The older generation fought but stopped fighting
That was their undoing
They should have regrouped, reorganise them selves and relunch their fight again couple of years after their first fight
Remember the saying
"He who flee's from a fight lives to fight another day"
South sudan did this
They sustained their fight for up to 30yr
What was the result
They freed themselves from their oppressors
The ANC of south africa stopped fighting and went the diplomatic route
What was the result
They did not free themselve completly from their oppressors
Same with Ireland
Biafra wants complete and true freedom not some diplomatic type of freedom
This they know they can only achieve by fighting in otherwords taking their freedom by force
The current generation now are fighting the fight their parents didn't succeed in so that their own children will not have to fight this same fight
Because true freedom must have to be achieve for them to live in peace as a people
So the earlier the better

Eziachi:
I don't do emotion. You have right to disagree with me anytime. We cannot agree all the time.
60s is different from 2015. In the 60s, only legitimate governments sell arms. This days you can buy any sort of arms you want within days, as long as you got the cash to pay for it.
Your opinion on the Chinese is flawed. Biafra don't need Chinese military support, what' I was talking about before is moral and diplomatic support, the Chinese will not support Biafra because it puts at odd with Taiwan in diplomatic circle.

Shymm3x:
You don't ask diplomats for their support, when you're hawkish and you run a radio station that spews nothing but hate and bile. Also, what can Biafra offer external powers cos nothing is free in international politics? See, right there, next to Biafraland, there's a big cash-cow called "South South" that can act as a catalyst to get most foreign powers behind Biafra. That's what Radio Biafra ought to preaching - the similarities that existed among folks from the old Eastern region and how everyone can form a great alliance - based on equity, accountability, and autonomy for all the groups from that region in a new country.

Foreign powers don't need to get involved to stop you - they'll just provide Nigeria with the required weapons to annihilate you, and turn a blind eye to it, with total black-out in the press.

Nah, the West gave South Sudan freedom cos of the oil in Darfur.

Eziachi:
We stop fighting to preserve a human generation to take the fight in another fashion across the finishing line.

Few more years or even months of fighting would have resulted in world's first successful hundreds per cent genocide.
Ikemba left, so that the issue will no longer be about him, to allow us to recover without having to worried about the possible outcomes his death in the hand of Nigerians would have done to our psyche forever as a possibility, being the face of Biafra.

Moses took the ancient Israel across the red sea but it was Joshua that led them into their promised homeland. Of all the nearly a million that crossed the dry sea bed of the red sea, only 8 out of them entered the promised land.
The war in the 60s wasn't really about freedom, it was mainly about survival in the face of little alternatives, but we knew when to stop. Things are different today and the world is equally different from those of my time.

omonnakoda:
The problem with the Biafran agitation is that your folk have no plan.Why all these nostalgic talk about arms.Why demonizing Yoruba.Yoruba have no need for you folk in the same country that is the truth.However if you want to break away you must follow due process. That means getting your elected representatives to unite and speak with one voice.How many of your 5 State Houses of Assembly has ever passed any resolution.? At any rate what has been done to test the popularity of the idea objectively among your folk. Certainly 100% do not buy into but are those that do even in the majority and by HOW MUCH. The loudest are not always in the majority.These are things that need to be measured and when others see you measuring these things(There is no law against that) they will take you more seriously. Starting a radio station and calling everyone name is just like drawing obscene graffiti on toilet walls. How many of your senators have voiced an opinion on the subject.
Let us arrive at a point where you can say to the whole world " We have tried to hold a legitimate plebiscite on self-determination and denied by the Nigerian Government" that should be the first step before talking of weapons and war. However if you belief that war should be Plan A then you are in manifest error and very far astray

Eziachi:
You are very correct, we have the zeal but little plan. But I can assure you that it's changing, though slowly. In the time past, it use to be regarded as something for the Okada riders and trouble makers.
But now, the middle class are slowly coming in. I was in the US recently for the world Igbo Congress. I must say that am miffed by what I saw. A far cry to what I witnessed in 1999, when I last attended.
The senators or political elite does not count. Do not draw any sort of evidence from their actions or behaviour. They are scared of Biafra more than Nigerians I can tell you that for a fact.
My nephew is one of them. I do know what am trying to say.

GentleToks:
The Biafra struggle is not gaining any popularity anywhere my dear; the popularity only exist in the minds of Igbos. I presumed you live in the East.......

I live in US/UK and i can boldly tell you that there is nothing like Biafra struggle outside South East and few Igbos in Asaba. Tibet struggle is as famous as the apartheid in South Africa but the world is too busy to pay attention to that talk less of Biafra struggle.

I want you to be honest with yourself by looking at those Biafra demonstration pictures; those demonstrations held abroad and tell me those guys in pictures are not Igbos and their few friends.

If Nnamdi Kanu try all what he said on the Nigeria airwave in UK, it's 6 years imprisonment, I repeat, 6 years imprisonment without option for fine. The moment you instigate or incite someone to attack/kill in any format, it's 6 years minimum.

If you remember the case of 3 Muslims guys who shouted death to British soldiers about 6 years ago, they were sent to 6 years imprisonment.

Alex Salmon; Scotland independence campaigner never incited Scottish people against Welsh, English and Irish people in his pursuit or struggle for the Independence of Scotland.

The same thing applicable to Artos who is campaigning for Catalan independence in Spain. He never incite his people against Spanish people or government unlike Nnamdi Kanu.

Kanu ought to have been arrested before now but Nigeria is a country where anything is possible. If Nigeria could forward all his recorded utterances; the inciting words against other Nigerians to British government, i swear down, Kanu is finished just like this Niger delta guy in South Africa called Henry Okar(I don't know if that's the correct name).

omonnakoda:
So now you know war is not B ,,??

Brain and not blocos??

The truth is you folk lack discipline ,are overly sentimental and are too naive politically and the other players in Nigeria will always run rings around you.
Instead of dealing with reality you persist in the delusion that you are better than Northerners when all the evidence shows them to be centuries ahead of you in political civilization

Eziachi:
I don't think you are in the possible position to talk about lacking discipline or not be because can you say that you are talking out of experience.?
We are not perfect, far from it, but we have actually fought a war.
That's on record. The outcome is totally irrelevant and you haven't. And that's a fact

electrokcoi:
when Ojukwu died they think nobody will rise to speak for BIAFRANS but unfortunately to Nigeria MAZI NNAMDI KANU came, so let me make it very clear to Nigeria it is not about NNAMDI KANU its about the restoration of our land BIAFRA and for your information there are many BIAFRANS who are worster and also more intelligent than him so you have to be very careful.

Everyone dies eventually anyway





You can ask the first african slaves that came to america

Kanu wants to use his blood to awaken the Igbos to bravely face death in their match for Biafra.




Nigeria just made Biafra more popular in the eye of the world.



Sometimes the faster way to kill an issue is to ignore it. That Nigeria failed

Shymm3x:
One other thing: I think the three regions that made up Nigeria during the first republic are well structured countries that can thrive, albeit a few groups may have to change regions. That's what Biafra should be about - the old Eastern region and emphasis on the similarities they all share. And you have top reach equity and autonomy for all the groups. If you can go that route - it'll be easier to achieve Biafra or whatever name you want to call the struggle. However, shouting Biafra in a landlocked land, with little or no resources, and faux/vacuous/obtuse bravery - while alienating everyone won't get you lot anywhere. It's basically suicidal.

Also, Yorubas are the least of ya problems. The only reason why most Yoruba prefer Nigeria at the moment is cos they believe they're in an advantageous position than the other groups who occupy the country. The Hausa/Fulani might dominate them politically, but they're far ahead of Fulanis economically and academically. And regardless of how much noise Igbos make everywhere - Yorubas know they're still in a better space within Nigeria than Igbos will ever dream of. When you're in a non-achieving space like that - you always get carried away like the one-eyed king in the land of the blind. However, if Igbos were to leave Nigeria tomorrow - best believe Yorubas won't stop you lot, and the plan would be to leave the union as well. Unless you engage in the same adventure that was Ojukwu's Achilles heel and venture into their part of the country. A Yoruba country will always be greater than Nigeria and every sane person knows that. So, you lot also need to leave Yorubas out of all the hate you preach - and focus on fostering brotherhood with folks from old Eastern region. If you're ever going to get ya Biafra - South South holds the ace to that dream and you lot need those people.

oduastates:
Puuff.
Play or dance,
I can assure you of one thing, countries are never formed by drawing lines around where oil Wells are located.
There will never be a Biafra on the western side of the river Niger.

theDEVILisHERE:
There is nothing like south south (this literally doesn't even make sense)
There is only biafra ( you can check the documents the evil british signed when they first came to make a business deal in that part of the world)
They already existed as a nation (even before the british)
The biafrans are doing every thing to free themselves from the imperialistic slavery called Nigeria
Let the other groups do theirs
Remember each group has their different history with how they got enslaved within the contrapment
If the other groups are not ready
They should not disturb the biafrans from getting their freedom since they are not couragious enogh to do what's right for themselves

Shymm3x:
My use of "South South" is within the Nigerian geographical quagmire as a pseudonym for the non-Igbo groups that were part of old Eastern region. Obviously, I know the term "South South" doesn't exist in geography and you need to read my post clearly to understand the context in which I used the term.

Anyway, I would say whatever path you lot choose you achieve ya Biafran dream isn't my business. I'm just fascinated by the revolutionary idea behind it, and the humanity in me is just telling to speak on it, cos the whole thing looks like a suicide mission. You just can't like folks who look like you self-destruct, with the hopes of millions. Hence I had to dig deep into mental archives and try to posit certain things I read in the past about great revolutionaries. You know, a few years ago, from my late teens to like age 22 - when I was deep into black power and black consciousness - I had read books and watched documentaries about great revolutionaries like: Lenin, Karl Marx, Chairman Mao, MLK, Malcolm X, Noble Drew Ali, Fard Muhammad, Marcus Garvey, Sankara, Lumumba, Black Panther Party, Steve Biko, and Che Guevara. One story that struck me and I'll always use as a talking point (the story that moved me away from that path - though I'll always have a revolutionary mindset) was Che Guevara's adventure in Congo Kinshasa. And I think I explained what happened to him to you and FrankAba1 yesterday and, I used it to buttress my point.

I think before you lot embark on this adventure, all IPOB leaders need to read about all these revolutionaries and study them. Then pick up Sun Tzu's "The Art of War" and study that as well. Emotions won't get you victory especially when you're going against a bigger/larger opponent - patience will.
