Well said, sir.

Numerous ethnic nationalities make up the space called Nigeria. As such, we should live together as one only if we are all ready to achieve a harmonious and homogeneous unity. Otherwise, each and everyone should follow a different path, which is not a bad thing in itself.

I have always advocated for one Nigeria because I don't want us to be divided, disunited and in opposition to one another. But it seems those who should be making movement for unification are always treading the path that further divides us. They preach unity on the one hand, and hold dagger on the other. It's almost as though we live in perpetual chaos. Boko Haram today, Fulani herdsmen tomorrow. And just when it seems like the dust is settling, religious crisis and tensions build out of nowhere. Leaders with foul mouths let them run like taps.

It would be difficult to make a meaningful life in all of these. Because such things inevitably end in conflicts between the various nationalities that make up the entity.

Nigerians are strong, stoic people. Otherwise this marriage would have ended a long time ago. We have endured a lot of hardship and put up with too many excesses of the oppressors.

Whoever tells you that the Igbo man has no reason for wanting out isn't speaking the truth. People now distrust and mistrust the Fulani man whom they hitherto considered harmless, and rightly so. I mean, people literally get slaughtered in their farms and homes for no just cause. Who'd take that?

In my world, when someone wants out of a relationship and you want them to stay so badly, you have to change your ways and invite the dissenting voices to air their grievances.

However, in Nigeria, everything is fire brigade. Charlie Boy has his reasons, which is great. But dissenting voices must be given listening ears, lest we all perish. Give them the peace and progress they seek or allow them to chart their own course. We cannot continue like this.

Cut this crappy insecure mentality for once... What do you mean by real Igbo and fake Igbo?... Anyone who aligns with your position is real and others are fake?... Right from time, the word 'Igbo' has alternatively been spelt as 'Ibo' in several literature. Only insecure people struggling with self-esteem issues suddenly see this as a grievous or demeaning offence.

FUCKyouALL:



shut the hell up.. It is IGBO not IBO. I-GB-O that's the letter words. Got that? Whenever you see IBO it is erroneously spelt. We have fake Igbos so shut up and face your lousy tribe

Nnamdi Kanu, nna, make we issue ultimatum to CHARLIE BOY.


It is sad, Biafra has no leaders. That's why they adopted Saraki, Fayose & Dino Melaye who are ALL AFONJAs as their gods

ChetaNwaeze:
Charles Oputa aka Charley Boy, an Igbo man, has opposed the agitation for a Biafra. Instead of we Igbos to engage Charley Boy and other Igbos like him who have all denied Biafra, we are busy insulting the great Yoruba race. Does it mean Charley Boy is now an Afonja?


What has the Yoruba's even got to do with Biafra? Why cant we Igbo's leave Yorubaland alone and come back to Igboland if we truely want a Biafra country. The way some of we Igbos use to behave make me concur with BBC World News when they say Biafrans are criminals

ReachHard:


"Igbo enwe Eze"

Weselion:


Nwannem I tire oo.... They hate Yoruba's but like like Yoruba land. People that don't know what is worrying them.

Every year you see people trooping from the east to the west and north. You begin to wonder, is it this same people that are complaining that Nigeria does not favor them?

obailala:
Shut the hell up too and go deal with your lousy inferiority complex mentality... I'm an Igbo man and even if the spelling is I-G-B-O, I dont see any big deal or feel offended if it's spelt I-B-O by anyone. I am way way bigger and smarter than taking offence in such frivolous nonsense. So shove your nonsense low self esteem issues up your ass...

And regarding the silly ideology that there's something called fake Igbo and real Igbo, that's pure evidence of your pathetic self esteem problems.

Dreambeat:
It's your God given right to support or not support Biafra.Brexit was not supported by every Brit, today Britain has left EU.You are just one person with one vote in a referendum,many more others support Biafra.We all know that you are protecting you business interest like many of your kinds are,but just ask the federal government to allow a referendum,then you will see how much you are in the minority.As for me I stand with BIAFRA.

wristbangle:
This is one of the reason to showcase the fact that IPOB youths possess demented brain. Even Charlie boy with his twisted mentality spoke against the useless agitation. What a sad day for them.

nextstep:


You are right. But what has stopped Igboland from being the economic powerhouse of Nigeria? Why hasn't it developed to the level where there's no reason to migrate to Lagos (or China)? Igbos talk of marginalization, but it's the same Igbo leaders that have (like all Nigerian elites), pocketed funds meant for the public good. Is it these same leaders that will suddenly make Biafra a great country? If one cannot manage a state and make it great, how will one be able to manage an entire nation?

FUCKyouALL:


are you done squirming? If not then continue. What is far sure is, you are not a real Igbo boy, you don't know squat about Igbo. Keep wailing and crying little baby and if you get offended enough, go and suck a dick

FUCKyouALL:
and lastly, you are a low life. Even wikipedia sees IBO as a name erroneously used by non igbo speakers, but you as a foolish fake Igbo boy is here to rant nonsense. You are a big fool who has a long way to go. A stupid political refugee like you residing in the east and that makes you an Igbo man? FU:CK you and FU:CK your Ideology

pazienza:


Are you Igbo? The answer to this question is very important and would determine the answer you will get for your above ill thought post.

I am and I concur with that post.

"Scotland is a constituent part of Britain, the 5th
richest nation in the world. Despite all the
advantages of Scotland being part of Britain, they
still agitate to leave Britain. Why? The answer is in
one word, sovereignty. The OP is talking about
Nigeria, far below Britain, why would the Scots be
even thinking of seceding from the 5th richest
nation on Earth? And not just Scotland, elements of
Northern Ireland want to leave too and join their
kith and kin in the Irish Republic. If our own
colonial masters can contemplate secession, then
who are we that they brought together to say we
are indivisible?
The question of Nigeria breaking up or the reasons
why it shouldnt break up does not arise. Our
colonial masters Britain voted to leave the EU, the
single largest market in the world and the richest,
who are we to question their democratic decision?
It is theirs to make.
The same should be applied to the issue of those
who agitate or are agitating to leave the Nigerian
colonial contraption called Nigeria. Im an Igbo
man, I dont deny that the activities if the colonial
masters helped to unify the Igbo nation that used
to be a scattered cluster of confederations, but that
is no longer the point
The point is who wants to continue being a
'Nigerian' and who does not. Despite the huge
potential of Nigeria as the largest black nation on
earth, it should the decision of its constituent
people to decide if the want to carry on with it
same as our colonial masters, Britain, allowed
Scotland to decide and will still allow them to
decide again in 2018/19.
People can argue the pros and cons of Nigeria
being together or breaking up from now to eternity
but unless we accept that it is the ultimate right of
the people to decide. We must trust the people to
decide their fate rather than trusting Lugard to
decide it for us. If the people are denied their God
given right to decide their fate, then it all means
that Nigeria is an instrument of bondage and it will
never work".

Let the above sink in, if truly you are Igbo, like you claimed.
