Emene Massacre: IPOB Self-Defence As Ordered, Is Nigerian Law Compliant

Emene Massacre: IPOB Self-Defence As Ordered, Is Nigerian Law Compliant

The most daunting task to be handled in human relationship, is how to effectively deal with individuals or certain group of people whose minds have been corrupted by sheer hatred particularly against their own. Why really on earth should someone in his/her right frame mind, want to cook up fallacy out of a public statement made via such a revered and global media platform as Radio Biafra?

Following the unprovoked and callously orchestrated massacre of twenty one (21) innocent, unarmed promising young Biafeans as well as the other forty seven (47) arrested, who were simply harmlessly gathered and worshipping their God in an enclosure on Sunday 23rd August 2020, at Emene, Enugu, Biafraland, hinge the unpleasant and just responses of the people. The killed/arrested were all family members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

The IPOB leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu  who has for a long while, made it known globally that   the docility of the civilized international community to come in aid to Biafrans who are being gruesomely killed by the Nigerian security forces for no just reasons, will definitely trigger off some reprisals. Biafrans would have no other alternative than to collectively defend themselves even with the self-defence mode as has been fully activated. The days of the trigger-happy Nigerian security operatives hunting down Biafrans at will, were totally over. The IPOB leader had ordered that henceforth, Biafrans should defend themselves  against all forms of killings by the Nigerian government-sponsored uniformed terrorists. This is a standing order that every serious minded individual should hold unwaveringly very dear.

And because Biafrans co-habit with chronic haters and accusers who scheme mass murders of our people and orchestrate more killings to their satisfaction, have criminally twisted what was pointedly stated. Callously quoting out of context, they said that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu ordered the IPOB family members to kill Northerners residing in Biafraland. This lie is purely evil and should be discountenounced. Biafrans have value for human life and beneath, is the order:

"IPOB has given an order from it's indefatigable leader to only defend themselves against any killing of any sort, not to kill the innocent Hausas or the Fulanis and that is what we must do because self-defence is in line with the laws of Nigeria and the United Nations, and we are law abiding".

The IPOB leader had also very clearly stated it that in Biafraland, people live in the towns and residential areas, not in bushes and forests. Therefore, anyone who wishes to stay in Biafraland should leave the bush or forest and find a house in the town. That is it and it is abundantly clear.

Open Letter To The Factional Leader Of Ohaneze Ndigbo

Open Letter To The Factional Leader Of Ohaneze Ndigbo

Dear sir,

Needles congratulating you really for it is said that when sleep becomes sweet, snoring commences. Congratulation hinges on successful/beneficial dividends the people are enjoying. Such a time is coming.

Just as John the Baptist sent forth his disciples to go and inquire from the Lord Jesus Christ, if truly he was the Messiah in the Holy book of Matthew 11:2-3; "Meanwhile, John heard in prison about the works of Christ, and he sent two of his disciples to ask Him, "Are you the One who is to come or should we look for another?

So Ohaneze Ndigbo factional President, are you the one or should we continue waiting? We hear it every passing day in multiple variants and interactions from different orators, that Igbos indeed are going through difficult times. Hope you know sir? And all this time I have been thinking our “new normal” was… well, normal.

Igbos have terribly suffered a lot over the years, from men who represented themselves and their immediate families instead of the people. There is something to that though and it is something that needs being paid attention to. Igbos are not of the contraption called Nigeria. Clearly, the Igbos are not set up for times like these in relationship with this evil entity and so, all of us are finding our patience, tolerance and fear stretched to and sometimes past the elastic and breaking point.  It is hard on all of us and for very different reasons, depending on our individual circumstances. Whatever our personal struggles may be though, there are some universal truths we should endeavor to keep in mind that we are Igbos. We are not a thing of regrets.

We have had different Ohaneze Ndigbos with so many betrayal kisses of Judas Iscariot. We have endured so many humiliation from evil men, who are parading themselves as Igbo elders. Instead of selflessly representing the interest of their own people, they prefer to put on the Igboist as a bandage to be removed anytime. They prefer living and dinning with Abuja politicians cum Fulani janjaweeds than their own people at home. They join party politics with Igbo aspirations but work with enemies who would kill Igbos and burn their shops. They condemn Igbo youths but sing praises to those who rape their women/daughters and kill them.

You should also know that Igbos are not after Nigerian politics. So, you should take  your mind away from or how an Igbo person will become Nigeria's President. Now that Ohaneze is factionalized, I hope your own group will work for Igbos and her youths, distinctly separating party politics from Igbo culture and aspiration. It must be working on the Igbos to work for Igbos. The Igbos are known for their respect for elders who perform well. Our respect is assured if you work for the alleviation  of the sufferings of Igbo people.

Kindness has not been canceled in Igboland.

Compassion has not been canceled.

Friendliness has not been canceled.

Joy and smiling have not been canceled.

Understanding has not been canceled.

Lending profitable help and assistance have not been canceled. The past Ohaneze Presidents have made things very difficult for the Igbos to the extent that the people seem to have totally lost every hope.

If you are not deeply burdened to live from a place of love towards your fellow Igbos, not moved to alleviate their sufferings, not compelled to leave people especially the dying Igbo youths better than you have met them, it is completely needles then,  calling yourself an Ohaneze Ndigbo President. This is just the glaring truth.

Thanks,

Obulose Chidiebere N.

Biafra: Eight New Family Units Of IPOB Inaugurated In Imo State

Eight New Family Units Of IPOB Inaugurated In Imo State

In keeping with the policy of ground softening across the entirety of Biafraland for the much expected rebirth of the Biafran nation, the Imo State chapter of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), swang into action yet again, to inaugurate eight additional family units. The State Coordinator, Mazi Abraham accompanied by his personal assistant, Mazi Chidiebere Echefu, duly carried out the exercise in Oru-West local government area.

Following regulatory protocols, the State Coordinator encouraged the newly inaugurated family members to remain unwavering, resolute and relentless in the struggle as the unfettered restoration of the sovereignty of the nation of Biafra, was quite imminent.

Mazi Chidiebere Echefu pleaded with the brethren to  stoutly stand against every opposition in the restoration struggle as there certainly is, a blazing light at the end of the tunnel. He further enjoined them to carefully stand against acts of betrayal against  each other, most especially the appointed principal servants. They should work together as one and in love, warning that dire consequences await saboteurs.

The Units inaugurated included:

* Umueze Unit. Mazi Edumal Okorogu is the coordinator with Mazi Obinna Agukwundu as his deputy.

* Umuajegbu Unit has Mazi Festus Obidire as the coordinator with Mazi Simeon Oguka as his deputy.

* Umuezike Unit has Mazi Mike Ezekude as the coordinator and Mazi Emeka Unegbu as his deputy.

*Okwu Unit has Mazi Paul Ezekude as the coordinator and Mazi Ezekiel Ude as deputy.

* Abalato Unit has Mazi Lawrence Obidiokpu and Mazi Obinna Nwabudo as his deputy.

* Aladimma Unit has Mazi Kenneth Ewuchiorji as the coordinator while Mazi Obi Chinonso emerged as deputy.

* Umuike Umunze Unit has Mazi Nonso Odimegwu as the coordinator with Mazi Godfrey Okpe, deputizing.

* Ihitte Ajii Unit is being coordinated by Mazi Ihiemegbulem Sunday and he is being deputized by Mazi Leonard Mmega.

The Imo State Coordinator, Mazi Abraham instructed that all the inaugurated family units should dutifully embark on rugged mobilization/evangelism thrust within their respective localities as means of taking the good news of Biafra restoration to the people. This he maintained, are the only sure tools for increase and expansion in Obiasogbe, Oru-West local government area.

He concluded by enjoining the newly inaugurated units' coordinators, to totally avoid selfishness and partisanship in their undertakings, for their uniqueness in the job is premised on integrity.

Mazi Chidiebere Echefu said the closing prayer, with the people of Oru-West exuding joy and fulfillment.

Biafra: What Will Save Endangered Christians In Nigeria

Biafra: What Will Save Endangered Christians In Nigeria

By Elochukwu Nicholas Ohagi
For Family Writers Press International.

Priests and Pastors in Nigeria are the greatest advocate of peace. Every Sunday, they are seen speaking into the minds of their faithfuls, urging them to embrace peace and pray to God Almighty for him to restore peace to Nigeria. They ask their congregation to know that as Christians, what they owe to their leaders is prayers.

This have made the people the puppets of the politicians, as the people keep praying for God to come down and change the mindset of the politicians, so that they will stop looting and start providing infrastructure for the people. However, the more they pray, the more the politicians keep looting them dry. The hospitals in Nigeria are nothing short of slaughter houses. There is absolutely no infrastructural facility for the people. The people don't even know that it is the duty of the government to provide housing for them. The teachings from the men of God seem to have cowed the people into accepting virtually every abuse, neglect and ineptitude from the government.

The Christian faith abhors violence; hence the priests and pastors have made sure the people are so peaceful. I am a Christian and I am peaceful too; but are we to become too peaceful not to rise up in defense of our lives?

We saw the Islamic extremists behead Adamawa CAN President. We saw how a pastor and his wife were killed in one of the northern states as they were tending to their farms.

We saw this same Islamic extremists kill two Catholic priests celebrating Holy Mass in Benue, together with other 17 congregation.

We saw them shoot and kill a Catholic priest in Enugu state.
What of the woman-pastor killed in Abuja by these Islamists just for preaching the gospel? Not excluding the seminarian from Uga , Anambra State killed in Kaduna state. Many attacks in many towns and villages. Islamic Fulani Herdsmen went to Agatu in Benue state and killed over 300 people in one night.

Where is the peace you have been praying for? Yes, I believe in prayers, yet I don't think we should only pray and do nothing.

This is the time for pastors and priests in Biafra Land to stop standing with the government and for once stand with the people and for the people. The government have proven to be the enablers of corruption. They are in support of the activities of the Islamists. If you doubt me, then you tell me how many Islamic Fulani herdsmen are presently under arrest in Nigeria? How come a community will be attacked for hours by herdsmen without the security operatives coming to the rescue? Are you not seeing them pay captured Boko Haram terrorists and recruit them into the military. Didn't you hear them say that a repentant Boko Haram member can become the president of Nigeria?

What peace are you still preaching? Is it when they kill us all that you will understand that you have to tell people to start doing something? Do you think an attack on your congregation will leave you alive? Can't you see what is happening?

Without revolution, nothing will change. Without the people rising up, the politicians will never stop. Prayers without work is dead. Why then do you forget that the people should not just pray without doing something? Martin Luther King was a priest. He prayed and as well did something. We need our pastors and priests at this moment. Enough of the silence.

The era of telling the people to go get their PVC and vote is long gone. The Federal government of Nigeria doesn't care again if voters refuses to vote for their anointed candidate or not. They will just rig their political puppet into office, and when they can't, there is the supreme Court that will do it for them.

Listen,

There is no amount of prayers that will keep people that believe in killing and destruction at peace with those who don't have such ideology. Relevant positions steering the affairs of Nigeria are occupied by 98% Muslims, including different security agencies which are equally headed by Muslims. Not forgetting that in Islam, Christians are seen as infidels. And according to the teaching of Islam, infidels are always meant to be killed.

This is exactly why we are demanding for Biafra. We want a situation where we can protect ourselves from annihilation from those that doesn't believe in religious freedom.

It is the policy of the United States to engage robustly and continually with civil society organizations — including those in foreign countries — to inform United States Government policies, programs, and activities related to international religious freedom.

Sec. 2. Prioritization of International Religious Freedom. Within 180 days of the date of this order, the Secretary of State (Secretary) shall, in consultation with the Administrator of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), develop a plan to prioritize international religious freedom in the planning and implementation of United States foreign policy and in the foreign assistance programs of the Department of State and USAID.

(b) In meetings with their counterparts in foreign governments, the heads of agencies shall, when appropriate and in coordination with the Secretary, raise concerns about international religious freedom and cases that involve individuals imprisoned because of their religion.

(c) The Secretary shall advocate for United States international religious freedom policy in both bilateral and multilateral fora, when appropriate, and shall direct the Administrator of USAID to do the same.

Sec. 5. Training for Federal Officials. (a) The Secretary shall require all Department of State civil service employees in the Foreign Affairs Series to undertake training modeled on the international religious freedom training described in section 708(a) of the Foreign Service Act of 1980 (Public Law 96-465), as amended by section 103(a)(1) of the Frank R.

We Will Keep Saying It, "Aso Rock Is Empty"---IPOB Leader, Nnamdi Kanu

We Will Keep Saying It, "Aso Rock Is Empty"---IPOB Leader, Nnamdi Kanu

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu

The statement that Aso Rock is empty, forms part of many revelations being made by the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, calls for serious attention and comprehensive investigation. This should be so if the alleged over two hundred (200) million people forcefully annexed in to the Nigerian enclave, amongst whom are the intelligentsia, do not want to be seen by the civilized global community as being disgustingly ignorant, foolish and cowards.

It has been tremendously trending in virtually all social media platforms that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the astute leader of the most formidable freedom fighting group globally, has since 2017, claimed knowledge of the death of the Nigerian elected President, Muhammadu Buhari who was secretly buried in Saudi Arabia. One Jubril Aminu was contracted from Sudan as a body double to beguil gullible Nigerians. Kanu has consistently made available, verifiable proofs to justify his claims but none of the family members of the dead President nor the Nigerian government has boldly challenged it in the contrary.

Recently, the IPOB leader, came up to yet assert that even the impostor has equally died in Cuba due to the deadly coronavirus infection. He maintained unequivocally, that Aso Rock is presently empty with even the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, no where to be found. These revelations were further supported by his explanation of the prevailing developments within the Nigerian seat of power. The governance of the country has plunged for the rocks, quite in contrast to all that would have been happening with the presence of an elected President.

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu  commenced his latest launch of attacks on the Nigerian presidency on Radio Biafra live broadcasts precisely two weeks back following the death of the defacto Nigerian President cum Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari. Kanu had predicted that late Buhari's widow, Aisha, was gradually assuming power albeit from the back door, as the Nigerian President. The IPOB leader claims that Alhaji Abba Kyari has since early 2017 when Buhari died, been manipulating Aso Rock to the advantage of the Fulani cabals. In his last radio broadcast on Wednesday 27th May 2020, he reiterated that Aisha Buhari has taken over the office of the President with her boy friend and is presently holding executive meetings. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu intelligently argued that if the elected Nigerian President in the real person of Muhammadu Buhari, a retired Army General, were yet alive and in office, his wife Aisha, would under no condition whatsoever, be the one calling the shots.

Nigeria is supposedly an independent state that is well known globally for it's vantage position in the African continent as "The Giant of Africa". It consists of divergent ethnic nationalities from where men and women of different calibres and intectualism holding sway around the world emerged. The President's office in Abuja, Nigeria's federal capital, is doubtlessly the strongest office in the country and does not stand to play down this high profile allegations as raised.

Considering the class of personalities in Nigeria in different fields of endeavor moreover, it completely amounts to cowardice to act ignorant of such a classical information because it is on record that Nigerians elected their President into office in 2015. They have the inalienable right to really verify if the person they voted into power is still the one in charge and that he is not dead, with convincing evidences. Failure to do this, is a confirmatory pointer to the world that Nnamdi Kanu's assertions are true.

This can only be carried out by strongly and determinedly pressuring those presently at the helm of affairs in Abuja, to publicly present the old man to address Nigerians live and take questions from uncompromised media practioners. This will in no small measure, disapprove of the ongoing insinuations/campaigns being carried out by the IPOB leader. Otherwise, it will be reasonably accepted that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's alertment to the world all this while, has been correct after all.

Biafraland Is Under Siege--Kanu Laments

Biafraland Is Under Siege--Kanu Laments

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu

In his exposé on live Radio Biafra broadcast on Wednesday 27th May 2020, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) globally, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, pointedly made it known to all that the entire Biafra territory is currently under siege by the Fulanis. He called on Biafrans all over the world to rise up as one and defend the land against these vampiric marauders from the Sahel.

He referenced his earlier warnings to the Eastern political leaders, governors, Ohaneze Ndigbo, PANDEF etcetera, about the prevalent criminal invasion of the Fulanis way back in the year 2017 particularly, following his release from Kuje prison but they never listened. Instead, they ganged up to have him eliminated through their connivance with the Northern political almajiris who launched "Operation Python Dance II" at his village residence in Afara-ukwu Ibeku, Abia State, on the 14th of September 2017. In that murderous military invasion, over 28 promising, innocent Biafrans were killed and properties worth millions of dollars, totally destroyed.

The IPOB leader maintained that the nefarious/selfish attitude of an Igboman towards his own brother, was what gave the erronous belief to people that Igbos are an impossible class of beings to associate with. "If you ask Igbo people for help, you are in trouble unless they are benefitting from it. Look at your land, it is under siege and you are in America eating hamburger, gossiping and doing your village sense".

He equally apportioned blame on those working against their own people just to retain their self-serving political positions. He stated that it could only but take a very simple cooperation from them to stop the Fulani janjaweed influx into Biafraland. Regrettably, they could not do it due to their greed and village envy. "Out of your complacency and stupidity, our land has been invaded", he further stressed, recounting how he personally visited the World Igbo Congress (WIC) in the United States of America to warn them about this dangerous development way back in 2015, but all to no avail.

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu speaking on the presence of over 300 armed Fulani jihadists presently discovered in Uzoakoli, Bende local government area of Abia State, said that those American based Biafrans gossiping about IPOB, should come down to chase them out. He reminded them that their complicity in the betrayal and treachery against IPOB is now yielding dividends and that the Fulani invasion of Biafraland today is the resultant effect of such lunacy. Kanu maintained that as a result of the greediness of the Igbos, our people have been pushed into a very perilous situation.

On the Fulani invasion, vandalizalion and destruction of five communities in Ebonyi State, the IPOB leader said that sadly enough, there were no documented reports concerning the horrendous incidents by the mainstream Nigeria media just because Yoruba journalists in charge are all in comlicity with the Fulanis. It is their plan to wipe away the Biafran race from the surface of the earth by all means conceivable. On what IPOB is doing to checkmate the activities of these Islamic killers and defend Biafraland, Kanu queried: "Do you know how many enemies we have? We have enemies everywhere and if you do not know, let me tell you. Our enemies are numerous. There are some you can see and there are some you cannot see. Facebook is our enemy, do you not know that? Tell me any media house that is with IPOB? Our enemies are even in Australian government.

The government of Australia, they have bribed some of them. Our enemies are there. If you know how I am battling with the Australian government, you will not believe it. Do you know that even Voice of America (VOA), canceled my interview with them?". He proceeded to state that the Nigerian government through its agents, is seriously lobbying the white people to stop the quest for Biafra restoration. He thereby warned IPOB family members to be wary of such enemies that dot every sphere. "Anybody from Igboland, making videos and voice notes against IPOB is a Fulani apologist". Such persons should be disregarded. "They are agents of the zoo called Nigeria".

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu further made the assertion that the only way out of this messy situation Biafrans presently found themselves, is by having Biafra sovereignty fully restored. He pointedly stated that Biafra is the becon and when the nation becomes free, other people will most certainly take a queue. He stressed that in an independent Biafra, lies the hope of Africa.

Lashing out on Aso Rock, he reiterated his statements that the presidential seat still remains unoccupied. To butress his point that there exists neither the President nor his Vice, he said that Aisha Buhari is the one now calling the shots in the country with her boy friend who masquerades like Buhari, wearing hyper-reality face mask to further beguil gullible Nigerians.

The IPOB leader in proving the authenticity of his assertion, played an audio clip of a popular Yoruba pastor, Bishop Oyedepo of Winners Chapel, who read to his congregation, a publication of Tuesday 27th of November 2018, of a write-up by another Yorubaman of the death of President Muhammadu Buhari whose body double was contracted from Sudan. This proved his (Kanu's) alertment to the world from his village residence at Afara-ukwu Ibeku, Umuahia, Abia State, in 2017 after his release from detention, that Buhari was dead and was being impersonated by Aminu Jubril Al-Sudani.

The audio message from Oyedepo read thus: "How can the largest black nation in the world, be heading for a perpetual slavery without people knowing it? This disturbing information came from the Nations Newspaper of Tuesday 27th November 2018, written by one Olatunji Dare, exploding with authoritative assertions, he said, claiming amongst others that President Muhammadu Buhari had died in the United kingdom in 2017 where he was undergoing medical treatment. That the cabals in Aso Rock had procured a Buhari double in Sudan and placed him as the Nigerian President; and that the representative of the Jubril's family that is Buhari's supposed impostor, having discovered the gigantic swindle, suddenly showed up in Abuja the other day and demanded to be compensated with power sharing arrangement at the federal level in perpetuity, plus 50% oil revenue for ten (10) years in the first instance.

That was on the back page of the Nations Newspaper of Tuesday 27th November 2018, and that, I quote feeling this that they will tell their stories to the whole world. He further stated that Nigeria authorities have entered into frantic negotiation with Jubril's family to head off what is sure to be the worst, dirtiest, kept secret. He concluded by saying that Britain is mediating it's end. So far to my knowledge, no official statement has refuted this claim. The question then is, as Nigeria now suddenly becomes a population of fools, I believe it is time to come away from our slumber and salvage this nation from slavery. If this evil tide is not dealt with quickly and decisively, Nigeria may be about to be re-colonized the second time and this time, by another African county. What a shame and what a misfortune will be!".

Meanwhile, the IPOB leader urged every member to head to the social media. According to him, "We are telling our own story, nobody is telling it for us. I want every IPOB family unit to have a 'Social Media Manager, we are storming Twitter, we will end the zoo (Nigeria) with reasons and intelligence".

He eventually rounded up the broadcast by calling out the names of the persons mostly women, that would henceforth, be saddled with the responsibility of managing IPOB financial accounts. Such personalities include the over all IPOB Accountant-General, Mrs. Nnennaya Anya, with the mandate of having unhindered access to IPOB accounts globally, Rabbi (Mrs.) Okafor, Madam Oyibo and two other female members in charge of IPOB enquiry lines. Kanu further declared that IPOB accounts in the United States of America and elsewhere would henceforth, be managed by only selected female members, ordering that besides these, people should purely disregard any online financial account(s) claiming to be from IPOB because they are fraudulent.

Biafra: Allow us To Try - Tari Nemi An Izon Activist Berates Izon Elders

Biafra: Allow us To Try - Tari Nemi An Izon Activist Berates Izon Elders

In his strong worded open letter of refutal to the misleading claims by some Izon elders/leaders regarding their disappointing statements about their identity vis-a-vis the Biafra restoration question, the revolutionary writer, freedom activist and refined teacher - Tari Nemi, definitively stated: "Your generation tried and failed, now our generation wants to try, yet your generation would not allow us. Many of you with the exception of few like Mama Annkio Briggs (even though we still disagree on opinions), are not doing anything to see us free and soon you will leave this world for us still in slavery, God forbids"!

"During your days as youths, you guys had better days in Nigeria and enjoyed a little but our days are filled with hardship and brutality, yet you would not want us to try. When many of you were in our ages, you were already leaders of industries and governments and till today, most of you still occupy such positions leaving the majority of us to scramble for the crumbs and we are fighting hard to liberate ourselves, yet you would not let us fight our enemies in peace".

Continuing, Tari Nemi said: "Yes, you have experience and you have told us your experience, would you not allow us be the judge? What makes you feel that our generation cannot make better decisions for ourselves after hearing your stories?".

"Success has no judge. If your decisons of old were right, we would not be born to correct the mistakes you made. Yes, you made mistakes because if you did not, we would have been free people today, not living in fear of Fulani herdsmen militia attacking us in the middle of the night".

The revolutionary writer factually stressed further in the letter saying: "I am tired of hearing, 'you inexperienced youth'. You are not God and so, you are not infallible. All you preach to us is fear of the Igboman yet in our generation, beyond the ethnic groups in the so-called Niger Delta, only the Igbos have showed us love as a family".

"Our generation will continue to agitate for our freedom through Biafra with an alliance of documented agreement binding us, a feat you could not do with any group you supported with your lives in the past. Isaac Adaka Boro aligned with the Fulanis without any agreement and met his death in the hands of the Yorubas who got an agreement with the Fulanis. This is our lives, so let us do what we know is right".

He defiantly continued: "We must preach the freedom Biafra brings to every Ijaw  man and they must all make their decisions for themselves. Gone are the days when few decide for many. Today Ijaw National Congress (INC), is far more disorganized than the Ijaw Youth Congress (IYC) yet, INC was supposed to be the elders group of Izon nation guiding IYC. Yet, it seems IYC should be guiding them. If INC which is your generation cannot organize themselves as elders, why should we trust your judgements as youths which you want to force on our throats today? If Biafra can let me have 100% resource control in Ijaw nation and autonomy, what else am I struggling for?".

The prolific writer further queried: "If I should not have to bother whether an Igboman will dominate any business and market because in Ijaw nation, he must co-own any business he wants to do with a fellow Ijawman, why should I fear? If the Igboman is ready to die with me in struggling for freedom and live peacefully with me afterwards, why should I bother? Igbos are the majority in Igweocha (Port Harcourt), yet some of us love Port Harcourt more than our State capital, Yenegoa (Bayelsa).  So if Igbos are not good people to live with, why have we not fought with them or have any reason to fight with them?".

"We keep talking of how Igbos cannot be trusted, yet we have fought with all our neighbors against injustice including Yoruba in Lagos but we have never fought with the Igbos, why? Is it not because they are peaceful people who would not take what is not theirs? An Igboman will insult you but thebFulani will kill you, yet some of you our elders will tell us that a Fulani man is better than an Igboman not minding that the Fulani will take you to stone age while the Igbo will industrialize your village".

"Please think about this and let us make our mistakes, it might just be the right thing because a man which makes the mistakes of his father, is a FOOL who will not live to see the glory of his son", Tari Nemi conclusively admonished.

2020 BIAFRA DAY : IPOB DECLARES 3-DAY GLOBAL PRAYERS

2020 BIAFRA DAY : IPOB DECLARES 3-DAY GLOBAL PRAYERS

We, the global and indefatigable family of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the  prophet and liberator of our time, wish to announce to the people of Biafra, friends of Biafra, enemies of  Biafra, lovers of freedom, as well as the  world that Biafrans will remember and commemorate our fallen heroes and heroines who made the supreme sacrifice for us to live , on 30th of May 2020.

 After much consideration and deliberations IPOB high command decided to urge Biafrans both home and in the diaspora,  observe this year's rememberance and celebration of our brothers and sisters who were killed and starved to death during the genocidal war on the peaceful land of Biafra by Nigeria government and her foreign allies including Britian,  Egypt, USSR and Czechs Republic between 1967 and 1970, through fasting and prayers. The programme for this year's event, will last for three days from 27th to  30th of May, 2020.

This year's episode and event will start with prayers and end with prayers. There will also be  candle processions at every state, LGA, ward and  church in our land. It is very imperative that our people observe these great days for those who paid ultimate price and sacrificed their youthful lives for our own lives to be today. This great event will start on 27th and end on 30th of May.


There won't be  any sit- at -home or indoors because our people stayed much days at home during the coronavirus lockdown. IPOB wouldn't like to  bother  people with another lockdown in form of sit-at -home.

This year's anniversary will begin with reading of  Psalms of David from chapter 1 to the last chapter. Every individual and group(s) should  observe this year"s prayer designed to remember our fallen heroes and heroines who paid the  ultimate price for our living.

 Nigeria government and her partners in crime decided to wipe out the whole race but God Almighty in Heaven, 'Chukwu Okike Abiama' said no to that through these our brethren who sacrificed their lives for us to live.

Therefore, IPOB families and Biafrans across countries of the world are encouraged to use this year's anniversary to pray for all our fallen heroes including all those who were killed by the overzealous Nigeria security personnel in the course of the renewed quest to restore Biafra.

We shall also use this year's event to pray for divine protection of all Biafrans everywhere on the surface of the earth against the covid-19 pandemic ravaging the world. We shall also pray for the speedy recovery of all those infested with the scourge, and for immediate end of the global pandemic.

This is One-Nigeria! Yet people complain that the North is poor.

With these analyses, could one still stand to defend why Northern part of this contraption called Nigeria yet remains the poorest? Northern Nigeria is just wearing the badge of wounded self esteem to confuse the whole world because out of knowledge, North is not poor in the real sense of poverty. But it is arrogantly mentally poor, wicked, selfish and so  backward in issues pertaining to political/economic, development and contemporary trends/lifestyle. Northern elites have ruled Nigeria for most years but have woefully failed to develop their land due to their wicked selfishness and foolishness. Despite the looting of the national treasury by the Fulani military and their fellow Northern politicians, the North has remained irredeemably poor and they should contend with that.

Oraifite Bloody Invasion/Carnage: Affected Families And Victims Cry Out For Justice Against The Nigerian Security Forces

Oraifite Bloody Invasion/Carnage: Affected Families And Victims Cry Out For Justice Against The Nigerian Security Forces.

Almost 23 weeks running after the heinous carnage perpetrated by the combined team of the Nigerian Security Forces (Police, Army) and others in the ancestral home of Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor in Oraifite, on Monday 2nd December 2019, it is disappointing to state that justice has not yet been served by the authorities concerned against this heartwrenching bloodlet. Lives were lost and properties worth millions of naira were wantonly destroyed by the invading armed Nigerian security operatives,  illegally drafted to unleash mayhem/havoc on a mourning home, which bloody onslaught was reportedly bankrolled by Oraifite controversial businessman, Emeka Orakwue Offor, at the behest of government at the center.

Displaced members of Ejiofor's family and  affected members of the community are crying out loud to good spirited individuals to come to their aid. Their homes/shops were thoroughly looted and brazenly burnt down and consequently destroyed by the combined team of the Nigerian police force and the army, on that fateful day of 2nd December 2019, during this murderously invasion of the home of Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor. Four (4) unarmed, innocent citizens were gruesomely murderd, with several others sustaining various degrees of gunshot wounds, including Barrister Ejiofor's aged mother who is yet down with gun shot injuries. Vehicles and household properties amongst other valuables, were carefully looted and remnants completely destroyed by the invading    monsters in security uniforms.

Recall that Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor who doubles as IPOB and Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's Attorney, had barely  concluded the burial rites of his late brother, Reverend Chukwukpelum Louis Ejiofor, who died on Wednesday 9th October 2019, when this heinous carnage was visited on his household. Though  Barrister Ejiofor was targeted for elimination during this bloody invasion of his ancestral home,  but by divine act of providence, he was not at home at the time of the attack,  whose absence angered the invading assassins in security uniform and consequently resulted to their  reckless shooting and killing of innocent people in his house.

Although hearing on the case filed by Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor has commenced at the Nigerian Federal High Court, Awka, Anambra State, a couple of months ago but the affected families currently displaced by this unfortunate occurence are in dire need of speedy intervention of well spirited individuals and Government Agencies  to rebuild their homes and reunite with their immediate environment,  which excruciating circumstance has been worsened by the devastating effect of Covid-19 pandemic currently ravaging the entire country. The issues of loss of means of livelihood (shops and goods) as a result of these barbaric acts of the Nigerian security operatives have indeed greatly worsened the chances of survival of the victims even in the face of the present critical economic realities.

In an interview conducted by Family Writers Press International,  disturbing revelations abound. Aged mothers/women between the ages of 60 and 90 years,  fell victims of torture and brutality during this callous attack in Oraifite community. Most of them courageously narrated their gory experiences during the raid of their various homes on that fateful day, which accounts ranged from beating, molestation and threats of death by the police officers. One of the old women narrated how gallons of water were emptied on her and failed attempt to set her ablaze. The security operatives were disappointed to learn that the substance emptied on her was not fuel but water, otherwise she would have been a dead person by now. She further revealed that all the window louvres of her home within the neighborhood, were shattered. Those glasses remain unreplaced till date due to financial difficulty.

On Tuesday 12th May 2020, Family Writers Press International crew frantically tried to reach out to other victims of the carnage in their homes within the community for additional first hand information of all that transpired. It was all same line of story as the victims painfully noted that it was pathetically  unlawful and despicably inhuman for supposed protectors of the innocent citizens, to unleash such levels of criminality/mayhem against them. Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor's family members who are presently homeless, as well as other affected persons in the neighborhood are still living in shock of the unspeakable experience and are still hugely traumatized even as they crave for justice against this bizarre misadventure.

The innocent citizens of Oraifite community, therefore use this medium to appeal to the conscience of the concerned authorities, good spirited individuals and of course human rights bodies, to come to their aid. Justice must be done and most importantly, seen to have been done in this crime against humanity.

Africa: Ojukwu is not here but Biafra is alive

Africa: Ojukwu is not here but Biafra is alive

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu left and Late Ikemba Ojukwu right

The indefatigable leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) globally, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has said that the emergence of the late tyrannical  Army General, Muhammadu Buhari as the President of Nigeria under the All Progressive Congress party-led administration, is a veritable pathway through which Biafra will re-emerge as a nation. He pointedly made this statement during his live broadcast on Radio Biafra, transmitted globally from it's London base on Sunday 10th May, 2020.

He declared: "As ChukwuOkike Abiama promised us and as was revealed to me in the year 2014, I was told that Buhari is the key to our freedom. And I preached it on this very hallowed platform and I said that this very dictator, this brutal, evil, wicked, mass murderer, is our passport to freedom and today,  it has happened. The zoo (as he normally refers Nigeria to), has collapsed completely and totally, there is nothing holding it!".

The IPOB leader further stated that Biafra restoration was only a matter of months away and that when he went to Aba for the 30th of May (Biafra Heroes and Heroines Remembrance Day) 2015, he had proclaimed during that very rally under  spiritual guidance of heaven, that Nigeria must fall and today, it has fallen. He maintained that it was the very prophecy of a certain Yoruba pastor that stated the crumbling of Nigeria if the government failed to pay heed to the warning. That prophecy was even made while he was yet unlawfully incarcerated in the Nigerian prison.

He proceeded to play the audio clip of the pastor who had foretold the coming of Biafra. The message read thus: "You cannot fight an 'ideology'. Ideology is like a spirit. You cannot use guns and bullets to stop an ideology. You rather engage it with wisdom. The only bullet that can kill an ideology is the bullet of knowledge. Wisdom! Wisdom!! The only way to deal with an ideology is to go back to the founder of the ideology and reprogram the ideology and stand at the central processing unit of the ideology, make sure it is rightfully corrected. If you remove the leader, have you removed the ideology? There are crazy Nnamdi Kanus that will come up after Nnamdi, they are just hiding under him. The only way to kill this, is not by gun and bullet, it is by engaging with programmed dialogue, with knowledge and wisdom. This cry we are hearing here is not a cry of children. It is a cry of adults! The only way, the best way to handle this, is to listen to the cries of the people. Everything is not gun and bullet.

When you take their leader away, okay, take the leader away! The best and many people are still out there on the streets. Do you know how many spirits of Biafra that have entered into the people? Do you know how many millions of people that carry the spirit of Biafra around? If you kill or you take their leader away, are you going to remove the spirit from everybody? Ojukwu is not here but Biafra is alive. Biafra is an ideology! The man who started it has left. Before he left, he kept quiet and lived peacefully and left, but the generation that has come, has picked it up and it is even worse than his own now. They are engaging it with knowledge. The best way to deal with this is not by guns and bullets.....the issue of Biafra is very spiritual.....".

Revealing the true state of the Nigerian leadership presently, Kanu affirmed that there is neither a President nor a Vice, running the country. He stated that the reason why they are now using the word: "Presidency" which actually is an indication that Nigeria is being run by a certain group of people known as the cabals and not the Head of State, Muhammadu Buhari or his Vice, Yemi Osinbajo. He then rhetorically asked: "Now, why are you answering 'Presidency' in Nigeria? The reason why you are answering Presidency in Nigeria is because, there is no President. Presidency is a group of people, a cabal! It was introduced under Abba Kyari. I want all of you to go back to 2015 and 2016, it is an assignment. Write it down on a piece of paper. Also go back to 2013, 2014, 2015; go back from Obasanjo's time, go through every statement issued, every publication issued and count how many times under Obasanjo, under Yar'Adua, under Jonathan, that the word ‘Presidency’ was used to describe the Nigerian President. Go and ask or check! This fashion of 'Presidency' only came in, with this liberal, it came with them!".

Recall that the IPOB leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has many times, publicly declared Buhari dead on Radio Biafra platform. According to him, Buhari died since 14th February 2017 and buried in Saudi Arabia. But due to the treachery of the Nigerian leaders, they conspired to conceal it and get the dead Buhari replaced with an impostor named Jubril Al-Sudani (a man from Sudan), using a hyper reality face mask and a certain deep fake technology, to continue to lie to gullible Nigerians so that power will still remain in the North till 2023. Further elaborating on the program called "Deep Fake" technology that the Aso Rock cabals are using to deceive Nigerians, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu presented an evidential video clip which he posted on his Facebook page for the whole world to see. The video clip portrays an actor impersonating the former United States President, Barrack Obama, using the same 'Artificial Intelligence' (AI) program. 'Deep Fake' according to him, is a Hologram Technology  invented by  Chinese scientists which makes it possible for someone to impersonate another person which is really not there by just using the existing videos or pictures of the person.

Blaming Nigerians over their blunt refusal to rise up and place a demand for the whereabouts of their Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, who has remained incommunicado since the ill health of Abba Kyari, the former Nigerian Chief of Staff to the President and who had played the role of a defacto President before he contracted Covid-19 and was declared dead on Friday 17th April 2020 by the "Office of the Presidency", Kanu affirmatively maintained that Aso Rock is empty. He said that Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, has been kidnapped and that the person running the country now, is Aisha Buhari, the wife of late Muhammadu Buhari.  He also stated that  because they could not find a suitable replacement for late Abba Kyari, they had to kidnap Osinbajo and then place Aisha Buhari in charge so that power will still remain in the North till the expiration of late Buhari's second tenure as the Nigerian President in 2023.

Meanwhile, according to the Nigerian Vanguard News Headline of Saturday 9th May 2020: "The Presidency Charges Nigerians To Ignore Claims On Osinbajo’s Whereabouts. "What is happening now in Nigeria is a travesty! It is a shame and a disgrace", Kanu cried out.

He said that the learned people in Yorubaland have refused to speak up against the evil/conspiracy, going on even against their own son and father, Vice President, who has been placed under house arrest by the Northern Fulani cabal just because they are too afraid that if Biafra goes, they would be left with only the Fulani people. That is why they have kept on supporting this evil that is ongoing in Nigeria.

"The only thing keeping Nigeria today is cowardice, those who are afraid to do what is right". Mazi Nnamdi Kanu further stated that the calamitous consequence of What Aisha Buhari and the rest of the cabals are doing in Nigeria, is imminent. He said that the people involved in this treacherous activities would all go to jail in due time. He reiterated that it is better that Aisha comes out clean now and clear her own name before it would be too late for her. He also said that IPOB has caged them all in the zoo (Nigeria). IPOB is like a black mamba snake, very dangerous and poisonous and that he has injected this poison of truth into the very foundation of Nigeria which has now crumbled, he further assured. 

Strongly proving his claims, the erudite scholar went ahead to play an audio clip of statements from the Northern Arewa Elders Forum: "The leadership of Muhammadu Buhari has failed the nation in the area of improving the security. Poverty, particularly in the North and massive social security problems have worsened under this administration (APC led). Northern Elders Forum has been refrained from comments relating to the management of national security and governance because it is convinced that these are times which require the highest levels of responsibility and circumspection in the manner elders and the leaders of the nation contribute to the search for solution to the multiple problems which face the nation. On national security, the forum regrets that the leadership of Muhammadu Buhari has failed the nation". Kanu moreover, stated that if Buhari were to be alive, the Northern Elders Forum would not say all that about him.

Speaking on the vaccination that members of the Nigeria House of Representatives are yet debating on to pass into law, Kanu categorically warned that they should not bring such a program into Biafraland because his people do not need it. "If you bring that thing to Biafraland, we will take it and inject you with it", he thundered.

On the issue of the so-called Almajiris from the North into Biafra territory, the IPOB leader emphatically urged the South-East and South-South Governors to arise and man up to their responsibilities and do the needful by protecting the land from Fulani invasion. He made it clear that the Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai is the one championing the influx of the Fulani foot soldiers on trucks as "diseased Almajiris" from the North. He stressed that their core agenda has always been to conquer and Islamise the country.

Touching on the recent statement by Ralph Uwazuruike who has been going about deceiving his credulous followers that he has secured the registration of Biafra in the United Nations through UNPO which is an Organization that is Non-Governmental (NGO), Kanu pointedly stated, is a sham. According to him, UNPO is nothing more than that which has absolutely nothing to do with the political status of Biafra.  He further stated that IPOB is going straight to personalities that matter in global politics and not to some organizations that are looking for those to defraud. The IPOB leader concluded his exposé/lecture by saying that the organization which he leads, will never allow anybody whatsoever, to continue to lie to the people, using the name of Biafra. He warned Uwazuruike, the MASSOB leader, to desist forthwith from such childish lies and deceits.

The Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodimma was also warned to stop tasking the people of Ezinihitte Mbaise, over raising sums of money running into millions, to pay Fulani herdsmen on their alleged missing cattle. Kanu maintained that Biafrans have equally lost fortunes at it's worst and even killed in the North and in the West without anybody thinking about raising any form of compensation for them.

Nigeria Government Instigating Identity Crisis Among Biafrans

Nigeria Government Instigating Identity Crisis Among Biafrans

By Elochukwu Nicholas Ohagi

Let me tell you something, Many people don't actually know exactly what Nigeria did to us during and after the war. I have a document where a missionary narrated his experience in Calabar. How the Nigeria Federal Government invaded Calabar and massacred people.

He would have been a victim, if not for a Middle belt commander of the Nigeria military who is a Catholic. It was so terrible. Today, the atrocities of these Nigeria forces is blamed on the Igbos. Some even said Ndị Igbo carried it out themselves. Imagine Ndị Igbo using the limited weapons to fight their own people? By the way, is Igbo the only soldiers in Biafra?

Like I said, many things happened, forcing people to deny their identity.

Older Onitsha men and women till this very day still don't regard themselves as Igbo. They detest Igbo and always call you 'nwa Onye Igbo'(son of an Igbo man/woman). They push you out with this sad look that spits racism. 'Bịa nwa onye Igboa' always said in a derogatory manner. Those that lived in Onitsha after the war can bear witness to this.

Imagine if Onitsha were to be included in today's South South like the military government of IBB wanted to do. We will have many 'detribalized intellectuals' from there writing how they don't have any Igbo ancestry. Their non inclusion in South South tamed the futuristic madness that would have enveloped them.

So you can imagine what is going on in the mind of an average Asaba man or Anioma in general. I mean those of them with acute identity crisis. One told my brother he is not Igbo. The war and the policies Nigeria embarked on after the war was just to destroy Igbo people through divide and rule. They used lots of prominent Ndị Igbo from Anioma, Ikwere, Etche etc to perfect this. That is why today, a brother to Kaduna Nzeogwu will shamelessly come out to say he is not Igbo.

The creation of South South is a blunder, and the name Niger Delta is a slave name. I still don't understand how someone located in Imo state should be answering South East, while someone in the extreme East in Calabar will be answering South South. How can Rivers and Akwaibom be answering South South, while Imo and Abia lying next to them are called South East. These things are completely abnormal. But it is good for the agents of division, who for more than 50yrs profited in the division of Eastern people.

When people say 'Niger Delta people', I laugh and want to roll on the floor. What is Niger Delta People? Who are these people? People who live in the bank of the river or those that have oil? Is it the Efik or the Ijaw? The Edo or the Igbo? Is it in places we have people with oil deposit? Will Sokoto join  if crude oil is discovered in the state? Do oil contribute to the identity of a people?

The issue is that people like Elechi Amadi who was contracted to deceive his people and sow the seeds of identity crisis among youths never got time to confess their dealings with the Nigeria Federal government, who took it upon themselves to dismember and destroy the Igbo heritage. Reading through the novel 'Concubine' will tell you that there is no difference between Elechi Amadi and an average Egbema man.

It pains me to see Igbo man deny his identity, but I have resolved that I will always work on my emotions when I encounter one. If Onitsha of all people can fall a victim of this identity crisis, who wouldn't?

When I see Igbo people who detest their brothers because of the state Nigeria carved them into, I pity them. Nigeria has done worse than any deadlier terrorists group out there can ever boast of. Nothing destroys a people more than stealing their identity from them. This is exactly what Nigeria did by removing history from our educational curriculum. Today, people in their 30s and 40s have lived based on lies the Nigeria government planted in them through their dubious media. The result is that we now have a people who embrace their killers and rapists that defiled their mothers during the genocidal war of 1967/70. Before the Biafra genocide, there was a pogrom that took the lives of more than 30,000 Easterners. Why didn't their fathers tell them that it was the Igbo in the present South East  that killed their people in that pogrom? Or don't they know that Efik, Ijaw, Ikwere, Onitsha, and Anioma people were also massacred in that pogrom of 1966.

We that are aware of these lies have a lot of work to do. The educational system in Nigeria has destroyed lots of brains. Pushing these people away won't help, even though they appear very much ignorant and annoying.

That some of them claim they were forced to be Igbo is the very height of it. But we must continue and not relent.

That the five South East states can make a nation is very undoubtable, but that is not whom we are. We are a people even before they started dividing us.

We are all Biafrans; and that we shall remain.

International Conspiracy And The Reason Nigeria Must Be Peacefully Divided

International Conspiracy And The Reason Nigeria Must Be Peacefully Divided

By Elochukwu Nicholas Ohagi
For Family Writers Press International.

This piece doesn't aim to give credence to politics or politicians in Nigeria, but we must say this for us to understand what is going on. Africa is not cursed, rather Africa is under attack by colonial power-brokers in Europe, Asia and even America.

Prior to 2015, Europe and America had already seen the tremendous progress achieved by the administration of the then Nigeria president, Goodluck Jonathan, who assembled professionals and technocrats that  brought Nigeria on a moving track politically and economically. What did Britain led by David Cameron and America under Barack Obama do? They unleashed series of defamatory and sabotaging attacks on Jonathan. He must be dethroned, why should he bring out Nigeria to become a country that won't be needing constant aides and loans? It shouldn't happen. America and Europe needs a poor Africa that will depend on aides; not an Africa that will be politically strong and economically independent. Obama, Cameron and Archbishop of Canterbury all branded Jonathan corrupt and declared a former military dictator, Muhammadu Buhari as an incorruptible messiah that will lift Nigeria to eldorado. They certainly know that they are lying. They just brought up a man that will destroy whatever progress Jonathan made.

Today, it is happening. Nigeria that had its economy growing tremendously under Jonathan has been brought to her knees by the British and American governments choice of a Fulani man.

Why Did They Succeed?

Bringing together people with different culture, political and religious system made it possible for America and Britain to succeed in foisting a monumental disaster upon Nigerians. In Nigeria, an Hausa or Fulani man will always be happy to make Igbo or other Easterners to suffer. That is why the killing of over 3.5million Biafrans remains nothing to them. In fact, they still brag how they will repeat same genocide on Biafrans today. The Yoruba is ready to always play accomplice provided Ndị Igbo are at the receiving end. Britain and other world powers understand this, hence they use it to keep the people trapped in Nigeria and Africa under a poor and unprogressive state. To bring Jonathan down and destroy his legacy, they brought a stark illiterate Fulani and media lying Yoruba people and they sacked Jọnatan. Today, corruption has been elevated, Fulani Herdsmen terrorists and Boko-Haram are aided to kill Biafrans. Economy heartlessly destroyed.

Which Way Out?

The only way out is the cancellation of the amalgamation of 1914. The different people forcefully brought together to form Nigeria by Britain must be allowed to go and build their own nation, where they can unilaterally agree on one thing and pursue it without rancor. It has been a 60 years of internal war in Nigeria after independence; reason Nigeria has sold oil for decades without developing an inch.

I then advice Nigerians to embrace Referendum and allow Biafrans to go their separate way.

Nigeria, A Country Created By Britain To Destroy Itself

By Elochukwu Nicholas Ohagi
For Family Writers Press International.

Nigeria didn't just start spoiling under APC, It started spoiling from the first day Nigeria was created. That is because Nigeria was never meant to progress. Nigeria was created for the interest of the British government alone, the more Nigeria continues to exist, the more the country's self-destruct for the benefit of Britain. That is why Britain brought together people with completely different world view. People who instead of channeling a part to random progress, they keep experiencing persistent chaos. Britain studied the Nigeria people so well, hence they handed the contraption over to the North during the period of independence transition. The northerners had earlier declared that they are not ready for independence three years prior to independence; so tell me how such people could have effectively managed the affairs of the newly independent country.

You must understand that in the 50s and 60s, literacy level in the North was nothing to write home about, yet the British jumped Nnamdi Azikiwe and Obafemi Awolowo who were highly intelligent and know what it takes to lead a mordern society and handed Nigeria over to Abubarka Tafawa Balewa. They wanted the new nation to fail and most importantly depend on them. Britain understands the diverse ideological, cultural and religious rivalry between the North, East and West, so they utilized it perfectly to their advantage. No nation with such bitter rivalry will succeed without breaking into different fragments.

From the inception of Nigeria's independence, the mission of Northern political fundamentalists is to supress the Igbo and not to grow the nation. So the North who know they can't do it alone sees an accomplice in the Yoruba who have settled for the office of the 'most beloved slave' from the hated South.

In this, Britain retains control of their colony through the back door, the North gets the lion-share in a resources they contribute nothing to, while the Yoruba settles for the rest. The East, from where the entire resources comes from remain cheated, marginalized and impoverished. Go to the Eastern riverine areas and you will shed tears over the horrible suffering of the poverty-raged inhabitants. The oil pollution is something that can't be completely cleaned in the next 50 years.

It pains me when I hear people today lament that APC destroyed Nigeria, and it even pains more when PDP members especially the main players in the 16 years of absurd administration and embezzlement start trumpeting against the misrule of their APC twin brother. Who is fooling who? Was it not how APC members prior to 2015 election, kept shouting how PDP destroyed Nigeria.

After the series of destruction of the country by many different military coup including that of Gen Muhammadu Buhari, it was PDP that the country was handed over to. This PDP instead of writing a new people's constitution, accepted the one which the outgoing military government handed over to them. It was actually a military manual through which the military who were majorly led by northern military personnel will use to rule from the background. And indeed they succeeded. It isn't a surprise that since Nigeria returned to democracy, four men have ruled Nigeria and  two were ex-military Generals. In a culmination of 21 years of Nigeria's democracy, the military have 13 years.

For 16years, PDP know that Nigeria's constitution isn't working, yet they protected and defended it. They even wiped out Odi and Zarki Ibiam in the protection of the same 1999 constitution. Non of these PDP players remembered that Nigeria should be restructured and the constitution changed until they were sacked by same PDP members who went rogue and formed what they called APC.

It is always good for us to know where actually the rain started beating us. When APC unleashed all their terror on Nigerians, destroying the little that PDP left behind, PDP came back promising the people heaven on earth as to be voted back into power. They even had to employ the service of a former APC member, to become their party Presidential candidate. Atiku Abubarka who never mentioned RESTRUCTURING during his eight years as Vice President of Nigeria now promised Nigerians restructuring if voted into power.

But APC who has mastered how to use the useless 1999 constitution fortified themselves with it. They first removed the Chief Justice and replaced him with ordinary sharia court judge. They rigged the election, and those they couldn't rig, they removed using supreme court. All was constitutional.

It is not surprising that since 1960 till date, Nigeria has not recorded any progress, yet Britain keeps drilling oil, together with other multinational companies. The politicians keep looting and dumping it in foreign banks.

In everything, the people remain the losers. They are fooled every four years. Come 2022/2023, some APC members will return back to PDP and start fooling the people once again, telling them how they want to remedy the country destroyed by APC. They might succeed in fooling the people and take over power, but it will be the same tales of a failed state.

The British government who amalgamated Nigeria know that as far as Nigeria remains one, they will continue harvesting failure all to their gain.

Sadly, same thing is happening almost all over Africa. European countries are sponsoring bad leaders in Africa. Leaders who will open up Africa for them to loot and destroy.

Have you wondered why Africa is extremely rich, yet inhabits the poorest people in the entire world? It is due to the manipulative nature of the European colonial powers on African countries. study the few good African leaders and see how they were murdered.

Britain knows that dividing Nigeria and allowing Biafra to become an independent nation will not only help the people trapped inside the unworkable contraption, it will also help entire Africa to grow. That is because Biafrans will export their ingenuity across Africa and beyond; thereby stopping Africa from surviving through European and American aides.

Before you start singing APC and PDP come 2023, kindly remember that those politicians in these parties will keep destroying you unless you end Nigeria. Stop the endless vicious cycle and embrace freedom.
