The Biafran Intention Exposed by Ricovendetta(m): 10:14am On Oct 21, 2015 |
FACTS ABOUT BIAFRA! (1) Biafran agitation has nothing to do with HYDROCARBON/CRUDE OIL deposits in Niger Delta. Imo, Abia, Anambra are currently oil producing states in Nigeria with huge natural gas reserves, not forgetting the enormous untapped coal deposits in Enugu! (2) Biafra is not land-locked. It has numerous access to the sea, including through the River Niger. (3) Biafra entire population is about 35 million people which is greater than the population many advanced countries in Western Europe, including Switzerland, Luxembourg, Belgium, Holland, Austria....etc (4) Biafra does not or in any form signify war, violence, armed struggle or any sort of physical confrontation. BIAFRA IS NOT WAR! It simply means political, economic and socio-cultural freedom from a feudalist State ruled by terrorists and Jihadists. (5) Biafra is not a call for massive exodus to Igbo land. Put differently, every Igbo or Biafran must not live in Biafra land. Those who wish could still maintain their residency wherever they are as well as own properties anywhere in the world, including Lagos, Abuja, Kaduna, Kano, Abeokuta…etc. (6) Independent and sovereign Biafra will never translate to loss or forfeiture of landed properties of her citizens in Lagos, Abuja or anywhere in Nigeria. There are many domestic and international treaties, conventions and laws that protects Assets of non-citizens everywhere in the World, that will apply appropriately. (7) The NEW BIAFRA shall be a coalition of desirous and willing ethnic nationalities in defunct Eastern Nigeria and would never be a forceful annexation of any unwilling ethnic nationality within its current geo-political definition. Ijaws, Ogonis, Ibibio, Anangs, Efiks, Ogojas, and host of other ethnic NATIONALITIES shall possess the privilege to decide whether to tango politically with their Igbo brethren or go their own separate ways.. ( Biafra is a train of peace and liberty. A desire for liberation from institutionalised stumbling blocks like quota system and federal character principles in Nigeria’s quasi-unitary society. It is a movement against internal colonialism, tribal gang-ups, economic marginalisation and political subjugation of Igbo and her minority neighbours. (9) It has nothing to do with hate, bigotry or ethnic chauvinism. Just a desire to live in a healthy society where your tribe, tongue, religion or creed does not define who you are or how far you would go in your career!

[quote author=Ricovendetta post=39197943]FACTS ABOUT BIAFRA! Perhaps you may need to explain why they need the Niger deltans to join at all cost, rubbish!! tell us how many oil fields are there in Biafra land and what they are producing currently * Figures only** Tell us what the SE will contribute to the Biafran alliance, outside Abia state, SE can not generate ordinary electricity and you dare call people parasites? Declare Biafra only in SE Nigeria and see whether 3/4 of Biafra will not be in Perpetual darkness. (2) Biafra is not land-locked. It has numerous Have you seen the ecological report on the River Niger and why it can not be dredged beyond a certain limit? I don't expect a petty trader Biafran to have time to study do I? The Niger river does not open into the Atlantic Ocean or any sea whatsoever directly, it takes a person who is Geographically deficient not to know that it formed tributaries at the brackish water region that gave birth to the delta, such tiny canal arrangement make navigation very difficult if not impossible for bigger vessels. The reason Nnamdi Kanu got to you is because your education is at its ebb. (3) Biafra entire population is about 35 million It does not erode the fact that Biafrans are the most travelled people in the world after the Jews, in reality, the so called 35m people will never inhabit the Biafran landscape at the same time, they don't even have the land mass to accommodate such number even by accident, that doesn't mean much after all, they can exist as the smallest country in the world for all I care, they can as well be surviving on UN grants since their importation business can no longer thrive. Why security pundits worry over their number is not whether they are populous enough to form a quorum but their ability to defend themselves, how many battle tested soldiers can you raise from your fictitious 35m people? Nigeria with over 170m people cannot raise upto 150,000 battle tested soldiers, by the time Biafra is bordered in the North by a belligerent Nigerian state, in the West by the Igala tribes men (who have refused Anambra from producing decent oil by the way), in the South by Cameroon, you will understand that an Israel without the united states or a South Korea without the 7th fleet can not live to celebrate her next independence. You may read up on South Sudan after the break away and how well they could defend themselves, You may equally educate your hollow self on the activities of SPLM, a rebel group holding the South Sudan government hostage. I forgot drop out petty traders dont read. (4) Biafra does not or in any form signify war, Tell that to Nnamdi Kanu who ordered his IPOB minions to lynch one of Africa's most revered Pastors with occultic followership. Tell that to NNamdi kanu who is bragging of stock piling weapons that will make BH seem like a kiddies night out, (didn't he say the zoo will burn? with what exactly? fireworks?) (5) Biafra is not a call for massive exodus to Igbo We care less what Biafra is agitating for and who make it up eventually, if Biafrans deserve self determination then I expect the Niger delta to enjoy such right too, I expect Igbos who care less to enjoy theirs too, haven't you noticed that the Lunatic Nnamdi Kanu is avoiding a referendum like a plague? He was quick to tell uneducated petty traders like you that the first step to self actualization is "Radio Biafra", then turn around to tell you that UN has a charter that supports indigenous people's rights, he carefully skipped the part that the first step to sovereignty is a referendum, Sudan passed theirs and they got their independence, Scotland just failed and they were denied, palestine had theirs (the two state solution viz the camp david accord since the 70's) yet a disgruntled Nnamdi Kanu and his fellow nincompoops think that Biafra is theirs for the asking, give me a break!
This is the latest lie that the Biafra machinists are propagating to embroil successful Igbos who care about their properties, I know you are a petty trader with little education let me do you a favour, every country has the legitimate right to determine her "citizens rights and privileges" Even the United states before Obama barred aliens and non citizens from benefiting from Government funded health care programme. Some countries prohibit foreigners from working. In Nigeria, the Land use act has bestowed on the Nigerian state the right to land ownership solely, the reason you are issued a C of O (certificate of Occupancy) it means that literary you are a tenant of the Government on a 100yrs lease (the lawyers can clear this area better). Now, the Nigerian government can reserve the right to land ownership as a "citizen's right or privilege" the moment the Nigerian senate accents to that or the supreme court rules that, automatically, all C of O's belonging to Biafrans in Nigeria becomes null and void. 1970 Abandoned property quickly comes to mind. Do you expect Nnamdi Kanu to tell you that? well, Ojukwu never told us that Nigeria will cease all our money when he started his own madness. ( 7) The NEW BIAFRA shall be a coalition of desirous Lol, this is 2015 not 1967, this is no longer an era where ojukwu and his secretary will go and decide the fate of Igbos in Aburi alone, this time around it will be negotiated in clear terms, Now, you said that the federating units of Biafra will contribute to the government at the center right? Tell me, what will the SE contribute to Biafra? SE has one of the lowest IGR in Nigeria outside the non viable northern and some SW states, please correct me if I am wrong. SE outside Abia state cannot generate her own electricity never mind that brainless Ngige was the Vice chairman Senate committee on Power, correct me if I am wrong, so what exactly is the SE contributing in the Biafran alliance? Cant you see that the SE is a parasite in your proposed Biafra alliance? I saw the touts who rallied for Biafra in portharcourt, I can authoritatively tell you that the group that plied Aba road axis are Aba drivers and keke touts from Aba evidenced from their Ngwa accent and the registration on their buses, I can also tell you that IPOB members in Portharcourt are mostly SE’s who pollute the Niger delta to create a phantasmagoria that ND is in support of the Biafran struggle. The Rivers state Governor has spoken and I believe he has spoken the Minds of Ikwerre Phalga, I expect the Calabari, Ogoni and Okirika leadership to do the same with time the South east will get the message that they are the real parasites not Hausa-fulani. ( Biafra is a train of peace and liberty. A desire Tell that to your Lunatic director that is snuffing the air waves with hate speeches and violent commands.I know the failed PDP party started this to distract Buhari's administration, news flash, you guys have just asked for a national depopulation therapy!! Nnamdi Kanu may die in incarceration, his followers will turn violent, the Nigerian state will brand them "Terrorists" and the cycle continues. 62 Likes 8 Shares |

Nigeria as a country was built on wrong foundation, even the British, US knew that Nigeria will break up one day. UK has 4 countries in it, eg Wales, England, Scotland and Northern Island, then ask yourself why they cannot be one country like Nigeria, USA has all it states operating as a semi independent country, immigration law in Texas is not the same with California, China has Taiwan, Hong Kong, Tibet and Macau as part of China which are all semi independent, without confederation in Nigeria there will be no peace, Nigeria need to go back to Aburi peace accord, Nigeria will never be a progressive country because Nigeria is made up of irreconcilable entities that cannot align, Nigeria suppose to have 4 countries eg Arewa, Biafra, Midland, Oduduwa under confederation just like UK, China, Netherlands etc, without this Nigeria will never know peace. 11 Likes |

The only problem is to arm them for war This can be overcome by arming gradually the Biafrans after their compulsory military training once they get to 18 Biafra just has to budget 2million light arms every year for every recently turned 18years citizen. 3 Likes |

[size=28pt]Biafra as a seceding country from Nigeria would not be allowed to determine choice states it desire to make up part of Biafra. It did not happen in Ukraine, Eritrea, Sudan, Georgia, Korea, Pakistan n several countless country. Biafra is guaranteed of only the five Igbo dominated States Any other claim is null and void. You can not secede n take what you want n leave what you do not desire to your big brother. A word is enough for Biafrans.
