Talk about what u know bro.

It means you are not up to date with news of event.

This guy have been arrested by DSS and released. His parents are at home here in Nigeria and have been harassed over times by DSS.

He is just doing his job

Which job is he doing?

Trying to send innocent igbo men to early grave because he can't control his emotions? An emotional man can't lead people.

No one should listen to this Biafra chants, its devilish and can lead to far more deadly consequences than what we've been experiencing so far.

War is what the Igbo people can not afford to go into, whoever that is supporting Biafra should get ready to line his family up for the war ahead, I can afford to lose any family member because of somebody's stupidity, my uncle that died in Nigeria/Biafra is yet to be given a proper burial and someone is here ranting about how he will bring another war.

I stay in Osha have seen how your so called MASSOB act, they flog the old men and women, someone that could even be their grand parents and they claim to be doing all that in the name of "Biafra"

If this is what Biafra have to offer, Biko I will rather pledge to Nigeria, Nnamdi will be in London with his family shouting "Biafra" some stupid peeps will be in east preparing for war, am not willing to make the mistake my forefathers made with Ojukwu.

Stop all these, my friend.

Nnamdi Kanu can only lead igbos to many more years of suffering and poverty. A man that doesn't know the direction of his life is trying to incite hate in the minds of igbos.

Know something, Biafra might come but when you have substantially planned your way. Not fighting

I am very safe here in Chitown.

Some things are done based on oath, for example, the current head of this struggle won't take any leadership post when Biafra comes.
Biafrans were republicans before white men came, you know of that, we not dictatorial in nature.

One guy was asking me why Abia people left T.A Orji to ruin the state, and I showed him a video of Aba people wanting to stone him to death, they had to radio the CPS nearby to bring in fighter copter and soldiers were everywhere, that of course, is the Nigerian factor, if they had allowed them deal with him their, the next occupant will know how to make things work.

One proposed method which everyone agreed, is to adopt the Chinese method of fighting corruption and bad leaders, if u are a leader adn found guilty of corruption, u get executed. Simples!

Nnamdi Kanu and his Radio Biafra are a product of serial governmental failure, systematic prejudice, gross sectarian violence and territorial neglect spanning over 40yrs.

The best way to silence him is good governance. Nothing will immortalize him like arresting him or killing him. And that is what he wants.

You have to kill the Tutsis, they're cockroaches.'
'All those who are listening, rise so we can fight for our Rwanda. Fight with the weapons you have at your disposal: those who have arrows, with arrows, those who have spears, with spears. We must all fight.'
'We must all fight the Tutsis. We must finish with them, exterminate them, sweep them from the whole country. There must be no refuge for them.'
'They must be exterminated. There is no other way.'


These were the kind of quotes attributed to George Rutaganda of the Interahamwe Militia, during the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda by the Hutu. The onslaught of his campaign on Radio Télévision Libre des Mille Collines spearheaded and encouraged the genocide of over half a million people in approximately 100 days; killings mostly perpetrated with machetes and clubs by ordinary civilians who were friends, neighbours, and relatives.

It is said that the sporadic way the genocide was carried out was made possible by Rutaganda’s fiery hate dripping words on radio. Words can be encouraging and inspiring. Words can arouse pleasure. They also can be loathing and savagely fierce to carry out agendas from a hate bridled mind. And it is very easy to gain followership of such hate causes in Africa because there is a considerable population of the mentally underdeveloped that seeks out leaders who champion ideologies on the primitive fundamentals of ethnic bigotry.

This is Africa’s reality! And our leaders realize this!

Nigeria is no stranger to genocide. The preceding events that led to the Nigerian/Biafran civil war 1967-1970 was heralded and entrenched in genocide. Still massacres occur today between dissenting groups across Nigeria with an added edge of religious supremacy. The Jos crisis and the continuous Boko Haram menace still encroaches on the fragile tethers of the nation.

We are blessed with a very large population of intellectually deficient people who would ride on the coattails of a supposed leader’s ideology or fiery speech without a moment of questioning, self reflection and content analysis.

This of which has been strategically enforced by the Nigerian government to keep the public illiterate by laying education to rest in perfectly designed coffins of dilapidated schools so that the average Nigerian is decrepit to knowledge, and also decrepit to what entails as social and economic development. Hence his reliance on tribal skirmishes.

This substantial illiterate population poses a threat to Africa as a whole and we need to be wary of this lot. They cause as much danger to the society as the people who have criminally imposed themselves as leaders. The reason is, they are more likely to take up arms to kill their neighbours in a bid to impress their masters based on religious and ethnic ideologies. All it takes is for a lunatic to inspire them to wreak havoc.

It is no wonder why Boko Haram can spread its tentacles and amass dedicated recruits in Nigeria. It is no rocket science why it was very easy for a community in ALUU to lynch four boys on the dictates of their community chief. The population is mentally primitive.

Freedom of speech must be allowed but freedom of speech veering on ethnic and religious supremacy must be destroyed in Nigeria. This is not the 60's, where political correctness was still in its infancy. This is 2015.

It is left for the Nigerian youth to separate himself from the legacy of hatred inherited and perpetrated by these men and women called leaders or ‘elder statesmen’ whose political and cultural differences in ideology are sentimentally laced, garnished and cemented in ethnic and religious prejudices with the sole aim of inciting ‘our’ illiterate population that cannot discern right from wrong - a population that is ready to take up arms to kill in service to their puerile warlords.

You started listening of late. For example, if Nigeria says, let's get to discussion table, things will change.

and there are concrete plans after Biafra comes, I know u heard the part about the resource control, the building of Biafra for 75 years, and the one of not depending at all in oil. Funny enough he read Political Economics, he has a consulting firm that has worked with many top elite countries.
and IPOB are made up of learned men, not street touts, if u want street touts, go to MASSOB, u won't be disappointed.
So far the method is working.
So far many countries have pledged support, even Indian Prime Minister sent a memo recently to Nigerian Govt, because he saw Biafrans in front of India Parliamentary house on 31st of May, he got to ask them their agitations, which they put in writing and was documented.

U only need to let the world know about Biafra, soon this government will be made to look silly before U.N and world powers....nwanne relax.

As one of your colleague suggested, we will be the first to be killed in cold blood.

Whao, God's blessings on you. You make the most sense. The brainstems clamoring for war are losers in life . No successful being will ever wish for war especially the one you can't win. Diversity makes a country stronger. United we stand, divided we fall. Nigeria has a long way to go and all Nigerians regardless of tribe should help make her better for the benefit of all Nigerians.

Lol..

You are running after rats inside a Burning building.

So you think that when these Vagabonds go ahead with their plans, all of a sudden all South Easterners would become super wealthy and live in a utopia filled with 24hrs Electricity, pipe borne water, e.t.c and that nobody in the new Biafra would own private jets or everybody would own one or what? What has private jet got to do with anything? Do you know the number of Nigerians the legitimately own Private jets? Or do you think every individual who owns one is corrupt? Please rid yourself of those mentality of poverty. Because the neck thing would be that those who are driving SUVs would be the new target, then those wear gold necklaces, or those wearing designer outfit.. Success and Wealth is not a taboo.

Come to Awka next weekend and I would be burying my Grandfather, the last victim of the Biafran War from my family. My Grandfather would be going into the ground with a Bullet still lodged inside him. He was a Biafran Soldier and Ojukwus ADC. My Parternal Grandmother died two years ago.. She was a victim of the Biafran War as well, she had to bury 4 of her sons in one day after a Nigerian Airforce bombing raid of Aba.

I was not born during the Biafran war, but hearing my Grandparents talk about war coupled with what I have seen with my eyes has made me realize that War is never the answer. I am from the South East of Nigeria, married from the South East of Nigeria, Own Properties worth hundreds of millions in the South East of Nigeria and I know that should War happen, my family and I and many others like us would definitely lose it all (FOR THE SECOND TIME IN UNDER 60 years) and should have to start all over again from scratch. Call me selfish but this is the sad truth.

The Igbos calling for war and supporting this Lunatic called Nnamdi Kanu have not fully appreciated the implications of War. In War, Women which includes mothers, Wives, Daughters and babies get rap-ed freely. Those who would be raped are our own daughters not those of the Yorubas nor Hausas that the war was meant to destroy. The Houses, farmlands, vehicles, properties, infrastructure and more that would be destroyed would be ours, not those of the enemies we want to fight. The future that would be wrecked would be ours because our Men who wouldn't be dead would be Injured, handicapped, in Prisons-of-War or just plain destitute. Our Sons from age 6 and above would become Child Soldiers, exposed to bloodshed at an early age and would lose their innocence and childhood whilst they are children, assuming they survive the war. In wartime, the Man with the Gun is President, Governor and everything. Crime and Criminals become the order of the day. Life as we know it flies out the window. All these to help another group of people attain power to control us.

The aftermath of a war does not even clear up immediately combat ceases. The South East is still not fully healed up from the last war in 1967. All over Rivers State, properties belonging to South Easterners are still there under the name "Abandoned Properties". Politically speaking, the relevance of the south East post-1967 has still not fully recovered. In fact, the South-South has even advanced further politically than the South East since after that war.

Things to note; The issues that plagued Ojukwus in 1967 are child's play compared to what any uprising in the South-East would face today.. now the Nigerian Army is better equipped than they were in 1967, better trained than they were in 1967. The Ogbunigwe cannot win you a war in 2015.. This time around, the Airforce has acquired Drones, Better jets, etc. The Nigerian Navy would block off the water ways in a matter of 1 week if the call comes through and once more the same shiit of 1967 is on again.


To those saying its can insult to call Nnamdi Kanu a Terrorist, maybe you would do well to grab a copy of the Nigerian Constitution and a Dictionary and find out the meaning of sedition and the penalty for treason.


Should a war breakout in the South East, the biggest losers would be us, the South Easterners.

This foolishness must be arrested before is spirals fully out of control..



Finally, I will leave you with a food for thought: When you become a parent, if your response to an issue or dispute between your Children and family members is not for one child to go fight and kill another child, then Violence and war should never be a choice in conflict resolution. Find other means that are not as lazy and unproductive as war.. Also check history:: Less than 3 Nations the world over has ever gotten independence nor cessation from war.
Thanks...Honestly I don't see why Igbos need lecturing such as you have done here. Anyone with reasonable intelligence would know these things already. Maybe there is a low IQ strain among the Igbo population that makes them susceptible to such mindlessness as initiating wars they will most certainly lose. The place is landlocked. They have no standing army. No major stockpiles of modern weapons. No airforce, nothing. Yet they are talking war. I just don't understand it. What are their grievances even? Igbos today are the most prosperous group in Nigeria. Their businesses are thriving everywhere. They even build motor vehicles now, with Innoson etc. Their cities and villages are filled with mansions, and are rapidly improving in infrastructure...witness the transformation of Enugu in recent years for instance. They own the factories that produce goods and make billions for their owners and region. War will simply destroy all they've achieved and set them back another 50 years. I suspect that Kanu guy is just a foreign sponsored agent sent to cause mayhem and destroy the Igbos. Perhaps the imperialists can't stomach further Igbo advancement?
