Mbanda:The most important consideration in the composition of any group is the freewill choice of the proposed . Pakistan was once part of India but with time they exercised their freewill to separate from India. Likewise some states in the US today weren't originally part of the union but later they exercised their freewill to the union. Back in the days, the present Edo and Delta States together with the western parts of the present Bayelsa State were all part of the Western Region but they later exercised their freewill to separate from it. Therefore the fact that some states of the present SS were once together in the SE Region doesn't automatically deny them the freewill and freedom of choice to choose another political group they may now love to belong. They have repeatedly made themselves clear that they are not interested in Biafra and that they were never collectively interested in it. 2 Likes |

Your most viable options are: 1. As a person who can teach Mathematics, Further Mathematics and Physics, you are a very hot cake and even though private schools managements in Nigeria are generally mean, there are still few out there that are reasonable enough to appreciate you for these subjects and never play with your occupational welfare. So look out for another school. But it is important that when you are in the process of searching for another school, you don't present yourself as desperately looking for that job as that is usually the foundation of the disdain and ill treatment you will later get from the management. 2. Find a way to be self employed. Going by my own personal experience, I can boldly say that your residing in Lagos is already an advantage in regard to this because Lagos is practically the only city in Nigeria where your skills sell fast especially if you are excellent in those skills. 2. 3 Likes |

Irony1:Unfortunately, in all your responses you have not been able to address the question you are asked which is simply; what did Ironsi mean with the bolded lines in his broadcast? Until you answer this question very directly, you will remain an Ironsi appoligist shying away from the naked truth. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

MadamVanessa:The same Edo youths against whom you lots sustained for six good years a very rabid campaign of calumny and unprintable name calling like Fulani slaves, fake SS people, cousins of the SW, black sheep of the SS Region, betrayals, etc for the 'crime' of giving Buhari as much as 40% votes in 2015 election?

Mbanda:There is also Nothing like North Central in the com points but you haven't because of that denied the people of the present North Central Region their right to separate existence. So why is it only the SS' absence from the com points that pains you lots so much? 2 Likes |

Mbanda:First and foremost, the coup was plotted, hatched and led not by Nzeogwu but by Ifeajuna - a native of Onitsha in today SE Region. That said, the coup is correctly tagged Igbo coup not because of the tribe of those who plotted or executed it. Only a very dishonest person would pretend not to understand that a coup plot which is a very secrete endeavour by its very nature could only be shared with very trusted and close friends who are most likely to be from one's own ethnic group. However the coup is tagged an Igbo coup because of the pattern of casualty. Pray tell us how many Igbo politicians were killed in comparison to the other ethnic groups' politicians who were killed in large numbers and in the most cruel and gruesome manners. Were all the Igbo politicians in government back then saints and smelling of roses regarding the corruption which the coupists cited as their reason for stricking? 1 Like |

Spandau:Don't mind them. When they commit serious crime against others they call it patriotism or nationalism. Imagine a supposedly educated person describing a blunder as an act of patriotism just because his brother committed it. But the same people villify Gowon for equally creating states to frustrate Ojukwu thus keep Nigeria one. How a people so brazenly use double standards without any shame or conscience pricking them at all remains a puzzle to me. So Ironsi a barely educated soldier knew what patriotism entails more than the seasoned graduates of some of the world's most prestigious universities who drafted the Independence Constitution? 1 Like |

Neckpresser101:The bolded alone clears all doubts of your ignorance of Nigeria political history. Tafawa Balewa was killed on the 15th of January 1966 and Adaka Boro was arrested in March same year yet you unabashedly claim here that Boro's arrest was ordered by a dead Balewa? Please look for comedy or romance section of NL and go and be playing there. Political history section is clearly not meant for you. Aguiyi Ironsi dissolved the regions to keep Nigeria one, you say? Was anyone asking for the break-up of Nigeria before he took over power through the backdoor and imposed himself on Nigeria? If anything he actually divided Nigeria because his decrees were rejected by the majority of Nigerians and his insistence on letting them be led to the agitations for division begining with Araba calls followed by Niger Delta Republic declaration. Please go and read first before coming here. 1 Like |

Locotrader:That Union Homes broke too many hearts and took lives. When I visited home lately I met a woman who told me her husband had been on hospital bed for three months without any progress being made on his treatment due to lack of funds, but that the man recently disclosed to them that he owned some shares which he bought at over a million Naira before 2010 and which if sold would take care of his treatment bill and still have left over. I asked her what company shares. When she mentioned Union Homes, my pity for her was not about how badly the price of Union Homes has plummeted but because of how difficult it would be to even find a buyer for it as of now. 3 Likes |

essentialone: I too had a similar experience some time ago and the lesson I took away from it is that after buying a stock, one must not allow a single day go by without checking up the closing price on the exchange and searching the internet for any latest news about the company. In addition no stock on NSE is worth the kind of long-terming you did for Union Bank (2005 - 2023) i.e 18 solid years. 7 Likes |

currentprice:I share your opinion. The stock market is about the only legitimate means to make over 500% profit on one's capital within 12 months. Ever since understanding the stock market and also how cheap Nigerian stocks are, discussions about the profitability of other businesses hardly interest me. 8 Likes |

Mpeace:Seplat is a very mysterious stock. The only times it appreciates for days consecutively is after it has fallen for days consecutively. Therefore, I only buy Seplat if it falls by a cumulative 50% in four to five days so that in the next four to five days, it is likely to give you 100%. Anything short of that, Seplat is a no-go-area for me. 1 Like 1 Share |

Ozommadu:I guess Oluomo just woke up one day and started threatening Igbos, right? Why wouldn't he threaten you when you stated trying to grab Yorubaland by terming it a no man's land? Wasn't it the same thing you did in 2015 that made Oba Akiolu threaten you with the lagoon? The same offensive and irritating attitude of yours makes Northerners give you quit notice every now and then. Have you ever asked yourself how come Oluomo didn't threaten other non-Yoruba tribes like Urhobo, Bini, Esan, Isoko, Etsako, Owan, Ijaw, Ibibio over whoever they choose to vote for? Why is it only you Igbos that natives of every other region are not comfortable with? It means there is something annoying about you. Even your supposed Ikwere brothers deny you so much that they claim Bini ancestry. Cant you see that you need to check yourselves? 2 Likes 1 Share |

Ozommadu:While I still maintain that you are a patient of the Igbo disease, it smacks of dishonesty on your part to pretend you don't know that Pa Adebanjo is said to have some connection with Igbo through his mum while Obasanjo and the alleged Igbo father are almost identical in appearance unlike Joe Igbokwe who is not known with any Yoruba blood links. Didn't you lots kill your brothers who voted for Atiku or Tinubu in the SE? Hypocrite! 1 Like 1 Share |

Neckpresser101:When you want to explain a people's nemesis by citing a problem, you cite the remotest origin of that problem and it is on that premise you decide who was really at fault. The murder of Isaac Adaka Boro and Ken Saro Wiwa had their foundation in Ironsi's shortsighted greed and Ojukwu's arrogance. If Ironsi had listened to public opinion and therefore never tampered with the Independence Constitution, Isaac Adaka Boro would not have ever started the Niger Delta Struggle in the first instance hence Niger Delta agitation wouldn't have ever been part of Nigeria's history. Secondly, When Isaac Adaka Boro declared Niger Delta Republic, if both Ironsi and Ojukwu had simply said to him, 'Congratulations and wishing you all the best in your new country' rather than use federal military might to force him and his Ijaw folk back into Ngeria, would Isaac Boro and Ken Saro Wiwa have still been citizens of Nigeria to warrant their participation in the Civil war and being killed by either Adekunle or Unknown Biafran soldiers? Anyhow you choose to look at it, Igbos were responsible for all the pains Ijaws and indeed all natives of the six SS states have ed through in this country. 2 Likes |
