Op, u mean to say the yorubas are fighting with the igbos in Uk. Cos they want the igbos to live Nigeria with immediate effect. First and foremost, I don't like the fact that you guys are watching your dirty lingerie outside the shores of Nigeria, and secondly WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS TWO TRIBES? What happened to the part where we can all live as ONE. Why can't you all behave like the warrifians, who consider themselves as one despite the fact that there are comprises of so many ethnic group. |

Brijet: Living as 'one' is not something that should not be 'enforced', it is something that should be by free choice. Even a man gets down on one knee to ask a woman to be 'one' with him. The Igbo/Yoruba/ Hausa man lived thousands of years in west Africa without being 'one' and they didn't kill each other. Because Lugard came 100 years ago to tell these people that they are 'one', all three have been fighting and killing each other in the millions since then. That should tell anyone who has a brain something important It should be noted that this brawl stated by the OP happend in 1968. 6 Likes |

kingzizzy: Abeg, sharap jo!!! We all had a chance to live separately before independence at The Lancaster House Conferences in London 1957 and 1958 but greedy ibos who were lustfully dreaming of dominating One Nigeria insisted that we should all live as one, impishingly chanting "Zik of Africa", mr.

Too many ignorant kids on nairaland. Zambia was one of the four countries that recognised Biafra during the war and this report happened during that period not a recent event. 4 Likes |
