IN ONITSHA FOR A FUNERAL NOT PROTEST MARCH
- Archbishop Obinna
‘’For the sake of those who may have been misled by internet or media reports about Archbishop Obinna’s presence in Onitsha on the 30th May 2016, it has become necessary to give the true story’’.
On Monday the 30th May, Most Rev. Anthony J.V. Obinna, Archbishop of Owerri, left for Onitsha for the funeral of Rev. Sr. Innocentia Ehirim at the Immaculate Heart Convent, Nkpor. He was accompanied by a good number of priests, religious and laity since the late Sister Innocentia had worked for ten years in the Archdiocese of the Owerri, before her later postings.
From Ihiala, signs of unrest began to be seen with unusual road blocks. In any case Archbishop Obinna and his entourage arrived at their destination without much inconvenience. After the Holy Mass and the burial of the Rev. Sister, in the process of returning to Owerri through the Nkpor-Onitsha route through which he and his entourage came, he found that burning tyres had been set up by youths blocking and preventing the normal flow of traffic. The Archbishop was constrained to stop in order to plead for passage for himself and those who accompanied him. On getting past this first blockage he ran into a bigger road-block with more massive burning tyres and a greater crowd of youth.
On sighting the police ahead of him, Archbishop Obinna made his way beyond the milling and shouting youths in order to seek a possible safe-passage. In spite of the armoured vehicle standing there and the police in battle-gear, Archbishop Obinna made his way to the Commanding Officer. After speaking with the officer and being advised to turn back and find another route because of the apparent tension. Archbishop Obinna walked backward only to be besieged by the pro-Biafra shouting youths. From mildly charging that the Catholic Church and CAN should speak out on behalf of the Biafra cause some of the youth descended to abusive and threatening talk in expressing their joblessness, poverty and frustration. Trying to respond calmly to the angry youths, it now turned out to be needless. As he further trekked to get back to his car, those among the youths with camera-phones photographed him in the midst of all those youths. The Archbishop eventually got into his car and found a back-way route to Abetete and on to Nnewi from where he then returned to Owerri.
This is the true story behind the lying and deceptive photographs and stories on the internet and some newspapers falsely claiming that the Archbishop either came from Owerri or Rome to join the protest march of the pro-Biafra youths.

Nairaland modes should do justice to this thread. It is sacrilegious to blackmail a Catholic Archbishop on this forum by error but yet refusing to correct it. Arch-Bishop AJV Obinna as evidently seen and heard on the video was abused without iota of respect by rebels and they tried to compel him into siding secessionists which he rejected.

https://www.nairaland.com/3136207/catholic-priest-joins-ipob-nkpor

Such deceit being projected here is meant to popularise the rebels by deceiving Catholic faithfuls into believing that their revered Archbishop has endorsed IPOB.

Archbishop Obinna reacts

Meantime,the Catholic Archbishop of Owerri
Ecclesiastical Province, His Grace, Most Rev. Dr.
Anthony J. V. Obinna, has reacted angrily at the way
he was linked to the protest march of loyalists of IPOB,
and MASSOB, in Anambra State.

Speaking exclusively to Vanguard in Owerri, yesterday,
Archbishop Obinna said he chose to react “for the sake
of those, who may have been misled by internet or
media reports about my presence in Onitsha, on May
30, 2016.”

The Archbishop explained that he left Owerri for
Anambra State, for the funeral of Rev. Sr. Innocentia
Ehirim at the Immaculate Heart Convent, Nkpor.
"After the Holy Mass and the burial of the Rev. Sister,
and in the process of returning to Owerri through the
same Nkpor-Onitsha route through which we came, we
noticed that burning tyres had been set up by youths
blocking and preventing the normal flow of traffic,”
Obinna recalled,stressing that he was accompanied
on the trip by a good number of priests, religious and
laity, since the late Sr. Innocentia had worked for 10
years in the Archdiocese of Owerri, before her later
postings.

“From Ihiala, signs of unrest began to be seen with
unusual road blocks. In my case, we arrived at our
destination without much inconvenience."

They got bombs planted at various points since 2015 and have been remotely detonating them. I wonder whose advantage these destructions and environmental pollution is. At the end of the day military actions will destroy the polluted villages the more and even further make life difficult for innocent ones.

This is why the North will forever be superior to the South.

Your people are being butchered by the Fulani-controlled Army for protesting. Instead of you to speak out, you are here singing the tunes they told you to sing. The same Army would never try that in the North because they know the tone with which the Northern governors and people will respond.

Hoodlum ko. Hoodlums ni.

As much as I used to dislike Fayose, it's obvious he is the only Southern Governor that is not a coward and a puppet to Buhari's Fulani-led government.

Instead of calling the op out for lying or asking an Igbo to explain what was said he/they choose to believe what they/he want/wants to. That's Nigeria. And these self titled intellectuals still want the country to be one. Ignorance is the worst sickness.
Since the Op is lying can you tell us word for word what transpired? 2ndly is it normal to use your hands to point at an Archbishop of Catholic Church ordering him out of his vehicle and then went ahead to lie on social network that he was part of your secessionist movement?

So this is how some can go to twist information . You have understand igbo first before you can say something about this Bishop . The bishop willingly participated in the celebration of Biafran heroes day . He was asked in igbo language to tell the world the purpose of the rally and people were happy that he showed up unlike Father Mbaka whio is a sell out . I ll use the word mob because people were excited to have him . No body forced him to join . Catholic bishop is highly regarded in Igboland .
He did not join anything. His car was blocked and he was humiliated by a tout after which he was forced to abandon his car and walk.

Go and learn how to speak igbo before trying to act you understand what they said.


1.) The first guy was annoyed because tge bishop was getting ready to go home and he felt his stay was too little. He kept asking him then why did he come if he's going so soon. The bishop replied he came here, did he not and also came to bury their dead.
2.) The last guy he spoke too was addressing how quite the churches are against the struggle. The bishop stated to him that he's giving his support, he asked for more igbo leaders to speak up 3 weeks ago did he not, etc. The guy later thanked him for that and stated that more his kind should be supporting them, not watching more of their people to get slaughter. He stated repeatedly that that was his annoyance with the churches as the government molest everyone and they keep quiet.

Noone in the ENTIRE VIDEO attacked the arch bishop. They kept talking to him about the limited support they get from the Church despite the harassment the government does to the church as well all because they pray for them

Finally
The shouting was not negative. The people kept stating "Let him go. Let him go home. He's done his share" Noone was shouting any negative comment about the guy. Infact the first guy was even verbally attacked by the people around hence he calmed down. They kept telling the guy "you can't talk to him like that. He's a bishop"

If you can't speak a language , keep quiet about what going on. Body language does not translate to actual statement sometimes
You are not the only one that knows Igbo ok. Interpreters will soon give us full details of what transpired. The Archbishop was going for a burial and the miscreants blocked his vehicle forcing him to walk. This wasn't an interview but clear case of intimidation and abuse.

I just watched the video, the revered man of God was not really molested,rather he was interviewed by some of the protesters and asked that the church should be more vocal about the biafran issue. No one would dare molest a Catholic bishop in igboland
So a tout using his hand to push the Bishop's chest is not molestation. The Archbishop was intimidated and subdued into loyalty by the miscreants. The tone of the tout's voice wasn't a friendly one either and at a stage tout asked what he had to give them.
PoliticsArchbishop Obinna Abused By Pro-Biafran Protesters by felalegend(op):
Contrary to news circulating that revered Archbishop AJV Obinna of Owerri Catholic Archdiocese was among the protesters, videos have surfaced suggesting a case of intimidation and abuse of the revered man of God by miscreants. He was nearly mobbed.

For For past 16 years, they did not Save for the rainy day...

For the past 16 years, they did not diversify our Economy..

For the past 16 years, they never implemented any of their yearly ritualistic budgets to stimulate the economy..

Now this is result of their hard work....

In fact , it is still a miracle, that The Present Government is still meeting it's financial Obligations in the face of all these crunches...
What a wasted opportunity. They say "opportunity comes but once" yet we've wasted ours twice with regards to oil boom. I pray oil never ever rise again so that we can achieve our true potentials.
