FREEDOM4BIAFRA:


Have you read the reports of their elders? How they deny us and call us miscreants? Well, we hold nothing against anyone.

Biafra's negotiations will be true from the mind, no one comes to the table with selfish agenda, we will talk of what is best for everyone, all cards on the table.

And for the SS, we would even encourage them and assist them if they want their own republic, it would be easier to work with them than to work and be allies with Nigeria.

No one should just pop-up and make demands for joining us, we aren't that desperate. Such demands are like blackmails.

Look, you must realise that we don't need all the SS. We have cases here we Edo people have been shouting 'We SS, leave us alone' when we have told them many times that we don't and will never need them.

The truth is that we should concentrate and negotiate with the Efik/Ibibio and forget about all other parts of 'SS' apart from our lands in Delta and Rivers which we will not cede to anybody under any guise.

I say it again, let us concentrate on the Efik/Ibibio.

EternalTruths:



You are not more Biafran than us


Listen


In life, you must make some sacrifices to achieve greatness


One mistake we won't repeat in Biafra is to create another Zoo where people feel oppressed.



So two things will bind Biafra


1) Resource Control


2) Respect for minority views by allowing them have their way at times eg placing the capital in their region , respecting their land and culture cool

The kind of sacrifice that made Nigeria lose bakassi?
Bro, Resource control is key, capital will be negotiated and not awarded to please anyone
There will be no minorities or majorities, everyone will be together, whatever name is chosen.
There will be no tribal lords who will continue to made 'our' demands, therefore, making the people feel different from the rest.

But all these will happen, when these people decide to come together, not to make them come together. It is blackmail.

He is yet to understand the Biafra we are fight for.


With time he will thank you. cool

Honestly peeps like him have to understand that negotiations are very key here.

Everything must not be about chest-beating and braggadocio; this has been the bane of the Igbo Man even in Nigerian politics.

The Efik/Ibibio are the most reliable guys we can work with in the Niger Delta.

We love them already, but we cannot force the efik/ibibio to love us. It's solely their decision.

We all know that is impossible in Nigeria and there is so much injustice, is that why you guys have been shouting Biafra if I may ask?

What is wrong in have Akwa Ibom as a capital?

Was it not Philip Effiong that stood for the Biafra when Ojukwu fled to Ivory Coast?


They shud come forward and participate fully in the struggle. U can't choose to stay aloof, and with covert preset conditions. It doesnt work that way. I'm not against biafras capital sited in akwa ibom or cross river.

The Efik/Ibibio love us, I can assure you that. They are more reliable and trustworthy than the treacherous ijaws.

One again I have to remind you that the second in command in Biafra was Philip Efiong.

This man stood for Biafra to the last, he was the one that risked his life to face the advancing Nigerian army when our own Ojukwu was already in Abidjan.

Do you get it now?

Yes, let them make their demands, that is even what we want. If they say they want 95% control of their resources we will let them have it.

The Igbo man that I am do not depend on oil to survive.

We must let this people know that we love them and ready to make concessions, that is how big guys roll.

Cool down


Don't let the fake minority on NL deceive you.


The grand plan of Biafra supercedes Igboland.


If you understand the mindset of Ojukwu and KANU, you will realise that they want to build a black empire capable of lifting Africa from backwardness.


The difference between that empire and other empires is that she will be built on mutual respect for minority views.


In Biafra, minority views will be allowed to scale through to preserve peace and block any means an enemy can use to divide and conquer us.


THAT'S WHY WE SUPPORT RESOURCE CONTROL. cool

How can we be waiting for our younger brothers to come forward? Where is the leadership in us then?

We are the ones to reach out to them, table all our plans before them and make them see the bigger picture not to sit down in UK, draw maps and begin to circulate on facebook like Kanu.

Honestly Nnamdi kanu is not smart enough to handle this agitation, someone else with a lot of diplomacy and tact should take over.

We don;t have to insult Great Britain on radio Biafra for any reason. You must not insult any super power.

It is such a pity that kanu lacks wisdom and strategy.

only on one basis shall we support biafra agitation. if the the capital of the new biafra is sited in akwa-ibom or cross-river then the possibility of achieving biafra is 85% done. we have the capacity to produce resources to build a biafra that will stand dubai and asian tigers. we have the resources to place the new biafra on the world map to sit side by side with the 8 most industrialized developed countries of the world. we have done it in akwa-ibom with our resources and we shall replicate it in the larger biafra territory. uyo shall be the capital of the new biafra republic.

Go and read the agony the minority tribes in that region went through in the hands of biafran army, and you'd know how much they hate the minorities.

Capital being on Igboland is not necessary because individual Igbo communities can build cities far more beautiful than the capital once they control their resources.

The problem is that you would not get one hectecre of land from Delta. Like you strive to have Efik/ Ibibio, Nigeria too will strive to keep Delta as a minority and there's nothing you can do about it.

The Deltan can now decide if they want Delta State to be the next Kashmir, like India is doing to protect its boundaries or like Syria recently became to protect the boundaries of Iran n Turkey. That call is not n will never be for the SS or Biafra to decide.
