Let me engage you in a civil manner. First of all, I am not Igbo I am from the Niger Delta. So you feel that if a war breaks again the outcome will be like that of the 1967 - 1970 civil war? Alliances will be formed with several countries, and I dare say we would have the situation going on Libya right now with no victor or vanquished.

there will be a blockade again.

privaldo:
Any war in any part of Southern Nigeria will definitely affect the whole South, even if the South-South and the South-West tries to avoid it.

He is obviously ignorant. Any war again in Nigeria will definitely affect every part of the country. If anything, the epicenter will be Lagos and attempts to control oil wells and platforms in the Niger Delta.

The type of Biafran/Nigeria civil war of 1967-70 can't be fought again because there are no regional governments anymore. Instead it would be a guerilla warfare happening in different places at the same time, just like in Libya.

It would be spontaneous and What will trigger it is something like another endsars protest in the South or herdsmen killings.

Blockade against who or which section?

That's exactly what he doesn't understand, no part of the country will be safe. Several international actors like Russia and Turkey who are looking to dominate and enhance their presence in Africa, are ready to fund several militias at the same time to achieve their aim, it will be a pure state of emergency, and there will be excessive loss of lives. He shouldn't pray for what he doesn't understand because he feels it won't affect the South-West.

What kind of blockade? If you are referring to the one placed on the South-East during the war then I am here to tell you it would fail, this is 2020, and wars are not fought like in the 1960s. A blockade will only bring pity and more support to them militarily, and also in form of humanitarian support. We all should pray that no war breaks out because it would hard to quell for even the armed forces who are already overstretched no thanks to Boko Haram. Another thing will be more ethnic groups will begin agitations for a breakup, so it will probably escalate than you are currently imagining.

Coronabirus:
This Igbo generation need to know the consequences of war, keyboard warriors calling war need to ask their forefathers or ask North-East people about the disaster entail in war. If someone can be afraid of Operation python dance then definitely they can't bear the thunderous monster 40-barrel sweeping entire community in few minutes. Visiting North and asking for forgiveness for the recent massacre of northerners and destruction of their properties is a welcome development but the elders need to warn them against further attacks. I pity those calling for war!

Lol. You think we're like some weak as men without the capability to understand how to put with your imminent attacks? This thread is aimed at weighing how successful you guys think you've been in pacifying the SE. We're just looking at you. IPOB remains formidable all around the world and even the recent events has endeared more Biafrans to the cause. Continue gauging us... Igbos wll be the last group of people to give in to terrorists.

Majority of southerners are not strategic. This thread is aimed at weighing how successful they've been in pacifying the SE. With the way Wike fell hook line and sinker thereby showing them that a crack exists between the SE and the SS, they'll want to capitalise on it hence they're prodding further on the SE but our politicians can't see this. Smart people from the SS and SW who are leaders but non politicians can see the plan and know that any attack against any group in the south is an attack against the whole South and it will weaken the South in general if allowed to go unchallenged. I consistently hammered on this during the ENDSARS protest. The caliphate was stunned for the first time seeing the successes of that move hence they're presently running after organizers of a simple protest arresting and blocking their accounts in a supposed democracy. I'm glad the youth of the south have seen power of working together. The single thing that reduced the momentum of that united move was the hijacking of the arson that followed which was later accused on the Igbos by the same oppressors we wanted to dethrone. How our fellow southerners bought that accusation remains a shock to some of us. It's good commonsense prevailed among the Yorubas later but the steam had left the movement at this time.
My point is that the key to southern emancipation is the total rejection of any attempt of those terrorists at isolating any constituent group of the south. To see how dangerous those people are, they always look for a way to use people from your own region to fight you thereby removing themselves from public view. In the middlebelt while killing Benue people and the southern Kaduna people, their spokesman will be Paul Unongo and Anthony Sani. In the South West, they used Akintola to set off the wild wild West and thereafter put Awolowo in jail in the East. Thereafter, they boasted that the conquest of the west had been completed despite Akintola still being alive at the time. This is why soldiers of eastern origin intervened but some how history was turned upside down and Igbos weŕe attacked by all. You can notice how they push Gowon in the front and remained the brain behind. Today fools like Wike is yet to understand the game. After Gowon foolishly used his own Benue-Plateau people to prosecute the war, he was kicked out by the same people. This is when Gowon's brothers noticed what happened. Dimka made sure he sent that snake to the great beyond. T.Y Danjuma only realized after they came for his own people and he cried out. The wild dogs with whom he forged had turned on his own people which is the characteristic of these people. If the could do so to the people with whom they have a contiguous border, what do you think they'd do to Wike and Magnus Abe after they finish using them? Southern politicians are very foolish politically. Until they see their own immediate homes burning, they don't get the point.
In the SE, it's been very difficult for them to get anyone because of the nature of the people there. They tried using Okorocha but it failed but they managed to put the supreme court governor there. We're still watching him. They are trying to use Orji Uzor Kalu and presently Umahi is walking into their grasp. We're watching them. Our people are very vigilant and know where to pitch our tent. How can you listen to the people who's militia are attacking your villages but they refused you to form a regional security outfit and themselves refused to go after the attackers? That's gross foolishness. The height of it is the same people asking you to reject an independent organization which organically came up from your own people and is self funded. How stupid will you be to listen to them? Sometimes I question the brain of some set of black people.
For the SS, they've got you as they want... scattered in different states with weak voices. They will negotiate with each state government... of course the state government will be the weaker side in that negotiation. After that they'll still use his opposition in the same state to bring him down if they don't kill him. The next fool will be negotiated with and process repeated until the state is conquered. This is how Nassarawa state was taken over. They're doing the same in Plateau at present. Simon Lalong had their blessing to become the governor hence he felt he ought to be loyal to them. Unknown to him, he's been used to take over the state. They'll finish up Wike in such manner after using him. While he's looking at them as fellow country men, they're looking at him like a conquered servant and an able willing tool. Notice how Rivers state will gain nothing from his current romance with them.
In conclusion, isolation has always been the way a predator successfully hunt in the midst of a herd of buffalos. Whenever the buffalos stick together, the predator starves. Will southern leaders learn?

I agree with you an attack on any of the Southern regions is an attack on all. The South never truly learns from history but who knows, we might learn the hard way. I have never believed a Southern Unity was possible until during the #EndSars protests but now I know that the new generation is different, we may need to wait another decade to even work together as one, so that men used in causing division may have that or become old by then.
