The Match For Biafra: The Making Of The First West African Spring! by Nobody: 9:18pm On Nov 08, 2015 |
This article was not written by me its author is unknown to me it was shared to me by another. A TWIST IN THE IPOB ONE MILLION MAN MARCH: Watching the protest organized by the Indigenous people of Biafra yesterday on channels television,some thing caught my attention. I saw banners bearing the pictures of Nnamdi Kanu and James Ibori with inscriptions like " release Nnamdi Kanu and James Ibori" , " Release our Heroes" and " We are tied of the British fraud". Another interesting part of this protest on the Niger bridge axis is that the protest started all the way from Agbor in Delta state through Asaba to Onitsha on the 6th and as at 10pm yesterday 7th they were already at Awka the capital of Anambra state heading to Enugu. For those of you who know the antecedence of James Onanefe Ibori,would agree with me that he is one man who commands alot of respect like Alamieghiesia in the Niger delta and if his brothers have, decided to join the IPOB family to fight for,justice then Buhari and his government is in for more troubles. I even heard the PPRO of police Anambra state saying on a national TV that the protest is overwhelming but so far it has been peaceful. [b]On the Rivers state axis,it was recorded that the Movement of the Survival of Ogoni People (MOSOP) have also joined the protest with banners bearing pictures of Nnamdi Kanu and Ken Saro Wiwa. [/b]This was due anger arising from the neglect the Ogoni people have suffered over the years and the recent seizure of an art work " Ogoni Bus" donated to Nigeria in memory of Ken Saro Wiwa which was seized by the Nigerian customs at the Lagos port. Listening to Radio Biafra yesterday afternoon,I heard callers from Akwa Ibom and Bayelsa with funny names like " Commander shoot and stand", " Black scorpion" etc calling to issue orders to their followers to return to the creeks. Women are not left out as I,also heard women calling in to give information on the movement of security agents and their experiences in the protest and how they had to move through swampy areas to join in the protest in Bayelsa state, some of them even got wounded but still continued after they were treated. I even heard security agents who called as anonymous giving out tips on how to beat the security agencies and to avoid arrest,some of them suggested to the deputy director of Radio Biafra Uche Mefor to alert the protesters to always move in large numbers as with that it will be difficult for the security operatives to arrest any of them. The twist here is that Radio Biafra has gone beyond Nnamdi Kanu,it has giving birth to a struggle for survival, it has reawakened the consciousness of the marginalized people in Nigeria and Buhari has giving impetus to it with his 97% and 5% dichotomy, lopsidedness in his appointments so far and body language. The arrest and continued detention of Nnamdi Kanu may bring Nigeria to its knees and if that happens,two things are involved which I see as the break up of this fake contraption called Nigeria as was predicted by the USA or an acceptable peace which will be achieved through dialogue and negotiations. Whichever way it goes ,Buhari will be the loser and Nnamdi Kanu and Nigerians as winners. For those of you who still think Nnamdi Kanu represents only the Igbo race,think again because the happenings in recent times says otherwise. Nigeria under Buhari is seating on a time bomb and Buhari is carrying the burden of guilt which may soon overwhelm him if proper care is not taking. Nnamdi Kanu represents the voiceless women being raped all over the south by Fulani herdsmen, he represents the people whose land have been polluted by the IOC's with no means of livelihood, he represents those who are murdered in cold blood in plateau and other north central states, he represents all the people who have suffered one form of maltreatment in Nigeria and Nnamdi Kanu is now a movement and you can not stop that movement by arresting Nnamdi Kanu. 17 Likes |

When will the ibo people get sense? You can never find a Rich
ibo man doing his business "jeje" in Nigeria (His original
country) agitate for this so called Biafra. I don't know why the
ibo masses are so dumb and ret.arded. You'll would just end
up losing your lives like "suya". Don't you learn from history?
Even the devil incarnate called ojukwu was too cowardly to
take a bullet from the Nigerian Army and just die for what he
"believed" in,he was even too cowardly to commit suicide. He
has to run with his tail in between his legs like a fowl beaten by
the rain,leaving his so called "Biafra citizens" at the mercy of
the bullets of the Nigerian army. I know this mumu Kanu,that's
agitating for the same thing again in 2015,already has his
family/families overseas,calling on the dullard ibo masses( that
don't have a kobo to travel out of the country when the war
starts) to come fight for Biafra. Its like saying the
Comanches,Apaches,and the Red indians in USA to rise against
USA for their freedom/independence,its gonna be massacre. I
foresee another ibo massacre. I just pity the fools who will
stand behind this stvpid Kanu guy. This Biafra Nonsense should
be wiped off the mind of the ibo people,because its never
gonna happen,not in a billion years. Let's avoid another
massacre and starvation/malnutrition again!!! A word is
enough for the wise. 1 Like |

The people that matters in Igboland, i mean the reals one that can determine the fate of Biafra are already absorbed into d unity of Nigeria, i bet people like Tony Enumelu, Uzor Kalu and the CEO of Diamond bank and the rest of them who av investments in other parts of the region than their homeland will never bliv in Biafra. All i see in these protests are the assemblage of touts and not people who av good idea on how to secede. The world is just laughing at them. 2 Likes |

Perfect Noblezone Usman Dan Fodio had a terrible nightmare In that dream , he was made to realise that his empire will last only for 200 years In the 70s An emir also had that dream which caused the government to move the capital to Abuja 2015 is the beginning of the final stage of the collapse of Fulani domination Can you see what happened in Taraba especially how Buhari tried to fulanized Taraba These are factors that will bring down their power in Nigeria I only pity gullible Yorubas who can't read the handwriting on the wall. 9 Likes |

There is no march for Biafra. This is a PDP sponsored post election violence and Government should show no mercy to anybody implicated. It should be death penalty. |
