mekaboy:Relax I don hear. And part of that ideology is belittling every one that is not first and foremost an Igbo and does not support the Biafra, as an ideology or as a nation? |

GrandGarcon: My brother forming a government in a black African country for the first time is not Photoshop. Electing that first interim president will be WAR talk more of when the people decide who will rule them. From that first interim president, people are already opting out of the union. The only way Biafra will work according to your plan is for a temporary colony. Where the British, Americans or Asians, will come and colonize us for a short while, install the government, nurture it, make it grow to a high level of maturity, then gradually pull out. Else, we will have a More violent and corrupt nation as Biafra. Even Nigeria that British left have gotten it all wrong talkless of a new African country starting on their own. |

mekaboy: You are not making any sense. What has Kanus British passport got to do with his belief in Nigeria? Kanu is a freedom freedom fighter not a politician. The main reason for Biafra has never worked and will never work. Even a fool who tried the same thing over and over again and is not working will try something new. This is not about Nnamdi Kanu, this about self determination. As I said before, Scotland is part of Britain, the 5th richest country in the world. Despite the fact Britain practices resource control real federalism, despite all the advantage of being part of one the richest nations in the world, Scotland still agitated that they want to go. Britain as the civilised country it put it to a referendum. Britain did not say 'we must be one Britain!', 'our unity is indivisible!', 'we will charge for treason!', 'we will go to war'. It was during the referendum debate that Scotland weighed the pros and cons of leaving Britain and voted to stay. The important thing here was that Scotlands right to self determination was fully respected. The same Britain used referendum to leave the EU last year. But when you come to Nigeria, we act like we are barbarians. Whenever any group oeacefully agitates for independence, we will roll out the military, gun some of them down, arrest others, charge them for treason and keep shouting an outdated slogan called 'one Nigeria'. Yet we dream about one day being as great as Britain while doing the opposite of what they do. The same Britain are the ones who created Nigeria but they are not killing each other to be together. It is your right to disagree with Biafra. What is not your right is to be against anyones right of self determination. If anyone feels that what Kanu is saying is wrong, support a referendum let everyone decide. Unity by force will not lead Nigeria anywhere 2 Likes |

GrandGarcon:So Biafra is going to run a confederato - Parliamento - traditionalo - presidential system of government? Very indigenously ingenious. |
Re: Nnamdi Kanu And His BIAFRA by mekaboy(m): 5:17pm On Jun 03, 2017 |
kingzizzy: I don't have a problem with a call for referendum. The countries you made mention of a develop, there reasoning is different from ours. They have a working system and if the decide to pull out they just continue with their system as it is. I am trying to enlighten you on the dangers of the Biafra you seek, so you look well before jump. You don't have a working system of government already, when.You are allowed to go, then you come and start building a government and test running as a nation in this present age and time? Let's hope a referendum comes then you will understand why those who fought for Biafra, are calling for restructuring and not a nation. Listen Nnia nwodo, the leader of Ohaneze. When they paint the pictures of biafra on paper, it looks wonderful, until it's time to form the government of the nation. |

Emirofsambisa1: I guess it's the illiterates that have been governing the Igbos that have looted public funds, and abandoned projects everywhere. It's an illiterate like my self that was the governor in Enugu state, when money was filled inside a water tank. Is lack of education the reason Nigeria is a still underdeveloped and third world country? |
Re: Nnamdi Kanu And His BIAFRA by Emirofsambisa1: 6:08pm On Jun 03, 2017 |
mekaboy: I have been reading all the comments and trying to see the sense in what you are trying to say but I couldn't. The Nigerian system permits corruption, Simple! Then romancing with colonialism? That was gross. When America gained independence, did they get colonised by France or consulted your ancestors? Don't make the black race a laughing stock 2 Likes |
Re: Nnamdi Kanu And His BIAFRA by menxer: 6:17pm On Jun 03, 2017 |
GrandGarcon:That's exactly what is holding back northern Nigeria from developing, despite the fact that they control or always want to be in control of the federal government and its resources all of the time, their traditional conservative views on certain aspect of life, which is at variance with the rest of the country's progressive views. |
Re: Nnamdi Kanu And His BIAFRA by GrandGarcon: 6:43pm On Jun 03, 2017 |
menxer:That is not what I am talking about. Look at Japan, despite all the high rise building and technological advancement, they still do not let their culture die, in fact the Emperor Akihito, is the custodian of the Japanese culture and language, they know where they are going but still do not forget where they are comming from. How about Qatar, Thailand, Britain, I think Holland, Denmark, Sweden, even Morocco and Jordan, arent these countries developed? But the king or queen is very much alive. |
Re: Nnamdi Kanu And His BIAFRA by obailala(m): 7:12pm On Jun 03, 2017 |
mekaboy:I asked this very bolded question to a friend recently and his response was epic; the response was "we have bad/unpatriotic/unfocused/clueless leaders all over Igbo land today because our leaders have always been chosen and influenced by the Yorubas and Hausas. But that when Biafra comes, we would ensure we choose only good/focused/patriotic people to lead without the Yoruba and Hausa influence." As shocking and embarrassingly silly as the answer above is, this was the exact same response Nnamdi Kanu gave when he was asked the exact question by an elder some 2 years ago. It doesn't take much to realise that the 'loudest' Biafran chanters are just the illiterate common men on the streets who need others to do their thinking for them. A typical example of the intellectual laziness of the chanters is their usual belief that anyone who thinks differently from them must be 'afonja.' 1 Like 1 Share |

GrandGarcon:But that is exactly what you are saying, those countries you mentioned have been able to adapt their culture to fit their prevailing progressive mindset of today or is it adapted their progressive mindset to fit their culture? But, which ever way, they are not conservative in their thinking or reactive in their doings. |

We should preserve our cultural values, and language. Look foward but don't forget where you are comming from. You yoruba people will always try to twist things and put words into people's mouths, all for political gains. |
Re: Nnamdi Kanu And His BIAFRA by menxer: 7:48pm On Jun 03, 2017 |
GrandGarcon:Well, why do you think they use Hausa language in teaching in schools there? Does language not have cultural value? You should try defending your opinion in a social discourse without recourse to tribal taunt that is uncalled for. Besides, I am a Nigerian of Ibibio extraction. |

Nwakaumu: I am Igbo, so i dont know what your talking about. They loot our state and you turn a blind eye, calling for Biafra. If you cant take care of or account for the allocation you get from Nigeria for your state and region, is it the Biafra own that you will account for ? |
