As long as there are things like "indegene", "non-indegene", "quota system", "catchment areas", "zoning" "state of origin" etc associated with Nigeria we can never be really united. There is way too many ethnic groups. The hatred we have for each other can not allow us progress. If we can't get past these then: Nigeria should be happy to let Biafra be created. Let Oodua Republic be created. Let the Niger Delta Republic be created. Let a Northern Caliphate be created. And anyone of any tribe can choose where they want to be part of. The colonists merging us is the final blow before their departure. The religious difference and tribalism is killing us. 4 Likes |

The north has continously exploited and oppressed the south for too long and ur here talking like this... U better wake up n smell the coffee, thr is really nothing like one Nigeria and if the truth is told as it is, the most detribalised Nigerian is the igbo man, cos he likes to explore outside his territories and in doing so has to mingle effectively with all tribes.

Very interesting comments you make. lol. How do you form Biafra without the South South? Have you looked at the map of Nigeria? How do you form a country within another country? Come to think of it are you sure Biafra is not in need of the oil the South South has to offer? LordNicvuitton: 1 Like |

TonyeBarcanista: Please go back to your history books again. Ojukwu was the Governor of the old Eastern region at the outbreak of hostilities against the Igbos and in order to divide our ranks, Gowon whom Ojukwu refused to recognise as head of state for his seeming complicity in the bloody coup and inability to protect lives attempted to carve out those States you mentioned out of the region. Of course Ojukwu and your fathers agreed and collectively resisted it, but your fathers chickened out when it seemed things were no longer faring well with the war effort to wit, the liberation of Portharcourt et al. Let it be well stated that Ojukwu did not unilaterally pull Eastern Nigeria out of Nigeria but held wide consultative meetings with your people before doing so. A certain Philip Effiong was his deputy throughout the war. Just ask your fathers to tell you the truth. While not a supporter of the current agitation for Biafra, it nauseates me to see people like you turn history on its head. A little research and a bit of objectivity might help you, if you try. 2 Likes |

irunoobo:. U really mean this? Damn! All this argument back and forth as to why Biafra will not succeed is a waste of time. Folks just giving instances where succession bids failed, deliberatley forgetting where they succeeded. That the Texans failed and continue failing in their bid to leave US does not mean Igbos can't leave Nigeria if they so wish. We are not Texans. We are IGBOS. A simple referendum will put all this to rest. It is my sincere belief that majority of Igbos will want to leave Nigeria - if the opportunity ever comes. Not that am pro-Biafran but we need to discuss without sentiments. The secession bid by pro-Biafra Igbos is a 50-50 situation. It could go either way. Its not like secession is impossible especially as some so-called powers want to divide Nigeria so desperately, for their own evil motives. Thats what their prediction of our dis-integration is all about. Biafra is beginning to get world attention. Its not by chance. It will get worse. If u don't want Nigeria divided, than pray to God, if u believe in Him. If u believe in positive thinking, then "positive-think" seriously. All this argument will solve nothing. Truth is: Nigeria is being goaded to disintegration. 1 Like 2 Shares |

Lajet: That, in a nutshell, is exactly why there has not been any Igbo President since forever, and the way things are going, for quite a while to come. A charismatic leader like Fashola can mobilize a crowd. I need not talk about Buhari's ability to mobilize crowds. Heck, even GEJ has his passionate followers... No charismatic leader from the SE with national appeal yet it's all too easy to lazily claim 'marginalization' for the reason why a SOuth Easterner isn't in Aso Rock. 3 Likes |
