OfoIgbo:
Nigeria was nearly two years old, a hndred years ago. But I understand your point though. Nigeria is an artificial setup

The funny thing is that, had the White Man not come to create Nigeria, Everbody would have been doing what Igbos are doing about Biafra. Every tribe,especially the major ones, would have been organising themselves and the minorities around them into their own separate countries. But because the White man came, a lot of people now say "we are one Nigeria because Lord Lugard came from Britain to tell us so!". I laugh

thiagoneves:
Only one thing comes to my mind whenever biafra and ndigbo is mentioned and that's laughter. These people are the most delusional people on the surface of this earth. They keep opening beer parlours in other countries and calling them embassies.

Now they're trying to include SS in their failed project. There's no way they can form biafra without encroaching on other people's territory cos they are not geographically connected to each other. Nigeria is ready to give you biafra today as long as you form biafra from your 5 landlocked red soil erosion ravaged poverty stricken SE states. I'll personally pop champagne to celebrate your departure. As for those of you calling for war, hope you guys can fight when it finally starts. No part of SS land will be given to you to form your proposed joke of a country. Igboland starts from Asaba and ends in your cursed SE region.

The SS will happily form their own republic while you guys wallow in your biafra. I can bet that biafra will be the poorest country on earth cos there's nothing economically viable or of importance in your region. The only thing you're blessed with is red soil and erosion that's why you migrate in packs each day to other people's region to sell gala and sell rat poison.

N.B I won't be surprised if I'm called Yoruba and any mod that bans me will die in his or her sleep cos I've not broken any rule.

Let me tell you something you may not know. Nigeria, states and the SS have one thing in common, they are all artificial creations. 100 years ago, there was no Nigeria, no states and no 'SS'. But there were Igbos, Igboids and Igbo speaking people who have existed for thousands of years. The so called 'SS' you are talking about is not even recognised in the constitution. The SS is just a geographical expression and not a people. It is the fundamental right of the Igbos to choose if they want to part of the British creation called Nigeria or not. By 'Igbos', I mean not just those in the 5 Igbo States but all Igbos that are outside it even in the 'SS' such as Igbos of the lower Benue,Delta-Igbos,Etche-Igbos,Ahaoda-Igbos,Ekpeye-Igbos,Ikwere-Igbos and so on who are found in the 'SS'. These people have Igbo surnames and speak Igbo as their ancestral language. If all other ethnic groups want to stay in Nigeria, I wish them best of luck but if Igbos want have our own country which is our God given right, it should not be anyone's business because Nigeria, like I said, is just the fabrication of the White Man. Nobody would have been a Nigerian if the White man never came. The people own the land, the land never owns the people.

okay.... please stop comparing Nigeria with America, America is simply fighting a war in another man's land, a terrorist land. This is Nigeria our country our land our territory.

It is still the same thing. Sokoto,Borno,,maidugri and all of the North are not my fathers land. I'm an Igbo man from the east. Nothing connects me to these people except Lord Lugard. Nigeria is not my country just because the White Man came from Europe to say so

My fellow Igbos! Almighty America could not defeat the Islamic fundamentalists in Afghanistan. America could not deafeat Islamic insurgents in Iraq. Islamic insurgency is almost impossible to stamp out once it has taken root. But some misguided Nigerians with misplaced hope think the the APC Buhari Goverment will end Boko Haram, not a chance. I almost lost my Grandmother to the Nyanya bombing last year. So I am calling on my fellow Igbos and all people who are from the SS/SE political zone to unite and pull out of this fictitious creation of the White man called Nigeria. The Northerners are not our brothers, if it were not for Lord Lugard, we would not even know who they are. Let us Secede from this British contraption and send all Fulani people packing from the SS/SE zone. We have nothing to gain in Nigeria and everything to lose if we stay in it. I say this not for us, but for our unborn children who will be born into the Islamic insurgency known as Nigeria. A word is enough for the wise

Even though Igbos are spread out all over Nigeria and beyond the world, the idea of a separate,independent nation is an irresistible idea to most Igbos. Nigeria breaking up is just a matter of time and it might have nothing to do with Igbos. Nigeria is just a fictitious creation of the White Man and such things never stand the test of time. One of the main reason why I want my fellow Igbos to separate from Nigeria is because we Igbos cannot be in a country were religious fundamentalism exists. We cannot be in a country where Boko Haram exists. Igbos must regain their freedom which the British stole to create Nigeria.

The OP just wants to know if he can get Igbos arguing amongst themselves
