FriendNG: That's not true. It was the first time the sponsor wasn't around. He later presented it and the bill was still turned down. This whole thing will snowball eventually at this rate. “ Now that he is here , we will take it. Nobody will shut out anybody because we don’ t have the right to do that. ” |

Fiscal federalism is the only way out, but yet none of these so called honourables will be honourable enough to do the needful. Every zone wanting a commission so they can be closer to the money jst as NDDC has been doing littering everywhere with abandon projects. Extra load on FG plus extra power not needed. |

FriendNG: You still don't understand the concept of fairness in running a country or institution, why should fairness be based on friendship? No wonder all the government agency jobs go to the unqualified, because they are the ones with "friends in power". I get you now. We really do have a problem in this country with this kind of thinking. Quite unfortunate. 2 Likes |

Calling a spade a spade; the igbos are the least politically evolved of the three major ethnic groups in Nigeria. The north is by far more politically evolved. The north understands that politics is a game of numbers and the majority will always have their way (nine in ten times). The igbos on the other hand either lack this understanding or try to downplay it's significance and would rather play the bravery above all odds cards. While they may be brave and all matching this bravery with wit would have been more productive. In my opinion the bill failed because the igbos have made potential allies sworn enemies and as a result the bill did not get the needed support. Obviously the SE has not gotten the necessary attention it deserves in comparison to some other geopolitical zones, however the practice of seclusion has not helped matters. It is time for the igbos to recognise that their sworn enemies the yorubas are their jokers to get anything out of this country. The yorubas on the other hand also need the igbos just as much. This the north understood hence their ability to oust an incumbent in the last general election. Politics is a game you rob my back I rob yours. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

It's pity many e-rats on this forum do not know or choose to ignore the fact that Niger Delta is not an ethnic group but a geographical location which has now been expanded to comprise of 9 states. 5 from south-south, 3 from South East & 1 from South West. But in a strong bid to separate the Igbos from their brothers, some go to the extent of separating South East from Niger Delta in their ignorance or self delusion. 2 Likes |

DocHMD: Completely indifferent but want you guys to leave. However, it's becoming obvious everyday that you are actually insincere with your agitation but only trying to force the hands of the government for political concessions. The SE of Nigeria holds the highest collection of unprincipled and unfocused humans on the world. 3 Likes |

ProWalker: They've stuck on their Biafran guns in the face of death. You've pendulated severally from 'I hate Biafra' to 'Biafra is a scam' to 'We ewedu people are indifferent' to 'Biafra must be actualized' to 'We must destroy Biafra' within just few months. Other tribes see Ewedu people lack principles, two-faced januses and always approbating and reprobating without shame. You hate biafra but when it actualized, you will remember odudu-ewedu republic. 3 Likes |

FriendNG: when the Yorubas and Igbos where going to school, the hausas where praying in the mosque, so the nation should not move until we help them love to 2017? that is like waiting till eternity, because they will never get ready, unlike they put aside their religious beliefs for once, and embrace Western education. |

I then ask him that which tribe or region is enjoying such in Nigeria and under whose leadership? The guy become deaf and dumb with immediate effect. They want Biafra today; they want another thing from FGN tomorrow. What a confused set of people. |
