Frankdoz29:

And mentally challenged people are even better than IPOB members and sympathizers.

Yyeske:
Of course not, they are mentally challenged people

Yyeske:
I'm not angry with your post but would be so angry if you are not around here as the real game is about to start, let's destroy what is left of Igboland so that Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB can come and inherit what is left over.

Na naija man, its in the DNA of 99% of them.

RonKenoly:
Yeah I remember, but some videos surface showing IPOD looking for Muslim to leech; maybe propaganda but that didn't help their case.

I believe it is upto the masses to come together and demand for secession through revolution. But I don't see Nigerians having that mind, well as you said earlier na just to try see sai my children dey okay last last.

thatareaguy:
Which part is doing the right thing? lol.

RonKenoly:
Why can't we do it ourselves, instead of putting the burden in how great grand children.

They would see us as bunch of cowards lol.

RonKenoly:
But sometimes those little difference in level of reasoning or how we reason is also important toward development.

Or are you referring to ethnicity reasoning and not individual?

RonKenoly:
I am beginning to subscribe to this division idea but there is no any serious elites in the country clamouring for it.

Don't you think there is another way to foster unity?

Is it Afonja that made Ojukwu and Ironsi brutally suppress the NigerDelta republic of the Ijaw Isaac Adaka Boro in 1966?

And when Igbos also chose to follow the path of secession that Adaka Boro was imprisoned for by Igbos a year earlier, was it Yorubas that made Adaka Boro to support Nigeria over Igbos and Biafra?

After the war when the Igbos were getting their properties back in Yorubaland, inclusive of the rents collected on their behalf for such properties, was it Afonja that made the NigerDeltans prefer to hold on to Igbo properties?

Your problem is that misery follows you about.

I don't like speaking on sensitive threads like this but comments like yours tug at me.


Igbo people did not kill Balewa and co. Coup plotters killed Balewa. The coup plotters were led by some Igbo soldiers. Coup plotters don't come to their tribesmen to seek for permission to carry out a coup.

The coup and the killing of select people is condemnable but the generalization and condemning of and the eventual massacre of a whole tribe for what few soldiers did is atrocious and unjust. This is at the heart of the ethnic bitterness and hatred that have strangled the building of a united progressive nation.

It is false logic to say that a few = a whole.

Does Boko Haram = Hausa/Fulani?
Are Fulani Herdsmen = The entire Fulani?

If so should we go on reprisal attack on all Fulani to get justice?
The same evil logic wiped out Odi in Rivers State. Few soldiers killed by militants. Justice meant wiping out the entire Odi village, raping and torturing and even killing their women?

Some blame Ironsi, the man who led the offensive that aborted the coup, for not decisively dealing with the perpetrators of the coup. True, Ironsi should have been quicker and more decisive in handing out judgment.

So the Igbo nation deserved to be punished for the weaknesses of the commander in chief?

Another false logic.

Does Buhari's weaknesses in arresting Fulani herdsmen and bringing the killings in the Middle Belt to a halt justify a coup in which Buhari is killed and almost all Hausa/Fulani soldiers are wiped out and a pogrom is sanctioned against the entire Hausa/Fulani?

The injustice at the root of that war still festers today - see many comments on NL about 'Children of hate', terrorists and 'fear north' and even the perennial Yoruba vs Igbo fights here.

Until we realize where the rain started beating us and find creative ways to solve them and reconcile these anomalies nationhood will continue to elude us and charlatans like Nnamdi Kanu will continue milking the Biafra story for lucre. Until there is no country left.

We need a different kind of thinking and leadership to move this country forward.

MEGAWATCH:
My question is simple, when all this thing where happening, what was the role of the Yoruba people?

cyrilamx:
But Ndigbo in the North composed a song taunting the late Sarduana of Sokoto in the land where they were welcomed. You dont need to go on a plebiscite to show u condone the act, actions and inactions can show your support for a cause. Even the pseudo federalism we suffering from today was caused by Igbos. Ben Nnwabueze drafted that decree No. 13 of 1966 which Gen. Ironsi used in setting Nigeria on unitary path where each states now look to federal govt for revenue. Once the Northerners this false sense of federalism, they never want to hear about Restructuring anymore.

Oduduwa sure wrote better english than "was threw down from the sky".
