I agree with the OP.
The Biafran movement as represented by IPOB, need serious rebranding.

You're an slowpoke.
The radio Biafra movement has attacked the UK, attacked half of the US government (democrats)..the half in power, attacked the catholic church and attacked every group in Nigeria.

Now that Kanu is in prison, the same followers are sending messages on twitter to UK parliamentarians and US senators to 'act', and with the #1 mobilizing force in Igboland (Catholic church) cited as an enemy, where is the strategy?
If you like praise UK they won't support Biafra the way they didn't support Israel in the 40s



So forget this your ideal



Britain is the last country that will seek to see truly independent nations. cool

Do you know that Britain opposed the establishment of Israel.


Even God is against the injustice thrown at Ndigbos.



If Nigeria fails to change, she will collapse. cool

Uk will have no choice when this agitation reaches it's peak.

2015 is not 1967. The west including UK have gone a long way in 'marketing' ideas such as democracy, freedom, equality, self determination etc to the world, any attemp to deny Biafra this will be seen by the east and the rest as double standards and hypocrisy.

In an event of was uk might no longer help Nigeria. Our oil is almost becoming usless to them owing to the global fall, they couldnt even provide aid to NA in our counter insurgency campaign. Also illegal weapons suppply is easier now than ever. UK know even if they stick out their neck to help nigeria, any cladestine support of biafra by another power could jeopardice their efforts
God bless you.

You can't cheat a people for long without God rising up to help them once they kick start their uprising.



Ikengawo should know that Israel's independence was sabotaged by Britain but failed because of God.

Noted. But atleast, let's tone it down with the insults against Britain.

They won't support us, but let's not give them reason to want to stop us.

Britain is not going to help Nigeria like she did in the first Biafran war, her citizens wont agree, the war in Iraq is still sour on their mouth, no British government can get away with the way they handled the first Biafran war, today. Not in this age of internet.


Yes, if we wait long enough, Nigeria is going to collapse on itself, the Zoological republic was built for self destruction and has been on that course for decades now.

But we need to facilitate and fasten this self destruction,we can't achieve this by dissing a the world super powers.

There may be a few things that the 'radio Biafra movement', as you call them, may be getting wrong but one thing that can't be taken away from them is that they've been very successful in exciting a renewed interest in Biafra and in recruiting an increasing number of people from all walks of life, both at home and in the diaspora, who otherwise would have remained indifferent or even indignant to the issues of Biafra at this time.

I think that all who believe in Biafra should for now give Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB all the support we can, first because the other options out there are not really that better and also because even with all his imperfections he has been able to achieve a lot more for the cause than any of his co-agitators like Uwazurike or Onwuka did before him. I believe that when Nnamdi Kanu is done or forced to retire, another will pick up the baton. And perhaps from among his new recruits will emerge the right man for the hour.

But while we await the man, let us be mindful of the saying; 'show me a perfect man and I'll show you a liar'. . .

Israelis attacked the British with weapons.


It was the Israelis that indirectly taught the Arabs how to get things their way through terror. cool

The fact is


If Nigeria fails to see Igbos as fellow country men, this nation will collapse.



You can't hold back freedom.



To me, Nnamdi has being successful so far because he speaks the truth which lots of righteous people fail to say


God is permitting KANU because Nigeria is not fair to the Igbos. cool

That's not how it works. Let the Radio Biafra people come up with a solid and sound strategy outside of attack attack attack. IF they want to attack Yoruba and hausa I support, but why attack the catholic church when the catholic church was originally pro-Biafra? They have even attacked the whole of Africans as a race.
You were making sense when you started but you lost it and started sounding exactly like the tactless bunch you were criticising. You started off well by criticising them for senselessly attacking the UK, US, the church and the entire Africa, but then you turn around to say you support their senseless attacks and hate preaching against Yorubas and hausas. As long as the foundation of ipob's campaign is built on hate, hate and hate; attack, attack and attack, then the movement is as good as useless noise.

If Yorubas and Hausas keep opposing Biafra at the same time refuses to treat Igbos well, that hate speech will capture the hearts of many and turning them to determined freedom fighters

You're not well if you believe the Republicans and Democrats don't make foreign policy decisions together LOL. This isn't Nigeria where one party will come and cancel everything that happened before it LOL.
Is what you're saying making sense? It's great to court senators in the US and that's all i'm advocating for, but they prefer Obama over some Nigerians.

That's like someone convincing your mother to come help him beat your father. Are you mad?
You are talking rubbish!

Whether republican and democrat senators make foreign policy decision together is not the point.

The point is that I'm disputing ur claim and lie that IPOB is now begging UK govt,US govt and democrat senators to assist in releasing Nnamdi Kalu.

You lied,you are a liar so what nonsense are u talking about?

IPOB doesn't need to beg anyone, but will Biafra operate without a single living ally?
The only person I've heard praised on there is Ghaddafi. Does that make any sense to you?

In Kanu's eye he will court the republicans because the democrats are islamists? This is totally stupid. I'm telling you how the US works and you're arguing. The Democrats support Israel, and Republicans support Israel. The Democrats are against Iran, the republicans are against Iran. America isn't a disorganized zoo where one president will to to pilgrimage to Israel and the other will give a speech to an empty room about Palestine. So the idea that Kanu has about Obama being 'against him' and the republicans being 'for him' is childish and insane.

were we expecting Britain to come to our aid yet we were insulting their govt?.

were you expecting us to adore Obama and his satanism yet we christians and the children of light?

Britons are not stupid like you who side your leaders whether they are right or wrong.

Ask yourself why they are yet to shut down Radio Biafra or Biafra Tv.

Ask yourself why they still collect returns and taxes from Radio Biafra and Biafra Tv

the nonsense letter been peddled about by Sahara reporters is meant to make dolts like you think they are wise.

You expect them to support the freedom of biafrans when they oppose the freedom of the Scots? Have you heard them openly or discreetly support the freedom quest of the Palestinians

Buhari openly supported the freedom of Palestinians who are violently attacking the Israelis and should be made to know what it also means for biafrans.
As in ehn, if you're looking for big time mumus, don't look far. This people are the epitome of mumurity. You'll even hear some say Israel will come to their aid against Nigeria, really? Will you guys just wake up already? huh

Survival in Nigeria is like a rat race where everyone goes out into the field to scratch out a living for himself and his own people. Expecting yorubas and hausas to treat igbos well is like expecting your COMPETITORS in a game to struggle, win the price and then hand the trophy over to you on a platter, that's a childish expectation and it's never going to happen; and YES, they are COMPETITORS not ENEMIES. The earlier we begin to see and treat them as such, the better.

From history, there are not many freedom fights or separations which were achieved through hate mongering except it shall involve a very bloody war. Nnamdi Kanu knows this very well, hence he has continued to embrace the hate mongering approach and totally discarded the option of peaceful separation. I'm sorry to say this but that is far from WISDOM.

Igbos are NEVER going to fight another war and Kanu's approach will only stir up unnecessary hatred and create problems for igbos living peacefully across Nigeria. I am yet to see any sensible igbo elder who approves of Kanu's diabolic methods. I am also yet to see any COMFORTABLE Igbo man living outside the southeast who also supports this violent and hate based approach. If Ipob cannot get the full backing of all igbos, i wonder how it intends to succeed.

Once upon a time your forefathers said the same about the British and Christian crusaders. But here you are praising Yahweh as the one and only god. There is no god, it is just an ideology. Which colonial masters doesn't know when they come for you it is certain you must fight back? They are coming for the future generations not you dumbfvck, You will fight back definitely but your children will grow up to love and worship the one and only true god Allah smiley. Whatever the young is trained to believe in they would grow up to even love it even if it is a stone. Wait till we separate, The Fulanis must get to the Atlantic ocean. That's the sad reality of how nations get their territory, from USA to UK to France and even China. We all migrated from somewhere anyway, the lands belongs to the strongest smiley.
IT'S BEEN 50 YEARS SINCE THE BRITISH LEFT AND FULANIS DOMINATING AND ENGINEERING THE NORTH AND SW POLITICS. WHAT'S STOPPED THE STRONG FULANIS FROM TAKING EASTERN NIGERIA AND ISLAMIZING IT? REPUBLICANISM IS FULANI'S GREATEST HEADACHE THAT'S WHY THEY'VE FAILED RATHER WE ARE THE ONE CONVERTING SOME OF THEM. MY VERY GOOD FRIEND FULANI CHRISTIAN, HE ATTENDS AN IGBO-LED CHURCH.

The support for and against the OP is actually bore out of the love for the same struggle which is greatly admirable.
Like i always say Nnamdi Kanu had to appear radical and rebellious to been taken seriously by Biafrans whose struggle has been exploited by miscreants.
I have to say that OP opinion is very sound especially with the advert of Nnamdi Kanu's arrest which has greatly publicized biafrans struggle to the world.
You don't cut your nose to spite your face, While its paramount to expose to the world/remind the Brits

1.) The the fraud committed by Luggard and Flora shaw, along with the illegitimacy of the entity Nigeria which of course had the backing of the British government.

2.) The atrocities committed by the Nigeria state Against Biafrans with 200% support of the british government.

3.) That after a progrom and war that claimed over 3 million lives, no single war criminal has been charged or convicted till date.

4.) That they British find it hard to support people fighting for there freedom.

While British government might decide to sit on the fence on this one ( quite unlikely though, i expect there 100% support for Nigeria) they might actually decide to go all out to work against you.
If Radio biafra cease to attack other nations who are indifferent it could be a receipe for disaster if they decide to work against you.
