"I, like many other Igbos have stood on the side lines for far too long, wishing this Biafran breeze fizzles away, but it’s now dangerously turning into a major storm that constitutes an existential threat to Igbo civilization as we know it. Those of you IPOBians, Sympathizers, Rumour Mongers, Facebook Warriors, Facebook megastars, Opinion Leaders and Propagandists escalating the already tense situation must understand that in the end, you'll all be losers, victims and at the same time in more bondage than you ever were. Not my wish anyway, but the perceptible reality. No war ever got won by emotions. Preparation and strategy does, ask any battle-tested soldier. Even the best of them get eaten. Little by little you guys are doing everything possible to attract avoidable conflict to our region hoping that the international community will intervene. You'll be in for a shocker when this meal you've cooked for so long is served up.


Understand this, I have monitored many revolutionary conflicts around the world and know this for a fact, the international community foot-drags at less than a snail pace, if at all, before attempting any interventions in internal conflicts in a sovereign nation and that includes America and Israel you're hoping on. War is a huge liability and no Country wants to meddle. The best they give these days are reliefs not military aids and that is after many must have died including those who started the fire. I watched it happen to Libyans, Yemenis, Syrians and till now they still don't have peace. Besides, you’d be stupid to believe that those countries, if ever there is any, promising to support Nnamdi Kanu are really in for it. Some of them want to use him to initiate conflict and sell their weapons to both sides and make blood dollars. War is an all-comers affair and all kinds of demonically vicious players come to the slimy field to play the hellish game of blood and death. In this case, Boko Haram that has largely been caged by the army will break free to roam with ambitions to finally establish their Caliphate across Nigeria, all because the Army now fighting on two fronts can no longer concentrate on them having become too stretched. Guess what, they’ll come with ISIS on their back. Nigerian Army will be fighting to keep Nigeria together on one front, Boko Haram (ISIS Nigerian Branch) with Caliphatist ambition on the other and Biafra with secessionist ambition on yet another front. That was how Syria got so complex till date and any war in Nigeria today will have a similar picture. Whoever gets overwhelmed will face the other. It will be a long and difficult journey and unlike the first civil war without Boko Haram in the equation, no one can predict the tortuous end. Other Jihadists from across Africa and Middle-East will join in as they always do wherever there’s instability to advance their different brands of Islam. In the end you’ll leave Nigeria and discover you’re fighting other strangers you don’t even know how they came into the picture.


The big boys (international players) like Iran will be there to get there pound of flesh from Nigeria in revenge for the Shiites, Saudi will be there to defend Nigeria, and all will play. Weapons merchants will the start smiling to the banks. Guess where the theatre of war would be, Igboland. We must not allow this! Libyans thought they were fighting Ghaddafi but after Ghaddafi, they discovered other strangers fighting them to establish their different brands of Islam. Same thing in Syria. The words of Saif Al Islam Ghaddafi (Ghaddafi’s first son) keeps ringing in my ears as he forewarned Libyans of these grim possibilities, but okuko nti ike nánu ife n’ite ofe. I never took him seriously at the time but in retrospect, I now see he knew better because it panned out just as he predicted and Libya still isn’t out of the woods. That’s the way it is these days of jihad consciousness across the world. If you ever experience war, you'll never take peace for granted. War is not a movie as some of you think. You could be the first victim. Can you stomach watching your loved ones maimed, killed, raped, tortured, starve to death under slow and painful circumstances? Those are the grim realities of war and in Africa, it is executed with luciferous savagery and psychopathic sadism. The worst of peace is still better than the best of wars.


Funny enough, most of our chest-beating IPOBians will likely die off within the first month or two of the conflict leaving those who knew nothing or are on the sidelines to defend themselves. There will be nowhere to run to as no country in West Africa will agree to accept the ocean-sized volume of refugees. When the Rwandan genocide was looming, everyone was running his mouth until the death hurricane they courted so hard swept across their country, they wailed and shouted for international community to intervene but none came. That's the way it is. Paul Kagame, their current President it was who ended it. And they vowed to “never again”. They learnt from history and have completely removed tribalism from every facet of national life and are admirably making astounding progress as one of Africa's best. My advice, agreed, Buhari hasn't treated us as well as we wanted, but wait till 2019 and make amends. I have listened to Nnamdi Kanu on several videos and my conclusion is that he is plain naive on how things roll in a conflict situation. On one occasion he bragged that it would take him only two weeks to reach Sokoto in the event of war. I don't know what weapons and extra-terrestrial strategies he has to execute that. War is an unpredictable undertaking that you'll be ignorant to estimate which direction it goes. As it is, he has no weapons just yet and is bragging. Many of you believe him and even ascribe infallibility to his words. I have lived a couple of years abroad and what some of you don't know is that many of our people there egging you on don't have immigration papers and are praying for an outbreak of hostilities in Nigeria so they can claim asylum on the back of it. We must advise ourselves on this current path of self-annihilation. Some of you think Biafra will be the end of all your problems, so South Sudan thought, as did Eritrea, but sorry it will be the beginning of new ones. Now take this to the Bank, it will even be far more difficult for any country to touch any conflict here with a long spoon than it was in the sixties. Reason? Then there was the prospect of oil but today oil is out of fashion and even as it is, Nigeria is begging for buyers and nobody's buying. Osinbajo said that much a few days back. Now, tell me, if they spend their money intervening in your conflict to save your asses, what will they get in return? The best they can do for you is to condemn what is going on, then more out-pouring of condemnations and then more unleashing of floodgates of condemnations, but NO ACTION while you die in numbers.


You often argue that a call for referendum is not a call for war. I agree completely! Very true! Referendum is a right not a privilege. Even Buhari asserted that much in favour of Palestine when he addressed the UN. However, it is plain naivety to assume that all that is enshrined in international law is enforceable. UN has no mechanism of enforcement. Countries and Dictators constantly flout it and nothing happens. Even if something were to happen you’ll all have decomposed in your graves by then. A show of bravado will not lead you anywhere Umunnem. Call me a coward if you like, but Chinua Achebe told us that we often stand in the house of a coward to point at where a brave man ONCE lived. In any case, isn’t it foolishness to challenge an army that has been stockpiling arms since 1960 when you on the other hand haven’t bought a bullet just yet? Papa Achebe puts it this way, “Only a foolish man can go after a leopard with his bare hands”. As impulsive and as tempting as it may get, tone down your rhetorics, invectives, acerbics, and cursing on social media. Cherish the peace you now have at least Igbos are not worse-off than other regions despite never being in power. While there is grinding poverty in other regions, the highest income per capita in the country is posted by Anambra and other Igbo states ain’t doing badly. Our people live well, build better houses compared to other regions and it's all a miracle given the scratch we started from after the war. Why do we want to throw all that away because of ego and start all over again? Is it a curse? The Hausas though having been in power do not even live a better quality of life than Igbos. Let's be wise and not give opportunity to destroy all we've achieved as a people.

I condemn in the strongest of terms the killing of unarmed people by Nigerian soldiers, killer herdsmen, and do not by any means say Nigeria is what we want it to be but understand Biafra wasn't Ojukwu's first choice. At Aburi his choice was a return to true federalism which he knew was a better deal for us than secession. Nigeria failed to honour that agreement and continued the killings forcing him to declare a Biafran Republic to save his people from slaughter and it's understandable. Nigeria owes us tons of apologies, I agree. But brothers, let's think again! A Biafra today will even be far less economically viable than it would have been then. Reason is because then we would have used oil money to jump-start the new country but today oil is so unsellable to the extent that Venezuela with arguably the largest reserves is grappling with severe economic problems. Kick-starting a new country from the basics would be painfully slow and may outlive our generation to even get the basic things in place. Arewa youths know that, the reason they have asked Nigerian Government to let Igbos go, only for Nnamdi Kanu to start asking for Benue and Rivers because he knows that Igboland alone isn’t viable. Asking for Benue is laughable because they were never part of Biafra and have made it clear to all, as did different Rivers groups that they don’t want Biafra. A handful of his collaborators from those regions pledging allegiance to him does not equate to an entire people. Majority of their people hate this Biafran idea and have made that much clear. Some funny IPOBians are also hoping on Asari Dokubo and FFK. What a funny bunch being used to fight other people’s fight. Why won’t they take up the gauntlet or is it only us that is suffering injustice? Don't even think corruption will suddenly disappear in a new Biafra as some naive IPOBians hope. If they give you Biafra today, your eyes will open up to new unpleasant realities many of you haven't even factored-in in your agitation but then it would have been late. I know voices like mine are often loathed and cursed by IPOBians but some of us who know the truth can no longer keep quiet while you drag us all into avoidable chaos. I owe our people the truth as I see it. Curse me all you want, it's OK. Umunnem, ka ako’n’uche na udo chianu biko! Patience solves all things, with time. Let our people think again and know what is looming. Stop your facebook and social media vituperations, cursing, grand standing and join me to educate others. De-escalate this situation and speak words of kindness to others. Even mighty America de-escalates after tensions with Russia. It’s called wisdom. North Korea provokes South Korea most times but the South always de-escalates tensions knowing that the North hasn’t got anything to lose in the event of war but beautiful South Korea will lose quite a lot. In our case, all the beautiful houses and streets in Igboland will be razed to the ground. Why should we be starting afresh all the time? It will even be more painful if we lose again as was the case in 1970. As it is, it’s not looking good!".

dats shewn himself,.. promoting his own forum. ever wondered y hez always ftc?

Really? Never thought of that

I AM BEGINNING TO FEEL TRIBALISM/SECTIONALISM AND RELIGIOUS EXTREMISM IS A BIGGER PROBLEM TO NIGERIA THAN CORRUPTION. INFACT, I FEEL CORRUPTION IS FUELED BY THEM.

Ever8054:
he who fights and run away...the saying goes for brave men not cowards like albino KANU...

People who had foresight said that this man will run away in the heat of the battle against him. He has UK passport some foolish men followed him blindly. He who fights and run away ... “Cowards die many times before their deaths;
The valiant never taste of death but once.Of all the wonders that I yet have heard,It seems to me most strange that men should fear;Seeing that death, a necessary end,Will come when it will come.”

otitokoroleti:
he shared blood money

The strategy of the Nigerian government seems great: allow @Nnamdi Kanu run away and become a fugitive from the law.

Any right thinking man should know that if the government wanted to arrest @Nnamdi Kanu, they would have waited for him to show up in court..

The government reasons that, if @Nnamdi Kanu is imprisoned again, he would continue to be a bargaining chip for his handlers, increases his personal profile to the detriment of our collective existence as a Nation and garners undue popularity.

By allowing @Nnamdi Kanu an escape route, the government has scored a major goal: @Nnamdi Kanu will most likely remain in hiding and eventually, ose his relevance amongst his teeming but mostly undiscerning supporters.

At first, @Nnamdi Kanu's misadventures showed that he wanted (begging) to be re-arrested--by openly flouting his bail terms--in order to gain undeserved support. But unfortunately for Nnamdi Kanu, the government up the ante, decided to move-in the soldiers, and knowing that @Nnamdi Kanu does not really wants to "die" for his beliefs nor even "really liked" the prison, they intimidated him and he ran for cover, just as a coward like himself was expected to do.

At the end, good people of Ndigbos and other reasonable Nigerians are the real winners. Congratulations to us all, for not allowing a demented, slowpoke with his tragic ideology plunge Nigeria into chaos. We cannot afford another civil war!

Long Live Nigeria!

Thank you all for reading.

Peace.

BTW: I will gladly support the division of Nigeria along the six-zone geopolitical regions because, our present presidential system is too costly, not too effective and encourages corruption on a large scale.

From first page to the last , it's been lamentations, wails, chest-beating and even attempt to commit suicide.. THEIR REGULAR TRADEMARK!

I tot u guyz formed human shield which in the end, stopped pythons from gaining entrance. Lots of rogues crafted with liessssss.

My heart to d senseless many, whom have been deceived to go attack pythons for Kanu by those efulefu IPOB miscreants littering our Internet space minutes after minutes.

After they MUST HAVE WARNED THEIR LOVED ONES TO STAY CLEAR OF MILITARY PERSONNEL PRESENCE, they will come on nairaland, rant, wail and construct all grammatical English language structure to appear learned before frail brains, quoting laws upon laws with the view to deceiving the gullible many to not only go confront but to also provoke a group of trained and organized armed personnel with tree branches, bottle bombs, stones, broken bottles, charm , cutlasses and even waist belt.

What a bile ladened heart they've got!

Heartless lots who kept their families safe just as Kanu but are far more comfortable encouraging others to go taste death, your Ill purpose won't last long!

EU Condemn And Caution Nigerian Military, Rejects The Declaration of IPOB As A Terrorist Organization

authorityngr.com

Sep 16, 2017 1:00 PM



Following the brutal and inhuman video of the Nigerian army against the invasion, terrorism, and killings of IPOB members,  which has been going viral over the internet. 

The president of the EU commission Mr Jean-Claude Junker has openly made a serious touching statement as well as warning the Nigerian security personnel against their ill hearted and unprofessionalism in handling democratic issues and the rights of the people.

 Junker directed a serious caution towards the Nigerian Military chiefs stating that they must employ every democratic tenet in handling issues that concerns disgruntle and agitations.

“It is the people’s right to agitate and make a request from their government, self-determination is a right enshrined in the United Nation Charta. 

"The people of BIAFRA have every right to request for a referendum, they have been in this struggle for a while now they have never killed or shot a bullet instead they are the victims of attacks and murder. 

"The entire EU hereby condemn the brutal attack on IPOB members and leadership under the pretentious disguise of a military exercise (Operation Python Dance) Nigerian military is warned to adopt democratic tenets in handling citizens. 

"The EU will not sit and watch things go undemocratic in the largest economy of the West African region".

Furthermore, Mr Junker has promised to raise the issues concerning the people’s request for a REFERENDUM among the caucus of the EU. 

He further stated that the Biafra request for A referendum is no different from that of the Catalonians and the Britain. 

Nigeria government must rise above insubordination and handle issues with every tenet of maturity and democracy.

chelsea4su:
See ur head

Like your own.

HungerBAD:
Wow.

Did not take long for the Headquarters of Biafra to be abandoned. So those " Biafra Secret Service" and those Ariaria trained "Commandos" abandoned Ship?

And just like his business venture in the UK, he has failed once again in life.

Why the illiterates chose this uneducated dropout out as their leader is a little puzzling.

I guess people that fail in life attract each other.

Some comments i read here is unbelievable. Somebody even mentioned 20 Billion in damages lol. For a place not befitting a Hen House?but is a Palace in the land of the illiterate Kanu and his followers.

And who will compensate those that own the Mosques and Northern businesses burned down in Abia?who will pay for the Police Station burnt?who will pay for the wide lootings by IPOB members in the East?who will pay for the destruction of lives and properties in Rivers by IPOB followers?

This is the highest number of likes and one of the most sensible comments I have read in years!

Kudos to you my guy

greatiyk4u:
Hmmmmmmm


So where is Nnamdi Kanu and his Family?

The pig has abandoned his struggle just like Ojukwu abandoned his people at the war front like a coward

nwabobo:
Tinubu wore Iro ati Buba and escaped from Abacha through Cotonou, he's a hero today.
El Rufai pretended to be a student and escaped when Yaradua wanted his head, today he's a governor.
Kayode Fayemi dressed like a fisherman and escaped through Ịdị iroko to continue with his radio � Kudirat attack outside the country and many millionaires but........
Today, all the worshippers of the above heroes want Nnamdi to confront armoured cars with a stick so as to be seen as a strong man.

People like Sarrki, Tonyebarcanista, Abagworo and Omenka and others who wanted to see somebody in a where barrow like El-Zakzaky were disappointed and heartbroken.


So if you are one of those wishing Kanu got the El-zalzacky treatment so you can celebrate, 

******holding my two lower eye lids with each of my index finger while my tongue is out********

Mmeeeeeeeeeeee, Ntooooooor!!

I thought your hero vowed never to abandon his struggle like a chicken and coward which he is! Predictable, as a conman like his brother Ojukwu, he ran away.
He promised to fight with the last drop of his blood! Shame on Cownu the conman. Once again, he has proved his likes from the yEast are nothing but pigs
RIP Cownu, hell and fury awaits you

Hennynitan17:

Will u be d first man at the war front?

The agitation has been peaceful and wasn't heading towards an all out war! In a more civilised society, a referendum would have been the reasonable thing to do not an invasion and killing of innocent civilians. Do you know this invasion is enough to encourage them to pick up arms?

talking like a kid just to get 'likes' from nairaland kids

Talking like a pig just to get likes from nairaland pigs

This is total violation of human right
But there is a saying that goes "He who fight and run away lives to fight another day".
Watch how kanu will bounce back with full undisputed spirit and take this tyrant we call president by surprise...

Bounce back to where?
The pig is enjoying his money now. Poor pigs like you are just there roasting on nairaland

DrGoodman:
And the man defeated the government in court, they have to use brute force to silence him, but for how long?

Every one has seen the truth, this whole brutality was to silence the truth.

please I am interested in this, which court is that? and what was the verdict because the last time I checked kanu nnnamdiot was only granted bail with conditions which he can't even keep to.

The truth is that a coward always find reasons not to do a battle.

And the question is; how many fight for survival battle have you partook in?

Keep calling Yoruba's Afonjas, Ewedu Muslim Cowards, but I know Any Yoruba Man to be wiser not to bring this 21st century Mandela wannabe political Thug Disaster on is people. I thought KANU had Bodyguards That are Commandos. the Igbo's used against the Yorubas in Ladipo Market. Am just asking Days of Biafra war is Gone, Hausa No Mumu again if your people are been cheated ask your Elders your Leaders who might have trade your rights to enrich themselves.

How else can Binta save face and allow the shame of the government loss of the case if not to issue some obnoxious rules from the wish list of the government.

When the government is losing, they discharged Nnamdi Kanu and hoped to trap him.

These are the people you are comparing with.....

Nnamdi Kanu - Twice University drop-out; mental health patient collecting jobless welfare in London turned into self-appointed "Supreme Leader" and "Rabbi" of Biafra?

If Nnamdi kanu can run away... . i wud neva have blvd this if someone had said it...
But it is the gullible and brainwashed ones that cud sacificed there lives...

This only shows Those who confronted the soldiers r even more brave than the ones with the needless and useless titles..
He can only talk and talk and talk and even more talk but wen it comes to wen it matters most he fled like a church rat...

My brother, you have spoken well, even Ikemba his grand father ran for his dear life. I just pity the pawn soldier who die for nothing.

victorvezx:
The soldiers no get joy at all. They even kill Kanu dog sef. I remember when Kanu said anybody that come to arrest him will not leave Biafraland alive, but the army have come and even turned his palace to their play ground and he ran away, he has not been seen till this moment.

Idiotic chest-beating.

Maybe he has headed to Lagos or Kaduna to "shut it down and take the battle to them" as he boasted, they are just lying that he ran for his life?
