Nigeria's argument is already a losing argument. Nigeria was not created by God. It was first created by Europeans in Berlin and finalized by a British imperialist. 5 Likes |

The political class seems not to know what to do. What I hear people agitate for is simply fairness in the distribution of resources and the rule of law. All these issues present excellent opportunities for government to address the most important issues befalling this country presently. Nigeria is a multi-ethnic entity hence extreme caution must be taken while addressing issues such as these; from the angle I see things, I would summarize that the various groups are simply expressing fear of one another, and some also feel cheated, hence there are various gaps the government must work on immediately. There are simple actions worth taking at this time that will make sense and restore confidence, they are; 1. Federal government should stop turning their eyes away from unlawful activities of the herds men and make firm pronouncements against them when necessary. This is evident in Benue, Enugu and other killings linked to Fulani herdsmen labelled a mere crises as against the Mambilla massacre branded as genicide by the chief of Army staff; they are all genocide and the wrong body language from such a high military personality should be strongly discouraged. 2. Address every extra judicial killings carried out in form of religious extremism and ensure you prosecute offenders. This is evident in the killings of a Deeper Life pastor's wife in Kano in the name of religious blasphemy in which the police ended up freeing the killers. Government turned their eyes from many other killings of this manner I am yet to see any legitimate religion that supports spilling of blood, even Islam would not support such hence the perpetrators should have been dealt with as murderers instead of hiding under Islam to perpetrate such evil. The Police has repeatedly displayed weakness when it comes to handling sensitive issues of this magnitude which would likely affect the unity of this country as they centre around both tribal and religious lines and hence perpetrators should have been dealt with without compromise. 3.Warn all parties especially Nnamdi Kanu and Arewa youth leaders and give clear boundaries they shouldn't cross; as soon as any of them cross such boundaries, their movement should be restricted, I would suggest house arrest as issues are extremely sensitive right now. For Nnamdi Kanu, as soon as he crosses his lines specified by his bail and other Conditions which should include banning him from all Biafran activities and use of the logo, he should be confined to certain conditions of freedom as he is a serious threat to national security. Any further excesses should get him back to jail. Stop using the law against personal enemies, instead focus on strengthening the law and making it more useful in addressing contemporary issues with the help of necessary arms of government 4. Stop backdoor employment into government agencies such as CBN, etc. as every citizen of this country is an equal stakeholder of the Nigerian project, don't assign consequences of economic hardship to ordinary Nigerians and then allocate opportunities and previleges to friends and associates. It is clear that government's failure to perform its core responsibilities and those mentioned above in the past is the reason why they are afraid of carrying out any disciplinary action against IPOB and Arewa youths, as they are afraid of violence of a magnitude they won't be able to handle. The youths should avoid every activity that would encourage violence and division of Nigeria, according to the Vice President, Wars don't end these days and it is true. Any country that gets into war attracts ISIS, Nigeria is a serious potential and we all know what that means. Let's use our youthfulness, social media and voters card to steer aright. These are my opinions. 4 Likes |

“The demand for a referendum with regards to Biafra is a constitutional impossibility. It is a legal and political impossibility. There is no provision in the constitution of the country or any other law that provides for a part of the country to break away. It is a nonsensical demand"............... - I don't need to even be from the south east that this is the voice of an Idiot. How many "other laws" does he know? 3 Likes 1 Share |

He has just given you sound advice on how to get your referendum but igbo bigots won't see beyond the screens of ethnic hatred. Tell your lawmakers to take the agitation to the National Assembly. They are the only ones who can give you referendum. The sad thing is their Loyalty is not to their constituents. Saraki has already colonised them alongside Ekweremadu. |

You see..this is plain truth from a legal practitioner for any educated and sensible individual to read btw the lines and understand the whole Biafra thing as a political fraud. But yet, illiteracy,bigotry, hatred and above all lack of focus won't allow some few to see this. Ive got lots of Igbo friends in the north ,but they all know if Nig is to divide the Igbos will even lose more hence the agitation by the so called Arewa youths for Igbos to leave. The north has hundreds of things to benefit and just few temporary disadvantages..but still Nnamdi Kanu won't allow miscreants to think straight forward.Continue your hustle and do something productive to your life and that of your families Oh you Igbos! You are only helping a man promote his political agenda while his family prospers in the UK...A word is enough... 3 Likes |

My people are still not getting it, you cannot force things into the constitution through agitation. Even Jonathan that conducted the 2014 confab said it would be passed through the NASS. Why are we making things difficult for ourselves when the approach we have chosen will lead us nowhere. Marginalisation: Highest they appoint igbos to positions, does that solve the problems in SE if those appointed are after their pocket. 1 Like |
