              AN OPEN LETTER TO THE UNITED NATIONS.

It is with a heavy heart that I write this letter to your organization. An organization that is known to be deeply concerned about the welfare, livelihood and future of a people. One that have also been known to intervene where there is an unstable situation of extreme dangers and difficulty. One that is also known to step inbetween the oppressor and oppressed to avoid the repetition of the Holocaust, Rwanda, Sebia, South Sudan or Somalia. I write to inform you that Nigeria, our once upon a time Nation is heading that direction except you decide to intervene on time.

Dear United Nations, the situation in today's Nigeria would have been pleasant if it was read from the archives of history from the 19th century. Nigerians have been trapped between a decision to either stay enslaved in the dungeons of the DSS (Department of State Security {The Nigerian Home Securty department}) and the EFCC (Economic Financial Crime Commission {An afterthought political Creation that replicates the duty of the Police on Financial crime intelligence}) or a life without the freedom to criticize a directionless government of the day. The system of government cannot just be described as a dictatorship or monarchy, but can be best described as a fanatically regionalized and religiously motivated government that makes it not just a danger to Nigerians, but to the entire continent.

Dear United Nation, the Nigerian Anti-Corruption fight may not come as a news to you as the entire world must have heard from our President's several speeches outside our shores about his much flattered anti- corruption fights. But the question is; What is the Mudus Operandi of these battles? Has he informed the world that the corruption battles are only targeted at the;

(1). Opposition Party (The PDP)
(2). Vocal Critics of government.
(3). Citizens of Nigeria from the old Eastern and Midwest Region (Lower Niger Area)
(4). Christians.

Dear United Nations, if you could do Nigeria a favor and go through the list of all the alledged corrupt Nigerians in the dungeons of either the EFCC or the DSS, it would reveal to you that they all have a common denominator of the above mention class. Starting from the former NSA that has been in holding for over 6 months now, which has also served as a primary conduit to tap on-to any prominent member of the opposition party the government wishes to silence. The others in the dungeons of the Nigerian Military are members of the IPOB/MASSOP who a greater percentage were brutally killed at random on the 28th of May, buried at undisclosed locations, while the survivors are kept in their holding awaiting orders. Dear United Nations, what are your responsibilities again if not to step in before it is too late.

Some months ago, the immediate past Nigerian Chief of Army Staff and his colleagues where invited, questioned on the acquisition of landed properties and banked finances owned by them. I cannot say for sure if they are free men now, but I can say that the questioned acquisitions were forfeited from them. Yet a current serving Army Chief, the then Director of Procurement of the Army has been privately investigated and found to own mansions in far-away Dubai, but the government say he acquired the said multi-billion Naira mansions from his servings as an army officer. Dear United Nations, the former Nigerian Minister of Petroleum and a former Director of Shell for many year has been marked for prosecution because she owned jewelries and a house at Abuja. A two time serving Governor's account was frozen because he had N2.1bn to his name. Several properties in Abuja and Lagos owned by the opposition has been forfieted by government because all members of the opposition are corrupt, while all members of the ruling party are saints, eventhough they just decamped to the ruling party a few months to the election.

Dear United Nation, the theme of the anti-coruption fight in Nigeria is the "Stolen Arms Procurement Fund" with an accompanied chorus of "The PDP elections campaign funds" Yet in all these fight, Nigerians have not been told about the source of funding for the APC campaigns that was tripple expensive compared to the corrupt PDP's. The anti-corruption battles has looked the otherway even when several concerned NGOs and Civil Rights Organizations have filed several petitions to this EFCC informing them on how the APC governors emptied the financial coffers of their respective states to fund the campaigns of the ruling party. Rather my dear United Nations, we have these Governors appointed as Ministers with large portfolios to this same government fighting corruption with tooth and nail, while the serving APC governors enjoy bail-out funding from the Federal goverment.

Dear United Nations, those are not the primary objective of writing this letter to you. My primary concerns is the gradual and intending POGROM against a section of Nigeria. As I write my dear United Nations, every political appointments that concern SECURITY ISSUES HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN FROM SOUTHERN NIGERIA amidst continous attack on southern villages by the so-called Fulani herdsmen that have been certified as a personification of terror. They RAPE, KILL AND BURN entire villages at night. The government claim they are foreigners from Niger and Lipya. Even as at this, the government wishes to arm-twist the southern states to provide these killers with a reserved area in a bill they call they GRAZING RESERVE BILL. Please do you grant reserve areas to foreigners? Dear United Nations, please REMEMBER RWANDA.

As if the killings of the over 100 IPOB/MASSOP members or even the over 3.5 million Biafrans killed during the execution of the Britished backed organized pogrom of 1967-70 is not enough, the region, the Lower Niger Area is currently being paraded with heavy armed presence in pretext of searching for the Niger Delta militants. In all these, like I said, the region does not have a representation in THE NATION'S SECURITY COUNCIL. The current configuration are THE FULANI MUSLIM NORTH. The elites of the Fulani herdsmen. Dear UNITED NATION, The safety of the region is questionable. As I write, one of the PDP chieftain, a former Minister of Aviation and former Director of Media and Publicity for the opposition party Chief Olufemi Olu-Kayode currently being incarcerated unlawfully at the dungeons of the EFCC was almost lynched by an Islamic fanatic EFCC agent for reading his Bible, while being refered to as an infidel that will be killed. Dear United Nation, several southerners are being held in facilities guarded by these fanatics. These and many others bring us to our request.

Dear United Nations, in 2007, you unanimously voted and enacted a CHARTER ON RIGHTS TO SELF DETERMINATION. The one you named The UNITED NATIONS CHARTER ON SELF DETERMINATION. In its first article, the first paragraph, You said that every indigenous peoples' have a right to self determination. You said that as a people, we have a right to determine our economic and political future and cultural development. My dear United Nations, as it stands, we never sat down on a round table to agree that over 80% of our oil wells should be owned by people who kill and malign us at any slight religious provocation. We never agreed to be led by those that put more values to the lifes of their cows over our lifes. We never agreed that our economic and cultural development should be determined by people that have a different life ideologies from us. We never bargained to be led by men from the 7th century. We wish to express our rights to Self-Determination and Preservation. WE ARE NOT NIGERIANS, BUT A PEOPLE OF THE LOWER NIGER REGION.

The LOWER NIGER CONGRESS has made its presentations to you. You told us that we had fulfilled all requirements as an Indigenous peoples based on the 1895 map found in the Portuguese and British museums. You promised the representatives of the LOWER NIGER CONGRESS to fix a visible date for REFERANDUM +- first quater of 2017. Dear United Nations, just as you were quick in responding to the Scots wishing to leave the United Kingdom, and the way you responded to the Cremeans wishing to leave Ukraine or the speed at which you got involved in the ‪#‎BrExit. I strongly believe that if The United Nation had existed before 1939 the way it is now, THE HOLOCAUST would have been prevented. I write to implore you to give THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLES OF THE LOWER NIGER AREA their rights. It is one of our fundamental rights as human beings.

Best regards

 AN OPEN LETTER TO DEPUTY LEADER INDIGENOUS PEOPLE OF BIAFRA (IPOB)/DEPUTY DIRECTOR RADIO BIAFRA(RBL) AND BIAFRA TELEVISION(BTV) 

 Dear Sir, Uche Alphonsus Mefor With heavy heart i am writing this open letter to you. Nwachineke, please i have not been myself since yesterday night (25/06/2016) and i strongly believe that millions of Biafrans are heart broken as well. Our deputy remember our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu how he was framed up by those he want to save from oppression, subjugation, marginalization and imperialisation.

 

Remember how he was betrayed by the same people he left his family and comfort zone to deliver from political intimidation, disenfranchisement and victimization. Nwachineke, i can still recall how you were and are still working 24hours on our radio calling for the release of our leader and many other things when he was arrested. Non of us went to sleep because to me once you are live on air no sleeping for the night until after our broadcast Nwachineke, remember those that were killed at Igweocha, Bayelsa, Enugu, Aba etc while protesting for the release of our leader.

 

Our Deputy remember Dec 2nd 2016, Feb 9th and lastly May 30th 2016 and those that are still incarcerated. Nwachineke, i can not keep narrating all of it because I’m already soaked with tears. What happened on our radio last night is a clear indication that you are fed up with our enemies who are among us feeding fat from some of our weaknesses knowing the fact that non of us is perfect and never intend to relent.

 

Nwachineke, remember you never ended our yesterday broadcast with a closing prayer and Biafra National Anthem chai (tears)! Deputy remember our Prophet Mazi Nnamdi Kanu the burning flame he left in your care please do not let it be quenched by anyone whether within or outside.

 

 Let me make this clear that those who are working to destroy the structures of leadership as set up by our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu are not worthy to be leaders because the interest of that common man in the streets of Biafraland is not part of his business. Please sir, consider what will become the likes of me if our radio is off for one week without any reason. Remember you are doing this for your people the Biafrans and your boss Nnamdi Kanu. Great Biafrans when will saboteurs live us alone?

 

When will they live alone? Let's use our tongue to count our teeth. ALL HAIL BIAFRA! ‪#‎freeNnamdiKanu ‪#‎BiafrExit  

 In the wake of threats by former military Head of State and All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, general Muhammadu Buhari to jail all corrupt government officials if elected into office, a statement made by former military President, Ibrahim Babangida in 2013 to the effect that he will expose the corrupt practices of General Buhari has resurfaced. 

Babangida, who at the time spoke via a statement signed by him and issued by his media aide Kashim Afegbua was reacting to claims by General Buhari that President Goodluck Jonathan had killed the petroleum sector of the economy, threatening to expose information of General Buhari’s misconducts during his time as both Petroleum Minister and Chairman of the Petroleum Trust Funds (PTF), offices the APC Presidential candidate held before he usurped power from then President Shehu Shagari via a bloodless coup in 1983.

Using the popular adage that “those who live in glass houses do not throw stones,” Babangida said General Buhari should mind his utterances or else he will expose information of his (Buhari’s) financial misappropriation which he is/was privy to, advising General Buhari to quit his sanctimonious demeanor. Parts of the statement read: “He is a one-time Minister of Petroleum and we have good records of his tenure as minister. “Secondly, he also presided over the Petroleum Trust Fund ( PTF) which records we also have. “We challenge him to come out with clean hands in those two portfolios he headed. Or, we will help him to expose his records of performance during those periods,”

While stating that it was not in his character to exchange words with a former colleague, but for record purposes: “we are conversant with Gen. Buhari’s so-called holier-than-thou attitude.” He also advised President Jonathan to graciously receive criticisms and if he was bmaling past leaders for Nigeria’s woes, he (Babangida) should not be fingered. The statement continued: “On President Jonathan, there is nothing wrong in criticism if it is constructive and in the interest of the country. Gen. Babangida is one unique former President who does not criticise a sitting President as a matter of courtesy. “If President Jonathan is blaming past leaders, he should look elsewhere, certainly not IBB.

 LETTER TO REV. FATHER KUKAH;

I greet you from my Heart. I have my respect for you as a person.
I am doing you this Letter based on your present DEMAND that AGITATORS in NIGERIA should Direct or Route their DEMANDS through the NATIONAL ASSEMBLY.
I am SURE that you did not travel to "PAYA" and so just returned to the Country. I hope you know that we are in DICTATORSHIP. I may be wrong but I urge you to look down well and listen to your Spirit well.
We are where we were when the LAW was MANIPULATED and used in HANGING KEN SARO-WIWA and other OGONIS. Are you not aware the even the Memorial Bus of KEN SARO-WIWA is now seized by Customs headed by one of the KILLERS of KEN SARO-WIWA? 
What has become of the UNEP Report which brought you to OGONI recently? Are you not aware of the systematic Environmental GENOCIDE in OGONI and the Niger Delta?????

***Can you tell me by the Spirit of GOD that the NATIONAL ASSEMBLY Represent the WILL and YEARNINGS of NIGERIANS?????

I think your Suggestion is applicable WHERE RULE of LAW is in ACTION with all due Respect. Though you are not a LAWYER but you don't need to be a LAWYER to know and understand what are HAPPENING in Nigeria.
Are you not AWARE of the CONTROVERSIAL GRAZING RESERVE more so that Cattle Rearing is a PRIVATE BUSINESS. How about HERDSMEN ongoing GENOCIDE???????.

Sir, may you stand BOLDLY and SPEAK against ongoing EVILS in Nigeria like Dr Martin Luther King Jr.

GOD Bless and Keep you.

Thank you.

The International Community is silent on Biafra , they have all suddenly gone blind 

 National news

 05 July 2016

·         A new generation of Biafrans is now peacefully advocating for an independent Biafra. Muhammadu Buhari, the Muslim president of Nigeria, is fighting the nascent independence movement with military force.

·         "I saw one boy trying to answer a question. He immediately raised his hands, but the soldiers opened fire ..." — Witness to the shootings, to Amnesty International.

·         As for IPOB's leader, Nnamdi Kanu, director of London-based Radio Biafra, he was arrested in October 2015 and has been held since, illegally, despite meeting bail conditions.

·         It is noteworthy that a peaceful situation, such as that of the pro-Biafra movement, apparently requires a "military option", whereas a lethal terrorist group, such as the Muslim Fulani herdsmen, who murder innocent civilians, does not. This tactic furthermore brings into question whether Buhari's efforts at curbing Boko Haram in the country are genuine or merely a play he puts on half-heartedly for the benefit of the international community.

On paper, the plight of Biafrans -- whose state in what is today southeastern Nigeria, lasted for only three years, 1967-70, before the Nigerian authorities ended it with a genocide against them -- should, for the international community, be an open-and-shut case.

Journalists, human rights activists, social justice warriors on campuses throughout the West, and organizations such as the United Nations and the European Union, all ostensibly claim to care deeply about human rights, especially for people whom the Europeans once colonized.

Biafra constitutes a textbook example of British colonization. The country's brief existence was cut short by the Nigerian government's genocide, which crushed all hopes for independence and self-determination. Biafrans, today, are denied their fundamental rights of assembly and free expression -- rights that are guaranteed by the Nigerian constitution. The Nigerian government continues murderously to oppress them and their movement for sovereign freedom.

The international community, headed by the UN, which preaches the gospel of human rights and self-determination, persistently ignores their national aspirations.

The territories that constitute present-day Nigeria came under colonial occupation as British protectorates around 1903. Nigeria is essentially an artificial construct, created as a colony by Great Britain in 1914, when it merged the protectorates. The country is made up of a number of different indigenous African peoples, among them the Biafrans, who are ethnically predominantly Igbo.

After Nigeria's independence from Great Britain in 1960, Biafra seceded from Nigeria, and in 1967 declared its own state. The Nigerian government refused to accept the secession and responded by launching a war on Biafra. The assault included a blockade of the nascent state, and resulted in the murder of more than two million Biafrans, many of whom were children who starved to death because of the blockade.

The Biafrans, watching the dissolution of their young state, surrendered to Nigeria in January 1970. They realized, perhaps, that the world's abandonment of them did not warrant any future for their cause.

Unlike others at that time, such as the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO), Biafrans did not engage in hijacking and bombing airplanes, taking hostages and other forms of terrorist attacks against innocent civilians to further their cause. The international community responds obediently to terrorism. Whereas the PLO has now become the Palestinian Authority (PA) and is among the world's largest per capita recipients of international foreign aid, with a plethora of "human rights activists" championing its cause (as well as a UN body, UNRWA, exclusively for Palestinians), it would be hard to find a diplomat at the UN who even knows how to pronounce "Biafra".

The question inevitably comes to mind, why the ostensibly anti-racist, pro-self-determination international community of opinion makers and human rights advocates has neither the political goodwill, nor the treasure to spare for the Biafrans.

Although the genocide effectively ended Biafran independence, a new generation of Biafrans is now peacefully pressing for an independent Biafra again. In an example of extreme hypocrisy, Muhammadu Buhari, the Muslim president of Nigeria, has declared himself fully committed to a Palestinian state, while his military fights the Biafran movement for self-determination with brutal force.

On May 30, Biafrans commemorated Biafra Heroes Remembrance Day. According to Amnesty International, the only major human rights organization that has interested itself in Biafra,

"An on-the-ground investigation... has confirmed that the Nigerian army gunned down unarmed people ahead of last month's planned pro-Biafran commemoration events in Onitsha, Anambra state.

"Evidence gathered from eyewitnesses, morgues and hospitals confirms that between 29-30 May 2016, the Nigerian military opened fire on members of the Indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB), supporters and bystanders at three locations in the town."

"Opening fire on peaceful IPOB supporters and bystanders who clearly posed no threat to anyone is an outrageous use of unnecessary and excessive force and resulted in multiple deaths and injuries. In one incident, one person was shot dead after the authorities burst in on them while they slept," said M.K. Ibrahim, Country Director of Amnesty International Nigeria. He continued, "This is not the first time that IPOB supporters have died at the hands of the military. It is becoming a worrying pattern and this incident and others must be immediately investigated".

Also, according to Amnesty, some of the dead and injured IPOB supporters were shot in the back, an indication that they were fleeing the scene when they were shot. In addition, soldiers stormed St. Edmunds Catholic church, where hundreds of people, who had come from other parts to participate in the pro-Biafran commemoration events, were sleeping. According to one witness:

"At about midnight, we heard someone banging the door. We refused to open the door but they forced the door open and started throwing teargas. They also started shooting inside the compound. People were running to escape. I saw one guy shot in the stomach. He fell down but the teargas could not allow people to help him. I did not know what happened to the guy as I escaped and ran away."

Another witness told Amnesty that on the morning of May 30, he saw soldiers open fire on a group of around 20 men and boys aged between 15 and 45. He said that five of them were killed. "I saw one boy trying to answer a question. He immediately raised his hands, but the soldiers opened fire...He lay down, lifeless. I saw this myself." The witness described how military officers loaded men with gunshot wounds into one van, and what appeared to be corpses into another. Later that morning, another witness described how police shot a child bystander as a group of young men protested the shootings.

According to Amnesty,

"Following the shootings, the military told media sources that the soldiers only opened fire after being shot at first, but Amnesty International's research has found no evidence to support this. All the people the organization interviewed said that the protesters were not armed; one young man said that he threw stones at the police and military after they shot teargas at the IPOB members. He said the military then fired live ammunition in return. Information gathered by Amnesty International indicates that the deaths of supporters and members of IPOB was the consequence of excessive and unnecessary use of force. International law requires the government to promptly investigate unlawful killings with a view to bringing the perpetrators to justice. Amnesty International is also calling for those IPOB supporters still held in detention without charge to be either immediately charged or released".

Amnesty International began research into the violence and killings of IPOB members and supporters in southeast Nigeria in January 2016 and is expected to publish a comprehensive report on the matter in the near future.

Thus far, Amnesty says , its research shows that,

"Since August 2015, there have been at least five similar incidents in Onitsha alone where the police and military shot unarmed IPOB members and supporters. Amnesty has documented cases of alleged unlawful killings by the Nigerian army between August 2015 and May 2016. In August 2015, military officers opened fire on peaceful supporters of IPOB calling for an independent Biafran state. The killings and mass arrests of members and supporters of IPOB by joint military and police operations continued.... On 17 December 2015, for example, the military killed five people when they opened fire on members of the IPOB who were demonstrating in Onitsha in a celebration of a court order for the release of their purported leader, Nnamdi Kanu. In February 2016, the Nigerian military used excessive force to disperse a peaceful gathering in a school compound in Aba. At least nine people were killed and many more injured..."

As for IPOB's leader, Nnamdi Kanu, director of London-based Radio Biafra, he was arrested in October 2015 and has since been held, illegally, despite meeting bail conditions.  

Supporters of "Indigenous People of Biafra" (IPOB) protest in London against the Nigerian military's killings of civilians in Biafra, and call for the release of IPOB's leader, Nnamdi Kanu, November 13, 2015. (Image source: David Holt/Flickr) By contrast, while President Buhari uses military force against the peaceful Biafran movement, including at events as innocuous as Biafran commemoration ceremonies, his government has stated that it will not use military force against Fulani herdsmen. The latter comprise a predominantly Muslim, semi-nomadic group, now deemed to be the fourth-deadliest terror group in the world according to the Global Terrorism Index (GTI). Between 2010 and 2013, they killed 80 people in Nigeria, but by the end of 2014, this figure had risen to at least 1,229 people, according to the GTI, which ranked the African nation as the world's third most terrorized country.

According to Buhari's Minister of Interior, Gen. Abdulrahman Dambazau, however,

"This is a non-military issue that borders on law and order. It is not every security issue that you call in the military. It is the responsibility of the police to maintain peace. I believe that if we put the police in proper position in terms of discharging its functions, then there would be no need for military option. The police are equal to the task.... In any case, I do not even have the power to deploy the military for anything. It is only when the situation gets out of hand that you invite the military."

It is noteworthy that a peaceful situation, such as that of the pro-Biafra movement, apparently requires a "military option", whereas a lethal terrorist group, such as the Muslim Fulani herdsmen, who murder innocent civilians, does not. This tactic furthermore brings into question, whether Buhari's efforts at curbing Boko Haram in the country are genuine or merely a play the Nigerian president puts on half-heartedly for the benefit of the international community.

The situation should at least give countries such as Germany serious reason to reconsider their involvement in the region. Germany has said that it will begin supplying military hardware to the Nigerian government to address "security challenges in its North East and Niger Delta regions" before the end of 2016. One has to wonder whether Germany, a country that has invited migrants into its country in order to show how tolerant it is, has considered that it risks supplying the Nigerian government with military hardware that could well be used to kill Biafrans.

Other countries in the process of selling, or planning to sell, weapons to Nigeria, include theUnited States, which refused -- bizarrely, out of "human rights concerns" -- to provide the former Nigerian president, Goodluck Jonathan, a Christian, with weapons to fight Boko Haram, but apparently has no qualms about helping Buhari, a Muslim, whose murder of defenseless people in southeastern Nigeria is evidently considered unproblematic.

In short, the international community has a lot of explaining to do.

                 NIGERIA CANNOT SURVIVE WITHOUT 

                 THE IGBO - By Femi Aribisala, Lagos.

Among the different ethnic groups in Nigeria, the Igbo are without a doubt, one of the most remarkable. So remarkable, indeed, that some have even traced their ancestry to biblical Israel, as the far-flung descendants of Jacob, the Jewish patriarch. Gad, Jacob’s seventh son, is said to have had three sons who settled in South-eastern Nigeria.
These sons; Eri, Arodi and Areli, are believed to have fathered clans in Igbo-land and to have founded such Igbo towns as Aguleri, Arochukwu, Owerri and Umuleri.

Igbo Genius.
Even the bitterest adversaries of the Igbo cannot but admit that, as a people, they are very resourceful and ingenious. Indeed, this has often been the cause of their envy and dislike by others. However, more enlightened non-Igbo Nigerians see this as a cause for celebration. While today, the centre-point of Nigeria’s manufacturing is situated in the Lagos/Ogun axis, there is no doubt that the real locomotive of Nigeria’s indigenous industrialization lies farther afield in Aba/Nnewi and in the mushrooming cottage-industries of the Igbo heartland.

Igbo-menIn one of the paradoxes of Nigerian history, the terrible civil war provoked homespun industrialization in the South-East. Military blockade left the Igbo with little alternative than to be inventive in a hurry. While Nigeria as a nation failed woefully to harness this profitably after the war, it has nevertheless ensured that the Igbo are at the forefront of Nigeria’s economic development today.
Indeed, the way we disregard “made in Aba” today is the same way we disregarded “made in Japan” yesterday. For those of us who believe against the odds that Nigeria is the China of tomorrow, we equally recognize that the ingenuity of the Igbo is an indelible part of the actualization of that manifest destiny.

Hall of Fame.
The Igbo have been a great credit to Nigeria. They have given us a great number of our favourite sons, including international statesman Nnamdi Azikiwe; military leader Odumegwu Ojukwu; regional leader Michael Okpara; vice-president Alex Ekwueme; mathematical genius Chike Obi; literary icon Chinua Achebe; world-class economist Pius Okigbo; world boxing champion Dick Tiger; international statesman Emeka Anyaoku; and world-class artist Ben Enwonwu. Permit me to include in this illustrious list even some of my very good Igbo friends: Pat Utomi, Ojo Madueke, Olisa Agbakoba, Joy Ogwu, and Stanley Macebuh.
Let us get one thing straight: Nigeria would be a much poorer country without the Igbo. 
Indeed, Nigeria would not be Nigeria without them. Can you imagine the Super Eagles without the Igbo? Not likely! Who can forget Nwankwo Kanu, Jay Kay Okocha and our very own Emmanuel Amuneke?
Can you imagine Nollywood without the Igbo? Impossible! Just think of Stella Damascus-Aboderin; Rita Dominic and Mike Ezuruonye.

And then there are the diaspora Igbo who many are unaware are of Igbo descent, including concert singer and actor Paul Robeson; Oscar award-winner Forest Whitaker; mega-pastor T.D. Jakes; Olympic champion Christine Ohuruogu; and BAFTA actor award-winner Chiwetel Ejiofor.

You may well wonder why I have found it necessary to present this small litany of Igbo who-is-who. I think it is important to emphasise how the Igbo have been very vital to the Nigerian project. They have more than represented Nigeria creditably in virtually all walks of life. This makes it all the more absurd that this same people have been consistently denied the position of executive president of the country in all but six months of Nigeria’s 54 year history.

The war
The Igbo were abused and maltreated in one of the worst pogroms ever. It was not just that they were senselessly massacred in their own country; it was that they were butchered.

I remember vividly gory pictures of scores and scores of the Igbo with hands chopped up and with legs amputated. And then there were the ravages of the three-year civil-war itself, resulting in the death of millions of Igbo; many through starvation and attrition.

The end of the war brought no respite, as the Igbo were pauperized by fiscal decrees that wiped out their savings and their properties were blatantly sequestered by opportunists. All this is more than enough to destroy the spirit of any group of people. But God has been on the side of the Igbo.

It is a testament to their resilience that, in spite of this terrible affliction, they have survived, bounced back and have even triumphed in Nigeria. Forty years have now gone by. The Igbo may never forget what happened to them and, indeed, should never forget. But it is past time for them to forgive.

We Are Sorry.
This is one voice in the Nigerian wilderness saying to the Igbo from the depth of his heart: we are sorry. We are sorry for the way we mistreated you. We are sorry for the way we abused you. We are sorry for starving your children to death. We are sorry for killing your loved ones. We are sorry for stealing your properties.

We are sorry for making you feel unwanted in your own country. Please forgive us. It is time to forgive us. It is way past time for the Igbo to forgive Nigerians. We beg you in the name of God.

Paradoxically, the redemption of the Igbos to prominent national office moved apace under President Obasanjo; a Yoruba man. Recognising that Igbos are some of the most seasoned, competent and experienced public-servants, Obasanjo relied heavily on their expertise.

Thanks to Obasanjo, we got Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala at Finance, Charles Soludo at Central Bank, Obiageli Ezekwesili at Education, Ndidi Okereke at the Stock Exchange, and Dora Akunyili at NAFDAC. Indeed, Igbo statesmen came into more prominence under Obasanjo than did Yoruba statesmen. But for some strange reason, this does not seem to have succeeded in assuaging the ill-feeling of the Igbos toward the Yorubas.

Nigeria cannot survive without the Igbo.

I have left NTA and the rest stations for him to stay glued to. Astoundingly, I hardly read online news about his archaic and one-sided policies. I have punished my pen not to write him any open letters. Yet, he still keeps doing the very things I was not made to endure.

I have seen and read about nepotism, but I have never seen one that is as profound as the one being expressed by President. Muhammadu Buhari.

I pity Nigeria because such actions are inimical to her unity and continued existence.

I pity the apologists of Mr. Integrity, from my clime, who will think me an ardent lover of our land that can never see anything right in Mr. Anti-Corruption. I know their eyes will open when our President will not only deny us appointments but also deny us the incommensurate allocation they give us every month.

Is this the best way to make for a united Nigeria?

Welcome to the Federal Republic of Nigeria where a Northerner is first considered in everything..not only appointments.

It seems Kachikwu is having the Spirit of Niger Delta...

Buhari, like Nigeria, is a clear charade.

There can be no one Nigeria when Niger Deltans are inconsequential.

And to think that we, Niger Deltans, are disunited in such a critical time is to say the least shameful.

Ok. My ProBuharians might soon come and remind me the years we ruled Naija and yada yada yada.

Anyways, may we not keep quiet till we see Hausas selling us land and our other possessions here.

Buhari, why don't you send an executive bill to the National Assembly to change Naija's name to the United Fulani Emirate? 
Meanwhile, this one that the SGF said we are not qualified, I would have lobbied to be an Ambassador from Bayelsa State. But honestly you are not qualified Sam. But do you mean there is no single Bayelsan that is qualified to man that job? Ok...I guess too many questions begging for an answer even as the answer is evident.

Femi Fani Kayode message to 

Nigerians and Christians!!

After been molested by a Muslim efcc officer today.
He personally wrote on a sheet of paper and gave to a Christian officer a member of The Redeem Christian Church Of God. Whose name was withheld. Give this to my my secretary,he should ensure this message get across my Facebook friends and ministers of God.

Read:

"God willing am in custody of efcc. But to me is a great time to commune with God just the way Paul and other brethren did in their days.
I am here not only because my party gave me money to campaign for them like every other politician even in APC. But if it might interest you to know,what is going on is the persecution of Christians. Before i forget,this message should be taken to apostle Johnson Suleman the founder of OMEGA fire ministry. I had a revelation that they are planing to attack him. Because he is one of the major voice crying out for justice in the body of Christ.
The Muslims are out to persecute the Christians. 
I am here under custody because the likes of Kabiru are not comfortable with my position as a Christian. 
God willing,the dark age will soon be over.
They refused taking me to court to defend my civic right.
They want to keep me for the next 4years. But they don't know it is dangerous. I now have time to pray more,study more,and even meditate.
Before my arrest,Lai Mohammed offered me an amnesty if only i decamp to their anti-Christ party. 
I refused because i know who i am.
No man can cover your sin for you. If am guilty,i will surly come out strong.
This is not just anti-corruption fight. Where are the PDP governors and leaders from the North? They are walking freely today.
This is a fight to pocket the voices of Christians. 
A situation where an office picked offence on me for relating with my God through the name Jesus. He threw my bible to the floor today.
If it where to be the Quran,will he do that?
The head of who did that would've been at the gate of Aso rock by now.
So many secret plots to eliminate top politicians and pastors who are Christians is on going.
Tukur was right when he raised alarm that,a meeting was held in Dubai to overthrow Jonathan by all means. Part of what they discussed at the meeting,is what Aregbeshola and El-Rufai are displaying in their various states.
I am not an infidel and i will never be one. I am a man of dignity. I will not stop fighting even here in prison.
I am the John the Baptist of my generation. 
I will not keep mute and watch anti-Christ imposing policies that are not religious friendly.
What has bible got to do with my case with the Efcc?
Why are they keeping me here when we have a competent court to prove if am guilty or not?
I am blowing the whistle now for Christians to go on their knees. This was how i warned my brothers against Sheriff whose mission is to destroy the PDP and give room for Buhari to install one party system.
We gave them opportunity to be opposition.
Why are they depriving us such right if they don't have interior motive.
A democratic system without vibrant opposition is said to be dictatorship government.
God willing,i will be alive to witness Nigerians glamouring for referendum like what took place in great Britain. 
And such referendum will tell if we truly saw the future under president Buhari's government.
Arresting Kayode is the greatest achievement they've achieved. But for me,God used them to keep me here,in order to prepare for the challenges ahead.
Today is pregnant. Let's see what tomorrow will deliver.
They were not elected to be permanent. They have maximum 8years to stay. And is already counting.
Thank you all for your prayers.

THE EVIL THAT MEN DO 

LIVES WITH THEM!!!

THE INVISIBLE SOLDIER –

KWASHIORKOR HITS

 AGAIN: THIS TIME IN 

BUHARI'S CAMP-THE 

NORTH

An illusory amalgamation of two very different nations by some impious aliens who saw themselves as colonial masters; has since 1914, caused the death of over 8 million people and still counting –all in a bid to retain this contraption, Nigeria. Biafra and Nigeria has been a slaughter house where Biafrans are repeatedly victims, on the other hand, a goldfield for Britain where they amass wealth for their queen and her country. 1967-1970 was the peak of this bestiality, Britain and Russia masked themselves in Nigeria and declared war against Biafra.

The tone of the cruelty in Biafra was best described by Commander Benjamin Adekunle of the 3rd Marine Commando Division, Nigerian Army to French radio reporter, he said, ‘’I want to see no Red Cross, no Caritas, no World Council of Churches, no Pope, no missionary and no UN delegation. I want to prevent even one Ibo from having even one piece to eat before their capitulation. We shoot at everything that moves and when our troops march into the centre of Ibo territory, we shoot at everything even at things that do not move."

In spite of this, one of the remarkable weapons used by Nigeria during the 30 month civil war that claimed the lives of over 3.5million Biafrans was starvation. This tool was allowed because it is the case of a Black man; as brutal as the second war was, starvation was never used. This condition, forcibly led even an unborn child to the battle field, the newly born sucked a dry flat breast, lizard and rats became rare meats and salts were sold in tea spoons. This was the birth of Kwashiorkor, a disease that has never found its way to this nation as far as history can tell.

Kwashiorkor is a severe form of malnutrition, caused by a deficiency in dietary protein. The extreme lack of protein causes an osmotic imbalance in the gastro-intestinal system causing swelling of the gut diagnosed as an edema or retention of water. This became the invisible soldier, killing mostly women, children and the elderly. It turned to be Nigeria’s most dangerous tool to further exterminate Biafrans. The world looked on, the world was silent, we suffered in anguish, died miserably and according to Philip Emeagwali ’’ We unceremoniously buried dead children (and adults) at the bushes behind our refugee camp. My niece "Baby" Okwuosa and my paternal step-grandmother were buried without a funeral’’.

Gen. Alex Madiebo, on July 1968, saw the condition on Biafrans and lamented: ‘’I saw several hundred of Zombie-like creatures -men, women and children, lying, sitting or squatting in the midst of others who were dead. The living ones were completely reduced to skeletons and could not talk. I was seeing for the first time, kwashiorkor. Frankly, I took fright, I believe that any foreign troops from anywhere in the world occupying Ikot Ekpene or any other town in Biafra would have shown much more sympathy.’’

Today, this invisible soldier has found its way to the Northern part of Nigeria. Kwashiorkor is presently decimating children in most Northern states, they are dying of starvation in their own land. According to the Borno Emergency Management Agency, about 450 children (aged between one and five years) have died of malnutrition in 28 Internally Displaced Persons’ camps in Borno state in 2015.

Dr Sule Mele, the Executive Director of the Board, reported this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Maiduguri. He said ‘’more than 209,577 children have been screened for various illnesses, including malnutrition, malaria, diarrhoea and vomiting. About 6,444 severe cases of malnutrition was recorded in the camps, 25,511 have mild to moderate symptoms, while 177,622 among them were not malnourished’’.

The above is just an instance in Borno, Kwashiorkor has also extended its tentacles to Jigawa, Kastina, Kebbi, Zamfara and Yobe States. According to report from ‘’Working to Improve Nutrition in Northern Nigeria’’, WINNN, (funded by the UK Department for International Development), about 370,000 children with severe acute malnutrition in Northern Nigeria required lifesaving treatment.

Dr Mohammed Liman, National Programme Manager, WINNN, said that the rate of malnutrition in these aforementioned states is as high as about 58 per cent. “As a result of malnutrition, 58 per cent of children under the age of five in these states suffer from stunting, meaning that their physical and mental developments have been impaired. An estimated 370,000 children with severe acute malnutrition in these states will require lifesaving treatment this year, without such treatment, some 70,000 are likely to die,”

The North claims to be the food basket of the nation, but Kastina has a whooping 2.4 million almajiri beggars, begging not just for money but mainly food. The nation currently imports about 90 per cent of the rice she consumes, tomatoes are grown in Plateau (not North), cows too are currently imported from neighboring countries. No fertilizer has been distributed to these northern farmers in the past 12 months to grow the beans and groundnut they are known for. Things have suddenly fallen apart for the north, they are fighting this invisible soldier.

So when you see their children today with a pot-belly, they are not a drunkards; when you see them with altered hair texture, they did not dye it in a hair salon; when their legs and arms are swollen, they did not sustain any injury -they are battling the invisible soldier, Kwashiorkor.

The North boasts of about 70 per cent of the top positions in Nigeria, and ironically, she can boast of 70 per cent of the nation’s poorest people too. The North boasts of feeding the nation, but cannot feed herself. They occupy all government seats but are still the nail cutters, shoe polishers, truck pushers and waste pickers. In Nigeria, the name ‘’Aboki’’, no longer depict its real meaning, but simply means ‘’a low life’’. Nature has again brought these British slaves to where they belong.

The invisible soldier has arrived! Kwashiorkor has taken over the Northern Nigeria! What goes around, comes around. Adieu ‘’One Nigeria’’.

Nigeria is corrupt and president Buhari 

is "fighting corruption"

Let's get things right;
Nigeria got independent in the year 1960. 1967 -70 was the Biafran v Nigerian civil war.

Since the end of the civil war no Igbo has attained the position of presidency in Nigeria.

The Hausa's have been in power for the most part of the 48years followed by the Yorubas.

Jonathan a none Igbo from south south was in power for 5years.

Why then is Buhari's corruption fight against Jonathan's administration? Is this to imply that Nigeria only got corrupt in the past 5years of GEJ administration?

If you want to fight corruption then every body that have held office in the country should be made to prove their assets and monitory worth including Buhari's and those in his administration and party members!! If you have held office and your house is worth N50million then you are corrupt period

What Buhari is currently doing will take nigeria back to the dark ages, this is called party witch hunt. The current administration will leave office one day and another party will take over and retaliation process will start and the vicious circle that president Buhari set the precedent will continue. 
Then those that are condoning and clapping for him now,will resort to fasting and praying as is always the case in Nigeria, people do not like to use initiatives or think critically,but God will do it,which will soon become their song. God will really not be mean if he chooses to distance him self from nigeria because he must have had enough of people not using their brain to think critically!!

You must be kidding me to imply that all the people in Jonathan's administration are corrupt but those that have moved over to APC are not. This must be a joke. What about the OBJ's,the IBB etc. Who was responsible for the PTF frauds?

The main reason it will be difficult for nigeria to succeed,will be due to the inability of its citizens to think critically and to hold responsible those people that have ruined Nigeria and continued to do so.

Nigerians celebrate politicians that have stollen billions from them but can kill a man that stole to feed his family!

What a country, what a shame, a country doomed but it's people are not wise enough to see it!!!

Biafrans write open letter to American army

“It is with a heavy heart I write you today our brothers in the American army, to let you know that your people back home in Biafra land are being massacred, humiliated and dehumanized on a daily basis. And the need for you to form a formidable force and fight for the restoration of our dear nation Biafra, with everything within your arsenal. “The President of the Republic of Nigeria Muhammadu Buhari and Hausa-Fulani cabals have vowed to wipe out Biafrans from the face of the earth and occupy our land with impunity. 

Right now, Biafra land is under siege. The Fulani herdsmen cattle rearers (janjaweed) are invading our rural communities with AK47 rifles, other types of guns, machetes and explosives, destroying our farmlands, raping our mothers and sisters, killing our fathers and youths, and razing our building. “Over 500 people were massacred in Agatu village Benue state of Biafra land, and their properties destroyed. Many were also killed in Awgu village in Enugu state and properties destroyed by this janjaweed. This Fulani janjaweed is now all over Biafra land killing us and claiming our land belongs to them. 

“When we came out to peacefully protest the illegal detention of our leader Nnamdi Kanu who is still in prison till now and the restoration of Biafra, the Nigeria army, police and navy shot many of us dead and got many of us wounded. “On February 9, the Nigerian army collaborated with police to massacred our people who were singing and praying for the release of our leader Nnamdi Kanu and the restoration of Biafra, at National High school Aba, and whisked away many of us who are yet to be released or seen, and carried away the corpses of those of us they killed on the spot to clean up evidence, but little did they know that we are wiser because the video of that pogrom is all over the internet. 

They are killing us in our land and yet trying hard to tag us, terrorists. It is that bad.  “Currently, in Biafra land, the Nigerian army, DSS, police and SARS are secretly kidnapping our youths and killing them. Everybody is living in fear as no one knows who is next. Our principal officers are hunted like criminals because they are working for the restoration of our dear nation Biafra, even when self-determination is a universal law. “Hausa/Fulani and Yoruba oligarchy have conspired against us again like they did in 1967 to 1970.

 They have vowed to frustrate our businesses since we are the most enterprising people in the contraption called Nigeria. Markets where Biafrans trade, are razed down or demolished at random. In Lagos State, Yaba market, Ladipo market, Oshodi market were demolished by Lagos state government without prior notice to the Biafran traders who make up over 90% of the traders in those markets. Ikosi area of Ketu market was burnt down. In Abuja, Gwagwalada market was demolished, and in Kano Sabongari market has been razed down twice. Even today April 21, 2016 , in Lagos, not less than 50 shops of Biafrans has been razed down.  

One Nigeria is dead already.  ‘It is no longer news that Boko Haram is killing our people who are living in the northern Nigeria in hundreds of thousands and destroying their properties, but the worst news is that Nigerian government does not allow us to carry our dead and bury them in Biafra land rather they are buried in mass grave in Hausa/Fulani land. This, you know is a sacrilege in Biafra land because Biafrans do not bury their dead in a foreign land. “I call on all the indigenous people of Biafra, serving in US army, navy, and air force to stand up and add your voices in the fight for the restoration of our dear nation, Biafra. 

Stand shoulder to shoulder with our leader Nnamdi Kanu, who is a prisoner of conscience (POC). “If you are from Izon, Itsekiri, Igbo, Ibibio-Efik, Igala, Idoma, Igbanke, Ogoni, Kalabari, Ikwere, Okirika, Igbo-Akiri serving in the US military, know that time to restore Biafra is now and all hands need to be on deck. For the sake of our fathers, mother, brothers and sisters that died during the war from 1967 to 1970 and those being killed and massacred now, and our yet unborn generation, come let us restore Biafra. If we fail to restore Biafra now, we shall all become history.”

  The Late Nigeria 

 Enem Isaiah Innocent
Nigeria, the purported giant of Africa like the Babylon has hit the bucked and Biafra is risen; thus for one poor man to rise, a rich man somewhere must fall. This is not to say Biafra is the poor man. 
Gradually and on a grand style, events are unfolding by the day as those considered world powers are systematically conducting their funeral.
The exit of Britain from European Union in recent times marks the beginning of Britain’s spiritual and physical downfall. Other countries of the world are not exempted from this queue of permanent collapse and/or dilapidation. This is because no one eats his cake and has it, and for obliterating Biafra from the world map was the height of insolence that must not be easily let go.
Indeed, coming to terms with natural justice and the position about the preponderance of truth, see that the only imminent instrument capable of bringing to its knees Nigeria and other countries of the world to zero existence is the truth. Call it global upheavals facing the big names of the world such are: America, Britain, Germany, Japan and the Zoo called Nigeria is clear pointer.
There is no gainsaying that Nigeria is long dead, since 2014 and lying fallow in the morgue in wait for her last respect. Though, I see her children saturated in confusion on how to go about her funeral; I see them stranded and frustrated, wondering the streets of poverty, encapsulate in fear of unknown destiny and worst still, pained by the intasted demise of their uncircumcised mother.
It takes a dead man such as Muhammadu Buhari to rule a dead country. It takes a criminal and terrorist as Mohammadu Buhari, who once told the world that members of his country are criminals to rule or govern criminals, except Biafrans.
It also takes a cursed man as Buhari to rule or govern a cursed country. As a concoction, contraption and British experiment long disgusted of her numerous vile hear voices of frustration of those chanting sonorously for one Nigeria. The question is: does the living seek oneness with the dead? How many have gone to make a living in the cemetery or land of the dead? This is but cry with multiple lyrics. While some are weeping for about losing contact with their ill-fated destiny, assets and source of ill-gotten wealth at the expense of the owners, others are crying for being a failed generation with less hope of having a voice in the aspired new nation under way. What a shame? The aphorism that the young shall grow is to the youths a manifestation of joy taking over the mantle of leadership. This indeed is home calling for the reincarnated David in the global firmament of world heroes and history. Thus, says the scripture, “and the sign shall follow them that believe in my name and in my name they shall cast out demons.” Biafra is that David who has bounced back to take charge of his possession.
The likes of Atiku, Obasanjo, T.Y. Danjuma, Abacha's and Babangida who go home on daily basis with $12.5b from oil blocks illegally owned; while the real owners beg to survive are calling for restructuring Nigeria. Fundamental questions demanding for surgical response being: Are those calling for restructuring Nigeria proud of their country? To what extent have they impacted on the so-called country they tend to restructure? Should they be proud of the country Nigeria as birds of the same feathers flock together, why stealing from the country to developing foreign countries? Why the conspiracy by the majority organs of the federation against the minority if the country is worth oneness? Having said earlier, Nigeria's nightmare deepens, given Britain's exit from European Union followed by David Cameron's resignation as BPM. This is an indication that Biafra is here. A bombshell Buhari least expected! One wonders what becomes of Buhari's faith as he now preaches oneness. “I beg you in the Name of God stop bombing pipe line installations” he said. The vehemence otherwise attendant concentration with which Buhari talks about Biafra using every opportunity that comes his way; leaves many wondering what it is that makes him mad about it.
Some columnists have wondered if the sure thought of Nigeria breaking up frightens him or that if the agitators are left, they could actualize their dream? Indeed, the phobia for Biafra apparent resurgence is enough to make him think the way he does. The general who claims stronger than Adolf Hitler now has musical lyrics which encapsulate more of Biafra than any other single thing; seeing palpable fear as the last president of the late Nigeria fighting hard, to gain resurrection from the pit of hell.

SOCIETY FOR THREATENED PEOPLES 

CALLS ON THE UNITED NATIONS TO 

INVESTIGATE MAY 30 MASSACRE 

OF BIAFRANS An independent commission must investigate the escalating violence in Nigeria. After the violent death of at least 35 Biafrans in southeastern Nigeria, died during the repression of IPOB hereos day by the Nigerian police and army on Monday, May 30, the Society for Threatened Peoples (STP) has called for the establishment of an independent commission of inquiry. We must therefore independently clarify who is responsible for the use of heavy ammunition and why it was decided to shoot at Biafran peaceful and unarmed protesters. If the government of Nigeria is not prepared to carry out investigation, we will ask the High Commissioner for Human Rights of the United Nations to clarify the reasons behind the escalation of violence by the Buhari led administration. Impunity will only feed more violence in Biafra. The mass killings of innocent Biafrans is unjustifiable. Background of the rally were the celebrations for the 49 anniversary of the declaration of independence of Biafra from Nigeria on 30 May 1967.

The activists had called for in the Biafra we gather in prayer meetings in churches and public events. The Nigerian security forces have also penetrated the churches and arrest and killed some Biafrans while they were sleeping. The most serious incidents occurred in the city of Onitsha in the federal state of Anambra. Here at least 30 people were killed. After this new escalation of violence the perpetrators, the Nigeria security forces must not remain unpunished otherwise the entire south-east of Nigeria is likely to fall in violence in 2017, when they will be remembering the 50th anniversary of the start of the genocide in Biafra against the Biafrans.

WHAT CAN SEPARATE 

BIAFRANS FROM THE LOVE 

OF BIAFRA? NOT 

KILLINGS, 

INCARCERATIONS, NOR TORTURE.

Thursday 14th July, 2016.
"The world should know that we don't just love our country (Biafra), but we are fanatical about it." ...Nnamdi Kanu, 2015.
The struggle for the restoration of the Sovereign State of Biafra is best described as Jesus did in the Gospel of John Chapter 3, verse 8 ‘’The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth.’’

Ever since the year 1967 Biafrans decided to take their stand for freedom, the wind of agitation has been blowing; sometimes too hot that it tends to burn off our joy, sometimes too cold that one might question if the risk is worth the essence. Nigeria has heard the wind severally, in what looks like an attempt to catch a wind, they have tried to halt it but they neither know where this wind is coming from nor where it is going to.

Just like the Jews in Europe, inconceivable atrocities was unleashed on Biafrans 1967-1970. According to THE SPECTATOR ARCHIVE, 26 December 1968, a journalist gave the world a glimpse of this horror as he lamented ,  ‘’ When I visited Biafra in July, I was told by Red Cross officials, by Dr Herman Middle- koop of the World Council of Churches, by the Catholic missionaries there and by secular relief workers that the most accurate estimate of current mortality would be 3,000 a day. Needless to say, I was not able to see anything like that number.
"When I visited Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Umuahia, I saw about a hundred children who were beyond recovery, according to Dr Shepherd, the medical officer in charge. He said that if I had come on an out-patients day I would have seen nearer a thousand. That is the only contribution I can personally make to the evaluation of statistics, since everything else was hearsay—a missionary who said that he had buried ten children that day; Mr M. N. Nwaubani, in charge of the Orei Amaenyi refugee camp of 550 inmates, who said that twenty-eight of his charges had died, a fact of which he was not at all proud. It was only one of forty-two camps around Aba, and one shudders to think what has happened to them now.
"After I left Biafra, the figure, according to the re- sponsible relief organisations, quickly rose to 5,000 a day until it has now reached the appalling level of 10,000 deaths a day inside un- occupied Biafra and 4,000 a day in the so-called 'liberated' territory. …even then, if we divide the figures by ten, we are still left with the most hideous crime against humanity in which England has ever been involved.
If the original purpose of the siege was to make Biafra surrender, then August's 'final push' was an admission that this strategy had failed.

"The notion of a 'quick kill'—so enthusiastically endorsed by Mr Nigel Fisher and others—ended in bloody and atrocious failure, as anybody who had ever spoken to a Biafran —even a Biafran nurse in an English hospital —could have told him it would. At no stage of the last twelve months in the present war have the Nigerians enjoyed an arms superiority of less than ten to one, and when I was there the ratio was probably much nearer a hundred to one.’’
The war later ended on paper in 1970, but in reality, the killings, incarceration and torture by the Nigerian forces has not ceased. We are killed for whom we are, arrested for saying the truth and tortured for exacting our rights; but what is ironical in this situation is this endless call for the restoration of Biafra. Biafrans have decided to either restore Biafra or die trying –evident in their valiant and unflinching approach to this process.

As obsequious as Igbo Roman Catholics are to their authorities, Rev Fr Mbaka with all the reputation he surmounts, could not convince Biafrans otherwise. Ohaneze and other distracting bodies, piloted by the federal government to frustrate the struggle are yet to convince a road hawker at Onitsha otherwise. The rapacious and usurious politicians like Joe Igbojuru, Chris Ngiga, Rochas Agbogho-Ocha, are deeply frustrated with the very organized and brave IPOB strategy to restore Biafra.

The fierce wind of Islamization that swept across West Africa could not stain Biafra, in Emeka Ojukwu’s words, ‘’ Our Biafran ancestors remained immune from the Islamic contagion. From the middle years of the last century Christianity was established in our land. In this way we came to be a predominantly Christian people. We came to stand out as a non-Muslim island in a raging Islamic sea. Throughout the period of the ill-fated Nigerian experiment, the Muslims hoped to infiltrate Biafra by peaceful means and quiet propaganda, but failed.

Then the late Ahmadu Bello, the Sarduana of Sokoto tried, by political and economic blackmail and terrorism, to convert Biafrans settled in Northern Nigeria to Islam. His hope was that these Biafrans on dispersion would then carry Islam to Biafra, and by so doing give the religion political control of the area. The crises which agitated the so-called independent Nigeria from 1962 gave these aggressive proselytisers the chance to try converting us by force.
It is now evident why the fanatic Arab-Muslim states like Algeria, Egypt and the Sudan have come out openly and massively to support and aid Nigeria in her present war of genocide against us. These states see militant Arabism as a powerful instrument for attaining power in the world.
Biafra is one of the few African states untainted by Islam. Therefore, to militant Arabism, Biafra is a stumbling block to their plan for controlling the whole continent. This control is fast becoming manifest in the Organisation of African Unity. On the question of the Middle East, the Sudanese crisis, in the war between Nigeria and Biafra, militant Arabism has succeeded in imposing its point of view through blackmail and bluster.

It has threatened African leaders and governments with inciting their Muslim minorities to rebellion if the governments adopted an independent line on these questions. In this way an O.A.U that has not felt itself able to discuss the genocide in the Sudan and Biafra, an O.A.U. that has again and again advertised its ineptitude as a peace-maker, has rushed into open condemnation of Israel over the Middle East dispute. Indeed in recent times, by its performance, the O.A.U. might well be an Organisation of Arab Unity.’’
Ojukwu’s death, which many saw as the end of Biafra has turned to be the birth of a new agitation; Nnamdi Kanu’s arrest which is supposed to be an epilogue of the new agitation has garnered more agitators; Aba massacre that was supposed to serve as a deterrent to further Pro Biafra gatherings brought more people to the struggle. The more people Nigeria kills and arrest, the more Biafrans are convinced that the agitation is just. Millions of Nnamdi Kanus and Onwudiwes have emerged, more determined to do the little they can towards the restoration of Biafra.
Oh British Nigeria, do you not know? Have you not heard? Biafrans are the ‘’Never Been Ruled’’. If Biafrans were not subjects to their kings thousands of years ago, how do you expect them to subject themselves to the puppet Nigeria’s slavery? It is inherent in us to yearn for freedom. Nothing can stop this agitation for the restoration of Biafra – not Killings, not incarceration, nor torture!
‘’If there is a single lesson to be learned from the decade and a half since Korea, it is surely that arms superiority is no effective guarantee against a determined enough, intelligent enough or desperate enough enemy.’’ … THE SPECTATOR ARCHIVE, 26 December 1968.

I’m pro-Biafra, 

Igbos 

have been brutalised – 

Soyinka

Nobel Laureate, 

Professor Wole 

Soyinka has, again, explained his support 

for Biafran agitators, adding that Igbos have been brutalized in a way that justifies their feeling that thay were not part of the Nation.

Soyinka said the Igbo people have been so wronged that they have no choice than to consider opting out of Nigeria.

Prof. Soyinka spoke on Al Jazeera, yesterday where heshed light on his support for Biafra agitators.

“I am very much pro- Biafra because I recognise that the Igbo have been wronged desperately.

“They have been brutalised in a way that justifies their feeling that they were not part of the nation.

“Let me also say this, Biafrans are not entirely innocent in this affair. They were not, but the unleashing of such venom, such devastation on them as a people, was sufficient to justify their decision not to be part of the nation.

“I was pro-Biafran in the sense that I felt that they needed justice.”

Soyinka denied he was a troublemaker, especially in the Biafran crisis, but added, “I grew up in certaincircumstances being very conscious politically, in this very Abeokuta; my mother was involved in the politics, my aunt, Mrs. Funmilayo Ransome Kuti was a leader…

“I grew up among political arguments on issues that concern humanity and I find that basically gravitated towards recognising the basic worth of human beings.

“Something I disagree when they call me a patriot because I don’t agitate on some certain entity called a nation; I agitate on humanity.”

He criticised the removal of History and teaching of the Biafran crisis in schools.

“Officials do not want to confront their own history, especially the history in the making of which they feel uncomfortable but, if you do not confront your past, you are going to mess up your future.”

On Boko Haram and the breakup of Nigeria, he said ironically, Boko Haram might be part of the reasons Nigeria may stay together.

Soyinka said a few years ago, he would have agreed that Nigeria would break, but, now that a section of the country is in trouble, there is some kind of pulling together. He added that the conscience of many Nigerian has been awakened such that they cannot abandon that section of the country.

He urged Nigerians to recognise the plurality of Nigeria, how it came together and begin to devise and adopt a method of governance which cannot only be of massive decentralisation. “That way, we can stay together. If we continue to have a centralist government, then, Nigeria is on the brink.”

                      Biafrans and Nigeri Delta Avengers

Tony den a black U.S army released good idea on how biafra and niger delta militant can win war against enemy receiving support from U.K ,U.S and Arab governments is 1. Bomb and Destroy all pipeline exporting crude oil to prevent government access to exchange of crude oil for money and weapons against Freedom agitators citizens.

 2. Report to UN about your demand for freedom and inform them that if Nigeria government refuse to release Nnamdi kanu and allow them go within one month then agitators forces will destroy and bomb to ashes all foreign countries supporting Nigeria government and bomb there embassy

4. Destroy or bomb the northern heavy armourey/weapons through drones etc . Doing this will shock corrupt colonial nations that stays as parasite.avoid the parasite oil drilling companies existing to prevent betrayal,immediately Nigeria government will loose strength and call for referendum to avoid big invasion of northern Nigeria with advance weapons because NDA and BIAFRANS will gain new supports from somany countries .

Biafra and NDA should established secret national conference for United States of Biafra. Be wise IPOB and MASSOB are democrat or protestant while Militants and other forces are the republicans

Kanu in a petition to the high commissioner of the British High Commission said his trial on treasonable felony is politically orchestrated by the Nigerian government.

A  source within Kanu’s family told NAIJ.com that the letter dated August 16, and written on behalf of Kanu was sent to the British High Commission on Wednesday, August 17. The source said Kanu is set to send more letters to many other high commissions – a protest on his incarceration by the Nigerian government. The letter seen by NAIJ.com said: “We write to the British High Commission on the ugly direction the political orchestrated trial of Nnamdi Kanu (a British citizen) is premised on a most concocted charges of treasonable felony is gradually assuming.” “In the face of this conspiratorial plot by the Nigerian government to hang our client at all cost and by any means, we respectfully invite the British government to demonstrate more responsive concern in restoring the dignity and freedom if our client whose fundamental rights as guaranteed under the supreme laws of the land and relevant international conventions has been grossly violated by Nigerian government,” it said.

Kanu accused the Nigerian government of frustrating his defence in various ways including the difficulty in accessing records of ruling and orders made by the court during the course of his trial, lack of fair hearing in his matter and the use of facial masks behind screen for witnesses to be brought in by the prosecutor, the Department of State Services (DSS). “Despite our stiff opposition to this application (protection of witnesses), the honourable court for reasons best known to him, apparently not supported by any legal precedence or judicial authorities made a volte-face and strangely varied the order he made on the 19th day of February, 2016. “In effect, the court granted an application for a secret trial of our client, a British citizen obviously sitting in appeal against his order made on the February 2016,” the letter said.

Kanu in the letter said he has further appealed to the Court of Appeal to set aside the order made by Justice John Tsoho of the Federal High Court. “To set in motion, the expeditious hearing of this appeal, we filed a motion for accelerated hearing of the appeal and all processes so far filled in this appeal were duly served on the prosecution, yet there is no single process filed by the prosecution in response to our appeal,” Kanu stated. He also decried the adjournment of his appeal at the Court of Appeal to March 6, 2017. “Upon being informed of this date of adjournment, we promptly protested and consequently filed a complaint before the deputy chief registrar of the Court of Appeal Abuja division. In the aforesaid letter we carefully provided legal basis for the date to be adjusted backward in line with the requirement of the fast track rules,” he said.

The leader of the IPOB further said he is convinced beyond doubt that the “far distance” date given by the Court of Appeal is an effort by the Nigerian government to pave way for the lower court to proceed with its planned secret trial for him (Kanu). READ ALSO: No going back on Biafra – Nnamdi Kanu insists Against the order given by Justice Adeniyi Ademola of the Federal High Court for the unconditional release of his (Kanu) is yet to be obeyed, Kanu said that some members of the IPOB across the south eastern region are being held and detained by various security agencies in Nigeria.

The letter urged the British authority to note that Kanu was arrested on October 14, 2015, and has since remained under detention on various “phantom” allegations including treasonable felony – in contempt of court orders. “It is more worrisome when the court of first instance, he was originally arraigned on these cooked up charges had discharged and acquitted him of the crime, still the federal government is holding him clear breach of these positive orders of the court,” Kanu said. He called on the attorney general of the federation to demonstrate absolute respect and obedience to the rule of law by directing the unconditional release of the IPOB leader, in total compliance with subsisting orders made by the court.

The letter also called for the release of two others – David Nwawuisi and Benjamin Madubugwu – held alongside Kanu. However, on Wednesday, August 17, Kanu also reaffirmed his struggle for the freedom if Biafra and its people. He also he has not and will never renounce Biafra, contrary to indications by the Movement for the Emancipation of Niger Delta (MEND) that he did so in a negotiation with the federal government to secure his release from prison.

AN OPEN LETTER TO INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY ON THE POGROM GOING ON IN BIAFRA WEST AFRICA  

By Onyebuchi Eze of Family Writers (Nnamdi Kanu disciple) & (Member of Grace and Justice Human right Organization).

To UN, EU, AU, NATO, C.WEALTH & ECOWAS.

STATE SPONSORED MILITARY MASSACRE, INTIMIDATION & FULANI HERDSMEN TERRORISM: WHAT NIGERIA GOVT IS USING TO PACIFY BIAFRANS TO STAY WITH NIGERIA

It is with heart full of grief that I write this open letter to international community to put them on notice over the continuous state-sponsored military siege, intimidation, massacre, secret annihilation & Fulani herdsmen terrorism being meted on Biafrans in our ancestral lands just because we insisted that we want to stay out from the present country called Nigeria that was forced on us with gun which does not have our interest in its protect. Needless to begin to list all the previous pogroms been committed by Nigeria government against Biafrans since the years of the genocidal 1967 - 70 near ethnic cleansing called Nigeria/Biafra civil war because time and space will not permit me to do so.

However, since about nearly a year ago when the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Nnamdi Kanu was arrested, being persecuted, being tortured and being subjected to endless adjournment of court process without proper trial, the IPOB and other pro-Biafran agitators has continued being massacred, secretly kidnapped & annihilated, killed and buried in a borrowed pits in Aba, Onitsha, Port Harcourt, Enugu, Asaba and many other cities in Biafraland just because we are protesting for both the release of our able leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu De Great, who is extra-judicially detained by Nigerian government which has defied court verdicts to release him unconditionally.

There is no evil or calamity that Nigeria govt has not committed against Biafrans through its armed forces in order to intimidate Biafrans into dropping their quest for Biafra restoration. On 25/8/2016, was still another well planned state-sponsored security agencies-shielded Fulani herdsmen pogrom in Awkunanaw of Enugu, Biafra, where many people lost their lives, about 800 people sustained dangerous degrees of injuries especially on sensitive organs of their body, many people displaced and fled their homes. I want to categorically make international community to know that Nigeria media especially Vanguard newspapers is deceiving the world with the figures which they are publishing and transmitting in their bid to please their dictator who is waging a state-sponsored onslaught against the media in Nigeria. Based on this continuous state-sponsored massacre of Biafrans, I hereby urge the international community to ask Nigeria government these questions

(1) "Is it a taboo for any indigenous people to choose to secede from a colonial arrangement like Nigeria which is not favouring them"?

(2) "Why are Biafrans always been treated in Nigeria like animals even when being law abiding, whereas the Fulanis that are committing all sorts crime in Nigeria are being pampered and can never be arrested not talk of prosecution"?

(3) "Is Nigerian government using all these state-sponsored terrorism & intimidation to pacify or to force the Biafrans to remain in Nigeria"?

(4) "Is it through extra-judicial detention of secessionist leaders, continuous massacre of the people & all round intimidations that Britain used to pacify Scotland before their failed referendum"?

These questions are begging for answers from Nigeria tyrannical government. Then, I want to ask international community, do you people want Biafrans to resort to arm struggle before you people do something? How long will Nigeria government kill Biafrans before you people do the needful by restoring the sovereignty of Biafra through UN conducted referendum? No tribe in Africa can endure 10% of what Biafrans have endured in Nigeria without resorting to arm conflict.

However, we want to abide by the rules governing self-determination in this 21st century as provided in the UN charter & other domestic and international conventions. Let the international community not view our refusal to pick arms as weakness but our diplomatic & moral strength before the world. Finally, I beg UN, EU, AU, NATO, C.WEALTH & ECOWAS to make haste and save the situation by organizing referendum as Biafrans may reach a point where they may not endure any more. Biafrans are eagerly waiting for u people.

Yours Sincerely,
Onyebuchi Eze (Nnamdi Kanu disciple) & (Member, Grace & Justice Human Right Organization)

A LETTER FROM A CONCERNED IGBO MAN I JUST GOT 

RECENTLY THAT HAS TO DO WITH NNAMDI KANU. PLS 

READ IT CAREFULLY......

THIS IS WHAT HE SAID
To whom it may concern.

"Good evening my people and bad day to Nigerians, As you can see, am about to say something concerning Nnamdi Kanu. the man who was seriously fighting for the liberation of the Biafran people. Although am not a party to what they're doing right now, because am just sitting behind watching to see if what they are doing is right at the time. But why am trying to make this comment is because of this, because I know Nigeria very well that I myself came from. Nigeria might think that so many prominent and learned igbos in Nigeria and in Diaspora are just silent. They weren't silent! They were all watching , monitoring and observing what's going on in that country! how Mr President will handle this matter.

This guy Nnamdi has been arrested and it seems like they are trying to deny him justice. He's still a young guy, newly married, trying to bring about what they did to our people in 1967-70's. But as I'm watching too from far I must say this, let Nigeria not treat the case of Nnamdi Kanu like they treated the case of Fela Kuti and MKO Abiola or so many other tribes in Nigeria they just marred and killed in a secret way, alleging a lot of allegations against them about sickness or whatever. The case of Nnamdi will not be the same!

Because truly am telling you, the Igbo people are not afraid of eventualities! We always prepare ourselves because we're suffering people! We achieve whatever we want to achieve in our country because of our hardwork and perseverance! The Igbos are hard working people, other tribes are jealous of us because of our hardwork! We never give up no matter the situation! So am trying to make this point that you people shouldn't give us story about Nnamdi's eventual misfortune or death or whatever because we'll never listen to that! We've endured so much things that has been happening to us, our brothers and sisters have been killed in Northern Nigeria.

Even in Lagos , our people were being deported from Lagos to Onitsha, you saw all these things, the whole world saw all these things too. But this very case of Nnamdi kanu will be a different case! If Nigeria knows that they won't listen to anybody or persons, let them try and do something funny to that guy, then you'll know that 1967 war is just a piece of cake! We were the minorities, but we'll stand Nigeria together with their allies Britain and some other countries that helped them. So just imagine what'll happen now, Nigeria will become a place of FIRE if they try to kill that boy! Am just making this statement, to remind you that we the Igbos and other minorities in Biafran land know your plan, we know why you're trying to delay the release of this guy, because you have some secret things in your skeletons! But we won't allow you to do that! Even those Igbo leaders and prominent people that haven't been speaking about this, and then they'll come out. You'll see chaos in Nigeria, you'll see multiple killings, you'll see the holocaust war you never expected! So this is a warning am just telling Buhari and his colleagues just to use his office to bring peace to Nigeria as a whole by freeing that guy. That's only what am saying. Now am not a member to this struggle, but the moment anything happens to this guy, I'll join the struggle immediately! I'll join those who'll revolt if anything happens to this guy! And I'll do anything I can to see that even if we die, our deaths shall not be in vain.

All over the world, there'll be a huge REVOLUTION by the Biafrans if Kanu dies! But we're still watching you, we're watching in Nigeria, we are also outside Nigeria watching whatever that's going on in that country! That's all am trying to tell you people, both the Igbos and southerners who were trying to assist the Northerners in order to get some peanuts from them. I didn't support the struggle of Biafra at this time because I know that South especially the Igbos don't love themselves. what have you achieved that will push you for a self leadership for us to have independence? what have you?

There’s probably nothing we have to govern ourselves and how can you govern yourselves when all you people are greedy people fighting and killing each other and being saboteurs! Look at what Joe Igbokwe was saying because of Fashola, he was just selling his people in order to obtain favour from him. That's Igbo for you! How can you succeed? America, Britain and the whole world knows this that you Igbos aren't cooperating as one people! That is the advantage of the Hausas and Yorubas because they know that they're not hardworking that's why our division is their advantage for them to succeed since they've succeeded in deceiving and dividing the whole south! The south is not cooperative that's what caused this Biafran struggle to be stagnant and still born! If you people were together, so long you'd have achieved this Biafra since the time of Ojukwu! Ojukwu tried but was sabotaged by some of the Igbos and the minority tribes there.

 Ukpabia Asika and some Ifeajunas were there showing the enemies the routes on how to get into Biafran land with so many others! Look at what is going on right now in Biafran land especially with the Igbos, they're killing themselves, look at what they are doing in Onitsha, Asaba, Aba, Port harcourt, destroying the properties of their own people, not only the Igbos, look at the Ijaws as well , I can recall that elections in Bayelsa and Rivers state some time ago turned out to be very bloody! Is this how you're going to govern yourselves??

THE WORLD IS WATCHING YOU! So better stop all this crap, let them just release this guy and let him go and set up because he can't actualize what he's fighting for! It's not possible for him to do so because he must first of all unite the Igbos and other tribes in Biafra before he can achieve his goal! Am beginning to become ashamed of being Igbo, I don't need to say this but am saying this so that justice will be given to that guy! Let them forgive that guy because he doesn't even know what's doing... He's not up to that. He is just a young guy trying to lavish his future for nothing, but one thing that made me happy is that he's not like Uwazurike that betrayed Biafran struggle under MASSOB and enriched himself and nobody cares to know about him anymore! I'll be so angry if anything happens to him. I wouldn't mind to die! because of whatever that might happen to him! Let this be an advise and also as a warning to the Nigerian people and those Igbos who're lingering about conniving with the Hausas destroying Igbos! WHATEVER YOU SOW YOU SHALL REAP! You Igbos who're going about in the secret selling their people! Lemme stop so far , but I still have a lot to tell you! Good day!".

From a concerned Igbo like you. 

BIAFRA: Open Letter to David J.Young deputy Chief of 

Mission U.S. Embassy: We want Biafra not Reconstruction.

                                              

David J.Young

Dear Mr. Ambassador, I’m writing this letter to you in your capacity as an official representative of the Obama Administration in Nigeria. It’s an important job, and a difficult one I understand. However I would like to address a few things as regards to your first visit to Bayelsa state on Wednesday, September 8, 2016.

Mr. Ambassador, while addressing the current situation in Bayelsa, you called for all stakeholders to dialogue as part of the process to arrive at equitable and fair solution for all involved. You also made mention of the need to improve and develop the oil spilled Regions in Bayelsa state. You further stated this and am quoting you: "We encourage Nigeria to establish conditions and mechanisms for lasting change over time and provide economic opportunities and services for Deltans. US provides assistance to the region, through maritime security training, aviation security, treatment and prevention of HIV/AIDS, good governance planning, agric system and a number of other activities. So we want to be your partner.”

Ambassador David Young, since it's your first visit to Bayelsa state, I will overlook your callowness on this issue. With all due respect Mr. Ambassador, we Biafrans no longer want the help of Nigeria nor the United States of America in the development of our lands. We are tired of your ostensible promises and dialogues in the recreation and reconstruction of our own very lands. Enough of the pretence and political policies that continue to favor only those benefiting from the oil wealth of our lands, you say US provides all kinds of assistance to help better the region and yet thousands of innocent children are dying every day in Bayelsa from infection and starvation as a result of the oil spillage caused by the same shareholders who don't care about the lives of those living in these regions instead they valve the millions of dollars coming out of Niger Delta over the well-being of those living there.

Mr. Ambassador, I know you must have noticed the outsized number of Nigeria troops now patrolling in Bayelsa when you visited the state. Am very sure you know why President Buhari stationed those soldiers there, obviously it's not for a peace talk or dialogue but for war. So tell me, Mr. Ambassador how do you expect Biafrans to sleep peacefully knowing that anytime soon they could be a casualty of an ongoing oil-war in their own lands. You say United States of America wants the best for my people (Biafrans) and they are willing to help in the development and reconstruction of the affected areas and regions, right? Well, that's good news if only we were willing to accept your help but we won't as long as it doesn't involve giving us Biafra.

Why not direct your message to President Buhari's adminstration who continue to kill innocent Biafrans in Nigeria. The Nigerian military have already commence their mission in Bayelsa by harassing and killing innocent civilians in Niger Delta, all in the charades of fighting Militants in the region. Buhari's government has targeted Biafrans and Christians in Nigeria, by freezing their right as a people and effectively paralyzing them. We have had enough and we have expressed our crave for a sovereign state of Biafra. That's all we want now, that's all we are fighting for. Biafra!

The people of Bayelsa want Biafra, not reconstruction and we humbly request that you as an Ambassador of the United States of America do endeavor to pass our message across to the United States President, Barack Obama. We the Indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB) are alarmed by the deteriorating human rights situation in Nigeria under General Muhammadu Buhari's government. Arrests and detentions of Biafrans, oppressive behavior towards civil society and freedom of expression/speech, religious cleansing, and harassment of opposition figures have multiplied since Buhari became president. So you see Ambassador Young, what the people of Bayelsa needs is freedom to govern themselves and develop their own lands and what Nigeria needs is separation.Human rights organizations and Amnesty International have already called for the immediate and unconditional release of the leader of the Indigenous people of Biafra,Nnamdi Kanu and also other Biafrans who are still held captive, but such calls have not been heeded by the government of Muhammadu Buhari, which persists in a targeted campaign against Biafrans.

The federal government of Nigeria cannot be both a respected member of the United Nations Charter and a repressive, kleptocratic autocracy. It must choose. We the Indigenous people of Biafra, urge you Ambassador David young and the United States of America to see to it that Biafrans get fair justice and freedom to self-determination.

Yours sincerely,

Okonkwo Isaac Somto

IN TEARS I WRITE THIS LETTER 

TO THE WORLD

TITLE: ARE THE BIAFRANS NOT HUMAN BEINGS LIKE OTHERS??

By RBLN.
The Leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Mazi Nnamdị Kanụ will be appearing in the Federal High Court of the Zoo Nigeria on 1st of December...

We the Biafrans will stand shoulder to shoulder to him on that day, if you can’t be there on that day, pray wherever you are for this victory...

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is an Innocent, fearless, intelligent, gifted and brave man whom only wanted freedom for his people in slavery in the hands of tyrant and evil Government of Zoo Country Nigeria.

But what did the Zoo Nigeria Government do to show the world how barbaric, cruel, evil,intimidating the Nigeria Government can be to the people. The kidnapped him at the Nigeria Airport on his way back to Nigeria to visit his parents.They put him into prison for more than one whole year without trial and the World Government, media houses lovers of freedom around the glob, is silent about this inhuman act by the tyrant Nigeria Government...

The man who is also a citizen of the Grear Britain, But the British Government Chooses to leave him languishing in the Nigeria prison, just to keep the business of milking the crude oil in the Biafra Land where this Great Leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu comes from with the help of the Tyrant Nigeria Government...

This Nigeria Government that killed over 3.5 millions innocent Children, women and men in 1967-70 that want their freedom, they were brutally killed with the help of British Government that supplied them with weapons to kill Biafrans,just for the sake of milking crude oil that comes from the Biafra land.. and the United Nation, ICC, HRW and others are still silent about this deaths’ but indeed the death of all this milliond of Biafrans is still not yet enough for the Nigeria Government to let them go as they wished’ just not less than 2 years they arrest the Leader of Biafra (IPOB) Mazi Nnamdi Kanu the innocent unarmed men and women that where peacefully protesting for his release were brutally killed by the Nigeria security forces in their thousands by the order of the tyrant Nigeria President Mohammadu Buhari, Why?

In order to continue milking the crude oil that comes from the Biafra land, and the world Government, UN, HRW, ICC and the world median houses are still silent just because the Nigeria Government bribed them all with Billion of Dollars to keep their mouth Short and not to bring the matter up to hearing of the world...... For the whole world not to know the war crime been committed against the people of Biafra on a daily basis by the tyrant Nigeria Government. But my humble question now is...

Are the Biafrans not human being like other around the world?

Are they not free to enjoy their God giving human Right of freedom? What are their crimes? Why is the World against them? Is their killings bring joy to the World? When will the world powers, American President, The UN and the rest stand up and defend their right against the tyrant Government of Nigeria? When will the United Nation grant them their freedom???
