The Man - Nnamdi Kanu And IPOB

It takes a good knowledge of who a person is to know the purposes of such a person. I will use a portion of the Holy Bible to illustrate on my emphasis for this article. Many Biafrans never appreciated Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB at the early stage of his ministry because of their ignorance of who Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB really are, as regards what I theologically call "Divine Election and Ordination".

You can ulter other things but can never ulter Divine Election when the elected is truly in his ministry as the scripture made us to know, that Many are called but few are chosen. 

I am putting up this article to reveal a mystery both to those who have known and to those yet to know of God's mysteries about Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB. Prior to the unbelievable emergence of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB, Biafrans were confined in a state of identity crisis leading to anti-self-identity.

Let us get a revelation from the Holy Bible that will help Biafrans appreciate the person of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB. Exodus 3:4-10 (KJV)

Using the above scriptural example in reference to the people of Israel and their stay in Egypt, as the coming of Moses as their Messiah from God to set them free from Bondage. The Scripture said that on that faithful day, after he had caused Moses to deny the house of Pharoah as his house, making him to see that the slaves (Israelites) are his blood and family.

The bible said that on that faithful day, while he was keeping his flocks (sheep) verses 4 and 5 said;.4: And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I. 

5 And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.

Reading down to verse 6, God wholly introduced himself to Moses and telling him His purpose of revealing Himself to him, despite all other people he chose him, Moses was not the first person that went to that particular place but God chose to reval Himself to him.

Verse seven of that same chapter said;

7: And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows;

Taking this scriptural passages, every Biafran Christian should have by now, known that the miracle we always talk about and read from the Bible, has come our way, God does not just do miracle, He sees a reason to do it. Biafrans had been crying for years and praying to God both at their various homes and in churches that God should make things better.

Why are they now complaining and some of the misguided are talking about one Nigeria? The scripture we emphasised on, did not say that God answered the prayer and cries of the Israelites in Egypt, he took them out from Egypt, out of their misery and pains, same way he want to take Biafrans out of Nigeria. 

 

He sent Moses to deliver them and lead them, knowing fully well that Moses is the only one who is capable of the work and do it well being under God's command. God is a commanding Instructor, he chooses only one who is humble and obedient to send an errand. He chose Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, he chose Moses. 

Joshua had been there before Moses, but he did not choose him at that time, same way we had many of them in Biafraland and He chose Mazi Nnamdi Kanu over them and that is why some of them decided to constitute hindrance. Verse 8, God said He had come down to deliver them from the house of Pharaoh out of the land of Egypt and to bring them to a land flowing with milk and honey, a land of comfort and where peace and harmony reign. 

Before I explain this verse and other ones down, let me do some comparisons between Moses and Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. Moses left and lost his royalty position in the house of Pharaoh to deliver the Israelites, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu lost his home, his parents for Biafra.

Moses ran away and went on exile to avoid Pharaoh killing him because of the Israelites, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu ran away from Nigeria from Buhari and the Nigeria government. 

Moses returned and warned Pharaoh with instruction from God, did Mazi Nnamdi Kanu not enter Nigeria in 2017? On personal characteristics, Moses is an Angry type that caused him not to enter the promised land with them, Mazi Nnamdi is an angry type, God needs angry people who are strong in mind and heart and do fiery things for Him. God does not use people who are mild in action to take strong action. Moses formed a group of people who worked with him which included the Levites, his sister Miriam, Joshua and many others for them to help him lead the Israelites. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu came with IPOB family for divine work. God works in communion, in unison, in cooperation. 

Before the coming of Moses, though the bible did not record that, but if we were to investigate with any possible means, we will surely see that there have been many people who had come in one way or the other to lift the Israelites out but they did not succeed. That was because they were on their own accord without appointment from God. They helped to clear the road for the right time to reach the people who still had hope and faith that one day, their messiah will come, same way we had people like Uwazuruike and others who emerged in the name of leaders of the Biafran struggle. Such was done out of selfish interests and after being settled, they decided to stay low.

Every Biafran should appreciate the coming of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) but we will not expect that to happen. This is because even in the time of Moses, many Israelites were against him, some said he and his family, came to take them to the wilderness to kill them all. But the funny part of it all is that the Bible did  not tell us that some people did not go, none of those persecutors of Moses stayed back in Egypt. They all followed him,(who does not want to go out of oppression and frustration?). Same way those who criticised IPOB and Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, will rejoice and merry on that last day. None of them who preached for one Nigeria, will ever say NO, that they are not going to be in Biafra or would want to relocate and remain in Nigeria. 

To appreciate Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB, you must know Who called him and the whole lot of his ministry followers. Biafrans being true Israelites, are covenanted with Jehovah God, the Almighty, and so engage God's attention in every sphere of life.

According to Exodus 3: 4-10, where I am using for illustration, God saw the oppressive afflictions of Israel in Egypt and needed a man to deliver them from the house of bondage in Egypt.

God engaged the spiritual and mental strength of Moses with a test of a flaming bush which was not burnt off. Moses responded positively. God called him and he responded, here I am, depicting availability for a mission. God has been looking for a man for Biafra liberation from Nigeria and total restoration of its sovereignty since after late Odumegwu Chukwuemeka Ojukwu of blessed memory laid the foundation. Some tried to answer the call but were not in line with the divine election and they failed.

But Mazi Nnamdi Kanu heard the call, answered and sealed it with a sincere oath just like a pastor who in   a genuine call would take in ordination to stand, defend and promote God and His Kingdom on earth without wavering even at death point. The person of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and all genuine IPOB members, involved in oath taking before God for the liberation and restoration of Biafra and Biafrans, to sovereignty in all absoluteness as a Nation which shall be free to serve God and develop a world enviable economy system.

For a man and people of this sort, no government anywhere on earth can ever stop their quest because their motives and moves are complex as each of their steps is divinely ordered and backed up.

The strength of this man, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB, is not human but divine. The more his quest is being delayed, the more Nigeria and dirty politicians are wasting away without future relevance and this is Very dangerous.

I will use this time to advise those opposing his quest to reconsider surrendering..I also use this time to admonish Nigerian pastors to quit emotionalin one way or the other to lift the Israelites out but they didn't succeed,it's because they're own their own accord without appointment from God in their own personal time, but they helped to clear the road for the right time to reach si the people will still have hope and faith that one day, their messiah will come, same way we had people like Uwazuruike and others who emerged in the name of Biafran struggle in their own selfish interests and after being settled with a big loaf of bread, they decided to stay low.

Every Biafran should appreciate the coming of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB, but we won't expect that to happen because even in the time of Moses, many Israelites were against him, some said him and his family has come to take them to wilderness to kill them all, but the funny part of it all is that the Bible didn't tell us that some people didn't go, none of those prosecutors of Moses stayed back in Egypt, they all followed him,( who doesn't want to go out of oppression and frustration?) Same prophecies to sustain Nigeria except they want to live in comedy of their real selves in future for God honours His Word only. Biafrans, rise to appreciate the gift of God, ELOHIM, Chukwu Okike Abiama.

Moses took Israel out of Egypt but handed the mantle to Joshua who finally took the people to the promised land. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu took over from late Odumegwu Chukwuemeka Ojukwu as a matter of Divine Election, not Natural Election and Biafra's liberation and restoration canno't be stopped in such a hand. Caution should be taken for this is Divine agenda for Biafrans.
