onumadu:I don't think it is clueless for the south East not to be connected to sea, and in fact South East is, however south east was created to be an Igbo region, forget about the stupid propaganda of today, Zik was very influential during the last state creations and remember Shehu Shehu shagari and alex ekwueme, the minorities in the east complained a lot in the first Republic why, some things happen the way it is bad it is great that way, unlike the west, the west, the east was more diverse and it is treat that we Igbos have a distinct region to ourselves, if you are worried about sea access we are still part of Nigeria, we have the higher inland water so sea access is very much there what we need for now is production cause if you open the sea without export then you would be an importers which is bad 1 Like |

the 6 zones is better. Each region should have control of their resources while a certain fraction goes to the federal government e.g 70/30. Regions should also control their security stuff like Regional,state, Local govt police, state army reserves units comprised of residents and citizens of that state. Things will improve for the better. The politicians will have no excuse to give that FAAC can only pay salaries, there would be accountability and security would be grassroot. No more Abuja excuse, no more police intimidation because the police officer will be either from that region, state, or local council. Our culture would be respected and we would leave in peace knowing what law obtains in each region, like we have in sharia. you see because Nigeria is a multi-ethnic country development can only start from the ground-up, thr top-down approach is not working because it doesn't comform with some others value system. 2 Likes |

AlexBells: You are clueless and I can prove it immediately... Is North Central ethnically homogeneous (ie one ethnic group)? Is North East ethnically homogeneous? Is North West ethnically homogeneous? Even South West is not homogeneous (never mind the propaganda, Lagos is not "Yoruba" but "Yoruboid" and so forth). And of course South south is NOT ethnically homogeneous. All the zones mentioned above have one thing in common: each has either direct access to the sea, or direct access to another country. South East is the only zone with neither. And South East is the only ethnically homogeneous zone. Why is that? You people who don't have any training in strategic thinking should not be commenting or leading opinion on Igbo affairs because you know nothing. Nnamdi Kanu alone has more competence in strategic thinking than Zik and Ekwueme combined. Quote me. ![]() 1 Like |

onumadu:I think if you are a Kanu fan, Great but the way you throw the word clueless around pass you easily as a stack fool, what was your grandfather doing when Zik, Ekwurme and co was being clueless, I think this I know it all is what kept you were you are, since you know a lot why not take a step at leadership and see where it gets you. What is with having boundary with another country, would that improve your production, you said south south has this, are the Igbos not part of south south. Have you ever studied the geography of the south East, to ensure that it has no sea access, the seaports in Lagos, isn’t it built in a lagoon, was it a direct seaport, is there any direct sea port in Nigeria, do you know the process of state creation from the time of the East central? Where you there when Gowon started to create the states knowing taht Ojukwu would hold majority Igbo territory then created states around the East central, why not blame Ojukwu then for declaring Biafra while being badly equipped. I think some of you are just shallow and above all having this self declared intellect that is bound to mislead, is Switzerland not landlocked, so having border with Cameroon is now an achievement? As for access to sea you are part of the brainwashed lots taht cant differentiate between AlaIgbo and South East |
Re: What If We Never Restructure Nigeria by spearman(m): 3:41pm On Oct 03, 2023 |
AlexBells: Alaigbo is you illusional fantasy. Those people you are claiming to be Ibos in the Niger delta are embarrassed of the association with you and barely tolerate you. Claim all your impossible "alaigbo" and you still won't smell the sea. Check out your alaigbo here. https://www.nairaland.com/6609367/asaba-inlaw-whole-world-couldnt

spearman:Till then, for now it is what it is, I don't even think we have any serious issues with Edo, I'm from Ezikoba and I put it to you that the only contested territory we have with Edo or whatever you call it is Igbanke and they would either get a peaceful Refendum or a violent annexation whichever way, all options are on the table as for Opobo and Bonny either the Ijaws accept a peaceful means or Refendum or direct annexation and potentially seizing more territories as spoil would ensure whichever way, Nigeria existence has been a saving grace |
Re: What If We Never Restructure Nigeria by gidgiddy: 4:41pm On Oct 03, 2023 |
spearman: Smell the sea? Did we tell you we want to go to the beach? We are talking about Regions here. If Regions are to be created, it will be done by referendum. When referendum comes, it will be a once in life time opportunity for different people to choose where they want to be. People are most likely to go with people whom they share a lot in common with like language and culture, rather than people they dont even know what they are saying Of there is referendum, it is most likely that all the Igbo speaking people will choose to be in one Region |
Re: What If We Never Restructure Nigeria by Armaggedon: 4:46pm On Oct 03, 2023 |
onumadu:God in heaven knows that aside from Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB, I am scared about this crop of Igbos and their strategic thinking capability. No thinking about their political future. No tact, no strategy and no long term political ambitions such as self determination. The Igbo politician cares about selling his people for his selfish ambition and the Igbo common man just wants to leave for other region and set up his business without asking why critical infrastructure to support that business such as seaport, railway etc is lacking in the East. Such a careless lifestyle that have catastrophic consequences. The major problem of the East is the disruption of economic and cultural integration of Eastern region. Eastern region (southeast and South South) can never develop if this anomaly is not corrected. Either the entire eastern region +lower Benue becomes Biafra or Igboland including Delta and Rivers state go their own way. One must happen. |

Re: What If We Never Restructure Nigeria by AlexBells(m): 5:22pm On Oct 03, 2023 |
spearman:You mean Opobo and Bonny are also Ediod and Obigbo, Etche, Onelga are also Edoid, cause we need to know where and who we are fighting at where and when, we are not opposed to any option either. For now I think the bigger issue is with Ijaw but if Benin or Edo refuse the carrot of referendum on contested areas, then the stick of war may as well be valid if such option becomes the way out |

Re: What If We Never Restructure Nigeria by onumadu: 7:13pm On Oct 03, 2023 |
Armaggedon: Your head is fixed tightly on your shoulders. I see kids commenting on things they totally lack comprehension of. Left to those kids, they would cede all parts of Igboland just because some Yoruba masquerades shouted their usual hypocrisy. I repeat, Nnamdi Kanu is a better strategic thinker than Zik and Ekwueme combined. Ojukwu even barely escaped my addition to the list of clueless Igbo, and it is because he ensured that Biafra government had healthy representation from so called South south. My only anger with Ojukwu is from what his friend Frederick Forsythe noted about Biafran strategy during the war. He said Ojukwu refused to change to guerilla tactics when it was obvious that Biafra couldn't sustain conventional warfare. He said had Ojukwu done that, Biafra would never have lost the war. And I know that there were many Biafrans who suggested that to Ojukwu, but he refused. His clueless unwillingness to re-strategize cost Biafra the war. So, yes, as long as Nnamdi Kanu stays the course of his strategy, all will be well. Forget about all these kids who want to form a country inside another HATEFUL country. If South Africa hated Lesotho with passion, there is absolutely no way there would be a Lesotho, I rest my case. |
