Nigeria is 65 years.. for 47 years the Northerner have led Nigeria...

Nigeria is 65 years.. for 47 years the Northerner have led Nigeria...

Despite leading Nigeria for 47 years... They left over 80% of the northerners in Abject poverty..

Nigeria didn't start in 2025.... If I had my way I would want power to remain in Southern Nigeria for another 30 years so that these northern leaders are thought how to lead a divers nation like Nigeria to prosperity...

For 8 years Buhari printed and share trillions of naira to these northerners in the name of supporting rice farming, .... Bashir Ahmed... Buhari aide recently admitted that most of this monies were actually stolen...

Hundreds of billions of Naira were spent on feeding northern kids to get them back to school..
This program was basically dormant in the North, but most southerners never raise eyebrows because many of them believe in live and let live..

The average northerner believe in the rent seeking economy... Where monies are distributed without working... The humongous monies distributed by Buhari humanitarian minister in the North can't be quantified...

Many of us are patriots but there is a limit to patriotism,

Any second power leave the North, they become restless as if they are the only ones that can manage power....
If they were that efficient with power we should be having over 90% of northerners living above poverty after 47 years of Northern rule in Nigeria, but what we have is the opposite... Over 90% of them living in poverty..

For years the south clamored for state police,.. the North vehemently rejected it.... But now the North is in ruins, they are now clamoring for state police...

For years the South clamored for resource control... The north vehemently resisted it...
Now its obvious the North have more minerals than the south, instead of mining the minerals and sharing it equitably, their terrorists and bandits have taken over the key mining sites, enjoying the proceeds alone...

Life is live and let live. Many southern patriots had one or two reservation about Buhari leadership but swallowed them because of the greater good, 

Those Northern hardliners must note that  democracy gives room for every region to compete for power, it is their right to contest for every election,  no region can be excluded from competing for power in Nigeria but doing everything to claim the southern presidents are marginalizing their region is dum*b... They tried this formula with Obasanjo and got crushed...

Tell us what you want to do with power, not lieing that you are being marginalized after 47 years in power...
Aso Rock is not meant for only northerners because they always complain of marginalization without power...

Tinubu has never seized the FAAC allocation of any Northern states, rather he kept adding more Gombe gov just recently announced that President Tinubu gave him N60 billion to develop an Agro processing hub, he gave Kaduna gov among others..

Tinubu gave the Northern development commissions more  monies than the south...

Tinubu created the livestock ministry that has been building ranches in the North...

Tinubu is building agro processing hubs in the North outside Gombe..

No Northern leader has invested more to fight the North created terrorism than president Tinubu...

No Northern leader has distributed more free fertilizer to the Northern region for farming than Tinubu,

Tinubu govt has executed more Irrigation dams in the North for dry season farming than in the South..

Tinubu has deployed more resources to build schools to get more out of school kids in the North back to school than in the South... Even when this ought to be the duty of states and local govt 

What this mischievous northern egg heads want is to change that name from Tinubu, to mustapha, change his home of origin from Osun to Yobe, open central bank money printing machine to distribute monies to the million men amajiri that dot their region...

Many of us respect the National cohesion but what we would never take is one region doing everything to blackmail the other in a bid to perpetually keep gaining their rent seeking economy that destroyed Nigeria for 47 years...

Edo State Traditional Leadership Dilemma: A Constitutional Abuse and Historical Distortion____ FEG,

Edo State Traditional Leadership Dilemma: A Constitutional Abuse and Historical Distortion By EgbemaVoice, The Focus Egbema Group has condemned the ongoing manipulation of traditional leadership in Edo State, describing it as a violation of the 1999 Constitution, a distortion of Bendel State history, and a direct threat to unity and peace. According to the Central Coordinator, Comrade Mingo Meshach Sayami Ogumaka, Edo State is a federation of many ethnic nationalities. No monarch of one tribe can be king over all others. To impose one throne is not only unconstitutional, but it also rewrites our history.” The 1999 Constitution (Section 42) forbids discrimination based on ethnicity or community. Traditional rulers are custodians of their own people only. There is no such title as “King of Edo State,” just as there is no “King of Nigeria.” To legislate one ethnic monarch as chairman over other nationalities is illegal and void in law. When the Midwest Region was created in 19...

Breaking Boundaries: Dr. Future Tom Leads the Quest to Unite Egbema Under One State,

BREAKING BOUNDARIES: THE QUEST TO UNITE EGBEMA UNDER ONE STATE – (DR. FUTURE TOM) WHO ARE EGBEMA PEOPLE? The Egbema people are a proud nation located in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. We are riverine, oil-rich, and culturally vibrant. Our communities are known for resilience, industriousness, and a strong sense of identity. For centuries, we lived as one family, bound together by common language, traditions, and ancestry.  But today, the Egbema homeland is split into two: Egbema in Imo State (Ohaji/Egbema Local Government Area with Oguta amongst its surrounding communities). Egbema in Rivers State (in ONELGA axis and with Ndoni and Ogba as its neighboring communities). This split is not of our making. It was imposed by colonial boundary drawing and perpetuated by state creation exercises that ignored the reality of our identity as one people. DISADVANTAGES OF BEING SPLIT BETWEEN TWO STATES, The division of Egbema into two states has left us in a perpetual state of d...

By Dr. U. T. Hart Egbema, a region comprising 16 main urban communities with 32 sub-communities, with 3 main urban communities situated in Rivers State and 13 main urban communities in Imo State, stands as a pivotal contributor to Nigeria's economic framework. As the nation's oil hub, Egbema is endowed with vast oil and gas deposits and uniquely hosts the country's sole mercury findings. Despite these significant contributions to the national economy, the people of Egbema face systemic neglect, brutal oppression, and economic exploitation. _The Plight of Egbema: A Story of Neglect and Oppression_ The challenges confronting the Egbema people are multifaceted and deeply entrenched: - _Extrajudicial Killings and Intimidation_: The proliferation of security agencies, including the Air Force, Navy, Mobile Police, and regular Police, has fostered an environment of fear and terror.
