Neddstark: First of all it was not an Igbo coup as you tribal bigots would believe Nigeria was in a state of corruption and anarchy wore the coup struck qnd that was the main motive behind the coup believe or not and it was never intended to make ironsi head of state infact he was on the list of the coup plotters to be killed,and also your facts are biased we wanted biafra cause we were persecuted and it was not safe for us in Nigeria Thirdly Russia did not exist then what existed was the Soviet union. Fourthly Britain and Soviet Union supported Nigeria cause of selfish interest. America was officially neutral during the conflict,the then American president, Richard Nixon called it a genocide,and either you have lost your sense of Humanity or you are just deliberately lying to yourself that there wasn't a genocide in biafraland, biafraland was never a rogue nation it was a success in three war time years we became the most technologically advanced black people on earth in three war time years we were able to achieve technologically what the zoo Nigeria has not achieved in more than 50 years of peace time |

Myhusband:hahahahahahaha bro. The way igbos talk on the internet, you would think they are Europeans or they were the first to land in moon Even the way they chestbeat about that biafra, you would think once they get it, all igbos leaders will stop stealing their wealth, or all igbos will automatically stop prostitution, baby factory, drugs or scam They will tell you how biafra will be better than America and how Japan will bow at their feet.. the same igbos and SE I know Reason why I pray gov't should give them their biafra I want to see that America they want to build.. You will hear them shouting marginalization and when how ask how they are marginalized, they can't answer.cause what I know is that none place and region is working in Nigeria. They will tell you that it is their turn to be president and when you tell them to demand for presidential ticket from their beloved PDP, they will say no that they prefer to be under a northerners as vice president You can recall how they abadoned their biafra and started shouting stimulated just because of Peter obi Why they are afraid of contesting for presidency but prefer to be under a northerners as vice president is what I don't know Later they will be the one to call SW slaves when we had already rule 8yrs |

Hexdavewalkersl: I will respond to your points. - The plotters were 90% Igbo. - Yeah Ironsi was to be killed. But he wasn't. The whole situation was used for propaganda that steered hate against the Igbos - It was not safe because of a backlash of what your military officers did. You think killing a whole prime minister will have no consequences? Have you seen Hotel Rwanda? - I used the country's present name now. Russia. - Yeah Britain preferred the Nigeria united than divided now. Is it bad t take a stance? - Just like there was a genocide in Libya as Ghadaffi didnt surrender. Or should we talk about genocide in Iraq that even went on even after Saddam was killed? It was war, if Ojukwu wanted to end the hunger, he should have surrendered since. There was no way he would have won the war with his very scarce resources. - Technologically advanced black people and till now the East is undeveloped. Technologically advanced my bumbum. 1 Like 1 Share |

Crude oil in Biafra made the History of the Biafra war get buried deep in the sand, made war criminals become heroes, and made heroes like John Lennon and others become villains. Crude oil made the Biafra genocide, which is the World's 2nd worst genocide after the Holocaust, become denied.

Neddstark:. Please try a simple search on the history of progron in Nigeria. It would be weightier if you found it yourself. Always be wary of popular opinions, they are usually for the unenlightened. Cheers. 1 Like |

Oga it was a coup Nzeogwu was selfish Acted out of the self notion that only him could cure Nigeria out of corruption So he killed The prime minister then A simple man who was loved by his people Why would someone think violence would solve anything when it would just lead to more violence And you think Northerners wouldn't retaliate The fact is Igbo people are selfish and proud. A good trait as well as their biggest flaw As for Biafra I really don't give a hoot This country would be better in factions And if we had a decentralized government Hexdavewalkersl: |

Kennyswagz1:. This will be my last reply to you because I can sense you are not very logical. And I am not trying to sound condescending. If you read me well, you'd see where I said that aside the heavy involvement of Britain, U.S., U.S.S.R. etc, even smaller nations significantly helped the Nigerian federalists. Egyptian pilots were flying Russian MiGs for the NAF. Biafra never had an army in the real sense. What it had was largely the remnants of what fell to it upon secession--former Nigerian army division, officers and men, and their ammunition and materiel. I am not sure Nigeria has the resources to prosecute a full blown war against a prepared and independent state. The Biafran officers were basically renegades and rebels, but they still held off the federalists [with all the support Nigeria got from the superpowers] for thirty [30] good months! It was an internal rebellion! If you doubt my assertion that Nigeria is not in a state to prosecute a war against an organized, independent state, just check how it has faired against ragtag Boko haram--ten [10] years and BHT is still holding expansive territories within Nigeria. Bye. P.S.: weapons decide the outcome of every war, not human hands. A man armed with an assault rifle can mow down a thousand unarmed men. Don't be a simpleton, there were foreign boots on ground on the federalist side--I told you about Egyptian pilots for our MiGs! Even against Boko haram, there were foreign boots on ground! Log off Nairaland and go get more knowledge! 3 Likes |

FemiMaduka:what about france, China, Israel,Portugal, Spain,west Germany, south africa that also supported biafra.. you are making sound like only Nigeria got support from European powers (buying of sophisticated weapons).. FYI Boko haram is a northen politically creation use as a means to loot the resources of the south.. On a normal day if not for Nigeria corruption, boko haram wouldn't take Nigeria army 1wk to be destroyed. . So you guys should stop saying you fought the world as you have all be chestbeating about.. No foreign soildiers came down to Nigeria and join Nigeria army to fight biafra.. The same help Nigeria got from European superpowers was the same help biafra got from those countries I mentioned.. Good bye |

discusant:oga which crude oil are you guys talking about If you igbos had restricted your red mud republic to your SE only region in the first place, you wouldn't have fought any war as gowon would have giving you even free transport to move back to the east.. But you guys need the coastal areas and oil of the SS, fertile land of the MB, and even their landmass as the SE is to tiny to contain 40m+ people.. And you guys even need their population because you guys are traders.. who will you sell your imported goods from China to ... reason why you will see igbos in the remotest part any where any Nigeria cause you are all economic refugees ; |
