"History has shown that in almost every situation where a group of people or a demographic is being oppressed, it’s usually because the oppressors are threatened by the potential of the oppressed to be great" - Genevieve Nnaji

Afam4eva:

When did Genevieve say this one?

OreMI22:


The first step to Igbo regaining their freedom in Nigeria is to understand the nature of the enemy's tactics and their goals. If you try and act in the opposite direction of their goals, then their oppression will fail eventually.

1. What they enemies of Ndigbo plotted was to abandon Igboland infrastructurally so that Igbos will be forced to abandon their own land.

2. Use and exploit Igbo energies and talent to develop their own villages and states, claiming it is in the national interest of Ndigbo to invest there, while telling Igbos to remember they are "Foreigners" in these places, therefore should not seek electoral positions or citizenship no matter their contribution to its development.

3. Finally at the right time with the right spark of tension, suddenly expel Igbos from all their locations back to their abandoned SE region and claim all Igbo properties outside the SE as "abandoned"


The oppression of Ndigbo in Nigeria is geared primarily to acheive these three core elements of the enemy's plan.

Therefore, Igbo must reject the idea that their homeland isn't good for investment and put some if not most of your investment in your own state.

When you cannot put the investment in tour state, invest in Ghana, Angola, Namibia,Senegal, Cote d'Ivoire. Sierra Leone, Liberia, Burkina Faso, Mali, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Equatorial Guinea, DRC etc Or outside Africa. It is better to invest in these countries and become a citizen there than to invest in hostile places in Nigeria and lose everything to a "Quit-Notice" or riots after many years of laboring to build your life there.

Let those that have ears LISTEN.
Those that are too daft to see what is happening in Nigeria, should continue living in Kano or Funtua. In time, they will get it.

The enemy dont want anything in the East.

They wanted to use Nnamdi Kanu as excuse to level the place.

The few, flyover, houses, business and bridges is annoying dem.

hammer666:


Where is dat in the pictures?

OreMI22:


EXACTLY!

The little progress they have seen has annoyed them immensely as "So we didn't stop these useless Igbos afterall?"

They are not relenting though. That is why nobody should be under any illusion until Nigeria is either restructured or Igbos are allowed to live decently in their own country - Biafra.

Those that like real-estate should consider these types of apartment complexes used in Ethiopia like below. It is how places with high population density and small landmass provide decent houses for the masses. Since electricity is scarce in Nigeria, perhaps limiting to 5 storey floors will be appropriate adaptation for our clime.

The saddest part of the Igbo renaissance is that most of our people simply swallowed the enemy's bait Hook-line-and-sinker with no questions asked. In their minds, Kano or Lagos is their hometown. i thank God for the Governors in these places that continuously remind them about this folly.

OreMI22:


I am of the opinion that private entrepreneurs interested in real estate should invest in decent multistorey buildings than building just duplexes or bungalows. I know duplexes look better, but not everyone can afford them and the space of land to accommodate 1,000 families in duplexes will accommodate 5,000 families if you built multi-storey buildings.

But, the essential amenities as water, parking and decent environment should also be provided for the multi-storey residential areas.

AnambraDota:
Onitsha have a long way to go in having a decent environment. Awada, Nkpor and Woliwo look like Agadez and Timbuktu.

The interchange at Upper Iweka need to be massively planted with trees because of human activities in that particular area. Even the way people cross the high way in Anambra State shows slot need to be done

Please don't tell me all those nice pics of well laid out high-end high-rise apartments are all in Ethiopia....the same Ethiopia that hunger wanted to finish barely three decades ago!

It's suddenly dawned on me just how far we have to go to make our cities truly world-class!

Entrance into Enugu mall, along Ekulu avenue in Enugu......

Don't mind that guy. He has jumped from flyovers and bridges to types of interchanges instead of him to just accept that Enugu does not have both a flyover or any type of interchange. He asked me to show him the picture of a flyover and I decided to show him the one in Anambra which he can go and see any time and also showed him a cloverleaf interchange so he could see the difference between an interchange and a flyover but, he decided to ignore the focus of the discussion and started talking about types of interchanges.

You lie.
Enugu has a flyover at Port Harcourt street, beside Jehovah Witness Kingdom Hall , off Osadebe street.
The flyover is atop a rail line. What's your problem?

arinzeejikonye:





You're wrong,

Here is a trumpet interchange in enugu

nnamdijonathan:


To me, planting trees in those places you mentioned is not the main problem, the main problem is nonavailability of space to plant the trees. If you check out the streets in those areas in mentioned, you will discover that fences are too close to the gutters thereby limiting the available space to plant trees, most main road medians are covered with cement not open soil and no street has a median were trees can be planted. Fences have to be pulled down for trees to be planted and the government will step on many toes if it decides to pull down people's fences.

Cjrane2:
Bridges / road bridges inside the city.
(No need to post satellite images)

1. Trans Ekulu bridge
2. Zik Avenue Bridge
3. Enugu international trade fair complex bridge
4. Nza road bridge New haven
5. Abakpa bridge
6.Iva Valley bridge
7. Emene bridge (Old abakaliki road bridge)
8. Many more colonial era bridges still exist inside the city.

AnambraDota:


Some of these handles arguing about Enugu not having flyovers could be one individual debating himself with different handles.

I don't think a reasonable human being will write on a public forum without intending being mischievous that Enugu doesn't have flyovers, common who beget there miscreants

Not only thieves, there should be honor also among miscreants

arinzeejikonye:

@ dee cjrane and dee Anambradota, thanks a lot, you know we got to keep it real, else the misinformation could be seen as truism when undisputed.

One thing is sure, the tides are gonna change expediently,, if our leaders can keep their ears to the ground and feel the heart beat of the downtrodden, they would appreciate the depth of the vacuums and stretch of the gaps and be pragmatic about providing solution.

Yours truly have crisscrossed the length and breadth of our territorial configuration and almost same narrative i
We all want good paying jobs, Security, better access to infrastructure, etc.
