What I saw in that video isn't bravery. If you will be sincere, it is pure frustration! That guy is frustrated... And he is towing a part devoid of intellectual soundness... Diplomacy is a key word among we Ijebus, it involves alot of things ranging from deceit to ego massaging.

If the yoruba tribe are the ones clamouring for biafra, we would have gotten it without blood or noise. That is diplomacy. Ndigbos shd ask how Azikiwe of Africa did it... Those guys don't make noise.

Kanu isn't even half intelligent and trained as Odimegwu Ojukwu. Just as Zik wasn't proud of Ojukwu's tactics, ojwuku wouldn't be proud of Kanu's. He is a noise maker.

Only an intellectual and industrial empowerment can free a region (ever wonder why Awolowo started free education here or why many research centres were founded in Ibadan?)....

#I am IJEBU
#I am YORUBA
#I am a NIGERIAN
#I AM A CHRISTIAN

stop yarning dust! Diplomacy doesn't work with Buhari.neither is the cause KANU fighting for require that.industrial and intellectual empowerment without political freedom is rubbish.

Africa is still in political slavery of the western world.

dotcomnamename:
At a stormy court session on Tuesday, Mr. Kanu said the president can intimidate court judges, but not him.
“The president can intimidate the judges, but he cannot do that to me. Tell him he has lied,” [b][/b]said Mr. Kanu.

A Federal High Court in Abuja ruled on Tuesday on an application seeking the protection of witnesses in the ongoing trial of Mr. Kanu, and three others, David Nwawuisi, Benjamin Madubugwu and Chidiebere Onwudiwe, who are facing trial for alleged treasonable felony.

They were arraigned before Justice Binta Nyako after the first defendant said he had no confidence in the former judge, John Tsoho.
The court had adjourned the application for protection of witnesses to December 13.

Delivering the ruling, Mrs. Binta said the court would allow the witnesses some degree of protection.

“The counsels and the defendants will see the witnesses. The witnesses will have special entrances to and outside the court,” the judge said.


Mr. Kanu’s lawyer, Chux Muoma, warned his client to allow the counsel he employed to do his job without undue interference in court.

“Sit down! I am your counsel let me talk. I have not come all the way here to allow you speak for me in court,” said Mr. Muoma.

This Kanu guy just sentenced himself to life imprisonment.

Because in the ZOO freedom of expression is extinct.

Buhari making Nnamdi Kanu more and more popular than SE governors everyday.
Kanu is a lucky man, really.

All you said here is simply based on faith and anxiety.
We have decided to survive on oil because we chose to. Oil has been discovered in nigeria since the 50's but we survived without oil until 1971. If at biafra secedes, we would still survive.
I hope you considered feeding when you talked about this ?


Are u only trying to be sacarstic here? Is leadership not a benefit? Hav u thought about the effect of power tussle? I just gave you an example of Sudan and u decidd to overlook it . I hope you know that right now Biafra isnt having the backings of leaders and kings?. Only Kanu and youth were not born are agitating.




If it took us 50years collectively to come only this far, don't you think it will take a quarter region his entire life to fail?
What has newyork being a larger state than Nigeria got to do with immigration?
Spiritual connection? Who still talks dis sh*t



Did he call you into closet to debunk the statement or you had to formulate something that will quench your thirst even if it means going against the master's wish.




PS: how has Nigeria been unfair to Biafrans, havre you heard of any report where someone had been laid of work or beaten it killed because he is Igbo?
Kanu is power thirsty , he is fighting to be a president .

Just as I had feared, you've turned the discussion to Biafra. I wanted you to explain to me, without mentioning anything about Biafra or any other potential independent state, why remaining in a united Nigeria is the best thing for the Igbos. How exactly does it benefit us? Every time I ask people this question, they always resort to implying that Nigeria is the lesser of two evils and that any independent state will fail because of so and so reasons. One should never have to stay in a country just because they're afraid that they'll fail should they choose to do any different.

As for your last point, well, what can I say? Have you read any Nigerian news in the past 50+ years? Many Igbos have died just for being Igbos, especially in the North.

Please stop derailing the thread . If the Igbos think Nigeria is not good for them then find a peaceful way out. This is a mental health thread for Nnamdi Kanu

Since you are against a United Nigeria, may I know the reason why you believe the Igbos should seceede?

Please I need a proof of the emboldened culled from a credible source or I'll only have to believe that you want me to believe anything even if its false so I can agree with your point of view.

PS: I made lots of typographical errors in my last comment, my phone was freezing and I had just 1% battery to type and post, but I hope my point was well related.

Can't really be bothered to look for sources right now but the various pogroms during and before 1966, including the 1953 Kano riots. The 2010 Jos riots, yes I know that Christians were targeted but most Northerners see an Igbo person and automatically tag that person as a Christian. Also, the riots that took place after the implementation of Sharia Law in the North; again, Christians were targeted but we all know that Igbos are synonymous with Christians in parts of the North. These are just the main ones. Many Igbos have been murdered in cold blood in various parts of the country e.g. Kano state 2012, were four Igbos were killed mercilessly by some locals.

The Igbos have no history of existing at a nation state level.Developmentally they never evolved beyond the village state level of political organization . Having such a chaotic mix as neighbours will be a serious security threat to any serious nation and so they cannot be left to their own unruly and primordial devices they will always need containment

If u were to talk about 1966, even a secondary school student should know that Igbos threw the first punch, but that's a story for another day because I won't want you to get flopped easily.

And when has the killing of Christians turned to killing of Igbos? It will be pathetically bias if you decide to turn a religious war to a tribal war just to justify an invalid point.
Do you know how many westerners lost their lives? do u want to compare the number of Igbos in the north to the number of Yorubas?.
Check your stats well and you will know that a larger percentage of Igbos would never return to the north since the civil war.

Lmao, 'flopped' by whom? What exactly did they do, in your opinion, to deserve to be brutally murdered en masse? What did those who were slaughtered actually do to their murderers?

I already said that the Jos and Sharia riots were targeted at Christians in general, however, you and I both know that Igbos are synonymous with Christianity in most Northerners' eyes. Stop trying to be pedantic here, most Nigerians know this. Btw, I know that other southerners were murdered in some of them riots as well but the majority of the victims were Igbos. Btw, many Igbos refused to return back to the North but many chose otherwise. There's still a very healthy population of Igbos living in the North today, although more have left due to Boko Haram- are you going to deny this?

Somehow, I just feel this should end. Your points are getting myopic.
When someone kills the other for being a christian and you say its because he is Igbo, that's undisputably myopic and selfish.
Its surprising for someone to conclude that Igbos have a larger population than yorubas in the north .
Please which of the states are closer to the north if I may ask?


You said what did they do to deserve the killing? OK, what level of rage would you feel if someone takes away the most important people in your life? (God forbid)
I guess you haven't studied what led to the civil war .

Go look in the mirror to see who needs therapy for mental illness.

Definition of 'myopic':
1) short-sighted.
2) lacking foresight or intellectual insight.

Au contraire, I absolutely understand the difference between 'Igbo' and 'Christian', which I alluded to in my previous posts. However, that does not in any negate the fact that many in Nigeria, particularly the North, do not fully distinguish Igboness from Christianity. Notice I said that Igbos are synonymous with Christianity, not Christianity is synonymous with the Igbos; the syntax is very important here. You seem to be the one lacking insight here; you can't just look at something on the surface and believe that you have a full understanding of it. Btw, in my posts, I have not mentioned anywhere that people from other ethnic groups have not been killed in the North but it's clear that the Igbos are the most 'obvious' target due to their association with Christianity. To suggest otherwise is rather mischievous imo.

Its surprising for someone to conclude that Igbos have a larger population than yorubas in the north .

Excluding Kwara state (and maybe Kogi state too, although I'm not sure if they have indigenous Yorubas or not), it would not be surprising for someone to say that at all, even taking into account the Igbos who've left the North-East recently. Anyway, why are you bringing up Yorubas here? What have they got to do with Igbos being killed in the North?

You said what did they do to deserve the killing? OK, what level of rage would you feel if someone takes away the most important people in your life? (God forbid)
I guess you haven't studied what led to the civil war .

SMH, I have to say that I'm truly disappointed in you. I actually gave you an opportunity to retract that statement, instead, you've used it to justify yourself even more. What a shame!

How can someone who claims to be a progressive say that those people who were slaughtered deserved to be murdered because a few politicians were killed by a bunch of soldiers? Yes, I have studied the civil war, in depth too, and that is why I can confidently say that your justification is absolute hogwash. They did nothing to deserve what happened to them and the fact that you think they did shows just how messed up a country Nigeria is today. Don't complain when you see innocent Christians being slaughtered in the North due to happenings outside of their control as that pogrom was the prototypical event that allowed many in the North to understand that they could get away with anything as long as the victims did not share the North's ethno-religious background. You claim to have studied the civil war yet you cannot seem to see how history in repeating itself? What a shame!

@GreenCap What do you think of this post and the one I'm replying to? I'd really like to get into the mind of a nationalist Nigerian.

Nnamdi Kanu

Is his mind working normally?


That is the Issue here
