Charly Boy: Biafra Will Not Change Anything, It Will Only Increase Suffering by itsdumebi(m): 2:31pm On Aug 12, 2017
Below is a letter made available to PoliticsNGR, written by Charlyboy Oputa to Igbos warning them over the Agitation for Biafra. It reads;

Letter To Fellow Biafrans: I know some of my Igbo brothers and sisters are not happy with me simply because I have not used My Brand as CharlyBoy to advocate for the clamour of The Biafran state.

However, like I always say, there is more than one way to achieve a purpose. Though I may disagree with my Igbo brothers and sisters on the choice of rhetorics and methodology, our objectives are to a large extent identical because we all want to bring an end to the marginalisation of the common peoples, by the evil cabals who are holding Nigeria to a ransom and getting away with their obnoxious impunity and criminality.

Those who truly know and have followed me know that I am not a Group soul and I have always dared to follow the path least travelled in the continuous struggle to add value to my environment.

It is indeed laughable that despite being a native chicken, Nwa afo, son of Biafran soil with a full-blown Igbotic blood, I have been persistently labelled a wannabe Yoruba, Hausa, Tiv and an Ijaw man simply because I have consistently maintained that I believe in the unity of Nigeria.

To start with, I go like tell una sey you may not be totally wrong if you call me the man from all tribes in Nigeria. This is because I believe in the oneness of all Nigerian peoples. I believe that we have gotten to a point in our national history where a Yoruba man cannot live in isolation of an Igbo man. Likewise, an Ijaw man cannot live in isolation of a Hausa/Fulani man. All tribes in Nigeria today have become a mat of interwoven fibres that cannot be segregated. There have so far been intertribal marriages, intertribal business ownership, and intertribal partnership; and countless other intertribal collaborations and relationships in Nigeria.

For this reason, my question to those agitating for secession would be that if each tribe decide to secede from Nigeria today, what then would happen? Who would lead the new nations?

Will the people be happy? Will injustice be defeated in the new societies? Will criminality end in leadership positions? Will there be happiness in the new nations? Will the people finally have a country to call their own? – These are important questions we must ask ourselves and provide answers to before we even start to beat the drums of secession.

Having said that, I must state that whereas I am a Biafran at heart, what should engage our minds is not a sectional Biafra but a national Biafra. The fight for nationalists who will drive the discourse and the engagement necessary in answering the Nigeria National Questions must not be bogged down by petty sentiments, tribal colorations, and religious propaganda. The failure of the Igbo nation and all Nigerian tribes and peoples is the fault of influence peddlers and directionless decision makers.

The crux of the Biafran agitation is that my people are tired of a system that has perpetually failed them. My Igbo kinsmen are tired of a system that enriches the rich and impoverishes the poor. My people are tired of a system that glorifies impunity and criminality. My people are tired of decades of oppression and marginalization. However, the deeply rooted disgruntlement in Biafra land is not peculiar to my Igbo brothers and sisters alone; all the common peoples in the 500 tribes in Nigeria are victims of a failed system and persistent oppression. And this is essentially where I disagree with my brother Nnamdi Kanu that though Biafra is right, it should be a national cause and not a sectional one.

Let me be clear: The Brand CharlyBoy is not only a Global brand but also a national brand that should not be reduced to a sectional brand.

The problem in this nation is not the lack of a space where we all can coexist but the lack of men of integrity and progressive nationalists. We lack the right kind of leadership that will fight for the interest of the common people. And if at all there would be an agitation, it should be geared towards sanitizing the currently bastardized Nigerian system. Our agitation for Biafra should be about having the right leaders in positions of power and not power drunken people with an insatiable appetite to plunder and loot.

Therefore, my people, I insist that the suffering of the People from the South East is also the suffering of the people from the other geopolitical zones in Nigeria. And the oppression of the Igbo people is also the oppression of all Nigerian peoples. An injury to one is an injury to all. A Biafra state is not going to change the players of the game, it will only exacerbate the sufferings of the victims of the game.

In conclusion, my people, let us dutifully work ourselves back into reckoning by fighting for Fairness, Justice, and Equality for all Nigerians; Not Ibos Only; Yorubas Only or Hausas Only but all Nigerians.

Areafada CharlyBoy
President of All Frustrated Nigerians.

the cry of marginalization is also experienced by other ethnicity and tribes in Nigeria. what charly boy fails to understand is that despite the marginalisation being experienced by every tribe, only the Igbo's are challenging the evil sufferings imposed on this country by evil politicians. while other tribes prefer suffering and smiling. wallowing in penury but yet does nothing, but when the Igbo's come out to fight this evil instead of the scared tribes to support them they castigate them and support their oppressors. the clamour for Biafra is simply because other tribes are ready to suffer and smile in Nigeria but not Igbo's.

Marginalization and nepotism will be worse in a biafran state especially if there are minorities involved as kanu wants.

Babalegba:
You are very wrong.The igboman is propelled by pure visceral hatred and tribalism. The igbos supported Jonathans regime that raped this country comatose and threw every obstacle in the path of the Fulani man who is trying to right the wrongs. Their behavior has been extremely dishonorable
the Igbos supported Shagari, Obasanjo, Yar adua. was that based on hatred. No reasonable person would vote Buhari a core tribalist, fascist and nepotistic human. thats why he was rejected. Jonathan regime raped this country yet no convinction, all we hear is diezeani stole 5oo million, 1 billion dollar, 50 billion pounds, every day. buhari is trying to right the wrongs, by encouraging fulani terrorist to kill and maim, by nepotistic appointment, by leaving the seat of power for close to 100 days, by directly inflicting hardship on innocent people. oga please tell yourself the truth

Area Fada,

Let me remind you of something:

YOU CANNOT WAKE UP A MAN WHO PRETENDS TO BE ASLEEP.

Other suffering Tribes, but the Igbos are happy suffering and supportive of their Elite and affluent political oppressors.

Your experience at Abuja is highly instructive.

Your brand cannever be localized if you champion the course of Biafra.

My opinion.
