PoliticsSo If Biafra Is Formed? by uncjay(op): 11:28pm On Oct 28, 2015
So recent Biafran protests have got me thinking, but
I have been skeptical about airing my views because
of perceived reactions.

DISCLAIMER: THESE ARE PERSONAL VIEWS, AND I, IN NO WAY CLAIM SUPREMACY OF KNOWLEDGE. FOR THE “GREYS” WHO THINK I AM TOO YOUNG TO SPEAK OF THIS SUBJECT, PLEASE PERMIT THIS CHILD TO SPEAK, THEN CORRECT HIM IF HE IS WRONG. FOR IGNORANCE CAN ONLY BE KNOWN IF IT IS AIRED, AND CAN ONLY BE CORRECTED IF IT IS KNOWN.
My points are as follows:

1. According to worldometers the median age of
Nigeria is 17.8, hence an “average ” did not
experience the civil war.

2.This is the age statistics of Nigeria as at 2014 is as
follows:
0-14 years: 43.2%
15-24 years: 19.3%
25-54 years: 30.5%
55-64 years: 3.9%
65 years and over: 3.1% (indexmundi.com)
In simpler statistics 93% of Nigerians were 5 and
below in 1967.

3. According to Wikipedia, youth age range is
between 18-35. Hence no present day Nigerian youth
saw the civil war.

My first question: since over 90% percent of us
neither saw the civil war nor participated actively,
and our youth were born 10 years after the war,
where is all the hate and agitation from?

4. The major driving force of Biafra is the igboland,
but the Biafran map includes states like Cross river,
Rivers, Delta, Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom state. This
makes Biafra a culturally diverse state. I am igbo and I currently live in Akwa Ibom state, and we share no similarity in custom or language. How then can we live together as “one Biafra” when we can’t tolerate the cultural diversity of Nigeria.

5. The Igbo tribe would become the majority tribe in
Biafra, while the others who constitute the oil
producing states hence the ‘rich boys’ would become
minority. “How can the wealth most especially that
from oil, be distributed, when the majority is in
power and the minority have the resource?”
So therefore, a time may come when the “minority”
may decide to be free, because no man wants to live
in another man’s shadow.

6. Igbos are generally regarded as traders, and the
lifeblood of their markets like Onitsha Main market
and Ariaria international market is found in Lagos
seaport where most of the goods come from. In
Biafra, Lagos becomes another country hence tax
and import/ export levies would increase drastically
and logistics would become more difficult.
The other option is to trade via the Calabar Port,
Delta Port or Rivers Port at Port Harcourt, and Onne.

These ports are only found in the non-igbo states,
hence another potential challenge.

7. What happens to Biafrans that have their
livelihood rooted deeply in non Biafran states? What
happens to the igbos that constitute the majority of
Alaba international market?

Would naturalization take place or would they
liquidate assets and return to Biafra and start
afresh?

8. Finally, the question of ruler-ship. Who rules
Biafra?

Currently, most Igbo people especially those in Abia
and Imo state are dissatisfied with the condition of
their states. They complain of bad government,
massive looting, poor infrastructures etc, and they
are currently ruled by Igbo governors.
If Biafra is formed who would rule then?

I believe it would be the same people that they
complain of, and as you can see the cycle of pain
and complaints would continue.

Problems are fixed by inward reflections not
outward projections and blame shifting.

PLEASE BEAR WITH ME, FOR A CHILD WHO DID NOT SEE THE WAR HAS SPOKEN.

chronique:
While I believe that everyone has a right to freedom of expression,I'm kinda taken aback at the level of stupidity and ignorance displayed on this thread. A man said He has a dream of something happening. This invariably means that this His dream,is more or less a wish or something He'd like to happen. That He is a prophet,doesn't translate to these dreams,being prophecies from God. The article never said He said God told Him Nigeria will break into 5 countries;so where the heck are you guys getting the nonsense you're typing from? Are Nigerians this dumb and brainless? Why do you all act like sheep and follow the crowd mentality? If you guys can't differentiate between someone saying He has a dream(which is more of a personal wish),and someone giving a prophesy(which is an intended message from God),it would be so unfortunate. Those equating the man's dreams,with prophecies from God,definitely need urgent brain transplants.

Pls let's put head together and stop this....yes it can begin online and by implication projected into a formidable step to ensuring lasting solution.

RomanceRe: There Is Nothing Like "True Love" by uncjay(op): 11:01am On Oct 20, 2015
trapQ:
I have experienced true love dear and I know ther your assertion is wrong. True love exists and it doesn't wane, it is unconditional, and never wanes. If love isn't like this, its not love.

Infuation and lust fade with time. And we have always confused these with love. The book of solomon is about a man's love for each other, it talks about true love for your partner, the kind of love that never changes.
Lolz...."HAVE EXPERIENCED" past tense.....

Ur true love indeed!
RomanceRe: There Is Nothing Like "True Love" by uncjay(op): 10:35am On Oct 20, 2015
patwickk:
I would second your opinion because as it stands, for true love to be, it must be consistent and have zero changes with time like the Love of God. Humans are fallible and inconsistent in all they do, its second to our nature.
Genuine love comes momentarily and at a point when it attains the height of its genuineness, the illusion and joyous feeling is deceptive often mistaken for true love. If adam hadn't eaten of the forbidden fruit, then I suppose who so ever your spouse is at the Eden garden then and only then can you call such love true cause its pure like we were created to be. True Love Is Gods love exclusively.
RomanceRe: There Is Nothing Like "True Love" by uncjay(op): 10:33am On Oct 20, 2015
ozimec:
I agree with you. I think there are only two examples of true love. One is Gods love to mankind which is the greatest, and the second one is the parents love to their children which can stand a test of time. Every other love is based on circumstances. It can be induced and depends on several factors. My opinion though.
Of course one can not out rule the importance of parental love towards their wards especially that of the mother....still at that you often found some parents treat their wards without an iota of sympathy or love, even the so mothers sometimes tell you how they hate one child or the other because of some issues best known to them and even some go to the extent hating because the father was not the ideal man she wanted initially......some many cases like that.

omojeesu:
Thank you! Great analysis!

But you see Love is, what it is, Love and by nature, it is true and powerful. It will stand the test of time!

Love is divine nature. If one allows God to work in and through him by His Spirit, he will be able to love as in 1st Corinthians 13. There will be occasional miss but there will be a restoration to move on in love because God is in it. This is why those who have the Spirit of Christ, like Him, can love their enemies. It is difficult, but His Spirit makes it easy!

Bless you!
Thank you sir, I like your sincerity with the divine, but you see anything divine is divine and cannot be compared to any kind that is less divine..in the article I mention 'AGAPE' that's different from others, my contention is the level that men never seems to attain but professes the quality which scale can never be justified. True love does not exist among human. My candid opinion.
RomanceRe: There Is Nothing Like "True Love" by uncjay(op): 8:48am On Oct 20, 2015
trapQ:
you're wrong. love is love, and can only be true.. but for the sale not this agreement, i'll stick with the true love.

true love is very real, and also very rare. that you've not experienced it doesn't change the reality of that fact. it is indescribable, endless and unchanging. it's selfless, unselfish,etc. when you have true love, you see absolutely no reason to cheat or betray your partner because hurting them will hurt you more.

so yeah, true love does exist.
I simply understand where exactly u coming from...if you go through the article again, I'm sure you'd see where I mention having gone through experience and series of experiments......now to you, have u ever wonder why what u call true love grow odd and gross at some point? Does true grow odd? Have u ever wondered why the said 'true' affection gets halted by circumstances of life? Maybe u need to understand my definition of true as regard love, probably then u can have a clear view of what I meant. Thank you
