Five Soldiers Feared Killed As Biafra Separatists Attack Oil Workers’ Quarters by Whiteangel1234: 7:46am On Jun 20, 2023
At least five soldiers guarding oil workers’ quarters in Bakassi Peninsula have been shot dead by suspected loyalists of Biafra separatists.

TOP MEDIA learnt that the incident which happened around 8 am on Friday, June 16, in Abana also left three oil workers injured.

Eye witnesses said the militants numbering five were on white garments.

Residents have fled the area following the attack.

This media platform reports that Biafrans are calling for a separate state of Biafra. They are also calling on the Nigerian government to release Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

The Biafra Nations League (BnL) had warned that there will not be peace in Bakassi, a peninsula controlled by both Nigeria and Cameroon until Kanu is released. They called on both countries to stop drilling of oil in the area.

IPOB is crossing their boundary, they should limit their nonsense to their region and not step an inch into SS.

This latest killing is a confirmation of IPOB as a terrorist that should be treated like one.

Now the FG should publish the allegations against Emefiele as one of financier of a terrorist group. Someone like him if found guilty should be made a scape goat so as to serve as a deterrent to future criminal.

As for MNK, IPOB are just increasing his jail terms

Being a hard man also has to do with being sensitive and smart. Nigerian Government and their soldiers are so insensitive and dumb; everything isn't about power and mustle, there comes at a point where mathematical IQ is required, these confrontations and risks are simply avoidable in a very soft method, but the dunces in their empty arrogance wouldn't be humble and sensible enough to do the needful.

I'm not the one to tell tell them what to do because they know it but are being prevented by nonprofitable arrogance, otherwise let them keep sacrificing their remaining few force men. But I would have disappeared if where a soldier and deployed to such assignment, not as a coward but on a very smart decision.

These people beating the drum of war should just take a look at the warring nations. If they were not born, or too young when the Nigerian civil war was fought, all they need do is look at the state Ukraine is today. Don't they know if war should start today, they'd feel the impact more than every other part of the country?

Oga this your useless narrative is already stale, say something new. For how long will you keep intimidating and threatening someone who have been through war with same war? We're not scared as we have been through hell already and until the last man standing or our goals achieved, you may continue making threats like this.

If you're imagining in your heart that anyone will wake up one day to beg you to release Nnamdi Kanu or do the right thing you're supposed to do, then you will keep dreaming till infinity.

These ewus have nothing to leverage against the FG that's why they are now crossing into the SS to attack oil facilities .


This is why they are against SS militants like Asari and Yompolo who will flush them out.

Besides Nigeria no longer has jurisdiction over Bakassi peninsula, control and ownership now belongs to Cameroon. So whatever happens there is left for the Cameroon gerdarmerie to tackle.

Those beating drum of war are those that killed hundreds of unarmed youths which is why we are here today.

Why not call peaceful Agitators for negotiation, instead you killled them and expect them to continue folding Their hands.


I warned about a day like this but your kind hailed government, asking them to kill more.


And don't think we're frightened by your threat for war, because I know this time it will reach you people too.


Tell your government to do the right, peace don't come from killing.

The difference between then and now was that ojukwu was not strategic in planning before execution. Only Kanu has done or is doing that.
Strategic planning includes;
1. Proving beyond reasonable doubts who the real aggressors are; by way of showing to whomever, how the government disregards the rule of law
2. Proving beyond reasonable doubts why old eastern Nigeria shouldn't participate in a glorified selection process, called election. Case study; Alhaji Rochas, umahi, Peter obi, etc
3. Adopting all forms of relationship/diplomacy by registering IPOB across the globe
4. Exploiting the loophole in bakassi by supporting Ambazonia to guard the coastal line ( this is the reason you hear of nija military presence in bakassi, when they don't have jurisdiction over bakassi, they feel threatened)
5. Educating the people through radio broadcast that you can plant any kind of food or rear any kind of animal in your village.
This is evident as you now see most villages in Igbo land cultivating sweet potato, cucumber, groundnut, ginger, rice etc
6. Kanu is the reason most easterners are investing home and in their numbers.
Kanu's statement goes "... I understand how difficult it is to convince an Igbo man to buy into your project, because they are a very stubborn group, who wouldn't want to follow any body sheepishly, but any day they see reasons to follow your project, they will embrace it.."
1967 war failed because Igbo speaking communities outside the so called south east were left at crossroads
7. Ojukwu fled the country, returned and contested a presidential election, there and then, his vision for biafra died by romancing with selective process of the amalgamated area. Kanu fled and returned, refused to accept or participate in any selective process of an amalgamated region, his vision is still very much alive.

I. Your simple mind now, you have made a very intelligent statement, the agitators in bakassi started since 29 may 2023, and you have decided who is responsible, where exactly is South south BTW? And who are you? South South? What is south south anyways?
