. . . But, why am I seeing so many Biafra topics left and right?  Why is Nairaland turning to MASSOB land? When I hit 'Recent Posts" all I see is Biafra this and that. What is the moderator and owner of this site doing about this infiltration? This site is just so tribalized it's not even funny.

I just hope I'm not the only one who notices this
Nairaland should remain a website for Nigerians and friends of Nigeria, please.

what is your take?

c.fours alj harem, stop deceiving yourself and playing ad hominem games here.

The guy wanted to be a Biafran, you FORCED him back into Nigeria, killing millions. What do you want him to do? Sing kumbaya?
It is a HUGE challenge being a Nigerian. This fact is clear to most diaspora Nigerians. A lot have lost job opportunities just because of 419 letters from Nigeria alone.

The OP of that thread is free to state his feelings as long as he is still forced to be a Nigerian.
Wait, one day when Nigeria must have released him and his people, if you see him here then, only then should you open this type of thread.

Re: Nairaland For Nigerians And Friends Of Nigeria (not Biafrans)! by DuduNegro: 5:20am On Feb 14, 2012

Re: Nairaland For Nigerians And Friends Of Nigeria (not Biafrans)! by cfours: 5:21am On Feb 14, 2012
I think there should be a separate Biafra section on nairaland where the massob members should be limited to disseminating their propaganda.
Otherwise, they will just continue to stir tribal warfare on this site.

c.four,

When I first noticed their over zealous derision of Nigeria I brought it to their attention here that they should recall why the Northern pogrom started. . . . because they were mocking and jubilating under inappropriate conditions. I advised that they do their Biafran flag and anthem at home and in private, not in newspapers and online and on tv. . . .but they will not listen. In a post today I repeated the same thing on the need to be cautious in how they display their love and patriotism for Biafra. There is only one thing they know to do well and it's putting the cart before the horse.


Anyway, for the record everyone should see this comment below. I got it from internet. Listen to what the eye witness said about why Igbo were targeted in North. Hear also what Awo wanted and how Zik secretly plotted against him in order to get his vision of One Nigeria. Ndigbo want to talk about betrayal!

December 28, 2011 at 2:09 AM

@ Egbe, @ Ukachukwu, @ Ejior, and @ Odunukwe: Please before you facists start TRIPPING OVER YOUR HORMONES, let’s get some facts straight here. I was at Government College Zaria when the first coup led be Col. Nzeogwu took place; Ahmadu Bello, leader of the Northern Peoples Congress was killed, Tafawa Balewa, the first prime minister was killed, Chief Okotieboh, finance minister was killed, Chief Obafemi Awolowo was still serving 10 a ten year prison term for “Treasonable Felony” for trying to secede from the Federation of Nigeria. All the Igbo ministers, including Nnamdi Azikwe, the president were in nowhere to be found; they were believed to be hiding in the East. Later, Col. Agui Ironsi, took over as the Commander in chief. Col. Odumegwu Ojukwu was posted as the military commander of the East.

The Igbos in the North were publicly REJOICING and TAUNTING the Northerners that their political dominations have been shattered. The Northerners felt grossly insulted went on rampage, and started killing any Southerner they could find; 80 percent casualties were Ibos; Caualties might have gone way, way higher, it was the British Government that persuaded the Northerners to stop, or else. If the Igbos in the North, have not resulted into uncalled for jubilations, mass genocide of the Igbos might have been avoided. During all these dark periods, Chief Obafemi Awolowo was still at Lekki Prison at Epe. More to come on this episode=============

Before we attained Independence at all, Chief Obafemi Awolowo was at the forefront trying to convince the British government that “CONFEDERATION” was the best solution for Nigeria, and that the 1914 Luggard’s Amalgamation of the Northern and Southern Protectorates was a SHAM; a long term pretext by the British to maintain POST_COLONIZATION. Chief Anthony Eronsele Enahoro(The fugitive Offender), who was the Chief Editor of Nnamdi Azikwe’s African Pilot wrote extensively against the British illegal Amalgamation of Nigeria; as a matter of fact he(Enahoro) was unconditionally jailed without trial by the British. Chief Enahoro finally resigned as Chief Editor of African Pilot, and joined Chief Obafemi Awolowo when he discovered that Nnamdi Azikwe was secretly undermining the progress of confederation.

The Northern Sultan Emirates advised the Britsh not to venture amalgation because Islamic believes and Quaranic studies run their daily WAYS and MEANS. So my people, Boko Haram started way before 1914, but the British ignored the consequenses. Chief Obafemi Awolowo and Chief Anthony Enahoro went to prison justifying confederation for Nigeria; The brick that the builder rejected, finally became the cornerstone of the house. Read: 1. TREASONABLE FELONY of Chief Obafemi Awolowo. 2. The Fugitive Offender(of Chief Eronsele Anthony Enahoro). 3. Chief Anthony Enahoro’s Editorials(Azikwes’s African Pilot)against one Nigeria.

Another one:

This one is the most interesting because on the outfront it seems like a Igbo thread. but if you really read it, it's Biafran. What' surprising is that OnlyTruth who has shown himself on this thread was crowned their Leader (or Eze). One can easily tell that he had organized members to put up biafran profile pics and posts suggest even more. He's encouraging fellow members and initiates to create special hushmail accounts for God knows what.

The thread also was openly promoted by two moderators.

I left your thread for you and wished you luck, but obviously you cannot move on with it. lol
That is why I first said you would likely die of heart attack over this issue which you cannot do anything about.
This is a Nigerian forum, and as of today, Biafra is still part of Nigeria. So learn to live with us. wink
Re: Nairaland For Nigerians And Friends Of Nigeria (not Biafrans)! by cfours: 6:40am On Feb 14, 2012
There is no nigerian -biafran dual citizenship. pick one abeg.
Onlytruth- your profile and posts says it all as has been exposed.

This is your first post on Nairaland that reveals you to be an active Massob member. Are you still planning your genocide against Nigerians?
all your earlier posts are massob oriented. what a coincidence.



Re: Massob Declares Self-determination - Launches Travel Passport

The way you chant war here makes me think that you believe you can scare Igbos with it. That also makes me think that without war people like you cannot even see reason. However, don't forget the people you are dealing with-  the fastest learning people in Africa! You are warming up to come to Igboland to violation and pillage, but wait, we will shock you this time. The Desecrating might actually be in your backyard this time. We are not afraid of war crimes, provided it reaches every nook in Nigeria. If we Biafrans cannot commit genocide in Sokoto or Damaturu this time, we won't fight, bear this in mind. Any day you hear that Igbos have decided to fight again, run for your dear life because we are now battle hardened after 40 years of war and occupation of our homeland. If you don't believe me go ask the Israelis how they defeated all the combined armies of the arab world in 1940s, 1950s, 1967s and 1973. Israel sits in the middle of worse and more formidable enemies but they still stay there. The Biafra we are planning is unstoppable. You will see. For 40 years your Nigeria have been wagging a covert war on Biafra and we have been learning. The last time I checked, Nigerian military could not even defeat the Sierra Leonian rebels under "General Mosquito". They were confined to Freetown and couldn't venture outside of Freetown. As we speak, the Niger Delta militants are using the same strategy and winning. The only thing missing is the Nigerian section strategy (to bring violation, murder and ethnic cleansing to all parts of Nigeria)  which we will perfect before you hear the first gun shot from Biafra. The strategy will see this war in Okitipupa, Ijebu Igbo, Ogbomosho and all parts of the north if they lead it again. It will be good to feed some of the Nigerian tribes with their own meal. Genocide? Wait. If the Igbos take up arms again, we will not drop it even if it takes 1000 years to achieve Biafra. Why? Because history has shown us that[b] Nigeria (and its wicked inhabitants) are not the type to lose a war to. [/b]Our fathers made the mistake of trusting Gowon about his 3 Rs. Today we are slaves in an incurable failed state called Nigeria.
The most important point some commentators have raised here is that we Igbos know who our enemies are now, unlike before when we trusted some people and they sold us. We also know the international politics involved. None of the previous backers of Nigeria will want to identify with a failed state like Nigeria. A country that produces most of the world's problems. They will like to see a real end to all these Nigerian problems. The only thing stopping Biafra will be our level of determination and how much we can reciprocate acts of aggression from Nigeria. So Javalove, be rest assured we WILL NOT repeat the mistakes of 1967.

Besides, the owner of the site is not complaining.

So, who are you faceless goon to exclude the participation of Biafrans here?

@OP
Ponder over this piece written by a Yoruba son:
Boko Haram Justifies Biafra And Vindicates Odumegwu Ojukwu


By Abiodun Ladepo
The Boko Haram (BH) claims it is avenging the “extra-judicial” killing of its leader, Muhammed Yusuf, who died at the hands of the Nigerian Police in 1999, during the presidency of the late Umaru Musa Yar’Adua – a Northern Muslim. BH waited for Jonathan, a Christian, to become president before taking terror to a new level.

It added to its manifesto the annihilation of all Christians in the North; the removal of all churches and all businesses associated with Christians from the North; the introduction of Sharia law throughout the rest of Nigeria (13 Northern states now have Sharia law); the removal of all symbols of Western-styled democracy; and the abolition of Western education altogether. This manifesto could be dismissed as the wishful thinking of a deranged group, except that members of BH are dead serious (no pun intended) about achieving these goals. They have essentially made Borno and Yobe States ungovernable. They have the presidency on its heels, sweating and fretting; they have the security agencies hobbled and in shambles; they have all Nigerians restive and pensive; and they have the international community paying rapt attention.

To the rest of the civilized world, BH’s activities exemplify the very definition of “Ethnic Cleansing”, genocide or Jihad. It happened in the old Yugoslavia and now there is no more Yugoslavia. It happened in Sudan, and now we have the countries of Sudan and South Sudan. It happened in Germany…the infamous Holocaust…and now we have the new Israel.

It has happened in Nigeria before…this wanton killing, maiming and destruction of properties. Ah, you forgot? You forgot the Northern pogrom of 1966 which was the precursor to our first civil war? I say “first” because I think we are headed for the second one. During the pogrom, hordes of Hausa/Fulani people, like flies, invaded the homes of Igbo people in the North, slitting their throats and clubbing them to death…without provocation, and with utter impunity! I didn’t read this in a history book. I witnessed it with my own eyes as a kid in Zaria. I lost my innocence then. My family was spared because my father had one of those tribal marks native to Ibadan, and he was a devout Muslim.

So, today, suppose a group springs up in Enugu under the aegis of Christianity, with a name like say…Eastern Sons of Christ (ESOC), and begins the killing and maiming of all non-Christians, especially people of Hausa/Fulani extraction, along with some of their Yoruba collaborators. Imagine the ESOC laying explosives in and around businesses, mosques and homes owned by people other than members of the ESOC tribe. Imagine a similar group, under the name of say…Western Sons of Christ (WESOC), stands up its operations in Ibadan, targeting all Hausa/Fulani Muslims, along with their Yoruba collaborators (there are many Muslims in the Yoruba kingdom). Imagine yet another group springs up in Port Harcourt, under the name of say…Southern Sons of Christ (SOSOC), killing people of Hausa/Fulani extraction - Muslims, along with their Yoruba collaborators.

If the ESOC became a terror group like the Boko Haram (BH) has become, it would be justified. It could claim vengeance for the thousands of Igbo people that were, without provocation, ruthlessly massacred by the Hausa/Fulani during the pogrom. It could further justify its actions by claiming more maltreatment during the ensuing civil war (1967 – 1970), and yet more maltreatment following the so-called “No Victor No Vanquished” truce evident in the continued marginalization of the Igbo in most spheres of influence in Nigeria.

If the WESOC became a terror group like the BH, it could claim that it was tired of being caught between the Hausa/Fulani Vs Igbo (Muslim/Christian) fights. WESOC could say that it frequently suffered with ESOC each time the Northern Muslims embarked on one of their barbaric extermination missions and that ESOC never gave it enough credit. Instead, ESOC blamed WESOC for not joining in the Biafra cause. (WESOC can’t even claim any monolithic Christian stronghold in its geographical area, and can’t state with any degree of certainty which of the two major religions enjoys a numerical superiority in its communities.) WESOC can further claim that when one of its illustrious sons, a strong Muslim for that matter - MKO Abiola, won the election for President, the Hausa/Fulani Muslims, before morphing into BH, killed him rather than allow him to rule.

And if the SOSOC was to become a terror group exactly like the BH, it could claim that its previous acts of blowing up oil pipelines and kidnapping for ransom did not fully achieve SOSOC’s goal of 50% oil revenue allocation. It could argue that “our oil” was being used to build skyscrapers, mansions and “six-star” hotels in Abuja, Sokoto, Maiduguri and Yola, while “our people” in the Niger-Delta couldn’t fish or farm without fear of pollution. It could argue vengeance for the brazen, state-sponsored killing of one of its illustrious sons - Ken Saro-Wiwa, during the presidency of a Hausa/Fulani man and the desecration of his body by pouring acid on it.


In essence, we could have anarchy all across Nigeria, not just in the Northeastern States and Abuja, and no one would have peace. These groups could all find nebulous excuses to justify unleashing mayhem on the rest of the country like the BH is now doing and we would have our second civil war.

We had the Maitatsine riots of 1980, largely in the same Northeastern area. We have had other similar incidents in the intervening years, all aimed at building a homogenous, Islamic caliphate in Northern Nigeria. The military governments of the day easily put down those riots and attacks. But that was before the advent of the use explosives as weapons of terror. In 1980, Maitatsine rioters, progenitors of the BH sect, used knives…long knives…to attack Christians. Now they use guns…machine guns…and explosives to mow down innocent, unharmed people. Then they brazenly take onto the internet to claim responsibility for their dastardly acts. And like Al Qaida, they have amorphous, nameless and faceless leadership.

It is clear that since Nigeria’s amalgamation, the Hausa/Fulani Muslims of the North thought of themselves as superior beings, compared to the Christians of the South, and particularly the largely-Christian Igbo people. In fact, if you have the trust and confidence of a Northerner, you will frequently hear him derisively refer to Igbo people as “impure” and “lower-than-dogs”. This may sound like I am fanning the embers of ethnic crisis here. But I am stating the facts. I know that Igbo people in power today are aware of this, and so are their Yoruba and, of course, their Hausa counterparts. They are just too timid to say it in the open. I am not in power and I am not timid. I grew up in Zaria as a practicing Muslim. I attended Arabic/Islamic evening classes, lived in Kano and Maiduguri and finished my elementary school in Bukuru, near Jos. I also speak Hausa better than I speak English. So, before anybody castigates me as a basher of the North or of Muslims, they better take cognizance of the fact that I had firsthand experience. Notice how no Hausa/Fulani of significant profile, like say…the Sardauna of Sokoto, the Emir of Zaria, the Emir of Gwandu, the Emir of Maiduguri, Ibrahim Babangida, Mohammadu Buhari, Abubakar Atiku, Abubakar Umar, etc…has come out to openly denounce the BH sect. Their quiet acquiescence should not be interpreted as cowardly or coincidental. It is calculated.

The hatred of Igbo people and Christians by the Hausa/Fulani people remains palpable. Northern Muslims just manage to tolerate them. If they thought they could harm a Christian or an Easterner and get away with it, they would do it in a jiffy, without compunction and without remorse. And they would do it in the name of Allah. I have read the Qur’an, to include the Hadiths, and I have not found any portion of it where the Prophet Mohammed (PBOH) enjoined, sanctioned, urged or ordered adherents of Islam to destroy believers of other faiths. Of course, we have ultra-right-wingers in all religions, including Christianity, but none is waging such destructive and bloody war against “non-believers” like our Northern brothers. I think it is even tantamount to heresy referring to them as “brothers” those who have taken self-righteous indignation beyond any scintilla of reason. They are reprobates.

So, if the West, the East and the South conclude that the North has gone beyond redemption, why not grant the North its request? Why not draw a real, physical border with the North and allow it to rule its people like it wishes? By now, we all should know that no attempt at placating the Hausa/Fulani people would prevent them from sliding into their banal recidivism. I have absolutely no problem having to apply for a visa to visit my Alma Mata in Zaria or Bukuru. By their acts, the BH sect has vindicated Odumegwu Ojukwu and proved the venerable Obafemi Awolowo wrong about Biafra. Awolowo fought to “keep Nigeria one” but it is now clear that the task had always been only one-sided. The North obviously did not get that memorandum and so did not share the same objective. We need to quickly adorn the Ikemba of Nnewi with rose-bedecked garlands for being brave and visionary enough, as far back as 1966, to attempt Biafra. Ojukwu, who was humiliated, harangued, vilified and exiled for knowing (that far back) that the North was always going to be implacable, should be celebrated as a hero and rewarded as such before he passes on to the great beyond. And I am not being facetious or sarcastic.

The North now wants its own country – one ruled by Sharia and devoid of any semblance of Western civilization. We should let them have it peacefully. Those who have called for a Sovereign National Conference should redouble their efforts. Nigerians need to talk amongst themselves now so that they can peacefully decide how to coexist. Otherwise, the inevitable combustion will swallow everybody. If you have not been directly (or even remotely) touched by the BH attacks, you may not appreciate the urgency of deciding peacefully the future of Nigeria. If you have never seen a full blown war firsthand, I hope that you and your family continue to be protected from finding out how it feels. It is not a pretty sight.

not intend for their new nation to be subservient to the biafra nation.

c.four,

When I first noticed their over zealous derision of Nigeria I brought it to their attention here that they should recall why the Northern pogrom started. . . . because they were mocking and jubilating under inappropriate conditions. I advised that they do their Biafran flag and anthem at home and in private, not in newspapers and online and on tv. . . .but they will not listen. In a post today I repeated the same thing on the need to be cautious in how they display their love and patriotism for Biafra. There is only one thing they know to do well and it's putting the cart before the horse.


Anyway, for the record everyone should see this comment below. I got it from internet. Listen to what the eye witness said about why Igbo were targeted in North. Hear also what Awo wanted and how Zik secretly plotted against him in order to get his vision of One Nigeria. Ndigbo want to talk about betrayal!

@ Egbe, @ Ukachukwu, @ Ejior, and @ Odunukwe: Please before you facists start TRIPPING OVER YOUR HORMONES, let’s get some facts straight here. I was at Government College Zaria when the first coup led be Col. Nzeogwu took place; Ahmadu Bello, leader of the Northern Peoples Congress was killed, Tafawa Balewa, the first prime minister was killed, Chief Okotieboh, finance minister was killed, Chief Obafemi Awolowo was still serving 10 a ten year prison term for “Treasonable Felony” for trying to secede from the Federation of Nigeria. All the Igbo ministers, including Nnamdi Azikwe, the president were in nowhere to be found; they were believed to be hiding in the East. Later, Col. Agui Ironsi, took over as the Commander in chief. Col. Odumegwu Ojukwu was posted as the military commander of the East.

The Igbos in the North were publicly REJOICING and TAUNTING the Northerners that their political dominations have been shattered. The Northerners felt grossly insulted went on rampage, and started killing any Southerner they could find; 80 percent casualties were Ibos; Caualties might have gone way, way higher, it was the British Government that persuaded the Northerners to stop, or else. If the Igbos in the North, have not resulted into uncalled for jubilations, mass genocide of the Igbos might have been avoided. During all these dark periods, Chief Obafemi Awolowo was still at Lekki Prison at Epe. More to come on this episode=============

Before we attained Independence at all, Chief Obafemi Awolowo was at the forefront trying to convince the British government that “CONFEDERATION” was the best solution for Nigeria, and that the 1914 Luggard’s Amalgamation of the Northern and Southern Protectorates was a SHAM; a long term pretext by the British to maintain POST_COLONIZATION. Chief Anthony Eronsele Enahoro(The fugitive Offender), who was the Chief Editor of Nnamdi Azikwe’s African Pilot wrote extensively against the British illegal Amalgamation of Nigeria; as a matter of fact he(Enahoro) was unconditionally jailed without trial by the British. Chief Enahoro finally resigned as Chief Editor of African Pilot, and joined Chief Obafemi Awolowo when he discovered that Nnamdi Azikwe was secretly undermining the progress of confederation.

The Northern Sultan Emirates advised the Britsh not to venture amalgation because Islamic believes and Quaranic studies run their daily WAYS and MEANS. So my people, Boko Haram started way before 1914, but the British ignored the consequenses. Chief Obafemi Awolowo and Chief Anthony Enahoro went to prison justifying confederation for Nigeria; The brick that the builder rejected, finally became the cornerstone of the house. Read: 1. TREASONABLE FELONY of Chief Obafemi Awolowo. 2. The Fugitive Offender(of Chief Eronsele Anthony Enahoro). 3. Chief Anthony Enahoro’s Editorials(Azikwes’s African Pilot)against one Nigeria.

You seem to degenerate into the state of nescience. It is either a matter of disingenuous or outright mischievousness for a person to cull this conjectural crap to support an ill-informed opinion.

If you call the jackass who wrote this nonsensical piece an eyewitness, there is no doubt you are an irredeemable ninny. At this stage of your life and that of the goofy punk who wrote the reference you posted, both of you can not even posit correctly the military ranks of the principals during coups of 1966. Yet an imbecilic dullard such as you would want us to believe iota of this fabricated fallacy.

Why must Ndigbo rejoice at death of fellow Nigerians? I guess Tafawa Balewa was the prime minister of northern region not Federal Republic of Nigeria. It was the same idiotic propaganda leveled against Ndigbo rejoicing with song labeled Ewu Na Ebe Akwa produced by Igbo artist. When moronic dingbats were shown the fallacy they have committed as they were correctly informed the artist of record was Ijo, they changed to Igbo market women.


When will the flow of idiocy end in the cesspit called Nigeria? Throughout constitutional conferences toward Nigeria’s independence, there was no instance when Awolowo or member of AG singularly walked out for conference because British refused to grant independence to western region of Nigeria. It is on record that Awolowo was the only politician of Nigeria’s independent era who went to war to keep Nigeria as one entity.

Shut up there, punk. Visionary is not seeing things the way they are but seeing things they should be. If you and your forbearers were little bit visionary, you would have been a better dullard than you are today. If your people were intelligible enough in 1966, the limit of your personal achievement could have been better than looking for leftovers from Hausa, Fulani, Kanuri and Nupe.
