Why Do The Rest Of Nigerians Hate Biafra So Much by AlexBells(m): 4:50pm On Mar 09, 2021
There is something that I'm yet to get, there is so much hate for Biafra, I think the hate for Biafra is bigger than the phobia for Igbo Dominion, I had spoken to a lot of non Igbos and whenever the name Biafra is mentioned there is this obvious compulsion, I know people had this phobia about Igbo but outsiders feel better if I tell them, I'm Igbo than I'm Biafran.

Can any non Biafran tell me in plain terms why so much hate for a country which only existed for three years, becuase I don't get the hate, it is not like there is any tribe that loves Nigeria that much, Biafra did not even threaten any tribe but the cooperate existence of Nigeria so why the irrational fear of Biafra.

Biafra to us, whether it becomes a sovereign state again or not we live in Biafra, I live in Enugu Nigeria the capital of Biafra and everyday I work out I see Biafran flag hanging in the most Bizarre of places like on top of high tension wire, seriously I never see Nigeria flag anywhere apart from banks, or national institutions.

But we see Biafra insignia everywhere, from primary school walls to street arts, you will see Biafra, the flags are everywhere, place it is usually hanged are in the riskiest of places, we live in Biafra and nothing dangerous about it, maybe this part of Nigeria is Biafra then why are others, sceptical about Biafra.

Op, Nigerians hate Biafra because Biafra represents an attempt by a few greedy, misguided Igbos to steal and corner the nation's oil and gas resources under the guise of 'self determination'.

That is why they are so desperate to rope in the delta where the oil and gas deposits are located, into their criminal theft scheme. Of course the delta want no part of such deals.

Plus of course Nigeria will not allow that daylight robbery to happen, so 'Biafra' remains a silly pipedream peddled by Igbo school dropouts led by chief dropout, Kanu.

YES. In fact Nigeria will arrange for flights and buses to convey all 30 million Igbos residing in other parts of Nigeria back to the east in mass deportations.

Just don't claim the delta as yours, and we'll be glad to see the back of you.

I wished it was possible and we can get a deal, to relocate all the oil in Biafra to Arewa and Oduduwa, and Niger Delta can keep theirs too, we can work a deal to pump the gas to Arewa but we want a same country where we can live peacefully and attain our God given potential, without threat.

But northerners outnumber Boko thugs and foreign fulani herdsmen and you have not defeated them.

Thousands are being killed and kidnapped daily from Sokoto to Benue and Bornu to Niger.

Lies upon lies, upon lies a typical nigga-arean can never get tired of using lies and propaganda to change the narrative especially, when it comes to defending that evil cage created by a white man.

For the records, nigga-area never defeated biafra rather, it was the British that defeated biafra during that evil war.

We don't even mind being like Hong Kong in China...as long we are free to do our thing.

For example we can build our own standard gauge rail, unlike the one the FG is offering the SE, while the SW and the north has the modern system.
