hahahaha, u don 4get d civil war or u no read abt it

Zinicc:
If you are truly Yoruba and you sound this way about IPOB, then the blessing of the almighty shall cover you family....
I am IPOB, I too don't like problems, but this time I will and must advocate for it if necessary since PMB looked at the IGBO nation and insert his 5fingers into our eyes with his comments which he proved by his lopsided appointments.

Since then I decided to always pay my tithe to IPOB youth and never to the church and shall do so till I die as Biafran or from the struggle...''but I have decded to die for something'

dnt rush, aboki soldiers wl soon kill u n ur useless kanu

moscow37d:
So recent Biafran protests have got me thinking, but I have been skeptical about airing my views because of perceived reactions.

DISCLAIMER: THESE ARE PERSONAL VIEWS, AND I, IN NO WAY CLAIM SUPREMACY OF KNOWLEDGE. FOR THE "GREYS" WHO THINK I AM TOO YOUNG TO SPEAK OF THIS SUBJECT, PLEASE PERMIT THIS CHILD TO SPEAK, THEN CORRECT HIM IF HE IS WRONG. FOR IGNORANCE CAN ONLY BE KNOWN IF IT IS AIRED, AND CAN ONLY BE CORRECTED IF IT IS KNOWN.

My points are as follows:

1. According to worldometers the median age of Nigeria is 17.8, hence an "average " did not experience the civil war.

2.This is the age statistics of Nigeria as at 2014 is as follows:
0-14 years: 43.2%
15-24 years: 19.3%
25-54 years: 30.5%
55-64 years: 3.9%
65 years and over: 3.1% (indexmundi.com)
In simpler statistics 93% of Nigerians were 5 and below in 1967.

3. According to Wikipedia, youth age range is between 18-35. Hence no present day Nigerian youth saw the civil war.

My first question: since over 90% percent of us neither saw the civil war nor participated actively, and our youth were born 10 years after the war, where is all the hate and agitation from?

4. The major driving force of Biafra is the igboland, but the Biafran map includes states like Cross river, Rivers, Delta, Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom state. This makes Biafra a culturally diverse state. I am igbo and i currently live in Akwa Ibom state, and we share no similarity in custom or language. How then can we live together as "one Biafra" when we can't tolerate the cultural diversity of Nigeria.

5. The Igbo tribe would become the majority tribe in Biafra, while the others who constitute the oil producing states hence the 'rich boys' would become minority. "How can the wealth most especially that from oil be distributed, when the majority is in power and the minority have the resource?"
So therefore, a time may come when the "minority" may decide to be free, because no man wants to live in another man's shadow.

6. Igbos are generally regarded as traders, and the lifeblood of their markets like Onitsha Main market and Ariaria international market is found in Lagos seaport where most of the goods come from. In Biafra, Lagos becomes another country hence tax and import/ export levies would increase drastically and logistics would become more difficult.
The other option is to trade via the Calabar Port, Delta Port or Rivers Port at Port Harcourt, and Onne. These ports are only found in the non-igbo states, hence another potential challenge.

7. What happens to Biafrans that have their livelihood rooted deeply in non biafran states? What happens to the igbos that constitute the majority of Alaba international market?
Would naturalization take place or would they liquidate assets and return to Biafra and start afresh?

8. Finally, the question of rulership. Who rules Biafra?
Currently, most Igbo people especially those in Abia and Imo state are dissatisfied with the condition of their states. They complain of bad government, massive looting, poor infrastructures etc, and they are currently ruled by Igbo governors.
If Biafra is formed who would rule then?
I believe it would be the same people that they complain of, and as you can see the cycle of pain and complaints would continue.

Problems are fixed by inward reflections not outward projections and blame shifting.

PLEASE BEAR WITH ME, FOR A CHILD WHO DID NOT SEE THE WAR HAS SPOKEN

U av spoken well,bros. It is beta for ibos to av a rethink

XBLadez:
You're as silly as your English

e dey pain u? No b me shot ur pple o, carry ur complain go meet IGP

basilo101:
Now, can you all see its not an online thing as u said? Also check out factories at the background, for the untravelled yorubas who say the east is not into manufacturig

oya mention d manufacturing companies in d east. Yeye Ibo man

Kyase:
Just one? Why na

dnt mind dem, they shld even thank their god. If na me b BUHARI ar for send Aboki police and Soldiers frm d North to d East to shoot dem all

They wl open their markets flooded wit fake products when hunger visit them. Y not their big men ask for d release of d criminal if they support biafra. Biafra is a scam, biafra is a fraud.

Whynotthetruth:
Common sense isn't common after all...Go back to see the picture again... That is celebration going on in Lagos not in East ...

kekakuz:
[size=20pt] I remember this day like it was yesterday
Thousands of biafraudians begged for their lives
On their knees surrendering to hunger and regret
How can I forget how ojukwu the Tiger of the landlocked region ran with a prostitute
Indeed
No Victor no vanquish
Except for a lot of dead easterners
[/size]

They wl die again

69MissedCalls:
"Nigeria" is not a country. it is just a nickname. these ones are celebrating because they succeeded in preventing Biafra from leaving with her oil.

Birniwa:
Ignorance is an incurable disease, I don't pray the OP to get well from this sickness. I pray he continues to live in this darkness and all his generation. I believe this is just an example of how the SOUTHERNERS think, so myopic in thoughts.

Gayigaskia:

benedictnsi:
God have already predestined you for greatness, his thoughts for you are for good to give you your expected ends...... Remember, he blesses the labour of our hands..... Thats why I said poverty is a choice..... Try and understand a post before you verbose iraanu

If God blesses d labour of our hands then everybody that works suppose to b rich. To become rich is only by His GRACE. Even if u work tirelessly without His grace, u labor in vain.
