Daily Post Published on January 24, 2024By Matthew Atungwu The Pioneer Archbishop of the Enugu Anglican Ecclesiastical Province, Most Rev. Amos Madu, has issued a stern warning to those calling for another war in Nigeria to refrain from doing so. Madu stated this in Enugu on Wednesday while interfacing with newsmen on the theme, ‘End of Civil and Unfulfilled Gratitude to God by Ndi Igbo: A Way Forward’. The cleric, who said that those making the call did not witness the 30-month Nigerian civil war between 1967 and 1970. According to him, those calling for war are ignorant of what they are asking for, as life during the war was genocidal, unbearable and extremely tough, with many children and adults dying of starvation and curable diseases. He noted that mothers at that time cooked food without salt, fish, meat, or vegetables. The cleric stressed that it was an experience no one should ever dream of. He urged the elders to sensitize and direct the youths on the right path to avoid mistakes that could push the Igbo nation into another civil war. The bishop said that the Igbos had failed to thank God for stopping the war, noting that everybody was surprised when the war ended in 1970. “We should always remember Jan. 15th every year to honour God for what he had done for the Igbos. “Only one diocese has done it in 2023 but many did it this year because of the awareness and the declaration that the Igbos should wake up from their slumber. “They have stayed long in the wilderness, self-imposed slavery and bondage. 3 Likes 3 Shares

The war would be fought on the pages of nairaland.com with no winners. First war was caused by a rumor of an unfounded igbo coup stopped by igbo officers. Second war will still be caused by a rumor unfounded but stopped before it gains momentum. 3 Likes |

The Bishop is reffering to the ignorant folks like gidgiddy who thought war is inter house sports. Unfortunately there are millions of gullible folks in Igboland who has been misinformed and misled by yahoo yahoo freedom fighters. 11 Likes 5 Shares |

Na wao. When did igbos start calling for war? They are just asking for the government to set up a sort of balloting system whereby the people from 9 states that comprised of the old Eastern region can either choose aye or nay concerning their willingness to belong to a new Biafra state. Where is the war in such a demand? 6 Likes |

I wonder who He is talking to bcus I am yet to see Igbos calling for war. Even the secessionist groups amongst Us are only but calling for a referendum which I am sure they can't achieve. Let's continue to talk about Igbo while the Country burn. Nigeria has been nothing but a curse to the common man in this Country, Nigeria only favours the rich and elites,this reality is what We live in. Minus Igbo,the Nigerian system has been nothing but a curse to the average common Yoruba and Hausa man. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Nobody is calling for war, Simon Ekpa said Biafrans will start their referendum on 1st of February 2024 that's not a call for war. We are only asking for Referendum so that we can fully take care of our region and resources and stop the marauding killer herdsman from slaughtering our people and stop them from rapping our sisters and mothers. We don't want war. |

SeeWahala:Before you ask me for proof. Even after the civil war, the Ikwerre for example jubilated and took over the properties of the Igbos that fled back home to the east. An Igbo man interviewed also confirmed that they were migrants👇 https://twitter.com/AmodaOgunlere/status/1642939520852131840?t=2e7x_ip5aXLgV9gQBO-XCQ&s=19 1 Like 1 Share
