What does it benefit these idiots to be writing shit about Biafra and Nnamdi Kanu just for little peanuts from their sponsors.
I value My freedom more than anything in the world.
Nnamdi Kanu has opened our eyes and all these nonsense articles they write everyday can't change anything.
NL are too quick to copy things against Biafra from other sites but won't copy articles meant to educate not just only Biafrans, but Oduas and Arewas as well from Radio Biafra and other news outlets.
The media war has started and we are prepared for it, no amount of shit from the zoo media can stop us.
This idiot writing this article is a good for nothing idiot, he thinks those politicians will feed him forever?

Atr you minding the nematode? If he is so confident of November 18, why demonising kanu or ipob? I'd it the same "Touts" his party will meet and beg for votes? Nobody is stopping him from voting he should go and vote.

Maduawuchukwu:
You are blowing hot air. Igbo people are not getting our due in Nigeria which is a dysfunctional state but we have to first create a viable export economy before we think of seceding or else we are going to regret it. If we secede today what will we export to keep us going for at least the first 5 years? That is why we are screaming restructuring so that we will first develop our own independent economy before we have an independent state.

Has it worked? Has your restructuring agenda worked?

What kanu and IPOB are asking for is a SIMPLE REFERENDUM, is that too much to ask for? The outcome of the referendum determine if there will be a biafra or not?

Chineke! Onye mere gi ihe a? I wish my hot air blows off the spell controlling you.

AuthorEjoorking:
why would the ibo elite support KANU when every one of them knows only about his or her family. talking about the result of eastern governors meeting, no right thinking governor will come out openly to support the agitation hence their comfortable with the level of their family level in life. Of course they can afford training their children abroad, go for medical check up abroad and live comfortable with the money nigeria polity have place in their palms. the traditional rulers of ibos are all been paid by the government of nigeria, how will they in turn bite the fi
nger that feed them. i laugh when ever i hear about biafra because many ibo men want to be worship by others just because he has money more than the other. why will then IBO elite openly support kanu agitation hence they know they will loose that position in government. NRI rulers rejected kanu but people came out and supported him. river state government rejected him but people of rivers came out in mass and supported him. like wise in every other places he had gone to.
I therefore say that he must not wait for the support of IBO elites if really he wants to achieve his aim.

The elites will soon answer their query. IPOB is bigger than them and their shady wealth.

Nigga, please format your mess of a response well so I don't have to edit your own posts for you. See the mugu calling someone an illiterate. Chei! Anyway, na internet we dey. Everybody is a legend in their own mind.
So the failures of the Nigerian state will suddenly be relegated in the bin of history when you have your Biafran paradise, abi? Corruption, nepotism, administrative incompetence, crime etc is a uniquely Nigerian thing, abi? It will never exist in your Biafran utopia, shey? Mugu. Catalans and Scottish people want independence from their unions. They also happen to be the most productive regions in their political unions who seek complete autonomy as a way to fully exploit this. You have not even tackled the massive capital flight and brain drain from your region and you're there fantasizing about your Biafran paradise.

And you think my grouse with Ipob touts is about their agitations. On the contrary, I have always sympathized with the position of independence from this union and I deplore Nigeria's current structure. What I rail against is the fantasies your charlatan supreme lord, Kanu, has lead many of his gullible followers to believe and the crude, unruly, insolent, chaotic conduct of many of his devotees. You touts can never be allowed to be the sole voice of Igbos.

E-diot.

When you were busy bedding your concubines and pushing drugs, kanu was busy giving your vulture politicians sleepless nights.

Where were you when fulani herdsmen were attacking your people?

Where were you when the govt was deliberately marginalizing your people (ma oburu na ibu onye Igbo na eziokwu)?

Now someone has decided to fight for the liberation of his people and you are here weighing his capability. What have you done for your people?

E-diot.

Maduawuchukwu:
Kanu was a useful Idiot who ensured that Buhari did not get away with his 97-5% ideology about governance but he has since lost his usefulness and is only an Idiot nw. People are more interested in how Anambra can be kept on the developmental pedestal it is on and not about Biafran restoration for now. We should first get Anambra which is the Igbo economic engine room working at full capacity before seccesion.

Obu gi bu useful idiot.....

It is your type that benefits from the proceeds of a failed state like Nigeria.

Anambra first right? Because other states are not viable enough? Ke ihe iche na-ibu?

Thank God Anambra does not have backward and slavish thinkers like you. You will wait for a thousand years for
- a new Niger bridge to be constructed
- a port in the East to become fully functional
- an international airport to be properly funded and maintained
- low interest rate loans to be given for the young and aspiring business minded ones.
- good accessible major roads
- constant electricity (alaoji, geometric power plants project not been frustrated)

All part of biafra must be attended to and properly addressed. Anambra has not achieved one tenth of it's potential so I don't know what you are boasting about.

Propaganda war..... Punch news you came late....Ipob media is ahead of you.

Good morning ohaneze
Good morning SE/SS Governors
Good morning Yoruba (a.k.a we Sabi am pass)
Good morning unity beggars

Hope you slept well?

MY RESEARCH WORK ON BIAFRA!!!
BETWEEN OJUKWU AND NNAMDI KANU

On May 30, 1967, following a chain of events in Nigeria, and following weeks of serious consultations between Ojukwu who was the Military Governor of the then Eastern Region and a cross section of the people, Ojukwu made that historic announcement which proclaimed the sovereign state of Biafra.
The day he made that proclamation, the hall at Enugu was filled to capacity. The finest brains from this part of the country were there. Leaders of thought, Traditional Rulers, soldiers, members of the academia, etc.
In his opening speech that day, Ojukwu said...
"YOU, THE PEOPLE OF EASTERN NIGERIA...
After outlining several powerful preambles, he said...
HAVING MANDATED ME TO PROCLAIM ON YOUR BEHALF AND IN YOUR NAME THE EASTERN NIGERIA TO BE A SOVEREIGN STATE,
NOW THEREFORE, I LT. COL CHUKWUEMEKA ODUMEGWU OJUKWU, MILITARY GOVERNOR OF EASTERN NIGERIA, PURSUANT TO THE AUTHORITY AND ABOVE RECITALS DO HEREBY SOLEMNLY PROCLAIM....
Ojukwu was a wise man. He studied history at Oxford. He understood the psychology of the Igbos and our neighbors. He knew he couldn't act alone. He knew he needed the support of the people.
When that announcement was made, there was an explosion of joy across the entire Eastern Nigeria.
Our finest brains were fully with him. Sir Louis Mbanefo, the first Igbo lawyer accepted to serve as Chief Justice of Biafra. Others like Achebe, Okigbo, etc were there.
Ojukwu understood that Biafra wasn't an Igbo thing. It was never. He brought in an Efik man as his Second in Command. His name was General Philip Effiong. The Secretary to the Government of Biafra was also Efik. It was an Eastern Nigerian agenda. Even a Yoruba officer, Tunji Banjo abandoned his own people and fought for Biafra.
That is the power of ideas supported by popular acclaim.
Our people were happy. We were enthusiastic. The people had spoken through their leader.
In January 1970 when the war ended, Ojukwu had fled to the Ivory Coast. He handed over to Effiong. When there was more sense continuing with the war, Effiong didn't just make an announcement on his own. He consulted our people. Even in the heat of an excruciating war, Effiong never acted alone.
In his last speech to the Biafran people, Effiong said...
FELLOW COUNTRYMEN AND WOMEN, AS YOU ALL KNOW, I WAS ASKED TO BE THE OFFICER ADMINISTERING THIS REPUBLIC ON JANUARY 10,1970...
I HAVE HAD EXTENSIVE CONSULTATIONS WITH THE LEADERS OF OUR COMMUNITIES BOTH MILITARY AND CIVIL, AND I AM NOW ENCOURAGED AND HASTEN TO MAKE THIS STATEMENT TO YOU...BY THE MANDATE OF THE ARMED FORCES AND THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY.
He spoke and spoke. Commending our people for the resilience during the war but stated that it was time to end it.
He set up a committee to negotiate with the Nigerian government. That committee was to be led by Chief Justice Mbanefo, Prof Eni Njoku, Chief Bassey and Chief Aguma . Bassey was from Cross River and Aguma, from Rivers.
He then set up a committee of eminent persons to ADVISE HIM on the issues that will arise. That committee had people from across the entire Eastern Nigeria, from the military and outside. There were Igbos, Efiks, Ijaws, etc. They were men of honor and substance.
I have taken the pains to present this preamble so that our people can compare and contrast between the scenarios we had and what we have now.
All we hear and see today are unilateral proclamations. No consultation with anybody. This young man simply wakes up and makes far reaching proclamations. In doing this, he is urged on mainly by a coterie of street urchins and a mob followership, most of whom were not born when we fought the first war.
The latest in this madness is the proclamation that Igbos will not vote in the 2019 elections, starting with Anambra this November. He didn't ask the people of Anambra what they wanted. He just woke up and made an order and expects that Igbos are zombies. We shall see.
Education is very important. If this guy had the benefit a proper education, he would have known why indirect rule failed in Igboland but succeeded in other parts of the country. When indirect rule failed, the colonial leaders introduced the Warrant Chiefs who were Lords. The entire arrangement ended in a fiasco.
Igbos are by their nature, republicans and act after detailed analysis and wide spread consultations. No one can order the Igbo people around according to his own whims and caprices. Even if what you ask of them is right, the mere fact that you woke up to say it without asking them will make them resist it.
Igbos don't have powerful kings and rulers. Igbos don't by tradition prostrate before anybody. We act by a unity of purpose.
Tell me one decent and notable Igboman who is with this guy in this his movement.
Will he fight the war alone?
What does he think secession is? A cartoon film?
The original Biafra was not an Igbo thing entirely. While Igbos were in the majority, there were others too. Today, what we have is a purely designed Igbo agitation. This is not the Biafra that Ojukwu had in mind. The other people feel uncomfortable with it and have said no.
Finally, let me ask Kanu one question. If by his imperial order, Igbos refuse to vote in 2019, what of those Igbos who were elected in a state like Lagos?
Two Igbos are in the House of Reps representing two constituencies in Lagos State. One Igbo guy is in the Lagos State House of Assembly.
What becomes of them?
Those that know him should tell him to go and sleep over this his thing. He is a young man and should ask questions and consult his people before coming out to speak.
All through history, no single individual has spoken for the Igbos except the people ask him to, or he will be alone in the market place.
Finally, I will advise Kanu to go and read ACHEBE's books, THINGS FALL APART AND ARROW OF GOD. They were written by Chinua Achebe, one of the finest Igbo brains who took active part in the war.
In those two books, the republican nature of the Igbo man were in full display. The emphasis we place on unity and consultation. All decisions must be collectively reached for it to have efficacy.
In THINGS FALL APART, when Okonkwo got too powerful and decided to run a one man show, he ended up committing suicide and his body was buried by strangers in the evil forest. The people abandoned him. It didn't matter that he was the most popular and most powerful man in the land who had brought them honor severally.
Obierika, Okonkwo's best friend who was a more deeper man said to the white man...THIS WAS THE GREATEST MAN IN UMUOFIA, YOU DROVE HIM TO KILL HIMSELF AND NOW, HE WILL BE BURIED LIKE A DOG.
IN ARROW OF GOD, Ezeulu misunderstood that the allegiance the people gave to him was by virtue of his office as the Priest of Ulu, their deity. When he became too powerful and started toying with the people, the people arose against both him and the deity. The rest was history. Even while he reigned as Ezeulu, he was constantly questioned and harassed by some men like the rambunctious Nwaka.
Please tell Nnamdi Kanu to cultivate the habit of reading. WComr. Okonkwo Ifeanyi Innocent writes from Ekwulobia, with one hand and his Bible in the other hand. Kachifooonu umunnem!!!

https://drbiggie./2017/07/19/ojukwus-biafra-vs-nnamdi-kanus-biafrau-spot-the-difference/

I wonder if Okonkwo Ifeanyi the writer of this junk is more intelligent and well read than kanu. The OP himself is trying to prop up another Anambra vs Abia thread. It's a shame. Igbo di otu/ofu/nge for Christ sake.

Nnamdi Azikiwe (civilian head of state)- Anambra
Aguiyi Ironsi (Military head of state) - Abia

Emeka Ojukwu (Eastern region Governor) - Anambra
Michael Okpara (Premier Eastern region) - Abia

Prof. Kenneth Dike (UI first black VC) - Anambra
Prof. Eni Njoku (UNILAG and UNN first black VC) - Abia

Alex Ekwueme - Civilian VP - Anambra
Ebitu Ukiwe - Military VP - Abia

Onitsha Commercial centre - Anambra
Aba Commercial centre - Abia

Nri Igbo cultural history - Anambra
Aro Igbo cultural history - Abia

N500 Igbo portrait - zik - Anambra
N10 Igbo portrait - ALVAN IKOKU- Abia

OP are you satisfied? No be only Anambra get people. Respect is reciprocal. IMO, ENUGU, EBONYI and other Igbo communities have great notable people, they are too much to mention.

Kanu is educated and exposed. He knows how politicians think. And he is winning. Let this man be. Ojukwu used military aggression to pursue the agenda. This is civilian era, and kanu is using political aggression to pursue the agenda of biafra. We all stood by ojukwu not because he was from anambra, but because he had the qualities. Stop downplaying others. Are you the one to lead in the struggle?

IGBO DI OTU......

Be careful.

blaqoracle:
and you are proud you kingless?

Yes, we are. Our leaders are never rulers. We have a leadership structure that isnt controlled by one man who is king. Got it? I won't blame you if you don't.

kn23h:
Have you taken yours?

*I take that as a no*

Pls try and do so, your irrationality is becoming obvious.

Thank me later.

kn23h:
Even if na Obingo and his family vote, him go still win.

Have you taken your pills today?

Obi of Onitsha may you live long

However, the will of the people stands.

No election is no election

All I can as regards this news is-

1. Ohaneze GOOD MORNING
2. SE And SS Governors GOOD MORNING
3. Yoruba ("na we Sabi pass" GOOD MORNING
4. All southern unity beggars GOOD MORNING

I hope you all slept well....?

Anambra politicians using traditional leaders to tackle kanu..... Shameless people.

What offense again did kanu commit? He didn't meet eze nri before entering the sacred forest. Did he not meet his representative as customs permit? What is the sueing for?

couragemurphy:
Nri community in Aniocha Local Government Area of Anambra has threatened to sue Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), for alleged taboo in Nri culture. . Chief Ifeanyi Onyesoh, the Personal Assistant to Eze Obidiegwu Onyesoh, the traditional ruler of Nri community, announced the plan to journalists in Awka on Thursday.

He said the people were angry over Kanu’s alleged misconduct. Onyesoh said Kanu with his wife, Uchechi, and supporters visited the palace of Eze Nri on July 19 and a shrine against the tradition of the people. He noted Nri ancient Kingdom is the cradle of Igbo civilisation, whose culture is revered in the five southeast states of Abia, Ebonyi, Enugu, Imo, Anambra as well as Igbo communities in Delta and Rivers. Onyesoh said on July 18, a day before Kanu’s visit, 12 young people came to the palace of Eze Nri requesting for an appointment with the traditional ruler for Kanu. “I was the person that received them and so I told them to go and come back with a written letter so that they will get official reply from the palace since the delegation looked unusual, in that there was no titled person among them. “At this point they all left and what we saw the next day was Kanu visiting Nri community with a huge crowd of his supporters. He (Kanu) went straight to the house of one Chief Shadrack Mbanefo, a subject to the traditional ruler of Nri. “The feelers we later got, was that the said Mbanefo claimed he handed over the `Offo Nri ’, (symbol of royalty) to Kanu, and even allowed Kanu to visit the historic “Ohianwehi forest” revered as “forest of life” by Igbo tradition. “This forest is believed to be the place the first burnt offering was offered by the Jewish Igbo ancestors when they migrated from Israel more than 2,000 years ago,’’ he said. Onyesoh said Nri people considered Kanu’s conduct as a taboo because no high profile visitor entered the community without first visiting the traditional ruler let alone a sacred place without the knowledge of the ruler. He expressed regret that Kanu and his supporters after visiting Mbanefo returned to the entrance gate of the palace and tried to force it open. “It was this unruly conduct that made the traditional ruler to telephone the security agents who responded promptly and dispersed Kanu and his supporters.’’

Onyesoh said the people regarded Kanu’s action as an affront on their values and so resolved not to sweep the matter under the carpet. “It is a taboo in Nri and equally against the Anambra State Traditional Rulers’ Council Law for a high profile visitor to visit a community without first paying homage to the traditional ruler.

“The people of Nri and her traditional ruler are not against Nnamdi Kanu and his agitation/aspiration but what we cannot take is for Kanu to come and mess up the Nri culture and tradition under whatever motive. “The community will drag him to customary court to ensure that nobody else gives such insult to the community and its heritage,’’ he said. Reminded that Kanu visited Nri to receive `Offo Nri title’ like the late Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu and MASSOB leader Chief Ralph Uwazuruike both Biafra agitators, Onyesoh said “if Kanu wants a title, Eze Nri is not aware of such aspiration. “If Kanu indeed met with anybody and claimed he was given `Offo Nri’, it means he is seeking the title through the back door and for the title he claimed was given to him by `Adama’ (Mbanefo ), a servant to Eze Nri, is a nullity.

“My advice to Kanu is for him to first step up actions to amend his ways to synchronise with the values and culture of Igbo people which he is stampeding in the name of agitation. “Nri is the ancestral home of all Igbo people and for him to visit Nri in the manner he did means he has no knowledge of Igbo tradition and culture. ‘’So, he must first study Igbo tradition and culture and properly be advised before he misleads himself.’’

Just looking for every effort to discredit kanu. E no work.... If truly there was a problem, Why didn't the plaintiff meet kanu about it personally? Why broadcasting it?

Some anambarians are just too full of themselves.....Always want to be seen above others. It's unfortunate.

Oblang:
Ipob boycotting the election will only increase APC chance in anambra because as little as it may be, the APC supporters there will come out to vote and their vote will be counted....

Nonsense.....Apga will be so foolish to play with their incumbency. Whether there is election boycott or not, APGA still wins

TheCabal:
If them are serious make dem burn voters card....

Please burn it ... ease

Chai....If at all you attended a secondary school, then am sorry for your parents waste of cash on you

deomelo:
I guess Germans don't give a shitty about ipob villagers.


Ndo.

Chai....Biafra matter still dey pain you. I hope the German diplomacy will help soothen your pain....

OP is now prayerfully quoting Germany to see if it would discourage the biafran agitation. Lol....You no fit quote obj, gowon buhari abi Osinbajo again?

If you read the German ambassador well and you were able to catch his clause on Nigeria unity, you will know that the Nigeria you are in is finished.

TheCabal:
We own the goal post, the stadium and the ball.

We sing u dance. wen u dance haphazardly like Nnamdi , there is no song ... no tune...

When its silent u can only be in one place .... the graveyard of politics. . Decomposing like the carcas of our enemies past.

Long live the federal republic

"We own...." See the delusion that have been following you and your forbears since lugard and his girlfriend named this contraption Nigeria

Keep "own"ing o.....

Southern Kaduna are also Miscreants right?

Nematode.

blueseacat I dey wait you and your educated illiterates....lol

You call them Touts, but when election comes they become 'electorates'. You carry your party banner wooing and begging for their votes.

You call them Touts, yet you don't see them at your doorstep like almajiri or agbero begging for food or Kai kai. They work for their hard earned money. Neither kanu not even ipob as an organization feeds them. They feed themselves.

You call them Touts because they don't speak excellent English as you perceive, yet they speak excellent Igbo, Ibibio, Efik, etc. They speak their mother tongues excellently. Because one isnt excellent in English does not mean the person is foolish or illiterate.

You call them Touts yet they have successfully filed their case and mission at the United Nation's Assembly and ECOWAS Parliament. They weren't ignored or downplayed.

You called them Touts yet they are organised and have a large and active diasporic stretch, in over 70 nations worldwide.

You call them Touts yet they are the main reason why the word "restructuring" has become popular and canvassed upon by the prrsent political class. Even the toothless ohaneze has suddenly found voice among pressure groups in buhari dispensation.

Keep calling them Touts or Miscreants, the truth is they are far more organized and progressive than all your political parties join together.

blueseacats:
All I see are touts.

They are touts right? But when election comes they become 'electorates'. You go about begging for their votes.

You are a nematode.

He is busy gathering youth supporters for his next rally. The previous one was a total embarrassment.

Thank God for Nnamdi kanu, at least the BIAFRAN threat is forcing these corrupt politicians to make meaningful contributions to youth development.

I just hope this is not political showmanship like he did with IMSU scholarships way back?

As much as I don't support the two con men called Kanu and Uwazulike but I think you have a mental problem if one should consider what you have written below.

Of course you don't support kanu because he is not from your anambra.
