The Biafra issue isn't like the Catalonia or Palestinian issue. The worlds medias know about it and are pinning it all on "Bad governance". BBC said they are protesting for a "Better Nigeria", The economist said the protest was fuel by politicians and bad governance. They equally mentioned Boko haram and the militants.
The world are not really in sympathy with you, It is unlikely for you to even get your Biafra soon because they have been an unlikely change of government. Buhari just has to prove he isn't like the past leaders and the UN would shut your Biafra mouths.

Superficially, they were sparked by the arrest of Nnamdi Kanu, the outspoken head of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB)movement, and director of Radio Biafra, a pirate station. But the grievances run deep. Nigeria did not exist until British colonialists drew a line around hundreds of fractious ethnic groups dominated by the Igbo in the east, the Yoruba in the west, and the Hausa-Fulani in the north. The country’s regions have jostled for power ever since. Predominantly Igbo protesters have not forgotten that tens of thousands of their people were killed BEFORE Biafra unilaterally declared independence in 1967

bokohalal:
Your use of the adverb STILL is very suggestive. You already believe that Igbanke is discriminated against by the Binis. Let an Igbanke indigene come on this forum or anywhere else and make a case of the nature of Bini discrimination.

Ò ̣ bù ̣etu à kà o bēlụ? Must everybody agree with you?? Must you force your opinion down everybody's throat? Must every Igbo man want Biafra, when he can decide to choose America, Germany, Ireland or anywhere else as his own country?? Please, live and let live. Egbe bèlụ ùgò bèlụ ǹke sịlị ibè ya ebènà ǹkù kwaa yā!

Brother Forgiveness!, think about the average yoruba man, do you think they all agree with their leaders? infact the yorubas love the igbos and are always proud to have them geographically close. we need each other to progress, even most yorubas eat igbo food nowadays and even cook them at home. i'm not trying to woo anyone but i thought about the benefits and decided to air my view.

Imagine some people jubilating over other people’s misfortune.

Nigerians Growing Poorer For First Time Since 1999 - Businessday

Nigerians are growing poorer for the first time since the return to democracy in 1999 as an economic slowdown combines with still high population growth rates to curb income per capita. Average incomes in Nigeria will fall by about 18 percent in 2015 to $2,550 per annum, from over $3,000 in 2014.

This is why I still see these IPOB boys as street urchins.

I'm Igbo by the way before you begin bashing.

A speech by Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe:
"Racism will never end as long as white cars are still using black tires. Racism will never end if people still use black to symbolize bad luck and white for peace. Racism will never end if people still wear white clothes to weddings and black clothes to funerals. Racism will never end as long as those who don't pay their bills are blacklisted not white-listed. Even when playing snooker. You haven't won until you've sunk the black ball, and the white ball must remain on the table. But I don't care, as long as I'm still using white toilet paper to wipe my black butt , I'm fine!"..

Anwunta nkea n'ata ajo aru! Grandma must hear this o! Having given her blessings already!

Candyrain:
Boy ke? Where's the boy, huh?

enstack:
Seriously? I am selfish and Wicked? Everywhere i go, he wants to be there! He wanted to accompany me to a women convention(Women Only)! Amongst almost 200 Women very few men were there because its a thing for women not for couples. He threatened to Hang Himself.

So I am selfish because I dont want my husband turning me to his boss and he is my P.A? Sometimes he would hold my purse or handbag and sometimes people would begin to ask "Is he your husband or your driver?"

Candyrain:
But I didn't snitch on you brother, you know that. It was just a coincident she saw what she wasn't supposed to see.

But i did my one yr serviec at One CRC in Aguata LGA back in 2013 and i didnt see any sign of brilliancy in them. Only few of the girls are trying. May be Obiano is changing things for the better sha.

kenny987:
I know I am late to this convo...however, in fairness to the APC they have launched a 'Suggestion Box' at the Senate which is unique and all theirs. GEJ and PDP have no copyright on this.

Meanwhile I see u charging for some services...hmm

Candyrain:
Thank you for understanding. It was actually about sowing a seed, don't ask me the ground on which the seed will be sown.
