These meetings are good but it'll be a waste of time if it's all talk No action.

After the meeting, I expect political leaders of SE to approach Udom and ask him how much it'll take to construct that bloody ibom deep seaport. A plan for all the SE states to contribute financially to see the project is ready by 202.. Im not ashamed to say that We really need the SS ( access to the sea) for economic partnership.

Construct at least 6 lane tolled highway with rail lines that'll connect the whole SE states.

The Igbos can call on their sons and daughters in the diaspora to help with the funding or rather investment. Last year, Nigerians in diaspora sent over $30 billion home. I'm sure atest 30% of that money came from Igbos (It maybe more or less). An Igbo diaspora investment fund can be setup and managed by reputable company for the purpose of this.

If it's against our constitution, Ike Ekweremadu should lead other NASS members from SE zone to lobby to pass new laws that open up Nigeria.

I never want to comment but so happy seeing some people talking sense,
Nnamdi kanu is not stupid for fighting for freedom but the problem is from the Igbo politicians who never cares for their brothers suffering in pain, no job for Igbo graduates, no good proposal for the Igbo people from the FG etc. Thank God they are now coming to their senses,

What do you mean no govt jobs for igbo graduates ?

Is that only synonymous to igbo graduates?

Imo state has the highest number of federal civil servants.

If Igbo, a majority ethnic group with ministers and federal presence, is crying of marginalisation, what would the Urhobos, Ijaws, Binis, Esans, Ibibios, etc, do?

There is a tendency for Igbos to think the world revolves around them. This is why they should have their own Biafra and leave minority ethnic groups from it!

He is right. The igbos have marginalized themselves. No one wants to deal with an erratic, confrontational, aggressive, and undiplomatic group of people. The Igbos are known for these traits and thereby untrustworthy. To them, everything has to be solved by direct confrontation and or a fight. Who would want to deal with people like that? Don't believe me? Go to Ladipo market, Alaba market, or any street where spare parts are sold. The civil war didn't help their case either.



....You are blowing hot air for nothing dude...Igbos must get their fair share in this country or they secede...They are not beginning you or anyone else to like or trust them...Get that into your head.

Thank you for proving my point. You see, i really don't give two phucks what happens to the igbos. Whether they stay with the union or leave. It is better for them to leave because there is no way in hell the North or south will ever let them reach the highest office in Nigeria. The point i am trying to put across is that to leave the union, you must have diplomatic and political skills. The igbos have none. Everything na fight. The truth hurts. Learn from it or move along.

Please do not aggregate the south. I am sure you meant to say the north and the south west. Four scenarios:

Its either the Igbo becomes the president of Nigeria under the present arrangement whether you like it or not.
Restructuring of Nigeria so you can play you own diplomacy and politics the way you always loved it
Tear Nigeria apart and each part go its own way
Nigeria will be thrown into a major conflagration

There is nothing like diplomacy and political gaps to describe the plight of the Igbo in Nigeria today. That was a fake and mischievous script; just like a lion teaching its prey best ways to avoid a lions attack. The plight of the Igbo is built on the wicked connivance of the Yoruba and the Hausa to take charge of Nigeria to the exclusion of all others. It is not tenable and it is in its last days. I can assure you.

The igbo leaders should fight for referendum. I doubt that ekweremadu will do that though.
I keep asking myself this question, how can a country like nigeria not have referendum in its constitution? How can a people of over 180 million keep deceiving themselves about unity that never existed? I am a yoruba man and i say let us split. Even if into at least three countries. It will reduce tribalism and increase productivity.

The Hausa/Fulani wrote the constitution and they were wise enough not to include "Referendum" knowing fully well that the agitation for Biafra will never die...

Except the constitution is reviewed or UN intervenes then there will never be a Referendum in Nigeria...

Exactly. It is up to Nigeria to maintain its unity, not the present thought that Nigerians should beg to be part of Nigeria. If an association cannot support the aspirations of all its members then splits are inevitable be it associations of sports, business, leisure, professionalism or politics.

I mean the PDP could not listen and address the concerns and yearnings of all its members and so a group formed the nPDP later joining the APC. It is so ironic that those who hailed that move fault the aspirations of others for self determination. What is the difference.

The I BEFORE OTHERS are now crying fire where there is non and when the head is off it will be too late to cry.
They should go back to history and recollect what they did to destabilise the forward moving old Western Region under Pa Obafemi Awolowo , recollect "Daily Times" caption "DON'T GO TO THE WEST Mich. Okpara former governor of the Eastern Region warned his reply then was I WILL GO TO THE WEST this was during the Action Group party crisis of 1962. the resultant effect was the declaration of the state of emergency which led to the restriction of Action Group party leaders led by Awolowo from one dungeon to the other that led to the imprisonment of Obafemi Awolowo for 10 years in 1963 which eventually led to the "Operation Wetie" of 1965 and subsequent I BEFORE OTHERS coup of January 15 1966.
So , never will any South Westerner that knows what the
I BEFORE OTHERS has caused Yoruba Nation will ever think of having anything to do with the agitation for BIA_FRAUD.

at last reasonable people are coming to deliberate on issues. i am igbo but i will continue to say that the igbos are not ready for a sovereignty. The group should plz concentrate on fair treatment of the igbos, referendum, and restructuring of the south eastern part of the country. Though an independence would have been a wonderful idea but trust me, we igbos are not jst ready for it!
