Furthermore, do you think an Ijaw, Itshekiri, Ibibio etc are your family?

Neigbours yes, family no. If they want upgrade the relationship to 'family', they know what to do when referendum comes.

Jesusloveyou:
how old are you?

This is not about age, this is about fraud. The Igbo/Yoruba/Hausa were already self governing before colonial agents arrived in West Africa to merge all together illegally. What Im saying as Igbo man is that I do not subscribe to this 1914 'colonial arrangement' called Nigeria.

Nigeria is not my country and the Hausa and Yoruba man are not my brothers. We can still be friends, but definitely not brothers

freshest4live:
Even at that we should have separated after 1960 and not declare a republic in 1963, it doesn't matter what Luggard did, you had the chance to right the so called wrong, especially given the oft repeated claim by you guys of your animosity with Hausa Pre 1960

It matters what Lugard did because he brought us together. If he had not done that, nobody would have ever heard the word 'Nigeria'.

Now that there is Nigeria, as a result of colonial intervention, some people prefare peaceful divorce.

freshest4live:
Luggard didn't say so, Luggard only established the British Nigeria until 1963 when Nigerian leaders (not Luggard) signed to become a republic, not Luggard. Azikiwe said so, Awolowo said so, as well as Tafawa Balewa.

You dont get it. Lugard should have never have established anything in the first place.

It is because of his establishment that Igbo/Hausa/Yoruba found themselves in one country when all three ethnic groups have no business being together.

Im an Igbo man, how is the Yoruba or Hausa man.my family?

Oh yeah!!!!!!!

Lugard said so

I would have liked to see a better picture of that Biafran chair

So a case of "public disturbance" is what they are tranfering case file to Rivers state CID for?

There are far more serious cases such as robbery, cultism, arson that the case file has not seen the light of day but it is IPOB they send to CID for an offense which not more than "noise making". They also locked up a 15 year old boy?

Nigeria is truly a disgrace of a country and Kanu is right to want to exit this Hell with his people.

Kudos to IPOB legal team. Only in a backward country can anyone spend a second in jail for something as irrelevant as "public disturbance"

If Czechoslovakia could split up after over 80 years as a sovereign nation, then a 57 year old Nigeria is no exception

TRUTHTOPOWER:
They hate Yorubas for bowing to elders. Now their future is captured under the feet of Nnamdi Kanu.

For all we know, that could be a Yoeuba man bowing to Kanu as Yoruba culture demands.

How many 'notorious' people call for a sit at home protest and people willingly comply?

How many notorious people go to places and shut it the place down?

Something is wrong with this Onochie woman.

I have watched this before. Charley boy said he is a Biafran at heart but he will not support another Bisfra because of his war experiences.

What Charley boy does not realise is that the Biafra of today is not about war but referendum.

Deb13:
Nnamdi kanu should be careful never to end up like mko abiola

I don't really know what is happening to this guy. It seems the agitation of a thing has gotten into his head. He is not being diplomatic about what he is fighting for.

I don't like when men that are learned take it upon themselves to cause anxiety all over the places. Nigeria is tensed up already and we don't need to get involved into anything that will bring about blood shed or any kind of chaos.

We need peace in Nigeria; in the north, east, west and south. Mr president is not even helping matters. His body language is nothing to write home about. He is just not helping matters. Everythong about him is just lies. Their is too much anger, division, and hatred in the land caused by this present government.

Only an ignorant person thinks there can be peace in a situation were people are held against their will. Kanu isnt the problem, Nigeria simply does not work

The 1914 "colonial arrangement" called Nigeria has long outlived its usefullness. There is no other choice but to grant the ethnic nationalities who were bamboozled into this hellish contraption, an 'in' or 'out' referendum.

sgtponzihater1:
KANU wants to be d first dictator/president of Biafra yet his underdeveloped senses cannot fashion a logical framework.

No, Kanu has said many times, even on youtube that he does not want any political position in Biafra. All he wants is to achieve Biafra

Emyogalanya:
when Nigerians fought for Independence was it in the Colonial masters constitution to grant it?

No it wasnt. The only difference is that our Colonial masters, Britain, are a civilised people.

If Britain had wanted, they could have said 'the unity of the British empire is not negotiable!'

They would then throw all the nationalist who were agitating for independence like Zik and Awolowo into jail, try them for treason and gun down anyone who came out to protest.

But Britain, being the civilised country it is, knew that it is wrong to hold anyone against their will. So they granted everyone their independence at the appropriate time. Countries like Nigeria, India, Ghana and the rest all got their independence and the British empire was no more.

Britain even allowed its own area, Scotland, a referendum in 2014.

But Nigerians are far from being as civilised as Britain. Thats why Nigeria is still shooting Biafran protesters, detaining and charging Kanu and his supporters to court and stating that "the unity of Nigeria is not negotiable"

sgtponzihater1:
Nnamdi Kanu have not for once brought up any logical framework for Biafra, rather his crude tool have been cooking up series of hate speeches that haven't created any improvement plan. Aba is still one of the dirtiest markets in Africa, is it not oveerseen by Igbos?, without a developmental framework and a superior arguement, KANU remains a man who wants his chunk of the national cake, and wants it big. Ipobs are pickpocketing fellow Ipobs at rallies, Onitsha remains the deadliest city for stranger to walk in at Night, what difference then would Kanu's Biafra bring without a frame work for development and an intelligent argument. I am an apostle of truth, peace and progress, and have fallen out of favour even with my brothers in this regard. I believe carving out a country will make a rich formidable and enviable country, however I do not believe in Kanu's Biafra and his ill-centred antics. The time will come, we might not even call it Biafra, but not via the mischief maker called Kanu.

That is the essentail Kanu. A man who leaves his family in Europe with british citizenship and returns home to encourage jobless youths to take up a poorly understood and calculated struggle. A man who did not witness the Civil war nor saw the unending pain that went with it. A man who calls blacks less than Whites and equate them with animals, even threatening to anhinilate them where he white. That is the essetail Nnamdi Kanu

Don't let the scammers fool you.

Kanu's job is not to get a logical framework for Biafra, his job is to get Biafra. The famework is for Biafrans to go and get after Biafra is achieved

TheEminentLaity:
You guys have your minds made up anyway so ... FYI I have an igbo ancestry and knowing facts, I say over and over that Ojukwu is the biggest coward in history. Check the history books, no one even comes close. Restructuring is the best we've got. I suggest rather you waste your time fantasising about Ojukwu, you put it to good use by learning skills that would make you valuable and put some money in your pockets so that you can leave some for your children.

If you had at least N10m in your account, you won't be looking forward to chaos. It is only street urchins and hoodlums that look forward to such

You are just another timewaster who will be begging Northern Nigeria for restructuring for the bext 1,000 years as the slave you are.

I asked you a simple question. Who else un Africa has fought for the freedom of his people like Ojukwu?

Let me tell the reality of Nigeria incase you dont know, it is the same reality Ojukwu saw 50 years ago, and it still remains the same:

"There are only two types of people in Nigeria, those who seek their independence such as Ojukwu, Kanu, IPOB, MASSOB etc and those who have accepted to become perpetual slaves of the North"

The slaves are still shout restructuring.

viviangist:
@VIVIANGIST

Why will men continue to cheat even when they have beautiful and endowed women as wives. Did she over react ..?? Is she more beautiful and more packaged ..?? Then what made the man to cheat ..?? Her character ..??

No matter how delicious and appetising a dish is, if you eat the same dish everyday, you will eventually get tired of it

TheEminentLaity:
I don't expect you to agree with all of it, but at least you are with me in acknowledging that Ojukwu was the biggest coward that ever lived. Provide a name if you think there's someone else who deserves the honour.

Hmmmmm

Ojukwu, the son of one the richest men in Nigeria but forsaked his father wealth and joined the Army?

Ojukwu who fought in the Congo?

Ojukwu who declared the independence of his people and fought the combined military might of Nigeria, Britain and Russia for 3 years?

This is the man you call a coward just because he didnt stay back to allow you Nigerians slaughter him?

Tell me another individual in Nigeria who has fought for the freedom of his people like Ojukwu did? No one.

Now, I'll tell you what miserable is. Miserable is when out of the over 7billion people alive today and the billions that had once lived, it is Ojukwu, the infamous coward, you not only choose as a model but also idolise. His family is right in front of you eating fat from Nigeria and you want to break your poverty stricken undereducated vacuous skull for Biafra. If you could read, you would have understood by now that the millions of men and women including children who died of starvation and malnutrition from the foolish egotist maniac's tantrum, died for nothing. Your hero and his family proves this.

It is because you suffer from slave mentality is the reason yoy dont know anything about freedom fighting. Nigeria fought, killed and starved millions to death because of Oil money. Ojukwu fought for the freedom of his people, Nigeria fought for money. Which is more noble? As an Igbo man, Im proud of Ojukwu for fighting for the freedom of our people rather than choose the easy option all others chose of being slaves of the North.

The millions that died did not die for nothing, the Biafra they died for is now more alive than ever.

FYI, Ojukwu was buried by the Nigerian state. His family are ambassadors of the country he led innocent families to fight a needless war against. He hid in a bunker, ran off then returned and continued to contest elections. Shameless somebody, even sea captains go down with a foundering ship. Even the hate-filled Nnamdi Kanu has much bigger balls than the coward could even imagine.

People are clamoring for a restructured Nigeria, don't distract us with your Ojukwu and Biafra nonsense.

If the war was needless, why did you Nigerians come to the East to fight for 3 years? Ojukwu fought for his people, went into exhile, returned later and accepted Nigeria. When he started enjoying his entitlements as a Nigerian such as contesting elections, you haters called him out. So when Ojukwu was for Biafra, you people were against him. When he now was for ONE NIGERIA, you people are still against him. Ojukwu led his people in a fight for freedom and and independence and we make no apologies for it. Nigeria turned out to be a monumental disaster since the end of the war, proving Ojukwu right.


Nnamdi Kanu is talking about freedom and people like yoy are talking about restructuring, which everbody already knows that the North will never ever agree to.

You people clamouring for restructuring are just time wasters.

akilo1:
ojukwu the coward

Your Yoruba tribe has never produced anyone who fought like Ojukwu, and never will.

IPOB protests are always peaceful..............until the Army or Police arrive to open fire and turn it violent.

Fayose and and Tinubu, who is greater?

Viktor1983:
very very un-igbotic...
Anyone who bows or allows another bow to him/her is not Igbo.

Did Kanu ask the man to bow? The man, who may not be Igbo, decided to bow on his own accord.

Kanu cannot prevent people from bowing to him, all he can do is say 'get up' to them

che8:
After watching the mammoth crowd and massive followership enjoyed by Nnamdi Kanu, I paused to ask:

Who else can command similar uninduced followership throughout the entire eastern region except Nnamdi Kanu?

Nobody, and very few men can command such (without monetary inducement) crowds in Nigeria.

nairavsdollars:
Who is greater between Nnamdi Kanu and Emeka Ojukwu? Methink it is Nnamdi Kanu. Ojukwu fled during Biafra war but Kanu has refused to cower even daring the FG to rearrest him.

Stupid argument.

viqueta:
It is totally against the IGBO culture to prostrate before anyone, so what are you talking about? are you comparing it to the youruba's that it is their culture?

And how do you know that the man bowing to Kano is Igbo? He could be from anywhere, even outside Nigeria

PEPPERified:
That is very Un-Igbotic

Nobody said that the man who bowed to Kanu is Igbo.

Frederick Lugard did not create our Nigeria you dvmb tit, Britain at the Berlin conference of 1884 took ownership of the "Niger area" divided into the northern and southern protectorates, these protectorates were collapsed in 1914 to birth a country called british Nigeria.
With the resolute efforts of your father's mates through the Pan African pressure groups and tough negotiations, another country was born in 1960, the Nigeria for Nigerians, in 1963, it officially became a republic devoid of British influence.
So when you ask me questions on British Nigeria, I just have a feeling you are poorly educated.

You are even contradicting your self left and right because you have no point. Before 1914, there were just protectorates. Protectorates are not countries. In 1914, Lugard who at the time was Governor general of both North and South protectorates decided to amalgamate both protectorates to create the Nigeria we have today. This amalgamation was done without the consent or permission of the Igbo nation or any other ethnic group and this makes the creation of Nigeria illegal. We Igbos now wish to exit this 1914 colonial arrangement which we were never a party to its formation.

Works of other people means what? listen, we don't owe your illiteracy anything worse more when you don't have the decency to keep it at home.
First, the journey of an independent Nigeria started as early as 1944, till 1954 when Zik eventually became the premier of the Eastern region within which the british agreed to the terms of independence, if 10yrs works and struggle is not a lot of work by your standard, then you are a joke of your existence, Your father was there without any input yet you have the balls to criticize the works of others yet yielded results, continue following the umuahia lunatic about, let me ask you what has kanu achieved? Kuje prisons and hordes of cyclists gallivanting from pillar to post?
Please stop making a mockery of yourself!!

Again you confirm what I said. You are a Nigerian for stealing the country Lugard created in 1914.

You also stole the name 'Nigeria' from Lugards wife

Does it mean you cant go and create your own country and name like Ojukwu and Kanu are trying to do?

Nigerians stole the work of Lugard and his wife in other to exist.

People like Kanu are now saying that the Igbo nation be given a referendum where they can choose if they want to remain psrt of the colonial creation called Nigeria or not.

Interesting, but only a referendum will decide.

fulanmafia:
....there will still be Isis, global warming, natural disasters, wide wealth disparity etc.

Nigeria has never been perfect, and never will (neither will any country on planet earth) so we'll continue dealing with those problems even after Lil Kenny is sent back to his cage.

We? Who is we? I hope you are not one of those who belives in the fraud called ONE NIGERIA?
