There was a world wide protest by those who support Trump and those who dont support Trump. It was only in Nigeria that unarmed people were killed, why?

Am bored but this makes me more bored.

What concerns trump victory with Nigeria.
Did they protest when PMB won.
Smh for them.
I suppose this is democracy. People can stand for or against anyone. Why the killing?? The same protest was against Trump in Washington DC and other countries of the world. How many of them were killed? It will do you good if you remove sentiment in your judgement.

Thank God you said use to be.but not anymore . Ireland used to be UK . Ukraine use to be Russian .
What just happened is a reminder to IPOB and thier likes that Rivers has nothing to do with Biafra . We support them but we are not part of it.So the best thing to do is keep to thier 5 core Igbo state .
If Imo state decides it does not want to be part of Biafra are the IPOB members going to force them??don't you see where I'm coming from.

Sorry bro, Biafra is not an Igbo only thing like you may have been led to believe. The last president of Biafra, Geberal Philip Effiong, was not even an Igbo man. The word Biafra is atrached to the 'Bight of Biafra' which communties such Ijaw, Ogoni, Ibibio live along. Those people are even more Biafra than Igbos.


The place you are calling Portharcourt city was only given this name by the British in 1912 in honor of the then colonial minister, Lord Vernon Harcourt. Before then, the original name of the place was called 'Igweocha'. Every Igbo man can tell you what this means. So cure your self of ignorance

We get all the history likewise may places in Nigeria and of the world
The fact of the matter is 2017 there is a state called Rivers and a city called PHC . They don't want to be part of Biafra . Is that so hard to comprehend ?
If IPOB like they should also go to warri to protest there thier wallet will go missing . B4 army will wish them to Cont a inert in Koko
The governor of Rivers state Issued a statement long ago No IPOB rally in Rivers after the last time.
PS.all IPOB members as of today are IGBOS . No Ikwere , Ijaw,Itshekiri , Urhobo etc.Don't 4 hat speak volume ?
The Cross Rivers , Rivers , Bayelsa , Delta and Edo have thier own struggle . It's called Niger Delta and Biafra is not part of it.

Oh now I understand you............ so they are Nigerians because Lugard said so, they are Rivers because Gowon said so, it is Portharcourt because the Britush said so, it is Niger Delta, which is not even in the constitution, because Abacha said so.

So when do the people get to choose who they are?

You said they are not interested in Biafra? Did they elect you their spokes man? How do you know what the Igbos, Ijaw, Ogoni Ikwerre all want? If you think you know what they want then support a referendum like IPOB wants so that everybody can choose who they are rather than giving people useless names like Rivers, Niger Delta and Porthacourt. All these names came from Britain and are not African.

The Governor of Rivers can issue any statement he likes but as long as he has no power to ban the constitutional provision of freedom of expression, freedom of movement and freedom consciense, he should shut up.

You talked about Igbo? Learn not to talk outside your ethnic group. There are several ethnic groups in the south of Nigeria, they can speak for themselves. Dont attach to anyone in the name of a non existent 'Niger Delta'. What you should do is support a referendum let everyone decide what they want same as IPOB wants.


But once you start saying you know what Urohbo, Ijaw, Ogoni, Oron, Ogoja etc all want, then it is you who is looking for trouble
Re: Senate To Probe Killing Of IPOB Members by benodic: 4:02pm On Jan 25, 2017
The senate yesterday condemned the alleged killing of 11 members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital last Thursday by security agents. This is just as it mandated the Senate Committee on Police and National Security to institute a full scale investigation into the killings.

The resolution of the senate came through a motion by Senator Mao Ohuabunwa (PDP Abia North) on the gruesome murder of members of the Indigenous People of Biafra.

Senator Ohuabunwa who came under order 43 of senate standing rule bordering on personal explanation drew the attention of the senate on the incessant killing of members of the group, The lawmaker condemned the act of the security operatives as barbaric and lawless, adding that members of the group were harmless and innocent.

He said, “On Thursday 11 people were killed and 26 injured for no just cause, Mr. President , we are in a democracy and people must differ in opinion, that is the beauty of democracy, the killings is one to many , it happened in Onitsha, Aba and now Port Harcourt, it behooves on us to call the security operative to order.
very interesting. after nearly one week?

So are you speaking for Ijaw and Ogoni? What concerns you with them? If you really cared about Ikwerre or Urohbo or any minority in the south of Nigeria, you will support that they be given a voice to decide their destiny. You will support that there be referendum so everone can decide their fate. Dont know know that referendum is the best way for everyone in Rivers to reject Biafra forever with the power of their votes? But if you are saying that nobody should be given a voice, that nobody should be given an opportunity to decide their future through a referendum then what it means is that you are an enemy of your people. You dont really care about them.

In my experience, people who are afraid of referendum are those who know what the result will be. If there was a referendum, more than 80% of Rivers will vote Biafra, that what scares you.

So as you can see, you dont care about the minorities, you dont care about what the Ogoja, Oron, Ananng, Itsekiri, Ibibio, Abi, Legbo and what the over 40 tribes in the south of Nigeria want. If you cared about what they want, you would want to hear them out, you eould want them to have a voice. It is a very rare thing for any of the minority tribes to have a say in Nigeria, so when someone like you claims to be from the minority but you cant even support a referendum that will give your ethnic group and other minorities a say, it means two things

Its either your just another Yoruba guy in Ibadan claiming to be one of the minorities (there are many of them here) or that you are an enemy of your people and you dont wish them well.

I listen to radio Biafra most nights, I know how much the minorities are calling in, lamenting about Nigeria. The other day, part of Radio Biafra was in Urohbo language. Many Urohbo people calling in and pledging support for Biafra in Urohbo language, lamenting that Nigeria has stolen all their oil and Gas money. I dont even understand Urohbo but listend to the English translation and learnt that blood means the same word in Urohbo and Igbo. Few days later, the broadcast was in Ibibio language which I dont understand. There were many many callers from Akwa -Cross who called in to suppport Biafra. Many of them proud that their son was the last president of Biafra. Some of them fought on the Biafran side said they had no regrets since Igbos were the closest tribe to them.

Many Ikwrres now call in apologising like the prodigal son, some saying their parents decieved them. Ijaws call in and even Ogoni. Everybody is saying the same, that they are tired of Nigeria.

But it is you who says Biafra is only for Igbos, it is you who cannot support a referendum for the minorities which you claim to belong to, it is you who doesnt care what other minority tribes want, you dont even care about their right to self determination. It is you shouting Rivers and Niger Delta but cant say anything about how these peoples life will be better inside Nigeria.

Guy, get a life. This struggle for freedom has gone past small fries like you.

Diranged souls, why dont you set o ut a pole on here to prove a point, just do it let us see howmany Ijaws and ikwere people will support IPOB match in PHC instead of wasting the little time you got freedom out of your SHOP on line.
The Only reason you lot will find it hard to attain Biafra is cos of your small coconut brain, so from you first lines, Im yoruba all of a sudden if I do not support Biafra,....By the way, I never said I dont support Biafra stop shifting the goal post, I siad the peoople of rivers and others I have mentioned are not part of Biafra but we wish you well in getting your Biafra.
Urhobos called in to say they foght in the civil war ahaha go ask your father history again. In the town of sapele there is a pry school called Crowder near teh market, More than 100 Biafra soldiers where burried there during teh civil war, these where biafrans cought fleeing from benin via sapele by the sapele people.Go and also ask your father cos it seems you are to young to know waht the war was about, ask him in Sapele, what use to be the name of the road now called Okpe road.it was Igbo road.it was changed during the civil war and there was such a thing called IGBO domination back then,these people where over joyed when federal troops came in,They just ask you to pronounce toro, which is half a pound back then, the Igbo man cos of thier mother tongue cant,the Fg troops know this and it was how they measured who is urhobo or son of the soil and igbos,FYI My grate grand father is from Sapele and I have solid roots from there too,You know you lot Igbos you all come from the 5 igbo states and you think you know jack shyte about others.
