Biafra Can Only Be Achieved By WAR by Rossikki: 2:39pm On Jul 29, 2017
Nigeria will not let Biafra go.

Biafra accounts for 90% of FG revenue.

Expecting Nigeria to allow Biafran secession is like asking a man to stick his head through a noose and hang.

So far I've seen large crowds at Kanu rallies with colorful flags and attires.

But I've seen precious little by way of military build up or preparations for actual combat.

Isn't it time someone told Kanu to form an army or quit disturbing our peace?

So you are basically saying that Nigerian unity is because of oil and that the reason Nigeria won't let Biafra go is to continue sucking their oil.

So basically one Nigeria is a scam.

This info you have here OP in the words of obahiagbon is "audible to the blind and visible to the deaf" that Biafra is dead on arrival. It can only be achieved through war in this country, And that's not one avenue that those coconut head wants. As for referendum, their so called leader will grow old and it won't be achieved.
My candid opinion, fight for your rightful position in the committee of major ethnic nationality in Nigeria through the ballot box.

Exactly, Nigeria is bonded by oil, this is why the Northern Senators were skeptical about restructuring.

But the Northerners are waking up slowly though, they now hold several meetings to talk. Let's hope the wind of change is blowing there too.
My friends who travelled to Kano before the BokoHaram saga seemed to have enjoyed the place, who knows, something good can come out of the North.

Which of these states is an oil producing state

1. Abia
2. Anambra
3. Ebonyi
4. Enugu
5. Imo

Or do you mean South-South is now Biafra?

You insisted that you want to leave Nigeria, granted.

You now want to drag South-South into your potor Biafra, Wayo.

Is that your plan? e no go work grin

You must be given Biafra and you get nothing other than the five erosion-ravaged Igbo states.....

That is a childish argument. There is no nation on earth that will sit back and allow its primary resource base to 'secede' from it. It just doesn't happen. Texas has at least 4 major secessionist groups, who want that state to leave the US. But as the oil and gas headquarters of the US, Texas will never be allowed to secede, no matter how much Texans demand their right to 'self determination'.

Re: Biafra Can Only Be Achieved By WAR by nokatakata: 3:02pm On Jul 29, 2017
Well even it will be achieved by war, I think it will eventually happen and it won't be war against the biafrans only. It will be war against the south. It will be north vs the entire south. I don't even think there will be any war. I just believe everything will scatter and everyone would have to go their separate ways. We do not need to make too much noise. 2019 is coming and as usual, the northerners will want to continue with their born to rule mentality. The yorubas are keeping mum because they feel like they are benefittiing form the present govenment because osibanjo is vice and they are hoping if buhari resigns, osibanjo will take over. Well the memo is the northerners will not accept. They will do anything to remain in power and it will be really funny, stupid, late and sad to see yorubas crying that they want out. The opportunity to leave this union is now.

It's simple common sense. Some group of people can't just think the country belongs to them yet be claiming one nigeria. The country is not working and will never work. Let everyone go their separate ways.

The thing is the lgbos say they don't want their brothers in the south south to leave their ancestral land which is shared by many other ethnic groups.
The Nigerian leaders who ruled after the Biafran war were smart, they divided the regions in such a way that you find Igbo's divided all over the south south, and even all the way to Benue in the middle belt. Same thing with the Yoruba's who were divided to have communities in the middle belt like kwara and kogi.
Even Hausa/Fulani have been scattered all over the middle belt as communities too.
They have made a unified clamour for secession by any major ethnic group difficult.

Let me tell you all one simple fact.

The Biafran army that Nigeria fought in the civil war was a standing army with a streamlined command structure.

The Biafra army that Nigeria if stupid will dare fight now will be an insurgency. It will be boko haram time 100. The Nigerian army will be open targets for snipers when they venture into cities. Attacks will be coming from all directions from Biafran insurgents and they won't be wearing uniforms unlike the Biafran soldiers in the 60s.

Did Nigeria army defeat rag tag boko haram? No

Have they defeated avengers? No

Now add Biafran insurgency to the mix and you realize that this will not end well for Nigeria this time.

born to rule mentality was a phrase coined during the military era. This is a democratic dispensation, no particular group owns this country only the smartest are the leaders and the foolish are lagging behind.

Scotland is also the oil and gas hq of the U.K. But they got one referendum and are working towards another.

We keep talking about oil in this country but only about 5% of people in this country even benefit from it. For me, it's a huge curse. The problem is that a tiny handful of a venal elite benefit from oil and are loath to loose their stranglehold on what is essentially rent.

I was expecting someone to say this here but since you are the one that said it let me respond to it. This terrain you mentioned, i.e avengers in the south and boko haram in the north have you studied them closely can biafra sustain even a guerilla war with the other parts on the account of seccession

More bombastic nonsense. None of those groups are threatening to seize Nigeria's primary resource base. Biafra is. The Nigerian military response to secession will be on a scale and magnitude 50 times greater than BH or Avengers.

You sound exactly like Gowon who said he will take Biafra in 2 weeks. Almost 3 years later he was still fighting.

This time it will be worse because this generation is 3 times more stubborn than their parents.
