I swear you are not knowledgeable on military matter

Do you know what is called kill radius

What is the missile kill radius

Have you heard of anti-rockets shells missiles


Guy stop dreaming

If it is so easy


Germany would have wiped out london switzerland stanlingrad etc during WW2


Most of Nigerians think an armada of air raid will subdue Igbos

You guys are still daft even after seeing that it never broke a poor armed Biafra in the last war and won't scratch a well armed Biafra in the future.


All we need to do is to arm everyone with sophiscated arms and use our population and technology to our advantage.

IBO POPULATION IS MEAGRE COMPARED TO YORUBA AND HAUSA. WHICH TECHNOLOGY?

TabletMan: OK.

But please remember Ogwuche the Nyanya suicide bomber and where he is from, and also remember many more like him.

You can believe whatever u want to believe.

Ogwuche the nyanya bomber is an Idoma muslim so I won't condemn Idoma Christians for the sin of their muslim son the way I won't want somebody to condemn me for the sin of one Igbo muslim.

You are free not to believe me but when Biafra comes we shall see the true Biafrans emerge and implement the true Biafran dream

I hope you will discharge your duties well when I deploy you to keep the war far from home at Southern Kaduna.

Thanks and remain bless comrade

Whoever authored this analysis need to revise it.

Update:
Kogi is hellbent on claiming full ownership of Aguleri Otu from Anambra State and dispute over oil treasures could escalate into war.

Dynamics:
The belief that middlebelt shares sentiment with SE needs to be revised given the political attributes of petrodollar and geo-location.

is it not surprising that the ibo small population with very few ammunition inflcted a larger casualty on the much populated yoruba /huasa army even with Soviet and great britain backing. what really has the yorubas been able to chieve with their high population as the number of gradutes that igbos produce is more than the sum of yoruba and hausa/fulani graduates.

thirdly the igbos with their little population has given Nigeria 3 olympic gold medals 2 CAF cups , while yoruba hausa high population at best has not benefitted Nigerian in sports particularly hausa population

The few yoruba , hausa were added to make the team have a national appeal and avoid nepotism of nigerian factor in the federal ministry or sports headed by a northerner or presidency headed by yoruba from saboatging it . if the cup was won by the inclusion of yoruba players how come yorubas have never competed in the CAF club talk less of winning it , how come that out of huge yoruba population not even an olympic gold .

The causalties that Benjamin Adekunle's 3MCDO was inflicted on during the opretion OAU which he embarked on with 35,000 soldiers and only 300 escaped alive to tell the story is a typical example.

The second casualty that actually questioned Nigeria's capabilty of winning the war in which a 100 column of vehicle carrying a whole division of the Nigerian army led by General Murtala Mohammed were routed by a relatively unknow Biafran Major Jonathan Uchendu that resulted in one of the major upsets of the war and that caused Murtala Mohammed to embark on a self imposed exhile till the war ended was another example.

But the causlaties that Nigeria inflicted on Biafra was majorly bombing of hospitals, markets ,killing of uarmed civilians in Asaba , Onitsha the sabotage of farm lands resulting in hunger and malnourishment of Biafra women and children

People overestimate the economic viability of Yorubaland. If the leave Nigeria, within two years one or more rival deep sea ports to Lagos can built in the Niger Delta, so on what will the economic viability of Oduduwa Republic rest on if Lagos has a serious competitor.

Throughout the June 12 struggle, Yorubas realized this - there's nothing you can build in Lagos that you cannot build in Calabar or Ibaka or on many locations on the Niger Delta coast, so they'd have a lot to lose if not part of Nigeria.

Lagos is prosperous because it is an "entreport" city to the "interior" (the interior being the rest of Nigeria). Take away Nigeria from Lagos, Lagos fails.

Lagos , Lagos Lagos
Simpleton,
OGUN ,ondo , osun,oyo
Tourism ,petroleum , solid minerals ,remmitance,manufacturing,agriculture,solid minerals ,services etc are what make a balanced economy .
Not crude oil.
Even the forex aspect will be taken care of by remmitance,exports and west african regional trade.

By OLA AJAYI, IBADAN
HUNDREDS of angry military pensioners in the country Monday besieged the Oyo State Secretariat saying they regretted fighting against Biafran soldiers to ensure the unity of the country.
They said if they had known that the country would repay them in this wicked manner, they would have fought for the survival and sovereignty of Biafra.
The retired soldiers who spoke through their Chairman, Mr. Mr. Gabriel Oiakhena said, “we have been pushed to the wall. The families of over 500,000 soldiers who lost their lives in Biafra are suffering
We who are alive are just living as destitute. Many of us have died because they did not have money to treat and fend for themselves. Senator David Mark has spent about twelve years and he has done nothing for us.
When the militants were pushed to the wall, they took up arms and fought with the last pint of their blood”.
Also speaking on the issue, another ex-soldier, Mr. Olatunji Johnson said they came to draw the attention of Federal Government to their 53 per cent unpaid arrears and other allowances.
To prevent breakdown of law and order, all gates leading to the secretariat complex were shut against the angry pensioners.
Armoured Personnel Carrier, five police Hilux Vans and scores of armed policemen were stationed at the entrance of the secretariat.
Displaying the injuries they sustained in the Biafran War and many placards condemning the discouraging attitude of the government, they said it was unfortunate that they were being treated in this inhuman manner after fighting for the unity of the country.
He said their mission to the office of Governor Abiola Ajimobi was to present a letter on their plight to him for onward delivery to President Goddluck Jonathan.
He said, “we will not allow the government to rest until our money and other entitlements are paid. Many of us are still being paid N10,000 as monthly pension while they are wasting millions over there. It is not fair”.

A fresh revelation on how a tactical blunder by former President Olusegun Obasanjo allegedly cost Nigeria 1,000 troops in one hour during the 1967-1970 Civil War has emerged

Reporting on the incident this morning, the Abuja-based Blueprint newspaper said:

One of the commanders who saw action on the frontline, Brig-Gen. Alabi Isama (rtd), recalled the tragic incident at the weekend during a radio interview on Splash 105.5 FM radio, monitored in Lagos.

Isama, who was Chief of Staff to Brig-Gen Benjamin Adekunle, the commander of the 3rd Marine Commando during the war, said Obasanjo was appointed by the then Head of State, General Yakubu Gowon, to take over from Adekunle after the latter started suffering some reversals.

He said: “Gowon sought the opinion of some of us when he wanted a replacement for Adekunle. Gowon said he didn’t want to replace Adekunle with another Hausa officer so that the war won’t look like one between the Hausa and the Igbo. I remember, it was Akinrinade who mentioned Obasanjo. I didn’t know him until then.”

The 72-year-old war veteran, whose account of the 30-month civil war would soon hit the bookshops, said though Obasanjo never had any command experience before he was asked to take over the division, other commanders gave him the benefit of doubt.

“Obasanjo crafted the script of the Ihiala operations. We went into that operation without any intelligence because Obasanjo, on assumption as head of the division, disbanded the women who we were using to gather intelligence about enemies’ movement and location. That outing was a disaster as we lost 1,000 troops in just one hour.

“From that point the commanders realised that Adekunle was a better strategist and ignored Obasanjo’s battle plans in subsequent operations.”

Isaba also revealed that even though Obasanjo received the instrument of surrender from Col Philip Effiong, he did not play any role in ending the war.

Instead, he gave the credit of crushing the secessionist bid to I.D. Bissala, Alani Akinrinade and IBM Haruna, who launched the final offensive without an input from Obasanjo
He said it was Akinrinade that the rebels surrendered to


“Obasanjo was far away from action. He was only invited by Akinrinade for the surrender ceremony and he even missed his way to the venue.”

Isama said Obasanjo was given that honour by Akinrinade because he was the boss. The civil war veteran also revealed that Obasanjo was scared of the frontlines. “He was forced to go to the front. He was always hiding under the cover that he was an engineer

but then, I remember, many brilliant engineers were in the front, building bridges and playing other operational roles. But Obasanjo was always avoiding the frontlines.”

Awolowo used sense in coining that term to deceive Muritala.
Once Muritala see the name "victor" he was happy since he did not go to school, he did not know the meaning of the dangling gerund in the compoud, complex sentence: no victor, no vanquised.
