SAN FRANCISCO, 08, (THEWILL) –
Omonefe Odunayo Ogungbemi, a Nigerian, is seeking refuge in Canada, alongside her husband, Olubunmi Seun Ogungbemi; and three children, Taraoluwa, Tifeoluwa and Tamilore, due to severe threat and assault by members of the Black AXxe Confraternity and their thugs while she worked as a lecturer in the Department of Optometry, University of Benin from June 30th, 2015 until her recent resignation on Monday, February 27 2017.

In a teary letter obtained by THEWILL, Omonefe revealed that she obtained her Doctor of Optometry degree in 2007; and most recently her Masters in Cell and Molecular Biology in February 2017 from the University of Benin, Nigeria.

After gaining some years of optometric private practice management skills, she applied to and got employed in the University of Benin as Lecturer II because the new job was more flexible and gave her more time to spend with her children.

Her troubles began in August 2016, after she marked scripts for a course (Epidemiology OPT 413) which she taught during the second semester.

Shortly after grades were given out, she received a strange phone call asking that she pass certain students and change their grades from “F’s” to PASS, in exchange for large sums of money

“To this I vehemently refused and told the caller that I was not selling at a market where grades could be bought. At this time, I did not report the issue to the school because there were no threats made at this time and I had no idea whom the caller was,” she wrote.

“In September 2016, a new school semester started and I had a new set of students. In the next month, October, I once again started receiving written messages on the front wind shield of my vehicle saying that no student must fail my course (Health Science for Optometrists OPT 428),  or I shall be severely dealt with.

“This was a threat and I reported to the school authorities who said that they would look into the matter, but nothing was done. In November 2016, I was in the middle of a lecture teaching 400 level students when a large group of students, who were also members of the Student Union Government, walked into a lecture theatre where I was teaching demanding that I end the class immediately.

“I politely asked them to wait because I had the lecture hall booked but they refused. They started reigning insults, were shouting and ordered my students out. It was only then that some of them identified that they were there to deliver a message from their cult- the Black Axxe Confraternity.

“They said that I had ignored them so far and unless I passed every student in my class for that semester, I would pay the ultimate price. This time, I reported their threats to the police; however; since I could not identify the men involved, the case was left unsolved.”

She however sought counsel from other professors who suggested that she did what was demanded of me, because failing a student was not worth her life which she disagreed and refused to be bullied.

“On the 24th of January, 2017 my house at 6, Restoration Way, Ogba was set ablaze by suspected arsonists. It was only on police investigation that we knew that this havoc was perpetrated by the cult gang, when my neighbor (one Mr. Sammy Kayode) reported that a man had come around a day before asking for the whereabouts of myself and my husband and also asking what time we would be home,” she continued.

“Thankfully, there was no one at the house at that time; however, we regrettably lost our dogs and a lot of our personal items in the fire.

“On my way to work on the 20th of February, 2017 at about 8:15 am, I had just driven past the University of Benin Teaching Hospital gate, when my car, a black Hyundai Accent was cut off by two other cars, both black Kia Rios and I was forced off the road, which nearly caused me to have a collision with an electric pole.

“The men who totaled five in number got out of their vehicles. One of them; who seemed to be the leader; was commanding me, while the others held their guns in the air. He demanded I came down from my vehicle while two others forced me into the back seat of one of the black sedans.

“The other two men (whom I later gathered were often referred to as “Pastor” and “Mobutu” by the other cult members during the course of my kidnap) entered their other vehicle parked further ahead of the scene.

“I had been kidnapped by five of them who were speaking an unidentified Nigerian language, which I guessed was most likely was Ijaw language. They drove towards Oluku junction for about 45 minutes and parked by some scanty bushes which I discovered as we continued to walk in was near a creek.

“We entered this bush by walking on a preexisting footpath. The final area we reached was swampy and marshy which made my feet very cold. I was kept in this area without extra clothing, food and my antihypertensive medication for five days.

“During this time they mentioned to me that they were from the cult and that one of my students was related to a high ranking member in the Black Axxe , also one of their ruses to getting students to join the cult is by promising them they will graduate with good grades and find jobs without hassles.

“Since I was not doing what they had always instructed me to, I had become a problem for them. I was terrified that I would be killed during those five days that I was held. I was also raped repeatedly by two of the men who wore masks on their faces all the time. There was even an argument as to if they should release me or kill me.

“I promised to do upgrade all scores and after five days of unbearable torture, I was finally let to go. I was led to the side of the Lagos Benin express way and I boarded a bus to Uselu market looking tattered and abused.

“The torture I had just experienced was too much to bear. At the time of my release, insect bites, and abrasion on my skin had become sore and painful. I was in so much fear and I began to suspect anyone that came across my path.

“My husband had reported the kidnap to the police, and on my release, we reported hoped up at the police station as well. We were then told that they would continue with their thorough investigation on the case.

“Consequent upon this, I received a phone call from an anonymous caller, telling me the Black axxe cult had their ears and eyes everywhere. He also asked why I had gone to the police to report the kidnapping against their warnings, and that this act would make them descend on my family. He made a promise that the next fire in our house would be carried out when everyone would be at home! I was petrified.

“At this time I had to abandon my phone number and I got a new line and a brand new handset immediately.  This was because I did not want them tracking me through any of the social networks or apps.

“Upon my release on the 25 the February 2017, I was taken to Liola Cross Hospital, Benin City. I was examined as an out patient and was given medications. As I left the hospital that night, we all left for Abeokuta, Ogun State and checked into a Royal Pavillion Hotel.

“To my amazement, I received a call on my new phone line from someone with the same voice I recognized as that of the anonymous caller quoting my room number; and also saying that we were not safe anywhere. It was at that time I concluded that this Black Axxe cult had the strongest network of criminals I could ever have imagined.

“I decided to quit my job at the university and Bunmi suggested a brief vacation so that the resignation could be finalized and things blow over. Before we left Nigeria, I marked my final papers and not wanting to compromise my ethics and intergrity, I marked the papers giving each person what they rightfully deserved and then handed in the papers along with my resignation on Monday, February 27th 2017.

“I and my family left Nigeria the next day and arrived Canada on the 1st of March, 2017. I got calls and whatsapp messages from my neighbor informing me that strange men had come to his home asking for me. I immediately called him back and he told me the members said they awaited to kill me and my children. I was terrified at this time and asked him to report to the police.

“He said he already had and that the police told him they were overwhelmed with work and there was nothing much they could do as I was already out of Nigeria.

“These men who had identified themselves as Black Axxe members sent me a message once more stating that my resignation would not be allowed. They warned that I had been treating them as a joke all this while, and that I had to return to my job to pass every student as I had promised during the kidnap, or my family and I would be killed as a warning to other professors who dared to go against them.

“I am so much more terrified because I was willing to let go of the job just to appease these gang members, and it seems as though they would not relent until they take my life and the life of my loved ones.

“From the way they tracked my all the way to Abeokuta, to the extent of mentioning my room number, It serves as an affirmation to the fact that Black Axxe Confraternity is well connected and diverse and that their members are spread throughout Nigeira and other countries.

“I rummaged through all the assault I had gone through while in the hands of the kidnappers and I am not willing to watch my children suffer similar fates. I decided to speak with a lawyer in Toronto and from there we were able to file for protection.

“It had never been my intention to make a refugee claim in Canada. I had always been favorable to the idea of living in Canada and applied through the express entry program, to which I am currently in the express entry pool for. However, based on the threats on both me and my family, we have decided to seek protection at this unexpected time, because we can not return home for fear of death.

“So far, the police have not been able to protect I and my family. I therefore am in consistent fear because I do not know what evil will be meted on me or my family next.

“My family and I are at your mercy. Please help

When I saw uniben, I was so interested to read becos I finished from there (based on Ekosodin and Osasogie things) but your post too long. I nor fit read.

PenisCaP:
Hahahaha like seriously if u did msc and cant write simple english then u should be exchanged with a Pug bcoz its more useful than u are.
Hahahhaha.. i would rather spend the money on an im.becile than to send some1 like u to school
what a wasted money and effort... now i understand better why they say
"It is not how far, but how well"..
Dude u ar shallow i swear.. but u dnt know it.


It is not by doing msc its by defending it.
And with wat u hav written so far it shows that u ar shallow minded.


u did phd and doing ur msc yet u cant decipher the difference between typographical error and wrong grammar u have been using to mess up the whole forum.. hhahahahahahaha.
No be only msc... behind the phone in a faceless forum.. u can aswell tell me u hav 20 phd's
And also u lectured obama... buffoon!!
Equus caballus.!!!.

Sincerely, I can't help but laugh at you stupidity. I agree, I can't construct a simple sentence but likewise, you are struggling to spell simple words. Hahahaha!

I challenge you now to post what I said that is wrong in my construction and let's see who the dumb person is. Me nor dey sell motor parts for Alaba naa, dem train me go school.

I'm tempted to take this argument further by showing you what I have achieved and the most recent award I won in January. For now, I can't show u full pictures for some reasons and one of it is because you will see my top Ogas there, so I have to protect their faces as this is a real life picture and wouldn't risk my job because of a fool like you.

In that picture, they presented me with an award and a fantastic gift too. I was and have been celebrated before!! Who know you?

I work in a multinational firm (that you know very well if I mention it) and I was awarded as the best in a certain category in the entire African region in Quarter 3 (from Sept to Nov) of our business financial calendar year. I repeat, don't ever think everyone on Nairaland are dumb like you.

No matter what you want to say, it's rather too late and won't change what I have achieved.

For your info, I didn't say I already did my PhD; obviously you have problem with understanding English texts. Make we write in Igbo? Ewu biafra!!

I challenge you again, please show me where my English went wrong and let's review it. I trust myself!!

I said I'm going for my PhD soon but the glaucoma you are suffering from has blinded you to the point that you see things from upside down.

Please correct yourself with regards the below in RED. You struggled to put together a simple phrase, panel beating it with mumu spellings and you are here boasting about your nephew who is a genius. You will definitely need night tutorials from him. You think sey I dey sell market (motor tyre) ba? Hahahaha!

"Sikple grammartical error"

I have shown yours, Oya show me my own make we review am. e too sure for me; I nor fit EVER struggle to construct a sentence in English. Simple sentences for that matter. Liar!!! Hahaa

Please show me and correct me.


You can't achieve even half of what I have.

PenisCaP:
ahahahha see whos talkin about education.
Look at sikple grammartical errors in his write up. He cant even correct

Hahahahhaa.. "u trashed me".. by writing long meanless epistle?.. hahahahaha.
I bet u my genius nephew in ss2 will beat u hands down in construtive arguement..LOL

I just used one single line to pin u down and u started speaking from both sides of ur mouth.
Lol... tryin to deny ur initial comments.

Lol he said he trashed.
more like buhari acceptance speech and donald trump acceptance speech.
Go and replay both videos.
One spoke longer but made garbage points.
While d other was brief and straight up.

Trashed me

What is sikple grammartical error? I'm very sure that you actually meant to say simple grammatical error right?

I hope now you can take your own trashing. Can you see that you don't have a working brain? I trash you tire, so tey you begin trash yourself again

When people type "text" there is what we call typographical errors and it sometimes happens to someone like me who types very fast and long on a phone. sometimes you are just lazy to read through again and correct them or you didn't even notice, but you just hope that the reader will understand what you intended typing. I have seen so many typos on Nairaland but never assumed the person does not know anything because circumstances can warrant that and it's mainly because my brain is working. I can correct it and move on while reading.

Another cause is when your phone is malfunctioning while typing a text, it can bring out wrong spellings after you have typed.

See pot calling the kettle black! Mr sikple grammartical error

You don receive trashing tire from my hand.

Oh your nephew? Well, that's not you because at least you dull.

I hope your genius nephew can at least equal my achievement in MSc (double majors). You think I'm an illiterate? I'm entering for my PhD soon, I hope your nephew can catch up, let alone surpass it. You think everyone on nairaland is a dimwit like you.

Ewu biafra!

Odingo1:
and you think you have a country

Are you in togo?

DJEhimond:
Where is the traffic?

just 3 small buses and one lorry.

PenisCaP:
I swaer i didnt read ur trash..hehehehe.
Bcoz uspeak from both sides of ur mouth. shame on u a million times...
Double standard felow.
U are d daft person here..
I caught u redhanded with facts and u wana deny..
Hahahahahahahaha ...

Oh I'm so scared right now because u caught me lol.

You didn't read hahaha.LMAO!
Of cos, I don trash your butt well well with simple reasoning. If you are not daft you won't agitate for biafra. U dey follow crowd. I hope you have relocated to your village oo.

You are just like the other biafra follow-follow. When u expose them, they become violence. I have met only a few guys who knows what they are doing.

You have ran out of points, so you dey find something to hold. Go back to your shop jare, education is not for you. Hahaha

SirVintageCock:
Biafra is not about leaving your abode but changing nationality/ citizenship and to be treated with respect as a foreigner.
Do you think Britons are thinking of relocating in the event of an eventual Brexit?

You make me laff o! UK own different naa. They are leaving an association called E.U. Does it stop them being Europeans? No! Biafra is different becos the day you leave, you cease being a Nigerian.

E.U is an economical union which means U.K will not have common goal with them anymore economy wise.

You are a joke! So you want to be a biafran but live in Nigeria? Why? It's like saying a foreigner has right to live in the USA. The day you become a biafran, you have lost your right in Nigeria except you are legalized by whatever standard. There are some nations in this world that you can never get legalization.

If you are biafran and want to live in Nigeria then you are a fool. Are you not still going to be governed by a Nigerian? Will the Nigerian constitution not be your boss? In fact you would have made life difficult for yoursef the day you choose to be a foreigner.

Who asked you to leave? Person pursue you? So you wish to have same rights with Nigerians, IT'S NEVER GONNA HAPPEN ANYWHERE.

Your visa can be revoked and nothing will happen whether you have mansion here or not. Isn't that what they do to Nigerians abroad?

If Nigerians can kick out Ghana (Ghana must go), south Africans are killing black foreigners and even Zimbabwe attacked their whites, why can't Nigerians depot biafrans?

You want to eat your cake and have it ba? You nor serious. Geeez!! The most stupid thing I have heard so far in 2017.

You wish to create a country outside Nigeria becos u don't wanna have dealings with Nigerians but you want to live here and enjoy Nigerian things, spend Naira, follow Nigeria laws etc. Then why do you ask for biafra?

You see that most people calling for a country of their own does not know what they are doing. Una dey find easy landing.

DON'T GET ME WRONG, I'M NOT AGAINST BIAFRA OR WHATEVER BUT I'M JUST SAYING THINGS HOW THEY WILL HONESTLY BE.

If you are an Igbo man living in Nigeria after biafra is created, you should be afraid self becos the same people you hated are the ones you are now with as a stranger. Dem go frustrate your life.



Now, Atiku is calling for restructuring of Nigeria rather than break it but unwise people want to break it. I expected igbo to use IPOB to negotiate national conference or they will go but there is no such demand.

Fools dey here dey sey Na by force to live together? The igbos will be the biggest loosers due to their investments.

When they did sit at home order, Ladipo market opened ooo! Let's be wise pls.

PenisCaP:
Well im not here u argue whos smart or whos not.. but u clearley sounded unsmart in ur first comment now u are denying and twisting things up.
U are a hypocrite i i dnt like arguing with ur type
Becoz u cant stand for ur words.
Now u are trying to deviate.. hahaha dats very shocking.
Ur unstraight fowardness is mind blowing.

U clearly said "IF BIAFRA IS ACHEIVED NOW HAS NNAMDI KANU PUT INFRASTRUCTURESIN PLACE"?...as if nnamdi kanu is d only one to head biafra.
And i amswered ur question and said "he wont be d one to put infrastructure in place..bcoz biafrans hav the right people to do dat

U also said... "IGBO NEED TO WORRY TOO BUT YORUBAS WILL NOT HAVE PROBLEM BCOZ THEY ARE LEARNED..".
Even a primary school kid will get that message clear enuff.
And i listed to u people who ar able and worthy educated igbos to help biafra.


Thosr were ur words but now u want to twist it and deny...
And thats a significant of typical yoruba man.

I cant argue with ur kind of person bcoz u will twistung everything even u are caught red handed. SMH.

.

Jesus! You daft truth. Many of you guys shouting biafra are not well informed.

Where and how did I change what I said? Your problem is English.

1. Kanu is the one championing the course of biafra and if you want to make reference to biafra in terms of leadership, you are not wrong if you mention kanu. The young man is the major agitator and director of radio biafra (a voice). If I refer to kanu, I don't literally mean him as an individual but a team but he is the image of biafra in terms of leadership today. So I'm not wrong if I asked such.


2. Yoruba don't have problem! Meaning? OK a simple example is when someone tell you that they want to help you aquire something and after begging the person, he says don't worry you don't a problem. Does it mean there won't be challenges?

Use your brain nau! A primary school student would have catch up by now.

You said yoruba as scared because igbos want to leave as UN is meeting, so I said not so Bro becos yorubas don't have problems as they are learned. Does it sound like there won't be challenges? I'm talking long term that their education will come to play, plus they have Lagos as their capital with a lot of income.

I didn't say igbos are not learned, instead I used the word worry based on additional population in millions. There will naturally be economical challenges and that shud be a cause for worry. Get my point! Of cos, among the best doctors abroad are igbos but you are talking off point. I'm not comparing yoruba and igbo side by side in terms of academics but Hausas.

We have 3 subjects here (hausa, igbo and yoruba). If you remove igbo you will be left with hausas and yorubas alone whom the igbos are suggesting that they will suffer.

So I'm saying yoruba are learned (that is if you compare them with hausa) since they are the only two left behind if you remove igbo. Then I said igbos should be worried but not because they aren't learned but because of population inflation which will bring a lot of challenges. Yorubas will have decrease in pollution and have better landing than hausas, so I don't agree they have a lot to be afraid of. That's my point. I'm comparing yourba and hause but chipped in that Igbos should be worried on their own, when they move.

Chai! See as I dey use arithmetic explain give you, indeed primary school student beta pass u. I would have rope myself if I said igbos aren't learned but I didn't and u misunderstood my point. Shame on you.

JohnieWalker:
Shut up....Why are you guys in Lagos spreading falsehood? I am in Sabon Gari Kaduna State and I can boldly tell all the Igbos are still here doing their business. TBH its just 5% of the Igbo population that believes this Biafra whatever and they are majorly in the East. Over here, hausa's don't talk about it neither is it a topic here. May God punish all the bloggers and News media spreading this falsehood. Its only trending on nairaland.

Bro, God bless you! This thing na eastern thing. I'm in Lagos and all the igbos and calabars (who have a job and educated) that i know here don't care about leaving. We just joke about it in the office and most don't even believe in it. Only someone who is in the east will ask you who is based in the city to join him to do farm work. You think relocation is easy?

Besides, we all love each other but i know we have differences and quarrels too. All these ewdu, afonja, igbo this and that ends here on Nairaland. people talk recklessly on social media but not in real life.

anyways, lets be wise.

EzeUche:
How do we know if this is true?

If it is, then this is bad, because Igbos only want a referendum. Everyone is free to live in our region. We are not barbaric.

...............but kanu proved otherwise. That young man has been violent especially in words and has been careless with it.

You can actually beat drum of war with your mouth.

Really, igbo are peaeful people.

Blizzy9ja:
The first problem is our religion... Then we share other thing in common, I am from the Niger Delta but i feel more comfortable around an Igbo, Efik or any other person around this region than a hausa man who is very different in all ramification,,, the way he thinks, eats, talks just everything

Agreed Bro, me sef na from delta but my point is that diversity does not mean things cannot work, instead it's how the government is set up. If everyone manage what they have, there won't be a problem toda.


All this biafra shout, trust me if the government is set wrongly, then we Niger deltans will want to leave biafra if igbo colonize everything becos we own the oil. These things will always play out. See as hausa colonize everything, people are not happy. Igbo people here talk as if they own biafra and that's my concern. I am not against Biafra because i'm entitled to dual nationality

PenisCaP:
So others are not learned enuff?.
Look at ur kind of myopic thinking!

I dnt even know where to start to correct ur errors becox they ar to many.

Let me just correct u on 2 obvious points and leav the others.. bcoz ur erros are too many.
u aint thinking smart.

First of all nnamadi kanu is not and will not be president of biafra.. he has made that point clear.

2nnamdi kanu will not be the one to put "INFRASTRUCTURE IN PLACE" according to ur myopoc thought.

What u dont know is if biafra is finanly achieved.
Ngozi okonjo iwala.
Charles soludo.
Ike ekweremadu.
Chimamanda adieche.
Even others abroad will like philip emegwali, ekenedo, and many more that i cant remember, will like to come back home and help.

And many more intellectual biafrans in Nigerian goverment will automitally become and work for biafra infrastucture?. .

And u saying yorubas ar learned enuff as if igbos ar not... that comment alone shows that u aint wise or u ar a kid.
THINK!!.

Whao! I only you are half as smart as I am you will understand my points. Errors? Really?

I said It before that you don't read and understand.

1. I never mentioned kanu as president. Where you read am? I said what plans kanu and "team" have in place? Mind you, kanu has a lot to do in the beginning and that is actions by ideas. You can't lead people out with no where to put them, he will take responsibility till there is a soft landing. If he has no vision then his dream is dead.


2. These names you mentioned contributed to spoiling Nigeria at some point, at least not all but seed of corruption is sowed in most. I respect their intellectual capacity but we always have that in Nigeria but implementation is the issue.

3. I didn't say igbos are not learned. You see the mistake you people are making? You have colonized biafra and you accuse hausas of doing the same thing. Biafra is not igbo alone even though you are the majority. Niger deltans producing the oil nor go gree oo! There will be future problem and the biggest is diversity since you already spotted it as a problem of Nigeria.

I never said igbos are not educated, I was only saying yoruba will not suffer as people think instead hausas will SUFFER, and Igbos should be WORRIED. These were what I said. Yes, I am smart...

I choose my words carefully becos I know igbos are learned and don't think they will suffer but instead should be worried of the over 7 million igbos coming home. Do you even know how many are unemployed or not skilled now? Ask China today, population inflation is their biggest cause for worry today. If you look at the good side, also check the advert effect. Na only one way you dey think. That is not wise and too childish. Not professional at all. Some things are easy on paper.

Read and understand my points bro!

When I said they (yoruba people) won't suffer much becos they are learned, I was talking about them (what they can do) and not comparing tribes. They being learned has nothing to do with igbo, I'm just say they should be skilled enuff to manage themselves, plus other tribes have helped them developed their place, so they will easily build on that.

pazienza:
Where did you get the hunger and crime rate ish from?

I'm really struggling not to insult you, infact, I'm only letting you be because you are an Igbanke man.

7 million people means big market, that would need to be serviced. It can only mean boom in all business in the Eastern economy. It's not a liability, considering that these returnees are not illiterates with nothing to bring in terms of human resourcefulness.

Biafra would be Ok.

By the way, diversity has never been a strength, don't let any one fool you. There was a reason the Biblical God had to introduce different tongues amongst the tower of Babel builders, diversity is a disadvantage.

Most great nations on Earth are highly homogeneous. Japan, Germany, China( over 80% han Chinese), USA is built around a strong anglo saxon culture and Christian ideals.

Don't let anyone deceive you.

Yes, you said it correctly, I'm an Ikah man and I'm proud. If it's by culture, food, traditional attire, style of music or even language I'm closer to igbos than any other tribe.

I will let you be becos you didn't insult me, so I will replicate the respect.

Our strength is in our diversity is deeper than what you know Bro. Of cos, you only see the bad part, so I will leave it at that. All the great nations you mentioned, did you see any African country there?

Look Bro, blacks have issues and it starts with our mentality. The only African countries that seems like abroad are ran by white people. South Africa, Egypt, Morocco etc. Name one black country that is doing well economically or can maintain half cleanliness as any white nation? Of cos biafra will be okay! I'm not excepting too much becos biafra will still have different ethnic groups and languages too, so it has countered all your points against diversity.

We have a problem in this part of the world and biafra will be okay. For sure, if referendum comes my people will be biafrans but doesn't stop me from having dual nationality abi? What I'm just saying is that biafra will take time. There is little placed on ground to convince me that we are ready. Agbor is the biggest town in Ikah but what do we have there? How many industries?

Bro, numbers have never been an economical advantage in the long run and that is why places like China pay their citizens to have only one child.

The way you talked about the 7 million coming together makes life look so easy.

Remember what kanu said? Described Nigeria as a zoo and if you look at it, you can take an animal out of a zoo but can't remove the zoo in that animal. #food for thought.

I don't even trust Asari Dokubo at all! In a few years he will want his own country (Niger delta), plus there will be a fresh breed of Muslims in biafra becos he has become one. What you are running from in Nigeria will spring up there becos biafra will still be diversified. Igbo, delta, rivers, benue, cross- rivers, Akwa ibom and probably Edo (who is part of Niger delta). If referendum comes, some will decide whom to stay with such as edo people. However, even without them, we are looking at 6 states making up biafra plus 7 igbo states.

Will there still not be diversity? Different tongues? Yet we claim biafra will be beta? Well!!

Blizzy9ja:
Whoever believes that shit is a very big foolish person... Our difference and our problem lies in our diversity...

Obviously, that is why biafra will be problem free with igbos, Niger delta, benue, efik, ibibio (in all their diversities) coming together as one.

Of course there are villages in the igboland that don't do things together or inter-marry especially in Ngor Okpala in Imo state. Some part of Imo do not marry Abia, else death will be the repercussion. #FACT

You are correct, our problem is in our diversity and only a fool thinks they can make a country.

Think before you talk, it's such a simple thing to do and it's even free.

PenisCaP:
Watch ur mouth i dnt want to insult u..
But be guided.
So yoruba is heaven where there is no crime abi?

All this cutting of heads and rituals we hear in yorubaland is not crime abi?.

Watch ur tongue.. before i insult ir generation.
U can make ur comments without insulting my people. Thank u.

Really? What did I say that is an insult to your people? Your problem is understanding English. Did I say yoruba land is heaven? My point is biafra will not become heaven as well contrary to how people make it seems. Even when Israel left Egypt they suffered for 40yrs before they started building which took them hundreds of years to be here they are today.

Ever heard that Rome wasn't built in a day? Yes, that's true! It took 14,000 years for Rome to be where they are today. You guys like to say trash without any reason point. OK check your stupid post, what point did you make now? So you think biafra will turn around in 10yrs? Except you are not in Africa, besides these things take time.

Nigeria is just fulfilling the scriptures that says there will be war and rumours of war, then the end shall come. Time is even running out for the world, let alone biafra.

What I'm saying is kanu and team should make provision before asking millions to move to the east. Naturally, inflation of population can lead to lack of food, jobs etc. In turn, that can lead to increase in crime rate as we experience in Nigeria today. This can happen to any country but you are so blind with biafra.

The difference with yoruba is that they are not relocating, instead they will have decrease in population which will be a good thing for planning and economic balance will be easy. Didn't I say hausa would also suffer? Lastly I said if we divide as a country, one way of the other we will all suffer it as our strength is in our diversity? Didn't you idiot read that?

My generation? Over what? This tread? Bro, make God punish you. I dey fear you? Open your filty mouth and talk naa. I sound like someone who is dull to you?

Ewu Gambia!


See my original post below........ how did I insult your people?


I'm not yoruba but I doubt so Bro. They are learned and Lagos will be there capital. Enuf funds coming in oo, plus Lagos now has crude oil too.

Let's be informed. Na hausas dey actually fear but igbos are blinded with sentiments they themselves should be worried. There will be hunger ooo, lack of job and high crime rate if over 7 million igbos relocate home. Where will many start from? What will they do? Farming?

Everybody will suffer it one way of the other becos our strength is in our diversity.


I said igbo should be worried too and started my reason without insulting words. Do you know what over 7 million people moving back to the east is? Has kanu put infrastructures in place?

I'm not yoruba but I doubt so Bro. They are learned and Lagos will be there capital. Enuf funds coming in oo, plus Lagos no has crude oil too.

Very wrong using the picture of kids suffering for mockery.

Isn't it clear only foolish jobless nairaland ipobs follow cownu without thinking properly and feeding on his lies like it is abacha.

Take away: Before you talk about what Hausa people have done to us let us first talk of what we have done to ourselves.

Finally, learned igbo people who understand what good life is all about have started speaking. These people stay in the US and they know what they enjoy there.

This is the same question I have been asking since on different trends. The igbos are their own problem. What state can u compare in terms of development to Lagos, Calabar who generate their own funds and develop infrastructure wise. YOU DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FOR EVERYTHING.

Calabar has obudu cattle ranch, calabar festival etc and they are generating incomes through sponsorship and all that.

Look at ordinary Akwa Ibom today, they have done something to make themself relevant. Apart from their Christmas Carol which is televised worldwide, they built a massive international stadium that takes Nigeria to the state every time eagles have a home game and that brings in funds too as the FA will pay and advert, sponsorship etc. It's putting the state on the international sense.

I don't wanna talk of Lagos because that one Na baba. The government here seems to be getting it right despite the pollution.

What has igbo governors done? Which state can actually say we have been transformed?

I love what that man said.........answering biafra will not wipe out the Nigerians in any born Nigerian. Kanu is just being selfish and foolish. How can u accommodate over 7million biafrans? There will be hunger, theft (crime rate will increase) including corruption that is already in the blood of every Nigerian and there will be lack of jobs.

Imagine people who are used to cities, going back to the village to do what? Farm? I have spoken with my friends who are igbos, they said they are not moving anywhere.

I gave an igbo woman a lift today from church and I jokingly asked her when she's moving to see her reaction. You don't wanna hear what she said. Not all igbos are stupid. Go to village and do what? What provision has kanu placed on ground? Everything Nigeria have today whether in the north or west belong to them also as Nigerians but one idiot wants to take people to villages.

Personally, me nor dey move and I haven't met any reasonable person say otherwise. The parameters have to be set first before asking them to move and dump them in the east to suffer. You think it's easy to build a Nation? It takes years ooo!

Then after a while, Asare Dokubo will say Niger delta want to control their own space. Let's be wise!

NairalandHowTo:
You can say what you want but we all know the past has gone military rule is the thing of the past.

Uninterrupted democracy started 1999 with a Yoruba man Obasanjo spending 8 years then he handed over to Yar'adua who suddenly died b4 the end of his first tenure (nobody plans death).

After Gej completed Yar'adu's tenure, OBJ went to beg northern politician to allow Gej 4 a one term deal. Gej broke that promise and recontest. Dax the reason OBJ decided to withdraw his support 4 GEJ.

Therefore Nigerian uninterrupted democracy is 18 years old. With southerners having 13 to 14 years out it.

OBJ 8 and Gej 5 to 6 years. The north only had 4 years now.

The north has to get it remaining years. Thus all this north - south zoning adopted by PDP wasn't constitutional. Since it is not in the constitution Osinbanjo can contest 2019 if PMB wont but we won't support him.

If u want our support den allow us till 2023.

Again even with the calculation u made above, it is still northern turn. 55 - 26 = 29 for the south. After Buhari tenure it will be 28, still 1 year is hanging.

Finally: Don't drag me into derogatory statements because it is something am good at and if I start it u won't like it.

Hahahahaha, I can't laff. I already know your type and you can go on. If I like I will answer you but trully I have seen you through your words that you don't think like a learned person.

In all this electoral nonsense, I'm a minority in Nigeria (my state) and I don't give a shit abt power but just stating that I don't vote based on tribe but who I believe is the best but it remains for the problem to justify the trust.

So we should wait till 2023 for a particular tribe to rule? No wonder igbos said they want to go. I don't have a problem with who rules till Jesus returns but my concern is that you don't hand precious stones or pearls to someone that will abuse it.

The foundation of destruction or stagnancy of this country was built by the north.

NairalandHowTo:
I don't care about u, I care about the majority. It is a game of numbers.

Which Yoruba vote? It was 60% Buhari and 40% Jonathan. The details are there u can search them. Despite the GEJ failure almost half of the Yoruba voted 4 him. The whole votes of the Yoruba is not more than Kano vote.

As far as I am concern, the north most get it fair share of the presidency, after then a Southerner should rule. Anything beyond this I won't support it.

North must have fair share of presidency? for how long? Did u say fair?

Hausas have ruled for 26yrs now since 1960, both military and civilian.

Obviously talking to u na waste of time. I see no difference BTW u and the tomato or nama raring aboki.

Funny enough, u started out like someone with a sound intellectual capacity but soon after, your true self show. Lol aboki na aboki even if him get PHD.

Enjoy your ignorance.

NairalandHowTo:
True or false. Majority of you (99%) vote Jonathan base on sentiment and that's a fact. The election result show it

I don't care about majority, I speak for myself, just as you also spoke for yourself as a sentimentalist. I don't care what my tribe people do, I do what I consider the best.

Besides, how many state in the SW did APC loose? Almost all went to buhari. It was only the east and SS that wanted GEJ back and their reason is clear. Why didn't I follow my SS people vote that uncle goodluck? I don't care about majority because I don't follow the crowd contrary to what you confirmed of yourself.

chakula:
The detest that exist between Yorubas and Igbos these days is taking a new dimension possibly the disintegration of this country will take effect from south. Kanu is no longer respect the clerics and men of God particularly Yorubas.

I didn't bother check any video but if he trully said so, then he is the fool. I'm not yoruba but a Christian. If you question all yoruba pastors then you question GOD for calling the genuine ones and of cos there are false prophet everywhere (all tribes). That disrespectful and insultive statement would include baba Adeboye, bishop Oyedepo, etc. Anyways, the bible says I will bless who blesses you and curse who does like wise.

This kanu is trully looking for war so that he can have international audience and demand disintegration by force; obviously he is using every tactics. Now he feels he has caused the north to forcefully accept his dis-intergration plans which by asking the igbos to leave the north and called their own people to return, so he wants to face the west too (people that are not violence in nature), so that they will also ask igbos to leave west and call westerners out of the east, then biafra will systematically assemble.

Well, kanu should know if he involves God in what he is doing then he will face it. This man should know that his biafra plans can be corrupted by the anointing, so he should leave men of God out of it, after all they haven't interfered in his biafra demands.

This young man should be guided ooo but of cos he is trying to force something. I wonder who made him a Jew!

NairalandHowTo:
It is now u realized its better 4 the best man to rule when clearly u people are voting base on sentiment.

There is no time in history the north 90% vote for it candidate until 2015 when it becomes with tired with Jonathan lack of care 2 Boko Haram.

What of the south? I can say is it without doubt u pple vote 4 Jonathan because he is southern Christian in 2011 DAT power has leave the north.

What is the competency of GEj that u vote him? ist inviting Beyonce with million of dollars to his governotorial inauguration or wat?

Let me silence you once and for all...... my blood brother voted buhari and half of my office colleagues voted buhari too. I personally didn't vote becos I moved from where I registered but I would have voted buhari too. Why?? Becos the corruption under GEJ was so bad that he was sharing dollars during campaigns.

However, buhari has failed and has made all the guys I know to be laughed at and turned into a laughing stock. Buhari disappointed me as I expected so much and I have ran out of excuse for him. The man hasn't done JARK and it's going to 3 yrs now.

A colleague of mine (a yoruba) went to facebook and apologized openly to all his friend that he voted buhari and campaigned for him. Femi was like a campaign manager but baba fall our hand. Shame!! I expected so much from this government, especially that it as APC, looking at antecedent in Lagos.

Mind you, I do not vote based on sentiment but you owned up to it and it's a shame. If it was by tribe, I will vote GEJ as I am delta Ibo and he is also delta. I still maintain that GEJ failed and showed us the path to recession before baba urshered us in.

I'm not like you or how the average northerner think when it comes to these things. GEJ lost Lagos becos the eyes of everyone who is sound became open to their ccorrupt practice.

NairalandHowTo:
Who are more stupid than you people? No one.

You promise to cripple the economy NDA because a northerner is the president and he has block ways of theft.

Nobody said PYO won't be allowed to run 2019 but the fact is we won't vote 4 him and that is Democracy.

Where are you when Asari Dokubo said northerners should leave the south? Isn't this stupid also?

Show us the threat in what the north said? Are they calling 4 violence? Did they promise to attack any 1 who refuse to leave? Aren't you people stupid to lie of wat the group never said?

Who is more stupid than KANU DAT said we want war not referendum?

Where are u wen KANU said Hausa and Yoruba should be killed ? Aren't this stupid.

Purely you pole are worst than pigs because cow has more advantage

I would have answered you since but this stupid Nairaland clown suspended me. Anyways, it worked as blessing in disguise becos your post wasn't worth rushing to reply.

The moment you said this I just gave up on you and your intellectual approach which was spot on has been dented.........

Nobody said PYO won't be allowed to run 2019 but the fact is we won't vote 4 him and that is Democracy...........

I couldn't think of a more stupid people who vote on sentiment and nothing else. No wonder Nigeria is how it is without development. Democracy is actually supposed to make us beta by letting the best man win. Well done.

FriendNG:
@Bolded Colored above: Northerners are not stupid rather you Southerners are

I disagree with you but I won't argue. It's so so glaring that Nigeria is how it is today becos of your approach and ways of thinking.

So for example...... we have been hearing things like osibanjo won't be allowed back in 2019, that it has to be a northerner.

I hear your people say if buhari dies there will be unrest. Isn't that stupid? Na person wan kill am? I see boko haram bombing people for no meaningful reason. Aren't you people stupid? Bro, hausa and blood shed aren't too far away. Una get sense?

Now, igbo said they won't to leave which I'm against though even as a delta ibo origin, but why arewa youth still want to take laws in their hands with their ultimatum. Are they government? Everything for the north na gragra. No difference with a cow jare.

This fools calling for over 7 millions Igbos to come home. Can the east accommodate everyone?

There will be hunger and starvation o!

They said they wanted biafra, this is an easy route and they shouldn't forget to leave Lagos too. Me dey eye one igbo man house for Lekki phase one ooo!

Joking apart, I just hope all Nigeria stop this nonsense and let's talk. Forget about referendum and let's discuss true federalism. I love Nigerians, only that hausas are just different.

DerideGull:
Ndigbo can fight wars over and over again until the hell freezes over. I do not know about your intellectual pedigree but it is said that no country survives two civil wars. War or no war, the survival of Nigeria is slim and none. As for every ethnic group suspicious of Igbo remains their cup of tea. Ndigbo do not give a hoot about other ethnics' paranoia or suspicion.

You see now? This post lacks intellect.

1. No normal human being wants war. God forbid it!

Do you know what sporadic shooting is? Picture it in your mind!

....deserted streets with only sound of gunshots
..... innocent people die from gun wound and explosives.
.....starvation
......trauma/mental torture

During war, soldiers don't defend their people or country o, they only fight to stay alive, so the civilians are on their own. Obviously, they didn't tell you the story from the last experience.

Secondly, saying Ndigbo do not give me hoot about other ethnic group is a statement of arrogance but you and I know biafra is not all about the igbos. Niger delta and port-harcourt (crude oil) will provide 99% of income. You are not learned my friend!

I'm from anioma and I have heard the story of how those Nigerian soldiers pass through our place to the east and everybody chant one-Nigeria just to stay alive.

For hours what they hear is heavy artillery (gunshots) and everyone will lay down (face down) inside house o, just to avoid flying bullets. You don see war for eye?

I reject it in Jesus name!


According to news, the northern youths have given igbos 3 months ultimatum to leave the north and asked their own people to return home. This ultimatum is over by 1 OCT, Nigeria's independence.

Obviously, the igbos are beating drum of war and their own people will abandon their properties and business again. Can the east accommodate up to 7 million igbo returnee? Will hunger and starvation not strike? Will the Nigerian troop not come after them to cease control just like in the first war?

This IPOB is supposing to be a political negotiating tool on behalf of the igbos but it's been mis-managed and will blow up in their faces soon. Those in glass houses don't throw stones, so let's mind what we ask for. Na look me just dey look (the north and east) from Lagos. Igbos need a better negotiator.

I still support true federalism and that's something they are supposed to ask for. You think these useless politicians will give up on Niger delta oil just like that? Biafra should dream on. Forget referendum, It won't happen without a fight o!

It's supposed to be........ give us biafra or if we must stay, let every state manage what they have. Negotiate better.

Ikenna0b:
Another "igbo" on NL whose topics are all anti igbo

After your done pretending to be Igbo, move as we move forward away from this shithole called Niggeria.

I respect your view but it sounds like that of my little niece. Why in your wildest dreams would you think ALL igbos wants biafra? Hence, those who have contrary view ARE PRETENDING TO BE IGBO according to you.

I know a few guys who aren't keen to leave. My colleague (uche), a confirmed igbo guy in the offix said if it happens he will get dual nationality of Nigeria and biafra becos he was born in mushin (Lagos). Not everybody think the kanu way, does it make them less igbo? I'm from anioma and I don't support this biafra talk.

The question I asked is, why is it that under goodluck nobody wants biafra? So once a southerner gains power again, all these talk will disappear ba? Look, me nor dey waste my time!!

Many people don't think, they just follow crowd.

Saudi Arabia accusing another country.of sponsoring terrorism. Wonders shall never end.

But for real these things are sponsored by some big guys, oil money. Check out the weapon these terror groups has and the intelligence they gather. Al-jezera is an islamic network and what stops them from hating infidels? Abi isn't that what their Koran teaches?

Both Qatar and the useless Saudi, all of them are terrorists. So Saudi knew what we didn't know all these while abi? Na now dem wan talk. Rubbish!!
