Wow. That will be interesting. To be honest, looking at the present situation, it looks unrealistic. If the author saw it, who am to disapprove of his work? chieveboy: 1 Like |

hammerDK: there's no way zik would have rejected them. he was a globalist/nationalist, who wanted igbos to control the politics, economics, education e.t.c. of the other regions in Nigeria. if zik had limited his ambitions to eastern Nigeria, we will not have fulani invaders in our forest today despite been joined with northern nigeria. 1 Like |

GeneralPula: The person has to lecture you. When you read it on Google, it is supposed to have guided you. I believed all the people talking about 12% or 13% are IBOs. The fact that they speak Yoruba or not speaking Yoruba is not what makes them Yorubas. They have historical and ancestral foundation to Yorubas which they can never forget. Let me quote the man again. " The founder of Popo, sabe, ajashe in Benin republic they're brothers (probably the youngest) to the founder of Owu, Oyo, etc in Yoruba land they're all oduduwa grand children". There are some other Yorubas up to Ghana. The IBOs cannot say what they don't know. The IBOs don't know the history of Onipopo of Popo and Onisabe of Sabe in Yoruba history. The majority of the tribes have Yoruba ancestry linkage. 3 Likes |

This is best described as DISTRACTION, FG trying to frustrate and distract Biafra and Oduduwa Republic agitators. Nigeria will disintegrate but how it will happen I don't know. |

myami: if you look at the world map you'll see that north africa and europe are close to each other and its easy for anyone to cross over to the other. even the place we call middle east is still part of Africa more like north eastern Africa but it will never be called such by the e:uropeans. |

codemaniacs: Zik was not a bigot like Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello. Zik actually was pro Black and into pan Africanism, after studing in America, during the civil right movement. He willfully, agreed to give the core North a MAJORITY in parliament, by seceding Benue, Kogi, Taraba and Kwara to the North, just to keep them in one Nigeria, when they wanted to leave. I know they dont teach history in Nigeria but with the internet, you can actually read up on these things rather than lies passed on through oral history. https://kwekudee-tripdownmemorylane..com/2013/06/nnamdi-azikiwe-great-pan-africanist-and.html 1 Like

As a patriotic Nigerian, in a properly functioning nation, this would be good. More land and more territory on a platter. That is What China is going to war to get. The problem is that Nigeria is not functioning properly. The north is not allowing us enjoy this country. 1 Like |

And to be honest, I would rather we build bridges with Benin republic than with Niger republic. Benin republic has a freaking port. We can finally control their port and maximise it for the benefit of Nigeria. What does Niger republic have to offer us? 2 Likes |

And that is one blow to France afrique. Another African nation torn from the bosom of France. A win for Africa anyday. But all these hypothesis are valid when Nigeria is governed by human beings. It is currently not governed by human beings. Animals are currently in charge. 1 Like |

topboss: You are an IBO man who does not know history but displaying your frustration on Social media. Your brothers at Alaba and trade fair complex have them as customers. They can ask them questions about their ancestral foundation. The FON people according to all historical reports are found in Benin Republic and South West Nigeria. |

SmartPolician:You should be smart enough through an APC-leaning media trying to pull off a simple-minded mendacity... Reading through the vacuous report, were able to see where an unqualified statement was made that Benin wanted to join Nigeria? What was intended as a joke was carried away like a fool's gold by misguided elements.... |

hammerDK: zik was actually a worse bigot than Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello. kogi, taraba were created in 1991 while benue was created in 1976, kwara was created in 1967 by gowon, zik wasn't anywhere near power when at least 3 of the states were created. its not bigotry when you don't interfere in regions that have nothing to do with your ethnic nation.... its bigotry to interfere in regions that have nothing to do with your ethnic nation and this is what zik encouraged because he wanted igbos to control all the regions in Nigeria, zik wasn't content with the eastern region. what you call pro-black and pan Africanism is actually globalists.. and its a very bad ideology unless the participants don't interfere in each others politics e.t.c. 2 Likes |

hammerDK: He said a very bitter and vital truth. Just compare the benefits of Niger Republic and Benin Republics to Nigeria and tell us the outcome. The only thing is that Niger, Chad and Northern Cameroon are already part of Nigeria. Please, compare the benefits, the Southern Nigeria is waiting for your analysis. |
