During my days at NMS i was told that all military equipments used by biafrans were imported

When the Biafrans themselves were under blockade by Nigeria

Stinking lies to cover their sorry asses

dadaha:
don't praise yourself over nothing, those are refurbished tanks and weapons of World War II supplied by France. Biafra never manufactured any weapons. The ogbunigwe is a mere crude landmine that was so unstable that it was lethal to the makers. The war was only lost because of greed. They were so greedy they even killed the only yoruba in their army, Victor Banjo, who took over Benin city just in a day

Your post shows how suicidal it is to involve Yoruba in whatever you're doing... They'd simply betray you and get on with it

jelal007:
Oga,u can LIE oo. U're the kind that'll believe anything. Chaaiiii, how can u eliminate an entire division of over 5000 men with that? Says who murtala proceeded to Britain on self imposed exile? LINUS MBA.lies full ur blood.

Go and read....the info is all over the place if you can scratch a bit

cstr15:
Don't tell me chemical engineering is still banned in UNN in 2016. That would be madness and spit in the face of one naijerians like you.
I heard about someone wanting to go for masters in chemical engineering at UNN.

That's what befuddles me about the vitalis guy...he has seen first hand the discriminatory policies initiated by Nigeria on Igbos but still has the effrontery to shove down our throats the concept of one Nigeria
Some Igbos truly are fantastically stūpid

mrvitalis:
Am a unn graduate of mechanical Engineering and some of the people that did this things were my lectures, the lab u are talking about was in unn, it was bombed by the Nigerian army
Obonijwe was developed by unn professors that's why unn was not allowed to offer chemical engineering for over 50 years now

Please I urge u to visit PRODA in enugu and also SEDI in enugu too then u will understand the technological advances of Igbos

Is it true
I've heard before that the Nigerian government doesn't allow UNN to offer certain courses bkos of the role they played in the war but I didn't know it was this serious...

Too shameful we're still held back by Nigeria

Aigbofa:
Cameroon shares a border with Nigeria, Cameroon was a French colony, France was sympathetic to Biafra. Please connect the dots.

Cameroon was independent of France bro you don't have to resort to lies in order to buttress your weak points....

new2020:
Typical yorubba...can't contain their envy of Igbos. Keep disgracing your kinsmen!

As in eh... Their hatred of anything Igbo is truly suffocating

Aigbofa:
Those were parts bought from the international market and crudely put together by the Biafrans. If those parts were indeed made in Biafra what happened to the foundries that made the parts? Did anyone destroy any factory after the war?
I don't understand why people are lying to themselves.

Which international market Some people and how they talk sef
Which market would they buy from when their territory was blockaded by enemy troops under the commands of Adekunle, Muhammad and Bissala.
Moreover the foundries where destroyed by the enemy and any attempt to harness those technologies were discouraged by the Nigerian leadership on the pretext it'd be construed as resurrecting Biāfra
You actually are the one lying to yourself

kettykin:
The information is not hidden at all it is there on the Internet https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abagana_Ambush
So devastating was the brutal slaughter of the 2nd division of the army that murtala mohammed was relieved of his command of any division and went on a self imposed exile .

The ogbunigwe was again used to halt the advance of the nigerian army during the operation o.a.u
All though through combat means the biafra forces again reduced the size of the 3rd Marine Commando commanded by Benjamin Adekunle from 35000 to a mere 300 soldiers.

You're a real student of the Biafran war

With 35000 men,a prudent commander would have conquered owerri, Aba and umuahia in operation oau but due to adekunle's recklessness he could only capture owerri and half of Aba. When Biāfra started their southern rainy season offensives,Owerri was completely surrounded and laid siege to while Aba was liberated from the enemy

Obasanjo who succeeded Adekunle and ended the war,initiated the very final offensive(there were many final offensives actually ) with over 120000 troops which split Biafra into two in December 1969 and was crucial to collapse of resistance by the January 1970.

kettykin:
The ogbunigwe is my favourite of all biafran weapons, this weapon was used by an unknown major jonathan uchendu to wipe out the entire 2nd division of the nigerian army on march 31 1968, killing more than 5900 soldiers of the army leaving murtala mohammed and a few soldiers to narrowly escape after which murtala mohammed proceeded on a self imposed exile to Britain where he was a until the end of the war.

This weapon was purely a biafran invention and has no western world replica

Hahaha
You forgot to mention the over 10000+ soldiers MM lost at the battles of Onicha...after conquering the Midwest and executing the asaba genocide, MM lost close to 20000 soldiers in the combined battles of Onicha-Ado and Abāgana

TheGoodJoe:
Orientation.

So, someone like me in Port-Harcourt who appreciates, respect and adores Oby Ezekwesili will massacre Igbos? The ones in Lagos? What of Nigerians overseas that respect her?

Even in the North, there are a lot of nice, respectable, honest and Selfless people who will never massacre Igbos.

Madam Oby fought a good fight and there are millions of Nigerians who are grateful for her Selfless Services and sacrifices.

Enyi
What breeds orientation is circumstance...

Is it not the millions of Nigerians that admire obiagēri in the North were quick to decapitate brijjet agbahime in kano..just bkos she asked a praying malam to shift away from her kiosk.

The only people who need your sermon are the half breeds,who believe their blood is need to service this sham called Nigeria.... Real Igbos don't do that shit! L

No state in the SE is up to 8000km²...I wonder why they'd now expect us to give lands for grazing when states like Niger and Bornu with areas averaging 80000km² are there.


Lemme not say anything about the coward occupying government house,Enugwu

TheGoodJoe:

Oby is a successful and respected woman. A brilliant intellectual and one of the few people in the country we know thinks of how this country can move forward. She has innovative ideas and a woman Nigerians can be proud of.

Baffles me how you can call her a fool. She has seen appointments in her life. Juicy ones. It is people like you who breaks head for appointments. She has not cried out for one.

So you can abuse her but she has the respect of Millions of Nigerians.

Millions of Nigerians that won't mind massacring her people at the smallest whim

Korom akuko ozo biko

AreaFada2:
I think it is because Igbo girls are super intelligent and maybe they see way ahead of most others. Like Zik, Nkrumah and some others did regarding how Nigeria should be. But in the current situation in 9ja, people simply see it as naivety.

They're idealistic which is good on its own right especially if Igboland was an independent nation state... But in the Nigerian scenario its plain stupidity..and nature has no place for those who refuse to adjust in whatever environment they find themselves

MadamExcellency:
What have your investments got to do with declaration of sovereignty?
The right to own property is a United Nation Universal human right.

Must Ndigbo continue suffering in silence and mortgage their future to uncertainty because a few among them live and do business in territories outside Igboland within Nigeria?

Why do Ndigbo in diaspora (Overseas) support Biafra while few selfish individuals in Nigeria (outside the East) fear for what become of them and their business after Nigeria is split?

Selfishness is Evil

I used to think that the vitalis guy you quoted was objective but his post you quoted has shown that he's very selfish and evil minded...imagine saying that Igbos should continue to feed their blood to Nigeria so that it can remain one

mrvitalis:
I hope these people k ow what they are asking for??

Igbos have the largest investment outside our region as far as am concerned we should be fighting for one Nigeria...

Fighting for a "one Nigeria" that needs to be continually fed Igbo blood in order to survive Sorry I don't participate in such stupidity

Though coming late,I think ohaneze should ask first of all for the deamalgamation of Nigeria, at least this would separate us from this savages.
Another is the formation of an Igbo militia that'd cover the over 120LGs of Igboland from igbanke in the West to itigidi in the East and from obolo eke in the North to Igwenga in the South.
For every Igbo, Igbo interests should come first before that of Nigeria

Teespice:
awwww.

I guess you are blind to realities.

Which reality?

salabscholar01:
I respect this woman... She is an activist and that take everything meaningful at heart. I still could not see reasons why some people still believe that services to Nigeria must at long be compensated with juicy political positions.. Why? Not until this habit is changed, we still may not go far in this country. I never heard her complaining before, others are staring from the sidelines only to hear she is already compensated by the FG...Please we need to change this ideology.

You're not complaining bkos your people who participated in the dance of shame with her have been rewarded with plum jobs.
Nigeria is a country not worthy of patriotism so anything you do for Nigeria should be properly rewarded

Enuguboy4nsk:
yes your popsi,mumsy and did i forget u ursef are all animals D

No bro that's childish

OkoNDOoBo:
Do you expect them to start drilling 1 mllion barrel even at least it is better than imo and Abia that have being drilling for years and it is not up to 5000 barrels

Why'd it be up to 5000 brl when they annexed our oil rich lands to Rivers in 1976.…if ukwa South(oyigbo) was still in Abia, the state would have been among the top five oil producing States in Nigeria
All Nigeria cares about is strangulating the Igbo nation

ANewUser:
Open your eyes and see clearly.

Telling a Muslim to open his eyes on islamization is like telling a camel to pass through the eye of a needle... It can't happen

MrTour:
Please tell IPob, TwoPob, ThreePob, FourPob and Re-Ipob they are on their own. We don't need disunity, we need solid reforms and transformation.

And you gave you the right on behalf of Igbos to speak about IPOB?

President99:
Guy cool! it should have been "SE & SS to boost economy of Biafra" since U guys say Biafra is for both SE n SS. Ain't SS n SE one again? or it has become glaring to U that SS won't joins guys?

If not for 40% of Igboland still remaining in the SS,who'd give a damn about the SS?

Kingzy4pep:
Pat Utomi and Tony Elumelu hails from Delta.. So, what's their name doing on that list?

*just asking*

Anioma is included in the scheme...so its natural they represent the Western Igbos

chrisxxx:
U see why we the SS feel comfortable being in Nigeria. U people nurse devilish animosity towards us.U still feel pains some parts of u were annexed by us.

I didn't even say the whole SS Igbo...just the areas that was stolen from the East central state in 1976 and yet you're panicking
Bro, you don't have to be sentimental about this... Lemme ask you Are you not tired of the purported attachment of SE to SS I myself am tired of it but still can't help it bkos 40% of Igboland is in the SS.
Some of your SSners claim that there are no Igbos in the SS...and my aim is to make that claim true by removing the remaining 40% of Igboland still found in the SS.
When this is achieved, no SE would attach to you anymore

LordVoldemort:
One step at a time bro....dont want to start picking up fight with ur allies when u don't even have the resources to do so.

I didn't say with immediate effect

Enuguboy4nsk:
please which part of east central state was annexed to cross river

Itigidi and parts of Abi LG on the Ebonyi side of river cross was carved into CRS in 1976. Before 1976,itigidi and those aforementioned areas were parts of the East central state.

They should also strategize on how to recover territories of the old East central state that were annexed to Rivers and Cross River States together with the modalities that'd see the creation of Anioma as either the 6th SE state or 7th SS state of Nigeria.
This has been long overdue though
