[s][s][quote author=ThinkSmarter post=104458780]The different between IPOB/ESN and BokoHaram/Bandits/Killerherdsmen.

Disclaimer: I'm neither an IPOB member nor their sympathizer.
But I stand for the sociopolitical emancipation of my people in g[s][/s] civil/diplomatic way, other than war/conflict.
IPOB are secessionists who are agitating for an independent State of Biafra in the old Eastern Nigeria.
IPOB with their militia wing ESN caused upheaval and tension in the South East and Neighbouring South South Region.
They went agog killing some policemen, setting some police stations and some INEC offices on fire.
In their bid to cajole the Nigerian State to bow to their demand.
This made the Nigerian government to converge urgent security meeting that led to the upward review of the Security threat posed by the Secessionists to the integrity of the country.
The subsequent change in security code level by the government led to the neutralization of the uprising.
This robust tackling of the activities of the the ESN exposed the government's game of ostrich in addressing the overall insecurities in the various parts of the country.
The truth is that Nigeria have the capacity to tackle the various internal security threats but are just not willing to tackle the reformed Boko Haram, banditry.
Maybe, the government in power is taking it likely with them probably because they are the president's kinsmen.
Or maybe, the top officers in military hierarchy and the top politicians are jeopardizing the war against the insurgency, taking undue advantage of the insecurities to cash out, as their salaries alone won't be enough for them to acquire properties in Dubai like the politicians are doing.
The military officers want to live large like the senators.
To those outside the East, they thought maybe IPOB/ESN was an over hyped militia group.
No, they are not over hyped .
It's just that the government was committed in their case , cause they felt that IPOB activities are threat to the source of money (oil).
Their overwhelming threat made the Nigerian government to wanting to yield to the demands of the secessionists at a point but restricted Biafra to only the five SouthEast states of Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo states.
And that was when the derogatory remark of "a dot in a circle" came about.
They wanted a Biafra like Swaziland, a country surrounded by South Africa.
And that was when the Igbo Elites rose up to say we are not part of Kanu's Biafra.
Since the Niger Delta minority tribes are showing a body language that they can't be under Igbo dominance.
And the government is also selling their own propaganda that Niger Delta should not succumb to Igbo dominated country.
And that was when the likes of Wike and other Ikwere leaders were conspired to say that Ikwerres are an independent ethnic group with no Igbo ancestry.
Edwin Clark and Co started distancing themselves from the Kanu led Biafra.
The People of AkwaIbom were not left out in expressing their stand on the proposed Biafra.
They said, they are rather going to form their own Ibom Republic instead of being in a country where they will be politically dominated by the larger Igbo ethnic group.
And that was also same time when Asari Documbo, the government enemy was lobbied by the same enemy, the government to help them to neutralize Kanu's influence in the Niger Delta.
In essence, Divide and rule was applied to the old Eastern Nigeria in order to create disunity among the old Eastern Nigeria tribes.
The truth is that if Biafra should be granted referendum in the future.
The New Country can only be restricted to the five SE states as the Nigerian Delta people are not willing to join the Igbos.
Everyone wants to be on his own.
Everyone eye Don open.
Everything is business including humans lives.
It's all part of modern day business/politics.
But in all of the activities of the Unknown gunmen, the masses of the SEast were not harassed by the unknown gun men.
Though some elites, politicians were targeted by the unknown gun men.
Though many politicians, cultists, criminals etc took advantage of the chaos to get back at their enemies, either the police or fellow businessman /politician.
Whereas Boko Haram are Islamic fundamentalists that are mostly of Kanuri ethnic nationality with foreign backing advocating for a Sharia country within the Lake Chad Basin.
Bandits on the other hand are Islamic militia from the Sahel (Niger, Chad, Mali, etc) with some locals that were recruited by politicians to play political games.
But after the game, they realized that Nigeria is rich and is good for business.
They then conspired with the few evil elites from the North who are mostly government officials, village heads to start kidnapping for ransom.
The elites gives them cover and logistics.
In simple terms, Bandits are Criminals hired by politicians to steal from the government since technology and eagle eyes are posing a threat to looting.
Unfortunately, most of the political elites have an Alhaji religious titles.
They send their wards to the best schools in Europe and America to read Engineering, Medicine, Economics and Architecture.
While the common man are sent to Egypt for Arabic and Islamic studies.
Most Northern states have refused to enforce free and compulsory education for their people.
Cuz, they want to keep them perpetually uninformed/gullible and turn them to potential foot soldiers for their political games.
The government didn't see the activities of Bandits and Boko Haram as threats to their interests.
As the activities of the group were restricted to the rural areas and doesn't have the audacity to attack state capitals and strategic towns unlike unknown gun men that had the audacity to attack state capitals, police headquarters and even dared the barracks.
Maybe, to them, bandits are just mere business men that kidnap for ransom,
doesn't pose a threat to the unity and integrity of the country.
We know them, they are our boys.
They will stop when we want them to.
They are only after soft targets (the rural /semi urban areas) where the low class lives.
But the truth of the matter is that the actions of the bandits are really affecting the socioeconomic development of the areas they operates.
The elites are evil and can do anything for money.
Know this truth :There is absolutely no way a group of Foreign Criminals will occupy either in the forests or villages/towns within any of the Nigerian 774 LGAs without the locals knowing about it.
The locals are among the gangs of criminals/businessmen terrorising North Western Nigeria.
This is what you get when you denounce western civilization that makes one to mentally adjust to the sociopolitical developments of the modern world.
Instead of Islamic civilization that makes one to be very conservative and stuck in the medieval era and develop extremism towards people that are liberals.
Nigeria has the capacity to tackle the insecurities in the country.
In all states of Nigeria, there is at least an army barrack, some have it with Naval barrack.
The Commander in Chief is just lenient with the Bandits cause he felt they are his siblings.
We are all hypocrites, both the North and South.
When Jonathan intensified military offensive against BokoHaram prior to 2015 general elections after he was labeled clueless and incompetent, the North started shedding crocodile tears, that Jonathan is killing the North with Christian soldiers and all kind of propaganda.
Same thing played out in the South of recent, when Unknown gun men were killing policemen and soldiers, some people were calling them Saint unknown gun men.
But when the government special forces started killing them, our people started shedding their crocodile tears, they are committing genocide against us....
We all understand the game.
But this game won't allow us to build a Country of our dream for our selves and for our children.
Until, all tribal and religious sentiments stop influencing governance, we will actualise our potential as a country and as a people.
Hear the truth, the Whites, Asians are miles ahead of us in so many development indices.
They are talking about colonising other planets.
They are talking of 5G .
They are talking of artificial intelligence and robotics.
They are talking electric vehicles.
They are talking drive less vehicles.
They are talking green energy and climate change.
French , German, Russian, English, Dutch, etc are all white tribes, they have learnt their very bitter lesson after the two world wars and have learnt to do away with their differences and formed European Union, NATO and UN.
All in their bid to forestall future conflicts and wars.
But, here in Africa, we are still stuck with medieval lifestyle of fighting intertribal wars.
Either it's Fulani against Igbo or Yoruba against Igbo, or Ijaw against Itsekiri or Tiv against Idoma or Bini against Urhobo.
We are still stuck with defending an invisible creator-deity
We are still stuck with denying people's opinions/freedom of speech.
We are still stuck with getting primary needs of clothing, food and shelter.
Black African tribes, need to shun all their differences, unite and rise towards actualising her potential.
In order to take their place in the New World coming.

The whole south, not south east alone

The greatest news of the century

This is more of a reverse psychology than love from the North towards the East.

Restructuring:
The whole south, not south easth alone

It's the 5 south east states that are clamoring to leave.

Meaningless action

If Igbo people leave Nigeria, The economy Of Nigeria will crumble and in no time the Igbos will overtake Nigeria. It’s Fact Be careful what you wish for.

PrinceOfLagos:
Beautiful

Yoruba nation in insight , insha Allah

Lol . Coward.

You still brought Yoruba Nation to the matter.

Why so ashamed of your identity?

South East will never agree to go alone. Kanu once said that federal government beg him to go with 5 states in South east but he refused. Either the story is true or fabricated, it does tell us the mind set of agitators concerning South South oil. Deaf and dumb know that South South interested in Biafra only IPOB members see differently.

Biafra exit not SE
