WHy is this memorial necessary?

We need to let those especially this nepotic and despotic government of Gen. (rtd.) Muhammadu Buhari who thinks they can use the element of brutal, carlous, irresponsible application of force and provocation to subdue our quest for total emancipation to think twice.

Because, though they may break our bones and our might, but they cannot break our spirit and the resolve agitate and advocate for inclusive government and total restructioning of these one-sided system of government that no other tribe in except the Hausa-fulani and the Yoruba tribe that gives them tacit support just for a morsel of the bounty.

Borrowing the words of senator Dino Melaye, "if you tell the truth,you die;you did not tell the truth,you die; I have decided to tell the truth,I die". Thus,it beholds on every South-easterners, to tell the true story of event that culminated to the double genocide metted to the predominantly Christian Igbos in the South-East region of Nigeria.
