gidgiddy: Two wrongs never make a right, however, so does selective condemnation. It was reported that Soldiers were killed in Aba during yesterday's Biafran day. The Nigerian Army says 5 Soldiers were killed, no names, rank, bodies or picture. They also claimed IPOB did it, and I'm wondering the investigation they did in a matter of hours to reach that determination. But let's assume 5 Soldiers were indeed killed by gunmen. It has attracted condemnation, and if it was unjustly done, I hope those who did it are brought to book. However, if you condemn the unlawful killing of Soldiers in Aba, can you condemn Soldiers for unjustly killing people in Aba? This is what the Nigerian Soldiers have done to innocent unarmed Biafran protesters in the same Aba:
January 2016. Biafran protesters staged a a rally in Aba, Soldiers arrived on the scene and opened fire, killing a passers-by called Chidozie Okafor who was returning ti his shop after going to have his lunch. Chidozie was the only boy in the family. Graphic pictures of Chidozies body and eyewitness account are below
February 2016[/b]Unarmed Biafran agitators gather on the School field of National High School, Aba. The agitators are singing praying and dancing. Next thing, the Nigerian Army invades the place, take firing positions, and open fire on unarmed peaceful agitators. 10 people were killed. It was all caught on video below
[b]April 2023 A group of people take to the streets of Aba protesting for the release of IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu. The protesters were unarmed and touched nobody. All was going peaceful until the protesters got to Osusu in Aba when a combined team of the Nigerian Army and Police swooped on the group and opened fire on them unprovoked. 5 people were killed on the spot. Video of the attack and eye witness testimony are in the link below
"My brother and I ran towards St Eugene Road because we were actually watching their demonstration from Faulks Road until the security men came and started shooting at them in Osusu.
"Later when I came out, I saw about three persons lying down motionless with blood all over although I was later told that two other persons also were killed at Osusu by Cemetery Road.
The atrocities of the Nigerian Army in Aba against unarmed Biafran protesters are many, from extrajudicial murder, to forced abduction to torture. When a group that is charged with protecting people becomes the group that is killing the people, abusing their powers and commiting extrajudicial crimes on them, they are not likely to attract much sympathy when the same happens to them.
The link u attached how is that a peaceful protest.
IPOB were burning tyres on the road and preventing free movement telling people to close shop and go home and u called that peaceful.
doncartel: Mr Soyinka should also be investigated for forgery of professorial certificate, stealing of Chinua Achebe’s writings, and aiding and abetting/conspiracy to commit electoral malpractice before he goes.
Easternmind: Lies they actually targeted civilians, families,with countless witnesses, please say what you know.. Bombing of markets,farms,buildings,rather than facing the biafran army..
Likewise the rebel targeted civilian facilities in other parts of the country e.g Casino cinema in Lagos.
And a point of correction, it was Anambrans themselves that created those old threads attacking Obi. Not only here but even on twitter and Facebook. Well, it’s so common for bitter people to always blame everyone but themselves. What has this thread got to do with Yorubas in the first place if not for hate and bitterness that flows in your vein. I really feel so sorry for you, I wonder how you sleep with failure and negative energies oozing all over you
That is their way.
Tomorrow they will tell u ikpeazu was the best governor and orji uzor kalu best senator.
NSNO: Like I said to Rutherford2019, Simon Ekpa has appointed governors for those regions. That doesn't seem like it's up for discussion, does it?
And please go out into the street and ask around, very few South-Southerners want Biafra. They are my people and that's where I grew up so I am not talking ignorantly.
Now please if you can, answer all the other questions.
Thanks
You get time replying those land grabbers.
Same ibo, aguiyi ironsi and ojukwu stop the successions declare by Issac boro.
Ibo believe in taking what does not belong to them
1x2x3: Try and educate yourself a bit. Do you know it was an Ijaw man that named it Biafra? Are you even aware it was another Ijaw man that wrote the National Anthem of Biafra?
Don't take my words for it, Google Chief Frank Opigo and learn properly. Back then there was nothing like South South.
The same ijaw man boro tried to create a separate entity from Nigeria but your ibo brothers forcefully killed it.
onez: Can you just leave the stolen mandate and leave us alone?. Your illegality and criminality Iin hijacking power is the root cause of this mess we are. You are truly a curse on this nation.
IPOB man, shut up.
Keep deceiving urself.
Ibo can't win any election in present day Nigeria.
Tell obi to revert to 2019 arrangement and start from being VP to Atiku.
Front0lane: As expected wetin you wan talk before. Woe betide the day any of you Igbos created a thread to malign Dapo Abiodun on this Nairaland with your fake monickers again.
Thank God say perosn go school, I nearly swallowed their propaganda thinking the man was a failure till I figured how can a man who built an airport, several housing estates n now longer n beta roads than Alex Otti be as terrible as they make him seem. Na WA o.
Abi you don see me create or made a single post about Dapo Abiodun all my life before this thread I created ?! Make he no be like say person collect money to hype the man.
U should know these people by now.
Otti is paying 18k as minimum wage. When other state are paying 70k e.g Edo state.
Otti refuse to pay wage awards to workers of his state.
And some nitwit are claiming he is the best governor.
