RisingSun1: Bros in Nigeria any dumbass could be president talk less of elders. It worries to hear people say why is Nigeria in awkward predicament politically, socially and economically. The fool from Port Harcourt will be one of those empty-headed Nigerians who jump onto wagon in support of Ken Saro-Wiwa. Yet the jackass also will forget the doctrine espoused by Wiwa which he said that "Self-determination is a God-given right which should be exercised by the people should they want it". 3 Likes |

The headline is mischevious. Rather than use a nebulous term like Rivers Elders, the title should have been 'We Are Not Biafrans, Kalabari Elders". The Nations should stop these attempt at using a single groups voice to generalize on behalf of others. 3 Likes 3 Shares |

belabela:Biafra army never kill or attack anybody who are from present day SE/SS, its hausa/fulani soldiers that kill them. Biafra soldiers dont kill or attack innocent civillians whether they eastern,western or northerner. But hausa/fulani soldier want kill any living thing that exist in SE/SS because they are animals. They kill both old and young,men or women and u want us to be togather? 3 Likes |

Klinee: That's interesting. So who did Biafra soldiers kill in Benin, Ore, etc? You talk about war like a child. Apart from collateral damage anyone who is not your friend is your enemy during war. Who is hausa fulani soldier? You speak like one without any understanding of the Nigerian state. Major General Gowon was from the Northern region - He led the Nigerian war as the head of state he is not a fulani or hausa man but a Plateau man and of the christian religion. Olusegun Obasanjo who the Biafra army finally surrendered to was a field commander during the war - he is not a fulani/hausa man. It's a shame that when somebody has a northern/arabic name and is from one of the states of the former northern region people who think like you call them hausa/fulani. It is like calling anyone from the old eastern region Ibo. There are yorubas, hausas, fulanis, gwaris, nupes, igalas, Tiv, Birom, etc - actually many tribes in the old northern region. 8 Likes |

robosky02:Exactly. Let Biafra be by choice. I respect the decision of others who don't want to be included. The same way I want others to respect my decision if I opt for Biafra. Life is a matter of choice, they shouldn't be any compulsion to accept something you do not want. I accept the decision of the elders as regards their people, however, let them also accept the decision of my own people. 2 Likes |

Biafra will only be attractive to Igbo Rivers localities such as Omuma, Etche, Oyigbo etc. But when you look closely all of them are not united in this quest. Core Rivers ethnic groups such as the Okrikans, Kalabari, Ogoni, Ikwerre etc have completely distanced themselves from this agitation. Rivers people have a right to choose sides and they are choosing Nigeria. Why condemn them for not fighting for a lost cause. If any ethnic Rivers person speaks to an elder that lived through the Biafran war they will tell you that the Igbo man's quest for self determination will be at the expense of the Rivers man as it was during the war. So please stop packing your buses and entering Rivers state with this Biafra nonsense. We don't want!!! 2 Likes |

Even leaders in other South South states like Akpabio and Ibori have spoken and they command a very large following ethnically and Politically. That means no Delta state no Rivers state and no Akwa Ibom state. Soon you'll hear from Cross Rivers and Edo. That means your only hope of South South inclusion will be Bayelsa. Once Goodluck see's his destabilization has run it's course he will dump the Igbos' just as he did when he captured all their votes and did nothing for them once he got elected. 2 Likes |
