If the rulers of Nigeria are wise, they must rise now and call for a national conference or even implement the one GEJ invoked because it's almost too late.

No one needs to be a political scientist to understand that we are next after Cameroun. If Cameroun with its pact with France couldn't use their influence to stop their breakup is it Nigeria that can do so?

If Ambazonia that does not have half the population, resources, global reach and influential personalities of Igbos can score such diplomatic goal is it Igbos that can't achieve same once all its people join the agitation??

That's a food for thought!!

GMBuhari:
Who feeds you these lies ?? get some motherfucking education on international relations

White house can not just make a phone call to a soverign nation and give them orders

you people suuuuccckkkkk really and it pisses the life out of sane people

Lol, you're obviously delusional but you don't know it.

I don't know why you chose to live in denial when the truth is staring at you.

Why you are so adamantly living in denial over facts you can easily verify is what baffles me, and to think you claim to be educated? SMH!

SamJed:
Bro calm down...no be by mouth....what I meant is that ambazonia has not officially been declared independent...also white house can't dismantle Nigeria or Cameron with a phone call...if its that, it would have happened since

You're obviously not current. Right now, as we speak, Paul Biya has ordered his army out of Ambazonia and the area is now under UN supervision pending handover to the locals.

Cameroun is forever broken up!
CAF and FIFA will soon have a new competitor!
AU now has a new member!

And lastly, Nigeria is the next country to follow suit!!

duro4chang:
Afraid ? Who is afraid of who ? Which indepence are you talking about ?

I have sampled the opinion of some influential people from the North, and I can tell you with all sincerity that many are afraid right now!

I have suddenly become afraid too because when I remember that Nigeria as we used to know it since 1919 will soon go extinct and we are about to lose the bragging right of being Africa's textbook giant and it's making me to feel somehow.

If you are truly a Nigerian and you're not afraid of what is coming then you're living in a fool's paradise!

TUANKU:
You have been watching the mood of about 200 million people? Tell me the mood of the woman in okitipupa who sells bush meat but has no smartphone, or the mood of the woman in ogoja who sells palmwine.
It's too early in the day for this nonsense.

It seems you don't understand how things work in a modern world. The "mood of the woman that sells bush meat in Okitipupa" is not decisive because she and her likes are apparently apolitical and uninfluential. However, the politicians and learned people from Okitipupa are on social media, you can find them on Facebook, Twitter, nairaland etc. and their mood is that of fear and trepidation.

Even I as well was shocked to discover that Ambazonia has gained independence and all it took was just A PHONE CALL FROM WHITE HOUSE

SamJed:
I don't think this is true

You don't think that what is true?

That White House can dismantle Cameroun with just a phone call?

That the same phone call can be made to Aso rock and they will have no choice but to comply?

That Nigeria is breakable and can be broken up faster and easier than you ever imagined?

What exactly are you still in doubt of??

nku5:
So far I've noticed disbelief and shock. The concept that Nigeria is not indivisible is too much for many people to accept but thats the reality. We are in that era when borders are being realigned all over the world

The shock and bewilderment, even out right denial because many were calling it fake news was amusing to me.

Many have bought into their own lies that Nigeria is indivisible and no foriegn power can tell Aso rock what to do in its own internal affairs but just one phone call, I MEAN ONE PHONE CALL FROM WHITE HOUSE and Paul Biya complied immediately

Cameroun was given just 72 hours to leave Ambazonia and Paul Biya ordered his troops out immediately!

So they must have realized that a phone call from White House to Aso rock can equally dismantle Nigeria within 72 hours and that reality is too disturbing for them to accept

I have been watching the mood of Nigerians since news broke out that Ambazonia has gained independence and all I can observe is shock, disappointment and utter fear.

Now my question is, why are Nigerians suddenly afraid??

Imagine that IPOB decides to take up arms and Nigeria decides to roll out tanks against them and thereby causing massive refugee problem and avoidable deaths, then people like Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, that Igbo man who is the president of ICC and millions of Igbos globally mounting serious freeBiafra campaign and the UN wouldn't get involved immediately??

Nnamdi Kanu is already penetrating diplomatic circles in US and Israel, and some guys still believe that Nigeria can't breakup?

Remember it took only a phone call from White House ordering Paul Biya to withdraw his troops from Ambazonia within 72 hours and he complied immediately

caleboxylic:
Biafra loading.
God bless Igbo land.

The next new country is certainly going to be Biafra. There is no where on earth where injustice and wickedness against a section of a country lasted forever. Check records USSR, Sudan, Ethiopia, Yugoslavia and now Cameroun. They all broke up ultimately! Nigeria has even fought a civil war where millions died and you think the world would look on to allow massive bloodshed to take place even when records and everything would have shown that Biafrans has suffered lots of indignities in Nigeria.

Why do you think the Northerners have never sponsored any more riot in their region? Because they know that such is very risky now that Igbos are mounting a serious campaign to breakaway from Nigeria.

The moment presidency is retained in the North or West, that would be the last straw that will break up Nigeria.

Lol, only a phone call from White House gave Paul Biya 72 hours to evacuate his soldiers and he obeyed immediately because he understood what was going to follow next. Now ask yourself, which Nigerian president will refuse a similar call if it was made at Aso rock??

The funny thing is that Paul Biya even granted all the wishes of the Ambazonians after accepting the break up. Same faith awaits Nigeria, for a long time now there has been calls for greater autonomy to the regions as well as fairness to all but the Fulani controlled Nigeria refused to heed common sense.

If the Ambazonians with less resources, man power, global influence and reach than the Igbos could succeed, is it Igbos that can't

It's a shame how these guys destroyed Nigeria out of greed and selfishness. God knows I would have preferred Nigeria if there was justice and fairness to all but we can't continue going in circles forever. Biafra has become inevitable!!

Nigeria that could not even challenge or fight for Bakassi peninsula and now 24 local governments is the one that will challenge the UN when Biafra is finally granted autonomy.

Accept it, Nigeria is a weak third world African country so stop comparing it with super power countries that can challenge the UN.

Hahaha, this is for those that believe Nigeria can't be broken up. After all the initial gra gra by Cameroun, Ambazonia is having the last laugh. The same fate awaits Nigeria in the near future. Biafra will have the last laugh.

You guys think Nigeria is a super power abi? Wait until we get to the point where UN will mandate the federal government to agree on a referendum and accept the outcome and see if there is any president who would be stvpid enough to go against them.

asha80:
Why are we going to through this wastage again?

Putting the cart before the horse. What has he achieved already that will warrant spending scarce resources on image laundring?

Rubbish!!

We must continue to dig into the archives and be exposing all the attrocities these barbarians committed against defenceless people.

I'm not talking about fighting with combatants but the mass killing of children, women and men who were non combatants.

Nigeria can't have all these bloods crying and ever develop.

This is so terrible and wicked. They claimed to be fighting for the reunification of the country yet they were busy committing the worst ethnic cleansing ever known in the world since the Jewish Holocaust.

All those that fought on the Nigerian side were men without conscience. If these animals in human form were normal, they would have at least limited their aggression on Biafran combatants alone.

Why would they bomb churches, schools and hospitals?

Why would they rape Biafran women and girls?

Why shoot at planes bringing relief materials like drugs and proteinous foods for dying refugees?

Was Biafrans declaration not justified considering the state sanctioned pogrom that took place in northern Nigeria?

Despite all these attrocities that have been meted out on Igbos, some re.tards will still open their putrid mouths to ask why Igbos are hating on this useless country.

Igbos deserve to curse this useless and worthless contraption, and hate it to oblivion!!!

All those that committed those crimes against humanity on Igbos will never have peace!!!

Iamgrey5:
[s]which useless elder

Ojukwu declared Biafra because of oil found in minority land

Or why did you think Minorities worked to sabotage your efforts and even claimed your properties after the war [/s]

Your low IQ is mind boggling indeed. A coup that was committed by men of different ethnicities was labeled an Igbo coup (a classic case of calling a dog a bad name in order to hang it) then a counter coup was committed by a section of the country and a pogrom against Easterners were endorsed by the ruling class. If the killings had been limited to only Igbos and Eastern minorities in the army, it would have been a little understandable but instead tens of thousands of Igbos including pregnant women and children were massacred in cold blood while the government gave tacit support to the arsonists. Then if you're to be in the shoes of Ojukwu you will ignore it all and pretend that all is well?

Don't you know that there were hundreds of thousands of survivors who ran back to the East and there was massive anger??

Don't you know that Ojukwu consulted the Eastern regional house assembly that comprised of Igbos and minorities and they overwhelmingly voted for the declaration of Biafrans??

Lazy and ignorant people like you are trying to rewrite history even when you're obviously handicapped to do so.

It will continue to haunt them until they make reparations for all the attrocities they committed against the Biafrans that were only defending their right to life.

Biafra that care, what have dey done?
Pls tell me one tangible action u av done...


Currently, we gonna pass all ur gas to lagos state...

Yorubas Dont need noise... We will do all we need without making noise even when Nigeria goes separate, we will always be the boss...

Imo is currently passing her natural gas to lagos.. After then, we gonna drain Abia... Drain the SE wel well.... Then we can go for each republic...


Pls try stop us....[/s]

Look at the low mentality dimwits that call themselves fellow Southerners. They are so myopic and self destructive for their own good. This ezi ohia is saying that Lagos is using the gas from Imo and oil from Abia yet he forgot that the oil from Ondo is also being drained and sent to Abuja. Even when they are exported, the proceeds are also allocated more to the north through bogus population, states and local governments.

Useless people!

The Indian company should pay the villagers their due money immediately. What nonsense, you can't commit manslaughter and still refuse to pay. They are the geese that lays the golden egg!!

When Mbaise people retaliate now the supreme Court governor will go and pay compensation to the terrorist herdsmen.

MrBrownJay1:
all you ignorant fools are deluded brainwashed sheep.... use what you have between your ears, the only reason you dont see me writing on muslim thread is because I CANT unless i claim to be a muslim (which i certainly aint), duh! but all your gods are useless whether xtians, muslim or buddhist.

For calling me names and insulting me for no reason. I won't join you in the gutter but would rather report you for being a nuisance to sane people.

Marine54:
Aboki ! That my state Akwa ibom, our alliance with the ibo is non negotiable.....

Thank you for putting the impostor in his place. How afonjas are supporting the abo.kis to continue making this country useless is what baffles me.

Shameless people.

The struggle for Biafra restoration seems to be gathering more traction of late. IPOB have taken over Facebook, Twitter, Nairaland and other social media sites. They are also drawing attention to Biafra at every given opportunity globally.

Biafrans are everywhere and they love their nation!

All these closet atheists mocking Christians at every given opportunity yet they can't even criticize Islam due to fear.

stanluiz:
Mod push this to the front page let the people know the truth.

Except you're calling on the unbiased mods because if it is that known afonja bigot, he will never move it to the front page but if it were about how Igbos or a Biafran soldier killed minorities during the war, you will see it on the front page before you're done typing.

At the end of the war, all his mates from the north were compensated with oil blocks while he was unceremoniously dismissed. Even Igbos that left the Nigerian army to fight for Biafra weren't humiliated like that.

He latter died miserably, sad and totally broke.

Nonaira1:
Seriously na today una learn this.

Do you all not remember his infamous interview?

In that interview, the white guy told him that most of the people he captured and holding as prisoner as well as killing are not igbo. The ugly goat stated he doing so "incase their igbo among them. " That Savage clown killed off minorities more than igbo and he did so cause he "wants to kill off igbos living among them. " when he stepped his foot in SE, he was defeated and demoted

He lived a miserably life and died a miserably death for a reason. Karma caught up with him..

You're right. I also remember the infamous statement made by the psycho where he said he will shoot at everything both moving and unmoving things when he gets to the Igbo heartland.

He together with Obasanjo were in control of the third marine commando that attacked Biafra from the coastal areas.

Imagine how an afonja soldier massacred Ibiobio chiefs during the civil war even in a non confrontational situation yet some re.tar.ded "we the South South" opened a thread to complain about how Igbos evacuated their village when it was under attack by that Nigerian army. If Igbos had left them at the perilous time, they would have been saying nonsense on how we abandoned them to be killed.

Nothing the Igbos will do that will satisfy them.

Built2last:
[s]Anytime I discuss with people and say that an Oduduwa Republic will have more advantages to succeed as an independent nation, they ask me for reasons. On my wall and inbox people asked me the same question when I made that post yesterday about Igbos being those who feel most confident of succeeding as an independent country.

Here are the advantages the Southwest has:

1. The Southwest has direct and wide access to the sea through Lagos, Ogun and Ondo.

2. Even though there are small non-Yoruba ethnic groups like Egun, Ilaje, etc in the Southwest, the Southwest is homogenous. Yoruba is the key ethnic group. Even the non-Yorubas speak it and use Yoruba names. So there will be less conflict on language.

3. The Southwest already has a functional seaport.

4. It already has a functional international airport.

5. The Southwest already has all the multinationals in Nigeria within its domain.

6. It already has all the embassies/high commissions within its domain.

7. It already has the biggest commercial city (Lagos).

8. The Southwest is not opposed to education, modernity, technology, etc. So it will have no problem joining the progressive world.

9. The Southwest is success-driven and competitive. So it will always find ways to make its land better.

10. The Southwest is very religious-tolerant. Even though Christianity and Islam are virtually of equal population among the people, the Southwest does not practise religious extremism.

11. The Southwest has wide, fertile land for agricultural production, industrial estates, game reserves, recreational parks, etc.

However, in all my discussions with friends from the Southwest, I have not seen any zeal from them on the issue of having an independent Southwest country. It is not seen as the focus of the Southwest.

What I have heard and seen as a dream in the Southwest is to have a kinsman from a political party endorsed by the Southwest political elite like the APC (like Osinbajo, Tinubu, Fashola, Fayemi, etc) as President of Nigeria as quickly as possible. Then there is a second group that wants restructuring of Nigeria as the solution.

Each ethnic group has what drives it at every point in time. The Igbos don't have some of the advantages the Southwest has. But the Igbos strongly believe that their lives will be better, safer and happier when they have their own independent country. The Igbos believe that given the way Nigeria has been going, staying in Nigeria will deny them the opportunities to reach the height they dream about. It is like what happens in companies. One employee will dream about becoming a director or CEO of the company, while another will dream of exiting to start his own company, believing that he will surpass his present company in due course. Whether it works out for each of them like that is another kettle of fish.

Then there is a second Igbo group that believes that Igbos' best interest lies in a restructured Nigeria.

Before independence, Igbos were the strongest apostles of the one-Nigeria mantra. No prominent Igbo person wanted a separate country outside Nigeria. Even Ojukwu was an unapologetic apostle of One Nigeria.

While the North and West were always talking about exiting Nigeria or adding clauses in support of exit, the East wanted a united Nigeria with no clauses. Why? The Igbos believed that with the exit of the British, the new nation would present opportunities for the survival of the fittest. They believed that in such a contest in the public service and commerce, they would excel. However, the ethnic-based massacres of 1966 and the silence or tacit support of the massacre by most Nigerians shocked the Igbos and made them want to get out of Nigeria, because they felt that it was obvious that they were not wanted in Nigeria anymore. They also no longer felt safe in Nigeria.

That attempt to leave Nigeria was resisted, leading to the ugly War. Having lost the War, the Igbos returned to Nigeria with the desire to help in building a new country. However, Nigeria has increasingly remained a land where things are not done on merit, a land of crushed dreams, a land that gladly destroys itself and its citizens, a land of ethnic pettiness and weird reasoning. It has been frustrating the Igbos, and they feel trapped in a hole where they cannot exercise their God-given talents in full. So, ruling Nigeria is not their ultimate dream, as it is obvious that it will not give them the expected opportunities for self-actualization.

It is like when an employee of a company has a burning idea and he is being enticed to stay on with higher salaries and positions. That idea will continue to burn in his mind until he goes out to bring that idea to fruition.

The Igbos don't want to fight a war. They believe that living together as citizens of Nigeria is creating perennial friction among the peoples, leading to deaths, backwardness, poverty, anger and quarrels. And that is not their idea of having a country[/s].

Another tales by moonlight. Lol, afonjas can be so ridiculous. What is all these hype about having access to the sea as if that is all that can make a country prosperous. My dear, Somila, Yemen, Namibia, Congo, Eritrea etc all have vast coastline yet they are all wreched countries.

So, even when you guys are religiously heterogeneous compared to Igbos that are hundred percent Christians. Even MURIC is already threatening and spitting fire that afonja Muslims will not allow afonja Christians to use their head.

What about your kiriji wrestling matches that happened for so many years until the British used Nigeria to save you from yourself yet at no time were the Igbos fighting themselves or even their neighbors rather it was when the British came that some parts of Igboland revolted against them.

What about ilorin, will you fight to have it back or abandon it to the caliphate?

What about the 25 miles radius corridor to the Atlantic awo the ratak snifer conceded to the gambaris?

All these your propaganda has become childish because we will continue to destroy it with superior argument!

I don't why this man is so shameless. How can an old man like remain an efulefu? At least there is a certain age one will get to and money won't be a priority again but for this efulefu, it is still money all the way while common sense takes flight. The same Enugu airport Buhari closed than for long while working on other airports is what this efulefu is talking about and even posting a fake picture for.

How many Hausa people have come out to praise Buhari for rebuilding Kano airport? How many afonjas has come out to thank Buhari for Lagos airport?? But look at this old efulefu praising Buhari for locking the only International airport in Igboland for so long
