You are not serious with your biafra yet



You are can't antagonise and hate everyone yet you want to enjoy
Nigeria is a zoo
Then keep of


Address his points or shut up


You can't eat your akpu and have it

There is this age old narrative that has been peddled for far too long, that Igbos shouldnt be seeking Biafra because they are spread out all over Nigeria. Even Buhari mentioned something like that in his recent interview

Who says you cannot seek an independent homeland because of migration?

There are many Eritreans all over Ethiopia, but Eritrea left Ethiopia. Infact, many Eritreans still use Ethiopian passports to this day despite leaving Ethiopia over 25 years ago.

There are millions of British people living and working in the EU, but Britain left the EU

There are millions of Israeli-Jews spread across the world, but they have the State Of Israel

Theres no country in the world that doesn't have Nigerians, but there is the Federal Republic Of Nigeria.

So what is the basis of this talk that because Igbos are spread all over Nigeria, they cannot have Biafra?

Leybari:
Same way the world said that the Jews cannot have their own country because they are scattered all over..

Where is Israel now?

WesternOligarch:


Majority of the Jews were willing to go back.... despite the fact that Isreal was a semi barren desert, they weren't trying to gum body with their oil rich neighbors....

Leybari:


Neighbors or blood brothers?

I support Biafra and can't wait for it to come,so that all their kins and brethren can leave all the places they occupy in Nigeria and converge at Biafra. You can't have Biafra and still want to benefit from Nigeria, you can't eat your cake and have it. Something must go in order to gain another thing.

gidgiddy:


But you can have Federal Republic Of Nigeria but have Nigerians in America, Europe, Asia and other African countries?

WesternOligarch:


Nigerians over their go there with visas and permits you dumbo....your logic is daft, early morning foolishness.

Exactly, when we get Biafra, we will apply to go to Nigeria as we would any country.

The reason why the OP opened this thread is because he is afraid of a certain side effect of Biafra.

And it is called....treatment of foreigners.

Once Biafra is declared, Ibo and non Ibo citizens of Biafra would have to pay taxes, fees, etc at foreigner rates instead of citizen rates....which means that an Ibo man doing business in Nigeria could be paying higher taxes.

They may also be subject to foreigner laws...and restrictions.

At the end of the day, many Ibos living outside Biafra would have to take up Nigerian citizenship.

Think it won't happen? We have ECOWAS....yet countries like Ghana recently expelled non Ghanaians , who were bonafide ECOWAS citizens from their country.

There is nothing wrong with agitating for Biafra, but be aware of the consequences.

skywalker240:

you cant marginalize and show open hatred for a region and still stop them from leaving

you cant lick your ewedu and still have it

and yes Nigeria is a zoo

they dont want to be with you? then let them go

skywalker240:


they are willing to drop all those rubbish if the same stupid government wont call them fugitives in their lands

ESN was fighting herdsmen initially, before the zoo army attacked them


by the way, check my signature and register

No problem about that, when they exist and those who decided to remain behind will be given the GHANA TREATMENT.

WesternOligarch:


First go back to biafraland and agitate for biafra over there.....the issue is that unlike the jews, nobody is stopping you guys from going back to the east, but you probably won't go back for fear of your lives. Even me as an ibadan man I prefer my ibadan any day any time over Lagos even though I have strong family ties over there..... I always wonder what's chasing flatin0s away from their land to the lands of people they claim to hate them. Jews left eygpt.

To be honest, the Igbos have shown and lived the life of oneness than any other ethnic groups

They live relatively peacefully with their neighbors

So if a one man fulani president is telling us otherwise, shouldn't we collectively boot him out before he destroy our peaceful co-existence

My fear is that all these stubborn traits we are seeing in Buhari are just foundation for a grand conspiracy they are planning

I just hope that one day, we will not wake up to hear that ISWAP or whatever has hijacked aso rock oooooo and rename Nigeria as United Nations of Arab!

Nigerians, we are doing something but we can do better!

Uchek:
You are proudly ignorant. Igbos left Lagos, Yorubaland and the entire Nigeria in 1967 when we seceded from this zoo and established Biafra. You went to war to force back to Nigeria. So deal with our presence in Nigeria. That's why they call you folks SOPHISTICATED slowpoke.

Fulani has turned your kinsmen into refugees in Benin Republic. Instead of you to be focused on the state of Yoruba nation in Fulani-led Nigeria, you are rather Ndigbo-obsessed. What a slowpoke?
