Slave to the north, even till this day, his people (the yarabas) are following in that shameful legacy of being slaves to their aboki masters

He said "many people" not some people! Lying is encoded in your DNA.

Thanx for the observation, it shows Awo's free education policy wasn't a total falure afterall, I was multi-tasking.

Bak to topic,,,, what do you think of that brigadier who abdicated his responsibility to Gowon? Don't you think he failed our "dear" country, nigeria

I found the spech given by the Niger state Governor during Ojukwu's burial rites in Zungeru, Niger state.

Listen from 2.30. I believe his quote "Many people will respond by running away" fits a certain brigadier, who ran away from his father's land to the UK at the sight of drunken northen soldiers. Little wonder the man Ojukwu is hated by this brigadier's kinsmen because he (Ojukwu) chose to protect his people. RIP to you (Ojukwu) my king and leader .

ChinenyeN:
If you don't mind me asking, what exactly are you envisioning, when you think about 2015? Can you expand upon the decisiveness of it all, as you see it, of course?

I stated that 2015 and beyond (if nigeria disntegrates or remains one, doesn't matter) would be vital to how we relate with them because that will be period we will realize "if doing thesame thing will either get us thesame result or a different result" . I believe this is a period when most Igbo will let them know that two can play thesame game if they continue in their hate infested traits for Ndigbo, and I already know who will loose big time if it comes to that.

For the records, I'm in no way advocating for forming a union with these folks. I'm only interested in finding areas of co-operation that will be beneficial to Ndigbo and non-Igbo easterners, as long as it will lead to the disintegration of the dungeon called nigeria, after which everybody will decide with OPEN EYES on what terms to part ways, SIMPLE! I don't want another mini nigeria to hunt Igbo generation unborn

I will not toss anyone out but like EzeUche said, probably take a trip to Bayelsa and Rivers and ascertain the feeling and general opinion there.

I will always treat such statements from Annkio Briggs and Asari with utmost caution. No one is going to use us as a step to achieve their own ends. Was it secession of the East or the secession of Niger Delta she was talking about?
As for MASSOB not being strategic, what else should they do? Force the non-Igbos to join MASSOB (Gods knows how many advances MASSOB have made towards a united front) or dissolve MASSOB and join MEND as OnlyTruth will like us believe?

@ the bolded, that's why it will be in our interest to at least find out exactly what they're getting at and see the area(s) of co-operation, if need be. I'm also not ruling out what Ezeuche has raised, that is why I'd emphasize on the importance of caution and wide consultation. I stated that MASSOB is not being strategic (based on Uwazuruike's outburst) by making it seem like it would be Igbo vs others again. Finally, I share your sentiments about no group going to use us to achieve their aim,,,,,I believe we've had >42yrs of history to guide us in that regard.

I also believe the most vital test (post civil war) to the relationship between Ndigbo and their non-Igbo easterners will be in the year 2015. This year will be a very decisive one for us in terms of how we go forward. Just my opinion.

I fervently believe that Biafra lost the war because it lacked the most neded international support from a powerful foreign ally,,,,FACT!

That aside, I don't think we should disregard the reasonable ones among our non-Igbo neighbors,,,,the likes of Asari, Aniko Briggs. Like somebody rightly said, the

Clarks are getting old and would pass on soon. I believe the current generation of these minorities are seeing what nigeria has turned out to be and how they're

being exploited, so I will not "toss" them out. However, the KEY THEME going forward should be CAUTION on our path.

So going forward, we must carry out wide consultation with all of them with "clear and open" terms that is acceptable to ALL. We must make them understand

what is at stake and never stop engaging them, because quite frankly, if we (Igbo) do not engage them, our enemies will take advantage. I also agree with Onlytruth when he said MASSOB is not being strategic. The future in these non-Igbo areas of the east belongs to the Asari's and other smart folks from there and even to the Beafs of the midwest .

Then again, I have to reiterate the KEY word here : CAUTION as we go forward.

Excellent debate from different sides of the coin. While I commend the changing attitude of our non-Igbo neighbors vis-a-vis their past wrt Ndigbo, I will everly remain cautious in dealing with them (minorities).
