Biafra Surrender Ojukwu Ran Away: Col. Phillip Effiong's Speech to Gowon On January 15, 1970 at Dodan Barracks in Lagos, in the presence of General Gowon, Effiong announced the end of the Biafran conflict. "I, Major-General Phillip Efiong, Officer Administering the Government of the Republic of Biafra, now wish to make the following declaration: That we affirm that we are loyal Nigerian citizens and accept the authority of the Federal Military Government of Nigeria. That we accept the existing administrative and political structure of the Federation of Nigeria. That any future constitutional arrangement will be worked out by representatives of the people of Nigeria. That the Republic of Biafra hereby ceases to exist." [1] At the time of the surrender, Effiong believed that the situation was hopeless and that prolonging the conflict would have led only to the further destruction and starvation of the people of Biafra. At that time Effiong said, "I am convinced now that a stop must be put to the bloodshed which is going on as a result of the war. I am also convinced that the suffering of our people must be brought to an immediate end." In a 1996 interview, Effiong reflected on those events: I have no regrets whatsoever of my involvement in Biafra or the role I played. The war deprived me of my property, dignity, my name. Yet, I saved so many souls on both sides and by this,I mean Biafra and Nigeria. . . . I felt that I played a role which has kept this country united till today. . . . At the end of it all when I saw they (Biafran soldiers) could no longer continue and Ojukwu had fled, I did what was ideal after wide consultation . . . Effiong died 6 November 2003, at the age of 78 less than two weeks before his 79th birthday. |

IkediiEbube: You even exposed yourself, maybe you didn't remember you registered this your account with Igbo Monika (IkediiEbube) to claim sometimes that you're an Igbo who doesn't support Biafra.. very pathetic. See, my message to all the hating Afonjas we have grown past your hatred, you were busy hating and we're busy advancing and under your very own eyes things you never imagined are happening, we're on the world scale BBC, CNN, Aljazeerah and many more international TV that never talked about us are now eventually on it. So your fears, your envy and hatred have no meaning to IPOD or Biafra anymore, they never had and will never have, you said Nnamdi Kanu will remain in the prison till heaven come but, we proved you wrong, he was released and you shamelessly started masturbating on his bail terms, trolling on every Biafran/IPOD thread to see if Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was with more than 10 or granted interview, Yes! he has been granting interviews and yesterday was with hundreds of people presence and millions online and offline through Ajazirah TV. We have moved on to Building our nation and by the time its officially pronounced we would have a very great functioning states of Biafra, what should bother you is what your country Nigeria will look like after we left, how your relationship with your Masters Hausa/Fulani will be.. so keep being childish You can never equal or match us in any aspect of life not in this life or next to come, just as its in you to hate and not be able to explain why and how you do that, that's as much and even more it is in us to advance even in adversity, keep it on, bring it on, let the envy and hatred for no reason continue to flow freely because that's how we succeed. All Hail Biafra and lovers of Freedom! 1 Like |

IkediiEbube: Oh coward! no we're not going to leave Lagos, we'll be here even after biafra to do our businesses all we'll need is our legal documents which is our international passport because we'll be the 54 fully recognized sovereign states of African countries and under ECOWAS law we're allowed to do business here in Lagos provided it remains in African soil.. |
