Ojukwu wasn't fighting in the interest of Niger Delta. Ojukwu was only interested in completely owning the oil resources. Make no mistakes, Igbos still remain the most self-centered ethnic group in Nigeria.

Dedetwo:


Please write you mean and mean what you write in order to avoid silly ambiguity. A foreigner has already complained about the level of intellect of most Nigerians. There is nothing such as "true federalism".

Dedetwo:


How are Ndigbo self-centered? Is there any crime if the federal government has to build cities such as Lagos and Abuja in the defunct eastern region of Nigeria? What about wharf in the defunct eastern region? Now if Biafra is actualized tomorrow, there must be more than two cities in Biafra with the shade of Lagos or Abuja. Of course, Biafra will build more than one military academies in Biafra. There will be, at least, two deep-water seaports in Biafra. However these economic infrastructures can never see daylight in defunct eastern region as long as the region is part of the cesspit called Nigeria. Nigeria is simply a cause. The most self-centered ethnic nationality is the colonial contraption remains the one that feels all economic infrastructures are situated in its area therefore every Nigerian should remain attached to Nigeria even if the cesspit is a complete dead-end.

In my honest opinion, let every tribe in SS fight for what belongs to them like Ijaws are doing. As an Igbo man my concern remains the Igbos in the SS.
After listening to an Ogoni man claiming that Kanu wants to steal his oil just few minutes ago on Channel's TV program -The Core anchored by Kadaria Ahmed, I asked myself- 'Is this the kind of ingrates we in IPOB should bleed for?' Absolutely not!
He also repeated 'There will be no Biafra referendum in Ogoni land.

I will start opposing Kanu if he leads my people to the slaughter because of these ingrates in the Niger delta. I'll only fight for a Biafra without ingrates from Niger delta. Let them carry their cross, our cross as Biafrans is heavy enough, I don't want a mini-nigeria where an ogoni will claim the Igbos want their resources.

not one of us ,not one urhobo man or whatever they are called ,not one bloody Niger deltan deserves to criticise nnamdi kanu's biafran struggle.At least he spoke for his people ,he went to jail for his beliefs and people,he is still fighting for his people.But where are the Niger deltan "criminal"activists,how many of them went to jail for their people,how many of them are as bold as nnamdi kanu.I may not support his beliefs but I will respect him till eternity.
What have we benefited from Nigeria as a united country,absolutely nothing,instead our lands get polluted day after day ,80% of oil blocks are owned by northerners not even us,we have been busy fighting ourselves foolishly,very few of us own oil blocks ,we had the presidential power we bleeped up big time.
If there is any set of people that should be fighting for self governance it is not even the igbos,but the Niger deltans for too long our people have suffered ,we have been defrauded by several leaders even by our own elites in the Niger delta.we need to start voting for a different kind of people who will lead us not the same vagabonds over and over ,sometimes I wonder don't our stupidity ever stop.
being in Nigeria is of no benefit to us ,why should you be in a country that doesn't allow you control your destiny .it is time for our people to wake up and be accountable for everything wrong that has gone wrong in our land.

9jabull:


Yes the man from ogoni said so but doesn't reflect majority mind of ogoni people inasmuch i believe that Igbo's can survive well without them (oil & access to sea we have) but I also know that some of them are in IPOB or have a different believe different from that mans own. So that where referendum comes in for every tribe in Biafra land including ogoni even minor tribes in the north or any where have the right too for referendum if they want to stay on their own.

Afam4eva:

I actually watched the Ogoni man in that interesting political discussion. He was visible angry at everything, not just Nnamdi Kanu. Note that at the beginning of the show he said that "We are all Biafrans" which he used to highlight the fact that every part of Nigeria is feeling some sort of neglect. I can understand why he would be angry anyway because if you look at the interview with Nnamdi Kanu that he was reacting to, Nnamdi Kanu came across as arrogant and was just marking territories according to the man. Nnamdi Kanu was asked which part of Nigeria covers Biafran territory and he mentioned all the SE and SS states except Edo state. So, this guy was feeling like, we were not consulted. You don't go around marking territories without insulting the sensibilities of the indegenes in those terrains.

I've noticed that Niger Deltans don't necessarily have a problem with Biafra per se. Their problem is the fact that they're not been carried along properly. For instance, if Nnamdi Kanu can court some freedom fighters in those areas to join his movement. For instance, if people like Asari Dokubo and co join the movement actively and not by proxy, only then will these groups in those areas with be able to resonate with the Biafran struggle through their own leaders. Nnamdi Kanu having foot soldiers who have no followership in those areas is a recipe for disaster.

Afam I need to buy you beer. Infact I need you to become an IPOB member so you can share your native intelligence. With you there, they can reason straight. Pazienza used to think straight, before they zombied him.

attackgat:


What are you buying him beer for? You are not ashamed that someone else has to remind you of your right to self determination?

TheKingIsHere:


Stop asking dumb question. You guys are talking as if ojukwu wanted to do us a favour meanwhile Isaac boro was the first to clamour for independence from Nigeria.. So why didn't ojukwu help him then since you said ojukwu was trying to help us? Aboki.. . Shior

HopeAtHand:


I want to buy him beer because he is an Igbo that is not blinded by the thoughtless approach of IPOB. IPOB without minding the sensibilities of other ethnicities, without consulting their opinion, wholesomely added them to a map they know nothing of and are insisting they must be a part of the arrangement.

Igbos are really taking southern minorities for granted. but lemme remind Igbos that at the end, they remain the worst losers.

Afam4eva:

Please, can we just for once stop telling lies because it's becoming nauseating. Ojukwu was not a saint and i don't think he was necessarily fighting to free the Niger Delta from the northern caliphate like you put it. Though you can say he was fighting the North against oppression of the territory he governed which included the minorities in the east. Now, we wouldn't know what was going through Ojukwu's mind as it pertains to the minorities and their resources. So, it's imperative that we stop spreading falsehood to paint white what is not white.

a simple question and you are ranting up and down. Was Ojukwu the military administrator of the eastern region then?

attackgat:


Oh come of it. You are not fooling anyone with the above.

You did not complain when Lord Lugard drew a map called Nigeria and put you people in it

You did not complain when Gowon drew a map called Rivers state and put you people in it

You did not complain when Abacha drew a map called 'South South' and put you people in it.


But as soon as Kanu and IPOB drew their own map, thats when you suddenly realised that you have 'sensibilities' and you were not consulted?

Lol

You think this is just about if Igbos get Biafra or not? They will one day.

This has become more about if the minorities of Southern become slaves of the North.

Lets face it, the moinorities have very slim choices, breakout with Igbos or stay in Nigeria and keep begging the North for resource control/restructuring. There is no third choice. So nobody is consulting you about nothing, you guys should have decided by now what you want.

If ojukwu wasn't, why are you guys ranting up and down that he was trying to help us? Shior!!

I also saw an interview on TVC where a young man who claimed to be the leader of the Ijaw youth congress said that Ijaws are not Biafrans and there will be no referendum in Ijawland. The same day he said this, Asari Dokubo came out in an interview to reaffairm that him and the Ijaw nation are Biafrans. Am I to believe Asari Dokubo who has actually fought in the creeks or am I to believe a small boy who has never fought for anything?

It is incredible how stupid some of these people in the so called Niger Delta are. Some of them are the biggest losers in Nigeria,

yet, they say will continue to remain in Nigeria and continue losing.

Some of them like Tonyebarcanister or whatever his name is have the vision of "one Nigeria'" where everybody will be begging the North for resource control/restructuring and hopefully, maybe the North will agree to this one thousand years from now. Lol

My grandfather used to say 'you can only save someone who wants to be saved'

Maybe it is just the destiny of some of the tribes in the Niger Delta to be providing the Oil money needed to be running the 44 Local Govts of Kano. Who are we to judge?

One thing I know is that eventually, everybody will finally come to the realisation that the core North will never allow any restructuring of Nigeria. When that time comes, every ethnic group in the Niger Delta will face the same question Ojukwu faced 50 years ago....

"Do I submit myself to be a slave of the North or do I fight for my sovereignty?"

nengibo:
The real question should be why are Igbos afraid of Niger Delta Republic, if truly they really want to help the Niger Delta, they should support a Niger delta free from the 3 major tribes, igbo, hausa and yoruba are all d same

plaetton:

Yeah, the Igbos remain the most self-centered people in Nigeria.

Just look at how many military coups that they have done in Nigeria to seize and monopolize political power.
Just look at their born-to-rule syndrome.
Just look at how many times they have annulled peaceful Democratic elections.
Just look at how many inter tribal killings and genocides they have committed in Nigeria.
Just look at them, they don't even venture out of their regions to work or invest.
Look how many times they prefer to Kling to power and die in political office rather than resign for ill health.
Look at them,. they neither educate nor train their teaming young populations for survival in a competitive world.
When they are rich, they neither take care of their siblings nor relatives.
They have no community spirit. They neither build schools, health care centers nor vocational centers for their communities.
They just depend on government and government largesse.

Yes, Igbos are the most self-centered people in Nigeria.

attackgat:


Do you see anybody in the so called Niger Delta agitating for Niger Delta Republic?

EzeUche:
Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB gives us a great opportunity to correct the mistakes of the past.

Along with Ann-Kio Briggs and Asari Dokubo we can have a brighter future if we support the referendum.

nengibo:

The agitation for Niger delta republic had been on even before the biafrian movements, everyone must not go about it the same way
