, we will make efforts to see Mr. President to address the injustice done to our region. Nobody should treat us like a second-class citizen, we produce the oil and we should be treated as such. “The action shows that government is deliberately sidelining our people from appointments in this dispensation. It is totally unacceptable to us, we have given so much to Nigeria to be treated this way and I was shocked when I read about it. “This kind of injustice is what make our people believe that the current Federal Government is not sincere with the peace deal and not ready to bring development to our area.

It will encourage our boys to use it as an excuse to disturb oil productions. “They should know where we are coming from. From less than one million barrels production, today, because of our efforts and the cooperation of the boys, oil production went up to 2.2 million barrels and any negative response signal, our people will lose faith in the government. They are pushing us to a situation where we will retreat and withdraw.”

Yyeske:
OP, you are on a long thing. You think they'll give you any answers aside insults. FYI, they know their god Nnamdi kanu can't get any Biafra and a lunatic but ashamed to admit it.

You can see how intelligent, hard working and igbos with good prospects in life are denouncing them.
Tell them to go lick their god's shoe in the temple he wants to build for them in Arochukwu.
These ones are just jobless miscreants with nothing to their name aside their chinko phones.


Ask them if they have ever kissed their father's shoe before?

"...You are Yoruba. Biafrans have never included you in their business. The agitation doesn’t pose any danger to you whatsoever. Yet, you spend time mocking their agitation and insulting Nnamdi Kanu who has succeded in troubling the waters of the Nigerian polity enough to force a conversation; a feat your Oodua Congress has woefully failed to achieve. One of your own, Osinbajo, is currently being humiliated. He is the acting president, yet, he can’t swear in ministers, he can’t even sign budget. Why? Because he is a southern Christian deemed inferior by the fulani Oligarchs. Rather than allow Osinbajo sign the budget, six months into the 2017 fiscal year it was meant for, the whole country should grind to a halt. You are seeing all these, yet, Biafra, which is a product of the injustice in the system, is your only headache". Peter

See how licking of shoes has become your greatest pain...

KANUIPOB:
what these Igbos IPOB are looking for they will sure get it. no body should complain when the time comes. this idiot kanu will suffer for brainwashing those miscreant.

Let us know when you will see this number of soldiers in any community sacked by the killer fulani herdsmen...Was it not the government that are brainwashing the soldiers and other security forces not to do the right thing? Mister idiocy belongs to you.
