[b]There is a popular saying that to keep Nigeria one is a task that must be done. We need ourselves more than ever. There is strenght in our diversity and if properly utilized we can build a stronger Nigeria. The Igbos really need to drop this idea of Biafra because it is dead on arrival. Secession is not the solution to the high poverty rate in the south east neither will it eliminate greedy politicians who have refused to let the SE thrive. The igbos need to look inward and look for ways they can develop their region within the Nigerian context. We the Yorubas are not bothered about breaking away. We worked so hard to develop Lagos and the South west so everyone can thrive and this is why the igbos and other tribes keeps flocking to the SW to tap from the potentials and opportunities Yoruba land has to offer. This is the kind of mentality the Igbos need to develop. South sudan broke away from sudan and still nothing has changed because they remain poor and depend on aids to survive. The igbos need to work together with every section of Nigeria so they can be relevant in the Nigerian system instead of calling we the Yoruba's slaves to Hausa-fulani. The igbos are the real slaves here because they are the ones in bondage and yearning for freedom.The igbos should remember the last civil war and never allow Nnamdi Kanu to lure them into another blood bath. Biafra is a dream that cant be realized. We will support the Hausa-Fulanis to resist any form of secession. We will defend the unity of One Nigeria just like we did in the late 60's. A word is enough for the wise.


SAY NO TO BIAFRA

GOD BLESS OUR UNITED NIGERIA.[/b]

Your beef against Lord Lugard is not just pathetic, it is ridiculous. The chap died many years ago, and you are still here bearing grudges for the man! Chai!

Meanwhile, what is all this talk about Nigeria being a terrorist state? Are you not the one that just said you are ready to die for Biafra?



My beef with Lugard? I'm a Biafran, nothing concerns with Lugard. The beef is people like you who are answering the slave name the man bestowed on you people. Go and rid your self of colonial mentality and acquire a sense of self determination then come back and tell me who you are. I don't have dealing with people still locked in the mental slavery of "one Nigeria"

Bro', talk is cheap! Get off the internet and lead the next protest march. Make sure you are right in front of the procession, so that next time those bullets fly, it will not miss you! Then we would know you are a man of your words!

Are you ready to die for biafra?

Nigeria will always be the only home of the Ibos whether you like it or not. You guys better start seeing Buhari as your president or else.........

The Idiosyncratic Nature of the agitation of a So called Biafra republic is nonsensical and ambiguous, there is no sense in it whatsoever, rather the struggle and the agitation for a republic of Biafra by the Ibos have turned them against every Nigerian, and this will have very dire consequences for the Ibo children yet unborn and even the current ibo people in Nigeria, the agitation for a republic of Biafra by the Ibos has shown Nigerians the true Nature of the Ibos, and it is very disheartening, because this agitation proves that the Ibos are very selfish and myopic, why do the Ibos constantly clamor to be killed? Why do the Ibos constantly seek to assert themselves on other Nigerians? These and many other questions are what most Nigerians are asking in their hearts, why can't the Ibos be content? Are the Ibos suffering more than the people of the Niger Delta, whose environments have been degraded and their sources of livelihood destroyed over the years by oil exploration? The Ibos have proved yet again that they can not produce a Nigerian President, and to be honest, I think it would take a very long time before the Ibos can produce a President in this country, the ibos are the most Tribal Ethnic Group in Nigeria, and it is because of the Ibos that Nigeria has not developed much since independence, because of their constant retrogressive activities, if Nigeria had not fought a civil war, Nigeria would have developed faster than we have developed, and now in this modern age of reasoning the Ibos have come again, like spoilt children, clamoring to kill all Non Ibos living in The "Zoo" called Nigeria. But the truth Is this, the rest of Nigeria has now seen the Ibos for who they are, and they are nothing but selfish and arrogant people, and if it'll take president buhari in sending the Military to the east to quell this current Insurgency brewing there, then I support it wholeheartedly, because the Ibo people clamoring for a Republic of Biafra, are Deluded, and disillusioned, maybe the Nigerian Army can help wake them from their Delusion. Long Live The Federal Republic Of Nigeria.

The Sardauna was merely vocalising what was normal in all the other three regions (West, Midwest & East) at that time; he like his regional counterparts was protecting and working for the best interest of his people.

That easily explains why his speech didn't raise any eyebrows then or was not considered out of place by any of his contemporaries; his present critics are only doing so out of political mischief or at best out of ignorance of the realities on ground at that stage in Nigeria's history, when it once existed as a regional country with regional champions in healthy competition with one another.

The Sardauna was also correct about the Igbo desire to dominate (which is not outrightly a bad thing but could be a problem if it should become disproportionate, especially in a multiethnic mix such as Nigeria) which also could explain for the event that followed, eventually costing the Sardauna his own life along with many innocent others.

Because of this desire to dominate, Igbos couldn't stand the fact that northerners were at the helm of affairs in charge of the country, they hated that Hausa/Fulani (who they deem as inferior) were in fact dominant over them.

When they realised they couldn't change things through the ballot box; they then instead decided to do it by force, through the barrel of the gun.

The primary executioners of this reversal, the Igbo coup plotters, were themselves short changed by another Igbo man, Agui Ironsi, who took over power and furthered the Igbo agenda by demolishing the regional system of government that was hitherto in place and replaced it with the unitary system (we have inherited till today) in order to give him (thereby Igbo) full control over the entire country.
He furthermore completed the Igbo agenda by appointing his fellow kinsmen into key positions in government and the civil service.

That along with his fellow Igbos openly taunting northerners about the lopsided killing of their leaders (the Sardauna & co) and changes clearly giving Igbos undue advantage over northerners, were what that broke the camel's back and led to the northern led counter coup of July 1966 which brought Gowon into power.

In short, we are all now paying for this Igbo sin to force change and dominate everybody; they have ended up derailing and messing up the whole country - after doing so, they are now blaming everybody and wanting to jump ship for Biafra - quite unfortunate.

SUBWAY101:
You attacked my region in the 60s and suffered for it, have not seen anyone from SW asking you not to go. We have been screaming it to your ears daily to go away, you hate us and we hate you so much. Yorubas are not holding you yiibos from going, return to your cursed region and declare your biafra instead of making noise online. Whats hard in declaring your biafra instead of throwing insult online? Na wao

Shutup your smelly mouth, what have you achieved in your own miserable life? Running after molue in traffic selling pirated cd is your own achievement in life. Go find a job and stop disgracing your family online, many of you are in Ibadan, Ijebu and many SW land. Go back to your cursed region to clamour your biafra instead of splashing smelly spit everywhere.

Caseless:
the way you guys paint this biafran picture , it appear too rosy. From okigwe to aba, the pictures around there shows a dead imaginary country called biafra.

Moronic oaf, yet your cursed people cant stop trooping to the SW daily. You cant make it until you go to there land. You have no shame at all, with all your chest beating you are still on a forum owned by people you hate. Shame on your father.

That was long before this zoo came into existence...
He prolly would have made history as the first drug baron if he were born in the zoo era.

Oh dear.... look at the rantings of a deluded toddler, that has been brainwashed by propaganda and hate!

laudate:
Didn't I call you a kid the last time?? I take it back. You are actually a toddler. May the same vindictive, venomous words be used to describe your biafra. Abeg, swerve!

laudate:
I have told you before... you are nothing, but a kid. A badly schooled one at that.

You have never seen violent riots before in your life. And you have never met those who had to deal with the pain, losses and aftermath of a war.

Otherwise, you would have recognised from Nnamdi Kanu's inciting statements, that such hate speeches fuel conflict between tribes, ethnic groups and communities. And by the time such conflicts escalate into conflagrations, the likes of Nnamdi Kanu would be nowhere to be found. It is so sad that people cannot learn from the lessons of the past.

The day you become a victim of a mindless violent riot, not to talk of a conflict, your thinking pattern would be reset.

Please do your research before coming here to recycle empty statements. You can have your Biafra. What does not make sense is why numbskulls like Kanu think they must denigrate and vilify Nigeria, in order to have their Biafra. Nations are not borne through hate speeches on the internet. So kindly think deeply before you insultingly call others 'slaves', and kindly get a life !
