The evil that man planned was prevented and we are alive today and kicking.

Children of hate are now grown up with a Nairaland Account.

For how long will you people continue to be petty and brainless.

Lets forget the past and move forward.

You would think some people learn from their past?

Yet they say experience is the best teacher.

I hope warmongers will see these pictures. Wars do not produce winners. We are all losers in any war. Human life is sacred.

Just as the jews survived the holocausts and got their Israel, Igbos survived and will get our Biafra

Just like they did back then, they were merely using those poor kids for propaganda purposes and to win/sway sympathy for their cause. Even Ojukwu himself admitted that much on record.

Haha
'weep not for us but for your children and children's children'

Pics like this only fuel the quest for Biafra but you guys are too daft to know that

This time the west won't support Nigeria against Biafra cos the marginalization has even been voiced out by your so called president cheesy

My children will be fine, trust me. And their children's children. I doubt you can say the same for yours though, unless like Kanu (who is beating the drums of war) you are also abroad, coz if the next war comes, you best believe it will be fought on SE soil again. It will be just like deja vu.

So why always on Biafra threads with threats

Don't u know what would've happened in that war if the west didn't support Nigeria

Thank God Buhari already told the west that he's out to marginalize, so e go hard Nigeria this time without the western support

@your comment, I say Amen

Propaganda was the only weapon they had.

Even Cyprian Ekwensi admitted to it when discussing all the fables about 5000 Biafran children dying daily.
Despite all the propaganda, relief never came. In the end, surrender was their fate.

It's very obvious that the Igbos are still very bitter about the war of almost 50 years ago.

As a lover of one Nigeria, I'll still love to see the Igbos put their act together and do the needful to exit the "zoo" peacefully.

I won't want to witness a situation where there will be another massacre of innocent citizens of Igbo descent just because of some of their senseless leaders who don't know how to achieve their aim peacefully.

For God's Sake, you have reps and senators, governors and Obis. Why not call a national Igbo congress and address the issue of Biafra there; and whatever common decision reached should be tabled to the NASS, the presidency and the international community?

I don't actually like to live in same country with a people filled with such hatred borne out of a war their leaders senselessly took them. Did their leaders think wars are tea parties? Just take a look at Iraq, Syria, South Sudan and Libya before you make a catastrophic move.

Name Just one

Buhari just took a $2.1billion loan to rebuild the north but on the same trip threatened to marginalize Biafrans

And people like you are paid to defend whatever he says including such an international disgrace

What a shameless country

Actually, Awolowo offered them food and other relief, tons of food , to help alleviate their hunger but the Biafran soldiers cornered the foods and shared it among themselves and their own families, thereby exacerbating the hunger in their land.

Please tell us what would have happened ooo?

While at it, tell us what would have happened if the likes of Marc Goosens, Rosen and the other mercenaries were not fighting for Biafra and training its unfit soldiers?

Honestly I don't even care about what the great Awo did or did not do for them. Ingrates will remain ingrates.

These are the same people who said they'd rather have weapons over food.
Yet they cry over food like babies till today.

What would've happened is what is going to happen any day nigeria declares war on Biafra again


Kanu is not calling for war but self defence
if Nigeria calls for it, they'll get what more than they bargained for. This is 2015 for God's sake. West won't support u again

You guys keep putting words in his mouth

Hold up. But I thought you guys have also been at the corridors of power since after the end of the war? Why didn't Ekwueme, Noi, GEJ them agitate for your own $2.1billion? Or have your reps and governors been smoking Akamu in Abuja all these while? ?
