You Igbos are the ones always masturbating on Yoruba threads. Always abusing and insulting all other tribes. Let me tell you, Igbos do not have a monopoly of hatred. Other tribes tried to reason with you but your hatred for everything non-Igbo just pushed everyone away. All Nigerian tribes hate you. You guys are hated in South Africa. Let it be known that the Xenophobia we see in South Africa against Nigerians is mainly against the Igbo tribe. They hate you guys there. They hate you in Dubai, Malaysia and everywhere else you go.

Your hate is now permeating so much you have turned on yourselves. Two monarchs were killed today by IPOB. Killings everyday and everywhere. We will just let you continue to kill each other - we just keep watching. But if you try any other tribe in this country, na cane una go collect. Most of the other tribes are bigger than you sef and certainly richer in resources.

Kiss the truth.
Nigeria will never allow Igbo go with any none Igbo speaking State. grin

Let’s also add. The non-Igbo speaking tribes will never follow the Igbos. They will walk alone this time. They will go back to their erosion infested, barren land with no infrastructure. They have no power plants, no industry, no seaport, no oil, no natural resource. I pity them.

My real question is – why is Nnamdi Kanu fighting for the rights of other minority tribes and wants them included in Biafra by force. Nnamdi Kanu’s Biafra must include Ijaw, Itsekiri, Urhobo, Efik and Ibibio. I guess his Biafra will exclude Edo State and other minority tribes in the North Central. Asari Dokubo and Ijaw leaders insult Nnamdi Kanu, but he never talks back – why does he want to go with the Niger Delta at all cost?

Why can’t he just take his 5 Igbo speaking states and go. We can add the Igbo speaking parts in Rivers and Delta to that. Why does he want the Ijaw, Itsekiri, Urhobo, Efik and Ibibio at all cost? Is it true love or is it because of their Oil? Why does he not want Edo in his Biafra? Is it because Edo has no Oil? I am sure Nnamdi Kanu would not mind adding Lagos and Abuja to his Biafra if given the chance.

Truth be told is that we all know what he wants. He wants to control the Oil rich Niger Delta all by himself. And if he gets to do that, he will subjugate the Niger Delta tribes far worse than the Fulanis have done.

You're 1000% spot on.

The really tragic thing about this is that many Igbos have been brainwashed into thinking they can actually achieve their MAD DREAM of seceding with Nigeria's oil assets.

The source of 80% of FG revenue.

They just want to go with it!

Damn the consequences if millions of Nigerian children die of starvation as a result.

In their MAD DREAM, Nigerians will just be looking at them as they take off with our oil fields and oil reserves.

The 2+million people they lost trying to do that in the late 1960s is not enough for them.

They want more Igbo blood sacrificed for their impossible MAD DREAM.

That Biafra dream is a demonic possession of their people.

It erupts every few years to kill them.

Until they abandon that MAD DREAM based on RAW GREED and SELFISHNESS, one of their own will never be allowed to lead the Federal Republic, and Nigerians will continue to regard them with deep suspicion.

Bros the picture you put up there can give some people heart attack o. When Igbos see Tinubu's picture they nearly faint, as if Tinubu is the cause of their problems in life. On the contrary, Tinubu actually gave them a free reign in Lagos. It was when Tinubu was Governor that they came into Lagos in large numbers; now they have all turned against the Yoruba.

Biafrauders the ponzi schemers.

I know why I put up that picture. Na to pain them well well grin grin

They are the most gullible and delusional people in the world. One day they are Jews, the next day they want Biafra, the next they want President of Nigeria. These guys are bipolar. Now they have been scammed into following a con-artist like Nnamdi Kanu after following Henry Uwazurike of MASSOB for several years.

Now they have started killing each other. Killings everyday, yet their leaders are just trying to cash out, praising Buhari up and down. They keep blaming other tribes but will never blame their useless leaders who keep selling them for a few million naira.

No one will allow an Igbo man to lead Nigeria. And if they want their Biafra, we must make it clear that they will go alone!

Someone asked KANU a big question on radio call and he said WHY ARE YOU INCLUDING THE PEOPLE THAT DONT WANT TO BE A PART OF BIAFRA

KANU ANSWERED: I want them to turn down our offer officially through referendum so that their children and children children will not wake up one day and say we betrayed them and left them behind. The same way their children are being told today that Igbo man are here to dominate you....if through referendum the Igbo speaking part of all these states said we officially don't want to be a part of you we will go with our conscience clear and it will be on record not my father said or my fathers father said.

And the person asked what of those that voted to be part of Igbo and later the majority vote said no


KANU answered: we will give these people lands of their own in Biafra land then they go ahead proper and acquire more property and lands for themselves.

Leader of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has revealed why he turned down the alleged offer by the Federal Government to have Biafra Republic that comprises only five core Igbo-speaking states in the South East. Kanu who made the revelation in a live broadcast monitored by newsmen in Abia said his passion to liberate all oppressed indigenous tribes in the old Eastern region made him to insist on not leaving them behind.

“When I was at Kuje prison the federal government offered to give me Biafra provided I leave other tribes outside the five South East states but I told them I must go with the other oppressed nationalities because I don’t want them to continue suffering subjugation”. He however, regretted the utterances of some persons from the minority tribes who he said had the wrong notion that the Igbo intend to dominate them in the new republic.

Kanu condemned an alleged uttrance by the Ikwere people in Rivers State that the five South East Igbo states should leave them out of the Biafra project. He warned them and non-igbo speaking tribes in the Niger Delta region against the danger of opting out of the Biafra Republic.
He said that the fate of any minority tribe that refused to be part of Biafra Republic would be worse than the Hausa’s who have since lost their identify and freedom to the Fulani. Kanu regretted that most of the minority tribes were yet to learn from the mistake of the Hausa.
He declared that contrary to misconceptions in some quarters the struggle for Biafra republic was not for the Igbo to subjugate or dominate the minority tribes but to free them from bondage. Kanu said that the way the Jews were hated for no just cause was the way “Ndigbo are being hated for no justifiable reason”. The IPOB leader claimed that Biafra lost the civil war because of global conspiracy allegedly championed by the British.

I have repeated the reason time and time again on this thread but I will indulge you. Let's take the Ijaws as a group.

The Ijaws are as populous as the Igbos. There are Ijaws in 6 States and Igbos in seven. So the population are similar. The Ijaws are rich in natural resources - Oil, Gas, Bitumen etc. The Ijaws have a lot more resources than the Igbos. The Ijaws are not landlocked like the Igbos. So tell me why the Ijaws should follow the Igbos? What can the Igbos offer the Ijaws? All the Igbos in Lagos and Abuja will now relocate to Port Harcourt and Yenegoa right? It will not be any better than remaining in Nigeria because the Igbo will want to dominate and control their resources just like the Igbos did during the war. The Ijaws are smarter than that now. Let me also educate you that the first man to declare a breakaway republic was an Ijaw man - Isaac Adaka Boro. Ojukwu quelled the rebellion and later killed him. The Ijaws have been fighting for freedom long before the Igbos. Ken Saro Wiwa was fighting the military long before clowns like Uwazurike and Kanu knew anything. So tell me what the Igbos can offer the Ijaw. If Nigeria breaks, the Ijaw will form their own republic because they can stand alone, they will not go with Igbo.

The other group are Efik/Ibibio (including Ogoja etc). They have a smaller population than the Igbos, however, they are very rich in Natural resources. The have abundant oil, gas, palm produce etc. They have seaport, and better infrastructure than the Igbos. So tell me why they would join the Igbos. The Igbos have nothing to offer them. They are way superior to the Igbos in everyway. If they join the Igbos, all the Igbos would move to Calabar and Uyo to leach on their resources. Why would the Efik/Ibibio want that. If Nigeria were to break, the Efik/Ibibio will form their own nation or join the Ijaw as one nation in the republic of Niger-Delta. That will make more sense with both the Ijaw and Efik/Ibibio both contributing to the union.

Ask yourself why the Igbos are so scared to go alone. Truth is that you have nothing, and you offer nothing to any group. That is why you are all in Lagos, Abuja, Kano and Port Harcourt. Always leaching on other people's resources, but there is nobody in your lands because you have nothing to offer.

Let us even examine what caused the pogroms. The pogroms happened all over the North - from North West, North East and even Tiv and Idoma. That got me thinking because the Tiv/Idoma are some of the most peaceful people you can find. So why would the Tiv/Idoma begin to kill Igbos. Let's examine the events of 1966 again.

Nigeria was in a Federal democracy, with very strong regions and a relatively small center. The center was led by NPC with Tafawa Balewa as Prime Minister and Nnamdi Azikiwe as ceremonial president. Ahmadu Bello was premier of the North.In January 1966, five Igbo army officers staged a coup and killed all Hausa/Fulani, Tiv/Idoma and Yoruba politicians and senior military officers. Not one Igbo politician or senior officer was killed. They coup plotters only targets Northers and Westerners without anyone from the East getting hurt.

Aguiyi Ironsi took over and never punished the coup plotters. The immediate thing Ironsi did was declare a Unitary system of government in which all the resources were now controlled by the center. Essentially, Ironsi's Igbo led government would now control all the resources of the country. This did not go down well with everybody else as they viewed this as a ploy for the Igbos to dominate everyone else.

Lastly, the Igbos living in the North - Kano, Makurdi, Kaduna, Sokoto, Jos etc now starting taunting and laughing at the Northerners. They would say that their sons - Nzeogwu, Ifeajuna, Anufor and Onwuategwu - killed all the Northern politicians like dogs. They would taunt the notherners that the Igbos are now in charge and they could do as they liked. Igbos would paste pictures of the dead body of Ahmadu Bello, the Sardauna of Sokoto and taunt their hosts.

The Hausas, Tiv, Fulani, Kanuri, Idoma hated all of this from the Igbo and planned to retaliate. That was how the pogroms started, when the counter-coup happened. Let's also tell the complete story. There were also pogroms in the East as well. The Igbo killed the Tiv, Idoma and Huasa living in the East as well. There were killings from both sides and all the regional governments directed all their people to go back to their regions.

You people make me laugh. All the population you claim Ijaws have, all the sea port, all the resources and oil, of what benefit has it done Ijaws in Nigeria? Has it turned Ijaw land into Dubai? You are online talking about Igbos and Biafra agitation yet the Ijaws dont have agitation of their own.

If Ijaws feel that they have what it takes, let them start their own movement for a separate country, or for restructuring or resource control. But if Ijaws just sit around and keep talking about what they have, or dont have, they will be talking about that forever.

I thought by now Ijaws would have created a movement, taken to the streets to demand a better deal, within Nigeria or outside Nigeria

But some of them are just there, watching sheepishly as Biafra and Oduduwa keep rising every day, while they talk of resources that has not benefitted them, and they dont even control

I laugh in Chinese

Let's tell the complete story. .

This dominating attitude is why no one wants to see them as president.

The reason for Azikiwe forming alliance with the North rather than with Awolowo was because they assumed they would be able to Lord and dominate Balewa.
When they realized it was a pipe dream and the name of president was only a name and nothing much else, they had to seize power through the back door.

Always about selfish interests.

Look at their Biafra agitation, at the center of it all is their desire to dominate the Niger Delta oil.

They think theyre the only ones with sense
