The Facts That Lead To The Recent Biafra Uprising: Igbo Youth's Experience by Nobody: 6:39am On Nov 07, 2015 |
I was a simple man, who only wish everything would be alright one-day.. I always listen to news and frown at how much violence therein...we Igbo used to manage the little portion of the loot Nigeria has always given...some of us swallowed lots of insults from ppl whom see Nigeria as their fathers Estate ''its obvious no Igbo man has such powers' From 1970 everything was all talk, rumors, words,views, Individual treatments, personal experience, regional hate, sectional reflexes, my brother it was all talk and all small deeds until Buahri came into power.. despite all the anti-Igbo speeches credited to him by 'ruthless' PDP which most are true, he still went ahead to prove PDP right to Ndigbo with his lopsided appointments which as we speak now their is no Igbo man on the security table of this country now, if anything of security importance is discoursed Igbos will hear it from rumors only. With his appointments he confirmed the years long suspense, rumors, fears, talks, individual ill-treatments of Igbos, he confirmed to Igbo youths all the stories they where told by their fathers and all the campaign propaganda by the PDP machine,. BUHARI INTENTIONALLY DEEP HIS 5 FINGERS INTO THE EYES OF NDIGBO! Note: I don't expect anyone to share my thought on this issues, especially non-igbos...because you may need to be Igbo youth to feel the way I feel at least. 19 Likes 2 Shares |

You're very right bro. And what surprises me is that the president seems to be intentionall quiet on this matter, is like saying "I do what I want those guys should do their worst". This is so unwise by someone who is supposed to be father of all regions in this country. PMB just got to wake on this matter before he uses his own hands and sour the soup. It's very delicate. 8 Likes |

You are right bro. Whoever that is honest knows that the above are the contemporary contributory factors to the recent uprising but because of ethnic sentiments they wouldn't opine such. I perceive the presidency itself wants the Igbo's to part ways with the rest of the country. 7 Likes |

The op,these things were not revealed to you by flesh or blood but by the spirit. You are 100% correct. Still it is not too late,PMB should try and find out what they want.Send the press to them to interview some of them. Then read the newspapers by so doing he will get first class information on why they are agitating. Nigeria is still yet to get a good leader.Let APC and PMB take a clue from Ayo Fayose. 1 Like 1 Share |

Like the appointment saga weren't enough, Buhari's went ahead to make that 5% and 95% speech in US. You do not take a major tribes like the Igbo for granted and expect no reaction. A president is suppose to be the father of all irrespective of tribe, who vote for him and who doesn't. If an Igbo man as the president had done to hausa/fulani what buhari had done to Igbos in this few months, hell would have went loose. 5 Likes |

Rubbish you wrote up there!!!! Igbos of today are as useless as their progenitors. Yes, you guys are nothing but worthless and greedy animals in human skin. Tell me one good thing that has ever come out of your region towards Nigeria as Nation and other Nigerians? The problem of Igbos is quite simple but they have chosen to be a Judge in their own case or their behaviour towards others despite all complaints about their repulsive attitude towards others. As an individual, if a friend calls your attention to certain attitude of yours towards him, would you ignore him and tell him to go to hell or take a look into what he is complaining about as a good friend? Marginalisation. I was 6 years old when i began to read and listen to this marginalisation rhetoric from Igbos. It has always been their bargaining tools when it comes to Federal appointments or federal presence in South East but over the years, other Nigerians have got used to this marginalisation rhetoric and it doesn't make any sense to them anymore. Historically, Igbos have enjoyed federal appointments and presence than any tribe in the south. It amazes me when i heard or read about this Igbos marginalisation. From independence till date, Igbos has benefited most from central government than any tribe in the south. I want you to take a look at the list of Igbos appointees in 1st Republic and 2nd Republic. Igbos formed the first government with hausas/fulanis and this alliance was what made Nnamdi Azumi we The igbo coup came which eventually destroyed our flourishing regional system. Civil war came and gone 2nd Republic was Igbos and hausas/Fulanis government again and that produced Alex Ekwueme. Go and read your history.... 10 Likes |

If I was Buhari, I would do worse. Shebi Igbos said they don't want appointments abi? ?? All they want is Biafra,so what's the point wasting the Government resources and time??Furthermore, the last election has revealed that if 150% of Igbos voted against Buhari,he will still win CONVINCINGLY. So what's the point of appeasing people whose hatred for others is so innated that even if you give them the entire Appointments,they still won't change. Igbos are likened to a billion Dollars at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. ......it's useless!!!!! 4 Likes |

When GEJ had all the ibos he wanted in his government nobody complained now PMB chooses those he wants to work with, una don dey shout. If you are not agitating for Biafra today, you are shouting marginalization tomorrow and PMB is barely up to 6months. Throughout the tenure of GEJ, you ppl didn't deem it fit to ask for Biafra den but when dere is change in power, na una dey shout pass for here. I am very sure if GEJ won d election, dere wont be all dese Biafras thread abound on nl. Maybe you expected him to continue ruling for life. If truly you want Biafra recall all your reps at the house of rep and at the Senate too perhaps we can start taking you serious den. NB: I am not against Biafra nor am I supporting it. Just wants you guys to be civil in ur doings and call for it the appropriate way not you shouting marginalization cos your son lose 5 Likes |

[b]1. Ibos hate Buhari, they showed it clearly and intensely during the campaigns. 2. Ibos hate and rejected the APC, which in conjunction with Buhari, determines appointments to be made. 3. Ibos made it clear to all, that they do not need Buhari's appointments to prosper. This was repeated and emphasized both online and offline. Ohaneze were specific on this. 4. Ibos claimed they are proudly 5%, and do not care about Buhari's presidency since the North that has been producing Presidents 'is not getting any better'. 5. Ibos called and still call Buhari an illiterate old dullard that lacks the capacity to govern, and have made it clear they want nothing to do with his administration. Ibos dipped their 5 fingers into Buhari's eyes during the campaigns but luckily for him they have now been proven to have zero electoral value. 6. Ibos were warned severally to not put all their eggs in one basket, but they shouted down the warning, now your faces are covered in broken eggs and you're looking for Buhari to blame. Going by the above facts and comparing it to your post, the only logical conclusion is that you people are deeply confused. [/b] Zinicc: Bubewilson: IAMTHEHERO: 5 Likes |

What I can see here is some fellows are trying to patronise PMB despite all the insults they threw at him. So the Biafra agitations was about federal appointments afterall, no wonder PDP is so quiet and all the lawmakers from the east on the Biafra matter. Na wa o, but these fellows should know that blackmail cannot be used to cow a leader like PMB, that have seen and fought wars so no bloody civilian can intimidate him What I observed is that since the propaganda of islamization of Nigeria by buhari failed to sail thru, the Biafra mantra looks like a better option, next we will hear now is amnesty for all Biafra touts.

Those are cold hard facts and and I challenge you to dispute any of them. Only a coward denies things he did boldly in the past. You cannot eat your cake and have it. You are reaping the fruits of the hatred you sowed, deal with it. Any complaints just shows hypocrisy, lack of principle and complete confusion about what you desire. Zinicc: 1 Like |
