CSTR2:Oga Ika's ancestry is traced to the Bini, so is the Kwales and other groups. They still maintain they aren't Igbos and you are here forcing them. They didn't support Biafra 8 Likes 1 Share |

2." When Ojukwu declared is Biafra, he was Governor of Eastern state that exclude Rivers, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom and Cross river. Old Rivers and Old Cross river were already created by Gowon". You're not a history student. Your ignorance is alarming! Always carry out research before you post in a public like this. Biafra was not only SE as your post is indirectly saying. The number 2 in command was not also from SE. Don't forget that some of your Yoruba soldiers fought in Biafran side just as Ike Nwachukwu fought in Nigerian side. 2 Likes |

CSTR2: What is this one saying? Important roads, hospitals, and some government artifacts in Akwa-Ibom and Cross river are named after some notable sons and daughters of Akwa/Cross. In fact, you'd see more Igbo monuments in Lagos than in Akwa/Cross or even anywhere else in SS for that matter. That is why I don't know why you Igbos hate Yorubas so much. Those people are very accommodating. No Igboish sounding name can even dare to vie for ordinary councilor in the SS (minus Delta and Rivers upland areas) Also when mentioning notable Akwa/Cross sons and daughters, nowhere will you hear of that Effiong guy. And yes we have a lot of respected men and families in Akwa/Cross. 11 Likes 1 Share |

TonyeBarcanista:Yes with majority names like ifeanyi okowa, chukwuka, onyeka, olisa e.t.c , i am sure that is very bini in nature. ![]() Of course, they were some benin settlers who mixed with the majority igbo ethnics there. But then it is a still majority igbo enclave. 5 Likes |

Mcowubaba:Thank you so much bro, SS has all the capacities to form a separate state, all igbo speaking communities must not be in BIAFRA, the 5 igbo states big enough to form an independent state. Ernest shoneken was interim president for three months and today he gets all the respect of a formal head of state, but Nwafor orizu was also an interim president for the same three months in this country, no body remembers anything about him ,and am sure some you have not heard this name but make your research. And you tell me this marriage is fair, BIAFRA will come like a WIND, it may not be now but sure it must come as long as it still remains in every igbo mans hearth |

Sweetlemon:Still tends to the aftermath of the civil war politics. Effiong was the most influential in akwa-cross area at the time of civil war. He was the leader. Ofcourse, i am not surprised if there are not monuments of him there. Post Civil war politics was at play. How many monuments does ojukwu even have in the SE? 6 Likes 1 Share |

CltrAltDel: even tho you made some good points here, it's online which means every and anyone can find it, this isn't a secret, Encyclopaedia britannica is well known, if the people agitating for Biafra and the likes Ojukwu and co who fought and died for it are educated enough to know these facts, i am not igbo and don't really know the details but if people having been talking, agitation for an independence for this long, trust me, they would know the basic facts of their roots, at least i would. |

ARIZONA123:Honestly I am appaled at Afam's reasoning as well as other a few other Igbos that seek for cheap popularity cum political correctness. Majority of Nigerians are suffering from delusion of grandeur, they say things want to believe even if it flies in the face of logic. If Biafra is not popular among the Igbos & some others in the ND, then why is it a mass movement?? From Aba to Obigbo, Ph, Owerri, Umahia, Onitsha, Enugu, Asaba Etc, I saw mammot crowds of people risking their lives, closing their businesses & walking great distances for the sake of Biafra!! If a referendum is conducted today, over 95% of Igbos will vote yes. Nigeria is doomed to fail, the earlier you pro Nigerians realise that the better for us all. 5 Likes |

CSTR2: Aftermath of wetin? Effiong was a nobody before Biafra and remained a nobody after Biafra because Biafra was never important to us. Period! Ojukwu has memorial days in his honour doesn't he? He has one or two streets or something name after him right? So compared to Ojukwu, Effiong is NOBODY to us. We see him as someone who tried to sell his people because of the prospect of being 2nd in command. Finish! 4 Likes 1 Share |

TonyeBarcanista: Oga Ika and the rest of Ukwuanis are till today attending the Igbo-wide OHANEZE NDIGBO meeting. Even the immediate past President of the group was from that region. So what is your argument here. Nzeogwu, one of the most dreaded Biafrans is from that region. Do you need DNA test before you stop this 'territorial expansion?'. 7 Likes |
