Really? U no sabi history. Gen. Benjamin Adekunle aka Black Scorpion was the one that tormented Biafrans the most. Not that i am proud of it  but war is war. OBJ took over from him. Ask those who were soldiers then. Besides even in peacetime, Col Adekunle Fajuyi chose to die rather than give up his guest an Igbo man - Gen Aguiyi Ironsi.

I agree with you. Dont mind these noisemakers, many of whom are spewing out hearsay and causing disaffection among tribes when we all know that every tribe has its good, bad and ugly.

Eko Ole is demented Osaka swine who unfortunately has disciples of uneducated clowns. The only phrase the devilish swine could remember is “Sucks to be ibo for real”, a gutter language that resonates with glorified gutter fools such Eko Ole.

 
deplee has inflated the statistical database of lazy and moronic scholars out of Nigeria who dwelled on innuendos and fabricated falsehood. The bolded has spoken volumes about the character named deplee.

call me names, don't care cos over the years i ve always stand behind the truth and as a result of my action,i ve been tagged unpatriotic fellow.

I m still wondering why we (IGBO) keep saying we were killed by Nigerian soldiers when we all knew thatcol coward Ojukwu led our kinsmen to their untimely death. The annoying part of the whole story is the fact that coward Ojukwu ran away while his kinsmen re being killed as a result of his stupidity.

How on earth did we expect the nigerian soldiers to fold their arms while biafrans were shooting @ anyting on sight except our kinsmen? c'mon guys,i m not hypocrite,i ll say the truth,we got what we deserved. U never heard Germans complained of genocide when they knew how the war started and their son's role in the war. You don't start a fight and complain of being beaten at d same time.

Let the truth be told,if we were opportuned then to secede from Nigeria,nothing would ve changed from the way things are being runned now because with monthly allocation from the Federal Govt,our governors re not(ve not) doing anything for the betterment and development of our region.



Finally,i think i must not fail to say that we need to stop clamouring for a Igbo presidential candidate for 2015 election. How has our people @ home(east) benefitted from all these looters called politicians? check this out,we have our kinsmen in the best positions of jonalthan administration,how has our people benefit from it? tell me if you know,i guess your answers re as good as mine. Must d candidate come from south east? capital NO!!!!! and the same thing applicable to other regions. Let look for the best among us(all nigerians) and our destinies ll take a new course.

I seriously wonder if you are of Igbo extraction. Nobody with Igbo blood flowing in his her veins would display stupidity with defiance the way you did with the above post. Who would want to call you names when there is no name suitable for your description?

Going by the manner in which you stood up skewed acquired knowledge, I wonder if you have ever opened any historical books in order to view sketched pictures meant as illustrations.

[quote author=alj_harem link=topic=786156.msg9397774#msg9397774 date=1319314186]Hausas are not like that, from this I know you do not know them.

In every society, there are miscreants and touts.

The present day OPC members are the touts

the present day Ijaw Youths are touts

The present people that doing the bad acts are the touts. It is not the people per-say

here is ojukwu's comment[/quote]I do not know which Hausa, Fulani, Kanuri, Nupe, Bachama, Tiv, Birom, Idoma or Igala you referred in your post. However, the all the members of the listed group that marched toward the eastern region of Nigeria in 1967 shouting and singing “Kill nyemiri double pay” are worse than miscreants.   

Again the speech where you cull the excerpt you posted was the part of Ahiara Declaration made in 1969.

[quote author=alj_harem link=topic=786156.msg9397650#msg9397650 date=1319312666]can you imagine, is he not inciting hate against the hausa and the fulani people ?

Why are you talking like this ?[/quote]How could Ojukwu be inciting hatred against Hausa and Fulani people? When Ojukwu made the speech, every moronic Hausa or Fulani person who can carry AK47 was marching towards eastern region of Nigeria and singing “kill nyemiri double pay”.

Eko Ile:
One stood and fight to the death like a real man while the other one ran like a coward and sissy punk. There you have it.

Shut up your putrid loudmouth. An inherent coward from the lineage of uncountable cowards has effrontery to refer to battle-tested figure as sissy punk. I shall bet a reasonable amount that a gudgeon with moniker, Eko Ole, has never touched a BB gun in his or her miserable life.

T8ksy:
Pray tell us, what are you struggling with? You claimed here that NCNC won the western regional house of assembly election in 1951, outright.

All am asking for proof of this staement. Give us a figure, at leaast. how many seats was won by NCNC?

Carpet-crossing was a consequence of the election. If NCNC won outright then there might have been a case of carpet-crossing but you have to prove that NCNC won,

first. However, it seems you can't prove nada so just forget about the issue of carpet-crossing jo.

I still maintain, you dede, are a pathological liar and when caught out starts ducking & diving like a slimy git same as zik of africa did.

Must be an inherent trait!

Every domesticated dog in Nigeria knew the genesis of carpet-crossing in Nigeria. I do not know which of you that is a pathological liar, the dogs or you that continue to lie about the essence of carpet-crossing on the floor of western regional house of assembly.

Eko Ile:
Says the despicable dirty old man with zero moral fiber.

You dirty young man and a Woodstock peeping tom has effrontery to join issues on this subject matter. Let me inform a drooling gull such as you that I spent years in Lagos where the moral culture is better imagined than explained, Olodo.

It is not an oddity that a sex-starved jackass such as you dimmed it necessary to cast aspersion on the personality of Gov. Chime of Enugu State based on story its veracity is pitifully doubted, Oloshi Oloriburuku.

T8ksy:
In one of your posts, you claimed Zik won outright. How many seats did zik and hic NCNC party won to make you claimed he won "outright"? He needed 41 for a majority win. So how many seats did NCNC won? 50? 60? So, mr "shameless liar", do you have a figure for this your "outright win" or as per your character, its another bogus lie.

I have labored relentlessly to give you the benefit of doubts that NCNC did not win majority seats into the western regional house of assembly during 1951 regional election. But the weight of Yoruba tribal and inventive issue of carpet-crossing seems to douse my eagerness. I honestly suggest you revisit the issue of carpet-crossing with courage.

T8ksy:
And who's stopping you now? [b]Please go and take your despicables traits with you.[/b]I look forward to the day when there will be no ibo man or woman in my region.

It takes one to understand another. I guess like the despicable trait your forbearers displayed at Ilorin and continue to do so till today.

I will join if the imaginary revolution is meant for disintegration and end to the contraption called Nigeria.

@OP

You seem to compound your idiocy with infantile rant that uncovers your mental feebleness. I guess you will look more human than jackass when you get the comparable references correct.

noLongTinn:
Is this is a popular sentiment amongst Igbo people?

I am not sure but wished it is a popular sentiment among Igbo people.

[quote author=alj_harem link=topic=786156.msg9394988#msg9394988 date=1319283950]Thank you, Now that u accepted this,; good. but others did not call for Nigeria to split since everyone loved one another and there was no point for Nigeria to split just because Igbo ran things back then.

So now that it more or less equal of which Igbos still contribute a major work force in Nigeria, why can't Igbos chill then.

Although I understand that it is hard to forget the war, given than some of u maybe even you lost a family member in the war, it is not an easy pill to swallow I must say. But chill, Igbo will soon be the president whether we like it or not and he can show us Nigerians the way.

I would call for SNC where each region control it's own affairs[/quote]Let me disabuse your mind on the issue of who led Nigeria or did not. Historically, whether adulterated or not, Igbo man had never been the head of federal government of Nigeria for more than six months of 51 years of Nigeria’s existence. So what era do you have in mind when Igbo ran things in Nigeria?

I do not care if Igbo extraction is installed leader of government from tomorrow onward, my beefs with anything Nigeria are clear cases of inequality and injustice.

It is funny SNC is now a cache phrase for every deluded Nigerian. When Ojukwu elucidated the significant of SNC where each region control it's own affairs in Aburi, Ghana in 1966, the ninnies from Nigeria on attendance were more concerned on the personality of the young man than substance of his message.

I am for disintegration of Nigeria and do not care the number of pieces it will pan out.

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=787048.msg9393006#msg9393006 date=1319247020]Governor Sule Lamido of Jigawa State, in this interview with SHOLA ADEKOLA, speaks on why violence seems to be the order of the day in some places in the country and other issues. Excerpts.


[b]Many are wondering why your government thinks Jigawa needs an airport at a time other basic needs are competing for attention?
[/b]By the ratings of the so-called market agencies, the in thing today is commerce and business and in commerce you have to move very fast. Since Jigawa is the most peaceful in the federation, it has all the potential to make business thrive with availability of land, and cheap labour, an enabling environment and is secure. It is an investment destination. It is an emerging market with good climate. What we desire most now is an airport in the state to ease movement of people and investors into and out of Jigawa State to transact business. We are very close to Cameroun, in the East, very close to Chad in the North, Kano in the East. It has beautiful scenery, good climate and is an investors haven. People here are anxious to reach the world and the only means today is to have an airport. For example, if you are coming from Abuja by air, you have to disembark in Kano and come to Jigawa State capital, Dutse, by road and the roads linking us with Kano are very bad. It is horrendous. The Federal Government has made a commitment to build an airport for the state. We are, therefore, looking forward to the fulfilment of that commitment. If people like Bill Gates want to come to Jigawa as he has planned to come to assist us in the fight for polio eradication campaign, he cannot come now because there is no airport through which his plane can land.

By whatever criteria, Jigawa needs an airport to open up our state to industrial development, aside from the massive road network construction currently going on. Opening up Jigawa is part of adding to the economic potential and the prosperity of Nigeria. We are building a road network. We are very low on Internal Generated Revenue (IGR). We depend largely on money from federation account. We depend on self- help to develop the state. We feel challenged to save ourselves. The lack of money should not be an impediment. We are agriculturally based. We have onions, sorghum, millet, melon, Arabic gum and nobody will come to Jigawa and help us. We have to resort to self- help. Not even our sister state, Kano can.

Land is our own oil. We are willing to give land to any interested investor. Within three months of applying for land, you are through with your certificate of occupancy. In emerging economy, agro based industry is important. We have the half a million hectares of irrigable land. The Federal Government is investing heavily in the Hadejia/Jamare River valley. Recently, during the visit of Vice President Namadi Sambo, N10 billion commitment was made to improve on the Hadejia/Jamare agro-based industry. When you put a thing like this in place, you trigger economic activities, you think of how to preserve them and get them to the market. Loans are being given to small scale farmers. The government is ever-willing to support any investor in this regard. Above all, the most important thing is that Jigawa is a peaceful state for investors because, no matter the attractions you have on ground to woo investors, if the state is always engulfed in crisis, no investor will want to come. We need to invest heavily in farming apart from other competing needs like health and education. Violence is not part of our culture. Commitment from home is important, how do parents bring up their children? Parents must take charge of their ward. It is a collective thing. A parent must be honest to his children. A child trusts, but if he discovers that somebody he so much trusts is lying, he feels dejected. This also goes into our larger society.



http://www.tribune.com.ng/sat/index.php/interview/5602-nigerians-are-greedy-selfish-sule-lamido.html[/quote]One of the major issues in Nigeria is lack of social equity on the part of central government. I guess Governor Sule Lamido of Jigawa State should ask what is it Jigawa has other states in the federation do not have as to extract such wonderful commitment from the Federal government to erect airport in Jigawa.

Equally, he cited that Federal Government is investing heavily in the Hadejia/Jamare River valley and during the visit of Vice President Namadi Sambo, N10 billion commitment was made to improve on the Hadejia/Jamare agro-based industry.

It is funny to notice the knack for Unclad disingenuous by Nigerians in certain governmental positions. Governor Sule Lamido of Jigawa State was able to point out two socio-politico-economic commitments by the federal government while many states in Nigeria can not point to one-story house supported by the same federal government. 

Federal government adamantly refused to erect airport in Imo State. However, the indigenes of Imo State in particular and Ndigbo in general decided to erect the airport in Imo State. There is no country that stands united when its citizenry is not treated equally.

[quote author=alj_harem link=topic=786156.msg9392615#msg9392615 date=1319239513]OK right, so from what I can get, you just do not want to be in Nigeria because of the different ethnic nations right !

Dede1 this is a quote from ojukwu himself

This is clear tribalism by Ojukwu himself and as such he wanted Nigeria back then when Igbos run things, but now that hausas and Ijaws with the fulani/yorubas are running things, you want out ? How is that possible ?

How my brother ?

Dede1 you hate Nigeria not because of the idea of different Nation but because Igbos no longer run things at least accroding to what Ojukwu is implying here.[/quote]I do not know the historical era of Nigeria that informed your opinion who ran Nigeria and when. If an Igbo extraction had run Nigeria to the ground as currently indicated by meaningful indices, I would join Yoruba, Hausa, Kanuri or Fulani to call for disintegration of the cesspit called Nigeria.

The simplest things such as social equity and localization of federal presence are determined by cutthroat tribal and hateful politics.

Eccentric Man

[quote author=alj_harem link=topic=786156.msg9392142#msg9392142 date=1319232573]Dede1, I am not in your mind and I can not really say how you feel about Nigeria or Biafra.

From all I can get from u as a poster, you seem to not hate Nigeria but also you want Nigeria to acknowledge their wrong against Biafra and it should be put in history. Also you may want Nigeria to view compensate Igbos in various forms ie capital, presidency etc right just a guess.

If so, then I urge you to also look at it from the Yoruba and Fulani point of view, try to remove the Igbo lens and view it from the yoruba and fulani point of view and you would see reason in what I am saying[/quote]I detest Nigeria for sure because retrogressive form is not in my nature. I would rather have Biafra or Republic of Igbo land any day than Nigeria. It is funny you urged me to look things in Yoruba, Hausa, Fulani, Tiv, Edo, Urhobo, Itsekiri, Esan or Ijo point of view. What point of view if I may ask?

All I wanted is a different nation state from the ethnic nation states you mentioned. Must all the ethnic groups in so-called Nigeria be housed in one country? I do not want the presidency of Nigeria or the imaginary compensation you cited.

[quote author=alj_harem link=topic=786156.msg9392053#msg9392053 date=1319231537]rubbish, so that young minds like you and others can keep harbouring hate in your hearts abi

maybe you need to read the article again, to tell me if it should be in nigerian history


what history are we to learn from this, that the hausa/fulani are evil while Biafra were the angels and were good right ?

do not think this is a one side epistle that paints an ethnic group as bad and the other as good ?[/quote]The one I termed a very good history my friend. What reason should you deduce that forced Mr. Harold Wilson, the British Prime Minister during era, to declare “Biafra must not be allowed to stay and be defeated”?

[quote author=alj_harem link=topic=786156.msg9391745#msg9391745 date=1319227341]give me ONE reason why this should be on the front page ?[/quote]Does this nonsensical question deserve an answer?

Kobojunkie:
Oh! Wait, you will not believe EYE WITNESS accounts telling you how he actually died. But you chose to BELIEVE RUSSIAN(note russians are not even there with NATO) story that tells you that he was killed by a US Drone You choose not to believe VIDEOS that clearly show a wounded Ghaddafi being hauled away by Libyans but you believe russia, from far away russia, saw it all go down and know a U.S drone called Hellfire "MADE THE KILL"? ROFLMAO!!!

Again, I ask, are you the genius in your household?? 

You have no audacity to inject the word-genius into this discussion because you are a compound fool. Did you read where I even insinuated who or what should be believed that killed Gadhafi in my posts? Even the popular AK47 rifles seen being brandished by the Libyans are infinitely advanced invention to Africans.

Believe me, you look damn moronically idi.otic in your dumbass stream of thoughts and beliefs.

buzugee:
yeye man. you wan cover up ya exposed yansh there is no such thing as' trail the blaze'

Yeye Agege Motor Road Area Boy!!! What do you know about inventions? Lazy imitator, Oloshi,

Aigbofa:
Dede, lets feed our teeming population first before thinking of predator drones. We don't want any accidental discharge do we?
Small time now, you go hear say dede was accidentally hit by a predator drone. Nobody go no say na the pesin wey you steal im wife do am.

Pal, how body? I am not talking about manufacturing drones. Like you mentioned feeding our teeming population is fine with me but industrialized agriculture requires home grown invention regardless rudimentary nature.

buzugee:
ermmm you meant' BLAZED THE TRAIL'   OLODO RABATA

Olodo, this is the reason you should not be in a ballpark where invention is discussed. Even modern scripting is a wahala!!. Trailed the Blaze or trail blazed is action phrase while “Blaze the Trail” is idiomatic in nature, agbaya kekere.

Kobojunkie:
Yes ooo . . . . the deluded ones are those who actually admit to seeing him die after capturing him. Not you who was never there but are quick to believe instead a story that some US drone killed him, even after videos confirm he was captured alive and later killed by Libyans.

Are you like the genius in your house or what? ROFL

It is good to know your mental awareness is based on a blurred clip of video. No wonder you seem to vomit twisted craps on this forum.

buzugee:
stop exhibiting your inferiority complex. its not an attractive trait

I do not engage empty barrels in debates. However, there is absolutely nothing about exhibition of inferior mentality when a person exposes his or her weaknesses. If Nigeria has trailed the blaze in modern invention, please point it out to me or shut up.

Kobojunkie:
I no talk am? the Libyans wey dey there, kill am, no get sense . Na Nigeria conspiracy theorists and their chums get the answers in all cases. I knew some ninny was going to come in to declare this a fact. Where is @cap28 to cement all this for all.

If a gull such as you and fellow deluded Libyans were left to the manifest of your wit, Gadhafi would still roam the streets of Libya now.

buzugee:
huh ? seems to me like you are the one with the issues. you are advocating that we gauge the distance in intellect between ourselves and someone who makes murderous inventions to kill Gods creations ? you have definitely drank the koolaid brother. you are lost.

Please remove God from the earthly things. Invention is simply invention okay. Your attempt to inject morality into the issue is juvenile. If one can not invent murderous apparatus, one can not equally invent lifesaving ones. The same people you seemed to cringe on their inventive genius on the so-called murderous inventions kept you humanly sane with their numerous inventions.

It is beginning to down on me that Africans are the most empty-headed humans on earth. Instead of deliberating on the advance technological means that took out Gadhafi and gauge the distance between them in human endeavor and the humans who created such means, they are either busy dancing in the street like mor.ons or debating about the killing of African despot.

Nigerians are not even allowed to import small arms such as archaic revolver talk less of getting hold of modern semi-autos and teaching our kids and local fabricators, if any, the means of converting semi to full auto or manufacturing one. There is no democracy without a source of the power from the people. The aforementioned source does not include standing in queues and casting meaningless votes.

T8ksy:
Fyi, we yorubas have been dealing with the north long before your warlord's father was born.

We successfully resisted their attempt to subjugate us then, without anyone's help.

Did biafran troops "liberated" the midwest region or not?

Like i wrote on another thread, you are a shameless liar!

Go and answer my question (on the same thread), about the 1951 regional election in yorubaland which you and your ilk insisted was won by Zik the slimy git.

Another one of your myriad tales but whence caught out, start ducking and diving like your cold-hearted ikemba. 

You do not need to FYI me on Yoruba dealings with the Caliphate. I know the origin of Yoruba's cowardliness whenever northern region of Nigeria is mentioned. Of course, north and Caliphate dealt with Yoruba at Ilorin and Ogbomosho. I remembered a story which stated Ogbomosho was turned into Brothel by foot soldiers from Sokoto. Sometimes history tends to repeat itself.

I belonged to the school of thought that believed NCNC won the majority of seats during 1951 regional election in western region of Nigeria. However, few knuckleheads such as you believed otherwise. The burden of proof is on you who believed NCNC did not win the election. If you expect me to supply those Yoruba “orishirishi” names that won election into western regional house of assembly in 1951, you must be high on something, Bro.

[quote author=ekt_bear link=topic=785359.msg9383828#msg9383828 date=1319131195]1. There was indeed no Enugu, at least in the modern sense, before the colonialists.
2. The population is part of the point. Part of the reason Abuja was easy to develop is because it was sparsely inhabited farmland. Much like Enugu was sparsely inhabited when the colonialists met it. The same cannot be said of Ibadan.
3. Virgin lands is obviously not a comment about TODAY. But again a comment about what it looked like even as of the 1950s.

It is like comparing the width of the roads in say London (a very old and well-established city) to Phoenix, Arizona (comparatively quite younger).

Or the width of the roads in certain parts of downtown Houston to the width of roads out in the burbs. . .[/quote]You will go to any foolish length to concoct infantile conjecture about Ibadan or any town in southwestern region of Nigeria. I guess you realize Ibadan was not the capital square for a village empire such Oyo Empire. Even the colonist met Eko (Lagos) as a swampy acreage infested by mosquitoes and other creatures. There was colonialist presence in Ibadan until they visited Umuahia.

What is wrong with asking for more than one tea cup? In northern region of Nigeria that gave us Tafawa Balewa, a person can drink hot tea all day amidst terrible high temperatures. In contrast to well air-condition room where the conference was held in London, Balewa decided to go for the record.

T8ksy:
Prof. dede, una no tire yet with dis your infantile revisionism?

Yorubas don't give a phock about biafra- we just didn't want you "liberating" us!

No one is stopping you lot from declaring your "land of the rising sun", again.

However, just make you guys don't venture into our region for whatever reason else. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .fill in the blanks.

You will make a good standup comedian. It is a country such as USA can insinuate the instances of liberating anybody or country. It was not and shall never be tactical consideration to attempt to liberate group of people who would rather piss on their pants or scamper to neighboring country at sight of drunken soldiers from another region than standup against a sketched aggressor on piece of paper.

I suggest you drop your infatuation with word-liberation. Try to encourage your folks, less Ijebu-ode farmers and hunters, to standup manly against drunken soldiers from the northern region of Nigeria and quit shaking like dry leaves on the tree.
