What some of us elders can see sitting down, you youths of today cannot see standing from the tallest Iroko tree.


The Biafran war was a massive conflict.

2 million Igbos lost their lives.

[s]There was mass starvation of Igbo people. Many also died of malnutrition and kwashiorkor.
[/s]
[s]If you think this did not happen on a large scale, go to every Igbo village and ask them where their civil war dead are buried, and they will show you. And I mean EVERY village.

[/s]
All you youths shouting 'Biafra Biafra' need to cool down and research what happened the last time.

It was very terrible for the Igbos. They suffered greatly.

Virtually the entire world stood against Biafra and supported Nigeria.

Biafra was blockaded, by sea, land, and air. Nothing could come in or go out, for years.

Igbos were forced to eat anything that moved including cockroaches.

Cannibalism grew.

You honestly do not want a repeat of what happened back then.

The sad thing is that this twitter, SUV, smartphone, instagram generation is far, far, far, far, far, far less able to deal with such hardships than the 60s generation, if their reoccur.

Nnamdi Kanu to me, is an agent of people who want to destroy Igbos again, as they have become the most prosperous ethnic group on the continent, and therefore, must be cut down.

He could be an international agent.

[s]He is in London stirring up trouble, and now the East is becoming a battle ground for federal troops.[/s]

In 3 years time, it could be ''worse than Syria'' just like Kanu promised.

Igbos, is THAT what you REALLY want for your region?

Igboland, the land of multi-million dollar village mansions, festivities, industries, factories, and fine, fast developing cities, turned to... SYRIA?

If not, get rid of Nnamdi Kanu, or that is exactly what you will get.
A dirty ass cannot speak for great Igbo nation. Please seek relevancy by telling fairy story of a sinking frigate (Nigeria) you hope will sail as a battleship (developed country).

thebosstrevor1:
Nigeria didn't force them to be in Nigeria, they begged to be in Nigeria.

1.The north and west wanted to go away from Nigeria but rhe eastern leader Nnamdi azikiwe begged to be part of Nigeria.

2. The igbo elites can't affird to leave Nigeria, igbos are everywhere in Nigeria doing businesses and working. If they breakup, these will make life difficult for those immigrants, that means they will need visas and work oermit to work, many if them will be sacked because the new country will want only their citizens and also igo established companies will have to pay more tax in the new country to stay.
Are you always this clueless? There were country and Nigeria\Biafra war. Nnamdi Azikiwe was never a final arbiter on whatever transpired during the struggle for Nigerian independence. If he was such a figure, there would not have been a thing called Nigeria.

There were two christian preacher and seer who spoke concerning two event that will unfold in Nigeria

One of the preacher/seer forsee and prophesy that somethings will happen that will make all Northerners to ask all the Igbo's to leave their land

Another preacher / prophet who based in abuja once forsee and prophesy that a new armed group will emerge from the ss /se. He said that this armed group will be created by politicians and are more deadly than boko haram. He said that even boko haram will be like a dress rehearsal and urge Nigerians to pray

Right now I am beginning to see that this prophecies will come to pass and is coming to pass.

Right now I am seeing that my Igbo's brothers are ready for war
My Igbo's brothers are giving the government the red flag if their right to rule is denied.

I know that my Igbo's brothers has been silent for too long and are ready to act.

I have also prayed to God that before Nigeria will be a nation of Cannibals, He should make me a way of escape

I even opened a topic where I publicly declared that I am not a nigeria person and I do not want to marry a Nigerian to spoil my offspring. I do not want Nigeria to continue from my offspring

Some criticize me and say that I am bastard to my tribe

A Nairaland user SoundOsound called me a psycho even though he do not understand the meaning of the word psychopath

Some says that I have problem because I am not like the typical nigeria person

Yes I do have a problem and the only problem I have is Nigeria itself.

I have problem with your crazy Nigeria mentality
I have problem with your crazy Nigeria tibalism

Nigerians failed to understand that their language is only created by humans

Even SMBH said I need emancipation which is good, but the only emacipation I need is to be free from Nigeria

I see that tribalism has rotten the brain of many Nigerians

Tribalism is a problem to this land and Nigerians are problems to them self

Northerners kill northerners and when they do, they cry out to the government for help

Northerners are also free to travel out of their land to kill other people in their own land which is okay to them

But when other region touch and kill their people they get upset and wants to retaliate with food supply

I have seen you northerners destroy Igbo's business in the name of your sharia holliness shit

Your Jihadist fight and kill millions of your fellow Nigerians in the name of a god.

What crazy god that will declare humans to fight and kill for him

Did your holy book not tell you that God is righteous and just? that he will punish and judge everyone good and bad?

If your people are attack and be killed in other region, it might even be your own boko haram that's perpetuated the hidden attack.

It is some politicians are that behind all this great evil in this country

In the west any attack will have a thorough investigation and justice will be well served.

Tribalism
Tribalism
Curse be unto you

Tribalism, because of you some have delacre them self as IPOB

Tribalism, because of you some has now declaring them self as ooudua or oduduwas shit

They see them self as the majority

Even the majority has become nuisance

Even the minority understand that no one can succeed alone

The land of the minority embrace peace that the crazy majority can't

The majority has done more harm to the country and has become the source of division and chaos

If I cannot beat them, I cannot join them

I have to leave them and escape from their land Nigeria

People who know me in persons says I always speak the truth and I will offend anyone for saying the truth

Damn. Nigeria is a crazy place
What the hell is the bolded in the sentence? Is the "West" includes Italy, Holland and France which combined population cannot match northern region of Nigeria yet are countries with different languages? Call it tribalism or whatever that makes your cup of tea, unity can only be obtained what is called Nigeria through disintegration and formation of countries such as Republic of Igboland and Republic of Oduduwa.

The last thing in Fulani's mind is to engage Igbo people in any fight. At the beginning of 19th century, the Caliphate tried south-east bound and was defeated by the Igbo via Akegbe. Caliphate halted at today's Taraba and Benue States while it had a field day in the northern parts of today's Oyo and Osun States.

Politics › Re: VP Not Relegated, Ex-IGP Not With Osinbajo In Imo When Sacked — Aide Akande by Idiko1: 11:19am On Apr 08, 2021
murecool:
The former Inspector General of Police, IGP Mohammed Adamu, was not on official duty with Vice President Yemi Osinbajo when sacked, the Presidency has said.

A controversy had been created on the social media, the opposition querying why President Muhammadu Buhari would sack Adamu when on the entourage of Osinbajo during his state visit to Owerri if not that the VP had been isolated from government decisions.

But reacting on the matter, the Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the Vice President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Laolu Akande, refuted this claim, saying it was unfounded, but the handiwork of mischief makers whose trade in stock was to spread falsehood.

He said those commenting didn’t understand the workings of government, contending that the uproar generated by the opposition after the sack of the former IGP Adamu over claims he was on the entourage of Vice President Osinbajo as of that time was needless.

Akande, who didn’t deny the presence of Adamu in Owerri, the Imo State capital on Tuesday, the same day Osinbajo visited, stressed that, “the former IGP was leaving town when Osinbajo arrived.”

Vice President Osinbajo was on a state visit to Owerri, on Tuesday, to assess the extent of damage done by the gunmen who attacked the state’s Correctional Centre and the Police Command, but his spokesman said, the former IGP was not on the entourage of his principal during the state visit.

Akande said, “The sacked IGP came on his own to the state, while Osinbajo was in Imo on a previous invitation by the governor to commission some projects.”

On those who came to Imo State with Vice President Osinbajo, his spokesman, Akande, informed that, “He was accompanied on the visit by the Minister of State for Budget and National Planning, Clem Agba; Minister of State for Steel and Mines Development, Uchechukwu Ogah; and the Special Adviser to the President on Political Affairs, Senator Babafemi Ojudu.”

According to Akande, “After commissioning the project, the Vice President then visited the Correctional facility, and the state Police Command attacked on Monday. During the visit to the burnt facilities, the Interior Minister joined the VP delegation. The former IGP was leaving town when Osinbajo arrived. They were on absolutely different missions.

“The Vice President already had a scheduled official working visit to Imo State to commission some projects at the instance of the state government, and he only used the opportunity to visit scenes of the attacks that happened recently in Owerri, as a concerned and empathic leader.

“It is interesting to also note that the VP and the former police boss never met in Owerri, as the former IGP was already on his way back to Abuja when the VP’s aircraft was about to touch down and every other flight was put on hold, including that of the former IGP, for the presidential jet to be cleared first. The former IGP was in Imo state, but he didn’t go there with the VP.”

For those who said the VP had been isolated from the happenings in government, Akande said, “it is good to note that, the VP is still overseeing the 2.3 trillion naira Nigeria Economic Sustainability Plan (NESP), as chairman of the Economic Sustainability Committee (ESC), which was charged with the task of pulling Nigeria out of the recession occasioned by the dreaded COVID-19 pandemic; an assignment that had already produced tangible and measurable result by bringing the country out of recession even faster than stronger economies affected by the same pandemic.

“Recall also that the VP was the same person who summoned the immediate past IGP before President Buhari over #EndSARS and didn’t stop there but also ensured that at least 30 states in Nigeria set up judicial panels of inquiry to investigate allegations of police brutality and compensate victims accordingly.
“A Vice President who chairs the Nation’s Economic Council (NEC) and has been playing an active role in the social investment programmes of the Buhari administration, which has been confirmed to be the most ambitious social investment programmes in Africa, however, cannot be said to be relegated, sleepy or sidelined.”

Military Launches Air Strikes On Benue To Kill Unknown Gunmen, Residents Panic

Fighter aircraft of the Nigerian Army and the Nigerian Air Force have begun air strikes on Bonta community in Shangev Tiev, Konshisha Local Government Area of Benue State, to destroy the camps of unknown gunmen, believed to be militants from the South-East.

SaharaReporters learnt that the military jets after leaving Essien Udim Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State on Tuesday where they had been engaging operatives of the Eastern Security Network, were redirected to Benue State to continue air interdictions.

SaharaReporters gathered from eyewitnesses that the aircraft flew at low level as they released gunfire, forcing residents to run in different directions as the deafening bombardments continued on Tuesday.

“The aircraft flew as low as 5 to 10 metres above the roof level with a wicked soldier who was shooting randomly and emptying a lot of magazines in motion,” a witness stated.

“It all started this morning, when Nigerian military attacked the people of Bonta in Shangev Tiev, Konshisha LGA using aircraft. This unexpected attack made everyone run out of the villages and look for a secure place to lay low,” another resident said.

“There are actually reports of deaths from the bullets, the shock from the unexpected attack and the loud sound and vibration from the aircraft. There have truly been communal clashes between the people of Shangev Tiev and the Igede community in Okpute.

“Some military men were caught in the clash when they were attacked by some Shangev Tiev youths on their way to their place of assignment. Now, the military have come to avenge the attack on their members,” another source revealed.

The Nigerian military confirmed the aerial strikes in Benue, saying they were from troops of Operation Whirl Stroke who came to engage attackers who had ambushed some soldiers days earlier.

“Some soldiers deployed to maintain peace between two warring communities of Konshisha and Oju LGAs respectively were ambushed. The soldiers were said to be on routine patrol in parts of Konshisha and Oju LGAs at about 5pm when the armed attackers seized them and went away with about eight soldiers after they opened fire on the troops.

“The military then went to reinforce and are back to the community,” a military source stated.

Only on Tuesday, the military aircraft had also caused an uproar in Essien Udim, Akwa Ibom, when the gunmen were targeted in aerial strikes for earlier killing a Chief Superintendent of Police, Benedict Okoh Ajide and other police officers.

The gunmen also killed a yet-to-be-ascertained number of military officers while many others were injured.

The policemen and soldiers were said to be in the community for peacekeeping efforts.

Previous unknown gunmen have been arrested and they all said they were members of IPOB, infact the recent attack of prison facilities in Imo state was carried out by IPOB terrorists, even Nnamdi kanu came out to support them, the police and the governor of the state pointed fingers at the terrorists group.

To stay relevant he had to support them.

The future of IPOB is bleak, since Nnamdi kanu does not have control over their members attacking police and military men and installations, there is a very big chance that these IPOB terrorists will split up into hardliners and moderates, what i meant is that it will split up into those that want further violence and those that want no violence, i sincerely believe that Nnamdi Kanu will go with those that do not want further violence because of his location, he will like to be a freeman.

The camp of those that want violence will end up destroying what ever is left of IPOB, they will terrorise the south east with violence relating to bank robbery, killing of innocent citizens, robbing of traders to the extent that the self Sabotage will be massive, other splinter groups will also come out from the moderate group, they will destroy Nnamdi kanu already destroyed reputation, expose the fraud he is and make him irrelevant.

As the world marked Easter, gunmen invaded the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCS) facility and police command headquarters in Owerri, Imo state capital, on Monday. 1,844 inmates were said to have escaped during the attack, and the police pointed an accusing finger at the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

Killings triple in the south-east after IPOB launched ESN — is this an insurgency?

As the world marked Easter, gunmen invaded the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCS) facility and police command headquarters in Owerri, Imo state capital, on Monday. 1,844 inmates were said to have escaped during the attack, and the police pointed an accusing finger at the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).


Few hours after the attack, Nnamdi Kanu, IPOB leader, in a tweet, said nobody deserves to be jailed in Nigeria. However, his position contradicts the Nigerian constitution which recommends jail term for several offences.

“If Miyetti Allah terror herdsmen & other murderous #Fulani groups, including Boko Haram insurgents, can be arrested, freed and rehabilitated by this neo-colonial Fulanised @NGRPresident, then no single soul deserves to be in any prison in Nigeria. If you know you know! #UGM,” he tweeted.

Recently, several attacks have been launched in the south-east region leading to loss of lives and property. No one seems to be safe as high profile citizens, security operatives and other Nigerians in the region have been victims of these attacks.

TheCable reviewed media reports and data from the Council on Foreign Relations and found a rise in violent attacks after IPOB launched its regional security outfit codenamed Eastern Security Network (ESN).

This has triggered conversations on whether the security outfit has degenerated into a militia leading an insurgency similar to Boko Haram in the northern region.

IPOB’S ESN WAS SET UP TO ‘HALT CRIMINAL ACTIVITY, TERRORIST ATTACKS’

On December 14, IPOB announced the launch of ESN for the south-east and south-south regions — a replication of Amotekun in the south-west zone.

Emma Powerful, IPOB spokesman, said the objective of the security network is to protect the south-east and south-south from “criminal activity”.

“The sole aim and objective of this newly formed security outfit known as Eastern Security Network is to halt every criminal activity and terrorist attack on Biafraland,” he said.

While the security outfit was reportedly set up to protect lives in the south-east, the region has recorded more criminal activities since the unveiling of the ESN.

THREE MONTHS BEFORE AND AFTER ESN LAUNCH: WHAT DO DATA SAY?

TheCable tracked attacks and deaths in the south-east before and after the launch of ESN. Data on the attacks in the five south-east states — Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo — were collated for the months of September, October and November, 2020.

Based on reviewed media reports and data from the Council on Foreign Relations, TheCable understands that a total of 34 attacks and 50 deaths were recorded in the three months preceding the launch of ESN.

In December, when the security outfit was launched, there were 13 attacks and 17 deaths recorded in the five states.

Meanwhile, in January, February and March, the first three months of 2021 and the first set of months after ESN was launched, the number of violent attacks surged and death figures spiked.

The south-east region recorded 54 attacks, representing a 59 percent leap, and 222 deaths, which is a 344 percent rise in death rate.

This figures excludes violent incidents across the five states in the month of April such as the attack on the police command headquarters and correctional facility in Imo.

UPSURGE IN ATTACKS AGAINST SECURITY OPERATIVES

A major development since the launch of IPOB’s security outfit is the spike in attacks against police officers.

On March 31, three police officers were killed when gunmen attacked Chukwuma Soludo, former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), in Anambra.

About two weeks ago, three policemen and four naval officers were said to have been killed during separate attacks by gunmen.

In February, suspected hoodlums attacked Umuoba police station in Isiala Ngwa north local government area of Abia state, setting it ablaze and burning down vehicles in the premises.

Frank Mba, force public relations officer, said two officers — Vincent Gonze, an assistant superintendent of police, and Emmanuel Okoronkwo, a sergeant — died as a result of the attack.

On Tuesday, another police station in Imo state was set ablaze by gunmen — this was the second attack on a police facility in two days.

TheCable understands that police officers took to their heels when the station was invaded by the gunmen who also freed detained persons at the police facility.

The attack on the police station came hours after Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo visited the state for an assessment of the damage done during a previous attack.

IPOB: VIOLENCE NOT PART OF OUR CULTURE

Amid allegations levelled against IPOB over the criminal attacks in the south-east, IPOB spokesman said it is not in the group’s “mandate” to perpetrate such crimes.

In a statement, Powerful said the information linking the group or its security outfit to attacks in the region is fallacious.

The group denied the attack against security operatives, saying IPOB, which has been outlawed as a terrorist organisation, was “formed on the principle of peace and we are still in it”.

“IPOB and ESN were not involved in the attack in Owerri Imo State, and the recent attack on Onitsha Owerri road at Ukwuorji junction. It is not our mandate to attack security personnel or prison facilities,” he said.

“Unknown gunmen is a different people which we don’t know them and they not IPOB or ESN security outfit.”
Cheap propaganda and a reverse psychological warfare cannot buy Nigeria a time of reprieve. Nigerian paramilitary units have killed Igbo youths one too many. Nigerian government has unleashed terror on Igboland though Fulani herdsmen so the people of Igbo and good friends will turn against ESN. However there efforts seemed to fall on bare face. It was alleged governor of Eboneyi State , Umahi was seen wiping and causing the Fulani herdsmen. It was alleged Umahi have regretted ever holding brief for Caliphates and jihadists from the northern region of Nigeria. I guess Nigeria has not seen anything yet.

An imposter pretending to an Ijaw man.
The person that mention anioma,anioma is not a tribe,I am Ika and I don't beleive in that anioma tag used by oshimili(asaba) people to play politics in delta state.
As for Ika people ,we will join a Niger delta republic consisting of the six south south states.
You and so-called Ika people will take the position vacated by the Itsekiri.

THIS IS TOO FUNNY, FIRSTLY JIM OVIA IS AN AGBOR MAN WITH ROOTS IN EDO STATE (LIKE THE MAJORITY OF TRUE AGBOR FAMILIES). NOTE THAT THERE IS THE RIVER OVIA IN EDO STATE AND OVIA LGA.

IKA PEOPLE AND IBOS ARE POLES APART, WE HAVE LITTLE CULTURALLY IN COMMON; THE FACT THAT WE ARE A HYBRID CULTURE OF MAJORITY EDO, BINI, YORUBA, IDALA AND SOME IBO SETTLERS DOESN'T GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO PLAY YOUR EXPANSIONIST GAMES. SOME HAVE IBO FIRST NAMES, BUT LOOK AT THEIR SURNAMES. WHAT DOES IRABOR MEAN IN IBO? OKOWA? GBENOBA? SO WHAT IF OGBEMUDIA'S MOTHER WAS IGBANKE? IGBANKE ARE NOT IBO.

OKORO GO AND REST.
You have every right to say you are not Igbo but say majority of people of Agbor who are Igbo are settlers. Any none Igbo in Agbor was a runaway. The people of IGBANKE or Igboakiri have said they are Igbo. Ogbemudia once ran passed his father's compound to take refugee in Onitcha.

MrMaestro:
I have to disagree, on some level. If it becomes a tariff war the rest of the world will without a doubt lose. Tariffs can't trump access to natural resources. We have the ultimate leverage. It may be difficult for smaller countries though. But I will say utilizing that leverage is playing a dangerous game if you aren't prepared to go to war. Because with the way these white people operate, political destabilization will be the carrot, and nukes will be the stick. This is why Africa needs nuclear weapons asap. Once they get that, it'll be the ultimate checkmate and they would have more leeway of controlling the world's operation by controlling access to it's natural resources. And it must be done. I agree with you on the intra African trade. Africa's development and industrialization is incumbent upon their ability to build factories and add value to their own natural resources for various products to sell to the rest of the world. It's how every other major country got to where they are now. It's inevitable, the world would need to get used to having little to no access to Africa's natural resources. Africa needs to build factories for its own youth. With the rate of population increase on the continent, more jobs need to be created.

I'm glad Ghana realizes this. Before you know it most of their youths will have factory jobs, crime would reduce, GDP would increase, and the country would capitalize on it's upward trajectory and invest in greater projects, research and development, etc.
The bolded has flowering questions all over it. The most important word in the bolded is in read. You simply cannot talk tough on the patent of another country. Africans are yet to start thinking.

The world has only one race and it is human. The idea world has more than one race is a figment of silly imagination.

Nigerian government and its paramilitary wing were warned by the manner they have treated Ndigbo by being trigger happy. It will be downward slippery path for any society where the oppressed and very angry people are allowed to get organized.
