If you watched the IPOB video it would be clear that the soldiers tried to retreat in their armoured vehicle but were continually attacked by the agitators. If a blaring siren wasn't enough warning then I wonder what would be. Besides you think an approaching angry mob armed with deadly bottles and stones does not qualify as a clear and present danger? Puuhleease.

Take it from me, the hundreds of innocent lives taken in the US already this year involved minimal confrontation (not even physical attack with bottles and stones) from the agitators.


You're sounding really ignorant so I'll recommend that you google #blacklivesmatter for more enlightenment.
You seem the one ignorant my friend. Wondered why the police use tear gas and army dont? Wondered why the police use riot shield and army dont? Its simple, its the police that is built and equipped to quell people who throw stones, bottles and water. The fact that the army is there trying to put an order amongst those who ain't even armed is a shame.

Nigeria is a like a worthless slave before US


If US wants to disintegrate Nigeria today, in One week it will be achieved


Remember that the US backed the South Sudan, East Timor , Croatia, Slovenian etc to gain independence


So mind the way you talk before they deal with your ragtag country whose existence is at the mercy of Western nations and Biafrans
I wanted to simply type "k" to what you wrote because of your opening remark, but let me just ask: have you bothered to check why US "supported" those countries you allege they supported?

Nigeria "at the mercy of biafrans"? Where the hell do you people get your funny ideas?

Your relevance is tied to oil. The US no longer need your oil. Do anyhow and you will see anyhow.
The US have already set a precedence when dealing with nation-states with zero regard for civilian lives. Your president would do well to be warned.
Ok. Let us ASSUME they no longer need the oil, my question to you is "WHAT DO YOU HAVE THAT THEY NEED"?

Anything else will definitely end up in blood and tears.

The video showed Soldiers firing and retreating. Soldiers should not be shooting over sticks and stones. That is not what the Nigerian government put guns in their hands for. Did you also see the agitator who was shot in the leg?

Clashes between the civil populace and the police/Army happens every day all over the world, it is nothing new.

But when Police/Army decide that sticks and stones is enough reason to shoot into a crowd, then that wrong.

After 2 days, Soldiers in Abia state now regrouped and stormed the place killing several unarmed people. I dont even want to go into the human rights abuses they commited by gunning down people all over Aba and Umuahia and making people lie down in muddy water.

The Army were already there for a widely publicised military operation and were attacked by an approaching angry mob armed with bottles and stones, you sound as if they were specifically sent there to quell a riot.

The agitators should have not been so stupid as to try attacking a military procession. The Shiites were not half as lucky as the Aba agitators.

As for the invasion, blame the cowardly chest beating runaway Kanu for threatening national security by instructing his legion of followers to burn down the country to ashes if he was rearrested, and daring the military that it would meet its end if it also tried to do so in Aba.

Read Reuben Abati's letter.

If the US decides to arm the Biafrans to achieve their independence, kiss Nigeria goodbye.

Is this an official U.S. Govt position or an idealistic peace advocacy NGO/agency?

I'm asking because the America I know will never tolerate anyone that tries to undermine or attack their military whether with bottles, stones or grenades like IPOB.

No wonder, nothing surprising.

Yes fact but you cant see American soilders interfering to civil matters you hardly even see them on the road. but Nigeria is a country who's vigilante works are even done by the millitary so what respect would they get?

Nigeria is a sovereign nation. If she's going to "restructure" she'd do so on her own terms. Don't be fooled, no one would force us to do anything if we don't want to, not even the US. Go ask Mugabe.

That said, i don't give a damn about "restructuring" (whatever that means. Everyone seem to have it on their lips today and that shît is as vague as it comes) or a complete breakup. What I do as a man is try to make the most of whatever situation I find myself so I wouldn't have to blame anyone for my failures or give anyone credit for my success.

And if anyone is sitting on their oars thinking the country would be "restructured" in the nearest future, that person must be the most naive being on the planet. In addition, anyone who assumes our problems would simply vaporise upon "restructuring", that one is probably a fool.

The fool is the one doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

Every right thinking person knows the current system is a failure and must be adjusted to face modern realities.

Zimbabwe is a nonentity country. Why not talk about Sudan, Iraq, Libya, Syria? etc

Nigeria will be restructured sooner than you think. It can happen over your dead body if you wish... angry

I support the declaration of full war against IPOB. Anyone who decides to do 'buy one, get one free' with his life gets no pity from me. What is Kanu s intention for creating the erstwhile Biafra secret service if not to carry out acts of terrorism? The US can shove its advice up its stinky ass.
