FG Offered Me Biafra Without Rivers, Benue: Nnamdi Kanu by RealityShot: 2:40pm On Feb 22, 2019 |
THE leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, yesterday, disclosed that the Federal Government offered him Biafra Republic while in Prison with only the five South East States as the component parts but he rejected it. According to him, he rejected it because that did not constitute the complete Biafra, saying that he told them that he wanted a Biafra with Rivers and Benue States inclusive. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/07/fg-offered-biafra-without-rivers-benue-nnamdi-kanu/ DID THIS REALLY HAPPEN? THEN Kanu Must be a very confused Idiot!!! Rivers and Benue, are they IGBO speaking states? this is why i will Never support Kanu & iPOB. They don't even know what they should & are fighting for... mtcheww!!! THERE ARE ONLY 5 IGBO STATES and that is all Igbos need to build a better country. Till the next sane leader arrives... |

RealityShot: Well it interest you to know that Rivers state are over 60% Igbo speaking people. In fact, the last 4 Governors of Rivers state have been Igbo men. Peter Odili Celestine Omehia Chibuike Amaechi Nyesome Wike Rivers state was in the first Biafran Republic Also, In Benue, there are over one million Igbos who were carved into Benue when they should have been in Ebonyi. This was done to make up the population of Benue. The Benue Igbos are known as the Umuezeokoha people and are found in Obi, Oju, and Okpoku local governments But it is very important to note that Biafra not just about Igbos, but about the people of the former Eastern Region. In fact, the last President of Biafra, General Philip Effiong, was not even an Igbo man. 7 Likes |

gidgiddy: 1) Ikwerre people, from their politicians to their royal fathers to their intellectuals to their sociocultural groups (especially the Ogbakor Ikwerre) have severally made it clear with no equivocation that they don't consider themselves Igbo. I have interacted with many of them in social media groups and these people are groomed from birth with the resentment of Igbos. So I've learnt to keep them at arms length. Yet people like you seem obsessed with invoking insults from groups that reject you by forceful attachment. Why? Why can't you take a hint and accept the rejection? 2) There are not 1 million Igbos in Benue. That is an exaggeration with no basis in facts. 3) The "first Biafran Republic" is long gone, never to be reconstituted. I'm not aware that your supreme leader consulted any Efik or Ibibio or Ijaw or Ikwerre or Urhobo or Itsekiri people who told him to fight on their behalf for anything. But all this is rather meaningless as the notion that anybody cares enough about the riffraff to give him anything is surely laughable. Anybody that thinks such a conversation ever took place is a window-licking, drooling reetard. 2 Likes |

Obi1kenobi: Ikwerres are just one of the many Igbo speaking people who populate Rivers state. Below are two videos. The first is of former Governor of Rivers state, Chibuike Amaechi, an Ikwerre man, saying that he is Igbo. I deal in facts not hearsay The second is Ikwerre people openly identifying with Biafra 2) There are not 1 million Igbos in Benue. That is an exaggeration with no basis in facts. So how many Benue Igbos are there and why are they carved into Benue and not next door in Ebonyi with their kin? 3) The "first Biafran Republic" is long gone, never to be reconstituted. I'm not aware that your supreme leader consulted any Efik or Ibibio or Ijaw or Ikwerre or Urhobo or Itsekiri people who told him to fight on their behalf for anything.That is what a referendum is for. Considering the fact that Lugard neither consulted anybody nor held a referendum when he included everybody in Nigeria in 1914, it is a huge improvement that the Biafran agitators want Biafra created by the choice of referendum But all this is rather meaningless as the notion that anybody cares enough about the riffraff to give him anything is surely laughable. Anybody that thinks such a conversation ever took place is a window-licking, drooling reetard. What matters is that everybody is entitled to the right of self determination.

gidgiddy: It doesn't matter if they are "Igbo speaking" or not. There is more to identity than language. Efik linguistically has more in common with Ibibio than my Idemili tongue has with Ikwerre. Yet, Efik and Ibibio people identify themselves as kin, but distinct. They are only Igbo if they accept the identity as Igbos. Amaechi has only made his claims in national politics where he thought it might earn him political capital. But he knows most of his kin disagree with him. I know it. You know it. My point here is please stop attracting insults to us with this obsession with Ikwerre people. It makes them feel important, and they are not that important. The most important Ikwerre sociopolitical group asserts the independence and distinctness of their identity and makes it clear they don't consider themselves Igbo. Stop attaching to them and attracting needless resentment to Igbos.
There are no census figures. I know Tivs are the comfortable majority of the state. Followed by Idomas and Igedes. There is no evidence there are a million Benue Igbos. No rule states that every region must be homogeneous. It doesn't matter if they are in Benue and not Ebonyi. Austrians are ethnic Germans with their own country, but they are not part of Germany. Switzerland has a majority German population. The Alsace region of France is majority German ethnicity, but they proudly identify as French. Homogeneity won't automatically create paradise on earth.
But none of those people asked you for a referendum. Scottish people did their referendum and didn't go around asking the people of Wales or Northern Ireland whether they wanted to join them to secede from the UK. If you're confident in your own cause and the future of the nation you wish to build, why not focus on your own emancipation. Go to any forum with Efik or Ibibio people and tell them about Biafra. They're likely to insult you. Ikwerre people would rather see Fulanis own all their oil wells before an Igbo man would own anyone. Why not focus on your own agitation, rather than trying to drag others into it and attracting resentment? And no, everybody is not entitled to self-determination. That is a childish interpretation of international law. If that were true, the sovereignty of many countries will always be up for debate. How many countries did you see supporting Catalonia's call for a referendum? The only time countries might ever support secessionist agitations is when there is a bloody civil war or genocide going on. Else, nobody cares. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Obi1kenobi: So when one Ikwerre man says he is not Igbo, he is asserting his independence. But when another Ikwerre man like former Governor Amaechi says he is Igbo, he is playing politics? I laugh. I even.posted the video of Ikwerre people identifying with Biafra, you have nothing to say about that one. There are no census figures. I know Tivs are the comfortable majority of the state. Followed by Idomas and Igedes. There is no evidence there are a million Benue Igbos. No rule states that every region must be homogeneous. It doesn't matter if they are in Benue and not Ebonyi. Austrians are ethnic Germans with their own country, but they are not part of Germany. Switzerland has a majority German population. The Alsace region of France is majority German ethnicity, but they proudly identify as French. Homogeneity won't automatically create paradise on earth. The examples above has nothing to do with the topic at hand. But none of those people asked you for a referendum. Scottish people did their referendum and didn't go around asking the people of Wales or Northern Ireland whether they wanted to join them to secede from the UK. If you're confident in your own cause and the future of the nation you wish to build, why not focus on your own emancipation. Go to any forum with Efik or Ibibio people and tell them about Biafra.

Why not focus on your own agitation, rather than trying to drag others into it and attracting resentment? When Lugard created Nigeria in 1914, nobody was consulted and no referendum held. So if those agitating for Biafra are wrong to include any other tribe in the proposed Biafra, it then means that what Lugard did in 1914 was illegal. If nobody agreed to be Nigerian, why do we have Nigeria? At least the Biafran agitators want everyone to choose where they belong via referendum. With Nigeria, nobody even had any choice. Nigeria is much worse than than the referendum the agitators want. Everybody is entitled to agitate for self determination, it is law. The people agitating may not get self determination, but they have the right to agitate. It is not for any country to support Catalonias referendum, it is their job to support Catalonia right to agitate for a referendum. Wether Catalonia gets a referendum will be up to Spain, but that right of Catalans to agitate for independence is already covered in international law. |

gidgiddy: It is not one Ikwerre man. Neither did I ever assert that all Ikwerres say the same thing. The fact is that social consensus among Ikwerres has seen them dissociate themselves from an Igbo identity. Many of them even invented a fake ancestry from Benin in a bid to shed any Igbo links. You would know this if you interacted with Ikwerre people. So again, please I'm sick of this attach-by-force mentality that brings insults to us. And I'm sick of making unimportant people feel important. Stop claiming people that have rejected you. It just makes you sound desperate. Rivers State is not Igbo land and Ikwerres are not Igbos. Go and argue it with them and stop associating us with this nonsense.
Lugard was our colonial overlord and Nigeria's founding fathers at independence adopted Lugard's legacy. It's irrelevant to your Biafra agitation. South South or Benue people did not ask you for any referendum and the riffraff IPOB supreme leader speaking on their behalf did not consult any of them and they have never told him to represent their interests. Why are you finding it so hard to keep your agitation among Igbos? Why are you always looking for partners? Is it because the South East is small, landlocked and comparatively barren in resources and you covet the resources of other people? That shows you are not confident in your Biafran aspirations if you must attach yourself to other people for your Biafra project to work. Unfortunately for you, Nigerians are quite Igbophobic, including our Niger Delta neighbors, and I can assure you they want nothing to do with your Biafran dream.
That is different from what you asserted earlier. You might have the right to agitate for your self-determination. That is different from asserting the right to self-determination which is what you said before. The latter case is a delusional pipe dream. No country in the world, no matter how "civilized" and advanced grants the right to self-determination to any group that agitates for it. You don't have a right to self-determination. You have the right to agitate and make your case and consult with your partners in the Nigerian project who can then debate whether it is in everyone's interest to dissolve the union. That is how it works in every country. 1 Like |
