This is the reason Biafran youths refuse to join Nigerian military as you can not starve and k!ll my people and expect us to dine with you.

For many young people in southeastern Nigeria, the military is not viewed as a symbol of national defense, but rather as an institution historically linked to the trauma, marginalisation, and suppression of their people.

This deep-seated reluctance to enlist is driven by historical memory, structural exclusion, and ongoing security friction in the region.

The primary barrier to recruitment is the generational trauma inherited from the civil war.
During the conflict, the Nigerian military enforced a total blockade on the breakaway Republic of Biafra, resulting in the starvation of over a million civilians, mostly children.

For Igbo youths, the military represents the force that orchestrated this devastation. This collective memory is preserved through family oral histories, ensuring that younger generations view the armed forces with systemic distrust rather than patriotic pride.

Structural Marginalisation and the "Glass Ceiling"The aftermath of the war established a political reality that continues to discourage Igbo enlistment. Following the surrender of Biafra, a policy of reintegration was announced, but many structural barriers remained.

Igbo youths frequently witness a perceived "glass ceiling" for southeastern officers within the military hierarchy.

The historical suspicion that Igbo officers might hold secessionist sympathies has led to a widespread belief that young Igbo recruits will face discrimination, slow promotions, and exclusion from top strategic command positions.

This historical distrust is reinforced by modern military operations in the southeast.
In recent years, checkpoints, curfews, and heavy-handed military campaigns aimed at suppressing secessionist groups like the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) have created an environment of fear. Instead of viewing soldiers as protectors, many Igbo youths interact with the military as an occupying force.

Enlisting in an institution that they perceive as actively antagonising their home communities is seen by many as a betrayal of their identity.

The Biafran War fractured the bond of trust between the Nigerian military and the Igbo population.

The refusal of many Igbo youths to join the armed forces is a direct protest against historical grievances that have never been fully reconciled. Until the Nigerian state addresses these deep-rooted feelings of marginalisation and structural bias, the military will continue to struggle to project itself as an inclusive institution for all ethnic groups.

Attention!

Biafrans most of you will remember when I was calling out criminals who are terrorizing our people in Anambra , he was being used by Emeka Ofor as a political thug and later he joined the auto criminals kidnapping gang .

His evil has finally visited him . This deadly criminal and kidnapper known as Man Pass Man, abducted one Emmanuel Ikechukwu Otuonye of Ezi-Ora, Ozubulu., a security man with Agunechemba Security from Ozubulu, who had threatened to expose his criminal activities both kidnapping and political assassination in Anambra state and out of fear of being exposed Man pass Man abducted the guy , took him to his house after torturing him and he murdered him in cold blood.
The stench emanating from the co**se subsequently alerted members of the community, who then involved the police.

Man pass man has since been arrested and is presently being detained at the State CID Awka , Anambra state, but Emeka Ofor and Vincent D**e are working relentlessly by using their connections so that Man pass man won’t be sent to Abuja .

For record purposes, Vincent D**e is currently contesting for the House of Representatives seat for the Nnewi North, Nnewi South and Ekwusigo Federal Constituency under the APGA platform and he is one of the sponsors of Man pass Man as he uses him in committing many evils in Anambra state against their political opponents .

Governor Chukwuma Soludo seem to be quite this time over this matter because few of his political associates are involved in sponsoring Man pass man.
There is also information that Ikenna Ofodeme, the Majority Leader of the Anambra State House of Assembly, was involved in this extrajudicial killings. This matter however, must be thoroughly investigated and must not be swept under the carpet .

Given the gravity of these allegations and the killing of this young man , Ezi- Ora community must raise up against all the killing of this young irrespective of anyones status or political connections because if care is not taken they will tag the killing of Emmanuel Ikechukwu Otuonye on IPOB because using the name of IPOB/ESN to cover murder cases in Most of these states are very common .

THE 31-YEAR EKUMEKU RESISTANCE: IGBO RESISTANCE TO BRITISH COLONIAL EXPANSION, 1883–1914

Between 1883 and 1914, a prolonged resistance unfolded between British colonial forces and communities in parts of the Igbo-speaking hinterland, particularly around present-day Delta and Anambra areas. This period of resistance became known as the Ekumeku Wars.

The Ekumeku were networks of local warriors and resistance fighters who opposed British attempts to expand colonial control over their communities. Their resistance was particularly associated with places such as Ogwashi-Uku, Ibusa, Issele-Uku, and surrounding communities. Rather than relying solely on conventional warfare, the fighters often used guerrilla tactics, including surprise attacks, ambushes and attacks on colonial forces and their African auxiliaries.

The resistance was not a single conventional war fought continuously for 31 years. Instead, it consisted of repeated confrontations, uprisings and military campaigns that occurred at different times and in different communities. The British responded with heavily armed punitive expeditions and military operations designed to break the resistance and establish colonial authority.

One of the notable episodes occurred around Ogwashi-Uku, where British forces suffered significant casualties. Captain H. C. Chapman was among the British officers killed during fighting in November 1909. Such encounters demonstrated that the Ekumeku resistance was capable of seriously challenging colonial military forces.

However, the British possessed major military advantages, including superior fi****ms, organised military structures and the ability to launch repeated expeditions against communities that resisted them. Over time, these advantages weakened the resistance. By 1914, organised Ekumeku resistance had largely been suppressed.

The story of the Ekumeku is important because it demonstrates that colonial expansion was not simply accepted peacefully by the communities that eventually became part of Nigeria. Across different parts of the region, local societies resisted the loss of political independence, interference in traditional institutions, taxation, commercial control and the increasing authority of British colonial administrators.

It is also important, however, to distinguish the Ekumeku resistance from later Igbo political movements. The Ekumeku Wars were fought by particular communities against British expansion decades before the Nigerian Civil War. The political circumstances of 1967 were very different, and the two periods should not be treated as one continuous war.

Nevertheless, many people today view the Ekumeku struggle as part of a much longer history of resistance to external political control. The memory of that resistance continues to influence discussions about Igbo identity, self-determination and the historical relationship between the Igbo people and the Nigerian state.

The defeat of the Ekumeku did not erase the desire of many communities to preserve their identity and autonomy. Instead, resistance to political domination continued to take different forms throughout the 20th century, including the events surrounding the declaration of Biafra in 1967 and subsequent political movements.

History therefore gives us an important lesson: the formation of modern Nigeria was not simply a story of different peoples voluntarily coming together. British colonial expansion, military campaigns, treaties, negotiations and administrative decisions played major roles in bringing diverse societies under one colonial structure.

The Ekumeku warriors ultimately lost the military struggle against the British Empire, but their resistance remains an important chapter in the history of anti-colonial resistance in southeastern Nigeria.

The story of the Ekumeku is a story of people who resisted the loss of their autonomy and whose struggle remains remembered more than a century later.
