Culture / Re: If Nigeria Divide Today, Does Delta And Edo State Has A Place With Yoruba/igbo by Foncu: 7:41pm On May 16, 2020
pazienza:


I'm sorry, but I don't reply emails from people on nairaland. I don't seek to make contact with anyone here nor have them contact me.
I want to set up a website focusing on the names of lawmakers and their constituencies
from the First Republic, Second Republic and Third Republic. I have searched the archives without result. Being well versed in history, i thought you might be of assistance hence my email to you.

Igbanke share land boundary with Mbiri in Ika part of Delta.
So yes! They can easily be added to Delta.

In exchange, Delta(Anioma) would have to give up Ozanogogo to Edo state.
Good evening please i sent you an email yesterday. I am looking forward to your response.

I don't actually think Nzeogwu should have been handed over to be butchered. I'm just playing along with the blame game and telling you where the buck of the blame stops and it's on Nzeogwu table.
Nzeogwu wasn't killed because of Fajuiyi who was Nzeogwu and his boys mentors and Ironsi right hand man. He was the one who advised Ironsi to save the boys and continually pleaded on the boys case. This angered the Northern soldiers and that's part of the reasons they marked him for death and indeed killed him. To cover up for why Fajuiyi was killed, the Lagos-Ibadan propagandan media machine spinned the lies of Fajuyi being killed because he was pleading for Ironi life.
I don't know what you meant by saying that Orizu connived to hand power to Ironsi. Ironsi was a military man with troops at his command and wanted power handed over to him. What did you expect Orizu to do? Say No to Ironsi and pay with his life or what? The sort of spin you lots give these narratives is mind blowing. Even Ogundipe a military man couldn't stand up to Gowon, but Orizu a civilian was expected to say no to military man with troops at his command, because he is Igbo. And he is being vilified for not defying a military man with troops to command?




Okotie-Eboh and Nzeogwu were Midwesters. How about that?
So how do you think we feel when Nigerians massacred Igbo military officers and went after civilians and still expect us to be country men with them since we are talking about feelings now.



So there are now Igbos in Midwest. I thought they are all Bini descendants? grin You can't seem to keep your goalposts one place, can you?



So what happened when they reached home, why was the agreement reneged on?



This is bunkum. Agreement is the end result of a negotiation. It's at negotiation table that you give and take. You can't come overnight and want an agreement to be changed again or amended, that's the aim of negotiations.
Nigeria was not safe for Ojukwu. Ejoor who was in control of Midwest was pro Nigeria. Ojukwu would have been stupid to accept any such stupid invitations after the Nigeria massacred Igbos a second time after they promised Ojukwu their safety and asked them to return back. Nigeria proved they don't play by any civil rules.

You reach an agreement on Aburi, you keep it. If you didn't keep it, then you have reneged on it, it's as simple as that



The thing I agree with you. Ndiigbo will never be comfortable existing in same country with Yorubas and the North after Biafra. It will never work. Our resentment of Nigeria will never stop until we are no longer part of Nigeria.



Exactly. I don't think any of us need each other. We are totally different people. Separation and borders will make us good neighbors.

.

Binis were not the only ones who fought British. Ekumeku of the west Igbos was even more fierce. And there was The Anglo-Aro war of 1901. A full year out and out war.
You don't see Ndiigbo blaming anyone for that one too.



The only mistake I see leading to the war, was Zik shortsightedness in not realizing that Union between Ndiigbo and Yoruba /North is a destructive non feasible one. He had opportunity to fight for independence of Igboland as an independent country before Nigeria independence, but choose to fight for a United Nigeria.
That's the mistake present Igbo youths are hell bent on correcting. It was a life costing mistake.
Good morning sir.
I sent you an
email


on your igboid and parenza accounts. I look forward to receiving a response.
