South South And Biafra by Ghengiskhan(m): 6:37am On Aug 24, 2020
Looking at the current state of affairs in Nigeria is Biafra possible without the South South state ?

The reason why I'm asking this is because it's only the people in South East states that are agitating for Biafra even though some part of the South South states are part of Igbo land.

Let's educate ourselves and have a matured argument..please no name calling

the truth is many southern Nigeria group are cowards ....they all want what Biafra is pushing for themselves too but are pretending that they don't care

give ipob referendum and watch almost all zones call for same

me personally I don't want south south in Biafra ...I don't want people that would cry marginalization when there is none like they did in the old eastern region , I don't want people that won't like merit based government , don't want anything like zoning cause we would be one ethnic group

Mostly what I see in the news and read. I haven't heard or seen Ipob protest/march in agbor , warri or Calabar. I was in Calabar and Uyo 5 years ago no one was talking about it there.

you should know that SS and SE is 2 different zones and cannot be merged together. What we are agitating for is NIGER DELTA REPUBLIC and we have no association with South East. What South East is fighting for is BIAFRA and they have no association with us. We have divergent interest so don't lump us into South east interest.

I appreciate your input you made good points and I want to talk about 2.
1)
Without South South state I believe Biafra will be landlocked is not better to form Biafra which includes at least rivers state?
2)
Igbo presidency or referendum which should be southeast politicians priority?

Please, leave these Igbos and their confused Biafra agendum. They always insult anyone who has a dissenting view. They're calling parts of SS "Igbo and Biafra land" and one even naively talked about merit based system and one ethnicity". The same problem faced in this useless shithole called Nigeria would spring its head. They think secession is only championed by them. Ask them of the first secessionist, Isaac Jasper Adaka Boro, and they're ignorant of what to say. No parts of SS is Igbo or Biafra. That you share same language structure doesn't make you same. In not so distant years ago, the Igbos were slaves to the South South tribes...and to date, they are mostly househelps or married off, pregnant, to very old men in the Niger Delta. If one region breaks off, other regions would automatically break off. It's common sense. Check former USSR. Also, the Igbos are landlocked. They need the Niger Deltans to survive. It's the reality. And instead of looking for ways to negotiate their survival, they spew bitter words at people who aren't losing sleep over them. Tueh

1) land locked ? ...we have rivers running go the Atlantic ocean ...no nation can stop us from using them ...there are several example in the world ...from South America to Europe ...it's our right ......Igbo land is perfect ...abia has point closer to the ocean than warri and port Harcourt ports


2) both are chased by different groups ....Igbo presidency for Igbo's who believe Nigeria can still work that they just have to show igbos are accepted and treated like equal ...this set believes Nigeria can work and referendum by people who have given up on the Nigeria issue ...this class believe 1) igbos are not liked in Nigeria and would never be liked
2) igbos can't reach full potential in Nigeria that Nigeria is holding us back 3) that the fulanis want to take over Nigeria and the only way to be safe is independence 4) they believe igbos are intentionally targeted n brought down for progressing


after 2023 one of this two groups would grow greatly ....it's Nigeria's choice to decide which

firstly I doubt if u are south south ...but if u are shame on u

no part of south south is Igbo ? really ? even the sub groups who still have half of their brothers in imo and abia ?

Igbo need niger Delta to survive ? ...Igbo land is landlocked ?

I have always said igbos made bad political calculations in 2011 ...I was in first year , I told my elder brothers ...we a giving up our chance to be president for the ijaws ...same people that have betrayed us over and over again ....if it get to our town can they do the same ?

growing up in Port Harcourt I knew most south south were envious of igbos , but most igbos didn't know , but the truth is coming out .....the day south south back stab igbos again ...that day you would know the true meaning of majority tribe and minority tribe

Biafra is simply igboland

From Enugu in the North to Aba in the South, from arochukwu far East down to igbanke down West .

Note: this will exclude Ikwerrres

We don't need anybody to survive even with our 5 states.

You are the one displaying ignorance here, if I said Biafra will be landlocked did I say you don't have river or can't have port ?
Allow me to school you, those rivers pass through another country that country controls the access to the big water if that country refuse you use of it you can't go anywhere.
The only way flight can enter Biafra will be through the big country again the big can stop Biafra from using it airspace which is completely legal. Is mainly because of these 2 reason I'm worried about Biafra . I am pro redrawing of borders because the colonial power put different people together for their selfish interest.
I'm not against Ipob or Biafra I want them to succeed
