fr3do:



You have already drawn out a map for us.
I thought Biafra was a mirage.

omonnakoda:
No not at all ,it makes some of you feel good to think you are being forced to stay but the reality is different we cannot wait to see your back. We just have to follow "due process" but the map is already drawn be assured

ahaika23:
I'm for BIAFRA! Rivers and a greater percent of its populace choose BIAFRA!

omonnakoda:
Does not matter what you want. What matters is what Nigeria will permit.

ahaika23:
We're not slaves like a section, we hold our future in our hands so BE VERY AFRAID! What's happening to Osun is bliss compared to what will befall your nigeria when we're long gone so you need to be VERY VERY AFRAID!

tensazangetsu:
lol how many igbo men have you met that are married to yoruba women or fulani women the few that do that are fools and don't know their history. The British never left nigeria they still control this country with neocolonialism and lastly in an igbo republic merit will reign over everything else no one cares if you are from asaba or aba.

omonnakoda:
talk is what you are know for.When market set we go know who bring who come market

ahaika23:
Ok! You got nothing more to say from your empty head about the topic and now you face me? I don't threaten anonymous, it would be a waste. If you wish to know what I can do to you, send me your address and photo!

chuna1985:



If u see no reason why igbos should get equal States like every other geopolitical zones in Nigeria, Then ur very unwell.

tensazangetsu:
A nation only grows faster when people with similar goals and culture inhabit it an igbo has nothing in common with a yoruba or hausa. The best thing for nigeria is to split it was a creation of the British and is not benefitting anyone.

omonnakoda:
You still have to pay

chuna1985:



If u see no reason why igbos should get equal States like every other geopolitical zones in Nigeria, Then ur very unwell.

illiad1:


Lol
Funny you!



Even with a billion dollar concocted debt, I would still opt for a Biafra than a miserable Nigeria of quota system & less educational states, where mediocrity is celebrated & merit jettisoned all in a bid to favour a perpetual backward North.

omonnakoda:
You do not argue your position by abusing people .First of all the so called geopolitical zone is not the basis for creating states. Why should they have the same number of states as Yorubas why not more .There has to be some basis for making the argument. On the basis of Population and Land mass the Ibos are a minority and one would question why they have 5 states which seems too much compared e.g to Ijaws who have ONE are Ibos 5 times as many as Ijaw? In my opinion Ibos should have no more than 3 states and already have too many

omonnakoda:
Is your father ok? You better go and treat his epilepsy before he falls in front of a truck

Goodboiyy:


U spoken matured bro. atleast u know the truth . i prefer having an itskeri nation. We re big enough to form a country. but the luv i have for nigeria is jst too much. On a second thought having an Odua country with SW AINT A BAD DEAL. Jst like d anioma Will luv 2 b in Biafra. There we go again. we have d pro-Igbo and pro-Yoruba in some part of SS

God Bless Nigeria , God Bless you, God bless Our Leaders

ahaika23:
my father is makin a fool of himself! I need to send him to Yaba left so they will take care of him!

omonnakoda:
They are not as backward as you think,that is a myth.In many ways the Eboes are more backward and certainly were the most backward when Nigeria was created. This is a fact.many southerners bandy the myth of backwardness but there are many parts of Ebonyi and Akwa Ibom that are more backward than anywhere else.Fact is most southerners who say this have never been to the north.
We support Biafra just don't try violence

udokpuenyi:


Subject the issue of Biafra to referendum, at least it is constitutional and forget about who will be part of Biafra or not. Igbos have never bullied part of this country to be part of Biafraland, even the minority down Niger will have their say in the referendum. The Yorubas know why they are shaken to their marrows anytime issue of Biafra comes up.

Octaves:
If Nigeria wants to be together, some things must come into place. Particularly resource control and devolution of power.
If the one Nigeria you are talking about is the type we have now, then u are just making mere speech and are far removed from reality.
Since 1960, Nigeria has been divided and if the root causes of the division are not tackled rather than giving fancy cliched peace speeches. Nigeria will continue to fall apart until the center cannot hold.
Biafra is a good idea for the easterners if Nigeria is not fixed.
Last time i checked, war has not been part of the equation of actualising biafra. Most activists are seeking peaceful solutions.
You opening this thread about a problem that doesnt exist or is insignificant makes me doubt your identity as an igbo man. U are either a Yoruba or yorobanized igbo. Either way, u dont know what you are saying.

solreb:
Nice write up and spot on. The best way for Biafra to come up is through referendum. Trying to seceed forcefully is a fantasy with so many obstacles. Massob and ipob have their differences. I listen to Nnamdi Kanu the director of Ipob all the time to amuse myself because of lots of trashes, inconsistencies, abuses and hate speeches he spews on Radio Biafra, including the fact that he is already appropriating all the Niger delta states as Biafran lands. What a joke.

londoner:

Exactly, but they don't want a legitimate process because of this kanus selfish ambition to become ruler.
He is not even talking about elections or Igbos chosing who they want either and that is why he is acting alone, outside of the Igbo state govs or traditional rulers but will just institute himself over a war ravaged people fresh from a war he will begin under the guise of a love of Biafra.

bushdoc9919:


Is America homogenous? Canada? Even Russia/the Old Soviet Union?

(Russia today is not homogenous....they have Europeans and Asians)

zendy:



Britain, the creators of Nigeria is made up of four constituent parts. England,Wales,Scotland and Northern Ireland. Everybody was living witness last year when Scottish agitation for independence culminated in Scotland being granted a referendum. Nobody was shouting "we must be British!". Instead, what happend was that there was a national debate about the pros and cons of Scotland going it alone. That's how civilised people do things. But in backward Nigeria, somebody will be in Akure and be shouting at someone Enugu that "we must remain one Nigeria!" and I wonder if some people have common sense. The very people who created Nigeria have already showed us how solve inter-ethnic disputes but some people are chanting war mantra. Lugard killed people to create Nigeria. Gowon killed people to keep Nigeria one. Yet, the same Nigeria has not moved foward from 1960 to date. Millions have died to keep an unworkable, failed state going. Why? Because Lord Lugard told them so. Those who indulge in deciet will be put to shame. I still want to believe that a referendum which will usher a peaceful dissolution Of Nigeria will be conducted

macof:


Is Germany homogeneous? Yes
Is Austria
Japan
China
Korea
Singapore
France
England
Scotland
Denmark
Sweden
Netherlands
Portugal

Yes they all are
I could go an mentioning homogeneous nations which so happen to be European and East Asian nations and are doing just fine economically and free from internal violence that lure your brothers over running away from Nigeria

if you can proudly say Somalia is homogenous then I say Russia is as well...after all there's a greater percentage of native Russian speakers in Russia than Somali speakers in Somalia

Why can't Igbos, Lower Niger/Niger Deltans, Arewa(Fulani/Hausa/Kanuri), Akan, Mande be allowed to develope their own nations?
Why should we live as the dammed British declared? Are we dogs?
Don't you have a mind of your own? Can't africans make their own decisions on how to live and who to live with in the same country?

OnyeIbo:

What are u saying?

coolitempa:



Lol... .....like Somalia and Rwanda...... .....I so badly want Biafra for these people.....

marv1:
It still goes down with the fact that the region can get more from FG. Dont get me wrong if you want to get 200 states in ur region go ahead. But at least let the ones on ground be accountable and working. If some igbo govs who can not pay their salaries are not even fighting for more states but bailout and you mr nobody asking for more states are very very unwell.

bushdoc9919:


Thank you for answering me.

First...slight correction....China(Uighurs, Tibetians,Koreans, Mongolians), Singapore(Chinese, Malay and Indian)and even Sweden are not homogenous.(Sweden has a minority tribe that lives up North).

(I would have added Japan....Ainu and Okinawans are there too in addition to the majority Yamato people).

But to answer your question....what makes countries great is a realization that they cannot live on the sale of their resources....and that such resources are limited.......and the use of such resources to become industrial.

And homogeneity does not equal development. Ask Somalia and most Arab nations (eg Yemen and Iraq, and even Turkmenistan....seriously underdeveloped nations that are homogenous.Mongolia is another example.).

Thanks for your answer.
