exxell: No... BIAFRA WILL BE RESTORED WITH ONLY DESIGNATED PARTS OF IGBOLAND AMD NOTHING ELSE! If we want Biafra, we have to work with facts. In this current dispensation, it will do us good to see ourselves as alone in this struggle... No two ways about it.
Do you know the population of the Igbos Nd what we can achieve left alone? Bro, we are enough to form our own country. The Igbo population is bigger than countries like Israel, Belgium, Lithuania! Yet they have their own countries and we are called a Tribe!
I have said what I have said You can place a bet on it It is just a matter of time
exxell: Before reading, I deem it necessary to state that I am not an IPOB member and will never be one. But heavens be my witness when I say this.... "I AM A BIAFRAN/IGBOLAND APOLOGIST AND WILL DEFEND ITS TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY EVEN WITH MY BLOOD WHEN CALLED UPON. SO HELP ME GOD". I SUPPORT BIAFRA AND WILL BE HAPPY TO SEE IT ACTUALIZED.. SO HELP US GOD!
Back to the matter. I have read with dismay on so many write ups and misconceptions about the Biafran issue. This post is meant to clear the minds of some political commentators on Nairaland especially those from Yorubaland and Northern Part of Nigeria. I read one topic on Nairaland front page this morning about the Itsekiris denying biafra? I was like... WTF? In the current fight for the Actualization of the country of the Igbo Man and Igboland, were Itsekiris ever included? Has Itsekiri stopped being a sub Yoruba language? Or are they deluded to think that the Biafran style we want is the Nnamdi Kanu style? No.... Not at all! Biafra will come... But not the Nnamdi Kanu way or his map of Biafra. Biafra will come when the trained lawyers and judges who will negotiate for us at the UN assembly is ready. When they will be ready is what I dont know. But will they ever be ready? The answer is capital Yes. Will Biafra (Igboland) ever come? CAPITAL YES! I am certain about that beyond every reasonable doubt. It may take 10, 20 years... But it will surely come. Biafra will come through fiercely legitimate means and through the law. Mark that part. On that note, let me clear the myth about Biafra.
First and Foremost, it is pertinent to state that the Biafran struggle is an IGBO fight comprising strictly of all Igboid speaking languages ALONE. No other tribe whether in the North, South South, South West or Middle Belt is included. Other minority tribes who are joining in the clamour for Biafra are doing it at their own will.
When I talk about the Igboid speaking languages, this includes but not limited to Anambra, Imo, Abia, Ebonyi, Enugu, Some Parts of Delta especially Anioma, Agbor. Some parts of Rivers state especially Ikwerre, Ndoki, Etche etc and finally some parts of Edo especially the Igbankes. The people who are mentioned in parts may also be expected to join by referendum like the Ndokis, The Ikwerre, The Etches, The Igbankes et al. They can still decide to be part of Nigeria or join the Niger Deltas. It will not be a forced inclusion.
Let me also categorically state that The current real struggle for the liberation of Biafra does not include the Izon, Ibibio, Efik, Annang, Itsekiri, Isoko, Urhobo. These groups mentioned are matured enough to stay on their own. Even if they must join, it is strictly by agreement and laid down rules which includes but not limited to the giving up of their lands and swearing to abide by Biafran laws. I will now state my reasons for calling on every Igbo man to jettison the idea of including the above tribes in the Biafran struggle. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT EVERY IGBO SON AND DAUGHTER WHO SUPPORTS THE ACTUALIZATION OF BIAFRA READS THIS AND THINKS DEEP TOO WHILE READING THIS PART.
Firstly, It is sad to state it but is very obvious that the country our forefathers fought for in the 60s comprising of different ethnic groups including but not limited to Igbo, Izon, Ibibio, Efik, Annang, Itsekiri, Isoko, Urhobo,etc will as at today not work as one united country. This might be bitter but sadly true but look at it from the bright side, no one wants a mini Nigeria and more especially with people hardwired to (OUR OYEL).
Secondly, Nigeria is a fraudulent creation no doubt and any reasonable person would want to opt out of this union and the only way I see it happening is by mutual understanding of the tribes that make up Biafra. A mutual understanding to pull out of Nigeria and become the way we were before the invasion of Britain into our lands and before the marriage. It is imperative to state then that;
1.) Every tribe shall go there separate ways at the actualization of the struggle.
2.) Every "Proudly" Igbo group who wishes to join The republic of Igboland shall do so with there people and there Lands.
3.) If other tribe namely (Izon, Ibibio, Efik, Annang, Itsekiri, Isoko, Urhobo) wishes to form ther own country (which i consider another nigeria but really it isn't my business), they can do so.
4.) Clear boundaries most the discussed and be a major priority.
[b[The last but not the least reason for saying that we should stop attaching other tribes to the Biafran struggle is judging from the lessons of History.[/b] History has it documented about the sabotage and betrayals the Igbos suffered during and after the Biafran war from these so called minority tribes in the South South. Examples include but not limited to; The Ken Saro Wiwa betrayal, The case of abandoned property which is not resolved yet and the probability of these people pulling out to form another country when they pretend to join us achieve it. Let me explain;
Dear Igbo brothers and sisters, do we really think that these tribes from the Niger Delta are foools? You really think that they love us? Please, forget about all these minority tribes you see online and offline pretending like they love and need us! The truth of the matter is that they never loved us and will never love us. Eg are the Ijaws. They only want us to achieve their needs. The average Niger Delta citizen is hardwired to our OYEL! But due to their minor numbers and population, they can't really do or achieve much TO PROTECT THESE OYEL AND EXPLOITATION OF THEIR LANDS. [b]What then is their game plan? Its simple... Pretend like they love the Igbos, Achieve Biafra together, Go to the backdoor and sign a deal with Nigeria, THEN PULL OUT TO FORM THEIR OWN COUNTRY! Just ask yourself this simple question, Do we really think that these people don't want their own nation?
Personally, am not against them having their own country. Rather, what am against is hoodwinking the Igbo nation that they love them in order to use us divide Nigeria and then Bolt out! This is the hard truth! The minority tribes are aware that left on their own, they can never defeat the Yorubas, Hausa-Fulani and Nigeria at Large. So my dear Igbo brothers, bear this important information at the back of your mind! They only need us to divide Nigeria and then bolt out.
In the absence of this understanding, then I urge my Igbo brethren to drop the biafra ambition which would probably be sabotaged again and join the Hause-Fulani and Yorubas in this game of thrones called Nigeria, loot all the lootables, grab all the grabables and suck all the suckables till nothing is left. Forget all these change Brouhaha. Buhari is leading this country to death. The way Nigeria is going down, we shall soon hit oil! I am certain about this beyond all reasonable doubt! Before you doubt and swallow me based on propaganda they keep on feeding you, look around you and ask if there is real change! Ask yourself whether there was a real change or a change in the method of looting!
IGBOS LISTEN AND LISTEN GOOD! WISE UP AND ACT FAST. LET US ALL JOIN HANDS AND FORM A BIAFRA THAT WE MAKE US PROUD STRICTLY FOR IGBOS ALONE! IF YOU DONT KNOW IT, KNOW IT NOW THAT THE YORUBAS AND HAUSA FULANI WILL NEVER ALLOW US RULE THIS COUNTRY BECAUSE THEY WILL KEEP ON CHANGING THEMSELVES. JUST CHECK IT OUT... FROM OBASANJO TO YAARDUA TO JONATHAN (BY LUCK) AND THEN BACK TO BUHARI. PREVIUOSLY, FULANI MILITIA MEN HAVE BEEN RULING THIS COUNTRY! We clear have the numbers to play but waste in on sentiments.
N.B Some of the Ideas in this write up were borrowed from Observant.
No need for all these long writeups here and there
Biafra will be restored with every part of it's territory None will be left behind This is inevitable
No amount of lies and propaganda will stop this
I'll advice you to stop wasting your energy because it wouldn't change a thing
emancipation1: Biafra land has limit, right from the creation of time we have seen people expand by moving from places to places amd maintaining language structure......the fact that majoity of switzerland speaks french and italian doesnt make the french and italy say Switzerland belongs to them....try to learn bro....you speak doesnt mean it your land and this same applies to my brother who says ibo is spoken in benue so u have to claim that territory in benue.......im sorry u are still deep in your slumber.....#fact
Mr No amount of lies and propaganda you people are trowing here and there can change the truth Biafrans are related by blood They know themselves
Any group whose women traditionally wear a 2 piece rapper as part of their traditional attire ARE BIAFRANS
Aufbauh: In other words, I pledge to Nigeria my country (whether you called it a zoo)
To be faithful, loyal and honest (irrespective of political or ethnic divides),
And to defend her unity (I believe in the indivisible Nigeria with true federalism and anyone with a divergent view(s) is an enemy and I'll not hesitate to smoke out his/her life when it matters),
To uphold her honour and glory (honour and glory of the most populous black nation, the largest economy in Africa, the beauty in our diversities, the sweet friendship i have kept with the yorubas, Igbos, Ijaws, Esans, Afemais, Tivs, Jukuns, Chambas, Igalas, Isokos, Ikwerres, Ibibios, Efiks, Kilbas, Eggons, Nupes, Ibirras, Bachamas, Beroms,Michikas, Marigis etc.
So help me God. Amen!
NB : I also want to use this opportunity to convey the message of we the good people of Benue state to the biafra crusaders that no part of our land should be included in their dillusional campaign. Be well guided!
In other words You pledge to Slavery
Well some people do not pledge to the slavery you so crave and they are about to get their freedom soon
oyem4u: WARRI—THE Itsekiri ethnic nationality of Warri, Delta State, has dissociated itself from the calls for creation of a Biafra Republic out of Nigeria as being drummed by some Igbo interest groups in the South-East.
The Itsekiri Leaders of Thought, ILT, expressed the group’s concern over the Igbo agitation yesterday in a statement by its Chairman, Pa Johnson Ayomike and Secretary, Edward Ekpoko.
The body is disturbed that the proposed Biafra Republic as widely reported in the social media includes the whole of Delta State.
The statement stressed: “We recall with pains the day the defunct Biafran Army invaded Warri and Benin in the then Midwest Region on August 9, 1967.
Never again will the Itsekiri tolerate such invasion. The Itsekiri nation is committed to the unity of Nigeria and will do all it can to promote and protect it as one indivisible country.
As Major General Philip Effiong said on January 14 1970, the Republic of Biafra ceased to exist. We, the Itsekiri, wish it to be eternally so for the peace and development of our great nation.”
zeusdgrt: I show u facts and still yet u hv not responded,so shut up if u don't know what we the niger deltans are planning!see d blue print once more and remain silent u muppet mouth dude
Don't understand what you are rambling about
These are the people that makeup biafra
Igbanke, igala, idoma, igede, isoko, isobo(aka urobo), itshekiri, izon(ijaw), ibibio/efik/anang and Igbo
If you feel any of these groups are not Biafrans Prove it with verifiable facts
100freekiss: Niger Delta is oil producing states , which part of Niger Delta are you from ? Or are you from ondo state ? I know that ondo state is also part of Niger Delta.
So am still right, your not from the south south or south east. Your a South West
Only the Izon(ijaw) part of ondo produces oil
Izon people where carved into ondo mischieviously by Obasanjo in feb 3 1976
etoroh: lie, propaganda because u guys brainwashed our forebearers abi. things have changed and history gets rewritten. we are not a part of biafra, and never will. habour false hopes at your detriment. stay igbo and call igbo biafra, dont include other tribes, cos it wont ever happen. there is no weapon you guys will use to actualise that... mental, phyisical, spiritual weapon, una no gEt am pass us, so you can dream your futile dream on.
If am lying Then show everyone the truth with verifiable facts Put your money where your mouth is
osothermal: We means people of south south so don't bring us into dat ur biafra nonsense
There is no people of "south south" Give us the name of your people Give us the name your grand fathers and your ansectors has always answered The name you where called before 1960
If your office boss starts calling you "a goat" today Will you change you name to "Mr a goat"
DelticStephEn: you keep acting and talking like some one that HV no single Water in his Brain. you know very well that there is so much igbophobia down here in SS yet you keep Ranting and disgracing your ppl as if D Igbo are trying to force Others into biafra Instead of you to fight to liberate us Igbo here in SS. I pity you.
Listen And listen well
I do not do sentiments I do not do emotions I only work based on facts and truth
Anyone with proper facts as well as the real truth can disprove any of my posts I will accept it As long as it has proven correct
People should learn to do things based on the truth no matter what That way they will stop running into unecessary problems
evlyn: the south-east will just swallow the money from the oil gotten from the southsouth... like this igbo man has started chooking eye in southsouth..as the prophet said southsouth go dey and south east go be biafra... keep fighting for biafra and leave southsouth out...lets create our own country too... leave our oil for us
You are the last I'll quote of all the people who quoted me on this topic Since most really have nothing tangible to say or are still saying the same wrong thing
For all you disprove of that post Do so with facts and figures Or else It will just be that you are brazzenly taking the path of Ignorance or that Mischieve
hensben: You don't want Nigeria but wan niger delta? You want to split from Nigeria because you guys can't compete with Hausa and Yoruba politically instead want ND in your Biafra so you can oppress them with population. Now I see biafrans are the real coward.
If your going to quote me Do justice to my post with facts and figure
Kirigidi: Who is dis dreamer! If u think it's because of our Niger Delta u Igbo pipo ar askin for ur Biafra den u beta wake up frm ur dreamin. I hav known all dis while dat d main reason why all dese greedy Igbos ar shoutin Biafra! Biafra!! wit so much confidence is because of our Niger Delta lands nd resources. But don't deceiv urself guy, we will neva join ur Biafra. How many Ijaws, Urhobos, Itsekiris, Ogonis, Edos, hav u seen agitatin for ur so-called Biafra. If were Buhari I wil just grant dis Igbo pipo dia request to go establish dia Biafra but on d condition dat they shuld neva include d Niger Delta. And I tell all dis noise nd shout about Biafra will just fade away, for d Igbos know very well dat witout Niger Delta, they can't sustain as a country because they ar terribly landlocked wit small landmass already ravaged by erosion.
This whole writeup is from someone who knows not what he's talking about
I'll advice you to stick to what know and can defend with your life as truth
etoroh: you in particular you keep vomiting this crap. what you call biafra is purely igbo, and not the south south. its south east. concentrate on the igbo states you call MY BROTHERS and forget about others cos they have their brothers too. igbo should carve their region and remain igbo. no one is asking you questions. stay there and brood alone.
You know nothing about Biafra or its history Most of you cannot swear with your life to defend this false history you keep propagating Because you know it is all a lie
nasoeb: "we" are the 6 states in the SS. Just to lecture you any further NDR stands for Niger Delta Republic. and that is what we must have. biafra nah nah, its not our thing.
SS or NDR has no literal meaning Don't the people in this so called states have identity Don't they have names for their ethnicity If they do What are their names
TonyeBarcanista: I write this from the depth of my heart to all those that have been making false and baseless remarks about me of recent times. I have to set record straight.
1. I Never Betrayed APC I have to state this on clear terms that I have neither betrayed any party at ANY time. When I left APC for PDP, I never betrayed any APC supporters as I exercised by inalienable right to association. Though my decision as at then may disappoint some of my ex-comrades(which is understandable) but it was NEVER a betrayal. I never took any blood oath with anyone in APC nor sign any MoU never to leave APC. It was clearly a right that I exercised.
2. I Never Betrayed Any Ethnic Group I am 100% Ijaw and has always been irrespective of party affiliation. As an Ijaw and a Niger Deltan, I aired my view and put record straight on issues of some territories in our region. I never at any time cede any of the territories in question to Igbo, Hausa or Yoruba areas. I never abused any ethnic group while expressing my position. I never opposed ANY Biafran aspiration but only expressed the interest and position of our people. I never maligned any person or group in the process.
3. I Never Betrayed PDP I am 100% committed to PDP for the sake of a better society. That I support PDP is politics, but when it comes to tribal, ethnic and regional interests, I have to drop partisanship and address issue from that aspect. When I supported Buhari, I never ceded Ijawland to fulani. That I am supporting Wike is not the same as saying that Ikwerre own Okrika. Same way should my position on ethnic issues be not misinterpreted as anti-PDP. I am not a bastard, I am from a tribe and region. PDP is a party for every Nigerian, it shouldn't be a yardstick for tribal measurement. It is absurd to assume that because I have a position that is unpopular with some fellow pro-PDP means I am anti-PDP. That's nonsense.
4. I Never Promoted Bad Blood Among Regions To say that I'm causing bad blood between SS and SE just because I maintained a position as a SS man is laughable. The same people peddling these accusations have been on threads abusing Ijaws, Edos, and some other ND people. Some even called us drunken fishermen(#ProudlyFisherman). How can these people turn around to accuse me when I never insulted their tribe and region? I dare them to point that out if they insist otherwise. In same vein I never promoted hate against the North or SW. I always try to respect people and their ancestry.
4. I Don't Yield To Blackmails It is very funny that some people won't correct some of their friends for making baseless claims but will always be quick to call me names when I lay facts to bear even without insults. These people expects me to "shut up" for their sake but won't tell their friends same for starting the whole thing. Let me state that I'm not moved but only disappointed that this set of people arrive at such judgement.
I want to appeal to people to ask me question on clarification on any subject. I am not here for fight. I will not betray PDP, neither will I betray my South South people and Nigerians as a whole. You may disagree with my position on issues, you may feel disappointed that I don't align with your views on political or territorial matters. But always remember that I'm not here to spite anybody or group. It is unfair to lay baseless accusation against me.
I appreciate and thank those that understand my true intention.
May God Bless Us All and Nigeria.
How can you call your self a Niger deltan Does that name "niger delta" have any meaning in your language
Only a fool continually answers a name given to him/her by their oppressors
Nigeria is not blessed and can not be a blessing It is a slave camp Slavery cannot be a blessing to any one
nasoeb: we in ss dont know what you guys call biafra is that a branch of boko haram? Cos i see no reason you dont want someone (geographical region) to be address the way they wish to be address but by your definition. We are NIGER DELTA REPUBLIC. Deak with it. the niger deltans are known to be fearless and we say NDR we mean NDR
Who is this "we" you are refering to What is name of this group
I have a dream that the ongoing blood letting by Islamist terrorist group, Boko Haram, will come to an end and will surprisingly usher in, an era of peace, tranquility and progress for all parts of the present contraption called ‘Nigeria’.
I have a dream that a “Nigerian Goberchev” will arise and break the fraudulent/imposed geographical contraption into 5 (five) viable countries as follows:
1. Biafra (present Southeast zone) comprising the core Ndigbo, 2. O’odua (present Southwest plus Yoruba speaking areas of Kwara and Kogi) 3. Niger Delta (present South South), 4. Federation of Central Nigeria (present Plateau, Benue, some parts of Nasarawa, and Southern Kaduna), 5.Islamic Caliphate of Nigeria (the remaining parts of present Northern Nigeria).
Thenceforth, there will be no more religious riots nor senseless bloodshed of the present type typified by Boko Haram. Rather, the present northern elders will coalesce into the ruling oligarchy of the caliphate and their topmost emirs will be called Ayatollahs.
Meanwhile, the present contraption will metamorphose into an economic subregion rivalling ECOWAS, and with healthy economic rivalry between the emerging component nations.
The whole world seems to want to play dumb to these protests One thing is certain When mayhem is finally unleashed They will not say they were not told
