The Hausa Fulani Yoruba And The Sokoto Caliphate Who Rule Nigeria Have Never; by ketsho: 2:47pm On Nov 18, 2009
The Hausa Fulani Yoruba and the Sokoto Caliphate who rule Nigeria have never; repeat
never believed in, valued or practiced democracy. They have always practiced dictatorship in the
form of feudalism of the dark ages. This is why it has been impossible to successfully organize a
transparent democratic election in Nigeria. This is why they cannot organize a census in Nigeria.

This is why there is all the corruption, oppression, robbery, embezzlement, stealing, political
thuggery, arson, kidnappings, killing of political opponents, and disastrous failure of government
to initiate and complete meaningful development projects in Nigeria. Dictatorship as is practiced
in Nigeria is a form of government practiced in the dark ages in Europe. It achieves nothing except
destroy the people on whom it is imposed. Dictatorship almost destroyed Europe.
And
Europeans quickly overthrew and destroyed all their dictators and set up democracies.
Here is how dictatorship works. A thug, an armed robber, a thief, steals or accumulates a
lot of money. He uses the money to recruit a bunch of thugs, thieves, robbers, and criminals. He
gives them military training and pays them money in exchange for loyalty to him and him alone.

Then he uses them to conquer the poor people living in towns and villages near and then far. He
now calls this his territory, colony, or dominion. He makes himself ruler of this territory and
demands total, absolute allegiance and obedience from everyone living in this territory. He will
entertain no questions or queries from anyone about what he is doing. He is the sole controller of
all monies collected as levies, and taxes or realized from sale of goods and resources.

He gives
account to no one about how he spends the money and no one dares question him. He is the sole
owner and controller of everything; money, property including all the land in the territory.
Everyone will be totally dependent on him for everything they need. If you need land to build a
house you beg him to give you a piece of land. If you need land to grow crops you beg him to
give you a piece of land. If your car breaks down you beg him for money to repair your car.

If he
is feeling good on the day you present your case he might give you something. If he is not feeling
good he could tell you to go to hell or tell his thugs to kill you. If he likes the shape of your wife
or daughter he will take them and order his thugs to kill you if you complain. If you plant crops
he will by right get a share of your harvest. If you are a trader he will by right get a share of your
money. You dare not complain. He will never bother whether you like what he is doing or not.

He sees it as his right to take what you have and make it his own. If you challenge him he will
order his thugs to kill you.
He will select people he likes; people who have shown blind loyalty to him and put them
in charge of parts of the territory as administrators. Those people will be responsible to him and
to him only. He will allow them to do anything they like to the people over whom he has put
them in charge. They can oppress the people any way they want; they can persecute the people
as much as they want; they can steal everything the people have; they can even kill the people.

The dictator will not care or ask them any questions so long as they maintain their blind loyalty
to him; do whatever he tells them to do; and bring money back to him. But the dictator will make
sure that those his lieutenants are totally dependent on him for everything and that they never
become strong enough financially or become powerful enough to challenge him.

If anyone appears
to be becoming powerful he immediately arranges for him to be killed. This is why dictatorship
is a system of government based on patronage, corruption, bribery, stealing, fraud, intrigues,
murder, and secrecy.

the Nigerian government shows that it is a dictatorship. Now you know why the
Hausa Fulani Yoruba and the Sokoto Caliphate seized your land and the natural resources in them
and have been selling the oil and natural gas and putting the money in their pockets.

Now you
know why their police and army beat you like goats and cows and kill you whenever they like
without consequences. Now you know why they impose people you did not elect on you as
your leaders and if you complain they kill you. Now you know why they loot your goods and
products and burn your houses down.

Now you know. Now you know. What do they care about
the Igbo, Ijaw, Annang, Efik, Ogoja, Itsekiri, Isoko, Esan and Urhobo? Do they care about the
Ikwerre next door to Port Harcourt? If crude oil pollutes all the rivers and streams in Degema,
Abonnema, Isiokpo, and Bonny do they care? If all the people in Warri, Sapele, Bonny, P.H.
Calabar, Ikom and Obudu die of cholera do they care? If all the people living in Onitsha and
Asaba are swallowed up by the River Niger do they care; if the Nigerian vandals rape all the
women and girls in Biafra do they care? When fire consumed over 900 poor villagers scooping
spilled petrol in Jesse what did the Nigerian Head of State Abdulsalami Abubakar say and do? He
called them thieves and threatened to arrest all those who survived and were taken to the
hospitals.

What did Olusegun Obasanjo do to the people of Odi? What did leper Umaru
Yar’Adua do to the town of Abaala in Aba Province few months ago? Now that you know would
you like to have dictatorship as a form of government in Biafra and a dictator as the head of State
in Biafra? Your answer is a resounding NO! NO!! NO!!!!!!!!
That is why you are working very hard to set up the Biafra Shadow Government; a
transparent democratic government

Our southern leaders do not care about us either. However, its no news that most northerners; almajiri or elite does not give a hoot about easterners even if they are entrusted with the constitutional responsibility of looking out for the welfare of all Nigerians.
I mean, how does one explain a serving federal legislator calling for the annihilation of of the entire Niger Deltans for the sake of oil and nobody is questioning him?
How does one explain the leveling of villages in all the past respective governments?
How does one explain the unpunished annual genocide against Christians and easterners in the north?

The candid question is: Will it be right to shout down on some Nigerians seeking for safety by asking for a separate state?

Forty nin years after the independence, the Igbo have not seen the light; forty years after the war, it is still the same story. The question is: Will the sun ever rise again in the LAND OF THE RISING SUN (BIAFRA) "If tomorrow ever comes, the sun must rise as it did today." [KWENU: Beyond Biafra, Reedbuck, 1997] I have learnt over the years not to weep about yesterday because what happened yesterday was meant to be reaped today, and whatever that happens today shall determine the fate of tomorrow. Our forefathers fought for us and not for themselves. Unfortunately, they failed as it was PREDESTINED. Today we are reaping the consequences. But shall we sit back and watch our children go through this pain? That is where I disagree. We have to stand and correct the wrongs of yesterday now, so that our children shall see the sun rise very bright tomorrow.

Through the Igbo in this last days as the chosen tribe amongst the Jews in Diaspora. Whose manifestations and blessings shall come after their own bondage and suffering as it is happening in Nigeria today, hence our progenitors Shem, Abram, Gad, Eri, Nri… was caused by “CHUKWU” to be stranger in a foreign land to suffer humiliation and intimidations, political victimization; but will be sifted as corn sifted in a sieve when the new Tabernacle of David shall be restored which the Igbo must produce the king. That is even the reason why the Igbo are without a KING today. The KING of the Igbo shall be the champion of ELOHIMCRACY or in other word theocracy to replace imperialism, capitalism, materialism, democracy above all HELENISM.

Nearly 40 years since the declaration of Biafra, people must documenting its story for posterity. Not in any substantial way in any case. I felt compelled to place a copy of the call for submissions .

What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence.
