Adaka Boro did not have any problem with any other nationality in Nigeria besides you Ibos.

He knew what was the motivation and reason for the Jan 15 coup and he acted justly to seccede from a Nigeria that had fallen into Ibo dictatorship - something he knew very well of.

At no time has the SS ambitions ever alligned with yours.

You can't be basing your first time attempt of building an empire on the left over works of the British who lumped SS with you guys in the old eastern region .

I truly blame the British for creating eastern region because if they had been seensitive to your greed they would have never lumped the SS with you Ibos.
Why did the Benue people object to being lumped with the eastern Nigeria on its creation ? Because they knew about you guys long before the British created eastern and western Nigeria. Your wickedness is why Benue is now in the north and western Cameroun left Nigeria

You are a greedy overbearing and domineering bullies.
Well I'm saw Adaka Boro is very happy where he is about the fact 80% of the oil of his land are now in the hands of Notherners. Igbo was the problem they?

Key Events in Adaka Boro's revolt.


Declaration of Independence: On February 23, 1966, Major Adaka Boro declared the Niger Delta Republic, citing the region’s historical and cultural distinctiveness from the rest of Nigeria.

Formation of the Niger Delta Volunteer Force: Boro formed an armed militia, the Niger Delta Volunteer Force, comprising mainly of Ijaw ethnic group members.

Battle with Federal Forces: The Niger Delta Volunteer Force clashed with federal troops for 12 days, from February 23 to March 6, 1966.

Defeat and Arrest: The rebellion was ultimately crushed, and Boro and his comrades were arrested and charged with treason.
Yes, and anyone can make any declaration. I can even declare Sokoto to be Republic of Gobir

Idiot , he didn't fight for oil.

He fought so that he's people won't be genocided and displaced from their own land.

Your Ojukwu and his band of Enugu misfits fought for oil and the land of the SS people
.

That's why Awo rightly said Ojukwu wasn't interested in secession but rather conquest.

Adaka is the reason the SS exists today as a dinstinctive collection of minority ethnic groups.

If he had not rose to the challenge, the SS today will be much more different than it used to as you would have genocided every ethnic minority and displaced the rest .

Is this not why you guys are all in support of Pissrael stealing and displacing Palestinians off their lands?

The ambitions of Zionists in Palestine is what you hold for the Niger Delta

One idiot here Alexbells even wrote here that sooner or later , the SS people will suffer the same fate as the Palestinians.

The SS is better off in Nigeria than being wiped off the surface of the earth by you orcs.

Ironsi and ojukwu didn't let Boro leave Nigeria with Ijaw land, if Ojukwu left with Igbo lands in the east central state, there would have been no war. Ojukwu wanted to leave with Rivers and Cross River that belong to Nigeria

There no such thing as SS but a mere geographical expression. Grabbing several ethnic groups you have no connection with and calling them one fictional name 'SS' doesnt make them a people. Thats what Nigeria is, a land grabbing exercise since the days of the British till now

It's the Biafran agitator that wants referendum so that people can choose who they are, and where they want to belong

That's always been the case. Whenever anyone wants leave Nigeria, someone will prevent you. That's why the current agitation of people like that of the Biafran and Oduduwa agitator is one of referendum

We give the people the one in a life time opportunity to choose where they want to be. The alternative is 'one Nigeria by force', but thst means that Nigeria will never be peaceful because no enforced union is

Put your non existing integrity on the line and show me one thing i wrote there, that was historically wrong. Thats how you prove that I'm a product of Radio Biafra. Some of you don't even know that it was Ironsi that stopped the coup and that without Ironsi, the coup was already a succes. You all think that Ironsi planned the coup, even when your brother Adegbeyoga told you he was never part of it..How would you know the truth, when you are a student of the Agbadorian School of Revisionism?

Re: Don't Compare Ojukwu And Adaka Boro, Boro Was A Joke by IGBOPROMISE1:
AwkaFinest:
Have you heard the phrase, the enemy of my enemy is my friend?

Boro's first idea was to liberate the ijaws from the oppression of the Igbos in the old eastern region and then Nigeria.

Igbos jailed him for that, and Nigeria freed him. So what where you expecting him to do? To fight the people that freed him against the ones that jailed him? Ijaws are not betrayers like our Igbo people.
To start with, you couldn't do better than to have a moniker that relects your TRUE ethnic identity...you and all your other alternate 'Igbo' monikers!

Also, Boro was just being petty, acting like a kid, and possibly jealous and tribalistic! Dude, there was NO 'OPPRESSION' BY THE iGBO ON THE IJAW AND OTHER ETHNICITIES IN THE THEN EASTERN REGION! Yes the Igbo were the dominant ethnicity in the region owing to their numbers and this was reflected in the politics and administration of the region at the time! Given the fact that it was just 4 or 5 years after 'independence', sure there would have been some imbalances in the politics and administration of the region at the time, but THIS WAS NOT DONE OUT OF MALICE AND A DESIRE TO CHEAT AND DOMINATE OTHERS, and given the passage of time things would surely have levelled out to the benefit of the other ethnicities that shared the region with Ndigbo! The problem was the likes of Boro were just too childish, impatient and jealous, and was probably being used by envious outside forces (same forces that 'liberated' them and took over 'ownership' of Nigeria and Niger-Delta oyel and gas) to try and cause unrest and destabilisation in the then Eastern Region!

To the sensible Ijaw, Igbo and others reading this post....given the benefit of hindsight and seeing how the 'liberators' have managed (or is it mismanaged) Nigeria and its opportunities, resources and unity, can you honestly say Boro made the right choice in the mid to late 60s!? This was the same person, a Ijaw, who students of UNN voted to be student union president! We all know the people trying to paint the Igbo as the 'agressors' and they're doing it out of hate, tribalism and greed for Nigerias' resources which they want to primarily benefit them and their region before others!

Don't know if actually Ojukwu was involved in getting Boro jailed or was just acting on instructions from the centre, but Ironsi who was the head of state at the time was exactly that....the head of state of Nigeria and not of Ndigbo, hence he was operating with a 'one Nigeria' mindset! Assuming, without conceding, that Ironsi did anything wrong in getting Boro arrested, the blame for that should lay at the doorstep of Ironsi and not Ndigbo as you wickedly and stupidly want to argue!

On the topic, this was what i posted yesterday: 'What exactly was the nature of this fight? Who was he fighting against….the Eastern Region or Nigeria!? What was the territorial extent of this Niger Delta Republic he was fighting for!? Which Niger Delta ethnicities did he co-opt into this declared Republic!? What was its capital!? And finally, what happened to this yearning for a Niger Delta Republic in today’s Niger Delta or amongst the Ijaw: i mean, has the push for them to secede now been abandoned, and if so, is it because they have found the El-Dorado they were looking for in present day Nigeria!?'

It's the Biafran agitator that wants referendum so that people can choose who they are, and where they want to belong
And there's no such thing as an Ibo nation because prior to colonial Nigeria the Ibos lived in isolation and fear of each other in clans with no central authority.

Your entire identity to your fictional Biafra is based on British colonialism

As much as the SS isn't one homogeneous entity, it has over the years carved out a sociopolitical identity since the days of both western and eastern Nigeria. The minorities in eastern Nigeria were inspired by their counterparts in the then Western Nigeria who succeeded peacefully via democratic means to have their own Midwest region


During the war, non Ibo people of Midwestern Nigeria overwhelmed the Nigerian Army recruiting board to assist their brothers under the yoke of Biafra.

Even the militancy agitation in the Niger Delta against the exploitation of oil companies was a unified front among all ethnic groups in the region.

Since ever then you will agree that politically we have all voted in near unison for the same political cause, party and candidates.

The SS remains far more United as a brotherly fraternity than you banza orcs that only unite at the prospect of revamping your criminal biafran cause.

That here is why the Niger Delta people are far more United than you can ever imagine. We even created pidgin English to communicate amongst ourselves. It's only in the SS that local dialects are not a means of communication outside your home because we know others don't speak the same language with us.

What has your own new found criminal alliance brought you besides alienation , ridicule and disdain.

You’re correct, but Federal forces?

Just state it as it is. It was Ojukwu & Ironsi that descended on Boro. Ironsi, being the one with power didn’t consult any Nigeria federal lawmakers!

Nigeria had no reason to fight boro. He declared Niger delta region simply & peacefully without any war threat. If not for the Ibos, he would have been successful..

Ojukwu wanted boro’s down and Ironsi granted it without a blink!

If you think there will be any entertainment for presenting a referendum in the SS to join Biafra you are then obviously living in a fool's paradise.

The SS will only engage in a referendum to leave Nigeria on their own and not to be yoked to your orcs.

They have seen what being with Ibos is and they will never ever consider it even if it is presented to them in a dream.

You should concentrate on your five Ibo states .and that's a very good advise from me to you so as to prevent another catastrophy a hundred times worse than what befell you before .

If not for that desperate Ned who is looking for every means to be Governor and pandering to you Ibos in the senate and those that have settled in Asaba , will you even think of a referendum anywhere in the SS ?

You will not prompt us and neither should you be any way concerned about our fate in Nigeria or not.

A true bastard that went about disgracing his father's name by being an unruly violent brute throughout his early years.

A banza who pulled a gun on his father and threatened to kill him.

Even when the father tried to appeal directly to his son at Enugu govt house, Ojukwu humiliated him by refusing to see him. Ojukwu had his guards subject the old man who came to preach peace to his son, to be searched at the gate and denied entry for over 2hrs. The old man had to leave back for Lagos and when he found out his mission to see his son was futile.

Sir Louis Ojukwu died from heartbreak caused by his wayward son.

All these are recollections from Azikiwe .
Idiotic Ojukwu was a coward, but with this *I be warrior mindset* He doesn’t listen to any. To him, you either listen to him or get lost..

Before the civil war started, awolowo went to meet him that war wouldn’t be the best way for his aspirations to come true. He told him there are more better ways to go about it and it will become a success without any stress. Ojukwu acted like he had listened, told Awolowo that he won’t go on anymore with the war..

Awolowo left back to the west, but before reaching, Ojukwu already started attack on Nigeria soil! Pa. Awo was surprised!

I’ve always said this that if Ojukwu didn’t attack the west, there wouldn’t have been a war. It would have just been Ojukwu VS FG. Them for just give ham the same treatment him & Ironsi have boro! Attacking the west is what spoilt the whole thing!

Like i said in my first post on this thread, whatever omission or commission Ironsi may have made concerning Boro and his ‘Niger-Delta Republic’, is for Ironsi and his military council to take responsibility for! Leave Ndigbo out of your mouth!
