What do you mean " allowed the enemies to make use of their territories"? You mean the former mid west should have resisted federal troops passing through their land, without having any military? What do you suggest they should have done? If the mid west had it own troops, you don't think they would have resisted invasion by biafran soldiers.

Very stupid excuses. Biafra had no business invading mid west, particularly non igbo speaking areas. It was greed and land grabbing.
go to calabar and ask the elders what Igbo's did during the war, they renamed calabar streets to "Igbo names", they treat the Eastern minorities as garbage. You will hardly find those Eastern minorities agitating for Biafra because they know what they passed through, even till today ijaw still celebrate *Biafra defeats".

Igbo's only want Biafra to dominate minorities since they can't compete with Hausa and Yoruba in Nigeria

What kanu is asking for is referendum,buhari and his followers are calling for war.
Kanu is not in any position to be asking for anything. He and his supporters are suffering from grand delusion to think he is that important.

Hope the Midwest also needed to have her own military before accepting Delta Igbo that was part of the Midwest into Civil Service jobs? And you said Midwest was neutral?

The Midwest refused to engage Delta Igbo in the Civil Service jobs, and just like the West - they provided safety to the enemies and with joy allowed the enemies to make use of their territories. How was this neutral?
Mid-west to the best of my knowledge was neutral, one can't talk about the civil war without being sentimental. I quite understand Ojukwu's plan towards the small region, like creating a buffer zone etc, but then the mid-west as at that time wasn't a threat to anyone, the region could hardly protect herself because Gowon has refused arming Ejoor for the fear of it landing into the enemies hand, the federal troops haven't carried any operation in the region before Ojukwu attacked and they left the region with nothing.

Diplomacy would have solved the problem, Not force, till date is still do not understand why Ojukwu ordered his men to bring Ejoor dead or alive? that alone created so many distrust between the two regions.

Biafra would have succeeded a long time ago had they restricted their ambitions to igbo speaking areas, but since they got greedy eying minority oil and land, it would never succeed. Minority tribes will always resist.

Ask Igbo's to go alone with their Biafra you'll see them start wailing and crying.

if other minority dont what to join biafra,then why is you yorubas and hausafulanis afraid of referendum,

a part of cameroon was part of nigeria before they joined their brothers in cameroon true referendum.


Ojukwu vice Philip Effiong was from the people you call minority.

Tinubu was a former Governor and the leader of the rolling party along with the president . He has the authority to demand anything in Nigeria.
Now, what gives Kanu the rights to make any demand for Igbo people not to talk of Nigeria.
Since he holds a British passport, he better make demands from Britain instead.

you Igbo's have two choice.

1)go with your Igbo people (south east) and form Biafra
2)remain with one Nigeria

I am from Warri, former mid west. We never agreed to join Biafra.

The issue of referendum had never come up or discussed by my people. Igbos can't force a referendum on us.

a part of cameroon was part of nigeria before they joined their brothers in cameroon true referendum.
That's another political scenario. It was a political arrangement between Britain and France on how to decide their former colonies.

Ojukwu vice Philip Effiong was from the people you call minority.
So what. Colonel Victor Banjo was the commander of biafran soldiers that invaded the mid west and West. Did that mean Yorubas supported biafra?

Neville Chamberlain Quotes. In war, whichever side may call itself the victor, there are no winners, but all are losers.

Read that line couple of times then compare the present situation of Nigeria to what it used to be.

There was no Midwest after the military coup of 1966.

Let's not forget prior to Midwest invasion, the same minorities actually were pointing out Anioma among their midst to Niggeria military to be killed even though we, at that time, was not part of Biafra and was still listed as their Nigeria. Shit I remember the story my grandma told me of how they raided her community and it wasn't even the military. All of which occurred before biafra soliders crossed that bridge into Delta State. Yeah Biafran soliders should have allowed then to wipe us off the face of the Earth. That's how those demons think.

you see what am saying,yoruba mans reasoning is always like slave mentality,

what you people claim to be practicing is Government for the people by the people and for the people.


Not government for tinubu by tinubu and for tinubu.

It will be a cold day in hell before you pigs take any Anioma territory. A fucking cold day in hell. What your ancestors couldn't do you think you can now. Try it. We dare una!!

See the fool that accused SE land grabbing doing that same thing. Try it. We dare una, you'll immediately know SE Igbos aren't the only problematic ones, just attempt to push us off our ancestry lands. We dare una

Read what you wrote and see if it made any sense.

Point out anioma people where? In anioma land itself or in other Midwest states? Which soldiers again since you said it was not the military. Who raided your community? You mean ordinary midwesterners left their towns, carried guns and raided anioma land?

Just STFU with your bullshit. Anioma elders that experienced the war are still fucking alive you demons and they tell the stories so shut the Bleep up with your rewritten attempt. It is well known the Aniomas that resided in modern day Edo state and Warri were pointed out by you goats to be slaughtered that's why several ran back home. You demonic animals were exactly like Hausa/Fulani in your bloodlust during that time. Despite Asaba genocide is the most documented, the slaughter occurred in most Anioma territories and some of it wasn't by the military. My grandmother, till this very fucking day, remember vividly what occurred that day. One thing she was confident on is It sure as hell was not the military. I'm Keen to believe her over you demons.
