You and your Ibo brothers are the only relevant people.

@ vantage001 there you go,after Buhari the Presidency goes to Se,they are wiser now,let all of us fight for resource control and stop pointing fingers at each other,lets woo the minorities in the North,with that we can have the required 2/3 to change the constitution,most of the minorities up north are xtians,this should not be hard.

Amarabae:
oga, South East is open to do business with any geo political zone, be it NE,NW,NC,South west,South south.
Stop creating SEandSS vs Them. Its wrong.
My south east interest comes first and South east don't beg for any alliance.
If you want alliance, we will sit down and discuss it.

Amarabae:
God bless you. I am not even interested in anything SE/SS. Every geopolitical zone should be on their own biko,
enough of this "our oil" noise.
Sam mbakwe build imo airport without one kobo from FG,
South east cities were bombed down during the war, today they are standing, we are rebuilding them.
E.g Enugu, Awka, Onitsha,Owerri etc
We can stand on our own.
I love my enemies to come as enemies than for them to come pretending as friends.

I know you won't be the one to tell me the people of Akwa-cross were part of the defunct Eastern region.

The fact the Biafran succession is entirely an Igbo dream, have you asked them if they now want to be part of Biafra.

Times have changed you can't be too sure if they want to be part of your Biafra now. They were not recognized then so they had no voice so it was easier for them to go with a majority tribe but that is not the case now.

Just because you both voted for Goodluck Jonathan's PDP doesn't mean the entire SS will go with you to Biafra don't be deceived.

gurnam:
Quit crying and continue with begging for attache with Ijawws, Binis, Urhobo, Efik, Ikwerre and the numerous smaller tribes in the South.

gurnam:
Quit crying.

Crying? Are you high?
You are the ones crying over a SS/SE thread na because nobody invited you.
You are blessed and nobody in the South gives a shitt.

gurnam:
The Yoruba are fully blessed. They are the only tribe in Nigeria that boast of both land and sea borders. Blame the game and not the player! Blame your Chi for fuccking you up with the worst terrain in Nigeria that make a whole big tribe doing attaché to small tribes in the south - trying to form friendship

bakynes:
It's the same thing lumping Bendel together with Western region before its separation, you can't be too sure what the people of Cross River and Akwaibom wants, the fact Philip Effiong was the Vice of Ojukwu during the Biafran war doesn't mean they do not want some other path for themselves now. U asking for separation from the Nigerian nation have you asked the Akwa-cross people if they want to be part of Biafra.

bakynes:
See this idiot who can't engage me constructively just shouting Afonja Up and down. Yoruba's are even more recognized in Christianity than Igbos.

Which brothers? Igbo and Benin get anything in common or Igbos and Itshekiri has anything in common.

Is Obvious you are looking for who to play with this morning I don't have your time.

bro4u:
thank God the word 'safely' is used, am sure advanced countries esp. USA will be preparing to shoot it down if it would be heading its direction, but if it's heading Nigeria's direction that time you'll hear different theories, Fayose will say God is punishing APC govt, oga Lai Mohamed will say its not an asteroid;its an ice block, while Buhari would be preparing to leave the country

DUDE, Indians are POORER THAN AFRICANS!!!!

http://www.primepost.in/more-poor-in-india-than-africa/

They have a growing industrial sector, but poverty, illiteracy, and underdevelopment still affect hundreds of millions of Indians.

The only reason the west ''respects'' India is simply because it is a huge country with a 1.3 billion population, and a single central govt, which represents a massive market. They can't afford to antagonize a govt that rules over 1.3 billion people.

If India was like Africa - split into 50 'independent' nations, all the west would do is what they do in Africa. Pick and choose where to invest, and ignore, sabotage the others etc. So they have a very different strategic relationship with India.

If Africa became a Single country like India, THAT would make a huge change. The west would be FORCED to ''respect'' Africa, because that would mean 1.2 billion people plus all the continent's resources, under a single govt. They could never afford to antagonize that govt, and would similarly concede to its demands for technology transfer, like they did with India. So yes, size bequeaths power.

Biafra would be like Sierra Leone or Liberia, who also have natural resources, but are used as a playground for western corporate interests. Too small to matter.

Rosskii:
Absolute Garbage showing deep geo-political naivety.

Tell me something. Why has the west not ''partnered'' with Botswana, all these years?

They tick all the right boxes - virtually corruption-free, blessed with huge diamond deposits, a stable, functional political system, a highly educated population, decent infrastructure, and throughout the 80s, 90s and early 2000s, Africa's fastest growing economy.

So? What happened? Why did the west not ''partner'' with them to turn them into another Singapore or South Korea, by pouring investment funds in, and opening up western markets to Botswana manufactures without tariffs?

Of course it never happened. Botswana throughout the last 30+ years, has sent countless trade and investment delegations abroad offering all sorts of concessions for ''partnership'', to no avail. They remain short of capital, and cannot move to the next level of becoming genuine industrial producers.

UNTIL YOU PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT THE WEST LONG AGO decided that AFRICA was to be their source of raw materials and nothing else, you will keep losing your way. Until you understand that the west are not your ''friends and brothers'', and ''partners'', but are your RIVALS, and that you need to come together and work in unity as AFRICANS, in order to counter their machinations and schemes, you will keep losing your way.

Go and study the HISTORY of western/African relations. It's been one based on economic exploitation. THEY do not intend to see that stop, as it has benefited them hugely. Why do you think they are involved in the assassination of African leaders? Like Thomas Sankara, Patrice Lumumba, Murtala Muhammed etc? Such progressive leaders are a threat to their 'established order' of African dependency. YOU need to understand the game. Because right now YOU, as Africans, are being played.

You need to rid yourself of the notion that the blame for the west's behaviour lies on you. That if you were somehow 'better' - less corrupt, with better infrastructure etc etc, that the west will ''take you serious''. This shows a total lack of understanding of the impulses driving western hegemony. THEIR SUCCESS is almost directly tied to your having those ''problems''. So they will fight tooth and nail to ENTRENCH and EXACERBATE those problems in your societies. This is why they have historically supported African autocrats, dictators, and kleptocrats like Mobutu, Obiang, IBB and co.

So if you cannot understand that their reasoning is wholly economic and strategy based, you will keep seeing yourself as their ''partner'' while they kick your backside at every turn. Wake up!!!

So you will wait until you get a mortal enemy before acquiring credible deterrence? no wahala.
That is not my point anyway.
By now, Nigeria should be operating a surplus of those russian gunships.

Rosskii:
America will never treat you the way they treat Germany. You people need to understand that the west are traditionally your ENEMIES. They are not ur friends. STUDY Your HISTORY. Even when the Brits ruled you and exported ur resources for 100 years, at the end, in 1960, they had built not one university in your country. Not one power plant. Not one expressway. What happened to all the trillions they made? It was only after they left, that Nigeria began developing education, infrastructure, etc. Now you want to make the same mistake of trusting the white man more than your own people. WHEN WILL YOU PEOPLE LEARN? When?

Rosskii:
Talk about jumping from frying pan to fire. How smart. History shows that being a stooge to the west only leads to catastrophe.

Rosskii:
In other words, make yourself a slave to escape from slavery. How smart.

wirinet:
Forget strong institutions, institutions are manned by people and not machines, aliens or angels, an institution is as strong as the people running it.

What we need is a cultural, moral and value revolution that allows a Nigerian to aspire for more than basic materialistic sensations.

BMedia:
This means several things:

1. The US is also in support of one Nigeria because the UK and the US are long standing allies that never go against one another, especially on issues of sovereignty.

2. The UK and US are the most powerful members of the UN with veto powers, so a UN sponsored/supervised referendum is out of the question; it's just not happening.

3. In the event of military engagement in the quest for biafra, the UK and US will be on Nigeria's side again and defend her sovereignty (through sale of weapons or outright participation in the melee) like they did in 1967.

4. The Nigerian government now has even more impetus to prosecute and punish Nnamdi Kanu, a Briton, with this renewed UK support for an indivisible Nigeria.

5. The IPOB propaganda to paint Nigeria in bad light through fraudulent claims so as to gain the sympathy / support of the international community, has failed woefully.

What a sad day for the Liepods.
