NIGERIA; A free fall..

*A Peep Through The Veil*

First of all, I would want to congratulate the malevolent schemers who have succeeded in scheming the Igbo nation out of the country Nigeria.

I am congratulating them because they have succeeded in doing what is virtually impossible in sane climes.

They have succeeded in strangling separation of powers and would in no time shoot the rule of law, point blank in the middle of the eyes.

It is great to know that you completed your mission albeit without much resistance from those who are at risk and should have known better.

It is expedient to note that the final nail was hammered into the casket of Igbo involvement in governance in Nigeria today as the cycle is fully completed.

As the country Nigeria stands today, there is no Igbo man in the Executive ranks, non in the Judiciary, non in the Security and non in the legislature.

Hurray! (This is the reaction of those who are about to commit self destruction)

It has become very obvious to even a blind man that the Igbo is not wanted in the affairs of governance in Nigeria, and for those who have been very watchful as these schemes played out, we are neither surprised nor perturbed.

The time for introspection is NOW!

This is the time for the Igbo nation to go back to their drawing board and get things fixed.

I am sure some people might be thinking that we as a people should have aligned with the wobbling and fumbling government for crumbs falling off their blood stained tables, but please keep that thought to yourself.

The Igbo nation does not condone abomination, and the way the affairs of government has been carried out since 2015 is the most correct definition of abomination.

People have been slaughtered from every part of this country without one successful arrest and prosecution by those who claim to have been put into office to protect the citizens.

Appointments have been made without recourse to common sense and good conscience.

The economy has gone into reverse mode with Nigeria being hailed as the poverty capital of the  world, if not that of the universe.

Unemployment has gone through the roof with jobless citizens still screaming support for those that have practically impaled them.

Investing in Nigeria is now akin to fetching water with a basket.

Unfortunately, in the face of all these humans are not bothered about the impending doom but are unified in the quest to muscle out a people that are not a threat to them, while embracing and entrenching those that have as their main goal the annihilation and annexation of their common patrimony.

What a shame!

As the NEXT LEVEL of impunity, unhindered massacres, unquestioned rape, arson and terror is enthroned, let me tell you for free that it is going to be a tough time, just like Buhari promised all of you who are dancing shoki for the supposed success of their mundane agenda.

As we recoil to ask deep questions of ourselves, let it be known that Nigeria has descended finally into the abyss of tyranny.

If you are still not alive to the current situation in Nigeria, please kindly scream for urgent help.

And for those other regions that would be gloating over the lot of the Igbo nation in the country Nigeria, I am deeply sorry for all of you.

We are proud to be who we are!

We do not stand with evil, and we are ready and willing to bear the consequences of such a noble stand.

When the roll call of those who have separated themselves from the plague shall be made, we shall stand tall and with broad smiles on our faces, tell the  world that, "yes, we stand by our principles."

Finally, let those who make reference to themselves as leaders in Igbo land know today that the time for them to connect with the people is now or never!

KEEP RANTING ABOUT THE SOUTH EAST

"A region that survived bombardment from both UK, Russian and Arab military forces for 3 years, survived Buhari’s disastrous 4 years, will not stop surviving because of political positions.

Let your ignorance not swallow you.

In Nigeria's poverty index, South-East is the lowest with 26% while Buhari’s North West is the highest with 75%, Ahmed Lawan's North East, 72%.

These figures are what should form the core of every political discourse in Nigeria but no, ignorant folks are talking about South-East not getting any position?

My town with no Senator is peaceful. You can sleep with your doors open. Can people in Buhari’s Daura do same? 46 days after a high-ranking Chief and Buhari’s ADC's in-law was kidnapped in Daura, there is no words about him. Can Ahmed Lawan  sleep in his home with his doors open? Can the people in his state?

The Igbo apprentice system has created more billionaires in the last five decades than politics has for the North.

You won't survive more than me.

Like I wrote before,  Isn't insecurity taking over the North despite having all the posts including security chiefs?

Political positions in a dysfunctional system only benefit the few and not the masses.

Keep ranting about the South-East."

No lamentations..No mockery

National Assembly Election and the South East.
There is out there either  needless lamentation for the South East or  mockery because of the elections in the National Assembly yesterday.   The South East does not deserve and absolutely rejects both lamentation and mockery arising from the occupation of offices in the fourth series of the Fourth Republic.
Records in Nigeria show that while occupation of political office by sons of the soil is useful, it is often more symbolic than anything else. If it translated to regional prosperity, Northern Nigeria would by now be the top ranked in Nigeria. We all know that poverty and all the negative indices hold sway in the North despite holding office three times more than any region.
The South East chose with clear eyes its political leaning.  It should live with its choice. Life is a game. You win this round and lose the next. The call on the South East is to focus inwards and build on Its strengths. The call is for citizen engagement with the political and governance process at home to ensure better utilisation of the resources of the region. The call is to build the Human Capital of the region and benchmark against the global best. The call is to achieve poverty rates that are uniformly under 15% max. Ebonyi records poverty rate of 57%, similar to Northern states while the other states in the region  range from 12 to 27%.
Young people in the region should be thinking creativity and innovation. Build on STEM. Build our communities. Pay attention to the centre for your entitlements but build strength internally.
No lamentation. No mockery. The sun shall rise even brighter.

TRIBALISM WORSE THAN RACISM....The Nigerian case

 In just concluded World Tech Festival in Monastir Tunisia 🇹🇳, four Nigerian school boys have clinched the bronze medal. Namely: 
1) Ugwuishi Meshack Ogonna 
2) Chuka- Umeora Onyedika Anthony 
3) Nwachukwu Chukwualuka Daniel
4) Machi Chukwuagozie Dominic. 
They held off stiff and fierce competition from 40 other countries like Canada 🇨🇦, China 🇨🇳, South Korea 🇰🇷, Turkey 🇹🇷, Tunisia 🇹🇳, Bosnia 🇧🇦 Etc. The bronze boys achieved this feat with their device called “Adaptable Alternative Power Supply for Sub-Saharan Africa” I haven’t seen most Nigerians sharing and celebrating these remarkable feat by these kids. I don’t see many Nigerians telling the whole world they’re Igbos and listing their names. But they were busy to share and tell the world the other boys who robbed a store in UAE 🇦🇪, are Igbos. 
When Five girls from Regina Pacies Secondary School Onitsha, Amanbra state, who represented Nigeria and Africa at the World Technovation Challenge in the Silicon Valley in San Francisco, US won the Gold Medal in the contest last year. Majority of Nigerians didn’t share, celebrate or tell us they’re Igbos and listing their names as; 
 1) Promise Nnalue, 
 2) Jessica Osita, 
 3) Nwabuaku Ossai, 
 4)Adaeze Onuigbo 
 5) Vivian Okoye. 
The Golden girls won the Challenge with a mobile application called the FD-Detector which they developed to help tackle the Challenge of fake pharmaceutical products in Nigeria. 
When you tell the world that the five Nigerian UAE armed robbers are of Igbo extraction, also tell them that the five Silicon Valley world Technovation champions are also Igbos. Tell them the four Monastir 2019 African Science and Technology Competition Bronze medalists are also Igbos. Many acclaimed educated, religious, exposed, enlightened and conscious Nigerians are low key tribal bigots. No matter your  hate speech igbos are the best.

IGBO DOMINATION?

Igbos are such a strange people in this world. Those who don’t understand them get many things mixed up about them. The only people apart from their neighbors here in Africa whose culture is similar to theirs and who seem to understand and like them are the Jews because they are the only ones that share similar life style with the Igbos of Africa. Someone might want to ask why am I writing about the Igbo as if I am Igbo myself. No I am not Igbo, I am Ijaw. My ethnic group share borders with Igbos on many fronts and we share a lot in common together in terms of culture and a few words in languages but that’s not what gave me the right to write about them. I studied in a federal university at the heart of Igboland for five years. Most of my friends in school were Igbos and I lived outside school in an Igbo community with local Igbos. Igbos are culturally business people, they survive by buying and selling. They believe that success comes from constant monetary exchange so they live that way and develop a system of training the younger generation from taking over from them through their mastership and apprenticeship system. They are also very passionate people. They put their all into whatever they do. They put all their eggs in one basket until they have success in that quest. Igbos don’t give a little chance to evil to mature and grow into something that cannot be controlled. This is the reason those who planned the first coup and only revolution in Nigeria were mostly Igbos. A single individual Igbo might be very good at telling lies but the Igbo community eschewed lies. The reason individuals tell lies in Igboland is because of their business culture. Most business men are not sincere or else they won’t make much gain that’s why Ijaws rarely do petty business and succeed because we don’t know how to differentiate business life from real life and so we relax too much and feel so reluctant in business but that’s not the Igbo. An Igbo would rather cheat you in business instead of to have losses, his boss that trained him taught him so. Because most Igbo individuals are business people and may sometimes want to bring business life of insincerity into societal life, the Igbo community has more checks on the human excesses in the society than any other society I am aware of. An average Igbo detest insincere life in the society. They can ignore insincerity in business but not in the community because they understand that business is for gain while the society is for life and love for without love life will be lost. An Igbo man is an independent man. They don’t like to take what is not theirs so they work very hard to get their own. The Igbo society hates oppression so if you can prove how an Igbo has oppressed or is oppressing you or a group of people to the Igbo society, that person becomes an enemy of the whole Igbo community. If such person is an Igbo, he will be excommunicated and treated with disdain but if he is not he will be resisted whether those he is oppressing are Igbos or not. Most of these qualities of the Igbo can be found in most other ethnic nations in Biafra but the difference is that none of them have the business culture of the Igbo society. That business culture is what makes the neighbors of the Igbo to find it hard to understand them nor trust them. Igbos are a very focused people, they hate distractions and they don’t tolerate it because they believe time is money. If an average Igbo see you as a distraction he will ignore you no matter how much he loved you and move forward. If you disagree with his ideology he will do everything to kick you out of his way and only come back to listen to what you have to say after he has succeeded. So if you don’t understand him you will think he ignored you because he doesn’t care, no he did because he hates wasting time. This attitude is what has caused the most trouble among the Igbos and their neighbors in Biafra. While Ijaws, Ibibios, Urhobos, Efiks, Ogonis etc want to be heard the Igbo wants results. It’s easier for Ijaws to gather other tribes in Biafra like we have done over time in the struggle for freedom of the coast otherwise called Niger delta struggle. Ijaws don’t care giving the whole year listening to what others have a say on a matter but Igbo is an impatient tribe. This is why I marvel that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu never rushed into arm struggle and is patiently waiting and taking time to convince every single individual in Biafra to understand the Biafran cause. I see in him the speed of the Igbo, the patience of Ijaw and the maturity to sustain a struggle without gain which is only found outside Africa. Most Africans have lazy minds, sorry I must tell the truth. By lazy minds I mean they don’t think hard enough and they don’t have the patience to sustain a good ideology and maintain it over time irrespective of the temptations. Nnamdi Kanu is different. This is why you see most people falling out of the struggle and entertaining new ideologies, some for gain and many can’t just remain in the ideology they believe in. Now back to the Igbo. An Igbo is fulfilled when he is on his own (independence) and you are on your own and everyone is happy. He doesn’t enjoy fighting to keep you in bondage under him except you let him. He can only fight you with all his life when you attempt to deny him his right or try to oppress him. So the fear of Igbo dominating others are not real only except the structures are not well placed. It is normal for every large tribe to dominate in a unitary system where everyone pretend to be one when they’re not. This is why a unitary system won’t work in Biafra but a confederation. Only a confederation will work because like the Igbo all Biafrans love their independence and that’s why Nnamdi Kanu has proposed to have a government system that promotes individual nation independence and collective alliance to form a central government United in military and foreign affairs. This system is the only system that can work in Biafra and the resistance that has caused the strife now and during the Nigeria Biafra war was because BIAFRA was operating a unitary system that made other nations felt like the central government was all about Igbo and they were subjects. They resisted being subjects to their brothers, became loyal to the invaders because they thought if the invaders frees them from their brothers they all can then stand as equals in the supposed Nigerian union not knowing that the invaders see things from a different angle. At the end, the invaders proved that they all were grouped to be conquered. So helping them conquer your strong brother because you felt oppressed was the worse that happened to the coastal Biafran nations. Igbos don’t have a history of oppression because they don’t have it in them to oppress. They believe all men are equal and deserves the right to be on his own. This is why Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has proposed to have one of the best systems in the world, a little advancement of what our forefathers practiced before Britain came. What I expect from other Biafran nations is to insist that Biafra is exactly the way Mazi Nnamdi Kanu envisions it to be because what we all need right now is ourselves. We need the Igbo, Ijaw, Ogoni, Ibibio, Urhobo, Efik, Igede etc to be able to survive and break free from the oppression of Nigeria. Some Igbos and most people from the coast wants Igbo to fight alone and for Igbo territories alone so after they become independent they can then bring others on board. I laugh, I pity my brothers in the coast. If now when Igbo is here it is difficult to break free is it when you have become tinier and more easy to crush that the blood thirsty oppressors will then let you go? If at all the Igbo succeed in saving you it will take them much more than it would take them to free you now because at that time it’s now interfering into other nation’s sovereignty. Same reason it’s not so easy for Israel to just jump in to help BIAFRA now. Certain diplomatic arrangements has to be done. On the other hand, Nigeria wouldn’t want to let go their only source of livelihood, the oil in your land. So the next time you resist BIAFRA think over it again.

THE IGBOS IN NIGERIA....We hate poverty of any sort

👉I really don't understand Nigeria; you hate Igbos so much, but give them their own country so that they can leave you alone. No way.

👉Give them regional autonomy so that they can manage their own resources and develop their own land with those resources. No way.

👉Okay, open seaports and international airports so they can bring in goods and travel for business as they are business inclined. No way.

👉Okay, give them good road networks and power supply so that they can do business within their region. No way.

👉You want them to remain chained to a poverty inclined country that they didn't create, that they didn't chose to belong to, where their resources are stolen and used everywhere but their own region, and expect them to be happy with such arrangement? You go to the point of murdering those who want to ask you for a referendum to democratically chose their fate.

👉Then those Igbos who are happy with this arrangement....what is wrong with you? Am sorry, it's a valid question, what is actually your problem?

👉There is nothing more fundamental than a desire to be free, there is nothing more fundamental than a desire for prosperity. Nigeria gives the Igboman neither....so what reason should any Igboman want to be tied to a country like Nigeria. When he knows that his true country, Biafra, the country that existed before the British came, is there waiting to be actualised?

👉We have to change our thoughts, this cannot go on, we cannot continue this way, and we will not continue this way.

The miscreants, who were armed with dangerous weapons like cutlasses, broken bottles, wood and knives struck at about 9.am at Oluwole, Nnamdi Azikiwe, Tinubu, Bamgbose and Alli Streets.

Some Igbo traders who were just opening their respectful shops for business were beaten with the instruction that all their shops should remain locked.

Armed hoodlums were seen parading the Streets, shouting “Igbo should go back to their States to do business. This is Lagos.”

“We campaign for them to vote for Buhari, but they refused and voted for Atiku. They cannot come here to do business again. They must follow us to vote whoever we ask them to vote for. This is just a sample for them, if they ever vote for PDP again, that will be their end”, the hoodlums threatened,” the hoodlums were heared chorusing.

This threats made the Igbo traders to quickly close their respectful shops and stood nearby to witness what was going to happen to their shops.

Some Yoruba men in the areas were also seen challenging the hoodlums not to cause problem because the Igbos have the right to vote for the candidate of their choice.

Chris Onyekachi, President, Amalgamated Computer Stationery and Allied Trader Association of Nigeria, said he got a call this morning that hoodlums had attacked Igbo traders on Lagos Island because they voted for Atiku Abubakar.

He said the hoodlums locked their shops and destroyed goods worth millions of naira and even beat up some Igbo traders for daring to vote for Atiku.

Onyekachi condemned the act, describing it as lawlessness, saying that it was a breach of their fundamental human rights as they had the right to live anywhere and vote for whom they chose to vote for.

He added that the arrival of the Divisional Police Officer, DPO, in the area saved the day as the police restored nomalcy.

Also, policemen were drafted to the areas on the order of the Area ‘A’ Commander, Bode Ojajuni who was informed about the situation.


As at the time of this report, Police vehicles ere seen patrolling the areas, but the Igbo traders still gathered nearby and refused to open shops for the fear of another attack.
