As long as you ibos know that the story of the people of Nigeria didn't start after its amalgamation!
You people should respect other people tribes! Shikena!

Have you always been your brothers-keeper or is
this a sudden self-centered desperation in order to
gain the support of the South Easterners in your
pursuit of Anioma State creation?
I think with this, your extreme question that
boarders on self assessment, it is pertinent at this
point to look back and critically outline the roles of
the Delta Igbo’s during the most critical period in
the life and history of our brothers across the
Niger.
A significant officers and men of Midwestern
origin-Delta-Igbos fought on the side of the
Biafran Army. Col. Mike Ndukwe Okweuechime, to
start with was the Chief of Linguistics, Defence
headquarters, Biafran Army till the end of the civil
war on January 12, 1970. Navy Commander Frank
Anukwu from Ika was in charge of Biafran Navy till
the end of the war. Brigadier Nwawo from Aniocha
North was General Officer who commanded 4
Command (Special) Division of Biafran Army. Col.
Joe Achuzie from Oshimili South was General
Officer Commanding (GOC) 16 division.
Late Col. B.S.A. Nwajei from Oshimili North was at
a time, the Commander 14 division. Col. Ochei
from Oshimili South was Commandant of School
of Infantry Biafran Army. Col. Morah and Col.
Henry Igboba from Aniocha North and Oshimili
North, respectively fought gallantly for the
survicval of Igbo people during the war. Late Major
Albert Okonkwo from Oshimili North was the
Administrator of the defunct Republic of Biafra Mr.
George Nwanze from Oshimili North was the
secretary to Odumegwu Ojukwu, Head of State
defunct Republic of Biafra, to mention but a few. It
is important to mention that the above top military
Officers and highly respected men of substance
from the then Midwestern region, did not fight as
mercenaries. I want to state that as a matter of
historical fact, I too fought gallantly on the side of
Biafra. In fact, I came back from my studies in
oversea and was confronted with the war, as Igbo
people were been slaughtered all across the North,
we had to ran from Jos to Ibusa where I joined
Force with the Biafran Army.

DiademSh07:

Like I said earlier, you ibo can take with you the Enuani people of Anioma if these people wants to secede with you because we all know that they descended from the ibos!
And don't forget, Enuani tribe includes the Aniocha/Oshmili people, Ibusa e.t.c. However, stop forcing your fraud ideologies on the ukwuanis and the ikas!

pazienza:

Lol! Did you even read my bolded post?

" And in 1939, the Obi of Agbor,
Obi of Idumuje-Ugboko and the Obi of
Aboh, for themselves and the entire
Western Igbo people, petitioned there
Colonial Administration for carving out the
Western Igbos from their Kits and Kins
East of the Niger. Consequently, in 1956,
Western Igbo leaders organized the AMA1
conferences where it was resolved that
the answer to the political problems of
the
Western Igbos was to create a West Niger
Igbo State with the Headquarters at
ALIDINMA. The agitation for the creation
of the West Niger Igbo State assumed the
name ANIOMA after the civil war".

pazienza:
To make it easier for you. Agbor is the centre of Ika civilization, Idumueje- Ugboko is an Ika town, while Aboh is the centre of Ukwuani civilization.

Now do you understand, or do you need more simplification?

DiademSh07:

Ibos rewriting history since 1900.
You mean Delta state that were part of the old western region before their seperation into mid-west region was part of the eastern region?
Ibos, bunch of liars!

millionaireman:
From his/her comments, this superstar1 doesn't even know where Niger delta region begins and ends. He doesn't know that Imo, Abia and possibly Anambra, states are parts of the Niger delta region.

But why does an average Yoruba have fever over the possibility of new Biafra?

When the 12 states in far Arewa unconstitutionally adopted sharia criminal codes, their political leaders literally drew the border lines of a possible new country in the north, and dared rest of Nigeria for any counter stance. They drew a borderline nearly similar to that which Middle belt's late Gideon Orkar drew a few years ago.

Religion is opium for the mssses who are ready to give up anything to worship their gods the way it pleases them. The masses in the 12 northern Nigeria sharia states celebrated the adoption of sharia criminal justice system. Methinks, people of the12 sharia states shall not grudge if they find themselves in a new country where they can worship their Allah without any interference by a secular constitution of a multi-religious Nigeria; though their political class that is used to free money from oil revenues may grumble at the beginning.

When will the SW start to promptly read developments as they emerge in Nigeria?

If SW had declared Oduduwa Republic in 1966, SW must have gotten far developed than what it is today. Instead, the average Yoruba today looks at the red light districts of urban Lagos, compare Lagos urbanization with the lower urban status of the most developed city in the SE, and begins to thumb the chest and feel contented with Nigeria; but hardly looks beyond Lagos to observe the squalid 19th century standards of development prevalent in most of Yoruba land.

If the Yoruba can outgrow diffiidence and realize that an Oduduwa country can prosper faster without being in one Nigeria, than in one Nigeria, Yoruba shall stop developing goose pimples anytime discourse about realization of new Biafra is on the table.

You are still not making use of your comprehension skills.

Nigeria was divided into three regions in 1939 by Bernard Burdillion, the region were : The Northern region, The Eastern region and The western region.

Before then, we had just two protectorates of South and North.

Bernard Burdillion division of the country into three regions, divided Igboland into two, while the majority were in the East, the rest were in the west.

The Agbor, Idumeje-ugboko and Aboh kings were not happy that the western Igboland were separated from the Eastern half, so they petitioned the colonial government against the move to separate the western Igbos from their kin and kiths who were now called Easterners.

Do you comprehend now?

The guy is not Anioma, talkless of Ika. He's f2king Yoruba, admitted it to. He's trying the divide and conquer thing and failing woefully at it.
The hilarious thing about it, no delta igbo was excited about being pushed in western Nigeria. We alomg with the benin kings championed for seperation of midwesr to west. Till date, excluding maybe edo state, nonr of us want to return back to Western Nigeria. Even during biafra war, the ppl that represented delta igbo the most in the biafran army were ika. There were more of them in that military than others, albeit there were more them that nigerian army than others as well (although the percentage is smaller compared to the ones in biafran army). They pretty much represented delta igbo in both side.

Which Delta Igbos were part of Western region?

Which King of Benin did you guys collude with? Bring facts and not sentiments bruh..

Azikiwe and Bello planned the breaking of the western regions while they are lording over minorities in their regions.. Yeah!!! It was really about minorities. It was all about breaking the western region. No genuine concern for the minorities. Lies!

Concern for minorities but they had to send Awolowo to jail to achieve this? Please please it was about breaking the influence of Awolowo simple!! Stop lying!! Stop lying!! Stop Lying!!

But the journey to August 9, 1963 was not an easy one. We. Midwesterners, must remain eternally grateful to those who fought for the creation of the state. Prominent among those was the Oba of Benin, Akenzua II, without whose personal intervention and guidance the state may not have been created in 1963. The others whose names must be recognized were Dennis Osadebay, Jereton Marierie, and James Otobo . It is instructive to note that Otobo was the only prominent member of the Action Group (AG) from the region who fought publicly for the creation of the Midwest State. As we celebrate the 33rd anniversary of the Midwest State, I am sad to declare that we have not done anything to immortalize the lives of those four freedom fighters.

Where did the Igbos now connive with Oba Akenzua there? Where? Lies!!

Forget your revisionist history by attaché bros...

Nigeria is greater than one tribe even my dear Yoruba!

Yhe Igbos have more in common with tribes in Cameroon and Gambia than they do with most Southern tribes even the ibibios. Let it go!! Your fears are unfounded and just a tool for courting pity simple!

0lumide:


And I'm still asking, where were Igbos mentioned there as part of Western tribes? We saw Urhobo, Ijaws, where was Igbos there?

And the Yorubas in Edo State nko? Are they not part of the Midwestern? Or were they? I'm asking genuinely here. Were the Yorubas in Edo State part of it?

pazienza:


Was Awo not found guilty of treason and corrupt practices by a court of justice?

Was Zik Tafawa Balewa that sought to punish Awo for trying to usurp his government? Was Zik the Yoruba judge that presided over the case?

I have noticed this tendency of Yorubas not to challenge the North, even when they are at the receiving end of the North wrath, they find a way to absolve the North of all blames and miraculously find a way to place it on the Igbo.

The North wanted Awo imprisoned in the North, Zik was able to negotiate his imprisonment in the East, fearing he(Awo) might get killed in the north. This is my understanding of the story.

Akintola became the New darling of the North, he was more subservient than Awo, Awo had to be eliminated to make room for Akintola. How exactly was any of that Zik's fault?

TRUTHTOPOWER:


Any intellectual prowess that stereotypes any culture must be called into question. At least liberal education of the Western world rejects all forms of stereotypes. All international treaties reject ethnic profiling. so what is the universal basis of your ethnic profiling. Indeed, half the wrong conclusions that human beings arrive at are by abuse of metaphors, by taking general resemblance for real identity. Google the American declaration of independence and the logical end of the war as well as the struggle for the soul of the united states. In Nigeria, what do we see, a people who work at cross-purposes. What were the genuine efforts made since 2010 by our leaders to address the foundational inequality you speak of? 12million naira for each delegate after 5 years to discuss what? How much were Biafran soldiers or Nigerian soldiers paid to defend what they believe? How much are we paying soldiers in the frontiers of insurgency today? How much are we owing aged pensioners who served this country with all their lives? Why you are doing this some apprentices are roaming the street because of lack of money to settle them! It is nobody's fault. I guess we must not begrudge those who have access to the common purse. Struggle and become rich or die trying! We all have different ways of reacting to things like this.

Citizens of developing countries will dare to hold their leaders accountable. but some citizens of backward countries will simply agitate for their own share of what the leaders have been accused of. AS IT WAS IN THE BEGINNING, SO SHALL IT BE, THE WORLD WITHOUT END! More people protested in the south east to maintain the status quo of governance rather than a fundamental change. Look at all the protests what were they for. Not APC change. So for whom are you speaking? for millions of Igbos who have established legitimate businesses outside Igboland. If Nigeria is evil and potentially dangerous as you suggest how do you reconcile your suggestion with the legitimate acts of your brothers that clearly suggest that we all belong to human race, that we all have right to do as we please (under the law) wherever we live?

As a Westerner, I have unhindered access to the sea and a vast erosion free land. we have in commercial quantity what we need to sell to the world by air or by sea. But we need Nigeria no less than others because the more the merrier. Because all we need to be strong is a Nigeria that is free of prejudice. We have our weaknesses and we acknowledge that no race is morally stronger than the other. We don't create classes of the Freeborn and the outcasts. Nor do we subject any class to customs that shock the conscience of the free world. I refer you to the book 'a grammar of politics' by Harold laski on the what causes national hate. It is ignorance. He said we can overcome hatred through education. According to him, we overcome hate by love evil by Good and that baseness begets only a progeny like into itself. That the glamour of war is as unreal as the bought affection of a prostitute. Laski was a prof at the London school of economics and political science.

if we must live together we must learn to be tolerant. the elections are over. if we cannot live together, it is simply intellectually barren to insult others who are oppose to your idea. all you have to do is tell people who believe in your cause to go back to the base and remain there. tell them it is better for all igbos to remain in the east and have nothing to do with Nigeria or Nigerians. make intellectual argument to the UN to justify separation. they will intellectually respond to you. But remember, do not lay claim to any land outside the five eastern states unless the tribes in the contiguous states unanimoulsy decide to join you. If you cannot intellectually, achieve this simply embrace constructive peace.

I guess this ediot is not aware Dennis Osadebay, a man that fought alongside Oba Akenzua and one of the biggest advocate for mid west creation alongside Obas is Anioma.

Like I told your useless brothers I don't waste my precious times with Yoruba that does not know the history of others but always Loud mouthing like they know everything yet displaying constant cluelessness. Go read up on the two articles I gave you and read How every community in delta/edo from Anioma down to Benin advocated and fought for mid west creation with the named leaders being the head on this avocation. Equally read and learn why those leaders fought hard to get us out of western Nigeria. Take your propaganda story somewhere else

As I said before and I'll say it again. Una propaganda does not work on me. I know my history. My family made sure of that. Try someone else willingly to listen to yoruba usual propaganda.

Just say, majority were aniocha/Oshimili.
Only Anuku was an Ika guy among the biafrans. And that's inconsequential because there were also 1-2 yorubas (Banjo & Ademulegun?) among the biafrans.
Ibos and lies, very synonymous!
The part underlined is hilarious! I school in Benin and believe me, no delta person calls himself/herself delta igbo! If at all, they want to have any connection with the word igbo, they call themselves delta ibo.
Do you know what the word 'igbo' means in ukwuani? It means slaves!
That's why I don't even believe you a deltan to begin with!
Bunch of wanderers!

I am Ukwuani. Since when did "Igbo" mean slave in Ukwuani?? You better stop reading nonsense on the internet and just go to Ukwuani land and learn. You can say non-Igbos used that word "Igbo" for slave in their language,but definitely not in ukwuani. Ukwuani to begin with, was never ONE clan. It was a fragmented area consisting of individual village groups just like other Igbo areas. Ukwuani is a recent name just like Enuani. "Uku/ukwuani means The foot/lower end of the land, "Enuani" means The top of the land. So if you want to take it down the route you are going then we "ukwuani" are not the same.
