Translation by Agumbaa(nairalander)



"if Nigeria wants to reorganize itself and live in justice and equity, why not give it a try, but if our people have checked everything, right from the end of the war, to the 3 Rs which I did not see any till this now, and then we say staying on our own is best for the long term, we all have to come together and support it".

"Nnamdi Kanu and his group has been peaceful so far, but it pains me so much when I read and watch videos of how police and soldiers attack our young ones, it broke my heart".

"To all our people in high political places, whether APC or PDP or any party you are in, you see the yearnings and agitations of our people and you shout "No No No", because you want to better your own lot, your family and grand children, be wise, there is nowhere food is cooked and kept ready for you, if you want to use your people and do politics, let me say this to you, what is coming, you will feel like you are immune to it, but you will be the first one to be cut out and reduced to nothing".




He also talked grossly about marginalization. He said which tribe will shut up when no member of their tribe is amongst the security leadership of a country.

FakoMaybach1:
OP not only is your headline a blatant lie, your translation has left out so many facts and decided to pick the ones u need for your sensational cause.

How i wish Osuofia could sue you for Libel with this your headline, Osuofia called for Intellectual discourse, he called for restructuring with peace, he only added that if after discussion we find that we as a nation cannot cohabit then Biafra can leave.

You have given sketchy translations and i find it distasteful, the agitation of Biafra should be based on truth, Justice and Equity; not lies or "Alternative facts"

Everything Osuofia said in this interview is what people have been echoing, we need to discuss on how to restructure Nigeria, let every region control its resources. Yes he bemoaned the security apparatus of the country shooting unarmed people, and he also said Biafra can cohabit. But this 13 minute interview which i listened from beginning to the end is not a call for Biafra as you put it.

@lalasticlala @mind44 please do something about this misleading headline.

On the interview, i also concur with Osuofia, it is time to take this agitation to an intellectual level. Any house of rep member or senator that does not buy into the cause should be recalled. I believe if Kogi people can recall dino then we can recall any senator that is playing the Ostrich in this obvious marginalization and humiliation meted out on Igbos by the Buhari administration.
As osuofia said which i agree, it is due to grievances that this call for Biafra is emanating, i mean how can it be that no security chief is an Igbo man; not even civil defense!!!. So if the security of the country is being discussed no Igbo man will be present Haba!!

Do u even enjoy typing long epistles


His translation is not misleading, Discuss restructure or Exit.


Osufia simply said Either we restructure or biafra will break away so I don't know what ur typing.

It's a pity that people call for separation but can't even boast of food to take them a week, when war starts, your atm stops working and the cost of food skyrocket, you might not even get to see your family in years as you may be at work when the first bomb goes off and the whole Road is blocked with abandoned vehicles and imagine walking from Victoria island to agege or alagbado....war is never an option

Excuse me please? What if there were no suitably qualified Igbo men? Which do you want - merit or "Federal Character"? Choose one.


If there are no qualified igbo men, then there are no qualified Hausa or Yoruba men.

Based on what merit and logic did the hausa and Yoruba qualify? Them born them inside military?

What are you justifying.. A system that has deliberately screw the military in favor of the North to the disadvantage of the east in all ramifications?
Tell me please?.... The Nigerian DEFENSE ACADEMY IS LOCATED IN THE NORTH
, THE BEST MILITARY DIVISION WITH BEST ARTILLERIES ARE ALL LOCATED IN THE NORTH, SO HOW CAN THEIR BE A BALANCE?.. That is what your eye are not seeing, because they have scammed you
Well, there is a history behind it. smiley That the most qualified security personnel did not happen by chance; the historic events which started with the 1966 coup and culminated in the Nigerian Civil War are well documented. So questioning the reason behind why no Igbo are suitably qualified is moot.

I support a united Nigeria but I think the major tribes are taking the other tribes for granted.. there level of marginalization,tribalism and oppression by the major tribes against minorities is crazy.. There would have been no need for the igbos to agitate for biafra if every tribe was equally represented in the scheme of things in this country.. there can never be love,peace,progress and unity in the mist of injustice and hatred against others.
I want to show you a perfect example of Marginalization: oil is found in Eket,Akwa ibom but Mobil head office is in lagos,lagos controls everything that happens at Mobil Eket.

How many south-south person owns oil well 90% of oil wells are owned by the Yorubas and hausas ,and some blind people re saying theres one Nigeria

All Igbo men that matters are now speaking up and majority are in support of Biafra. The greedy politicians and some selfish elite are fast being isolated, very soon the East will become hot for them. Finally, HERE IS THE REVOLUTION WE HAVE SINCE BEEN CLAMOURING FOR!!!

The gullible jobless people as well as agberos are roaming the streets and motor parks as well as omo niles in d west aka Afonjanistan. Some Afenifere are also clamouring for division only that Afonjas havr two mouths and seems not to know what they want.
undecided Hope soldiers would be deployed to other parts of Nigeria where fulanis have killed and maimed cos soldiers were deployed when Fulanis were killed in Taraba cos the lives of Fulanis are much more worth than the lives of other Nigerians?
Where are those people that condemn and atagonize Igbo agitations for Biafra?
Can't they see that some people are more Nigerians than other Nigerians? How long would people fool themselves with "One Nigeria" when the thread that holds the country is so thin and about to cut? Can one not see that there has never, there is and there will never be any basis for Nigeria's unity? Why live in a fools paradise and not realize that we can never be one? Why cant other people of the south realize that the only basis for "One Nigeria" is the domination of the north who have ruled for over 40 years out of Nigeria's 57 years of independence and are agitating to rule in 2019 or else heaven would fall? But they would channel all their strength and energy against d igbos and Biafra? Can't even d southerners realize that even the Middle Belt that had been used by d core north have now been wiser coupled with d fact that their land is now soaked with blood but the fulani mauraders with impunity? Have we asked what was thenaim of Late Gideon Orkar's coup. Pls google it.
Let us for a second remove hate at least for a second and reflect deeply.
Let us go back to history and see if there are lessons to be learnt cos in the words of Late Robert Nesta Marley "we cannot know where we are going if we do not know where we come from".
Watch the video below and see that d hatred of igbos did not start today. If inflammatory comments which d north has always made to cause problem and can come out of a leader then only a fool would want to continue with a doomed project that Nigeria is and would always be.

This should be noted that British are behind our present conflict by systematically plugged us into conflict just because we asked for freedom. This same nations are the ones Buhari is having a romantic affair with while Britain practices a system of government that won't give rise to conflict with separate govt for Wales, Scotland, Ireland and England.

Funny people like you always like to start a story from the middle to pull wool over the eyes of the casual observer who then mistakes reaction/retaliation for victimization.

In any case, the story of your people is best described analogically as thus:

Several children take turns riding a bike. At some point, the most selfish and greedy amongst the children decided he wanted more rides than the rest of the children. The other children resisted. Then this selfish and greedy child decided he was taking the bike home with him; to the amazement of the rest of the children because the bicycle did not even belong to him! Go figure.
