Asour:
A trailer load was looted in Imo.

It would not make economic sense to fly onions would it. Tell yourself the truth.

If it did make economic sense, Onions would have been shipped (by flight) by now.

God help us.

Has anything made sense in Nigeria!?!

Lol

wolfenstein:

Hmm

I would love to get this for my younger bro, he is into programming, what's your payment plan like

Lol just like in the old

omonnakoda:
You are in a self constructed prison of hatred

Don't mirror yourself on me, I ain't you.

omonnakoda:
Your major problem is the walls you built with your mind. They are now a prison for you of your own making

You know nothing about me man or you wanna also argue that

omonnakoda:
Did it happen in Ibadan?

You needed to get that irrelevant point of nigerian taxes off your chest

You really cannot think in a straight line

Anyway that too is false

Lagos was NOT developed with Nigerian money. It has always been a NET contributor and always paid its way
https://www.nairaland.com/4144976/lagos-1898before-nigeria-not-oil

Ibadan!?! What the fk is that. Ok the brown roofs. Sorry Igbos don't dwell in brown roofs republic. Not have such as a property...

omonnakoda:
Where do you get your statistics from? IPOB?
If they were really worth that much why did they accept the twenty pounds?

It was not mocking or paltry at the time and till date it is the highest recorded such payment by a conqueror

The Nigerian pound in 1970 was at parity with the British Pound = 1:1

According to the Bank of England
Twenty pounds in 1970 = 316 pounds sterling today. That is neither paltry nor mocking in my view and is a huge burden for any country to carry at such a time
It was noble

Are you scared of IPOB... Is like you guys are really tormented.

Well is there in wikipedia about the biafra pounds.

Conqueror where was it written there where conqueror. Biafra wasn't conquered after all so you're wrong.

20 pounds remains a paltry sum and a mock giveaway. Buh that's past those that collected it and those that didn't are doing better now... Lol

So what's the fuss about

Op what are these?!!

omonnakoda:
How much was Biafran pounds?
What did the government do with it?
They were burnt!!
That is what they were worth

Paltry? Your opinion not mine

Mocking? I don't see that

Even if it wasn't recognized my major country it had strong intrinsic and extrinsic value that even when bank of biafra ceased to exist it exchange for 0.125 for 1 pound.

20 pounds was a paltry and a mocking sum whether you see it at that or not it doesn't matter, what matters is how the world and human with good conscience see it. Which you obviously lack one.

omonnakoda:
The Rivers issue is unfortunate but separate. What you people never admit is that this DID NOT happen in Lagos.
In that respect you are very similar to the Fulani you see courteous behaviour as weakness

I admit it did not, and it couldn't have happened owing to the fact that lagos was the capital. And was developed with nigerian taxes
Courteous behavior or daylight fraud!?!

omonnakoda:
Complaining and whining

is what brought it up



Nobody's savings were touched did not happen

Ei imcumbio probation qui dicit non qui negat

Lol who complained!?! Everybody was pointing out the atrocities of one scammer. The first yahoo boy Nigeria birthed.

omonnakoda:
At the end of the war Ibos turned up with their worthless Biafran pounds destitute looking to change them for Nigerian pound

The Nigerian government as a gesture of goodwill decided to exchange Biafran Pounds for Twenty pounds.

Each individual was given Twenty pounds no matter how much Biafran pounds he has.

So even if they exchanged it for naira, and we knowing how much was biafrans pounds then, you dare come there to praise the thief for mocking Igbos with a paltry sum of 20 pounds!?!

Well anyway here we are today.... Living and competing in the world.

omonnakoda:
If you are not complaining why are we discussing it?

Ask the op who created the thread and you coming for my mentions

omonnakoda:
Do you have evidence that savings were seized?

Why was 20 pounds paid then!?!

I know you know the answers yet u keep asking but not to worry, I will make you to answer your self

omonnakoda:
Actually Yes another Demi God Ojukwu was the cause of the misery

When Ibos left Nigeria they exchanged their Nigerian Pounds for Ojukwu's Biafra Pounds

Ojukwu used their money to buy arms

At the end of the war Ibos turned up with their worthless Biafran pounds destitute looking to change them for Nigerian pound

The Nigerian government as a gesture of goodwill decided to exchange Biafran Pounds for Twenty pounds.

Each individual was given Twenty pounds no matter how much Biafran pounds he has.
Many felt bitter but who is to blame

That is what happened . It had nothing to do with Banks accounts

Saying from two sides of the mouth.

Dear are we complaining!?!
If that's what happened what again are you asking me for!!?

All I can tell you is that Igbos lost a lot of their savings by a scammer named awolowo who wanted to decimate the Igbos, but against all odds they rose beyond afonja comprehension

omonnakoda:
The point is there was never a time that Ibos turned up at Banks in Nigeria with their documents and were denied their money

Did not happen

Even today how can that be done in practice?

You have an expert on Ibo names or an App? It is a ridiculous claim

Lol that we came this far doing just fine doesn't mean we don't know, when it was happening you knew even our investment in rivers was forcibly taken over, small time you will come and tell us how Igbos didn't show up with documents to claim their properties in rivers too.

For all I know awolowo made that a policy, documents couldn't have helped. He robbed and scammed us then mocked us with 20 pounds. Buh we good now at least I can feed like 10 of your brothers comfortably through out their lives

omonnakoda:
no articles are on that thread

and elsewhere

It was a gift

Just hear your self, a paltry some of 20 pounds was a gift for what exactly....

I see it as a mock gift, just to frustrate easterners bouncing back while seizing their savings.

omonnakoda:
Twenty pounds was a lot of money in those days especially for a country that had just fought a war.
Bear in Mind there was no oil money in those days. Nigeria was not yet a major producer and oil price was low
It came from Cocoa and groundnut money . The hard sweat of your brothers

The point is Nobody's savings were seized.

Think ?
No newspaper article? Not one

Lol your demi god stole money from well richer eastern region population that proud themselves in oil, palm oil, and other crash crops then you gave them paltry sum of 20 pounds, from where they made so much from the insult and now you're puzzled and questioning it like as if is magic. I get it.

Continue wailing in the mystery.

omonnakoda:
There are many articles contemporaneous to the time that say what the twenty pounds was for

Read and learn
https://www.nairaland.com/4147830/biafra-twenty-pound-lie-busted

Many articles with one stupid link to nairaland where igbophobic discussions held sway!?!

omonnakoda:
Produce a newspaper article that described what you say
Produce a single passbook whose owner was denied their money

Are you saying NOT A SINGLE PASSBOOK survives to this day

In other words there is no documentary evidence ANYWHERE that this happened?

That is unbelievable

Chai see disturbance of mind.

Quite a mystery how Igbos survived with 20 pounds that you claim was a free giveaway

omonnakoda:
But you cherish and hold on to the hatred that that story evokes but have no interest in its veracity?

That's your business. You're the one that need the veracity. Yet you can't say for a fact what the 20 pounds what's for!?!

Again I no hatred, infact am happy aw far Igbos has come and we have almost recovered and surely we will get there some day.

omonnakoda:
Kindness of heart as a goodwill gesture. What would have happened if Biafra succeeded

Those questions are going nowhere

PRODUCE A SINGLE PASSBOOK whose owner was denied their money from a bank

Study this thread and educate yourself

https://www.nairaland.com/4147830/biafra-twenty-pound-lie-busted

Goodwill gesture with 20 pounds lol man does that really make sense to you?

See as you dey boast with the thread, lol

Why is cone head associated with these people whether male or female

Onions or no onions we mooove.

Onion will soon start getting cargo shipped from china into Anambra

omonnakoda:
Have you seen any bank passbook whose owner was denied his money?
Did not happen

Why was the 20 pounds paid then?!!

Lol Enemies of Igbos getting more confused as the day goes by

omonnakoda:
That is exactly what we are asking you HOW were these funds stolen exactly?

Did the Government pass a law or get a court order or did they just send in a bullion van

Was this not reported in any newspaper in the world?

Very basic and simple questions

DO you have any clue to those TWO QUESTIONS


Are you telling us that


NOT ONE SINGLE IGBO MAN TODAY HAS A SURVIVING BANK BOOK

See my question!??!

If it didn't occur, why then was the 20 pounds paid or was that done to mock the fg.

And again did Nigeria pass a law to do that, where was it reported!?! Some dumbo under scam going on and I believe awolowo acted alone.

On your last question, of what use is it. Is it something to cherish or the hold on to. Igbos has moved on long ago.

You all are only marvelled of how igbos have come after surviving the war and loosing everything and you need answers so badly... Lol.

Threads like this will keep on coming up and I get it. Is like a mystery puzzle

JohnSin97:
You're the poster child for stupidity...am done.

Being done and hiding your ignorance is the one good achievement you've made in your miserable life I guess

omonnakoda:
Correct with facts

What I said was that as prolific as Achebe was he DID NOT write ANYWHERE that this happened. Is that not strange that Achebe did not write once sentence on such a momentous claim

Ojukwu Never talked about it

Zik never mentioned it?


How believable is that?

https://www.nairaland.com/4147830/biafra-twenty-pound-lie-busted

The link is someone's opinion and it's contrary to what you're saying lol.

But what the op of that link doesn't know, is that the figure there wasn't paid by fg, but was from the stolen funds from millions of biafrans that has their savings with the bank.

Yet he dare say they're feeling entitled. What a misfit.
Pa awolowo is a petty thief and an infamous yahoo man and anybody siding him is barbaric.

JohnSin97:
It's called inflation dummy......the $1 of today isn't worth what it was 30years ago.....but your dumbass probably failed basic economics in class thus your inability to gasp the simple concept...... igbos are alot of things but they aren't dumbasses, yours is one of a kind....sure you aren't an 0su?

Because that's the only word you where able to hear in school or is it because you heard it when last you went to market and couldn't buy your basic things lol.

Tell me what's inflating the pounds.. or stop embarrassing yourself with your ignorance of fake economics. You're the Next awaiting Abobaku right!?!
