You will only kill yourself.

You will be trapped in Nigeria post Igbo secession, a Nigeria that would be more than 70% a Muslim country, a country where the North would constitute more than 70% of the population.

Where your resource control fantasy will remain a fantasy forever where your chances of influencing any decision at NASS would even become more difficult, as the Northern percentage by representation would even increase there with Igbo exodus. Not that is any of the Igbo man business. We would be busy building our own country to even notice.

The shame is on you.


Wetin dey ibo land? una get seaport? Una no get access to sea. how Una biafrau.d go look like? we are going to forfeit all Una landed properties. We are going to ensure no ibo leave Nigeria with anything. ibos would be worst losers . it is better we partner with the Hausa's than arrogant and ingrate set of people.

It is you Biafrans that drag other tribes cos you want more strength and numbers... The sit at home banner, I saw them listing delta, and akwa Ibo, Biafra is looking for trouble with all these verbal encroachment.
People dislike iboes cos of their bad reputation,they are scum to most people.
The mistake scums like you do is stereotyping and lumping Ipods with Igbos and Biafrans.
Modern and Intelligent Igbos/Biafrans know and acknowledge that dragging other non Igbo ethnic groups into Biafra will be detrimental to the purpose of Biafra.
Any group that wants to join Biafra will have to indicate their interest and define their destiny.
I repeat, Biafra is solely for Igbo people, other tribes are not part of Biafra.
Don't let your prejudice against Igbos render you senseless!

TheRealestGuy:
So between him and Asari Dokubo who do we believe?

Nigeria is a name that was coined by Mrs Lugard so my distinguished senator, you're urhobo first before Nigerian.

Nigeria is a scam that will surely disintegrate, it's a matter of time...

Besides there's the map of the Bight of Biafra, it's obvious that the south south states were in that map...

Everyone for himself though, Biafra will definitely flourish even without oil...although imo state and anambra have proven oil and gas reserves...
Individuals will flourish, but believe me,i see a Biafra plagued with in fighting and violence, I see a Biafra that will destroy itself cos of the greed and self serving nature of the Ibo man. Personally I don't want to be in that Biafra union, cos it will be filled with criminals and mediocres.

Then continue partnering with your Arewa overlords? Why are you incensed that Ndiigbo would not worship your Arewa Overlords with you? Why the bitterness in heart over Igbo desire to leave your colonial estate? Why are you out of wicked mind looking for people's hard earned investments to claim? Are you that lazy? Can't you see that your hate is burning away your brain cells?
How many of their investments in Denmark did Iceland have to forfeit for leaving Denmark?

This your hate will only consume you lots. Rather than
work on how to make your own failed country work, you and your ilks are more interested in making things hard for Biafrans in Biafra, out of hateful hearts.


Igbos are landlocked? So? So is Ethiopia, Botswana, Rwanda, etc. And they are all making better developmental strides than your British colonial estate.

It's the truth, a people without conscience and values will come to self destruct.

There will be no people conscious enough to develop and organise your Biafra, the greed will cause a lot of in fighting, lack of cooperation will make it hard for you Biafrans to rally round a single leader, and there will be rampant criminality cos we all know Iboes specialise in criminality, so who will want to live in such a state

Don't know why Ipob keep begging for unity with these people.Its pathetic because they aren't needed.



most of you here insulting the man are so daft or should I say lack comprehension of simple sentences. The man is simply saying that if Igbo want to include d other smaller tribes in their Biafra, they should consult with them and come to an agreement with them: not just drawing map up and down without due consultation and agreement with the other non Igbo speaking tribes that they are including in the map.
dis Biafra agitation don dey take away some pple's reasoning dat they tend to attack anyone dat refuse to accept deir own ideology. make una take am easy o! if una wan include other smaller tribes simply engage their elders in discussion that's all d man is saying and he is very right.

Yes,all igbos are criminals. Even the little babies are armed robbers!
No point responding and exchanging words with a self acclaimed tribalist and bigot. It is a waste of time!
I made my point about Urhobo not being a Biafran region...that is enough for me.

Thanks Distinguish Senator for speaking the mind of the Urhobo People. We believe in ONE RESTRUCTURED UNITED NIGERIA NATION!
NO TO AREWA REPUBLIC!
NO TO NIGER DELTA REPUBLIC!
NO TO BIAFRA REPUBLIC!
NO TO ODUDUWA REPUBLIC!
BUT, Senator Omo Agege must be up and doing, he needs to up his game of representation of the Urhobo People, its like the Urhobo are not represented.

Delta central senator, Ovie Omo-Agege has emphatically stated that Urhobo people are not part of Biafra. Omo-Agege in a statement released on Wednesday stated that the Urhobo nation is part of Nigeria and not interested in seceding or being part of Biafra.

The statement read;

With the deluge of concerns being raised by my people, it has become necessary to state with absolute clarity as the Senator for the Urhobo Nation in the 8th Senate of our Federal Republic of Nigeria that the Urhobo Nation has never been, is not and does not wish to be part of Biafra.

Whereas Article 1 (2) of the United Nations Charter recognises the “principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples”, this, obviously, does not grant any group the right to arbitrarily usurp the self-determination right of others. MASSOB, IPOB or whatever ethnic-leaning group may have the right to agitate for self-determination for the people they represent.

But that right would be encroaching and trampling severely and irresponsibly on the rights of other ethnic groups if, without consultations or any consensus whatsoever, they (MASSOB, IPOB or whatever ethnic-leaning group) decide to forcefully include others in their self-determination agenda. The Urhobo Nation totally rejects such unforgivable disrespect that touches on our very existence. Indeed, the unilateral inclusion of the Urhobo Nation in the flag or map of Biafra is an abhorrent, and condemnable threat to our people. It is an unacceptable attempt to suppress our own right to self-determination. We will never tolerate it and it must stop forthwith. We are cautioning against this trend of arbitrariness and disregard for the rights of others because we know that such a ‘conquest mentality’ has never promoted sustainable peace in human history.

The Urhobo Nation believes in the unity of the Nigeria Federation. Our preference, as a major strategic partner in our Federation, is to work hard to correct its imperfections, not to break it up into bits and pieces. I will continue to work with my great and highly respected colleagues of Ndigbo extraction and other parts of our country in the National Assembly to perfect our Union, not break it. In all, this is our simple and firm position: We are Urhobos and Nigerians, not Biafrans.

Yet we all stood as one to respect our fallen heroes! A cooperation that had since thrown bitter Igbophobic elements all over Nigeria off balance and we are still witnessing their reactions up till now. Even this thread is a product of this reaction,

Where as the Bakassi plight was lleft for Cross Rivers state to bear alone by supposedly SS brothers in Urhobo, who couldn't care less. Is there any love found amongst Okere Urhobos, Itsekiris and Ijaws? Is Warri not still a battle ground?
Where exactly is your unity.

No solidarity, no conscience, just greed.

We have stats for crime in Nigeria and SE ranks least in the South.

Better look inwards yourselves and let the Igbos be.

I don't blame you lots, I blame IPOB for this insults and embarrassment, they owe Ndiigbo apology for this.
