Is it by force to be a part of your tribe? You can't tell the people of Delta Igbo their origin. You weren't even born when we began to believe that we arent the same kind of people.
We are not as money conscious as your tribe,
we are not egalitarian, we have Kings (obis),
we are communal not individualistic as you guys are.
We are a tribe at crossroads between the Igbo and Edo. We are a mix of people not just igbo. Our dialect proves this, our customs proves it, so also our mentality.
So get lost with your "by force" igbo identity.

You ignorant twerp are the loser who should get lost!!!

Stop "attaching by force" to the great igbos and form your own language!!!

You claim you are a "mix of people", how come chukwuma "kaduna" nzeogwu had no edo name in his own "mix" of names?!!!

If he had borne osanobwa "kaduna" idahosa, we the great igbos, would have been spared the progroms that wasted tens of thousands of our innocent lives before the war!!!

Now, you coward and your likes feel you all can spit on the graves of the fallen great igbos by claiming that we are "forcing igbo identity" upon you confused beings?!!!

Almighty Elohim will deal you guys severely if you don't remove every trace of igbo from your language, names, culture and tradition etc!!! Your evil devices of bringing problems to we, the great igbos, will no longer go unpunished!!!

Dude. My great granddad died in that massacre. You think I didn't go through the history books before concluding about the Igbos?

Shortly before the Asaba massacre, Biafran soldiers retreated from their Asaba base when they learnt the Nigerian soldiers where approaching... They burnt (or blew up) the Bridge linking two cities thus trapping civilians. Some stories had it that they didn't even let Asaba people know.... Is that how you treat a so-called ally?

Nigeria and Biafra didn't do Asaba, Delta and the Niger Delta region any good. Both wanted their resources and nothing more but as they say, the devil you know...

Just hearing it from now...never heard of such

This ur accusation is very grave and damaging

Hope ur allegation is nothing but the truth!

OGA STOP TYPING GIBBERISH

On 29 July 1967, Nzeogwu - who had been promoted to the rank of a Biafran Lt. Colonel - was trapped in an ambush near Nsukka while conducting a night reconnaissance operation against federal troops of the 21st battalion under Captain Mohammed Inuwa Wushishi.
He was killed by recruits before his corpse was subsequently identified.

Nzeugwu’s intelligence is only when planning to kill unsuspecting civilians and women in their bedrooms. He was no better than any armed robber. When a real war came up he couldn’t even last one week in actual combat. The recruits killed the confused cowardly “officer”.

I hope you know when Israel got their own country, Jews were expelled from the entirety of the Arab world. A similar situation would see millions of Igbo trying to make a living in the five landlocked states of Abia, Anambra, Imo, Enugu and Ebonyi, an area less than the size of Niger state. I would like to see how you guys manage the over-population and find jobs for those who would have to abandon the livelihood they have built in Nigeria. A landlocked state that is not at peace with its neighbours would be a pathetic failure.

The Eastern Igbos are the last people who should be advocating for a breakaway state.
Okay we agree with your propaganda and scare crow tactics, just tell your political elites to please allow Igbos to peacefully secede, then 10 years later, you can come back and check statistics cool

Nobody killed him, he more like committed suicide and took many Nigerian troops' lives with him, and his body was flown back to Kaduna and buried with full military rights.

We are not as money conscious as your tribe,
we are not egalitarian, we have Kings (obis),
we are communal not individualistic as you guys are.
We are a tribe at crossroads between the Igbo and Edo. We are a mix of people not just igbo. Our dialect proves this, our customs proves it, so also our mentality.
So get lost with your "by force" igbo identity.
Are you aware that it was a man from your so-called "Delta Igbo" or "Anioma" and his co that plotted the coup that led to the 1966 Northern pogrom that led to the death of thousands of Igbos in the north just because he was bearing an Igbo name And even Nzeogwu who is more Deltan than you called himself an Igbo man.

Igbos in today Southeast had no reason to carry out any coup in 1966 because they were in control of Nigeria; politically, economically, militarily.....Igbo man was the President, Igbo man was the Senate President, Igbo man was the Chief of Army Staff, Igbo man was the richest man together with Dantata, Igbos dominated trade and commerce even in Northern Nigeria then, so Igbos in Southeast had no reason to carry out a coup.


Igbos only fought war to defend their people amidst the 1966 pogrom that saw rampant massacre of Igbos controlling Northern Nigeria....which pushed Ojukwu to declare Eastern Nigeria that he was governing an independent state just to secure Eastern Nigeria from the pogrom.

So don't listen to anybody telling you that Ojukwu or Igbos wanted to secede from Nigeria because of crude oil because Igbos were in control of Nigeria before Nzeogwu and co carried out the first coup and mind you, if Igbos had wanted secession, Ojukwu and Aguiyi Ironsi stopped Major Jasper Adaka Boro from today Rivers State from leading Niger Delta to secede from Nigeria.

Biafra secession was never a planned incident, it was done under duress to secure Igbos and Eastern Nigeria from Hausa-Fulani+Middlebelt massacre that followed after Nzeogwu coup + counter coup of 1966.


So blame your brothers, the crime of the Igbos in Southeast is defending Nzeogwu and Ifeajuna coupists.....if they had denied them like you so called Delta Igbos abi Anioma or Ikwerre deny Igbos today, believe me, Hausa-Fulanis+Middlebelt would have wiped you guys out of Nigeria, so still thank God for Igbos in Southeast.

If Aguiyi Ironsi had executed Nzeogwu and co, Igbos would have retained their control of Nigeria but Igbos in their usual "nwannem" attitude spared Nzeogwu and co which angered the north to plot a counter coup followed by pogrom against Igbos living in the north. cry

I read another of your kind twisting history of how Biafran troops abandoned Asaba and destroyed Onitsha bridge that made federal troops to massacre Asaba people.

See, its not good to tell lies....remember, Nzeogwu and other Asaba indigenes who were soldiers under Nigeria were commanders in Biafran side....Asaba people refused to join Biafra to fight....they stayed neutral....some even sabotaged Biafra by leaking info to Nigerian federal troops in Benin then.....they were forewarned that Biafran troops were withdrawing back to Onitsha after Biafra lost Ore-Benin side to Nigerian federal troops.....but they refused to listen but were busy learning new traditional and cultural dance they said they would use to welcome Nigerian federal troops and to show their solidarity to Nigeria against Biafra they refused to join...


...and Biafran troops placed Ojukwu bucket bombs, "Ogbuna-Igwe" at Niger bridge knowing federal troops must cross the river to enter Eastern Nigeria, then Biafran side....so they laid ambush for Nigerian troops at Niger bridge which they succeeded in killing hundreds and thousands of them at that bridge.

And even if you guys like kill yourself and rename yourself, Hausa-Fulanis see you all as Igbo and if they want to kill or fight Igbos, they will first kill you guys standing idly in confusion of where you belong that's the bitter truth!

So Biafran troops withdrawing from Asaba was military strategy to sustain the war not to punish Asaba people who refused to join Biafra...and even when they were told Biafran troops were withdrawing back to Onitsha, majority of them refused to flee to Onitsha side but said they would use cultural dance and traditional welcome to welcome Nigerian troops and make them understand that they are not with Biafra, that they believe in "One Nigeria", but it backfired!!! They were massacred by Nigerian troops!



The few Asaba people that flee to Onitsha and Biafran side were spared.....but they were very few.


Stop twisting history pls....and no matter what and how you guys deny we Igbos in Southeast, we still see you guys as our brothers.....and to tell you its not about crude oil do you guys at Asaba or Okpanam or Agbor, etc have crude oil NO!!

It hurts a lot.....the soldiers that plotted and carried out the 1966 coup that made Igbos lost federal power and even led to the killing of thousands of Igbos in the 1966 northern pogrom were from Delta state whom we see as our Igbo brothers without discrimination, and even when Nzeogwu and co carried out the coup, Igbos in the Southeast defended them, stood behind them which was the reason Hausa-Fulanis and Middlebelt hated Igbos and came all out for Igbos, yet Igbos in the Southeast never denied Igbos in Delta, Rivers, etc....but our so-called Igbo brothers in Delta, etc denied us and refused to join force with Biafra and finish the fire they ignited, they rather chose to be "One Nigeria" while denying Biafra, how wicked can that be

For every human atrocity and betrayal to fellow human in this life, there is always a price to pay.....if they had stood solidly with Igbos in Southeast to fight for Biafra with all their heart and strength, there was no way Nigerian troops could have succeeded in perpetrating those carnages in Asaba, but because they denied Biafra, refused to join Biafran troops, Biafra withdrew their own defense from their region when Ore-Benin fell to Federal troops, so they used the opportunity to finish Asaba men.


In life, it is better to die like a warrior in war than to die like a coward without putting up a single fight. Asaba people bleeped up by not joining Biafra to fight even after their sons ignited the fire which Igbos took upon themselves.


I noticed the major problem Igbos in Southeast have since the 1960s is their hatred for injustice and persecution of others and their trying to defend the oppressed....this can be seen even today, its mostly Igbos that speak up against injustice in Nigeria....its Igbos that's supporting Southern Cameroonians for years against the maltreatment from Northern Cameroon controlling power....it is Igbos that attack Hausa-Fulanis for killing Middlebelt people and reason Fulanis hate Igbos.


So my dear sister, ezigbo adanne oma, you are sound and well informed and I am so proud of you!


Well done

If igbos must survive in this Nigeria, they need to start doing what everyone else has been doing. They need to start watching out for igbo interest only. Other tribes only use us to fight for them when they have no where else to turn to but are quick to detach from us and call us all kinds of Abusive names once they get what they want.

Also it’s time for REAL igbos to disassociate from any group of igbos that is suffering from identity crisis. If not we will continue paying the price of what members of those groups do. Can you believe that Nzeogwu’s people don’t even see themselves as igbos but igbos died for what their son did.


If this current igbo generation doesn’t learn. They will end up exactly like the previous generation

No real difference in the story, the megalomaniac had no intelligence in actual combat. The hero of that story is General Gowon who magnanimously ordered for Military Officer’s burial because at those early stages ( police action) he ( Gowon) was hoping that the Biafrans would see reason and call off the secession. Gowon considered all Biafran Officer such as Nigerian Officers - misguided.

If you can be honest for once, you can tell how much Igbos hate Rochas, Kalu (OUK), Una, Ohakim, Theodore Orji and co. Check the Igbo politicians Igbos cherish and support, they are exemplary even in global politics.

But the issue is under Nigerian constitution drafted by corrupt Hausa-Fulani military dictators and backed by corrupt Yoruba elites, there is nothing much Igbos can do to the corrupt Igbo politicians in southeast because Nigerian system shield powerful corrupt people.

Take a look at Imo state now, Imo people hate Hope Uzodimma not from last year but decade ago because he is a dubious 419ner suspected to also have hand in money rituals and reason Imo people have not been voting him massively for so many years he has been contesting for Governorship position, not until recently that Hausa-Fulani + Yoruba corrupt Supreme Court decided to foist him on IMO people against their wish!

This is why Igbos are asking for Biafra, so our finest brains from all over the world can contribute to ideas to make excellent constitution that does not support or condone leadership corruption, and so that we Igbos can deal with our bad eggs by ourselves using our own unique constitution and laws, that's why we want Biafra. we want to be solely in charge of our security and our destiny so that if we fail we know we failed ourselves and if we succeed we know we succeeded, not strangers and enemies deciding our fate and future like it is now.


Remember, all humans are selfish and corrupt, all they need is the enabling environment to practice their corruption.

Take a look at Israeli Prime Minister Nethanyahu, he is facing corruption allegation of diverting money meant for public, a former Israeli President was removed for rape...so when Israel was seeking for independence, it does not mean Israel does not have corrupt and bad citizens among them, they are in all tribes, races and religion but it is institutions that control and curtail human excesses, and such institutions, Hausa-Fulanis don't want them established in Nigeria and reason Igbos really need to be free from Nigeria.

Very true brother.

But you know it is difficult to change your natural trait.

Igbos are born with this natural trait of looking out for their brother no matter what.

Another tribe that have that trait of defending their brothers wherever they are is the Fulanis
