How far bro? Have you guys suddenly become the "gworo chewing religious bigots" you talked about here?


I concede. My people have shown that truly sentiments can trump common sense. I consider it shameful and bereft of common sense.

An assault on the whole essence of the Igbo character.

Forget the trolling, deep down, we all are desirous of holistic peace in Nigeria. We wanna eat fish in Abuja, go party in Owerri, holiday in Akwa Ibom or Calabar, do business in Kano or Lagos, etc, without some gun-wielding nutjobs ruining every moment.

May the peace we all crave find us, amen.🙏

I know hundreds will come for my head, as usual, for DARING to raise a voice against this group. They'd tell me to rather write about Benue, herdsman, this and that. They will curse and insult me. To such persons, you will get no response from me. I am used to all that MO of yours already.

And you're right. You need to make yourself useful to your people for once by deploying equal energy to that which you exert in your constant bleating of Igbo this, Igbo that, to highlight the near genocide of your people in the middle belt region to the world.

Has Igbo ever proven to not possess the capacity to solve its problem?. Are Fulani ravaging and riding roughshod on Igbo as they do your long-suffering people in Benue and the length and breadth of the middle belt?. Will they ever dare?.

Why are you a useless hypocrite, and utterly useless to your own people?. Have some self-dignity and make yourself useful to those of your kin and kits who have no voice. You must not waste the talent given to you in pursuit of parochial and self-aggrandizing, mischievously selfish goals. That makes you a traitor to your people. A Sabo!.

Now listen. Nigeria, and precisely Fulani, got us to where we are. They will release Nnamdi Kanu, or Nigeria will continue to pay for the arrogance of impunity. Yes, Igbo will sacrifice as we continue to grind through that very painful but absolutely necessary sacrificial process. But this is one of the many reasons Igbo will never be beholden or enslaved by anyone like they are doing to your people and Yoruba on their own doorstep.

Igbo no be your mate. Now, go make your miserable self useful.

Go and take several seats. Which southwest?. The southwest soon to be divided among Fulani, Igbo and others, or which one?.

The whole affair is distasteful and I hold my people responsible. No matter how they try to blame someone else or the government, the people are the primary creators of these monsters that have sought their lives.

More appalling is how some still justify the actions and killings by these cowards that feed on their kin, and others even in their pain that consider it, a good enough sacrifice... But for what?

A state run by anarchists?

The actualization of Biafra in this state or even the release of MNK will spell more doom for the Igbo people than the Holocaust did for the Jews.

I am hurt and angry. We have become a mockery, a slight for a people. Debased by our sentiments and wicked desires to see others hurt, we have become asinine puppets for masquerading puppeteers.

One of our biggest problem is arrogance. I can tell you that Omenka is very right with this thread. Do you know how hard we are working to develop south east? Do you know the effort we are making to get investors down South East, especially our brothers? But you support a man in Finland to make South East a war zone, for what kwanu? You guys are the worst enemies to ndi Igbo. If yo like speak and write all the English you know in response, I will ignore you.

No, Omenka or whatever he calls himself is not right. He is Igbo baiting.

You need to rein in your emotions and deal with the issues as presented. I have been on Nairaland long enough to know who is who and who does what.

No letter of my submission supported anyone, or anything for that matter, only Igbo self-preservation. And I will not disclose my personal convictions regarding Igbo corporate interests in Nairaland.

But take this away, and that is even saying that we cannot guarantee what side of the divide you stand or who you really are. Igbo will solve her problems. We know they are made from without, but it will be arrested in time to come for the interest of Igbo people.

Omenka has weightier matters affecting his people to wail about...

What exactly can be done by the people of the East to nip this monster in the bud? I'm not seeing much traction from Abuja to stem the tide. I have no idea the reason behind this, but things surely can't continue this way. Ohanaeze and the various youth groups need to step up to the plate, make tangible effort to put an end to all this.

The simple solution is to arrest the fellow in Finland. Get their funding blocked all corner and observe how they will die off. Nobody is supporting them here in the south east. We are tired of them.
Besides, even IPOB have distanced themselves from the Finland so called Autopiloter

It is not in Abuja's place to stem any tide because any action from them will be used for negative propaganda.

If and when the people have suffered enough, by themselves, they will fight off their oppressors. When? I do not know.

See... I will let you know that this runs deep.

I have had conversations with people affected, that still think that the carnage is caused by state actors "Fulani supporter of APC". That IPOB and all its affiliates, the "Umuomas", "Umu Elohims", these gun totting miscreants are innocent.

Some others even believe, as absurdly as it sounds, that the killings is an act of "cleansing the land of saboteurs". That UGM kill only people who are "Sabo".

My people are gone, far lost. Only them can save themselves. When the politically greedy elders reconsider and come to their senses and the people are afflicted with more pain than they can bear from the UGM, ESN, IPOB or any other acronym they have ascribed to themselves, only then will all of these end.

You don't know the Igbos.

Look at it this way... Someone (like the moniker above) is afflicted but when conversations about his affliction is discussed, he agrees that he is afflicted and suffering but would only allow help if the authorities release a terrorist and instigator of mass murder, MNK. What does it say?

Don't it tell you that he hasn't suffered enough? If he truly is tired of the troubles these people (his creation) are wrecking, he would not give a caveat for anyone to help him. Now, this is why I have said that any attempt for Abuja to try to quell this without acceding to their demands will backfire and be used for negative propaganda.

Didn't you see them in Abuja, a few days back? They couldn't call a spade, a spade.

IMO, they haven't suffered enough. Yes, they lament, but they haven't gotten to the elastic limit of their suffering.



Let me give you a little insight

What is happening in the South East is an agitation modelled after the NigerDelta Militant agitation but with the 1966 propaganda playbook of Chief Chukwumerije and Chief Okokon Ndem.

The error of judgement however is that, unlike the ND agitations, the South East has no prized bargaining chip - oil. Not that there are no wells in the SE but there are not enough to hold the country to ransom.

So, it is on this realization that most diehard secessionists would always argue for the unholy marriage of the SE and SS in their agitation to take back their homeland Biafra. They do not mind that these "forced partners" want nothing to do with them, and that of all of the other parts of the country, that they were afflicted the most by these people after the war - but I digress.

Tell me, how does on base his ambitions on an uncorporating partner? How do a seemingly intelligent people not realize quite quickly how mundane the whole idea of chosing to be landlocked in a growing global world sounds. In a world where access to the Sea is a huge geopolitical plus and a strong power wield?

My people are smart but on this one, they have failed like bunch of dunces. They have allowed sentiments, anger and hate to override common sense.

That they do not know that if Nigeria chooses today to grant them statehood, it can choose not to deal with them The whole idea that you can go and Nigeria will be forced to deal with you is beyond absurd.

The soft power play in the last 3 election cycles have given a glimpse of how the Nigerian state will treat the SE in the event of a breakaway and my people seem more to be blinded...

What's wrong with having the quality we claim we can bring to Biafra in South East? What's wrong with accomplishing all of those niceties we believe we can in Biafra under these same political construct?

You see it's either we are driven by blind hate or we don't have it in us. The SE has all it needs to develop and it's not Nigeria that's holding us back.
