Observing keenly.

Certainly, there's a spiritual approval for the current events in Nigeria and America. Ndigbo have suffered so much and God is not blind nor deaf to our plight and prayers. As God appointed and approved Cyrus of Persia to see to the reconstruction of Jerusalem's wall so He has appointed President Donald Trump to aid the re-emergence of Biafra. This is the age of freedom and it is on our side. We have not coveted anyone's land or property. All we desire is a separate entity of existence from those who love to hate us for no reason. Chukwu Abiama Gi ka anyi nõ n'aka.

The OP certainly doesn't know much about Nigeria, if he had known then he wouldn't have even contemplated discussing about continuing with this Nigeria. There's no united vision for the contraption. While you're busy building others are more interested in tearing down.

What about Christian organizations? Aren't they still part of Nigeria? Must Christians now join the MSSN or should they just stop all their religious associations and gatherings? I would want to hear from Mynd44.

You are indeed a first class dolt.

Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic were caught after so many years on the run. The ICC is yet to conclude their trials. Who will bring back the thousands whose killings they sanctioned from the dead? Or the more than 3,000 men and boys slaughtered in Srebenica?

- How many of the RUF commanders and soldiers have ever been convicted of the atrocities in Sierra Leone? I can tell you: ZERO! ZILCH, NADA, NOUGHT! They were all granted amnesty as part of the peace process!

- A US soldier woke up one morning, walked into an Afghan village and killed 18 people. The US never submitted him for trial in Afghanistan, but decided he should be tried at home in the US. The sentence he got? You can Google that and find out.

- How many war crimes were punished during the 1967-1970 civil war? Name one person who was convicted for war crimes.

What is the lesson here? I can categorically tell you that as long as we have a Northerner in power, the Army will continue to be unleashed on these protesting youths with deadly force. And the herdsmen who actually kill people WILL GO SCOT FREE as they have been for a very long time to come.

So if you are waiting for the police or army to handle them with kid gloves, you will wait forever. If you want to be an IPOB advocate, good luck to you. Pray you never end up like that 17 year old boy, Mr Idealist!

Get real and tell your friends in IPOB to stop this stupid agitation that will never result in any Biafra and will only lead to more people being killed.

Please note: the civil war started as a "police action". It took only two and half years for 3 million people to wind up dead! If you are an IPOB sympathizer, show your sympathy by talking sense into your people.

You have no conscience whatsoever. We have decided to take the bull by the horn. You don't qualify to tell us what to do because you are inherently a defeatist. As for those murdering our people, we shall hunt tgem down even after we get our aim. We have videos of them. If you're not aware, Igbos are not scared of another war. We don't want a war but still if that's the only way then we shall face it. Strong American, Israeli and some European allies are what we've be working for and presently God has been merciful to us. You will dread the Igbo man you meet in the war front. All the taunting, mockery, hatred and wanton killings you lots have heaped on us will be offloaded on you. Just like the Jews faced their enemies after the destruction of Haman, so shall we encircle our enemies and feed them with pain, misery and death. Its our time of freedom. The age has chosen us and God has had our cries. Any mortal that stands in the way shall be crushed.

stagger:
His mates are in Silicon Valley and places like that in China and all over the world. But at 17 years, he allowed himself to be dragged into things he never understood.

17 years old means he was born in 1999 or 2000.
- never saw the horrors of 1967-1970
- was too young to watch the news of people's limbs being hacked off by the RUF in Sierra Leone.
- did not watch the horrors of Sarajevo as presented by Christiane Amanpour between 1993-1995.
- doesn't know a thing about war.

Yet he went marching on the streets of PH for IPOB, for a maniac who has used his radio station to brainwash thousands of youths into a baseless and unachievable dream of a "Biafran" republic for which 3 million people died between 1967 - 1970.

Very sad. I weep for the youths of this country.

You are evil like the devil himself. You couldn't even question why the murderous Nigerian Army will have to use shoot live ammunitions on celebrants. You are despicable.

azimibraun:
Human feelings does not prevent the truth being told. How many of Nnamdi kanu's irect blood reltives hve pid the supreme price? Aside the fact that nobody's life should go this way, this is not a legitimate struggle. It's fake and it's treasonable and violent participants may die in the process. He has died in the process and will be very forgotten.

Your existence is of no value whatsoever and your entire being shall be of no consequence. No one will weep for you when your sudden demise in a cruel way shall be reported to multitudes.

The way kids come online to start a thread about Igbos without bothering to first make a detailed research is disturbing. If you ask the OP now to tell you about who the Igbos are and how to differentiate them from other easterners he would fail flatly but here he is dishing out advise. Go and make your research then return and ask questions. We will gladly explain to you in details what your dubious Nigerian academic world has been feeding you.

rhymaster:
Ibos are in fora night of long knives on a permanent basis for as much as they continue to create problems in Nigeria and outside Nigeria. Think about it, they are emptily proud, dishonest and will do anything for money or gain: the perfect recipe for failure in life! If you see a sane Ibo man, who deviates from this profile, he was born, raised and working in the SW, North or outside Nigeria in a developed society! The ibos can claim anything they want but they will be so shocked that when the rubber meets the road, the rest of Nigeria will send them directly back to their pigeon hell-hole called ibo land and we will maintain and develop our own country while having them surrounded on every side as Ibos are expansionist, greedy and desperate to claim another man's property! To make it easier for them to take other people's land and resources in Nigeria, they always wish Nigeria is not a strong nation like it is becoming again under Buhari and the APC. A strong nation can stand-up to any other nation, and can protect and defend its territorial integrity so far as the economy is doing well, the military and morale is sky high, the people have hope and a progressive life and do not feel that top leadership of the country has cornered their patrimony.

This is why Nigeria was almost destroyed under Jonacluless and the legions of clueless ibos who lead the army, finance ministry, governance, etc. They wanted to weaken Nigeria as much as possible so the country would not be able to mount a strong challenge when push came to shove but they failed! I want ibos to get biafra under a strong and ever progressive Nigeria! They will be 100% fenced in and Nigeria will regulate the flow of human beings, animals and food, etc through our borders as we would not owe ibos any damned thing! They will have no rights to produce any weapons, light or even cudgels or anything beyond small kitchen knives for killing their rodents which they will eat for food. Ibos cannot be trusted, they always wanted to hold down the minorities (the SS) and if it wasn't for strong Nigerian leaders in the past, most of the SS would be slaves under the ibos today!

Hmmm. See hatred! This coward can't even talk about the people he knows but prefer wishing Ndigbo evil. Fulanis killed his King Afonja and took over Ilorin and by extension all other Yorubalands in the present Kwara state but his fear is strictly the Igbo man. I wonder what sort of psychological illness he's suffering from.

WORDWORLD:
A problem of the BLACK RACE is without doubt LACK OF SELF-ESTEEM.

Those IPOB were all out blowing their trumpets for TRUMP who gives not a FVCK about them, A DEMONSTRATION OF LACK OF SELF-ESTEEM.

And if, by miracle he eventually does show concern. His miracle is going to be to turn your country to like LIBYA, SYRIA, IRAQ,..........................the list is endless and while he and his allies loot your wealth turning your women to widows and your children to orphans.

Continue calling for their attention since you have choosen to be so HOPELESS slaves.

YES, SLAVES!!!

Like your President, Muhammadu Buhari who has run to his MASTERS in U.K to spend his vacation. THE WAYS OF A SLAVE. Yet he has forcefully closed your boarders to prevent foreign goods, destroyed your Naira in the Forex Market to laughably boost MADE IN NIGERIAN GOODS. The result is too glaring to see HARSHER, HARDER LIFE for the masses who STUPIDLY were ready to die for another man's SELFISH GOAL. Those who could feed themselves and their families from the little the used to earn from hard work's sweat have turned to BEGGARS beecause they can't afford to buy the GARRI anymore which used to be a consolation for their poverty. What was the price of Garri, what is the price of Garri today. What has. Buhari gone to enjoy in London for vacation? MADE IN NIGERIA!?

BLACKS WILL FORVER REMAIN SLAVES AS LONG AS THEY CONTINUE TO LIVE A LIFE OF LACK OF SELF-ESTEEM.

This is NOT a racist post. Its aimed at making you BLACKS to think. Change your mentality and be grateful and proud of who you are. You keep killing one another, just like in the U.S.A the highest casualties from Gun. Violence is BLACKS AND BY BLACKS IN BLACK COMMUNITY. #Fact, go do your research.

Righteousness is what counts not color of the skin nor what comes out of our vocal codes called language.

ITS AN IRONY THAT THE WARLORD, THE DREAMER BEHIND THE NIGHTMARE CALLED BIAFRA, CHUKWUEMEKA ODUMEGWU OJUKWU WAS ALL WRAPED UP AFTER HE DIED IN THE FLAGS OF THE SAME COUNTRY HE SELFISHLY WISHED TO TEAR APART AND NOT EVEN THE BIAFRAN FLAG, HIS DREAM AND EVERYONES ELSE'S NIGHTMARE EXCEPT THE GULLIBLE. SO MUCH BLOOD WAS WASTED FOR NOTHING AS IT IS STILL BEING WASTED TODAY. THOSE IPOB KILLED HAVE PUT THEIR MOTHERS IN AGONY, A LIFE OF SORROW. YOUTHS WHO SURRENDER FOR THE SLAUGHTER BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO DREAMS OF THEIR OWN BUT LIVING A DEAD MAN'S DREAM. WHAT A LIFE OF EMPTINESS BY CHOICE!!!

You hypocrite are the one with low self esteem. You're so scared to condemn the murderous Nigerian Army who always flee when confronted by boko haram but turn round to blame IPOB members celebrating with Donald Trump. If they chose to rejoice with Trump what's your concern? Don't you have your favourite European club you support and passionately rejoice at their victory? You hypocrite! Face the guilty demons called Nigerian security personnel and speak out against them like every civilized human will do. Their time of recompense will soon come.

maasoap:
And for how many months will such community or village spend with one eye closed and one opened ,day and night? Better don't start a war that you can't finish or win.

Malo, you can't threaten anyone. Fulani settlement are scattered and well known. It only takes the assembly of men who have been victim's of their previous attacks to spray bullets on any living thing there which you is easy to do. Soon your cups will be full. The fulanis greatest tool is manipulation. They are good at it but it only works on those who don't know them well.

Mynd44:
This is really sad coming from a supposed religious leader. It is sad coming from any human being.

So people should kill any herdder whether innocent or not?

In the words of Tupac "I am one black man; I cannot be held responsible for the actions of every black man"

I wonder when we as human beings will stop living via hatred and revenge and learn to express our anger instead of acting like that thing we are trying to fight

I don't know this sermon from you is not directed to El Rufai or any fulani when they slaughter people. Any reason for that?

Did he patent the cakes's design?

Ioannes:
#sigh.

Dear "biafrans".

If you like turn to bird and start flying in the sky, Buhari can not grant you a referendum. Neither can Donald J. Trump. Neither can the UN.

Buhari is bound by his oath of office to secure and preserve the unity of this country. He can't even initiate a constitution amendment to that effect. That would be a treasonable offence on his part. Impeachable for that matter.

You want Biafra?

Lean hard on your senators.

Otherwise 500 years from now your great great great grandchildren will be trekking the same streets you're trekking today protesting for Biafra.

Lol. See the way you speak as though you were God Himself. Like Haman like Ioannes. Your gallows shall be 500 decimetre high and multitude will see it.

Bluntmaster:
Where did we hold you from leaving Nigeria? The last time i checked no one from the SW is holding you, we even support you to go your ways cos we have nothing in common. You hate us and we hate you too with passion.

Wole Soyinka was jailed cos of biafra, even though he still support it till now but you people insult and curse him daily. Afenifere group, FFK, Fayose and many Yorubas support it so how are Yorubas holding you? I am waiting on how Yorubas are holding you from leaving Nigeria.

Then stop supporting the murderous Nigerian Army killing our people as they protest unarmed. Tell your people to stop fighting against our quest on the media. Stop lying against the Igbo nation and stop poke nosing on our affairs. We wish you well as you mind your business in a Nigeria without ndigbo. We equally appreciate the Yorubas that are supporting us as we march towards the realisation of Biafra. Any treachery from anyone who renegades on this our understanding may it not be well with him and his family and all that's like him.

Yet the thread stands with such a baseless accusation against a nation. Where are the pix? The title says killed while the content is talking about a purported robbery. Where are the moderators?

Bluntmaster:
[s][/s]

Same way you taunt Agatu people, boko haram victims and mile 12 saga victims. You mock others here daily but now playing the victim card, you wish death for the Yoruba people even when they have done nothing wrong to you. You curse and wish them death daily on your radio biafra and the facebook page. May all your evil intentions/wish for the Yoruba people go back to you in million folds. Amen!!!

Ok. Can you tell the world why you want Igbos out of your region but still don't want them out of Nigeria? Why do you hate a people but want to share the same country with them? Hypocrisy? Wickedness or Purely evil intentions? We are waiting for your answer.

Ballmer:
If the intention of the Nigeria army was to destroy native Igbo land trust me with poor or no insightful ingenuity or management from black African or any of it's leaders you will have no place to call a homeland till date and that is putting it mildly. So forget about your chest beating you pride yourself on. Nigeria actually gave you hope when you were hopeless, gave you a human face when you were suppose to have been crushed.


http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/library/report/1992/AAA.htm

Do you know what a surrender is ? The mighty USA with all is intelligence and weaponry is still unable to defeat a handful of ragtag Taliban spanning several decades now in Afghanistan till date.

That is what brilliance is about, a leader's ingenuity. That is what the East lacked during and after the war. Someone with a brain, all you had and still have are handful of lily-livered boastful asswipe as leaders. Your fore father in the like of Ojukwu and others bragged harder than you are doing at the moment they forget bragging was not war tactic or skill. We are talking about when you were fairly / well represented in the Nigeria army not relying on some Ipob miscreant to prosecute your cause. What you could not achieve when you had Igbo men of steel, how do you achieve that with only Ipob miscreants ?

Do not also forget the hate and scorn with which you comment is mutual btw the FG and "Biafra". No be only Biafra sabi hate.

Lol. Only fools think that open wars should be fought before a country is broken. Boko Haram with soldiers less than a hundred thousand has dealt a big blow to Nigeria's economy. How much did that cause Nigeria? Hugely a cause of the present recession. What your Army is doing now is just hardening more young men and when the trumpet sounds everyone will feel the heat. Only fools keep on being killed without putting up a resistance. Don't complain when it starts. Remember they were unarmed and you all supported the murderous NA.

QuotaSystem:
The needless loss of life was completely avoidable. IPOB should desist from further deliberate provocation of the Nigerian State and her armed forces.

This secessionist nonsense in its current form will clearly not be tolerated in anyway so any deliberate acts of civil disobedience with the potential to puncture public peace, should be halted or avoided to prevent recurrence.

May the souls of the fallen rest in peace.

Soon the nozzle will face you, don't complain if you survive the experience.

Ioannes:
At least three of Nigeria's worst leaders are pictured in that room.

14 years of rulership between Obj and Gej and Nigeria is still struggling with basic amenities like electricity and water after spending billions of $$.

Your points are noted and understood but they constitute less danger than you know. Some day you will need them so much. There are reasons why the whites don't just kill men that have tasted power. They might be bad but they are assets you might fall back to when confronted with a maze.

Ioannes:
I wish that place was bombed accidentally by the NAF.

Lol. Why if I may ask?

I can see a lot of Yorubas here supporting the killing of IPOB members celebrating the inauguration of President Donald Trump. Your minds have been locked with hatred such that it can't function properly again. To you their lives don't matter simply because they're clamouring for a separate existence from you. But I tell you that your destruction is near and it shall be great news to our ears. You have made yourselves a torn in the flesh of other men who have not sought any of your belongings or property. They have not harmed any of your people or attacked your land yet day in day out you wish them death and heap curses on them. Soon you shall feel the heat too and will have no where to run to. Mark my words. You perambulate nairaland looking for any Igbo thread to show your hatred. In the same way shall your enemies seek your hide out and torture you. You avoid Yoruba threads because you're empty of any reasonable discourse only to spew rubbish on meaningful Igbo only threads. Thank God this is an online forum where the whole world can read our comments and assess us for who we really are. Your hate filled posts would have smeared the reputation of sane Yorubas the world over. Desist henceforth from this bile filled comments you make towards the IPOB of which I'm proudly a member and you may just escape the agony that awaits your type.

Abagworo:
The sad truth is that more people will die in vain for being brainwashed by radio biafra. I wish they'll be sensible enough to understand that they are being deceived by politicians who lost power in 2015.

Abagworo, sometimes you speak like one who doesn't think things through before commenting. How can a people fighting for the future of their people equal to them being deceived? Sometimes, it's better not to comment if there's nothing reasonable to say.

kettykin:
It took the air Force less than 24 hour's to fly troops to Gambia while to fly troops to southern Kaduna is taking a while.


Fellow Africans, one can not help but wonder at the speed of light it took the Nigerian military and air Force to deploy troops to quench the fire which they want to ignite in a neighboring country while the fire burning in our backyard is left unattended for many months.

Nice observation. Yet some sophisticated people will blame you for telling the truth. Left for me, the greatest punishment we can give to them is to push harder for our freedom and ensure we get it. This will leave them to face the monster they love to cheer on its patg of destruction. Then, we become deaf to their cries and blind to their tears by closing our borders. I've never seem such sycophantic people.

HarkymTheOracle:
Once upon a time in a village, a man appeared and announced that he would buy monkeys for N100 each. The villagers seeing that there were so many monkeys around, went out to the forest and started catching them.

The man bought thousands at N100 and as supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their efforts. He further announced that he would now buy at N200. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again. Soon the supply diminished and people started going back to their farms. The offer rate increased to N250 but the supply of monkeys became so little that it took much effort to even see a monkey, let alone catch one.

The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at N500! However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would now buy on his behalf.

In the absence of the man, his assistant told the villagers: ''Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that my OGA has bought from you, I will sell them to you at N350 and when my OGA returns from the city, you can sell it to him at N500''.

The villagers squeezed out all their HARD EARNED savings and bought all the monkeys. The most greedy ones among them even sold their lands to purchase many MONKEYS, hoping to make a huge profit without labor.

Then...

They never saw the man or his assistant. Only monkeys everywhere!

Welcome to #MMM.
The world of Monkeys

That was very creative of you. Although, MMM doesn't work like that but you still capture the psychology behind the scheme. Many will gloss over your write up and lose the message thereof.

One thing is sure; genocide is ongoing. Lovers of one Nigeria, may you have no one to run to when they come for you. Death is everywhere in Nigeria and people still pretend that all is well.

Lol. The only thing that we want is progress. As long as they are doing their duties progressively, they are good to go. Ndi Igbo nine bu ofu. Unu enyekwana ndi obata-otisie efe I tinye ugba n'ife anyi n'eme.

Listen to this abracadabra at your own peril. Those who want to stay afloat must try as much as they can to save their money in foreign currency. There's nothing in place to help the comatose naira. No any solid manufacturing base in Nigeria and even the oil sales will soon drop again. Meanwhile, a lot of foreign companies are pulling out dollars from the system putting pressure on the already tight availability of the currency. This is simple economics. By April, 1 dollar should have been above N510. Madam Adeosun knows no economics.

helpee:
Let us for once refuse to follow the general consensus. What if jameeh is right that the election is rigged? What is the way out? Why are the other leaders shutting him out without a fair hearing? The solution is not always war. What the ecowas leaders should do is to give everybody fair hearing...1) by helping the tiny nation with judges that can speedily hear their cases at the supreme court. 2) if need be, reorganize the election under strict reviews monitoring. The guy also deserved a fair hearing and there is a reason why electoral disputes are taken to court. What we are all saying is that he couldn't ever win. The electoral body is not infallible so the rule of law should be allowed to prevail not force

You have a point. What if Jammeh was right? To get a clue to what is happening in The Gambia, you have to investigate who his opponent (Adama Barrow)is. Does he have any connection with Nigeria and to be specific- Buhari? All these are questions that help us understand what's happening. Why is Buhari eager to drag other countries to unseat him without hearing him out? Let's do the research and speak out based on concrete reasons. Thanks

Nice pix but I doubt the age given here. Firstly, how old is Ifeanyi hmself to have had a grandfather of that age? Besides, the old man doesn't look that frail for someone of that age.
