What your call a tribe here is called a nation in other part of the world.


Nations where amalgamated in 1914 on 100years treaty since 2014 the citizens don't care to ask questions and the criminal politicians and their master UK also feel more happy the citizens are not asking any questions.

The case of Hong Kong is different from Nigeria.
China was forced to cede Hong Kong to British.
British still have a hold indirectly on Hong Kong.
Nigeria is a product of amalgamation by our colonial masters there was no country before the amalgamation.

Theres a reason I will comment on this issue becuase you are someone I respect and wouldn't want you speaking blunders, the black man should learn to take responsibility and not blame others for everything, Hong Kong was leased, after 100 years, It got back to China, Nigeria was sold by the Royal Niger Company and not leased,

What happened was that the North and Sourhern Nigeria was amalgamated to last a 100 years and even before that 100 years the regions got independence, with the East first, followed the West and by 1960, Nigeria became an independent Republic,

The choice to be together afterwards was the decision of indigenous leaders especially Zik, North and west opted to be a separate country however Zik convinced them on their lack of sea access and possibly confrontation with the East on the Use of the River Niger, for the West they were never here nor there, and up till today they don't know what they want,

I will rest my case from here, however Ojukwu never wanted Biafra he wanted due process for which he was willing to go to war, let's relearn so that we would know how to go about our pursuit, wanting to leave Nigeria as Igbos or Biafra is one thing but going about it the appropriate way is another, you won't get Biafra if you still believe Lord Lugard is holding you back.

There could not have been a better solution than the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Nigeria is a commonwealth and perhaps we have it our way, then Biafra itself is not even to be a country as the bight of Biafra was a Scottish conjecture.

Peharps then there would be at least 300 countries in what is today known as the Federal Republic of Nigeria, permit me to remind you that before the British the Yorubas was engulfed in a 16 years war, the Igala Kingdom and Benin Kingdom was engulfed in another war of mutual independence then on in the North there was several of Brutal clashes before the Fulanis through Usman Danfodio colonise majority of the North.

In the East, the Aroh sub group of Igbos was fighting with the Ibibio and Efik, Nsukka where I hail from was partially colonised by the Igala Kingdom. The Nigeria is the most perfect name for the country of the Igbos becuase the River Niger which Nigeria was named after run across Igbo lands.

Without Nigeria, this geographical expression could have been engulfed in so much chaos that what Terrorism is doing in the North would look like a childs play, once the Fulanis could have gotten to the huge Igbo population or attempted to invade the Igalas there could have been serious bloodbath because the Igalas had access to iron weapons, smelted in Nsukka, so the best solution is Nigeria as Confederate commonwealth. The Igbo nation still needs a Bismarck to unify all our lands without which we can't think of a workable country, to be blunt Biafra is unworkable if Nigeria is unworkable.

23 will decide it all.

I for one don't want the President to be from the Biafran region. I don't want one of our people bailing these people out. I want Nigerians to deal with their own problems. I want Biafra.

However, there are still some of us that have faith in Nigeria. 23 will prove to them that the nation that has subjugated them for decades is not willing to stop now.

Nigeria is not a country but an association of people
