'nigeria Must Apology To The Igbos For The Genocide Committed Against Them' by shehuolayinka(m): 8:36pm On May 28, 2019 |
Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has stated the Nigerian State committed genocide, ethnic Cleansing, and mass murder against the Igbos during the Nigerian Civil War. The former minister made this known in a series of tweets on his verified and official twitter handle. He also said the country will not know peace unless it apologise to the Igbo communities for the atrocities committed against them. He said, “Nigeria must offer an unreserved apology to the Igbo people of the SE for the genocide,ethnic cleansing and mass murder that was unleashed on them during the civil war. 3 million Biafran were slaughtered(1 millon of them children) in the space of 3 years during that conflict.” Read more: https://thebelltimesng.com/2019/05/28/nigeria-must-apology-to-the-igbo-people-for-genocide-committed-against-them-fani-kayode/ 1 Like

shehuolayinka: Igbos should apologise for destroying Nigerian democracy by implementing the first and bloodiest military coup in Nigerian history in 1966, an ethnic-based purge which ended the First Republic and led to the downward spiral that culminated in civil war. You just cannot wake up and go and kill the Prime Minister, regional governors etc, all from the other regions, while letting your own Igbo leaders off scot-free, and then when the nation reacts in anger, you claim to be the victim. This Fani Kayode fool should go and read the history of that period, because in his slavish, pathetic zeal to please Igbos, he seems to have forgotten what led up to the conflict, and the strong Igbo hand in it. 22 Likes 4 Shares |

Xander85: Don't be stupid. If a few years back, Fulani military officers of the Nigerian army had gone and killed the governors of the Igbo and Yoruba states, including President Jonathan, and spared all their own Fulani leaders, and then the incoming Fulani-led FG refused to arrest those murderous officers, OF COURSE there would be mayhem, and a vicious backlash against Fulanis nationwide. And nobody would be surprised. Why should it be different in the case of Igbos? Was it not Achebe who wrote that ''the man that brings ant-infested fagg.ots into his hut should not grumble when lizards begin to pay him a visit''? 17 Likes 4 Shares |

Sorry, who is rendering the apology on behalf of 'Nigeria'? Ike Ekweremadu or Rochas Okorocha? Are you really sure you need an apology from Nigeria or Hausa Fulani? |

They introduced political assassination after just 10 yrs of the country's existence. The cold blooded murder of Sardauna and Akintola and others still hurts till today. And the ripple effects continue till now.They brought out the monstrous side of the northerners and that has affected even the north itself Ibos then truly had a strong domination agenda/plan hatched by their big men. and they didn't even hide it well...they regretted it. During and after the war the propaganda was powerful with even foreign advertising companies hired and masterful authors like Achebe involved in fashioning the picture of an oppressed people just trying to be left alone. Many fell for that propaganda which made them blameless victims trying to leave a country in order to survive their hostile enemies. However the truth is they were the ones that started the hostility and they provoked the pogroms The only apology they might (and that's a big might) deserve is for some acts contrary to rules of war as regards .POWs , rape, excessive force etc on the battlefield and the issue of change of currency after the war as well as the pogroms in the north..but that would be after they apologize for staining the destiny of our young nation with innocent blood in the name of power grab. Many fell for the propaganda of the "victimized" ibos including Fela, and it seems Ffk foreign media etc. especially with the pics of the suffering children but the facts are there if u check well. Also Biafra was an attempt, after failure of snatching political power via the coup, to grab economic power in form of the just discovered giant oil fields of the niger delta. I hate to hurt feelings of Ibos on this sensitive topic but I would urge them to abandon the evil mind of their fathers and lets live in peace n love. In the documentary of the war an Ibo man said himself that the war was Gods judgement upon the Ibos 3 Likes 1 Share |

spinna: Thank you. I am an Igbo person, but I will always tell the truth. I am not blinded by ethnic bias. What confirmed that the 1966 coup was an Igbo attempt to place themselves above other Nigerians was the refusal by the Ironsi regime to arrest the coup plotters, and the total silence of the Igbo intelligentsia in the face of that screaming injustice. If such a thing happened in the other way round, no Igbo person would accept it. But somehow Igbos expected Nigerians to quietly accept the murder of their regional leaders plus Prime Minister? That says a lot about the narcissism of the Igbo collective. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Turantula: You are a born liar, like your father, the devil. Herdsmen do NOT kill ''100 per day''. That is a bare faced lie from the pits of hell. Telling lies will get you nowhere. Secondly, you must be absolutely batshit crazy to place the murder of ordinary citizens on an equal footing with the murder of political leaders in terms of the predictable pubic reaction. You must really believe, like your ignorant and stupid forbears did, that Nigerians are dumb and easily hoodwinked. Why not go and kill President Buhari, and when they ask you, you can start counting the numbers killed by herdsmen and ask ''is Buhari not just one person?'' STUPID MUMU. 8 Likes 2 Shares |
