Crushing Biafra Retarded Nigeria’s Technological Advancement – Ben Bruce

Ben Murray Bruce, the senator representing Bayelsa East and the chairman of Silverbird Group, had over the weekend cited the civil war, otherwise known as the Biafran War, as the reason why Nigeria has not grown technologically.

Senator Murray Bruce who was in Aba, stated this on Saturday, August 27, 2016, while addressing the International Youth Day Conference which was organised by the Vision Alive Empowerment under the recognition of the United Nations, UN.

While speaking on the theme, “How To Make A Good Choice While At The Youthful Age,” the senator revealed more about his youthful age stating that the right choice he made during his youth led him to become a successful businessman.

He explained why Nigeria is not growing in the tech world, and why technology is not contributing to the Nigeria’s economy.

“Nigeria is moving backward because they think that they are smart, and they do everything possible to erase the Nigeria/Biafra civil war in the history by burning and destroying all the tech tools which Biafrans used during the civil war,” Bruce was quoted as saying.

“Igbos are the most successful people in Nigeria today, both tech and business, even before and after the civil war, Igbos has been advanced more than other tribes, that’s why the other tribe in Nigeria can’t do without them.”

Furthermore, the senator said, had Nigeria keep those tech tools and maintain the history of the civil war, with the massive tech tools owned by the Biafrans, Nigeria would have excelled worldwide and make a good fortune out of it.

“Look at United State of America today, most of their technology experts are not Americans and most of their tools they use are Chinese owned tools, because during those days Chinese were like slave to them and they see the potentials inside the Chinese and utilized it.

“Likewise, when Nigeria thinks that they have defeated Biafrans during the civil war, that was when General Yakubu Gowon declared ‘no victor no vanquish.’ Had Nigeria kept those Biafran tech tools they used during the civil war and utilized them, you can imagine where Nigeria would have been today in the technology world.

“Nigeria thinks they played a smart deal by burning it and destroying it because they are afraid of Biafra and it has always been their worst nightmare, but they made a big mistake and it has drawn us backward rather than forward in the technology world today.

“Nigeria can’t stand without the South East. Also the Igbos, South East precisely should focus on their God gifted gift and maybe politics isn’t their calling, they have been technologically and Business endowed.[/b]

“Igbos are blessed, South East are blessed, only if they can look beyond Nigeria politics and focus on the God gifted talent, they will excel, and be great again.

“Seceding or agitation isn’t the solution only if they can realize their great potentials and focused on it, develop and build South East, look beyond Nigeria politics, since it seems like it’s not their calling,” he added.

Addressing the youths, the senator said, “make a good choice today so that your future will justify you. Stop thinking what a mortal man sitting on the Aso Rock can do for you and start thinking how you can be great to yourself. Furthermore, every human is gifted only if you can find and develop the potentials in you.”

He said what?

He lacks credibility anyway,so his praise does not carry any weight.

Has he returned the loan he took from the Government?Amcon loading.

Nice one from Senator Ben Bruce.. You really made a good point here sir, but..

thank God i am one of them

“Igbos are the most successful people in Nigeria today, both tech and business, even before and after the civil war, Igbos has been advanced more than other tribes, that’s why the other tribe in Nigeria can’t do without them.”


Our (Igbo) apparently relative success within Nigeria is but "filthy rags" compared to our potential success [b]without [/b]Nigeria. It's also a big lie that the rest of Nigeria can't do without Igbos. There are about 200 other countries without indigenous Igbos in them and most of them are apparently doing pretty good.

The fact that you believe there is something called ''ritual money'' shows why you can never be successful in life.

Please we igbos should stop these saying that the Nigerian government is limiting us. ..
How is the government stopping a shoe marker in Aba from reaching his peak??
How is Nigeria stopping igbos from building high tech cars??
How is the fedral government holding igbos from building indigenous refineries??


I think we need to do some soul searching, which tribe in Nigeria can we say likes the igbos??

Everyone can't be wrong at the same time

As for Bruce, he has shown he lacks the intelligence I once thought he had... Just talking politically

Confirm hater.. your hatred for his personality has beclouded your sense of reasoning.
Now I see! Hunger really bad.

The truth is the igbos have done the unbelievable even after the civil war they came to lagos, started their business and have taken over the commercial industry in lagos. Their success is evidyent please you guys in lagos check ur street and count the Igbo Landlords there. Secondly if u r well traveled u will see that the igbos r in most countries in fact if not all countries in the world ask don't argue they r really hard working and the jewish blood is evident in them....

Atigbo

Yes,they are the most successful when it comes to drug trafficing.Only that they use to be shot like rabbit, when caught in indonesia all other places.

Most successful indeed Why are the most successful crying more about the harsh economic situation instead of living happily in their affluence?
Ben Bruce can be a good negotiator, pacifying and massaging the deflated ego.

Some hate filled people will come here and spill trash. How about, if you don't have anything nice to say then shut up.

This kind of comment the eboes like(ego massaging comment).I wont be surprised, if they turn him into another thin god like FFK.

Lolzz. Allow them to rejoice abeg.

fiizznation:
[s]History revisionist. Funny. When did weapons used in world war2 became an African invention? Some people can be funny. And to think a a senator spew this trash made the whole thing more senseless. During the Nigeria/Biafra war, the French army and the south African mercenaries gave the biafran army weapons while the British and her America ally gave Nigeria army weapons. This thing is documented in local and foreign journals. And to think a senator wants to mischievously rewrite history is ludicrous and laughable. [/s]

Afonja will die of envy one day. This people thinks Igbos are their mate...SMH.

Yoloba hating as usual.

Never seen a tribe with such inferiority complex. Tufiakwa!!!
Must truly suck to be yoloba.

@ Ben
We know but we are better off without your Nigeria. That shithole is a curse on earth. The rest of una might want to stay in that cursed and sink with it. Igbos are smart enough to know when to jump ship and not go down under with a shithole

NA inferiority complex they worry am.

They've accredited themselves self deluded statements such as "most educated, most developed, most sophisticated", etc and till date, non yoloba do not listen or even accredited them those delusions they self claimed.
The tribe they've been trying so desperately to tell everybody is backwards is constantly getting praised by both Africans and non Africans.

Like I always say..if you are good, no need to shout..others will notice without you shouting. If you ain't shit but delude yourself that you are the shit, nobody will notice instead it is you that would keep trying to tell everyone how you're "most educated, most sophisticated, among other BS"
Abeg give am space to hate and wail. It's expected
