Lagos used to be a very beautiful city before it became the congested mess it is now, thanks to riff raffs from potopoto republic. And this was before oil oh, yet some daftees will come here to tell you how Lagos was developed with oil, gala and fanyogo. Lagos that has been developed before their ancestors started wearing pants. Its shocking Aworis aren't even the ones asking for a separate country.

Bingo why don't you allow the "potopoto" people to go in peace so that you can turn Lagos back to paradise? Why do you develop epilepsy when you hear the word 'Biafra '?

It shall never be well with those who are against biafra. If I had my way, I'll send all of you back to your potopoto shitholes TODAY

THE TWO GREATEST MEN IN IGBO HISTORY RAN
AWAY FROM DEATH.


-Ojukwu ran away to ivory coast dressing like a woman
-Nmamdi kanu ran to no where.he is just a "mouth
warrior" like all IPOB terrorists and Aba made jews
bloody cowards!


FOR INFORMATION,IN YORUBALAND,AARE ONAN
KAKANFO MUST EITHER RETURN VICTORIOUS FROM
WAR OF KILLED BY WAR.


IN YORUBA LAND,Nnamdi kanu and ojukwu are too
weak to be worriors.They are women

the old western region had only 3 cities then; Lagos, ibadan and Benin. The old Eastern region had 5; Enugu, onitsha, Aba, calabar and Ph
If Nigeria still had the Regional govt, the Eastern Region would be where the action is.

The war cost Igbos everything sad

You are very correct. I am not Igbo, but believe me, that war was the biggest mistake Igbos ever made. Just see how they lost control of that powerful eastern region.

Story!. How is it anyone's fault dat d Igbo allowed themselves to be led on a suicidal war they could never win?.
Have d Igbo learnt any lessons frm dat unfortunate episode?. Recent events like d Kanu/IPOB saga seem to suggest that many, especially d youth learnt very little frm d dangers inherent in lining behind an obstinate leader who can only lead them to avoidable ruination.

It wasn't named for the APC politician but for Madam Efunroye Tinubu, a successful Egba-born Lagos businesswoman in the 1800s. READ YOUR HISTORY BOOKS!

I swear it beats my imagination why any Yoruba man would be against their so-called Biafra as if we have anything to lose. I think it's just the typical Yoruba "political correctness" at play. Our people like forming detribalized. Maybe they will wake up someday when they realize they've been outnumbered. I hope it wouldn't be too late by then.

any tribe asking for a separate country(twice), are too confident of themselves staying alone without any help from anybody or any tribe...
like the Catalans, they are very prosperous and can stand on their own... they don't need ur help that u are forcing on them. go help urselves first

yes the igbos developed lagos with gala and yoghurt and oil money ... if we are not valuable to u, you would have desired for us to leave u
people without sending ur soldier sons and daughters to stake their blood to keep us. if we are not valuable... do u know how many Yoruba sons and daughters died in 1967 civil war just to keep us with u. why forcing us and still complaining?

igbos are too invaluable

like the Catalans, its only the independent minded and prosperous people that always tend to leave, so that others wouldn't be dragging them back as u people are doing now
if ur tribe is as confident that they can develop without igbos let them try to leave us and form ur own country

igbos are great jare

Without putting up a fight?? How do u think u got ur independence?? You should read about Herbert Macaulay & the struggles between the traditional rulers (and there were a few across the island) and the colonialists.

This one you're writing is epistle. Unless you've seen me posting against biafra, everything up there is junk. I'm tired of y'all repeating that line. Like I told your fellow I-pussy youth up there, if I had my way, I'd send y'all back to your shitholes today. grin
You're running away from your land to the southwest , but we are against you having your country lol. cheesy I never knew Yorubas held the keys to biafra. How many Yorubas died to keep you in Nigeria? Tell us their names. Yorubas that were doing owambe in their states while y'all were being suyanized. Gtfoh

The war don't cost Igbos any shiit, are we not better than the other tribes when it comes to development and riches?

Stop your Kayota noise.
we are babaa but we could have been miles ahead.
Ojukwu's father was nigerias dangote then, zik president, aguiyi chief of army, nwafor orizu senate president
Oil wells were in our region and we owned them 50%
There was peace in the region unlike the wild wild west
