Exactly this. This post by the OP is both laughable, ridiculous and sinister. Any Biafran. that takes this seriously should come speak with me for some mental strength discussion. Imagine the audacity of these J@njaweed. Not only do they invade and attempt to steal our lands, they try to invoke disunity. FML. I CANNOT wait to be disassociated from this cancer.

Hausas better start eliminating these fulanis otherwise, they'd be completely conquered in no time.

Its very pathetic, me I don't even take those people serious. If those evil people have the opportunity hold the key to a nuclear weapon, they will gladly level the eastern region. So, its best not to listen to anything they say about the eastern region. The insecurity in the north is projecting Nigeria in a bad light in the international community, making us look similar to Talibans and yet non of them I repeat non of them is opening threads about the crisis up north. It's to show you that people with such evil in their heart can do anything to achieve their aims. True true younger easterners needs to study who are really their friends and needs to get orientation from older and wise men on the characters of the evil ones in this country.

The irony is that, if you research well amongst them and in their groups, there is no one more obsessed about Biafra than Ebonyi people... You know what is even more alarming, even those that some groups like Ezzas consider "strangers" like the Orring (Effium) people are more obsessed about it, from Ezza-Effium to Igbo Imabana in Cross-River. state.

I guess some of these outsiders too think too hard about the "Ebonyi inferiority tag''... because they are sourcing for any iota of information they can use to cause further division, they believe that this strategy will work.... I watch your best friend Juliusmawhatever tried this strategy for years to no avail... The Ebonyi jokes are just light-hearted sibling banter...this doesn't mean every Igbo doesn't love them to death.... and this tag does not even extend to all, because Afikpo people for instance can stand their own against any Igbo group.

Despite the economic or educational disadvantage they had faced in the past, they are gradually doing better than most state in other geographic zone and definitely better than ALL the northern states... They have faired better than Oyo, Osun and Ondo state for instance in WAEC, JAMB and STEM courses.

Like every igbo group, those guys are obsessive hard workers, however, strong legitimate hustlers...

People who think they can use the Ebonyi agenda as a tool for division are wasting their time.
We have stated it clearly here than ebonyians are not igbos and Umahi has affirmed that.

Give any historical appreciation that supports Igbo origin. Most of them are northern migrants.

Umahi is one man. That's why we have referendum.


Ikpunwanyianamb:
Umahi has made the most honest truth,Nsukka too is marginalised by igbos and will never be part of Biafra.
Only the useless cursed and worthless terrorist infested Anambra state is rooting for the kind stupid Biafra when we know how worse they are compared to an Hausa person.

An Hausa or Yoruba will treat you far better than a fellow igbo will treat you. Biafra is already a cursed state before it started.

If you're from Nsukka or Ebonyi and you're dying for Biafra then you died for nothing.

Nonsense and Peter Obi's loot shocked

In 2013, while I was serving in Oko, I lived in Ekwulobia.
So one day my neighbor called me for a meeting on how to split the power bill..
So I ask him about the man(dude is a family guy with kids) in the bq, why he isn't here, and the dude replied , so I didn't know the guy was from ebonyi and didn't have sense... That I should forget the guy... My jaw dropped..

Coming from the previous Chairman of SE Governors Forum
Is there anything to share in SE (that's if there has ever been any) and Ebonyi was pushed under the Bus or what?

Anyways, Sir Francis Akanu Ibiam, former governor of Eastern Region, the proud Igbo son that returned his British knighthood in protest of British role in Biafran genocide will be turning in his grave right now.

It is interesting to note that the same Akanu Ibiam denounced his white baptizimal name "Francis" in protest as well.

Finally for those that don't know, Dr. Akanu Ibiam is from Unwana in Afikpo North, EBONYI STATE
I believe the governor is correct. Many igbos look down on Ebonyi and consider them lesser igbos.
Do you remember the time Anambra, government changed the name ofor a street from abakalili steel to club street? You need to read that thead on nairaland. You need to see what fellow igbos said about ebonyi.
Again why is it that you guys get angry with any igbo that doesn't believe in biafra.
I thought biafra was supposed to be a free state with free thinkers. We igbos are a diverse people. The average igbo was not born in the 60s.
A good percentage of igbo were born outside the southeast.

Umahi is 100% right..Ebonyians are not really keen on the Biafran thing .
Mostly now that they are among the leading elites of igbos at the federal level.
Please say what you know. Try to say this anywhere in Ebonyi State
Re: Umahi: Ebonyi People Marginalised By Igbos, Will Never Be Part Of Biafra by Arabaincubus: 7:55am On Oct 07, 2021
This is not new. Umahi has always wished to belong to the NE. He has always said that he can't compete with the Anambra people.

He, Umahi was the one that stopped Ibeto cement from operating in Ebonyi, claiming 2nd slavery.


The wonder then is how the Igbo governors will allow one who does not believe in Igbo renaissance to lead the governor's forum?

Anyways, there will be sunshine again.

You are not wrong but it exists only in Anambra State not Imo or Abia. I only got to know about it on Nairaland and later through live discussions. I believe Anambra as a State discriminated against other Igbos which birthed much of the disunity but in recent years the unity has improved.

If I’m not sure of anything, I know the Igbo Muslims in Ebonyi are marginalized by the Igbo Catholics.
Coming from same headslamers that will be quick to chop of the head of their family members that dares turn to Christianity. After what u guys are doing to christians in southern kaduna and other christians in the north, u are still shameless to voice out an opinion. Ndi uchu...

Kai!... See Fulani people all over the thread trying their luck with the divide and rule strategy. This silly man only speaks for himself... If Nigeria should divide today, where do you want Ebonyi to belong then. I am sure this stupid man wouldn't want to stay with the Hausa and Fulanis.
Re: Umahi: Ebonyi People Marginalised By Igbos, Will Never Be Part Of Biafra by Emperor5(m): 8:21am On Oct 07, 2021
Irrespective of politics, umahi have made a significant point about ebonyians and Biafra. Over the years Ebonyi is been marginalized by other Igbo state in East just like Nsuka people there by seeing them as third class Igbo with mockery name "Nwa abankelele" umahi is very realistic but he must be attack by ipob miscreants because he said the truth. The more Ebonyians understand this and denounce Biafra agitation the better for them. Delta and rivers made a good choice by not allowing Ipob to disorganized development in thire state, I believe it's a high time for ebonyi to follow Sue. Any ebonyi or Nsuka man that die because of Biafra died in vein

The quest for the restoration of Biafra is the greatest unifying factor in Igbo land.
Despite petty prejudices among igbos,Biafra is so dear to their hearts . It is a cause they so much believe in,that nothing can dissuade nor intimidate them out of .
If you go around Igbo villages, market places ,churches,offices or any where Igbo gather,in both south east and beyond, the most attention drawing issue is Biafra. Umahi and his co-travellers are polital jobbers looking for money and positions from Nigerian govt at expense of their brothers. They do not speak for Igbos and nobody in Igbo land takes them serious. If umahi goes to any village in Igbo land without police excort, even his very state, ebonyi and talk against biafra I can bet anything, he will not leave there alive.
Let nobody decieve you that Igbos are divided about biafra. Even the ones in govt are tactically supporting biafran independence. Take it or leave it.

Even my state will not be part of Nnamdi KANU's Biafra.
Even his village Afaraukwu Ibeku will not like to belong in IPOB's Biafra.
Biafra has become an affliction that ndi Igbo have to discard by all means possible.
This is the fact here

I can tell Igbo people want Biafra but not this nnamdi kanu/ipob brand


Remove ipob and many other igbos will support Biafra - they are going about the right thing the wrong way.

Biafra will never be actualized by violence.
