Shameless useless Igbos, so the same Shoyinka you all ridiculed because he criticized your Messiah and Bloda GEJ is suddenly the same person you are quoting. The Biafran folks are desperately seeking for validating and appeal. If Biafra is something you truly believe in, you dont need to care what Trump, or the UN, or the same person you all abused and shamed during the GEJ's government think. Its a matter of time before a baboon is quoted as a staunch supporter and lover of Biafra. Hopeless and insincere cause sponsored by criminals who are afraid of been investigated after looting the GEJ administration into tandem.

Don't mind them. Isn't FFK their most trusted ally today despite all the venom they have thrown his way?

One of the greatest Nigerians to ever grace this earth. It's a shame that people like him are often left on the peripheries of government whilst people like Buhari are given the highest status in the country. Nnamdi Kanu should have gone further in his comparison of Nigeria to a zoo; Nigeria is a zoo where the zookeepers, like Prof Soyinka, are caged and the animals roam free.
. Nigeria is not a zoo, there is orderliness in a zoo, the animals are kept in cages but Nigeria is a jungle where anything and everything is possible

Nigeria's fraudulent political structure created by northern Nigeria through its military dictators can easily make a cow from northern Nigeria win a Prof. Wole Soyinka from the south to become president of Nigeria, so long as north's political class wants the president to come from the north..

This man is indeed a professor of books. Only that just like other intellects from the west sides, they support illiterates even over themselves. I don't understand why in the world in educated man will support and promote mediocre? I mean, it's unfortunate and preposterous.He talks big, but acts small. Typical undecided

Kettle calling pots black!!!, China Achebe and Nnamdi Azikiwe the greats did not do more than Soyinka to support biafra secession.Till date high ranked politicians of igbo extract are still supporting one Nigeria.Charity begins at home.If igbo people trully want to go their elders must unite and support it.Goodluck Jonathan left power two years ago,why didn't the igbos push for breakup when he was the president,2010 - 2015.

Soyinka stood for Biafra

Fajuyi sacrificed himself for Ironsi

Adekunle made Ojukwu run for Abidjan...

Why are Jews so much in love with Afonja? They come here daily to rant making one richer while wasting their MB.

Well written, Prof

My preference for 'in' goes beyond ethnic and tribal differences, it's more of nationalistic oneness of purpose. We can achieve more than we can imagine with our varieties if we agree to work together as Nigerians.

Am certain, the crop of despicable leaders we have in Nigeria and among the seeming Biafran elements can never guarantee respite and succour in the much dreamt Biafran state.

Biafra agitation is a passing phase. Forerunners come and go. Nigeria will stand at the end of the day.

Long live Nigeria

Peace!

"...Should Biafra stay in, or opt out of Nigeria? That is the latent question. Even after years of turbulent co-tenancy, it seems unreal to conceive of a Nigeria without Biafra. My preference for “in” goes beyond objective assessment of economic, cultural and social advantages for Biafra and the rest of us...."

Some people think Biafra started with APC administration, I laugh.

The wounds of Biafra are still existent in many Families up till today.
Personally, I wasn't born then, but I was told Nigerian Government dropped a bomb in our Village market, killing many civilians, my Dad's 2 sisters and their small children lost their lives.
The were in the Market, this happened when the war was still starting, it wasn't full scale yet.

My family was personally affected, Nigeria has never apologized for this, even the program to reconstruct, rehabilitate the places that were destroyed by the war, never saw the daylight.
I know some disabled people still alive today, who got their disability as a result of the Biafra war

I'm not an IPOB member or a full supporter of Nnamdi Kanu, but Biafra is far from Over.

Buhari given his nepotism, undiplomatic, bigoted and fanatic nature just increased the fire, but the fire was always burning...
I still insist that Buhari is a curse from the gods, no doubt.
No country deserves Buhari as a president, it's pure wickedness, many people are suffering so much.
It is really far from over. My father lost his elder brother to the war and himself nearly lost his life to sickness and hunger, thanks to the white Missionaries who flew him out for treatment. Nigeria has never apologized instead punishing us further with hunger and Buhari!
