[color=#DC143C][b]Insult the Igbos the way you like but this storyteller, though with intention to smear the Biafrans of 1967, has inadvertently contradicted the fake stories you chaps have been circulating all around the media that Igbo soldiers invaded the Mid West and r@ped women and killed innocent civilians. From this story you can ascertain this fact about the character of Igbomen even the hardest one alive;
- They have respect for respect for women. Have you ever asked yourself what would have happened to the innocent woman if she encountered a Nigerian soldier of the Yoruba or Hausa extraction? It would have been worse for her than the plight of the defenseless Igbo women violated by the Nigerian troops. At least, the Igbo general was diplomatic enough to make negotiations for her womanhood, you never can tell if it would have led to marriage. And to think that the girl came in the guise of a Sister and aligned with the opposition when she got what she wanted also speak volume of the traits of some group of people I won't be mentioning. The Igbo man saw her as a sister but the lady had bad intentions. And the story said 35 Biafra soldiers were killed when having their press conference not face to face in battle. So you can see how the anti-Igbos have been implicated and Igbos vindicated. smiley

instead of you to confess that an ibo man sold the entire biafra project because of toto, you are here writing long epistle that no one will read. grin

Point of correction! I never mentioned igbo. As far as I'm concerned Biafra is different from Igbo.
[color=#DC143C]Oh are you now in harmony with the 'land grabbers'? What happened to 'Biafra starts and ends with the 5 SE states'? Since you have joined the pro-Biafra movement by saying that Biafra is not Igbo, I withdraw my statement. smiley
I'm not a Biafran anyway but I don't think that those agitating for Biafra don't know what they're doing.

Its true that Biafra starts and ends with the 5SE states but not all SEasterners are in support of the struggle.
And its true those agitating for Biafra knows what they are doing, I mean less than 10% of them, the remaining 90% are just following the band wagon.

Meanwhile, buoyed by the confidence from early success, the Biafrans went on the offensive. Their B26 (one of the six originally intended for use against the Nigerian Navy) was fitted with multiple canon and 50mm calibre machine gun mounts. It conducted bombing raids on Makurdi airfield, Kano and Kaduna. Luckily for Nigeria, the two transport DC3s had gone to Lagos to get more reserve mortar and 106-artillery ammo. In Kano, there were no fatalities, only a slight damage to the wing of a commercial plane. Kaduna, however, was not that lucky. On 10 August 1967, the B26 dropped bombs on Kaduna airbase, damaging many buildings and the main hangar. The German consulate in Kaduna confirmed that a German citizen, a Dornier technician tasked with maintaining Nigerian military planes, was killed and two others injured. A week later, the senior traffic control officer, A.O. Amaku, was arrested for sabotage. He was accused of failing to shut off the airport’s homing device, thus giving the Biafran plane navigational assistance. His British assistant, Mr. Palfrey, was similarly suspected. He resigned and immediately returned to the UK. However, Major Obada, the airbase commanding officer and an Urhobo from the Midwest, strongly defended the accused. The daring bomb raid provoked many more Northern civilians to run to the nearest army base and enlist to fight.

According to a report by US Ambassador Elbert Matthews, cabled to Washington on 3 July 1967, unidentified men tried to bomb the police headquarters in Lagos on the night of 2 July. They attempted to drive an automobile into the compound, but the guards did not open the gate. They packed the car across the street near a small house opposite a petrol station. Leaving the car, the men fled and within seconds, an explosion took place. The house was demolished and all its occupants killed, but the petrol station was unaffected. Eleven people, including some of the guards at the police headquarters, were injured. Two hours later, a second explosion, from explosives in a car parked by a petrol station, rocked Yaba. This time, the station caught fire. The ambassador remarked: “It is possible this is a start of campaign of terrorism…public reactions could further jeopardize safety of Ibos in Lagos.” And sure it did. A Lagos resident, who visited the police headquarters after the attack, told the Australian ambassador “Ibos must be killed.” There was panic all over Lagos. Anti-Igbo riots broke out. Northern soldiers at the 2nd Battalion Barracks in Ikeja used the opportunity to launch a mini-version of the previous year’s torture and massacre of the Igbo in the North. On 7 July 1967, Lagos State governor, Lieutenant Colonel Mobolaji Johnson, condemned the bombing in a radio broadcast. “A good number of Igbos in Lagos is innocent and loyal to the federal government. It is only fair that they be allowed to go about their business unmolested so long as they abide by the law and are not agents and evildoers,” Johnson said. He called for Lagosians to join civil defence units and for Easterners to come and register with the police.

So Biafran troops used Chemical weapons as far back as 1968, this fable kinda gives credence to the claim that Igbos are the most industrious and technologically savvy people in Nigeria.

If you don't agree, tell us the country that sold chemical weapons to Biafra.
Chemical weapons have been in existence for more than 2 decade before but I won't blame you since you don't even know what 'chemical Weapon means.

Without arms what did you do?

The girls were told to go to the Biafran troops and get for us some arms and ammunition. And everyone they brought, we paid for it. Remarkably, they did. There was one girl, I saw her a few months ago and she is now an old woman, she brought twelve rifles and about 20,000 bullets. I said to her, how did you get these? She said somebody organized a get together, so she attended and incidentally, the leader of the Biafran troops was interested in her.

So, she told the man, I don’t want any money from you, my brother wants to be a hunter and wants to kill elephants, so I need weapons and ammunition to do this. The young man said that is simple, he was a major in rank. So, he told her to bring a taxi, and it was in that taxi that they loaded the rifles and ammunition. So we started.
Biafra soldiers gave out their riffles and bullets to Bendel girls in exchange for pusssies and bobbies just as Boko Haram kill themselves for 70 virgins in their imaginary heaven. Can anyone see any similarity? And these are the miscreants that wants to fight the Nigerian Army, maybe we should ask Biafra soldiers to first go and test their strength against the Fulani herdsmen.
