i can guarantee you that with your 100% or nothing approach, you will always lose in Nigeria.

Come to think of losing, who really lost? With IDP camps in yoruba land, who lost. Forget the skyscraper in lagos. Your people are really suffering, and smiling! grin

Meanwhile between the time you made this comment and my reply more than 10 luxurious buses are discharging new internal refugees from ibo land into the SW and more are dropping off.
Your homeland is becoming desolate every day and you are shouting IDp in the most prosperous region in Nigeria

Sure grin And every Xmas, those lagos based refugees come back and build upstairs and leave enough cash for their old mama in the village in Igboland. And off we go again to gather our money.

A word is enough for the wise. You can continue your agitation. I'm not tribalistic but maybe the next civil war will reduce the Nigerian Igbos to just 2000 in total population.
Well, the Yoruba heartland will witness the worst bloodshed if Nigeria tows the part of another civil war. You guys are certainly not on the fence. It has been established already. Time will tell. The savagery that will be displayed will make the world scream. Like the Jews, we shall never sleep until our land is secured from demons. Pressure is rising already.

Those that have sea, have seaports like Apapa like Onne, like Calabar.

Ondo and Ogun with sea don't have seaport, so why is landlocked SouthEast complaining about seaport? Must you always associate the SE with the SS to have some legitimacy? Is the SE that irrelevant?
Can a castrated man complain about not having children?

Nigerians whose monies where taken in the East and in the banks in Benin by Biafra, did not get a penny from anyone. You should be happy that you even got something after forcing the country to fight a war that is not meant to be a cash crop precipitating economic growth. Besides you got all the allocations accrueable to the East after the war. The hated Awolowo ensured you did, and also credited the banks to ensure loans can be easily sourced to revive the economy of that region.

Any contraband would always be siezed and disposed of as the customs/government deem fit. No concessions would be made no matter the crocodile tears shed by the tribe committing the offence of criminal importation of goods. Or is contraband now know as Igbo goods? Or in typical victim-complex disorder, the contraband was targeted at Igbos?

Quota system and federal character is good. It ensures you don't cry like a baby when a greedy tribe like yours siezes power and behave like you did in the aftermath of independence with the NCNC providing the administrative resources in the alliance with NPC. You long for those days, but you killed it with your greed.

In one breath you canvassed for fair representation, but in another greedy Igbo breath you condemn quota system and federal character principle. You deceive no one, Igbo man.

Whether checkpoint or not, Igbos are still scared to return to their villages due to security issues. A US military veteran was only killed recently after returning home. Many who vow not to return home are of the opinion that the checkpoints are a necessity in the East. Besides, checkpoints are everywhere in Nigeria, so enough of the crocodile tears.

Igbos hated in Nigeria for nothing? It seems you didn't get the tribal memo that any Igbo man who has been welcomed in a community outside of his own, must then proceed to denigrate the culture, the people and their traditional authority and everything they hold dear and sacred.

Who can love such a creature?
I like the way you write and denigrate ndigbo but one day, you shall regret it. Only very few things are keeping Nigeria and they are failing fast. We know all your evil machinations but because we are wise, we won't dance to your tune. We the right time comes, you won't know what hit you.

Yes, that shows you the SW is the most prosperous part of Nigeria. The best of Igbos don't succeed until they step foot into Yoruba land.
Tinubu stated same in the presence of your elders, that you only succeed in Nigeria if you come to the most prosperous and peaceful part of the country.

It's an ibo coup! You can believe otherwise from now till you are no more, it doesn't obliterate the fact that ibo officers killed leading political and military elites of other regions while sparing their own and eventually the beneficiaries of the coup were ibos.
You guys set Nigeria back by 200 years with that night of madness by your drunken brothers

Sorry to burst your bubble but I cant on account of your NL post, discard the written account by Major Adewale Ademoyega, one of the masterminds of the coup who said it was by no means a tribal matter.

It was a patrotic act by young idealistic officers. Revisionists like you turned it to a tribal matter and are the ones responsible for starting the war, setting Nigeria backwards and to a large extent are responsible for the likely coming division of this country

Rubbish talk from a man born with slave mentality and low self-worth.

Biafra is not a forced union like Nigeria, the Eastern Peoples Assembly rose in that meeting in 1967 and demanded Ojukwu to declare The Republic (a child of necessity) and it's not by force to be a Biafran!
Several Igbos/Easterners who saw their future outside Biafra, remained in Nigeria.

All we ask for is a referendum on the subject - a right to self-determination, a human right, as done everywhere else in the world.
Nigeria, over the years, has shown it has nothing to offer Biafrans or mankind for that matter.
There is absolutely nothing wrong in a people saying, this thing isn't working, we wish to try something else.

As the wise would say: "It's only a mad person that would keep doing the same thing, whilst expecting different result."

Nobody hates yoruba but yorubas. Remember the title of this topic where an afonja had to change his name to igbo before he can be relevant in life.

The Igbos are in lagos and doing their legitimate money and making good mulla and you are crying grin

The Igbos are making cool cash in Europe, America and Asia and nobody is complaining, except the hate filled yorubas who will open thread upon thread to cry and sow seeds of discord. Is it our fault that your people can't compete elsewhere apart from Lagos?

Why do yorubas and hausas like using Igbo names to perpetrate their anti-Biafran propaganda, write articles and send to anti-Biafran newsites for publication.

Who is 'Tochukwu Ezukanma'? 'where does he live?' Who verified his identity before publishing his nonsensical article that refused to mention that the 'Igbo coup' had only 55% Igbo officers, 35% yoruba (olamifihan, Adeleke, Ademoyega, Banjo etc) and 10% northern officers?

So he is an 'Igbo' who would have prefered that the Igbo to have folded their arms and allow the hausa and fulani mobs from the north come down to the East unchallenged to continue killing and then take their chance and establish an Emirate in Onitsha like they did in yorubaland after probably killing 15 million Igbos?

If I challenge him to a live debate (He is too small for people like Kanu, Dr. Clifford Iroanya, Barrister Emma Mmezu), will he take up the gauntlet?

That is how they said Joe Igbokwe is not Igbo. Anyone that tells you the truth 'is not Igbo'.
