The Dangerous Drift Of The Biafran Struggle Towards Violence by Justcash(m): 11:31pm On Jun 29, 2021
Since after the civil war, the struggle for the attainment of Biafra has been relatively peaceful until recently. However, there has been a gradual but steady drift towards violence.

Massob was non-violent, and it’s leader, Uwazuruike was easily arrested and made to stay silent by Obasanjo’s government. At that point, Nigerians thought that the Biafran struggle had been effectively curbed. They were wrong because Massob gave birth to the Biafran Zionist Movement (BZM) and IPOB with a new and more international outlook.

While BZM was easily curtailed, IPOB persisted with an armed and more military defensive disposition. A new dimension was introduced to the Biafran struggle. Though, they have been accused of creating the unknown gunmen, no one has really brought forward any evidence to that effect.

Nnamdi Kanu has been arrested, and just like Uwazuruike, Nigerians are starting to feel that the struggle has ended. As we all know, the struggle is far from over. A new and more violent group may split from IPOB to wreak havoc. The Unknown Gunmen may finally be known.

Violence and political victimisation cannot quell a struggle. The Federal government will need to listen to the voice of reason and solve the problems that has bedevilled Nigeria for the past 50 years.

So, you think the Nigerian government has succeeded in ending the Biafran struggle? Hahahahahahaha…LWMD. You must be a poor child without an iota of idea about Nigeria’s history of militant groups.

Hahahahahahahha, you are indeed funny. Relax boy, Kanu is just a grain of rice in a huge rice factory. To prove this, in a few days, another IPOB leader will be announced and Kanu’s leadership will elapse like that of Uwazuruike. It could be an Ikonso from IPOB. This time, he will live, fight and die in the dot for another IPOB member to take over.

I enjoy your pictures and mockery though lol. Saving the pictures.

I listened to Kanu a few times and stopped because I noticed that even with his intelligence that he had no roadmap. This is why I believe that putting him out of circulation may help IPOB raise a more strategic leadership. The guy has done extremely well, so let's see how organized his movement is. I agree with you that someone smarter may just step into his shoes and they'll use him as rallying point. What is obvious is that the guy created massive awareness among natives. However, his error is in the belief that Nigerians are ready for freedom. As far as I can see, most Nigerian groups are comfortable with slavery, debar Igbo and perhaps Akwa Ibom area due to their proximity to Igbo. Yoruba prefer crumbs from Fulani table while Ijaw would rather be security men for the pipelines channeling their wealth to the north. In essence, Kanu is wrong with his outlook of hoping for freedom for people who love their chains. This is why I said that he is more qualified to be a good major than a general. He is good tactically but sucks strategically.
