SW Needs Regionalism To Develop Properly (1016 Views)
(1) Go Down)

There’s nothing good out of unitary government for SW. the country has already stripped SW of its progress in the name of “one Nigeria”

Zooposki:We have always called for restructuring it’s the east that begs for unity when we declare our intentions. Always begging Yoruba people. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Zooposki: Of course, we do know that the North has never been our friends. We know and still our history such as how we spent the best of the 1800s fighting off these barbarians from the Sahel. As for your suggestion about west collaborating with you igbos? Hell NO! We don't share the same vision. In fact, our ideologies are on parallel planes. All the igbos want is, who to dominate in every sense of the word and exploit (just like their former Colonial master) whilst we yorubas just want to develop at our own pace and do owambes. Op, we don't need Regionalism to develop ourselves. We had Regionalism before but some "smart Alecs" decided unilaterally, that Regionalism is not good for us rather we all need to be united to develop and be more prosperous. Incidentally, it was only when they were in power at the center. Once kicked out of power, they suddenly ed "Confederacy". Who wants to stay with such duplicitous folks in the same union? 6 Likes |

To be very honest, I don't consider North as enemies of Yorubaland cos if you check well, they are also victims and have tried several times to break away from Nigeria especially after the first bloody Igbo coup of 15th January, 1966 that wiped off so many prominent Northerners from the face of the earth. The real culprits behind the misfortunes in Nigeria are Ironsi, Azikiwe and their kins who didn't want regional government but unitary government so they can be in control of all region's resources in Nigeria at the centre.. The Northerners only took the structure the SEners created, reason we are where we are today. Even up till this 2024, they'll continue to make efforts to ensure we don't achieve restructuring with the hope that they'll one day grab the presidency and dominate all other Nigerians. While others are thinking of ways to move forward, all they want is stagnation where they'll be calling the shots over everyone. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

The kind of restructuring you desire you will not get, oduduwa you will still not get, argue for state police and resource control. The 36 states and capital is sacrosanct.

flokii:It is not a must we grab the presidency but if it is the Will of God it shall happen, insha allah. The presidential system is more stable. If you don’t like it, I don’t know what to say but lobby the senate and house of rep to use 2/3 majority to implement secession clause or something. For now, the East is in charge of the senate. By the East I mean south East south south |
Zooposki(f): 8:53pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
AlexBells: Please leave South South out of your talk. We want regionalism and restructuring aka resource control etc. |
AlexBells(m): 8:57pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
Zooposki:As the King Jaja of Opobo that you are Na. See this one lol. Igbos are majority in south south. Do you know how many local governments Igbos ocupy in south south, tell me any other tribe that has two state capital in south south lol |
Zooposki(f): 8:58pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
AlexBells:And what kind of restructuring are they looking for? |
flokii: 8:58pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
AlexBells: How people fail to see that you folks from SE are the real problems with Nigeria is what I don't understand. You're neither here nor there.. always looking for crisis to make profit from. Whether you like it or not, we'll change the structure to a more efficient and sustainable one away from the one Azikiwe and Ironsi envisaged to keep all Nigerians under bondage. 1 Like |

Zooposki:They want back to regional government where they could have regional government like in the first republic. Let the figure out themselves in Yorubaland and stop disturbing Nigeria. The Federal Republic of Nigeria shall remain unitary unless they want disintegration |
Zooposki(f): 9:01pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
AlexBells: And how is wanting regional government bad? |
AlexBells(m): 9:01pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
flokii:Go and try Na, if you want to leave, leave if you are staying, you stay in the of the federal republic. You won’t be allowed to run a country inside a country, recall your senators and leave no one will fight to stop you that’s a guarantee but if you want to stay, you stay peacefully |
AlexBells(m): 9:04pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
Zooposki:It is bad, Becuase it is unstable, it caused the first war, regional players held everyone to ransoms in the first republic. Forget what eldarado they are painting it today, it wasn’t all that efficient. The wild Wild West was another issue, anti other region sentiments was high, it could have ended worse |
Zooposki(f): 9:05pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
AlexBells: A lot of other African countries operate regionalism and they are thriving. |

NaijaPrince18:Walahi Imagine all the great things that we are exporting to the outside world. Now na the whole Nigeria get Nollywood and Afrobeat |
AlexBells(m): 9:10pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
Zooposki:Are those African countries same as Nigeria? Nigeria stands on a tripod with three major ambitious tribe. Regional government doesn’t Favour minorities. More power to these three major tribes would easily threaten the country. Imagine the East facing the whole Nigeria. What do you think would have happened if the East was led by an astute military commander. It can’t work. Nigeria needed to be broken up into smaller regions and that’s how we git to this 36 states and capital. Every tribe should figure out themselves and stop disturbing Nigerians no one owe any tribe regional government. They should work with their traditional government |

flokii:So SE is the reason you have failed to restructure the country after producing a Head of State, 2 Presidents and a VP? Commissioning of 24/7 electricity really pained you people. We love the tears. Keep it flowing 😂😂😂 1 Like |

alanto:Some of you guys are tribalistic ingrates. When you were doing Yorubawood until you jioned Nollywood, what did you export. You seem to forget that all the vibes you are getting is the Nigerian effect. Breakup let’s see how your so called export will thrive. |

AlexBells:Wanem? You know want Biafra again? Speak about something special about Biafra. Dont hate on the Yorubas 1 Like |
AlexBells(m): 9:30pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
alanto:I don’t believe in Biafra with minorities. Instead of such Biafra let Nigeria continue. I’m not hating on Yorubas rather it is a sound warning. If they want to stay they stay, if they want to leave they should make it real same is applicable to Biafrans and Arewans. This the federal republic of Nigeria. Every year the same story since 1960. Awo said Zik rejected the secession clause, Igbos left in 67, why didn’t they leave or return to regional government. Anyone who does anyhow may see anyhow this time around |
alanto: 9:35pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
AlexBells:What's Biafra with minority? There are 5 Biafran states of Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo. Which on is the minority? |
AlexBells(m): 9:38pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
alanto:I want AlaIgbo, some part of the south East will not be part of any country of Igbos post Nigeria and some of our people In south south and north central will stay with us. There are Igala people in some part of south East those ones will their kins while our people in other geopolitical zone will us that’s if the regrettable happens but for now we owns the Federal republic and no one goes nowhere |

alanto:You didn’t check my history? I’m a Zikist and while I regret Nzeogwus coups I idolize him for some of his values like honor and courage. Now this should bring the end of discussion. I’m Igbo first and Nigerian second. Some of my brothers and sisters want Biafra. I respect Thier desire so far as they respect the lines. They are smart enough and so far never crossed it, they are asking for referendum that’s mature and sensible |
alanto: 9:59pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
AlexBells:And if I say I don't get what you are driving at? |
AlexBells(m): 9:59pm On Feb 26, 2024 |
alanto:But Aba got 247 power before Lagos lol |
