Are They Waking Up At Last, Or What? - VOBI 11 20 09 by godjb(f): 6:05am On Oct 29, 2015
When we read in Vanguard Newspaper of November 14 2009 a statement credited to the President General of Ohaneze Ndigbo Chief Ralph: “Igbo marginalization can break up Nigeria” we couldn’t help but experience a fleeting moment of satisfaction and even relief. At last, an Igbo leader is stepping up to the plate; at long last an Igbo leader is showing some spine and may be even balls. May be an Igbo leader will stand up and speak truth to corrupt power; may be Igbo leaders will rise from their moral death beds; may be; just may be.
The statement by Chief Ralph is really not such an earth shattering revelation, or even such a big deal especially as everyone knows that Nigeria is already dead and just waiting to be buried, and especially as Chief Ralph is still talking about building the “Nation” called Nigeria, whatever that means. However, the mere fact that Chief Ralph pointed at just a tiny fraction of the horrific bad faith which the Sokoto Caliphate, and the Hausa Fulani Yoruba oligarchy have displayed towards the Igbo in the half a century existence of so called independent Nigeria is worthy of note. That such a tiny and non-threatening statement evoked even the slightest notice by anyone tells us a lot about the depth of despair the Igbo has suffered in Nigeria. Can you imagine what would have happened if the Cardinals and Bishops in all our churches, world-acclaimed international writers and intellectuals...

Get read of some of these and the tribal war will end:

1. Offering admission to those who scored 1% while you deny the same admission to those who scored 70%,
2, Jihardists killing our people over nothing
3. Presidents who go to CNN to divide Nigeria into 95% and 5%.
4. appointments that favour mediocrity rather than merit.
5. people from say Ogun state coming to Anambra to impose who will rule over us
6. things like Killing Enugu airport while giving life to that of Kano
7. Armed Fulani herdsmen invading our lands and leaving behind trails of blood,
8. Many more.


Anyway, Nigeria is on the brink.
The time of Biafra is here.
