Why I Will Never Support Biafra by Nobody: 12:39pm On Jan 18, 2016 |
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.

TonyeBarcanista, are you so cowardly that you chickened out of posting with your main moniker? Whose interest are you serving actually? Why creating unnecessary bad blood between people just because of hunger? You don't really appreciate the gravity of what you are doing now, as far as you are concerned, you are just hustling for your daily bread. It's quite shameful that you offered yourself as a cheap and willing tool in the hands of the same forces that oppress, suppress, enslave and exploit you. Are you so hungry? Are you so bereft of principle? Why revisit and distort history thereby creating bad blood that will last for generations just for a crumb of bread and personal comfort? Again, who's interest are you serving? Who are your new paymasters? Dude, things run far deeper than your little mind can grasp now. Far far deeper. Thread wisely.. 5 Likes |

TonyeBarcanista: STFU and stop being a coward! Are you sure you have a díck between those feeble and scrawny legs of yours? If you must throw stones, don't do that and hide your hands. I hope the blood money you received is enough to justify your new employment which is to wage a psychological media war on the IPOB guys after shamelessly supporting and egging them on earlier?
