sharap joor,u think we are happy with all the nuisance u constitude to our enviroment in the name trading.gala seller,faka cd,fake motor spare part and selling goods on pavement are all these, what we can do about? if u ibos leave nigeria today, no body will ever mis u.

susanokopi:
Did the UN break up those countries? These were countries in their own right that formed a union just like Scotland with England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Ibo was never a country nor was it in any confederation with Nigeria. On the contrary, ibos occupy a tiny hinterland of Nigeria and is surrounded on all sides by Nigeria. Ibos don't have boundary with any country. You want Nigeria to form a country from inside itself? You must be the most irrelevant biafran dog at heel!

susanokopi:

Like Ojukwu, you shall continue this endless bragging rather than actually starting your war. Cowards, they say, die many times before their death! Is that why you are putting off the actual war and opting for this poor internet substitute? It is only a dead and putrefying biafra, vulture!

bashirolu:

Your ignorance is beyond redemption! Iraq was about weapons of mass destruction but not to divide the country! Afghanistan was a US and NATO war, not UN. Libya was not about dividing it but protecting civilian population through a 'no fly zone' which the US and NATO used to topple Gaddafi without UN backing. The UN has not created any independent country inside any of these countries and it does not have mandate to do so! Grow up, old ibo boy!

eneidoko:

Is Nigeria the only multi-ethnic country or is ibo the only tribe in Nigeria? Who told you that the ibos were held at gun point to agree to be in an Independent Nigeria? A country is not a club you form and break up at will.

You are a sour grape because you have marginalized yourselves through inordinate ambition of ojukwu and Biafra! You are delirious if you think your Biafra will ever exist inside Nigeria, nut-case!

susanokopi:

The shame is on you who do not know but presume to know. You now have your Shekau in the form of Kanu. Start the fire and see the armada of new weapons that we will test on igbos; you will wish you were not born igbo!

eneidoko:
A cardinal principle of UN is non-interference in members' internal affairs to which Nigeria is a signatory. The principle you referred to relates to a country under colonial rule, which Nigeria is not.

UN has no jurisdiction to entertain any motion on biafran independence except to call a halt to genocide or ethnic cleansing!
The UN had no mandate to divide any independent country or create another independent country inside another country, you ignoramus!

Nigeria will not be foolish to create a biafran country inside Nigeria. It is not done, imp! Biafra is a hopeless case condemned to the graveyard of history, but if it makes you happy to romanticize with this putrid idea, dream on!

otr1:
You can't can't insult and threat people unprovoked then expect them to support you. Such a warped logic. Continue with the insults and threats if you think that will help you. As for me- and other Nigerians would agree with me- it only strengthen our resolve to ensure your Biafra remains on Radio forever.

susanokopi:
Ojukwu the world champion of cowards boasted before the war that Nigeria will be decimated in no time, which proved to be a mad bragging just like you are doing on NL. The blockade of Nigerian territorial waters was done by Nigerian Navy and not British warship, you liar!

Ojukwu was a fraud on Igbos like Kanu rather than substance. A true leader fights and dies with his people but not ojukwu who fled when faced with Nigerian power!

Nigeria took care not to mount all-out genocide against ibo civilians, which prolonged the war and saved millions of ibos. Otherwise Igbos would have been reduced to one local government in terms of population as opposed to the millions that survived the war.

Your argument that Nigeria should not buy weapons to defend herself or prosecute a war against any enemies, including Igbos is pure lunatic fallacy. Saudi Arabia, Israel, India and even China buy arms for their individual national defence.

In any war that Igbos foolishly start, the entire Igbo land will be the war-front. Igbo civilians and properties will bear death and destruction as collateral damage.

Every superpower and other military powers will be too eager to sell their latest weapons to Nigeria to try them on Igbos, which will end the war in just 3 months or less and the possibility that Igbos will be reduced to just one local government in Nigeria.

So far, people shouting biafra do not represent the Ibos. Carry your Governors, Senators and Reps along, then we'll take you serious.
And stop insulting other Nigerians and Nigeria or your Biafra will forever remain on Radio. But if you think you can achieve your aim by insulting and threatening us, sorry is your name.

otr1:
Goodluck to you, but sorry Kanu is leading you no where.
If you haven't realized that you can't never get the UN backing with this Kanu guy, then goodluck to you on your futile endeavour

olasmith10:
why commence a war you ultimately know you cannot win.

otr1:
How the UN will back a referendum in Nigeria without the consent of Nigeria is what I want you to tell me. Go check what referendum means.

otr1:
Then let the UN give them the referendum... Let me see how that will happen without the approval of Nigeria.

otr1:
No one has requested for referendum to be carried out. The noise on Radio Biafra is just a ranting of a deranged fellow.
Tell me how 35 million Ibos will defeat 120 Nigerians in a war and I'll tell you why Boko Haram insurgents are different from civil war mongers.
I hope you've been to the NE lately?
SE will come out worse just after 3 months of engagement. Just continue.

otr1:
How some of you think you people can win Nigeria in a war beats my imagination. What exactly do you smoke?
You'll use guerilla tactics in a conventional war and there will be no frontline right? Ok, just declare the war as soon as you can. But have it in mind that there will be a winner and a loser this time around. And we don't want to hear cries of genocide and starvation after the war.

Austin4lif:
I am pro-biafra but I will not join this suicide mission. Nnmadi kalu stop exposing this boys to suicide mission. Give them what it takes to defend themselves.

amakasul:

I am not surprised because you are following in the footsteps of that other big bragging coward called Ojukwu.
Who didn't know that France was supplying biafra weapons and mercenaries?
ND militants hid among civilians and when OBJ ordered the army to flush them, everybody down south was crying 'genocide, genocide'!!
Which front-line did the militants win a war against the Nigerian Army?
Boko haram is not a conventional warfare but guerilla war, which even the USA, a superpower has been fighting over 13 years without victory.
You are just a braggart and if the Ibos try any rebellion this time around, not one of you traitors will be spared but totally annihilated.

wirinet:
But tell me why are Igbos obsessed with power, especially the presidency? When an Igbo man supported by Igbo becomes leader, everything is ok, but when the igbos lose power, the succession is the answer.

The whole 28 million Ghanians are not one tribe. Ghana too has numerous tribes just like Nigeria and you do not hear shouts of succession when one tribe loses power.

Very few countries on this planet contain only one tribe, most countries in the world are multi-ethnic and multi religious and they learn to co exist with each other.

GEJ lost because lots of people including some of his people believed he failed and lost the confidence of the political class. It has nothing to do with hatred for Igbos or minorities. After all he was supported in his first election. If igbos want to contest and win the presidency, they would need to build alliances with others and stop insulting all other tribes that do not support them.

wexyee:
lol. 40 million? U re not more than 20 miLlion

QuotaSystem:
You are not sovereign. Nigeria is. Also keep in mind the Igbos don't have the luxury of just deciding they don't want to be part of Nigeria whether by secession or militarily, that decision rests with Nigeria and her commander-in-chief.

You keep avoiding this question;

You said you hate to elect your leader through other tribes, why do you not mind electing your leader through Niger deltans?

QuotaSystem:
There's no political 'machination' in place, just political strategy and sophistry. Ibos are politically immature because of their counter-productive republican nature, which means you cannot stoop to conquer and you will always have the short end of the stick. As for Biafra, let me tell you here that you also need alliances to make it work otherwise you will continue to be the nation's laughing stock.

The N Deltans are also not fooled by your candy covered story. You said you hate to elect your leader through other tribes, why do you not mind electing your leader through Niger deltans?

jarkbauer:
Nigeria is not the only multiple ethnic country. Almost all countries in sub Saharan Africa are. Congo has over 500 Ethnic groups. Even America is a multi cultural society. Obama won last election by wooing blacks and Hispanics. So my dear learn how to form alliances.
By the way if I may ask, if you dont need to be in same country with Yorubas and Hausas why do you need their money?
Igbos are scattered all over Nigeria doing one business or the other in Hausa and Yoruba lands collecting their Naira.why?

QuotaSystem:
[b]Even the same Ghana is made up of separate tribes e.g Ashanti and they also must make alliances with others to elect their President.

The truth is that the much touted and counter-productive republican nature of Ibos generally makes it hard for them to stoop to conquer and make concessions, which is why you think it's a death sentence to 'go through a Hausa or Yoruba man' to elect a President; something the other over 250 tribes do easily without feeling inferior. The Ibo politics of hate doesn't help either.

It is silly to expect you must have a country with just one ethnic identity before you can happily elect a President.

This also exposes the Biafran agenda for SS minorities if they agree to join them, because if you do not want to go through a Yoruba or Hausa man to become President, why don't you mind going through an Efik or Ijaw man? Because you would have dominated them?

Why do you also think an Ijaw man would want to go through an Ibo man to elect his President if you don't want the same for yourself?[/b]

kuuljay:
does your comment mean the ibibios ijaws itsekiris should not think of joining your biafra? cos they will never be president of Biafra as the minority tribes? shallow thinking

jarkbauer:
Election they say is a game of numbers. Alliances are needed to win any election in Nigeria. It is nobody's birthright to be voted any person or group. SW,NW,NC,NE, decided to vote for Buhari while SE and SS devided to vote for Jonathan, all these based on personal convictions.
While everybody seemed to have moved on, the Igbos are still angry with everybody that decided not to vote for Jonathan. Can somebody explain why?

stevecantrell:
LoL ! You didn't remember it was illegal entity while GEJ was in Aso Rock.
