lofty900: Biafra lost the war cos the Fed side had the advantage of a naval blockade, and allies in Britain and Russia who supplied very expensive weapons Biafra couldn't afford. And Nigeria's currency change ensured all CBN money in Ojukwu's custody became useless at the start of the war. They are a lot of other reasons. The book half of a yellow sun is not a story of the war so u don't expect to get a military account of the war from it. You can start with the broken bridge. it's quite un biased. 1 Like 1 Share |

Neddstark:And please stop throwing tantrums up and down,only a fool would deny that if you are raised by any ethnicity, no matter how much of a coconut (brown on outside/white inside fakers)you might be,you would still have an affinity for that ethnicity, note,ethnicity is not nationality,you can be British and still Igbo or yoruba.so stop with the inferiority complex. P.s,chiwetel has been to his hometown in Enugu severely and was just recently there for his sister's weeding to a Yoruba chap.even the scars on his face are from an accident on our great Benin -Onitsha expressway, when he was ten. Happy birthday chewy, you are an inspiration to your generation. 2 Likes |

Neddstark:Their is a Huge difference between Tribe and Nationality. The fact that Chi Onwurah, Ejiofor and other diaspora natives don't identify as Nigerians doesn't negate their ancestry and roots which could be Igbo, Yoruba or Bini as the case may be. An individual has the prerogative to identify with a Nation that has nurtured and conditioned him,that doesn't give you the right to take away his ethnic identity away from him especially when he/she has not done so. That is the reason for different groupings such as Igbo American, Hausa American, Yoruba American etc for natives with such ancestry. You are just out to look for trouble and denigrate Igbos. Non residency in a Nation and inability to speak Igbo language is not a prerequsite in determining an identity,afterall there are Nigerian Igbos scattered all over Nigeria,unable to speak Igbo language. Last time i checked, Ejiofor has been to Igboland several times and he is proud of his Igbo roots. You can find his interviews during the filming of 12yrs a Slave! They are British people with Igbo ancestry, period! They can choose to identify as Biafrans whenever it is created or continue to identify as British,it is their prerogative! |

lofty900: Why is it that anytime someone says Biafra...War is what comes to mind...Which war did Nigeria fight to gain independence Am Not from the East but am sympathetic to their plight, if they want out give them a referendum and see let them be from the result thereof... |

KemjikaEme: He's British nurtured, he has Nigerian ancestry. Not denying that. But like you said it is his prerogative to choose a nationality to identify with. He goes more with British lately but still respect his ancestry by taking up African roles. cool guy. I consent to all you said. Thanks. . |

lofty900:God! That movie did not do justice to the war. The book did! Don't advise people to watch the movie. Ask them to read the book. You need to read it too. Did the movie tell you about a man being forced to eat his own excreta before being tied to a heavy cross and drowned? I guess not. The book tells you everything! 1 Like |
