But this time, it will also affect you because they will surely bring the war to your door step. Bigot!

Why comments like this one is not deleted and the account barred is what I don't understand Nairaland has turned to a fertile ground for ethnic hatred and most times, very irresponsible comments.
Imagine a 'normal' human being saying his 'fellow countrymen' are about to be harvested??

Seun/Mods should be proactive with these things......these days I am very ashamed opening Nairaland in public as I now see it as a place for petty idle people, and ethnic bigots!

Some forces have tried to create anarchy in the south west eg Millitants killing in Arepo, it's environs and Baddo cult killings in Ikorodu but the Yoruba society always rises against such situations.

The South Eastern society and it's leaders keep quiet and sometimes secretly encourage it. It's now about to blow up in their faces.

Same thing with the Northern society tolerating Boko Haram till it grew into a monster they could no longer handle.

I have faith in the south west because we have our short comings but we try to speak up against it on time.

The east was never conquered ha ha ha...

1. I know your poorly educated because you believe the only mission of the Church in the east was to spread the word of God .. as it were.
2. Would you extinguish your scarce resources on a cornucopia of hamlets in the east with limited commercial potential or rather on the trade routes, political machinery and valuable artifacts of Edo land, or the Unmatched political organization and communication network of the north or perhaps the beautiful mermaids of Akwa Cross.

No my unlearned fellow in the times past the fewer wars and enemies you had the more insignificant you truly were. They spent less effort on your territory because they had very little to gain. Think about it

Deltagiant:
They've got nothing to fear for. Eastern regions' citizens are not savages like their kinsmen up north. Were Biafra to be in existent today, the Awusa man would be welcomed to be a citizen after a good background check. This is in most part because the average Igboman is forward thinking and has no fear for domination by any one.

Read up European expedition in Igboland including huge commercial transactions in Coal, Palm oil and Ivory in Igboland which ironically has the biggest Market in West Africa.

The Chairman of Traditional Rulers’ Council, Umuahia North Local Government Area, HRM Eze Philip Ajomuiwe

All this Kings with no bloodline in the east. So weak and docile. And they said easterners are republicans.

These guys are the least organized ethnic group in Nigeria. Their ancestral failure to consolidate power is the sole cause of their political insignificance.

I always wondered why the east is so fragmented. And it occurred to me. If they could not have at anytime one ruling house that cut across atleast 1/3 of Ibo land. They never could organize themselves.

Edo conquered far and wide, Nupe far and wide, Yoruba far and wide, Fulani far and wide, Hausa far and wide (even had a warrior princess)
Ijaw, Itshekiri, Calabar. All well organized.

The east has always been a weak but rebellious political group. They can only unite for death and destruction of themselves by themselves.

Remember Bokoharam in the north east. IPOB thinks, the anarchy will go pass the niger bridge. We have six geopolitical zones for times like these, to compartmentalize insurgency, madness and mass delirium

They are liars and revisionists. if you don't challenge these sons of Belial they would pass around nonsense as facts.
These yoruba bandits needed one naijeria to save them from themselves. They had very little ethnic organization with different yoruba crappy kingdom slaughetring another crappy kingdom with the attendant genocides.
The brits were astonished at such savagery .
If Nigeria splits today, they will decend right back into full scale anarchy that their yoruba fore-fathers left off.

TheCabal:

Was this before or after the British had absorbed Nigerian territories.


You still dey sleep ..

okway2:


I didn't.....because you ipob miscreant found a way to mischievously drag Yoruba into your problem.

KemjikaEme:


Biafra is a legitimate cause.

cstr1000:


If you expect me to start listing how igboland is shortchanged then that is a waste of my time. You will never see it.

bigfish3k:


did we drag yorubas or yorubas dragged themselves into ipob matter in a very biased way just to please the north, spewing all kinds of propaganda, telling us very beautiful stories why we shouldn't go, and immediately u box them into a corner with superior argument they will retort to this their popular language of "who is holding u back not to go" while in their heart of hearts both spiritually and physically they are ready to commit their sons and daughters to the battle front as they did before to go and die. and yet they will still tell u that they don't care if u go but ready to kill their sons and daughter. hypocrites.
igbos are not happy with the yorubas because, if the north is fighting the west, igbos will rather be neutral than to fight against them thereby allowing yorubas achieve whatever they want to achieve
but if the north is fighting the igbos, yorubas will never be neutral , they will join hands against the igbos as they did in 1967, and are also doing right now by most of them on this platform , to make sure they scuttle whatever aims the igbos have no matter how good that project is. that is where the mistrust stems from. yorubas suddenly became illiterates by interpreting referendum to mean war just to hurt the igbos whom they said contribute nothing to the nation. please give us punishment by allowing us go. you people are the aggressors
imagine someone telling the army to harvest us, kill us...... we unarmed innocent people that wants to leave without hurting anyone

okway2:



All this nonsense and yet no sense being made. Yes Ibos, seeing that no one was paying attention, dragged Yorubas into their nonsense to gain relevance.

Guy, Biafra was never a legitimate cause. Today, your anthem is referendum.

Did Gen. Ojukwu carry out any sort of referendum. Whether formal or informal.

Did he seek the consent of the minorities, of whose territories and ancestral lands he cordoned?

Do you know a legitimate cause if it stares you in the face? IPOB is completely without a doubt a band playing the songs of death.

A group that is incapable of fielding one intellectual of international repute. Your group claims to be interested in the people welfare, why not form a political party and run for governor, senator, house of rep, councillor, LGA chairman.

Take a look at Lagos, everyone is looking up to that state. It has grown because of organization and vision. Lagos at a time did not receive funds from the center .. yet it is the 7th largest economy in Africa last time I checked and it is still growing.

Look inwards for your problem.. like I said, you need to stop telling yourselves that you are this or that.. ask yourself how can we improve.

Look at Kebbi a ghost state in the north. By this time next year it will be the largest producer of rice. But your still in the SE shouting for Biafra.

What happens to Innosons investments and the shoemakers at Aba.. wake up. The economy is changing.

Lmao, your Lagos could not have grown without a port and overwhelming contributions of Igbo business men and hardworking Nigerians.
