@ Sapele. I have waited all this while for you to bring out one link even a fraction of a link to prove your assertions about Ndigbo working against the creation of Anioma state and you kept perambulating from one allegation to another. Why not be honest on this thread and follow the examples of others who have apologized for their mistakes on this same thread ; eg Dede you demanded a concession from and he gave it, etc. Do you prefer to insist on your lies against Ndigbo like many others or set a good example for them to follow? I leave you with this latin quote. Ei incumbit probatio qui dicit, non qui negat (the burden of proof rests on who asserts, not on who denies). |

houvest: I actually think we are violently agreeing, the article was poorly researched. Please see the timing of your post and mine, the apology you seek was tendered long ago. I can't accuse an entire race, that would be imprudent just as it was sheer folly for the poster to claim Igbo created an entire geo political zone, how can this be possible when they are still struggling to create 1 state?

Certain views in that historical account are contradictorily confusing. You stated that: However, the British ex-colonialists helped the North in building a national coalition to prevent the actualisation of Biafra. The Eastern minorities pulled out of Biafra when General Gowon created the 12 states and gave them Rivers State and South Eastern State. It became possible for the federal side to win the war with a blockade of the seaboards which were home to the minorities. When the war ended, relations between the Igbo and those who fought them during the war remained suspicious. Particularly the West and the Eastern minorities probably felt that the recovery of the Igbo would affront the gains they made while the Igbo were absent from the system. The minorities appeared to have discovered some gain in siding with the North or West to protect their new- found political space. And this suggests that the creation of the south-south was a weapon designed by the non-igbos against the igbos but this assertion: The South-South idea was, therefore, a deliberate gambit hatched by the Igbo intelligentsia to give the Southern minorities their own turf in order to reduce the national gang-up against the Igbo. With their own home zone, they would be able to project their own interests rather than being the cat’s paw of Igbo rivals from the North or West. Flies in the face of what was previously said... |

This comment: It was also due to the efforts of another group of Igbo intelligentsia led by retired Commodore Okoh Ebitu Ukiwe that led General Sani Abacha to create Bayelsa and Ebonyi states on October 1, 1996 , while also approving the geo-political zones, even though it is not (yet) in the Constitution as the Igbo recommended. Suggests that if the south-south were excised from the south-east, how does this make the south-east better off? The autonomy of the south-south implies attrition between the south-south and south-east irrespective of the deals and agreements that may have taken place behind the scenes... |
