0merta:Not to twist the word but you forgot to mention that Aguyi Ironsi later died from the Eastern region. I acknowledged the destruction of lives and properties other tribes encounter but hey!!!... Igbo's catch hell and had it worst in that war. Over 2 million is no joke. |

aguiyid2nd: That is nigeria for you... Always afraid of her dark past. No matter how hard they try, we the Igbos of today are fully aware of what transpired in biafra between 1967 to 1970.It is forbidden to kill, therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets. That's Nigeria civil war where the culprits are suppose to rot in jail for genocide but they walk freely among us. That's insanity. |

Nigerians should not b scared of their dark past, the authorities are the once making It look as if they are trying 2 hide something by this senseless baning of any film relating 2 d biafra war. Mayb they should also ban d boko haram movies |

akitijackson: It was banned at first cos of the sex scenes Nope. It was banned due to the depictions of the Nigerian Civil War. "Some fear the film, which is seen as sympathetic to the Biafran separatist cause, could stoke up ethnic tensions" http://bbc.com/news/world-africa-27162545 |

coolzeal: "The movie, which had been previously banned over partially taking place during the Biafran War". The war existed, it's our history and over 2 million Igbo's lost their lives. i wonder why they have not probe the culprits of that war/genocide.awolowo must be tried in the Hague. Obasanjo and go won can only be tried by God almighty. Evil war criminals. |

You can't hide nor suppress history! By banning that movie, they unknowingly gave it a bigger publicity and people are now salivating to catch a glimpse of the movie! Well done Adichie! |

youngRx: but seriously.....i dont tink releasing the movie is such a good idea fa. reading the violence in the novel alone made me hv an entirely different impression about the north....some sort of hatred so to say....den i stoped reading d book.Some things can never be swept under the carpet. Besides you are naive to think that people do not know what happened during the war, heck, the people who fought in the war are still alive and the memories are evergreen. SEasterners value human life and will not go on a killing spree because of a movie that reiterates what they have always known. The movie tells history as it is and should be accepted in good fate to help bring some form of closure. |

Finally, Naija censor's board has to follow suit since the movie has been globally known. |

No respect even to the dead in Nigeria. Thats why some brainless heads in Nigeria will compare Boko Haram to Biafra war. |
