This is today:
And this is simply priceless:

I tried o!

But too many attacks on the Igbo wore me down. Excanny predicted it.

Dede1:

What the hell will I do with your putrid mouth? Again, Fela's sisters were frolicking with the likes of Brigadier E. E. Ikwue.

And what does that have to do with the topic? Are Fela's sisters not allowed to associate with whomever they choose? I don't get your mindset; it appears that you just want to attack anything that is associated with Yoruba.

Am yet to comprehend contextual definition and use of some words, at the global level, such as "human rights", "freedom" etc. If the Igbos want a nation of their own I consider it a rape of their collective will and slavery to force them to remain in the political entity called Nigeria. I still don't understand some things about how this world works!

To those who are alluding that since Fela did not sing a song in support of Biafra, he did not support it, you have to be aware of certain facts. During the civil war, Fela had not become a revolutionary singer. In the sixties, Fela's band was called Koola lobitos. His band changed to Africa 70 after he returned fron the US in 1970.

Everyone is aware of Fela's legacy, so I do not need to educate anyone. Anyone who tries to remove from the greatness of Fela is just being disingenuous.

Dede1:

No wonder you have not amounted to anything throughout you miserable life on earth. Are you not ashamed of your dilapidate brain even to insinuate Igbo started Nigeria\Biafra war? It is only in the land of maniacal fools that declaration of independence tantamount to starting of war. What a confused dimwit.

How would your shriveled old arse know what I have or haven't achieved? If you want to play a game of my house is bigger than yours, that is one thing, but don't lump it with a vacuous war in which your arse got whipped.

Who started the Biafra war? You silly old rat.

What a stupi.d old fool. You want to unilaterally declare independence within a federation and it's not a call to war? What else could be a call to war, bloody slowpoke?

@ CAP28

AS much as i agreed with most of your sound
anallysis of Nigeria/Africa Geo-political situations,
i disagree with your assessments of the first coup
led by Nzeogwu. They laid a bad precedence that we
still suffer from today. Granted the election that
presceded the coup was unfair as was alleged.
However, it wasn't the duty of the military to intercede
that is the work and duty of the elections commission
and the judiciary to probe and correct the irregularities.

The only recourse for aggrieved persons like the majors,
should have been to educate the people for any subsequent
elections. So, is obvious that these young officers did not know
their duties.
After their errors of commission, they should have been court-marshalled
and summarily executed to appease the desecrated spirit of unity of the nation.

To what end my people - to what end?

We just like to drag and argue and insult eachother. So the hell what if Fela supported or didnt support Nigeria? The man is long gone and we're still in this state.

Use your energy to do something productive - instead of senseless arguments and name calling here.

amazonia thanks for your comments, i think you have to bear in mind the situation of the country at the time that Nzeogwu and the other majors struck.

Its very easy for us to condemn what he did but you must try and place yourself in his shoes at the time of the coup, this man was a very intelligent and upstanding individual, my only criticism of him is that he was a bit idealistic in that he felt that his co conspirators could rise above tribalism in the same way that he did.  Nzeogwu was unique in that he didnt think in terms of  tribe and he underestimated the deep hold that tribalism has on the average nigerian.  Had he succeeded you and i would have been having a totally different conversation today and my belief is that nigeria would not be in the tragic state that it is in today. 

I think it is naive to expect that the electoral commission would have been capable of remaining impartial at that time, the electoral commission would have been answerable to the colonial govt and if we are saying that the colonial govt were the ones responsible for the election rigging then it would make absolutely no sense at all to expect the electoral commission to override the authority of the colonial govt.

please have a listen to this link and you will see that the outcome of the 1959 elections had already been pre determined by the british.  The british were never going to hand over power to a southerner as we were seen as loose canons and difficult to control, the whole idea was to have a pliable puppet in place who would do as he was told.

by the way nigeria has never been a united country, it is forcefully held together by the nigerian govt because of the oil reserves in the south east.  If there were no oil reserves in the south east, the igbos would have been allowed to secede without any challenge, please try and understand that "nigeria" is a fake contraption held together not for the benefit of its indigenous people but for the benefit of the hausa fulani oligarchs and the british and american oil companies, we the nigerian people are merely pawns in the hands of these people.

here is the link alleging britain's possible involvement in the rigging of the 1959 elections, most of the information highlighting their involvement is contained in two files which are being held in the british national archives here in london and remains classified, this information will not be released to the public until 2060 when we will all be dead!!!!

You can also listen to an audio account in which a former colonial officer sent to work in nigeria is consumed with guilt because of what he claims was his involvement in a tragic injustice meted out to the unwitting nigerian people:

What did Fela's support for Biafra do for Biafra?. Why can't Igbos celebrate men like Wole Soyinka who actually Fought for BIAFRA and not ARM CHAIR SUPPORTERS?

*** not all Igbos though*** but i totally concur with u . . .
not quite sure wat dis arguments/ insults is all about,  Fela is long gone,  Biafra or no Biafra dats wayyyy over 2,  abeg dis topic tire person 2 read let alone d whole arguments/insults

Visioners supported Biafra and NIGERIA has nothing to be proud of, after 50 years! Electricity, pipe borne water, etc, these still dominate up campaign promises. Shame!

Nwa Mazi@Poster, I hail your position on all issues raised. I seemed to have joined this thread rather late and may not have the time to read through all the posts. However, my reasearch has shown that the average Yoruba NEVER did support the Biafran dream, indeed, a Banjo was the main reason Biafra lost its surprise attack ans imminent take over of Lagos as the seat of power in teh first few weeks of the war. Had he not sold out, Nigeria (Biafra) would have been in the league of China indeed the Asian Tigers.

I want to say that what the protagonists of Biafra saw in years gone and the likes of Saro Wiwa sabotaged them are the very same reasons that Saro Wiwa and teh Ogoni 9 were killed. A little support, just a little support then, and we would have been kings and princes in our domain. Today, the Biafran dream is only what it is, 'a dream'. My kids will grow to know there was a Biafra that did not happen which if it happened, they would have had no need to travel overseas for funtional education, good infrastructure , etc because Biafra would have provided all of that in abundance.

To the rest of us, Let us see what this contraption called Nigeria will develop into or defragmentilze into, we are all living and watching.

Aro Okeigbo Mma ma Nu!!!!!

God may never allow you to grow old. You will die a sudden youthful death and you old parents, if you have any, will bury your sorry arse. By the way, what pushed a nincompoop such you to conclude that I am old?

If you are not dumb piece of dirt, I would have urged you look toward in eastern Europe where countries have declaration independence and the right thinking humans beings in Europe never regarded such act as a declaration of war.

You are so daft in articulation that your access to free air should be denied. I guess a domesticated monkey such as you should know that independence is not declared bilaterally.

I am now more convinced then ever that imbecility is programmed in your DNA. There is nothing you can do about it.
I'm quite surprised I didn't see "conjectural crap" in your response, that seems to be your only response to everything.
Of course, you are a wrinkled old piece of shi.t, but that is besides the point.

If after all these years you've spent on this planet, you still don't know that a unilateral declaration of independence from a federation, without any agreement with other component units is tantamount to a declaration of war, then nobody can help you.

You were born stupi.d and silly you shall remain for the rest of your miserable existence.

If you want to test my hypothesis, your God Ojukwu is still alive, tell him to declare another Biafra and see what happens. Agbalagba didirin!

If you are not moronic Aigbofa, I wish all the incoherent rants from a dirty pig such as you to befall your entire lineage.  It is only demented douche bag such as you would assume that declaration of independence is act of war and should be done bilaterally.

Thank you seanet02,

May Amadioha strike your entire monkey family to smithereens!

Your passive aggressive behaviour is written all over your posts on Nairaland for everyone to see. You need to see a shrink, cause you are obviously crazy!

I can not waste my precious time crossing words with log of wood. For umpteenth time slowpoke, declaration of independence is not a subject of bilateral execution. However, undomesticated monkeys such as you would always conjure declaration of independence as an act of war. I am not surprised you have to defend the legacy of your forbearers. What a jackass. I suggest you jump off a cliff.  

May spirit of ofa pay you a visit in the middle of the night, agbaya!!!

I'm asking your thick skull again. Tell your God Ojukwu to try your non violent, unilateral declaration of independence and see what happens. Oloshi, Ode, Oniranu.

what a display of stupidity

For every insult that has been said on this thread, may those insults go back to their sender.

And for those who want to die young o, and for those who are oniranu ode o, your insults are your loads to carry. Aseee!!

Please do not waste time with the dullard who wallowed in a pool of idiocy and flip up an idea that suggests declaration of independence is a matter of bilateral execution. It is either the dumb arse does not know meaning of “unilateral” or the fool just wants to flaunt ignorance uncontrollably.

I suggest you write what you mean and mean what you write. You can not ask a thick skull to direct you to Ojukwu. If anybody is endowed with a psychotic skull, you have proven beyond reasonable doubt you fit the description. I thought you worth the time but obviously you are incarnate of a drooling dunce.
