Ijaw is a group of people who have believe in so many lies over the years, to the point is sounding like truth to them,when you hear most of them insult and rain abuse on igbo people in river state, you will think igbos are strangers in the state. 13 Likes 1 Share |

For our IPOB brothers who think everything starts and ends with their "suplim lida", you all should try and read this thread:https://www.nairaland.com/500126/true-extent-alaigbo-igboland I, like many Igbo nationalists here, was there at the beginning to the end of that thread. Of course I was under different moniker then. Read carefully through that thread. Because it would appear some of you are attributing the ground work of Igbo nationalists who went all over Nigerian forums, from Nigeriavillagesquare of those days, to bestnaijaforum, etc that held sway before nairaland took over, preaching the gospel of true extent of Igboland and arguing for Igbo only Biafra without Minorities, especially Ijaws, to MNK. MNK only arrived to the scene in 2014 or thereabouts and only became active in 2015 following Buhari lack of tact. And I can tell you that all MNK did was put a stop to the pan Igbo nationalism movement that was beginning to take hold then and replaced it with Babelian Biafra of "two wrapper" wearing tribes. MNK and IPOB only succeeded in derailing the pan Igbo nationalistic movement that was gathering pace, and replaced it with a shameful era of unity begging to minorities. The only good to come out this now drawing to end MNK era, is that,many Igbos youths who know nothing about history of Ndiigbo and minorities in the East, were exposed to Igbophobia of minorities and now understand better why Igbo nationalists who are guided by history, insisted on Igbo only Biafra from the beginning. So to an extent, MNK played a big role in this our struggle,but then his role must be put in the right context. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Ariani: One thing is true about your post The incarceration of MNK will lead to the rise of a more militaristic and goal oriented Biafrans.

SlayerForever: What work exactly has IPOB done? "Rabblerousing" ? MASSOB did more than that. How exactly has IPOB enriched Igbo nationalism and advanced Igbo interests? Under IPOB beggarly multi ethnic BIAFRA of tower of Babel. Ndiigbo became object of rudicule to insignificant minorities who in real sense has nothing to offer offer us, if we get our house in order. IPOB derailed Igbo nationalism. You only think IPOB made headways because they came at the era of social media unlike MASSOB, so they had access to Internet to dispatch their agenda quicker and gather more followers far and wide than MASSOB could have ever dreamed of. 2 Likes |

Ariani: This is somehow funny and I'll tell you why. One can never claim IPOB derailed Igbo nationalism because though the organization does not strictly fight for Igbo areas alone, in the mode of operation it is STRICTLY ENSURED that the erroneous state lines and the divisive "my state" identity that has plagued Ndigbo since after the war is eradicated. The cohesion IPOB brought with that move is unprecedented. In fact, it is that eradication of the nonsense "state identity" that makes IPOB so formidable. People don't know. Individual Igbo states don't exist in IPOB, this in turn brought forward the Igbo bu otu nationalistic drive. Now look at erstwhile "timid" Ebonyi today, boldly identifying. Do you know how grateful they are to Nnamdi Kanu. You know how things used to be. You can't compare IPOB and MASSOB at all in mode of operation. It is not about social media, IPOB is well structured (mind you thousands of MASSOB members defected to IPOB and yet IPOB retains its structure, focus and mode of operation). In fact I have had intellectualists opine that IPOB is the most organized body in Nigeria today. Today Igbo identity is always on the fruntburner, from Igbos in Delta, to Igbos in Rivers, to Bonny, Opobo. Even daringly Kalabari and Okrika. No time since the war has Igbo people been this assertive. It is a threat to the status quo that has been maintained all this while. And who are the majority perpetuating this Igbo discussions : IPOB "foot soldiers". So all these is derailing of Igbo nationalism? Unbelievable. Eastlink said he is a realist this morning. I smiled at the statement. I reckon you fancy yourself a realist too. If one cannot rid sentiment from reasoning one cannot be said to be a realist, for sentiment is idealism. Plainly, if you cannot shun bias when considering a subject matter and pick the obvious positives you are halfway to failing. 3 Likes |

SlayerForever: Lol! IPOB eliminated state lines and replaced it with what? They replaced it with "two wrapper based Biafran tribe that existed before Igbo and contains all ethnic groups whose mothers tie two wrappers". MNK even once said there is nothing like Igbo. That he is not Igbo, but rather a Biafran. MNK and IPOB fought tooth and nail to obliterate the Igbo identity and tag and in its place create a fictional "Biafran" identity where Ndiigbo are apparently supposed to be one and same people as myriads of minorities stretching from SS to Cameroon and Igala/Idoma. See, MNK era has not even totally come to an end, and his disciples are already distorting history. IPOB and MNK have never fought for Igbo nationalism. Instead they tried unsuccessfully and albeit foolishly to kill Igbo identity by merging the Igbos with unrelated Igbophobic minorities under a fabricated Biafran ethnicity. That was how maps showing the existence of delusional Biafra kingdom before British colonialism were fabricated by MNK and IPOB. We all watched it unfold here and could only shake our heads in disgust while holding our Patience to atleast see where he was heading to. 3 Likes |

Ariani: You guys also caused as much harm as good. I was very much aware of the happenings during this time and I can tell you that you guys and your goons like Abagworo, ChinenyeN etc and chino or whatever his name is, were destroying the image of Igbos on this forum by talking shit and exposed most of the things outsiders used against Igbos on this forum. Most of your lacked tact and would fight dirty outside. Although, you were doing the work of bringing awareness, but what MNK did in a year you guys didn't do 0.1%. MNK was the reason for the new Igbo consciousness and not the one thread a year discussion while the rest was based on empty bickering of superiority and debasing other Igbo groups.

Ekealterego: We discussed and ironed out differences between us that we normally don't speak on but breed mutual suspicions that worked against Igbo Unity. We washed our dirty linens outside? Yes, it was necessary we came out true to each other, we became Better for it. Chyz and Wesley held sway for Ukwuani/Ndokwa brothers, keeping the Igbophobic ones among them at Bay by educating them. Ogbuefi from Ika did same for IKa. Ezepromoe and Abagworo held the show for Ikwerre. Onlytruth our general held forth for Anaedo clan. We had Ezeuche for Aro, Dede 1 for the trenches against Yoruba onslaught, ACM my Ogidi kinsman was his Shadow man from, we had Policewoman from Obiigbo, real Asa tribal woman. There was Eziachi from Orlu with his life experience civil war stories. Obiagu1 was the erudite researche and myth buster. Not forgetting Afam4eva from Amaechi Awkunanaw Enugu and Igboboy from Aniocha. There was also One Naira from Asaba. It was the age of Igbo enlightenment. Information overload from that formidable team was something else. I struggled to keep up with my school work because I just had too many materials to read on Igbo history that they were making available. IPOB and MNK has not 1% of information on Igbo history, pre colonial, colonial, pre civil war and post civil war like those men had. All IPOB and MNK had done was take us 360 and back to where we were before they came. Simply because IPOB lacked knowledge of history of Ndiigbo and her minorities neighbors. IPOB has brought Ndiigbo unending ridicule from insignificant minority groups with their shameless unity begging. 2 Likes |

Ariani:Well, not knocking what you did but all that work started and ended here on Nairaland and maybe Nigervillagesquare. .. your audience are limited and your outreach not so far. Probably, relevant to those who truly wanted to know more and are of course educated. What MNK preached got to the streets, to the farmers, the market men and women, the ordinary secondary school boys and girls. The Nwaboys and Ogas. Iyawos and the rich business men. The consciousness he created saw massive Facebook groups reaching over millions of members and countless ones with hundreds of thousands. I can beat my chest to tell you that there is no ethnic group that boasts of that incredible numbers in different and numerous clusters on social media. This started in the MNK's era. Of course you are allowed to feel a little jealous and all that cos you have been grinding for years but bros. How many books from history pages have you guys uploaded? In just recent years, many pages of history books and excerpts have been uploaded due to this movement. You have to understand that although MNK have a Babelian approach but his work also had a double edged sword, it brought so much awareness. I know not all have worked to perfection but we are having a clearer definition 0f our allies, borders and enemies. Don't underestimate the effect because you think you have been grinding for years. In all these years you guys have not pressured Ohanaze to sit up no create a massive social media following or some form of alliance beyond social media. Look on the bright side. 2 Likes |
