Honestly Wole Soyinka has a good heart towards the Igbos.

I want to use this opportunity to apologize to him for every insult hurled at him by the Igbos.

This man is one Nigerian Igbos should love and respect so much.

And if regionalism does not ever come, what will you support? The status quo?

Biafra came about because the North did not want true federalism. Biafra was declared by Ojukwu because the agreement on a confederation that was signed in Aburi Ghana was flagrantly breached by Gowon and his Northern cohorts. As long as the core North is part of Nigeria, true federalism will never come back because we all know they will vote against it at the national assembly.

Personally, I want my 50 million strong Igbo nation to be independent. We don't need Nigeria or some of the minorities in Southern Nigeria who are still shouting 'our oil!'. We need our freedom to Govern our selves. It won't be easy in the beginning but nothing good comes easy anyway.


God bless you my brother.

We are not interested in forcing any of the minorities around us, we will accept those that are willing to be part of us and those not willing can do whatever they like.

Igboland is all we care about, a country where we will not be classified as 5%.

If the igbos survived this long without Significant oil, we can do without the minorities...

We would survive wtout d minorities if they dont want to opt in (a note to all those affirmin that d oil rich minorities wont want it wt SE)

Even if we are landlocked, we will still make it...afterall Rwanda is landlocked and yet UNDI indices often favour it over Overtly exposed Nigeria.

I understand you bro...

I'm yet to see a homogeneous country. Let all southerners push for true federalism.

If we have a united southern nigeria. I think our dream can be achieved

How will you get true federalism in Nigeria? You need 2 thirds to pass a bill in the NASS on true federalism. The core North are totally against it and they have the largest voting block in Nigeria. Where will the 2 thirds come from? Even if all the southern reps at the NASS voted for true federalism, they won't get even up half the votes needed to push it through. As far as Nigeria is concerned, true federalism is a dead issue.

I'm not worried one bit! And many of your fellow igbo brothers and sisters working hard and doing well in other peoples regions like "abuja, lagos, ph, sokoto, kwara, yobe, ogun, calabar, delta etc" are not worried either!




It is only the bitter pained ones like yourself who are currently passing through some form of hardship that are worried!

Are you a south korean? Or an iranian? Why are you going off point? You are obviously an immature liittle runt that is why you have delved into the realm of hypothesis instead of focusing on the VALID POINTS I gave your fellow igbo man!




Now listen boy, the fact that your igbo people have not made any political headway of note since after the war is due to whose incompetence? "Gwari and benue" politicians are to blame I guess? Not your self centered igwes or political elites that are experts in pocket preservation!




The fact that your region suffers from superb environmental degredation, filth, erosion and crime is whose fault? Maybe it was "yorubas and hausas" that refused to use your states allocations, and constituency allowances for development abi?




See you crying about human flux! Who will you expect to "flux" into biafra sef? If not a tiny minority with ties to the region! Is it the same "hausas and yorubas etc" that you hate so much and would be glad to have left behind in the "zoo"! A nation like naija that plays politics of bitterness? You don't even want to imagine the sort of frustration that the government will ensure your biafra passes through to even get the most basic of necessities from naija!




Will the economic, political and social crimes that your elites have connived to have committed against the youth of your region such as yourself disappear overnight if you get biafra? Or would they get worse? People like you would even have less of a say in biafra matters since you have no financial or political leverage to barter with!

I have less of a say in Nigeria, my votes dont count, ma life and property dont matter once i step out anywhere to the north, tbere x an overwhelmin majority of northern in d assembly that wont push laws that favour me or my nationalty before theirs, i cant get a job in federal agency not by merit but only via nepotism or being A northerner.....so u see no reason to love Nigeria.

No matter the phrases u use, no matter how supposedly hungry u said i am, no matter the distorted logic u spewth forth ....I will still take Biafra over ur Nigeria.

Whether you like or not, Igbos are comfortable having a separate existence from you and your cotravellers.

Self-determination remains an inalienable right of ANY people.

You lots should cease dictating for other people how to live their lives. If we are really one, you need not shout it into my head for me to understand. 
We are totally different in many ways and have nothing in common.


There's virtually no other State governors that performed creditably better than Chime Sullivan, Peter Obi or Chris Ngige vis-a-vis the available funds at their disposal during that era.

With the global downturn, Igbo States are the least affected by the falling crude oil earnings. Even Fayose of Ekiti government had to send some of his citizens to the SE to learn a skill/trade in a bid to grow the economy of Ekiti State and Yorubaland as a whole.

Remember that soon after the civil war you lots connived and robbed Easterners of their hard earned money in banks and gave £20 to only those who could prove they had bank accounts.

You lots proceeded to use the stolen funds to buy up the numerous companies established by the colonial masters, looting the companies and rendering them bankrupt. And that was the beginning of the collapse of the Nigerian economy. Till date the economy is yet to recover.

Instead of developing the Eastern region after the war subsequent evil governments diverted Gowon’s 3Rs to your regions for rapid development while neglecting and under-developing the Eastern region.

Inspite of federal government presence and investments coupled with the numerous treasury lootings of Yoruba and Northern elites, the Igbos can still boast of having the highest concentration of middle-class citizens while a number of your States are in comatose with many of its civil servants surviving on the good gestures of concerned Nigerians.

The gross injustice and wickedness against the Igbo Nation have not deterred the Igbos from doing excellently and even competing on the world stage:

if it were up to me ooo when I hear Nigeria,the only picture that comes to my mind is southern part of it, the far north is like another country to me, and as for true federalism and that which is needed is 2/3 of the national assembly I think the south and the middle belt are on the same page. I might be wrong.we just have to go back to regionalism in that way we can easily diversify our economy with it region trying to make it resources count. all region will benefit, middle belt has coal, tin,limestone, iron ore education and food crop, south east has oil,gas coal, led, palm produce, limestone, white clay education etc, south west has crude oil, bitumen, cocoa, limestone, timber,education (can't remember the rest u can add yours) North east has I think gold, oil(not sure), etc, north west uhmm (u guys can help me with that). so regionalism is the way to achieve diversification quicker, oh not forgetting the south south oil and gas can't remember any.

I feel the anger in your writeup that many Igbos are determined to have a separate existence from you and your cotravellers despite the threats and challenges.

It's preposterous the extent a group of confused lots would lie and spread wicked propaganda just to share a mere geographical expression with the same Igbo Nation they have nothing but hatred and envy for. It indeed defies all logics known to humanity!

If your elites believe in 'One Nigeria' they wouldn't hustle to have dual passports and sending their children abroad to live and school with our commonwealth.
If 'One Nigeria' apologists like you are willing to risk their life for their country the way the Biafrans are doing now, Nigeria would have been a better place.

You and your cotravellers should cease dictating for other people how to live their lives. And the earlier you channel your energies towards consolidating OduaArewanistan republic the better for your survival.

A legitimate agitation by a people for a simple referendum is no way a crime.

And if regionalism does not ever come, what will you support? The status quo?

Biafra came about because the North did not want true federalism. Biafra was declared by Ojukwu because the agreement on a confederation that was signed in Aburi Ghana was flagrantly breached by Gowon and his Northern cohorts. As long as the core North is part of Nigeria, true federalism will never come back because we all know they will vote against it at the national assembly.

Personally, I want my 50 million strong Igbo nation to be independent. We don't need Nigeria or some of the minorities in Southern Nigeria who are still shouting 'our oil!'. We need our freedom to Govern our selves. It won't be easy in the beginning but nothing good comes easy anyway.

The same oil that made my Igbo brothers in delta, Rivers deny their origin. Igbos that accept their heritage should be allowed to go. They will succeed.
