I did a thead on NBC shutting down a show for talking about the Asaba Massacre and after reading over 4 pages of this post, I wish I didn't make it, because as usual it derailed off the point.

The Biafra civil war was regrettable. Both sides suffered regrettable casualties and let us all pray it doesn't happen again.

If you watched the platform, you'd realise something, the speakers were very convincing. One reason for that was because of their knowledge of the past. Alot of youth know nothing of this past but will argue about it with so much confidence. That's called IGNORANCE!

The killings that happened in Asaba on October 1967 shouldn't be equated with anything else. It shouldn't be used to throw cheap shot at Buhari, or continue your never ending backlash on the Igbos or Muslims. That's insane!

That massacre is barbaric. It was a pre meditated massacre. It was done for the fun of killing and not because they were retaliating or anything.

If you tell me we shouldn't discuss it because the nation is currently tensed, I can see sense in that but to say we shouldn't because its a war and there were casualties on both sides, you need to watch it, politics is eating deep into that thing that makes you HUMAN! This is not Ipob, this is not GEJ vs PMB, this is man's inhumanity to man, and no one, I repeat no one should try justifying that massacre.

idiot this is stale. Ojukwu seceded from Nigeria because of pogroms going on in the north which the FG couldnt or didnt stop. And while he was targeting millitary formations and govt institutions in Nigeria, Nigerian millitary with the help of a shameless britain was targeting civilians in biafra who were defenceless

Despite the poor citizens had a peaceful demonstration to support one nizooria still they where killed. O God why did you put us under the care of Animals. What did we do to deserve this punishment. We believe in you and they don't, Please almighty papa save your remnants. Amen

Episteme2:
This is chilling. The worst of it all being that there was no media coverage. The Federal authorities tried as much as possible to suppress the news but people fleeing Asaba spread the word, and the killings of large numbers of people of Igbo ethnicity substantiated Biafran claims that the war was one of genocide. Researches have equally shown that the killings in Asaba were unprovoked.
The Asaba killings raise issues that go beyond the tragedy of one community. The war has left a bitter legacy; many today argue that the violence and ethnic hatred endemic in contemporary Nigeria are partly attributable to an institutionalised unwillingness to come to terms with it. And till date, the endemic hatred still breathes even more healthily.

The igbos could 've escaped such faith had it been they did not carry out the ethnic coup.

Buhari is president of Nother Nigeria, not my presdebt. So, shut the Bleep up

nairanaira12:
Yes, we can all see their empty trainings and how they end up being donated to Boko Haram and transforming them to beggers

Then the cow milk has sunk into your brain not to remember what you wrote

nairanaira12:
And you calling someone a cow, is that how your almanjiri, born-throway parents teach you at home?

nairanaira12:
I don't peddle drug; so, I don't know what your twisted brain is talking about. Only an idiotic hausa/fulani fool will think anyone opposing his view must be an igbo.

nairanaira12:
Too much cow milk has done bad thing to your brain

nairanaira12:
So, your dead brain told you I'm igbo?

nairanaira12:
At least, you've successfully revealed the hidden plans of you tribe to me this night. If I had doubts before, I now know your true intention. I will save this revelation. It can be useful in the future

nairanaira12:
You won't continue leading me. You will only lead your cows and people of middlebelt, not me.

nairanaira12:
So, you are the one that determines Nigeria's presidency? What do you plan to do? Rig with underage voters or what?

nairanaira12:
Shut up Mr. Seeking for secession is people's right. If they want biafra, they will have it. You may delay, but you can't prevent. If you call then masters of failure, what do you want to call Buhari, who failed to win election 3 times? And since he had won, what had he achieved?

nairanaira12:
You will lose out, parasite. You may have power over the military, but you can't stop the inevitable.

nairanaira12:
Are you saying the Nigerian army branch of hausa/fulani?

nairanaira12:
Then why do you insist you don't want the south to go, either by secession or recommendations? Is it because you guys are parasites?
