Broveens42: Are you an IPOB member? I know only IPOB members are always incoherent, emotional, love deviating and lack comprehension skills. Someone is talking about how Hope Uzodinma has wasted 5 years in office with almost nothing to show for it and you are taking about private Estates in Imo. Even the New Enugu project is not an Estate but a new district in Enugu so wetin carry all these private estates enter this discussion? 3 Likes |

Jlow2: Slow down with your unverified stories. The building where the Hamas leader was killed is still standing. The Iranian government said the Hamas leader may have been killed by an explosive projectile launched from a building opposite the one the Hamas Leader was staying while other sources claim an explosive was planted in the room long before he lounged there. No one knows for sure how he was killed which is more reason why every terrorist must avoid Israel. 10 Likes |

Politics / Re: We Don’t Want To Lose Our Identity, Dignity – Northern Yoruba Obas Tells Ooni by Unbiased1: 9:04am On Aug 11 |
Let's be honest with ourselves, if we want Nigeria to progress and remain one then it is time we all faced reality. We are divided based on ethnicity to a large extent and based on religion to a lesser degree. It's time for a total overhaul of this country. Let's go back to regionalism where people of same heritage get to be in the same region. Note I said same heritage. I see no reason why Yoruba or Igbo land will be split into different geopolitical zones when they should have been together in their own respective zones. The Yorubas in Kwara and Kogi should be in the South West, the Igbos in the South South should be in the South East, the Ijaws should be together in their own geopolitical zone, same with the Akwa-Cross people, the Edo people should be together with the Urhobo, Ukwuani, Isoko etc who they share similar heritage with. Let's have at least 10 different region's whereby each region is made of people who have agreed to be together in that region either based on cultural, ethnic or religious similarities. It doesn't matter the size or population of each region, there will be nothing like federal allocation as each region will have to fend for itself and send a small fraction of its income to the Federal Government. Every region will use it's own resources for itself alone, only off-shore resources will be shared among all regions or better still, all off-shore resources will be used to fund only the federal government and the Capital. 61 Likes 3 Shares |
Politics / Re: What Would Have Happened Between Igbo And Yorubas Had Amalgamation Not Happened? by Unbiased1: 9:01pm On Aug 10 |
Looking at the history of both ethnicities, here are my predictions: 1) The Igbo people would have tried to dominate the Southern Country just like they tried to do with Azikiwe and other Igbo intellectuals in the past. 2) The Igbo people would have spread to many parts Yoruba and Benin lands, competed for jobs and business opportunities with the natives of those lands while still dominating Igboland. 3) Looking at the history of the Yoruba people and the multiple wars they fought amongst themselves in the past to grow the Oyo Empire, a war would have broken out between the Yoruba and the Igbo at least 5 years after being together. 4) The over dominating attitude of the Igbos and their migration activities would have caused a huge battle between the Igbos and the Benin people. Remember how the Igbos (Nri People) spread across where is now known as Anioma and even into some parts of Edo state? It would have been worse in the Southern Country because the Igbos will dominate the trade and commercial in many communities near Igboland especially in Benin. 5) A war would have broken out, not the size of the 1967 Biafran war, but it would have been large enough to split the country into 3 to avoid a perceived Igbo domination. |

legitnow1: Who then are you blaming for all these things? What the Igbo people are going through in Nigeria and other African countries is largely self inflicted pain. The South East has a similar size with Israel, if Igbo people had learnt from their experiences during the civil war and focused on Igboland since the 70s, the 5 eastern states of Nigeria would have been the most progressive states in all of West Africa. Look at the kind of massive industries the Igbos have in the South West. If all those investments were domiciled in the South East in addition to the existing indigenous businesses, the South East would have been world class like Johannesburg by now. Even with the terrible policies of the Federal Government over the years, the SE would have still been progressing fast. We would have built our own Seaports just like Lagos did because our states would have been wealthy enough to build such a project. Today we are the wanderers of Nigeria scattered like mumu all over the world and getting chased up and down because we failed to build our land. It's nice we are waking up gradually and I hope we achieve fast growth because we have really slowed down our own growth by ourselves without knowing. |

irisher: Finally a reasonable response. The fact that you responded logically, highlighted our flaws as Ndigbo as well the actions we are taking to correct the mistakes showed that you understood my post. I was only trying to make the other dude understand that Lagos was built by all Nigerians irrespective of ethnicity and not by only Ndigbo like his comment portrayed. 1 Like |

legitnow1: @bolded, please stop writing such provocative and false statements. Ndigbo did not build any Lagos. A people who have not been able to build a comparable commercial behemoth like Lagos in their homeland for themselves couldn't have possibly built Lagos. Lagos is the collective effort of all Nigerians irrespective of ethnicity and religion. That place was the capital of this country for 70 long years and got investments from the Federal Government and many foreign investors so how on God's earth do you now attribute its growth to only the Igbos? Just pass your message peacefully without including provocative and controversial statements. 4 Likes |

stasius: I understand a sculpture garden will improve the aesthetics of the hospital's environment. A helipad is also a huge plus so patients can be airlifted from accident sites to the hospital. What I don't understand is the stadium. What is the benefit of having a studium in a teaching hospital? The money for that stadium should be used to increase the number of Ambulance in the hospital or purchase 2 fire fighting trucks and build a mini fire station within the hospital. 1 Like |

MasterJayJay: Dude, I've met many of them here in Lagos. Once they are sent to the East for NYSC, they immediately begin to process a transfer back to Lagos claiming that they don't like the East, a place they have never visited before. I hope they are released safely but I'm so happy they weren't kidnapped in any Eastern state. In the first thread a clown was rejoicing that the people kidnapped were Igbos running away from the East to the South West, I hope he doesn't die of high blood pressure after seeing that it was his fellow Southwesterners that were kidnapped in the South West. 104 Likes 7 Shares |

Education / Re: Minister Bows To Pressure, Accepts 16 Years As Admission Age For 2024 by Unbiased1: 1:38pm On Jul 18 |
I feel the time has come for Northerners to permanently seize to be Ministers of Education. What kind of retrogressive law is this for goodness sake? I'm so angry like WTF is this na. Developed countries are celebrating smart children who graduated from their universities at age 17 or 18, our own Minister of Retrogressive Education wants all Nigerian students to enter University at age 18. This kind of mentality is the reason why they are all comfortable with their states being called Educationally Disadvantaged because they are not ready not move at the same pace with the rest of the developed world. Tinubu should use his position as President to reverse this stupid law please. 3ple9iner: Wetin this one dey write self? Where is your data to backup this claim? What of 16 year-olds who go to Universities close to their homes? A 16 year old living in Yaba can go to Unilag everyday from home without having to rent a hostel. GUNITGuy: These same smart nations introduce their 7 year olds to programming and robotics. Why didn't they wait for the child to get to 18 beforg training the child on Robotics? How does admitting students at age 18 improve our standard of education? Have you not seen 28 year old Nigerian Mechanical Engineering graduates that can't fix small generator talkless of cars? I ask again, how does this new law improve our standard of education? 9 Likes 1 Share |

Amah70: You say one thing first then contradict yourself later on. So you find it bad for Etiti state to be created because it will reduce the number of local government areas in Enugu, Ebonyi and Abia but you find it OK for Orlu state to be created knowing fully well that it will reduce the LGAs in Anambra? You also reject the creation of Anioma state that will not negatively affect the size, LGA and income of anything Eastern state for reasons best known to you. Can't you spot your own hypocrisy right here. It's wrong to have Anioma state or Etiti state but ok to have Orlu state. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Stolen: Your response does not correlate with my statement. Igbos having more states is not my problem. I only adviced you to stop stressing yourself over the so-called Igbo people/communities in Benue, Akwa Ibom, Edo etc. Those people have never indicated interest in joining their brothers in the East, why then should you be bothered about them? In Anioma, it's Ned Nwoko, our senator that is clamouring for Anioma state to be the 6th state in the South East. That is what I expect from these so-called Igbo people in all these other states that you have been mentioning. Why should the ever busy Anambra business man start clamouring for Anioma state when Anioma has its representatives that should do that for them? Why should the Enugu man be speaking up for the communities in Benue to rejoin their Eastern brothers when those communities have traditional rulers that can do all the speaking? As far as Nigeria is concerned, Nd'igbo should learn to mind their business to avoid unnecessary insults and embarrassment. As for the Eastern Representatives and their usual show of shame in presenting 3 - 4 states at the House of Reps, this is where Ohaneze Ndigbo was supposed to come in. That group is supposed to be the point of contact for the Igbo people culturally and politically but they are just so useless. This is the time when the Ohaneze's Ime Obi will call for an Igbo meeting in Enugu where representatives, senators, governors and some prominent traditional rulers will meet for proper dialogue and discussion on the state that should be created as the 6th state in the SE but no, the only time you will see Ohaneze is when they are complaining about political appointment at the federal level. 2 Likes |

Stolen: You have to stop this. If there are Igbo people in some local government areas in Benue, let them speak up. We have to stop dabbling into the affairs of people uninvited. Have you ever, in your life, heard any call from the so-called Igbo communities in Benue to rejoin their Igbo brothers in Enugu? If those guys are not clamouring for such, why are you disturbing yourself? Is it until they call you attachee-by-force or land grabber before you go get sense? So far, only Ned Nwoko from the Enuani part of Anioma has spoken about creating a new state to join the East. All these phantom Igbo communities you guys are claiming in Benue, Edo, Akwa Ibom and Rivers states are just unnecessary, self inflicted stress. 5 Likes |
