Nnamdi Kanu Must Be Strong For Biafra by Rotemigen: 12:01pm On Oct 31, 2015 |
Kanu must be strong for
Biafra
By Tim Tochukwu
Part of the discussions going
on amongst Biafrans at the
moment has to do with the
pressures being exerted on
Nnamdi Kanu, leader of
Indigenous People of Biafra
(IPOB), and Director of Radio
Biafra, to compromise the
Biafran struggle. The Biafrans
had become aware of the
report of endless stream of
visitors – prominent Northern
Nigerians – visiting Kanu in
detention with the sole
purpose of making him to
jettison the struggle for
Biafra’s independence. They
have been visiting him with
juicy offer, of positions in
government and money. The
people were well informed on
how Kanu had bluntly refused
all the offers. Without doubt,
it was good news that he
turned down the offers. That
should also be good news to
his numerous followers who
have followed him on his
agitation train as a result of
his constant promises that he
would never accept bribe
from Nigeria to jettison the
struggle.
At a time, Kanu made it a
point to duty to pray on air,
asking God to strike him dead
any time he contemplated
selling-out on the struggle.
Notwithstanding, as things are
now, one simple answer Kanu
must give to those trying to
lure him away from the
struggle with pecuniary
offers, should be akin to that
Nelson Mandela gave to the
apartheid regime in South
Africa. It is worldwide
knowledge that every time the
South African government
reached out to Mandela, to
negotiate with him in prison,
he has always told them that
he would not negotiate in
chains. Kanu should do same.
He should tell the Nigerians
that he would not negotiate
with them behind bars. While
Kanu is doing that, he should
also remind himself some of
the things he told Biafrans on
air, one of which is from
history that every Biafran
that had aligned with Nigeria
against Biafra always came
back disgraced or out-rightly
killed. This should keep him
focused and make him stand
stronger for Biafra. The IPOB
leader should also remind
himself of Biafrans who had
done so and paid dearly for it.
For instance, there was the
case of Nnamdi Azikiwe, a
colossus and former Nigerian
(ceremonial) President who
was reduced from the
towering stature of the great
“Zik of Africa” to an
insignificant appellation of
“Owelle of Onitsha”. He
should remember Chuba
Okadigbo, who thought
Nigerians were sane enough
to recognize academic
excellence and brilliance, only
to be gassed to death by
Nigerian authorities in a
street in Abuja, Nigeria’s
capital. Now, more than ever
before, Kanu must not fail to
remember Alex Ekwueme,
another Biafran who served
Nigeria diligently as Vice
President and was corrupt-
free. But after the coup d’état
that ousted their regime, he
was humiliated by being
dumped in Kirikiri Maximum
Security Prison in Lagos,
while Shehu Shagari, who was
the president, was allowed to
go home without molestation.
What about Goodluck
Jonathan, the naïve and
uniformed adult who knew
nothing about his heritage.
Jonathan spent his life
learning how to serve Nigeria
diligently, but not about his
people; how to uplift Nigeria,
but not how to uplift his
people. He never spent time to
think about Nigeria and its
evils against his own people –
Biafran people.
It was not a surprise that he
headed a government that
gave award to people who
violently and insolently
colonized his people. He
became the president and
came out disgraced, even
when he was the best of all
Nigeria had ever got as
president in terms of forward
planning and execution for
future development. In spite
of that, he achieved nothing
for his Biafran people and
came out condemned and
discredited. Kanu should
remember Ken Saro Nwiwa,
the one who was so greedy
and in a hurry to sail out his
own people, having been
offered a “commissioner”
position at the age of 19/20.
He, as a result, rejected his
own and chose to serve
foreigners against his own
people. He stood for the
dispossession of his own
people just for some
momentary rewards and
pleasures. Unfortunately for
him, when reality dawned on
him and he wanted to retrace
his steps and revert to service
to his people, it was those
foreigners that eventually
murdered him through a
judicial murder acknowledged
worldwide.
Kanu should also remember
that it was Nigerians who
killed Isaac Adaka Boro who
aligned with the marauding
Nigerian soldiers during the
Biafra/Nigeria war. He made
the mistake of believing that
the Nigerian vandals had a
better heart to grant his
people autonomy more than
his own people who worked
for the autonomy of the
Midwestern Region. He
showed the way to enter
Igweocha (Port Harcourt)
through the creeks. After the
war, it was these same
Nigerian vandals that shot
him from behind and killed
him. Knowing how fiery he
was as an agitator, and that
he would give them hell
whenever he realized that
they tricked him. Kanu should
think of Lebanya Uwazuruike,
the one they call Ralph
Uwazuruike; the one that had
all the prospects of becoming
great as a peaceful agitator,
but sold-out to greed. He lost
it all because he took his eyes
of the big picture of Biafra to
gaze at the fleeting gains of a
rotten Nigeria.
He could not see that Nigeria
was gradually slipping into
oblivion. Today he is an
empty soul walking around
and seeking succor because
Biafra has rejected him and
Nigeria has also rejected him.
With these few reasons above,
Nnamdi Kanu must not allow
any fleeting thought of
betraying the struggle stick to
his mind, no matter what they
offer him. He must resist the
lure of Nigeria as Arnold
Schwarzenegger resisted the
anti-Christ in the movie “End
of Days”. Nnamdi Kanu, you
must be strong for Biafra, the
reward is better. 11 Likes 1 Share

Many people are already popin in every day, I meant rich biafrans men and woman, her spirit is in all his citizens, this time no going back. [Biafra or death Message for all biafrans Biafrans know it well that we receive no sense of belonging in the failed state called Nigeria. Finally,We are gathering information of all the new developments in Nigeria and how Buhari is meeting with Yakubu Gowon to stratagise and consolidate their rusty idealogy of crushing the Biafrans and defend one Nigeria. It is evident in the recent statement by Gowon that it is over with Biafra. No matter the might of the storm, Biafra MUST be celebrated come 2016.Let us settle this problem of Nigeria once and for all this year 2015.Biafrans all over the World with this message let us stop neglecting one another and try to be our brothers keepers. God bless us! God bless Biafra future generations!! Long life United State of Biafra!!! The truth shall prevail... .NO GOING BACK.Mr Azubuike Francis. IPOB DIASPORA Pic below Asari dokubo 3 Likes

The northern oil looters who feel threatened are the ones luring him with money. I thought they said Igbo can sell their people. If he doesn't take their offers, they'll then have him killed. Anyway he is already immortalized, a living legend. His face will be on millions of shirts soon across the world as a 21st century symbol against wicked oppression. His voice will be recorded and replayed in schools in Biafraland and all over the world to serve as an inspiration of what a steely resolve can achieve. We will all die someday but Nnamdi kanu is already living forever and all those who disagree with him will come to agree with him when they study the history of revolutions and emancipation in schools. I am proud to have lived in his time and i envy him greatly. We must thank his family for giving us such a great Biafran. #BiafraMarchesOn 3 Likes |

Kanu can NEVER, repeat NEVER, compromise on Biafra. He is an intelligent man and his aim is IMMORTALITY. In all of the history of eastern Nigeria so far only one man has achieved that so far -Emeka Ojukwu. Kanu wants to surpass Ojukwu in fame and immortality, and I say he is about 80% there already. He understands that everybody must die one day. What matters is what you used your life to achieve. He says it constantly that Biafra is beyond anybody. Biafra is a SPIRIT -a nagging spirit of the Most High Chukwu Okike Abiama. Death awaits anyone who sabotages it. Immortality awaits those who prove themselves honorable and faithful to Biafra. 1 Like |

I have saved a lot of these articles, our future will/must know these things. It's not about implanting hate into younger minds, but stories of these betrayals must be thought in primary schools, our kids will know the fight we fought, and why they should never trust Nigerians, even in a million years to come! This will be our current affairs, it will be our history lesson! |

gab264: Are you sure you are really ready to die for Biafra? Am sure those who attempted to die for Biafra between 1967 to 1970 will never wish for what you wish for. You don't know anything about war. If you want to be headstrong and go to war against Nigeria, you will lose the war again and lose ALL your properties in other parts of Nigeria. Your businesses will also fail because there will not be Hausa or Yoruba customers to sell to. So, you better be careful about what you wish for. 1 Like |

begod: No, you will not be fighting like a hero. You will be fighting like a big foool and eediot. The man who draws you into the war will leave his family in Europe, while your thoughtless lot in Biafra will be dying by the day out of hunger and bullet. It is only a foool that will resort to violence when an issue can be sorted by simple deliberation. You will die and you will go and decay and become unknown, but Nigeria will still remain one and no one will ever remember you, except your sorrowing mother and family members, provided they too do not perish in the war. You Igbo's have sense in business, but you behave like senseless goats in every other aspects of life, especially in your agitation for Biafra. 2 Likes |
