[size=14pt]Afikpo Expedition, 1902-1903[/size]

In Southern Nigeria the Afikpo country is open and undulating. During the expedition (1902-3) against these people, the force advanced some distance in square formation with the carriers in the centre. The bulk of the advanced guard and scouts were extended at one pace interval equally on each side of the main road, which was slightly raised above the surrounding plantations. A 75-millimetre gun was on the road, and at the front angles of the square were maxims. The carriers closed up and marched in a compact body in the centre with a front of thirty to forty yards. The carrier guards and rear guard protected the flanks and rear. Intact bodies of troops were held in readiness in the centre to reinforce any face requiring assistance. As the country was open and the enemy only possessed dane guns, and were not in the habit of charging with swords and spears, they were harmless if kept at a distance of two hundred yards from any face. Thousands of them hovered round the square and watched it from the tops of small hills as a deliberate advance was made against the chief stronghold of the country.

[size=14pt]The Ibeku-Olokoro Expedition 1902 — Fight outside the town of Onor[/size]

The force consisted of one 75-millimetre gun, 2 maxims, 12 Europeans, 226 rank and file, and 232 carriers. The 226 men were composed of nine sections taken from various garrisons in the Aro country. The advanced guard, commanded by Captain Grayson, R.A.,79 which was the fighting portion of this small force, consisted of scouts, 3 ½ sections infantry, one 75-millimetre gun, and 1 maxim, or about 90 men. The scouts were under Lieutenant Macdonnell, D.S.O., an excellent officer of the permanent forces of Canada. 80 Half a mile out of the friendly town of Onor the road ran along a narrow causeway, about 100 yards in length, and with a deep swamp on either side; there was a small stream at the enemy’s end of it which had to be waded. Fire was opened on the scouts, the enemy disputing the passage of the stream from the opposite bank. The scouts kept the enemy employed while the75-millimetre and maxim were got into position. A heavy fire was then poured in, and before the enemy had recovered, the guns ceased fire and a section of the advanced guard dashed across, and extended out in the open 11 yam fields beyond. The enemy retired precipitately, having only been holding the water with scouts.

The path now ran up the face of a hill covered with plantations, and became a hollow road, with sides 15 to 20 feet high near the brow. A strong stockade closed the hollow road, and the scouts reported trenches on each side of it, filled with the enemy, just over the crest of the hill. Captain Grayson engaged the attention of the enemy in front, while he sent Lieut. Macdonnell with the bulk of the advanced guard round the enemy’s left through the plantations; these afforded very fair cover, but were easy to move through. Lieut. Macdonnell went well round, but was confronted by new trenches. He was able to creep up close to these unseen, owing to their being placed too far back from the crest of the hill. He cleared them with the bayonet, and cut the enemy’s line of retreat, who, being now pressed in front, evacuated his trenches and fled into the bush.

PoliticsRe: Enugu, The Pride Of The East. by ezeagu(m): 9:57pm On Oct 01, 2015
Enugu is mentioned/part of the plot of a film just releasing based on the real lives of the London Kray Twins crime brothers. One of them was planning to invest in Enugu in real life and it made it to do film, although I think just a sentence in the scene or there about.

Review:
But despite the multiple flaws to Legend, there is an energy and almost pantomime fun to be had in the duality of the two twins. Hardy’s performance is often comedic, as Ron plans to set up Enugu (‘Utopia’) in Nigeria.

Like I said earlier you know zero to little about ipob or the group and everything you know is either from NL simple evidence everything you just wrote right now. No true ipob member includes itsekiri or even urhobo/isoko in biafra why? Because neither group was EVER part of Biafra be it past or present. Even the IPOB members in Delta state disinclude them from Biafra. How should I know? Because I actually have family members that are IPOB members in delta. The members that ever included both groups is LNC and that's where majority of NL biafra agitator get their information from based on majority of the maps posted on here.

While I'm at it, LNC is not a biafran group , just follow the same ideology as biafra but the leader is iteskiri and ijaw.

If you have little knowledge of something, you really shouldn't try to discuss on it.
Lastly the concept about biafra being a "European" word. And so what? So is your one Nigeria.. do you see any biafra telling you to change you "one Nigeria" is something you deem right.
Now that is confusing because I've definitely listened to a Biafra broadcast. Anyway. Why then call it 'Biafra' which has no meaning and not an indigenous name like Ala Igbo?

The fact you included iteskiri and urhobo/isoko shows you actually don't know nor listen to IPOB or even Massob ideology. The only group you actually included in their that is included in Biafra is Ibibio and that's because ipob has a significant number of members that are ibibio. A perfect example is my best friend who is not an ipob yet (he's on the process of getting ipob membership) but he is one of the biggest biafran agitator and sirpporter I know at least in my own neck of the wood. Me personally, I'm against non Igbo joining Biafra hence my point of Biafra focuses on just Igbo land alone.
I have definitely seen where Urhobo and basically everyone surrounding the Igbo people have been lumped together in this Biafra thing by IPOB coupled with the rejection and rain of curses from the supposed groups. It's embarrassing and annoying. The best ways people successfully secede is when they can succinctly describe the group that wants to secede, hence the Igbo people who speak Igbo want their own country for their nations. I've even heard IPOB people saying Igbo is not a nation and that everyone from Itsekiri to Ijaw migrated from Aguleri. Why even keep the name "Biafra" then if this is an Igbo thing. "Biafra" has no clear meaning and was used by Europeans to mark a particular part of Africa for trading and slaves.

Whoever is talking about igede and coo is a buf00n simple. Most of the people on NL taking about biafra have little to zero idea the content of Biafra just joining in the bad wagon to talk. The only idoma or igala involved in biafra are the ones found in Enugu and Anambra. And similar to what I said, no part of igboland is staying in one Nigeria. If they don't like Biafra, they can equally pack their bags and heard to middle belt where they came from...no wahalla and End of story.
But it's IPOB, the front runner of this 'Biafra' movement, who are claiming Igede, "Isobo" (Urhobo/Isoko), Igala "Igbo-Nta" (Ibibio) and Itsekiri because "their names start with I and they wear two piece wrapper". Is that not a joke?

Biafra is biafra. It's includes igboland be it in SS and SE. Biafra will not force any group or person to join and if you, ezeagu, don't ever to join, you can stay in one Nigeria..no problem but best believe no part of igboland is staying in that one Nigeria so you have to pack your bags and head to any part of one Nigeria and call it your home.
So Biafra is an Igbo thing? Why are there groups talking about Idoma, Igala, and Igede and others who have never had anything to do with Biafra?
