Trillyonaire:
As a Rivers man who saw the events of 1967-1970 and who was old enough to understand them, this protest in Port Harcourt is a slap on true Rivers indigenes. and the memory of ALL the Rivers men and women who were slaughtered in the pogroms and ethnic cleansing committed during the civil war by the Biafran Army.

Let us remind ourselves of the TRUE facts and REAL reasons behind the secession and subsequent civil war. Ojukwu and his cohorts decided to secede from Nigeria because Gowon broke up the regions and created Rivers State among the 12 states he created. Remember the Aburi accord? Article 4 of that accord had to do with the breaking up of the regions. On the 27th of May, 1967, Gowon broke up the Regions, from the then Eastern Region and carved out Rivers, South-Eastern and East-Central states. 3 days later on 30th May, 1967 Ojukwu seceded citing the Aburi accord. ON ABURI WE STAND!! The rallying war cry of the day. How anyone who calls himself/herself a Rivers indigene support tacitly or otherwise the so-called Biafra cause when Biafra seceeded just because Rivers State was created and the Rivers people for once had a right to self rule?

In the quest for a sovereign country did the Igbo majority seek, discuss with or solicit the support of the minorities in the Oil Rivers and South-East?? Where is Biafra? How do you seek for a country which was susequently named Biafra WITHOUT involving the indigenous people of Biafra? Isn't that supreme arrogance or maybe they were not included because they were meant to be wiped out later. Events proved the latter to be true.

Late Chief (Dr.) Nabo Graham-Douglas who was the Attorney General of the Eastern Region was sent on compulsory leave and exiled to his home town Abonnema with orders for him to be executed. Fortunately the plans leaked and he miraculously escaped. He didn't draw the Articles of secession and only heard about Biafra from the BBC journalists who came to interview him in Abonnema.
He was one of the lucky ones.

The ethnic cleansing began in earnest. Our intelligentsia; top civil servants, technocrats and other able bodied men and women were rounded up and summarily executed in Enugu, Owerri, Aba, Umuahia, Degema, Buguma, Bakana, to mention but a few towns/cities. In Port Harcourt, Rainbow town and Igritta, became killing fields. the bones of those victims still lie there
These atrocities were committed by the Biafran Army, against people who were supposed to be fighting the same cause with them.
In a bid to wipe out the minority tribes, our towns and villages were evacuated, our men put to slave labour and later on shot (reminiscent of Nazi Germany), our women taken as sex slaves, young boys shared the same fate as the men. Bakana, Bille, Abonnema were all forcefully evacuated.

Finally, when the Nigerian Army counter attacked and liberated Port Harcourt, the retreating Biafran Army, burnt Kingsway (now Supabod building), Nabo Graham-Douglas's law library (which was the best Law library in the whole of West Africa) and other land marks in the Garden city. Of what military significance were these acts??

I don't blame the misguided ill-informed people for trampling on the graves of those who were murdered by the Biafran Army, by protesting in Port Harcourt. I blame Gowon for forbidding accounts of the war being published after the war, but more importantly for not trying war criminals (like Col Ojeh of Degema) within the Biafran Army and holding them accountable for their inhuman and murderous actions during the war. 70 years after World War 2, we are still reminded on a daily basis the atrocities that the Nazi's committed. If Gowon had done what he was morally and duty bound to do, this matter of Biafra would have been put to rest once and for all.

By the way, in May 1968, my uncle (my mother's younger brother) was shot in his Warri street residence in Port Harcourt, his corpse butchered, his flesh sold as Biafra meat in Mile 1 market. That same day the Nigerian Army opened up and started shelling Port Harcourt, which was ultimately liberated

Are those protesting and the other supporters of "Biafra" aware of these facts??

The war has been over these past 45 years, we are forging on as a country, setting aside our ethnocentric issues. That Ex-Biafrans have been assimilated into all spheres of our society (as they should), without any punishment meted out to the war criminals among them, doesn't give anyone the right to re-write history or bring these painful memories back.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

Wow! This story be like tales by moonlight! Who and who knew about this? No wonder they hate us so much! But how did he know that his brother was killed in warri, and his meat sold at mile 1 market? This is a tale!! I doubt this.

Rubbish! Hypocrisy will kill this country more than corruption.

omonnakoda:
Nobody go hear word again

the same goes either way! Sophisticated would be up and down! If yorubas had won an election in UK and poland it would have been noise party and bragging.

Menn since the screening of this man, he appears to me as a religious fundamentalist. He opined that religion must be enforced. I think he is a bokoharam sympathiser truly. Go and watch his opinion, he is a closet supporter of Boko-haram

Adeyinka12:
so ,yemitela team that consist every tribe don't won ?hmm. The time will come when only one tribe will dominate the team excluding igbos ,make we no hear marginalization then

liar publish their namesb 80 percent were over age and yoruba! All them players are now useless

naijapips02:
shut up. every knew when nnamdi was dating amarA. Go and read about her and her contribution to radio biafra. she once worked there, ask your dilector.

thunder go killyou! She give back the month she has collected.

Haaha na this is another version? First person alleged different thing now this ashawo? Lol sponsor another person! We must get biafra!

januzaj:
....God bless gov Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi

Movic1:
compare them with this.
U guys re nt ready walahi

they are not even up to IPOB in Aba on 30th of march!

brize:
This same kayode? Lol, but this trick is old na, imagine someone telling me not to get excited by someone i only hear his voice on radio. SMH but she(only if she is a she) expects me to believe her that i only see from someone's twitter account... Lol, she claimed that radio biafra works in a short(laughing), old old tricks don't work any more ok, she claims that the unjammable radio is run on lowest cost, hahahah i don't need to reply that, she only needs NBC to explain better......... Finally i don't blame the kayode, if all your rant about buhari killing Kanu can be rubbished by a mere granting of bail why won't you feel disappointed and disgraced. So change your tricks Mr. Man because this one is old enough to be your father..... Ask shacris04 he knows better..... *buy 1litre of otapiapia*

Bro I'm so proud of you! Now biafrans are getting there! We will get there. Their plans and propaganda are crumbling as fast as possible.

seacoast:
Igbos are strong hearted... I love them

We love you more. We will never allow injustice to prevail.

seniorbros:
The question you should be asking yourself is this, why do everyone hate the Igbos? The word "hate" may be too harsh to describe how people feel towards the Igbos, maybe I should say "dislike'.

My wife is Igbo from Anambra state, though not brought up at home, that explains why I have not seen some of the traits I see in others in her. I live in a block of 12 flats and the only people causing problem for the landlord are our eastern brothers. How can you live in someone's house and refuse to pay your rent and when asked to pay, you take the owner to Court? Some have stayed in their apartments for more than three years without paying. They are very uncooperative and always feel they are right even when they are obviously wrong.

The most annoying part of the whole gist is that even within themselves there is serious distrust. Assuming your dream for the state of Biafra becomes a reality, it's only a matter of time before you start fighting and killing each other.

If I have my way, I would allow you go and wait to see what becomes of BIAFRA.

Please take note that I am neither hausa/Fulani nor Yoruba. My village shares the same border with Enugu state.

Yoou little hater! Get lost. Igbos are in Cameroon more than in your state! So how many times have you heard of hatred towards them? You bastards should go and die....

All of you igbos supporting this junk are phools no offence!

mulattoclaro:
I'm not even Latino. I'm Afro-German. Fool.

I said it! You low life a bloody morafocker! You claimed that your pig father that fuuucked the hell out your bitchy moma is from Italy now, you are claiming German. Post your pics let's see, you're still a bastard anyway.

Ioannes:
rich yorubas look like Igbo how?
how do igbos look like?

some people should be banned from public fora, they are just too much of a hazard risk to themselves and others.

You know what I'm saying average yoruba man looks haggard, unkempt and ugly. Igbos look thick, fresh and beautiful. I dnt even bloody care if you agree with me. A yoruba man actually said that to me. You know the truth, deal with it.

mulattoclaro:
as usual. Everyone to an igbo man is a yoruba man. You're a fool and your death awaits you if you and your ipob try any nonsense.

the son of Latino dog!!! Hope you're confused.

coolitempa:
Seiously.....I aint lying to you......I would know this person is from this part or that part but it never made a difference...... ....naively like most yorubas....I assumed we thought alike........now when someone makes a statement somewhere.....I want to know why and where he or she comes from.......to hell with these animals...

Stop hating on my tribe it ain't gonna help you

Sophisticated ugly vultures! They're on rampage! But how can snitching cowards do drugs? They will expose themselves by themselves. #saynototribalism

obailala:
First of all, Yorubas and Hausas are not our 'BROTHERS,' they are rather our neighbours; and I see absolutely no reason why neighbours cannot live in peace.

You cannot play with fire and expect not to be burnt. Since Jonathan lost that election 6 months ago, Igbos (who supported GEJ) have never for once hidden their rabid hatred for Yorubas and Hausa, there is hardly any derogatory name or threat that these set of misguided Igbos have not flung at Yorubas and Hausas. As a matter of fact, the transistor radio IPOB secessionists headed by the recently arrested 'Director' have a popular saying, "The Zoo Must Fall." These miscreants and their brainwashed followers have continually released threats PUBLICLY to "kill every living thing in the Zoo." Don't you think it would be foolish not to expect the 'Zoogerians' not to mockingly reciprocate this senselessness?

What difficult times are you referring to?... That GEJ an Ijaw man lost an election, how is that supposed to be a difficult time for the generality of Igbos?... Why did we not hear about this 'difficult times' until after GEJ lost an election?.... That Igbos are not being appointed into positions by PMB , how is that supposed to be a difficult time for reasonable Igbos?... The multitude of Igbos appointed by GEJ and past administrations, how did that help the common man in the streets of Orlu, Aba or Onitsha?... All the hausa men appointed by PMB and past administrations, how did that help the common man on the streets of Kafanchan or in Daura?... Politics is a GAME, and it is a game of numbers and wits; Igbos placed ALL their cards on the wrong horse and lost it all politically. After what happened before and after the elections, it is only a foolish person that would still expect PMB to appoint into sensitive positions, people who have declared him persona non grata and people who do not even hide their rabid hatred and death wishes for him till date. Instead of going back to the political drawing board to map out superior strategies, some loud misguided Igbos are all over the place weeping and whining like babies and insulting everything and everyone insultable and now scheming to leave Nigeria through preaching hate and violence and you expect the Igbos not to be taunted?

The taunts which Igbos get today from the rest of Nigerians especially as regards this resurrected secessionist agenda, we have totally brought it upon ourselves. A man who brings home ant-infested wood should not complain if he is visited by lizards. You cannot insult others and expect not to be insulted in return; unfortunately, our misguided IPOB fans keep insulting other tribes every day. Just stand aside, imagine you were not Igbo and then listen to the statements made by some of these IPOB worshippers and tell me you will not also mock this senselessness?

Just tell me one single injustice which the common man in Igboland suffers in Nigeria today which is not also suffered by the common man in the south-south, the south west, the middle-belt and in fact, every other part of Nigeria?... Yet we claim we are saints and that every other tribe is the cause of our problems even to the point of inciting hatred amongst our youths and kids.

I wrote somewhere that people should not mix party and ethnicity in anything! If both interest crash, you stay with your tribe, that's why I don't like femi fani kayode, because he is going against his ethnic interest in favour of Party. Most of you are only book smart! That's why I'm not surprise.

coolitempa:
In all honestly....I never knew the difference between ibo or Yoruba or whatever until recently but coming online.....I realised iboes are full of hate and now that I am aware.....I chose not to associate with them anymore...

you can lie for africa! Even in Ghana they know igbos, how can you not know igbos? The rich yoruba people are the one that look like igbos. But their middle class and poor group that are in majority have a unique look!

IGBOSON1:
^^^They remind me of the silly ram that cheered Sallah, or the gormless turkey that cheered Christmas!

I used to pity pity them, but I later found that they are incorrigible, they are going to be used as pawn at last. Imagine, if crisis breaks now they will be there shouting one nigeria, then his hausa friend will zoom in with machete and barbecue him. While the anti Nigerian igbo person will know albinitio and prepared for the emergency. An anti nigeria will be armed, he will not even dare build anything in their territory. But pro nigeria will fail all these tests. And cry at last.

coolitempa:
sharapppp......

now tell me the truth, your best friend in school were igbos right?

QuotaSystem:
Obailala is an Igbo man, but a patriotic one who is not given to childish sentiments from what I have observed.

He does not subscribe to the 'playing victim' and 'igbo supremacy' school of thought, hence the misguided ones always question his identity.

It is not surprising though, Professor Osuji has researched and explained this defence mechanism by such individuals.

What the man gave up there was the truth which was obviously too hot for Vulu to handle.

those kind of people have psychological problem! They are killed in communist states, so that they do not breed another traitor! So what you have in igboland is a situation where these people have been allowed and they breed, because we a not communist or practice monarchy. We have allowed them to litter the society! People like Ozodi are just few out of many like him in igboland! They are very important in the society to balance things thou, so of them go too extreme like Ozodi! I want to task you to check if there is anybody like Ozodi in the north, or anywhere else in the world...

coolitempa:
Another idiotic thread by the hateful flat.heads.... ...you constantly dish out hate....curse Nigerians.......threaten us with death and when we respond by just flogging you....you play the victim like the cry-babies that you are.... ...where is this action that you have been promising us

Has there been any day that passed you by without writing about igbo? Must you bring your ugly face to anything igbo?
AS you are now, you can not live 100 percent without igbo, but igbos can live without you

Vulu:
PLEASE EXPATIATE

What black Americans are suffering today will persist because they are trying to belong to white dominated society, they have to work for it! Stand firm, eye to eye to whites! you don't earn respect by just shouting one nigeria.

Nigeria is skewed in favour of certain ethnic group, and the structure is stunting the growth of igbo people. . 2 any so called igbo man that kicks against freedom, should be castrated because igbos are freeborn naturally. We do not allow tyranny, we believe in egbe Bere ugo Bere. If you can not see many injustices against the igbo nation then you are not an igbo man! If we have our country, yoruba Will never disrespect our citizens, same with hausa, because if they do, we will come for them. Our dream is to bring our wealth home, bring our people scattered all over the world, back. what we are doing now, buying and selling will not sustain our future generation. We need to put things in order, fashion out a very healthy competitive atmosphere where our children will excel both in tech, ict education, sports etc. We need freedom from a country where you're called a stranger! Yet, You call me a Nigerian, but I will fill comfortable in UK than in kano or osun! Because I'm a stranger, and should be treated as such in so called nation.

Nigeria is only country where people do not have any atom patriotism! Can you beat your chest and say you will die for this country? I want a country where I can die for I can cater for, I will be a citizen of all cities.
Any igbo man that hasn't experienced any form of deliberate injustice should ask people and learn from them and not waiting for them to experience it. A Lot of things I have in mind to say, let me stop here.

To me, or in my humble opinion! The most stupid people on earth are pro nigeria igbo people.

Sophisticated drug dealership led by yorobbers since 1914. Little wonder why we have tinubu and kashamu as their leaders, suwe as their super stars!. But they can't still measure up to the standard! They have to use crude and cunny method! But how can people known for snitching around and cowards? They have been disgracing the country, credit cards fraud, email scams etc come to mind

See these mumu! So minister has eluded you, to start yarning dust as usual abi? Silly lawyer, and you wonder why people regard this one as an animal activist because he can not speak for real human with this type of staggering hypocrisy and warped logic.

Hi haters!!@op please change your name sharpaly because you're not igbo! Igbos do not jealous like this! You are so filled with bile.
Now here is your type.
