The Supreme leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has said that Bayelsa is part of Igbo and being that one of the region’s founding fathers, Late Ken Saro-Wiwa equally supported the cause of Biafra, then Bayelsa is not South-South but Biafran. Kanu who was joined by his father to welcome some Biafran supporters from Bayelsa also said that the Igbo man is more related to the Nkwere man from Bayelsa than a person from Maiduguri. He also said that Nigeria will return to the original state where it was before the coming of the whites who amalgamated her.
Cowards... just one single shot, fired by the Arewa Youths, was enough to confuse their agitations. If Nigeria will divide, it will most likely be based on people with the same tongue, historical background and cultural heritage moving on together, and not the greedy way you would have preferred it. Bayelsa or any part of the South-South will not be subservient to your Biafra and Nigeria may even be divided beyond the 36 states that we currently have as marginalisation will now be based on tribes. However, from past experience, state creation is not the problem. The main issue here is the resources required to sustain it. for instance, some local governments are richer than some states through internally generated revenue, and not allocation. What people should fight for, in my own opinion is for every state to control their own resources and give the federal government peanut that will render the central government less attractive and the state government more accountable. Thereafter, every state should use its resources in their state to develop it, and thereafter we can sit down to talk about separation.

EXACTLY WHAT MADE OJUKWU TO FAIL THE FIRST, IF YOU DONT WANT FEDERAL TROOPS AFTER YOU RECALL YOUR IGBO BROTHERS AROUND THE COUNTRY AND FORM YOUR BIAFRA COUNTRY LEAVE ALL THE OTHER MINORITIES ALONE, EVEN IF 10% OF THEM SAY THEY WANT TO BE PART OF BIAFRA ARE YOU NOW GOING TO FORCEFULLY ANNEX THEM LIKE WHAT OJUKWU DID THE FIRST TIME? THE NORTHERN YOUTHS HAS MADE IT EASIER FOR YOU NOW, JUST RECALL THE ONES IN WEST AND SOUTH AND FORM BIAFRA NO GOVERNMENT CAN FIGHT YOU FOR THAT BECAUSE YOUR IGBO PEOPLE VOLUNTARILY RETURNED TO THEIR HOMELAND SIMPLE.

WHY CAN EACH TRIBE BE CONTENT WITH THEMSELVES, INSTEAD OF DRAGGING OTHERS TO THEMSELVES? I WONDER WHY THE IGBOS ANY TIME THEY TALK OF BIAFRA, THEY WANT TO FORCE THE RIVERS, BAYELSA E.T.C TO BE INCLUDED. CAN THE IGBOS BE THE BIAFRA ON THEIR OWN WITHOUT OTHER TRIBES? IN THE NORTH, THE SAME THING. IN THE SOUTH WEST, THE SAME THING. AND IN THE SOUTH EAST, THE SAME THING. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE SO CALLED, 3 MAJOR TRIBES IN NIGERIA? DO YOU FORCE A TRIBE TO ACCEPT YOU, OR FORCE YOURSELVES ON ANY TRIBE? THIS IS TOTAL MADNESS. SEE THE IGBOS, THEY DON'T WANT TO BE ONE NIGERIA, BUT THEY ARE INCLUDING OTHER TRIBES BY FORCE TO BIAFRA. DOES THIS MAKE SENCE? . WITH THIS, THE IGBOS ARE NOT READY YET TO SEE BIAFRA HAPPENING
