Here in nigeria there is no modern train, no tram, no metro, no modern transport system, no good roads.

Most importantly, never had good leadership.

It's quite hard to say goodbye when you know it may be the last.

But u can't withstand the bravery of the Igbos, u re being humiliated in ur own soil by ordinary Abo.kis.
Atleast, they proved to the whole world that they can't be taken for granted.
Nigeria lost higher no. of soldiers than d Biafran side.
It's bc of starvation that made them to lose d war.

Biafran lies. Stop fooling yourselves. If the war lasted another 1 year, it would have been called ethnic cleansing

Back in the days when Nigerian soldiers were real soldiers. Not fake. Not Shakara. Not corrupt. Not thieves.
Back then, dem no dey chop our money. Dem no play politics. No corruption. Dem protect the country. Not attacking Nigerians.

Back when Nigeria was Nigeria. Our agriculture was very strong. It was the main source of income for the country and it's GDP.
Oil was only in it's infant stages - It was NOT even a factor then. Nigeria did NOT depend on oil back then. Oil became a curse instead of a blessing.

This country was on the path to be a developed country. Then the Nigerian Army changed. Taken over by greedy, corrupt, uneducated elements.
And that is why the country is the way it is now. How we wish we could rewind back the clock and freeze it at that time and just try things again.
How we wish we had a different result for the country now. Nigeria could have been the "United States" of Africa if we had done the right thing.
Nigeria would have been the model country not just for Africans and African countries, it would have been the envy of the entire world!
Yes o.
