The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has declared that no part of the defunct Biafra Republic would be left behind in its quest for self determination.

In a statement issued by Barrister Emma Nmezu and Dr. Clifford Chukwuemeka Iroanya, spokespersons of the IPOB‎, they maintained that both the South-South and the Middle Belt were still part of the Biafra territory and would not be allowed to remain as slaves in Nigeria.

The group equally hailed President Muhammdu Buhari who had told Niger Delta leaders that “If anybody has a country to go to, let him go, we will stay here and salvage our country‎.”
The IPOB said with such statement, President Buhari had accepted the fact that it was time for Biafra to go.

‎The statement read: “We at IPOB are delighted with the comments attributed to President Muhamadu Buhari, who seems to have bowed to international pressure to consider the inevitable disintegration of Nigeria, though with conditions we find inconsistent with common sense and logic.

“According to Buhari, ‘any Nigerian is free to leave the country if they have another one. Buhari also stated that ‘If anybody has a country to go to, let him go, we will stay here and salvage our country.’ It is crystal clear that Buhari has seen the futility of fighting against a determined people, who are bent on restoring their God given nation, which was unjustly robbed them by slave merchants, later turned colonialists.

“From all indications, Buhari must have consulted with his colonial backers and religious handlers, who perhaps have taken the time to school him on the sanctity of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People (UNDRIP), the inviolability and irreducibility of the rights of Indigenous People to self-determination.
“However, we observed that hidden in the statements of Buhari are two evil agendas. First evil agenda is that Buhari made this statement in a meeting he had with Biafrans from the riverine or southern part of Biafra which the Hausa-Fulani oligarchy nicknamed South-South or Niger-Delta.

“The underlying objective in Buhari’s statement is to create the impression that the so-called South-South is not part of Biafraland, hence the upland areas of Biafra (Igbo) can leave Nigeria while the riverine areas (Ibibio, Efik, Izon, Itshekiri, Urhobo, Isoko) will remain part of Nigeria.

“The plan is to trap the riverine areas of Biafraland in Nigeria to enable Buhari and his Hausa-Fulani oligarchy continue the shameless exploitation and stealing of Biafra’s natural resources which they have always used and will continue to use to develop the Arewa region of Nigeria.”

The group further stated that “The only surprise is that Buhari and his handlers did not include the rich Orient oil fields of Anambra River Basin, the high yield Shell operated Egbema oil fields in Imo State, the abundant gas reserves at Ohaji also in Imo State and the Shell operated Ukwa deep oil well in Abia State in their so-called South-South/Niger Delta.

“Successive governments of Nigeria have continued to deceive the gullible public that the reason we IPOB are agitating for Biafra is because of oil in the Niger Delta region, without making obvious the fact that oil was first found in commercial quantity in Imo State before Oloibiri in Bayelsa State.

“Sadly many people are still ignorant of the fact that active oil and gas extraction is happening today in Anambra, Imo, Abia and Igbo parts of Rivers State.

“It is pertinent we make clear to all and sundry that while oil may motivate the Arewa North to seek One Nigeria because they cannot live without it, due to their lazy parasitic nature, in Biafraland and in the new Biafra we shall place 100% emphasis on human capital development not on natural occurring minerals.

“For a country to pin the hopes of its entire economic policy and well being on a finite natural resource is indicative of the level of intellectual backwardness of the self arrogating ‘elites’ that run the economy of the colonial contraption known as Nigeria.

“We the Indigenous People of Biafra believe that the greatest natural resource a people can be endowed with is their brain not what is under the ground.

“We must stress for purposes of sound knowledge that there is no known geographical cardinal point in any geography text book or academic literature or any part of this world called ‘South-South’, except in Nigeria.

“This unique un-academic introduction of a new cardinal point called ‘South-South’ was created by the Hausa-Fulani oligarchy to serve their divide and rule interests.
With this dichotomy they intend to continue to own virtually all the oil blocks in Biafraland including those at Anambra, Imo, Abia and Igbo parts of Rivers State. But the same Hausa-Fulani natural born rulers of Nigeria refused to create corresponding cardinal points of “North-north” and “West-west.” Sensible people must ask themselves why this is the case.

“The Hausa-Fulani ruling class carefully created this unique cardinal point of “South-South” to drive an everlasting wedge between the upland and riverine areas of Biafraland.

“Furthermore, the “South-South” is not contained in any part of the Constitution of Nigeria nor is it any of the Acts of Parliament or Laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (L.F.N.).

“The second evil agenda of Buhari is that by making such statements before these respected leaders from the riverine area of Biafraland, he is creating the false impression that he has obtained the consent of the people of Southern Biafra to build the Nigeria of his dreams. Buhari in so doing is giving a misleading signal that Biafrans from the riverine areas have bought into his deceptive and foundationally disastrous “One Nigeria” project.

“By gathering a few Biafrans from the riverine areas and saying that “those who don’t want to be part of Nigeria should leave,” Buhari hopes to convince the world that those Biafrans he was addressing at Aso Rock believe in the “oneness” of the British colony Nigeria he is assiduouslly pursuing.

“We the Indigenous People of Biafra at this point would wish to categorically inform Buhari that since we already have our blessed nation Biafra created by the Most High God not man; we do not need the temporary country called Nigeria created by a white man Luggard for his amusement and economic exploitation.

“We wish to further inform Buhari that Indigenous People of Biafra do not desire to regress from the status of a nation state to that of a country artificially created by the British with divergent and irreconcilable value systems. Even today, nations that make up Britain like Scotland and Wales are agitating like Biafrans, to establish their own nation state outside Britain, so why should Nigeria that is created by a white British man be immune to similar demands being made by Biafrans?

“We were Biafrans before the British Government through the instrumentality of the Royal Niger Company forced us into this contraption christened Nigeria by Flora Shaw at the time the mistress of Frederick Luggard. Buhari professes his faith in Islam and belief that a woman’s position in society is limited to the confines of the kitchen yet his anti women rhetoric does not extend to the abolition of the name Nigeria because that name for which he has killed millions, was given by an unmarried white woman to the unfortunate people known today as Nigerians.”

“Therefore, we are very happy to hear from Buhari that he has at last come to terms with the folly of trying to continue to deploy the brutality of the Nigerian military to force we Indigenous People of Biafra to be Nigerians against our wish.

“Hence we welcome with open arms the declaration Buhari that we Biafrans are now free to leave the contraption called Nigeria and go home to rebuild our battered but blessed nation of Biafra.

“We hope that Buhari will now stop his wholesale massacre, arrest and illegal detention of peaceful and unarmed Indigenous People of Biafra and hurry to free the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and other illegally detained prisoners of conscience.

“We look forward to Buhari and his Hausa-Fulani owners of “One Nigeria” making arrangements for a bipartisan meeting of Arewa dominated Nigeria and Indigenous People of Biafra for the purpose of determining the modalities and date of a Biafrexit referendum to determine the will of the people once and for all time.

“For once, Buhari has spoken reasonably well, though his conditions of carving out of the riverine areas of Biafraland into his One Nigeria dream in the classic divide and rule mindset is not acceptable to us the Indigenous People of Biafra.

“Buhari needs to come to terms with the fact that IPOB will not leave any part of Biafraland, from the plains of Idomaland to the shorelines of Opobo Kingdom, to become a conquered territory like the Yoruba owned Illorin, which today is under Caliphate rule answerable to the Sultan of Sokoto not the Ooni of Ife.

“The restoration of the nation of Biafra is irrevocably sacrosanct and irreversible, no amount of gamesmanship on the part of Buhari and his colonial handlers can stop it.”

And why exactly would the South-South want to go along with Biafra when they actually own the oil? They have leverage and can afford to go there seperate ways instead of being second class citizens in the Republic of Biafra.

If u read my points very well...u will understand that I'm not in support of seperation but we must not call them fools becus I love their guts..the country is not working..

U and I know that Nigeria is not working and can never work wit the current structure.. Nigeria was founded in falsehood.. Lies and lies..fake map calving, fake population, fake LGA allocation, fake many things...it can't work..

My point is...those people fighting for Biafra are not stupid..they av seen that the county they were killed to join has not worked.. If the country had worked...I'm sure..none of them would av been talking now..do u get my point now? In as much as u and I may not like their agitation but we should never call them stupid becus they are wiser..they know that they are not comfortable...unlike us who know that we are not comfortable but we prefer to keep quiet.. We are not wise na!

The point is...Nigeria is divided.. U sef know.. Northerner can never unite to fight a govt wit the south.. Even in the south, some regions can't unite to fight a govt..and make I tell u the truth...a country where citizens can't unite to fight the govt can never ever work. This country is so sweet for political class.. They are the ones enjoying this structure.. The best we can do is to see reasons wit the Biafra agitators but in another dimension..we need a better structure...where u and I can unite to fight our govt..

From your comment, it still seems that you support the secession.
If 1966 coup did not happen (which unfortunately, Igbo people played a big role in) this country would not have been this divided, neither will we have this messed up system of sharing that we have today, the blame falls on Ironsi.
If not each region would have been paying 50% to the centre and the region's would have been stronger Canada style.


The root problem is still greed and corruption, and If Nigeria likes, let it split into 7, it will still be the same thing, that is what makes the agitation useless.

I am from the SE, and I will tell you without apology that we have the most wicked and selfish leaders in Nigeria, and the trick they play is to lie to the people.

You did not make any point with that comment up there...

Sharia law is at the state level, and the constitution is the highest law in the land, so that is not a point
The SE states can also make laws in their own states and that will hold.

Besides, that talk of you saying that north can never unite with the south to fight government, maybe you did not know that in 1993, nationwide, Abiola won elections over the other guy (Tofa). Infact, Abiola even won Tofa's home state of Kaduna.
So what are we saying here

Even in 2011, though Jonathan did not win the core northern States, he got Significant support there, what if Obasanjo

I'm not in support of any Biafra...but I can't call them stupid people.. Never.. They av right to want to leave Nigeria.. There was nothing like Nigeria before.. Britain created this.. It is not by force to remain there..
The worst part of creating Nigeria by Britain is even the sad reason they created it...they created it to save cost and oppress the people.. Is that not nonsense act?

I support a regional based govt and not Biafra but I can't call them stupid people ..becus if u marry and ur marriage is not working, u will think of divorce. That is the case wit Biafra agitation..

And what led to civil war was still majorly tribal saga...this tribe suspecting the other.. So...it has been wit us..it will remain wit us.

North is not better than south....south west...not better than south east...east not better than south west.. Nigeria generally is backward...u sef know.. We av enough to be great...

Lying propagandist are still going about with their silly lies and propaganda just because they are too bitter that the Igbo Nation more than ever before is ever determined to have a separate existence from greedy, treasury looters cum murderous parasites.

"Despite the fact that Nzeogwu was now technically an enemy soldier killed in combat against the Nigerian army, Gowon ordered that Nzeogwu's body should be flown to Kaduna and buried with full military honours – even as the war raged on in the Eastern Region. Even in death, Nzeogwu was still respected by federal and northern troops. Domkat Bali referred to him as: “a nice, charismatic and disciplined officer, highly admired and respected by his colleagues...
….we believed that he was a genuinely patriotic officer who organised the 1966 coup with the best of intentions who was let down by his collaborators….If we had captured him alive, he would not have been killed. I believe he probably would have been tried for his role in the January 15 coup, jailed and probably freed after some time. His death was regrettable.""


AGUIYI IRONSI DID NOT DISSOLVE THE REGIONAL GOVERNMENTS OR RESOURCE CONTROL; GOWON WITH THE COLLUSION OF AWOLOWO DID! 

Gowon created the first 12 states after the dissolution of region. Gowon did the damage by creating state to checkmate the Igbos.

However a few months afterwards, an Igboman Emeka Ojukwu spearheaded the Aburi agreement in which fiscal federalism and even confederation was adopted, but the other Nigerian, including Awolowo and Enahoro kicked against it. That is why fiscal federalism has not been experienced in this nation since then.

In 1972 Gowon with the support of Awolowo enacted and enforced the Indigenization decree which led to the collapse of the Nigerian economy.
To add insult to the festering injury Olusegun Obasanjo promulgated the Land Use Decree (now Land Use Act) in 29th of March, 1978.

By the provision of the Land Use Decree of 1978, the inhabitants of the oil producing communities were turned into squatters in their own ancestral homes, as land where oil is explored, produced, transported and stored were decreed to belong to the state long after political independence in 1960. The existence and application of the Land Use Act of 1978 contributed to the present state of neglect, under-development and the insecurity of the region.

And for the past 45 years, what have subsequent governments done to repeal the evil laws and entrench true practice of federal system of government? Absolutely nothing!

Even in death, Nzeogwu was still respected by federal and northern troops. Domkat Bali referred to him as: “a nice, charismatic and disciplined officer, highly admired and respected by his colleagues...
….we believed that he was a genuinely patriotic officer who organised the 1966 coup with the best of intentions who was let down by his collaborators….If we had captured him alive, he would not have been killed. I believe he probably would have been tried for his role in the January 15 coup, jailed and probably freed after some time. His death was regrettable.""


AGUIYI IRONSI DID NOT DISSOLVE THE REGIONAL GOVERNMENTS OR RESOURCE CONTROL; GOWON WITH THE COLLUSION OF AWOLOWO DID! 

Gowon created the first 12 states after the dissolution of region. Gowon did the damage by creating state to checkmate the Igbos.

However a few months afterwards, an Igboman Emeka Ojukwu spearheaded the Aburi agreement in which fiscal federalism and even confederation was adopted, but the other Nigerian, including Awolowo and Enahoro kicked against it. That is why fiscal federalism has not been experienced in this nation since then.

In 1972 Gowon with the support of Awolowo enacted and enforced the Indigenization decree which led to the collapse of the Nigerian economy.
To add insult to the festering injury Olusegun Obasanjo promulgated the Land Use Decree (now Land Use Act) in 29th of March, 1978.

By the provision of the Land Use Decree of 1978, the inhabitants of the oil producing communities were turned into squatters in their own ancestral homes, as land where oil is explored, produced, transported and stored were decreed to belong to the state long after political independence in 1960. The existence and application of the Land Use Act of 1978 contributed to the present state of neglect, under-development and the insecurity of the region.

And for the past 45 years, what have subsequent governments done to repeal the evil laws and entrench true practice of federal system of government? Absolutely nothing!



What is this one saying

The first coup was a lie

or what? ?

Land use act places land under the state governor, not federal so get that one right and stop lying to yourself.

And besides, I'm an Igbo person too, so what is your point?


Indigenisation policy destroyed the Nigerian economy?
Are you stupid or something?

So you rather have the key assets in your country owned by foreigners What id wrong with you?

You people's brains are just blocked to reasoning properly.

All you think is Biafra, Biafra without reasoning properly.

When other countries are looking for ways to expand territory, you want to disintegrate your own country, how wise is that?

Quebec has a definite area, Scotland has a definite area, Wallonia has a definite area, even Catalonia has a definite area, does Biafra have one

Okay that said, If Scotland could not leave UK, and Quebec could not leave Canada, You think "Biafra" which by the way is fraudulent would just walk away like that

Or assuming Biafra leaves it will not be overburdened by its own share of the national debt, and judging by how you miscreants are behavibg, are not in good terms with its neighbours, how will such country develop?

Who is the leader? What Makes Nnamdi Kanu think he is qualified to lead the Igbo nation, what are his antecedents

When an Ipob tout answers these questions convincingly, then I will take them a lil bit more serious.

These guys spoiling things for Igbo people like us.

Disciple of hate and propaganda, here are the members of Yoruba tribe that participated in the January 1966 coup:
(See Ben Gbulie: ‘Nigeria’s Five Majors.’).

*Adewale Ademoyega is the most prominent Yoruba participant in the coup, there were other Yoruba officers who were involved at the dangerous execution stage of the coup. One of them is:

*Second Lieutenant Olafimihan, an officer serving under Madiebo in Kaduna. He was sent by the plotters to gauge his commander’s loyalty. (See Madiebo pp.17-18).

*Another is Lieutenant (some books refer to him as a Captain) Fola Oyewole. He, like Ademoyega, went on to fight for Biafra and wrote a book on his coup and wartime experiences. The book’s title is ‘Reluctant Rebel.’

*There is also Captain Ganiyu Adeleke who became an instructor in the Biafran Infantry School. For confirmation, see the list of coup plotters detained by Ironsi’s regime in Ademoyega pp.106-108, and this quote from Nowa Omoigui’s online account: ‘Mid-Western Invasion of 1967’: ‘Captain Ganiyu Adeleke, who had taken part in both the January 15 coup and the Mid-Western invasion before becoming an instructor in the Biafran School of Infantry was released at a later date after his co-plotters had been freed.’ Omoigui’s work is significant because, though he exhibits a high level of professionalism in his research, he has no sympathy for the January 15 coup. If his facts corroborate Ademoyega’s they are worthy of attention.

You at still not making sense.

See all the hate coming out of you, no wonder you are not reasoning properly.


Tafa Balewa andAhmadu Bello were deleted (The two must influential leaders in northern Nigeria)L
Western Leaders were killed too, yet none from the East was deleted.

Nzeogwu is the face of the coup, Ironsi becomes president, Igbos are dominant in the military and civil service (due to merit in most cases)
Then Ironsi turns the country into a Unitary one, with the region's losing their powers..

What does this look like to you

I'm not saying the counter coup was right, but don't downplay what caused the mess.

We had this country in our pocket before, that was the beginning of our woes as a people.

Read history without biased mind, and purge yourself of the hate in you.

I believe in a United Nigeria. The present state of the country have exposed our weaknesses as humans and we begin to question what our fore-fathers have labored for. We can't afford to allow this country divide. We (hausa, Igbo, yoruba and other tribes) are all the same. Please, let's join hands to make it better.

America will not protect our unity (Remember, they predicted Nigeria's breakup to be in 2015 and here we are, saved by His Grace)

Other developed countries will not save us from dividing (they also have their problems too)

Nigerians are scattered all over the world and we have the best brains in the whole universe.. No doubt

Ask me..
Who built the super computer?
Who's Queen Elizabeth's personal physician?
Let's stop there for a while....

Now, the answer...

We have all it takes (manpower, brains, natural endowments) to be the best economy in the world...

So what is our problem?

You have your views and I have mine...

Let's unite and fix Nigeria because we are all stakeholders

Bile-filled creature, I feel your eternal pains and miseries since you're too bitter that many Igbos are ever determined to have a separate existence from greedy, treasury looters cum murderous parasites.

If you're learned you would have learnt from books that self-determination and clamouring for a simple referendum are no crimes. Notwithstanding your futile attempts at blackmailing the great Igbo Nation to stay put with you in this expired entity, you must get this fact right here and now: Igbos are not interested in sharing a country with hypocrites who are confused about what they stand for. Igbos have nothing in common with murderous parasites and hypocrites parading aimlessly on every available media page as One-Nigerianists.

You must stop lying to yourself and acknowledge the real situation on ground.

However, you can keep vomiting trash on NL thinking that an inconsequential being claiming Igbo on NL can stop the raging IPOB tsunamic movement.


"As we mark 50 years of what has now been termed Nzeogwu’s coup, what a lot of people appear to have forgotten is that the coup (of January 15, 1966) was greeted with celebration, even in many parts of Northern Nigeria."
- Reno Omokri was former Special Assistant to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan on New Media, January 2016

Battle Between Awolowo, Akintola Led To 1966 Coup- Yakassai - https://www.nairaland.com/2867045/battle-between-awolowo-akintola-led-to-1966-coup


I understand that your hypocrisy is such that you are at liberty to justify the killing of Aguiyi Ironsi and Fajuyi and over 3 million Igbos because the killers are your slave masters.

185 Igbo officers in the Nigerian military were selected and killed. As if that wasn't enough, Yorubas and other Southern stooges ganged up with their Hausa-Fulani-Kanuri masters, rushed into the streets and started killing Igbos and burning igbo establishments in the North and South-West. And the pogrom and carnage lasted for 10 months with an estimated 30,000 Igbos dead.
Aguiyi ironsi who was not part of the 1966 coup was killed.


The First Coup of January 15, 1966 chose to make Awolowo the next prime minister shows their nationalistic interest. Awolowo, a Yoruba man was to inherit the blessings of the plotters. And when the coup came to a disastrous end the slimy cowards and hypocrites out of convenience tagged it 'Igbo coup' even when they know that Major Ademoyega, Captain Adekeke and Lt. Fola Oyewole were all Yorubas and ring leaders of the January 15, 1966 coup.

The first incident of massacre of Igbos in Nigeria took place in Jos, on the 22nd of June 1945. Hundreds of Igbos were massacred by the Hausa/ Fulani and tens of thousand of pounds sterling worth of properties was either destroyed or looted.

The second mass killing of Igbos and at large Biafrans occurred in Kano in 1956. This occured after the Northerners defeated the motion for independence moved by Chief Anthony Enahoro and were jeered by their Southern colleagues.

Hausa-Fulanis backed by the Yorubas and other Southern stooges have always believed the North have monopoly of violence. And to you hypocrites such killings, maiming and wanton destruction of lives and properties are irrelevant and remain largely unpublished and this embolden the Jihadists to carry out more gruesome killings and gleefully committed genocide on Igbos and Easterners for daring to seek a separate existence.
