moscow37d:
So recent Biafran protests have got me thinking, but I have been skeptical about airing my views because of perceived reactions.

DISCLAIMER: THESE ARE PERSONAL VIEWS, AND I, IN NO WAY CLAIM SUPREMACY OF KNOWLEDGE. FOR THE "GREYS" WHO THINK I AM TOO YOUNG TO SPEAK OF THIS SUBJECT, PLEASE PERMIT THIS CHILD TO SPEAK, THEN CORRECT HIM IF HE IS WRONG. FOR IGNORANCE CAN ONLY BE KNOWN IF IT IS AIRED, AND CAN ONLY BE CORRECTED IF IT IS KNOWN.

My points are as follows:

1. According to worldometers the median age of Nigeria is 17.8, hence an "average " did not experience the civil war.

2.This is the age statistics of Nigeria as at 2014 is as follows:
0-14 years: 43.2%
15-24 years: 19.3%
25-54 years: 30.5%
55-64 years: 3.9%
65 years and over: 3.1% (indexmundi.com)
In simpler statistics 93% of Nigerians were 5 and below in 1967.

3. According to Wikipedia, youth age range is between 18-35. Hence no present day Nigerian youth saw the civil war.

My first question: since over 90% percent of us neither saw the civil war nor participated actively, and our youth were born 10 years after the war, where is all the hate and agitation from?

4. The major driving force of Biafra is the igboland, but the Biafran map includes states like Cross river, Rivers, Delta, Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom state. This makes Biafra a culturally diverse state. I am igbo and i currently live in Akwa Ibom state, and we share no similarity in custom or language. How then can we live together as "one Biafra" when we can't tolerate the cultural diversity of Nigeria.

5. The Igbo tribe would become the majority tribe in Biafra, while the others who constitute the oil producing states hence the 'rich boys' would become minority. "How can the wealth most especially that from oil be distributed, when the majority is in power and the minority have the resource?"
So therefore, a time may come when the "minority" may decide to be free, because no man wants to live in another man's shadow.

6. Igbos are generally regarded as traders, and the lifeblood of their markets like Onitsha Main market and Ariaria international market is found in Lagos seaport where most of the goods come from. In Biafra, Lagos becomes another country hence tax and import/ export levies would increase drastically and logistics would become more difficult.
The other option is to trade via the Calabar Port, Delta Port or Rivers Port at Port Harcourt, and Onne. These ports are only found in the non-igbo states, hence another potential challenge.

7. What happens to Biafrans that have their livelihood rooted deeply in non biafran states? What happens to the igbos that constitute the majority of Alaba international market?
Would naturalization take place or would they liquidate assets and return to Biafra and start afresh?

8. Finally, the question of rulership. Who rules Biafra?
Currently, most Igbo people especially those in Abia and Imo state are dissatisfied with the condition of their states. They complain of bad government, massive looting, poor infrastructures etc, and they are currently ruled by Igbo governors.
If Biafra is formed who would rule then?
I believe it would be the same people that they complain of, and as you can see the cycle of pain and complaints would continue.

Problems are fixed by inward reflections not outward projections and blame shifting.

PLEASE BEAR WITH ME, FOR A CHILD WHO DID NOT SEE THE WAR HAS SPOKEN

Shut up and sod off if u have nothing to say

AmazonKindle:
when biafra comes we will filter people like you from biafra land

Stay off my mentions.

emmaec:
why shooting them naa.and please my igbo brothers this is not the right way to this .lets us wisdom and not violence

Be practical and stop this self-deciet, what wisdom do you suggest? The type they have been using since 1960...mtcheeewwwwww

XBLadez:

Hahahaha! Comedy of the hour! Which Boko Haram are being dealt with? And tomorrow you'll still read a news of their attack in the north. Joker

So how come Boko Haram has not declared a Northern Caliphate state? Why do we have Nigerian elected governors in every Northern state? Use your head yamirin, you are too slow. Walahi.

FisifunKododada:


Nobody wants war. Its should be a last resort. However, no sovereign nation should tolerate treasonous acts. And this is why we spend money to build a military. So that when we have to defend the sovereignty of Nigeria against enemies, foreign or domestic, we will get to work. Peace is for IPOB to denounce Biafra and embrace fellow Nigerians. War will be inevitable if they continue to stoke the fire of disunity and discord.

Ok, your resolve is noted....then we stick with the later...next

My brother am happy for this post of yours, whats the essence of war, when after all the destruction it will all still end up on the negotiation table.Please let us preach more of this than all this hate sermons.We are one.

freshness2020:
I am Igbo.
I don't believe in war.
I believe in cordial negotiations.
War can never be the solution, but are my people ready for this!

Say no to Bigotry...

Zinicc:


You never can tell where I am, buť like I told you...I am doing what I can.....be rest assured

so we start counting d number of dead! So who and how many next?

They wl open their markets flooded wit fake products when hunger visit them. Y not their big men ask for d release of d criminal if they support biafra. Biafra is a scam, biafra is a fraud.

Kyase:

Hopeless and jobless fellows

basilo101:

Yeske2:
Who cares if you edit my post, all we know is that 99.9% of Ndigbo had spoken and you ain't significant, is Kanu out yet? I'm listening to ya silly radio station but na music, seems Uche Mefor is busy.

Oh, you're listening to Biafran radio? that's nice! Because a certain news from that radio will be the cause of your death soon

Zinicc:
Every reasonable Igbo person should wake up and lend his surport to IPOB youth now in any way he can to encourage those who are willing to risk there lives to actualize this life long truth to continue this fight.
As for me I shall continue to credit their account monthly.
My tithe is to the IPOB!!

Pls, Stay off my mention if you are not IGBO!

nice!!!

ifeanyi83:
Look at their faces, you will see they are all jobless folks. I wonder when these people will start reasoning with their heads. The folks that call for these protests should go and bring their children. Such arrant nonsense.

hahaha I laf in french
so you have job and your on nairaland fast forwarding your life because of biafra
oya you wa get job on nairaland

Nigerian police are good and equal to Nigerian barbaric way of life. #keeponnigerianpolice. #shootatsight.

So this was the protest that prevented me from doing all that I was supposed to do toady

Mumu, what's my business with your northern caliphate and who declares it? In your earlier post you claimed you were dealing with Boko Haram, but today they had a whole village in Bornu on the run. Where were you then?

Hw many guns and cutlasses do you see there? But you heard one person was shot dead and all you can say is this? Go and confirm whether you are really Igbo.

Nigerian government should let these nuisances go! Theirnew Biafra would be landlocked and they should be ready to forfeit their property in other Nigerian states! The south south will still remain a Nigerian territory and let anambra,Abia, Imo and other sout eastern states go to Biafra! But they will never Lord over the south south minorities!!! Their territory will be landlocked and will have to pay heavy taxes to have access to the sea ports in the Nigerian state! Why should Nigeria care who governs Biafra, let them go please!!!

I don't join issues with myopic and parochial people, i exchange words with people that are objective in their analysis because i have over grown ethnic /religious bigotry.
