With what is happening in the countries in the sahel region, one can assert that these states are tired of the colonial greed.

The west will always say they are will protect their interest on other countries, but this is to the detriment of the countries they colonised.

The west will never allow any progressive Africa country to go far, so they will always depend on them.

Have we asked why Nigeria a major oil producing nation, but cant refine any crude oil?

What of power, we rarely generate more than 4000 MW..

What do you think...?

This is so...so they can sell their products to Nigeria to the detriment of the people.

Most people think that Biafra war was a war between Nigeria and Biafran people...It is not...

It was a war between the western world an Biafrans, forget about the lame support from France.

One of the Western statesman said that they don't want another Japan in Africa...

They know the Biafrans are gifted like them in technology so they gave Nigeria more weapons then they required for the war...

When they couldn't win, they sent those giant people from Niger republic...when that also failed they now resort to blockade..

Imagine if Nigeria had used all the tech developed by Biafrans...then who would buy the ones the westerners will sell?

Don't you see how they dislike the Chinese?

Take a look...

"during the civil war for instance, when the Biafrans were confined to their territory, they had no option than to device a means of survival and they were able to manufacture bombs, mines, refine petroleum products, and other technological feats.. Abubakar Tsav (Elder statesman and former Commissioner of Police in Lagos State

"...failure to accept the Biafran technology after the war and the successive corrupt leadership Nigeria has had over the years have been responsible for the country’s poor development indices..." Tsav

“We never attained that because we are not united, we are corrupt and selfish. If we had tapped the ingenuity of the Biafrans, those inventions, etc, Nigeria would have been far ahead than what we are today, but unfortunately, corruption came in because everybody wanted to make money for himself; that is why we are in this sorry state now..." Tsav

"Nigeria should have absorbed Biafra’s military industrial complex. Dismantle it was a mistake. Biafra was surrounded, yet made weapons and refined fuel. Nigeria isn’t surrounded, yet we dont make weapons or refine fuel! We could have used their technology for Nigeria’s greatness.."
Reno Omokri

Fact! I love the third paragraph mostly, they will love seeing us be in problem let alone thinking of progress for ourselves.

same biafrans that Benjamin killed like flies?
or the one that couldn't feed themselves and depended on Nigeria for food?

After you destroyed everything the Biafrans did, you have not manufactured a pin till today more than 50 years now...

...cut off from the rest of the world, the ingenuity of the Igbo came to the fore during the civil war as they constructed the Uli airstrip and when that airstrip was bombed, they repaired it in record time and under the most trying circumstances. They would go on to repair Uli not once and not twice..."

(https://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/08/igbo-blessing-nigeria/)

The Igbos refined petrol from a variety of non fossil fuels, including from but not limited to palm products (from which they also produced diesel) and manufactured surface to air missiles which they also adapted to surface to surface missiles (theOgbunigwe).

They converted commercial planes to fighter jets and weaponized them. That was no mean feat in 1967. (Vangurdnewspaper)

...In fact, the first indigenous armored personnel carrier in Black Africa is the Red Devil, built by the Igbos during the Nigerian Civil War..." Vangurdnewspaper.

It might not be too late to use these people...Pride will not let Nigeria to do this...

Some one was mentioning Benjamin Adenkunle...haa..

Do you think the western world do not know what the Biafrans can do?

This is how the western world behaves unlike bla8k Africans who wouldrather destroy than build..

In an operation code named Operation Paperclip, 1500 German scientists, engineers and technicians were airlifted to the United States and given US permanent US residency and citizenship immediately after the defeat of Germany in 1945. The primary aim of Operation Paperclip was to prevent these skilled men and women from falling into Soviet Russian hands. (Vangurdnewspaper)

Why can’t we do the same in Nigeria? Can you imagine what our technological base would have been if we as a nation had a policy of patronizing the so called Igbo made products right from the end of the war till today? What if we had absorbed the the Research and Production Organisation of Biafra (RAP as it was then known) into the Nigerian Army Corps of Engineers?,...Vanguard.

It is a miracle that INNOSON is still in existence...

They have but killed all eastern companies...

..and the western world are very pleased about this..

flatheadds killed our country with mass importation..

my region is the manufacturing capital of west Africa

Western countries use their greed and self preservation for collection goals by improving standard of living of all their citizens.

Africans or African countries use their greed and self preservation for individual goals by enriching themselves, close associates and immediate families.

So, who will you blame for this? Will you say a greed that improves living standard of their people is bad?

You better leave them alone and face your selfish unapologetic wicked black race you cometh from.

Yes because you strangulated them economically and destroyed their creativeness..


Anyaduba recalled that Biafra also built its own airport, Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC), anti-cholera vaccines and protein packs in order to alleviate the pains of miasmas otherwise known as Kwashiorkor, a protein deficiency disease that ravaged the children of Biafra...."
