My take on IPOB and BOYCOTT OF ELECTION..

Why Nnamdi Kanu should call off the Boycott




While it's the right of individual, group ,Tribe ,race to choose how to exercise their rights and privileges

It's also good to apply such rights in a way that it Will be beneficiary to themselves and their reasons for exercising such rights


I have always been an adovate of self expressions, a Democrat and lover of freedom of speech and a true Democrat

I love when people express their grievances using all legal means as long as their messages will get through

I equally stood by the IPOB in their agitation for true federalism , freedom from oppressors and a new nation

I was also a strong critics of this present gov't of buhari when it tagged IPOB as terrorist group

I made it clear that such tags wont stand
I proclaimed it dead on arrival


I stood firmly with their leader NK while he was unjustly detained and denied justice

I sounded a warning to this govt that their continous treatment of Nnamdi kanu will make him an hero


I was proved right thereafter

I equally condemned the invasion of Kanu home town by the military

It was obvious the govt was fighting a lost battle


If same gov't was soft on fulani herdsmen despite their killings and couldn't see their activisies as terrorism, then it has no justification to do so for the IPOB members who seems to have global acceptance and recognition


While I supported the IPOB and its leaders and some of their agitations, that didn't stop me when I condemned Nnamdi Kanu reappearance in Israel while he made a national broadcast condemning the lost of his DOG during the raid of his house before he escaped


I was filled with raged and felt his act was inhuman

I wrote an article which is circulated online about his act and condemned it so strongly


I made it clear that he never acted like a leader



A lot of my IGBO friends agreed with me and saw reasons in my opinion


Just some days ago.. Nigerians woke up to the news about an order that my good brothers and sisters from the east especially the good loving people of IPOB should boycott this coming election


At first, I took it as some electioneering gimmicks

Later when I saw some IPOB members rallying the state of anambra calling for boycott, i felt this was wrongly advised


While I am an advocate of people obeying their leaders , i think leaders should equally feel the impulse of their followers and give directives that will be beneficiaries


This call for boycott is completely ill advised

It won't do the igbo race a good deal

You can't sit at home to make a statement especially when the election is all about what you have been agitating for


We've heard of marginalization and calls for restructuring

If a political party decided to consider some of your agitation, the best to do is to order your members to support such party while you use your numerical strength to negotiate a better deal for your people

IPOB is more of a pressure group now
That doesn't mean they should become a political group. (It's a choice)

We've seen so many pressure group using its peer influence to change govt policy

This is what I am expecting from NNAMDI Kanu and his group



At this juncture

I urge Nnamdi kanu to retract his calls for boycott and urge his people to go out enmass and follow the party that they feel has the interest of their people at heart...


Boycotting a general election at this decisive time is not a good idea ..

It has been established that the IPOB group is a big influential group and its leaders commands great respect from them


They should seize this privilege to make a statement

Use their numerical strength to right the wrongs of the past and make their members stakeholders in this nation

The contributions of the IGBO people to Nigeria economy is too great for them to play second fiddle



Without much ado, I urge all my brothers and sisters in the eastern states and accross Nigeria to come out enmass and cast their votes to the party that seems to have put them into consideration



The IPOB as a group have come to stay

They are part of a better Nigeria and together we shall make Nigeria work again



I shall be tagging this post to all IPOB and biafra agitators now hoping we get a change of order before the date of election which is just one day now
