It is laughable to suggest that members of MASSOB are ignorant so I ask if they are what about MEND, OPC, and AREWA just to mention a few ethnic pressure groups in Nigeria asking for justices and fair game. The government but not MASSOB is ignorant because it has failed to address the needs of the people who felt locked out from the system.

Apartheid reigned for the longest in South Africa but it is now a free democratic Republic of South Africa because at the end reason prevailed and today South Arica is free. As long as the governments shuns a negotiated settlement to the crises in affected areas in the former Eastern Region unrest will continue to hold sway and no amount of guns and bombs will silence the aggrieved parties.

Look at Nigeria one would think that the Igbos are not part of that federation in all facets of economic development and political appointments. Igbos are no longer interested in been appointed as Minister of Education, Commerce, and all the low cabinet positions after all they are part of the Tripod despite that the Obasanjo census wants to make them a minority. You are not ignorant when you are asking to level the playing field and unless you are wearing the shoes of the MASSOB you would not understand what it is to be “loved” and be left alone.

until an ibo man becomes the president of nigeria, nigerians should stop deceiving themselves. u won biafrans during the civil war. u said no victor no vanquish. 38 years after, u never let any of them become the president of the fed. republic of nigeria. u call them nigerians? we should stop kidding ourselves. if cameron left nigeria without a fight, why cant u let BIAFRA go, without a fight. OR let them take their turn in the presidency. who is deceiving who? OIL; that is bullshit. integrate everyone in the system and they will stop hoisting the flag. we should stop reasoning through our anus. thanks. i am the usual G.C
