Considering that Nigeria's economy was largely agricultural based at the time of the civil war, why did Biafra require food aid ?

Where they not farming or where they dependent on food imports from across Nigeria ?

"E bin pawa" crooner on the beat

There is no civil war in Nigeria right now but "E bin pawa" cries is the loudest in South west .

And to think that the world most useless president of Nigeria is from south west makes it worse and funnier

That is what happens when people are addicted to quick gains. Who wants to farm when you can make quicker returns from trading?
Intelligent folks like the Ukrainians are in the middle of one of the most brutal wars since 1945 and they are still exporting food.
So much for folks who claim to be the smartest black people.

turn the tables around wolobas wount survive the food blockade o sure ju.

Dominant soil in the SE region is Red soil (Mud or Clay) Clay is not stable neither is it fertile for agriculture. They become water logged and deprive plant of oxygen needed to grow.

So prior to the war, the SE depended on food from other parts of Nigeria.

Did Ojukwu not factor this critical aspect before declaring independence ?

Use your brains before you open such thread. It does not matter how much you farm, or how large your food production is, once you are displaced by war , you will face hunger and famine. Even the farmer producing the food is running from bullets and bombs and cannot farm

Escravos swamp 🐷 pig is here to give his fellow pigs some dose of anti-Biafran sentiments as famine relief. Let's see how it works.

So everywhere was under attack throughout the war with no front?

Try another lie

Ukraine is still farming to the west while the liberated regions in the East have since restarted farming.

Was there no front or where Nigerian troops roaming everywhere throughout the war ?

Same as not everywhere in Nigeria is under attack but warehouses, trucks and even farms are being looted for food despite no war in those places

Please lets not trivialise what killed 3 million human beings...

The main food baskets in the north are under severe attack.

You were not food sufficient before the war

Ukraine despite thousands of them being displaced is not facing hunger and famine. Infact, a lot of Ukrainians are displaced all over Europe and North America, yet they are still exporting food.

I have never heard farms being bombed in the SE during the war, if you have pictures, let's see.

You can not compare the Biafra civil war with Ukraine. The Biafra war was far more brutal. The deliberate bombing of civilians were well recorded. Even hospitals were bombed, how much more expecting farmers to farm. Igbo is no found wanting in hard work. The SE refined their petrol. Produced armoured tanks and several other feats. Ojikwu did not declare war. It was forced on the SE

The area occupied by the Palestine is known as the fertile crescent because it is suitable for agriculture. Why is there hunger and starvation in Gaza?

The war in Ukraine is being fought in the East and south of the country. Not the entire Ukraine

But the same set of people saying this. are saying another in the issue of Ukraine, you are unstable.

Gaza is the most heavily populated place on the planet.

An area less than 45 square kilometre housing 2.5milliin people.

Where is the space for farming ?

Nah only God can deliver you people from your self induced slavery to your own fellow mankind.

Those of you engaging the op, I hope you're eating something nice while sipping chilled wine as you discuss events of the past while op and his people are crying under hunger today. That's the best way to engage him. Today's reality is that the evil contraption is under severe lack of food and at the precipice. Nothing the hate filled op says can save the situation so you should engage him without attaching much to whatever he writes.

The land is barren. That's why they rely on the North for all the food stuffs and raw materials for their industries.

This is their kind of soil. Red mud, potopoto and water logged

No you're asking it because you want to excite ethnic tensions. Anyway that's your right. What do I care?

Operation Cyber Polygon is a go.

Not only META, but other major social media outfits are down.

They predicted this because they planned it.


Get ready.


Someone create a thread on this as I can't .
