Reason Why Biafrans Agitate By Obasanjo by ismhab(m): 11:47am On Jul 19, 2017 |
THE HARD TRUTH OF A PATRIOT FMR PRESIDENT OLUSEGUN OBASANJO. 1. Former President OBJ says there is nothing wrong with the present structure. 2. The problem is that those who cannot get power through the ballot box they must get elsewhere or let the country break into pieces that is the real reason for this clamor. Allow APC its mandate and then campaign to unseat it. 3. Follow the constitutional process and amend whatever you want if you are truly democratic. 4. Anything outside the constitutional process is illegal and it is just like military coup. 5. If you want referendum then amend the Constitution to allow for it. 6. No leader can wake up one day and say the integrity of the country is negotiable or representation is based on ethnic nationality or Ekwueme zoning that was why the so-called 2014 conference report can only remain a persuasive document. 7. Politicians who could not contest or field candidates were part of it and now they are claiming it is even better than the Constitution. 7. Yes the military had authority to promulgate the Constitution because they are legitimate. 8. Yes the Nigerian State was established by the colonialists after defeating the Kingdoms and communities so they had legitimate authority. 9. There was nothing like Arewa Republic, Biafra Republic, Niger Delta Republic or Oduduwa Republic these are social constructs that emanated from the colonial experience. 10. None of these entities or thoughts ever existed before the colonial rule yet chauvinists want us to believe they are sacrosanct. They can never be. That is why all patriots like OBJ and others are against these destructive separatist tendencies. No leader elected as President of Nigeria can ever allow any stupid referendum or Sovereign National Conference that was why GEJ convened only a conference. Sovereignty belongs to the Nigerian State, recognised by international law not ethnic nationalities. If you want ethnic nationalities in whatever form you must first violently destroy the Nigerian State. #SayNoRestricturing��� |

Which means that Nigeria is a fraud! The colonialist has gone back home, so why are the people they forced together still being forced to be together? |

In order words the IPOB agitation can when necessary turn into full blown militancy with a view to upturn the status quo and gain legitimacy. OBJ has accepted the fact of history. Empires rise and fall. This is a fact with the Roman empire, the Greek empire, etc. They fall either in peace or militant agitation or uprising. It's up to Nigeria to accommodate the Igbo and have peace. I know that the point of this idiot of a man is that the Igbo is conquered and should accept their condition in Nigeria. But he is a big lair. |

ismhab: Complete rubbish!!..The Nigerian tragedies/problems are not as a failure of good leadership/good governance, but are failures in this order of logic...foundational, structural, systemic/leadership/governance failure. Under foundational failure, impossible ethnic groups were matrix/roped together without a "WE" the people constitution which have led to a complete systemic/leadership/good governance failures. Corruption becomes structural. The extremities of Islamic religion/control of natural resources/strong ethnic affiliations took the center stage and make the overall system dysfunctional. All the above produce extreme bad leadership/leaders like obasongo to defend the tragedies. What obasongo and co defenders of the Nigerian tragedies do not understand is that the Nigerian tragedies are rooted in Lord Lugard experiences/experiments first in Hong Kong(first governor), in Eastern Africa and etc. His objective was to create political/economic order that will last for a thousand years in defense of the empire. What Lord Lugard did not know...is the rise of China to a super power status/information communication technology/globalization, which have started to unravel his master piece. As world population increases putting pressure on natural resources, increase in per capita income, increase in the new middle class both in Asia and elsewhere, the devastation and unintended consequences of climate change and etc......I hope and pray that the Nigerian tragedies(which have already destroy millions and millions of lives and counting with the level of hate unimaginable in this world) do not mistreliously throws up the use of weapons of mass destruction in the African continent. 1 Like 1 Share |
