Biafra:Confusion as Ahmed Gusau, 'betrays' The North, Backs Nnamdi Kanu, by KEVIND: 6:35am On Jul 10, 2017
Alhaji Ahmed Gusau has said the subversive activities of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, will be met with an appropriate response soon.
He stated this in his article to our newsroom titled 'Kanu & co-travelers to meet their Waterloo soon'
He metaphorically compared Kanu and his co-travelers as drowning men who are only clutching the reed on the river bank to save their lives which he said will no longer work having exceeded all known tolerant limits.
Further in the article, he 'advised' Kanu to quickly declare the Republic of Biafra since he has so many supporters in the five Igbo-speaking states of the south-east.
This, he said, will facilitate the Republic of Biafra.
He said: 'I wonder what has been holding him back to declare his Biafra Republic since he enjoys and have the backing of the Igbos in the region he comes from. If Ojukwu did who was then not his age, what is restraining him to openly declare the secession he has been agitating for. Soon we will answer him, whether he renounces now or not, it does not make any difference because he must pay for his subversive activities no matter whose ox is gored.'', he threatened.
Read the full article below:
''We here in the far north love peace and peaceful co-existence with other ethnic nationalities in Nigeria. It was only recently that a few misguided and socially undesirable elements amongst us hiding under Islam which preaches peace to unleash terror on Muslims and non-Muslims alike calling attention to Boko Haram's activities to actualize a sovereign Islamic State within Nigeria. So far this has been met with a violent response from the Nigerian military.
The war has been difficult to fight because it is an insurgency. The Boko Haram insurgents are not a regular army. They infiltrate the civil populace and the Nigerian military can not be killing its own people while prosecuting the ongoing war with the insurgents. Be that as it may, we used to sleep not only with one eye open but with two eyes open which is now a thing of the past since the Boko Haram has been effectively degraded by the superior firepower of the Nigerian military. This is what the US which is reckoned to be the most powerful country in the world is finding difficult to do in countries like Afghanistan and Somalia. The Nigerian military has been able to effectively combat the insurgency in the northeast.
I had to digress in this piece because I often read on the pages of Facebook what Kanu's Facebook soldiers always say that the Nigerian military does not have the capability to confront Nnamdi Kanu's soldiers in the event of a full-blown war with Nigeria.
Since they are of that view, that is the surest way to quickly realise Biafra. I will advise Nnamdi Kanu to capitalise on the purported weakness of the Nigerian military and declare the Republic of Biafra and use the soldiers he is training in the 'USA and Israel' to overrun Nigeria.
I wonder what has been holding him back to declare his Biafra Republic since he enjoys and have the backing of the Igbos in the region he comes from. If Ojukwu did who was then not his age, what is restraining him from openly declaring the secession he has been agitating for. Soon we will answer him, whether he renounces now or not, it does not make any difference because he must pay for his subversive activities no matter whose ox is gored.
Kanu should as a matter of urgency declare the Republic of Biafra in any of the Igbo-speaking enclaves of his choice to speedily actualize his Biafra to allow peace reign in Nigeria when he succeeds.
Of course, he says, he is a demigod and the Supreme Lord of the Igbos for he has been so variously addressed by his followers so much so that he now runs a parallel government in Nigeria.
Kanu for sure is doomed and can never extricate himself from his culpable acts whether he renounces Biafra now or not. We will continue to keep a track record of his activities, his backers, his sponsors in this perilous journey together with his provocative statements until the Rubicon is crossed.
There is no one single Nigerian leader he has not insulted and under normal condition, can he insult any of his mates or even a child and expect the child to swallow the insult? Certainly not. We want to hear more from him before he is finally crushed once and for all. It is better for him to remain in the south-east where he is presently an overlord because leaving that region for any other part of Nigeria will be too risky for him because of the insults he has heaped on every region. I wonder where his strength lies. We shall soon see when it comes to the crunch. We will act soon, we will respond soon violently and overwhelmingly for the freedom he seemingly enjoys now is nothing but a bait and Greek gift.
We will do this when all is set for the final battle to destroy all forces of evil which he and co-travelers represent. Our radar is on his sponsors who we know one by one and we want to identify more of them.
The night of wonder to free Nigeria from the deadly grip of these demons has set sail and it will be executed soon when it berths like a ship. Certainly, Kanu cannot escape the devouring wrath and division which his hate speech has caused Nigeria. Soon it will be met with a violent and overwhelming response.

that deluded albino and his hapless miscreant followers have proven themselves weaklings. imagine them begging for a referendum. if truly they know what they are agitating for. why haven't we seen igbos vacating the north and other region in droves. empty chest beaters. you are political failures who can't compete in Nigeria and you running away to form another failed nation. success must be earned legitimately, just as the igbos didn't need to threaten biafra when the earned success in business in this country because that is their strong point. politics is their weakest point and thus have failed many times. yet I wonder if such failures won't exist in their so called biafra. I thank God fellow igbos like me are realizing this fact and fighting it everywhere we see it. Kanu will not drag us into penury and economic suicide. we will restructure this country and fight like everyone else to have a federal presence. if we could conquer Nigeria economically, we the new blood will find ways to do same politically. biafra is dead

There was referendum in the UK and no shot was fired, Catalonia is also asking for a referendum.

To some p!gs a call for referendum is synonymous to war.

Someone should inform this idiot that

1) Igbos also exist in the SS and Benue axis. Therefore, every Igbo community will go alongside the ones in the SE

2) The minorities will voice out their choice between Nigeria and Biafra through a referendum of which we are so sure that they will vote for Biafra

3) In the eventuality of Biafra arising, the Northern Christians will never accept to be part of the demonic Caliphate called Arewa.

4) IPOB have its own calendar and therefore can't be pushed to do things at a different time

5) Biafrans await his hopeless response and promise a greater venom against his plans.

6) If the fools don't keep to their October 1st deadline, they shall forever be called bloody cowards.

Igbos will vacate the North to go where? Have they been granted Biafra? The same people asking Igbos to leave the North are ones who are fighting tooth and nail that Biafra will not be. That is not fair at all. They should ask Igbos to go when Biafra is declared, not while we are still all in Nigeria.

You better forget restructuring the same way you want Kanu to forget Biafra. The same North that are against Biafra are against restructuring. To the Northerner, there is little difference between restructuring and Biafra.

you have asked a good question, what stops the IPOB movement from conducting an internal referendum to determine who and who constitutes this biafra. such that when asked to leave they know where to go to. how come people are fighting for a nation whose members are not clearly spelt out via legitimate means. when you say being in Nigeria. you are a Nigerian because you say you are one. the moment you call yourself biafra then you must back that with resolve which in this case is, you must denounce Nigerian citizenship, relocate to biafra, boycott Nigerian affairs and start the process for self determination via normal means. which one has Kanu and his people done. many igbos like yours truly are simply watching the drama online and on the streets while we face our businesses all over Nigeria. nevertheless no true igbo man will wish biafra for himself because it is a terrible solution to our issues. we can't shoot ourselves in the foot because we can't compete politically. yet I tell you a secret even if an igbo man becomes president for the next ten years, he will do nothing for igbo land just as Jonathan did nothing for his region. the South east and south south aren't good in politics and that's the fact of the matter. this failure won't change just because we now have an economically disadvantaged homogenous region called biafra. the very concept spell a bad omen for ndi-igbo and must be fought at all levels. we must change our mentality by developing our regions and this is achieved via restructuring. the north have no say I. that because it's not only applicable to the igbos. there are many other tribes who favour that idea. thus it's a more noble cause to fight and die for. rather than a biafra which offers no advantages to the common igbo man nor his strengths in general

You and others like you better face reality. Less than 3 months ago, the entire Igbo land shut down to show they are solidly behind Biafra. This they did willingly. Already, IPOB has said that the area it considers Biafra is the old Eastern Region plus Delta state. This is where they want the referendum conducted. All the ethnic groups can then vote to carry on with Nigeria or opt out as Biafra. The ones vote to go become Biafra. Denouncing Nigerian citizenship and returning home is not what will bring Biafra. Anyone who does this will just be leaving one part of Nigeria to return to another part of part of Nigeria, the situation has not changed.

What Biafra represents for me is freedom. Freedom to know that I no longer have to be fighting with a Northerner or a Yoruba man to decide what is best for me and Igbo land with the co-operation of the minorities who are comfortable with us. That sort of freedom to decide ones destiny is worth more than all the Igbo investment in Nigeria.

Igbos will be great, but they need to get out of the hopeless disaster called Nigeria first.
