This way or that way, dialogue is best

From you utterances you people are ignorant of what your own Ohanaeze Ndigbo have been saying and doing concerning relationship with SouthSouth. I am only responding to the unity what Ohanaeze guys have been suggesting. Thats why am saying all these things about strategy which I buy into looking at the big picture. It is no skin off my nose if you people reject unity. What is for sure is that your Biafra can not live in isolation. No way. At some point, you have to dialogue or seek cooperation with your neighbours. Thats when you will see how shortsighted your stand is for now.
Amadi, I dont think I accept your position. In these days of high technology in warfare, threat can come from any where. Not neccessarily from those you share border with. In anycase Igbos will still be part of Republic of Rivers. Since Obigbo, Egbema etc are Igbos. So what if Igbos decide to infiltrate from Obigbo or Egbema. What are you going to do? What if Republic of Rivers constitute a threat to Biafra through some Egbema and Oguta people who claim not to be Igbos
Thats why my stand remains that whether Biafra or no Biafra, Rivers Republic or no Rivers Republic, Niger Delta or No Niger Delta, there has to be dialogue at some point among the people of the old East.
You guys can rubbish my opinion if you like but any sensible person will understand what am saying.

re Get it right !

hahahaha! Oh you want to co-exist with your enemies in other to protect River state republic from external aggression? You did not even think if your enemies decided not to co-exist with you, what will be your faith? Oh boy are you well a tall? When you entrusted the safety of your nation on your enemies, what could be the result? Amadi i advice you to go & see your doctor, is not by force you must post something here.

Amadi

Amadi is it a must that you must comment on every issue even at a time you seemed to be totally confused? Can’t you reserve restraints on issues above your comprehension instead of voicing out self-defeatist statements continually? I have been reading your recent comments and sometimes wonder if you are under alcohol influence at a time you wrote them.

My guy, you must be a good political analyst or strategist before breaking the jinx in Nigeria political highway. You are educated though. But, made in Nigeria politics you do not have the knowledge at present. You need more education on history to equate and defend your perceived republic from contradictory utterances.

You may decide to learn more before continuing or better still continue making yourself a hollow of mockery with things you say here. Chinda is not a bad teacher if you really want to improve.

Get it right !

The Republic of Rivers state will be absolutely a new nation that emerges from the present Rivers state. It has no issue with Biafra or Niger Delta. We prefer staying in a fiscal nigerian federation to Biafra where Igbos will dominate or in Niger Delta republic where Ijaws will dominate. And in this new political structure, military threat against Republic of Rivers state is more likely to come from Biafra and Niger delta than from the north. The north cannot attack us without a base from our neighbors since we don't have direct link with the north.The emerging southern nations like Biafra, Republic of Rivers state , Niger delta(Whatever), etc. can form a mutual union for co-existence and against outside oppressors or invaders.

Odogwu Nwa

Thank you very much my brother, Asaba suffered highest genocide during Biafra war, i have said this here many times while some people failed to understand. How cant we leave what we fought & died for? (Tufiakwa, adighi emeya eme). We knew our root (IGBO) is unchangeable.
For those who are looking for people they will use to hide their atrocities committed against igbo's during & after the civil war will never use my people of Asaba or to hide under us(aru), we are victim of that evil act & will never be a party to cover it. An evil is an evil whether you committed it against your blood brother or someone else. I don't see anything bad in paying back of what you damaged or what you acquired illegally, is there in the holy book Bible (nkwughachi), denying your root & identity cannot cover your wrong activities, the dead body you thought you have berried the legs are still showing. Kama mu ga eriju afo we dachuzo, oka mma iburu onu.

ODOGWU NWA, I AM PROUD OF YOU !!

Odogwu Nwa. People like you make me to walk tall like a giant whenever I read a comment like yours. It is very important to know and be proud of where one comes from, irrespective of sentiment and pride. Legend Robert Nester Marley ( Bob Marley) said in his song titled the Buffalo Soldier, he said that if you know your history, then you know where you are coming from. You are a true son of Igbo land and 100% Biafran citizen without any clause. Right from time your people has been showing the true Igbo blood in them both in words and actions. You need not to tell anyone where you people would be when Biafra is actualized. Because your fathers and mothers as the true Igbo believers fought gallantly for the independence of Biafra, they didn’t fight as mercenaries, but as the Igbo and Biafra citizens.

I thank you once again for making your point clear and known, Whenever our fatherland the Biafra is actualized , my dear be very bold and proud to claim whatever that belongs to you. We have no majority or minority in our Igbo tribe. Some people are making that statement in act of inferiority complex that they are assumed the minority Igbo. Nonsense!!!

If your people can recall what and how many men and women they lost during the civil war, they would have hated their fellow Igbos with great passion, but due to that love in brotherhood you people overlook all those lost and embraced us their people with love and regards. Others because of jealous and ignorance hated their people with so many flimsy excuses.

What I strongly believe is that you cannot force any relationship on someone and expect a pleasant future. That is exactly the big sickness that is crippling Nigeria today. Belonging is by choice and not by force. Whosever that believes that he/she is an Igbo/Biafra is welcomed to the Biafra nation, anyone who feels otherwise should stay wherever that pleases him/her. Otu Nkwo market Onitsha does not notice the absence of a single trader.

Odogwu Nwa you and all the Biafra believers/citizens should pray every morning for the Igbo/Biafra nation, and then sing this our Biafra National anthem before leaving for his/her daily business. After the national anthem then you end it with this word. God the creator that was never created, let your purpose of creating Biafra and her citizens never go on fulfilled, Bless our fatherland and his neighbors in jesus’s name .Amen.

THE BIAFRA NATIONAL ANTHEM !!!

Land of the rising sun, we love and cherish,
Beloved homeland of our brave heroes;
We must defend our lives or we shall perish,
We shall protect our hearth from all our foes;
But if the price is death for all we hold dear,
Then let us die without a shred of fear.

Hail to Biafra, consecrated nation,
Oh fatherland, this be our solemn pledge:
Defending thee shall be a dedication,
Spilling our blood we’ll count a privilege;
The waving standard which emboldens the free
Shall always be our flag of liberty.

We shall emerge triumphant from this ordeal,
And through the crucible unscathed we’ll pass;
When we are poised the wounds of battle to heal,
We shall remember those who died in mass;
Then shall our trumpets peal the glorious song
Of victory we scored o’er might and wrong.

Oh God, protect us from the hidden pitfall,
Guide all our movements lest we go astray;
Give us the strength to heed the humanist call:
‘To give and not to count the cost" each day;
Bless those who rule to serve with resoluteness,
To make this clime a land of righteousness.

God the creator that was never created, let your purpose of creating Biafra and her citizens never go on fulfilled, Bless our fatherland and his neighbors in Jesus name .Amen.


MAZI NWADURU IS FOR THE BIAFRA, AND WHAT ABOUT YOU?


LONG LIVE MY BIAFRA.


LONG LIVE MY FELLOW CITIZENS/COMRADES.


LONG LIVE THE BIAFRA NATION.

Up Biafra

Mr Chinda let us leave the issue of River state & Igbo unity or whatever, nature & necessity will likely to settle us as Kendo said & that is the only option. Be focused on what you wants & strategize on how to get it. Igbo nation Biafra, we don't need assistance from River state republic or Niger Delta republic to get it. We are going according to the UN charter of self determination. Biafra was already existed country which was recognized by some other countries of the world, if you go to Israel & provide the prove of your MASSOB full membership they give you pepper for stay which they cannot do if you present green passport. So Biafra struggle has gone far beyond what Ikwere or River state republic even Niger Delta republic can help. What we are doing is to relunch back existed nation.

The unity you are talking about has no bases, i said so because you failed to clarify the bases of the unity. You & Amadi wants River state republic UN charter should be your guardian on that not undefined unity with Ndigbo, undefined unity is the problem is what every one us is facing in Nigeria today. Ndigbo wants Biafra Igbo nation of which we have gone far in sanitizing the hole world about relunching back of Biafra nation. Biafra Igbo nation cannot be compromised, i mean is a task that must be done. We have our embassy in NEW YORK in United states, & so-many other branches, Ndigbo recorded all this alone without the help of River state republic neither Niger Delta republic. Mr Chinda & Amadi your focus now should be on how to actualize your River State republic, allow nature & necessity to take care of our unity, it can never work canaly because both of us have different goals & targets to achieve. As Agu Kendo always says that we shall meet in the tunnel then necessity will take it course, is just a simple logic.

Long Live Biafra
Long Live Igbo bu Igbo
Long Live our well Wishers

Igbo is one people

Anybody counting on Niger Delta republic with Igbos in Delta state is time wasting. We fought for Biafra, died for it and have not lost our identity as Igbos. Let this be known to illusionary crusaders.

Chinda Chinda

My point is that I will find it difficult to trust people like you again.
Imagine Amadi turning to be a preacher like CPC candidate?
If you are onye Igbo, then you are Onye Igbo and if you are not, then you are not Onye igbo period. If you are my brother and attack me, I will treat you like my enemy. Got it.

Amadi and Igbo hate

Amadi like Chinda said can you tell us who borders your Rivers Republic in the west and Thr south?

Then tell us where Calabar and Akwa Ibom are located?

When you have done your maths if you are any good at it, your geography and history of certain ethnic groups contained in these areas which you conveniently overlooked then you begin to understand where the proper rain will start to beat you.

Perhaps you will do a rethink when you realise how vulnerable your vaunted republic will be.

I Mara asu I suo n'ikwe ma na I maghi asu I suo na apata. Anaghi agwa ochi nti na ahia esu la. Ka o diba.

Ubochi nta achuo na owere nchi.

Looking into possibilities in the future

You need to consider all scenarios. Let us consider a situation where Nigeria split into four countries namely; Biafra, Arewa, Oduduwa and Niger Delta or Republic of Rivers. What if the Arewa form alliance with Oduduwa to exploit the oil fields of Niger Delta. What if they say to Arewa, or Arewa say to them please let us possess the oil fields of the Niger Delta for our mutual benefit. This type of thing although is not likely is a possibility if we continue to go by the quarelling and the disunity in the old East. Even in the Niger Delta, what make you think that the Urhobo tribe or Itshekiri or Bini tribe cannot grant military base to the North or Oduduwa or Biafra to attack Republic of Rivers state. Is Niger Delta made up of one people? Is republic of Rivers state made up of one people? Obigbo people which you say is boundary, are they not Igbo people?
My point is that the wahala will never end once it starts. The best thing is to for the old East to unite or to reach mutual agreement. I am certain that the oil wealth will cause serious trouble if Nigeria continues to go on like this

Correction

Igbo man did not abandoned his heard earned properties to any lazy & envious people.The records are well packaged & kept. Every day is for the criminal but one day is for the owner. Ubosi aka ga akpara ezekwu udele okwuo mmuo chiri ya ozo. The Bible says that when a criminal is cough he, she,or them will pay back in seven folds.

Ofeke Ofeke

If my brother who betrayed me before wants a reconciliations, he should be the first to make a move by restating what actually is the corse of the first problem. Yes, it is easy to forgive but not easy to forget. He who forget past stand to repeat himself.

Ofeke


You have gone from being a trouble maker to being funny. Everywhere you are seeing betrayal. Every place you see who offended you. Do I start listing the names of those killed in Biafran raids of Isiokpo this one you are talking of who got into Umuahia through a hospital to attack you. My dear brother, I still want you to be realistic. Stop chasing shadows. Go and read what your brothers Ezinwanne and Onuma have written. Even though I dont agree with everything they said, they sound more matured and foreward looking. You talk as if you are still at the war front. Who are you fighting with please? Why have you cemented yourself in the past? This is 2012 not 1968 my man
Another reason you are funny to me is that first you called me a suicide bomber, now I have become a trained agent of distabilization whao was sent by IBB and working with Asari.
Hahahahahaha. Thats a nice one. Chief Ofeke, please state to me what we did to your people that you wont let me hear word. How did we betray your people? Yes, lets talk about it. Give me instances. Give me examples of what we did wrong to you people that you are continuosuly misinterpreting my call for unity as a begging for reconciliation. When did charting a new political destination an act of betrayal? When you are exposed to and consumed with propaganda, you start believeing it. Nwanyi na ata nchikiri ukwa, amaghi mgbe oji ata nshi ewu. Thats what my mother used to say. The woman that constantly eat breadfruit seeds, does not realize when she eat goat droppings. Be realistic my friend. You are missing the point

The future in view

Republic of Rivers state will not have direct boundary with the north,hence , the issue of the north invading Republic of Rivers state to claim oil field is unimaginable and impossible. Second, with the possible emergence of several nations, it is unlikely that the north will be militarily and economically strong enough to invade and oppress others. Remember, the north did not fight the civil war alone. It was a combined force of north, southwest and western world. The recent episode of Jonathan capturing power as a result of southern solidarity against northern solidarity portrays the fact that the north will be in all spheres handicapped if none of the regions from the south is in support of the north.
If there will be any invader on the Republic of Rivers state after seperation , it will be the people of Niger Delta and Biafra.Remember the Igbos are claiming that Ikwerre is Igbo and that they have their properties or whatever in Port Harcourt. The north will surely need a base from the south before it can invade Republic of Rivers state. If the Niger deltans and Biafrans did not give them such a base it will be very difficult. And as earlier mentioned, there will be no basis for that since there is no direct link between the two.
