Point of correction Prof,
It's not Biafra has not been defeated

But

Biafra can not be defeated.

This ideology is ingrained in the mind and souls of toddlers and babies unborn,
The cry for liberation echoes from the anthills of Nsugbe to the mountains of Ngwo,
The cry of injustice is heard from the lakes of Oguta to the beaches of Buguma.

Never again,
Never again shall we see the Hausa-Fulani and call him brother.
We are not genetically identical
We are not psychologically identical
We are not spiritually identical
Those are no brothers of ours,
At best, they are neighbors but not our brothers

Our brothers don't mate with animals
Our brothers don't marry underage girls
A neighbor is not a brother.

Our lands are ravaged,
Our resources are exploited,
Our tomorrow is raped,
Our hands are tied,
Our mouths are gagged
They've made us believe all we can do is mumur
We can't shout or fight because we are powerless.

But one day,
The sun will rise again,
Power will return to the people

Viva Biafra.



Most people see you from a sarcastic angle,while undermining your ability to reason intelligently and still convey wonderful messages to some dilussional and disoriented minds.BIAFRA IS LIFE nigeria is death!

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!
The whites really helped us.
Red cross saved my mother that time.
That's when Médecins_Sans_Frontières was established.
Doctors without Borders, it was because of the war.

Shameful Osus undecided

Last year when prof. said he will tear his green card and leave America if Donald Trump is elected as
American president these ingrates were abusing him and calling him all sorts of names, today he has become the most intelligent human being on the surface of earth because he said something positive about Biafra. They forget to remember that the only public figure that has been supporting Biafra from 1967 till date is prof. even their leader and founder Ojukwu denounced Biafra at a point. During the war when their founding father Azikiwe betrayed them and join Nigeria federal government, prof went to jail for their Biafra. Prominent Yoruba soldiers like Victor Banjo and Adegboyega gallantly led Biafra soldiers to fight Nigerian force without whom the war won't have lasted for 3 years. The likes of Tai Solarin, Soyinka and Fela were the ones that called the attention of international communities to the starvation of millions of Biafrans after their lord Ojukwu fled to Abidjan. What did Yorubas get from them with all these goodwill? Name calling, insults and bile filled hatred. Posterity will be the judge of these ungrateful souls

Nigeria don't know that some wounds never heal they only stop bleeding!!! We were told about the atrocities they did to our forefathers right from birth and like religion we will never forget.

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. Kanu is definitely collecting his pay check from Ekweremandu, Ubah, Odua, Obi, and the likes. A silly puppet dancing to the tune of this pay master, and half of the entire SE youths cant see this fraud for his insincerity. Just please give them the Biafra, and see these people self-destruct like ticking timebomb in less than a decade.

One thing you fail to realize is that the Igbos have made up their minds to leave Nigeria for you guys.If you like,invoke amadioha or sango to fall on you and your generation,there's no turning back.

WS only stated obvious, Biafran is based on a brash and deadly foundation. It is a concept steep ed in blood, needless deaths on both side of the divide.Biafra has been further denatured and sullied with opportunistic upstart and mentally marauded morons. Biafra is concept and philosophy screwed up to self-stultify. Igbo's can give a pristine version of Biafra, one created with essentials replete with respect for others, respect for the rule of law, other dissenting views with rendition of cerebral superior arguments not lumpen laden travesty of intelligence been propagated by dim witted iPods. Are there no deep and robust intellectuals in Igbo nation that can take the gauntlet.

Those who insist on the divine right of nation over a people’s choice seem unaware that they box themselves into the same doctrinaire mould of mere habit, just like religion. In the Nigerian instance, however, the matter is even more troubling. Since the absolutists of nation indivisibility are not ignorant of the histories of other nations
True words. And this is what the "one Nigerianists" fail to understand.

I agree with you. Wole Soyinka should mind what he says lest someone declare war saying Soyinka encouraged him to secede.
The papa Awo speech to the western house assembly was the reason they declared the last one. We don't want another "Yoruba told us to do it" story.
