It's all good
ReplyDeleteThey had better make peace before "had i known" go enter.
ReplyDeleteNonsense and ingredient.
ReplyDeleteSo it is okay to wrap oneself in 20yards material, get a camera and issue threats? Just like that? Oh Nigeria!
In a sane society, those who issued this threat would have been long arrested. They don't get it! Nigeria is and always will be an Indisoluble and indivisible entity. The Nothern groups in their stupidity thinks only easterners would be affected by this? Go to slaughter house in Onitsha, Akwa, Uyo, portharcourt, Enugu, etc..the notherners are making clean money! 💰. The number of northerners living in these cities are uncountable. Peace Loving northerners who just want to bring their tomatoes, yam, cows and what have you, to trade and make money. Why bother them with your nonsense.
Just look at the easterners... Sending reps to go lick the feet of idiots all in the name of brokering peace. After all your begging, they are willing to SUSPEND the quit notice. Suspend oo.
We all need each other. Enough of the threats. Sue whosoever makes you uncomfortable. All land belongs to the Feederal Government.
We don't know those people representing the igbos. Who are they?
