When a country has to kill over 3 million of its so called citizens in other to remain one, this is no country. This is just a case of someone trying dominate another. Nigeria is just the artificial creation of the White man and hence, a fraud. I'm an Igbo man, not a Nigerian |
Kastonkastroll:What facts will Nnamdi Kanu face? That Nigeria is an artificial creation of the White man? That Nigeria is an illegal amalgamation of unconsenting ethnic groups? That Nigeria is just an exploitative instrument of deciet? That Nigeria is just a slave labour camp invented by the British for their selfish interests? That Nigeria is a fraud? The reason why Nnamdi kanu will always have the superior high ground in any argument is that Nigeria is an act of illegality that cannot be defended. It is not possible to defend a fraud. Nigeria has no legitimacy, not even the pope can justify the existence of Nigeria |
Ibeto is one of the richest men in Anambra state. I had no idea he was a former Biafran Soldier. Remarkably, 'Ibeto' roughly translates from Igbo to English as " someone who will never be praised by people" or someone who is not praise worthy |
xtervaganza:Dont distort facts. The first bombs and bullets were fired by the Nigerian Army on the Biafran border town of Garkem in July 1967. Nigeria fired first and by doing so, declared war on Biafra. Ojukwu was well within his rights to attack anywhere in Nigeria including Yoruba land. As for not accepting Gowon, Ojukwu already accepted Gowon as leader in the Aburi agreement. It was when Gowon broke that agreement that trouble started. Go and learn about the genesis of the war |
Like him or lump him, Ojukwu was an enigma. There probably never be another like him. For a man to have taken on the combined military might of Nigeria, Britain and the USSR and held them for 3 years is no small feat. USSR has since broken up, Britain nearly broke up last year and may still break up with another referendum in the offing and Nigeria will definitely break up one day, it's just a question of when. A lot of people criticise Ojukwu mainly because he lost, the same people would have been singing his praise if he had won. Some may hate him for losing but I like him for trying. In my mind, Ojukwu was a great man |
Mekurexx:[color=#550000]I don't think you understood what I was trying to say. The gift is not the problem. The problem is what happens to the gift. That gift if for God, not the pastor. No true man of God would be driving around in 29 million vehicle, given to him in the name of God, when just 3 or 4 million can get him a very good car. He should sell It, buy a less ostentatious car with about 4 million and give the rest to the poor. What do you think Jesus would have done if someone had given him such a gift in poor continent like Africa with many starving people? A true man of God shuns money and earthly things because he knows that his reward is in heaven. But these ones that are flying around in private jets, driving around in 50 million Naira Jeeps and staying in 5 star Hotels all at the expense of what their congregation gave them, they can't ever make it to heaven. |
[/b] DaBullIT: [b]They see this topic , they read the content , but don't have the balls to comment Ojukwu was a tyrant He dragged Ndi Igbo to his mess They followed Blindly He used lies, name calling, propaganda , empty promises to cajole those half educated Igbos who lived then Today Kalu is lying to Nigerians, Calling Nigeria a zoo , promising high minimum wage and some supposedly Educated Igbos are still falling in Line [b]I have read this book by NU Akpan, I even have a copy of it. Although Akpan, who was chief secretary to the Biafran Government, made a lot of valid points. One cannot help but deduce after reading the book that Apkan wrote this book to curry favour from the Government because Biafra lost the war. If Biafra had won, he would not have written the book. It's easy for everyone to "hang" the coach if the football team loses. Yes Ojukwu was a tyrant, but show me any military ruler anywhere in the world who was not a tyrant Ojukwu did not drag Igbos into any war or mess. My father was amongst the crowd of young Igbos who besieged Ojukwu daily at Governent house Enugu demanding the secession of Eastern Nigeria from Nigeria amidst the wholesale massacre of easterners that was happening at the time. When Ojukwu declared Biafra and the war started, my father signed up to the Biafran Army like thousands of others. Till today, my father never blames Ojukwu for what happened. What many Nigerians never seem to understand is that Ojukwu did exactly what his people asked of him, to declare Biafra. So how can we turn around to blame him for doing what we asked? This is why no Igbo man ever curses the name of Ojukwu despite the huge losses we suffered. Ojukwu did what we wanted and we love him for it. Nobody shouts 'one Nigeria' while 50,000 of his brethren are massacred in broad daylight. Nobody is following any body blindly, Igbos want to get out of Nigeria. Nnamdi Kanu, Uwazurike, Ben Onwuka and a host of other secessionist groups are just echoing the thoughts of the vast majority of Igbos. WE WANT OUR OWN SEPARATE SOVREIGN STATE OF BIAFRA! IT IS NOT BY FORCE TO BE A NIGERIAN! [/b] |
abitex577:This is backward thinking. Do you want to know how to identify a true man of God? A true man if God cannot be stupendously rich unless he made that money through different means. It is a sacrilege to make money with Gods name. Anything earned in the name of God must be returned to God. This pastor should sell the car and use the proceeds to help less fortunate people in soceity. 95% of all penticostal pastors who are rich or using the proceeds of their church to live the good life have no chance of getting into heaven. It's bad enough that they are jumping around the world having sex with different members of their church, collecting money for deliverance and prayers and living a Champaigne lifestyle. They have no chance at all of ever getting into heaven. |
Marotzke:Lt Col Gabriel Okonweze, the Asaba man. Him along with Nzeogwu,Olutoye and Obasunjo were all commissioned officers of the Nigerian Army in 1960. Okonweze was for a time in Enugu Barrak as a major under the command of Lt Colonel Fajuyi and later, Lt Colonel Ejoor. When Nzeogwu and co struck in 1966, Ironsi made Fajuyi Governor of the Western Region and Ejoor was made Governor of the mid-west. Okonweze was subsequently promoted to Lt Colonel and made commander of Abeokuta garrison. Unfortunately, 6 months later, Okonweze was gunned down during the counter coup by northern Soldiers as he hosted a meeting of senior officers under his command. He would have made a fine officer for Biafra |
The morron called them "Delta-Igbos" but is asking if they are Igbos. Is "Delta" an African word or an English word? |
Ogonimilitant:Im an Anambra man so I won't speak or answer for the SS. But if you need a pointer on how to answer that question, just take another look at the voting pattern in tha last presidential election in which a south-South man was one of the main contenders and you will get all the answers you need |
BMedia:Dreamer. Go and look at a good map of Imo and Abia and you will that anyone can have direct access to the Athlantic Ocean from those states. Okorocha is traitor. Outside Imo state, nobody takes him serious. As an Igbo man, may my thumb fall off if I even contemplate ever voting APC |
heavenstorm:Mechie onu! Shut up! Your fellow Yorubas know how to shout 'one Nigeria' but don't know how to practice it. I have news for you. Since you Yorubas want one Nigeria, you will get it Igbo style. There is nothing like Yoruba land, what we have is Nigeria and who owns what. I'm an Igbo man, one day, I may buy the palace of the Alafin of Oyo. And when I do, I'm going to fly a Biafran flag on top of it so that we all can enjoy one Nigeria together |
Edo state can never be part of Biafra (with the exception of the Igbanke people). So any Edo person entertaining that thought should perish it. I'm also of the ever increasing belief that Isokos,Urohbos and Itshekiris should also not be part of Biafra, these people are well known troublemakers. But it will be over my dead body as an Anambra man that Delta-Igboland or Anioma people will be left out of Biafra! |
Holding a Cathlolic priest hostage in the very church where he officiates? There's something not right about this story. Why would the Police go to a church to arrest people seeking to be blessed? Even Cathlolic priests bless armed robbers who come for blessing. That is their duty. What exactly are they going to charge them to court with? Wearing Biafran uniforms? The Nigerian Police know how to waste tax payers money and court time for nothing |
Its unfortunate that there were some ex-Biafran soldiers who could not rehabilitate themselves after the war. My father is an ex-Biafran Soldier who despite suffering gunshot and shrapnel wounds had to pick him self up after the war just like everyone else. I know another ex-Biafran Soldier who fought alongside my father but was unfortunate to be caught by the Nigerian Army. Those that caught him decided not to kill him but to amputate his arms! Despite having no hands, the man is today married with grown up children and owns a successful building materials retail business. Some ex-Biafran Soldiers just could not go back to normal life after the war, some suffered psychological damage, some even waited for years to see if Ojukwu would come back to continue the war. Those who could not move on we're the ones that suffered the most. But I'm proud of what they fought for and in my eyes, they are all great men |
superstar1:[b]Many people like you have asked this same baseless question on Nairaland. "Why can't Igbos just go back to the east and declare Biafra?". The answer to this is that doing so will not give us Biafra. We Igbos did the same thing in 1967 when we all went back en mass and declared Biafra, it didn't stop the federal Government of Gowon shouting 'one Nigeria' all over the place and coming for us. Only a morron will ask Igbos to go back home without giving them a home to go back to. Biafra must declared or agreed to in principle, there must be a withdrawal of all non Biafran Government employees from the east before we go. Igbos will not move from Nigeria to Nigeria, they can only move from Nigeria to Biafra. As for this talk about Nigerians holding us back, naturally, this is still possible because the odds are stacked against Biafra. Just as in the first Biafran war, Igbos have the entire North, the Yorubas and some people from the South-South to contend with so it will never be a fair fight. But this in no way diminishes our resolve to be free of Nigeria. You think the Igbos would still be in Nigeria if Nigeria was just made up of the SW/SE/SS? That is why it is very important to seek Biafra through peaceful means such as a referendum or plebicite first, even if to avoid unnecessary bloodshed. It is only when the voice of reason does not prevail that the option of war will be looked at. In 1966 to 67, people besieged Ojukwu to declare Biafra amidst widespread massacre but Ojukwu resisted and had the temerity of mind to go to Ghana to sign a peace agreement with Gowon. It was when Gowon broke that agreement that Ojukwu declared Biafra. If anything, we Igbos can hold our heads high that we have rejected the British created house of fraud called Nigeria. I'm sure in 100 years, your ethnic grou will not be able to do this [/b] |
It should be noted that the numbering system for the Army at the time was the 'N' system. Wellington Bassey was (N1) as the first commissioned officer of the Nigerian Army. Ironsi (N2) Ademulegun (N3) Nwawo (N10) Ejoor (N17) |
SUBWAY101:Wherever Lord Lugard is today, I'm sure he is also saying a big "Amen" to that |
SUBWAY101:You may not know this but the internet is the largest mass awareness portal there is. Biafra is being discussed online on a global level using NL,Facebook,Skype groups, YouTube and many others. Win any argument online and you win the heart of the people. Win the heart of the people and the sky is the limit. It may sound like ranting to you but online media can be more devastating than bullets and bombs |
Edo state and Edo people! You are not part of the Biafran project and you are not wanted! Edo state can never be part of Biafra except for the small Igbo speaking Igbanke people. So what are you Edo people bothered about when Biafrans have already told you people that you are not wanted? This OP is talking the SS region, the same SS region that is not even recognised in the constitution. Some people don't seem to realise that the so called regions, the SW,SE,SS are just terms the Abacha Government came up with for economic planning. The regions have no legal standing in Nigeria. All of a sudden, an Edo man is claiming to be brother with an Oron man because an unconstitutional region. The same unconstitutional region is why someone thinks that Igboland ends in the SE. This thread is stupid |
superstar1:Which is why they badly need their own independent have Homeland of Biafra where they can finally call home. |
eneidoko:If you call the quest for freedom bigoted, then I can only but pray for you. As for other countries that were colonies, what is my business with them as an Igbo man? Is it a must that I have to conform like they do? This is all about the right of the Igbo man to seek his own country if he so wishes and not about being conformist |
You will have to explain what a "Deltan" is because I truly have no idea |
aldrick:[b]Just look at the map you drew! I hope you know that the SE/SS are geographical locations that are not even recognised in the contitution? Ethnic groups are what make countries not man made geographical locations. You decietfuly drew a map of Igbo land and only put the 5 Igbo States in it. What about the Delta-Igbos who make up more than 30% of Delts state? What about the Rivers Igbos who make up about 70% of Rivers state? Where are the cross river and lower Benue Igbos? That map is a fraud. Another thing that is wrong with that map is that you did not include the water ways in it but you conveniently asked if Igbo land is landlocked. How can Igboland be landlocked? There are tributuaries running from Abia and Imo state into the Athlantic Ocean so how can we be landlocked? Seaports can be built in Abia and Imo. Do you think Porthacourt or Apapa wharfs are by the sea? They are not. Those ports are inland and ships ply the waterways to get to them. Get it into your head, a country does not need to have a coast line to bring in goods by ship. What a country needs is dredged waterways and Igboland has this. We are not landlocked in anyway whatsoever. Next time you want to talk about Biafra and the Niger-Delta Republic, refere to it by the tribes because I can assure you that should both countries emerge (which I'm not against), we Igbos will not concede one inch of Igboland to Niger-Delta Republic! [/b] |
[b]personally as an Igbo man, I don't see anything likeable about Buhari. Besides the fact that he is a Hausa-Fulani man who are arch-enemies of us Igbos, Buhari himself is nothing to write home about. All he came to do is to represent his fellow parasites up in the north and their born to rule mentality. Buhari simply did what all past Nigerian military heads of state have at one time or the other done. They all tried to come back as civilian heads of state. Buhari himself only got to were he is in life by being a successful coup plotter. When the Yoruba media talk about how corrupt the regime of GEJ was, they just expose themselves as hypocrites. OBJ's Government was just as corrupt as GEJ, it did not stop the Yoruba nation rallying round to help give him a second term. If GEJ had been a Yoruba man, there would have been no APC and nobody would have been shouting 'change!' in the SW. We Igbos had a choice, Buhari or GEJ. There was no way the Igbos were going to leave their Ijaw neigbour, no matter how corrupt his regime was, to vote a man like Buhari who represents everything bad about military dictatorship in Nigeria. Even in 4 years time, Igbo will still not vote for Buhari if he contests. But I'm very confident that we Igbos will have left Nigeria for Biafra by then anyway so it won't matter to us [/b] |
laudate:I don't give a rata$$ if the Yorubas or any other ethnic group wants to be Nigerians, that's their business. My main concern is for my people, the Igbos, to exit this cursed union called Nigeria. |
laudate:Brainwashed? I don't need to be brainwashed. My father was a Biafran soldier and he told me the story of the war himself. Everyone in our family were Biafran supporters long before I ever heard of Kanu or Radio Biafra. I know that the concept of freedom will be lost on someone like you who cannot see past 'one Nigeria' so I will leave one of my quotes below for you to digest What is Nigeria? An illegal amalgamation of unconsenting ethnic groups? An artificial creation of the white man? A forced marriage? A business organisation set up by Lugard to make money? A highly derogative term invented by Lords Lugards girlfriend after she heard about the river Niger? Take your pick in the above. Nigeria is an illegal entity that has no shred of legitimacy. A country is only gotten by the direct permission of the indigenous native people, not by force. It is the God given right of Igbos to decide what they are, Biafrans or Nigerians. It is not for Lugard or Yorubas or Hausas to tell us who we are. 200 years ago, all these people didn't even know each other, now they shout 'one Nigeria' because Lord Lugard came from Britain to tell them it should be that way. Nigeria is a fraud, Nigeria is a forced marriage, Nigeria in its self is an act of illegality. [/color][/b] |
I just hope that one day, IPOB and MASSOB can unite or reach a common ground so as to Forster Biafra. Either way, I have no doubt that we shall be free of this evil entity called Nigeria some day

If he doesnt have that sort of car for himself shouldn't bother you, but at least he bought it as a sign of appreciation. And my bible tells me also, that ''sacrifices'' or ''pledges'' should take a sting out of you, meaning one should go the extra mile if one wants to truly show appreciation. and for someone in a life and death situation, buying a car or jet is nothing compared to life or a healthy luvung. I dont see anything wrong with what the pastor did. God will judge us all. Good or bad[/b]
And keep using the word 'slave'. You are only reminding us of your middle name.
