okay....i cant know everything about what happened back then....
but i understand human nature....

lets go back....shall we....
what was back then....??

vietnam war....!!
people around the world were tired after ww2....they didnt want no more....

i can imagine nigeria tried to play good fellow as they are doing today....

somebody said on this thread,that it was ojukwu that rejected food aid from nigeria because of poison....

truth is urhobos poisoned biafran soldiers....
and if its true that biafran soldiers were keepin the aid to themselves,then its no surprise that civilians died....

war is nasty....

From one lie to another.

Abeg when did Nigeria play good fellows. So who was then playing the bad fellow?

All pictures like this does is to reinforce in the mind of Ndiigbo why republic of Igbo land must be established, lest the sacrifices of our fathers be in vain.
It also increases the hate we have for Nigeria and those enforcing fake citizenry on us.

OP. I don't know your aim of sharing those pics, but the above is only what you will achieve with them.

This is not the aim and maybe you should ask yourself why these pictures would make you feel hate and not regret and more determined never to see another war

Nigeria, currently is a killing field. Are you aware a Commander was shot dead recently in Zamfara? What good has Nigeria done to her citizen?
The country should split in peace, we are not designed to be one, not at all.

The pictures only shows me what our enemies are capable of, what they had done in the past, what they are planning to do in the future, and why we must fight tooth and nail to raise a national boundary between us and them to keep their hate at bay.
The only regret this picture evokes in an Igbo, is the regret that we have not been able to make those who put us through those experiences pay for it, we have not been be able to exact our own pound of flesh.

Seeing those pics reminds us why We MUST work harder to put ourselves in a position where those who brought such sufferings to our parents, and now dance on their graves, are made to feel a potent dose of their own poison.

That's the only regret these pics evokes in an Igbo. Its a strong feeling of need for REVENGE, to GET EVEN!

they no wan listen....starting a war today is madness....
maybe na too much film dey cause am.

They don't know what is scarcity, famine and epidemic.

They dont know what having not to be able to sleep at night because thats when air and ground raids are likely to be carried out by the enemies.

They don't know the damages a small group of armed touts can do. Some with the aim of raping anything they see.

They dont know how life is in a refugee camp especially when your African neighbors dont even like you at first before the war starts.

Restructuring Nigeria is a must.

But war should never be mentioned because it will be a mutual assured destruction for everyone.

Lol, you're still refusing to admit to your mistake.
Both you Igbos and the Fulanis destroyed the foundation of this country

Abeg your people are the ones who destroyed the foundation of this country. Nigeria is not the first country to experience a coup. America, Spain, sweden, switzerland, the great china and other great countries have fought one or two military coups. But their country is far better than yours. Do you know what makes a great country? I'll tell you.

Capable, sensible,smart, intelligent leaders with a very good understanding of how a normal country should be. Your people flood the political space of Nigeria but it's a pity that they are completely opposite of those qualities of a leader. To make it worse,they are theives looting and milking the country dry.

So the next time you try to blame nndigbo, remember those completely useless people in aso rock.

Ojukwu was a prophet. We are now seeing the reason why he called for separation. It's almost 60 years now and nndigbo are still regretting why they didn't leave Nigeria then.

Which kind prophet? Is it the one that led the poor Igbos to war and ran away with all his family members.

OP, honestly, at this point in time, you are not doing us good by sharing these pictures here. See how Yorubas and their partners in mockery have already flooded the thread to heap insults on Igbos. As if the Majors that executed a coup did it in the name of Igbos.
See how they are already blaming Ojukwu, as if he did not explore means of peaceful existence both home and abroad, before Gowon reneged on all pact agreed, because he had the backing of the Brits.
They will not mention how Gowon fired the first shot at Garkem, and invaded the East, to start the war. But their usual hate for Igbos, will always blind them to heap insults and blame Igbos, for a war they did not start. Any way, any sane human, with a brain in his head, will have a rethink if this war, was ever necessary, because the state of the nation is even worst than it has ever been.
God willing, a day will come when this contraption will split, as it is, whether the Brits and those benefiting from it like it or not.

This image should remain in the archives, and not for a forum as this.

You are wrong there. People have a choice. Its only trees and plants that dont have a choice.
Animals migrate when conditions are not favourable. History is rife with such instances.
In fact God instructed his prophets to migrate in some instances.

After many years of this terrible evil against the Igbos what is happening today. Are the Igbos not living fine and at the Hem of the national economy. Are the Igbos not buying up Yoruba Lands and establishing colony outside their home state. Are the Igbos not all over the world doing well. But look at the Yoruba and Hausa race. Malnutrition and poverty everywhere. Don't touch a man that is so blessed by God, you can only destroy his garment but not his destiny.

Let us all agree that Nigeria isn't perfect infact it's all we have got. Yes there is serious marginalization but there is also love... Yes there is religious hate but there is also understanding. separation isn't the answer as we are all bound by karma that made us all be born as Nigerians so let us find a way to make it work.

I was moved to tears viewing these pictures ,please never again should we allow hate grow so much that it results in a war again.

All that is passing away naturally. You need to read my threads for more spiritual enlightenment.

Every thing passes through 3 stages in life , birth maturity and death . Everything follows these spiritual laws. All empires rose , matured and fell. The roman , carthage, greek , Armenian, british , the fulani is next .

If I had told you 15 years ago the Arab spring was possible you would have said never arabs obey islam to death. But it happened. The change will sweep across Nigeria soonest but we won't divide. A change will come in the form of protest not planned but it will sweep across Nigeria following the natural course of things and the tribes lower will rise and lead Nigeria to a new height .

A new Nigeria will be born , where the child of a nobody can be some body .

All will change anew and the Nigeria you dreamt of would be a reality

I've actually made a little thread about it though....



Since I was young I've been lucky to see these pictures....but I never felt so touched till a certain time I watched a video about the war and I saw the terrible effects .....
Well, I cried .....and I told myself that there's simply no God ....
Because I know even if it's only a grain of rice my mom has, she'll sacrifice and let me eat it why she starves till whenever she gets food....same with my dad....
But why can't a god who's said to be loving and all caring take care of those he called his children....huh!....
Even if he wanted to punish those people at least he could have let the only the adults suffer but not the little children ....okay see those little children with bloated stomachs suffering from kwashiorkor......
Mehn!!!
It's a really crazy stuff I hate to talk about....
The excuse a colleague of mine said was that God punished them cos they were worshipping idols.....omo I wan mad....life TF was he saying.....

What a lie. History has it that the supply of food to nndigbo from Nigeria was blocked. How then did food enter for ojukwu to reject?

Sometimes, the uselessness of Nigeria tends to have a mental effect of those who believe in the country. Don't you think? How can ojukwu starve the people he was fighting for? undecided
They are tell you yorubas part of history.
they are known revisionist.


The same nigeria that was bombing down markets in biafra land.targeting planes bring food and medical supple to biafran.

The same people that always brag how Awolowo won the war for them by introducing blockage.
