Biafra: A Nation Under Siege by frankdoz(op): 11:25pm On Apr 21, 2018
Biafra, a nation endowed with variety of blessings, has been besieged for decades of years now. It has been tales of calamitous experiences for Biafrans and the global community seems unperturbed. The genocidal orgy of violence meted out against the people by a concentration of enemies has remained a non-discussable subject, with no foreseeable tangible plans from the International community to combat the anomaly. The name Biafra, appears anathemaic anywhere it is mentioned. But one thing is clear. Biafra is a divine project whose people are exceptionally endowed with enviable talents, knowledge and skills which have undeniably premised them on the pedestal of professional positions globally in various fields of endeavors. Unfortunately though, the people of Biafra, were contrapted to co-habit an entity where human life, dignity and respect are grossly devalued and disdained. The continued decimation of Biafrans by the Boko Haram terrorists and Fulani killer herdsmen with no respite, holds sway.
Since the fraudulent amalgamation of the sharply divergent indigenous people groups in 1914 by Fredrick Lugard which he christened Nigeria, Biafrans have remained the sacrificial lambs used to service delusional unity. The resultant consequence of that forced union has been greeted with unrelentless spate of killings, victimization, incarceration, marginalization and enslavement. The Hausa-Fulani (terrorists) infested Nigerian military regularly proud themselves as licensed killers of the Biafran people and nobody seems emboldened enough to question it. Biafrans are treated as second class citizens even in their own homes, farm settlements, business places and worship centres. The Fulani killer herdsmen, adequately sponsored and protected by the Nigerian government, maraud every nook and cranny of Biafraland, destroying farm produce with their cattle and killing the land owners. The question have been: what is really the offence of Biafrans to warrant this level of hatred? Exercising even their fundamental rights of self determination, by peacefully congregating and harmlessly pressing home a demand as humans, as distinctively stipulated by the United Nations charter amongst others, they are yet being hunted, hounded, killed and extra-judicially incarcerated.
Armed with these incessant inhuman attacks and degrading treatments in the hands of those that they were supposed to co-exist with, Biafrans have irrevocably decided to take their own destiny in their hands by courageously seeking for their freedom. The civilised global community has steadily and pretentiously be looking the other way, ostensibly for crass egocentric reasons. Their fear hinges on their assumed amount of power Biafrans will wield even globally through their romance with salient world players (world powers), should they be allowed to go. But the reality remains that "a slave" who realises his/her status and potentials must someday be off the shackles. The Biafran people have over the years, remained the endangered species of humans on earth and the season has dawned for their total emancipation.

People can talk all they want about Nigerian unity but the empirical evidence in the analysis of 103 years of the creation of Nigeria as a country and 57 years as an 'attempted nation only led to one thing.........

Failure!

Nigeria does not work, it can't because the people who populate it have no unifying focal point. The simple proof of this is that the 3 majority ethnic groups, Yoruba/Igbo/ Hausa-Fulani have very little in ideological commonality

In order to be a nation, the various indigenous ethnic nationalities that make up that supposed nation must agree on the terms of the union, and even when they agree, any ethnic nationality,or nationalities, can decide that the union no longer represents their individual or collective aspirations and wish to seek self determination.

Nigerians can be hypocritical. The same Britain that created "Nigeria" gave one of its constituent areas, Scotland, an independence referendum in 2014. Scotland voted to remain.

But when the same Nigerian, created by the British, hears anything about 'breaking away, 'referendum', 'IPOB/MASSOB'

The next thing is 'treason' 'military deployment' ' 'kill them!'

But every 1st October, a Nigerian will go out to celebrate:-

"A Country he did not create, Lugard did that for him."

"A name he did not create, Lugard's wife did that for him"

"Having his independence from Britain but thinks that Biafrans enjoying the same from Nigeria is a crime.

WE SHALL BE FREE!

those people you are making jest of selling pure water are hard working people who believe in being diligent. so many of them who did that business in years past have built for themselves formidable businesses and built mansions. they are far better than agberos,skull miners and other social misfits and miscreants littered around SW whom for ages have refused to develop themselves despite the advantage of being indegines.

Look at this dumb afonja; when Biafraans are talking, you should be quiet because naturally you know nothing. It's like Jews talking, and Arabs trying to join. We Biafraans don't regard you afonjas as anything; that's why we want to separate from you.

Abeg mechonu jo!

Am not making fun of pure water sellers but rather your allusion that only ibos sabi hustle. If i had made such statement, you would be the first to tag me a tribal bigot.

And i ask you again, are there no thieves, robbers, agberos and social miscreants from your neck of the woods ni?
