It’s like Tinubu supporters forget that what’s in Pandora papers about Tinubu is a million times worse. |
mario383:When you're a stranger in a place, ask questions from both sides. Just don't assume what those with the highest population tell you as truth... Did you know the land before the Ijaw and Itsekhiri crisis? Now read the comment above yours from an Ijaw man and stop making yourself look ignorant... When you give out land to your neighbors and their great grand children come and tell you it's theirs because they've been living there since you gave them.. You can tell me about being peaceful.. When the occupy villages your people fled, rename it and sell it, call it spoils of war.... Come here and tell me how much of a gracious neighbor you and your people will be.... |
mario383:Bros please say what you know. Omadino people have taken the matter to court since. And if I'm not mistaking even won the court case, when this happened Atuwase was the Olu not the current one. Also Ayiri has spoken about it...There have been publications on it. |
alaskido:Oh shut up... Olu of Warri, you calling him Olu of Itsekhiri won't change his historically, world known title, make e continue dey pepper you and your envious people... The land is Okerenghigho not Okerenkoko and it belongs to the Omadino people, we have legal documents and proof to back it up. We also have historical records... What do you have? Lies, deceit and threats.. Park well jare... No one is against the Maritime University, the Olu said that clearly... Just the land doesn't b long to any stupid Gbaramatu clan, a clan the upragraded itself to a kingdom during Jonathan... With zero historical records, just made up tales of moon light... |
darknetcom:Exactly... For me Warri and the Delta is my only home... It was there before Nigeria and will be there after Nigeria...Bros please where is your home? We need to think about home first and our people only... Call it selfish or whatever I don't care, the most selfish nations are the most prosperous... Nor allow dem deceive u oo...Lagos and Abuja is not your home and will never be... The owners will never fail to remind you that.... Or Na crime if we use our God given resources on ourselves alone...Dem swear for us? Make we just dey allow people use or wealth develop their place why our people die of starvation? |
darknetcom:Wetin I go gain from convincing Sabo like you?? Simple question you nor fit answer, bro talk to me likes black African... Not dey form all this nonsense... Werin we don gain from Nigeria for us to stay loyal to her? Or how dem take dey love country reach wen we never do? Answer the question, nor come dey act like fairy... Or u dey happy to see our brother they trek with file up and down Warri and Sapele when other people dey collect their jobs? You happy say we nor get a world class healthcare and people dey die over useless preventable diseases.... Wetin dey d Naija wen u wan die for? |
darknetcom:E be like say ur sense dey pain u... Wetin Urhobo's and Deltans don gain as Nigerians... You claim to be all about black pride, but you try to so much to talk like a white man... You have serious identity crisis.. Our graduates the carry file trek up and down Warri and Sapele... U dey here dey kiss other people backside, sucking their coc'ks to the detriment of your people..... You probably don enter bus run go Lagos dey form hustle na make u dey talk all this nonsense...What has Nigeria done for us that will should be loyal to her.. |
Rossikki:So that's the best you can come up with? I'm still waiting for that reason why Nigeria is a better option... Bro nothing to loose, more brutal.. Please, who will make up the armed forces and police? Our people, not a military that Hausa/Fulani is their first language... That alone means using military to oppress ones one people will not be as rampant as it is in Nigeria... Do you think soldiers of Delta extraction wouldve wiped out Odi, when you might be related to them...Give me facts, figures, not some crap you imagine.. And if what you're saying is true, I'll take it everyday over one Nigeria... As long as say Na my people dey thief and enjoy the money, not someone joined to me by Lugard.. |
Rossikki:How are we different from Equitorial Guinea right now Is it the poor that carts away wealth of Nigeria? Was it in Equitorial Guinea that a boy of a former military dictator in Ibori became the governor of a state? No it was in Nigeria... Was it in some other country that our leaders have been stealing our wealth for themselves... Nope it's in your Nigeria... So the things you're telling me to be scared of happening in a new country has already happened in Nigeria, how have you and your people stopped it.... Also 5million people share 1billion and 100million people share 1billion...Do the math, tell me what I should be so scared of that hasn't already happened in Nigeria.. And yes I will blame the people who in their majority adopted a constitution passed down from the military to favor on side.. I'll blame the people that have let corruption rule their life that anybody can steal from their people becos the past leaders have done so with no repercussions... We are a product of the failed Nigeria system... We need to go start afresh and implement ours, if we fail we will just be like Nigeria now... So nothing to loose |
Rossikki:You're a truly weird one... So the only thing Nigeria has done for you, is that the nation has more level than Togo and the likes... Do you actually read what you post? I'll rather be a citizen of country the size of São Tomé, if I don't have to share our God given resources with over a 100million people that have done nothing to improve our situation for over half a century... I'll rather be the size of Togo if the youths of the Delta are given the jobs in their land instead of folks from other places that I have no business with using tribalism to put their brothers in IOC... I'll gladly be a bitc'h to South Sudan, if it means all the kids of the Delta have free quality education and healthcare. I will kiss Ghana's as's if it means I don't have to deal with people that are fundamentally different from me in every way expect when it's time to share oyel money they scream one Naija... Tell me what has your 200million one Nigeria done for my people in the Delta? And give me a me a reason to believe the next 50years will be better than the last... Not just population and not wanting to be Ghana's bitc'h.. Also WTF are you comparing Nigerians to black Americans. You do realize those were freed slaves right, they are not indigineous to the US, that's not their land and home...Were we once slaves in our home lands that we should be treat like 2nd class citizens? |
Ayiri does this every news year's day.. The women are relieved from cooking.. And the competition is among men... P.S to those complaining about the cooking conditions...A lot of wealthy men in Naija went straight from street to wealth, they missed an education in sophistication and true class.. |
LordAdam:You make great points that I can't really argue with. I just believe they give us a better chance for a more diverse economy. If placed with both submission though, I can't argue that our people won't opt for a chance at a UAE type over a Scotland type. Hopefully the time comes soon enough for us to start having these conversations. |
LordAdam:Bros I think we are being myopic when we say the Igbos don't really bring much to the table. My believe is their merits outweighs their demerits of us going together. This is why; First everyone knows what we bring to the table, our resources, land and ports. If we have full control of our resources and lands like they are proposing, we can build our region to the world class standard we dream of, make sure every child of the region have the best education money can afford and make our coasts tourist attractions. After that, what next? What will our economy be based on when we are done building? Tourism and oil alone like Dubai? The Emirate's look for where to invest their money every day all around the world now that they are done building on a super massive scale. We can't lie to ourselves and not admit the Igbos are ahead of most Africans when it comes to science and tech or reengineering. If we invest part of our oil proceeds there, we can have a very decent technological hub that none in Africa can rival. Also Nolloywood, they are already adding a significant part to Naija's economy. They we go together we invest to increase the quality and it will keep adding more to the economy. Third, our seaports will be a lot busier with them. And thus will lead to more thriving coastal and riverine communities. Also if we decide to get a national carrier "airline", their traveling population will make sure it's a success. All I'm saying is we should actually look at the merits and demerits with open hearts. I believe if you give the UAE an opportunity to add a technological, nolloywood size movie sector and an increase importing to their economy they will bite your hands off for it. Like you've said and those of us in the region know, we don't hate the Igbo's. |
bolaino:Warlord wen e never fight war before. Why are you scared of getting traced? Or u not be Tompolo personal right hand warlord wen e dey carry go meeting with Pastor Ayo again... Ayiri, pastor Ayo and Itsekhiri dey sweet for your useless delusion abi. Let them come home one day without their complete hair then una wen dey start am now go know say them get pple. |
Ossai Ovie Success you don dey carry your lie lie from Fb come NL abi.... I'm 100% sure you will never reply me. But abeg come show us the road make the entire NL judge you. Where the roads dey? Na Warri? Asaba? Sapele? Ughelli? Or it's a place in Delta with no name. What happened to free ante natal abi Na maternal check up? What happened to Oghara Teaching Hospital? Make I continue? Keep your lie for Fb abeg unless you go just bring Okowa wen e dey hide with him invisible projects yansh out for the entire NL to see... |
kropotkin2:How long do you think Nigeria can fund a war without the Deltas? If the ND secede with Biafra, Nigeria will go broke before they can start fighting a war. How long do you think your so called allies will support you with your control of the oil fields? Who will loan Nigeria money to fight a war against the ND? If we go with Biafra and control our oil wells, you guys are screwed before the word go. This is not 1967, the entire world knows how you have mistreated the Delta. The day we secced your allies will desert you, they won't risk losing their investments for you guys that have nothing to offer. Who controls the oil wins the war, simple. Nigeria controlled it in 67 was why they could win. |
legendarystar:Na this one they make Igbo pple curse una anyhow so. You don't know something or someone just keep quiet and pass. Ena na casted Urhobo man for area with a huge following, that's why he puts his real full name on all his write up. The fact say he dey use code support Biafra and una dey nor get sense reach to dey curse am anyhow should scare u guys... This is not an anonymous person, e name dey there. Na person for area when e get small mouth and youths dey listen to.. The day Igbos change the name from Biafra to something else Na den una go know say d entire SS is full with secessionist. |
Fremancipation:Bros I know this as well. But my people go say that Na wash. "People when to change ordinary name hard Na come do that one? Abegi".... The lack of name alone make a lot of people not care about the message... The message is great, the carrier awesome. There is just one thing hold my people from going head first and that's the pure truth. |
Fremancipation:Bros I understand you. If my people were constantly accused of trying to dominate others I'll definitely feel some type of way as well... But it shocks me that you guys that have been on the receiving end of "Lagos, Ibadan express journalism" like y'all tag it. Don't even try to understand what that has done to those that are non Igbos... We were taught in schools that an Igbo soldier went to war because his junior in rank was president. On top of that the older ones, talk about the invasion of the Midwest by the Biafran soldiers. Imagine if this is what you've been told about a group of people for almost 50years, do you think you'll easily be receptive to them? Our people have nothing against the Igbo l, we go to school in Igbo land more than anywhere else and we enjoy it. You guys have to remember that we like a woman trying to get out of an abusive relationship and all we've heard about a man is he's just been waiting for his time to inflict his abuse and everything else Na wash...That's how we see it and even in that we acknowledge the truths of Kanu's message... We are terrified of being abused again, not about no Igbo domination. This time by someone everybody has warned them about for almost 50years. And the feeling some have is if you cannot alay our fears with a simple name change that carries all of us along. How will you fare in larger issues... I preach to my people a lot about secession, they are all for it. Just want to feel they won't be abused again and majority believe a name change that encompasses everyone will be a step in that direction to show u don't care about the crap they keep spouting... We all know the benefits of a nation together with the Igbos, I especially. We would like to invest our oil money in the China of Africa and together we can do amazing things. But you need to understand my people's fears and the reasoning behind it. Maybe then u can know how to better tackle it.. There is a reason a smart Kanu wants us all together and I can see it also... |
Fremancipation:This is why sometimes having a sincere conversation about this secession is hard with you guys. What ever the history about how the name came about doesn't change the fact that the Igbo nation went to war in that name. First we really don't care about anybody dominating us in the true sense. How many other cities are there in Nigeria with a market name "Igbo market". If you don't care about the rest of the ND, then what was the point of this thread? Also this is not a sentiment shared only in Delta, it can be found in Akwa, Cross and Rivers people as well. Mere brushing it aside or saying it's not true won't do you any favors. I am all for us going our way and you guys go your way. But in Kanu's message from jail he included all of Delta including the riverine areas. I'm telling you the truth about my people and how to get them on board and all you are doing is dismiss it flippantly.. Like I said earlier I understand the sacrifices the Igbo's have made for the name Biafra. But the rest of us didn't, and since Nnamdi Kanu is including us in new one, respecting our identity is also very important. My suggestion if Nnamdi wants the nation he dreams of and talk about. A new name with nations divided based on ethnic nationalities instead of states. Biafra can encompass the entire Igbo nation, so also there could be Ibibio nation and so on.. If you don't want the nation of Kanu's dreams. Me and my people are more that super happy go our own way like it was pre colonial times. We have no problem with that. I just gave an advice on how to cajoule my people, that's all. |
The answer is No. Majority of us know and accept this as the truth. The problem that most of the people in my region have is the name "Biafra", it's been synonymous to the Igbo nations struggle nationally and internationally. They believe joining that will make them loose their identity. Since everyone would think of Igbo first when they hear Biafra. That's the salient truth. We understand the sacrifices y'all have made in that name. And sometimes it's strikes me as unfair to suggest a name change. My opinion is the Biafra nation should be part of a Lower Niger or whatever name is decided. If you guys truly want to quench the fear of alleged Igbo domination in "the new nation" then changing the name to one that encompasses all our struggle shouldn't be that big of a deal. Change the name and continue speaking the truth like Kanu has being doing. And watch my people give their all for the struggle to divide this nation. Just my 2 cents... |
omonnakoda:I think going by your points, you technically strengthened his argument for one national grid. Every grid in the US you mention except for Alaska and Hawaii which are not part of the mainland, cover a geographical area bigger or equivalent to the size of Nigeria. Just thought I should point that out.. |
Omonigeriarere:I won't drag Edo with you, just remember the last time Edo was given a choice to choose between the western region and present day Delta state. They picked us, I don't care which enclave they decide to join.. Again in all you rants, you still haven't showed me we didn't make enough from our crops to take care of ourselves preindependence. Show the recurrent expenditure from then as proof or something, that we didn't carry out own weight. All the achievements you just listed from cocoa actually makes my point. They can only be found in one part of the country, which proves those who made money from it used it for themselves majorly, kindly list achievements of cocoa in other region. Also the TV that y'all refused to share with the Midwest, incase you forgot. Because everyone was taking care of themselves then. Do you want me to list the things crude oil has built and is still building across the nation? Until you can show me a city, built from the ground up in another region. Kindly shut it with your mediocre cocoa achievements. Don't bring the US into this, trust me. Even with your research you are too ignorant about its moving parts to be able have an intelligent conversation on it. Google alone made 74billion last year, a 100billion a year is chicken fee in the US economy. And they still make more money from oil than that. The US is close to being energy independent, they drill, refine and sell to their population first. Calculate how much that generates to the US economy, then do the cash crop comparison again. Only Chevron's revenue yearly is more than double $100 billion. |
Omonigeriarere:Among major cash crop states, you still put Edo and Cross Rivers. Except those states are no longer ND states you just shot yourself in the foot. Did you say only theiving politcians, you ingrates. Your states salaries are still being paid from oil revenue, that means Na our money send some of una to school and pay una school fees.. Anything your states has built in the last 40years, some came from oil money. We can go on and on, and I'll give u instances where our oil money saved your states life. |
Omonigeriarere:Like I said you must have comprehension deficiency... How did you feed us if we were producing, those same crops in large quantities? No one is taking all the glory, but it's fact that the ND and east produced more palm oil than anywhere else. Also go tell the Edo people they are not SS, make dem break ur head. What was the sharing formula when cocoa was Nigeria's major earner. You guys used the cocoa money to develop yourself alone. Show me what cocoa developed in Delta or Bayelsa. You initially said you fed us prior to crude oil being found. Now you're admitting we actually produced cash crop to feed ourselves, because to the best of my knowledge we were not waiting for allocation for the FG. So again how did you feed us? |
Omonigeriarere:Are you really this intellectually deficient, or you really don't know how to READ and COMPREHEND... We were called the OIL RIVERS, because of PALM OIL production. We also produced a lot of rubber... There are still Oil palm plantations all over Delta and Edo state (Presco, Okomu). There is an area in Warri called rubber plantation till date, there are still plantations of rubber trees in Delta.. What was the great Nana of Itsekiri trading in, that made him so rich and powerful. Again how did you feed us? |
Omonigeriarere:Jonathan was a failure to our people. No excuses end of... Now that I have stroked ur co ck a lil bit, can you come explain to me when and how y'all fed my people? This has nothing to do with Jonathan but the lies y'all have peddled for years that you fed us prior to crude oil discovery.. Kindly explain to me when and how... |
Omonigeriarere:It was a real mistake replying, you are so thick, you don't even know WTF you're talking about anymore. You fed us....No it's cash crops....No it's food...WTF has that got to do with you feeding my region prior to oil discovery? Did we produce a cash crop, that earned Nigeria a lot on foreign exchange prior to independence. Oh yes we did. You guys have never ever taken care of us and will never do... |
Omonigeriarere:Over 10,000 oil spills has happened in the Niger Delta. How many was caused by militants? How many have you written or protested against? As long as your state get its allocation do you care? Have you lived a mile from where gas is flared? Come spend one week in the creeks, make we see if you nor go carry tools... |
Omonigeriarere:Are you really playing this dumb? We were nicknamed oil rivers because of our PALM OIL production. Is that not an arable cash crop, that we produced in large quantities? Again how did you people feed us prior to Oil discovery. That was your argument or are you not smart enough to stick with your argument? If you're not its understandable, y'all claim sophisticated and still poop in the middle of Iwo road |

Is it the poor that carts away wealth of Nigeria?
