Put words in my mouth nah. Since you try to judge me, today I go finish you...you hypocrite. Full of hate? Actually yorubas are ones full of hate. Yorubas have no conscience at all otherwise they will be out there protesting that is not fair that Lagos ports and airport are the major destinations for shipping and flying despite SE and SS/oil companies accounting for nearly 80% of patronage. Despite Port Harcourt, Calabar and Warri ports being closer to the ocean than Lagos ports. Yorubas and including yourself are aware of this wickedness but keep quiet because you people have no conscience, just outright wicked and hateful. I'm sure you were in church or mosque today...hypocrites.

lol SE and SS/oil companies ?
really? how many are in south east pls. why cant you pple be progressive for once. how do you xpect business in your region when you are either known for militancy or armed robbery, kidnapping or drug smuggling. you cant force pple to do business with you when you have questionable character even your brothers prefer lagos and kano than their homes. come to kwari market in kano and see your business men. yet they say nigerians are hostile to them.this hatered is getting to much .all this hate talk is unneccesary let you guyz be men enough and go to war with the nigerian state simple lets get the matter settled quickly #smh

How did the existence of bokoharam which was restricted to a tiny region (mainly borno) prevent GEJ from developing the niger delta or any other peaceful area?

How is the NDA making Buhari unable to start any developmental work in Nigeria after one year? Wawa kawai.

Congratulations! The bible says my people perish because they lacketh understanding

These nda are a blessing in disguise to Nigeria and Nigerians. The issue is this nation needs to be restructured and as long the oil keep flowing,and billions of dollars keep going to Abuja everyday,noone will think about the national problem. Politicians will not talk about this problem as long as their fat allowance is coming and bogus contracts keep coming.
The sad truth we must face is that NIGERIA ISNT ONE ,THIS IS A FORCEFUL UNION OF UNWILLING MEMBERS . Sooner or later the friction will overcome the union

OK. Let me just get something... is bombing of assets the way to invite economic development... like will it improve/increase investor confidence

Now there is an international airport in Enugu now... why not make the region more friendly to attract more airlines and businesses to remove the "lagos monopoly"

I won't invest in a region where I know my assets are not safe.. where some nut heads will just wake up one morning and decide they wanna blow up my stuffs..

Well done boys

If yoruba is man enough...let's separate this country and let's see who will do better.

Stingman:



Faruk as Stella is all you see...Were you happy when you heard the federal government was building Enugu airport? What's your take with 2nd Niger bridge which will be on PPP, while Third Mainland bridge wasn't? Lagos- Ibadan is going on while Enugu-Onitsha stretch could go the same way of PPP. Do you consider this schism, the best approach for a united country? Would you want those from the region so affected to be happy Nigerians? I want your best response and not insult...

To start, I don't do insults. As a Muslim I get enough from Christian as it is and I will not descend to their level

I don't want to be sucked into tribalistic arguments
I clarified the case of Faruk and Stella because you used it as an example
I think Obasanjo or Yaradua started Lagos-Ibadan expressway on a PPP with Bi-Courtney, when he failed to perform, Jonathan took it from him (under Mike Onolememen) and awarded it to RCC and Julius Berger. I am not sure it was PPP. The continuation by Fashola might also not be PPP

I have seen arguments from various people and can say confidently that many will talk about their own issues

Let me tell you something - go back and read my past posts, I have defended Niger Delta people when necessary
and I once pointed out to a poster from the SE or SS (I don't remember which) who was gloating when (during Jonathan regime) some people were talking about marginalisation that what she was doing was unfair

My point? - many people will validly complain about marginalisation at all times or at different times

Now let me tell you my position on three issues
(1) All the major roads should be fixed, But I am sure that the government should does not have the fund. So they should be funded with loans and ALL of them should be tolled - whether in NW, SW, NE, SE or anywhere. It is better to pay N100 toll than to nearly lose your life to bad road or spend N5,000 to change tires, rims etc
(2) whoever wants to leave this country should be free to leave, with their land or oil or whatever. They should just promise to be good and fair neighbours. God is the one that provides for His creation. I don't believe in relationship where anyone is not happy. I believe in marriage and divorce
(3) I am a Muslim, Christians should stop talking about Islamisation when any HONEST and God-fearing person can see that this country is being christianised. Hijab is banned in public schools in Lagos but I know a PUBLIC school in LAGOS that bans Hijab with additional measures but same school organises Christmas carol. I am woken up frequently at 3am by house fellowship but Christians continue to make this campaign of "islamisation"

They should blow of everything.

The irony of what you are saying above is that it was GEJ who put the 2nd niger bridge on PPP even though he built the lokoja-oweto bridge for free. And even whilst he did that, there was not a single voice of opposition from any single south eastern leader or even the masses; instead he was urged to go on and any person who dared to speak up then against the ppp arrangement was tagged a hater of the SE, even few south easterners like myself who dared to speak against the exploitative ppp arrangement were tagged 'efulefu', 'yoruba', daft, etc.

In the light of the above, I find it rather bizzare that just in 2016, we are already having some people like yourself already blaming buhari/apc for the PPP arrangement and painting it to be some sort of marginalisation; if I may ask, who engineered this particular ill treatmenr of the SE?... was it not the SE itself while it was licking Jonathans boots blindly?

How is the NDA making Buhari unable to start any developmental work in Nigeria after one year? Wawa kawai.

Buhari's first budget has only been passed just 2 months ago and some developmental projects have begun in earnest; I'm sure you've seen thread on this forum of contractors going back to site in several major roads projects across the federation?... You cant claim not to have seen that.

There was not a single developmental project last year because the budget for 2015 (which by the way was not drawn by buhari) made provisions mainly for salary payment, it had next to nothing allocated for capital projects.

Already for several months, the bombings have reduced planned national income by half, the budget for 2016 is already in a deficit and that means even the projects planned for this year cannot all be executed, that is sad as it makes an already bad situation worse. What I do not understand is the psyche of those who actually celebrate this collective misfortune.

You don't understand as most of yorubas don't understand. There is strong effort by North to keep SE and SS down. I will agree with you and blame Igbos for Enugu airport not being attractive as you said if Port Harcourt and Calabars airports were equally as good as Lagos and Abuja....but they are not as they too are intentionally being underfunded to function below average.

Another twist to the tale.

Its sad that after the excruciating fuel scarcity we just recovered from, there are actually people who celebrate that refineries are being crippled by nda. What kind of opposition is that for Christ's sake?... and these people celebrating this are ordinary Nigerians who also suffer the pain of the fuel queues.

mosaicafrique:
Am from ND but our leaders from ND are too greedy and selfish just because the want to always be the boss.Tompolo, Ayiri, Asari Ateke are all billoniares .why havent they come up with good plans for development when our brother was in power? But now they secretly sponsor bombings. Hahaha at most this govt will do is spend millions buying time in the name of cleaning up ND who loose na still me and you.Na who clean up EPP abi clean up na hospital abi na bridges abi na schools for we children. Or good markets for we women them.just kwontunu.

I have always wondered how amnesty to less than 1% of the people can bring peace
Were I from ND, having demonstrated the ability to inflict pain on the government, I would go for dialogue on the following terms
We don't need a ND Ministry or NDDC
We need a consultative forum that must sit every quarter and the event must be carried live on TV and radio
Every ethnic group in the ND will be represented on the forum
Youth should be represented
Each will present what they require - roads, hospitals, schools etc
The budget for all will be considered and allocated
Next meeting will look at video images of projects that have been implemented based on what was agreed at the last meeting
New projects can be considered based on availability of money

I will not allow anyone to provide security because in the event of tribal dispute one tribe will have more arms than others
Security should be provided by the FG

This is just from the top of my head. It needs reworking but the fact is that amnesty payment to even 500,000 people cannot solve the collective problems of millions living in the ND

When ppl talk,listen carefully,most ppl never listen.the like of Buhari and co

Did I mention any government in my post? The SE has been marginalized by all successive government..GEJ's government was a bit better than the rest, but it has nothing to write home about. At least we were able to get an airport. Can you mention what other government did since after the war? Igbo decided to stick with GEJ as they felt Buhari would be worse...and his living to the assumption...So I don't see all the Igbos, expect you, licking Buhari's jack boots blindly!

Today PH airport is a carcass and was even ranked the worst airport in the world last year. GEJ who is from the SS refused to release a dime to fix the PH airport through his 5 years but GEJ his supporters actually celebrate GEJ upgrading airports around Nigeria including Kano airport.

But right now, here we have Mr Nkem trying to paint a picture that it is the north and the SW who are sabotaging the airport and other facilities in the SS and SE. How on earth can any sound person reconcile these stories?

This isnt really about licking buhari's boots, its just about passing judgement justly and identifying where the real problem is. The problem is purely a vacuum of wise and patriotic leadership. Where were great minds like Peter Obi when GEJ was forcing the SE to pay for the 2nd Niger bridge through a ppp arrangement?.... Other tribes across Nigeria are simply watching out for their own people, but it appears all Igbo leaders do is watch out for their personal pockets. This is the real problem that has led to the marginalisation.

The existence of boko in a tiny region (mainly borno) could not have stopped gej from developing the rest of nigeria where there was peace. Kindly tell me if I'm wrong here?

If gej had developed the rest of nigeria, boko haram couldnt have been an issue to his reelection. But can we honestly point out any major road project for instance which was started and finished in the south which was peaceful?

Lie. If your point is punctured you move to the order...So it wasn't about licking Johnathan's boot,hu? Now can you check how many times Obi and the Igbo leaders visited Jonathan and past governments to also develop Igbo land land as they do other regions? What else do you want them to do? NASS members, even the current VP has visited the region and confirmed that the federal roads there are worse in the country...but yet they were able to start Lagos -Ibadan and Mokwa- Ilorin road... What have you done yourself...? You are simple happy blaming Obi and others..

Nkem4040:


What many Nigerians don't know is part of the agenda of the so-called Lagos - Calabar Rail is to lift crude oil in bulk oil rail tankers from Niger Delta to Lagos...straight to Dangote refinery. Our people in SS and SE don't know this...that's why they fought tooth and nail to make sure that project was in the budget.

Which one is ss and se, ipob realising they irrelevant with out the attachment. It makes you feel good atleast.What pains me most is that you are not the only one with this irrational thinking. You and the likers of your post are somewhat pathetic.

Nothing you say here is going to make sense, gej has 6years to turn things around in the so called region. But no, yoruba who has produced just obj as a president is your problem. Park well.
