Honestly, i don't know the brand of weed these Igbos are smoking. I have never seen them popping their veins against France and other nations that supported biafra. By the way, na dem ibos dey first start trouble, na so e dey sweet dem as dem dey crush niger delta agitation for independence to keep Nigeria as one under Aguiyi Ironsi. You do niger delta people, they don move on but when Nigeria do you, you never wan get sense to move on, yeye pipu.
What has Fredrick forseth story got to do with IPOB? lies and propaganda has been a way of life to any evil supporter in nigeria especially yorubas.

I really don't know the brand of weed you Igbo haters do smoke. You said Kaduna Nzeogwu's led coup is Igbo coup, that is what you meant when you said "igbos dey first start trouble".

Now you are saying that Igbos has no link with niger delta people (when we all know that Nzeogwu is from the socalled niger delta) If that is the case, why do you lots refer to Nzeogwu's led coup as Igbo coup?

Nzeogwu is Anioma. Anioma are Igbos.

If an Akoko-Edo man from Benin, or an Ilaje man from Delta also plotted/led a coup with lots of their fellow yorubas actors, it will rightly be called a Yoruba coup and not a Niger Delta or South South coup.

Only in Nigeria you hear people call themselves South South.
Why this writer above me didnt ask the reason North who created you down South South, refused to give themselves North North?
Asari Dokubo boy

If the Europeans did not come and create north west and east and ignored the Niger Delta that fought them against their invasion you would never have dreamt of starting a war as the Niger Delta was the power house before the European invasion

Lol.

Also US Intel:
France has directly or indirectly arranged the supply of at least half of Biafra's military imports. Much of the rest comes directly from private arms dealers.

Can you compare this with the vast arms and ammunition thst Britain gave Nigeria?

Can you compare this to the are superiority Russian planes accorded Nigeria?

Can you compare this to British warships that blockaded Biafra?

All that tipped the balance for Nigeria to win. Had all countries stayed neutral in the war, Nigeria had no chance of winning

My point is that ammunitions were supplied on both side, unlike your claim about the Federal Military Gov of Gowon was the only administration getting ammunitions from Britain/Russia.

If France had not been supplying the Biafrians with ammunitions, the war would have ended quickly.

Lots of Igbo participants plus Anioma is Igbo; hence, Igbo coup. QED.

Abubakar Balewa (Hausa) - killed

Courtesy demands that you don't answer question with question.

The reason for my question is to tell you, that there are Igbos in niger delta too. You lots should stop making it to look as if niger delta is a different body to Igbos.

It was a coup based on ethnicity not political region.

Afterall, there are many ethnicity in the Niger delta: Benin, Yoruba, Igbo, Ijaw, Urhobo e.t.c.

if Ijaws had been the majority of the coup plotters, and Ijaw leaders spared, and Ijaw man being the one that becomes head of government after the success of the coup, people would have tagged it an Ijaw coup and not a Niger Delta coup because the Niger Delta is heterogeneous.

See them foolish slaves.
You went to war against those feeding you and started crying that they refused giving you food to eat.
You don't have borders with other countries but you are crying that those who have borders didn't give you access.

You are more stupid than your foolish fathers.
I don't engage with animals.

You lot better start to realise that it is your job to keep your house in order.

They don’t care if you kill all of yourself, they will sell arms to both sides in Nigeria they did it, in serrialeone they did it and lied about it even to their own parliament.

When Nigeria changed currency and thé Biafran pound was deemed worthless was when they stopped selling arms to Biafra.

There are no friends or enemies in war just business men. Pay by cash or resources or you are gone.

Unfortunately they are irredeemable so it’s better to leave them to their folly.

They lie so much that they even believe their own lie.
