While he made some good points on the state of the Nigerian nation, he is at best very idealistic on the Biafran issue. He acknowledged that multi-ethnicity is one of the problems with Nigeria yet he blatantly referred to the Niger Delta (including the many non-Igboid tribes -and even mentioning Itsekiri & Isoko) as "Southern Biafra". Such delusion and audacity are among the reasons why Biafra may never be a reality any time soon.

He said so many things; mainly utopic in nature. However, he did not state the framework for which Biafra will operate its federal structure. It is not just about granting ethnicities their own regions. That will not solve all of the problems. There are core issues that need to be addressed in a federation and he never spoke one bit about any of them. Rather he was boasting about making Lokoja a "seaport" and "dredging the river Niger". Making it seem like he is campaigning to the Tiv and other Middle Belt groups.

For someone who wants Biafra so much, he paid more attention to Nigeria, Tinubu, Mohammed, and the North. He exuded more of a personal angst and vendetta against Nigeria and Nigerians, rather than a genuine love for Biafra.


Finally... All I can say is that this interview has reinforced my conviction that the Biafra agitation, as it is now, is nothing more than blatant idealism by misguided youths, led by a delusional man whose main justification for the struggle is his hatred for the Hausa-Fulani and the "Zoo", as he puts it.

Ifeoma Nichodemus v he Sharia Court Kaduna
IFEOMA, now Aisha, is the daughter of Mr. Ndubuisi Nichodemus. She was living with her parents, in the midst of the Hausa community in Zaria, Kaduna State, until May, 2014. On that fateful evening, Ifeoma had left the house in protest against the authority of her moth­er to question her for returning late to the house on the day. She simply walked out of her parents’ compound into a neighbour’s house, and since 21 months ago to be precise, the family is yet to set their eyes on her. Ifeoma, now 16, have been converted to Islam and married off. The Sharia Court handling the mat­ter keeps adjourning the case and as a result, we are still where we were last year”
Speaking during an interview then, Ndubuisi Nichodemus, resident of Sabon-Gari, Zaria, Kaduna State, who appealed to the authorities concerned, to help rescue his daughter, allegedly in the custody of another man since 2014, said her daughter had come home late on that fateful day and felt, as responsible par­ents, she should be scolded

Rita Chinedu Ukeje V Sharia

Madam Jessy Ukeje, a 77-year-old grandmother from Eluoma Uzuakoli in Bende Local government area of Abia State, is in pains her granddaughter was given out in marriage by a top official of Zaria City Local Government area, without the consent of her family.Rita, an SS 3 student of Top Spring Secondary School, Zaria, Kaduna State, was abducted by a commercial bus driver, called Usman, who held her captive in his home, denying her the chance of sitting for the Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) she had enrolled for.

Few weeks later, she stated, the council chief, who took her to his home and promised to make her available for settlement with the family, allegedly gave her out in marriage to Usman. The incident happened in Damagaji area of Zaria in Kaduna State, even as every effort made by the family to rescue the teenage girl from the clutches of her abductors have met with stiff resistance from the kidnappers. They took her into captivity after undergoing their Muslim rituals of bathing and feeding her with concoction as a way of turning her into a Muslim.

Then, they gave her to somebody to marry without the consent and knowledge of her parents. This is certainly against religion and against tradition

Mama Jessy, who could not hold back tears while narrating the abduction of the girl in her house in Eluoma Uzuakoli, alleged further that the girl’s abductors are after Rita’s mother, Joy Ihedinma Ukeje, for insisting that Rita must be sent back to her. She alleged that they had been sending assassins to her, forcing her to quickly run back to Uzuakoli from Zaria after several attempts on her life.

Evans has held more conferences than Buhari

Evans case ain't getting of the media anytime soon especially on NairaLand

That is not a bad thing, but wat about the hypocrisy?



15 year old girl from Plateau State, Nimre Moses, who was abducted by a man identified as Aminu and taken to Katsina state has been rescued.
According to Plateau News Online, Aminu forcefully abducted Nimre from her school located at Life Camp in Abuja, took her to Katsina state, converted her to Islam and change her name to Nana Khadija.

Recently a ranking member on Parliament's ForeignAffairs Committee, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has faulted the Nigerian Inspector General of Police (IGP), Ibrahim Kpotoun Idris, for his public revelations on the notorious Nigerian kidnapper for sharing too much with public. Mr Ablakwa told Joy News Tuesday that he “really would have wished that the Nigerian IGP did not put all the information as publicly as he did.”

This underscores the professional standards of the Nigeria Police Force. It is widely known that Security service share information to enable further arrest of suspects but the manner in which the IGP disclosed information to the media enables other suspect to plot their escape.

Further, many people have called for the release of Evans due to the double standard of the Nigerian Police Police towards numeriopus cases of Child kidnap. In an originating Motion marked: FHC/ABJ/CS/69/2017, the victim claimed the following reliefs:

Wat Evans did is a lesser evil when compared to the Kidnap of the girl child fopr sexual gratification, molestation, forced marriage and islamisation. The perpetrators deprive the child of education and right to family life for the sake of their sexual pleasure.


MISS ROSE PETER CHUKWU went missing some time in 2010 when she was last seen by her family. It was only in 2016 that the family of our client got a call from her whereupon she narrated her ordeal in the hands of one ALHAJI OLATUNJI SULYMAN whom she went to visit in Ilorin Kwara State and never returned.

In miraculous twist of fate, mid January, 2017, the girl escaped from the gulag of her captors and her family members who reside in the F.C.T. decided to relocate her to the Eastern part of the country for the safety of her life. However, in what appears to be a dangerous collusion between the her captor and the F.C.T. Commissioner of Police, the young girl was picked up in Enugu on Wednesday 25th January, 2017 and hauled back to Abuja by a team of police officers deployed from Abuja by the F.C.T. Police Commissioner.

Sensing the imminent threat to her life, the family Lawyer intervened by petitioning the Inspector-General of Police and equally filing a Fundamental Rights Action before the Federal High Court where the victim is seeking the damage of One Hundred and Fifty Million (150, 000, 000.00) damages both against the Police and her captor.




In an originating Motion marked: FHC/ABJ/CS/69/2017, the victim claimed the following reliefs:

1. AN ORDER of this Honourable Court commanding the 2nd Respondent to pay to the Applicant the sum of One Hundred Million Naira (100, 000,000.00) as damages for the wasted years of her life arising from her unlawful imprisonment, degradation of her humanity and worth in the society, loss of a good marital life which she could have enjoyed, incalculable psychological trauma, loss of a better standard of living if she had the freedom to pursue her higher education and many other irreversible losses visited on the Applicant by the inhuman conducts of the 2nd Respondent herein.

2.AN ORDER of this Honourable Court commanding the 1st , 3rd and 4th Respondents jointly and severally to pay the exemplary damages of One Hundred and Fifty Million Naira (150, 000,000.00) to the Applicant for the their collusion with the 2nd Respondent to overrun the constitutionally guaranteed fundamental rights of the Applicant in harassing, intimidating and abduction of the Applicant from her Enugu residence with the purpose of foisting on the Applicant the Islamic religion and Islamic marriage contrary to her conscience and exercise of free will.

3.A SOLEMN DECLARATION of this Honourable Court that the unlawful captivity, servitude, isolation from family and relatives foisted on the Applicant by the 2nd Respondent herein, between the year 2010 and 2016, particularly as described in paragraph (4) of the affidavit evidence accompanying the Originating Motion, is a gross violation of the Applicant’s right to dignity of human person trenchantly guaranteed under section 34 (1) (a)and (b) of the Amended 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

4. AN ORDER of this Honourable Court restraining the Defendants jointly and severally, either by themselves or through their surrogates, agents, privies, assigns or any other person howsoever described acting on their behalf from attempting to abduct the Applicant for the purposes of forcefully taking her into captivity and servitude under the control of the 2nd Defendant.

5. AN ORDER of this Honourable Court restraining the Defendants jointly and severally, either by themselves or through their surrogates, agents, privies, assigns or any other person howsoever described acting on their behalf from further attempting to abduct the Applicant for the purposes of forcefully re-converting her to the Islamic religion and foisting the Islamic marriage on the Applicant (contrary to her consent and exercise of her free will) for the benefit of either the 2nd Defendant herein or any other person either in Kwara State or any part of the Federation.

fratermathy:


How is this a response to the fact that you guys try to forcefully annexe minorities into your Biafran struggle even when their official mouthpieces have made it crystal clear that they are not interested; even when their people's refusal to participate in your protests and sit-at-homes reveal their nonchalance towards your cause; and even when their people come online to refute your forceful marriage.

I don't have time for senseless altercations tonight. My point is that you guys should stop using the blanket term called "South-South" to rope uninterested people into your Biafra.

U even sound more idiotic with that attempted comeback.
Annex? Do u even know wat that means? Wat do u have for anyone to annex?

fratermathy:


Since when has one or two Ijaws (assuming this tale is even real) equated the entire South-South? In case you are not knowledgeable about the deep South, there are more than 10 ethnic groups that exist in the South.

Urhobos, for one, have already denounced Biafra severally via multiple media. So when propagating your Biafra, avoid blanket terms like "South-South". Maybe you should limit your claims to ethnicities in order to avoid ambiguities.

ur the most daft poster on nairaland, stop posting.

victorvezx:

Prominent? Yet they did not give their name or community they come from. Nothing!!

Ann-Kio Briggs is a nobody right? Ben Bruce asking y Bight of Biafra was removed from map is nobody?

Self deceit is a terrible thing.

victorvezx:

Don't mind them, they think they can just gather some people from bayelsa and claim they are representing Ijaw, no name, town, community of the group. Why did Kanu not go to Ijaw land and show himself and see if he will leave still smiling.

Prominent Ijaw people visited Nnamdi at his residence and we have the militant behind him, wat more do u want?

yarimo:
Kikikiki that is the lantern he is going to use in Kirikiri maximum prison, justice BINTA NYAKO please over to you

Iamwrath:
That sword ?? to design his house or to protect himself ?


the lantern ? maybe he'll use that in kuje prison


or


he can do the needful and immolate himself, afterall a 23 year old jew did it for them in the past

u are too dry.

In the world today, nobody can force anything on anybody, so let us stop pretending as if we are being forced into anything.
Igbo only Biafra is good but the door is left open to those who prefer the Biafra option.
Then again not everybody is accepted. It is so simple.

freshest4live:

Urhobo is Edoid group not oduduwa, itsekiri is ododuwa. BTW some Yoruba's want to be part of Biafra, but you Biafrans are not even talking about them, afonjas also need referendum to vote and become part of Biafra.

Dude it doesn't matter, just save ur advice for urself and ur people and start opening thread about Urhobo future.
NigerDelta is not an ethnic group, it does not specifically refer to Urhobo and we dont want to know about Urhobo, that is ur prerogative not ours.

Sometimes, i still forget that Obiano has only been Gov for 4 years.

Such a promising Gov Anambra have, the only person that can match Obiano or even surpass Obiano is Soludo.

Anambra is booked for the next 12 years. No Vacancy!

Amarabae:
I am a Niger Deltan and a Proud Igbo because my Asa people and the entire Oyigbo are part of NDDC.
So who are you.

However Biafra turn out will be for good.

Whether as an Igbo only nations or with some of the minority groups that opted to join Biafra under specified constitutional conditions.

It is all good.

Wat it means is that we are no longer living fake lives surrounded by enemies.

The country will face challenges in the short run but with good governance will be better for it in the long run.

Urhobo are Oduduwa, they should be making plans with Oduduwa not putting their noise in Biafra affairs.

freshest4live:

I would advice the Igbos to go alone and form their homogeneous country with lgbo as the official language, it would be better for your progress.The Igbo speaking communities in the Niger Delta can have dual citizenship with RONDEL( Republic of Niger Delta) if the South South also secedes, or they can have it with Nigeria if the south south stays in a restructured Nigeria. All thesame as an urhobo man myself l prefer a Nigeria with true federalism. When the Biafrans go, l hope the country would then be restructured.

Y dont urhobo go and form homogeneous urhobo country. If Urhobo are Oduduwa, face Oduduwa and stop interfering in Igbo affairs/Biafra affairs.

Is NigerDelta not already a war zone, or u think it wont be like south sudan with all those various multiple groups. Idiat!

lmao

Buratai, it is no longer business as usual, Obama is no longer in the white house. Buhari is indisposed.

Na so life dey be, that is y sensible people are always humble and measured in their action and not act with impunity and contempt.

It will happen in his next life.

One day Ikwerre will do coup, this is how u will blame it on igbo and start attacking dem.

Later, becos of oil, u will say they are not igbo.

divicode:
Flaatties and money! They will sell their generations and even the ones unborn for money

Go to your virtual biafrauud republic, now you are begging

Please join me as I a special seven days of fasting and prayer to change their lives

So now u have finally agreed that Ikwere is Igbo?

ipobbigot7:
Ugochukwu Arugo a murderer, Ngozi Igwe a confirmed adulterer all biafuro citizens.

U don agree now say Ikwere be Biafra?

NwaAmaikpe:


Who suggested this doggy + banana concept to the mumu husband?

It is a big no to me!!!!


By the way, she's too ugly to be a bride.

The modus operandi of Yorubas should be very clear by now.
Davido demonstrated it live by flying to South Africa to have sex with south african and then publish it.
At the same time they were killing Nigerians, just to get at them by humiliating himself and the south african girl.
Another yoruba in south africa paid for that singular action with his life, dayz later.
