Stevengold:Self determination is not a call for war, let them have referendum and have Biafra if they wish, UK did not fight Scotland and Spain is not fighting Catalonia, this not olden days, UN charter should be respected,even the northern youth acknowledge UN charter in their last letter. Why all this war, war war things, people claim that Igbos are bad but are afraid for them to have their own contry. You are bringing the event of 50 years ago in these modern time. |

Odingo1:IPOB are not the recognized representatives of the Igbo people by the Nigerian state. It is then left for IPOB to organize a political party to get its members elected to to the executive and legislatures, or bring pressure to bear on the current ones to raise the matter. No representative from another region is going to do that for you and also Nigeria can never negotiate with a group whose leader is currently on trial for one of the most serious crimes against the state. |

if the ibos insist on staying in the north, its advisable for them to make proper security arrangement for their own safety. i don't trust this govt to protect them, when the gbege starts. fulani herdsmen is a case in point. don't allow your investiments to becloud ur sense of reasoning. i repeat this govt can't fight their people to defend you, better come back except you 're strong enough to defend yourselves. 1 Like |

Where they didn't distance themselves when Nnamdi Kanu was calling Nigeria zoo and calling for bloodshed? Is now they are knew we're living peacefully and they have invest so much in developing the region. The fact is that Igbo enjoy doing business in Northern Nigeria more than their own region, they are in every state and villages in the north and i am sure 80% of Igbo businesses men and women are not in support of what Nnamdi is agitating. 1 Like |

kaboji: I disagree. If they are not, they should be condemning it and not be causing nuisance online and complying with a sit-home. They think they can have their cake and still have it. Never heard of that before. It's even irrational and mischievous. Something brutal has to happen so that we can all move on. We cannot be distracted everytime with a group of people who are confused, unstable and emotional. It draws the country back and leads (already) to distrust. |

And the North has demonstrated that. It is the insults you hauled on them daily they can't bear anymore. But you can't continue insulting all of us and yet you are not doing the right things by leaving. You can't live peacefully with people you call cows and goats, and yes zoo. |

There is no doubt about the feelings of injustice in large parts of the country right now,especially the feeling of been hard done by the core north against the other parts of the country, the Igbo's has been the most voice ferrous about this. most reasonable people agreed that it's only fair that the country is restructured politically n economically with the exception of the core north who has benefited most from the status quo, the Igbo's stands a better chance of realising meaningful gains in their agitations by infusing the condition of restructuring as an antidote to the demand for secession, this way they can easily win the hearts of the SS,SW,n the ethnic minorities in the north who are agitating along that course thus leaving the core north without option rather negotiations, but I'm afraid the present incoherent n haphazard approach by the Igbo's is creating doubts, confusion n a lukewarm acceptance by those who should readily be backing them on a very good cause, the core north will be the ultimate beneficiary of this disunity, the situation may look delicate now but by a careful analysis,it's easy to see that this is a golden opportunity to really remedy the ills of this country finally n put her on a truly great course only if those who felt cheated can get their acts right,we shall cry for a long time to come if we failed now. 1 Like |

Let the battle start now NEED FOR IGBO - YORUBA DETENTE By : Chinweizu By the way there is historical evidence, from a well-placed non-Nigerian source, that the Igbo-Yoruba Cold War was needlessly unleashed by Zik in 1948, and not, as Igbo mythology has it, by Awo through the Carpet crossing in 1951. Here is the story of how Zik declared war on the Yoruba in 1948: " It was in this year [1945] that a group of Yorubas, led by Chief Awolowo, Dr Oni Akerele, Chief Abiodun Akerele, Akintola Williams, Chief Rosiji and others, founded a Yoruba organization in London called Egbe Omo Oduduwa, meaning “a society of the descendants of Oduduwa.” . . . Our friends from the Eastern Region and some from the Western Regions of that vast country showed their hostility to the formation of the Egbe Omo Oduduwa of the Yorubas. Those of us who did not hail from Nigeria were highly disturbed by the threat of our unity as West Africans under the banner of W.A.S.U., which was itself predominantly Nigerian. Although there had been in existence an Ibo Union for some twenty months or so before the birth of Egbe Omo Oduduwa, not much notice had been taken of it at W.A.S.U. In any case, for obvious reasons, this new association looked formidable enough to merit our attention. All attempts to persuade the founders to squelch the new-born association proved futile. Happily, this did not break up our great W.A.S.U. although it did leave bitter feelings all over. In Nigeria itself, the new Association did not take root until 1948, when another powerful group of Yoruba leaders formed one in Lagos. The names of the founders were indeed names to conjure with among the Yorubas in the capital—Sir Akintola Maja and many others. It was after that great event in Lagos that Chief Awolowo himself plucked up courage to inaugurate a branch at Ibadan. An editorial in Nigeria’s West African Pilot of September, 8 1948, which reached us in London, warned of the battle ahead. Among many other things, the editorial carried these ominous words: “Henceforth the cry must be one of battle against the Egbe Omo Oduduwa, its leaders at home and abroad, up hill and down dale, in the streets of Nigeria and in the streets of London and in the residence of its advocates.” The language was familiar enough. This was Nnamdi Azikiwe’s. Were our fears about the unity of Nigeria about to be justified? The parting knell had been tolled. It might in retrospect be said that the first salvos of the civil war had been fired by these words..." -- Joseph Appiah Joe Appiah: The Autobiography of an African Patriot, Accra: Assempa Publishers, 1996, pp. 160-161. This testimony from a Ghanaian who, for many years, was a member and President of W.A.S.U. in London, should give Igbos pause about the version of the Igbo-Yoruba Cold War they have accepted. The key point is that the Ibo Union had been in existence before the Egbe Omo Oduduwa was founded. Yet Zik declared war on the Egbe Omo Oduduwa. Why? If it was because the Egbe Omo Oduduwa was not Pan-Nigerian, then what of the pre-existing Ibo Union? In other words, it wasn’t the Yoruba who introduced tribal unions and tribalist politics into Nigeria but the Igbos. But whatever his reason, Zik was the one who declared war on the Yorubas; he was the aggressor. With that aggression as background, the carpet crossing becomes an understandable response to Zik’s declaration of war. If somebody who declared war on your people arrives to govern your homeland, what should your leaders do? Welcome him and let him govern, or drive him out by any means necessary? The carpet crossing accomplished just that. And Igbos, following Zik, the instigator of the response, condemn the Yorubas for defending themselves from Zik’s aggression. Zik’s conduct is an example of how Igbos can act without thinking of how their action might look to those their proposed action might adversely affect. That is a weakness Igbos should be on guard against, and should work to eliminate by extra self-awareness and constant self-criticism. For seven decades, we have paid for Zik’s aggression against the Yorubas. The Cold War which Zik started made it possible for the British to install the NPC in power in 1959 when Zik refused to join with Awo to form the Federal government. He explained it away by alluding to his distrust of Awo that stemmed from the Carpet crossing affair. In other words, Zik is ultimately responsible for our disasters and oppression under the Caliphate. But the pertinent issue at this time is that we, not the Yorubas, are responsible for the Yoruba-Igbo feud. We are not the innocent victims of Yoruba tribalism and hatred. That fact should inform our attitude in seeking rapprochement with the Yorubas, especially now that we need a Yoruba-Igbo alliance to help create conditions for us to exit our imprisonment in Lugard’s Nigeria."
