On why Arewa youths who recently gave the Igbo a quit notice has not been arrested even when their offence is similar to that of the IPOB leader, he said, “Which of the offences is worse? Is it the one that wants a separate state for itself and breaking away from the country or the one that gave the quit notice and says some people should leave a part of the country?” When i read the part stated above,i noticed he is a very stupid idiot....He made mention of freedom of expression and also contradicted himself...A useless miscreant in power 1 Like |

When reminded that even though it is not in the country’s constitution, the issue of referendum has become an international legal instrument for self-determination groups to realise their dream, Obono-obla said “The international law does not take precedence over the Nigerian constitution. If you want to ratify any treaty or international convention, the National Assembly has to approve it. You cannot begin to use the international law to deal with municipal, local and national issues. Let them stop wasting their time. There is nothing like that. The agitators are just wasting their time and that is why I am saying that they are just expressing their right to the freedom of expression.” Where are they hope you are not all blind as the bloody illiterate Kanu lack good education let those among you read that bolded statement above to him. No need anybody telling them a fly that will surely die must enter grave with the dead body for sure. No one is given any damn referendum it won't stand if anyone of them feels he or she is tired of Nigeria biko nwanne pack your bags and leave after all your confusion no know boundary by calling yourself a bloody Jew you may tell the Jew authority to create a state for you in Jerusalem or in Bethlehem nice one but as far this struggle is concern Kanu is not the one to lead in fact as I said yesterday when I met his father I don't even see any seroius resemblance so I'm not even sure that man is his real father because Kanu look albino a lot he is likely an alien in that land that is why he want war so all can be destroy. One useless idiot telling me not to go to my office (I mean my own office I laboured to build) or not to open my business or not to vote, thunder fire you *Ibu Onye* to tell me that shit thunder fire you Kanu. I'm really angry with this goat I swear who the hell is he? He failed and want everybody to fail and loose everything I swear this boy is an alien in Igboland, DNA must be done on him to ascertain where he actually originated from. 1 Like |

well said "you can't use international law to discourse the secession issues" I hope the elites and well educated in southeast can sensitize these people before they turned southeast to northeast I expect igbos to develop igboland first and make it a reference of what they want Biafra to look like? most of African countries is suffering from a good and true leaders enough of this noise, our youths should get back to work and quit constituting nonsense in our social environment 2 Likes |

swintiney:These are wonderful points especially what you said about wars. It will be very difficult for any country that gets into war now to resolve it easily. Many things are involved these days and if Nigeria gets into another civil war it's going to degenerate into so many other fractions. I think we should take a cue from Syria and Libya so we don't suffer the same fate. Sadly many Nigerians think that it's very impossible for another war outbreak but it just starts like this gradually and before you know the whole matter will sky rocket. Few years ago they were burning churches now they are asking a whole ethnic group to leave the north. I don't even know if we need prayers or a miracle. God help us. 1 Like |

ScotsReferendum: There are two immediate road. Both of them clear 1. [/b]Insert a referendum clause in the constitution and then include it as an election issue in 2019.[b] Caveat. I believe you need 2/3 of the state houses of assembly and the national assembly to agree on such inclusion. 2. [/b]Begin a war to exit Nigeria and hope that the UN will intervene to insist on a referendum.[b] Caveat. Many people will die everywhere. There is another road. 3.[/b]Insist that your state governors produce a road map for development and hold them accountable to predetermined milestones.[b] Develop your area and pass laws to make it an economic destination of choice. Oh and there is yet another road 4. [/b]Continue in this vein[b] and watch the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Then get to watch them clink glasses on a non tribal basis. |

I do not find it convenient to keep quiet when lies are being told to millions of people at once. This obla man may be right that agitators are wasting time as the Nigerian constitution did not recognize referendum..... The lies however is in the saying that Biafran agitation started after Buhari won the 2015 election. Come on Obla, so many agitators like Uwazuruike and co have been agitating since Abacha regime. Even KANU started his under Jonathan and insulted the Jonathanian government. It was the wisdom of that government that made kanu unpopular then. It was when Baba came that he together with the media houses made Kanu popular. Some one should help me correct the wrong impression being created by Mr. Obla Where are Oga Seun, Lalasticlala, Mynd44, ZombieHUNTER, Homeboiy et'al? 1 Like |

kocvalour: Yes, you are finished, so is your dream of breaking Nigeria apart. The lawyer is correct in his assessment. IPOB needs only be reminded that no nation fights two civil wars and survives. They should be careful what they wish for. As things stand now, practically all other sections/ethnic groups do not sympathize with them. This is not 1967. If their agitation leads to another war, the consequence will bring great disaster their way. BE WARNED! 1 Like |
