Igboid: Below is an example of pictures of minorities casualties from Biafran military wickedness. I remember you asked me for pictures. Will you deny this too?

Iegendhero: Are you aware that Effiong Ojukwu second in command was from Ikot Ekpene? Ikot Ekpene was laid siege to by Nigerian Army who committed war crimes in that town. Infact one of the problems Ojukwu had with Effiong was that Ojukwu refused to deploy enough Biafran troops to defend Ikot Ekpene from falling. I don't know where the picture you posted came from, but it isn't so far away from Nigerian propaganda backed by the British. Any civilian massacre in Ikot Ekpene was done by the Nigerian Army. Just as they were shooting at anything that was moving in Ph as boasted by Adekunkle, so were they doing in Ikot Ekpene. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Igboid: The first image is the decree by Ironsi against the peddling of mockery news. It was borne out of the fact that the Ibos are mocking them in the North for the death of their tribesleader. Ironsi as wise as he is knows his kinsmen are setting themselves up for genocide with their thoughtless mannerism but it was too late to mend. You are talking to Legendhero here, I don’t speak without having evidence to back my assertions. The other picture is the rendering of the bread loaf and other pamphlets the igbos used in mocking the Northerners. Even studying the Igbo with their current mannerism, every sane person will believe they can do this judging at their way of taking action before thinking. Read Azikiwe statement supporting the fact that the Igbos mocked the Northerners in the attached text below.

Igboid: I hope people on this thread can see the Igbo logic. —I first uploaded a journal, he said it is not genuine because there is no images to back the assertion. —Now I uploaded a picture, he again said it was a lie and that it was Nigerian army instead lol. Igbo logic! You think I’m uploading these images to convince you?? Hell no, I’m doing this for sane minds to understand the true nature of both side in the war. To understand the lies of the Igbo man and his cunning way of appealing to pity while hiding his own wickedness. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Iegendhero: Your picture is senseless. Nigeria had their own propaganda too during the war, and part of it included such pictures you posted. Most of those communities had to do and say whatever they are told to say to avoid similar thing like what happened to Isheagu happening to them, once their towns fell to federal troops. I mean it's so worst that Igbo communities in Delta were denying their Igbo tag to avoid massacre. Ikot Ekpene was under FG occupation when the picture you uploaded occurred, how do we verify the authenticity of the report? 12 Likes 2 Shares |

Iegendhero: No where in the decree was Ndiigbo mentioned, you are basically grasping at straws here. Rex Lawson is not an Igbo man, he is Ijaw, and his song came out as a hit years before Saraduna Massacre. The song had nothing to do with the massacre. The bread picture is ridiculous. So you went and Created a new bread paper in 2010 with modern colored printing press, just to justify your Igbo genocide? You are desperate, that's for sure. There is a thread on NL that bread paper was dissected, let me go fetch it. Yeah, I found it: https://www.nairaland.com/2690144/mystery-1966-loaf-bread..north-distortion The above is an exposure of the extent you lots will go to spread falsehoods against Ndiigbo to justify your genocide. 12 Likes 2 Shares |

Igboid: You should link time to event and stop trying to feign ignorance . Ironsi made that decree during those period when the Igbos lost their mannerism in the North while celebrating the death of the likes of Saraduana. Why will he mention Igbo in the decree? Don’t you see he states particularly in the Northern region in the decree? I already said the loaf of bread is a rendering. If you understand English you will get what I meant. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Below is a video of an annual celebration in the Kalabari Ijaw town of Abonnema to commemorate How Biafran Troops massacred and Evicted Ijaw people in many Ijaw towns like Abonnema and Bakana during the Nigeria Vs Biafra Civil War.

Iegendhero: Ironsi made the decree because tension was high everywhere and people where making accusations and counter accusations against each other. No where in that article was Igbos mentioned, and Lex Lawson is not Igbo, and his song Ewu na ebe kwa came out years before Nzeogwu led coup. Yup! That's your propaganda up in flames! And when we factor in the fact that some of you went on to create a bread paper in 21st century,to serve as evidence of Igbos taunting Northerners over Saraduna death, your dark minds even become more obvious and exposed. https://www.nairaland.com/2690144/mystery-1966-loaf-bread..north-distortion 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Iegendhero: I have been in Ijaw threads and Those of them honest to themselves would tell you that what happened in Ijawland was a mini civil war between Ijaws who were pro BIAFRA and those who were Pro Nigeria. They fought among each other, and when the pro Nigeria group won, they decided to bury their hatchet and transfer the blame to Igbos. Even Asari Dokubo admitted this. What is shameful is that it took him coming to beg us to vote for GEJ for him to say the truth about that part of our shared history. Let me go fetch Asari Dokubo quote on that. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Igboid: Stop dwelling on the bread image itself which is already noted as rendering. That doesn’t stop the fact that what it tend to portray happened so stop dilly dallying. I said in my intial mention that it is rendering and even showed you the Ironsi decree which was specifically targeted against the Northern region for the ethnic tension building up there due to the mannerism of ibos there. I have seen this same explanation in New York Times archive about the Igbos mocking the North contributing to the genocide. I will upload the text here when I lay my hand on it. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Do you know the meaning of rendering? My integrity is intact coz I called that out specifically thinking am conversing with someone of nearly equal intellect who pay attention to discourse details. Below is from the comment you quoted. The other picture is the rendering of the bread loaf and other pamphlets the igbos used in mocking the Northerners.

Iegendhero: So it's now a rendering? Your forerunners who first presented that paper bread before they were busted never said it was a "rendering" , I can as well provide the old threads here on that. They were pushing the agenda that it was the original. I wouldn't be surprised if you were part of them under different moniker. And now hiding behind "rendering" because you know you had been busted. Okay, since you said it's a "rendering", baa damua! Can you now show us the original one? 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Igboid: Lol, I don’t need anyone to teach me what to say at my level of exposure and resources at my disposal. I have my integrity intact, gave you the image of the decree by Ironsi against people circulating ethnically motivated mockery in the North, a text image from the book and the rendering of the said example of the mockery. Mind you, there are several examples of those mockery that were circulated. One can’t deny all this self-evident truth when you look at the nature and mannerism of the Ibo man. So this is left for the outside party to decipher. So far on this thread, I have been able to prove a lot. —Gave texts from an author that sources his evidences from a university in the same Igbo land giving credence to the fact that the Biafran army massacred the minorities. —A pictorial evidence showing the destruction by the Biafran forces against the ethnic minorities. —A video of folks in Rivers state commemorating How Biafran Troops massacred and Evicted Ijaw people in many Ijaw towns like Abonnema and Bakana during the Nigeria Vs Biafra Civil War. — The decree from Aguiyi Ironsi specifically directed toward the Northern region to stop the mockery by the Ibos in the region. That you can deny something like this that is common knowledge says a lot about you. —An extract from a journal presenting the findings of the mockery by the Ibos and a rendering of some of the method deployed to aid the mockery. To all this evidence I presented, you have denied everything saying it’s either fake news, wrong, jargons, and etc. What we are doing is an academic exercise, people can see those that backed their argument with facts and references and those that just base their thinking on Ibo logic. 10 Likes 3 Shares |

Iegendhero: - Texts that were very vague and did a good job not providing names of those killed , their villages, and the Biafran Commander or unit involved. - A pictorial evidence that is contaminated and rendered with surival instincts kicking in , as Ikot Ekpene fell into the FG troops hand. Peeps had to do whatever it took to stay alive and FG had to use them to run their propaganda against Biafra. - No where were Igbos mentioned in that decree. You are simply pulling that out of your ass. Your desperation is obviously palpable, Mr Fulani. - A video made by a people who are suffering from pseudologia fantastica. Let them provide names of people Biafrans massacred, their villages and the Biafran units involved.

Igboid: Hahahah lol. Now I’m even Fulani? That is your new decoy of derailing the course of the thread? So the Ijaw people in the video are suffering from pseudologia fantastica? Igbo logic! So the pictorial evidence reeks of survival instinct? It is real but they did it because of survival instinct? I don’t even understand the Ibo logic here. So why was the decree made then and why did he specifically directed it to the Northern region? Are the Northerners the one mocking themselves? How will he write Ibo on it? Even Buhari won’t specifically mentioned Ibo in the decree in that instance let alone Aguiyi Ironsi an Ibo man. Xxxxx: Do you know Azikiwe also gave credence to that assertion of Igbos mocking the Northerners in his book titled “The Origin of the Nigerian civil war”? Just 17pages sort of book. When I get my hands on that actual book, I will scan it and upload this thread. The reference was mentioned in that text I uploaded but as a chronic denier that you are, you will need the actual hard copy of the book to believe. Even when you have the hard copy, you might either say Azikiwe is an efulefu or he was pressured to write it at gunpoint. 3 Likes |

Igboid: The above explains what Happened in those Ijaw areas. They had fierce civil war between pro Nigeria and pro Biafrans among them. The pro Biafrans had upper hand initially and wielded it strong. But when the region fell to FG forces, the pro Nigeria became strong and went for their own power grab. The pro Biafra kings all fell to the sword or abdicated their thrones. The kingdom was disunited. To reunite, they created a fallacy of Igbos coming to kill them, and exonerated their own brothers who were the pro Biafrans they were actually fighting with. It's a narrative that brought peace to them, but at the expense of historical distortion. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

You are not as hidden as you think you are. - Yes! The kind of Carnage FG troops wrecked in captured territories in East and in Midwest is better told than felt. It was in surival instincts mode that those Igbo communities in Delta started denying their Igbo identity, which has continued till today. It's a surival instinct. If helping Nigerian troops make videos and pics claiming that the atrocities they committed in Ikot Ekpene helped save that man and the remnant of his family, then it's a reasonable thing to do to stay alive. - You are beating around the bush. You quote Jesus or Allalh if you like, but make sure that person shows me where Igbo is written in that edict. Because anything else would be subjective opinions. On why it was directed towards the North, i wouldn't know. Only Ironsi would know. So far all evidence you have presented to prove Igbos taunting the Northerners all were busted. - Ewu na ebe Akwa was composed by Igbos to mock Saraduna death. Turned out song was sang by an Ijaw man and was made years before Saraduna death. Propaganda epic failure. -Igbos printed bread to mock Saraduna- Bursted since 2015, so they have resorted to saying it's a mere "rendition" , they can't provide the original because it doesn't exist.
