A Brief On Isaac Adams Boro And The Course He Led by Sabiupdates: 9:34am On May 21, 2020 |
Major Isaac Jasper Adams Boro ( September 10, 1938 - May 9, 1968 ). He was a brave man, a man that loved and care for his people. We will not allow this social media miscreants to change Adaka Boro story. The first Armed Rebellion against the federal republic of Nigeria was initiated and implemented by Adaka Boro. Igbo man was the President of Nigeria, when Adaka Boro led an armed protect against the exploitation of oil and gas resources in the Niger Delta Areas. The Igbo government were using the natural resources of Niger Delta to develop Southeast, with Capital in Enugu and nothing was given to the Niger Niger Delta people. Adaka Boro wanted the people of Niger Delta to control a larger share of proceeds of their own oil wealth. On February 23, 1966, they declared the Niger Delta Republic. They fought the forces for twelve days before they were defeated. President ( Aguyi Ironsi ) sentenced Adaka Boro to death and jailed his followers for Treason. The military Government of General Yakubu Gowon granted Adaka Boro amnesty on the eve of the Nigerian civil war in may 1967. That is the reason why Adaka Boro fought on the side of the Federal government of Nigeria against Biafra people during the War. But was killed by Nigeria army under mysterious circumstances in 1968.

If Adaka Boro were to wake up now and see the desecration of his homeland and the destruction of their eco system,he will plan another uprising and fight Nigeria |

You see ipob are only quiet because Yoruba and Hausa will checkmate their excess. They are wicked human being. Leave South south at the mercy of IPOB and see their true color. Their fake friendship with south south is because of oil. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Sabiupdates: Adaka Boro did not declare Niger delta republic because Aguiyi Ironsi who has been in power for merely 12 days was using oil proceeds to develop Enugu or any part of Igbo kand for that matter. as at the 1960s,oil have not become a huge foreign exchange earner though the potential was there. oil actually became a big earner from 1970 because of the Arab-Israeli war/wars (the first oil boom). the main reason why Boro wanted a Niger delta republic is because,as Wellinki pointed out in his report,the Niger delta because of its terrain needs a special status and attention for it to be developed and Boro felt that its only an independent Niger delta republic can do that. |

overall90: Bros it is shame that large section of Nigerian population remains stack ignorant. Isaac Adaka Boro like his forbearers and tribesmen were agents of NPC and political elites of northern region of Nigeria. It was the proceeds from Enugu coal that gave Igweocha in Ikwerre and other backwater villages in Ijo a link to livelihood. Talk about biting the fingers that are feeding you. |

Dedetwo: the level of ignorance is nauseating. a lot of these folks look at Nigeria of pre and immediate post independence with the eye of 2020. |
