Trash!
Why didn't you say anything about countries that successfully seceded and are doing well. ..e.g. Singapore, Malaysia, etc.
The injustice in Nigeria is way too grave.

Just look at the country- truth is that there is no love across tribes!
Why continue to live in denial because of "united Nigeria"?
Patriotism to ones country is of the mind...it's not valid under duress
Wasting ur precious time to reply that clueless write-up surprised me alot. please, leave them in their ignorance.

before lord lugard came to nigeria that whole igbo region belonged to benin empire. you igbos relocated there from cameroon. you are from cameroon, go back home to cameroon .

Come on, let's be practical here. You are proud to answer the name of a River the White man gave you right? Imagine how proud you would feel if an African renamed you?

Look, there is a River in my village called "mmiri- ndida" ('River by sloap' in Igbo). I think I should name you after this River. How about 'Mirinda''? or maybe 'Miranda'? Although that is a girls name. Infact I will give you the choice Lugard never gave you by letting you choose between Mirinda (a former soft drink) and Miranda (Girls name).

Just imagine all the embarrassment you will save your self when you tell people that your 'River name' was chosen by a fellow African rather than a white stranger?

So which is it? Mirinda or Miranda?

Members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) protested in front of the United Nations building today, August 23rd in solidarity for the director of Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu who is in prison on charges of treason and other related crimes. The protestors armed with placards and Biafran flags called on the UN to liaise with the Nigerian government to free the IPOB leader...
When did the United Nation relocate it's headquarters to South Africa?

Folks all this internet chants woun't help, why don't we call our Senators and Honorable home to give us their view about BIAFRA and start the struggle from the higher and lower houses in Abuja & our state assemblies? They are there sharing our wealth while we are here abusing and cursing one another. 700 billion was released for NDDC Projects since inception, how much was used to develop the region? We need our LEADERS to be accountable to us and give reason we need to believe in them.
God bless US

I ignored him when he started his tales of Isrealites and Egypt instead of a comprehensive analysis on how the biafra will come to be. Their arguments is always based on sentiments and religious bigotry. No wonder the biafra agitations is not close to fruition. U need to listen to radio biafra and hear the Nonsense they spew every second. Al they know is to insult Nigerians, the president and call on chukwu okike abiama to give them biafra. No mission, vision and objectives as to why and how their biafra will be achieved. I consider them clowns seeking attention. Separatists movements are usually led by intellectuals who have a template and blue print of what the break away nation would look like. See how Lee Kuan yew transformed Singapore from nothing to world class. Ask Nnamdi kanu his mission for biafra and hear his hoards of IPOB yoots rain insults on you and call u yoloba. grin i see their agitations as mere comic relief






With these hatred, y r u still afraid of Biafra. U should help champion it so that we can leave in peace. Do u think Nigeria will ever rise? Nigerian problem started with hypocrisy, so u think u can cure hypocrisy? My guy just pray this don't escalate to another war cos even ur village will witness bombing.

What these people fail to realize is the shame and ridicule the biafra movement has become ever since Nnamdi kanu was discovered to be a fraud and arrested by the Nigerian government. Right to self determination is a treasonable offense against the Nigerian state because it's not captured in our Constitution. It is totally illegal for any region or group of people to demand seccession from Nigeria. The penalty would have been death if we were in a military regime. The Indian government recently opened fire on secessionist in the Kashmir region of India just to serve as a deterrent to future agitators. Despite having a referendum, Scotland chose to remain in the UK cos they for-saw their impending doom if they decide to leave. The Spanish government have disregarded several calls for catalonia to break away from spain. Russia recently annexed crimea from Ukraine after the crimeans got tired of life outside the soviet Union. The people of South Sudan are regretting their decision to leave Sudan till today and yet the Igbo's are hell bent on having biafra despite all the glaring indices of an impending failure if biafra is ever achieved. No country in the world wants a break away of its territory. Even the United States that preaches freedom disregarded Texas's call for seccession. The reason for seccession of the Igbo's has not been clearly defined. The fruitless agitations is fuelled by hate and jealousy of other region's political stability and doggedness. Their political miscalculations in the last elections gave birth to the recent biafra calls headed by the disgruntled element called Nnamdi kanu who was feeding fat on the Biafran sentiment before been apprehended. The British saw a potential in our diversity before merging us together as a united Nigeria and every sane mind believes the future of the Igbo's lie in nigeria. What we need is a united south and we will wrestle political power away from Northern monopoly who sees power as their birth right. Will the Igbo's ever work with bourdillon to achieve a united south? Time will tell. Say no to biafra, God bless Nigeria sad

The problem with people like you is that everyone of you thinks you what is good for the Igbos more than they do. The manner you guys are reacting to anything Igbo or Biafra is an indication that you deeply consumed in the ocean of hatred, bigotry and jealousy.

Also, when you comment you ignorantly include every Igbo person in your malicious conclusion and baseless arguments.

I advise you to leave the Igbo/Biafrans alone. Face your destiny. Why are you crying more than the bereaved?

Does this sound like someone an Igbo man would want to pair with?

Thing is, you know nothing about the Igbos.
They don't like you and you can't change that because your forefathers' betrayal.

They will never forgive you.

Same way they forgave the north.

But being a Yoruba boy, I guess your IQ isn't high enough to understand this.

You may be south, but you're North us.

cheesy the white man didnt give us any names. thats all a lie. all those names existed before the white man came to africa. the word NIGERIA is derived from the word NIGER which has existed thousands of years before the white man ever dreamt of coming to africa. NIGER means ' dark skin '. in fact a dark skinned guy in the bible was called NIGER and you know the bible existed before the white man came to africa. the point here is you have to do your research before you start believing lies handed down from generations. here is the word NIGER in the bible used to describe a dark skin prophet

acts 13 vs 1 Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, <<<< thats in the bible. same bible written before the white man even knew africa existed

Your write up was on point until i read the "united south" piece, that is where you also made a rubbish of all the sense you were making prior. Only some elements in the North just like Ojukwu or Nzeogwu thinks power belongs to them. Now look at how GEJ rubbished Nigeria.

What has your beloved Nigeria achieved since independence till date?All I see Is a country that's 2,000 years behind civilisation,a country doomed to be forever subjected to all sorts of evil and disunity.

Tell me what we have in common with one another or that particular thing that would make us carry ourselves high as Nigerians,nothing!Your useless country has nothing to offer but tribalism,hatred,bigotry,backwardness,quota system,laziness,looting,stagnation etc.

Your Nigeria is worse than hell that's why IPOB want you guys to have your country to yourselves.Tomorrow you want them to leave your so called Lagos to their East,yet you don't want them to leave.

I pity the delusional ones on this forum,because your brains are obviously dead if not you would know that your country is cursed.

Biafra is dead and buried since 1970. Live with it

If B.iafra is dead and buried then why do you keep talking about it? Why have you dedicated goodness knows how many posts to a supposedly "dead and buried" country? Ancient civilisations such as Phoenicia are long considered 'dead' but do you ever hear of anyone going to the lengths that you have to reiterate that fact? You don't need to convince someone of a fact...

It's not about the elite or about crooked politicians. It is about the sovereign will of a people and also the fact that the British colonial creation called Nigeria expired on 31st December 2013.

For ur tiny mind, you have made sense! When was Nigeria created? Was Nigeria naturally made? Name a country in the world that was artificially made that has existed.
Lugard almagamated this place. He created a country. For Bleep sake, countries are not artificially created. What Nigeria is doing is tryna use cohesion to bring us together. It wont work! Even if Biafra is not realised now, our children will continue, until Biafra is restored.
Ideologies do not fade away...easily.

Folks all this internet chants woun't help, why don't we call our Senators and Honorable home to give us their view about BIAFRA and start the struggle from the higher and lower houses in Abuja & our state assemblies? They are there sharing our wealth while we are here abusing and cursing one another. 700 billion was released for NDDC Projects since inception, how much was used to develop the region? We need our LEADERS to be accountable to us and give reason we need to believe in them.
God bless US

National assembly where northerners are majority in number? And with shackled swners slaves?

The reason the north keeps dominating is because they are united. Buhari has been winning Jonathan in the north since 2011 but he needed paltry votes from the SW to defeat Jonathan in 2015. This means there is power in unity if the south unites. Will the Igbo's unite with the SW? Your guess is as good as mine undecided

tahh..we dont need shallow minds,,,,in a democratical system we will still beat the wailers,even in military system too..

we choose jonathan to honor yar dua....theynever saw this...none of us never realy knew jonathan...shoeless phd??....i never knew him before he came close to yar dua........

This Igbos no just get ther bearing, You want to secede from a country and you still participate in an election of that same country, You still vote your people in the NASS of that same country, You took part in all the elections and say you want to go how is that possible? You have member among the FEC etc and also complaining of marginalization.. Well before i can take the igbos serious they will do these things...

1.. Stop electing your people to represent you in an election.

2.. Call back all the NASS member from your region.

3.. Relocate back to region and stop doing business with other region for now.
