sumtyms a post can tell how myopic or presbyopic a persons mind is....

if d Igbos wud nid visas to enter into Nigeria, won't we Nigerians also nid visas to enter Igbos Biafra??


its rili ironic...... Nigeria and Nigerians saliently has over d years gesturized / non verbally shown not to like or trust d Igbos...

y is letting them go now a problem??

pryme:


You also forget kanu with Dictatorship tendencies will run biafra like he owns it, if biafra is declared the will be a reset button on land and properties inside biafra, the biafrans now will be at the mercy of their leaders. I doubt there will be elections.

igbodefender:
Thanks for the praise, but we must say KANU has his strong points and we would like to see him contest politics (within Nigeria) to help Ndigbo however he can.

bantudra:
you ipobians should know that the obi of onitcha can summon the nigerian army anyday to destroy ipob..


keep on playing stvpid...

the igbos have traditional leaders....

the obi of onitcha is practicaly the king of igbos...

keep on provoking him...

Malawian:

Igbo people can "de-god" and remove our dieties, is it ordinary kings will be our issue? There is an Igbo mass movement taking roots now, keep hiding your heads in the sand.

bantudra:


sooo,you will just sweep your traditional leaders aside for cownunu....

stvpid idea....

igbodefender:
So, Igbos should lose a market of 170 million that they dominate? What other people are praying for we should throw away?

Ask those screaming "Ndigbo lata ulor" what finances and infrastructure they have on ground to support the any returnees. None. So, if South East Igbos are summoned back to a new country, how would they get jobs? Or would they just be abandoned to sleep on the streets?

Better to clamour for restructuring and Igbo presidency in Nigeria. Self determination is a right, but you don't use up all your options at once. If there is chance for restructuring, better treatment, you use it before you start saying Igbos should throw away a 170 million strong market. O diro mma.

Don't you know it is more competitive to sell Aba made shoes and Innoson vehicles to Lagos and Abuja without paying expensive tariffs? Ndigbo, ka anyi lo kwanu ifa elo.

You are getting praise from The Addidas Ambassadors and you are lapping it up ??

Come and Kneel down let me pray for you. Oya isi gi alacha go mmanu.

igbodefender:
Ndi b'anyi, are you ready for the inevitable spike in crime and political tensions that will result if you call back South East Igbos outside to a new 'independent' country and they get stranded?

They will accuse you of political 419. What will you say to them? Sorry? They try to go back to see if they can reclaim their investment somewhere in Nigeria and the Nigerian border guards wouldn't even let them cross Head Bridge Onitsha. Will you stop them from coming to your house in crowds to ask you why you took away everything they own?

The Biafra Ojukwu headed was a proud Biafra, not a landlocked Biafra. Ojukwu said there should be Biafra of the mind. Why not channel your energy to our governors to see that they perform at their very very best? Igbos have not gotten one tenth of the development we can get from our governors. Mbanu!

preciousuweh:
I have a question for you OP. won't Biafra be a west African country? won't it be one of the ECOWAS state or country?. so why will dey need visa to travel to Lagos or Nigeria as a whole because the last time I checked one of the aim of ECOWAS is to ensure free movement of people between it member nation without the use of Visa. so I don't understand where this issue of visa comes in except Biafra won't be a member of ECOWAS.

bonnylight003:


ignorant is bad.. make your research well on a topic.

Dedetwo:


Is Biafra not going to be part of ECOWAS?

Unimaginable123:
just shut d hell up

igbodefender:
No cogent argument? Just 'shut up'? That's all you have to say? Ok, bye bye.

bantudra:


and how many nigerians have the interest to go to the east..?...

realy not many.....

you think i realy want to go to the east after you called me an animal??...

MrHowto:



It will take Biafra 50 years before accepted into ECOWAS. Nigeria will teach them lesson.

jollymizzle:
lmao noting peson no go hear for nairaland, even the US the biggest economy in the world can't do without trade science. Chai the world is talking about global economy you talking about circuit economy. Your case go worse pass North Korea

Unimaginable123:
yea. That's all u deserve

MrHowto:



Biafra is not under ECOWAS. So it require Visa into Nigeria.

igbodefender:
The Biafra being proposed by the Northern youths and being lapped up presently cuts out the Igbo oil producing areas in the South South. A rump form of Ojukwu's Grand Biafra. It would be surrounded by a mighty vindictive Nigeria willing to cut out its pound of flesh. It will have no seaports to export its oil, Innoson cars, Aba made shoes and other products. It will depend on Nigeria ( imagine that) for trade! Mbanu!

MayorofLagos:
I strongly believe some parts of SS will go into the Biafran union with Ibos.

I read Ekweremadu's speech about why Biafra must be rejected. One of the unknown factor in his thoughts is the direction of SS.

Im truly surprised that even a very highly placed and politically accomplished person like Ekweremadu could not find a bridge path across which to build alliance with ethnicities in his neighbourhood. Thats appalling! Ekweremadu has been deputy Senate Leader for the third consecutive time and been in Senate since 2003, yet he lacks negotiating skills to connect and cement binding relationships with the people in SS. Maybe not all...but at least two with resource and access to sea and an international border.

The coalition with Jonathan was fruitful, it should have a followup and expansion agenda for regional understanding and growth, as well political and military cooperation.

The reason your alarm will ring fears and change atittude about Biafra is because Biafran leaders are politically inept. This is why Kanu is winning. He is raw, politically incorrect, a rebel to the conservative Nigeria and offers the Biafrans a relief of fresh air from under the suffocation.

igbodefender:
You only said 'shut up' because you really have no arguement. In any case, well done.

igbodefender:
IPOB should join the restructuring movement within Nigeria. It can form a political party banking on Nnamdi Kanu's popularity and contest in 2019.

ProWalker:



You will go if the preponderance of the decision want you to go, your own single vote will be too inconsequential. You should start planning ahead really for such eventuality.

Deedeedee3:

Lols! I love this. Nigeria will also not exist, you know that right?

soulpeppersoup:
So what stops Biafra from joining ECOWAS and what will take a Biafran to Nigeria in the first place if not tourism

GoroTango:
The ECOWAS treaty states that no new member states can be admitted to the community except by the unanimous agreement of all current member states. This means that even a small member state like Togo or Gambia can permanently veto the admission of Biafra into the community, talk less of Nigeria that pays the lion share of ECOWAS bills

seunmsg:
We won't even give them visa. They should remain in their country if biafra is achieved. We don't want anything to do with them ever again if they succeed in breaking up this country.

nextprince:
Yes, I said it and I will say it again.
Are you expecting to be a non Nigerian and still be walking the streets of Nigeria without relevant documents?
You must be getting it twisted.

igbodefender:
Milions may not be allowed back in. The 'Nigerian' side would want revenge, and the way they will exact it is to limit migration and other frustrating tidbits. Suddenly, going to Lagos to sell gala or laptops becomes something you have to go to an embassy for. We are helping Nnamdi Kanu by pointing this out now. Nothing is so saddening as when your own people accuse you of misleading them.

attackgat:
Under Nigerian law, being born in any Nigerian territory guaratees you automatic Nigerian citizenship. An Igbo like me who was born in the North will always be entitled to Nigerian citizenship (not that I want anyway) even Igbo land becomes Biafra

However, needing visa to go to Nigeria from Biafra is a small price to pay for freedom
