if you have visited niger republic and chad and see how underdeveloped they are, then you will understand why Nigerians don't want biafra to go. Igbo is the pillar holding Nigeria as giant of Africa

Am glad , you wrote "nigerians"...........as am certain, you meant ibo nigerians living outside iboland as it's obvious that those ibos are not crazy at the notion of dropping everything they owned, to return to their home region.

You are right about one thing though- Igbos are the pillars holding nigeria up to the outside world, as the "Joke of Africa".

T9ksy:





With the same vein, I make bold to assert that, a significant number of ibos living outside biafra have no desire to drop everything they have laboured for, to return to their ancestral homeland.

Am referring to the Delta ibos, northern or are they arewa ibos, ibo lagosians, 3rd generations ibos born and bred in the "brown roof republic" ati bebelo. These are the potential biafra saboteurs.

However, as ibos are surreptitiously climbing their trees beyond its leaves, when biafra is eventually actualised, anyone in the entire yorubaland who can't pronounce "toro" (3pence) will be dumped at upper ewka bridge, irrespective of where his forefathers originated from in biafra.

TripleOh7:
That's what baffles me the most.

A complete stranger dies for the same ideology people like Ojukwu and Kanu, foremost promoters of the ideology, refused to die for.

Ojukwu had the opportunity to sacrifice his life for this ideology, and he fled to Ivory Coast.

Kanu had the same opportunity, but does at the first sign of trouble, first to Ghana, then to Israel.

I hope the next proponent of this ideology will be willing to last down his life and not be a coward.

@ bolded............................Abi o jare!!!!

After leading his own people on a "chicken run"promising them that even the grass of biafra will rise up and fight their cause, ojukwu fled in the middle of the night when his own life became, obviously at stake.

Ojukwu suffered no loss for his rebellion; physically or financially. He even took his favourite merc with him into exile- in search of peace
