deeplow: Mr. Speculator, - did you ever stop to wonder what would have moved a 20 year old student to sucide over a people (across the atlantic) whom he obviously had never met? - Do you have any atom of history regarding the civil war? - Are you aware of the fact that Britain was fully involved in that war against Biafra thereby forcing the US to remain neutral and indefferent to acts of genocide that began even before the war? - Do you seriously think that an action that shocked some global influencers and forced them out of their beds of indifference was all for nothing? - Are you aware that the guy was obviously a jew? - Do you know anything about the context of world politics in the mid and late 60s? - What can you die for right now? If there's nothing you can die for now, then you have no idea what passion is. As such you lack what it takes to comprehend what that guy did. 7 Likes 1 Share |

pchukwudi: Mr Passion... How many of your passions would you die for? Him and Ojukwu obviously had the same passion, why didnt Ojukwu set himself ablaze? Nnamdi Kanu never set himself ablaze. As an Igbo man, would you be as passionate as he was and do like he did? 1 Like |

This Jewish boy gave his life to create awareness over a genocide happening thousands of miles away when nobody seemed to be listening nor interested. What a heart. Even though I think suicide wasn't necessary. He should have stayed alive and organised protests or something. There are other ways to create awareness. RIP bro. 3 Likes |

Bruce Mayrock was a hero of Biafra. While the likes of Gowon and Awolowo were more concerned about using starvation as an instrument of war to kill millions in the name of keeping the fictitious creation of Lord Lugard together, people like Bruce Mayrock brought global attention to Biafra by sacrificing his life. The difference between Bruce Mayrock and the eternal slaves of Lord Lugard called Nigerians is that Mayrock saw the suffering of humanity and knew that "one Nigeria" is not worth killing millions to attain. Slave mentality is a very difficult thing to escape for the average African man but I'm happy that my fellow Igbos and some minorities in the south of Nigeria are the only people in Nigeria who have long escaped this regressive way of thinking. Mayrock will forever remain in my heart an eternal hero! 3 Likes 1 Share |

chuckdelis: None of the above. Are you an ipob campaigner? If you are, go and do the same. There will be a public holiday in your honour. I still do not understand all ye "smart" ones defending his action. As it is now, the realisation of biafra seems to whither away by the tick of each second. Why not put the world at the edge of their seats, be a martyr, draw their attention to your cause. Are you too smart to not do what he did, or he his he too dumb to have done what he did? I believe many of you should have followed suit, you defenders of his action. Put your mum, dad, siblings and friends in eternal agony, to prove a point that could be proven in more sensible ways? That's dumb to me and many other sensible people. I don't know about you. 1 Like |

The Chap simply suffered from severe/psychotic Depression. And I can tell you this started as a case of Generalized anxiety disorder thus the reason why he is feeling guilty for what he has nothing to do about. Suicidal thought/attempt is one of the prominent feature of severe depression. So anybody praising this poor undiagnosed patient should simply go for a mental check up first. After being certified fit, you should set yourself ablaze in the name of Biafra. This will prove that a mentally fit person can decide to die(cheaply) for what he/she believes. |

What readily comes to mind is,"why did the man who led his people in to the war flee to another country at the height of the war disguised as a woman?"Another youth not having any link to the war gave himself up to prove a point. That's what you call bravery and having balls. |
