a man without principles can't lead any noble cause. The guy tru TAN campaigned for GEJ n when they lost the 2015 he started singing Biafra n spreading insultive hate speeches n uncouth lies . came into the' zoo' illegally with illegal weapons . what a leader!

imagine...this guy was even ready to fight the nigerian-army...

a army that has fought in the 1st and 2nd world-war.........extremly hardend warriors with enough weapons to level a ol city....

imagine...

Progressive01:
Yes, they said the FG was very foolish and played into the hands of Kanu. Said his arrest has earned him international fame. I been just dey laugh.

I was one of those who said this also,I overestimated the agitators and underestimated the fg

EastanPower:
Nnamdi kanu was very tactless in his so-called agitation. What was he thinking when he stepped into Nigeria(The Zoo)? Didn't he know that the Nigerian government would be out looking for every opportunity to arrest him? Buhari would have been seen as a very weak president if Kanu had stepped into Nigeria without being arrested. Buhari did what any sane president would have done to keep his reputation intact.

I bet he must have thought that coming into Nigeria would make him look brave but he failed to realise that there is a difference between braveness and stupidity.

When people want to fight with a sitting government they usually do so from outside the country but Nnamdi Kanu failed to understand this very simple fact.

Entering Nigeria was the height of stupidity on the part of Nnamdi Kanu and he might end up being executed.

He wouldn't be Ibo if he did not self-destruct in the attempt to show bravery. If he didnt return his fellow Biafrans would take him.to be coward Yoloba or illiterate Awusa. So he has to prove he is Biafran and risk it all. The more stewpid his action the higher his credibility on the streets of Alaibo.

zendy:
I don't think Nnamdi Kanu made any mistake coming into Nigeria. There's no way he could have claimed to be an authentic freedom fighter if he could not return to fight his cause. His coming and his subsequent arrest is why Biafra is one of the most hotly discussed topic in Nigeria. His coming back is why all major news stations from Aljazeera to CNN to BBC have talked about Biafra to their global audience. Kanu's return exposed Buhari to the world media as an unrepentant tyrant. There are many positives to Kanu return and the treasonable charges against him are just baseless

he comitted crimes in his struggle...

dsame greed concealed in their agitation is dsame reason they find it impossible to produce d president of nigeria.

d average igboman thinks he is smarter than everyone else.
"their smartness is akin to a naked man who thinks everyone is blind",the reality of such is d bitter fruitilage of mockery which they now harvest in their own "husbandry.

No, the average Igbo man doesn't want to share a nation with Northerners, Yorubas and Edos.

Does that make them bad people? No. Just as Germans not wanting to be part of UK doesn't make them bad.

How hard is this simple truth hard for the average Yorubas, Northerners and Edo people to understand?

#Adonis3HasSopken

Amen

my lesson is that I will never recon on IGBO support in my life

1. They support GEJ and he lost woefully

2. They support Wike and put him trouble until he came out to ban IPOB protest in Rivers after then he won in Supreme Court

3. They go against PMB and he won presidency conveniently.

4. The Support Nnamdi Kanu, for almost 100 days now the guy is still eating beans in DSS/Kuje prison upon all their ultimatum .

5. They support Agbaje and that ruined his chance to be Lagos governor.

NB: if they don't change their ways they are becoming more irrelevant in Nigeria Politics. South South are more relevant in government than them.

your insults are welcome.

umar745:
LOL na people Like una push am to him inevitable demise

Bros you don't know PentiumPro, she is a very pretty, beautiful, sexy and intelligent lady. She can never be IPOB or ipod.

So, the lessons to be learnt from all these is:

No method chosen or applied by Ndiigbo to form a nation independent of Yorubas, Northerners and Edos, will be acceptable to them.

It is naive for any Igbo man to think contrary, especially for Igbos who ramble like this: " I support Igbo secession, but I simply don't support Kanu methods".

Truth is, no method chosen for Igbo secession matters to Nigerians, their reaction to any call for Igbo secession, irrespective of any means chosen by the caller, remain evidently the same.

Buhari is applying one of the laws from the Book 48laws of power; ***************************************law 42 says: STRIKE THE SHEPHERD & THE SHEEP WILL SCATTER******************************** trouble can often be traced to a single strong Individual. If you allow such people to operate, others will SUCCUMB to their influence. Do not wait for the troubles they cause to multiply,DO NOT try to NEGOTIATE with them for they are Irredemable. NEUTRALIZE their effort by BANISHING or ISOLATING (not killing ooo) them and watch their sheep scatter.
***************************************
Buhari dey apply this law by isolating him in prison, lol and the heat seems to be gradually cooling off

If only it were that easy. A call by a people for independence can only be suppressed for a while but never forever.

Didn't you Nigerians think that the demand for Igbo secession was borne out of Ojukwu selfish agenda?

Ojukwu is dead yet the dream lives. The idea of Igbo existence outside the same political entity with Yorubas, Northerners and Edos is one that transcends generations, and will ever live.

It proved bigger than Ojukwu, and it's still bigger than Kanu, it's the movement of a nation, and is bigger than one man, Kanu like Ojukwu was only the tip of the ice berg, if you think you kill the Igbo demand by killing Kanu or imprisoning him, then you are mistaken, you only ended up increasing the resolve of the people and giving them more reasons to hate co existing with you lots.

ALISMILE:
So why aren't they clamouring for an ibo republic without attempting to lump along d SS! They want to repeat Lord Lugards mistake!

There is nothing called SS in the constitution. What you have are ethnic groups such as Igbos/Yoruba etc. so you have to call the people you are talking about by their ethnic names for me to know who you are talking about.

Maybe yes temporarily but atleast u can agree it has some effeCt. Will biafra agitation ever succeed, maybe. But is biafra state ripe for secession?,No!!! The time hasn't come yet to say biafra will be a success. I'm igbo too. Its not okay to keeping saying the fulanis are killing ourpeople, so we want to be alone. The question is what are our Igbo leaders doing for our people? Have we agitated @ the state levels before even going federal. Because my friend, if the foundation is weak of which it is, no structure built on it can last long. Agitation @ state level should be the ideal thing, when the system (infrastructure and all) is working fine for all in our state level. Then a secession would be favourable to all.

MyGeneration:
Oil or north if the country breaks Edo knows where they belong, its definitely not Niger Delta neither is it Biafra.. Do d math

Could u tell why Edo is not ND?

Kanu should have stayed in London jejely and be eating his hamburger,chicken and chips and be living but he bought a flight ticket to Nigeria and desperately wanted to prove himself a Mario,now it will be a very very very long time before he steps his foot back on London soil. With time ppl will become wary and tired of his news or case. He will be left alone ,while his Nigeria based agitators join apc ,pdp and other political parties and start enjoying themselves

Marcelini:
Biafra is ripe any time it's achieved. There is no knowing when it's ripe without agitation.

As for your suggestion of agitation at the state level. I agree with you, but how do we know that, if we don't put things to test first, like Nnamdi just did.

I can assure you that the next wave of Igbo secession struggle will start from even Local government level, as the FG become poorer with decreased ability to share free gifts to states, following continual deterioration of crude oil worth.

Only an Igbo bound by selfish interests or simply myopic that do not see that in the long run, an independent Igboland will fare better than one trapped in Nigeria with her barrage of unwanted baggages,

In speculation, most people thrive on optimism for success. Which is what you are doing. But a professional, mixes optimism with a healthy dose of realism. You are optimistic that the igbo land will be successful in the long , so am I. But you are not being realistic to what's on ground. The few igbos that have been living in the south-east, how well have they fared? How well are their governors treating them? This is the realistic part you are not mixing in. Look at the countries hoping to be independent, from scotland to catalonia or even texas. These states have something going for them, the standard living of their people is benefecial that immigrants even come over for better living. Be truthful, how benefecial is igbo-land currently to immigrants from neighbouring country like ghana? Don't let emotion cloud your sense of judgement my friend. And these are all european nation, in africa where one of our brothers decided to have a country on a shallow foundation, am tlking of south sudan. You can see the effect. Don't relyyour hopes of success in secession by looking @ european nations that have done so. Look @ ur own fellow african country coz we think alike in africa. The igbos have potential to become a great place, let our governors ,LGA chairmen and state leaders harness these potential. Let them attract investors to the states. Until our states start proving attractive for even those in diaspora, a secession today would mean building a structure or murky grounds

Kanu does have some balls however, coming to Nigeria. I give him that. I have no sympathies for him if the court dish him whatever punishment, not after watching that YouTube video. He should be 'activist' and honorable enough to take the consequences of his actions in good stride.

U SEners re wicked and selfish! D SS or ND is referred as it is whether or not u like it! U hate to see d NDers united! Whether or not u like it they will remain so!

spanishkid:
God bless you. Sometimes let's tell ourselves the truth. Millions of people where killed during the war in Rwanda, Sri Lanka, Liberia, Sierra Leone, and currently in Syria, where was the UN and the USA when it was all happening?

that is wat iPod dumb iPod youths won't understand. even if 1million iPod youths are killed in the protest CNN or BBC will not even carry the news. these guys are owned and controlled by the western media. buhari has been travelling all around the world building trust with these western powers.

Even with the unhealthy baggage that sharing a nation with bitter hostile groups brings to Igboland, available stats shows that Igboland has fared better than all other Nigerian groups, I speak not out of speculation, but out of facts and formidable stats and my absolute believe in the tenacity and success driven genes upon which the very fibre of the Igbo people is built .

Look out for the rankings for the attainment of MDGs in Nigeria, Igboland seats on top of that in Nigeria, there is no better way to measure how viable a sovereign Igbo nation will be.

Further more, look out for the stat for economic viability of all the Nigerian six geo political zones, SE came second only to SS, and also consider the fact that we have parts of Igboland in SS.

So, as you see, the argument of economic viability of present Igboland in Nigeria, and it's relationship to viability of a future Igbo independent nation is DOA.

Has these rankings or facts attracted igbos living in diaspora to comeback and settle? Or has it stopped igbos from migrating from east to lagos or PH or abuja in search of a better living on a daily basis. Whatever the ranking u may present, until people start coming back to the east WILLINGLY because of the attractiveness it now poses. The Igbo land has not gotten there yet!!!

Now why do u want ND to be lumped along wit u? Isn't that a repetition of Lugard's mistake?

First you ask of the condition of Ndiigbo in the SE, and you ignorantly thought they were worst than the rest of the country, but when slapped with hot facts and stats showing that not only is SE thriving, despite next to nothing assistance from the FG, she is ahead of the rest of the country on vital MDGs, but now you shift goal Post and ask why people are not willingly migrating to Igboland?


How is that of any concern to the Igbo man? Many Igbo sons are in Igboland doing well and uplifting the region, others are scattered all over the world, it's simply who we are.

When the Igbo gets a nation, our diaspora population will come in handy as they all bring their global expertise home to Igboland to help her grow, absent of the negative policies put in place by hostile and envious groups in Nigeria, it will be just like the diaspora Jews returned to rebuild Israel.

I watched the video too and shuddered at the audacity this man has.

A system that is setup to breed hatred, jealousy and distrust is bound to fail. And there is no force on that can stop an idea that has come to fruition.

Yesterday they claimed that the BFR struggle was an online affairs and that Kanu was a fraud enjoying life in UK instead of coming down to Nigeria to champion the cause.

Today the same charlatans are singing a different song of how Kanu should have stayed back in UK and not risked being imprisoned.

These people still maintained that the whole idea is a fraud by businessmen to fleece the gullible and yet Kanu has refused their enticement and inducements in prison and even opted to remain behind bars. The pitiable minions have continued to chant death to Kanu albeit out of the fear of what awaits them in the nearest future.

The powers that be have allocated huge amounts to hire agents for propaganda and fabrication of evil reports. They have done paid adverts using hired interest groups. This evil politics is bound to fail.

Indeed some people have no shame at all. Little wonder they are called integrity-challenged charlatans.

Edo man stop giving urself hope, even if Nigeria was to ever break, when igbos want sth to do with the SS we know the people we are referring to and its definitely not you people...
