BIAFRA: WHY THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT'S BOLDNESS IS DEPLETING In a battle, people tend to assert all forms of energy at the early stage of it, that energy result depends on the ability of the propellers to sustain it within a reasonable defined times. The reason most termed "lesser powers" ones destroyed the "bigger powers" as in the case of Vietnam defeat on United States, Israeli defeat on Arabs and subsequent historical evidences, lie on the fact that these looked down powers sustained their battles tactically. One thing is to sustain a battle front, another is to be tactical about it. The difficulties facing the handlers of the Nigerian state now over the Biafran question, is the undisputable fact that IPOB is blending soft and hard approaches with multiple missiles positions launchers. Any battle that is multifaceted and multidimensional is not just costly, but dangerous for parties involved to end well if not strategically executed. Unlike other freedom fighting group within African region, IPOB have shown exceptionally dangerous to undermined due to her very dangerous approaches in projecting and prosecuting her demands. If you make a comparative analysis between IPOB and others, you will agree with me that while others are battling for leadership centralizations, IPOB settled that quite a long time ago by building everything about Nnamdi Kanu thereby making it difficult for polarisation which most freedom fighting groups in Africa are currently battling with. The centralization political philosophy of IPOB, makes it difficult for deep penetration by agents of state actors. On the contrary, when state actors think that the best strategy is to remove out of the gallery, the defacto head as a way of polarisation as we are currently seeing in the abduction of Nnamdi Kanu, what IPOB taught us is that the sub-auxilary units of her (the DOS) are piled up for shock absorber. Make no mistake to think documentations are not going on as regards to IPOB's approaches. Africans and the world are kinly observing. IPOB is teaching reckless and rogue states how biting a responsible non state actor could bite. I understand the worries of some state actors within the continental sphere as what IPOB is doing is tantamount to regional rekindling of freedom consciousness. Yes those who chose to analyze it on that angle might be partly right, but to be honest, it will be difficult to see a non state actor with the capabilities to fight spontaneously on different theatre at same time. Only IPOB is doing so currently! Others defined a certain spate for themselves like guerrilla war tactics and specialise on it. They have no legal battle ground, media battle ground, diplomatic battle ground and others. Because of their sectorial dependency, they got missing in other necessary areas too. Only IPOB have the energy and synergy to activate multidimensional battle strategies and that is why, any active mind who understands how expensive it is to sustain multidimensional battle lines often accuses IPOB of having international monetary supports. Anyway, the clarity of the accusations and counter accusations lies on the future when issues of the struggle are declassified in Biafra. The difficulties the handlers of the Nigerian state are currently facing on IPOB is that they are confronted with a movement that the political class within the region are not in control of neither are they going to control. One thingnl is to activate a "political process" another is to tolerate and understand the disposition of your opponent. This is what the Nigerian state is yet to understand. It worries them how a non state actor is demanding to sit on the dialogue table as "equal" and not a "subject". The shock of this position of IPOB is threatening to them and thus, forces them in dilemma of no control. Their failures to implement same Niger Delta approach of seeing the fighters as "criminal who deserves amnesty" on IPOB, is worrisome to them. In the case of Niger Delta, the boys were seen as subjects who needed some cashes to be sprayed and it worked for them at the current deplorable state of the region. In the case of IPOB, the Nigeria state is explicitly made to understand by IPOB leadership that both her and IPOB are actors. You can call it arrogancy or whatever, but the truth is that that position is predetermined factor that will lead to other things. It is getting done to all that IPOB is one group that the word "deal with" has never had efficacy on. She handles threat as irrelevant and waters it down to its zero level. Today, every single one who took part in the criminal abduction of Nnamdi Kanu is regretting and distancing themselves. From Kenya to the list fellow, all is not having the face of what was promised. The current affidavit presentation of Kenyan Attorney General in Kenyan court, distancing their government of accomplice of the criminality, shows that diplomatic pressures are working. I quite understand Kenya's distancing after seeing how weak Nigerian state is towards winning the war against IPOB. No one wants to sink with a sinking ship nomatter how good the ship might look. Kenya feels the burdens of repeated protests in her foreign missions facilities by IPOB. One thing countries hate is protests because it speaks of dissatisfaction of the regime. That is why both Canada truckers protests and the black lives matters protests in these respective places are and were worries to the governments. You can't imagine often correspondence coming from different Kenya's foreign missions updating the home land government of protests in their facilities. It really speaks volume in face of a decent government. So to Kenya, the best form of saving her face from the international disgrace which the stubborn IPOB have in stock for her, is to abandon Nigeria. But denial doesn't in anyway, exonerates a criminal! Kenya's denial which is today is on legal template, is a stepping stone and material fortification for upward IPOB hit. What Kenya's denial does is to equip us better to dissect the criminality of the rogue states and their accomplices in the international kidnapping network. The future is quite interesting as the matter is developing. Nigeria is going to be striped naked and the world will see and tingle. While the current government seems to panicking over less times on their side to effectively fight, IPOB have all the time to make sure they don't go unaccountable in their rogue action. Fighting a group with soldier ant � approach like IPOB, is the most stupid decision anyone can initiate. Today, the government is pushed to the defensive lines that even cloth is now weaponised. That is how far she has run haywire over IPOB. Within the government circle, IPOB is now seen as a movement that uses everything available to her to advance the course including clothes. When an enemy sees weapons all around you, then you have win the battle. What is needed is sustainability not minding the challenges. We are created for winning and we own no mortal explanation or apology for that! Written by Chika Austine |

The trial is three fronts, Umuahia, Abuja and Nairobi Kanu has already won in Umuahia, securing a 1 billion Naira judgment. Nairobi are already falling with the affidavit that Kenya does not know how Kanu left Kenya Abuja we shall see |

This write up made my day.. The op thoroughly analysed everything.. The truth is that MNK is not standing alone... I believe he has some powerful(foreign and local) backers whom he has made a commitment.. IPOB since inception has been resolute ,smart and well structured... If you have been observant of their activities, you will understand that they are advancing in their modua operandi and it's becoming dangerous.. A dialogue is the best thing to do at this point.. The once peaceful group now has an armed ESN component, and I wonder what would be their next step in years to come |

I think what is happening in cameroun is an underground power play between France and Britain... Same thing may be happening in Nigeria too but other countries like china and israel may also be involved.. Battle of economic interests and allies alliance in the most blessed nation of Africa... Why USA may be watching from the background Any way... peaceful dialogue is the main deal with implementation of fiscal federalism |

Well analysed comrade. The facts of yesterday ruling on Igbo traditional wear "isi Agu" speaks for themselves. The people of Biafra now understand the position of Igbo's in Nigeria. As a Comrade in the Biafran struggle. I will directed that all measures be taken for our defense. Just this morning some private schools are directing young Biafrans to sing the Nigerian national anthem. Those schools will feel our wrath soon. I believe that I interpret the will of the people when we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost but will make it very certain that this form of treachery from schools, businesses and keke riders shall never again endanger our orders. With confidence and unbounding determination of our Biafran people we will gain the inevitable triumph. |

I'm liking this IPOB guys. Their strategy is quite multifaceted or perhaps amorphous. Throw in a bit of 'Auto Pilot' arm and you get even more dangerous a mix. 2023 is very pregnant, no wonder all these talks about saving Nigeria. After 2023, IPOB will either wane or wax. At this rate, waxing will only produce a behemoth. |

... It's only a fool that thinks that ipob are just noise makers,the Nigerian federal government thinks otherwise.. Government that couldn't jail someone they called terrorist leader for seven months speaks volume.. Everyone including Federal government is accusing ipob of everything,the recent accusation from Abba kyari against ipob speaks volumes.. While online zombies urchin are littering nairaland yapping rubbish their paid masters are sweating like Christmas he goats.. Ipob have beat the zoo both in media war,legal war and even conventional war.. What a time to be alive.. The arrogant federal government have been brought to their knees.. The president can't address the nation without either complaining or condemning ipob.. |
