Afriifa:I was constructively definitive, history is a providence in itself and the equanimity of its facts and chronicles should as such be sacrosanct in its presentations. Without a Jaja of Opobo who happened to be birthed as an Igbo man, there would be no significant Ijaw history. 6 Likes 1 Share |

"In an authoritative and detailed memorandum on the background, cause and consequences of the Nigerian civil war issued in November 1968 by more than sixty British subjects, including Sir Robert Stapleton, the last British governor of the Eastern region( 1959-60), it was concluded that of the 37 percent of the population which they estimated that minority group represented in Biafra, only 10% would favour continued association with the federal government".

Udo-Affiah Yenegoa Chief Frank Opigo ==== Take a look at Biafra provinces. It satisfied all the non Igbo Easteners yearned for in the willink report. 2. It freed the Eastern smaller non Igbo groups from the Ijaw and Ibibio/Annang/Efik " domination" by giving them new provinces away from those two bigger non-Igbo groups. These arrangements were made by the people, the Eastern consultative assembly, not some greedy Odua-Arewa people licking their lips over the Eastern region oil wealth.

The unprecedented mingling of all groups and settling of many minority people in the Ibo heartland during the course of the war was simply taken for granted. Nonetheless, the Biafran regime was unreservedly committed to plebiscites in any disputed areas within Biafra, or on borders, so that people involved could determine their allegiance. It was proposed that these plebiscites be conducted under international( UN or O.A.U)supervision, and with adequate safeguard against punitive retaliation At no point were the minorities held in Biafra against their own wish. Ojukwu was always open to a UN supervised plebiscite in minority areas of Biafra, to prove to the world that the minorities were not being held against their own will. Gowon and Yoruba media propaganda knowing that the outcome of such plebiscite wouldn't favor Nigeria, rejected the offer. Biafra was a joint venture of all Eastern groups. Everyone was involved. Kogbara,an Ogoni man was Biafra foreign affair minister in UK, Opigo from Yenegoa was an Ijaw chief who suggested the name Biafra during Eastern region consultative assembly meetings, Opigo was also the Administrator of Yenegoa province of Biafra. We have the likes of Mbu, prof Bassey, etc, all playing prominent roles. Okonkon Ndem who MNK is mimicking today with his Radio Biafra, was from Akwa cross too and played vital role. Rex Lawson an Ijaw man helped too. It is true that Failure is an Orphan, so immediately Biafra started losing, many minorities jumped ship and left Ndiigbo to deal with the aftermath of Biafra, they also went about doctoring the history of their involvement in Biafra effort to present themselves as a people held hostage by Ndiigbo during Biafra and not as willing partners in the Biafra struggle in other to warm their way to the hearts of the Yoruba/Arewa led new Nigeria. This to me is a betrayal that no Igbo should ever forget. The above is also why I insist that Biafra must not have non Igbo clans in it ever again. In fact I hate any Igbo that suggest having minorities in future Biafra. It depicts lack of knowledge of our history and disregard of the injury multiethnic Biafra inflicted on Ndiigbo and is capable of inflicting in the future. A nation is only as strong as the loyalty and unalloyed patroitisn of its constituent groups, the minorities are a liability as far as building a strong impregnable Biafra is concerned. Those including them in Biafra don't mean well for Ndiigbo. 9 Likes |
