It is difficult for you to accept that thousands of you died needlessly and foolishly because of your and Ojukwu pride.
That is too painful to swallow

So Awolowo must take the heat.
That makes it more bearable. We understand
The problem is he is dead and so you want to transfer your hatred to the rest of the Yoruba.

Your hatred is really self hatred.
Ojukwu took you into a foolish war and you blame Awo for defeat.

Nnamdi Kanu will lead you down the same part and it will be worse

He championed the policy, moreover, it was the 4th policy he made directly disenfranchising Igbos.

I'll explain:
1. 20 pounds saga, outlawing Biafran currency without providing an adequate alternative
2. withdrawal of Federal Troops from the East, therein removing the soldier's salaries which solders were spending in the East
3. Championing the Decree, which was finally promulgated after he was frustrated out of office, but still had the same effect
4. Selling Nigeria's assets at a time when Igbos were their most disenfranchised

Let's speak in facts:

Outlawing Biafran currency without providing alternative

What exactly are you smoking tonight ?

Who legalised it in the first place?

What year exactly were the assets sold?


Did you swallow a recording?
Awolowo left the Government in1971 and Shagari took over
So all those things happened if they did under Shagari who was finance minister from 1971 to 1975

If you force an nation to become part of your nation, you cannot then ban the local currency and not provide an alternative. If Ghana forcefully took over Nigeria and banned the Naira, but didn't give us an alternative, everyone would become extremely poor over night. if you ban a country's currency, you have to allow for an alternative, unless the policy is designed to impoverish a group. Let's talk truth, what was the motivation behind such a policy? It was to impoverish the East, or punish the East for the war, immediately after the war anti-Igbo sentiment was at an all time high so Igbos caught hell for the first 7 years after the war.


Force a nation? Biafra na nation?
You Eboes are funny dudes
And all the Nigerian pounds you gave to Ojukwu for your Biafra pounds went where?
Ojukwu scammed you but you blame Awo

Biafra was an internationally recognized country, but if you lose a war, you lost a war and if the nation that takes over says your country doesn't exist, then it is wiped off the map. That's the reality. So if you take over another nation, there are certain functions of government you have to also take over, currency circulation is just one of the many. Other duties also include, light, roads, sewage, etc.


recognised by the UN?

Some Ikwerre's sided with the Nigerian Forces after the fall of Port Harcourt, the ones who remained loyal to Biafra fled north and continued fighting, the ones who remained took up arms against Biafra at the request of the Federal Government. So to an extent, Ikwerres were spared, but still face disenfranchisement as they are viewed by other groups as "Igbo" even though they may not see themselves that way. To an ethnic bigot, Emeka from Aba and Emeka from PH (Ikwerre) are both "Igbos."

The real issue I'm even responding is because independent third parties will see what I wrote and what he wrote.

He wished Awolowo was one of the elders he had in his corner in 1966.
Awolowo dismissed him as A LIAR

I joined nairaland because of the hatred yorubas and hausa shows against igbos here.

Let the hatred continue because we are here to pay them in their own coins.
My dear I also find the way Igbo people have been marginalized in Nigeria since Biafra War disgusting. We can all do better.
But whether together or going separate ways, hate will not get us anywhere.

My belief is one cannot emulate the "bad" behaviour of others just to pay them back. It's against what the Bible says. Once we hate in return, we just become like those we see as doing the wrong thing.

Separation is probably best for Nigeria, but a peaceful one is more desirable.

If we had the maturity and civility to separate peacefully, we'd get things so right that separation agenda won't even arise in the first place.

My many on Nairaland have not much going for them. Many are jobless youth. So do not take their bigotry and tribalism seriously.

I am not Igbo by the way.

I endorse this opinion and adopt it as mine.


The igbos and yorubas just cannot agree politicallyor socially. As a yoruba man, I can't just stomach the empty arrogance and hubris of the average igbo man. We don't see life the same way and I will always disagree with the igbo worldview. I can still endure the Hausa Fulani with his religiously induced murderous rage because he's not boastful or rude to me in yorubaland.

I have dragged back and forth with the igbo for 7 years on NL and realised that they can't change so there's really no need for rapprochement with them. The least we can do is to tolerate each other while respecting each other's values. For now, the only way we can punish the igbos for their hubris is to obstruct their March to Aso rock while conceptualizing further ways to cut down this hateful tribe.

For now, the igbos can continue enjoying the benefits of one Nigeria by trading around the Federation. If and when we get the opportunity to drive them out, we gladly will do so.

And when you obstruct their march to Aso rock it would put food on your table, build and maintain worthy social infrastructure for the society, create employment, tackle crime and insecurity, take us from poverty to prosperity?

A lot of Nigerians still haven't understood how sofisticated this Igbo tribe is, we were created to domninate and rule. It's in the gene of all igbo men and nothing can be done about it, maybe unless you wipe out the entire Igbo race cheesy

Now this is not about been rude and boastful, this is how we were created and there's nothing we can do about it

Which tribe is leading in technology?
Pharmaceutical?
Sports? (Our supereagles and golden eaglets)
Business?
Education? ( Please other tribes, what tribe is that student that's been topping your class in primary, secondary and tetiary?, I bet my balls I already know the tribe)



Britain did a very big mistake, they should never have added this sophisticated and troublesome tribe into the Nigerian map, I'm sure they're still regretting it. They should have left the tribe to thrive on it's own. Now this tribe is gonna single handedly tear the map apart. They fought a war already, and they're still hungry for more wars? Dafuk embarassed
