That's because it is not.

The majority of Igbo people see themselves as biafrans.

During the civil war, their fathers , grand parents, mothers, died for it. Their people in millions were killed or starved to death.

Push comes to shove, they will chose to align with Biafra than Nigeria which effectively makes them active candidates as saboteurs.

Peter Obi is a saboteur!

During the war, when the Nigerian army wants to kill you and you are able to shout ONE NIGERIA! You will be allowed to live.

This one Nigeria mentality is still prevalent in the north but not so in the South East.

In the south east, the struggle for Biafra has never stopped. It simply changed in pattern. The war ground now is the media .

u know I just hope this is how all other Nigerians think

u know why ? because that would mean Igbos have no place in Nigeria anymore , the moment Igbos realize that they can't win elections at the national scale because of the northerners and westerners , I wanna see who will stop Biafra and shout one Nigeria

I wanna see who will say we are one

if this is truly how u guys think then Biafra is inevitable

the only way to stop Biafra is to let Igbos in ,but if u refuse because of this same Biafra , u would only help it rise

stanluiz:
peter obi is not the owner of hero beer.
Hero beer is the product of intafact beverages under sab miller company.
Obi is just one of the shareholders.

Show us the shareholding structure of sab miller in Onitsha

Officialpdpnig:
It is. The best way to go is to keep these biafran apologists like Peter Obi at arms length and keep them away from any position of great power otherwise it would be like bringing a serpent into a poultry.

I belong to PDP but I love Nigeria first

so ur solution is too keep Igbos away from power?

hahahaha I laugh in Chinese , ur must be an afonja

only a coward would think that's the solution , thinking everyone is the same as him

Hotfreezer:
Ruling is not a right. There are 250 ethnic groups in Nigeria and more than 200 who are more Nigerian than Igbos haven't ruled.

Let them rule first while Igbos learn how to be good citizens.

lol

okay na let's see how it thinking would work , go and tell ndigbo to be good citizens

Stop misleading the public with a false information.

Let me pitch in since you invited me.

The truth is that Atiku being a Fulani made a huge unforgivable mistake.

Ipobs have been busy insulting the northerners and especially fulanis for a long time and then Atiku not only began rubbing shoulders with them BEFORE they tendered any form of apology but also went ahead to choose a staunch ipobian and bigot called Peter Obi as his vice.

Atiku cannot and will never get the support of the north.

You may ask how it is that Peter Obi is a supporter of ipob.

Well let me tell you, Peter Obi owns Hero beer and you can look at the logo of hero beer and compare with the biafran flag then draw your conclussion

One problem with people like you is stupidity Hero and Life are the two most popular beer product Nigerians consume now You want to destroy a product you cannot create You want to bring down a man you cannot be

MONIKERREVEALER:
yet this is your OWN alternate moniker mr throwback. amongst several others. I gotta hand it to you, you are good at what you do. I hope your remuneration is commensurate with the effort. still have this at the back of your mind, your anti-self determination histrionics are futile. the freedom of my people is certain. kwantinue!

I believe you are a confused fellow. Who is Mr throwback?

When and where did I utter any anti self determination histrionic?

Are you reading my comments from the bottom of a jar of palm wine?

Naughtysite:

My aim is not to destroy nothing. My aim is to show that for every bottle of hero lager beer drunk by someone and shared with the Biafra logo emblazoned on the bottle is an advert for Biafra and based on this, the agitation will never cease because average Igbo man knows that Biafra logo like they know their children.

Practically every Igbo home tells stories of the Biafra war to their children and they keep the cycle going.

Any billboard you see the hero beer advert is a license to display the Biafra logo with authority on the streets, highways and homes.

You brought it upon yourselves. Nobody else did but you!

An adage says " one bad apple spoils the whole barrel".

You all have never gotten over this Biafra or no Biafra issue and your actions, words, etc keep proving it.

Long story short, most of you cannot be trusted when it comes to issues concerning Nigeria.

Just look at APGA for example. The same mindset has made APGA a SE party because you all want to give yourselves a voice since Biafra couldn't give you that, you know shifted it to a political party and this is why you will keep being restricted.

Ive been preaching that for years. Igbo ruined First Republic. Igbo ruined the first decade of Nigerian independence. Igbo ruined GEJ. Keep Igbo away from central govt.

What govt should do is first give the regions back their autonomous powers. That way Igbo can self govern itself and stay out of trouble. Simple!

That way you develop at your own speed and if you want to launch rocket and put Chukwudi on the moon, the sky, not Nigeria, will be your limit.

marvinsync:
why u so dense?

does ipob= Igbo people?

ipob has nothing to do with Nigeria , they keep saying no referendum no election

but that's not the voice of all Igbo people .

if u want us to leave then let us leave u can't force us to stay and not allow us participate

we mention Biafra u say "one Nigeria"

we say okay let us get involved u then say " what about Biafra? "


whats wrong with u people?

You are simply rambling incoherently.

You want to leave or you want to stay?

When your own elite cannot and will not call those agitating for Biafra to order is that not support tacitly given?

Go to the streets of Abia or Anambra and listen to how they have deified Nnamdi Kanu right under the nose of their governors who did and said nothing.

Did ipobians not disrupt a church service recently? Who got arrested?

If you say its not the voice of all Igbo people then those who are not in support should speak up right in their own backyard.

On a second thought, considering how deep this has gotten, even such actions would be termed as deceptive and as a ploy to endere a few to their host and give them access to areas they can sabotage.

Its like trying to separate sand from sand. How can that work?

who killed over a hundred thousand Igbos in the north thereby causing the Biafra succession?

who went back on his word when Biafra was supposed to be a confederation with Nigeria ?

who mass murdered millions of Igbo Genocidally ?

who marginalized us , depriving the ss/se as much infrastructure as the north and west ?

ur talking trash!

u think ndigbo should crawl on their knees and beg the Fulani like the afonjas do?

we should grovel and be quiet and obedient slaves so that we'll be pitied upon

you fight! , u struggle until u see change u don't wait for it to happen

restructuring , Igbo presidency , marginalisation is being discussed today because of the Biafra agitation , because people are fighting !

35824L:
The scariest thing I have heard from the iboes is that they plan to kill atiku in office so that their man can take control and declare lefelendum. Atiku lost this election the day he picked a jew as his vp.

We all know that we yoruba poisoned Buhari in office time so that VP osinbade will become presido.

Tinubu and yoruba have sworn to finish off buhari in the second tenure so that yoruba will take power. We yorubas are backstabbers. Everybody knows what we yorubas are capable of doing.

ur not making sense

we have said Biafra, they don't want to give us that , they went as far as calling those supporting it terrorist , do u know how many Igbos have suffered under "python dance" .
so we have no choice but to enter politics !


Biafra might not have been the voice of all Igbo people but that doesn't mean the words of kanu and those agitating for Biafra are wrong when it comes to the crimes against Igbos .

and how can u expect Igbos to treat their fellow brothers like terrorists even if they don't agree with them

ruined the first republic?
u mean a republic formed by colonial masters?

Nigeria is not and has never been by force

when Igbos wanted to leave why didn't u just let them go? , na by force?


now let's say government gives ndigbo autonomous powers , military and police are included right?
and it seems u still don't know that Nigeria is under northern rule , the north won't let go of the power they have on the south cause they would be left behind , and if this were to happen then Nigeria's unity will be threatened because why should we live with the backward and handicapped northerners holding us back , if we have autonomous power we'll split

Sadly that is the reality and that is why I weep for my party. We got all calculations and permutations wrong especially Atiku and his propensity for making wrong choices.

Peter Obi is a pillar behind Ipob.

Hero beer began in 2012 and that was their logo since 2012.

Ipob was formed in 2014 and adopted the same logo as the hero beer brand.

Nnamdi kanu is a bigot
Peter Obi is a bigot

Peter Obi is now Vice under Atiku while still pursuing the ipob agenda and still being an unrepentant bigot

It is surprising that well informed and educated igbos are not aware of the huge damage IPOB and their insults of other tribes, especially to the Hausa/Fulanis and Yoruba, has done to their long time political interests in Nigeria. The igbo political elites are not just doing enough to counter IPOB's strategy of antagonising other tribes as a means of achieving Biafra. Atiku would have done better by choosing a vice presidential candidate from the south south (even if from South South igbos), but to choose from core IPOB igbo is a huge political gamble.

If your parents or grandparents had been the ones who told you about the history of Biafra you would not be as misinformed as you currently are with all the tripe you just said.

Nobody marginalized the igbos but themselves. They have had governors, leaders, etc but rather than those governors doing what is right to their regions with what they got from the federal government, the usual me, myself and I mentality of the Igbo man kicked in and they kept it all for themselves as they developed their own village and clan instead.

This has been the norm in the SE and is of no fault of the FG.

Why should Biafra be a confederation in a Nation? Who deceives you people? Your entitlement mentality has been for ages and it is beginning to sound like a genetic trait among you.

Igbos were fighting for sovereignty and Nigeria was fighting for togetherness. Both had an agenda although one was better prepared than the other.

You killed, they killed or you think Nigerians did not also lose soldiers and people during the war?

Nobody is asking you to crawl and beg. You are simply being asked to stop acting like children constantly throwing a temper tantrum or like someone said, "acting like children whose ribena got taken from them" and grow up.

The war has been fought and lost/won. MOVE ON!

Now learn tolerance, learn peace, learn how to be involved in the affairs of the people you once hated.

However, the South South oil issue and their own noise making still kept your agitation alive as you all selfishly felt you would be better off for it if Nigeria breaks since you feel you are the sustainers of Nigeria through oil.

It still boils down to your usual me, myself and I mindset which refuses to let you go.

quite the opposite really

by choosing from the SE can't u see the Biafran agitation and reduced, "no referendum no election". has less power now

even from the response of Igbos to kanu u can tell they are leaving him slowly

CilicMarin:
Every Northerner I have met since Atiku became PDP candidate , always gives this as a reason they won't touch him with long poles next year.



Why are northerners seeing Atiku candidacy as an IPOB Project who are bent on realizing Biafra through him?

Please let's discuss.

nonsense
read civil war on Wikipedia , Biafra at the initial stages was supposed to be a confederation with Nigeria but Gowon went against his word

and "Nigeria fought for togetherness"? does that even make sense , what actually happened was Fulani/Hausa and Yorubas fought to conquer Biafrans

now the marginalisation is after the war , the northerners and westerners are always afraid to give Igbos power like ur saying now , always tryna cut corners with us , ur not igbo u won't know the marginalisation .

This is a temporary fix. What happened if Atiku/Obi loses the 2019 presidential elections? The shouts of Biafra of death will get louder, and maybe more violent.

The igbo political elites are not handling the IPOB phenomena sensibly. They are sending confusing signals to other Nigerians and the general igbo masses, so other Nigerians don't trust them in the political space. All south south igbo governors and political leaders have come out to condemn IPOBs agenda and modus of operation, including some prominent traditional rulers, but core Igbo ones have not.

Kanu simply have to wait until after the elections, all the people that left him will come back. He can then up the hate rhetorics.
