i have warned you severally to stop smoking that thing and you will not agree.now you see were it has landed you?

Why would you persistently want to be using other people's resources to develop your region, because of much power at the center? Now answer the question, to see where you have been dumped?

Jokers


We r still waiting for Nigeria to fall after the arrest of their dilector

You are the dreamy joker...How much is dollar today? How much is your basic items; fuel, soap, water? What about power and gas? If you don't know you are down already, then you deserve my sympathy...

So APC wants, a ONE-PARTY state?

U have being leading in education, but nothing to show for it. Ur region is still the most backward, still filled with illiterates. With all the education in university, ur people have still not come out with the solution for ur massive Erosions that is eating land and shrinking the Landmass in the east massively.

"...During the 60s and 70s when u mention Port harcourt and Enugu in East, mention Kano and kaduna in North, then u must mention Lagos and Ibadan in west.
Lagos was the capital of Nigeria while Ibadan was the largest city in West Africa. We were a very suffisticated people then. We never had much brown roofs. We had largest professors. we also had other cities such as Abeokuta etc but now table has turned on us, ibadan is the biggest slum in the whole of Africa (if not the world) with many dirty buildings without toilets. The brown roofs are enough to make you throw up.

Abeokuta has declined from a city to a small town with slums. Other state capitals in west are mere villages like, osogbo and ado ekiti and akure. (I'd have icluded ilorin but since it has an emir as the traditional ruler, it is now owned by northerners). Here in osogbo the best hotel looks like a guest house


coming to east, you now have many cities, including ones which were not developed in 60s. They have booming cities like Enugu, Owerri, Onitsha, Aba, Nnewi, Awka , Umuahia. If u go to awka umuahia and owerri, u see modern buildings without brown roofs, u see fine hotels, shoping malls and fly-overs under construction. If u also go to other ibo cities outside southeast such as Asaba and Porthharcourt u see the same development..." Oni

Rossikki:
Stop this delusion. The smallness of your country will make it easier to control and subjugate, with just a small army. You need to look around and see what happens in similar small African states.

Why bother about a small country? You should focus on what will be left of you...when the region leaves...Besides, you will still have huge population of more than 100 million... I am still waiting for your response on the other post...

Rossikki:
There will be a lot to lose my friend. Your thieving elite will only become more brutal in clamping down on you, and they'll do so with far less international scrutuny, and greater collusion and control by multinationals.

Not true...the scrutiny will be by the populace...The thieving politicians would no longer get soldiers and mopol from Abuja to protect themselves...development and rulership would be localized, so to speak...

Rossikki:
Fight for your rights. Running solves nothing. You will encounter worse problems as a tiny, vulnerable nation. Sierra Leone is a good example. Look, the smaller you are, the easier it is to fall into the hands of a capricious, thieving dictatorial class, with no outsiders interested in helping, because you are too small... This is why Togo can have a president like Eyadema, who ruled for 30 years and then handed over to his son, etc etc....That will be your level.

I don't think so...We only think of development...I believe by now you understand that Igbos are stubborn...Nobody can enthrone his son to rule over us...Also size doesn't matter...Think if Switzerland and Botswana... they are small countries and doing well...Even Ghana is preferred in diplomatic circles than Nigeria...Please answer this question? Which development do you think would come faster...building rail system cutting across all cities in Igboland and parts of SS, while being part of Nigeria, or while being a sovereign country like Biafra...?

Rossikki:
Dude. Only a few decades ago, blacks were being lynched on the streets of America in broad daylight, and the perpetrators allowed to roam freely. The country did not break up...Later they produced their first black president.. Go figure. Societies evolve. In Nigeria here, military dictatorship was the NORM, a few decades ago. Free elections were a pipe dream. Today it is very different. Societies evolve. Biafrans need to understand this. Running away is defeatist. Stay and build this African superpower in the making. You have direct, legal access to a 200 million strong market, enough to create thousands of Igbo millionaires and billionaires in the long run. You want to run away from that because of a few illiterate Fulani herdsmen. It's actually quite comical. If you are as smart as you say you are, they should be the ones running away from you..

...replying the highlighted line...

First of all who told you it was because of the Fulani herdsmen...? Even if it were, how can they run away from the East, when the soldiers come to support and protect them when the youths try to revenge...after their killings? The country is really in a solid mess with all kinds of marginalzition and suppression...Take the $29.9 billion loan project, where the SE is excluded, and school cut off marks, for example...How long do you want the youths to endure these injustice?

Fremancipation:
If you want a response from the "one nigerianists" open a thread about why you hate Biafra and see it reach 10 pages in 2 hours.

Oh guy you wicked, oh...

mokaflex:
Op you want to incite iPod youths abi? What's your motive. When they hear about $153M loot. They keep mute n stay away, when they hear Biafra, it's all

...just like you hypocrite messiah, said Abacha wasn't corrupt..has kept mute about Halliburton case...We don't care about Nigeria...Nigeria is fraud, and you know it...Why would you bother yourself with what has no future...Biafra has a better future than your Lugard's contraption...

The intrigues and political manoeuvring that will shape the 2019 general elections have begun to unfold with revelations that some serving ministers and governors on the platform of the two major political parties are deeply involved in the formation and funding of the much touted mega party; Action Democratic Party, ADP, which this week began its registration process.

Saturday Sun gathered that beside the serving ministers and governors, a former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Dimeji Bankole, his father, Chief Alani Bankole and a minister of state for Agriculture under President Goodluck Jonathan, Alhaji Awodele Najeem Adewale have been named among notable promoters of the emerging party from the Southwest zone.

One of the top leaders of the yet to be registered party from the North who pleaded anonymity, told Saturday Sun on Thursday that “our support base cuts across party lines and cadres” when prodded to name some of the ministers involved in the party, said “it would be suicidal to mention their names now. But they are people not happy within the system but should they be dropped in the imminent cabinet shake-up, Nigerians will surely know them.”

On the governors in secret romance with the party, the source gave the same excuse “for fear of persecution.”

Further investigations by Saturday Sun however, revealed that a prominent All Progressives Congress, APC governor in the Northwest and another Peoples Democratic Party, PDP governor from the South-South are among the chief promoters of the party , aside their colleagues in the two major political parties.

Most of the big personalities involved in the new party, who are chieftains of the ruling APC, it was learnt are still playing hide-and-seek with the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration, in order to avoid any backlash.

However, operatives of some security agencies who are fully aware of the clandestine moves, have continued to trail the “big actors involved, especially the movement of money to fund the new party and may move against them anytime soon.” According to a security source, “ we are on the trail of the party’s sponsors still hibernating in APC and others. When we start asking for the source of the funds they are moving around, we hope they won’t start shouting political persecution, that is if the party’s registration even scales through.”

Nonetheless, those saddled with the responsibility of organizing the party are pushing fast by setting up physical and administrative structures for the party across the country. On Tuesday this week, it was gathered that its protem national officers had relocated to Abuja to prepare for the party’s registration and national convention. This followed the zoning of positions in its National Working Committee, NWC and that of the National Executive Committee to the various geo-political zones of the country. According to the new party, the National Chairmanship position has been zoned to the North Central; South west gets Deputy National Chairman; South East, National Secretary; National Organising Secretary goes to the North West, South East gets National Legal Adviser, while the South South gets National Treasurer. The new party also made provision for two zones to produce the position of Deputy National Chairmen as it was during the early days of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, just as it created a novel office, National Diaspora Adviser. According to the breakdown, North Central has the National Welfare Secretary; National Vice Chairman; Vice National Organising Secretary; Deputy National Woman Leader; Assistant National Secretary; Deputy National Treasurer; National Vice woman leader; National Vice Youth Leader and ex-official. The North West aside the position of National Organising Secretary, has the positions of National Woman leader; National Vice Chairman; Vice Publicity Secretary; Deputy National Secretary; Deputy National Youth Leader; Deputy National Welfare Secretary; National Vice Woman Leader and Ex-Officio. The allocation also shows that the North East has the positions of Deputy National Chairman; National Vice Chairman; National Auditor; Deputy National Financial Secretary; National Vice Woman Leader; National Vice Youth leader and Ex- Officio....

ImperialYoruba:
If you dont like what Ambode did to your dog catcher, please THINK HOME.

See as that guy finished you. Yorubas like writing rubbish about other tribes, especially Igbos, thinking all is well with them...Gosh!!! What a shame!!!

Immediate past FCT minister

Why? Since we are ONE NIGERIA, why is the FCT minister always reserved for the northern people but petroleum resources ministry is not always reserved for the southern people. Remember minister of Lagos was once a northerner, but FCT Abuja has never had a southerner as its minister...

Can the unity beggars, throw more light on this?

Muhammadu Bello – Current FCT Minister

Uteghe:

6. PM News revealed Igbos contributed largest in online funding for Pmb election.

Liar!!! If the above was true, what did the Igbos get from PMB?

Proudlyngwa:
He said and I quote, you don't expect me to treat regions that gave me 97% to be treated as regions that gave me 5% of their votes.
The north gave him 97% of their votes
The west gave him 65%
The south and east gave him 5%.
Be sincere if it were you would you use equity in your appointments.

Buhari mistake was being too sincere and blunt.
That was a P.R gaffe but a honest one.

...and that's how it was ironed out?

Proudlyngwa:
Stop spreading lies , The president never said Igbo's are 5% ,that issue has been ironed our.

Where, how, when...by whom?

What actions have shown this has been ironed out?

Remember liars go to HELL

MMempire:
Can we please have a section on nairaland where people can't comment on post cause i'm really tired of the tribal bigots that flood every trending post just to piss people off. The posts in these new sections should only give nairalanders the option to like the post and nothing else. For Godsake, this is 2017 and i am already really being pissed off by some senseless daily comments by some nairalanders. Seun and all moderators, be it super, mega, powerful, normal, micro or even nano moderators should please do the needful. Thank you.

Why not open your own website...?

Why do you people love to live in an environment where injustice, inequality, evil, wickedness reign..Just because you are gaining from the rot as Nigeria is currently configured...? If you advise them to open a section where injustice to people across the country is debated, I can assure that people will end up being in one page as fairness to all will be agreed on...and that will drastically reduce the tribal banters...

Double standard is now an official state policy of Nigeria - the Lugard's contraption!

I concur.
