@ OP

First, please read up on the Acts of Union which united the English and Scottish Parliaments in 1707.

Second, I also don't believe that a referendum was carried out before Biafra was declared.

Third, I also don't believe that Scotland took over Britain violently, implemented a unitary form of Government, and then declared an Independent nation after Scottish sons were kicked out of power.


The process of becoming an independent state takes many years. The Scottish have been on this journey since the mid-19th century. A number of factors has made it longer than it should have.

It is a fact that no Lord Noblezone from Biafra invaded and forcefully took over the land and the resources of Scotland and later by a piece of paper formed "one" Britain.

Before I read up the Acts of the Union which united the English and Scottish parliaments in 1707, i will galdly like to first and foremost read up the Acts of the union which united the Jihardists with the Biafrans in 1914.

There was no need for that referendum then, but we need it now.

Sir, Biafra did not take over Nigeria violently and then declared independent after her sons were kicked out of power.

I don't know which history you have been reading.

Biafra was not declared because "our sons" were kicked out of power! It was declared because Our sons, daughters, fathers, mothers, uncles, aunties, nephews, nieces. brothers, sisters, young, old, were being slaughtered across Nigeria by Nigerians and there was no moves to stop it.

Let me remind you that when we say that Anioma part of Delta belongs to us, you say no. yet Nzeogwu whom you call "our son" is from Anioma!

Cheers

I don't think an average Scottish will vote for independence, Scotland cannot simply sustain itself and many Scottish know this themselves. All the noise about independence is just a political strategy by SNC to hold on to power.
Scotland is presently being subsidized by England and I can bet that if they chose to become Independent, they'll be bankrupt within 5 years.

This I agree with. Also why the Scottish haven't gone for a referendum in all these years.

The irony about Scottish independence move is that it was started by Nationalists who claim that Britain was giving more money to Ireland which wasn't a part of the Union.

So lets see who carries the day - economic interests or Scottish nationalism.

I watched some of Scottish nationalist talk about how the north sea oil will bring much wealth to Scotland, they forget that by the time they take their own share of the UK debt their income will be so eroded that they'll have little left.
Also what about the NHS, security and currency? At the moment Scotland is running a nanny state with almost everything free; prescription, University fees (almost free) and many more. And this is a country that is very racist and hostile to immigrants. Apart from oil companies, I don't know of any way they can attract many more viable business to Scotland, it will be interesting to see how everything unfolds.

That's nonsense and you know it. In fact the last of many actions actions of Ojukwu that precipitated the shooting war was a sequestration of federal oil revenues.
In fact you can say that Odumegwu Ojukwu brought war to the entire people of Eastern region by his stubborness whilst engaging in shameful rabble rousing and crass opportunism.

Below is the conversation among these yoruba dudes. The know their region will be up in flame if nigeria divides... by shymexx(m): 10:12pm On

naijababe:
It is easy to blame Balewa
and Zik for 'wetie' but the
real culprits were our
leaders namely Awo &
Akintola! The dichotomy of
the Western Yoruba vs.
Eastern Yoruba of old is still
very much alive and well .
I don't know much about it,
however, if it's still strong. Then
it would definitely re-appear in
any type of regionalism, or
federal unit the Yoruba's would
be classified as. Because there
would be a "center" and that
might re-open old wounds.
However, with outright
balkanization and true-
federalism in the new country,
where Western and Eastern
Yoruba (or should I say each
subgroup) would constitute a
single federal unit - that wouldn't
be a problem.
So if you're against balkanization
because of that, then the current
status quo in Nigeria remains the
safe bet.

Driven by the need to outdo
those we consider competitions,
Yoruba would fare well in a
Nigeria under a regional
structure or Confederacy. As
much as I dislike Tinubu, you
certainly can't argue with what
he has achieved in making
Yorubas want to work together
and he has achieved that mainly
because 'we' see the FG as a
deterrence to our progress/
advancement.

ShyMexx to be frank, a new Odua
will inevitably face certain
challenges, ones that would be
as a result of the contention that
will ensue between powerful
traditional statesmen. !
Let me take this instance.
We today's Westerners see a
Fashola as a Messiah-like force
that as come to be amidst us. But
dont you think Fashola may have
it tough dealing with Falaes, the
Adesinas of Oyo, etc. ....i mean,
the whole picture's just 4kin'
complex & confusing.
Suffice to say, a mistake i believe
we havent addressed is not to
bother to iron out differences
now that the Yoruba bond is still
in good condition.
BUT THE CONCLUSION IS, though
these might all present
themselves as challenges, I STILL
WANT THIS GOD-DAMNED British
Scam called 'Nigeria' GO INTO
FLAMES.
I want it DAMN BADLY Men. !!

Look at you! Pitching Oyo and far
away Ondo together. Let's start
with just OYO! Think the powers
that be, the Ibadan strongmen,
the Oyo/Ogbomoso strongmen
and the Ibarapa ones.
Don't even get me started on

By all MEANS, the Aniomas belong to Ibos IF THEY SAY SO! I am sure no part of Nigeria or individual will dispute where the people want to belong or who they say the are! However, it is a very fair and equitable intervention if any other parts of Nigeria stand against Ibos if they forcefully want to annex or subjugate the Aniomas! It is that simple...the same goes for any people from any part of Nigeria!

Of course! We at least agree on that one.

Personally, I'd want Nigeria to become independent countries with all non-native populations LEAVE to their lands - that is a decision that is not up to them as soon as Nigeria breaks up! Nothing would be better than that but on a more practical note, will other Nigerians and the people in the immediate position to influence this allow their bread and butter be taken away from them?? I really doubt that, they would do anything to keep Nigeria the way it is so that they can keep milking most of its benefit for themselves!

So, perhaps the compromise is for both sides to shift to a middle point where we all gain some and we all lose some - and go to make the best of it - the answer is regional governments! People of other regions might still have some opportunity to come into another region because it is still the same country but I would rather in fact prefer that we all go build our own ends of the country. However, national problems that we have struggled with for so long become more localized - if any peoples cannot solve their problems, they do not hold others down! If a leader is corrupt, the people are only a bus or taxi-ride away to come and ask for his head not when they are hiding 700 - 800 KM away! Quota system is destroyed immediately because everyone now knows there is competition and the regions must make enough money by the end of the month if it must pay salaries, naturally, mostly competent people will be employed! Most people understand that their chances are improved if they can get a good education and try to achieve better results because there is no guaranteed jobs for uneducated or unmotivated workers! The regions who continue incompetence can do just that but they will not be getting a dime from the parts that work hard, not from oil or taxes! If they want to starve to death or bomb themselves off the earth, they can do just that too! Criminals from other parts of the country who have operated without being caught now know that the police in their regions need to earn their pay! An insecure regions will get less and less economic activities so crime must be wiped out! The list goes on and on, however it would be foolhardy to reject the intermediate compromise if we cannot get independent countries now! Nigeria should get the next best thing and maybe in another 50 years, each regions might have found a better way to make things work for the entire country or be in a better position to become independent countries!
