During the Civil War, while they were killing Biafran soldiers, we were still having our Owambe parties in the West.

This time, the only support we'll give Biafrans is to throw Owambe parties and take Aso ebi for their funerals.

And after your parties, 50 years later, you people are still begging for retructuring and control of the resources of your own land.

A slave is a slave, wether they throw owambe paries or not.

Basalt:
We will do better as a union because no region has it all.

We can achieve alot combined

'No region has it all' is not a good reason to be together as one nation.

If no region has it all, thats what trade is all about.

We do t have to do ONE NIGERIA because of trade and co-opration, we ca do it as independent nations under ECOWAS. Nigeria does not work as a country and those who are tired of Nigeria should be given a referendum.

menmen20100:
We Are Witnessing The Greatest Resistance Against Tyranny by Muhammadu Buhari In Nigerian History. In the face of deaths, military tanks, guns and weapons, Hundreds of Thousands of Biafrans troop to Nnamdi Kanu's House in defiance of Muhamadu Buhari tyranny. Nnamdi Knau Addressing the crowd as the military retreats. Someone should tell Tyrant Buhari...THIS IS DEMOCRACY NOT MILITARY REGIME!

Buhari only came to complete his dictatorial military regime which was prematurely truncated in 1985

alt3r3g0:
When it comes to northern voilence, its more religious than tribal. They are too blinded by hate to be selective with tribe. Anyone not a muslim becomes the enemy.

Therefore, the largely Christian Igbo have no business being in one country with such people!

Kazim88:
I have realised one hard truth; Buhari and his Co Northerners and some Yorubas are so desperate to suck the Igbo people blood.

Even before 2015 election they were lusting for their blood, After the election they were eying their blood.

Looking for every excuse to see the blood flow. Nnamdi Kanu saga is another excuse to attempt it.

This blood they think is an easy and fresh human blood would chock them.

They don't understand the consequences of being blood suckers.. They rather destroy Nigeria hoping blood of the Igbos would flow.

But they would drink their blood, destroy their Nigeria. This their madness, would be the last.

Nnamdi Kanu wasnt talking for the sake of talking when he called the unity of Nigeria Nigeria a sham

The scales will finally fall of the eyes of those shouting 'restructuring!' When they realise just like Ojukwu did at Aburi 50 years ago, that the North will never allow an inch of Nigeria to be restructured.

SATOH:
I think I know how to end all this. Let all sensible Nigerians boycot anything that came from Igbo... In your street or market, don't buy anything from Igbos, stop exporting food stuff to them, cut-off all basic necessities, militarize the whole SE and even SS if need be. If they continue killing innocent lives in their pig republic, do the right thing back in your own state/region too. As for me and my family, we have pledge never to buy anything from Igbo or anything that came from there. God bless Nigeria and destroy the Pigs and idiots republic.

How come Nigerians like you havent urged the Government to militarise Sambisa and Herdsmen all this time they have been killing people?

mrvitalis:
Kanu has finally done it ...

All igbos have worked for in the last 50 years is at risk right now

Two fools that came back from London with over emotional attitude that made them see things from a single point and both fools never listened to advice

Buhari sent south east governors to give Kanu a final warning and he refused to understand now is the time

Pick this guy up already ...he shouldn't have an escape route like ojukwu

Kanu didnt do anything. Nigeria was a mess of a place before Kanu came on.the scene.

Herdsmen and Boko Haram were slaughtering people before Kanu came

zionmde:
And wat makes u think i support one nigeria? Do u really think that if a reprisal comes up now people in kaduna-kebbi, and Taraba-Gombe will ever make it home? then u have not been in those places before. I am against attacking Hausas in the east. because last time i checked the abbokki man polishing my shoe has nothing to do with deployment of soldiers there just as an Igbo trader in the north has nothing to do with igbos attacking hausas.
I have close friends (i call them family) in the deep north, i have also lived their with them 40% of them dont know anybody in the east, they lived all their lives up there. if biafra will be achieved, wisdom needs to be applied to ensure minimum casualties

I see, personally I dont support violence aganst unarmed people but in terms of the North and Igbos, there is no comparison. Take a look at the history below of how Igbos have been killed in the North and tell me what you think


"History

1945 Jos Riots:- Hundreds of Igbos killed

1953 Kano massacre:- Hundreds of Igbo massacred

July 1966:- Over 300 Igbo officers of the Nigerian Army murdered

1966:- Over 50,000 Igbos, men, women and children massacred all over the North

1967-70:- Over 3 million souls lost in the civil war in the name of 'one Nigeria'

Other situations where Igbos have been killed are:


Kano 1980
Maiduguri 1982
Jimeta 1984

This is the cost of "One Nigeria"

Vecharry:
Question: Are biafrans aware Nmadi Kanu has a British passport? If he is truly committed to the fight, then give up the British passport. or is that his plan B to hide in the British embassy? what do you guys think?

If he was interested in hiding, he would not leave the comfort of London to come to Nigeria where he knew he would be arrested and spend 18 months in prison.

That is not the actions of a man who wants to hide.

zionmde:
because we are not the same with them. i have stayed in the north to understand that igbos stand to loose more. i know many people born raised and have families there. some of them dont know anybody in the east. no matter wat peace is still priceless

So what is the point of Igbos doing ONE NIGERIA with people who have massacaring them for many many years?

Is property and money now equal to life?

Is Northern Nigeria the only place in the world to make money?

Igbos dont think small. It is time for us to think about our own independent country where we can trade and do business with the world not this nonsense we are doing inside Nigeria of wIting for Hausa to cough before we move ahead.

Gambia is just 2 million and is an independent nation and are doing business with the world, we Igbos are over 40 million and still d*ck measuring with Hausa and Yoruba inside ONE NIGERIA

modik:
Co-existence of Nigerians........Should this be by force in this 21st century

I no wan stay with you cos u no value my life.....No u must stay/live with me

I wan manage my destiny by myself cos you've sidelined me for over 50 years..........No, I must suppress you and manage you into the gutter!!!!!

What coloration of unity by force is this??

This is the thing I find funny about Nigerians. Nigerians are one of the few people in the world who expect fuel and fire to exist in the same room without an explosion.

A Nigerian is expecting to have a peaceful united country 'by force'

Where in the world do you hear people say "we must be together wether you like it or not"

If the British had been like this, would Nigeria have ever been independent?

Yet these hypocrites who call themselves Nigerians will troop out every 1st October to celebrate their independence from Britain while hailing the killing and intimidation of people by the Nigerian military who want the same independence from Nigeria.

You value your independence but support others being denied their own.

You want to get a country through 'unity by force'

Nigerians leave in deamland.

Anybody can sit down and concoct any lie against IPOB

Even the Police put a Biafran flag and muffler on display by some people the arrested yet we have never seen a Nigerian flag next to any suspect arrested in the history of Nigeria

imamabi:
The same thing the were holding is what shia Muslim held and they were murdered. My dear friend the truth is that it's better they stay outta soldiers way.

The truth is thst Nigerians are barbarians because you dont hear Soldiers shooting their citizens in civilised countries

Legolast:
Do not listen to their advice to defend your land with your life. When you die, their children, who are mostly residing overseas will inherit the land you and your friends died for.

They are not your friends.

They continue to push you to stand up against the national government from their peaceful homes in the abroad and you obeyed them by carrying firewood and stones to attack Nigerian Army. My brothers and sisters, you see the land you are defending with your life would be sold to them at 2 plots for 1 USD, Canadian dollar or mama Charlie pound after you are gone. They will buy and keep it for their children to build whatever they want on it.

Kanu's child(ren) is/are not in Nigeria just like theirs.

They are not your friends.

We don't want another civil war in Nigeria.
There is, at least another way to protest and actualize your dream than violence.

Thanks for reminding us that Nigeria is a symbol of oppression, slavery and dictatorship. Not that IPOB, doesnt know, thats why they know that only thing that will save the people is then they are free from everything Nigeria.

People who seek freedom will always be oppressed. That is how they want to have a nation, by shooting, killing and intimidating people to submit to ONE NIGERIA.

Today, Nigeria is being ruled an unrepentant tyrant who only came to complete his 1985 military dictatorship.


We shall one day be free because it is our right to decide our country.

When they are facing unarmed people, thats when you know that the Nigerian Army has swagger


But if it is to go to Sambisa and get Shekau, they will suddenly develop reluctance

How come when the Nigerian Army are out en mass, there is violence?

But when IPOB are allowed to do their thing, their is no violence?

RoyalUc:
"Whenever Biafra is agreed on and we know the ethnic make up of Biafra..."

Honesty, this is where NK or any Biafra aggitator should start.

You are asking for a Biafra that the citizens are not known, the boundries not specified.

If 'Pharaoh' let's you go now, where are you going to?

Of course. That is ideally how a country should start. Different ethnic nations choosing to be with who they think is more similar to them in outlook. Not the Nigerian situation where people who have nothing in common are brought together by colonial action and are fighting each other everyday

zionmde:
People going to attack hausas there are senseless and selfish. Did they not put into account how dangerous it will be for igbos in the north. Why attack people who did not attack you. Most of them have no property to loose unlike those in the north who apart from risking their lives might also loose properties worth millions. thats the problem with ipob guys they are just senselessly selfish

Really? Well consider this

Number of Hausas killed in Igbo land by mob action=0


Number of Igbos killed in Hausa land by mob action= Several thousands


So who do you think is the considerate party here?

OsunOriginal:
With the deployment of soldiers in SE and militarization of key Biafran towns, my advice to Nnamdi Kanu is to handover himself to Nigeria military or SSS to avoid loss of lives and properties. If he fails to do this, SE leaders should do the needful and hand him over before the rain of destruction starts. It will be too late to start calling UN and/or AI for help after the fact.

Sorry but we do not subscribe to slave mentality in our area

slimthugchimee:
its not new for Nigerian soldiers to flog people, they do so to Yorubas and Hausa's also, those guys must have done something to get into the problems of soldiers

Well it is only in a barbaric country that security agents carry whips and flog people. What it means is that IPOB are point for agitating to leave a barbaric country.

This video is for civilised countries where whips are no longer used to know that Nigeria is still too backward.

RoyalUc:
- "There are internal bickering in ever family, religious or not." It therefore means it will still be there in Biafra. If we can't solve that problem now, we won't be able to solve it in Biafra. But if we can, then let's start now.

- "As for Buhari, Igbos not liking Buhari is a long time thing and date way back in 1966..." Thanks for the honesty and the information. It means both of you are still carrying on with old time hatred. It takes two to tango. You are thesame and if one is having a upper hand now, I honestly don't think any should cry foul.

- Since the Yorubas are Southwest, don't you think they should also be involved in the referendum to determine if they will be in Biafra or Nigeria?

Whenever Biafra is agreed on and we know the ethnic make up of Biafra is decided through referendum, a sovereign national conference must be convened in which all the ethnic groups discuss and decide what form government Biafra should be, restructuring, resource control, revenue sharing formular, devolution of power as well as a constitution reflective of the people. All these things are not possible in Nigeria as the North will never allow any of them.

Igbos generally dont like Buhari, the man has been on killing spree of Igbos since 1966 to this day. He will still kill many Igbos before his tenure ends. We wont hace anything to do with such an evil man.

Yorubas should face their Oduduwa Republic.

SamzackD:


Lol

you just made my point for me,

you said Zik fought for our independence from the GB(Great Britain) without a plan and look at us today,

now compare what Kanu is doing to what Zik did and you'll find out Biafra is only gonna turn out to be worse than Nigeria.

Theres no way Nigeria can work, plan or no plan. Yoruba/Igbo/Hausa have very different ideas about what a nation and neither 3 are united about anything.

Nobody can make Nigeria right, it is too divided.

But Biafra has a chance. That is why as soon as Biafra is agreed on, a sovereign national conference must convened in which all the ethnic groups discuss and decide what form government, restructuring, resource control, revenue sharing formular, devolution of power as well as a constitution reflective of the people. All these things are not possible in Nigeria as the North will never allow it.

bolinxman:
Kanu should research the historical background of his so called Biafra,he will just waste the life of his gullible followers and nothing will happen. Their hatred towards Buhari has beclouded their sense reasoning . Kanu has elevated himself to an emperor status,they now worship him.

He will waste the lives of his followers? But it will be your Nigerian Soldiers shooting and killing unarmed people abi?

slimthugchimee:
With the way iPod members peddling false fake news up and down.... I hardly come to believe any rubbish they post.......all I see them as are jobless mofos who can't find something to do with their lifes

So what you are saying is these guys flogged their own backs to frame the Nigerian Army? Or you didnt see the pictures?

Nigeria is just a barbaric country where even security agents engage in extrer-judicial murder.


When people who are paid to protect life become the ones who kill people, even suspects, then what hope is there?

RoyalUc:
- Biafra is tolerant of all religions: I don't think that's true. The hatred for Buhari didn't start when he became President but before then. The hatred for him is not because he actually did anything wrong but because he is a muslim and Hausa.
If we tolerate all religions in the real sense of the word 'tolerate,' then there wouldn't be internal bickering even among 'christian' denominations.

- Are the Ijaws (and other tribes in the south) to vote in the referendum? Why?

- Biafra is only for those who are tired of Nigeria: So Biafra is a rest room...sorry, country? As in paradise where weary pilgrims find rest?

Oboy, it's time for all of us to think straight!

There are internal bickering in ever family, religious or not. Even in the Islamic fate, Shia and Sunni Muslims dont see eye to eye.

As for Buhari, Igbos not liking Buhari is a long time thing and date way back in 1966 when Buhari and other young Northern officers paricipated in a counter coup that slaughtered Igbos. His participation in the civil war, the executions during his tenure as miliitary head of state and his heavehanded method of dealing with IPOB. Buhari has been involved in killing Igbos since 1966 and it will never stop.

Yes Ijaws ad other tribes are to vote in a referendum because nobody should be forced into Biafra. Those who are happy to continue with Nigeria should vote accordingly while those who want to leave should vote that way

nairavsdollars:
What would have happened if soldiers had killed Nnamdi Kanu on Sunday. Will Nigeria boil as his IPOB supporters have claimed? Or people will protest and forget about him after three days and go about their normal businesses?

Most likely what will happen is that most Igbos are going turn against the Nigerian nation while the die hard Biafran activist will take up arms. IPOB has been largely non violent. If Kanu is killed, no IPOBmember is going to believe in non violence any more. Many are likely to go underground only to resurface when they have acquired weapons and thats when the Nigerian Army will finally see that it was much better to be diplomatic with IPOB before they took up arms than after.

mrvitalis:
Yes igbos should learn from them

They first formed a party and won majority of the sits in Catalonia and not one man declearing him self commander in cheif of Catalonian army

This is the model I have asked my brothers to take ...we the pro Nigerian igbos can engage them on active debate so they people will know what they will gain and lose in both case

It is not possible in Nigeria because Nigeria does not practice Regionalism like Spain.

victorDanladi:
In current maps of the proposed Biafra Republic drawn
by its proponents, Cross River State is still shown as
being part of it but it is time to inform the world that
Cross River State will not be in Biafra again. If
eventually, the five states of the South East become a
country and cease to be a part of Nigeria, Cross River
State as it is today will become an independent entity.
We Cross Riverians will have our own country and
govern ourselves.


Cross River possesses everything it takes to be a
sovereign, self-sufficient country. Having a landmass of
over twenty thousand square kilometers, Cross River is
even larger than countries like Singapore, Jamaica and
Kuwait. In the event of a Biafran split, we shall take full
advantage of our land, strategic coastal location as well
as our God given natural and human resources to make
a great country out of Cross River state.
Federal Republic of Cross River


.

I think it is important to state that the Biafran agitators want a referendum. In that referendum, the only choice there will be to choose remaining part of Nigeria or seeking independence as Biafra. If Cross River chooses to remain part of Nigeria, it will continue with the rest as Nigeria.

If CrossRiver chooses to go with Biafra, it will be part of Biafra and if it wishes to leave Biafra in the future, a referendum can be held for it.

But if CrossRiver wants its immidiate independence, they have to start agitating for it because nobody will allow CrossRiver to use the Biafran agitation as its own independence movement

That is what happens in a dictatorial nation where the rule of law is non existent
