Dokubo makes a lot of sense in
Many things he says but the unfortunately, not everyone has the brain power to comprehend his words. Many APC/Buhari supporters often talk about "how Buhari will jail people". Buhari has no power to jail any body. Only a competent court of the land can jail anyone. Buhari is bound by law just like anyone else. Buhari may have the power to order arrest, but he has no power to lock anyone up. If Buhari is sworn and he over steps his bounds,he may be liable to impeachment.

Manbryto:
Am really disgusted at ur disposition. With ur level of education, u still sound like a village palm wine tapper. Tribalism and ethnicity will take us nowhere. One Nigeria and mutual respect for each other is a possibility. Fact

You still find it very hard to understand that you have no country. You are talking about tribalism but you fail to see that what is causing tribalism is Nigeria its self. There are many groups in Nigeria including my people the Igbos who want to go their separate ways,so why are we forcing our selves to be together? We did not kill each other before Lord Lugard came,but we been killing each since Lord Lugard left. As an Igbo man, if I had Biafra,would there be any need for the Oba of Lagos to threaten to drown me in the Lagoon? Would I care about who is Governor of Lagos? Would I have any need to fight with a Youruba or Hausa man? Over what? Nigeria is a mistake a white man called Lord LUGARD made 100 years ago and we should correct the mistake that stupiid British Business man made and go our different ways so we can finally have peace.

Wake up dude,Nigeria is country of tribes. 'Nigerian' is just a title the White man gave you

The Truth

Point of correction, tell them to tell themselves - Igbos to pick up some well written and detailed Nigeria history books written by unbiased foreign Journalists and read thoroughly instead of picking bigoted self acclaimed historian like- Chinua Achebe who wrote junks with undiluted and profound sentiment.

(It's shameful to see an Icon/well respected elderly person among today's youth who had chosen to tour the path of bigotry, tribal lies and deceit - Chinua Achebe). Apart from that books, tell me one single thing, he is known for outside Igbo land? Absolutely nothing.


Just before I go, permit to chip this in, if there were ills of civil war that need to be forgotten, please, place that request at the door steps of Nigeria soldiers and civilians who were mercilessly killed by Biafra soldiers and of course the family of Northern, Western and Middle belt leaders who were butchered by Igbo military officers just before the civil war.

Finally, appeal to Igbos from now till Kingdom comes, Northerners will never forgive them and it's obvious in their reaction whenever they start their madness in the North. You know why, Igbos are loud and equally have access to d media with which they used to scream blue murder at any slightest fight but which Northerners don't. The Northerners are hurt as much as Igbos are hurt but as long as you all think that Igbos are the ones that need to be appealed to simply cos they know how to shout, Nigeria ll never know peace.

South West seems more socially and civilly advanced when it comes to issue like this unlike the other two regions. Igbos killed their own leaders in the coup too but they chose to forget it, accommodate the same people in their land without any attack and pretend as if nothing happen; good for them. Na them Sabiii!!!

However, the reprisal attack by Hausass/Fulanis/Kanuris on Igbos which led to pogrom was inhuman and barbaric. The killing of Northern, Western and Middle belt leaders and their wives by Igbo military officers was absolutely unacceptable and barbaric on its own. With this on the negotiating table at all time, everybody will have sense of belonging and be happy.
Always remember that to every action, there must be a reaction. And there 200% possibility that reaction to action could be much more brutal than action. Stay clear from any unnecessary action that might trigger another man reaction.

God bless Nigeria.

Peace out.

This long epistle of yours is unnecessary. The simple truth about Nigeria is that it is a country only on paper. It is nowhere near being a nation. The White mans contraption called 'Nigeria' should be divided and let everyone go there separate ways. The Hausa/Yoruba/Igbo man are not built to be together in the same country. All we have done since 1960 is kill each other and millions have died in the process of holding Lord Lugards mistake called 'Nigeria' together. The real truth is that we should all go separate ways and stop giving each other unnecessary headache.

So that APC Rat called Okorocha won? Imo people are failing my hand. Okorocha was the last APC stooge in the South east and Im thoroughly disappointed that he is still there. SS/SE are not part of this APC nonsense. It far better to keep our dignity in opposition than to part of this Buhari-personality-cult-worship-class called APC. As for Okorocha, he will later found be out that the Hausa/Yoruba organisation called APC will never give an Igbo man the presidential ticket,not in a million years. So whatever presidential aspirations he has is already dead. Oh well,if the people of Imo want Okorocha,they can have him. Outside Imo state, Okorocha is a nobody.

Amazo:
We're not talking about the failures of the past; rather we're talking about the developmental prospects of today's Nigeria under the current democratic dispensation. And just because PDP presidents haven't delivered as expected in the past 16 years doesn't mean that all other coming Nigerian presidents should be written off. Nigeria still holds great promise as a country for every tribe within its borders. But I get your point about the possibility of an ibo presidency and sadly it's really hard to dispute, so I won't even try.

If you build a house and it has a faulty foundation,no matter what you do,you will never enjoy that house. Nigeria holds no hope for anyone and its greatness is chrade. The reason why Buhari will fail,just like all other Nigerian heads of states before him is that he cannot give Nigeria what it truly needs and that is autonomy. Even the founding fathers of Nigeria realised that to govern Nigeria,the people had to be given a high degree of autonomy. There were 3 regions and these largely governed themselves and kept the vast bulk of whatever accrued in their regions. Nobody could cheat anybody. What we have now is a situation where one man and 36 state Governors have been arrogated more powers than God and people expect anything good to come out of it? Nigeria is a failed venture and we should all cut our losses and go our different ways.

"As an Igbo man, I have nothing in common with a Yoruba or Hausa man." What about the colour of your blood and the air we breathe in? Your type is one of the reasons Aba is like a refuse dump. Think of something better instead of ethnic/religious bigotry. God bless my brothers and sisters in Religion and Humanity. #SayNoToTribalism

This has got nothing to do with tribalism. This is all about the right to exit or stay in the 'partnership' called Nigeria.

I don't see an Igbo man ever becoming president and frankly, it is of no importance. The office of the president is more of a psychological thing than anything else. How has the presidency benefitted other zones that produced it? Did the south-South get any special benefits from GEJ's presidency? The Igbo man should think beyond the Nigerian presidency and ponder on how best to get his own country. No Nigerian president has ever done well since 1960 and none ever will because Nigeria is a fundamentally flawed enterprise. The Igbo nation should evolve into its own nation and govern its self and resources instead staying in Nigeria and wondering when the Yorubas and the northernets will seceed power to an Igbo man. We should not think small because of 'Igbo president'

frank043:
What's your point?! None!! By the way,its 'Nigerian',not 'National'.

My point was for those who may not know that he was amongst the first batch of officers to come out of the NDA. Thanks for pointing out the 'Nigerian' as opposed to National.......... Smart-a$$

A lot of people might not know this but Rear admiral Allison Madueke along with General Oladipo Diya was amongst the first intake of officer cadets at the Nigerian defence Academy when it was opened in 1964. I'm not sure if he fought on the Biafran side during the war.

Ironsi was warned several times about the impending coup but he felt that it just be something that would blow over. Danjuma who arrested and killed Ironsi has never answered for his crimes,he is still on the national gallivanting about with the billions he is making from the oil blocs allocated to him. Nigeria started going down the road of no return as soon as the British handed over. As an Igbo man, I have nothing in common with a Yoruba or Hausa man and we shouldn't be together in one country. The mistake the British made was not split Nigeria 3 ways. Since then to this very day, all we have done is kill each other.

Raiders:
Did APGA won any seat and governorship election? Even the Anambra senate and house seats was won by all PDP. PDP is going to win Abia state because they are leading with over 80k votes. If Rochas had remain in APGA he would have also lost. APGA is not a serious political party and might as well join pdp because they cant even produce a presidential candidate

Any party controlling a state is a serious political party. We have many political parties and almost all of them are controlling nothing. APGA is controlling Anambra and if not for PDP rigging,they would also have Abia by now. As for APGA fielding a presidential candidate,what is the point of doing that when that person will not win? It's much better to support the person who has a chance at winning.

Obiagelli:
Apga joining the progressives soon. My predictions are always right.

In your dreams. There is no way APGA or any politician in the South-East worth his salt is going to defect to APC especially now. Doing that is political suicide. They have all seen how Okorocha is only just managing to survive by the nape of his neck. APC has no place in the SE. Frankly, Im amazed that Okorocha wasn't booted out along with Ngige.

doctokwus:
Thought he said he would spearhead APGA to form an opposition party?Talk is indeed cheap.
These are fair weather politicians.If not obiano should know he has a once in a lifetime historic duty to forge an alliance with like minded individuals,men of integrity and foresight to give Nigeria a credible opposition party after d expected death of PDP, a party populated by thieves,drug lords,gangsters and fugitives from foreign lands;a party that went into the last elections handicapped already by its choice of an utterly incompetent president.
Even those of us so overjoyed with the emergence of GMB and so convinced of his destiny to make Nigeria great,would welcome such a credible opposition as that spearheaded by an APGA, which though a minor party now,but whose presence and tentacles are formidably being felt and acknowledged nationwide.
Obiano with some strategic weeding of political misfits and criminals, and strategic alliances can give Nigeria that.

A Governors performance in office has nothing to do with what party he belongs to or who is president. Who will work will work. Obiano knows that if he dares to defect, he will lose the Good will of the people of Anambra. This was just a congratulatory visit and nothing more

37? Hmmmmm.......... Well it's possible but that would mean she was barely 20 when she started starring home movies and releasing songs with her late husband in the late 90's/early 2000's

searching4lovee:
Quit foaming in the mouth pained soul Buhari will rule you and the niger delta till 2023 and nothing will happen. If you try nonsense, you will be blessed with hot leads from the nigerian army

As an APC supporter, I expect you say this. PDP also talked about ruling Nigeria for 60 years and that changed. Your so called 'Hot heads' from the Nigerian Army should first go and get Shekau and his few thousand followers before thinking about fighting an SSE/SS resistance with millions men.

It's a very rare thing to see an Igbo person with an English surname. It's almos unheard of amongst men. How many of these people are truly from Imo state?

I read somewhere on NL that a Major-General in the Nigerian army is on about a million Naira salary a month but I don't know if this is true.

If this is true,then it is one of the worst Government policies I have heard in my life. So Buhari wants to use the SS people's oil money to do jamboree for the Almajiris of the North? Interestin!

It will be interesting to see how the elections go, I hope Otti wins.

Yeske2:
The OP should be banned for life, why bringing up hate threads just for the fun of it and senseless bigots jumped in saying trash on a thread with no source.
For my SE brothers this country remains one wheather you like it or not, this should teach us how to strategize politically next time and stop being clannish.

Wether we like it or not? Why? Because a British drunkard called Lord LUGARD came and 'baptised' you a Nigerian? If Lugard had never come to Aftica, would you have gone to Britain to tell him "LUGARD, you must come and make us Nigerians wether you like it or not"?

Slave mentality is a terrible thing.

#no matter how bitter you are, the certificateless illiterate will rule you and your family till 2023 [/b]

And yet, if SE/SS people demand secession from your useless federal republic of Nigeria, people like you will be the first to come out fighting for one Nigeria.


I commend the South-East and South-South people for coming together to discuss their continued existence with Nigeria. It is the right of any group of people in Nigeria to renounce their Nigerian citizenship and assume any identity they so wish. Their is no such thing as a "Nigerian". A Nigerian is simply a person who has no identity and has instead,chosen a slave identity created by the White man called Lord Lugard. The only way we of the SS/SE can move foward is to unite and demand a referendum from Nigeria about the inclusion of our people from the Nigerian state, and if the refuse to give us referendum,we seceed by force. This won't be like the first Biafra, self determination is now a recognised right of man and I believe that world powers will recognise our right to be free. Nigeria has never worked as a nation and never will. When we get freedom, we can always split into Biafra and the Republic of the Niger-Delta if we do not agree to stay together.

Bants:
Igbo in yoruba means weed...so why dont change the spelling of igbo(dialect) to ibo

The intonation is different. There is no such word as "Ibo" in the Igbo language.

The backward north are masters of the game? I don't blame Kwankwaso. It is because we are still in this 'scam' called one Nigeria that an 'ab0ki' thinks that power is his exclusive preserve. One day Nigeria will disintegrate and the North can take their 'born to rule' ideology with them. The curse called Nigeria is why a Hausa man or Yoruba man think they can point to the face of an Igbo man and dictate who will president. You guys should enjoy while it lasts.

So this is the house were the "fraud" known as 'Nigeria' was created by the British profiteer called Lord Lugard. The 1914 amalgamation was the single worst tragedy to befall my people the Igbos.

Man! Obasunjo really is an ugly fuk!!
