NOBLEDANDY:


Abeg how are the Igbo's benefitting more than anyone else...
I will like to know

Ugomba:
Oya start agitating for Republic Of Edo.. who told you that An Akwa Ibom man will want a seperate country with edos in the name of Niger Delta?
Delta State, we want Federalism
Rivers state want Federalism
Akwa Ibom/Cross River want Federalism
Bayelsa want Federalism.
- Stop this attache by force and agitate for Edo Republic.. My opinion

Ugomba:
atbu1983 come and tell me what Edo nation will contribute to the "Niger Delta Republic"

Ugomba:
south west are yorubas. Its a monoethnic region

naijapips02:


Very good question.

What amount of Nigeria's GDP does the core igbo states contribute to?

How many percentage of igbo business's in Nigeria are outside the core igbo states?

scholes0:


Rubbish...
You won't ask what Cross River state will contribute to the Niger Delta Republic, because you are of the opinion that they are on the same wavelength with you.
But you will always question Edo state, which even though remains more blessed than Cross River in almost everything- are at logger heads with your silly fantasies...

lol!

Ugomba:
Cross River people here on Nairaland are matured and responsible, you don't see them making noise here and there.
And yes, Cross River will be ok in federalism.

NOBLEDANDY:


What do you mean by core??
And pls swerve your divide and rule antics and go directly and answer my question...

How are the Igbos benefitting more than other nationalities? that's my humble question pls.

scholes0:


Cross River is a poorer version of Edo, with much less potential.

Ugomba:
south west are yorubas. Its a monoethnic region

chuna1985:




It's a lie.

Many different groups makes up yoruba. Yoruba language is more or else a language that unifies all of them. Ijebu is one of those groups n there are many more (I don't remember their names) u can read about dem later, some came from Sudan too (A Yoruba traditional ruler said so some 3 months ago).

Even in igbo land; onitsha people are not igbos, same goes with Enugu Ezike + many more.

Ugomba:
Federalism in Nigeria is what I want.. With a prime minister in Aso Rock.

Euro31:
Tell that to the acclaimed nigerdelta spokespersons ... Barcanista nd Truckpusher .... They removed imo nd Abia from nigerdelta claiming only state in southsouth are nigerdelta states ... We the egbema in Rivers are igbos nd there is notin the ijaw can do abt it .... Ijaw group should stop speaking for all the ethnic group in SS

Ugomba:
be quiet, Cross River is more developed than Edo state.

atbu1983:


Let me tell you, only edo state is willing to form a country of its own. Edo state has enough oil to take care of only edo state.

To Make it clear to you, in the month of June, edo state got 1billion naira as 13 percent derivative. That means crude oil sales produced by edo state that month is 16billion naira.

However the total allocation to edo state that month of June 2015 was about 3billion naira.

If you dont know how 13% derivative is calculated let me tell you.

The total money from oil in FAAC account is divided with federal govt collecting about 52% and all the 36 states collecting about 48%.

It is inside the 48% for all the 36 states that 13% is collected and shared among oil producing states according to the amount of oil produced by that territory.

Now apart from crude oil, edo states has alot of palm oil. Note palm oil is d major source of Malasia economy. Edo also have alot of coal, timber and rubber. In edo north in Okpila edo has alot of Limestone.

naijapips02:


i will dedicate a new thread to this question. And please, i am igbo.

Nuellah02:
Gbam! Seconded! Egbema is Igbo and we will speak for ourselves.

ikechu1278:


Ugomba speak for yourself. What makes you think Nigeria would even allow Federalism. Most have been calling for it for how long now and yet the north keep pushing it down. My problem with Nigeria is not even the growth of that zoo but the high tribalism and hypocrisy found in that zoo in all aspect of it especially in their political system. Me personally, Nigeria is a hell on earth and everyone should go and answer their papa name the same our our ancestors did before European came and pushed us all together.

That don't mean I support some fathom ND republic. I rather Anioma be a country by itself than be in any fathom ND republic especially with edo and co judging by their behaviors on NL. For me, it's Biafra or nothing. If Biafra no come, it's Aniomaland country or nothing but as far as I'm confused..Nigeria..ND republic, etc is a no for me.

ikechu1278:


Dude be quiet. stop saying wtf you don't know

Ugomba:
you are right, the hausa/fulanis will find it hard to accept Federalism but it can be achieved by force.
Niger Delta republic will be worse than Nigeria..
Tribalism and hypocrisy in this nation stinks.

scholes0:


gerrarahere.
Cross river is all villages and forest outside Calabar.
Edo over Cross river even in my sleep.

ikechu1278:


Dude stop lying to people. Edo does not have coal and neither are you an oil producing state last I checked.

Secondly, the OP is telling you to stop shouting "SS" everywhere and speaking for every tribe. Speak for your Edo state or whatever tribe you from cause you can't even speak for Igbanke sef. I am saying this because I saw a post from you where you yet again spoke for Anioma. I repeat wtf we've said so many times on here...I don't remember anyone of us calling you up and told you to become our spokesperson. I don't recall asagba, obi of ogwashi uku, ibusa, igbodo, etc calling you up and asking you to become the spokeperson of Anioma. SPEAK FOR YOUR PEOPLE AND YOUR PEOPLE ALONE. Leave us be!!!

ikechu1278:


Have you even been to Edo state talkless of CR? Apart from one roundabout in Edo state, what else they have? Abeg, go eat garri you are hungry. CR murders Edo state anyday, anytime, anywhere and this is a fact!!

ThisMeansWAR:
lol ...grade a trash...

Ugomba:
Calabar is like Paris to Benin City.

scholes0:



loool....
So why is Edo head and shoulders above CR in most socio-economic indices?
Please never you compare CR to Edo again.

Ugomba:
Ijaws will dominate it, Count Anioma nation out pls!
A Nigeria with Federalism is better that a Niger Delta Republic which will be a clashing battle of many tribes.

Ugomba:
Calabar is like Paris to Benin City.

ikechu1278:


Which soci0-economic indices does edo state overshadow CR?

Like I said earlier..Go eat garri..you are obviously very hungry
