Persistence Amidst Challenges: The Insurmountable And Formidable Spirit of IPOB

 Persistence Amidst Challenges: The Insurmountable And Formidable Spirit of IPOB

The Nigerian government has been working nonstop to weaken and discredit the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), but they have persevered while growing in power and influence. IPOB has come a long way from her modest beginnings, showcasing perseverance in the face of multiple adversity and unflinching dedication to purpose. The movement’s resilience in the face of official criticism and attempts to damage her reputation says a lot about her foundational commitment and honesty.

For many people, IPOB has represented resistance and hope since her founding. Under Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s direction, the movement has maintained an unwavering commitment to non-violence and self-determination. She has thrived both locally and internationally in spite of the many obstacles it has encountered, such as the absence of her leader owing to Nigeria government’s abduction, extraordinary rendition and protracted torture. This impressive expansion demonstrates the movement’s capacity to mobilize supporters and uphold essential principles in the face of obstacles – manufactured and/or real.

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s statement that IPOB is “whiter than snow” demonstrates the movement’s dedication to openness, morality, and decency. This metaphor emphasizes the movement’s attempts to project an image of purity and innocence despite harsh criticism and unfounded allegations. IPOB stands distinct from many other groups under comparable constraints because of her restraint and unwillingness to participate in violent acts. A testament to ideological dedication.

The Nigerian government has employed various tactics in their futile attempts to discredit and dismantle IPOB. One of the most persistent strategies has been to falsely associate the Biafra Restoration Project with criminal activities. Despite numerous allegations, no member of the movement has ever been convicted of a crime, a testament to the movement’s commitment to lawful conduct.

For instance, on multiple occasions, the Nigerian government claimed to have jammed Radio Biafra, IPOB’s primary medium for disseminating information and rallying support. On October 16, 2017, the Nigerian government announced that it had successfully jammed Radio Biafra’s broadcasts. Despite this claim, Radio Biafra continued to operate, highlighting the government’s failure to suppress the movement’s voice. Similarly, on February 22, 2018, the government again declared that it had disrupted the radio station’s transmissions. Yet, Radio Biafra remained accessible to its global audience, defying the government’s efforts to silence it.

These attempts to jam Radio Biafra not only failed but also underscored the movement’s resilience. Despite spending substantial resources—estimated in the billions of dollars—to disrupt the radio station, the Nigerian government was unable to achieve its objective. This failure illustrates the strength and effectiveness of IPOB’s communication network and her ability to circumvent government efforts to stifle important messages from reaching esteemed audience.

The Nigerian government has also been known to attribute crimes committed by various miscreants in the Southeast region to IPOB, often without evidence. These allegations are part of a broader strategy to paint the movement as a violent and disruptive force, thereby justifying harsher measures against the members. However, these claims have consistently proven to be unfounded.

For example, in the wake of sporadic violence in the Southeast, the government and media outlets frequently attribute such incidents to IPOB, despite the lack of credible evidence linking the movement to these acts. This pattern of baseless accusations aims to tarnish the movement’s reputation and diminish her support base. Yet, the unalloyed adherence to the principles of non-violence and self-determination remains clear, and no substantial proof has emerged to substantiate the government’s claims.

At the core of movement’s resilience is the existence of truth and integrity engraved in her sturdy foundation. The movement operates within a framework of ethical principles and holds firm to an immutable belief in justice and righteousness. This commitment is reflected in the way she addresses false accusations and continues to advocate for the self-determination cause through peaceful means.

The movement’s activities and leadership are guided by the principles of truthfulness and respect for human rights. A refusal to engage in and total rejection of violence, despite provocations and severe repression, is representative of dedication to planned goals. This adherence to truth and non-violence is central to IPOB’s identity and has been a key factor in endurance and growth, even in the face of adversity.

The movement's adherence to the founding principles and the upward curve in growth amidst adversity are often attributed to divine protection and strength. The leadership and members believe that their cause is just and that their efforts are blessed by ChukwuAbiama (the Supreme God). This spiritual belief reinforces their commitment and provides a sense of purpose.

Additionally, the members are steadfast in their belief that no man or woman born can stain or derail the movement and escape the divine retribution of God. This belief in divine justice not only fortifies their resolve but also serves as a source of inspiration and motivation in their ongoing struggle for self-determination and justice.

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has demonstrated remarkable resilience and professionalism in the face of concerted efforts by the Nigerian government to discredit and suppress the movement. Despite numerous attempts to tarnish her esteemed image, including failed efforts to jam Radio Biafra and baseless accusations of criminal activities, IPOB has continued to thrive and grow.

As IPOB continues her divinely assigned journey, it does so with the confidence that these foundational principles and divine protection will sustain the mortal efforts and lead her towards achieving her goals. The movement’s ability to endure and grow amidst adversity is a powerful testament to her strength and dedication, reflecting the enduring spirit of the nonnegotiable cause and the insatiable commitment of members and supporters.

Muhammadu Buhari's Visit To Imo State And The People's Aversion Of Desecration

 Muhammadu Buhari's Visit To Imo State And The People's Aversion Of Desecration

 

What did the Nigerian President really come to do in Biafraland? What business does he have with the Igbo-speaking Biafrans and the entire old Eastern region whose people he declared terrorists? What could have been his mission in Imo State, Biafraland? Maybe he came to inspect the wanton destruction of Ala-Igbo (Igboland) and all the killings he has been unabatedly sponsoring amongst other hidden plots being perpetrated in Biafraland. Perhaps he still wants to bring in more pythons to come and dance in Igboland. If you ask me, my sincere answer will be that I do not know exactlly what his mission is. And I am just wondering what really may have motivated the Supreme Court Governor, Hope Uzodimma, to bring this mass murderer of our people to the sacred Igbo land (Ala-Igbo).

Without mincing words, Buhari is a well known enemy of the Biafran people and it did not start today. Since he became the Nigerian President, he has sponsored the killing of Igbo youths in their thousands. He was also among those that led the starvation and killing of Biafran women and children during the 1966-1970 genocidal war. As if that was not enough, he has defiantly continued when he came back to office in 2015, to drive Igbo genocide. He openly confessed his hatred for the people. He said that "he would not treat those that gave him 95% vote same way, with those that gave him 5%". And we have all watched and seen all he has been doing to Biafrans since his election into office as a testimonial implementation of that statement. Now, Hope Uzodimma had the guts to bring him to Owerri, Imo State. For me, the coming of the said Buhari to Biafraland is a sacrilege and totally deserved the kind of treatment Biafrans gave him via a Sit-At-Home protest.

For over a year now, this same Imo State has been bleeding in the hands of this Buhari led government. A day has never passed without hearing of the Nigerian armed forces, killing the Igbos even on their own land. The same imposter brought unknown gunmen to destabilize the relatively peaceful land. He sent Abba Kyiari, through Hope Uzodimma to kill and criminalize Igbo youths. Is it not the same Buhari's government that proscribed the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), and tagged them  terrorists without any valid proofs? It is the same government that kidnapped Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in Kenya and unjustly renditioned him to Nigeria, where he is suffering presently in the dungeon of the Department of State Services (DSS). It is the same Muhammadu Buhari and his fellow Fulani hegemony that said that they would make the former Nigerian President, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan's government ungovernable, which they criminally did. It is the same Muhammadu Buhari that is still holding many Biafran youths today in different prisons across Nigeria.

Why would this man ever think of visiting Imo State, Biafraland? Did he come to laugh at the people? Did he come to urinate on the graves of those he killed? It is purely an evidence that the shameless imposter does not have a human heart. It shows how senseless and inhumane the so-called President is and the Igbos welcoming him in their numbers, could have been a clear desecration of the land. But thanks to the leadership of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB), for ordering a total lockdown of Biafraland, to tell the blood sucker that he was not welcomed, thereby averting the planned desecration of the land by the enemies.The land of Igbo (Ala-Igbo), must indeed be very proud of this generation of her children. Biafraland is our inheritance and we will not in this our lifetime, watch it taken into shame by some good for nothing elements in government.

Elevation Of Uncultured Politicians To Public Offices, Bane Of Capacity Building in Nigeria

Madness has no caution earnestly! 

The Nigerian government has been a kind of water birth of riddled in ignorance and arrogance. From the presidency down to the office of the President of the country, there has been a hint of dumbing down the masses, starting with a fragile President with poor education down to quota generals and lawyers. The country has shown so much uncultured attributes than mad men. It is agreed that there has been rudderlessness since the inception of an administration that took good nine months to constitute a government, ministers and parastatals. Then came the description of Germany as West Germany, the 95% versus 5% development strategy for different sections. One cannot but expect the President or the presidency to give what it has not, in terms where an uneducated President will be less likely to exhibit an educated behaviour like, uniting every citizen, stoppage of unguarded utterances, cautioning the Attorney General and the code of conduct Chief. And if nepotism was engendered in their appointment, how can he willfully sack an Al-Qaeda apologist he follows for spiritual guidance? Accepting Buhari and the precidency today is tantamount to accepting knowledge bereft leadership and order. He has turned the rules, disobeyed court orders and so on, while the masses involuntarily weaken their brain and conscience to accept decisions not supported by morality, truth, scientific or any other civilized evidence.

While most Nigerians will say no one hates Igbos in Nigeria, they will tell and accept that genocide, lack of opportuinity, accusations and wanton imprisonments have ever been meted out to them uproportionately. Nigerians have therefore involuntarily, that is without any provocation, towed the line of hate from the presidency against the Igbos, with the exception of a few who condemned the President while still standing by him in other mean instances. Some months ago, it was Muhammadu Buhari with his utterances and uncivic comments about the Eastern part of Nigeria. While speaking on IPOB agitation for referendum and the Igbos, he stated that he will talk to them in the language they understand while referring them to the brutal genocide during the war. He went on to call them a dot in a circle, who have no escape route as he claimed that the South-South region has denied having anything to do with them. But the claim on South-South denial of the Igbos was refuted by the South-South elders, who said that they have never spoken with the President on such an issue as claimed.

Nevertheless, the most disturbing has been that of the Minister of information, Alhaji Lia Muhammed, who has been speaking uncontrollably even when he seems to be going off the context.

According to a twitter influencer, with the handle @ayemojubar,  "Lai Mohammed is the most uninformed and uncultured Minister of Information and Culture on planet earth."

Going through the utterances of the minister, you can attest and concur with the writer. I have never heard him speak, with that; being bossy, bigoted, nepotistic or partisan in all his interviews and speeches going back to his days in the opposition reeks of insecurity, arrogance and ignorance of other peoples sensitivities.

After twitter took down Nigerian President's tweet on the talking to IPOB and Igbos in the language they quite understand. It violated their rules on hate and genocidal speech referenced to the 1967-1970 civil war where Nigeria in collaboration with Britain and other world powers as of then, murdered over five million Biafrans. The minister added that the "Separatists used Twitter to burn police stations, INEC offices in Nigeria" But does that mean that twitter is now likened to a missile?

Later, when the Nigerian government discovered that people use VPN to tweet, Lai Mohammed came up again to voice out that "VPN exposes your bank accounts and entire data". And I keep asking, what has VPN got to do with bank accounts? Did he think it is BVN which has people's bank account details? Ignorance is truly a desease and the ignorant should not be in government lest they infect others.

True To Their Radical Islamic Ideology, The Fulanis Blame Others For Their Boondoggle Choices

 

Nobody was a better proponent of restructuring than I was before 2019 general election (selection?). On 17th October 2018, as a guest columnist on daily Sun Newspaper,  I made a strong case for restructuring with an article titled “VP SLOT, ATIKU AND SOUTH-EAST.” 

 

Fearing that the outcome of the 2019 election was already pre-determined, for the record, I joined my voice to those of the non-political and honest advocates looking for a win-win. The ascension to the political throne, in 2015, was followed by an up thrust in violence visited on the indigenous tribes on the table leaving the Fulani as the only tribe with full access to the seats at the table. It must be pointed out that the inaction of both domestic and international actors left the Fulani with no reason whatsoever to consider any suggestion or demand, other than their quest for blood – blood of baboons and dogs!  

 

Barack Obama did a maximum damage through his chief strategist, David Axelrod. History will forever be unkind to him. It was shocking, in 2015, to hear Northerners (non-Fulanis and non-muslims with Muslims) parrot the divide and rule talking points of David Axelrod's lobbying firm which was holding fort for APC, while I was coming from Jos end route Abuja; deflecting blame from Fulani for Boko Haram carnage in the North and placing them on President Jonathan. Well, with the demand for a Middlebelt (Kwararafa) Republic, it’s clear that they now understand that it was Obama doing British propaganda job albeit too late. 

 

One of the things taught by history is an Islamist's unending pointing of finger and lack of responsibility. They prefer to pass the buck and play the victims' card for their monstrous creation and self-serving expedition. As an example, Islamists blamed the crusaders even though Jihadism was the reason for its creation. Islamists blame the Jews for rising up and defending themselves. The same way Fulani Islamists blame Biafrans for setting up Eastern Security Network (ESN), for the defense of their homeland. 

 

Fulanis, as good students of radical Islamism, have learned the art of blame game. They have taken it up via another notch with the following: 

(a) That letter from the Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG) to Emir of Kano, Alhaji Aminu Bayero, is a must read and a red flag. The Fulani group (There is no coalition in the group), is blaming Biafrans for their self consuming hatred, wickedness and poor choices. It is recommended. 

(b) The high illiteracy – especially female illiteracy rate, is a widely known time bomb ticking. That as well as the Almajiri policy is blamed on Biafrans (Of course when South is mentioned, we know who they are referring to), by people who have run the country from its inception. 

(c) We all know the genesis of terrorism and insecurity in Nigeria. However, the Fulanis are shaming and blaming the victims of their terrorism and the people asking for referendum (those they incorrectly refer to as secessionists), for the failed state status of Nigeria. 

It is not the intention of this writer to exhaust all the blames oozing from Fulani Islamists. Rather, the intended outcome is to stir conversation and make it a part of historical archive. 

 

To conclude, it is boondoggle to think or have a belief that anything other than complete and total dissolution is needed in Nigeria. The statement, “Divided we fall, united we stand”, has found its exception in Nigeria's situation. Now, the reality of the situation in Nigeria is that logically, it is deductible that “Divided we stand, united we fall.”  Know that and know peace!

Nigeria: A Perpetual Mishap

 

For those who want to be set free, I come with the truth. For those who wallow in inexplicable darkness, I come with the light. For those in bondage, I come with the message of salvation. I come with food that satisfies the hungry and water that quenches the thirsty. I come with facts that cannot be fatigued: that Nigeria is a mishap. 

 

Whatever brings pain, injury, sorrow, agony, death, backwardness, regrets and unbearable burden, is a mishap and ought to be rooted out immediately and completely. And Nigeria is the fountain of all of the above mentioned ills. Nigeria as a mishap, did not just happen; it is still happening and will conginually remain so unless it ceases to exist. In order words, Nigeria can be seen as a definition of mishap and abysmal agony. 

  

A jungle that exists for economic benefits of few white folks at the detriment of the  occupants of the land, is worse than a Zoo. For those who think that Nigeria being referred to as a Zoo will ever get better, let it be clear that whatever looks good that may come out of this country, is built on tombs of innocent men and women and it's ridden with the paint of their blood. 

 

A contraption that had a more  glorious yesterday than that of today is a mishap. Our people have a name, Nkiruka - which means that the future is brighter. But where is the future of those in her yesterday? Nigeria is a jungle that produced better professors and politicians in the past than in the present. The leaders in every sphere, have nothing whatsoever to offer to her people. All they bring in abundance is traumatic pain, agony and death. 

 

Nigeria is a worm that eats up the carcass that produces it and that will eventually end up dying of hunger. Since it  exists only to bring mishaps and all manners of evil, it must be stopped from happening to us all and our generation yet unborn. If we do not all rise up and end this Nigeria, Nigeria will definitely end us all. Making sure that Nigeria dies, is a course worth living for and dying for and I will gladly work to see that happen. Will you work with us to end Nigeria or will you allow Nigeria to end you and all that concerns you? The choice is definitely yours.

When Will Nigerians Come To Terms With The Factual Death Of Buhari?

The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu  was the first to break the news about the death of the Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari and has severally challenged the Nigerian Government to prove otherwise. He brought it to the consciousness of both Nigsrians and of course, the entire global community, with so many Nigerians, vilifying him for daring to uncover the lies in Aso Rock. This however, did not deter him from his insistence on the reality, the growing hatred against him by Nigerians, nonetheless. Lending credence to Kanu's assertion, are the dangerous unfolding and overwhelming events in the country.

We should also recall how the IPOB leader, in his bid to make Nigerians come to terms with Buhari's death, had to back up his claims with a vow that he would relinquish the agitation for the restoration of Biafra if proved incorrect. After the allegations which went viral on social media and on air live radio broadcasts over time with evidential proofs, the Aso Rock handlers of the Buhari impersonator, have remained adamantly defiant in their craftiness aimed at silencing the irrefutable claims. They instead, plotted to eliminate him with the grossly compromised Nigerian media, mortaging professional journalism for frivolities. The media outlets have looked the other way, while the activities of the "masked man" (Buhari impersonator) and all manner of wickedness, hold sway.

The world should therefore note the wisdom behind the need for it to seriously covet the utterances/revelations of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, because a time will definitely come for references. Nnamdi Kanu has the keys to the future regarding Biafra and of course, the unfolding events in Nigeria, despite the  blackmail and hatred against him. The unborn generations will most assuredly study the personality of this IPOB leader because he has unmistakably stood firm in defending over time, his declaration about the dead Buhari. Pitiably, Nigerians have continued to reel in ignorance about the actual developments under their nose. They have failed to prove the contrary  about their President whose antecedents have very glaringly remained suspicious. The ideal thing to have been done, was to publicly ascertain who is really on the Nigerian seat of power instead of helping to institutionalize an impostorous element. He is supposed to be drilled live by the media with questions regarding his personality and position on very salient national issues. He must have to also be made to communicate to his tribe in FUFUDE language, to further ascertain his identity. The so-called Buhari failed as the Commander-In-Chief, to attend the burial of late Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant-General Attahiru Ibrahim amongst other officers who died recently in Kaduna plane crash. Is that act not clear enough to further confirm Kanu's claim regarding the actual identity of the man in Aso Rock?

The reasoning capacity of Nigerians is really disgusting. Both the highly placed and otherwise, are all pretending. If it were to be Prophet T.B. Joshua or any other individual that had stated that Muhammadu Buhari was dead,  such would have been swallowed hook, line and sinker. This is how Nigeria deceitfully rolls, without shame and self-worth.

What other tangible evidence do Nigerians really need to believe that the personality parading himself as their President is only but an impostor? Terrible things are successively happening and people are just carrying on unperturbed. This is the time to wake up from slumber and begin to tame this monsterous enemies called deceit and fear. Evil must have to be confronted and overthrown.

Peace Treaty Between Biafra And Fulani Is Totally An Impossibility

 

“This war will not end. With every mile, my body and spirit break. Every jolt makes brittle, my mind. Each step pulls me further from home until I am the shell of the man that kissed my mother goodbye ago, forever. And I tense endlessly. Not knowing which will arrive first, the bullet that takes my life or my final chance for redemption.” .......D. Werner, 18 years old. World War 2 first class Private. 

 

Brigitte Gabriel, a Lebanese American, a survivor of radical Islamic terror and the founder of ACT for America, offers a historical detail of how a peaceful movement turned violent. In many of her guest speakings, she talked about radical Islam and the irrelevant silent majority. In a nutshell, she explained that it does not matter the number of moderates, as long as they choose not to do what is necessary, the radical few will enslave/kill us. She further disclosed that Prophet Mohammed taught radical Islamists two strategies: one is taqqiya (which is lying to an infidel with a straight face as long as it advanced the course of Islam) and two, is the principle of war (which is a peace treaty).  

 

The Fulani, like other radical Muslims, understand Al-hadebiya. It was the first deceptive treaty Prophet Mohammed signed with Mecca. They let down their guards thinking they had a peace treaty and he invaded them unannounced and unexpected. Fulanis idolize this dark Mohammedian attribute and implement it at every twist and turn. Having conquered the Hausa race, the Fulanis in their hubristic mind, are convinced that Nigeria is theirs. They are using the two strategies to achieve their aim which is to turn the indigenous people to second class citizens who would pay protection tax. Just as it is in the Caliphate. 

 

A Pew Research in five countries with the highest Muslim population – Indonesia, Pakistan, Egypt, Nigeria and Bangladesh, in 2013, found out that seventy seven percent (77%) of world Muslims support Sharia law and a Caliphate over Constitution and country. It means that seventy seven percent (77%) of Nigeria Muslim North supports Boko Haram, Fulani herdsmen and bandits. Taqqiya has been on for long. For a peace treaty to happen, the Indigenous people must coalesce to a formidable resistance. These two strategies are what Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), codenamed the 'devil's alternative.’ That is the use of terror to conquer everyone or when a resistance is mounted, they ask for a peace treaty. And like Prophet Mohammed, within a space of ten (10) years or before, they would succeed in their mission. Either way, whether through violence or peace representative by RUGA, creation of ranch (a private business) or control of water ways, they win. 

 

Therefore, this war will not end. At least not in a peace treaty. When Prophet Mohammed claimed an angel revealed he would be the last Prophet, he went to Medina to convert the Jews. For twelve (12) years, he was only able to convert his family and close friends, thereby turning a peaceful movement into a violent one. The first Caliphate birthed and lasted for one thousand, four hundred (1400) years. Over two hundred and seventy (270) million people were cut down by sword. Western civilization was impenetrable due to development of sophisticated weaponry and formation of the Crusaders. Biafra shall acquire sophisticated weaponry and arm everyone. Every Biafran must be a Crusader. This war will rather last for million years than for Biafra to have a peace treaty with these children of darkness.

The False Narrative Of The Nigerian Army And The Mainstream Media

 

The Nigerian  military just announced the arrest of the second in command of the Eastern Security Network (ESN) after Ikonso, in Imo State. This, many know as a lie from the pit of hell. Institutionalized lying to hoodwink gullible citizens is an act which has been perfected over the years. The Nigerian media as usual, are busy writing junks about the purported arrest without making proper investigations. First of all, the man they arrested is an old man and such a person within that age bracket, is not in ESN. ESN is made up of young, vibrant men and women in their late thirties (30s) and below.  

  

The Nigerian army went into a Jewish temple in Aba, Abia Stste as they always do and forcibly arrested a man simply because they saw a picture which he took with the leader of the Indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB), Mazị Nnamdị Kanụ, back then in 2017. The sole reason for his arrest was because of this picture and nothing else. The media which ought to have conducted an investigation to assertain the real fact, are nowhere to be found, carrying out professional duties. This man in question, has committed no crime, has no flaw and it is so disheartening that the Nigerian military is hellbent on Killing the peace and love in the South-East region. It is also so annoying that the mainstream media is dishing out fallacious lies to gullible Nigerians without any investigation. The army said soldiers stormed the hideout of the Eastern Security Network (ESN) and if I may I ask, can the army show us the hideout? Can they tell us where they arrested this innocent man? Can they tell us how they knew he is an ESN member? 

  

We have to remember, that no one can kill the love and Peace that people enjoy and expect a tranquil atmosphere. No one can destroy the love and peace of the people and expect silence and normalcy. The sad tale of Boko Haram and Unknown Gunmen which ought to have taught Nigeria a lesson, seems not to have done that. 

For those spiting the Unknown Gunmen, hope you can see what the Nigerian army is doing to the innocent citizens now? What have you said about that? Why no attached vilification and disdain in this? 

Let me say it again, you cannot kill the peace and love the people enjoy and expect silence and calm. Wisdom they say is profitable to direct.

Nigerian Church: Good Shepherd Or The Wolf?

 

It would not be a surprising thing if all the newspapers in Nigeria become filled with such headlines like: “Nnamdi Kanu Insults Nigerian Pastors”, “Nnamdi Kanu calls all Nigerian Pastors fake”, “Nnamdi Kanu bombs Nigeria churches” and the rest of all those ‘brown-envelope’ inspired headlines. Such headlines are what has kept Nigeria in the dark till date since her creation by Fredrick Lugard. The media has since departed from the part of truth and will never dwell on the truthful roles the church ought to have been playing in a sane society. 

 

The body of Christ as the church is called, should be to every society, what the massage of Christ was, during his walk on earth. Christ called himself the Truth, the Way and the Life ( John 14:6), the Light (John 8:12) and the Message of the Kingdom of God (Mark 1:15). The church was positioned to  channel His human and material resources into building a replica of the kingdom of God in any society she is found. She is supposed to be at the forefront and standing on the part of truth but if the church has failed in doing this in the prevailing situation in Nigeria, then the message of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, should get to the church irrespective of whatever connotation the Nigeran media might take it to be. 

 

If the church has been the light as Christ told her to be, why then is Nigeria in darkness? If the church has been the way, why has Nigeria no direction? If the church has been the life, why is death now a way of life in Nigeria? If the church is the representation of God's kingdom, why have we not built a local government that stands for Christ? We talked more about the kingdom of God while the Fulanis changed the Constitution of Nigeria and inserted everything Islam while the Church dines and wines, building castles, auditoriums and boasting of millions of membership. 

 

If the church cares to make amends, it's time to turn a new leaf, repent and seek justice as the God we worship is a God of justice. The church must stand for the truth, stand for the people and fight from the fore. The church in Nigeria must learn from Desmond Tutu of South Africa, Pope John Paul of Poland, during the apartheid regime in South Africa and Polish Independence, respectively.  

 

The Church cannot stand by and watch wolves scatter her flock and ravenously feed on them unless as Christ said, they are hired shepherds or they are the wolves themselves. But if the Church truly is of the Good Shepherd who laid down His life for His sheep, then, the time for her to stand up and defend her flock is now. Time is running out or what befell Turkey will be a child’s play in Nigeria should the church allow this jihadi onslaught and islamisation of Nigeria, to succeed. Let the Nigerian church remember that Jesus Christ said that “...a time is coming when no one can work”.

Biafra/Nigeria: Polar Opposites In Identity, Two Parallel Destinations

I want to state that every person on earth has both biological and cultural heritage which are their true identities before God and man. The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), is not an organization or a political party of any sort but a movement of a people with a leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. The movement is one hundred percent  (100%) representing the ideology of the Biafran people on sovereignty, culture, economy and heritage, in all spheres of life.    The movement enjoys a huge following of indigenous Biafrans hence it represents the opinions of the greater population of the people. Over ninety percent (90%) of Biafrans are supporters of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu as their leader and IPOB as a movement because they have discovered the fulfillment of their age long aspirations and dreams in them. IPOB has never called for war against the Nigerian state but rather, a referendum. unfortunately, the Nigerian state has taken the call for a referendum as the call for war which is clearly demonstarted by the rulers' heavy deployment of combat soldiers to Biafraland. This has led to further killings of innocent people in market places and on the streets as it's being witnessed today in various parts of Biafra especially in Orlu, Imo State.

The peaceful protests of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), for a referendum, attracted uncivilized and extra-judicial killings of the people in Rivers (Igweocha), Akwa Ibom, Cross River, Bayelsa, Delta, Anambra, Igodomigodo (Edo), Lower Benue, Abia, Imo, Enugu, Ebonyi States, etcetera, by the Nigerian army and other security forces. The movement has remained civil and commited to rules of engagement in this freedom struggle. It is transparent to ensure that all human rights are well respected, depicting the true nature of the Biafran people. Maazi Nnamdi Kanu is a true Biafran in the sense and has led IPOB well. His resistance to government's tyranny, truth to the powers that be and advocacy for Biafrans, are just few of many attributes that many crave for and love him for. Meanwhile, these reasons have remained saliently cherished and as well, have kept the ship afloat in their drive for freedom.

These people who rose from the ashes to become one of the most enterprising people globally, are only asking for their independence but have been given death and victimization instead. They peacefully protested and were murderously shot at. Their mothers, wives and sisters were raped. These people have been blatantly denied their rights, unjustly restrained at all fronts of diplomacy. This time around, they have said never again! Never again will they allow themselves to be massacred anywhere. Nigeria definitely has pride and will insist on military brutality but could it ever be imagined that these same indigenous people are freely giving themselves to be shot dead for what they rightly believe in?  What do you think could eventually happen when they are all armed for war? This is a food for thought for the concerned.

Revelation Of Suicidal Plot In Biafraland

The visionary leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, had lamentedly warned in his last Radio Biafra broadcast: "Death is coming. Death is coming". Let him who has ears to hear, hear distinctly. From every indication, it does appear that the Nigerian terrorist government and it's compromised military, have perfected their plans to massacre Biafrans.  Like they have been doing, they will yet point accusing fingers at IPOB to distract Nigerians while they will cobtinue to carry out the same plot they have always accused IPOB of. We see what happened with the prison break at Imo State. After releasing fake intelligence that IPOB have plans to attack the prison and the Owerri Central Police Headquarters. You would think that they will put security in place to prevent such occurence. But they did not because they are the perpetrators of the said crime. 

Now they have indirectly confessed to the crime of genocide that they (tertorist government of Nigeria), their compromised military and South-East governors, are about to commit another. This is well pictured in the response to the lies of the officials of Department of Security Services (DSS) that IPOB is moving explosives in trucks from Lagos to Imo state. If actually they mean what they are saying, why did they fail to intercept the said trucks conveying the explosives as a proacrive measure in stemming the crime?

How can DSS say that IPOB is moving Explosives from Lagos to Imo State? Why from Lagos of all places? Does DSS think that IPOB can be stupid to move weapons from Lagos State to Biafraland?  This should be clear to everyone that the officials of DSS are manipulative liars. People should therefore fully know that DSS is up to something in Biafraland and must be held accountable for any eventuality.

IPOB cannot be that stupid to import weapon talkless of moving them from Lagos into Biafraland. Time and time again, the leadership of IPOB have told the world that everything that is needed to defend Biafra territories will be made in Biafraland. IPOB do not buy arms neither do they import arms. If Nigeria can criminally kill her own citizens in broad daylight, she can effortlessly go to whatever length to lie and deceive. We saw all that happened at the Lekki toll gate massacre in Lagos and up till now, nothing has changed.

The general public is hereby enjoined to totally disregard such lies from the DSS. The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), are not after innocent citizens but only FULANI TERRORISTS that are disguisingly y parading themselves as herders, as well as government agents in both army and police uniforms. 

Meanwhile, people can say and believe whatever they like about IPOB but this body has remained indestructible and formidable. We will do anything possible to save and defend our land from this Islamic TERRORISTS. Now is the time for everyone to be on alert. Watch what is going on around you and do not ever depend on your government to save you or you will all perish.

#NigeriaDisintegrationToSaveLives.

All hail IPOB Worldwide!

All hail ESN, the genuine and only Security Outfit for the Eastern region!!

All hail Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the prophet of our own time and a liberator of the oppressed!!!

Governor Okezie Ikpeazu Agrees With IPOB Amidst His Confusion

The Abia State Governor, Okezie Ikpeazu has finally spoken up amdist the evolving but totally uncomfortable developments especially, amongst the people. He has eventually agreed that the issues of marginalisation and inequality raised by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), are undeniably valid.

During a visit to the Osasu Igbinedion Pan-African Television Studio in Abuja recently, Governor Okezie Ikpeazu validated the claims of IPOB and it's leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu concerning the ongoing insecurity and inequality in the country. He said, "If they were issues of injustice, marginalisation and inequality, any part of the society has a right to begin to feel cheated or unwanted. People are beginning to think now that some of the issues raised by Nnamdi Kanu are legitimate. Some of us can see it. We cannot continue to hide behind a finger." 

He  further expressed his confusion on the strategies being employed by the group.  "....Some of us do not subscribe to his (Kanu's) style or strategy, because I do not understand where he is going, how he is going and when he plans to pull the break (up) and what he wants to achieve."

Expressing more about his views, the governor said, “If I have a way of conveying my views to the leadership of that group, what I will say is that they should find a way to enter into conversation and let people know". 

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's pronounced strategy has been the application of civil disobedience in pressing home his demands for the freedom of his people. In his various Radio Biafra broadcasts, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu had stated how his adoption of Martin Luther King Junior's and

Mahatma Gandhi's forms of civil disobediences would lead to the "restoration of Biafra". In an interview granted to Newsweek publication, Nnamdi Kanu opined his belief in the teachings of both Martin Luther King Jr. and Mahatma Gandhi when he said, "I hope that what we are looking for can be accomplished peacefully. I am an advocate of passive resistance. Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jnr. tried it to very good effects, so why should it not work in our case?" (Wikipedia)

Definitely, more eyes and minds are beginning to open up now.
