ReplyDeleteU are dreaming of what can't possible,is UK Nigerian,how many states are in niger delta?
ReplyDeleteComments like this actually reveal people's level of education and exposure. In the Caribbean Islands (West Indies), some are as small as one LGA in Nigeria. How big is Guinea? How big is Brunei? Understand that contributing comments is not an obligation, sir. Hold your foul breath!
Delete...the UK are seriously rethinking their position and there could be another referendum if their parliament debates on it......stop clamouring for the break up of the country It WiLL NEVER HAPPEN!!!
ReplyDeleteNigeria needs referendum much more than the UK. UK doesn't treat her people, her land and her resources the way Nigeria does. Let the people decide!
ReplyDeleteyeah
ReplyDeleteThe forceful marriage by d British in 1914 is't working to the interest of all nigerian collectively let the people decide and in a country like nigeria that has been divided with what called the twins devil Which are religion and ethnicity therefore, I strongly belief d solution is referendum. May God help us.

Those of u saying the Niger Delta is too small to form a country need to think again. Otherwise it means u lack good brains. The Niger Delta is bigger than the UK in terms of land mass. Bigger than many Europian countries in terms of population and resources. We need to go our different way. Nigeria is not working and with the way things stand, Nigeria will never work.
ReplyDeleteAre you seeing what I am 'saw'?. How can the 'north' be this large in terms of landmass (albeit the most impoverished) yet we claim that all 'Nigerians' are treated 'fairly'.
ReplyDelete...wat separation are we talking about,..i believe we av been separated even b4 d amalgamation...we av never been one...so wat we need now is the official recognition of our individual countries by our warden(nigeria)who has kept us in one room as prisoners#even d country map don separate seff...lol!
