Or all of a sudden history is no longer palatable to you guys that have spent the last 10ys dishing out your lies.

Well, we will not forget your own atrocities which you are all hell bent on repeating.

Even looking at the madness that the likes of Gentile de Yahoo unleashed on his own people in Orsu and Okigwe should give you an insight on how evil and barbaric your Biafran agitators are.


If they can commit the most atrocious acts on their own people, what will then do on us in the SS?

That's why it is very important to never forget what your people did because it gives us a glimpse into what you are planning to restart.

jaxxy:
U are a funny guy but i know ur agenda, i know what the apc ronuu are trying hard to do but it is dead on arrival

U left ur people at the mercies of the fulani bandits to start a campaign of calumny against the igbo's and trying to steer up ancient hatred for people who are united to driving the iragbiji fraud outtt of office and back to his village after showing nigerians shege promax.

U will not forget what happen in 1960 but u will forget the fulani bandits that are kidnapping and beheading ur people in ur presense

DomPerignon:
So we should forget the madness of your war generation which you all want to restart again?

And whose Yoruba ?

jaxxy:
Retart again how? Are igbos attacking anyone are is not not fulani bandits ravaging ur people from kwara to ondo to ekiti to ibadan and soon lagos?? U have allow ur tribal bigotry to blind u from reality happening to u and ur people to pursue 1960 matters Big shame

Fulani bandits have declared war on yoruba land oya face them if u can.

DomPerignon:
My friend your agenda is the same exact thing with that of the fulani .

The fact you even cheer on the ongoing genocide and population displacement of Palestinians exposes your intentions.

What of the latest IPUB lobby calling in Trump to come and create your Biafra with the entire SS annexed to it?

You think we are fools ?

nony43:
Why did they attacked MW region?

Irony1:
Show me the order that Ojukwu gave to kill 19 federal soldiers. Again it is war if it is soldiers Ojukwu orderd to be killed then it is not a war crime. Again you have still not shown any documented evidence of attacks on Efik, Ibibio and Ijaw communities and how they were able to identify that these were biafran forces when they didn't even know their insignia because biafran forces were taking clothing and weapons of Nigerian army. Also it is important to note that Alabi-Isama admitted in his book that they carried out numerous false flag operations on minority areas in Biafran colours to sway opinion of minorities against Biafran army

Mbanda:
Point of correction, we Igbos love ourselves. Your lies and propaganda was as a result of what I call "state sponsored terrorism" and, Lagos Ibadan gutter press were the tool they used to propagate the lie you are telling us now.

We are not daft we know exactly what happened in our land. They made it like IPOB and Esn are terrorists.

WizardOfNG:
Yet they will always insist they are victims and all others are villains.

Magnetic010:
Beacuse you people used my people as human shield- it’s why up till today nobody from anioma(expect stupid Ned Nwoko) will ever identify as Igbo- from Agbor to Umunede down Asaba you(Biafra) used my people as human shield…Forget the stories, we lived it, my parents lived it, and they told us the stories-it was pure horror.

ekitimanalways:
Your demand for specific evidence is justified. The research chapter “The Forgotten Victims: Ethnic Minorities in the Nigeria-Biafra War, 1967-1970” documents Biafran persecution of the Efik, Ibibio, and Ijaw peoples, who suffered “persecution, molestation, injustice, psychological torture, and other forms of suffering.” Ojukwu’s revenge-framed order—not a war crime in isolation—signals intent to escalate violence, a contributing factor to war crimes. However, I haven’t read Alabi-Isama’s book to verify his alleged admission of false flag operations.

Airlord2030:
Where LZAA at

Irony1:
I read that write up and there were lot of holes in the dates they claimed the incidences occurred. The dates they mentioned at that time the federal army had driven the Biafran army away from that territory. Also for them to say this it lends credence to Alabi-Isama's confession in his book that the Nigeria. Army carried out false flag operations in minority areas using Biafran colors to cause hatred within the minority areas.

Mrexcell:
Which atrocities did biafrans even commit in the south south u are talking about here?

ekitimanalways:
Before the Nigerian Civil War, Eastern minorities—such as the Ijaw, Efik, and Ibibio—felt marginalized by the Igbo-dominated government of Eastern Nigeria. Fearing political domination, they pushed for a separate state, which led to the Willink Commission’s inquiry in 1957 and growing demands for self-determination. So the Nigerian army did not make them hate the Biafran soldiers.

Regarding Alabi-Isama’s account, his book does not record any claim that the Nigerian army carried out false flag operations. However, he did admit that Biafra’s greatest blunder was the invasion of the Midwest—a region that was not part of Igbo territory. In my view, Ojukwu’s greed and expansionist ambitions were the main clandestine reasons he dragged his people into a senseless war.

A few days ago, I watched a BBC documentary on Biafra and the Nigerian Civil War. A woman from one of the minority ethnic groups in Nigeria’s South-South region described how Biafran soldiers attacked her village, burning and killing her blind grandmother. Her grandmother couldn’t escape because she was blind. That was a war crime.

newnigeriannew:
Their plan was to make MW region part of the funny biafra, which is even Portuguese name.

The name Biafra is from a 16th century Kingdom in Cameroon around the Atlantic coast. Portuguese explorers named the curved Atlantic coastline from the Atlantic Ocean tributary called River Nun (in today's Bayelsa) to Cape Lopez in Gabon Gabon as the Bight of Biafra.

Mbanda:
Why is it that you lots (including rose bassey) don't like talking about the Asaba massacre?
Those people that were murdered in Asaba by Nigerian army are they not humans?

Besides, how do we know that, it was actually Biafran army that did that?

gidgiddy:
The name Biafra co.es from the biggt of Biafra which was the name of coastline of the Eastern Region, and was indigenous to the area

The name Nigeria was invented in London by a white woman

WizardOfNG:
Grow up.

kedeojo:
dont you think that is why south south don't want to join Biafra movement. our brothers and sisters in the present day rivers, bayelsea, cross river and akwa ibom saw shege in the eastern region region unlike Edo and Delta in western region.

Mrexcell:
All these are just useless made up propaganda name one community in the south south where it was documented biafran soldiers massacred 100 civilians in just one day?

DomPerignon:
You have come again with your Upper-Iweaka pseudo intellectual revisionist nonsense.

Well, this your version of the origins of Biafra is still better than other Ibo pseudo intellectuals who claimed it was coined from two Ibo words : Bia and Fra in a bid to claim the waters and entire coastal areas along the bight as Ibo territory.

FYI, the word Biafra originated from the name given to the adjacent Atlantic ocean.

The original name being Bight of Mafra and it was coined by Portuguese slavers who had a rallying port off the coast of Cameroun which they named after a Portuguese city, Mafra.

On early Portuguese maps, it was shortened to Bi.Mafra just as island will be written on maps in shorthand as Isle .

Over the years, these waters came to be known as Biafra !

Your entire perspective on history is flawed.

Irony1:
Oga I can bet 100% that you never read Alabi's book. Again even the Willink's commission report which I bet you never read before stated that all the claims of marginalization were not substantiated and lacked merit.
Again Ojukwu had no expantionist agenda in fact the blunder of Victor Banjo by halting in Ore and settling the division in Benin was the problem. Note that Ojukwu asked Banjo that "what are you doing in Ore" that halting of the advance made the Nigerian army regroup and go on the counter offensive.

gidgiddy:
Did you miss the part where the same woman said that Adekunle ordered the summary execution of people from her own tribe?

ekitimanalways:
Let’s not reduce this to “who read what.” Debate the facts, not my library.
The Willink report didn’t say marginalization had “no merit”—it said specific claims weren’t fully substantiated at the time, and it recommended safeguards precisely because they saw potential problems. On Banjo: yes, the halt was costly, but Ojukwu’s question shows he wanted Banjo to push on, not that he lacked ambition. So we actually agree on the military mistake—just not on the politics behind it.
