South South is four times more Developed in comparison to South east. They are more viable to be top in the world. Igbo Christians envy the south south and would like to merge it with their lands in the south east for the following reasons:

Tourism

Beauty

Access to the sea

Crude Oil

Agriculture

South is one of the best region in Africa and her multi cultural identity is simply amazing

Most people with the name Funmi I know are cool people but you just came to earth to dent this beautiful name
Shame on you

Anyone supporting a criminal is like him
I have never been a fan of this Nnamdi Kanu and this validates my view of him
How can you jubilate on the release of someone who made the lives of the common miserable?

Whiteangel1234:
igbo Amaka Abba Kyari plan to jail our son Orji Uzor Kalu have failed

Are you ok like this?
Your son? So you are a father to a criminal and a vampire (anyone who steals public fund impoverishing others and refusing to create better lives for the masses)?
@OP, where are the Abians?

layzie:
Did u say freed and acquitted?? Read well o, there's no acquittal, new trial will commence.

Oga forget politics, I doubt they won't free that guy.
This I believe is wrong cos that guy stole those monies and should be punished for it.
Mary Odili is swimming the ghost water, I hope she.doesnt turn into the habitat she now assumes

[quote author= post=89326574]Nigeria : A country of abracadabra.


Assuming it was a governor from the Northern part of the country that was free and acquitted this same manner, the children of hate, perdition and frustration (the enemies of the nation) wouldn't have allowed the cyberspace to rest till the end of the year shouting injustice.
But look at all the supporters of criminals keeping mute online and trooping out to celebrate in the same state that OUK looted dry.




They are Suffering and smiling peeps.
Supporters of criminals they are.



Nigerians are the problems of Nigeria.
END OF THREAD!!




True, the below confirms this.....

Matters arising............[/quote]Aunty where have you been?
Thought we would see you and your govt handing Nigerians good palliatives in this lockdown.
I know this is about Ganduje; atleast this guy went to jail, did your Ganduje smell court at all?
Btw, is Abacha now corrupt with all the repatriated loots?
Help me ask PMB this question above

tatatar:
You now agree she is a crook right?

Honestly, she is
For freeing this.criminal

SeverusSnape:
Name Checkers Association of Nigeria (NCAN), Eastern Zone, Northern Zone and Western Zone will be highly disappointed in this list, As it doesn't meet the criteria for proper scrutiny.

Why mention East whenever you wanna see your arguments?
So, Mary Odili is now East, abi? I hope she remains so till the.day you claim Igbos are landlocked.
Meanwhile, I just.dont like this Mary Odili of a person, she seems to be linked to every badly handled case in this country

Arrewa:
I will... I don't hate Igbos...

I'm just after some tribal and religious bigots

Lol
I understand how much your lies grows as much as your hate.
But keep it coming, you can't be worse than those before you

Nnamdi Kanu should stop this rubbish I beg.
He's already irritating

Throwback:
That you do not even understand what it means to be landlocked within the present Nigerian boundary, shows you are an illiterate that needs to be educated.

Is there any Igbo state or Igbo town that borders any neighboring country, thereby part of Nigeria's international boundary? No!

Is there any Igbo state or village that is bound by the sea, thereby exiting as an international delineation? No!

You say your villages exit to a River. Will you sail from that river and continue into Non Igbo territory because the river exits into the sea? What stops the Nupe, Berom, and Igala from sailing the same river from further upland and trying to pass through Biafra and eventually into Non-Igbo territory so as to access the same sea?

You are landlocked because by the time your miniature 5states were to secede from Nigeria, without the alliance of the Ikwere or other non-Igbo tribes that have access to the sea, you will be totally locked within Nigeria just like Lesotho is locked within South Africa.

Look at the map below, and see how trapped you are. I know it feels choking.

Simply put, you will be at the mercy of Nigeria.

You ended up sounding more uneducated
There are 49 landlocked countries in the world and are covered by the international land order & waterways rule. Even lands for citizens cannot be landlocked as there is a rule of "make way" no matter where your individual land is located.

helinues:
Chai, it pained you ..

Talk true

Lol
Is it about pain now?
I'll reply you, I'm not pained one bit cos as far as I'm.concerned the Igbos have risen from that war.
Till date, they are not worse on any indices in the country despite their undue advantage and where they are coming from.
I'm not pained but thankful to GOD

bamidelee:
Do you have their numbers or that of their PA? Kindly reach out to them. Am not their spokesman.
Pele

Aaaahhhhhh Bros, but I didn't need their PA's to see the bullion monies shared

LivingSage:
Adaogwashi1 babe where you dey?
Make I also greet u with this picture, see gbaja's see your brother's own
A whole speaker

Truly, this is pathetic how something much less than a cup of rice was packaged with a printed work. The Orji guy is mean and I know it's Abia state.
Abia State people should have a rethink on the people they vote and really protest against these guys.

bamidelee:
Give it Tinubu, he selects and work with best brains. Unlike the jewish pigs, dem no get .........

Lol
The so called "Jewish pigs" elect people based on majority as more civilised people and not the way of the primitives.
Here was what Gbajamaila gave some years back too (first pics) and compare to what a floor member at NASS also gave (2nd pics)
https://www.nairaland.com/5831843/senator-ifeanyi-ubah-commences-distribution
I'm asking this question not to attack the person of Tinubu as I don't have anything personal against him.
What has Tinubu done to help in this pandemic & his wife too?
Don't tell me he did secretly or to govt cos his bullion van didn't just dole out money to govt, it had people lining up the street from his house for a share publicly.

Golan007:
I'm only following the style of Rivers State people whenever issues crop up over there.

May I get a reference?
Bros, you lieoooo you are taking after PMB & APC for that's their way of leadership.
We really need a revolution, not change power but for people to understand what nation building is all about

LegendHero:
It was Eastern Region bro and that coup slaughtered majorly people from the Northern and Western Region. It paved the way for Ironsi to take over and some Igbos even went further and mocked the Hausa/Fulanis with the dead picture of their fallen hero in that coup.

Gowon that commanded the war is from the middle belt but yet we always call them Northerner. Infact a large percentage of the middle belt guys fought that war and yet we always term them as Northerner. I’m trying to show you that your argument about Nzeogwu being SS is weak. The main issue is that they killed all leaders of the other zones except the East and Ironsi became the Leader.

The first thing that drove me nuts was how Ojukwu after knowing he took a hasty decision used Awolowo (food rhetorics) as the cover up for his failure. He used Awo as the cover for his failure coz he feared the Igbos will blame him for that loss if they subject that war to critical thinking.

He sold the dummy that we were defeated coz of Awolowo and hence Yorubas are our enemy. He sold the BS to his people that Awo refused to give them food and they do no not question him as to why he depended on his enemy for food in the first place.

I don’t say you shouldn’t celebrate your heroes, but my own grievances is how you guys think you deserve any sympathy from us for what happened. We have none to give and I hope you don’t also show us any sympathy.

That’s fair enough!

Funny you
Ojukwu used Awo as a cover up?
May I get your source? Bros, Ojukwu never called out Awo.
He had his failures and I've read his own account and the only people he called out was the British who came with an oil-deal proposal.
Who told you the SE resorted to Nigeria then for food?
Bros, they were loosing and food storage were bombarded with bombs already and all food imports was banned. The British had world power and assisted with this, there's no argument Biafra needed food from Nigeria at all; get your facts right. Food came from Togo & some other African countries especially by Red Cross.

Now you resort to Eastern Region, no longer Igbos?
Bros, stop being funny and bigoted.
Bros if you go through my arguement you will understand the war wasn't my issue nor the retaliatory coup as I see the coup which killed Ironsi as "justified" my issue was why the pogrom?
You said Igbos mocked Great Sar'duana, right? Same game you guys play till date; GEJ had it tough and the hate against him was much (mind you I voted against GEJ in 2015 for PMB though I never supported the hate speeches against him) and today you call any anti-PMB stance hate that even the media was clamped down for promoting hate for call-ins?
You guys now behave as if you were not the proponents of the hate. Yes, there was animosity already between Igbos & the Hausas and Sar'duana made it plain. When he died, he was mocked by Igbos no doubt.
I've never made a case for Ironsi nor the coup plotters as I see the murder of Sar'duana and wife eutess and wicked.
Are you aware that T. Y. DANJUMA was also Irinsi's right hand man? The coup also had other tribes but the only issue they also had with the coup was just 1 Igboman was murdered which I believe again was a funny move and the counter-coup justified.

LegendHero:
In all this, rather than face the North that caused the misfortune on Igbos during those dark time, you guys will be blaming the Yorubas.

You ganged up and killed Western region premier and other Yoruba top military guys. The North retaliated and massacred a lot in their domain while the Yorubas chose not to do that. You Igbos were safe in the west during those period but YET Yoruba is your enemy.

Col. Banjo fought for Biafra and led the advance that captured mid-west. Just because he was not able to advance through Ore axis, Ojukwu had to frame him up and ended his life. Yet Yoruba is the enemy.

After the war, the people you call brothers in Port-Hacort seized your houses while the Yorubas in the West gave you back your properties and even collected some of the house rent and gave it to the owners after the war. Yet, Yoruba is the enemy.

Hear this, the time of being politically correct has ended and the Yorubas will no more care about other people feeling. I don’t care what happened in that war and I will still say Ojukwu did not plan well before declaring that war. Even if the war is inevitable, he should at least plan well and gather the required alliance and supplies to prosecute that war. Rather he resorted to chest beating and telling the international press that he will crush Nigeria in few month. The same fake boasting the Igbos always do till now.

Why will a leader use propaganda to lead his people to the slaughterhouse? His strategy is wack. He depended on the stolen Nigeria pounds and he forgot the fact that the Nigeria side can change their currency. After that, he failed to secure a route for food for his people knowing well that the SE can’t feed itself in that war. He willingly kill his people coz of ego.

It got to a point where Azikwe has to severe ties with him and even started calling Ojukwu a rebel in the international press. Coz the young Ojukwu was busy wasting the life of his brethren in a war that was already lost. He later ran off after all those atrocities and still came to contest for the presidential election of a nation he fought against. Where is the honor in that?

Like I said, you know not what you say, "You ganged up and killed Western region premier and other Yoruba top military guys"
So, Kaduna & Ifeajuana from Delta state what you today call the SS &. disagree to be Igbo is now the gang up?
Truly, I'm against Igbos who hold some animosity against the Yorubas with your role in that war but what I hear most (not all) of you guys say here make it hard to stand against. What's your bearing?
SS are not Igbos but you must insist Igbos carried out the first coup.
Yes, Ojukwu wrongly murdered Banjo and I see that as heartless on his part but you are not saying the truth. Bros, Ojukwu murdered both Banjo & Ifeajuana cos they were at a time negotiating with Nigerian authorities then behind Ojukwu which he saw as a threat. He could have just trusted these men who sacrificed a lot but he killed both Banjo & Ifeajuana cos he also believed they were the ones who involved in the coup and might do same to him since they were in talks with NGA govt then

Golan007:
Lagos is APC and APC is Lagos.

Kai!
So Sanwolu should work for only APC members?
Nawaoooooo
Una way of reasoning sef

LegendHero:
Have you seen any country that is giving food to her enemies during a war? Do you think war is chicken and salad?

During the USA civil war, the union army laid a blockade against the rebels and the rebels were only able to survive because the south is fertile for land. But yet they still suffered some casualties.

You Igbos like hitting on the wrong person. Instead of you to blame the foolish Ojukwu that went to war without the required logistics and means to procure food for his people. You’re here blaming your enemy for not showing you love during the war.

Yes Awolowo exterminated you guys because he justified the saying of all is fair in war. If you like wail from now till eternity, it doesn’t diminish the late Awo’s glory and his impact on the sands of time.

If you need any sympathy for your loss in the war, you will get NONE from the Yorubas. So grow up and stop all this emotional bullsh*t about Awo not giving you food.

Foolish Ojukwu for standing against injustice and insisting a pogrom of thousands of humans in the North should stop?
You guys must be crazy or insensitive.
I don't just understand some of you guys here and I wish most Igbos here should stop replying thes stupid comments here.
A pogrom even non-Igbos like Soyinka spoke against?
A pogrom that started after Ironsi (I believe it was a just retaliation on IRONSI) was killed but what justified the murder of millions of Igbos up North?
If it happens again today, I will still go to war.
Yeah, the North would have no fear today to kill in such a manner again if that war didn't happen.
Ojukwu never opted for war as seen in his willingness to negotiate going back and forth to Aburi, Ghana but the masses in the East were done with the killings and really urged for a fight back.
Shebi, herdsmen are killing you guys too?
Why Amotekun?
Noooo, na your "foolish" governors wey carry Amotekun come na dem we suppose blame?
In a military regime, Amotekun would have been stifled by same North.
Well I leave you guys cos the world knows better

gwafaeziokwu:
That is the fact I want you to swallow.

You deployed the tactics of killing 2 million children of your opponents in order to force their hand and win the war ( however unconventional it was) , and then declared that all is fair in war.

Why do you lots then have problem with Chinua Achebe writing the obvious in his last bullet to a failed nation.

Why the summersaults of denials and name callings till this day. What exactly are you afraid of.

You needed to starve 2 million children to death in order to win the war fine, why don't you own up to that tragedy.

The truth is that you lots were beginning to get away with the borrowed pretentious robe of saints with no hand in the tragedy against Igbos between 1966 -1970. Until Achebe jolted everyone to reality.

Bros, I'm not against the starvation tactics as also some Biafran soldier carried out some extreme acts

helinues:
Where did Ojukwu get the money for the arms and ammunition?

Children know nothing
Oil was sold for arms.
In PH, there was a makeshift refinery what you whole lots cannot do was done by few men of old technology then.
My own dad was among the artillery defending the refineries when they were bombed by British fighter jets.
See, some of you are so daft and lack complete knowledge that feats achieved by others seem impossible to you that you disregard it and lie against it.
Oga, so the "Ogbunigwe" bomb was also bought?
Bros, citizens were building ammunitions and other equipments locally.
In fact, my village Uga had a makeshift airstrip for landing of jets built by same Biafra.
This argument from you is so lame and only an attempt to bring the struggles and ingenuity if the Igboman but sorry for you're so late as it's already a fact everyone including non-Nigerians know

helinues:
Choi, I really love this kind of thread that exposed una lies..

Exactly how you love the thread like others that attacked Igbos.
Oga, there's COVID-19 and right thinking humans are searching for cures or seeking how to help the poor but you're here with you N30k allowance searching for arguments against facts?
Be useful with your life at least

helinues:
People had pre knowledge about the war..

Who started the unnecessary attacks? Was is not your boyscott Biafra army?

Daft is an understatement
So civilians of eastern extracts were being killed in droves up North without the authorities doing anything to stop it and you expect the East to fold it's arms and watch?
Oga, threaten or even approach my home to attack, I'll give you full dose to protect my family and yes I don't mind loosing my life for it; atleast you'd go home regretting you ever attacked

madridguy:
Brilliant article. Good job @ OP

Did you read this article and agree with it?
Kai!
Why I believe Nigeria will never prosper is sentiments inclined towards tribe and religion.
Which war has ever occured and people were ready to have evacuated their wealth?
Besides, the Igbos who left the North did so in haste, how could they have gone with their monies?
Bros, they were being killed and were running for their lives.
Ask any of your relatives living up North during the riots or onslaughts in the North how well they were prepared for it

SLAP44:
"This would mean that before an Igbo man would leave Kaduna, Lagos or Ibadan, he would have withdrawn all his money before crossing into Biafra."

I stopped reading at this point, I have never read such hogwash in all my life

I have a question for the OP, in the days leading to the mile 12 massacre of Yorubas by Fulanis in Lagos in 2015, how many of you withdrew all their money before fleeing all the way to Mowe and walking to Ibadan on foot?

Answer Me First

You can imagine the rubbish the OP wrote and seem intelligent to himself.
The counter-coup on IRONSI happened unexpectedly and killings in the North started immediately.
How would one preempt all those, sell their assets and leave with cash when there's a killing spree?
Some people are just empty upstairs

Ayospanish:
so what should we do?is stroke a death sentence?or its meant for the poor?are u sure u and ur dad is normal?many question to be asked

Don't see everything with a dint of fight
There's nothywrong or malicious with this post
Noticing something on someone is t a crime oga

Op, are you ok?
You put up a useless YouTube video where you're talking as evidence of Kuka's speech?

NDSMELODY:
here is my solution

Well done Melody

Helinues and co come and see
Tomorrow you'd say some people are chest waters and noise makers

YorubaPrince:
Okoro savages don buy market..

Don't you think this is nothing as NK has presented himself live?
There's no buying of market here
Meanwhile, I just wish people stop giving this NK guy relevance; inasmuch as I agree with very few of his facts and against oppression in Nigeria, I still disagree with him largely on his attitude and lies

What does this errand boy mean by this, "We would also like to state that during his tenure as President of Nigeria, Dr Goodluck Jonathan extended every courtesy to former Presidents and Heads of state because he believed and still believes that promoting, projecting and protecting Nigeria’s sovereignty and the image is the paramount duty of her government because it is not possible to belittle Nigerians without belittling Nigeria.”?
