How many of these delusional livestock is sold directly by the government and such money is distributed to the 36 States of the Federation? I thought you had any cogent point to make not knowing it's a regurgitation of trites that every 'scholars' from the other side spew... Wehdone.

As for me, there are too many contradictions and injustice already. Some people are so alien to the other. The only thing that unites us is geography, sports and manipulations by politicians. Is there any hope? Yes! As distinct and diverse as we are, tension, fears and diffidence can be avoided with true federalism. Our diversity could be a force but not when people like you come up with concoctions and conjectures to defend a sinking order. Nigeria will definitely disintegrate if we fail to tell ourselves the truth.

hardcore!.....they dont want to stop...i made up my mind..i dont want anything to do with igbos no more....

codemaniacs:


99% of southern Nigerians are extremely hardworking, independent, resilient and work towards been successful... So there is a very high possibility in the "constituent units" been better off and very successful as long as rebel groups are not sponsored by foreigners to cause mayhem like the case of Ojukwu and Ironsi been used to destroy regionalism(I believe the civil war was orchestrated by foreigners because the north wanted to separate during that time and the "foreigners" knew if the resources was left with southern Nigeria there was a possibility of there been a very powerful African country)..

Unlike 1966/1967 where the SE leaders wanted to rule SW(even Biafran army targeted the SW)... Present day Igbos(not igbo politicians) are more concerned about developing the SE. If Ojukwu had focused on developing the SE and not on trying to conquer other tribes then there would have never been a civil war (that's why I suspect that some northern leaders, Ojukwu and other SE leaders were cajoled into starting a war with the same north by foreigners then try to drag the SW into the war).

bantudra:


but what you are forgeting is,we are not a couple...we are a nation......!

i always find it funny when igbos come with the argument that is marriage by force??..

the question here is: who bloody married you??...i didnt marry a igbo and i dont want anymore...i broke all my friendships with igbos in the last two weeks...igbo girls i dont even look anymore......just mention anything igbo in my presence and i will ignore you...

If your ancestors said "they were leaving" all they had to do was annex the eastern region... not advance into and attack other regions...
If your ancestors said "they were leaving" there would have never been yorubas, fulanis/hausas and other non igbos fighting for the biafran army.

Try to use logic and critical thinking on history, don't rely on what people tell you...

from the way the war started, your ancestors were manipulated to start a war in order to change the system of government

Ugosample:



And you think those from the north are not hard working?
There are millions of farmers in the north, our silos and good basin is up there

If that route is cut off for just two weeks, we in the south would be in serious trouble.

The thing is that, as the OP said, we are interdependent and we need each other. It will be big folly to believe that the north is completely useless or "parasitic" as some people call it.
If that is the case, how much does the SE contribute to the national coffers that they are collecting money from the proceeds of oil too. Judging by that definition, it means that the SE is parasitic too.
What of the SW states minus Lagos?

The only solution is for us to work out our differences, and know that more Unite us than separate us.

eph123 ngokafor kindly stay away from this one. His thought process is freaking hilarious.


This is the type that will quote you and you keep on regretting that 20 seconds you spent reading the trash he put on your timeline

pchukwudi:
You are lying.

Ojukwu did not declare the civil war. Gowon did. Ojukwu merely declared the independent state of Biafra - and the West was NOT part of the terriotry.

The Biafran army that moved towards Lagos was led by a Yoruba man, and Ojukwu's aim was to liberate the West from nothern domination. He thought you guys would stand up for yourselves in the West the way he was doing in the East. But obviously he over-estimated your folks.

BMCskullHunter:

Dude you're not my brother. If you say you're my brother, upload a video of you saying "buhari is a vegetable" in Igbo 20 times then I'd believe you.

So Ojukwu just took one part of the country out, and that is not declaration of war

Don't you know that anywhere in the world, when this is done, it is declaration of war?

How can you just wake up one morning and just take out one part of the country out of the map Use your common sense na

No president will tolerate that at all.

bantudra:


who cares what you think...not even your igbo men take you igbo women serious....am not even igbo...why the hell should i take a igbo woman serious??...

When Nigeria was created, were the ethnic nations consulted.?

Some of you guys need to have your heads checked again

You don't force unity

donborg:
what if hassan katsina declared northern nigeria an independent country after the 1966 coup, would aguiyi ironsi accept that?

OjukwuWarBird:



Ojukwu will accept that

I can't speak for Ironsi

donborg:
mind you this was before the pogroms of d igbos in northern nigeria. need i remind u also that the basis of ojukwus declaration of biafra was as a result of d killings. so answer my question objectively

DrogoG:
Sharing a country with the barbaric north is a huge mistake. They're the main root of all our problems. And it is heart breaking that Yorubas blindly support them!

So for these reasons, it is only prudent for the Igbos to dump Nigeria. The Nigeria project is totally a failure.

Let Igbos go!!!!

goaldynboy:


So what are you waiting for? Let's divide Nigeria so that all man will go his way!!!
