According to the Nigerian Vanguard, MASSOB has discovered that the reason for the continued shortage of petroleum products in Biafra was because the large quantity of petroleum products refined in Biafra were being diverted to the northern parts of BiafraNigeria and eventually to Chad and Niger Republics, leaving a negligible quantity that could not meet the demands of Biafra.

All:
What do you think? Should MASSOB actively prevent this open effort by Obasanjo to stifle the economies of Biafra? See story.

What is southern solidarity if resource control is not an issue? Is southern solidarity only about wrestling political power from Abacha?

Resource control and justice to Eastern Nigeria/Biafra reperesents issue of great interest to over half of southern Nigeria so why would it not call for solidarity and support?

Futhermore what is the gain of the south east
or south south in their support of a southern president who acts insensitively to their welfare?Like governor Kalu has said next time the affected parties should rather cast their votes into the atlantic ocean than support a man who does not care about them.

I am not surprise to hear that from a yoruba coward like you. I think the true Igbos learn not to trust any yoruba 34 yes ago. when the most popular Yoruba of them all betrayed Igbos. Today I am hoping that My sibblings from Eastern Minorities will learn the lesson that Igbos have known for over 40 years. which is trust a yoruba at your own risk. See how the the yorubas have abandoned the Niger Deltans in their most critical fight against the 800 hundred pound Gorilla named Obasanjo and Federal Government of Nigeria. Look who is standing behind the Niger Deltans is non other than Igbos of Southeast.

In this short thread, there are several well articulated responses to Kunle's so-called question. But, you have chosen to focus on "hate" (i.e. what you see as hate). Hmmmmmmmm! One wonders.

I don't know what post you are reading, I did not see any attack on Kunle. You also said that kunle only asked a question. I didn't see any question from Kunle. Kunle Stated that Southern Solidarity is not about resource control and Biafra. I will give him one yes southern solidarity may not be about Biafra. Now let me ask you a question since you are Kunle's defense lawyer, If Southern solidarity is not about resource control and restructuring of Nigeria what are we then wasting our time and Biafra time talking about southern solidarity.

Interestingly, both of you are pro-Nigeria, and its not surprising that you have become Kunle's self-appointed defense lawyers.
If your client is a resident of US and is ignorant of what southern solidarity is, then he has no defense. He's accustomed to spewing nonsense smack on tribal hypocrisy. The minute Sege is out of power, he'll start singing about sovereign national confrence. With two-faced neighbor like this in southern solidarity, who needs Hausa/Fulani enemy. If he's befuddled about southern solidarity, how can you engage in one with him?

Very well said.This southern solidarity thing is a hoax to safeguard Obasanjo's illegitimate rule.Had the president been a non south westerner I doubt any of the south west governors would attend any such meeting.

I still will give Tinubu some benefit of doubt, coming events will finally reveal the hypocrisy of the rest.

Thanks for your responses to this thread. While Ednut's counsel is timely, it is heartening to know that all well-meaning Igbos have rejected the early attempts to lump MASSOB with terrorist organizations such as OPC and APC. It is no coincidence that even Ohaneze now realizes the consequences of its earlier efforts to distance itself from MASSOB.

I hope that all of of you have noticed the biased manner in which the anti-Biafra press reports events affecting MASSOB. Every crime perpetrated against MASSOB is reported as an "alleged" crime. But, every unfounded allegation against MASSOB is presented as fact. We shall remain vigillant.

It is MASSOB's right to engage in any form of non-violent direct action in the struggle to actualize Biafra. We shall thwart any effort to paint these activities as illegal or unconstitutional. Our opponents in BiafraNigeria know that the law, even the so-called laws of BiafraNigeria are on MASSOB's side.

I couldn't agree with you more, in some circles among the socalled moderate Igbo the word Biafra is still to heavy in their mouth. They think that if they support MASSOB or Biafra their bosses and masters in Federal Government of Nigeria will remove their food plate.
