We notherners don't even have problem with our Igbo and Biafra brothers. Is untrustworthy blood sucking yorobas we need to worry about. You need to ask about me in this forum, I don't take nonsense. Just because I left for while, that gives idiots like you to come in here to pacifiy us. The northerners can defend themselves we don't need your likes to do that for us.

I think that Orji Kalu should suffer the pain of dying and then we should go and apologise to his killers. When he was wining and dinning with Anenih and co. he never remembered the marginalised Biafrans, he voted for aobasanjo's third coming. Now the marriage is over and his life is at stake he remembers Biafrans. Welcome home, Orji Kalu. But it's not over yet. My advise, read the book; "How not to eat an elephant".

Minor change emphasized by Ednut but the above quote fits. May the US please invade our country and save us from the criminals in power.

Mocking other people's heritage is more inferiority to someone who is used to embezzling public treasury without guilty.

From your over 1000 contributions into this BNW forum, most of which are fanatically pro-Biafran (not to mention your embarrassing semi-illiterate style), you still have no clue where the word "Biafra" comes from, you still do not know what language "Biafra" is taken from.

You have disappointed yourself!

quote:
For example: let's assume the word "Biafra" was used by Portuguese sailors from the 16th century as a description for cannibalism? Or let's go on to assume that "Biafra" was used by the Europeans as a word describing a certain vile behaviour? How would you react to that?

The joke is on you. Since you call yourself a Biafran, you have to explain what Biafra means. Or you want to continue to remain ignorant?

It's clear that you and your kind do not move in educated circles. If you did, you would have been confronted with these questions about Biafra long ago and would have gone searching for the meaning of Biafra rather than insulting and opposing honest folks who are simply trying to offer you a helping hand

Congratulations. One post without an insultive word. Now what remains for you is to work on the grammatical and syntax errors.

quote:
The conduct of the war in Iraq has made it clear that there was no effective plan for the post-Saddam settlement. All those with experience of the area predicted that the occupation of Iraq by the Coalition forces would meet serious and stubborn resistance, as has proved to be the case.

To describe the resistance as led by terrorists, fanatics and foreigners is neither convincing nor helpful.

Policy must take account of the nature and history of Iraq, the most complex country in the region.

... The military actions of the Coalition forces must be guided by political objectives and by the requirements of the Iraq theatre itself, not by criteria remote from them.

It is not good enough to say that the use of force is a matter for local commanders.

Heavy weapons unsuited to the task in hand, inflammatory language, the current confrontations in Najaf and Falluja, all these have built up rather than isolated the opposition.

... We share your view that the British government has an interest in working as closely as possible with the United States on both these related issues, and in exerting real influence as a loyal ally.

We believe that the need for such influence is now a matter of the highest urgency.

If that is unacceptable or unwelcome there is no case for supporting policies which are doomed to failure.

"The Biafra itself and their leaders have become a very big problem, because the first Biafran experiment was started by these same people and finally abandoned for General Effiong to face the uncertainty of imminent end of the war."

Remarking that the scenario came as a surprise to ANC and Akwa-Ibomites, wondering why the Igbo would not show a common respect to the people of Akwa Ibom State and Efik-speaking communities.

"Why should Igbo not show respect to the corpse of a man whom they vilified and called uncomplimentary names while alive?" noting that the man lived and died a bitter person.

He categorically said "for over 33 years before the death of General Effiong, no Igbo organisation or group has shown any interest in the man's well-being, no community deemed it necessary to honour him with traditional/chieftaincy titles of Igboland for his Biafran heroism," he said.
