BOBAN2710: YORUBA CAN SHOVE LAGOS UP WHERE THE SUN DONT SHINE. WE WILL SEE WHAT BECOMES OF LAGOS IN 10 YEARS, WHEN NO TRAFFIC FROM THE EAST. WE WIL BUILD OUR SEAPORTS AND THE ROAD TO LAGOS BLOCKED WITH TOLL GATE, SO WE WILL KNOW WHAT ANYBODY IS GOING TO DO THERE. WE ACTUALLY WANT TO SEE WHAT YORUBA CAN DO FOR THEMSELVES WITHOUT IGBOLAND. WE BUILT MUCH OF LAGOS WITH RESOURCES FROM THE EAST, LIKE WISE ABUJA AND IT IS OUR RESOURCES PAYING STATE ALLOCATIONS.

Alamu5891:If you know how many people Southern Sudanese separatists murdered before US came in to assist them secede from Northern Sudan, you won't say this. Even US fought wars within themselves before they finally agreed to form a United States with each state being independent as a way of ending their civil war. Everybody in the world knows that guerrilla warfare and gunmen attack is part of the struggle for freedom. South Africans fought theirs, so it's not new in the world and US is aware of this. Same happened in former USSR before they finally got balkanized into several countries today 3 Likes 1 Share |

legitnow1: Who are the "you people". You can't even discuss issues without sounding oppressed and victimised. You can d better. Violence is never an option. The incarceration of NK or anyone is not a rational reason to preach or advocate for violence. Negotiate for his release with sense and smartness. Everything is not gragra. Operate with civility to achieve your aims And your new nation waiting for his birth should not be propelled into existence by bloodshed and violence. Read. 1967-1970 Nigerian Civil war should never be a thing to wish for again. And stop the nonsense of lumping everyone with Tinubu, FG or other major decision makers in the country. If you are a lover of violence and an advocate of freedom through commotion, match to Aso Rock and demand immediate release of your NK. 1 Like |

MadamVanessa: As a matter of fact, Nigeria isn't fair to anybody except few individuals with political and economic power and influence. Every group within the country Nigeria has its own share of unfair treatment. All in all, if the Igbo or any group at all want to secede, they should be allowed. There should be no force in marriage. The unity the idiots at the top are safeguarding isn't even there. So each group seeking self-rule should be allowed to move out in peace without questioning and rancour 2 Likes |

franchasofficia: Sounds nice what you're saying. Why doesn't Ekpa go to the US and start to lobby?... don't you think he should be going there ... having protests and being the main speaker to bring some attention to his cause? There is Avery good reason why he doesn't go to the US. Charity begins at home. Who do you think would listen to one fighting for Independence for his people but is not amongst his people? There is a very good reason why Ekpa doesn't go to the US ... and remains locked down in Finland. Biafrans need to get their house in order before they even think of agitating for Independence. A house in disarray can never stand. Like Kanu ... one day Ekpa will be captured and returned to Nigeria to face sedition charges and will suffer the same fate as Kanu. |

10mobile:Story for the birds of the air. It's the colonial master that is the stumbling block to restoration of Biafra, because of crude oyel in the Niger delta region, not the US. Who installed Amina Mohammed of northern Nigeria as the Deputy Secretary General of the UN, and she is most likely to succeed the incumbent Secretary General of the UN, all in effort to preempt a UN-sponsored referendum on Biafra? Amina was catapulted from nowhere to the position at the height of agitation for referendum on Biafra. |

legitnow1: Learn to stay on the topic and stop letting your insecurity and bitterness for other group get a better hold of you. What you're saying here is your problem with Tinubu. Every other group has issue with Tinubu. Tinubu isn't synonymous to "Yoruba". The seat he occupies is not Yoruba heritage. So, stop lumping unrelated issues. Fight for what you want without creating hatred for other groups within Nigerian state. Be rational. Even if you get Biafra today, you can't exist in isolation. You will always need these other groups you demonize. It's a question of rationality. |

SonofElElyonRet: You don't have to blame yourself for not understanding basics of the Anglo; you have your own native languages to distinguish fact talking from acts of terrorism. There's no where in ekpa's tweet he claimed responsibility for deaths in south east...he only reports that certain elements, sanctioned by nija security forces are neutralized for acts of terrorism on civilians...( Maybe you don't know extortion of money at illegal checkpoints is an act of terrorism also) The legal implication is ; it is not a crime to fight recruited elements/mercenaries not officially sanctioned by GCFR or national assembly, unless you Wana promote treason by blaming ekpa ... There are several illegal operations of elements in the SE. No reasonable government considers self defense as an act of terrorism 2 Likes 1 Share |

Originalsly:Freedom fight have different scenarios. First let me make it clear to you and others that I do not like Simon Ekpa at all because of how he is using senseless boys to wage a guerrilla warfare that is destroying Southeast and giving Igbo haters the opportunity to be waging coded war against Southeast in the guise of Biafra agitation. That said, I only applauded his move to lobby US government to help plead the cause of Biafra to secure independence from Nigeria. This does not in any way mean that I support Simon Ekpa and his senseless hailing and probable sponsoring of gunmen to destabilize the Southeast in the name of enforcing sit-at-home. Back to agitating for freedom from outside your country, that is not an out of place style of agitating for freedom, many freedom fighters adopt this style considering the situation of your parent country. The Israelis that agitated for Israel state weren't mostly in today Israel back then, most where in exile in Europe and America. Even Bola Tinubu your current President when he and others under NADECO were fighting military government to return power to democratically elected individuals had to flee Nigeria to UK, Europe and America for their own lives and they still kept fighting from there, so when some of you talk, try and apply wisdom and stop commenting on Igbo or Biafra related issues with your usual hatred for Igbos okay? 1 Like |

Chetas81:Igbo man didn't become lawmaker in Rivers state, Igbo man became lawmaker in his own indigenous state called Rivers state. Rivers state is made up of different tribes, namely: Ijaw Igbo Ogoni Kalabari Etc So the Igbos you mentioned are indigenes of Rivers state who are among the owners of the Rivers state land even though some of them like Nyesome Wike and co have been deceived to believe they are not Igbos because of crude oil politics but to none Igbos they are Igbos when shit hit the ceiling fan. 3 Likes 1 Share |

RuggedBiafran: Another emotionally imbalanced nitwit on the loose. I don't have any problem with Biafra course. I only consider it stupid using violence and commotion to bring Biafra to existence. If you have any problem with that view, kiss my Ass! Boko Haram, Fulani Herdsmen, this and that, are still not related to the topic. Those are the scourges disturbing every aspect of Nigeria; from North to South, East to West. The menace of Herdsmen marauders exist in the East and every other part of the country. Stop viewing things from broken and irrational angles. Doing so makes you look broken, beaten and irredeemable. |
