Bro Biafra,
A hefty thanks to you. Any commendation and trophy belongs to you and the rest of our board family members. We are all so intertwined in our efforts to bring the plights of Biafra to the world fore that my contribution wouldn't have been possible without your inputs, contributions, and dedication. Therefore, I believe that any positive re-inforcement brought my way is thus, for all you dedicated Biafrans everywhere.

Unu nwe aka a.

Big Brother Waypoint 1,
How can I forget you??? Each time I get a compliment as "lady Biafra", I toast you silently for this beautiful baptismal name that you bestowed on me.

Though I may not have voiced it, please know that I've always appreciated and admired your teasing, jokes, and yes, your "fire brigade" views against that evil empire called Nigeria.

How can I forget you??? You teased me to uncontrollable bouts of laughter regarding our nutty Ednut in the hay days of this great board.

Now that "lady Biafra" is stuck on me, you are stuck on me, too. Thus, everything that comes my way as lady Biafra belongs to you. Thank you!

Oke nwanyi. What else can I say that has not been said. Despite all odds, the personal attacks, the bigotry, the hatred and the battle wounds, you are still growing strong. Nobody, absolutely nobody can stop you. We are all happy for you in carrying the burden upon yourself. May the Almighty God continue to give you the strength and foresight, in all your endeavors, especially the unfettered realm to Biafra actualization.

Congratulations and Happy 1000!

For a while I thought you were Ms. Okokon Ndem or Gen. Wekson or Ojukwu's daughter or all of the above.

The way these guys congratulate you make me think you just won an election, Amanda. But I know that even the Local Govt. elections are not yet up. What's all the high-fives about?

Biafra's made you cry. Right?

Ah! Williamson,

Where have you been my brother??? You were missed.

BTW, where is Quansah, the sports encyclopaedia?

And keep on trucking.

Joy my Sis,
Thanks. I cherish your compliment. As sor Ikpatt, I shall remember to wring his ears when I see him (lol).

Bro Nkem,
I mela.
It's been a while...my fault (lol).
I see your trip to LA was educational as well as fun. I'm glad you were able to stick it out.

How can I even attempt to unscramble your test words? Are those words in Danish or English?

Who could express your articulated and constructive contributions to the ongoing debates in this forum other than myself? When I opened and browsed this very thread, one thing popped up in my mind: Amanda deserves it and she earned it. You are on the one.

Congratulations.

Bature congratulates Amanda and she gladly accepts. Chineke .....!!!

Handshake across the abyss. But the beauty of it is that some day, Dan Fulanis', Nyariyas', Igwes', Omo Alatas', Ekaettes' and Nne Ngbekes' in Nigeria will prosper and live together happily ever after in Nigeria.

On a serious note, Amanda is material for leadership. All she needs to do is tow an alternative path wherein lieth righteousness, reality, unity, strength, democracy and freedom. She is goooood!!

And my very good friend from time Imo River, Biafra, has a good heart but drives me nuts. Few others, if I were not whom I am, a fing** would have popped longest ages ago.

Ikpatt,
Mischief, thou art afoot! Like other active forumites who stayed away for a while, I missed Bature while he went on voluntary rat-racing with the red necks. Now that he's back, don't go stirring up anything that would send him scurrying back to that cave (lol).

As for your dream of handshake from down under... sure, it's possible only when we have become Biafra Republic. Then, we as Biafrans can cordially shake hands with Nigerians and the rest of African countries in ECOWAS, OAU, UN, etc., summit settings. If we so choose, we can also extend our hands in philantropic gestures toward the prosperity of Nigeria.

Ikpatt, I appreciate your courageous analysis. However, know that I'm always on the side of righteousness, reality, unity, strength, deocracy, and freedom. This applies to my personal as well as social/public lives. In the case of Nigeria, there's nothing righteous, real, uniting, strong, democratic or free about it. Nigeria is a dead horse that has been over-flogged, decayed, stinking, and begging to be disposed of.

I appreciate your misgivings about Biafra. To overcome those, undertake your own little research about MASSOB, The organizations here supporting MASSOB and/or Biafra Actualization, and the masses at home and diaspora who want/need, and are asking for Biafra Actualization. After your extensive research, I believe you'd come away with the realization that clutching on to the failed project called Nigeria is unpopular and spells doom. You'd then appreciate the fact that Biafra Actualization is the only viable option.

After Biafra Actualization, what next...you'd wonder. During this course of Actualizing Biafra, I think that the interim Biafra Constitution should stipulate that there could be a federation of states within Biafra, if we (the majority of the states) wish to. But Ikpatt, you have to be on the inside to make and effect this kind of stipulation...among other things That way, each state/tribe has enough room to breathe and to develop at it's own pace. It will help douse the suspicious fire that could fuel distrust among the less populated and oil-rich states/tribes of Biafra. It's time you let go of Nigeria and embrace your heritage, Biafra.

If we want our offsprings and future generations to soar to unfettered heights among other progressive nations of the world, in freedom, prosperity, and and self actualization, Biafra must be evacuated from Nigeria. She must be free.

OU,
What can I say. I want Ikpatt to come to terms with Biafra...be it her ghost, her peoples, or her Actualization.
We cannot continue to lay comatose within Nigeria and pretend that all is well, especially, when our street thugs kiss up to the Hausa/Fulani/Yoruba thiefy usurpers and get a few crumbs thrown their way in order to keep us ever supressed.

If we continue to feign indifference, then we must have tacitly agreed to render our offsprings extinct.

I see that the Queen of Dreams has reached another milestone. Now that you have over 1000 posts, what has Biafra achieved? Ziiiiiiiiiiiiiiilch! Nothing + Nothing = Nothing. I wonder how much digital memory was consumed in that Biafra dream of yours. How many more will be wasted? Give it up, already. Biafra is over.

Anyway, congratulations. 1000 posts is not a joke, even though in this case, it was spent on a lost cause.

Na wa for you O. even in this season of goodwill you're still pushing your anti-Biafran agenda. Please now, give my lady some slack.

Does it mean you are now making a concession? Remember talk is cheap, and when you cannot follow up to what you vividly stand for, it means you are no longer credible.
