WHY THE TWELVE STATES WERE CREATED IN 1967 . 27TH MAY

Lt Col Ojukwu  & Lt Col Gowon 

 EASTERN REGION CONSULTATIVE ASSEMBLY 27th MAY 1967.

We, the chiefs, elders, and representatives of Eastern Nigeria on this day' 27th may 1967 now wish to make the following declarations.
We hereby mandate the governor of the Eastern region Col. Emeka "Odumegwu Ojukwu" to' in no distance time' declare Eastern Nigeria an independent sovereign state with the name/title REPUBLIC OF BIAFRA.
On that same day' Col Yakubu Gowon hurriedly invoked decree( dividing the four regions into 12 states.
You would recall that initially the 12 states Gowon created had no governors' it was on the 28th of May 1967 (24hrs later) that Governors were appointed to govern the various states, making it very obvious that it was clearly a plot to divide and rule the people of the East region.

The sole aim of state creation was to dispossess the Igbo of significant territories' and cause them to be landlocked.
How did Gowon got to know that the Eastern region had finally agreed to declare secession? (BIAFRA)
The traitors from the Eastern region are the reason why the Sultan of Sokoto has 23 oil blocks today while Anyanabos from the region have none.

NDIGBO; A BRAIN RESET NEEDED

Ndigbo, unu abọọla chi. Djaamalụwooo! Ihe na-eme anyị si anyị n'aka.  Ndígbo, we need a BRAIN RESET, so as to rearrange our priorities.Ndigbo, we keep majoring in minor things like a student who dwells on EXTRACURRICULARS and overlooks his studies. 

When IPOB was birthed by the following Igbo greats; Ozobu, Ikedife and Achuzia,  they had a well thought out vision with various components; immediate, short term and long term. However, Ndigbo wanted it NOW! NOW!! NOW!!! and preferred the 'Nzogbu!Nzogbu!!' message of some younger elements, who believed these iconic elderstatesmen were too slow. Using the instrumentality of the radio, these men were demonized and forced out of the way. They were harried and called terrible names and Ndigbo cheered in bloody ecstasy like Romans watching gladiators devouring each other at an amphitheatre.Just the other day, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu made a policy statement,"IPOB IS NOT AVERSE TO GENUINE RESTRUCTURING"

"THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR INSECURITY IN THE SOUTH EAST ARE THOSE WHO STOPPED THE PLANNED TRUCE BETWEEN IPOB & THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IN 2017". These statements shows that Kanu wants to be released and his release is at hand.

With these statements that are factual, a Spanish phrase easily comes to mind, "Hasta la vista!'. Until the circle comes round. Ndígbo, certainly, the circle has come round 360⁰!

Instead of discussing inanities like presentation of a "special mysterious drink box" to Omekannaya, we should be bold enough to look the facts in the face by calling a strategic meeting(s) to discuss Kanu's factual assertions. 

We can't keep blaming others all the time; let's tell ourselves some home truths.

After 7 years, occasioned by so much blood shed in the South East, by both Igbos and non-Igbos, it's not too late to wake up and turn back to 2017. It's not time to apportion blames; else all parties involved have their blames, to varying extents. 

Ndigbo, as a nation, it is time to cry to the spirits of Ozobu, Ikedife and Achuzia for forgiveness for 'enjoying the sport' while they were being vilified on radio.

Ndigbo, taa bụ gboo; o si taa dị mma, ọ dịrị gawa
