With the exception of Lagos colony you were not different from the rest of us.

The Yorubas had big cities all over. Same as the north and SS.

The SE was effectively unexplored. The Ijaws even kept SEasterners as domestic slaves up to the early 1900s.

Below is a picture of an Ijaw man, his kids and slaves (nude). You can see the Ibo anklets and ichafu (Obi's gele) on the head of the naked girls.

Amotolongbo:
I have always been seeing the bolded. Please can you clarify how the bolded part happened?

As minister of finance, Chief Awolowo's ministry paid £20 only to those former Biafrans whose account records were lost, and to those who held their bank balances in Biafran Pounds.
Since they could not prove how much they had in their accounts, they got a blanket £20. That money was a gift from Nigeria. Those former Biafrans who could prove their account balances received all their monies.

The late Senator Arthur Nzeribe is an example of an Igbo who could prove his account balances. All former Biafrans who had accounts in banks outside the Eastern Region got access to all their funds after the war. The late Chief Alex Ekwueme is an example of this.

In every part of NIgeria, Igbos got their abandoned property back, except in Rivers, where their own fellow Igbo speaking peoples, who somehow say they are not Igbos, seized their property.

Also, there were cases of seized abandoned property in modern day Benue. But it did not happen elsewhere.

Chief Alex Ekwueme is again an example of this. Although he was not really friends, per se, with the recently departed Otunba Subomi Balogun, they lived close to each other. Just before the outbreak of the civil war, Alex Ekwueme left Lagos for the Eastern Region, like most prudent Igbos.

After the war, he returned to Lagos and, surprisingly, met his house in a renovated condition. While he was wondering what happened, his neighbour, Mr. Subomi Balogun, approached him and gave him his back rent in cash.

Chief Ekwueme's children are still alive and can attest to this.

Put yourself in Awolowo’s shoes. Many of the banks in the then Eastern Region had been destroyed. The accounts were in Biafran pounds. Records were lost. And even the banks deliberately destroyed records for fear of being punished for holding Biafran currencies, which had been declared a crime of economic sabotage against Nigeria by General Gowon's government.

Furthermore, after the war, Awolowo paid the Eastern states all their monies from the Federation Account from 1967-1970. He invested it and returned it to them, for which he was acknowledged by SG Ikoku, the Commissioner for Economic Development in East Central State, in the Daily Times of May 22, 1971.

Every family in former Biafra owes a debt of gratitude to the late Chief Obafemi Awolowo. But sadly, many parents who should have taught their children this documented history have instead filled them with hatred by regaling them with wartime propaganda.

These records are still available.

In addition, majority of them don't even have up to £5 in their accounts but still got the £20.

And who told you he is an iGBO man? ....

I saw how you want to put a fight between South South and South East and withdraw yourself to enjoy their fight....

Typical of who you are what what you can offer...
The hatred and animosity on IGBOS didn't start today, it started from your grand fathers, so it is not because of any coastal road that you are vomiting this hatred without proper reasoning but it runs in your blood...

We are talking about spending a whooping sum of #11trillion for just one road construction....

And am now finding out that it is no longer a BOT job but to be self funded by Federal Government, the same Federal Govt crying there is no fund....

Who did we offend in Nigeria ?

Is either this road will be used against someone politically in the rear future and the person is felling he belongs to the inner circle or that the road will enrich some Politicians for now...

Nobody is saying the road should not be constructed , am of the opinion that something unique should be built, but the question is, is this the right time?

There are roads now that takes one from Calabar to Lagos... isn't it?

How has federal Govt maintained the roads

There was a thread where one monicker was showing pictures of coastal roads in US, South Africa, UK ,etc....

Did he check the interior city roads or the roads that one can take to reach the destination the coastal roads provided are

Let me leave you here, heal from your hatred first ..

sonature is indeed an Ibo man. Where is the lie?

Some of you are unredeemable tribalist. You need to study history. Awolowo was the brain behind the blockade of the eastern region during the civil war that led to the starvation of Igbo children. Secondly he was the Finance Minister when he decided on the £20 policy that made the SE lose all their savings after the war.

I might be Yoruba but when I see the truth I will say it. If it were you would you vote for him? It was personal against Awo.

It was their choice to vote Peter Obi in 2023. How is that a crime. He was the youngest and most technical and I know Igbo guys that supported Osinbajo until he lost primaries. Rest.

So in all the candidates that contested Obi was the youngest. Why do you Ibos lie with so much confidence?
We all know you ibos wanted Osibanjo because he was a light weight that can't win elections. You calculation is that APC would be out of the game when and if they field Osibanjo which you people always insult and curse out anyway all through Buhari's tenure prior to the election period.

According to US Intel, Ojukwu starved his own people by refusing lsnd border crossing of food supplies. He wanted to keep flying food in via air where weapons were being smuggled in by France.

Even Zik had to beg France to stop aiding the rebels which fell in deaf ears.

Make una stop Listening to radio biafria and Nnamdi Kanu's tribalistic wailing.

You are Ibo. Be proud of your tribe and drop the "I am Yoruba deceit". Nairalanders are not babies. Too much inferiority complex dey worry you.

Up to 10% of Ibos do not even have £20, but they all got £20, and this is even after Ojukwu looted Banks in Benin and the Midwest to steal money. The rich ibos who did not change their money to the worthless Biafria tissue paper got all their money back.

As for Reno he is public figure his own will be bad, because Interpol and FBI will fish him out and he will face firing squad as well.

Nnamdi Kanu did worse. Don't mistake pushback from other tribes as attack on ibos. Ibos would attack first and start crying when other tribes return the favour.
