An Open Letter To All Agitators Of Biafra by yuncka: 8:34am On Aug 01, 2015
Before you start reading, I want to let you know that I am also from igbo land (Abia precisely). What I write here is based on observation from current happenings and history.
Man in struggle for freedom tend to forget so many factors, as his mind is set on freedom, even lies are justified by him so far as he achieves his freedom through it. Achieving freedom is one thing and enjoying freedom is another thing.
I have watched as the whole Biafra struggle suddenly burst into life under the present administration, cool. I have also been opportune to listen to radio Biafra a couple of times. I was highly impressed by the wealth of History and daring attitude of the said director. But before all you loyalist get carried away, I want you to read through patiently so that you don’t put your right foot in your left shoe.

EXPIRY DATE:
The timing of the Biafra hype is totally hypocritical. For a fact we know that if Jonathan won the election, Biafra wouldn’t be as loud as you hear it today. For the ones who say Nigeria is expired, I ask you….why did you wait for the result of the 2015 election to come in before discovering that Nigeria is expired? You would have started your agitation well enough in 2014 which is exactly hundred years from 1914. It is obvious that the current vision powering Biafra at the moment is the fact that a Hausa/Fulani man is the Head of State.

PERSONAL GRUDGE:
It is obvious from the behaviors and utterances of the Director, that he has a personal grudge against other races. Note I didn’t specify Hausa and Yoruba, because from the way he sounds, he hates so many people. As far as you don’t buy into his ideaology, you are hated….listeners of radio Biafra can attest to his insulting attitude and rage on even people of his tribe. In his recent broadcast, HE WARNED ABA PEOPLE NOT TO LET PASTOR. KUMUYI TO COME TO ABA FOR HIS PROGRAMME, THAT HE IS A YORUBA MAN. SMH! Cursing at innocent coppers for serving in the north, abusing Rochas and other Igbos that have affiliation with Muslim religion.
Sometimes I pity for people hailing him, you people are just being tools in his hands in a bid to satisfy his hateful desires.

BAD LEADERS:
Igbos has been plagued with bad leaders, ranging from the cowardly Ojukwu to the abusive Director. Yes, you might call Ojukwu your Hero, but face it he initiated the Biafran dream, dragged many into it, didn’t fight in it and ran away to another country, then came back to contest for presidency of Nigeria. we have had many other leaders who have looted us dry and done things for their own benefits, people like T.A.Orji, Mbadinuju, NNamani… the deplorable state of the east is a bone of contention to see if when Biafra comes into light, this same set of leaders will mount the podium and continue their looting.
Even in the local level, many Igwe’s have been taking bribe to help propagate bad governance.

GREED:
One of the major ills hunting the igbo society is greed. From the community level to national level, it is very much evident. Out of greed many of our leaders have sold the entire Igbo nation, we can’t lay claim to our own resources because of the greed of the selected few. We breed greed even from our own personal desires to better ourselves. Many communities are agitating for autonomy, while different groups are agitating for their own state, unknown to you, you keep watering down your strength and breeding disunity. Little wonder our kings are very powerless and full of greed…in one state you can get up to 50kings.

DIVISION AND SCRAMBLE FOR POWER:
Like I highlighted in above, greed has resulted in division amongst us. Even as I write this piece, many groups are agitating for their own state (equity, Adada, Aba, etc) many states in the east are having border issues, while so many communities are having disagreement over one piece of land or the other.

DIPLOMACY:
Earlier this year, Biafra was recognised and invited to a UN meeting. That was the perfect opportunity needed to start establishing a diplomatic relationship. Get to meet many Nations and tell them your goal. Form a good alliance, so that even when you get what you want, you will have strong countries in alliance with you.

GOOD STRATEGY FOR WRONG PEOPLE:
Like I said, Diplomacy will be more beneficial than the seed of war being sown by the Director. You take your inspiration from the fact that the boys in the CREEKS did it, and boys from SAMBISA are yet to be found. The words in capital letter are names of places not inhabited by human. They were hard to track in the landscape….but in the case of Biafra, there is a defined territory known as Eastern Nigeria that experienced the heat during the civil war. Unless you want the repeat of the same event, then desist from being an apostle of war. The war lasted 3yrs at that time because we had allied countries helping out, but now that Nigeria has strong Diplomacy with almost all the world power…I see dooms day.

IGBO MAN’S IDEA OF FREEDOM:
Igbo man’s mentality of freedom is not being cramped in a certain area. An average Igbo man loves to explore foreign lands for wealth. Although the Igbo man has not been fairly treated in various region he finds himself, it will be a worst case scenario when we have dampened further our relationship with these region. We become more than targets. We will be at the losing end because we make more investment than other tribes make in our region.

ALLIANCE:
Igbo man hardly forms alliance. We always think we can do it on our own. The reason an Igbo man has not ruled and might not rule Nigeria is because we play politics based on sentiment. Other tribes know this fact prompting them to side-line us in politics.
The Director has also maintained that we have our CREEK brothers backing the Biafran vision, really? Asari is not the leader of Niger Delta, he is an aggrieved militant. AND THE DIRECTOR WHO IS AGAINST MUSLIM AS A RELIGION HAS ALSO QUICKLY FORGOTTEN THAT ASARI IS A MUSLIM, VERY HYPOCRITICAL.

FAKE GOSPEL OF CHRISTIANITY:
He is the business of calling chukwu abiama, pls that’s not the almighty God, that’s a pagan god from the old igbo traditional religion. We are Christians in the east and anyone who doesn’t acknowledge the name Jesus Christ is not a Christian. A man who can even deny a fellow Christian (pastor.Kumuyi) passage to minister in Aba because of his tribe is not a true Christian. The message of Christianity is love for all irrespective of tribe or color.

PAST EXPERIENCES:
I will round up, by reminding us that past experiences are there to place us in a careful zone in future. The Director is plying the old route to freedom. And we all know what happened before. People who are passing through war at the moment are praying that it ends and we are praying to experience it. People in the North leave in fear, many people are homeless, body counts rise per day.
Your currency is Naira, do you think you will get it back when you wage this war?
Like I said earlier, the Biafran Land is the east and it has a defined territory. Before you follow blindly in agitation for war, look around you and imagine the scenes of air raid, the cries, the body counts, mass burial, and continual exodus….ask yourself if it is what you truly want.

Mentioning you're Igbo already makes this letter very suspicious. Last I checked, that's the trademark of Yorubas(I'll get back to you on that)
At least you're now moving from claiming SS to claiming SE, it's a step in the right direction if you ask me. I'm glad you noticed that claiming SS has become boring


Btw who told you radio Biafra (for example) started in 2015? Stop smoking pls

The earlier Yorubas focus more on how to pull away from Odua-Arewa future country, and less on Biafra, the better for them.

Speaking Igbo won't make me believe you cos Igbo is not the only language I speak n write but what will I achieve here by claiming Yoruba for instance?

And if by chance you're Igbo, remember Judas is the only one that came from same village as Jesus Christ.

There are many apps out there to help you do the needful. Yes even if u say where u're from, it's not enough. I can claim anywhere I like but what do I stand to gain by lying about my origin?

I know a Yoruba woman that does better than u in speaking and writing Igbo. She lived in the east for a long time

After meeting people like that, plus my experience, I know that ability to speak a language doesn't mean u're from there
