Just look at the audacity. Walk into a church service and start talking thrash. Why can't this people just face their religion and leave others be? Thought Nigeria had the right to freedom of religion enshrined in the constitution. The hell are these people trying to convert people by force? This is becoming unbearable. They are really pushing it. |

The Indigenous People of Biafra has said that the agitation Biafra is spiritual. The group also said ‘Biafra nation’ is known as the land of the rising sun founded by Chukwu Okike Abiama (God). In a fresh statement signed by Ifeanyichukwu Ononye, the coordinator of IPOB in Umeri, Biafra was envisioned from the same spiritual principle which gave birth to Israel. “These spiritual conformities were revealed to Prophet Nnamdi Kanu by ChukwuOkike (God the Creator) after several encounter and dealings with God. Prophet Nnamdi Kanu was judged faithful to be sent for the liberation of Biafra and Africa at large by God,” Ononye said. He also added that: “Prophet Nnamdi Kanu, through IPOB as the leader of the Indigenous people of Biafra in truth and honesty, has been ordained spiritually and physically by God and Biafrans in general to lead Biafrans and Biafra, the God’s nation on earth, out of the colonial masters’ slavery which is human injustice to his fellow human.” Ononye said the divine spiritual law is in accord with the United Nations declaration on human and peoples right, 2007. Condemning the killing in Southern Kaduna, Ononye said the Nigerian government has no respect for human life. “Thank God that the spirit of Biafra has risen to destroy the Buhari led government and his Islamic agenda against Biafra. Buhari should know that ideology can never be killed, as Biafra is an ideology that gave birth to so many Nnamdi Kanus. There is no going back, no retreat no surrender because Biafra and IPOB is beyond Nnamdi Kanu. To restore Biafran nation is a task that must be done spiritually and physically. To dismantle the Lord Lugard amalgamation of 1914 is a task that must be accomplished," he said. Below are 6 things Ononye listed that indicates Biafra is spiritual: 1. Word from ancient Igbo Hebrew of Biafra with the authority of Ovo (ofo) Igbo Our son, the prophet of our time, Nnamdi Kanu and others being held in various Nigerian prisons must be released unconditionally. Let my people go to our promised land, Biafra (The Land of the rising sun), the land of equity, where there is no segregation, where people learn and develop like all other developed nations, where science is the foundation with the fear of God. 2. The Lord’s command to Moses and Aaron The Lord spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt, ‘I am the Lord. Tell the King of Egypt everything I tell you. The Lord says ‘I’m going to make you like God to the king and your brother Aaron will speak to him as your prophet’. – Ex. 6:28.So Moses and Aaron went to the king and did as the Lord commanded, Aaron threw his stick down as the Lord commanded and it turned to snake. Then, the king called his wise men and magicians and by their magic they did the same thing. They threw down their sticks and their sticks turned into snakes. But Aaron’s snake swallowed theirs. The king however, remained stubborn just as the Lord Has said that the king will not listen to Moses and Aaron. This is how Buhari’s led government has adamantly refused to listen to the call for the release Nnamdi Kanu and let Biafrans go. - Ex. 7:10-13. 3. Disasters strike Egypt Blood, fishes in their rivers and lakes stink. Exodus. 7:14-25. Then, frogs in the rivers, lakes, land and the houses, with the bodies of the king and his nobles full with frogs.- Ex. 8:1-15. Death of animals, the whole animal in Egypt except animals of Hebrews died. Ex. 9:1-7.Locusts ate everything that hails did not destroy, the trees that left undestroyed, the houses of Egyptians, the king and his nobles. Exodus 10:1-20. 4. Darkness The Egyptians could not see each other. Exodus 10:21-29. 5. Passover Death of the first born; all first born of Egyptians died. Exodus 12:1-26. 6. Igbos are Hebo-Hebrews residing in Nigeria "Our genealogy is from two Hebrew origins. The Eri clan of Gad’s tribe and the Levi tribe. - Genesis 46-16 and 46-11. Our ancestral father Dabaw, a Jewish name or Dabawu as pronounced here in Igbo Land is from Levi tribe. God said they will not have a place of their own, as he has chosen them as His first born. Shared into the remaining eleven tribe, only the things offered in the sanctuary, offerings and other sacrifices of God, are their inheritance for they have the privilege of being His priests and Levites. Our ancestral father Dabaw was a priest from Levi tribe shared into Eri clan of Gad’s tribe and was their leader when the Midianites, Amalekites and the Desart tribes constantly raided them before they left their habitation and moved towards Egypt to Ethiopia to eastern Sudan and lived in different places and cultures before they got to this part of the world and settled in a place they named after where they left from in Israel called Eri Clan of Gad’s tribe, Eri, Umueri ( children of Eri) in Anambra River valley as the first habitation of the Igbos. This linage of Dabaw is the only people in Igbo Land that sacrifices when abominations are committed, or when one hangs himself, they are the people to loose and bring him or her down. If they are not found, their daughters and/ or sons will represent them and those things God said in the scripture as theirs will be given to them as their inheritance, sacrifices to God." https://www.naij.com/1084805-6-biafra-spiritual-ipob.html

The people from IGWEOCHA know who they are and the tribe they come from, despite the devious attempts at confusing them by lying to them about their identities and changing their community names, eg from Umuokpara to Rumuokpara, from Umuibekwe to Rumuibekwe. This is a waste of time. The people on this thread crying for nothing, are doing just that ... crying for nothing. |

AND so we see off 2016, and welcome 2017. It is time for resolutions, and if you are the reading type, here are five African novels worth having in your bucket list: There is a surfeit of book prizes. Big ones, small ones, ones that award experimental fiction, others that concentrate on female authors, or young authors, or authors from Ireland or Latin America. African literature is blossoming, and its prize culture is flourishing alongside. The Caine Prize is well-established, and the last few years have seen the establishment of the Mabati-Cornell Kiswahili Prize for work in African languages, the Etisalat Prize for first time authors, and the South African Literary Awards. None of these are recognised on a global level, and so people following this growing trend were excited when the 2014 (and also 2016’s) Nobel Prize for Literature re-ignited speculation that the Kenyan novelist Ngugi wa Thiong’o would receive the award. His fans reasoned that the death of Chinua Achebe might focus the minds of the Swedish Academy on their pioneering and accomplished, but now ageing, generation of African writers. But it was not to be. So to partly address this yawning oversight, here’s a list of five of the greatest African novels: 1) Chinua Achebe,Things Fall Apart(1958) Things Fall Apartcomprehensively imagines how the Nigerian Igbo community functioned prior to colonialism. The divisions in this community accompany the tragic fall of the hero, Okonkwo, whose heroic but rash stand against colonialism ends in a lonely suicide. Philosophy of balance Achebe’s wisdom is sufficient to move readers beyond recriminations or historical blame, since the Igbo community adapts to accommodate Christianity and new forms of colonial governance. Just as the novel’s title quotes Yeats’ poem The Second Coming, Achebe’s African philosophy of balance in all things works towards a millennial partnership with Western modernity. 2) Ngugi wa Thiong’o,Petals of Blood(1977) This is the great novel of African socialism. Petals of Blood reaches beyond its native Kenya to embrace the wider black histories of the Caribbean and the US. Drawing together four village outcasts – a teacher, an ex-Mau Mau soldier, a student teacher and a barmaid – the novel intertwines the characters’ memories and life-experiences to construct a shared communal past. Ngugi accumulates a deep communal history of colonial, multi-national capitalist, and post-Independence theft. Charting the development and decline of a single village from Edenic pastoral to apocalyptic disorder, Petals of Blood likens the endlessly regenerating African socialist struggle to the Biblical resurrection. 3) Ayi Kwei Armah,The Beautyful Ones are Not Yet Born(1968) Armah’s novel reflects on the existential predicament of one honest man, a lone moral beacon in the corrupt last days of the Ghana’s Nkrumah regime. Amid the greed of all who chase the “gleam” of possessions and wealth, Armah’s unnamed man endures slights from his political friends and chastisement from his wife. When the Nkrumah government eventually falls, the man becomes the ironic saviour of those who have attempted to corrupt him. The man’s moral purposes become vindicated for a moment and they anticipate a future in which the “Beautyful Ones” will one day be born. 4) Tsitsi Dangarembga,Nervous Conditions(1988) A young Rhodesian girl, Tambu, dreams of going to school in a family that favours her brother. Breaking with her female destiny to work in the fields and bear children, Tambu realises her ambition of attending her uncle’s mission school. But all is not well. Tambu’s cousin, Nyasha, is aware of the trap of a colonial education, which empowers individuals at the cost of their belonging to family and community. As Tambu’s dream materialises, Nervous Conditionscharts Nyasha’s increasingly self-destructive eating disorder in a futile rebellion against patriarchy and history. 5) Bessie Head, Maru (1977) A powerful love story written during Head’s exile from Apartheid South Africa. Margaret Cadmore is a young Masarwa (Bushman) woman adopted and educated by a British namesake. Margaret’s identity breaks the usual categories in the Botswanan village of Dilepe, where her people are slaves. Unknowingly, she inspires a deadly love-rivalry between two powerful men, Maru and his best friend Moleka. Maru defeats Moleka and kidnaps Margaret through the wiles of witchcraft and suggestion. Witchcraft and suggestion His marriage to Margaret has the effect of freeing her people from slavery. However, in an unconscious room in her mind, Margaret continues to dream of Moleka. These novels contain stories that Africans themselves want to tell, stories that imagine a world exceeding all expectation. Their world, it is true, contains its elements of suffering, but it also offers the surprises of triumph, community, magic, justice, philosophy, wisdom, humour and the habits of African dailiness. In celebration of African literature, readers can judge for themselves which of these great novels merit plaudits and accolades.– The Conversation. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/01/hello-2017-five-greatest-old-african-novels-read-die/ |

Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), says he is a freedom fighter and not a coupist. Speaking before Binta Nyako, justice of the federal high court, Abuja, on Thursday, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, counsel to Kanu, said his client committed no crime by advocating self-determination for the Igbo. He said the Biafra agitation predated the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari, and that it was laughable that Kanu was accused of treason when all he did was ask for an independent state for the Igbo. He, therefore, urged the court to quash the charges against his client. “The Biafra agitation predates this present administration. The fact that the Honourable Justice Ademola decided that there was no incriminating evidence against the first defendants, he ordered his release but this was blatantly refused,” Ejiofor said. “He’s a freedom fighter unlike people who overthrew a legitimate government in 1983. The court has no option but to discharge the charges. The court should trash the charges.” But Shuaibu Labaran, counsel to the federal government and the prosecution, urged the court to dismiss the application of the defence. He said Kanu’s application to quash the charges against him lacked substance. “We submit that the application has no substance, and should be discountenanced,” he said. “We urge your lordship to refuse the application.” https://www.thecable.ng/kanu-im-a-freedom-fighter-unlike-buhari-who-overthrew-a-legitimate-govt-in-1983?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C4557884119

Hundreds of Igbo youths, Thursday, demanded a public apology from the Nigerian Police over the raid on Abuja home of former first lady, Dame Patience Jonathan. The Police authorities had declared that the residence was raided following a tip-off that money was stashed in the place. However, the youths who stormed Enugu metropolis after submitting a letter at the Enugu State Police Command said Mrs. Jonathan deserved public apology since nothing was found in her home. Spokesman of the group, Comrade Nwachukwu Kachukwu David, who addressed journalists called on the Federal Government to face various challenges facing the nation instead of engaging in unnecessary witch-hunt. He declared that: “power supply has gone from bad to worse; many homes could not buy rice for Christmas; economic policies have crippled businesses but instead of finding solutions, Buhari’s government is chasing after innocent citizens.” Nwachukwu further stated that: “The entire Igbo Youths stand here today to unequivocally condemn the ceaseless harassment of our daughter, former first Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan. “The latest of this onslaught is the raid on her Abuja house by operatives from the Force Headquarters. This is coming at a time she is still under a vicious attack by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC. “It is even more curious considering the claims by the Police authorities that the raid was carried out over spurious tip-off that huge cash was being kept in the house. “However, after the embarrassing invasion, the police operatives came out with nothing. This is a serious justification to our stand all these while that the attack on Dame Jonathan is politically motivated. Where then is the so-called cash stashed in the house? Who gave the said tip-off? What do they stand to gain by continuously maligning the former first lady? “We are appalled that having served this country with their utmost capacity and having conceded defeat even when they were being urged on, the former first lady is facing this unwarranted persecution. “It is quite clear that all agents of government have been unleashed on them for no just cause- only with the sole aim of humiliating and bringing Jonathan and his family to public ridicule. “Now that they carried out this action and it ended as a wild goose chase, how would the Police compensate her for this national embarrassment?” The youths demanded that “the Police should tender unreserved apology to the former first Nigerian family. We also demand that henceforth they should be treated with dignity and accorded the respect they deserve. “We equally re-echo our demand again that all her accounts, which were hitherto freezed by the EFCC, should be un-frozen. Jonathan and his family should not be cowed down merely because they chose to toe the path of peace and honour for the unity of Nigeria. “May we also state here that other persons have served this country in the same capacity and till date nobody has harassed them. We say time has come for and end to this virulent attack. This is the only way to convince us that Nigeria is indeed one and that it is not a country where some persons are sacrificial lambs. Enough is enough!''. http://www.dailypost.ng/2017/01/12/police-raid-igbo-youths-stage-protest-demand-public-apology-patience-jonathan/ |
- Prophet Anthony Nwoko says Igbos cannot continue to stay in Nigeria - The fiery religious ;leader claimed other Nigerians hate Igbo people - He says Biafra will be achieved soon and Biafra detainees will be released Prophet Anthony Nwoko has claimed that the reason Igbos face a lot of tribulation in Nigeria is due to their God-given talent claiming that others are jealous of Igbos. Vanguard reports that the popular religious leader made this comment as part of his New Year prophetic message on Tuesday, January 10. He said that light and darkness cannot work together which is why Igbos will have to go away from Nigeria. “There is hatred and jealousy for Ndigbo because of their God given talent.” He called on Igbos to develop Igboland“as the South-West and North know that you have a great mission and role to play and the world is waiting for you to take up the glory and bring salvation to the world.” Nwoko noted that President Muhammadu Buhari;s administration was full of evil. “So many abominable things are happening in Nigeria since President Buhari took over power.” He claimed the president was using the military and herdsmen to “kill people from the north-to-east and from east-to-west; everywhere is full of blood and God is not happy.” Earlier, the fiery prophet claimed he foresees the coming of Biafra and that ENugu will be the capital. He said:“This is a return of the Igbo glory; God will lift the Igbo nation; it is a year all the detained pro-Biafra agitators will be released. “Enugu will be the city to watch as God’s glory will rise from there and extend to all other States in Igboland. “I will lead the spiritual cleansing because there is hatred on Ndigbo, jealousy because of their glory. The wicked have planted evil in Igbo land but this is the time to uproot it. “The enemies have done so much to make sure that Nbdigbo do not progress, that they will hate themselves. “I prophesy that this is a year of liberation; a year of Biafra struggle; let Igbos wake up. The spirit is appealing to Nnamdi Kanu and others suffering in detention to be patient. God will bring all of them out this year. “Ndigbo should take up former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s advice seriously. They should heed his advice and start developing this place. The world is waiting for Ndigbo,”. https://www.naij.com/1082109-igbos-stay-nigeria-prophet-nwoko.html?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C1268716267
