Freedom For Palestine But Subjugation For Biafra. Why? by OutOfTheAshes(m): 3:47pm On Oct 09, 2023
Fellow Nigerians especially my Muslim brothers. Let's have a dialogue about the quest for the independence of Palestine and Biafra.

I need constructive criticisms and arguments, please.
Why should Palestine be free from Israel's occupation but Biafra must be in one Nigeria?
Re: Freedom For Palestine But Subjugation For Biafra. Why? by Aonkuuse(m): 3:53pm On Oct 09, 2023
I am not a Muslim but why would the Igbos support Israel against Palestine but want almost the same thing the Palestinians want?? You want freedom but don't want others to have theirs?

Your comparison is baseless!

Is Biafra occupied? Has an inch of Biafra been claimed by Yoruba`s or Hausa?

No one is stopping the emancipation of Biafra. Till date, no senator, Governor or influential elite has supported course, but you keep blaming outsiders for the failure.

Tell all your senators, governors and influential elite to stand-up for the course. They are in positions to make a change or call for a referendum!

I don't think your claim is the reason why they have been supporting Israel. I feel it has to do with brotherhood. Igbos have always claimed to originate from a tribe of Israel called Gad. It's just like supporting your brother in times of need. And it also could be a response to the support Muslims all over the world give to their fellow Muslims in difficult times. It's just sentimental not objective. However, this is my own opinion, I stand to be corrected.

Biafran fought and lost a war to Nigeria. And thus was forced to be part of the federating states in Nigeria.

However the quest for her independence still lingers as evident in the agitations across the south east, and numerous clashes between IPOB and Nigeria security forces.

You and I know how the rules work in the national assemblies. It's a game of number which the SE doesn't have. Referendum can not be achieved because of the numerical strength of those on the other divide.

What are you pointing out exactly?

That the government should not neutralize violent agitators when they have representative in government? Palestinians don't even have a voice.

Is that how it is done in Democracy?

Follow the due steps and stop using violent agitation!

I will repeat, if all South East Governors, senators and representatives stand-up for the course, a referendum will be achieved. Till date, none has stood up for Biafran`s

You are funny, 😂😂😂
It's not possible for elites and politicians profiting from a system to work towards its demise.
Politicians will never champion the disintegration of any corrupt country like Nigeria because they thrive within the corrupt and dysfunctional system and are constrained by their loyalty to the head of state and the state itself.
Movements like carving out a new nation out an existing one will always come from the people, it's leadership will be people who are unshackled, free and connects to the grassroots.

First IPOB was waving Biafra flags and were gunned down in cold blood. They were nonviolent. Nigeria Government provoked them to pick up arms and defend themselves. Even you will do same in that situation.
Secondly, our political leaders are not interested in the agitations because they are government workers under oath to work for Nigerian interests. In addition, they are very corrupt and don't represent the interests of their people. If they don't represent the views and interests of their people how do you think they will support a cause that would benefit the people? It's so unfortunate that we have these kind of leaders. The people should decide their fates not a bunch of selfish politicians

Ok I'll just go through it post
When you guys saw that there was killings of pro biafran agitators where was your voice? Did you condemn it? Or when operation python dance happened where was your voice did you condemn it? Also I don't want to hear "oh IPOB did bullcrap" because I'm yet to see any evidence regarding IPOB donating bombs so that so that. IPOB Massob etc have tried to become peaceful but you idiots killed them now you have the result
Anambra ambush orlu Crisis Owerri prison break etc is the result of the nonsense you guys foolishly caused and now you idiots will continue to pay the price it'll continue until you guys negotiate with the seperaists

Who elects those politicians?

Oh! Peter Obi, Obiano, Otti and the likes were not elected by their people? Did they rig their way in?


That is the problem you pointed out there! You want to exclude your leaders from the agitation, but so quick to blame other tribes.

You still blaming other people for your own flaws!

Do you guys ever take responsibility? Who is losing out at the end of the day? Yoruba`s or Hausa`s.

You are breeding gangs, criminals and thugs, and still blaming others for the same group of people you supported and even took orders from.

Tell your leaders to rise up to the stage. Its 2023!

Even the Odua nation agitators can also throw blames like you doing too.

After using federal might to rig elections in the SE, you then blame the innocent masses for electing bad leaders. I just don't understand. Didn't you see how Abians voted for Otti? Look at his strides in that state.

Are you saying in the last 10 years, all SE government representatives were rigged-in?

So the likes Orji Uzor, Okadigbo, Peter Obi, Ekweremadu, Obiano and the likes were all rigged-in?

Take responsibility for once!

stop this ridiculous argument. The only people who can allow Biafra isn't the Igbo representative but the other ethnic groups and the British government.

The entity call Israel now is Palestine land... Israel has no claim to that land except quoting the Bible.. who does that?

Israel is occupying a sovereign state called Palestine, Nigeria is not occupying Biafra. There's nothing like Biafra in the first place...

What Israel is doing to Palestine is akin to Apartheid South Africa not Biafra...💯

Is that Biafra?

Now you are talking! Why haven't they presented that of Biafra?

If you are conversant with politics and democracy, you should know a lot is invested to passing bills. A lot of bridges are established to win goals.

Its not by being an island and expecting things to get done!

We have people in the south east who can sponsor such bill, but they never will cos they don't believe in Biafra!
