really??

I don't no whether to continue this conversation with you...

Did the British insult your father's by including them in Biafra??


Do you no the history of Nigeria and Biafra state?? I doubt you do...Niger Delta or south South are not being forced to join Biafra because they are biafrans...


There is no ethnic group in Nigeria that receives more insult from others like the igbos,make your research..

tutudesz:
Stop including Delta state in biafra, Delta North is not up to 25% of the state.

tutudesz:
For the 1st time South South leaders are not getting involve with what happening in South East but they were more interested with SouthWest herdsmen issues, which led to the southern governor's meeting.

Rugaria:
Lol
You have made this very statement a thousand times in the last 48 hours! In one post, you pronounced "as" as "has"! The "H" factor there! We know you all are trying your hands at devide and rule but you will fail! You guys said Ondo and Lagos have oil! Use it and your cocoa to build a powerful country! But if you think that running through every thread on Nairaland shouting "leave Niger Delta alone" will change anything, you are in for a big shock..

(Ondo Ijaw) your comments will not change what's on ground

FreeIgbos:
*The plan to isolate Igbos

*Why other Southerners must learn from the Tigray sufferings in Ethiopia

Any careful political observer of events in Nigeria would easily observe that the North has suddenly made a U-turn, and are now advocating for Biafra. This sudden change is not altruistic as they want people to believe but due to their own selfish interest and preservation. The Islamic North has finally realized that the demand by Igbos for Biafra is both passionate and unanimous, and it is coming at a time when Nigeria as a country is no longer attractive. Especially, with all the killings, kidnappings, landgrabbing moves, economic decline, and widespread frustration. To their alarm, the more Igbos agitate using the chaos and hopelessness being experienced in Nigeria as a good excuse, the more other groups continue to give up on Nigeria and now consider self determination as the only way out. For the first time in history, the Yorubas are now increasingly vociferous for Oduduwa republic and same goes with others like Middle belt and Niger Delta also showing signs of joining the queue.

Let's forget about political correctness being exhibited by many in the South West, the fact is that Yorubas dream of having their own nation, thus having Lagos with its ports and development to themselves and above all, being safe from the insecurity and manipulative control of North. However, they are scared of pushing for it unanimously knowing the consequences, so they are now carefully waiting patiently for any massive conflagration in Nigeria to pull the rug off the feets of Northerners!

The North has equally realized this game plan and they already know that they will forever suffer great losses should Igbos and Yorubas leave at once which will automatically mean Niger Delta also joining them in parts or forming their own nation. To worsen matters for the North, the prognosis on Nigeria already looks frightening. The economic decline, widespread bloodshed, growing intolerance, frustration, pervasive injustice and above all, the plan to resettle Fulanis in the South and Middle belt which they hope would eventually earn them indigene status in the near future thus cementing their hegemonic control of Nigeria are issues most Southerners are now aware of.

They also know that IPOB wants Biafra at all costs, even if it means sacrificing Igbos living in the North to achieve it. The bait was to frustrate North with their agitation to the extent that North may want to attack Igbos and their businesses like often did in the past. This situation will no doubt translate to attacks against the entire South since mobs won't be able to differentiate between Igbos and other Southerners. The killings and reprisals would be so much that emotions will flare and the international community would equally wade in, and ultimately, Nigeria will be dissolved. The fear of this situation is the basic reason why the North would never allow killing of Igbos/Southerners no matter the provocation, and instead now issue ineffective foodstuff bans......

Rugaria:
Face your Ondo, unless you want IPOB to speak to you in the language you will understand at Ore

Beautiful write up.
I think in 2023 south south and Muslim north would occupy presidency. This is to pacify south south because of how GEJ was treated. It would be Greek gift. Fulanis are master of political game.
South west would still remain in political limbo.

tutudesz:
Ibos receive insults because they lack respect for others. If South South is telling you I don't want to be part of biafra, you should respect.
Nigeria and eastern region were created without the opinion of other ethnic groups.

tutudesz:
Knowing me doesn't change what on ground Instead of building bridges with other zone, you are creating more enemies.

tutudesz:
No body is stopping Delta North from leaving with you, but including a full state with other ethnic groups is the problem.
The more you keep doing that, the more enemies you creat.
You keep insulting non Ibo leaders from South South and you want us to support you and be friends

tutudesz:
Including other ethnic groups in your biafra.
Insulting leaders from other ethnic groups.
Insulting ethnic groups will are not in support of biafra.

FreeIgbos:
There is no doubt about that, SS minorities and indeed other regions have always had sellouts that connived with fulanis to destroy their people. Even sending Akpabio to go and meet Tompolo is all part of the game plan. They will empower some notable SS leaders financially and politically, and then use them against their people. However, when it comes to referendum, it goes beyond the influence of one or two leaders, rather it will reverbrate all over from the community level, to state and diaspora influences. It is the will of the overwhelming majority that will count.

Brimstone77:
After listening to buharis broadcast I think it's the right time the ss make their stance known on this issue of Biafra...


Igbos can't keep dying for Biafra without even knowing who are with them...


If the Niger Deltans want to be part of the Biafran state they should boldly make it known, enough of this hide and seek...


Because all what buhari said that day is sending a negative massage about Niger deltan stance on the issue of Biafra...


Kanu enough of all these South south, south east brotherhood..


If Biafra it will be Biafra of South East only let it be ....we can't continue playing this brotherly at the detriment of our safety and lives...igbos have lost enough on this Biafra issue..


A landlock Biafra of south east states where lives and people's Right will be respected is still hundred times better than Nigeria where igbos are been killed by security agencies daily...


Right now igbos should stop playing political correctness and take the bull by the horn..


Out strength have been questioned and we Shouldn't be intimidated again..

FreeIgbos:
After considering all the risks, the Islamic North has realized that Igbo separatists are using the chaos in Nigeria to make others see balkanization as a viable way out. Again, since they can't see any solution in sight, especially with their move to resettle wandering fulani herdsmen in the South and Middle belt being countered vehemently, and Igbos being at the forefront of this. They decided it would be in their best interest to rally others in Nigeria by isolating Igbos, demarketing them and forcing them into accepting an enclave nation within Nigeria. All these attacks from the man in Aso rock, to his cabinet and down to the influential Northerners are all part of the game plan.

They are now clamoring for the Igbos to leave with just the 5 SE States not minding that they're spread all across the SS and Benue State. The plan is to make Biafra/Igbos to remain dependent on Nigeria for its maritime and other crucial needs.

Going forward, they are mobilizing resources toward pitching SS minorities against Igbos so that this plan will work. Even Buhari stated this recently, that they've gotten some agreements from the minorities.

Whichever way it goes, it has become evident that Igbos will eventually leave Nigeria. However, what is not assured is whether the Yorubas, Niger Delta and Middle belt minorities will be serious enough to leverage the momentum to break free too or if they would be decieved to remaining in Nigeria. At this point, it is important to use the example of Ethiopia to show a glimpse of what fate allows any group that fails to leave once Igbos break free.

Ethiopia has several similarities with Nigeria. The country was sharply divided both in terms of religious and ethnic groups. There was always tensions, killings and attempts by certain groups to dominate others. These constant crises eventually led to a push by the Eritreans to have their own country. However, while the Eritreans People's Liberation Front EPLF were passionately fighting for it, and suffering massive indignities and humiliations just like the IPOB/Igbos in Nigeria today, other groups in Ethiopia either supported Addis Ababa or remained neutral, including the Tigrayans who were enjoying certain political advantages then. Today, Eritrea is not only independent but peaceful as well, but on the contrary, Ethiopia has remained in turmoil, moving from one crises to another. The people of Tigray that were once calling the shots and promoting a "United Ethiopia" are today enmeshed in an endless fight with the government of Ethiopia. Addis Ababa has continued to attack and massacre them with millions displaced and millions more facing starvation. The Tigrayans are now full of regret for not fighting to break free when the Eritreans presented them the opportunity. But it's too late for them. Referendum is generally organized once in a lifetime, once it is done it becomes binding.

To Yorubas, Southern and middle belt minorities, who the government may use the enormous resources at its disposal to intimidate, brainwash, influence or even bribe, always remember the people of Tigray and what they are suffering today while the world ignores.

I agree 100% with you; BIAFRA IS IGBO BUSINESS.

What I don't understand is why it gives people sleepless night?
Another man's business?

A simple referendum will solve all the SS-Biafra issue. If Oju people in Benue state and Anioma people of Delta state vote to be in BIAFRA, while Ikwerre folks in Rivers decide to stay in Nigeria; their choice. Why the stress
