Stop feeding the trolls.

What about 27 billion for militants?

Only truth

So you mean Biafra = Ojukwu? The money is for Ojukwus medical treatment?

That doesnt sound right

Ojukwu is a legend, the legend of a people and their struggle which Biafra stands for.
He epitomizes Biafra, bar none.

Having said that, I repeat, this money is ONLY A TOKEN - A DEMONSTRATION OF GOOD FAITH towards the Igbo.

Someone will have to pay for Ojukwu's medical bills. We (Ndigbo) can do it; but it presents the federal govt of Jonathan with an opportunity to begin the process of reconciliation.

If you're sacked from work and that sack becomes nullified, won't you get paid in full?

Is 1.5 billion enough to pay the full compensation for the former Nigeria soldiers turned Biafrans with the current pay scale?

Enough of this bullshit.

If you want to complain, complain about the 27 billion for militants not 1.5 billion to former Nigerian soldiers.

It is shameful to see a Itsekiris Clinging to the Yorubas as if his life depends on it. Hope wen the Itsekris finally join the yorubas as Nigeria splits, that its utopia

Those were random examples!!! I did not insult anyone!

Chyz*:

Ex-federal nigerian soldiers were compensated.Stop speaking out your azz, dumb-shyt. smh.
Including the families that died in the Lagos bomb, Ore and the Mid-west How much were they compensated with

Onlytruth:

@jason123 -Mr_southern_Nigerian_unity_provided_Igbo_is_serving_Yoruba/Itshekiri,

Read what I said about the price for peace. I don't have time for fools.

If you think for once in your life, maybe you will get it.

As for you, you cannot for ONCE in your "know it all mind" think out of the box in fairness, spirit and truth. All that is in your mind is paranoia and anxiety. Bed belle is not a good thing.

Simple answer what I stated with insulting since I have not insulted anyone. Even for southern unity to be acheved, there needs to be fairness. You cannot favour some people over others. That is not how life is. The Whole country including individual regions, fought a war. How come you support the compensation of Biafrans without compensating others?? Look, I am not here to start this your yoruba vs igbo shit, simply counter my points or move on!

@jason,

I cannot break it down any further for you.
My replies here are for some of my Igbo brothers who feel insulted by the money. I had to explain to them that it is only a mere token of good will.

I told you I don't waste my time.  cool

Guy, don't try to act naive or stupi.d with me. I know you know what I mean. Even after the invasion, the administrator of the Mw region was an Igbo man, what happened to a Benin man?? What about Uhrobo and co??

My Edo friends always complain about this igbo administrator of the Mw. Heard this line so many times. The fact is Edo people don't like igbos and believe it or not we can live with dat. And as for the MW, IT IS NEITHER HERE OR THEIR 'talking about the main deltans'

A significant officers and men of [i]Midwestern [/i]origin-Delta-Igbos fought on the side of the Biafran Army. Col. Mike Ndukwe Okweuechime, to start with was the Chief of Linguistics, Defence headquarters, Biafran Army till the end of the civil war on January 12, 1970. Navy Commander Frank Anukwu from Ika was in charge of Biafran Navy till the end of the war. Brigadier Nwawo from Aniocha North was General Officer who commanded 4 Command (Special) Division of Biafran Army. Col. Joe Achuzie from Oshimili South was General Officer Commanding (GOC) 16 division.

Late Col. B.S.A. Nwajei from Oshimili North was at a time, the Commander 14 division. Col. Ochei from Oshimili South was Commandant of School of Infantry Biafran Army. Col. Morah and Col. Henry Igboba from Aniocha North and Oshimili North, respectively fought gallantly for the survicval of Igbo people during the war. Late Major Albert Okonkwo from Oshimili North was the Administrator of the defunct Republic of Biafra Mr. George Nwanze from Oshimili North was the secretary to Odumegwu Ojukwu, Head of State defunct Republic of Biafra, to mention but a few. It is important to mention that the above top military Officers and highly respected men of substance from the then Midwestern region, did not fight as mercenaries. I want to state that as a matter of historical fact, I too fought gallantly on the side of Biafra. In fact, I came back from my studies in oversea and was confronted with the war, as Igbo people were been slaughtered all across the North, we had to ran from Jos to Ibusa where I joined Force with the Biafran Army.

Most importantly, it should not be forgotten that late Chukwuma Nzeogwu of Okpanam in Oshimili North died at Oboleke fighting on the side of Biafran Army.

23million or so for inauguration, 1.5 billion for nothing . . . .some few millions for militants. All this while the nation is suffering.
GEJ nd his putrid air.


@Honerico
Thanks but i think its your women that are lucky, not my brothers because most of them got married as a V. just that me too raunchy to toll their line Tongue and they never did any "girlfriend" stuffs until they were ready to settle down. (Just a tip for you to know how "highly mannered" it was in the family).

We grew up in Lagos (at least from the mid siblings downward) so we are more used to the Yorubas than other tribes including my own bini people.

All in all, if Nigeria divides, the Binis and the yorubas can't be divided, we have alot in common that nothing can come between!
