Any historians in the house to vet this but no insults or character assassination please:
Forgotten History Of Igbo Tribe And Northern Alliance.
Do you know that when Tafawa Balewa was Prime Minister of Nigeria;
*Chief of Army Staff was from SE*
*Chief of Naval Staff was from SE*
*IG of Police was from SE*
*Chief of Defence Staff was from SE*
*Internal Affairs Minister SE*
*External Affairs Minister SE*
*Education Minister South SE*
*Many other key ministries to SE*
*Parliament President SE*
*Unilag VC from SE*
*The University of Ibadan VC from SE*
*North resisted same at ABU!!!*
*Still, there was dissatisfaction by SE, the officers from the region killed this same Balewa!!!*
*Out of all the most senior officers in Nigeria, SE has 37, none was killed. 8 from the north, all of them were killed. 10 from the west, 2 were killed.*
*Then Ironsi imposed a unitary system of government on the country so that everything can belong to a region who snatched it!*
*We must know our history so that when we want to make corrections, we will not end up concealing the truth.*
*This has nothing to do with tribalism but everything to do with the truth.....at times when lies litter the streets.*
*There is a tendency to think those are truths and facts.*
*What follows are documented facts that can be cross-checked for authenticity!"*
*Thou shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.*
* *“Prof. Ben Nwabueze was the man who drafted the constitution that took away powers from regions and handed it to the central government because his brother Aguiyi THEORY WOES IN NIGERIA TODAY:*
*The Igbo man is known to enjoy blaming the Hausa fulanis, Yorubas and indeed every other Nigerian tribe and Lord Luggard/Britain for their seeming claim of being in third class citizen status in Nigeria.*
*In their perpetual attempts to play the victim card, they recount the political events of Nigeria from 1914 to the present in a half-baked and highly selective manner which cleverly avoids the mention of the roles played by their elite who by all natural laws of judgement were actually responsible for the woes that befell not only the Igbo race but the entire Nigeria nation.*
*The story told in the post above is one of such selective and distorted accounts of history which the average Igbo man is fond of narrating.*
*However, the national archives have the complete and unedited history of Nigeria regarding the political events beginning way back from even before 1914.*
*I will therefore proceed to furnish my readers with the complete story for all to read and be endowed with enough facts so as to judge and act from an informed position.*
*Shortly after the 1914 Amalgamation of the Northern and Southern Protectorates, it started getting clear that the country was bound to fail as the amalgamation in question was done with colonial fiat without the consent and consensus of the different tribes which were over 300.*
*This prompted the political leaders to start asking for de-amalgamation so as to forestall the future danger which the forced amalgamation portended.*
*To that end, Ahmadu Bello, speaking on behalf of the Northern protectorate in 1944 described the amalgamation as* *"The mistake of 1914 which if allowed to remain will ultimately lead to unstoppable bloodshed and a failed country".*
*Awolowo, speaking on behalf of the Yorubas and Western minorities, described Nigeria as a mere geographical expression not qualified to be called a country let alone a nation.*
*Awolowo added that if the5 amalgamation could not be reversed, then Nigeria should be structured as a strictly federal state so as to enable each tribe enjoy autonomy

Today, I want to join my voice with my brother Kcee and say this clearly, without fear or apology; I am not a Biafran, and I will never be a Biafran. I am an Igbo man from Ebonyi State, and my identity did not start in 1967; it will not be defined by a war that ended before I was born.
Too many people speak as if our ancestors ever woke up one morning to call themselves Biafrans. They didn’t. Not one community in Igboland used that name before the conflict began. The people who built our lineage built it as Igbo. They defended their homes as Igbo
They traded across the continent as Igbo. They introduced themselves across kingdoms as Igbo. That identity lives because it existed before colonialism and before any agitation. You cannot delete centuries of identity and replace it with a wartime invention just because you are angry at Nigeria.
People shout about Biafra today as if it is an ancient inheritance when the truth is that the name itself did not come from us. It was a Portuguese description of coastal regions that were not even Igbo communities. But somehow, in this era of online noise, people repeat it as if it is our original crown. It is not. It never was. Refusing to adopt it does not make anyone conquered or stupid; it simply means some of us have enough sense to separate historical facts from emotional rewriting.
If Biafra was truly our identity, why did none of our great ancestors ever mention it? Why did none of our ancient towns include it in their titles? Why did none of our elders teach it as lineage? Because it was not ours. It came during pressure, fear, and war. Ojukwu needed a geopolitical name for a breakaway state, and he picked something that sounded useful at the time. That does not mean it suddenly became our spiritual identity.
I keep asking; if your great-grandparents returned from the dead, how would they introduce themselves? Would they say, "We are Biafrans," or would they say, "We are Ndi Igbo"? The answer is obvious to anyone who has ever sat down with real history. But today, a lot of people want to bully others into an identity that never belonged to us.
They use insults because they have no facts. They use threats because they have no grounding. They attack every Igbo person who says, "I am Igbo, not Biafran," because deep down, they know the truth they are trying to hide.
I refuse to let a war define who I am. I refuse to build my entire identity on a conflict that destroyed millions of Igbo lives. I refuse to inherit a name created in fear and pressure when my people already had a name older than any agitation. You are free to call yourself whatever you want; that is your personal choice.
But I will not let anyone force a political label on me in the name of purity. If rejecting Biafra makes me a bad Igbo in your eyes, then your understanding of Igbo identity is shallow. My forefathers were Igbo without apology. They passed the name down with dignity. You cannot force me to exchange that for something they never claimed.
Good morning, ụmụ Igbo and Nigerians in general! 🇳🇬🇳🇬
earlier this year ....Atiku, Obi, and others launch a coalition to unseat Tinubu....
El Rufai was everywhere.... Boasting with his empty Barrel....
Amaechi vow to deliver all of South South to the coalition....
The sick coalition claim over half of Nigeria govs and senators among others are with them...
All these happening with Tinubu yet to spend two years in power....
Before the coalitionists could settle down to sip a bottle of hero beer..... Delta collapse all their political structure to back Tinubu....
Before they could prepare Fura Dununu...
Bayelsa collapse all their political structure to back Tinubu....
The coalitionists tried to hold Sim from using Tinubu network....
Sim said Tinubu is his father and would never abandon him...
As the coalitionists were gasping for breath Akwa ibom collapsed all it's political structure to back Tinubu....
The ever biased and unpatriotic media that went up in frenzy hoping a coalition was in town to challenge the Jagaban Borgu... All went Dumb...as hurricane Tinubu swept all of South South...
With Obaseki on the run.... The Hurricane pick Osun and left Seyi in the govt house he is wasting over N67billion Oyo people's money to build in all of South West...
Anambra quickly pledge allegiance to the Tinubu army.... Hurricane Tinubu picked Enugu...and left Oti till 2026... With no space left in the whole of southern Nigeria...
The coalitionists tried to gather themselves in a camp to make it a northern political party....
Kano the political headquarters of Northern Nigeria drop an atomic bomb in the camp of the coalitionists with a bombshell that Kano is working with the Dike Simba of Igboland....
To add salt to the injury the coalitionists suffered from the Kano bomb blast.... Every political leader in Kaduna... The deputy political headquarters of Northern Nigeria all pledge their allegiance to Tinubu army...
Plateau, Taraba, Adamawa and many more are all finishing their screening to be part of the biggest revolutionary political movement black Africa has ever seen....
Leaving them with social media politicians who can't win a poling units in any electoral contest...
In disarray.... The coalitionists fled to America to stop this Earth shaking transformational tsunami Tinubu had activated....
The Donald Drum who don't know where Nigeria is in world map.... Promised to roll in tanks , war ships , war planes with gun blazing to take over Nigeria...
Drum threat tried to rekindle the coalitionists hopes... But before the dust could settle....
Drum plan changed.... He is no longer coming... Instead he will be supporting Tinubu army with intelligence to destroy Bandits and terrorists...
They tried coups.... They failed...
They recruited kidnappers to target students and Christians .. all the abducted are being released with no one hurt....
They were expecting ded bodies but it was a seamless release...
Nobody can fight a man whom the Gods have blessed....
Tinubu is God's project for Nigeria....
Every stone thrown at him becomes a stepping stone....
No man can stop an idea whose time has come....
Tinubu is a leader every Nigerian is proud of...
If you want to stand on the Path of Hurricane Tinubu ..... You are the reason why the Urhobos will always say...
It is better to born a Thief than to born a mumu....
Proverbs are not for kids....
If None of your parent prayed for you like this 👇 you would kpai as a wailer...

Question for Nicki Minaj on her UN speech on Nigeria & thanking Trump - how dare you center only Christians in Nigerian suffering? I’m all for celebrities using their voices for good but her positioning is at the very least uninformed & uneducated and at most self-aggrandising.
I don’t care who you are - if you can’t speak with equal compassion and demand for action to end the genocide of Christians AND Muslims in Nigeria then shut up.
Thanking Trump added insult to injury…. like it should be criminal to be this wilfully ignorant and complicit.
Let me clear I don’t dislike her - I’m just annoyed. I’ve never given her a second thought but always seen her as a successful talented female in her industry even though I am not into her music.
I’m just sick and tired of people qualifying their support of Nigerians on the condition of Christianity as though Nigerian Muslim lives don’t matter.
Dear Peter Obi, you’re a clown.
In 2012, you sent athletes to the Eko National Sports Festival in Lagos without payment of allowances, Anambra state athletes became beggars on the streets of Lagos just to survive.
They went as far as staging a protest by blocking roads in Lagos.
Peter, you were a demon.
One of these guys was a member of AlQaeda and ISIS, killed American soldiers, beheaded children, set up car bombs killing Iraqi and syrian civilians, slaughtered syrian minorities, but is ready to sell Syria to Israel.
The other guy is an elected Democrat they called a jihadi because he wouldn’t visit Israel.

Battle for the soul of America

Talmud Tatum gets cooked by Ricky_HD. Over 20 years, Israel sent no material support during America’s War on Terror in the Middle East, although their intel was primary justification for the War!
Who knows Simon's Ekpa's "Finance Minister" Ogechukwu Nkere was meeting with Ted Cruz in 2024.
When Ted Cruz says online that 50000 Christians have been massacred in Nigeria.
He is directly reporting from InterSociety, the NGO based in Onitsha, led by Emeka Umeagbalasi.
The same Emeka Umegbalasi who in 2023 criticised the criminalisation of IPOB's "Sit-at-home" order by the Enugu State Government.
He described it as State Extremism.
The whole episode is bizarre.
A known IPOB apologists concocts figures for Republican Senators with MAGA bases to feed their Evangelical bases back home.
Mind you, US federal Election Commission shows Elias Gerasoulis, the Moran Global Lobbyist paid nearly $20000 to this same Ted Cruz in the past couple of months.
Within next couple of days, expect more ratcheting up of religious rhetoric by IPOB shills and their likes particularly since Nnamdi Kanu is likely to be jailed.
That is the "Christian saviour" that is being victimised by the Islamic court of Justice James Omotosho.
Behind every airstrike, every surveillance drone, and every AI-powered kill list, there’s a tech company cashing a fat check.
Palantir, Google, Oracle, Amazon, Microsoft as well as the entire backbone of Silicon Valley are the silent contractors of empire. These corporations are selling cloud infrastructure, predictive policing software, and battlefield AI directly to the Israeli military.
You won’t see them on the battlefield, but they’re behind every database that turns a child into a “threat” and a neighborhood into a “Hamas hideout”
