Brethren from the North,

I bring you greetings from the Southern part of Nigeria.

On behalf of the peace-loving people of the south in general and millions of Igbo youths in particular, I start this letter by commending you for your recent open letter to the acting president, professor Yemi Osinbajo, where you called on the pastor-turned politician to organize a referendum for the Igbos to enable them determine their future in line with international laws on self-determination

This current Biafra agitation IS NOT a bait for Igbo presidency, restructuring or appointments. My generation is simply sick and tired of sharing the same country with people who derive enormous pleasure from killing their fellow human beings over the flimsiest of excuses like the burning of the Koran in a far away Afghanistan, the shooting of a Palestinian boy in Gaza, and the drawing of the cartoon of Prophet Muhammed in far away Denmark.

Igbo youths are not aggrieved with Nigeria solely because their parents were massacred in the Biafra war. We are aggrieved because almost 50 years after the war, the same people who killed our parents are still killing us even in our homes using Fulani herdsmen, in our churches and cities using Hausa/Fulani soldiers who kill us and bath us with acid, and our places of business using Almajiris who slaughter us and burn our shops with state-sponsored impunity for no just cause other than the insatiable urge to spill blood.
I love the concluding part of your letter where you rightly asserted that the Biafra agitation is not an issue over which a single drop of blood should be shed. I agree. Which is why we are only asking for a YES or NO vote known as Referendum which is the only civilized means of settling this kind of issue. Now, my dear brethren, add a little work to your faith by prevailing on your leaders who control every facet of the Nigerian government to allow for a plebiscite for the Igbos.

Dishing out a quit notice to Igbos residing in your region when they are yet to be officially granted their referendum and Biafra is only tantamount to putting the cart before the horse. Until the Igbos officially get their Biafra, they remain Nigerians with all the rights and privileges of Nigerian citizens including the right of living and doing business anywhere in the country.

Instead of killing ourselves and creating IDPs everywhere, let us peacefully do "To Your Tent, Oh, Israel!" That way, we will still do things together but as good neighbors under mutually agreed terms.

Peace and love From The Land Of The Rising Sun.

Arewa youths will never agree with you

When one particular region now becomes a parasite that every other region want to do away with

Wonderful presentation.

Great. Let learn to do things like human. This is 21st century.

The nay sayers who see things in 20 dimensions of negativity will still find an issue with this masterpiece post.

Seeking cheap relevance! I am igbo but enough of this noise! There 're other ways redress can be sought and law and order restored! You want a referendum and you also want your people to continue doing businesses in the North and own properties! Pls does a referendum stop killing of innocent igbos who have refused to come back home in the North or it even worsens their plight? Selfish and wicked kinsman who care only for themselves, how do you explain to a man with his family doing business for decades in Kaduna and living peacefully to come back home because of a certain Nnamdi Kanu! Are there not better ways to seek protection and justice! This same selfish people that money means everything to most of them won't give you a dime or accommodation, when you relocate down to the east! They forget that lots of our people outside are more than.those in the east! And you expect their host to be friendly after all this altercation,Why endanger their lives.with your inordinate.ambition? With the hate speech being sown around even here online, the only way Nigeria will split and everyone goes to his tent is only through war, forget all this theoretical bullshit and stop deceiving yourselves, and we are not ready for that as a nation! Cos none of you noise makers know the true consequence of a war!A word is enough for the wise

Very apt and straight forwarded, I wish Northern youth can agree with him.

No long thing...straight to the point and apt.
But MODs won't take it to the FP.

You said you are Igbo but your thought pattern is yoromuslim. ...Nigerians have properties in Ghana, Liberia, Togo. Have they killed all of them. Are they citizens of those countries? Why does your blood thirsty brain think that we can't part in peace nd people stay where they choose carrying the passport of those countries.

Nobody is blood thirsty but you.

Eya, let me advice you.

If you really love Nigeria that much, and North.

Change your name to a core Muslim name Something like Ahmed Yaya.. Start going to mosque then Put a big Nigeria flag in ur Shop...
.. Because the truth is you can't control the internet, the hate speeches recently is extreme.

A referendum hopefully can reduce the hate. but till then you are not Safe in the North, keep vigilance, prepare for self defence.

Lastly, it's an inevitable issue... The North and South are entirely different and counter reactive. they would always explode.

Guy, with all due respect, you are not Igbo. We have lost you. You have been brainwashed. You are just another Joe Igbokwe. cf:

"When you hear an Igbo who criticizes Biafra, without taking into consideration the injustices from the Northern caliphate, just know that it is another joe igbokwe talking" - Charles Ogbu.

Hypocrite!
Do you have to claim igbo in other to pass your skewed opinion. Your comments bolded in the second paragraph gave you up.
Until Biafra is achieved, igbos remain Nigerians and have all the right to live and ply their trade in any part of Nigeria without fear or intimidation.

Make no mistakes, there are a million and one Joe Igbokwes who have succeded in fraudulently acquiring the garbs of Igbo patriots. To them, Nnamdi Kanu's Biafra agitation is unacceptable, not because they believe Nigeria is a better alternative but because they fear that the current agitation will deprive them of the privileges they currently enjoy in Nigeria


That Moment Charles Ogbu triggered a cord in my head.

Lol...

Now you have a sharp mind.... I did not even see it.

"I am Igbo " my a$$
#respect.

This should be an fp lalasticlala

As for me!
As far as FG has not arrest those that issued the quick notice, that means that they have backing from above.
My candid advice is for SOUTHERNERS that base in the north to relocate to their region first before September ending
