Ipob Stop Embarassing Igbo's! by Nobody: 6:23pm On Jun 09, 2017
Several times, I have failed to understand how One group has grossly failed in diplomacy on its way to suicidal failure.
The Igbo ethnic group, one that boasts of numerous successful individuals at home and in diaspora, has been ridiculed by underdogs and switched into a laughing stock, by itself.
It is agreed that Biafra agitation has lived for over a decade since inception of this Republic, but never, did it become so widespread, until the most hated president unacceptable to the SE, rose into Power. BOOM!! Every child and girl in SE becomes a Pro-Biafran.
Kanu lacks ideologies, diplomacy and leadership qualities. Because I do not understand why, after raising his national profile on exiting prison, failed to meet face-to-face with traditional leaders of South-South, in order to reach a truce and formal agreement with their people, instead he goes about promoting maps drawn up by forcefully cutting in people's land without their consent, posting it online and calling it Biafran map. This has led to backlash, insults, deriding from peoples of SS; Ikwerres, Itshekiri, Urhobo, Ibibio, and several others. I believe if a formal agreement had been reached with their traditional rulers, there would not be any mud clogging the wheels of the secession movement.

In this Uyo I am in. I am tired of hearing "Igbo's will never produce a President in the next 20years, infact Akpabio stands to become it, before any Igbo man", from one Ubong. And I am not doubting the talks because just when Buhari would finish his 2nd term and handed over to SE, the SE blew the chances with their Biafra noise, now the baton seems to favour a North-Central next.

IPOB be wise and diplomatic!

This is what Igbo's lack,they don't analyse issues,just doing gra gra up and down. See as they've turned themselves to laughing stock.

Most reasonable Igbo's I know do not support this Biafra thing.You've just blown your chance of smelling the presidency for the next 20years.

Guy you are laughable. You are in a map drawn by a white called Lugard. You havent complained about the map a white man drew, you are complaining about the one drawn by Kanu?

The Igbos generally dont care any more about the presidency of Nigeria. It wont do anything fir us same as it didnt do anything for all those who held it before. As for those who say they not part of Biafra, they are mainly political office holders and their acolytes who are trying to protect their jobs in Nigeria

The real people who have fought, suffered and went to jail like Asari Dokubo will tell you any day that they are true Biafrans.

When a referendum comes, everyone can choose their destiny

True, at your last sentence. They are not getting right-the steps to retake Presidency after Buhari's second term, neither are they going it, the right way to Biafra. It is so shameful, what is happening to a major tribe in Nigeria.

You want Biafra, but do it in a way it would take longer to achieve(if ever it would be achieved).

So in your mind, south-south would choose to remain with the Hausas and yorubas? Eh? Oga landlocker.

Thats because Lugard did not consult anyone when he put us all in Nigeria. There is no need to consult anyone, everyone knows what Biafra is about. When referendum comes, you people in Uyo can vote to continue with Nigeria and allow those who want to exit to do so.

You don't mean it...Are you serious? You didn't tell me calabars and those from delta, bayelsa, rivers state made you their spoke man..
Tell us that first and we would take you seriously.

The IPOB thing is very senseless. Anyway, I place the blame at the foot of the present regime. They have succeeded in creating hungry and frustrated citizens with their archaic economic policies

Stop making assumptions that stand on no concrete proof.
I have lived in Ikpa road, Uyo, Akwa Ibom state since March, 2015. It is two years now and I have never met in my whole stay, any Ibibio, Oron man/woman that has chosen Biafra over Nigeria. They are always optimistic a better Nigeria is better than a Biafra. I try to instill into them restructuring Nigeria is almost impossible but I've never seen a people so Igbophobic.

The Igbos are not to be trusted
We don't trust them
They call us Minorities in a large country where they are not even tops in politics
They will oppress us to pieces if we are fooolish enough to join them in Biafra

Igbo man will never be President in Nigeria

Let the baton go round and round
SS will produce another President some day
Never! for Igbo!!
They better get their Biafra without SS for their own good

Hunger was not this severe under Goodluck/OBJ era and I agree joblessness in this Buhari regine is causing frustration among different quarters, also spear-heading Biafra agitation. And because it is triggered by something so peripheral, they lack ideology and diplomacy.
See, since northern youths are now dancing in IPOB tune, look how meek and quite IPOB has been ever since. They claim to be sophisticated but can't even raise buses to move troubled Igbo's out of unsettled North.

Fine, but going about it this way won't even accelerate the referendum to get to the level you're now talking about.
