Tonychristopher,

This post just made my day. The Ahiara Decleration should be memorized by every Igbo person.

Thanks x1,000,000

Your welcome

. People now put up posts to address Igbo problems which the Igbo should go and face at the command of these ‘patriotic’ Nigerians. These patriotic Nigerians will bypass Asaba, Owerri, Enugu but would quickly bring up Aba in every of their discussions. And we already know why they do these. Listening to these ‘patriotic’ Nigerians, one would begin to wonder whether all the polio-ridden beggars at every junction on major cities across Nigeria were Igbos – or that those reckless and moronic okada riders at every part of Lagos known for their heavy combination of illiteracy, arrogance and stupidity were Igbos. Or that all the illiterate meghards across Nigeria were all Igbo people.

TonyeBarcanista:
Both thÉ title of the article and the content adÐressed pro-Biafra ÍPÔB Igbos. This has nothing to do with ethnic inferno sir

Don't mind those idioots shooting Biafra. Let them ask their parents the level of damage that occurred during the last war.

Igbo foools.

What damage

unilagfreshest:
It will be brief and straight to the point (no battery, just my power bank).. Like 2 years ago I met this lady @ a shop in computer village, Where she sells phone accessories, as a phone engineer I visit there most times.. All I noticed then was that anytime she sees me, she smiles a lot and always tries to engage me in conversation.. But as a big boy, no time for that, just business,.. so because of her, I patronize them more.. Later she asked me for my no, which I gave her. She started calling but most time I don't pick forming busy.. then suddenly she added me on whatsapp..

Boy grow up...how can u be added on Whatsapp ....it is an automatic thing once u have the app on your phone ..and you call urself phone engineer ...day dreaming about sugar mummy

IGBO HATING AND THE RHETORIC OF PATROTISM
By Carlos Chinwendu
.
It is not every day that you return from work and read updates so full of hate with its quarter million likes by two sets of people: those who share similar hate of a particular race with the poster and those who think that liking such posts would earn them that illusionary tag of ‘good’ Nigerian. Yes, good Nigerian. To be viewed as a good Nigerian, you must put up posts that directly spew hate against Igbos. Every ‘good’ Nigerian is expected to do this – at least once in a week – for that was the face of ‘patriotism’.
.
And it also come with the silly idea that all of the people who want Nigeria restructure in preparation for a break up are senseless is well believed among the ‘patriotic’ Nigerians. People now put up posts to address Igbo problems which the Igbo should go and face at the command of these ‘patriotic’ Nigerians. These patriotic Nigerians will bypass Asaba, Owerri, Enugu but would quickly bring up Aba in every of their discussions. And we already know why they do these. Listening to these ‘patriotic’ Nigerians, one would begin to wonder whether all the polio-ridden beggars at every junction on major cities across Nigeria were Igbos – or that those reckless and moronic okada riders at every part of Lagos known for their heavy combination of illiteracy, arrogance and stupidity were Igbos. Or that all the illiterate meghards across Nigeria were all Igbo people.
.
The current hate for the Igbos now come hidden under Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB and patriotic Nigerians now see the Kanu saga as their kitchen – where they cook up Igbo hate, wrap it with that notorious tag of ‘National interest’ and then serve it to their teeming anti-Igbo friends – who themselves are willing collaborators of Igbo hate against the Igbo. Kanu should be jailed, they is what you could read from every of their statement. But here in Lagos, Gani Adams and his OPC boys, known for their neatness and calmness, work about with guns and in some cases, unleash mayhem on the citizenry. Fulani herdsmen too are not left out in the gun carrying charade and their guns are well known to explode at the slightest provocation. But what troubles ‘patriotic’ Nigerians so much is Nnamdi Kanu’s endless noise on Radio Biafra London. I am certain that Nnamdi Kanu’s ordinary rants give these ‘patriotic’ Nigerians more sleepless nights than the OPC putting hot pepper in a girl’s vagina and the Fulani herdsmen leveling a village whose inhabitants were should I say ‘unpatriotic’ enough to question their audacity of letting their cows feed on their crops and that is if these acts give them sleepless nights at all.
.
One of these patriotic Nigerians, an Ijaw gentleman made an update where he rubbished Igbos with a very illogical argument. His argument was that GEJ’S government loaded its appointments with Igbos and Northerners didn’t cry, according to him, Northerners kept calm because they were more ‘politically-mature’ than the East and South South. I saw Northerners calling him ‘patriotic Nigerian’ and dude became a super star with so many fans willing to cheer him to his grave – provided he’s willing to die hating Igbo. In the first comment, I asked one Abdul if he was actually sure that Northerners during GEJ where not wailing and he said yes, so I copied two of their wails and posted to him. Then in my second comment, I challenged the Poster who also commented that Northerners are the true Nigerians because they don’t mind who rules Nigeria. I agreed with him that Northerners are the true Nigerians – true Nigerians means nothing to me but unconscious slaves – and you would agree with me later as we progress. But I disagreed with him that Northern don’t mind who riles Nigeria – it is on the contrary, their wish – to always rule Nigeria. I asked him if it was people from Saudi Arabia that killed 450 youth coppers in Kano and Kaduna and burned people’s offices and cars when GEJ was declared winner in 2011. Of course, that was how far I went: the ijaw dude thinking I was about to damage his popularity and his presumed elevation to a star quickly came and hit the block button. An Ijaw dude who ironically many of my Igbo pals would die defending their kinsman. And yours faithfully heaved with the knowledge that my words are still there like the popular ‘uli’.
.
One cannot deny the fact however that there are lots of miscreants on Radio Biafra as there are lots of miscreants in Oduduwa page, Arewa pages and even Proudly Ijaw. Miscreants exist everywhere even in that street where you live. Since every part of this country have its own fare share of miscreants, commonsense says ‘patriotic’ Nigerians should focus on their own area. My mother use to tell me those in Igbo: ‘koo n’ubi I’ which in English means weed on your own farm. Every farm had weeds, why not concentrate on weeding your own farm first before telling your neighbor to weed his or hers? And do you imagine your sanity is still intact when you leave your weed infested farm to discuss the weed in that of your neighbor? And if I may ask, why always threatening the Igbos with war whenever they want to opt out? I mean, who the hell wants to fight Igbo people if they want to opt out? I know you are mischievous, for you would never read the great AHIARA DECLARATION and judge the Igbo people with it but would rather visit RADIO BIAFRA LONDON, a playground for the ill-informed and judge the rest Igbo people who wants an opt out with it. Why exactly have you refused to judge them with the AHIARA DECLARATION? Oh you haven’t? So below is an excerpt from the AHIARA DECLARATION, Maybe a glimpse at it would knock some sense right into your head to know exactly what the Igbo and co wanted.
.
NEGRO RENAISSANCE
‘We do not claim that the Biafran Revolution is the first attempt in history by the Negro to assert his identity, to claim his right and proper place as a human being on a basis of equality with the white and yellow races. We are aware of the Negro’s past and present efforts to prove his ability at home and abroad. We are familiar with his achievements in prehistory; we are familiar with his achievements in exploring and taming the African and American continents; we are familiar with his achievements in political organisations; we are familiar with these contributions to the world store of art and culture. The Negro’s white oppressors are not unaware of all these.
But in spite of their awareness they are not prepared to admit that the Negro is a fellow human and colleague. This is why we in Biafra are convinced that the Negro can never come to his own until he is able to build modern states (whether national or multi-national) based on a compelling African ideology, enjoying real rather than sham independence, able to give scope to the full development of the human spirit in the arts and sciences, able to engage in dialogue with the white states on a basis of transparent equality and able to introduce a new dimension into international statecraft.
In the world context, this is Biafra - the plight of the black struggling to be man. From this derives our deep conviction that the Biafran Revolution is not just a movement of Igbo, Ibibio, Ijaw and Ogoja. It is a movement of true and patriotic Africans. It is African nationalism conscious of itself and fully aware of the powers with which it is contending. From this derives our belief that history and humanity are on our side, and that the Biafran Revolution is indestructible and eternal.’
.
Read that… ^ of course you would quickly remove the Ijaw, Ibibio and Ogoja from the list, but what difference does it make?
.
One patriotic Nigeria says those Igbos in support of secession are not sensible and perhaps, the whole Igbo cowards would rush to click ‘like’ on that irresponsible post. I am partially responding to that update now, because I support the idea of Africans creating their own states and not the slave markets created for them by the people who until now, believe strongly that negroes are not supposed to create nations for themselves unless it was approved by a European nation. ‘Patriotic’ Nigerian, you are an unconscious slave. I would have written a direct reply to you and your type who are too pompous to realize that they are still slaves but let me reply you in English language – that language whose owners sent my father away from their School in his own village for speaking his own language. I will reply you in this language forced upon us by the people who wanted to wipe away any trait of our Africanism and replace it with theirs. I will reply you with the language of the same people whom my forefathers died resisting their enslavement in that ekumeku war and the Aba women riot.
.
I knew you were ignorant of the fact that some people in search of treasure, bounced upon your ancestors and at gun point, made them their subjects and that your ancestors were killed in great numbers by these treasure seeking folks. I knew too that you are unaware that someone forced a group of Afro-Asiatic people and another group of kwa people into what he calls nation because of the Berlin conference – yes Berlin conference. You are too pompous in your ignorance to know too that why they forced these different people into a nation was because France and Britain already have too many territories in Africa – territories dubiously labeled theirs when the owners are still alive and kicking but were held captive by strangers they welcomed to their lands. Your ancestors, ‘patriotic’ Nigerian are among these captives whose land were about to be allocated to strangers in a strange land and without their consents. Britain in other to avoid losing much of their territories, decided to play a trick: the trick was to group up to five of the territories they stole which share common boundary together and call them one name while still stealing from the people. Patriotic Nigerian, the place tagged Niger republic, Cameroun and the place tagged Republic of Benin would’ve been grouped into the place tagged Nigeria if these places and their inhabitants were not held hostage by different bandits.
.
You hate Igbos for wanting to opt out of a union created without their consent. You wanted the Igbo to remain in a union they never liked: a union their fathers died resisting at the Ekumeku war and the Douglass war near Owerri. You want the Igbos to remain in a union which one of their sons, King Jaja of Opobo fought and died resisting. You wanted the Igbo to remain in a union created by people who are proud of creating it because that to them is how the Negros will remain – anywhere the Europeans placed them. The Igbos according to you should remain royal and educated slave just like yourself. They must remain where the master placed all of us and they become senseless whenever they have the audacity to say ‘no, we can’t be in this cage we are better than this, we are not Nigerians but Igbos. We speak Igbo like the people of England speak English and the Chinese speak Chinese and in Germany, they speak German…’?
.
The Igbos says they want to be Igbos or Biafrans. They are not doing so because being Igbo or Biafra will land them in a land flowing with milk and honey. No, but while we cannot rule the possibility of such happenstance considering the cases of Malaysia vs. Singapore, India vs. Pakistan, North Korea vs. South Korea etc. I know you normally use South Sudan to blackmail Igbos and to spread fear. But as it is, the Igbos seems to also know of the nations I mentioned because unlike you, most Igbos are not stupid. South Sudan has not arrived, b ut they certainly would in no distance time and I hope you stay alive to run their in search of greener pastures. I know you would because you don’t have shame and you are good at eating humble pies. But what would you say if in ten years time, South Sudan finally shakes off the long damage done to it from the long abusive union with ‘Sudan’? Or are you already insinuating that they would not come out of the crises even as evidence all suggest that they are coming out?
.
Freedom does not come on a platter of gold, it comes with a price – and that price could mean suffering for some years. I believe the Igbos would rather suffer for some years than remain loyal slaves because they are too afraid to leave their comfort zone like you and your fellow patriotic Nigerians. You wanted igbos to join you in making Nigeria, a British cage ‘better for your selves and your children who probably would have become full-time English-speaking and westernized slaves by the time because you, their parents were not brave enough to understand that 50 million Yoruba are enough to form a Yoruba land and speak Yoruba language as obtainable in free INDEPENDENT nations around the globe. Freedom is a problem on its own albeit a ‘progressive’ problem. For in freedom, we are in charge and being in charge entails responsibilities. You are responsible for solving problems. So cut that ridiculous thought of yours that Igbos when they pull out would encounter problems. Don’t forget that their inclusion into your Niger area was a problem to them and by opting out, they have solved one problem. Problems are precarious, the solution to one problem will always bring us face-to-face with another problem and each problem solved is a step up the ladder. Nations, communities and individuals grow by solving problems.
.
Mr and Mrs patriotic Nigerian, I would leave you lots in your ignorance and cowardice but the knowledge that you and I are Africanly connected will not allow me. By the way, is that signboard that reads ‘WE ONLY SPEAK ENGLISH HERE’ still at the entrance of your kid’s school dear patriotic Nigerians? Is your dear Nigeria still a member of Islamic countries? do people, I mean your fellow Nigerians still b urn houses, kill Igbo people and destroy offices over a cartoon drawn in far away Denmark? I will leave you however to remain a patriotic Nigerian as against a Yoruba or Hausa or Igbo because it is now a fact that you can never do away with your slavish tag because you are afraid of the unknown. Birds in a cage usually think within themselves that flying is a disease. You can stay in your comfort zone, that is right but do sincerely accept the fact that you are a miseducated and ignorant coward.

AND DO YOU THINK THAT I AM IN THE MOOD OR MODE TO DEBATE WITH YOU?


IGNORANCE IS BLISS

Rossikk:
What do you mean by ''infrastructurally more developed''? They barely have TWO cities there!!! Even those two cities - Accra and Kumasi, are mediocre by African standards. I mean, this is ridiculous. Their rural areas are LESS developed than Nigerian rural areas. Leave those two cities and it's mud huts and footpaths galore. Abegi.. You guys go to Ghana and stay in Accra and come back with ''Ghana is better than Nigeria!!!'' Someone can equally come to Abuja and stay a year, and return to his country, singing Nigeria's praises to high heavens - ''Nigeria is better than paradise!!!''.

BUHARI HAS FINALLY MADE A FOOOL OF HIMSELF BY PLAYING INTO THE HANDS OF NNAMDI KALU. HE HAS FINALLY MADE HIM POPULAR NOW HE IS A ROCK STAR WITH MILLION FOLLOWERSHIP. KEEP HIM IN JAIL...HE BECOMES MORE POPULAR AND HIS FOLLOWERS WILL START LOSING PATIENCE AND YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS TO THE FRACTURED NIGERIAN POLITY...BRING HIM OUT OF JAIL..HE GETS A HEROS WELCOME NAD HE VGATHERS MORE COURAGE


NOW BUHARI IS JUST DAFT BY JAILING THIS MAN. THI IS NOT 1967...THIS IS ICT AGE

THINGS GO VIRAL IN FEW MINUTES

bros l lived in Accra and OSu for two years and i stay in lagos now...i am a nigeria...yes Nigeria might bre more huge but Ghana is more infrastructrally developed than Nigeria ...and there is more sanity than Nigeria

Rossikk:
But Nigeria is more developed than Ghana. So what are you talking about? We have more roads, more airports, more functional seaports, more universities, more cities, more expressways, more industries, more factories, far larger IT and automative sectors, more rich people, a much larger middle class than Ghana's. A middle class that is at least 3 times the entire Ghanaian population. A much larger GDP (both per capita and gross). https://www.google.co.uk/#q=ghana+gdp

So what are you talking about?

The Top 10 Most Liveable Cities in Africa

1. CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA
Cape Town is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, let alone Africa, having already won a number of prestigious international travel awards.

2. ACCRA, GHANA
In addition to being a wonderful urban home for roughly 20 percent of Ghana’s 20 million total population, Accra has become the leisure destination of choice for upscale Nigerians who take a quick 45-minute flight to spend time at their Accra weekend homes

3. NAIROBI, KENYA
Nairobi is fast becoming the African city of choice for multinational companies seeking a foothold for their African operations. Nairobi is a gracious city that possesses much of the sophistication of the large South African cities, but provides these offerings in a “kinder and gentler” way

4. JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA
From the moment you step off the plane at OR Tambo International Airport (ORTIA), it becomes clear why Johannesburg is considered a world-class city. ORTIA rivals some of the best airports in developed worlds. It’s sleek, modern, expansive and offers a wealth of stores and restaurants, much like many parts of South Africa’s and Africa’s economic capital.

5. GABORONE, BOTSWANA
Though young—having only gained independence from Britain in the 1960s—Gaborone has flourished. Politically stable and economically buoyant, Botswana’s capital is considered to be a peaceful city. It’s likely partly due to it being small in size, with a population of just over 230,000, but still offers a diverse mix of people, and places to see. Gabs, as it is popularly known, is located in a country known for being one of the world’s largest producers of rough diamonds.

6. LIBREVILLE, GABON
Modern and vibrant, the country’s largest city is home to just over half a million people. They’re young (nationally, half are 19 and younger) and urbanized. School enrollment rate in Gabon is over 70 percent and literacy is close to 90 percent. In Libreville, it’s over 63 percent, which translates into a most capable service staff in restaurants, hotels, and shops. The French influence extends beyond being the official language, providing for a very stylish city that boasts a grand boulevard with beautiful architecture and monuments.

7. TUNIS, TUNISIA
A lot has changed here since the Arab Spring unrest started nearly two years ago. While unemployment remains a concern and the new government still works toward stabilizing the economy, the smallest country in North Africa is becoming one of the fastest developing. The first half of this year, saw a GDP growth rate of 3.5 percent, with a steady increase in the manufacturing sector. French territory for over seven decades, there’s a rich diversity in the culture here—African, Arab and European.

8. DAR ES SALAAM, TANZANIA
Dar es Salaam is a rapidly growing city, from the new infrastructural projects to its people, literally. With an annual population increase of over three percent each year, it’s the third fastest growing city in Africa—and one of the fastest in the world! It also has a large expatriate community

9. WINDHOEK, NAMIBIA
From the language to the distinct architecture, the German influence on Windhoek is evident—a lasting reminder of Namibia’s early colonial history. Don’t expect big city living; the most recent count puts total population just over 320,000. The small but active city is home to just about every national government institution, making it the country’s political, cultural, social, and economic capital


10. KIGALI, RWANDA
From the expansion of its Central Business District to the recent road construction project to help ease traffic congestion, Rwanda’s capital is slowly becoming one of the most rapidly developing cities on the continent. Centrally located in the heart of Rwanda, Kigali is home to close to one million people, and there’s also a large community of expats here who get to enjoy the diversity the city has to offer.

Now can anybody tell me one NIGERIA city here...your so called GIANT OF AFRICA

onoja12:
my friend shut up, you have never been to either of those countries you read one report then assume expert status

if you have not been there doesnt mean no body has

That is why i do not want to talk with those kids...it is even Abuja has semblance of modern city...if you hav e been out before especially EU, Americas and Some Asia you will understand that NIGERIA is a big Ghetto and LAGOS is 86% Ghetto...so why should one be proud of this country...where they still construct roads with open drains

onoja12:
men no be me go tell you the time, go ask your parent, let them give you the dates, as for Niger, i maintain it is only people who haven't traveled that talk rubbish about Nigeria not been developed .

I am proud of my parents and they did what they did without Nigerian help, short changed by N igeria for the singular fact they are igbo and their grand kids short changed also...this country is a big shame, just look at the crop of leaders you have

pls why must you call names? a country that is so blessed yet so backward, ever travelled out of this continent you will understnad that Nigeria is damn far behind, travel is the best teacher


Dont stay there and assume your country is great...NIGERIA IS WHACK.....I am ashamed sometimes acrrying nigerian passport

sonofananimal:
proud of your father and mother who take there time to born you and take care of you until you reach the age were you started DISPLAYING your stupidity online

What make a country to develop if it is not his people!

You went to Dubai and started condemning Nigeria! Why can't you study them and bring what you have learn in Dubai to develop your country,

But you are here opening your pig mouth shouting on what to be proud of

Hypocrites

nice

sonnie10:
I am not an economist but I like to present things mathematically. Nigeria 2015 fiscal year budget was 4.4 trillion. What this means is 440000000000000000 was used to manage 180000000 people.

Here is the simple maths;

Divide 440000000000000000 by 180000000 = 2444444444.

In summary, #2.4B was used to manage each person in 2015. Daris God ooo!

Economist in the house pardon me if my analysis is over simplified.

when you go to places like Dubai, Qatar or even Pretoria you will be ashamed of been proud of Nigeria...can one tell me what to be proud of? Just one thing

the most annoying is the giant of african thing...what giant


a country that has never won or emabrak on any single military excerise without foriegn aid...or a country that keeps begging other country for money and investors

Sweetguy25:
That Nigeria was once a great a country – It is common to hear Nigerian’s make statements like “our country will be great again”. This comment is quite delusional.
Nigeria, to the best of my knowledge has never been a great country. You may try to pass of some of our characteristics like population, ethnicity or the fact that we used to have groundnut pyramids in the past as greatness but reasonably, these things don’t make you great.
Examples of countries that were great are China and Argentina. They were both known to be highly prosperous countries in the past and unfortunately lost their prosperity as time went by.
Nigeria has never been known to be a prosperous country since its independence till date.

That Nigeria is a rich country: This is another unfounded untruth that is perpetuated by some ignorant Nigerians.
The “GDP per capita” is the standard used in measuring how rich a country is. Nigeria’s GDP per capita currently stands at 3000 dollars. This makes Nigeria a low income country and one of the poorest countries in the world.

That Nigeria is more developed than most countries in Africa: Some Nigerians who have never been beyond the boundaries of Lagos and Abuja would think there are fewer places in Africa that are better than these places (and Nigeria as a whole) in terms of infrastructure and economic development.
Recent ratings from the World Economic Forum’s global competitiveness report shows that even in West Africa, certain countries like Cote D’Ivoire, Ghana, Mali, Cape Verde and Senegal all have better infrastructure ratings than Nigeria.
Honestly speaking, Nigerians have a myopic view as to what true socio-economic growth and development entails. Seeing private jets and luxurious cars as development while majority of the populace cannot afford beyond the basic necessities of life isn’t development.

That Nigeria would develop and be great:
Although we can’t predict the future, we can judge from history and the current state of affairs to project what the future would look like.
The possibility of Nigeria becoming great with its current structures, constitution and institutions is very slim.
The current socio-political and economic regime that perpetuates greed, rent-seeking, injustice and laziness will not get this country where is plans to be.
Until we begin to call for a structural and systemic change, Nigeria may not witness any progress in the long-run.

I am just watching all this ediots talking rubbish, I ve been patient because of my anti-biafra stance but they keep taking us as fools they would quickly jump and say Oyigbo is part of Niger delta they forget that when the abandoned property law was passed in Rivers state oyigbo people also suffered the consequences too same with egbema people who used to be part of old east central until the Obasanjo boundary adjustment, even that mumu hopeathand spilling rubbish about Ekpeye, ikwerre people no support Biafra no mean say Ekpeye people no support am, ekpeye people actively partaked in the war but everybody moved on after 1970, let them keep giving themselves false hope should I give u link of when the rivers state government tried to force ibani language on an igbo speaking community in opobo, the list goes on. I am a strong advocate of one Nigeria because I know whats on board and how we can het our way, lemme not talk further... not everything should be said on social media.

Forget hopeathand.. Pls...he is a goner

Sanity is eluding Rocha's and IMO people are watching


Who are the ones hating? Last time I checked boko haram are bombing ..that is love

When oba said lagoon ..that is love

Tonychristopher. Thank God for few people like u and euromber. Please go read my write up and understand why Africa might never get things done. Our emotions are far greater than logic. It is not about having the right to secede. The issue is whatever pursued you from Nigeria will stare at you in the face when you get Biafra. Stop fighting the wrong battle.

All I wanted was to just make common sense

kingzizzy:
Freedom is not cheap, it costs lives. If Nigeria cannot grant Igbos a referendum, we will fight to be free.

Violence should be the last resort and I don't like it

I am a pacifist

Ok, and you think he will just wake up then starts ngostiating with Nigerian government from nowhere, what he's doing now is part of the base setting, if not they won't take him serious.

Then other strategies you ealier mentioned will come up this is just his foundation awareness setting strategy. Definitely Nigerian government cant, quote me anywhere, they can't kill him.

With this strategy he used, the biafra struggle has been well publicised, it only takes a bit time for the next faze, you stay and watch out.

If you are not willing to die millions of other are willing, QED

Nice post anyway

kingzizzy:
You are talking as if you are new to Nigeria. What do you think freedom is? A situation where you praise those holding your freedom? Countries like South-Sudan and Eritrea had to fight bitter wars, lost millions of people before they could be independent but what you interested in is who Kanu insults or doesn't insult. You should even be happy it is mere insults for now and not yet action. Boko Haram are blowing everywhere up and killing people every day but your Government is considering negotiation and amnesty for them. Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB are insulting and protesting but the same Government is arresting and shooting them. Do you see the hypocrisy? When it comes to the issue of Biafra, this is the right of a people to choose their destiny. It is a personal insult on all of us that a white man can come all the way from Europe to tell us what our country is and to bastardise us with the name "Nigerian". Did you come to the world to fufil the destiny of Lord Lugard or your own destiny? To think about the Nigerian market is to think small, Nigeria is mut a tiny dot on the world map. We Igbos are thinking far beyond Nigeria. I want a Biafra where people are producing things that Japanese, Canadians, Norwagian etc are coming to buy from me. There you are thinking about Nigerian Naira.

Biafra is about people who want to be free to shape their destiny, people want to breathe fresh air, try new things, create new awareness. Biafra is not for people who think small and can't see beyond Nigeria. You talked about confederation? Forget it. It will never happen in Nigeria. The Northerners are totally against it because it will destroy their power base. The northerners would rather figh a war than give anyone confederation. Confederation is why the civil war was fought. It was confederation that Gowon signed in Aburi, Ghana but he would not implement it which directly led to Ojukwu declaring Biafra.

Godbless Biafra

You spoke well...there must be a middle ground . I just hate violence ..look at Syria look at Iraq look at Sudan

Is that what you want


There must be a non violent and diplomatic approach for this Biafra thing biko nwanne madu

moderation2020:
I can bet ur not a full flesh igbo born or brought up, or maybe you are a foreign based dude. you proclaimed peaceful resolutions for Biafra agenda, does it look to you as if Nigeria govt will give you that audience for a roundtable resolutions, even when an ordinary national conference done by gej has been quashed by the pedophile in government.
In your writeup you are against the personality of Nnamdi Kanu as biafra director, fine and good, but how long are we going to wait for your dead father to champion the biafra course, he-goat.

You said Nnamdi Kanu insults everybody, but you call him a pyromaniac, Someone who loves to set fires (name calling), the major problem with we igbo is that we have refused to be directed, ruled, or governed by anybody.

from the rubbish you wrote above, we should wait for eternity in this God forsaken country till when nigeria permits before we can fight for our right and self determination, infact you need to be banished completely from your village because your a disgrace to your father's land. biiig fuuuullllll

Nnamdi should be able to change his approach a lot of exuberance and I do not hate violence. He should learn how to have allies ..even USA with all the military might still consult allies and why do we have NATO.... I think Nnamdi should refine his approach ..beside that he doesn't even understand military tactis and I hate this violent thing. . Africa is backward due to this violent thing

Look at Catalonia and Ireland in Europe they are doing it non violently



The world is moving fast yet we have not placed man on the moon as Africa and I just can't afford refugee status and we can't afford bombing each other


Africa has to catch up with the world technologically not one pyromaniac rascal calling for violence

If he wants Biafra he should do that non violently and also have a blueprint in how to relate with allies



Not wearing one ear phone and talking trash in UK


I have to be reasonable here ...nations are forming coalitions for economic expansion we shouldn't be deducting

Futureleader1:
I rarely comment on post but my brother I say BRAVO to you!! I am pro biafra but I totally support u on this....once again I am going to make sure the world see this and have a rethink....WELLDONE...#biafra we know....

Thank you so much

I know a lot of my people who know me will be surprised by my position ...I do not understand what this Biafra thing is ...I mean how can some dude in London will come and start tormenting trouble for us Igbo by establishing a pirate radio that it's aim is to talk down on people both Igbo and non Igbo. To me this Nnamdi KANU isn't the freedom fighter I envisage . you can't want a country on the alter of insulting your neighbours and even your self. To me I see it as infantile and childish approach . Ojukwu never insulted anybody he had an agreement with them

But this KANU approach is something else . I have not listened to him and I do not think I have that time to listen to him. Pls whoever is reading this shouldn't get it twisted ...we can't have it the way of Sudan or that of south Ossetia nor that of east Timor nor that of Eritrea and Ethiopia. We can also have it the way of north and south Korea . I know that Igbo are assets to Nigeria though they won't want to agree with that and Nigeria is asset to Igbo though we igbo won't admit that but the fact is that we have a bigger market and eco space to exploit Biafra shrinks this market from 180 million to 60 million and this we have to understand

If we can have a multi lateral and billeteral understanding between the emerging nations that will be OK instead of going this Biafra way. Biafra is very OK and I as an Igbo dude support it . what I am against is having a pyromaniac in charge of Biafra . this we have to look before we leap.

We as a country have many non violent approach and they varies left for me I think we can go confederation or united nation way. What do I mean ..we can do it like UAE where Dubai, Abu dabi which are different countries but maintain single military and security and imigration..this is workable or we can have it united kingdom way where Wales, Ireland and other independent countries like Scotland have their independent paliarment but with same currency and visa regime .


We must guarantee free movement between independent states , we must guarantee the bond and brotherhood between the constituent nations . we can't fight ourselves again but as we do this we have to develop independently . if north want sharia and Islamic economy so be it , if west want monarchial capitalism so be it and if igbo wants Republican capitalism so be it. The bottom line is that we won't fight and we have to find a way out of quagmire. We may even have independent passport in this unity if it will ever come but there must be automatic residency and business permit in constituent nations


One of the first law of nation is : SELF PRESERVATION


These are few options available and let us rest on this online Biafra and tribal bashing


Que Sera Sera ...what will be will be


If Biafra will be it will be ..if it won't be it won't be

But if it be we have to also know that good neighbour matters and left for me I think confederation of states like USA, UK and UAE is the best . Africa and the world is watching and waiting for Nigeria to crumble

We can't crumble we have to find peaceful ways to get things done


Good morning all

Lol

mulattoclaro:
Hahahhaa. Where are those never do well such as tonychristopher, lygn19, kestolovee, TellingItAsItIs, Udmaster, Ugomba, tochukwuifeduba and the biafran bastard sons and daughters of a million fathers? Britain has spoken and that's final. As for that Nnamdi Kanu guy,he will rot in jail. May Chukwu okike abiama fire any of you that would disturb the peace of this country.

U have a lot of growing up to do
