In nigeria i feel like a an immigrant ,hw can the so called one nigeria where in the constitution i have every right to reside anywhere it pleases me but no its not possible.
Germany lost in ww1 and they marginalized,hated and excluded germany in everything in europe
Germany took up to ww2 now what is happening, they lost and were more respected
Do u know that nigeria suffered military casualties than Biafra, they were losing the war they they switched to genocide, starvation, blockade, shooting at civilians in the name of one nigeria,
The amazing thing was how Biafra was almost slipping away as the the breakaway country is almost free with currencies, coat of arm,flag,national anthem, etc we were almost there

Ooooh yeah of course i know ibos love Yorubas soooo much in fact sometimes i get tired of How Ibos come here to praise us on a regular basis you know.Only God deserves those kind of adulations


And look Son i never said Biafra is not the machinery of Africa ooo. To me you even said the wrong thing, i think biafra is the machinery of the universe

Stay out of Biafra threads u wont
Just look at ur peoples population in this thread, carry them comot

Aigbofa:


Can you be more specific about these technological strides?
Can you provide factual examples of what exactly were made in Biafra?
South south today is litered with makeshift refineries, the type the Biafrans are claiming to be part of their achievements.
I am not interested in tales by the moonlight told by secessionists. I need facts.

Ojukwu! Add a vision and plan, but his brothers betrayed him. Hausa's add one tin dat made dem won, which d ibos don't hav which is unity

samsongbemisola:
Ojukwu was never a rebel, he did what a leader who loves his people will do. Did u know the way n manner Easterners were killed in 1966 because the North re retaliating the coup carried out some soildiers in January 1966 mainly ibo so the North feel it was an ibo coup cus the people who were killed were majorly Northerners. They realiated with the counter coup of july 1966 killing Agonyi Ironsi and every ibo soldier they can find. The people of the North followed the step of the Northern Soidiers by killing ibos, beheading them and sending their headless body to Enugu via train. Ojukwu had no choice than to ask all ibo descent to come home after series of failed negotiations he declared the state of Birafra. So don't call him a rebel read abt the coups in 1966 resulting to the civil war.

EDUCATE THE ILLITERATE THAT CLAIM THEY WENT TO SCHOOL... AFTER THE CIVIL WAR. WE CAME BACK AND STARTED BUYING THEIR LANDS IN LAGOS, KANU ,ABJ AND AND SO ON. THEY VISIT SOUTH EAST AND FEEL LIKE COMMITING SUICIDE BECOS OF THE EXPENSIVE STRUCTURES AN AVERAGE IGBO MAN PUT UP.
The more they hate us the more we grow.
THEY JST FORGOT OUR ROOTS. (ISERAL) ANY LAND WE ENTER WE DOMINATE AND POSSESS. U CAN'T CHANGE THAT, ITS A GIFT FROM GOD

ONE GOOD EXAMPLE

DedeNkem:
Igbos were far more advanced during the war, but had very limited resource.

They produced many sophisticated things including but not only armored vehicle, guns, bombs, mini war planes, etc. none of which Nigeria has ever produced today.

Biafra would have been a great country today if we had succeeded. I marvel whenever I read history books about the war. Igbos are indeed a great race & everybody knows this fact including the envious & diabolical yorubas. Whenever these folks hear anything about Biafra they will immediately arrive in drooves to obfuscate issues, smh at them. They are so scared that Igbos & the SS might seccede oneday & leave only them with their Hausa/fulani masters. There is a saying that nothing can stop an action whose time has come!!! Nigeria is an aberation, a celebration of mediocrity!!!

Was the guy saddan brother abi na ghadafi brother? But waite o,na so he was a coward?

OPCNAIRALAND:
Lol...i laugh tire when i saw what they called Ojukwu bunker. An old disused naturally formed cave their forefathers went into when Igala headhunters would foray into their territory looking for mugu to kidnap and sell to Hausa slave holders. Ojukwu put a concrete culvert to conceal the mouth of the hideout and now they call it the second wonder of the world.

Shyyte....where are my Ijebu brothers to show these mofos what a true structural monument looks like. Have yanmiri not heard about the walls in Yorubaland adopted into UNESCO world treasures?

Stop being ignorant for no reason. Leave the Igalas out of your discussion.

The chosen people ordained by God almighty!

Only Niger delta crude oil is all that circulates as grey matter in your brain.
God never ordained that you and the Igbo and by extension, Biafra, must belong to one country. Why are you afraid to run a country without the Igho and Biafra?

it is funny how we yorubas are always in a hurry to downplay the achievements of the southeastern. But truth be told, we must give it to this people for their resilience. sentiment unattached, of all the tribes in Nigeria, this is the one and only tribe that has what it takes in terms of human capabilities, intellectual endowment and sincerity of propose to develop our nation and this is made manifest anywhere they go. My brothers let's forget sentiments. before the war, Onitsha had the biggest market in black Africa. during the war this market was looted and burnt to the ground. even the host community (Onitsha) was bombed to the extent that there was no stone on a stone. but today the story is different. remember the monetary policy of 20 pounds each for Igbos who had their money in bank irrespective of the amount you once had in your bank account. Today Onitshans are battling for city space to erect their five/six storey edifices while our own Ibadan which use to be the jewel of the black continent is now known for its out-of-fashion rusted brown ceilings. The problem with we southwestern is that we hardly (not applicable to every one sha) travel outside our region and yet we are always in a hurry to make comparisons, analysis and draw conclusions while sitting comfortably in our conclaves. for the records, any from of comparison between us and the Igbos is a let-down on our part. we had an head start before them, we were going to school before them, in fact education was free for us in order to mass produce school attendees but today, they have not only catch up with us but have also overtaken us in the education ladder. whether we chose to say it or not. the Nigerian nation have not been fair to the man from the east.

It is good yoruba their new generation is witnessing the lies being told by their elders is still a shock to them with internet those lies is losing grounds by day.

Yoruba people are the most stupid people on earth. and their women are the dirtiest with smelly armpits and stretchmarks.

Ojukwu hiding in his bunker whilst he sent his people out on a "chicken run" with WWII rifles to confront the might of the federal troops.

After losing 3 million souls, he finally left his bunker where he and his toy soldiers had been feeding fat at the expense of his vulnerable folks who were dropping dead like flies, from hunger & kwashorko, in the middle of the night like a quintessential coward to flee to exile, in Abidjan.

Blackmail from your Chicken brain. What led to declaration of Biafra has gone worse now. Only that you are either a fool or you get some free monies from crude oil, hence you black mail Biafrans with your silly essay above.

Note: Ojukwu did the right thing to move away when the war was lost. Nigeria and its leaders then were fighting Biafra without observing International convetions on warfare, including Nigeria imposing blockades that starved more than a million Biafra children to death.

Nigeria would have killed Ojukwu if he stayed behind immediately after the war. And in warfare, a good General is that who fights to return to fight another day, not a General that fights to his death
May God punish your generations to come.

[b]In contemporary history, have you ever read or seen a head of state leading a charge at the war front? Was that Ojukwus job? Despite this, there are many instances where Ojukwu went to the war front, and at great risk to his own life. The Oguta battle and the invasion of Enugu are examples of this. Many of you people who say that Ojukwu led millions of Igbos to suffering and death never take a second to ask themselves why we Igbos are not pained by this. Why is it that the people who were led to their deaths in their millions still revere the name of Ojukwu even death? The answer is simple but can only be understood by people with a sense of self determination, something Yorubas don't have. The answer is why Nelson Mandela is a highly respected man even though he was once an ANC militant who led many to their deaths while fighting white minority rule. The answer is why Winston Churchill and Roosevelt are the most respected men of their countries despite leading the allies in a war that claimed over 50 million lives. The answer is that no price is too great to pay for freedom and sovreignty. Ojukwu stood up against Northern tyranny when other leaders like Awolowo chose to become 'boy-boy' to Gowon. Ojukwu fought with everything against an enemy that was vastly superior in size, far more well funded and equiped and still gave a good account of himself for 3 long years. How anyone can call such a man a coward is incredible. Only an incredibly stupid person would have expected Ojukwu to stay back and be slaughtered over a war he had already lost. Ojukwu may have lost, but we love him for having the backbone to stand and fight in the first place despite overwhelming odds. That is what shows the true mettle of a man. [/b]

Ojukwu Bunker Facts
Ojukwu Bunker is part of the National War Museum and its annex at Okpara Avenue, all in Umuahia, Abia State.
The bunker, constructed during the civil war after the fall of Enugu, was the subterranean office for the Biafran government. The premises belonged to Late Dr. Michael I. Okpara, the second Premier of Eastern Nigeria from December 17, 1959 to January 15, 1966.
The plan was drawn on April, 1968 by Frank Mbanefo Associates. Frank Mbanefo was from Onitsha, Anambra State. Structural design was done by Agbim and partners. Dr. Chuba Agbim was from Amaru Village in Nimo, Anambra State.
The superintendent who handled the workers was Late Mr. Laurence O. Okany from Ogidi, Anambra State. The construction was done by Engineer Joel Onyemelukwe of Nnewi-Ichi, Nnewi, Anambra State.
The bunker measures 26.9 feet deep, about 8 meters. It was done under 90 days, between April to June 1968. All the people involved in the construction of the bunker were less than 40 years old.

OK, good to know

new2020:

Yoruba fool.

igbo dullard

As a student of history, I wish to show just what these great people came/come against and yet thrive.

Okay, the incessant killings in the North will be glossed over so as to make this article not overly long. The civil war will also not be discussed.

However, post civil war, as I explained in my post MINORITY REPORT: THE SYSTEM IS RIGGED AGAINST YOU, the rich in Nigeria have major roots in the Indegenization decree of 1972 and 1977. I reminded how the banks gave people of other tribes, predominantly Hausas and Yorubas loans to by up companies owned by foreigners. Now imagine the Federal government forced Chevron to sell 51 percent of its shares and that Access Bank will give you loans to buy the shares. How rich will you be in a year? 5 Years? That is how many Yorubas and Hausas got to own UAC, all those Dunlop, Leventis, Cadbury etc.

Now while this was ongoing, Gowon told the Nigerian banks to give TOPS twenty naira to any Igbo man that had money in the bank before the war. That is, if you had 5 naira before the war, you will be given the 5 naira. But if you had a hundred naira, you get just twenty naira in full fulfilment of the banks duty to give you your money.

Ask yourselves "why would the banks give Igbos only twenty naira? Did the banks collapse? So why pay less than you were given?

So while the banks were giving loans to Hausa and Yorubas to buy Oyibo companies they did not build, Igbos were being cheated out of their rightful moneys.

Now not also that these people lost Houses and business across the land. It is safe to say that as at 1970/71. the richest Igbo had 20 naira that may be the equivalent of maybe one million.

Let us lok at how Dangote made his money. He Dagote (a great man and pride to Nigeria) has an uncle called Dantata who owned huge chunks of the groundnut pyramids of the 50's and 60's. He gave Dangte a loan and Dangote paid it back in record time. CLAP CLAP. The add that Dangote has had his "brothers" in government, from IBB to Abacha and Abdulsalaam. When they now agreed to democracy, he was rich enough to have funded Obasanjo and so government policies, be it monopoly afforded him for rice, sugar flour and of course a large share of subsidy etc ensures he is the wealthiest Nigerian. (note many had same opportunity but did not use it. We kowtow to Dangote's investment capabilities)

However, for the Igbo man, where will he see an uncle that will loan him money? The richest man in their family has how much as at then? So while Fani Kayode can inherit property of his father and grandfather and great grand father, a Chidi Cali cannot inherit anything from his grandfather who had business in Kano or even Port Harcourt. Neighbours have made his dad's storey building theirs, and even someone as educated as Saro Wiwa lived in an Igbo war emigrant house as his. (a sore point of the Niger Delta and Igbo Unity) WAEC building was Ojukwu's dad's building and like that building, thousands and the land with it....lands worth billions today were taken from Igbos and each and everyIgbo had tops 20 naira, destroyed homeland, stolen and destroyed wealth away from the east. ALso his brother is never president that will give him oil block or fuel lifting. Of 33, only one Igbo man and because he was in Obasanjo's good graces.

YET LOOK HOW PROUD THEY STAND TODAY!!! Look what they have achieved for themselves....FIRST GENERATION WEALTH...top second generation. From being unable to send their first sons to school so he could help look after the shop, to producing first class brains in all departments of modern learning.

So today, as you accuse Igbos of wanting their Biafra or of Baby Factory, or liking money and ready to do anything for money, remember that just forty years ago, while the banks were dashing your uncles loans to buy all the companies of Nigeria, it stole from the Igbos. Know that appointments have not favoured them. Note that they remain persecuted and many speak such ill and hate twoards a people forced by need to survive to be extra-aggressive towards their sustenance. Maybe if you took their history into consideration, you will not be so critical of them, but instead say "what a resilient people" and give God the glory that FOR NOW, we and such a great people are compatriots.

after your murderous Hausa/Fulani lords led a pogrom that claimed 30,000 Easteners in the north in 1966, Ojukwu had to declare Biafra and asked Easteners to return to safer home country.
Bastards like you tend to justify the pogrom by saying that the 1966 Nigeria Army coup which unfortunately killed more northern people than Igbos was an Igbo coupe.

Military coupes that had more Tiv soldiers than other Nigerian tribes have occurred since then with people from other tribes killed, did Nigeria government subsequently sanction pogrom against Tiv tribe?

That's a well stated fact. Yorubas' hatred the the Igbos is of astronomical proportion!

Shame on our parents for giving our generation education.

It was a futile effort.

Shame on us all.

now you are trying to start racism abi ...ok na
you igbos are stupid and ignorant your tribe is responsible for prostitution and 419 ,despite the civil war you pple started years ago (biafra war 1967-1970) where millions of nigerians died , even bokoharam didn't brake that record ....

When you visit Biafra museum in Umuahia, you will be marveled at the grandeur and advancement of Biafrans in the 60s. They were way ahead of their contemporaries and rivals. Still waiting to see inside of Nigerian bunker...

Silly boy, why would Nigerians need bunkers when most of the war was fought and won in Biafra.

Only the frightened and threatened would scurry around digging holes in the ground to hide like scared rats.

Isn't it ironic that while many of you children of hate being seduced and manipulated by Kanu's well rehearsed scam for Biafra; the walls of the said bunker is still being adorned with pictures of your worst nemesis; Gowon, Babangida and co, those officers who were directly responsible for serving you with the bitter taste and pain of defeat.

In short that picture you and the OP are foolishly celebrating, without looking at its implication, is an epitome of the current gullibility and culpability of Igbo youth mindset to easy manipulation based on irrational hatred; here you are, indirectly celebrating your conquerors (without realising it) while in the same breath shouting fire and brimstone at the behest of a scam artist over the repackaged false dream of Biafra that had long been dead and buried along with its founder, Ojukwu.

Yet some of you (ignorant gullible puppies like yourself) have the audacity to call others (especially the Yorubas) slaves.

Aigbofa:


Where were the foundries where all these heavy equipment were made? The truth is that Ojukwu bought a lot of old and scrapped military hardware which he tried to fix or out of which he made some funny contraptions.
Biafra did not make jack.

Did you not know that Biafra was blockaded by the Navy


So how was Ojukwu able to import heavy machinery
