Thanks to all Igbos and their well wishers who complied by remembering and paying honour to our departed heroes. Both those who closed their businesses or didnt go to work and those who opened their businesses and went to work but mourned and payed homage to our heroes. I say to you all

But you enjoyed the sit at home or you're sad about it?

I enjoyed it.

I love that you like to self destruct even when there is the way of wisdom, you never fail to thread the path of arrogant foolishness.

Read my first post on this thread replying your fellow who mentioned my name. My position has never changed on Biafra. When your political leaders make a demand, then I will regard your demands as serious and worthwhile.

If your political leaders refuse to make a demand while you in turn fail to transition your beer parlour followership to political followership that can become a recognised leadership and make that demand that you care for, then you are just a circus amusing yourselves and entertaining others.

Let me shock you, since you are using a Nigerian brain to think of an Igbo matter. Nobody in the grassroots of the south east gives a damn about any political leader there, and the leaders themselves know it. Nobody hopes for these present crop of Igbo leadership who has been steeped in the Nigerian corruption are expected to be in leadership of a new country.

That's why Ipob, smart as they are have chosen to stay away from politics as governed by the present Nigerian laws. They know what they want to achieve and they are winning hearts every day.

The political leadership should make demands for their selfish gains, the masses are watching and recording the events.

[quote author=Throwback post=68022500]


Who are the them? Those who wanted your them to leave Kaduna were accused of threatening genocide.

The them that matters have not declared a public holiday even when it is in their power to do so as being done in the SW.

The them that matters have not tabled any request before the government of Nigeria.

Until the them that matter table a request, all you are doing so far is amusing yourselves.

Continue to amuse yourselves when you can become them that matter and turn your amusement to seriousness.


When Nigerians wanted independence from Britain, it was the constitutionally recognised leaders of the people who tabled the request.

As someone already opined, so you sat at home today and tomorrow you return to reality. If you choose to sit at home forever, how does that hurt me and my people?
mr man please you need sense,because you talk off point.

Very interesting. I have been indoors since morning here in Owerri reading "There was a country" by the late revered author China Achebe and intermittently checking the internet for updates on the sit at home. As I read all the details contained in this Wonderful book, it feels like I'm in 1967 witnessing the events taking place in Biafra. Igbos really suffered in the hands of these wicked people with absolute support from Britain and Russia. In page 227/228 of the book, a sentence really got me emotional and captured it all. It went thus "...we would have to adjust to the realities and consequences of a Nigeria that did not appeal to us any longer. Nigeria had not succeeded in crushing the spirit of the Igbo people, but it had left us indigent, stripped bare, and stranded in the wilderness." End of quote. Considering that these events took place almost fifty years ago yet the Igbos have remained resolute in their agitations for Biafra goes to show that it would never end unless it is granted to them. The problem is that Nigeria is being ruled by very dull people, because intelligent people would have either granted the Igbo people semi autonomy to have Biafra and still be under Nigeria union or grant all the six regions autonomy. We surely can't continue like this as a country because Nigeria will collapse under the weight of its numerous problems that keeps multiplying with each passing day.


Bro I greet you.. please how can I get "there was a country"??

We must not forget those who staked their lives to protect us from dying on the hands of evil people.

Biafra genocide was second only to the Holocaust.

Everybody sat at home yesterday being the public holiday. I will only take them serious if they can sit at home for a week.
Democracy day was one day, so why mocking them by asking for one week? Nigerian's, lets appreciate those people who do what we, cannot do out of fear.

If you and IPOB were not stupid, you would have turned your popular support in the SouthEast to political followership.

Until you have a political followership that elects Biafran apologists as leaders, who can then legitimately make demands as the constitutional leadership of the people it claims to represents, then you are just wasting time achieving nothing.

Even MASSOB did all of this self declared public holiday in its own time of relevance.

I hope you can point to 1 benefit it achieved then as a movement that did not have constitutional leadership?

The recognized and constitutional leadership of the SouthWest states at a time in history chose to make June 12 a legal public holiday because it had the constitutional power to do so. Some of the SW states still continue that tradition.

Do you ever hear the federal police or any Northerner or fellow Southerner claim that what has been legally declared by SW states is an anomaly when it already complies with the law?

Is it that your own governors do not have the intention while in political power, or those who have the intention do not have the political power?

If you were smart you would know the solution, but if you choose to remain stupid, you will continue to knock on a door that is ajar.

your brain is not working well/// Biafra is not Nigeria...We are not in Nigeria, we are in Biafra.. Get that into your skull. We cannot take part in your zoological politics

The sit at home is a good indicator that the people would vote massively in a referendum to exit Nigeria
