I repeat


Facts are not same as delusional reasoning

Let me guess? You are another self acclaimed"host" begging for Unity from "parasites" who want nothing to do with you?

Another NIGERIAN who love Igbos more than Igbos love themselves?

owobokiri:
You are just cleverly trying to mask your puerile "devide and rule" schemings with colorful igbo nationalist rants.. All I asked for is the strategic thinking behind these incessant demonization of the Eastern minorities.. Your desperation in putting far too much energy to prove the uselessness of the minorities shrouds your whole thesis with suspicion. Take it from me; you are not genuine! You are doing a hatchet job but who cares? You will fail anyways..

No body said they are useless.
No one is really useless.
We are simply putting it out there that they are not essential to Economic Viability and sustainability of Biafra.

We are good to go with or without the Minorities. That's the theme of this thread.
No one is bellitling any one.

theTranslator:
This is very delusional sir


Igbos only import and that is very dangerous to any nation


Always put proof in your write ups


Not directly from your delusional reasoning

Lol!
Is this what you deduced from the OP of this post?

OriakuAmara:
I don't know why Ipobs can't allow these tribes to rest,
I love diplomacy and respect of people's right.
We will make good neighbors with them that is cemented with good fences,
They can survive without Igbos and
Igbos can survive without them.

Very shameful and insulting of great Igbo people and our capabilities by IPOB and MNK.
They owe us a serious apology for such insult

EdoDefence:
First you said faceless next you said sweating how can you see the sweat of a member of a faceless forum

Answer the question and don't be scared
Is it with ethnic group you want to take survive on the 500 million USD?

So what's the name of your ethnic group

EdoDefence:
Pointless question, it's evident already I don't hide.

Is it with ethnic group you want to take survive on the 500 million USD?

How hard can it be that a grown adult cannot be proud of his ethnicity even in a faceless forum.
See how you are sweating just for being asked to be proud of your ethnic group.

How do you expect me to take you serious?

EdoDefence:
Am just being a concerned neighbour sha

Your ethnicity sir?

owobokiri:
This thread started off discussing some socalled Biafra economic potentials...., then subtly pivoted into a feast of hatred against eastern minorities..., as usual. Folks are are so dramatically worried about how to remove eastern minorities from Biafra more than they do about achieving Biafra...

This uncanny fixation on turning igbo minority neighbors into igbo enemies should worry.. There is absolutely no strategic thinking in this and I'm now starting to suspect the real intentions of the original purveyors of this retrogressive mindset on this thread...

Until IPOB stop the stupid fixation on licking shits from minorities.
Until you stop propping up the ego of these minorities, creating the wrong impression that these groups are essential to economic Viability of Igboland.

We would never have BIAFRA.

The day you IPOBS free yourself from mental slavery of belittling the capability of Ndiigbo as an independent and self sustaining entity, would be the day Biafra would come.
Go figure.

But until then. We proud Igbo nationalists would not allow you IPOB people with no iota of self or group dignity denigrate our Worth, potential and capabilities as a people.

EdoDefence:
Is it with ethnic group you want to take survive on the 500 million USD?

Ok.
So we take it your ethnicity is inconsequential.
And until you come out proud to proclaim and accede allegiance to your ethnic group and not hide behind meaningless terms like MIDWESTERN REPUBLIC, I have no business with you.

Bye bye!

EdoDefence:
Is it with ethnic group you want to take survive on the 500 million USD?

Simple question. What's the name of your ethnic group

For example, I'm a proud Igbo man working for Alaigbo republic.

So Mr Man, what's your ethnic group?

Come on! Your ethnicity can't be that inconsequential that you can't even be proud of it in a faceless forum.

No! I don't want to believe that anyone would be that ashamed of their ethnicity.

So I ask one more time Buddy. What's the name of your ethnic group?

EdoDefence:
As a good neighbour and as a concern citizen of Midwestern Republic that's why I am advising your Biafra cos Midwestern Republic will take no refugees

So what's the name of your ethnic group?

EdoDefence:
Lol, but seriously think if it's with 544 million USD your Biafra can survive on

Lol! Why don't you worry more about how to make your Midwestern republic survive?
Or let my guess? You are one of those who love Biafrans and worry more about Biafran problems than your own problems?

What's the name of your ethnic group?

EdoDefence:
Lol, there is no link there so no need to lie, neither did you even attache the word "Copied"


First you started from Esan now it's spokesman, no need for beating round the bush. Be worried how your tiny Biafra will survive

You derailing my topic.
I have noticed you, you can now go and open a thread about how your Midwestern republic will be economically viable.
Thanks.

EdoDefence:
Lol see how he's campaigning for those who don't even need it, those clans you mentioned are fully with Midwestern Republic.
Do you know if am Esan? Baba leave us and mind your tiny Biafra
So wail on





Besides what's that? " I am not an Igbo guy"

The OP was lifted from a post made in a different thread.
I'm not the one who typed the OP.
I even provided the link to his post there.


Lol! So you are the spokesperson for all the ethnicities in former Midwest?

You are not comfortable sticking to your own ethnic group, nah attachee by force sure pass?

Omanambala:
Just open mouth and spill gibberish. Go through this thread and tell me any of the Igbo who gives a hoot about your "Niger Delta" crap. Truth is you just realized we don't give a second ffuvkk about you nor whatever you have....hear it again , WE DONT FFUCKING WANT YOU! Go settle your scores with NK because nobody in this thread is an IPOB. The people who posted on this thread are Pro-Igbo Republic not IPOB members.

Again , we don't need your NIGER DELTA !

However, we will take our Igbo brothers trapped in that your dirty waters with us...enu ani , etche , Obigbo and Egbema. Take Ika and Ukwuani and do whatever you please with the.

Bye felicia!!

The dude is in severe pains.

They think they are dealing with IPOB people who are interested in begging them for Unity here.

EdoDefence:
Mr Igboid you're eboe no need to disguise

As for the allocation Niger Delta republic and Midwestern Republic will solve that

Disguise?
Have you ever seen an Igbo man disguise?
We are naturally a very proud people. Our pride in our ability as a group usually choke the life out of non Igbos around us.

Of course I'm Igbo. A damn proud one at that.

What is Midwestern republic? What is Niger Delta republic?

Nwanne! Better be proud of your ethnic group and stop hiding behind meaningless terms.

Why not be campaigning for Bini republic?

Because I'm very convinced that Esans would still want their own independent country away from Binis and their Oba.

Don't even think of Enuani.

Plead:
Igbos are mentally barren.

What's the name of your ethnic group?
Is it that inconsequential you would rather hide behind meaningless terms like Niger Delta?

Plead:
It's my concern because you ungrateful lots keep attaching yourselves to we Niger deltans without our consent. This attaché by force will be rebuffed.

I blame Gowon for not finishing what he started,if he did miscreants like you wouldn't be disturbing public space today.

Nnaa there is no ethnic group called Niger Deltan.
What is the name of your ethnic group.
Let's start from there.

Owologbo:
keep fooling yourself.
Can you tell us who made Igbos our mouth piece?
With the can of arrogance you people have, you won't achieve Biafra.

And let me guess? Your two LGA landlocked Isoko will prevent us from getting Biafra?

Plead:
Biafra is landlocked
Biafra don't have profitable resources
Y'all fools don't farm. How do you expect to survive? Well, by foolishly thinking south South will go with y'all clowns.

Bla bla bla bla and more bla!

And so? How is that any of your concerns?

budaatum:
Really? I got a guy here telling us Palestinians are not oppressed and black Americans are not oppressed and I bet if we asked him he'd say Igbos are not oppressed neither and you have to move on.

Care to help him with his floundering argument because he seems to be needing it.

BIAFRA agitation isn't just about oppression or marginalization.
Its more about incompatibility.

Ndiigbo don't see ourselves, our world view our ideology, etc, compatible enough with certain groups in Nigeria as to exist in same country with them.

When a people don't see themselves compatible with another, the logical thing to do is for all involved to hold a discussion and dissolve tfe the union like Czechoslovakia did.
But if one group insist on forcing union on another like Serbs did to ethnic groups in former Yugoslavia, then a violent breakup remains the only solution.

Ndiigbo see the rest of Nigeria as a dead weight to our progress as a people.
Whether Nigerians accept this or not is none of our business, what matters is that it's our conviction and we expect those involved to respect our wishes to be left alone.

The aim of this thread is to convince my fellow Igbos who might habour doubt about our viability as an independent nation outside Nigeria, that they need not entertain such doubts as all available rational forecasts predict that we would be just fine .

Owologbo:
I can see how sensible you are.
I cannot speak for SS, but you an Easterner can.
I won't engage you again.

Speak for your two LGA Isoko ethnicity.
As far as there are groups in SS who still proudly identify as Igbos like communities in Aniocha and Oshimili LGAs in Delta and Oyiigbo and Egbema in Rivers.
You as an Isoko with just two LGAs as against 5LGAs that are proudly Igbo in SS,do not have more rights to speak for SS than me.

And by the way, SS or whatever is not even recognized by Nigerian constitution. Not that it matters though,as NIGERIA on it's own shouldn't be existing.
The point is that you should learn to say things like: Biafrans should stay off my 2 LGA Isoko ethnicity and land. And not senseless statements like : Biafra should stay off SS.

People like you go about on internet shouting on how Igbos should stay in SE and that SE is landlocked.
But you don't stay in your landlocked 2 LGA Isoko too. You would be attaching to meaningless terms like DELTAN, Niger Deltan, South-Southener, etc to spread your ignorance.

budaatum:
I should hope so, because it would be rather pointless to get rid of one oppressor only to then oppress others. It would be as if you'd stopped being like the oppressed Palestinians in Nigeria to become the oppressing Israelites in Biafra.

Personally, I just wish the Igbos could concentrate on making their region the envy of the entire Nigeria, but it is obvious that you can not be destroying Nigeria with one hand, and hope to be building Biafra with the other, which is a great pity indeed.

Osus are not oppressed.
Just that they find it hard to marry non Osus, because of the fetish belief by non Osus that Osus were dedicated to the gods, so marrying them is like taking from the gods and should come with some misfortunes to anyone who married them.

And like I told you, this culture is only practiced in 1/3 of Igboland in the past, and is already on it's dead throes even in areas of Igboland it was practiced in the past.
Biafra would put a nail on its coffin.

OfoIgbo:
Igboid, very wonderful points.

Let me also add that instead of constructing just a seaport at Obuaku, that a new city should be constructed (Obuaku city or any name that finally gets chosen)

It was the Enugu Coal funds that was used in constructing Port-Harcourt from the scratch.

A far more modern city (possibly the most modern city in Africa) can be constructed around the site of the proposed seaport.

Biafra's gas revenue will make this a painless project. Niggaz need a place to ball, Ighotago

You are in the spirit.
It is easier and cheaper to build a world class modern city on a virgin land, than to demolish structures in older cities to upgrade them to world class.
Starting a similar project like Eko Atlantic City in Obuaku area should feature high on republic of Igboland priorities.

budaatum:
What amuses me is the fact that once we get this Igbo land, we shall then build fences to keep Osu from Nwadiala.

Osu caste system

We are working on it.
In Igboland republic, we will put last nail on the coffin of that ugly part of our history.
And mind you,Osu caste was practiced in about 1/3 of Igboland.
The largest Igbo clan of Ngwa has no Osus. The Aros have no Osus.
The entire Ebonyi know nothing about Osus. The Ndoki and Asa clans have no Osu caste system.
So it's more of a regional than a centralized practice in Igboland.
Nevertheless, we would snuff it out in Alaigbo republic.

Izuchukwu18:
They only people I want in united states of Biafran is Southeast Igbos , southsouth Igbos,northern Igbos, akwaibom and cross river people . This type of biafra is balanced ,there will be no problem in it

Nnnaa. BIAFRA should be strictly SE and Igbos in SS who accept they are Igbos. At the moment,only Egbema,Obiigbo, Enu-ani and Isobo ( Indigenous Igbos of Obubra LGA of Cross River) fufill these criteria in SS.

Any non Igbo group that wants to join would have to send us a written proposal. Then we sit down and discuss terms and conditions with them.
USA we know today started with about just 13 states,other states saw how good it was and applied to join. Puerto Rico was the last to join or so. Success has many fathers.
Let's kick start it ourselves. And then give anyone else who wants to join criteria to meet to be part of us. We can even turn some of them down in the end if we don't think they have something to offer us or that they habour innate Igbophobia.
We are good to go on our own. Anyi Zulu ka eme! That's the Central theme of this thread. Ndiigbo anyi Kariri okwu! Anaghim agwa gi ka I Hari I gwa onye Ozo! Anyi akpughi mmili n'onu nwe n'ekwu. Obughi etom onu! Anyi na ekwu ihe mere eme life!

Ka Chineke mezie Okwu.

OriakuAmara:
Biafra will come faster if kanu can scrap any tribe that is not Igbo off the map
Am married to Ogbaru and I can tell you that Ogbaru lga has a lot of untapped oil and gas.
Even some of them are drilled to Ndokwa in delta state, Anambra state government recently discovered that, that's why he met timipre Silva last two weeks.
We will be 100% fine, even if we are landlocked, we can partner with Equatorial quinea or Cameroon(or ambazonia) to be importing from their seaport, then pack the imported goods into cargo airplanes and fly it into our cargo airports.
We will be fine.
I don't understand this unnecessary persuasion of minor tribes by Ipob members, let them be.
We will be diplomatic neighbours with them
Good fences make good neighbors!

Yes . Many Anambra crude oil have been drilled from Delta State for years now with remittances going to Delta State Government in form of derivation fund.

I agree fully with your last statement.
Good fences makes for good neighbors indeed!

https://www.google.com/amp/s/nairametrics.com/2020/01/11/nigeria-receives-17-5-billion-diaspora-remittances-in-2019/%3famp

The above is amount NIGERIANS in Diaspora remitted to Nigeria in 2019. A whopping 17.5billion dollars.
No group travels out of this country and have more diasporan distribution worldwide than Igbos,and no group have more knitted and tight monogamous family set up that thrives on elderly ones remitting funds to help parents back home to train younger ones and afford them luxuries they themselves missed while growing up than Igbos. Ndiigbo always always send money home to mama and Papa and siblings, our monogamous family settings makes this possible.

I would stick out my neck and say that atleast 30% of that diasporan remittance was made by Igbo diasporan population. That checks out at 5billion dollars remitted that could be easily remitted to Biafran economy. Calculate this in Naira and see for yourself.

Imagine how much more they would remitt to help Independent Igbo republic to kick off! If need be?


Ndiigbo! Republic of Igboland is and will always remain very very much Viable and more beneficial to us than NIGERIA.
Let no one tell you otherwise. With or without the Minorities,we are good to go.
The success or failure of BIAFRA is not tied to any Minority group. It is tied to Ndiigbo, our patriotism towards our motherland, our highly skilled diasporan population, our very resourceful artisans in Aba, our industrialists in Nnewi,our very fertile soils in Ebonyi and Enugu,our humongous Natural gas reserves in Anambra,Abia, and Imo.

Ndiigbo, we are good to go.

Owologbo:
I'm a Deltan, an Isoko.
If you as Urhobo, ijaw, kwale, Itsekiri, ibibio, the binis, e.t.c. that made up SS, you will have the same response.
You will achieve your Biafra quicker if you concentrate on your Igbo States.
Nobody is proud of nigeria but, it doesn't mean that you should hoodwink SS into your Biafra.
SS is big enough to be a country of its own.
I wish you you achieve Biafra, the country of your dream as you count out SS from Biafra.
peace.

Isoko is a landlocked tribe. You have no access to the sea. And it's not like you are in good terms with Ijaws.
You don't know anything about Efiks, Efiks and Ibibios are 100s of Km away from Isoko but they are next door neighbors to Igbos in Abia and Ebonyi, yet you feel you can hide behind the misnomer SS and speak for them?
Get real!
There are Igbos in your SS too. Many Proud Igbo communities in Aniocha, Oshimili, ONELGA and OYIGBO LGAs, are you in position to speak for them too? You feel as a landlocked Isoko person you have more rights to speak on behalf of Ethnic groups you have no boundaries with and no nothing about than Igbos who are not only part of this your amorphous SS, but also share boundaries with almost all the groups in it?

Get real. Try and restrict your vituperations within your two Isoko LGAs and stop pretending like you speak for other groups or persons in SS. You have only one vote bro.

Isoko is big enough to form a landlocked country of your own, why do you need to attach to other ethnicities in SS including my Ukwuani/Ndokwa cousins who you call KWALE?
Don't you see you are the hypocrite here?

You are an ISOKO, own it with your full chest. There is nothing like Deltan or Niger Deltan, those are artificial meaningless constructs with no soul whatsoever. If you want to be Igbophobic, be Igbophobic on behalf of yourself and your Isoko people. Don't go mad be roping other independent groups in while fraudulently hiding behind meaningless terms like DELTAN, Niger Deltan, South-Southener, etc.

mrvitalis:
We igbos agree we would suffer ...why do people who hate igbos so much no longer want igbos to suffer

If biafra wouldn't favour igbos Nigeria for done divide long time ago

Gbam.

It's only in Nigeria that those who assigned the title of Hosts to themselves cry and fight to prevent those they labelled PARASITES from leaving them.
While the so called PARASITES are fighting to leave the HOSTS.

You don't need anyone to tell you that there is a mislabeling somewhere.

Sylraph1:
This is a very nice analysis and an eye opener.
Indeed a republic of igboland aka biafra will thrive at the optimal level but the people have to come together first.
Both the politicians, elites and renowned sons and daughters of igboland need to be bold and work together.It shouldn't be individually championed as MNK is trying to do.
Igbos in diaspora especially the ones in high places should use their positions to broadcast and support it. Both igbo celebrities,sportmen,musicians, actors and others home and abroad are not left out.
All hands must be on deck for BIAFRA to actualize and not the other way round.

Nwanne, every revolution is usually started by one person through one group.
They generate enough critical mass that would now force everyone else to key in and give the process the final push needed to birth a new age.

MNK has taken upon himself to be that man who has selflessly offered his head to be used to break the proverbial coconut.
We should criticize him constructively when needed, but we should not antagonize him. If he made IPOB free for all and not a dictatorship, Nigerian agents would have used selfish Igbo undercover agents to infiltrate and internally destroy the organization.

I too criticise MNK one man show actions at times, but deep inside me, I know it's a necessity for the times we live in.

IGBOSON1 i see you peeping bro.
Say something.
