Yeske!:It is the almajiri and agbero connection in them. They have enjoyed huge patronage and favor from the corrupt Nigerian system. The investments in Lagos they are so proud of boasting was never from their own pocket and they are now clamouring for non-yorubas to leave Lagos. Imagine witch talk. But I am happy that all that investment in Lagos has turned to waste. Yorubas are now officially Abokis! 3 Likes |

And there is this falsehood the SW keeps spreading or wanting to hear all the time, that their region is the most developed. How can this be possible? Let me give you an annalyis why this is a myth. I will cite the aviation industry and look at key destination airports outside Abuja and Lagos. I chose aviation sector because globally this sector is used to gauge the strength of any economy. If the aviation sector is in decline then hitherto business and leisure travels will be affected. The airlines are usually the first to declare losses prior to an impending economic crisis and economists use the health of this sector which is highly prone to broad economic factors as a guide. The aviation sector can also be used to show strength and growth as well. In Nigeria today, the southeast and niger-delta region have huge capcity as destination aeroports. Owerri , Enugu, Calabar, Portharcourt, Asaba, Osubi and even Benin Airports enjoy relatively strong air traffic outside Lagos and Abuja. Volumes of flights to these destinations account for the bulk of local departures out of Lagos and Abuja. This goes to show that these regions are enjoying strong economic growth or have a huge middle-class population than any other region. For the north it is either Kano or Maiduguri the reason being more of security challenge. And as for the SW there isn't any other destined flights to any city outside Lagos. case closed! 9 Likes |

django1: Have you ever wondered where israelis were in the scheme of things before 1947 and what happened after 1947/48 when the nation of israel was declared and how the jews are now a technological/economic/military power. Do you think israel would have achieved anything if they were still under the palestinians or they were lumped under one country called meditarania with other Arab countries . Nigeria is a real stumbling block for the East , the East would have rapidly developed if they were not in Nigeria , same thing happened between the north and south Korea, if both were in the same country as they were before 1945 , at best south korea would have ended up as a little korean industrial zone and not an economic super power ( Samsung makes more money than all the oil wells in Nigeria). India which consisted 3 countries india, pakistan, bangladesh would have been busy spending billions of dollars in pursuit of islamic insurgents and suicide bombers rather than on Research and development if they were lumped in the same country in 1950 rather than going their separate ways. The amount of money Boko Haram has either stolen or destroyed is enough to build world class, stadium , school , estate and sugarcane refinery that would employ Northerners , but what do we have today. destroyed businesses and homes 11 Likes 1 Share |

Rhino.5dm: Don't mind the fo•ls, the same GEJ that yorubas protested for when Turai was pocketing the man! Was there any protest in SE during those times? Now that the man seems to be fixing igbos up in top ranks, e don turn their man! The same GEJ that won the presidential vote in Lagos state in 2011. Now, the yorubas don turn their enemies when yorubas are doing what they have always done; protest against bad governance! Funniest part of it all is when someone says because you're in the same country as northerners therefore you must remain backward!! I mean are the northerners the ones stealing your public funds? Are they the ones committing all the barbaric crimes in your region? I must say that southerners generally have so much abused the northerners, blame them for every woe that betide them!

you know sometime in 2006, during a presidential visit by Obasaojo at the Liberation stadium in PH, some elderstatsemen where also invited one of them was the late Odumegwu Ojukwu. When Ojukwu was invited to give his own talk, he mounted the podium at the stadium that was filled to the brim by mostly Niger Deltans. What he said was 'Niger Delta good morning oh!' he turned to his right again he said 'Niger Delta good morning oh!' again he turned to his right and said again 'Niger Delta good morning oh!'and finaly he turned to his right his initial left and said lastly 'Niger Delta good morning oh!' he went down out of the podium without saying anything else.

Asari Dokubo is the greatest fool Ijawland has ever produced! You wanna know why he is spewing all this rubbish and at the same portraying Niger Deltans in bad light? Answer is because he is half Igbo! The question I want to ask these ALL RIGHTEOUS IGBOS IS: Won't Ijaws be better off in a NIGER DELTA REPUBLIC declared 1966, other than a Biafra decleared in 1967? It baffles me that these set of Igbos are poor student of history. Let me point out to you all that the North respected the Ijaws in Nigeria until the military took over. And guess who started coup plotting that Northerners mastered better? 5 Likes |

Maybe the same oil money that is used today to develop abuja, could have been used by ojukwu to develop Nnewi, or Onitsha, if we want to secede from nigeria, we will create our own niger delta republic, we dont want to jump from being a minority in nigeria to remaining a minority in biafra 1 Like |

whats done is done The solution to our problems is devolution Devolution will allow the various Nationalities in Nigerian live out their dreams within Nigeria. If that fails then we can talk about other things Asari should call his Oga at the top Jonathan Goodluck to start talking about True Fedralism and state clearly where he stands on the issue 2015 election should be a referendum on True Fedralism. |

ijaw citizen: Asari Dokubo is the greatest fool Ijawland has ever produced! 1.No, they won't agree with you. To them, it was Igbo alone that made Jonathan president. He could have won without SW and Northern votes. Those people that voted for him in the West, North and South now hate him.They never loved him. When Mid Western State was created from former Western Region, these people that loved their minorities did not see it fit that Ijaws too deserved a state. 2.They say one Nigeria is bad but are not calling on the president to either call a national conference or do away with the "rotten" Nigeria. But nevertheless want him to be in power to continue ruling the cesspit. They talk of SS/SE/MB alliance? But I asked, which MB? The Middle Belt of Gowon, Babaginda, Abubakar ? I laughed! 3.Is Jonathan presidency the same thing as Niger Delta Republic or resource control that Asari claimed to be fighting for in the past? What's the benefit of an average Ijaw in the scheme of things apart from self pride that our son is ruling? What's the benefit? All this desperate ethnic card would not have been necessary had Jonathan performed excellently. Instead of telling the president to perform, to concentrate on delivering for the common masses, they carry ethnic cards everywhere. 6 Likes |

Don't forget Asari Dokubo is Igbo by blood. Asari Uzodinma..... Biafra war was a war both sides should share the guilt. But Ojukwu had better choices than picking war. In fact choices that could have basically peacefully divided the nation or return each group of people within the nation to self rule. But for some Igbos to try and blame Awolowo for their suffering is just wrong. Awolowo's controlled region is still the most friendly region to Igbos and so it was when AWOLOWO WAS PREMIER! Igbos benefitted from policies especially Igbos living from Lagos mainland to western region. But then again, no one gives a Bleep about what stupid people think about Awolowo. 2 Likes |

The Igbo civilians were murdered (over 30,000) and the leader of Nigeria decided to do nothing about it. The Igbos were not safe again in Nigeria and Ojukwu was right to want out. It is funny that what Ojukwu was running for, what cost us 3 million innocent lives to prove is getting worse today, insecurity of lives still persist and the same notherners are still killing humans like fowls.
