Golan007:


In Daily Times of 1956?

The report is different from the article. And yes, Yoruba had always infiltrated the media to push their narrative. just look at has written as "as" there. That's their way.

We believed that the south may attend western education, but future leaders will always come from military background. Their traditional rulers were made influential and super human. The northerners were given accelerated promotions both in the military and civil service to justify their superiority over south. Everything was to work against the south. We truncated their good plan for their future. ‘I was very sorry for the A.G.: It was a great party too much for African standard. We planned to destroy Awolowo and Azikiwe well, the west and the east’.


And sowed the seed of discord among them. We tricked Azikiwe into accepting to be president having known that Balewa is the main man with power.


Awolowo has to go to jail to cripple his genius plans for a greater Nigeria”

Igbos betrayed Awolowo and the yorubas


Balogunodua helinues Sammy07 legendhero osaze coman see ooo


Pls read the boldly and see that Azikwe failed u...

Azikwe was responsible for sending awolowo to jail.

kingzizzy:
War could have been avoided had Gowon honoured the agreement he signed with Ojukwu in Ghana. But Gowon came back to Nigeria and turned his back on the agreement and Ojukwu responded by turning his back on Nigeria and declaring Biafra

It was the insatiable greed of Gowon and his fellow Northerners to be masters of Nigeria that led to war.

Even to this day, not much has changed. Southern Nigeria is still under the North

Bigot.. U skipped where he wrote that Azikwe foolishly accepted north n betrayed awolowo.. Sent him to jail

Igbos always betraying Yorubas since 1950, I'm not surprised.

Betrayed Yorubas In NCNC
Betrayed Yorubas and side with Bello
Betrayed Yorubas in the first coup
Betrayed Yorubas by startin the end of regional government (even tho, Gowon finished the job)
Betrayed Yorubas by not voting for Yoruba candidates (Except northerner imposed Obasanjo)

Iyan.miri are known betrayers... They have no balls to front

What has this got to do with what led to the war?

xcon:
. Remove anioma, oyibo egbema in delta and Rivers from your Igbo land pleas Igbo land start and end in the SE.

You would do well to STFU on things you know nothing about! I’m from ONELGA and proudly Igbo!

kingzizzy:

Azikwe actions led to the war

Constantjohn we all know Igbos are born betrayers.

They're still raw over Britain,yet they worship israel who also supported Nigeria.

Eziokwuegbuozoo:
This is why when I see all this evil and wicked Yorubas and Fulani terrorists jubilating over the genocide they committed with the likes of Britain, France and others against Biafrans as if they would have have done much if the fight was sincerely one on one, and they think that 2020 will be like 1967, that's why you hear them making foolish noise all over the places but we promise you hell this time around and that you shall get beyond your imagination, unless you decides to have sense and call for Biafra exit.

Skyfornia:
It's a long read...but the summary is that the Igbos/Biafrans actually fought against two Nations.. Britain and Nigeria.

On a very good day...the Igbo nation will beat Nigeria, but because Britain was strongly involved in the fight, it became two against one.

Fantasticcc:
Pure truth ,if not for the British heavy involvement
in the war who are Nigerians to defeat the biafrans,but soon Biafra will come and we will be the best in africa not this Nigeria with primitive/backward people.Biafra will be another Switzerland or Japan and we will make it happen

Keep consoling yourselves
You fought and you lost,shikena
When last were wars fought one on one
Wars doesn't just begin and end in battlefields ,gaining allies is also part of war strategy and it will still be in your credit when the war is won.
Anyways,why do you guys always leave out that you also had powerful allies

bigpriik:
interesting,one day I saw an Igbo man talking about biafra and I asked him what will happen to his properties worth millions in lagos if biafra is actualized he said he doesn't mind loosing it I was shocked! so much love and patriotism .

I believe The cries of the innocent souls that were wasted in that war is the fuel behind biafran struggle, biafra is beyond logic it's spiritual, the souls of massacred innocent people is what is tormenting Nigeria today the land is cursed unless we beg for forgiveness Nigeria is it its last days.imagine massacring 30,000 people because of a coup done by a few group of people who are power hungry, plus the 3million who died in the after war.
every hand behind the death of the 3.3million will pay Britain today is a toothless bulldog hiding behind USA once world power even China now bullies England.

Britain is a more better country to live in than China or even the USA,and of course infinitely better than the South East,or even when they were a superpower.
I doubt you'll find any sizeable number of Britons who will prefer their comfort over the old school idea of being the empire where the sun never rises bla bla bla or the ability to intimidate other nations.
Countless wars and countless souls have been wasted from time immemorial by similar offences which triggered the Biafran war. A lesser offence triggered a world war and even the infamous Rwandan genocide.
You guys have to move on...nothing like karma is or will happen...it's just the world doing its shits as usual...the universe does not give a f*ck!

Oga u think igbos as a people care about $14 billion dollars a year from oil ?

Bros Nestle makes 26 billion from oil ..buying 2.6 billion dollars Coco from Ivory cost

Biafra has always been regional control of resources ...let every people control their resources ...... The likes of ibibio , uhrobo ,efik and ikwere fought it because it would give power to the lesser tribes ...most of those big tribes u hear in the Niger Delta have no little or no oil

Example in rivers state okwerre makes noise but oyigbo , ogonis, egbema and ijaws are the real oil producers ....

In akwa ibom ...annag and ibibo , efik have little or no oil , eket , Ikot abasi , oron are the oil producers yet the big tribes marginalize them

So Bros igbos are not after anyone oil ..we have more than enough ...oyibo , egbema in rivers , .anioma in delta , oil in Nsukka and udi in enugu , oil in imo with very large gas ..oil in anambra ..oil in asa land abia ..we have more than enough ...[/s]

Yes,you care about their oil. That's why you keep claiming the Niger-Delta. Almost all your states revenues come from there,of course you care.
Anyways is this the oil you say is more than enough :
Akwa Ibom- the largest oil producer with 31.4% (504,000 BPD)
Delta – 21.56% (346,000 BPD)
Rivers – 21.43% (344,000 BPD)
Bayelsa – 18.07% (290,000 BPD)
Ondo – 3.74% (60,000 BPD)
Lagos – 2.64% (40,000 BPD)
Edo – 2.06% (33,000 BPD)
Imo-1.06 % (17,000 BPD)
Abia-0.68% (11,000 BPD)

As you can see,even the SW produces 4x more oil than you guys.

And you couldn't mention the powerful allies?

Ok

Consoling yourselves that it was because the British were involved in the war, that was why you lost.

Ask yourselves if there weren't mercenaries from other countries fighting on the side of Biafra.

Listening to only the stories that massage your ego isn't the way to live life.

BiAfra had few allies mostly African countries.

bigpriik:

Not just African countries. I learnt France and some Scandinavian countries covertly supported their struggle for Biafra.

Where did Ojukwu get the funds to prosecute a war?

Yes, his father was rich, but was his father rich enough to fund a war against Nigeria and Britain?

No!

The war was funded by allies and fought by foreign mercenaries.

Ojukwu armed his people cassava sticks, as the story went.

xcon:
. I am not Yoruba, I am anioma I believe in Niger Delta republic.

There's nothing like Niger delta republic in the making anywhere. The former niger delta republic was purely izon tribe.Who is their leader and where is their office if there is new niger delta republic agitation? Or are you the leader? Have they consulted other tribes? What type of political arrangements do they want? Kindly answer ma as I want to join so as to get out of Nigeria soonest. Nigeria has collapsed irredeemably and it can only become worst let's not deceive ourselves. It's a killing field where human life has no meaning but cow life matters most .

. There is Niger delta republic the day Nigeria will divide you will know that most minority in the Niger delta will not leave Nigeria to form another Nigeria(biafra )where Igbo will dominate and control , their is no need to destroy Nigeria where the northern part contributes agricultural and meat for the country to form Biafra where the SE are purely parasites milking SS oil, feeding on northan food and still dragging SW market. Igbo's are the most greedy people on earth.

story....it was a war....war is not dancing competition. you go to war to conquer your enemy. They were conquered and nobody cares how it was done. They would have done same if they had the upper hand. Moral of the story is do not start what you cannot finish.

Anybody is not happy and wants to continue to make useless noise about bia.fraud war can as well start another one and experience even worst than what their forefathers experienced in the past.

Feeding on Northern food? You mean iI food they bought with their own money? If the North feeding anyone for free?

When Nigeria breaks up, there will be a referendum. It is only by referendum that the UN will recognise any country. When that referendum comes, it will be the ethnic groups that will decide where they want to belong

Na so e dey easy to move on!

xcon:
. Igbo people should move on from whatever happened in the 60s

We will never forget...NEVER!!!

They have been sabotaging IGBOs from time immemorial....very useless people.

BIAFRA of now is more dynamic and more result oriented than before.

We must keep pushing..
