This people won't stop this biafra nonsense

The arsonists will stop but Lower Niger/Biafra can be campaigned for as much as one Nigeria can.

Nigeria signed a treaty with the UN to allow self determination of indigenous people.

But how come the topic says that the men are to be sentenced when they have not been tried?

I reiterate that the charge against these men is conspiring to commit arson.

If I'm pro one Nigeria or pro Ecowas and in my campaign, I burn someone's property, the law will be against me.

This report is mischievous!
The suspects are being tried for allegedly conspiring to commit arson against a media station.
They are not being tried for being secessionists.

Seeking for a referendum is not a crime!
Lower Niger is not treason.

E just siddon dey tell unprovoked unwarranted lie, yes LA is nothing for you, why lie about it?

There is no Religion in the world respect women like Islam.

Women don't pray in the mosque like full blown individuals, they pray in a cubicle, in saudi Arabia women are the equivalent of slaves since they can do nothing without the express permission of a male relative.
Your religion allows the toture of small girls by allowing child marriage, you say it is stop them from fornicating but hypocritically you don't marry off your boys the same way.

So much for respect.

proper investigation would cost bode 3 months in prison...anyway, since he took the water and laid beside the corpse and nothing happend to him; Innocent he is!!!

Even if findings implicate the suspect, a good lawyer could use that crude judgement to sway the law to his side.

You killed the show even before it started.

I would believe that my fore fathers were genuinely tolerant to the missionaries for my own mental health.

I would believe this just as the white man made himself believe that he is superior.

It is a game of the mind, we should change our story to suit our consumption and escape from this self pity ('our story' we dont really know due to poor records)

Sorry, but this post betrays a certain kind of dishonesty.

Where is the pessimism in my post?
Is that there is hopeless poverty in Africa ?
Do you wish to deny that?

Or is that religious fraudsters of all shades ( which Nigeria seem to be the largest producer) see hopeless poverty, economic disenfranchisement, social dislocation coupled with ignorant superstition as an inexhaustible resource to prey on?

Which of these do you disagree with?
If you were honest, you would have made your own argument first before calling someone a self-hater.

Perhaps you don't know the meaning of self-hate.
A person who buries his face in the sand like an ostrich , and pretends to see nothing is the true self-hater.

The self hater is the man who enjoys talking about his problems without hope and effort of getting them solved.
I know you had a sense of fulfilment as you tagged your continent of 55 countries, a poverty laden society.

After finishing Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart about 6 months ago, I am now regurgitating the details of the classical novel and making conclusions.
The sub saharan African as painted by european writers of the pre colonial era was ignorant and intolerant but it doesn't add up, villages just like Okonkwo's village of Umuofia in the novel gave land freely to missionaries who demonised the religion of their fore fathers.

I was discussing with my sister for whose new intense spirituality I once created a thread saying that I was worried, the discussion bordered on religion, at a point she said that Benin city needed deliverance from the numerous powers she feels when passing the city centre - ring road.
I was disappointed and thought to my self, if the villagers had this much intolerance, they would not have given the missionaries land to spread Christianity that I and my sister practice.

No jazz, no magic.

The human mind is like clay.
It is very very malleable.
This goes to prove, and I have argued before, that there is no freewill.
The mind is always always fully or partially encumbered by the very nature of it's evolution.

We are hardly independent personalities viewing and judging reality from a distance. No.
Rather, are network of neural interactions, mirroring , expressing and trying to validate individual selves through our environments.

My point in all this is that the mind is porous and akways open to hacking and subtle manipulation, especially when you have the perfect combination of fear, superstition, ignorance and hopeless poverty.
Believe it or not, about 90%or more of people want to be controlled or led.
They want another person, a stronger mind, to define reality to them and break it down in small chewable bits, with plenty of sugar.
.
this is why Africa and other poverty laden societies provide the perfect inexhaustible resources for religious fraudsters and hustlers.

You were making sense until the bolded, you are just another pessimistic self hater who thinks he is inferior to the white man.

It was eiye people that I chopped more than 15 slaps from because I no gree make them obtain me in broad daylight at Osasogie.
God save me say they no take my belongings or do more harm.

My right ear was rang and was tender for
days.

Wow. Astute and well written letters. Devoid of hate and incitement. If leaders were this educated 44 years ago, then Nigeria deserves to be way ahead of where it is right now!

Educated and devoid of hate, that they let hausa fulanis kill Nigerians in their ethnic cleansing.
These men were slow thinkers, if they were smart the country won't be here. There won't even be a country, we have such different belief systems and values, the ethnic nations are cancelling out their progress.

The kind of yeye politics the north plays.

The north, suffering from both religious fanatism and tribalism.

Self consolation is allowed

Why are you filled with so much hate?

The Lower Niger is the future.

Those angling for Biafra are just wasting their time.

The Igbos need's to come together and always speak with one voice.

Biafra can never happen.

Lower Niger will

Nigerian politicians, no ideology just selfish interest
