noorseman, u're the very big idiot here. for your information we the igbo's has enough land that will contains us today and next 500 hundreds to one thousand years to come. and if you dont know majority of the present day delta state are 100% percent igbo they speak igbo and bear igbo name's same to river state and akwa ibom. if we igbo brake out of nigeria today we will never be poor, all the eastern region of nigeria has a fertile land for agriculture and enough empty land, enugu has coal, lime stone zinc and others, anambra has crude oils clay salt and others, imo has oils natural gas lead zinc and others abia has crude oil and gas, eboyi cultivate rice in large quantity river has oil delta oil cross river oil, bayelsa oils, and this state above have farm products and timber. so i see no reason why we should be poor.
why cant we have a civilized conversation without calling each other idiots...if you think that the government of nigeria will allow a so called biafran republic claim to the oil wealth of delta state and the niger delta region then you must be dreaming.....listen carefully you might learn something...close to 40 % of the population of lagos state ,kano and kaduna are igbos....close 20 to 30 persent in most other states in nigeria... ..where are you going to put this close to 40 to 50 million new biafran citizens....where is the land...I am happy and optimistic that most of the igbos deep down do not think like this...Most of them want a united nigeria.....However, for few that share this biafran illusion......i say continue..its not against the law in nigeria to be delusional...
