Himtulie247:
No one will stop Biafrans from going back to their Region !
When they relocate back to Biafra Land then we can now take them SERIOUS for Referendum or simply say Goodbye

So you support a referendum for Biafra? Now we are getting somewhere, and you are being reasonable. You hate igbos and they are a big problem in Nigeria, so why not let them leave so you guys can have peace

Himtulie247:
Let them first of all separate and leave other Regions of Nigeria and go back to Biafra Region.........
then we shall take them SERIOUS !!!

Give us Biafra region and we will leave. You won't even count 1 2 3, and it will happen. I swear to all mighty, I will Never return to any other part of Nigeria

I mean you should be supporting Biafra region anyway. Arent igbos a major problem in Nigeria? Don't you hate them will all ur heart? Let them go so you can rest finally

updatechange:


The shame is on you here brr… same way azikiwe was dragging western premiership with Awolowo after installing one Opara as the eastern premier. Shame

Why do you want to be in the same country as the Igbos that you hate so much? Why not just give them their own country, so that Nigeria can move forward finally!

Himtulie247:
These pipu

But please just answer my question. Why do you want to be in the same country as the Igbos that you hate so much? Why not just give them their own country, so that Nigeria can move forward finally!

flokii:


Your actions show you don't want to leave.. You can't be in Lagos dragging lands with the owners and still be claiming the people there are holding you back? Is it until they start bombing you before you pack and go?

Or you want to add Lagos too to your biafra map like you did to oil rich Rivers and Delta?

Just dey play.

Nobody wants to add anything to a Biafra map. Why dont you let the states that want to leave Nigeria leave, since these people are causing you soo much trouble?

flokii:


Mr. man go home and fix your region.. don't you have shame??

You are all over Lagos, Abuja,Kaduna etc. forming what I don't know but your tiny enclave in the East is a mess and complete disaster.

The greed of your forebearers like Zik is still very present in the offsprings but y'all are joking.. The new generation Yorubas will fvck your style up if your overstep your boundary. Na Awo dey follow una do romance, we no dey for rubbish.

Why do you want igbos in your country, if you dont like them soo much? Please EXPLAIN THIS Why not let them go so you can finally have peace so nigeria can move forward

flokii:
If Igbos can't go back and fix their tiny South East region, they should forget ruling a big country like Nigeria.. Governance is not child's play or chieftancy title to be gifted to Igbos.

We want competent,credible and tested hands in the helms of affairs for a better Nigeria.

If you hate igbos, why do you want them in your country so badly? Please explain this I dont understand. The north is the poorest part of Nigeria yet we have had many rulers from this region.

What is wrong with yall?

You dont want igbos to live in Lagos

You dont want Igbos to be in goverment

You dont want Igbos to separate from Nigeria

You claim you support ONE NIGERIA

What exactly do you want?

If you think that Nigeria would be better without them, why are you so hell bent in being in the same country as them?

Are they the reason of high unemployment? Let igbos have their own country if you [i]HATE [/i]them so much

old tribalistic people are the problem of not just nigeria but africa

while the white man is employing all races in his quest to get to Mars . nigerians are still complaining about tribe

mayor02:
From running to exile in 1993 to being the President in 2023, Tinubu has taught us that anybody can achieve anything no matter your current situation.

He spent 30 years preparing for this position and when the time came, he was too confident about knowing that now is his time.

Tinubu political journey and strategies deserve to be studied as a course in African Universities.

He taught us that the greatest investment is investing in humans. Money did not give him victory. Quality relationships gave him victory.

I am Obidient and I wish Tinubu didn’t win, but Tinubu success and greatness cannot be denied

People like you are the reason why Nigeria has so many issues. This guy is a criminal and you are claiming he is the greatest politician in Nigerias history. When he steals all the money Nigeria has you will act surprised.

How can a criminal be the greatest Nigeria has to offer!!!!! We have to promote good people in goverment or dont be surprised when our leaders are corrupt leaders who only steal and go to dubai & London

designking:
I am from Sapele and this article is very apt. Even the popular Igbo Quarters was taken away from the Igbos and back to the Okpe community.

The Igbos are always are loggerhead with their host community until it climax to a major bloodshed.

I.just hope Lagos doesn't get to that stage. One reason I hardly acquire property in Lagos is because I know for certain, that a major supremacy battle will occur soon and we Niger Deltans might suffer casualties because we are always mistaken for Igbos

You are a fool. Nobody from the niger delta would write the nonsense you just wrote

Who.is hold you....

If it is possible for you to go ...you could have left since 1960....but because You have little resources to cater for yoirsleves ...and that is the reason you can not go alone...you want to pull Niger+delta along by all means....and control their oil well.
Onyi dot.....


Go...

would you let the south east and any other state in the south south go if there was a referendum? shut up

you guys are getting ridiculous. So marrying someone from another tribe is a crime in Nigeria now?? You guys are setting Nigeria back 50 years!

we should be focusing on building roads not that someone’s mother is from this tribe

Babalegba:

Why is Germany closely following Nigeria's election?
Daniel Pelz
10 hours ago10 hours ago
Nigerians are angry about their country's economic woes and violent conflicts — perhaps not the best environment in which to hold a smooth election. But the result will impact the West African nation's ties with Germany.

The stakes are not only high for the candidates running in Nigeria's 2023 election. The world will be watching closely to see how the poll is run and who will win. That's because Nigeria is not just any country, but "a voice that carries international weight," as German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock put it last year.

Nigeria is Africa's largest economy and most populous country. Abuja's influence on how the African Union positions itself on international issues, be they climate change or Russia's war in Ukraine, is correspondingly great.

"We want to work more closely with this important partner," Baerbock said ahead of her December 2022 trip to Nigeria.

Observers believe that whether this will happen or not, depends on how the elections go.

"It is the first time that we are holding elections in a state of general uncertainty. The territorial integrity of Nigeria is at stake," said Nkwachukwu Orji of the University of Nigeria.

Separatists and criminal gangs in the south, bloody conflicts between farmers and herders in the center and Islamist terror in the north have plunged large parts of the country into chaos.

Rising tensions amid closely contested race

Political observers in Berlin and other European capitals fear the situation could further deteriorate. Previous elections have led to outbreaks of violence, although the security situation was better then. This election is being very closely contested because Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari must step down after serving two terms.

Three presidential hopefuls are vying to succeed him. Besides Bola Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar of the People's Democratic Party — two parties that have dominated Nigeria's politics since the 1990s — there is another strong contender: Millionaire businessman Peter Obi for the Labour Party, a particularly popular contender among young voters.

Western donors are worried that the outcome of the election might lead to violence or long disputes over the winner, weakening Nigeria's leadership role in Africa. But it need not come to that.

"The outcome of elections in Nigeria is difficult to predict. Several times in Nigeria's history, there have been fears of violence after an election, and nothing happened," said Lynda Iroulo of Georgetown University in the United States. Nigeria's then-President Goodluck Jonathan, who relinquished power peacefully after his defeat in 2015, is one example.

Western countries worry about migration

But if things go wrong this time, or if the new government fails to get Nigeria's problems under control, there will be additional consequences for Western countries.

"Migration will be a big issue. Already a lot of people are leaving. It shows how little they trust the country to take care of its people," researcher Orji told DW.

The uncertainty has made partners like Germany uneasy.

For a long time, Nigeria was among the 10 main countries of origin for asylum-seekers in Germany. And for just as long, Germany has pushed Nigeria to slow down irregular migration and accept the return of rejected asylum-seekers more quickly.

The issue was always central to bilateral talks between ex-Chancellor Angela Merkel and President Buhari.

The result of the 2023 election could also have an impact on future migration cooperation.

"Peter Obi is the only one of the three candidates who has not only promised closer relations with foreign countries, but also wants to change the way Nigerians are treated in Western countries," said Iroulo.

An Obi government could demand that Germany make it easier for Nigerian citizens to get a visa. This is something Berlin is probably not likely to willingly accept.

Nigeria an important trading partner for Germany

The German business community is looking forward to the upcoming change of power in Nigeria, regardless of who ultimately wins the race.

"All candidates in the run are more business-friendly than the current government," said Christoph Kannengiesser of the German-African Business Association.

He saw potential for a closer cooperation. Nigeria is the second most important trading partner for German companies in sub-Saharan Africa after South Africa. "Nigeria is a difficult but interesting market for German companies," Kannengiesser told DW.

UselessBuharist:


100% I know the day he was killed, I have seen the guy in a friend’s birthday party before

Are you a nigerian?

UselessBuharist:
That guy was killed by fellow Nigerians in a cult clash in Midrand South Africa.

There is no xenophobia happening here in SA oo

Are you sure?

Aisha Buhari's brother (same father, same mother) is apparently the Director General of Nigerian Security Printing and Minting Company. They're the ones responsible for printing Naira notes. This is according to Hajiya Najaatu on Arise News. These people shared the National cake

I really wish one day someone gets into power that can open up the can of corruption in Nigeria and throw all these people into jail wallahi.

And anyone who thinks Aisha Buhari means anything well for Nigeria is a foolish person and a liar.

This is why these people will rather burn down this country than relinquish power. They're strategically placed all over Government and in the private sector. They all got there through nepotism. And they're there doing nothing but milking this country dry while Nigerians suffer

SmartPolician:
Please let's be logical here. Buhari has worked hard to become the president of Nigeria. It means that he has worked hard for many people related to him and his family members.

If that Aisha's brother is qualified to be the head of the agency, why won't he have that position? Nigerians are hypocrites. You will do worse than Buhari if you had his opportunity.

How can the president of a country appoint his wifes brother to be In charge of head of minting and printing? It's called a conflict of interest, you're supposed to hire somebody else!

You can't just appoint members of your family to positions of power, as if this country is your personal property Cmon man!

So if I become president, I will make my son the VP, my father the minister of police and my mother CBN chair. All because they have degrees

I think I will vote LP because these guys are too corrupt
