Truth is, he is right. The only way Biafra can be
achieved is via war since most of its citizens call
for death or Biafra.
As much as I admire your post, I must confess that
it reeks of bias and subjectivism. Perhaps you
didn't know that top powerhouses were divided
between Biafra and Nigeria?
Nigeria was supported by;
USA
United Kingdom
Soviet Union
Bulgaria Bulgaria
Egypt
Syria
Algeria
While Biafra was supported by:
France France
Israel
Portugal Portugal
Spain
South Africa
Rhodesia (Presently unrecognized)
Tanzania

Biafra never really got military support from any of those nations you listed, only France gave partial half hearted military support initially but later withdrew the meagre support they were giving when the British threatened to arm secessionist groups in French colonies.

Israel was busy with their own war with the Arabs then to offer any one military support.
The rest there only gave moral support to Biafra, no military.

In contrast. The British gave full unrestrained military support to Nigeria and USSR also gave full Naval support to Nigeria.

thats why i like been on their threads,,,..they are sooo funny....if i feel down and lonely i just visit a biafra thread...

it always brighten my day.... ..confirmed..

if they wouldnt add the south south to biafra the ol time,i would just be having fun...

adding the ss the ol time is what pisses me off...

Efewestern:


I reside around that side, do you guys usually add private schools to it?, or just public schools? .. schools are on strike now I mean secondary schools in Delta state.

Depends on what you want to achieve. Generally, public schools are used mainly because they tend to represent a wider range of people.

You may use private schools if you don't have time to wait till the strike is called off but state it as a limitation of study.

Where did you pull these goofy stuff? France never supported Biafra because it was warned to stay away from British territory by the British government led by the Labor Party.

Israel could not support because it was besieged in a war of attrition by the Arab countries. Portugal and Spain like France were told to stay way from conflict in the British empire by the government in Britain.

The Republic of South Africa was under what was known as apartheid regime and was not welcome in any African affairs. Only one part of Rhodesia was an independent country thus Zambia which recognized Biafra. Like Zambia, countries such as Tanzania, Ivory Coast, Gabon and Haiti only recognized Biafra as country. These did not render any military help to Biafra.

There is video on YouTube on the Biafran war. A documentary from the Biafran Camp with over an hour duration on YouTube. I'm sure it would change a whole lot. Ciao!

Humour, me, please? Did you not mudsling someone on a thread for being Ijaw sometimes last year, claiming he was pretending to be Urhobo because Ijaws are known to be land grabbers, according to you?

So Ijaw is 'understandable' today while Urhobo and Edo is laughable? Good grief!

This one couldn't even keep up with why I called them laughable. Heya poor thing.
I even mentioned the reason multiple pages back.

Urhobo and Edo are laughable because the IPOB you've been screeching about, the leader aka Nnamdi KANU have NEVER classified una as Biafrans.
When he was in the radio, the tribes he spoken as biafra have been ijaws, ibibio, efik, Igala, idoma, etc hence it's understand if they speak.

The tribe he does not want screeching about the most is laughable to me considering since last year, the people whom have been shouting against Biafra have been predominately you people. I recall last year how many attention seeking threads you urhobo opened speaking against Biafra and I recall how many times several pro-Biafrans stated you aren't wanted.
Hell trust me, I know in few months coming up, I bet all I got that we would see yet again another urhobo attention seeking thread regarding biafra. Bet me on that!!

Politics is not for emotional filled people like your kinsmen.

Russia is no longer a world power. They only have a strong military and weapons of mass destruction unlike during the days of the soviet union where America had nothing on USSR, both economically, world political influence and not just military wise, and both were considered equal worldpowers.
Today, even smaller countries like Japan, South Korea, UK, France and Germany are faring far better economically than Russia with a greater world influence. Imagine!

Majority tribes loose more than the minorities.
Do u know that if all northern minority groups decide to abandon Hausas, the so called mighty Hausas would be reduced to majority in only 5 states of Nigeria? Hausa is now arguably the most spoken language in Africa because northern minority groups adopted it too just as Russian language was dominating and spreading over Europe and Asia during the days of the Soviet Union but today it's power is seriously dwindling.

How could you guys say that France or any of the country tries I mentioned never supported Biafra just because they immediately had one engagement or the other?

Let's cut to the chase, there are many journals and publications online explaining the role of France and the other countries. If Radio Biafra has been telling you that Ojukwu got no help from external forces, then let me be the first to inform you that it is telling lies.

I am presently reading a journal of Spain in the Nigerian Civil War and both of simultaneously came up with 'France went on a tea break, while South Africa went clubbing'.

At least if journals would lie, videos won't.

This is the best thread I've seen in a long time.

See them killing themselves for minorities wey nor even send una message.

Nigeria is really a complex mix of comedy.

IPOBians are the highest clowns.

I'm happy this thread proved all my issues to be true.

If there is another civil war, God forbid, Nigeria
would not only suffer the casualty. The other side
would receive more blows than Nigeria itself.
Ojukwu never wanted a peaceful dissolution and he
thought he had everything all mapped out until he
saw that the odds were in his favour, which
prompted him to flee to Abidjan.
Trust is, Biafra too would get the support of other
countries. Don't be surprised that a particular
country try might be selling weapons to both. After
all, it is profit first before allegiance.
It is either you have your cash at hand or trade
with other means you have.


Ojukwu went to Aburi to secure peacefulresolution of the Biafran issue, Gowon scuttled it and reneged on all agreements reached at Aburi, replacing them with Decree 8.

Ojukwu always called for UN supervised referendum in all parts of Biafra, the minorities areas mainly. Gowon again declined, preferring war instead.

Only mischievous dishonest beings driven by innate rabid case of Igbophobia accuse Ojukwu of not seeking for peace but war.

Gowon and his ilks also felt the war would have lasted few months in 1967, they never considered Eastern region a formidable foe, but we know how that turned out. Today it's going to be hard to use tactics like starvation of civilian populations and bombing of market places and houses full of women and children to win the war like Gowon and Awolowo did in the 60's.

Nigeria won't get away with fighting dirty.

No such support came from France or Spain. Whatever journal you are reading that says otherwise is trash.

France initial support was too meagre, it was like a drop of water compared to the ocean Britain was giving Nigeria,,and it wasn't long before the stopped entirely.
So, if someone said France gave no support, the person is right as well.

Iceland seceded successfully from Denmark peacefully. Czechoslovakia divided peacefully into Czech republic and Slovakia. Examples abound of peaceful dissolutions of countries.

"He said in the memo that Gowon had given too
much away in Aburi and that it would lead to the
destruction of the country. He further added that
Gowon had “legalised” total regionalism which
“will make the centre very weak.” Akenzua alluded

"In an authoritative and detailed memorandum on
the background, cause and consequences of the
Nigerian civil war issued in November 1968 by
more than sixty British subjects, including Sir
Robert Stapleton, the last British governor of the
Eastern region( 1959-60), it was concluded that of
the 37 percent of the population which they
estimated that minority group represented in
Biafra, only 10% would favour continued
association with the federal government". The.
New York review of Books, Volume 14,Number 8.
April 23, 1970



"The unprecedented mingling of all groups and
settling of many minority people in the Ibo
heartland during the course of the war was simply
taken for granted. Nonetheless, the Biafran regime
was unreservedly committed to plebiscites in any
disputed areas within Biafra, or on borders, so
that people involved could determine their
allegiance. It was proposed that these plebiscites
be conducted under international( UN or
O.A.U)supervision, and with adequate safeguard
against punitive retaliation
The federal government rejected the plebiscite
proposal, obviously because it implied the
recognition of Biafra and the substitution of a
democratic vote for force of arms. Had the
plebiscite been held, a ceasefire would have had
to be declared, neutral observers would have been
on scene, and the secession would have been
revealed as a people's movement". The New York

This is shameful coming from you. Apparently you don't know more than what you hear over the radio.

In 1953 when Northern Nigerians were beginning to consider secession from the Nigerian colony that would soon be a nation, Nnamdi Azikiwe gave a speech before the caucus of his political party, the National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroons (NCNC) in Yaba, Nigeria on May 12, 1953. That speech, while not disallowing secession, suggested that there would be grave consequences if the Northern region became an independent nation.

I have invited you to attend this caucus because I would like you to make clear our stand on the issue of secession. As a party, we would have preferred Nigeria to remain intact, but lest there be doubt as to our willingness to concede to any shade of political opinion the right to determine its policy, I am obliged to issue a solemn warning to those who are goading the North towards secession. If you agree with my views, then I hope that in course of our deliberations tonight, you will endorse them, to enable me to publicize them in the Press.

In my opinion, the Northerners are perfectly entitled to consider whether or not they should secede from the indissoluble union which nature has formed between it and the South, but it would be calamitous to the corporate existence of the North should the clamour for secession prevail. I, therefore, counsel Northern leaders to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of secession before embarking upon this dangerous course.

As one who was born in the North, I have a deep spiritual attachment to that part of the country, but it would be a capital political blunder if the North should break away from the South. The latter is in a better position to make rapid constitutional advance, so that if the North should become truncated from the South, it would benefit both Southerners and Northerners who are domiciled in the South more than their kith and kin who are domiciled in the North.

There are seven reasons for my holding to this view. Secession by the North may lead to internal political convulsion there when it is realized that militant nationalists and their organizations, like the NLPU, the Askianist Movement, and the Middle Zone League, have aspirations for self-government in 1956 identical with those of their Southern compatriots. It may lead to justifiable demands for the right of self-determination by non-Muslims, who form the majority of the population in the so-called ‘Pagan’ provinces, like Benue, Ilorin, Kabba, Niger and Plateau, not to mention the claims of non-Muslims who are domiciled in Adamawa and Bauchi Provinces.

It may lead to economic nationalism in the Eastern Region, which can pursue a policy of blockade of the North, by refusing it access to the sea, over and under the River Niger, except upon payment of tolls. It may lead to economic warfare between the North on the one hand, and the Eastern or Western regions on the other, should they decide to fix protective tariffs which will make the use of the ports of the Last and West uneconomic for the North.

The North may be rich in mineral resources and certain cash crops, but that is no guarantee that it would be capable of growing sufficient food crops to enable it to feed its teeming millions, unlike the East and the West. Secession may create hardship for Easterners and Westerners who are domiciled in the North, since the price of food crops to be imported into the North from the South is bound to be very high and to cause an increase in the cost of living. Lastly, it will endanger the relations with their neighbours of millions of Northerners who are domiciled in the East and West and Easterners and Westerners who reside in the North.

You may ask me whether there would be a prospect of civil war, if the North decided to secede? My answer would be that it is a hypothetical question which only time can answer. In any case, the plausible cause of a civil war might be a dispute as to the right of passage on the River Niger, or the right of flight over the territory of the Eastern or Western Region; but such disputes can be settled diplomatically, instead of by force.

Nevertheless, if civil war should become inevitable at this stage of our progress as a nation, then security considerations must be borne in mind by those who are charged with the responsibility of government of the North and the South. Military forces and installations are fairly distributed in all the three regions; if that is not the case, any of the regions can obtain military aid from certain interested Powers. It means that we cannot preclude the possibility of alliance with certain countries.

You may ask me to agree that if the British left Nigeria to its fate, the Northerners would continue their uninterrupted march to the sea, as was prophesied six years ago? My reply is that such an empty threat is devoid of historical substance and that so far as I know, the Eastern Region has never been subjugated by any indigenous African invader. At the price of being accused of overconfidence, I will risk a prophecy and say that, other things being equal, the Easterners will defend themselves gallantly, if and when they are invaded.

Let me take this opportunity to warn those who are making a mountain out of the molehill of the constitutional crisis to be more restrained and constructive. The dissemination of lies abroad; the publishing of flamboyant headlines about secessionist plans, and the goading of empty-headed careerists with gaseous ideas about their own importance in tile scheme of things in the North is being overdone in certain quarters. I feel that these quarters must be held responsible for any breach between the North and South, which nature had indissolubly united in a political, social and economic marriage of convenience. In my personal opinion, there is no sense in the North breaking away or the East or the West breaking away; it would be better if all the regions would address themselves to the task of crystallizing common nationality, irrespective of the extraneous influences at work. What history has joined together let no man put asunder. But history is a strange mistress which can cause strange things to happen!
