Are you sure that you are a child.....or an elder in a child's body?


4. The major driving force of Biafra is the igboland, but the Biafran map includes states like Cross river, Rivers, Delta, Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom state. This makes Biafra a culturally diverse state. I am igbo and i currently live in Akwa Ibom state, and we share no similarity in custom or language. How then can we live together as "one Biafra" when we can't tolerate the cultural diversity of Nigeria.

5. The Igbo tribe would become the majority tribe in Biafra, while the others who constitute the oil producing states hence the 'rich boys' would become minority. "How can the wealth most especially that from oil be distributed, when the majority is in power and the minority have the resource?"
So therefore, a time may come when the "minority" may decide to be free, because no man wants to live in another man's shadow.

6. Igbos are generally regarded as traders, and the lifeblood of their markets like Onitsha Main market and Ariaria international market is found in Lagos seaport where most of the goods come from. In Biafra, Lagos becomes another country hence tax and import/ export levies would increase drastically and logistics would become more difficult.
The other option is to trade via the Calabar Port, Delta Port or Rivers Port at Port Harcourt, and Onne. These ports are only found in the non-igbo states, hence another potential challenge.

7. What happens to Biafrans that have their livelihood rooted deeply in non biafran states? What happens to the igbos that constitute the majority of Alaba international market?
Would naturalization take place or would they liquidate assets and return to Biafra and start afresh?

8. Finally, the question of rulership. Who rules Biafra?
Currently, most Igbo people especially those in Abia and Imo state are dissatisfied with the condition of their states. They complain of bad government, massive looting, poor infrastructures etc, and they are currently ruled by Igbo governors.
If Biafra is formed who would rule then?
I believe it would be the same people that they complain of, and as you can see the cycle of pain and complaints would continue.

Problems are fixed by inward reflections not outward projections and blame shifting.

PLEASE BEAR WITH ME, FOR A CHILD WHO DID NOT SEE THE WAR HAS SPOKEN

These points are the best.

Personally, I support people's right to self determination, inasmuch as I believe in one Nigeria....but when the driving force of that self determination is all about how money is shared, and when the consequences are not sorted out.....

I like your points 4 and 5 in particular. So....we split up...and meet the problems that prompted our splitting up?

IMO.....Nigerians should learn what development is, should agitate for good governance, and then when we are properly developed....we can split as much as we want.

I thought it was ''GEJ till 2019'' before. So this Biafra agitation came up all of a sudden because you guys couldn't come to terms with the fact that GEJ lost?? Na wa o

FYI, Radio Biafra had began operation since 2009. Such sophisticated outfit cannot be built overnight.

See comments that proved that the agitation was strong as ever in 2011: https://www.nairaland.com/597402/northern-army-brigade-established-igboland

2012: https://www.nairaland.com/1094433/igbos-support-against-creation-biafra

It was even under GEJ administration that some Biafra agitators tried to seize a radio station in Enugu. PMB regime has nothing to do with the struggle; it only fueled it the more.

So, stop spreading falsehood and misinformation because you dread to be left alone.

Dis lil protest dat we as nigerians are ignoring, hmmmmmm! Gradually d fire is burning, d govmnt should act fast b4 it bcoms a widespread fire. They should release all those arrested and a proper hearing should b made with biafrans and everythn should b sttled amicably. Buhari tink twice, u cannot fight multiple battles @ d same time.



May God bless nigeria. We are one. I am proudly a yoruba but I love my igbo and hausa brothers. We are one.



There's a sound across the nation
It's a call so clear and strong
It's a call to build our nation
It's a call for everyone
Everyone who is Nigerian
Hear the sound so clear and loud
It's a call for transformation
And the time for change is NOW
Though our tribe and tongue may differ
We are still one and the same
With one hope, one heart, one future
With one cry, one love, one name
We have the power to change Nigeria
We alone can set us free
But it starts with transformation
Yes it starts with you and me
Nigeria, Our Father land
We can build this nation hand in hand
Let 's revive and let 's reform
Let 's rebuild and let 's restore
For we are the transformation
We are stronger than before
We have had our share of battles
We have moan our days of pain
But through it all, we've stayed together
In our hearts, our hopes, we made
We believe we can better
We can reach our destiny
Only when we are transformed
Can we reach our destiny
Nigeria, Our Father land
We can build this nation hand in hand
Let 's revive and let 's reform
Let 's rebuild and let 's restore
For we are the transformation
We are stronger than before.

dont worry. when the war starts, ur father leave ur mother and go to war front. Your mother and sister will be raped by military of both sides. Your relatives will become refugee as a compulsory consequence of war.

THEN WHAT WILL BE YOUR PROFIT. HAUSA MAN BEING PRESIDENT DO NOT PREVENT YOU OR YOUR GOVERNORS TO GIVE YOUR PEOPLE BETTER LIFE.
Igbo politicians are the richest yet no roads and infrastructure in the east. The city of Aba, Aro, Agulere has been dated back to 300 years of existence yet no development sign.

YOU PEOPLE SHOULD FIRST OF ALL FIND SOLUTION TO WHY THOUSANDS OF BUSES LEAVE EAST EVERYDAY AND TEN RETURN. Less than 10% of educated, wealthy igbo population live outside the so called Biafra.

YOU PEOPLE FAILED FOR ABANDONING YOUR CITIES. BIAFRA + ISRAELI FLAG CAN NOT BRING DEVELOPMENT TO ABA OR AGULERE ETC.
If you love your motherland, take revolution to various govt. houses and sack all criminal politicians.


Brotheř don't sound like this to me, I am a changed man now...check my histroy ohh...

Yes I agree with all you point, but maintian that depite your sweetness I need to leave, pls whats wrong with that.....or if you like me so much that you can kill me to keep me...l am just confuse about the whole thing.....I don't even know what I am typing seff.
