PoliticsRe: Boko Haram Attacks Christian-Majority Communities In Borno & Adamawa States by EMMY76: 11:37pm On Dec 24, 2020
travelwaka:
Sometimes I wonder to what end? To actually think some people are behind this killings and sponsoring this baffles me.

To what gain? What's the gain?

How do they get arms?
Is it that they are well funded than the military?

Who is funding them?
Is there a secret gain that we are not all aware of?
Why do they do what that do?

Statistics claim we have over 300,000 active military personnel. Why can't we just send 5,000 to 10,000 of them to the field to end everything.

This is really painful, why are we playing politics with people's lives. These are human irrespective of whether they are christians or muslims. Is it a crime to live freely in your own country??


It was easier to send armed military personnels to protesting and armless people. You'd think by tomorrow they would send a battalion to the field to flush out these guys. At the end of the day you'd hear they had a closed door meetings and they have set up an investigative panel to look into it. We can do better. It's really frustrating. These are human beings.
They're full filling their religious obligations there's absolutely nothing anyone can do about it.

post=97345151:
SOUTH EAST: IS IT NOT TOO LATE?

I have read the recent transmissions by Senator Bukola Saraki directed at my Igbo tribe. I have deliberately kept mum on this as I had earlier resolved to speak less on Igbos as regards the 2019 Elections and 2023 Presidency having said quite a bit. 

However seeing as some of my brethren have swallowed the cheap bait, I will chip this in just to keep the reality before us, at least for posterity sake. Truth is bitter but it's still the best medicine. 

My people say; 'He who does not remember where the rain started beating him, will not remember where it stopped'. 

REWIND TO 2014. 
A new National Party was being conceived. Political Parties, political players and Regions were being wooed to the new alliance. 

'We' Igbos (read South East) vehemently refused to touch it even with a long pole. We packaged, sold to ourselves and bought the baseless propaganda that it was an Islamic alliance that would birth an "Islamic" and "Hausa" Party. Simply because those our brethren heavily invested in the PDP at the time were afraid of losing their vested selfish interests.
Till today I'm still trying to fathom the basis for that wicked and twisted deceit especially as many of those Igbo elites who sold that dummy have since ported to the same APC.

We failed to even identify with that new Alliance. Hence the Party, APC was birthed without any remarkable input from us or presence. The few amongst us who aligned were called all kinds of names and abused to high heavens by us even when they were proven right afterall.

Thus the few Igbos who were part of it were at best fringe players as they didn't have the required clout to make serious demands and do the necessary political wheeling and dealing required in Politics to strike the hard bargains since politics is all about interests and numbers. They were even suspect, so much so that it was only their personal political sagacity that gave them whatever they got.

That Party went on to win the Presidential Election which in truth, most of us never believed it could or would, because of our half baked permutations and poor understanding of Nigerian politics. But it did. 

Curiously we turned up at the fore front of telling this same Party how it should share it's 'spoils of war'. We became hypocritical moral champions with an over bloated sense of entitlement. Who does that, in all political reality and practicality? But we did, even while vehemently and vociferously still refusing to shift our position, style and rhethoric.

We dug in. Supported every bad thing and person against the Party, the elected President and the Administration while denying any and every good done to and for our Region.

Fast forward to where we are today. Almost four years after the 2015 misadventure, we have stayed put at 2015, refusing to move forward, refusing to shift grounds, refusing to play pragmatic politics, telling ourselves the same lies we cooked and bought in 2015 and some more. 

Now barely 5 months to another election, we have started again saying "APC cannot give Presidency to Igbos in 2023". "Buhari cannot hand over to an Igbo man because Buhari hates Igbos". "APC is deceiving you", bla bla bla.

Of course. We will believe Saraki, who has only but a fanthom dream of becoming President and whose only known record is selfishness but we can't believe Buhari who's already President and who has a record of voluntarily picking two great Igbo sons as running mates in the past? Chukwu aju.

It is interesting and vital to note here that the PDP which many of us still proudly support and adore was in power for 16 solid years and in those years there were 4 Presidential Inaugurations and on none of those was an Igbo man found worthy by the PDP of even Vice Presidency and we are still bold to say it is the APC that has not even finished one and a half tenure that doesn't want to give power to Igbos. Odi nma

NOW; Seriously, let's be sincere. As things stand today politically, why would the APC even hand power to us Igbos in 2023? 
On what grounds? 
On what records?
On what politics?
Is power given to anyone? 
Is it an appeasement or a gift? 

The APC is a political party. The main focus of a political Party is to hold power and keep it to enable it deliver on its agenda. So if the APC reads that the SE does not want the Presidency or does not have the capacity to help them win and keep power, they will stick with the regions that can and work with individuals who are interested. 

Make no mistake, I have always said, I do not blame us Igbos for the decision majority of us took in 2015. It's our right. But continuing to pretend that it was other regions, Buhari or the APC that made us do what we did then or remain where we are today is purely self deceit and I refuse to play that ostrich game. 

As far back as 2014, I and many others made that argument that Igbo Presidency was very feasible in 2023, ONLY under under the APC, ONLY IF we did a couple of things right politically. I personally continued to speak loudly on that even after the 2015 elections until when I realized that we were not ready to play the politics that was required and now I dare say it may be too late. Or is it not? Time will tell.

For now, we can continue to tell ourselves that we cannot hold the Presidency of Nigeria. I heard and read many of our brethren go from PDP to Biafra/seccesion (read IPOB) to Referendum to "Igbos do not need Presidency but Restructuring" etc forgetting that all that didn't lie squarely with us alone. We think other regions are not reading our body language?

I really don't care what Saraki writes or says because they've all come to realize that it's very easy to play us like a flute. So like Saraki, like Fani Kayode, like Fayose, like Atiku, even Jonah Jang of all people, they keep playing us.

I've learnt not to bother myself anymore to avoid unnecessary abuse from nonentities . As some of us have said, it's good governance we want, even if only one village will be producing the Presidents. So be it.

Ka Chineke mezie okwu. 
Igbos never made any mistake in rejecting buhari at the polls in 2015 and 2019 events of the past five years have proven that they are politically correct even those who voted buhari are regretting their decisions today. The same igbos massively voted for yaradua a muslim fulani man in 2007 u should rather blame buhari for presenting himself as an islamic extremist before the presidential elections all his radical speeches he made during his campaigns are all over the social media.
PoliticsRe: Is This What Nnamdi Kanu Is Doing . by EMMY76: 6:21pm On Dec 22, 2020
MyGeneration:
Bakassi was never part of Nigeria, Nigeria lost bakassi a long time ago after western cameroon voted to join cameroon.

That apart the circumstances that allowed sudan to break and Nigeria is not same the entire southern sudan wanted to break they united and fought for it, but only SE is pushing for breakup and the reasons being given if u were to tell me is not reasonable.

If u say fulani killings the verdict they would use to win u in UN or ICC is but fulanis are having herdsmen clashed all over west africa even in the north.

If u say persecution of christians and they say what's your proof and u bring bombings in the north, they will ask u, u want to break the east because they bombed in far away bornu?

If u say islamization they would ask u, show us any igbo man that has been islanized...


Answer these questions for me let's start from here
So what about the fraudulent 1999 military unitary Constitution and the sturbbon refusal of the hausa/fulani north to agree to the restructuring of nigeria is that not enough for any region in southern nigeria to demand for succession?

I personally don't like voilence and shedding of blood but my years I have spent here in nigeria since birth I have observed that the only real language the fulani nigerian state understands very well is superior voilence not grammar or peaceful negotiation I pray God gives this ipob freedom fighters the wisdom to develop a very deadly weopon that will force the hausa/fulanis to a negotiating table on how to either get nigeria restructured or divided peacefully.

mohims:
Hahahaha I laugh in swahili. This is absolutely ridiculous. Na nollywood movie you think say you dey watch? E go shock you. I wish the late Ojukwu was alive to tell you guys the truth. Anyone who witnessed the biafra war would never pray for it again. Ojukwu even brought foreign mercenaries from South Africa, Yugoslavia etc to fight for him but when it became too hot he had to flee and abandon his fight for Biafra. That's a man with a core military training let alone this chicken Nnamdi Kanu you guys call a leader. ESN is already dead on arrival. All it takes to kill it...is operation ugwu eke
No one prays for another biafran/nigeria war but if it eventually becomes inevitable am 1000% very sure that will be the end of nigeria as we know it. That powerful old British alliance because of the huge deposits of oil and gas in the niger delta will no longer be there for the fulani north to depend on once again even all the other non hausa/fulani ethnic groups in nigeria are now very tired of the barbarity and misrule of the fulanis so I wonder where the alliance to fight the igbos is going to come from in this 2020?
