You Are Wasting Your Time, Charly Boy Tells IPOB, Biafran Agitators by Jinali(m): 11:43am On Jul 25, 2017
Musician and Activist, Charly boy Oputa has admonished people of the
South-East to abandon the struggle for Biafra. He said it was a waste of
time.

Speaking with Sun, the social rights activists advised Igbos to devote
their time to other productive ventures instead of agitating for Biafra.
He said, “Unfortunately, the dreams of nationhood is lost on the altar of
deception, and my Igbo brothers must be circumspect on the fact and
history, and not be hoodwinked into some insane propaganda that will only
lead to more wahala.

“So, instead of Biafra, we should channel our energies and abilities
towards developing the South-east to become the economic hub of Nigeria.
Igbo nation and my people are great but for us to move forward we must
kill our individualistic tendencies and come together to do great things.

“The fall of Biafra after the genocide, starvation, and immense suffering
of my people should teach us something. I believe the failure of the Igbo
nation is the fault of the people, her so-called elites and
decision-makers.

“Why have we not poured our energy, capacity and ability into making the
South-east the Dubai of the nation as well as the engine room of the
Nigerian economy? Who would be our leaders when the South-east is infested
with political power-grabbers, 419ers, mindless criminals and looters of
our commonwealth and resources? Need I mention names?

“Our problem is the lack of men of integrity and a progressive mindset. We
lack the right kind of leadership that will fight for the interest of the
people. Let it be clear to all that the sufferings and poverty of the
people of the South-east are also the sufferings and poverty of the
peoples of the other geopolitical zones in Nigeria, including my northern
brothers.

“Even the nascent anti-corruption fight in the country has seen all tribe
accordingly represented. It is therefore retrospectively insane to begin
to think that a people with a problem would suddenly be relieved when they
are attached with a tag#BIAFRA; Abegi.

“Therefore, I insist that our mumu don do because the failure of
leadership is evident in our agitator fairness, justice and equality for
every Nigerian not just for every Igbo man. And so the mind of the typical
Igbo leader needs a revolution so that it can be realigned for the
interest of the people rather than the interest of a few.”
