My Opinion About Biafra by richkid1: 9:46am On Jul 02, 2017
So why has FG ignored Nnamdi Kalu so far? I can hazard some reasons. 1. They have put him on self-destruct. They made him and evaluated him and now it is time to let him destroy himself. 2. They know his message, conceit and indiscretion will make him into Chinua Achebe's eneke who ate his fill and challenged his chi to a fight. Now he is up against the entire Igbo political and economic structure. He is up against every Igbo investor with money and property outside Igbo land. FG will only be a spectator. He expects to win with the crowd that throng his illicit rallies. The think tank are moving away from him. 3. They want everyone to see him for what he is. When the eventually pick him up, UNLIKE BEFORE, many will say, "just as well". 4. The freedom they give him makes him and his men bolder and makes them box themselves into situations that Igbo people will have to make the decision FOR or AGAINST. A call for A DAY OF RAGE when people will burn their International Passports and INEC voter cards is an acid test. People who burn one passport and retain another are fraud. People who burn Nigerian passport and retain British passport are fraud (they should tie their destinies to the Biafra passports ONLY!). In addition, they should burn their certificates obtained in Nigeria, their C of O outside Igbo land, their company registration documents, their pension documents, and indeed anything that ties them to the zoo. FG knows the madness is short lived. Already, Anambra people are calling his bluff. It is only a matter of time before this uprising is neutralized. Except of course if he makes a 360. But can he? His mind is locked on leading the Jews out of Egypt and into the synagogues in the promised land. And his supporters are on Facebook swearing, cursing, and picketing anybody who as much as asks a question. They don't want to discuss, reason, persuade and appeal. They just threaten and claim monopoly of a certain ChukwuOkike who is not only Igbo-customized, but favours Igbo people over and above all other ethnicities. Nobody can be a chichidoodo. The bird who hates shit but thrives on maggots. FG knows and ignores. Anambra people once rejected even Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu. Don't forget

Childish thinking.

This is the type of unfortunate thinking that has bedevilled Nigeria since 1967. Confront the Biafran question with facts and I hear is unreasonable fear mongering and subtle threats from One Nigeria apologists.

Im not sure that IPOB or Nnamdi Kanu has ever called for anyone to burn their passports. Not everything flying around the internet is true. What I know is that IPOB has called for is a boycott of the elections until the Nigerian government decides on a referendum. Election boycott is legal and referendum is recognised the world over. A referendum was conducted in Nigeria in 1961, so it is not new.

The readon why Nnandi Kanu is resonating for his people is because he stands self determination, something that is very important to Igbos. Nnamdi Kanu isnt the problem, anyone who thinks so has missed the point. The point is 'is Nigeria a workable entity?'

If Kanu is no more today, will that end the feeling of marginalisation felt by many? Will it give Nigeria unity? Will it make Nigerians love themselves? Will it heal ethnic divides? Will it stop the routine killing of Igbos in.the North? Will Herdsmen atracks stop? Will Igbos and many of the minorities who have been exploited for years have a sense of belonging in Nigeria?

These questions will not go away, wether Kanu self destructs or not and Nigeria will not be a better place.

My own opinion on Biafra is that since we were gathared together by the British in a 'colonial house' called Nigeria, anyone who complains that the place has become too stuffy should be given the keys to door so they can leave to get some air.

Nigeria has turned out to be a disasterous faliure so if anyone feels they can do better on their own, they should be allowed to do so.

No one became Nigerian out of free choice, it was imposed on us all. It is only right that we do not carry on with that imposition but allow those who seek a separate destiny to go.

you don't have to be so insulting when making a point, like i had said earlier its my opinion and i am entitled to it.
Re: My Opinion About Biafra by EzeUche(m): 2:13pm On Jul 02, 2017
Nigeria is a failed state.

Can you counter Nnamdi Kanu's narrative?

Stop worrying about Biafra when Nigeria is a land of misery.
