Nigeria didn't do any bad thing against the Biafrans.

There is no country in the world were someone will just rise and say he is taking is region/people out of the country the way ojukwu did, and it won't lead to war.

When Ironsi was the head of state of Nigeria, Isaac Adaka Boro decided his people are been marginalise in the Eastern region, so he declared the Niger Delta region as an independent country.

War was declared on Boro and his men by Maj. Gen. Ironsi. Col. Ojukwu should have learnt from Boro ordeal.

My friend stop talking about something you know nothing about, Ojukwu didn't wake up one day and say he is taking his people and region out of the country, his people and people from his region were hunted down and killed all over Nigeria, 80,0000 of them were killed, in the North, west and middle belt, the federal government did nothing to stop the killings, ojukwu did everything he could to solve the problem of his people and region without breaking away from Nigeria, the aburi Accord signed in Ghana between Gowon and ojukwu could have put an end to all the problems, but what happened? Ojukwu waited for 3 months Gowon did nothing about it, while people from the eastern Region were pressuring ojukwu to break the region away from Nigeria, he finally did, it wasn't a decision he made alone everyone from the eastern Region was involved

It was never about marginalization it was about survival

I blame all these on the slavish leaders from the region, who don't know how to fight their rights.


Apart from a few of us, Igbos don't want any federal presence or infrastructural development in the southeast so that they can cry marginalization as blackmail tool. They prefer share the money. They do not give 2 bleeps about that. Else I see no reason an Igbo dominated GEJ government that sold oil at max prices for 5years had no atom of infrastructure in the south east yet he is revered as a god. Nobody can say the truth and tell him to his face. They are busy licking his Ijaw ass hanging onto false hope that if dey become slaves to ijaws some how somehow ijaws will foolishly come with them to Biafra with all the oil they have. This is the reason there are no infrastructure in Southeast. Self deceit is reif by political actors in the east. If I ask u now you will somehow want to twist and bring Buhari to fault like 16 years of a party u support and still will support does not exist. This is truth.. I don talk am

There is a saying that if you want to hide something from an African, a Nigerian hide it in a book cause they are too lazy to read , there are a lot of books out there that gave a complete account of what happened before and during the war , the most famous of them is The Biafra Story written by a British journalists Fredrick Forsyth he witnessed it first hand he was one of the people that made Biafra war gain international attention during that time

Re: Kukah: Wounds Of The Civil War Have Not Been Healed by pquaver(m): 3:13pm On Jan 14, 2021

By Nwafor Sunday The Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Matthew Hassan Kukah, Thursday, said that the wounds of the civil war have not been healed. Kukah disclosed this at a zoom meeting organized by Dele Momodu of the Ovation Magazine and Mazi Ezeoke.

Speaking on the theme: The Second never again conference: 51 years after Nigerian-Biafran Civil war, the outspoken Bishop, advised Nigerians to compile a history of the country, noting that knowing the history will calm/qualm the taste for violence. Kukah who has been on the media for criticizing the current administration and proffering solutions to the problems of the country noted that Nigerians and of course their leaders are not happy with the current situation of the country.

He highlighted, poor economic policies, insecurity and poor education/health systems as issues bedeviling the country and advised the current administration to fix them. “We are failing in almost all the sectors. We must stand up and fix them”. Speaking further, Kukah said that there is enough blame to go round, noting that everyone should be blamed for the current situation of the country. If we are saying NEVER AGAIN, we must identify some fundamental issues. We must have our history written down or acted as a movie. We must understand the role of religion in Nigeria. The issue of consequentiality should also be of great essence. There should be consequences for good and bad behavior.”

Ordinary pension of biafra soldiers ekweremmadu and abaribe could not facilitate. It the dullard, nepotism ridfed Fulani man they love to hate that paid biafra soldiers after civil war but no kukah was blind all the years the veterans were crying for their money. Now he wants to heal the wounds wonderful.. Well its not still bad if e start now to heal but abeg mske kukah dey send father mbaka to the talk am abeg.. The message and the messenger no fit abeg.

Why would Biafra troops attack and kill people in it territory?


Your nigeria troops did the killing all over East,forcing them to renounce Biafra,Asaba massacre is a good example,if not that it was well documented,by now you nigeria will claim that it was Igbos that killed Asaba people.
All in the name of making others to hate Igbos and to keep Nigeria as one.

exactly, the pain inflicted on the Igbo was and is totally unacceptable and tends to crime against humanity

SpecialAdviser:
Fact remains the war never ended till date. It is like the cold war era. The war became a war of ideology.

Revenge on Igbos continued till date. Unfortunately Nigerians continue to harm themselves and damage their country thinking they are doing Igbos. The Igbos themselves have never forgotten the war. This is because the revenge of the war continue to stare at them on daily bases.

If not for the ingenuity of the Igbos, they wouldn't have come out strong after the war. I have told people who keep shouting Nnamdi KANU is a scammer, the only way your talk can sink into any average Igbo man is to clean the Biafran ideology from his brain. He doesn't bother who is a scammer for so long as the message of Biafra is preached. In the absence of Nnamdi KANU will arise millions other Kanus. You cannot tell someone to forget where his hope lies even as Nigeria has refused to work. Impossible.

I blame all these on the slavish leaders from the region, who don't know how to fight their rights.

1. 600 km of roads under construction across the 5 states of the region, as at May 2017 (See details in Item 10, the article by presidential spokesperson, Mallam Garba Shehu)
2. Allocation of 16.67 billion Naira from the Federal Government’s October 2017 SUKUK Bond, to four critical road projects in the region:
a) Rehabilitation of Onitsha-Enugu Expressway
b) Rehabilitation of Sections 1, 2 and 3 of the Enugu-Port Harcourt Road.
3a. Continuation of Early Works on the Second Niger Bridge. Phase 4 Early Works more than 40 percent completed as at beginning of May 2018.
3b. Inclusion of Second Niger Bridge in the list of projects to be funded by the newly-established Presidential Infrastructure Development Fund (PIDF), the Buhari Administration’s infrastructure fast-track initiative, launched in May 2018.
4. Formal flag-off of the N-Power Build Programme, the Buhari Administration’s Vocational Training and Apprenticeship programme, took place in Enugu State, on the premises of Anambra Motor Manufacturing Company Limited (ANAMMCO Limited), on Friday May 18, 2018.
5. More than 22,000 graduates currently benefiting from N-Power, across the five States of the Southeast, receiving a total of N679 million in N-Power Stipends monthly. Another 43,000 Volunteers will be joining them, when the second phase kicks off, very soon. In addition, 1,416 trainees are currently participating in the newly-launched N-Power Build, and an additional 1,900 trainees will come on board before the end of June 2018.
6. The National Home Grown School Feeding Programme, which provides one meal a day to public primary school children, currently feeds more than 680,000 children, and employs 7,366 cooks, across Enugu, Anambra, Imo and Abia States.
7. GEEP, the micro-credit component of the National Social Investment Programme (NSIP) has disbursed a total of N1.2 billion in loans to 24,155 beneficiaries across the South East.
8. Commencement, in October 2017, of payment of pensions to police officers who were granted Presidential pardon in 2000 after serving in the former Biafran Police during the Nigerian Civil War. These officers, and their next of kin, have waited for their pensions for 17 years since the Presidential pardon.
9. Presidential Fertilizer Initiative (PFI): Ebonyi was among the first few State Government’s to sign up to this Programme. The result is the revitalization of a moribund Fertilizer Blending Plant in Abakaliki, which now supplies NPK Fertilizer to farmers in the State and beyond. For more on the PFI, visit /PFING
10. The 2018 budget proposal has allocated up to N10 billion for the development of the Enyimba Industrial Park and Nnewi Auto Park, as part of the Federal Government’s Special Economic Zones (SEZ) Initiative. Both projects will be implemented in collaboration with the respective state Governments, and the private sector.
11. Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) Projects, to boost power supply:
11a. Commissioning/Switching-on, on Monday, 21st November, 2016, of the Ikot-Ekpene-Alaoji-Ugwuaji Switching Station and Transmission Line, comprising a total of 287 kilometers of double circuit Transmission lines ( Ikot Ekpene — Calabar; Ikot-Ekpene — Alaoji, and Ikot-Ekpene — Ugwuaji)
The new infrastructure will increase transmission grid capacity all the way to Enugu, and provide transmission capacity for power plants along the lines. The project had been stalled for about two years prior to that, due to community and court issues.
