basadenet:

Mr so call logic mind, there is nothing logical about you instead you are myopic and tribalistic in thinking. You assertion does not reflect the thinking of any yoruba man so if you can contribute or criticize constructively it is better you say off NL.

Onlytruth: I often frown at "wholesale attacks" against southern minorities on the civil war issue, especially EASTERN minorities, because people like Dede1 should know better about the TRUTH of what happened back then.
Careytommy for example is from Akwa ibom state, and a HUGE chunk of the people from there fought for Biafra and suffered alongside other Biafrans. The Biafran second in command was an Ibibio man. No twisting of history can ever change that. The attack on Careytommy was uncalled for.

As for bbreye, the Ijaw were split too (especially the Eastern Ijaw), so I cannot tongue lash him either.
I wish my brother Dede1 would calm down for once about his views on these groups.
As for the Mid-west, I believe that Biafra failed to do a good job BEFORE the war. The incursion by Biafran special forces (the S- Brigade) was only a defensive offense (after the war had already started), so that is understandable. The strategic damage was done BEFORE the war. Let no one forget that, lest a mistake is repeated.

Every Biafran adult (anyone above 18 years during the war) should make it a DUTY to be very honest about what happened during the war. Today's Nigerian politics shouldn't make anyone twist facts.
I've said my peace.

Logic Mind: The problem with we igbos is that we are too good for our own good. We are always looking out for our brothers even while they stab us in the back.
Did you see the letter Ojukwu sent to that 1diot, Banjo, promising him and the Yorubas their own country. He created two different countries for these so called midwestern minorities. They all turned back against us and aligned themselves with the northern oppressors.
We need to learn to be highly selfish. Our interest should be first and foremost.
I hear people here and there saying that we need these lazy baastards in order to realise Biafra. This is false and an illusion. We don't need them. They can form their own country and make alliances with whomever they want.
2015 please come fast.

Logic Mind:

You are still yet to provide proof, that Biafra killed mid western top officials.

[size=14pt]In addition to the scourge and humiliation of the occupation itself, fleeing Biafran soldiers carried out all kinds of unspeakable acts of brutality against the local population (17, 18 ). At the Urhonigbe Rubber Plantation, for example, hundreds of Midwesterners were summarily shot by regular and militia units which had already blazed a 'scorched-earth' trail of terror through Benin-West division (14).[/size]

Unfortunately, therefore, temptation to seek revenge against Ibos was very strong shortly after federal troops arrived...

Obiagu1: Talking about Midwest, it's known that a Biafran contingent lead by Banjo was headed to Lagos and passed through Midwest.
Mission: take the seat of government and end the war. They were stopped at Ore. Republic of Benin was created with no fuss.

Republic of Benin fell so soon and became Nigeria again and was used as a base by Nigerian forces. Fact.
Some of those from Midwest fought alongside Nigerians, thus became enemies of Biafra. Fact.
So Beaf, if your dad was targeted for execution, he must have been working for Nigerian forces so was a high value target/enemy. Fact.

More so, I still don't know how you got into this discussion since the minorities the post you replied to were those within Biafra. Midwesterners were never classified as betrayals by Biafrans because the were never Biafrans. So how would you betray what you are not part of? Now go figure.

For the avoidance of doubt. Let me repeat that you and your type are hate filled scum, id!ots, bullies, liars and cowards who feel it is easy to revise history and tell lies about minorities, because we make an "easy" target.

Dede1:

Bros, I urge you not to pay any mind to these forgers and dupes. Ojukwu did not write any personal letter to Victor Banjo as commander of 101 division of Biafran army. Please do not help these cowards to make such an unearthly falsehood relevant.

basadenet:


The Igbos are not too good as you claim them to be, they are suppose to be call traitor of the highest order.Now How do you explain a scenario where 3 friends exist and one decided within himself to start something on his own without carrying along one of the 2 remaining friend along. He now call one of the friend when he has problem. If you are such friend would you help such friend?

manny4life: Personally, I don't think so. However, like someone said, I don't think breaking up is the issue, but into how many pieces is the real issue. Also, will the breakup be peaceful or bloody?

Niflheim: my hometown,Bakana,was invaded by igbos,they buried my great uncle alived and they changed the name of our village to an igbo name.now this is the 2nd most painful part.the most painful part is when an igbo man tells you that you should be grateful for all the invasions and beheadings!!!

At the point of execution, one of them shouted, “I am a Ghanaian, I am a Ghanaian”. But Aboh people pointed at another one who was looking bemused and dumbfounded and told Col Achuzia that the man was not one of the notorious men. He was accordingly released and the remaining six executed publicly by firing squad. They had enslaved the Community, and abducted wives and young under-aged single females. They looted the people’s property and lived like kings to the detriment of the assignment given them in the war front.

T9ksy: @ Op, we yorubas sincerely hope the country breaks up even before 2015 as we are tired of sharing the same

nationality with a bunch of ingrates and long-throats.

Logic Mind:

You are pathetic. It has turned from "midwestern top officials killed by biafra when they arrived" to "hundreds of midwesterners killed by biafra when they left".
Listening to you, one would think that Biafra was formed with the sole purpose of wiping out the people of mid west. You are swallowing the lies told by your aboki invaders to get you to fight against your brothers.

We passed through your land on our way to Lagos and even gave you a country. Aboki came from the desert to your land, abolished your country and raised a military base from where to attack your brothers. Stole your wealth and distributed amongst themselves. And you call me the invader.
