Couple of friends came over today

We discussed Independence and Nigeria as a whole , we were able to conclude that the problem Nigeria is facing is as a result of the 1966 Ibo coup, Nnamdi Azikwe was the president , Ibo man, but Ibo boys in the army just had to carry out a coup because Sultan or was it Emir was in power for a few days


You don't have to agree with me , but i know this is cause and effect

I don't want to go down history. I'm more worried about what Nnamdi Kanu should have done with his mammoth supporters, to gain political influence to turn the country around, instead of polishing the brass on the Titanic by fighting a lost war of secession. No con3 wants to break, eg India vs Kashmir, Catalona 'vs Spain etc

Tripleoluwa:
Exactly 57 years ago, Nigeria gained Independence from the British Colonia rule. But the independence was short because the nation was plunged into civil war.

Now, Nnamdi Kanu led IPOB group is/was trying to walk us down the same road again. Although there are legitimate concerns, but IPO group should have been politically calculative. What do I mean? Follow me...

Nnamdi Kanu had/have ignited a conflagration, which got the loyalty of common people in the South East. No matter the eye one wants to use to look at this issue, absence of governments(state and Fg) is the main incendiary causing all of these concerns. Now, Nnamdi Kanus IPOB, with his mammoth supporters had/have a very great chance of politically controlling things, particularly in the coming election in Anambra state. In my opinion, if IPOB group should support a candidate in the Anambra governorship elections, they will surely succeed.

That way, the governor would be loyal to IPOB group, and every aspirants contesting for any political office from the South East, even into the federal assembly, would want the endorsement of IPOB cos victory would be sure. From there, elected officials would be held to account for good governance, transparency and probity, all by IPOB group. The kind of political influence of IPO would be so great that it would be contagious, in that other regions of the country would want to tow this path, to hijack political process from the few cabal in the country into the hands of youths.

Nnamdi Kanu would have created a storm that would bring the political class on their kneels, crouching for support from him. The way I see it, it would be easy by then to address all perceived marginalization, because IPOB would have great influence. Even an unknown party can
win an election, all Nnamdi Kanu needed to do was to make the pronouncement, finish...

Afonjas thinking about Igbos/Nnamdi Kanu 24/7. Igbos is their nightmare. Everything they do in this life revolve around Igbo...Igbos be very careful around these people because they derive energy from you.

EponOjuku:


That is because whenever Igbos are in trouble, only Yorubas come to their aid. During the Civil War, Soyinka went to prison cos of you.

Even today, how many of your elders have tackled Buratai, the military and Buhari over his treatment of Ipob? All your elders are interested in is in receiving money for Kola nut and gin from herdsmen and hausa soldiers. Yorùbá elders are defending you ungrateful lots and you're here spewing trash.

Was it not here on Nairaland that Obi of Onitsha spoke cautioning Igbos about Biafra and some worthless Osu outcasts were insulting the Obi?

Let the Igbos listen to the voices of the reasonable ones within Igboland and stop shouting them down as they've done over the years. Till then, they must be taught how to live in civilized societies.

If we give you Biafra now, within 3 years, you're gonna have a civil war within yourselves and we'll shut our borders. That's when you'll start crying that Yorubas hate Igbos and don't allow refugees from BIafra come into Yorubaland.

I knew you'll have nothing sensible to contribute. You're no different from your worthless ancestors who ran off dressed like Bobrisky while Banjo a Yoruba man was leading the only offensive in the Civil War. [/s]

Go away...

libertyhope2017:
Igbo Leaders Are The Most Useless Leaders Alive In The History Of Humanity. Seeing what is happening in the east, I cannot hold my words on how useless Igbo leaders are. Carrying out Hausa-Fulani agenda against their own people. This generation will never forget nor forgive these sets of Igbo leaders bought and controlled by Northern oligarchy.

Look at how you dragged your entire ancestors by the scrotum on a public forum?

May Amadioha use you for daily contribution.[/s]

One problem Yorubas have is they feel that Igbos must reason like, and emulate them.

I dont think that Yorubas realise that Igbo/Hausa/Yoruba are very different people who are only united by the accident of colonialism.

Nnamdi Kanu commanded mammoth crowds but it would have been useless for him to use his followership to seek political power, infact, doing that would have meant the end of IPOB

Nigeria is not structured in a way that helps someone like Kanu to achieve his aim of Biafra through a political process.


People in power do not want Nigeria to break up and even if IPOB managed to get piliticians who are sympathic into office, those people would just make noise about Biafra for a while before the trappings of office will make them forget about IPOB.
