It is most is unreasonable for any one to tag this protest 'Igbo'
These protesters do not represent Nd'Igbo and their actions do not in anyway represent the aspirations of the Igbo nation.

[b]Kanu foolishly led himself into an avoidable problem. He is like a lamb cheered by goats(ipob youths) to take on a pack of hyenas(FG) grin Going by his unkempt and frustrated looks in court recently, am sure he wish he could turn back the hands of time but its too late. He enjoyed the fraudulent fame while it lasted. He wanted to be a rebel leader. A rebel leader with no military background. Which sane rebel leader will go as far as soliciting for weapons on a recorded event? His mistakes are enormous and there are better ways he could have fought his battles without spreading hate and implicating himself. Kanu is just a buttie boy overfed with the comfort of london and that pushed him to run his mouth like a tap on biafra radio. He looked like a chicken in the rain in court and was even described as standing in court without uttering a word. Am sure the Dss treatment is gradually restoring his brain to factory settings. Before the previous Biafra war, Ojukwu had a template of what biafra would look like and even presented his demands through the aburi accord in Ghana. He had military experience and a PlanB if the aburi accord was rejected. Despite this, Ojukwu regretted leading his people to a bloody massacre and has since called for a United Nigeria. Kanu's approach was to brainwash innocent youths, spread hate and bile and even instigate war on other non igbo tribes. No concrete reason why they want Biafra other than the Yorubas and Hausas hate us so we have to go. Comparing Kanu to Ojukwu is an insult in all ramifications. Kanu's predicament will never end soon. He will pay for all those hate speeches and instigating wars against peaceful Nigerians. Where are the bombs he threatened to use on Radio biafra? Where are the jet fighters? Where are Ipob soldiers he promised to unleash on the zoo? Pride goes before a fall. Kanu has fallen and all the igbo youths can do is protest. with time everyone will forget him in jail and move on with their lives. I hope uchemefor is learning from this before he finds himself in the same fate.

God bless Nigeria.


Say no to Biafra[/b]

Wasn't it people like you who said 'Kanu is coward for not coming back to fight for his cause' 'he is enjoying himself in London' 'He dare not step foot in Nigeria'. What happened? He fearlessly came back to face his detractors. The man has always said that he would gladly lay down his life for what he believes in, you think it's that kind of person that can be scared with detention and torture? You said Ojukwu led his people into a bloody conflict. How did he do this? Who came down to the east to start a shooting game of war? You said Kanu spread hate? The hate has always been there long before Kanu was born. You said he instigated war? Is there any war? Boko Haram, Fulani cow hearders and Niger Delta militants are doing much more to instigate war and you are worried about someone talking on a radio station. Kanu solicited for arms on a recorded event? Yes he did and he did so in country were it is legal to do so. Anerican residents are legally empowered to own firearms,but that is not the important issue. The real issue is did he get arms and did he fight? The constitution does not recognise soliciting for arms as a crime.

Just the same way you believe in 'one Nigeria' is the same way anybody has the right not to believe in it. Grow up man

This actually happened on Friday 15th January and a new one is allegedly planned for this morning.

The Rivers state Government has issued stern warning to the IPOB to stay clear of Rivers today or face the full weight of the NPF and other security agents!.

Well the trap is obviously working because Kanu's detention was a big reason Buhari came on national tv to discredit himself in the eyes of not only Nigerians but the international community by supporting the flouting of court others. I think Kanu would gladly gone to kirikiri for this alone

This is why as a Rivers man i will never be part of biafra and would advice all true Niger deltans to embrace Niger delta republic quest and preach the gospel were ever you go... Dont be deceived by the igbos on biafra. They should go on form biafra with south east states, we are capable as south south to be a republic of our own, we will gain nothing to abandon Niger delta republic for biafra, that is pure foolishness if we do so, we rejected it and can never go back to accept ofcos our dead father will weep in their grave if we do so, are we niger deltans dogs? No we are not dogs we cant vomit and go back to eat our vomit, God 4bid... pls read below copy and share:

Ojukwu's Atrocities on Old Rivers State
Rivers communities seemed to be worse off. Apart from the
killings, torture and other forms of human rights abuse, they
were deliberately evicted from their homes towns and
replace with Igbo indigenes. As a consequence, many
Rivers people from Ikwerre, Ogoni, Okirika, Eleme and
Kalabari communities were evicted to “concentration
camps” in Igbo towns like Umuahia, Owerri, Abiriba, and
Ozuitem. That was how able bodied men, women and
children were systematically starved to death and buried in
farmlands. Ongoing massacre was only confirmed by siting
of dead bodies in New Calabar and Sombriero Rivers of
Rivers State.
An Irish priest who served in Rivers State reported how
Rivers people were maltreated because of perceive
sabotage by the Biafran Igbo soldiers. At Bolo and Ogu in
Okirika, and Onne in Eleme, the villagers suffered the same
fate. After the battle at Onne, Biafran troops removed the
town inhabitants suspected to have collaborated with
federal troops and sent them to the Rainbow Town
headquarters of the Biafran 52 Brigade in Port Harcourt.
Graham-Douglas, who was also thrown into detention,
claimed to have seen about three hundred men detained in
the Rainbow Town for no just cause. He asserted that no
fewer than sixty thousand Rivers people were sent to
different concentration camps in Igbo land.
Graham Douglas narrated the ordeal Rivers people suffered
in the hands of the Igbos in a pamphlet titled “Ojukwu’s
Rebellion and World Opinion”. He claimed that the
minorities tribes had suffered more hardships and
molestations than the Igbo could claim to have suffered at
the hands of Northern Nigerians. Biafra hired Markpress as
it image laundering and propaganda press. They countered
most of the sordid account of massacres committed by
Igbo Biafran in Niger Delta lands, like those narrated by
Graham Douglas. The world was therefore blinded to the
massacres committed in Rivers State.
Some prominent Ikwerre leaders like Elechi Amadi and Obi
Wali were marked for death. History had it that Obi Wali
was hidden by his kinsmen in a human waste dump forest
at Rumueme. Elechi Amadi was made fugitive in his
homeland. Ojukwu ethnic cleansing was coded as
"COMBING". No Niger Delta ethnic group or community was
spared of Ojukwu's combing. History recorded that Biafra
act of combing led to the Massacred of defenseless
civilians at: Ogoni (Bori), Eleme; Okrika (Ogu); Kalabari
(Bakana, Buguma and Billie); Ikwerre (Rumuola, Rumueme
and Isiokpo) and other Niger Delta communities of the
present day Rivers State too numerous to mention.
The plight of the minorities had been so alarming that
several Nigerian students of Rivers State origin in London
staged a peaceful protest against the killing and
displacement of their people. In addition to a peaceful
march from Trafalgar Square to the House of Commons in
London, they also sent out petitions to the United Nations,
the Organization of African Unity (OAU), His Holiness Pope
Paul VI, Emperor Haile Selaisie, the British Prime Minister
and other relevant groups, raising alarm of massacre of
their kinsmen in their homelands, asking them to bring
pressure on the warring parties to stop the senseless killing
of innocent and defenceless people of Rivers State for a
war the seek no part of. The petition was said to be a
landmark document that established to the world that not
all Eastern Nigeria region was part of the ideology called
“Biafra”, and dashed the claims of Ojukwu that he was
supported by all ethnic group of the region. Following the
petition, the international community mounted pressure on
Ojukwu to forfeit his struggle and negotiate for peace,
which led to an asylum window for Ojukwu’s capitulation a
few months after.
