WHY ALL BIAFRANS MUST ARISE AND SAY NO TO NIGERIAN BOKO HARAM IN BIAFRALAND

It is a well-known saying that whoever wants to separate a fight should start from quarreling. And indeed, we did. Just like in the old adage that says, ” no matter what you do, a child that wants to die will surely die.”

Nigeria as a child, not just wants to, but needs to die and will surely die, no matter what they say or do. Our people use to say that when death plans to kill a dog, it won’t allow it perceive the smell of faeces. This alarm signaling this inevitable death of Nigeria started getting to ‘fever-heat’ when ‘the apostles’ of this so-called change decided to pick Buhari as their Presidential candidate for this ‘amorphous’ contraption called APC. People with some levels of sensibility warned of what may be its possible consequences.
In my own little way, I said: “Change; yes, but not for its sake.” Buhari can never be the messiah. Even as PDP led government was bad, but APC can never be the vessel for the change. In fact the only change Nigerians need is a fundamental change that must attack and structurally redesign the very faulty foundation that is holding this over-painted, over-glorified misnomer called Nigeria.
One funny thing about her is that out of over 170 million population, people always chosen to lead this country are always people like this.
Is Nigeria not capable of producing leaders like Gorbachev of USSR who saw the ‘foolishness’ of holding over 20 different nations together and went ahead to peacefully dis-member it? The other one said he abandoned ship to prevent blood-shed, forgetting the he shed so much blood within the last 6 weeks preceding the last election in attempt to make sure the election was held throughout Nigeria. He forgot that though one will run but he cannot run away from his shadow. A leader that Providence offered an opportunity to save this country from impending calamity and chaos, mis-used the good-will of nature and ‘chickened’ out of the stage claiming he did that to save Nigeria from disintegrating. What a shame. Of what gain is Nigeria with an ever-threatening fear of violence?
Is it not better to have a peaceful multi-states solution than this charade? Is it not wiser to have peaceful people living peacefully side-by-side than having ever-suspicious people in one house? Are there no sane people in Nigeria?
I was reading the insanity called reaction of some people claiming to represent APC in Anambra state denouncing what they called ‘Government sponsored demonstration’ against this madness called relocation of Boko Haram suspects into the state, and I weep for IGBO man? Can a group of people be so daft? Is this all politics?
The other day Senator Ngige was justifying the deportation of Nigerian citizens from one section of the country to another because of their ethnicity. Today from the same group comes up defense for another ‘brain-wave’ called relocation, but I call it RE-DISTRIBUTUON of Boko Haram. Its unfortunate that sensibility has taken flight from some of us. My questions are: if these hardened religious fanatics-turned killers break jail from Ontisha prison, will they board the next available buses and go back to Maiduguri or will they lay hands on any available materials and start producing and deploying Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) in and around Onitsha? If you are one of them what option will you choose? What about any planned rescue mission? Where will the attack be launched? In all these who will suffer the fall-out? Please why won’t London keep their fools at home? Why should Buhari even conjecture re-distributing this Northern-brewed ‘leprosy’ to a peaceful region? On the other hand, why should even any sane IGBO man rise up in defense of that project?
I am not entirely surprise because worse things like that have happened to Igbo before. We know how the Biafra war was won and lost. We know how many of us today that are suffering for the freedom of our people. We know how many that are out-rightly working against us. We know how many that are overtly or covertly victimizing some of us Biafran agitators through various forms of denials, impositions, physical attacks and bodily harms. All in the name of preventing Biafra from materializing. We know all these, but we take solace that the God who created Cocoa-nut will definitely provide it with water to drink.
My humble submission to this planned RE-DISTRIBUTION and DEPLOYMENT of Boko Haram to Biafra land is that this is an ill-wind that will blow no one any good. The only beneficiaries will be those waging this on-ending war against Biafra.
Finally, let it be made clear to all people in this region that what is coming is not only the problem for traders in Anambra state. All civil servants, artisans,etc. must join hands to resist this package from Buhari. Let me also remind all people of Biafra, including Deltans, Rivers, Bayelsa, Akwa-Ibom, Benue, Cross-Rivers and all other IGBO states that all of them are targets. Whatever affects the nose, definitely will get round to every facial organs. Please don’t sit on the fence, for the vampires will soon be here. This war must be fought by all. All for one, one for all! By this, we shall survive.
