That your moniker is Amaechi does not make you an Igbo man. So Stop this divisive comments.
There is no way everybody will support biafra, what matters is majority votes.

mind you, not all British voted for LEAVE
Britain voted themselves out of Europe with just little over 51% majority.

I don't believe in what you believed, that is why I am not an Igbo. You never can tell if we may had any dealing together today. There are more to life than you see it. An intelligent agitator would put his reasons forward to convince the other person, than to rain insults.
Just last year scotland voted to remain in the UK.

We want you out!!
You want to go, we are 101% in support, you evacuation from Yorubaland is long overdue
Your Biafra blackmail has completely turned against you, an average Nigerian, not the politicians want you out already
We don't need to pursue you, your YES decision will pursue you out naturally

You want us out by shooting every protester who agitates for Biafra?
You want us out by locking Nnamdi Kanu illegally so he will shut up?

Go tell it to the birds grin

Why asking, let the polls speak.

Do you really think anyone down east wants to see cows pooing around their house and trampling on their crops?

Do you think any eastern businessman wants to stand by and watch incompetent buffoons messing up big time on economic policies while their business suffer?

Do you think we love this quota system and government of mediocrity?

Let them print the ballot papers first.

Every nation is a product of the people. If you do yours and I do mine this very nation will be better. We have abandon our civil responsibilities and watch the those who has been representing us from east to play the card of ethnicity and bigotry just for their selfish interest. Now the table has turn against them, they remember Biafra and restructuring. They should restructure their attitude towards our public funds and fight for our interest not theirs. When you don't support their selfish desires they brand you all sorts of names.

Shey Biafra does not include Delta, Rivers, Akwa Ibom and Cross River?
You mentioned four states with different ethnic nationalities. Each ethnic nationality have their say. You can only speak for yourself and to some extent your ethnic identity. Only a referendum will bare people's minds. If you are fifty in your village and 26 vote for exit, you have no option except to relocate to Daura if you are not pleased with the results . It's a free world, not by force

It's noteworthy to categorically state that Biafra encompasses south-east, south-south, and part of middle belt!..and not only "south-east", we are part of Biafra(Delta state). Please take note!

Sorry sir, but you are part of a dying generation of Nigerians who think you can confuse the masses with your half truths and lies. Sorry once more.
The truth is that the representative of the Igbos cannot do anything, no, not in this lopsided country where everything is functioning up sid down. The whole laws needs changing like yesterday and the north and west wil rather die than change the laws.

The only better option is an exit from Nigeria.

Thank you Sir but please remain on topic. Do not let them use the divisive lines to confuse us. By the time we get a referendum, everyone who wants to join Biafra can join. But for now. We need a referendum.

Is this your reason why you want Biafra? Should any younger fellow ask you why do want Biafra, should this be your response? Very unfortunate.

I have always known that one day the sun will rise from the east it will only be delayed and can never be denied great countries always encounter genocide .eg. Israel, USA, South Africa and so forth. Biafra has always been my home, religion everything. The referendum shouldn't be hesitated. *one love to all Biafrans.

30 % potentials. My brother between 1994-2001, Aba and Onitsha were known for shoe and belt production. People come different countries to buy. But some us who romance their way to corridor of power liaise with the power that be to lift the ban on the importation of those items to that they can import from Italy or Spain for quick turn over. Aba and Onitsha industries went under.

it may surprise to know that when west were busy offering scholarship for the children to school to reshape their future, most our parent would prefer her wards to go and learn trade for quick money.

It may surprise to note that during ObJ leadership, the Igbo were strategically place in most ministry as minster, we did not complain. But for 16 years, Enugu- Onitsha road did not receive attention. Rather, our political class were busy struggling for oil and gas business in Sao tome etc.

Our brother prof bath Nnaji from Enugu state- Minister of power was at the verge of solving the power issue, but our own from SS/SE due to their selfish interest muscle him away. The rest is history.

My brother, remember our region is land lock and most of people has invested outside the Igbo land. How would survive is the bubble show burst. God forbid. The early 60s to 70s is different now. Let ask our leader to tell us the truth and face good governace with the little we have and gunning for the big and fail completely.

Buy and selling from china or outside country will not grow your region, r

Totally in support!!

What most of all want as opposed to the useless noise, blackmails and ultimatums being dished out per second by pro-biafrans.

What people don't understand is that this clamour for biafra and Nigeria's handling of it is like two persons spoiling for a fight. The party who's all too aware they'd get a real bloody nose would act all aggressive, pushing and lurching forward as they are being restrained by a "peacemaker". But soon as the peacemaker decides to give way so both parties could slug it out, you see the aggressor develop an instant cold feet because they know the outcome of the rumble would be devastating for them.

If Nigerian government shows the slightest resolve to organise a referendum, I'm very sure the calls for it would start dying down.

I really don't think these guys wanna leave, they are simply using it to blackmail the government.

I pray we find the will to organise it so we can put this stuff behind us once and for all. Enough of the crap already.
you are still looking for the will? Keep looking for it you will soon find.

I love the way u have hijack this thread but i cannot help but pity u.

U remind me of a kid who grew up calling his mother boyfriend daddy, only to find out that he was never his dad or father.


The only difference is that unlike the child, u are not innocent. U set urself up for the greatest disappointment of your life.


If ur behavior is exactly how yorubas behave, then even Oduduwa Rep would be a curse.


Nigeria as governed by Buhari is falling aprt.


Things fall apart.
