Time For Igbos Intellectuals To Converge And Take Action..... by cumbak60: 2:50pm On Jun 19, 2017
This thread is in response to the issue on board. Northerners wants Igbos out, and Yorubas are not hiding their disdain for the Igbos, either. Nnamdi Kanu was vocal on Biafra, but his method and antics, attracted lots of hate and resentment from Nigerians. Perhaps, that was exactly his overall objective, attract hate and make them push Igbos out of the federation.
Respect to Nnamdi Kanu, even though I'm not in tune with his methods and ideology. Some of his ideologies on country formation is completely alien and ridiculous, especially on the "two wrapper" principle (Igbos can relate better). These, among others makes me cringe on his idea of Biafra.

Going by recent events, and threats coming from Arewa Youths, I think its high time Igbo intellectuals converge and chart the way forward. Yes, I support the idea of crafting a new entity for the Igbo people. My entire existence, I have learnt to tell myself the truth, void of pretense. Base on historical data and events over the years, I can categorically say, the Igbos are the most hated group in Nigeria. So no need to keep lying to ourselves that all is well. All is not well. Its only in Nigeria that a call to self-determination breeds hate and threat to existence. If not, why should the issue of referendum call for expulsion from Northern territory? Will Nigerians be stopped from owning properties and business in Biafra if its actualized? The answer is no. Nigerians will always be Nigerians.

Where are people like Charles Soludo, Pat Utomi, Ben Nwabueze.... etc? time to take the bull by the horn. The need to converge and create a new destiny for our future generation is now. Kanu has played his part. Visionaries and pragmatic minds need to take over and chart a new course for the Igbo nation. We need Biafra, and we need it on platter of peace and tranquility. #referendumLoading.

God Bless Ndi'Igbo
God Bless Biafra.

Please, take your time and go through this thread. This reveals the average mindset of Nigerians towards Indi'Igbo. They killed 3 millions of our mothers and children, and if given the chance they will do more. We must avoid the repeat of 1966. Yes, we need Biafra, but it must come through peaceful a means. The means this time around justifies the end.

these people you mentioned like Ben nwabueze, Ekwueme etc I am sure Kanu is in touch with them. infact i am sure that aside sit-at-home, one of the things that fueled northern frustration was Kanu's consultation with those Igbo leaders after his release.

In my opinion the hate has always existed and has nothing to do the Kanu's approach. If Kanu came with a meek approach these people will still find something else to hold as an excuse. They will probably say ''aaah yesterday MASSOB, now IPOB, and why cannot these Igbo people unify their struggle and Nigerians will listen''. We don't have to make our agitation palatable for these people because their opposition is not because we wronged them. Their opposition is the outcome of the clash of values systems. No amount of docile approach will appease them. What they dislike is in our way of life which we are born with. The only way is to be completely Igbo in our approach so that their stiff and stubborn necks will at the appointed time bend or break. I know it is possible.

Nobody is a coward. You and your president single handily made Nnamdi Kanu popular. I only knew about the existence of the guy soon after his arrest. If you 're had ignored him, may be, his lack of popular support would have silenced him, over time, now reverse is the case.

You still managed to sneak in Niger Delta. As usual, you guys are already fond of using the scare tactics of "go with your five states", when you're clearly loosing an argument. Listen up, Niger Delta core is also peopled by indigenous Igbo people, e.g Etche, Omuma Asa/Ndoki, Egbema, Anioma, and even Ikwerre. If these group choose to go with their Igbos kins, who are you to challenge them? So bro, chill and let events play out.
