Stop living in self-delusion. You are not accomodators.

Oshigun:
Lol. Omokri alway pushing Igbos forward to confront others and further alienate themselves in the process while carefully always shielding his own ethnic origin and people.

Who, other than a divisive bigot, can compare events between warring factions during a Civil War to a peace time situation where there is no official and government-sanctioned declaration of war?

I notice the hypocritical Omokri wants to codedly berate the Yorubas without even commenting on the absurdity and illegality of what the North is doing.

I am personally loving this. Just hope naive, 'liberal' and irritating Yorubas can now see, in 3D, what some of us have always argued which is that Yorubas should begin to be more insular and protectionist rather than continue naively and unrewardingly playing "accomodators" to the many ingrates around us.

I can only imagine where Yorubas would be now if we are as clannish, intolerant and protectionist in our land as Igbos and Northerners are in their region.

Interesting!

I am blessed financially than any members of your family and i m proudly saying that online(Evidence to back it up online if there is need for that).

I am a Yoruba Nationalist as long as Igbo issue is concerned.

And finally, I ll like you to bookmark this page and come back to eat your words when you and your likes finally settle down in the East.

Just before i go, taking you back memory lane, Ojukwu(Your Hero who killed millions of his people through his senseless, irrational, unreasonable, brainless and unwell-thought-through decision but took to his heels when d same death came calling) was bragging like your likes(just like Germans before second world war, thinking that d failure/history of first world war would never repeat itself) in that video on youtube about "HOW NIGERIANS WOULD BE SHOCKED AS TO WHAT BIAFRA WOULD DO TO THEM while Awolowo and Gowon were looking at him as MUMU". Yorubas, Opc, Arewa Youth etc are 21st centurily looking again, Repetition of the same fate is gradually evolving towards reality but trust me, everything in women skirts/wrappers and make-up would be thoroughly searched and checked at our airports and borders so as to prevent the likes of Ojukwu from running through our backyard...............Op u gat that!

However, Yorubas cherish d lives of their brothers, children,grannies and sisters so much and that is why violence is the least thing on our table to get rid of you guys from south west. We are naturally blessed with faculty of winning a war without using a gun.

Violence is like a roasted plaintain with groundnuts to the yorubas when there is a need for us to fight. Pls muckin, ask your brothers about why yorubas are tagged WWWest in 80s.

You hit the bull's eye. They saw as enemy Ndigbo who were actually their liberator while the real enemy the North was seen as the liberator.
The chicken has come home to roost.
Good morning Southern Nigeria.

Duru1:
Most southerners wore the MUMU dress in 1967 when they were foolishly brainwashed to see Ndigbo as their problem and boogeymen in Nigeria. The sight of the list did not help my disgusted feelings toward the shithole called Nigeria. If the ultimate powers rest in my hand, Nigeria is gone in the next seconds.

Idiotic post!

BKayy:
Good for them.
Ondo residents are showing people that they are the most reasonable people in SW. The best thing is to leave the land for them instead of burying your loved ones everyday.
Please Oyo and Ogun should follow suit.
Leave the land for the herdsmen. It's not like you are Igbo people that fight over small parcel of land. God gave you large land mass to avoid things like this. After all Oyo state is almost the size of the entire SE

Please how did Zik join the country together?

dayokanu:
Was it Awolowo who joined the country together? If you want to blame anyone blame Azikwe the clueless Owelle



The bold shows you needed Awolowos free education

Insightful analysis!

BastardWike:
Trash!

The dude wrote a million and one reasons why Nigeria's break-up will lead to our collective doom and ended up by saying we must make Nigeria to work

I was expecting he would have proferred solutions on how to make Nigeria work as he suggested but he never did.

What this writer did is just tantamount to calling a dog a bad name so it could be sent to the hangman. Is South Sudan the only country that got broken up? Don't we have success stories where turbulent countries got broken up and became a lot better? What about USSR? India/Pakistan/Bangladesh? Indonesia/East Timor? Yugoslavia? Bosnia?

Now, let me give reasons on why a broken up Nigeria will be better:

1. Billions of dollars being wasted in a phantom war against insurgents/herdsmen/Boko Haram would be channeled to other productive ventures like education, roads, rails and other infrastructures that will help to boost economic growth.

2. North can still bring its agricultural produce down South, Igbos can still trade in the North and North can still have access to the ports of the South etc. based on existing ECOWAS treaty, it even gets better with the emergence Aftcta!

3. Ethno-religious killings and destructions will reduce to the barest minimum, considering that herdsmen won't be roaming about and destroying people's farms. Sharia will now be fully practiced in the North without anybody in the South complaining and everyone will be mindful of local laws governing each country.

4. Corruption will reduce significantly, because it won't be an open bazaar anymore like it's currently in Nigeria where everyone considers the fleecing of the country as an ethnic duty.

5. It will enthrone good governance and prudence. All these proliferation of unviable states and local governments that only encourage rent seeking economy will be done away with. Puppets being foistered on the people without them having a say on the electoral process will also become significantly reduced.

6. Each emerging nation will build on their strength, eg. Biafra will encourage and put in place policies that will boost trade, SME's and technology. Oduduwa will leverage Lagos to enhance its industrial output. North will focus on agriculture and solid minerals as well as cheap labour to grow its economy while Niger Delta (depending on how they're broken up) can make better use of its oil resources.

You hit the nail on the head!

Shattuck:
this idiot kept listing natural resources, if natural resources were the most important thing I am sure African countries would not be the poorest.

You are an ignoramus - proud ignoramus!

JaffyJoe:
What do you mean what they discussed isn't his business? That stupid action by Zik led us to where we are today. He had a lot of influence at that time as the Igbos were in a lot of strategic and dominant positions. Refusing to assent to the inclusion of the secession clause is not a historical reality you can wish away. He simply thought his people would continue to be relevant in the scheme of things. He was a man that lacked foresight.

Absolutely right!

Dedetwo:
What keeps me sleepless nights about Nigeria is to be constantly informed that the so-called elites from the southern Nigeria immensely contributed to the socio-politico-economic quagmire the southerners faced in Nigeria. Had certain fools in 1967 listened to Ojukwu, the four regions that made up Nigeria would have been four or three or two countries instead of the shithole called Nigeria.

SOPHISTICATED slowpoke!

gidgiddy:
While been asked on AIT's Kaakakaki programme why armed bandits and herdsmen were not proscribed like IPOB, Minister of information, Lai Mohammed said that bandits and herdsmen were just criminals and criminals cannot be procribed. He however said that IPOB was proscribed because IPOB was agitating for the break up of Nigeria, and as such, was challenging the sovereignty of Nigeria.

Do you agree that that IPOB that had no guns, nor killed anyone, as at September 2017 when it was declared a terrorist group, should have been proscribed? But the armed killer herdsmen who have been killing hundreds if not thousands of Nigerians every year, should not be proscribed?

Full interview below

I agree with you!

Antoeni:
Albino Shut Up

" He is not even condemning the atrocities of his fulani brothers across the nation."

Why are you shocked and suprised? Is it the first time?

Gondonu:
Just imagine this shitty statement.Have the Fulanis themselves been accommodating to anyone? He is not even condemning the atrocities of his fulani brothers across the nation. An ethnic group that is out on an open ethnic expansion & domination agenda with the support of the government of the day?

Well, being fulani, Gov.Bala Mohammed can only support his kiths & kin who have unleashed unimaginable pain & destruction on other ethnic groups across this failed nation.Imagine the man accusing the same SW that went blindly in its political sophistication to vote in this catastrophe that is plaguing about 200M Nigerians today.

Guess the SW can see now? This should serve as a startling warning to all the southern efulefus in this satanic government that no matter how you try, you can never please these slavemasters.

That's why we call them SOPHISTICTED slowpoke!

jars9:
They refused to listen,the worse of it all they are yet to admit their mistake.

TALK and TALK!

taretoofine:
Please stop these promises

Insightful!

Ojukwu was born in Zungeru.

Organs:
My broda, they all grew up in the North. Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu was a trusted member of Sardauna's house and look at what he did. Ojukwu was born in Kaduna, Zik was born in Zungeru, they all went to Christian schools in these places and this guy is talking trash, but guess what, some mumus will believe him.

APT!

Tumbulum:
a coward that set up security and armed them and was able to confront the Nigeria government army and stood them in a gun battle. That coward must be a special one.
A coward that escape army onslaught and crossed all the security check point mounted by the terrorist government and moved out of the shit hole to continue to his fight against the evil terrorist government.
I think cowardice means doing something great and outsmarting the evil terrorist government.

ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!

Fahdiga:
Tinubu has already sold Yorubas to the Fulanis long time ago

"...... don't these guys ever learn from history?"

The answer is capital NO! That's why they're called SOPHISTICATED slowpoke.

Brendaniel:
Their eye has started clearing, they've seen that the mechanism the north used to rig the general election in 2015 and 2019 has been applied to the internal workings of their party to displace any southwest candidate, they will be surprised on the day of their presidential candidate election when Almajiris in millions will vote for the northern candidate, don't these guys ever learn from history?

Horribly - particularly for Edo State. Benin City, given the age of Benin Kingdom, should have been a world-class city with first-class infrastructure and tourist-haven.Today it is ghetto like all Nigeria cites and town.

pacino26:
Hmm, so by this article I can deduce that the Perm SEC made Gowon to renege on what was agreed in the interest of A United Nigeria abi?

How is it turning out today?

Totally agree!

shigoslim:
I read from A-Z . This story is inaccurate and fallacy, more fact were hiding.
The Nigeria military coup era is more or less of the Game of throne. The events is still on fold and we can clearly see it till date . The issue of majority dominant over the minority still persisted till date .
If Nigeria should be a better place their must be constitution amendment to bring equity and fairness or if that could be rigid we can then result to decentralization of power .
Without this Nigeria will be resolve a pencil in peers hole .

No they don't

frog12:
WORTHLESS refineries that must be maintained so they no turn to RUSTS

A war you fought with support from two super powers You are shameless. You are boasting in a civil war where your political and military leadership were outfoxed and outwitted by the Hausa/Fulani elites. They stayed in the background and allowed Yoruba, Southern and Northern Minorities to fight the war only to emerge after the war to corner the economic and political war booties in post-Biafra Nigeria.

TUFIAKWA! You are gloating for your prowess in a war where your kinsmen fought to enslave their ethnic group and the future of their unborn generation. You have shown that an average Yoruba is indeed a[b] SOPHISTICATED slowpoke[/b]

Sammy07:
Lol, igbos fought war

Is that a war you fought?

A war that just 3 Yoruba soldiers command

A war that Awo just made a simple statement "by denying you food" and that was your downfall is that what you called war?

A war that less than 500 Yoruba soldiers at ore made Biafra soldiers turned and push them back is what you called war?

If awolowo sitting in his office could do make the war won by Nigeria soldiers, I wonder what would happen if it were Igbo - Yoruba war.
You guys never fought a single war before, you don't have tactics.

That's why awolowo was able to change things around by just Making simple statement.


Ask Benin/Edo people they know what they call war, they've been there before.

Getting mad at Yorubas? You must have been newly discharged from a mental hospital. Are you not ashamed that your kinsmen brought Buhari to power only to be politically jettisoned and emasculated? You were not smart enough to agree on fundamental and structural changes for making Buhari, a fulani bigot, president after 3 failed attempts.

SuperBold:
I know the reason Igbos are getting mad at Yorubas. They see Yoruba as senior brothers because their own elders have failed them. They fancy and want Yoruba knowledge to solve problems their elders couldn't solved. Yet they don't know the wisdom and brain of Yoruba is what is making them shine and the reason why the Igbos always fancy them and want the Yoruba to fight for them.

So Yorubas are not pigs or werey that you will push to war with your brainless talk, you can only try but you won't succeed.

Noisemakers! You have been pushed to the wall time without number by the Fulani with no or ineffective response. Stop empty boasting

Sammy07:
pty
Lol, we don't act until we are pushed to wall.
Biko, read history well.



We are too welcoming self
Giving them hot hot would have been better.

"We have not forgotten so soon that when Nigeria had a misadventure of a civil war the heroes of that war were Benjamin Adekunle, Olusegun Obasanjo, Alani Akinrinade, Alabi Isama and others from Yoruba land. At the same time, some of their compatriots from Arewa land led troops which perished in the rivers as they had no war plan but followed the instructions of marabouts"

Yoruba military officers - Benjamin Adekunle, Olusegun Obasanjo, Alani Akinrinade, Alabi Isama - were not heroes of civil war. They were fools and blind men who fought a war meant to enslave and reduce them to second-class citizens

Is this coming from you?

helinues:
Nobody is demonizing the law abiding Fulani in Southern part of the country but the killer Fulani herdsmen must be gone forever.

Wondering why the Hausa Fulani group always lose their voice whenever those people are commiting crimes but regain their voices whenever people act on their activities

At this age and time, this is what your intelligence can come up with about Ojukwu and Nigeria-Biafra War.

What a tragedy?

femi4:
Ojukwu fooled them and continue to do so even in the grave

God bless you my brother.

Nnannapat:
Some people are just too hard hearted, anybody that will rejoice or support the age long twisted facts from the British government over this war, is not worthy to be called a human being.

Some facts are undeniable.

Ojukwu didn't declare war against the Nigerian government.

The declaration of the State of Biafra was as a result of the senseless Nigerian state aided massacre of thousands of civilians of Igbo extraction in Northern Nigeria after the counter coup.

Ojukwu gave room for possible reconciliation and settlement, that is why he went to Aburi with other regional Military heads of government.

Aburi accord was divinely ordained to put Nigeria on the right trajectory after the senseless coup and counter coup, to the extent that the Ghanaian then Head of state was astonished on how friendly the Nigerian leaders at the meeting were tackling the issues one by one.

The Biafrans stood by Aburi Accord because that is the only way forward.

The Supreme Military Council of Nigeria headed by Gowon reneged on the agreements reached in Aburi. It was alleged that the British and the American ambassadors to Nigeria met with some Northern leaders and Gowon after Aburi and boom, Aburi accord was discarded.

The Supreme Military Council declared a "police action" an act of war against the Eastern Region and a full scale war ensued afterwards.

Any non Igbo that is interested to dig deep into this tragedy and the root cause of it should endeavour to read Ahiara declaration of 1969 with an unbiased mind, most of the problems we are facing today as a Nation are deep rooted.

You are as trashy as the trash yo wrote!

Unazi71:
With all that happened then ,some haven't learned anything from mistakes of the past. Nnamdi kanu and co pls don't waste innocent souls again. We don't want civil war again. By contesting for the position of the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria after the civil war , ojukwu, the founder of biafra killed and buried biafra. Biafra is long dead and no individual self-centered ambition can revive a holistic approach to biafra agitation.
