Politics › Ex Police Chief Urges Igbos To Embrace Nigeria. by Banter1(op): 3:42pm On Nov 22, 2015
A retired commissioner of police, Mr.
Ibezimako Aghanya has said that the
renewed agitation for an independent
Biafra state was baseless as Biafra was
‘dead and buried’ with the end of the
Nigerian civil war.
Daily Trust reports that the former
commissioner of police who served in
Kogi, Benue and Ekiti made his comment
about Biafra during an interview at the
Igbo Day celebration at the Ibrahim
Badamasi Babangida Square in Makurdi,
Benue state.
Mr. Ibezimako Aghanya Photo Credit: Daily
Trust
The arrest and continued detention of
Nnamdi Kanu, the director of Radio Biafra
has escalated the protest for an
independent state in the eastern part of
the country. The protests under the aegis
of the Independent People Of Biafra and
The Movement for the Actualization of the
Sovereign State of Biafra have sometimes
resulted in violence and the Nigerian army
has warned that it would not fold its arm
and allow the country degenerate into a
state of lawlessness.
Aghanya claimed the leaders of the
renewed agitation for Biafra know nothing
about what led and transpired during the
civil war. He added that the late
Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu who
championed the Biafra war later contested
to be the president which meant he had
submitted himself to Nigeria. He urged
Igbos to fight for their right to be
successful in Nigeria and not try to break
away from it.
He said: Nnamdi Kanu and Ralph
Uwazurike, who are now agitating for
Biafra, were born in the 1980s. I was a boy
of about 15 years during the war. I didn’t
go to war, but when federal troops
entered Port-Harcourt, I trekked for about
35 kilometres from Port-Harcourt to Igita.
We were running like the refugees you
now see in the North-East.
They would shell some places and we
would take cover. All of us would fall into
gutters and other dangerous places.
People were abandoning their children.
Nobody wants that type of thing again.
Uwazurike, Kanu and his sister don’t know
anything about Biafra, and they have not
read any book written on Biafra. If they
had read books on Biafra, they would have
known why the agitation failed and
whether it can rise again. They would
know whether the circumstances
prevailing now were the same thing then.
They are quite different. If these boys
talking of Biafra had read Achuzie’s book,
they would ask why Nnamdi Azikiwe (Zik
of Africa), at a particular stage, ran back to
Nigeria. It was Zik who took Ojukwu to get
the recognition of Tanzania, Ivory Coast
and other countries for Biafra. Why did he
(Zik) go back to Nigeria and declare to the
whole world that there was no genocide in
Biafra?
It is instructive that the late Biafran
warlord, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu
Ojukwu joined the National Party of
Nigeria (NPN) and told the whole world
that his mission was to reintegrate the
Igbo into the mainstream of Nigerian
politics.
So who is telling Kanu and Uwazurike and
the rest of them that there is still
something called Biafra? Ojukwu even
contested to be the president of the
Federal Republic of Nigeria. This means
that before he died, Ojukwu submitted
himself to the authorities of the Nigerian
government. It means that Biafra is dead
and buried.
Now, let us look at why Kanu is talking of
Biafra. On one hand, he said he wanted to
liberate the oppressed people that are
bound genetically and culturally by the
same value system. He started mentioning
Idoma people, Igbo people, the Efik,
Anang, Ijaw, Itsekiri, Urhobo, Igala and so
on. The Idoma have nothing to do with
the Igbo. These people he is mentioning
can never join the South-East to agitate
for Biafra. He cannot go to Warri and tell
them that they are Igbo. I remember that
when the Igbo were making noise during
the elections, Edwin Clark told them that
Jonathan did not need their votes to win
presidential election. And he will be
disappointed to believe what Asari Dokubo
is saying. Dokubo should be talking about
resource control, not Biafra. Recall that
the people of South-South respect the late
freedom fighter, Isaac Adaka Boro, a lot
because he never wanted to have
anything to do with the Igbo.
Unfortunately, I don’t know why the
University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) is
breeding all these militants. Isaac Adaka
Boro dropped out from the UNN, Kanu is
also a UNN dropout. I heard that Kanu
went to London because of strike in
Nigeria. He is a university dropout.
Kanu agreed that the Igbo have shops all
over Nigeria, and they are making profits
and are wealthy; so how can he say they
are oppressed? As far as I am concerned it
is the Igbo that are oppressing other
people all over Nigeria. They are
everywhere trading, including Maiduguri.
You see, the Igbo are no longer what they
were before the 1966 coup. They were
humble, meek and mild, but had the
courage of a lion. The claim that the Igbo
are being oppressed is not true. I served in
the Nigeria Police Force for 35 years and
nobody oppressed me. My wife is doing
business in Makurdi and nobody is
oppressing her. Igbo people are buying
plots of land all over the country. If you go
to Enugu today, no Hausa or Yoruba man
has been allocated any plot of land. It is
the same in Anambra and other eastern
states. But in the North, lands are
allocated to the Igbo. So no Igbo man
should be talking of oppression. They
should be humble wherever they are.
They should be meek and mild but have
the courage of a lion so that one day, the
Igbo man will contest election in Sokoto,
Maiduguri and so and win. That is what we
want.

I have been dating this girl for the past 4years, she later gained admission in to the University. I kept faith with her because I felt she is worth it. Her days in school, I realized her interest in talking to me kept dropping, inasmuch as I assisted her financialy, I really didn't care about the attitude until I travel to her school and invited her to the hotel I lodged, surprisingly she refuse to see me. I came back.
Funny enough I have not had sex with her because I believed in our future.
Recently she just came back from school and we went outing and I asked her if she had a guy in school, she admitted, yes. My entire system changed. I asked for sex she still refused me, then it became clearer to me that I mean nothing to her. I transport her to Lagos from school and even trying to buy her phone but my mind is made up on her.
Is there any remedy you guys can put up for me on her?
same shit happen to me. There's no remedy just move on bro.

Politics › Muslim Man Brutally Beaten For Converting To Christianity by Banter1(op): 10:14pm On Nov 20, 2015
A 49-year-old man who converted from
Islam to Christianity has been beaten
next to his home in Bradford, England,
UK.
Nissar Hussain, 49, who has six children
aged between seven and 23, believes he
has become a victim of a religious hate
crime after he was brutally beaten with a
pickaxe handle by thugs outside his
house.
Mr Hussain was hospitalised with a
fractured left knee cap and left hand
The assault, which was caught on CCTV
camera, shows Mr Hussain going outside
at around 5pm, when suddenly two
hooded attackers leapt from a car on the
other side of the road and start the
assault. The man is seen being repeatedly
hit with the weapon, punched and kicked
until his neighbours shooed the
thugs away.
Moments of the attack
Following the attack Mr Hussain was
hospitalised with a fractured left knee cap
and left hand. Lying in his hospital bed Mr
Hussain said: “I felt like I was holding on
for dear life. It all happened so fast that I
was unable to react. I remember just
walking out of the gate and putting my
foot off the kerb.
Next thing I saw was a pickaxe coming
towards me. On instinct I tried to cover
my head with my arms but the force of
the blow knocked me back and my heel
clipped the kerb to send me to the ground.
I also hit my head on the wall which gave
me a concussion but I was still conscious.
I continued to block their shots to my
head with my arms while on the ground
but as soon as they realized that, they just
began attacking my legs – it was then I felt
my knee explode.
Thankfully one of my neighbours came
over and the thugs went on their way. The
only thing was going though my mind was
I need to stay alive, to protect my head,
and to stay alive.”

I think you should blame Metuh who is playing politics with the unfortunate incident. The relevant security agency has not concluded investigation on the alleged assassination attempt and Metuh is already aware that APC sent the assailants. He even came up with a list of people that APC want to kill without any evidence. What Metuh is doing is just pure madness.
Nice one bro! I think Mr. Daura should invite Metuh for questioning and prove for this mischievous allegations.
