She should not apologize I have followed her blog already

Like the yorubas who refused to share assets with the Midwesterners and deported them immediately after they voted to leave?

Such bitterness. Why are you guys always jittery and bitter when people try to assert their independence?



"AFTER THE REFERENDUM
 
In Ibadan, less than 48 hours afterwards, the Premier, SL Akintola ordered civil servants of Midwestern origin to leave, with less than 24 hours notice.   As federal referendum officers were returning to their places of work in Lagos on July 22nd, long columns of vehicles carrying over 600 Midwestern families returning from Ibadan, jammed the roads from Owo, and headed for Benin City.  As one witness put it, it was like the �great trek.�
 
For many months, Benin City became a large refugee camp with Western region returnees squatting all over the place in open fields, verandahs etc.   There were very few quarters and the sleepy old provincial capital with dusty untarred roads had long been denied the kind of infrastructure that could support such a sudden population influx.  Drivers of western region official vehicles disposed of their vehicles in ways that depended on their place of origin.  If they were Yoruba, they tried to make it to Ifon just beyond the border.  If they were Midwesterners, they hid their vehicles within Midwestern territory.  As things turned out, to this day, the Western region has never shared its joint assets with the Midwest, a sub-region which accounted for one third of its area and one quarter of its population.  All these years the Midwest (later Bendel State) has had to remain contented with whatever fixed assets were physically on the ground as of August 9, 1963 and could not be moved out.  The Western region and its successor States took what was left"

That’s what will happen once Biafra want out lol

LegendHer0:
Lol. Do you see the link you posted. Even the Seriki Hausasawa had to plead when Yorubas dealt with them in Ife.

He wants to derail thread when his leaders have gone to dobale in sultan of sokotos palace

I heard their governor even gave the Fulani 8m compensation looooool the fear of Fulani is the beginning of wisdom for the Igbo man

gidgiddy:
Rather than rally his people to chase Gowon and his Northern Cohorts out of Lagos and Yoruba land then declare the Western Region Oduduwa Republic, Awolowo ran to be 2ic to Gowon who was young enough to be his son. While Ojukwu was fighting to liberate his people from Northern domination, Awolowo gladly led his people into slavery to the North. The Western Region was balkanised, their resources stolen and the fiscal federation that gave Awolowo money to build cocoa house and give free education was removed in front of him.

While others were fighting for their freedom, Gowon was hiding under Gowon's skirt.

All because of the 3m Igbo souls your pained like this Pele

MetaPhysical:
Bro, this is my first time seeing you in politics section.

What is the true story of Igala and Igboland, were they originally the owners of Northern Igbo as many of them claim? Were the indigeneous, settlers, colonizers or migrants in Igboland?

Oh yes the Benin enslaved the Anioma and onitsha igbos and the igala enslaved the northern Ibos while the southern igbos were Ijaw vassals

macof:
They still have Igala minorities in Anambra

You wouldn't hear much about them as igbos have made efforts to silence them

Yes I heard there are Igalas

World heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua has been ranked the second-richest sportsperson in the United Kingdom.

In the ranking done by The Sunday Times, Gareth Bale was rated the richest young sports star.


However, Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton was ranked the richest sportsperson in the United Kingdom with a net worth of £224 million.

Apart from Joshua, others on the young sports stars Rich List are footballers who are aged 30 or below. Among them are Bale, Paul Pogba, Kevin de Bruyne, David de Gea, Raheem Sterling, and N’Golo Kante.

Joshua reportedly earned an estimated £78 million from his two fights with Andy Ruiz Jr last year, taking his net worth to £107 million.

Joshua reclaimed his titles from Andy Ruiz Jr, a Mexican boxer, six months after the Nigerian-born-boxer lost the titles.

The British boxer was born to a Nigerian-Irish father, Robert Joshua, and a Nigerian mother, Yeta Odusanya.

Joshua’s father (Robert) is the grandson of one of Sagamu’s greatest men and late patriarch Omo-Oba Daniel Adebambo Joshua, who was born in 1882.

Bale had in 2016 signed a contract extension with Real Madrid until 2022 that will make him earn £115m over the next six years in salaries and bonuses. He is estimated to have a net worth of £114 million.


Bale joined Real for a then-world record fee of just over €100m from Tottenham Hotspur in 2013. But the figure was eclipsed by Paul Pogba’s €105m move to Manchester United in August.

Top 10 richest young sports stars aged 30 or under (2020 wealth figures in pounds)

1. Gareth Bale (football) 114 million

2. Anthony Joshua (boxing) 107 million

3. Paul Pogba (football) 50 million

4. Kevin de Bruyne (football) 34 million

I'm looking for the article where University of Ife out of bad belle refused to hand over some ancient Benin maps to Uniben after the Midwest got freedom. The maps that should have been kept at Benin were kept at Ife by force all in the name of Western region. Just imagine

I will soon post it

Don’t forget to post where Uni of Enugu was moved from uni of Calabar

oyatz:
People like you are making the Biafran agitations very complicated because you only view things from your own prisms and like to come online to espouse these your views not only as the truth but as the ONLY truth.

Anybody that share contrary views from your views are labeled 'Afonja' because you have been programmed to see the Yoruba people as your problem.


The first question you need to ask yourselves is 'What is Biafra?'

a) The Old Eastern Region which didn't include Delta and Edo States.

b) The five States of the S/East.

c) All territories inhabited by Igbos whereever they found

d) The present SE/SS.

Unity beggers

BeerParlour:
All they do is think and wish evil to the Easterners for just no reason.
Afonjas should be thinking of uniting with their brothers from Benin Republic and Togo to form one powerful or homogeneous country in Africa. They can be like Canada that speak English and French or they work on their Yoruba language.

If I was Afonja, that's what I would be thinking.
Yoruba nation is divided into 4 countries... Togo, Benin Republic, Nigeria and Ghana yet they leave their nation to poke others.
They should be thinking of reunification with their people.

Everyone is a looser in Nigeria.

Big joke

Yorubas fought tooth and nail to stop them from leaving even tried to hunt down the activists.

"My father was the personal driver of Chief Omo-Osagie through out his political career and what both himself and B2 went through before, during, and after the creation of Mid-West is unimaginable and sometimes better than some of 007 epic films. My father once told me that the journeys to and from the Western House of Assembly in Ibadan was the type of journeys one makes to and from the battle field. Firstly, they never exceeded four people and they travelled by Bedford Lorry instead of a car to which his status demanded. The reason for this was security as his life was threatened openly by those enraged by his demands for Mid-West State. He said on approaching Ore, they would disembark and B2 would come out of the comfortable second row and climb into the back of the Bedford lorry and be covered with trampoline and that is where he would remain through the numerous roadblocks put out to hunt him down and, that is how he would remain until they arrive Ibadan. Sometimes, for the need to confuse his detractors, he would be hidden in lorries carrying plantain to Ibadan and guess where he would be sitting - buried among the plantain and that is how he remains until the outskirts of Ibadan and be transferred into the Bedford lorry again. On numerous occasions they escaped death with the skin of his teeth. My father indicated that when they are travelling, it usually was like preparing for a funeral at B2's house and those of his entourage and the worst is expected and, when they return unharmed, it was jubilation.� (Source: OJ Ebohon.
