I dare say Igbos may eventually win my support and the majority of Yorubas if they can keep this new agitation free of hatred, incitement and of course seek allies. They should learn from the mistakes of Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB and see others rise to stand with them. Most of us don't hate igbos, neither do we wish to see any group marginalized nor subjugated. The time for hate campaign is gone and this time around,it should be about the real issues that affect us and the path we wish to follow be it restructuring or separation.

Before I start giving reasons for my epiphany, I would like to state for the records that I don’t expect my plea to change anything, or make our people love each other, I just felt it Is something I ought to do whether or not it makes a difference. These past few weeks has been a roller-coaster of feelings, triumph by some over their perceived enemies, anger by some at their defeat,heartbreak and indifference to some.for me it was anticlimactic. I’ve never truly hated the igbos, at a point in my life, I admired them. I sought them out to befriend them. The reason was mainly due to my father’s words, one of the most kind hearted men I know in this world. He always told me how igbos persevered during the Civil War, how they stood and defended their land and how they took their subsequent defeat with their heads held high even to the admiration of the Victor’s.after the Civil War they left their arms behind, and went back to being full patriots once more to help nigeria grow as if the war didn’t happen and the truth is they did loose so much. They picked themselves up and excelled and in a short time became the successful igbo tribe the whole world knows today. However,fifty years after the Civil War,it was like all of a sudden a buried darkness emerged and there seemed to be a growing need for retribution for the loss and pains of the Civil War brewing among the igbo people. I first noticed it on nairaland, some openly calling for the extermination of the Yoruba race for our alleged complicity in the Civil War, which I as a person dismissed as nonsense because from my days as a toddler till that point being around igbo people, I had never once heard them talk out in bitterness about other people because of the Civil War. Time flew and on a fateful day, I walked into a department store in my hometown in ibadan. The results of the president elections were being announced, and from the results announced to that point it was a close call. Then an aged igbo man walked in, and he spoke the following words aloud ‘Yoruba…very bad people, God pass them, they don’t with Jonathan to win, and may God punish them. Wicked people ‘ I was shocked and in that moment a lot of thoughts rushed through my mind,ranging from the unrealistic to the ridiculous and then the outrageous. The statement hit me like a giant sledge hammer and I was disoriented, at a point my mind told me I was lost and had wandered to a remote eastern village, why? Because I didn’t imagine someone could utter such a statement in a Yoruba city aloud, without fear or sensitivity to our feelings. I felt under seige by enemies I never knew existed. A lot of people heard but no one said a thing. I decided saying nothing was also the best course of action, hurriedly paid for my purchases and left. I began thinking, could all those hateful comments I see on nairaland be the reality, I decided it couldn’t be. 8 months later, one cool eveningI was in a shop on my street in ibadan, a middle aged igbo man walked in, he looked educated, like the banker sort. asked the price of an item, and discovered that the price had almost doubled due to the dollar scarcity. Then he began, raining curses on all yoruba from our illustrious father, the sage Awolowo down to abiola, obasanjo and down to the rest of us. I was shocked again but this time it wasn’t, as much as the first of course. This time I was also angry I debated in my mind whether to confront the man, but then I thought confronting him wasn’t going to change his mind, it was either going to lead to physical altercation or a shouting match. So I left the shop. Then next day I saw the nairaland comments in a new light. Of course I had been fooling myself thinking it was all inconsequential, it was a person behind those comments afterall. I was disappointed and It was at that point I started feeling a bit of hatred for my igbo brothers especially the ipobs. Now this week a lot has changed too. I must confess that during this whole wahala in the east, I was happy that finally those who hated me for “no reason” ,called my people cowards and so on were being dealt with, the images of people like me being made to wallow in the mud was hilarious,and of course the routing of the self acclaimed Supreme leader, Nnamdi Kanu,a man who has called for my people to be killed and now hiding like a rat. but then I began seeing young men dead in Keke napep which was heart breaking, seeing people defeated and dejected was just too much. And I thought, this isn’t what I wanted.they may or may not hate me for being yoruba and apart from the insults and curses and the wishes of some of them to see my tribe exterminated, no Igbo man has ever done me any physical harm for being yoruba. I lived in the north for 12 years and those years were characterized by ethnic and religious bloodshed perpetrated by the hausa-fulani on my people and till this day I don’t hate the hausa-fulani because during that time, there were a lot of them ready to sacrifice their lives for others they don’t even know. So why would I hate my igbo brothers. They felt the pain of a bloody civil war and today they are being marginalized in national affairs. I can’t in good conscience support their annilation or subjugation. Maybe we did play a part against them in the Civil War or not, I actually don’t know for sure. Because in the accounts of the Civil War both sides would always claim to be right. And if truly we did I can only say sorry and say to myself it wasn’t my fault because I wasn’t even born then, but now I feel standing by and watch them marginalized and subjugated while either approving or saying nothing would be an actual crime. I want to appeal to my yoruba brothers that we should try to show some love to our brothers in the south. Some may want to harm us but at the moment that is proving to be impossible. We should be magnanimous enough to belive in the humanity of others, the act of generalizing a whole group of people whether yoruba igbo or hausa as bad should be stopped so we can find a way to live in harmony either as neighbors in separate countries or together.if not for the sake of unity,then for the sake of development and prosperity we must see that this injustice is redressed whether or not we think they would come to our aid if the roles were reversed. I’ve seen other threads of some igbos and yorubas waving the olive branch and I feel both sides should accept and find a way forward.the social media is powerful and while the effects of these ‘little gestures’ may not be felt in the next week,I belive it surely would make a difference 10,20 years from now.to my Yoruba brothers im not saying turn the other cheek ,I’m saying we need to be human and try as much as we can to douse this tension.lets scale down our need to throw jibes at each other.may God bless Nigeria and help us heal.

A reasonable country don't need all these useless trade alliance. Nations should be thinking of circuit economy

lmao noting peson no go hear for nairaland, even the US the biggest economy in the world can't do without trade science. Chai the world is talking about global economy you talking about circuit economy. Your case go worse pass North Korea

Lmao, we've been played, I just realized it was the author of the the article that over sensationalized the situation. So no one threatened impeachment, the Senate only said no confirmations. Our journalists sef.

Blue3k:
You're still wrong.

well the matter is in court, the Judiciary will tell us who is wrong or right. We always like to make a mountain out of a molehill. How does an arm of government telling another it doesn't have certain powers become such a big deal. The Judiciary is always there to settle such matters

Blue3k:
You're still wrong. Read National Lottery Act of 2005. Again my point about education system failing you stands. Read section 8 (1) of the national lottery act which states that the appointment of the DG is subject to senate’s confirmation. Lol at who ever liked your comment.

Link: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=http://www.natlotregcom.gov.ng/downloads/NLA_2005.pdf&ved=0ahUKEwiAq9r6h_DUAhUE2oMKHQweAS4QFggdMAA&usg=AFQjCNFq8lwm3_S2gH4QOnabdcKQrS5LrQ

erm are you sure you read the post you quoted correctly or you must have quoted the wrong post. And by the way you didn't need to bring up the act on lottery commission or isn't it the same one the Ag sent for confirmation? I'm sure the one the Senate is talking about was about the efcc

Blue3k:
Seriously Do Nigerians think? You guys rush to comment without even examinin situation. The senate has power to confirm appointments. Why do you guys see nothing wrong with exexuactive branch over stepping its authority. You guys just hypocritical tribalist and sectionalist. Osinbajo just like Buhari is wrong.

Ps: stop using word coup. Impeachment is Democratic process that requires the majority of the votes of both houses. Coup d'etat just require guns.

You got it wrong, in Nigeria we have a constitution, however flawed it way be, we have and is binding on us all, whether executive, legislature e,Judiciary or the common man. Right now the acting president, a professor of law said he went through the Constitution and he wasn't able to find where it was written that the legislature has such powers, now I'm not saying he is right or wrong, and like someone said the matter is already at the Supreme Court, the Judiciary being the only body that can interpret any law would tell us who has the power to make confirmation of appointments . so except you have found the section in the Constitution that gives the legislature the power to make confirmations I will tell you to stop assuming. The powers and extent of such power granted each of the arms of government is clearly stated in the Constitution.

cjrane:
What you failed to notice about AREWA is that they are always careful to do things where they won't put their people in any disadvantage. You have to learn how to use your brain more if you want people to follow you. The moment they think you are an eediot that doesn't care, and speaks without thinking, you immediately have no followers. Better take my advice seriously. If you think Igbos are blind and can be led by a fool, then you are in for a rude awakening.

Nnamdi Kanu erred by asking for a boycott of a state elections instead of federal elections (Presidential, Senate,etc). He will fail, because people don't want to go back to the days of no salaries for years and complete collapse of every sector.

Igbos are complaining about criminal neglect by federal government which is why you should call for Presidential election boycott where Igbos have zero representation. Instead it is the very few performing governors in Igboland that have managed to develop their states with the tiny meager resources that you want them replaced with a sole Administrator from Katsina?

Boy, if you make an error in judgement, retrace your steps, if you insist upon it, everything and support you have seen so far will fizzle away because you would be acting like the same thoughtless dictators ruling Nigeria that doesn't care about people lives but their own comfort. I am giving this advice as an IPOB member that knows this is a useless and thoughtless strategy that won't work and will only end with a Fulani Sole Administrator in Government House Awka. Which we will not accept.

If you think i'm Afonja, read my previous posts and see that i'm a more dedicated IPOB than you are and i am saying the leader was reckless this time in asking for no elections in Anambra. i would have obeyed him if he asked my to pick up arms instead of worsening the suffering already on people by asking them to sacrifice more and more and more. They should stop all these and give us guns to end the rubbish zoo.

afonjaheadhunt:
It is either Afonjas are right that Igbo's are confused and don't know what they want or Igbo's themselves are fearful cowards, But, One thing is certain "Kanu definitely knows what he want and is all out to get it, see how Arewa maintained their stance on the "Quick Notice" But coward Igbo's be fretting over an election, Many of you saying you don't support Kanu/ Ipob approach to secession, now tell;

Which approach do you support? Ojukwu's civil war? Uwazurike's Massob? Or you want when Afonjas declare then we follow? Emmmm? Many of you Igbo's are cowards, and confused no better than Afonjas, two faced snakes, speaking from both side of the mouth. You dare call Ipobs miscreants? Same group for the first time ever in Nigeria's history gave Igbo's a voice today Nigeria is listening.

This same group have put their lives on the line for Igbo's, our first ever foot soldiers like Arewa, OPC and ND Militants. Lost lives while you spineless dolts hide behind your keyboards in your wardrobes, yet you are bold to call them names online, it is no fault of yours, Internet have created warriors, only difference the battle field is online and the Amour, your keyboards while the blood you spill is the data you burn.

Igbo cowards what do you want? Do you want Biafra or not? If you want Biafra then why participate in Nigeria's elections still? When you know that a successful no-election compliance will not just send a message to the federal government but to the world as for Ohananeze we know they are under the pay roll of federal government just like the Sultan of Sokoto, Emirs, SG, and Uwazurike.

As for me nwa Awka Etiti, Idemili, Anambra State I stand with Ipob No election if not for anything, for Igbo's to send a message to the FG at least for once. Afonjas have done it June 12, SS with militancy, Arewa with Boko haram, and they were all rewarded, so why the fear, northern youths that gave Oct 1 deadline why don't they fear militarization of their state or state of emergency, we fear because we are confused.

A saying goes he who aims for the stars falls within the skies, so if we are successful with the no election and several other civil disobedience acts, even if we don't get Biafra we will get true federalism, Regionalism, or Confederation, all of which will be good for ndigbo at least that way we have our destiny in our hands. Ndigbo our fear of the Anambra election boycott are unfounded, believe.

Do we realize the implications if Ipob fails? We will forever be chest beats never to be taken seriously as for our elders/ elites the Nigerian government know they are sellouts and toothless bull dogs that's why the government have never taken them seriously, the only reason Ipob is taken seriously is because it is a movement by the youth and can spawn a revolution as the are unshaken to their resolve.

The Useless Ohaneze chief is even trying to play the card of disunity to achieve his aim but it will fall on him because an Anambra man can hardly insult an Abia man but will easily call him a wawa goat, he is stupid for playing that card and making me say that for the first time. Why would he try to pitch states against each other, Ipob have no borders, so they don't know who is Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, IMO, or Enugu.

This thread is directed to Igbo sellouts and cowards in our midst who don't know what they want, many of you whose parents can't even successfully gather their Umunna or Umuada for a kins meeting be calling Kanu names a man who have gathered more than Igbo thinkers, scholars, Renowned journalists, and the all massive masses ever ready to die for the liberation or their unborn children.

Now you Igbo coward, confuse lots and anti Kanu/Ipob also tell me what have you done for Biafra or the Igbo nation?.

Wow, just wow. That was an informative and educative read. Thanks op

The guy should just politely ask for APC membership form, ipodian yoots now confused as fk

I don't understand why everybody especially igbos are scared of a quit notice.. It is evident that it was a ploy/warning to ipob/igbos to consider the benefits they enjoy as Nigerians and what they stand to loose if they push for biafra. and besides they(arewa youths) didn't threaten violence, the north is quite peaceful now unlike some decades ago. To a large extent their objective worked in that serious considerations and consultations have been going on in the east. Now they have the facts of what they face in the event of secession and they can work with that and come to a conclusion if that's what they really want . because it looked like many igbos wanted secession but weren't sure what it meant and what they would get. The Igbos who are not in support are coming out to do so, those who want biafra are not being fanatic about it. That is the way it should be, it's a normal thing for people to seek for self determination, however what is wrong is for the movement to be extremist. No one should call a country a zoo, and insulting others is not the way.

So the northerners have used the quit notice to call the SE to a forced parley. Now the stand of the FG has been made known to all and sundry. Be they arewa or ipob. But in truth we all know this to be a clear warning to the SE. Now they were forced to parley without promise of a better deal or a compromise . if only ipob hadn't used such crude and reckless methods, it would at least have gotten something out of this. Lesson to be learnt is always do things right way.

GreatSE:
Northerners have understood what will befall them, This afonja man who has not seen war in his region should tread cautiously..... we are leaving in peace but dont threaten us with war history....we are fearless.

Let me guess, kanu has hidden 1 million trained biafra soldiers somewhere to fight us abi? You people always start what you cannot finish. Na we go still finish whatever una start as usual.

cumbak60:
@pazienza, a complete one man squad against hordes of afonja military. You're strong man. You too much man.

pazienza tried his best but him wound last last noni , the hypocrisy, betrayal and short sightedness displayed by the igbos towards the yorubas here stinks so much it can't be salvaged. That is why this thread is poison to every igbo man. Any igbo dude trying to interpret, modify, downplay the igbo madness displayed here go eventually wound ni. Ask your oga pazienza. .

Pavore9:
Who were those screaming "Biafra or death"?

they know themselves, most have gone underground since" the kaduna declaration " feeling ashamed. But then all igbos must take the blame. And those who stood by and watched their tribe shamed by ipob should take the bulk of the blame.

Now we can all agree that the igbos were only bluffing with their noise about biafra. They don't really want to go. Most of us have been wondering how igbos who are virtually everywhere across the length and breadth of nigeria could ever want to leave. Now their bluff has been called and they are now objects of pity. Biafra was a joke taken too far and all igbos most take the blame including those who didn't shout the usual biafra or death chants. The OP is a typical example. He has been shouting biafra as if it will suddenly become a garden of eden if realised. igbos were told to leave and we have igbo mouths agape in disbelief, the so called 'parasites' turned the tables and the reality hit them straight in the face. Now they are begging and giving explanations why they shouldn't be pushed out . the Igbos now behaving like a wife who after serially threatening divorce was asked to leave now changes tune to the usual "so it's true? You want me to leave so you can marry another wife?". Now I see igbos been even more submissive than they ever were and we are left wondering why a once great race decided to take such monumental fall from grace, as if controlled by higher powers.

hammerF:
Not me, I am home bound. I am talking about people interested in Lagos. I generally think Igbo will need time to completely withdraw Buisness interest in Lagos and Abuja whilst they reinvest back home. Hence Resident Permit and Visa requirement.

ok I get it, you don't have any investment in lagos, how many igbos with investments do you know that are willing to relocate to biafra to start afresh? Or how many are even considering such move?you see relocation isn't something you can just wish for. And besides we will just go ahead and tax those with investments, those who sell gala or own 2x2 shops will be deported immediately. Just ask how much the US makes on visa applications yearly and you go Fear. Also you will need to pay extra for what you import. In a few years the south west will be like dubai where the citizens just enjoy while the foreigners do the all the work.

A truce of some form has been called many times and it didn't work. However it's true the status quo does us no good. But what to do? Do I as a Yoruba man watch as lies are peddled against my people? Do I sit and take the blame for a civil war I know nothing about? And do I sit and watch when an igbo man decides a Yoruba man is responsible for his present state whether or not he is to blame for his present condition? I say no to that, even though I always try to defend my people at any given time I myself have done so without testing my conscience and breaking rules or with insult to anyone or tribe. Now as regards relationship between the two tribes in the real world? The Day I began to loose the respect I had for igbos was not when I read a comment on naira land. But it was in my own state, oyo state where an igbo man, mind you old man and not a kid was raining curses on the yorubas as the election results were read on the radio, in one department store. Right here in my own state,an old igbo man was raining curses on my own people, imagine the insensitivity, arrogance on Yoruba soil. so Mr op. Don't be deceived, it's the same people you meet in your day to day life that come to spread hatred here, the fact that some are ashamed enough to hide it, unlike that old man is the only difference . so even though the status quo does us no good, I can't imagine letting these lies and defamation against people stand, the Internet is very powerful . Should the igbos decide to be more courteous and not result to blaming the yorubas for every problem of theirs , then we too will back down afterall we are the omoluabis

jpphilips:
You don't need anyone to tell you, go to PH, from Lagos Bus stop to Tourist Beach, every landlord there is either Okirika or Kalabari, in 1967, they were all igbos. Who knows, the Yorubas will be the biggest beneficiaries of this current agitation, I envy them really!!
Every 50yrs, the igbo man will commit a political suicide and blame others for his woes!!
Ordinary Nnamdi kanu who is still living in his father's house is now the Trumpet to decide the fate of igbos with properties littered everywhere, Nnamdi kanu whose village does not produce palm oil will decide the fate of Niger delta crude oil, just imagine the insult and disgrace that lvnatic is bringing upon igbos.

guy u no go kill peson . Lol I don't know if they've been somehow programmed to repeat their mistakes

Odingo1:
Those northerners are cowards and not serious, they have not tell anything in plain terms,the plain terms is to mandate the FG to grant Biafra to Igbos then mandate them to leave to their country,then the Igbos will have a government policy that will engineer and manage the influx of displaced people into Biafra. Let the northerners stop deceiving their selves until they call for creation of Biafra and then the eviction.
After the creation of the State of Israel in 1949 the Jews evacuated Europe and after the independence of South Sudan they left Sudan, Igbos cant move because there is no soverignity yet to champion their goal,IPOB and MASSOB is asking for Biafra,what they should do is to grant Biafra instead of beating about the bush and moving in circle.

You should have thought of this before burning all bridges. So if Nigeria breaks with this level of enmity such as we have at present you expect your enemies to make it easy for you? Your precious ipob made sure that Nigeria would never break on a cordial manner .check all the people's of the world seeking independence, none has taken a similar path to ipob, except the Palestinians, look at where it got them.

Odingo1:
Why are you people so bitter about the Igbos in wishing that they are massacred ,If Nigerians are tired of them,they should grant them Biafra and ask them to relocate to Biafra[b],it doesn't have to be through committing genocide against the Igbos[/b],let there be peaceful separation,self determination is not a call for war,you must not force people to live you

try to understand no one is asking for another person to be massacred. The northerners have told you in plain terms to go. You think if you decide to leave anyone will stop you? You will be allowed to leave you just might loose all you've worked for. That is why we've been telling you guys to think before acting. You all pined your hopes on one man to do all that for you. You should have asked kanu what plans he had to move your properties down to alaigbo since his methods and practices obviously didn't include such. Tell me are you willing to leave peacefully if you are evicted without your properties?

pazienza:
Good, the end is at hand.

Kanu said that when he is done, Nigerians would be the ones begging to give us Biafra.

Looks like the man had his analysis spot on!

Now the big huddle is him standing firm and not allowing the current Igbo political class swooning all around him compromise him. Cos that would be fatal to this movement and it would take us quite another decade to get to this particular threshold again.

begging? Seriously are you for real? In what universe does a quit notice translate to begging. You seriously haven't thought of the possibility of programs against igbos? Look you may soon have to fight another civil war, and by the looks of it, you would even be more unprepared than you were in 1966. Now with an even less experienced leader in kanu. I seriously don't get you guys, what is the point of continuing with a failed tactic. You igbos need your elders now more than ever.

DrGoodman:
Let me wait and see if DSS will not arrest Ango Abdullahi for inciting violence against a section of the country.

As usual, its the yorubas who will carry the matter for head while their roofs still remain brown.

i actually hate the man, but can you please point out where exactly he made inciting comments against anyone? You people have to face the truth. You need your elders now more than ever that is if they actually exist

On a serious note the Igbos really messed up. Now the north is using their tactic of blackmail against them and the tables have turned. When we were warning them to be careful and asking where their elders were and why they didn't say anything, this is exactly what we envisaged. They should have known that even if the igbos have been wronged in any way, there are ways to go about getting redress for such not the ipob tactic they employed which has now backfired. They went in having made enemies on every side and somehow hoped to come out victorious. If something isn't done igbos might become fair game to anyone with bad intentions. To the silent igbos who don't share the same thought process as ipob members you just must speak up and make a decision or others will decide your fate

And The igbos had to wait till the north called their bluff. Now we are hearing all sorts of derogatory terms like IgboMustGo, QuitNoticeToIgbos. All because they allowed ipob to lead them astray... Shame. We all knew they didn't want biafra in the first place. Don't burn the bridge after crossing, you will need it on your way back

humilitypays:
‎May God bless you my brother for being honest. Sometimes I wonder what Igbos did to Yorubas that Yoruba youths hate Igbos so much with venomous spirit.

History can testify that Igbo people have never for once fought with Yorubas or attacked Yorubas anywhere, but always inter-marry with Yorubas and live peacefully with Yorubas but Yorubas just hate Igbos for no reason whatsoever.

Igbos till tomorrow prefer to live with Yorubas than with violent Hausa/Fulani. The only reason Igbos accuse Yorubas or point wrong fingers at Yorubas is due to Yoruba people's frequent betrayal of Igbos and other Southern minorities to align politically with Hausa/Fulani. Aside that, Igbo love Yorubas but Yorubas just hate Igbos for no reason other than just to hate.

And what Yoruba youths here don't realize is that once Hausa/Fulani decides to go violent and kill Igbos in the north, they cannot even distinguish between Igbos and Yorubas so they will kill both Igbos, Yorubas, Niger Delta, etc because to Hausa/Fulanis, anybody from the Southern Nigeria is 'Igbo'!

I support any move that will hasten or fasten the development of Nigeria or the regions that makeup Nigeria because as it stands now, Nigeria is a mess....nothing is working....youths cannot even guarantee their future....youths will labor, graduate from higher institution and yet no job for them but some few idiots stole our national wealth, keep trilions of $$$ in foreign countries‎, dug hole in various places to hide it for their yet unborn generation and we think everything is right

If re-structuring Nigeria will bring about the positive change every Niger‎Ian youth craves for, then let's all call for a total re-structuring of Nigeria into a regional force. And if peaceful division of Nigeria would bring the change, let us happily accept it.

For those who don't understand the Biafra agitation, let me give u a hint. Biafra will be a youth-driven‎ country where no-nonsense politicians will be welcomed because Igbo youths are ready to stone any idiot politician who tries to mess Biafra up to death.

Biafra will be governed by youths and corruption will never be tolerated and all those old Igbo thieves calling themselves politicians and elders know this...thats why many of them don't want Biafra. if they try to loot in Biafra, youths will mobilize and burn down their house and take over their properties because from Biafra military to Police to leadership to judiciary will be revolutionary and driven by youths hungry for fast development.

And for Niger Deltas, it is not by force to join Biafra but Niger Delta are our beloved brothers...we cannot abandon them because we fought together and died together in 1967 - 1969, so crude oil cannot divide us now.....Biafra will operate as an independent region; Southeast region and Southsouth region. each region will be solely responsible for their resources....but we will be under one national umbrella; Biafra to unite us and give us the power and force to fight enemies or foreign intruders, that's why Southsouth must align with Igbos and go together to succeed together.

Igbos are not after crude oil....crude oil will soon lose its value worldwide as more renewable and cheaper energy sources and technology springs up, so let's not allow crude oil to divide us.

Yes maybe some useless Igbos may have done Southsouth bad in the past, they don't represent Igbos....Igbos have no issue with Niger Delta...you are our beloved brothers...but if u decide to stay with Nigeria or be your own country, that's fine, but there should be a referendum to allow Igbo-speaking Southsouth minorities decide if they want to go with Biafra or stay with Niger Delta.

If Biafra comes peacefully, it's good....and we are asking for Nigeria to peacefully divide so every tribe can succeed happily at their own pace. we wish Yoruba to establish a successful Oduduwa Country; I am sure Yorubas will make a great country. We wish Northerners will form their unique Arewa country and practice their religion peacefully without intruders just as UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, etc does...and we wish you all succeed as we wish our Biafra after a peaceful division of Nigeria.


We want the division so peace can reign, so enemity can stop, so tribal wars can reduce, so ethnic sabotage in politics can reduce, so all these unwanted killings and violence can reduce.

We are too big to be a one country as black people we are....we don't accept ourselves so easily like the whites, so peaceful division will be a good idea for us all.

God bless all Nigerians of all tribes and ethnicity‎

Good morning Nigeria‎
‎

lol keep your love to yourselves, it's clear you hate the yorubas and the feeling is mutual, no need to pretend. I grew up admiring the igbos and wanted to be friends with them cos my father told me about the civil war and how your father's rose above the pain and suffering to once again become Nigerians and how you were welcomed back to our lands and we in turn took care of you and helped you get back to your feet. Now for some reasons your son's and daughters who weren't born decided to open the old wounds and insult their way for selfish gains. Now you have lost the respect all Nigerians had for your people because of hate. The once great igbo tribe has now been reduced to unity begging igbo ipob must go. We are all tired of you.

My igbo ipob must go bag business is about to boom, I swear if anyone steals this genius business idea, the thunder that will fire such person has already completed 44 trillion push ups

Nnamdi Kanu asked for a peaceful referendum

Your Oba threatened to drown my people in the Lagoon
