Captainswag225: Colonized is an understatement. Wholesale domination is more like it. Truth is, the Eastern minorities also yearned for their own independent republic even before the igbos started clamouring for Biafra. Ironically, it was an igboman in the person of Ironsi who crushed Isaac Adaka Boro's rebellion after he declared an independent ND republic. 4 Likes |

EasternLion: What sort of nonsense is this? yoruba are more interested in biafra and ibo than the other way around. I rarely see the ibos obsessively write about them as they do ibos or for nd. what sort of nonsense is this? the yorubas are the biggest tribalist I've seen. if they hate ibos so much, they can display their blackened hatred without always dragging us into it. nonsense. historically yoruba had never saved niger delta. it wasn't them that fought, it was us. yoruba used propaganda to turn some south south tribes against biafra. it is the exact same thing they are trying to do today. unfortunately, during biafra many of our parents believed the propaganda because of the heavy presence of nigerian army and ojukwu inability to consultant our elders before declaring biafra. if ojukwu discussed with each old eastern tribe's elders prior to declaring Biafra, consultanted with them on their opinions on how to run the new country or even gave some a leadership position as he did with akwa ibom, the yoruba propaganda would have never penetrated. that was the first mistake ojukwu made. many joined the nigerian army to try and liberate ourselves from potential Ibo domination which was told to us by the media. after the war, it became a reality it wasn't the ibos that wanted to dominate the oil in nd, it was the yoruba and north who did. we liberated ourselves from the wrong people, a heavy mistake we are still paying for today. 16 Likes 3 Shares |

atbu1983: The history of every war is always written by the victor, unfortunately, you don't even seem to know the history Just for your edification, I know where you come from, not Edo. Adaka Boro was elected by majority Igbo students Union, not because he was Ijaw, but because he was judged better than his competitor! Enugu was not developed with oil from the Delta, oil has not been discovered at that time. Infact, Ijaws, Edos(like the Oba of Benin went to Enugu for jobs, where he was a permernent secretary), and other minorities trouped to Enugu in search of their daily bread. The coal, palm produce, and agriculture made Enugu thrive, and Port Harcourt was developed by the Eastern Nigerian colonial and then local administrations to export coal from Nigeria. If Ironsi jailed Boro, guess who actually killed him in a cover up Also guess who eventually hanged the other eastern Nigerian traitor called Ken Saro Wiwa 19 Likes 3 Shares |

kotv: Fair write up, but you need to know that "the fact that Ojukwu failed to consult with elders" is another big lie and propaganda spun so many times that even the birds in the air now believe it to be true. My brother, the name 'Biafra' was suggested by an Ijaw chief. Just think about it! When you research more and deeply, you'll find another painful lie cooked up and sold to you guys. Go ask the biggest Igbo hater of the Ijaws-Chief Clark. He will tell you so many personal stories of hardship caused by Igbos since he was born: from not promoting him well in the civil service to snatching his girlfriend---this man was a walking bomb of hatred. Today, he wants to consult with Ekwueme, Mbazulike Amaechi and others. I hope it' s not too late for his sake. 8 Likes 1 Share |

AshiwajuFoward: Your question sir, screams of ignorance. Adaka Boro was a rogue Ijaw liberator sponsored and paid by certain western Nigerian forces, even main stream Ijaws did not believe him at that time. Don't mind the most recent romanticization of his name after Yoruba forces dutifully killed him in action. Ironsi was kind to Boro, his treachery deserved the hangman's noose, just like it would have today. 1 Like |

There were riots for the same reason in 1960 and 1964. These riots were violently quelled using the Army and is one of the reasons Nzeogwu marked some military leaders for death because they were seen to be doing politician's dirty job. Oga Barca please present the link to where anything of that scale happened in the Midwest zone during their agitation for a region, then we can quickly see who is subtly trying to re-write history. So the midwest people on their own organised the plebiscite to decide or the FG supported it for it to be a reality. Why did the FG led by Zik/Balewa agree to the plebiscite but met the Tiv request with soldiers and death? 1 Like |

naijaking1: Smh. You Igbos are so full of stinking shyt. You demonize any one or thing that doesn't fit into your selfish jaundiced agendas. So Boro's agitation is less justified than Biafra's now simply coz an igboman spearheaded the termination of his secessionist ambition. Only SS folks can fall for your poo, we Yorubas can see through your bullshyt any day, that's why you will never succeed in coercing us into your suicide missions. 1 Like |

AshiwajuFoward:My brother, I have been fair and I maintain a position which u believe is fair. The SE and SS have faced a lot, the Igbos have lost a lot-lives and properties. Also add the present structure that we run in this country, plus the marginalisation going on. My brother, people are angry- Very angry. If people out of anger and frustration say they want out because they see no future in Nigeria, the proponents of united Nigeria should be more concerned with getting these people to the table. In this country we always apply "fire-4-fire". Everyone with hardline position. People using the past to create problems for the present and future. I love it when people speak their minds. Whoever wants out should speak up, whoever is dissatisfied should pour out, but we all should be careful. Let us respect the right of everyone-whether Biafra or O'dua republics agitators at the same time let us seek for solution whether by negotiation or by referendum. 8 Likes |
