Oyiboman69: You mean Ogun and Oyo, the ritual capital of Nigeria? See>>> Village boys arrested for stealing 30 human skulls: Monday, November 7, residents of Arikuyeri village, in Iyana-Offa, Lagelu Local Government Area of Oyo State, believed that the caving in of many graves around was as a result of ageing of the burial places...A gang of human skull thieves had actually been at work. They had been roaming the village and exhuming “biscuits,” as skulls are referred to in their secret parlance. In the night, the elements had always dug the graves for skulls, fresh or stale. “When Rilwan began to mention names, we couldn’t believe it. He told us he was not alone in the business. He mentioned Sule, Muideen, Ibrahim and the Baba Isegun of Arikuyeri.” 14 Likes |

How will the so called TonyeBarcanista Ijaw manage, Benin, urhobo, itsekiri, isoko and wat eva is left over? In fact how will these groups manage themselves? They keep talking about Biafra but they dont even know their own faith. The igbo man love Nigeria but is left with no choice but to find his way due to hostility and injustice. 18 Likes 1 Share |

Cooly100: Well, don't you think other groups may reject the name "Biafra" - seeing it as an Igbo thing? Will there be a need to change this name to something else so that all the groups will partake actively? It may be hard to convince someone who has associated Biafra with Igbo people to join Biafra, in my opinion though. |

ndoeyopbennet: You like his suggestion that Port Harcourt or Uyo should be the Capital of Biafra but you don't like it to be in Enugu because it will be too far for people in C/River or Akwaibom to access. How central are P/Harcourt or Uyo in the Biafra Map? Where now is your objectivity? 18 Likes |
Re: Why Niger Deltans Won't Subscribe To The Biafran Movement by ndoeyopbennet: 9:36pm On Nov 20, 2016 |
pazienza: I agree with you point on the distribution of capitals. If this is projected, many ethnic groups will fall in line, include the Edoid groups.
This may not be how other ethnic groups see it sha. Some believe, and I dont blame them for it, that Igbos need access to seaport, and extra oil, hence the struggle to include other regions.
Yes o. I am scared of an African franca. It will do faster damage to my mother-tongue than English. Orogun in Urhobo is a case study. However, I am comfortable with your response here.
Thanks for replying. You have clarified some points. 3 Likes 1 Share |

ceaz4r: Capital city is a big question mark and one that is not easy to address. I dont think central is such a good idea for a Biafra capital city. It is best kept on the coast, inbetween Rivers and Bayelsa.(IMO) |
Re: Why Niger Deltans Won't Subscribe To The Biafran Movement by ndoeyopbennet: 9:39pm On Nov 20, 2016 |
ceaz4r: My concern is for the riverine people who spend hours before reaching mainland. When we look at the map of the proposed nation, many of the riverine places and islands are not even there and these people suffer daily commuting from their locales. If capital is at Enugu, it may take a day before they reach it. It'll be better in a location which is accessible from Enugu, the most northern part of the proposed country, Ogoja, the most eastern, Urhoboland, the most western and Brass, the most southern. These are all hypothetical matters though. 1 Like |

OP You are asking people to address your points, but the fact is that there is no point to address, all these are figments of your imagination, you are merely trying to create troubles where there is non. when Ojukwu was leaving for ivory coast in the mid 70s he handed over the mantle of leadership to Philip Effiong, and Philip led till the end of war, thus, the last president of the old Biafran nation. there is no record of Ndigbo engaging their Biafran brothers, they have been leaving together peacefully for God knows how long, the war will not start now, not when we now know the real enemy. Igbos are Republicans in nature, they are not domineering, in the past igbos don't even have established kingship system so domination is not in their DNA, ndigbo only need free space to excel. Biafran people shall develop a constitution that will accommodate and carry along every Biafran and every Biafran tribe, we love ourselves to the envy of our enemies. Biafra shall come, Biafra shall flourish, so you should better worry your head about what becomes of your Oduduwa republic when Biafra goes. 19 Likes 1 Share |

adonis89:Hahaha See this my clownish friend. Before election I told you that whether Jonathan win or lose, hell will not break lose in Ijawland. You argued, Jonathan LOST and nothing happened. I believe you are not in tune with Ijaw position on matters of interest and Ijaw interest as a whole. Yea you are a clown supporting Biafra, your opinion is however flawed as 99.99999% of Ijaw nation are ANTI-BIAFRA. If only you are in touch you would have read the positions of INC, Ijaw monarchs and other leaders including militants on Biafra. I am eminently qualified to speak for Ijaw nation because I am IN TOUCH and I know the interest of Ijaw nation. BTW Go find any Ijaw FB page and join.... Clown 19 Likes 1 Share |

amachuk: I hate that stream of thought where anyone who questions the veracity of Biafra is deemed to be from Oduduwa or Arewa. It is one of the issues I raised. Ojukwu left power for Effiong because of necessity not because it was planned so that analogy fails to hold waters with me. So far, Ndiigbo has not really done much to show their hand of friendship to other neighbouring ethnic groups. Far from it, its youths have been making enemies where there were none. A case in point is the enmity between Bini and Urohobo people with Igbos due to some of the careless statements Ipob youths make online. Let us learn to build bridges and makes others see the beauty in our cause and fights rather than make enemies because we feel we don't need others to actualise our dreams. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

What does niger deltans have in common outside of producing oil? Is it language? Culture? Food? Aren't urohbos and ijaws in delta state killing each other? The moment your cursed oil becomes worthless to Nigeria, no political entity will listen to you and give a damnn. The irony of this whole thing is that Niger Delta needs Biafra more than Biafra needs it. Personally I just want an Igbo only Biafra. I don't subscribe to IPOB version of including ungrateful non-Igbos. Let them stay in the zoo and continue to sell their souls. 13 Likes 1 Share |

TonyeBarcanista: Dis guy keeps sounding ridiculous by the day. Wat do u call the bombing of oil infrastructure? love making, paradise or heaven? Are u more Ijaw than Asari Dokunbo or Tompolo and NDA? Do u know their position on Biafra? Anyway, we pray that Nigeria starts to work and get things right before and after 2019, else Biafra will be a reality, with ijaw or no ijaw. One thing is certain, all Igbo and igboid groups are automatically Biafrans, no need to hold referendum there. 11 Likes 1 Share |
