Billionaire2:
french language is nonsense…

Of all languages, french is the most useless. .

why?

Macron seems tired of the whole issue. Even France has been inching towards BRICS as of late. I guess this is the reason for France's leniency on handling these coups. Ever since the AUKUS agreement, France has been bitter so it's no surprise though

AuschwitzPrefec:
Oh so random and unnecessary ?

We should just ignore all the artrocities committed by your heebo orcs since Jan 15.

You think your victim hood holds water outside your Okoro enclave ?d

again,to failed to answer the question. What about the atrocities committed by the Nigerian government during the war , the atrocities committed by the northerners towards igbos before& after independence?

What is the point of the article? What message is the writer trying to pass to the masses? Because this feels so random and unnecessary

kokoA:
Some people are really senseless.. Some bunch of boys scout just insulted your country and you find it funny. "President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria" should be respected, that title is bigger than Tinubu, it is bigger than Obi or Atiku, it is even bigger than Joe Biden provided you live in Nigeria. It doesn't matter who occupies that office even if it is Portable or Bobrisky, he MUST be respected. A country like Niger who survives because Nigeria exist has no right whatsoever to disrespect us.

Go and force them to respect the title now. Awon Oni rada rada

Quintessence44:
They are traitors, and their behaviour makes an Igbo presidency virtually impossible.

Honestly, if I had the chance I would have prevented Obi from being president, even if he had won, cos I don't trust him to not break up the country.

This is a fool who refuses to criticize IPOB secessionists!

Why should he be trusted with power?

Do people think the powers of a Nigerian president are a joke?

The idiot could get into power and deliberately instigate actions and policies that would lead to a break-up of the country.

you say we don't contribute anything to Nigeria economy. Then why are you so scared of letting Biafra go? If we go, tinubu is allowed rule Nigeria forever because it's your own business

accordadoga28:
They are the enemies of the state.

They tarnish the image of this country home and abroad.

It is so unfortunate!!!

tell your government to let them go if that seems to be the case

Get to the point 🙄

AntiTerrorist:
Nigeria armed forces are fantastically corrupt but politicians are not better. The advantages of military government in Nigeria supersede its disadvantages. For instance, governance will be faster and there will be less number of thieves at the helm of affairs. Insecurity will also reduce.

Nah, they will just launder money and no one will be able to confront them. Look at guinea and Burkina Faso, nothing improved it just got worse. Besides in an already heated up country like Nigeria, it will likely end in civil war.

Cold war part2 in full swing

AntiTerrorist:
Nigeria is next...

We are only waiting for supreme court of technicality.

is it your severely corrupt armed forces that will carry out the coup?🤣🤣 Pls don't attack me , I am neither obidient nor batist.😁

All of them are francophone countries. The coup and coupists are being most likely sponsored by Russia to undermine french(or western) dominance in Africa. Plus it's no news that France indirectly sponsors jihadist groups in the region to checkmate their leaders. So in conclusion, I think maybe Chad or Cameroon but definitely a francophone country 😁

Nathan2016:
Before I start, please know that I am an Igbo by tribe and have lived most of my life in the South East geopolitical zone, which is known as the indigenous homeland of Igbos. My question is simple: convince me why Biafra is the way to go and why the ideology is sane for any sane mind.

A friend and I argued on this and it seems he did not want to see my view on why biafra ideology is one of the worst ideology coming for the Igbo tribe. Now these are my reasons;

- [ ] Geography: The biafra map in the 1970/72 was well laid and the map cover many state in the south south geopolitical zone and even benue which is currently middle belt or north central geopolitical zones. Since then till today, most of the areas have developed autonomous mindset because of the geopolitical divisions in 1999. Most people in the south south region doesn’t want to hear anything biafra and the north central don’t even want to associate themselves with the ideology. This spans across tribes as the minority tribes in the south south geopolitical region don’t see themselves as biafrans. Now if the south south region is not in tune with the ideology, that makes the only geopolitical zone that is pushing the ideology south east. South east is currently situated in the center of the Southern region making it a landlock region. A landlock region is a region that doesn’t have access to the sea. So both importation and navy security is dependent upon the surrounding states which is the south south zones. This affect any region economically and security wise. Is there countries that are landlocked? Yes, but most of them are very poor and depends on other country for import. They can easily be invaded by foreign countries. So in general it is a bad idea to think of it.

- [ ] Economic growth: the south east and generally in Nigeria is having one of the worst economic crises. The south east zone are not doing better than other zones in terms of economy. The natural resources we have is mostly the same with the ones nigeria has and where has that lead us to as a country? These natural resources are currently going out of use. Most countries are now talking of clean energy, so oil and so on is not something to depend on as a country or new country. We all know how difficult nigeria takes to maintain its own refinery. So why is a region that is not economically stable shouting for biafra?

- [ ] Agriculture: by now I would have thought the biafra war would teach us something but it didn’t. Till today, our agricultural output is still a sham. This is the same for every part of the country especially the southern region. When are we going to focus on the agricultural sector? How can you be wanting biafra when you can barely boost of feeding yourselves. So does it make sense.

- [ ] Political system: I always ask this my friend this particular question. When we eventually get biafra, is it angels that will take over our country administration or another cycle of thieves. There are few politicians in the south east or even Nigeria as a whole that command respect as a leader with No questionable character. So who are going to be our leaders because if it’s these MNK and the other Finland guy, you will be having tyrant on your hands. So those who are pro biafra, tell me how it’s going to work?

- [ ] Commerce and Trade: people from south east and generally Igbos are known to be traders. Now a wise trader always look for expansion into other market. Why would someone who is into trading be chanting to control a region that is the same size as one state in the North? Obviously if the biafra is given to the zone, the Nigerian country can wake up and shut the business of Igbos or tax them heavily as the see fit, after all they are foreigners and doesn’t have the advantages of the citizens in Nigeria.

- [ ] Real Estate: the two major cities in Nigeria will the most economic growth currently are lagos and Abuja in terms of real estate. The Igbos are know to own lots of real estate investments in those states. That bring me to ask, who in their right mind will be fighting to have their own country when their outside investment is huge in their former country. Now most people will say, the Nigerian government cannot take their property from them when biafra happens but that’s speculation and any country can make law to Favour their citizens and people against other foreigners. Even as a citizen of Nigeria, lagos is already making moves on it and the only thing holding them is the constitution. If not, I wonder the fate of Igbos or people from south east.

- [ ] Security: There are two ways to take a country. One is through diplomatic means with referendum and the other is through force with war. At the moment, the Nigeria country is not ready to have any diplomatic talk on the issue of biafra and if it is through war, I mean how is it going to work? But killing and carting away police rifles and fighting it with a country that has international support. Remember the south east zone is landlord. So troops can enter through akwa ibom, delta, rivers, benue, cross rivers, kogi. Now unless you are going to force the south south geopolitical zones in joining biafra war, I don’t think you have a chance.


These are few points that makes it a bad idea for people to even think or consider the biafra ideology.
Are the Igbos marginalized in the present country, Yes.

But who isn’t. Most poor people everywhere is marginalized and the only solution is when we take the bull by the horn. The Igbos should start demanding excellence from their leaders. More than other zones. Our leaders needs to work extra hard to make thing’s possible and life easier for Igbos and everyone living in the zones.
Nigeria right now is facing economic hardships across the geopolitical zones.


Please if you think the biafra ideology is better and can work, I want to hear it. Give me the reason why it is.

let the igbos go. It's up to us to worry about how to run our sovereign country. I don't even like the idea of carrying other tribes with us so we don't find ourselves in the same tribal wars as in Nigeria. We are not the only landlocked country on Earth.

Rahkman:
yes and Russia will fall and putin will be tried and hanged in kyiv by us soldeirs

who is this?🤣🤣🤣

BigBashiru:
Africaa should make cooperation with non-colonial states a priority....and make UK Germany Netherlands secondary....

It will be better if the agreement was signed with Brazil or Argentina....there are many other countries in the world......

so are you trying to say that this is not a nice development? By the way, what makes you think the 'non-colonial' states are eager to sign any agreement with you? Africa is still developing, this is not the time to cherrypick cooperative dealings.

Tonnierichy:
Togo

it better be

BigBashiru:
Bad news...around 1665 (not that long ago) dutch savages sailed to South Africa....their goal? To dispossess the natives of their land.....they hv occupied south africa from 1665 to 1994 when SA regained its independence.....

These are the same ppl you are signing MOU with lol.

your point?

Normal. DSS are just making a joke of themselves.

ColdzOutside:
Nigeria Army should invade that country now to show them shege

they should first show shege to fulanis herdsmen in the north

Tonnierichy:
Shame. Giant of Africa should sanction them and suspend all trading activities with them.

And who is the giant of Africa if I may ask?🤨🧐

Flamemignon1:
Because they genuinely support it, Lil Wayne officiated a gay wedding while in jail while Eminem almost killed someone for calling his gay cousin the F word,it inspired a scene in his movie 8 mile that came out at a time when talking about the LGBTQ community will make you loose fans

oga, forget all these stories. Sometime ago, a man was nearly cancelled because he refused to kiss a transgender woman. It's all about avoiding cancellation

All these increases yet inflation is rising steadily

Flamemignon1:
That's not how sexuality works. Eminem and Lil Wayne are not gay but they support the LGBTQ community

because they will be cancelled if they don't

Still got smoked by Germany. They should do better in defense.

They are not serious

I think it is supposed to be mbappe buying the NPFL.😭

samdede:
Acquire skills and earn in USD. Case close.

Soccrates:


Rubbish talk.

We should be encouraging men to hustle hard and not by limiting number of kids.

Children are gifts from God.
Our southern population is really very low compared to the North,most northerners are not on forums or social media and with their over population they will keep dominating the south for years to come.

We need population here in the south so I ain't buying this shit.

At least 3 is okay.

Bleep you, Bleep your heavenly gifts. Speak for your village pls. You think it is by population. Born 7, later you blame government for your misfortune/mismanagement

lexy2014:
That's not true. These families will make do with what they have and raise their kids d best way they can. They might be drinking garri but there's love in d family, that will fill their bellies

you are one of Nigeria's biggest problems
