obailala:My brother, there is no need to assume. The SS have said NO to SE+SS seccession. We sympathise with you and it is my desire that the dream of every Igboman/woman is actualise but we don't subscribe to SS+SE Biafra. I think you should discuss within the context by not discarding the realities on ground. 2 Likes |

Eddygourdo:Have we not depended on oil for about 55years? How much longer will nigerians wait before true federalism is actualised? Even Buhari is talking about using gas for national development, instead of diversification of economy. This resource, alongside crude oil is exploited from a paricular region or some states in Nigeria and used to finance all states. Some Nigerians don't want to hear about true federalism but will always look up to the central government for funds. Truth be told that nigeria cannot practise true federalism, no matter how long funds are given to states for economic growth through the exploitation of oil and gas. 1 Like |

Truth4eva:I believe that this thread is meant for "intellectuals". That said, the Oil in question is 98% on the soil of South South ethnic groups that have said they(we) are not signatories to Biafran arrangement. I believe that Biafra will be actualise without a single opposition if you stop dragging SS into your Biafran map. Let it be for Igbos and watch the popular support it will get across board.

Truth4eva:There will be referendum because you want it or what? Ethnic nationalities in the SS since 1967 have said NO TO BIAFRA. They've said it at every fora and some lost their lives in the process(eg Boro). So what referendum do you need or who will force it? Perhaps there should also be Biafran referendum in Ibadan, Osogbo, kano, Borno, Zamfara etc. Bros, like I said, you will be surprised with the popular acceptance Biafra will get if you guys stop the attach SS by force in your map. Personally, I wish you guys well in the agitation but SS is not a party to it. Even if Oil fall to One Kobo, it still won't change our position... Beside, we have gas 1 Like |

TonyeBarcanista:you also have sea They keep mentioning referendum which they want holding in SE and SS. Any referendum in Nigeria will be held in the whole federation, north, west, east and South and it would be for the disintegration of Nigeria which I don't see happening. If they ibos want to go, they can go but without the SS. If they keep dragging or attaching the SS to their biafra struggle, then they should see themselves still struggling in the next 200yrs cos Nigeria won't allow such, not even the minority SS.

Eddygourdo:SS is not just a region, it consist of different ethnic nationalities that has NEVER been Biafra and have always maintained that they are NOT interested in Igbo Biafran projwct since 1967. Every ethnic nationalities have their own demand which chiefly rest on Resource Control and federalism WITHIN this NigeriaState. I believe ig the Ibos are convinced that Nigeria can't be better, all they have to do is to call for exit of their own group without attaching those that still believe in their own struggle(SS). It is All man for himself and God for everyone. When ogoni did their bill of rights they didn't include others. Same with ijaws, Binis, Urhobos, Ikwerre, Oron, Itsekiri etc. juicee1: I no get time to de argue that one. Whoever feels Rivers or PHC is Igbo should go and take it or go to court. Afterall, Lagos was once declared a No Man's Land but it doesn't stop it from being a Yoruba land. |

TonyeBarcanista: @TonyeBarcanista, This is one question I still keep asking and seeming Igbo folks on NL pretend or gloss over it. I believe it is better the Igbos make a thorough self assessment of their "assets" apriori even if the quest for Biafra will materialise. You SS are obviously not with them in the Biafra quest, and you have your own quest. How Oil all of a sudden turn's into Igbo Oil is another fallacy that beats my imagination.........a yoruba saying "If someone is leading you astray into the bush, you'd better force yourself back on track on the road" 1 Like |

Let's not derail this initiative with arguments of seccesion, what do we feel could be done to improve the sustainability of the south East. To prevent arguments in my own opinion the south East which comprises of the five igbo states is biafra, the south south will determine their fate. Let's talk as Igbos. Leave the oil issue alone, we can discuss our own oil. Our own solution to a sea route just as eurobomber has pointed out. Thanks |

ruggedboy01:exactly I like that question, it's very important it is addressed, you also can give suggestions, but I feel a political solution is best, if we had hood people with such vision at federal level, am sure such an Intiative can be funded, either solely or in foreign partnerships who are sympathetic to the cause |
