They are richer than ur entire state. fiizznation: |
Are you from the Arubi family at Ugbuwangue? Alero3Arubi: |
Their are many businesses u can start with less than 50k or nothing. It ranges from ICT, agribusiness to information products. Yes the information u are privy to can earn u money ( pls not necessarily as a whistle blower lol).Ur opportunity is in the open waiting for u to exploit Bestlily: |
I can't tell you any viable business u can do without accessing u and knowing ur abilities. It's not something I will table out here just like that. But even in Warri u mentioned their are many things u can do to make money. ijeezlux: |
Hello sir, I made that statement based on Nigerias political landscape which is not promising in any way. Nigeria as an entity despite her myriad of political problem has a huge and untapped economic potential. I am one of those who believe that for the system to work, we must restructure our political and economic system other than the status quo we are observing presently. As bad as the situation is, people are still making it here big time and legitimately too. And yes, if those clomouring for secession wants out, I believe thay should be allowed to do so and that's where my south Sudan analogy came from. It has nothing what so ever to do with the discussion at stake. Thank you. [quote author= post=56480453]Hello Sir, Please were you the person that made this quote (below) too : "I rather be a south Sudan learning the ropes, toothing my horns and getting it right at the end than being a failed nation like Nigeria where the powers that be has nothing to offer but are hell bent on maintaining the status quo." I leave you to your conscience .[/quote] |
Op u don't have to go outside of Nigeria to make it. If u must make it in life, u must start from where u are and that place is u. What can u do other than ur degree certificate. Nigeria as a country is replete with huge potentials and people are making it every day here from nothing to something. What most Nigerian youths lack is mentoring and self actualisation goals and principles. One huge potential Nigeria has is her hugemarket of over 180 million people. That is a market any entrepreneur will never ignore. That aside, Nigeria is also a land of untapped oportunities begging for investors. Pls look beyond the papers u have in ur hands as degree and put ur brain to work. If u study ur environment very well, u must be able to find a need u can fufill that will fetch u income. In making money, the information u have can be converted to money and u must not start with huge capital investment before u can make it big. Besides studies have shown that most businesses that became conglomerates started small and grew to become what they are today. U can start with as little as nothing and as much as 50k and above. I can give u over 10 businesses u can start with nothing or not more than 50k . When I mentor people, the first thing I do is to make them see potentials in them and around them. Then the next move is to show them how to exploit their potentials for profit. Emigrating can not solve the problem. change ur mind set. |

9jakool:I beg to disagree with you. cultural homogeneity is a huge factor in determining the making of a nation. The cases you sited here are strong nations because of the cultural bonds binding them as a nation. Malaysia separated from Indonesia because culturally they are not the same. Even in Malaysia the majority malays are the ones running the show. Italy is not culturally diversified and they have strong binding factor in catholicism and language. In Australia u mentioned, apart from the colonised aborigines the dominant culture is the protestant -Caucasians who emigrated to Australia. Same goes for Brazil where the Portuguese -Catholic culture is at the core of their homogeneity. USA is still controlled by the dominant British -protestant -Caucasian culture. The Rewandan genocide happened because hutus were against tutsis that later snowballed into a conundrum of blood letting. The Rwandan situation may likely pita out in Nigeria where a dominant hausa-fulani moslem is refusing to listen to cry of injustice from southern Nigeria. Like in Rwanda, the tutsis were perpetually ìn leadership but nothing to show for it until the crisis started. Rwanda has been managed because of binding factors like catholicism, constitutional reforms after the upheaval and Rwanda comprises of two ethnic groups that are willing to look at their problems collectively. Same can not be said of Nigeria with three major ethnic group and over three hundred other minority groups with diverse cultures separating us. Besides our colonial masters built Nigeria on a tripod but so far Nigeria seem to be standing on one leg. Cultural diversity instead of being a binding force is rather at the centre of factors dividing us. Nepotism, ethnocentrism and even corruption are are as result of cultural diversity in Nigeria. Nigeria is more like Yugoslavia and unfortunately it looks like we are going the Yugoslavia way. |
blues20:We are not against Biafra neither are we for it . But I honestly believe that we in the Niger delta can Coase our forces around the biafran movement like IPOB and achieve results that serves our collective best interests. What IPOB is doing presently is what MEND could have done but MEND got their vision, focus and agenda all wrong and at the end they sold out. The Niger delta needs a well organised pressure group like IPOB. The last time I checked the struggle seem to have been left for few Ijaw people who are also positioning themselves for a pay out. Fact remains we are too narrow minded in the Niger delta and we lack the cohesiveness and leadership we are seeing in IPOB. To move forward, I believe those of us in the Niger delta area should take a stand with IPOB but for Niger delta emancipation instead of becoming a part of a Biafran state. We can take a que from countries like India , Pakistan and Bangladesh. Or even Sao tome and principe etc |
Amarabae:why is this tolly boy spitting all over himself and now he has made me go check ur dp picture. Gurl u are pretty. Abi the boy toast u , u no gree? why is he pained. Yoruba boys too like pretty igbo girls one reason they don't want Biafra |
It will be foolhardy for IPOB to join partisan politics. IPOB as a pressure group has done marvellously well. I like the fact they are present in over 90 countries and spreading. I believe their next biggest task is to sensitise the south south more and carry them along. Theirs need for IPOB to align with like minds in the south south or even the south west and middle belt. With the level of awareness they have created in the last two years, people are really beginning to look up to them for direction. I believe if they continue piling the pressure on the Nigerian state, two things will happen, a restructured Nigeria with an exit clause and time frame for such for any of the geolopolitical zone or zones or Nigeria ceases to exit the Yugoslavia way. The truth remains that with the coming of IPOB, the political north is worried and are at their widths end on how to confront it. Offers has been thrown at IPOB leadership which they willingly turned down. Please you IPOB guys should tell nnamdi kalu no to give in to their offers or threats when they fail at the carrots being thrown at him. kalu remains not just the face of the IPOB struggle but that of every oppressed Nigerian who is fed with Nigeria as we know it. The biggest mistake the Nigerian state has made is arresting and keeping Kalu in prison, that singular act has made him the face of the struggle and no political power is bigger than that . You kill IPOB the day u turn them into a political party. |
Don't worry Nigerias future has already been decided and u can keep ur Nigeria. Those us of in the Niger delta will not be part of ur Nigeria and please Biafra has a right to be their own country and you tanko yakassai or any one else has no right to stop them. Oga if Biafra had succeeded Niger Delta will have been way better than the nonsense we are saying now. Some pro Nigerians can be so annoying. |
Na so. |
Some people are waking up to the unfortunate reality that Nigeria as we know it is a failed state. it's only in Nigeria that a sitting president who obviously is incapacitated due to ill health will cling unto power to the detriment of Nigeria and sycophants and ignorant chalatans applaud him mostly because of ethnic sentiments. |
Ur property is expensive at 13.5 million or 18 million in lakowe. At Bogije a few miles away properties are being sold at 1 million naira per plot so why should I buy urs ? propertyarena: |
Is he famous now? pweetixandy: |
When I see statements like this from half witted folks, I just feel bad for Nigeria and I see reasons why igbos want out of Nigeria. you don't want them, you don't trust them , you hate them for many reasons but when they cry Biafra, you call them names. Truth remains ,Nigeria can not continue in the direction it is going and yes if igbos say they are fed up with Nigeria, they have a right to their own country or a renegotiated Nigeria where equity and fairness thrives. No matter how long u hold somebody on the ground, one of two things will eventually happen, either you let go because you are tired or he breaks away from you because he is determined to break free. malton: |
I love freshly ground. where are they now? |
The robber. no he didn't mean that one. lol. He wanted federal character to reflect in the movie. ephi123: |
The annoying part like the analysts said,is we know the trouble with Nigeria rest squarely on poor leadership or lack of it entirely. ours is a country of pretenders. We never take anything serious a case in hand is the leadership impasse we are experiencing presently, in saner climes, an M Buhari who obviously is incapacitated to lead on health ground will have long been asked to relinquish power to his deputy so that the ship of state will carry on smoothly. But what do we have here? pretenders who will go to any length to protect their interest at the detriment of the Nigerian state. We are not just plagued and bugged down by ethnocentrism but also unfortunate to have had charlatans who are parochial and at the same time myopic in positions of leadership over the last 45 years. To remedy the situation we must holistically look at the cords that bind us and tinker with a constitution that will make leadership unattractive to men and women who are not supposed to be in leadership in the first place. Nigeria as we know it is ebbing away slowly and if nothing tangible is done to change our course then I'm afraid like yugoslavia, we will sound her death nail as a nation. |
As much as I do not subscribe to Biafra as a nation. I would prefer a confederation. I'm not against it and Biafraexit from the Nigerian contraption will at least enable us get a Niger Delta Republic. But in all honesty, I would prefer a restructured Nigeria with decentralised power and regional autonomy. chiedu7: |
This ur information is ambiguous and miss leading. How does this relate to Biafra. It's a fact most of these western nations are already getting fed up with leadership shenanigans in Nigeria and will likely not back a united Nigeria as we know it in the nearest future. Nigeria is an unfolding drama and the end result of this drama, doesn't look promising at all. |
U know ur self naa

mrcork how far? showmeyourpussy: |
Something is not right with Nigeria. If Mr president is not in any hospital and he is hale and hearty, then that's the abdication of responsibility on his part by not showing up for duty.Where is president Buhari? This government owe us a responsibility to inform us of his whereabout. Nigeria is being taken for a ride once again. This government can not hide the truth forever and it's high time we told them to face reality. I feel terrible being a Nigerian presently. |
Exactly what I mean. let only the yoruba speaking areas form Odua republic. The Iwere Kingdom or republic is too intertwined with other ethnic groups in delta south alone that it will be difficult caving us out of a Niger Delta Republic. Kagawa10: |
ilajes are not separate from yoruba but they are not entirely yoruba. They are more like our kith and kin. Besides it's not a faith accompli we must team up with them. like I said, we will not align with Odua republic or Biafra. We are Niger Deltans Kagawa10: |
Last time I checked, lokoja belongs to the igarra ppl and not okun yoruba. To burst your bubble, the igarra people will not join your Odua republic. I think it will be best if yorubas cave out only the yoruba speaking areas as Odua republic. The impact will be greater. Simongm: |

I laugh when i see these maps. first it was Biafra that mapped us into their plan and now Odua republic. I guess we are the beautiful bride that both contending parties are wooing. The truth be told, the Niger delta area of Edo and southern delta will not be any part of Odua or Biafra. I also laughed when I saw Ida and lokoja in their map. those guys won't join a tribalistic Odua republic. Even we the itsekiris or Iwere Republic will not join Odua. We will rather align with edo and ilaje. |
It's not all hype. I got interested in producing a movie after the success of the likes of a wedding party. Some of the A - list contacted are quite expensive. Mercy Johnson for instance will not remove 2 kobo from 2 million and hardly have ur time because so many producers are bombarding her with scripts and some are paying more. Geneieve or omotola don't even go there anything from 8m and above and u must go through their managers. zack orji 1 million , Alex osifo 800 k . If u want the lover boys like majid Michael or Ramsey noah better hold ur 2m to 2.5m.etc. I also found out that if u are on good term with them, so of them can reduce their cost for u or even favour u without taking a dime. But their are these categories of up coming artist that are out rightly desperate and can give anything including there body just to feature in a movie especially quality movies. skaramanga: |
I get pissed when I see people like this talking trash. Of the 22 uhrobo clans, Ehreni who have their ancestry linked to igbos are more important in the scheme of things than ur inconsequential community. On the discussion at hand, those of us in the old bendel axis will likely not join Biafra because of Igbo dominance and nothing else. But we the itsekiris will rather hook up with the ilajes, binis and the like . It will be better I jaws form there own country and govern them selves that's if they can. I have been in committee's of lower Niger area and issues like these have cropped up but with dialogue and clear vision of what every ethnic group want, we can work out a relationship like a duo country in one like you have in Trinidad and Tobago, saotome and principe or even the UK model of Scotland, England, Wales and northern island. The truth of the matter is, if there's biafran referendum today, Nigeria as we know it ;will die a natural death. mathy001: |
