You are talking trash as usual.

Ironsi never dissolved the regions and their autonomy, he merely united the federal service. It was Gowon and Awo that dissolved the regions. killed their autonomy and created anomalies called states.

It was Obasanjo who propagated the evil Land use decree.

How exactly is that the fault of Nzeogwu or Ironsi? You are insincere, you must be a Yoruba person, that's their trademark.

I dare you to mention one falsehood that Radio Biafra propagate?
Eediot, I think you're behind time or brain dead to think Ironsi wasn't the one that destroy our true federalism!
That fool, Ironsi didn't only destroy our regionalism but had the stup!d audacity to appoint his foolish ibo kinsmen to be governing all regions after the murder of Balewa, Ahmadu Bello, Akintola et al.
Eediot, tell me what business does that fool, Ojukwu has, governing the northern region after the murder of Ahmadu Bello by ibo coup? The hausas were even too slow with their progrom!

You are not making any sense. In Biafra we will produce thousands of Phyno Okocha and Achebe and the rest.

They are products of the Igbo society, not Nigeria.

lol... What i see is mere speculations. What are the plans, blueprints on ground to ascertain the possibility of your claims? To the best of my knowledge, non exist.

Even in the bible, the isrealite saw signs that God was with them before they embarked on Journey.

Only a fool will discard certainty for uncertainty.

If truly it 'wil' be as you postulated, by now the east would have been far ahead of other regions. That utopia only exist in cranials of dreamers.

You don't need to disintegrate before you progress. Go to Imo nothing. Anambra, the so called japan of africa, nothing... Abia worse. With the sort of news emanating from Imo and Ania, is this how the imaginary utopia of biafra will be ran or are these states mentioned ruled by a yoruba or hausa man in place of ignos as governors?

If I were the bastard called Nnamdi Kanu, I would rather solicit for funds to be used to develop the east instead buying arms and ammunitions so as to become the dubai of current world in the future so that when we decide to go our ways, the world will node and say yes, they deserve it.

Nothing of that sort.

Hey... Don't feed me the 'we need to disintegrate before we develop that's blatant rubbbish and an excuse.

Awo the power hungry ewedu eater whose power lust ultimately led him to suicide, was the same person who was there when Gowon dissolved the regions,and created anomalies called states probably it was his( Awo) idea, just like his evil starvation policy. And yet you want us to believe the Yorubas wanted regionalism? Lol! You were too blinded! by your greed to partake in the Eastern region oil wealth that you quickly aided Gowon to dissolve the regions, and created land use decree act.

The war aim and (final) solution properly
speaking of the entire problem, is to
discriminate against the Igbos and in their
own interest. Such discrimination would
include above all the detachment of those
oil-rich territories in the Eastern Region,
in addition, the Igbos' freedom of
movement would be restricted, to prevent
their renewed penetration into other parts,
leaving any access to the sea to the
Igbos, is quite out of the question,
"(Federal Nigerian Minister speaking to E.
C. Schwarzenback, Swiss Review of
Africa, February 1968).



We achieved all those despite existing in a country with such an evil policy against us enshrined as part of its DNA.

Against all odds, we are ahead.

Think of what we can achieve without such evil policies and mechanizations against us. It's truly limitless what we can achieve in Biafra free of the negative influences and draw backs of the Arewa Odua.

Now, you know why the shout and clamour for Biafra will never end, as long as the Igbo continue to exist.

Something you have to understand is that Biafra really doesn't need all of the above to succeed!

All that it requires to put them to flight is one artillery barrage and they all hop on the next flight overseas.
Biafra will actually be funded by biafrans inside Nigeria and overseas doing casual things to the surprise of many.

However, let's pray we don't go down the lane of war because in this era of drone technology, no part of Nigeria will be spared the carnarge.
Armed drones or recreational drones loaded with explosives will hit several parts of the nation and indiscriminately too.
That is a scary proposition. People always glancing up apprehensively not knowing where the next explosive laden drone or missile will drop from.

Can you tell us what Awolowo told Gowon the SW will do if he allows the SE to secede?
If you can, then you have ur answer

You people are insufferable. In response, I'll paste here Awolowo's famous speech in response to the Midwest Invasion on August 12th, 1967. You people should leave the Yorubas out of your Biafra agitation. I repeat that our destinies are not intertwined.




The Speech of Chief Obafemi Awolowo in response to the Midwest Invasion on August 12th, 1967

The recent coup in the Mid-West has been followed by a massive propaganda offensive from Enugu, which I considered it my duty to counter.

The Yorubas have been called upon to rise up in arms now and liberate themselves from what the Enugu radio termed the Hausa-Fulani domination. Even Yoruba soldiers have been asked by the Enugu propagandists to desert the Nigerian Army and report to the rebel Headquarters in Enugu or Benin.

From the inception of the country, the Yorubas have consistently stood for the unity of Nigeria, and for the equality of status for each of the many and diverse national groups in the country, regardless of territorial or population size.

The Yorubas have never set out to dominate others, but have always resisted, with all the energy in them any attempt however slight or disguised, by others to dominate them. They believe in the Federal Union of Nigerian peoples, and in complete self determination for all the national units in the land.

It is for these causes that they fought valiantly in the past and will fight now and in the future. Indeed it is for these causes that they must now be ready to resist any attempt by the rebel forces from the East and the Mid-West to violate their territory and subjugate them.

Some people, possibly well meaning, have suggested, and others evilly-disposed are already trying to exploit this false suggestion to win Yoruba support for a disloyal cause, that I am on the side of Ojukwu who represents the Ibo people, and opposed to General Gowon who represents the Northern peoples. Those who make this suggestion also hold the view that the interests of the Yoruba people are better served, by aligning themselves with the North.

The truth is that, in the present contest, I am neither on the side of Ojukwu nor on that of General Gowon as representatives of the Ibos and Northern peoples respectively. For on thing, Ojukwu does not seem to me to represent the best interests of the Ibos; nor does General Gowon appear to me to be the agent of the Northern section of our Federation. For another, I am absolutely and irrevocably committed to the side of Nigeria, and of the complete self-determination, autonomy, and unity of the Yoruba people and each of the national groups in the country, within the context of a Nigerian Union.

Futhermore, I firmly believe that the best interests of the Ibos, the Yorubas, the Hausas, and other ethnic groups in the country, will be served in a reconstructed and reconstituted united Nigeria. A Nigeria so reconstituted and reconstructed as to make it impossible for any ethnic group ever again to assay to lord it over the others, or to be in a position effectively to incite division and disaffection among the members of the other national groups. Indeed, a Nigeria so reconstituted and reconstructed that every Nigerian citizen will be able, and be consciously enabled by the Governments of the land, to live and move freely and happily in any part of the Federation, and play an equal role in the affairs of the country.

It is imperative, therefore, that the unity of Nigeria must be preserved by any means which the prevaliling circumstances dictate. And, of course, the best judge of what the prevailing circumstances warrant is the Federal Military Government, and not the many jarring voices of despair which now clamour for audience in and outside Nigeria.

I have no doubt that after the present rebellion shall have been overcome, a new Nigeria, with the existing boundries remaining inviolate, will emerge, and that the Yoruba people will retain their liberty of action and enjoy equality of status in the new dispensation.

To these ends, therefore, all Yoruba people, particularly those in the Western and Lagos States which now face the threats of invasion by the rebels from the East and the Mid-West, must not only be as vigilant as ever, but must also lose no time and spare no efforts in giving every conceivable support to the Federal troops in defence of their homeland, and of the Fatherland.

They must do more. They must continue to give support and loyalty to the Federal Government in the prosecution of the present Military operations, so that the rebellions in the Eastern and Mid-Western States may be brought to a swift end, and the honour, integrity, and unity of Nigeria fully restored.

D west will support NOBODY but those they can benefit from, as long as corrupt leaders are here, let's face d facts, as long as USA n BRItain can make money from NG, they won't involve demselves, if kanu has contacts, so does buhari n co....... Russia, isreal, china, at d end of d day don't expect drones, just expect a few rifles. Except kanu has SERIOUS Political relevance on d league of Ojukwu (respect!) Or above, no serious weapon will fall on his hand, Boko n isis hv their muslim brothers worldwide donating, What do you hv, even 2 billion naira cannot buy drone o.

Up until the Mid-West invasion (and subsequent botched invasion of Lagos/SW by the Biafrans), the SW was prettymuch undecided on whom to support or whose side to take. But the invasion/coup made it clear to the Yorubas the sinister intentions of the Biafrans which was manifested in their decision to invade our lands. From thereon we took our destinies in our own hands. Again I repeat, our destinies are not intertwined.

You all have turned my thread to a bashing thread. Not nice at all.

This is the lack of respect that keeps drawing this country backwards
warn your ibo brother, yorubas are naturaly unprovocative and insultive in nature but could be defenceive and protective.

You are talking trash as usual.

Ironsi never dissolved the regions and their autonomy, he merely united the federal service. It was Gowon and Awo that dissolved the regions. killed their autonomy and created anomalies called states.

It was Obasanjo who propagated the evil Land use decree.

How exactly is that the fault of Nzeogwu or Ironsi? You are insincere, you must be a Yoruba person, that's their trademark.

I dare you to mention one falsehood that Radio Biafra propagate?

It is unnecessary to start this argument.a system was in place and Igbos derailed it.read ur history books with a clear open mind.

Let me inform you that i don't care if Igbos get biafra or not..they are not my people and so their wellbeing is not rily my concern..my concern is when Igbos decide to tag Ikwerres along..

FYI, Nigeria offers Igbos alot more compared to what their 5 igbo states + anioma can offer..learn to navigate Nigeria and exploit the system...but if ure planning to leave, prepare to fight again, and yet again, alone.

my brother,the ibo intrest from the genesis is to hijack the power and surpress,oppres other tribe.to them they are wise than any tribe in africa, but to God be the glory they became least,last as a result of praud and agradisment,hatered.i.e zik was calling himself zik of africa, ironsi was carying corocodie up and down.

Lol! And you think Ndiigbo care about your useless Ikwerre? You lots are of no significance to the Igbo nation, you have little or no human resources, no one gives a rat about Ikwerres, infact I don't even know how and why you ended up dragging the Ikwerres into this thread.

For your info, Igbos offer more to Nigeria than Nigeria could ever offer us, we know this, that's why we are eager to dump Nigeria. If it were the other way round, you won't be hearing a drop about Biafra.

Stats show that Ndiigbo had made the most out of Nigeria more than any other Nigerian group including your insignificant Ikwerre lol, despite anti Igbo policies of this union, and it's on that basis that we know for certain that we are better off without Nigeria. Chew on that.


You are a jellyfish. A system was in place, I tried to remove it, you killed me for doing that, and accused me of being greedy, but you ended up using that same system and even adopted more things to make the system more evil.

But in your cholesterol clogged brain cells, it is my fault that you adopted and went on to corrupt the system, I am greedy, but you holy one choose and adopted a supposedly greedy system.

You now see why Nnamdi call the country and it's occupants Zoo and animals? Your reasoning capacity is almost zero.

Kagawash07:

Eediot, that fool, Ironsi already destroyed our regionalism before Gowon took power and you are talking of states creation?
Do you eediots even know the meaning of regionalism at all? What a dunce I've been discussing with!
You mean before the state creation, an ondo man doesn't know he's an ondo man or kaduna man doesn't know he's a kaduna man? What a goat!
Inshort, Gowon only created states to undo the evil that fool, Ironsi made but it was too late!
And whether you hit that empty flat head of yours on the wall, it doesn't change the fact that Awolowo's doctor report stated he died of a heart related disease at 78yrs, same age with that fool, Ojukwu who died without archieving anything!

Mpama, Ironsi never dissolved the regions, he merely united the civil service. It was Gowon and Awo greed to partake in the Eastern region oil wealth that drove them into creation of anomalies called states, while totally dis regarding the Wilkins report demand of Eastern minorities. It was the creation of Gowon and Awo dysfunctional states as conduits to siphon Eastern oil wealth that instigated the mad rush by subsequent Odua-Arewa rulers to continue creating more dysfunction non viable states up North, and to sustain such states, the crude wealth of the Eastern minorities were taken from them by a dubious decree that turned their lands into free for all lands.

Your Awo and Gowon greed created states that was the genesis of expensive governance we are having today, they paved way for land use decree that was needed to finance non viable states up North and then as more and more non Viable states were created, more and more of Eastern minorities oil wealth was needed to finance them, so the derivation formula for them kept shrinking and shrinking until it was almost zero.

But guess whose fault it is? Nzeogwu and Ironsi according to SW people. Lol!
