THE UNGRATEFUL NATURE OF A BLACK
MAN
OTHER TRIBES IN NIGERIA PRECISELY.
BY EMEKA NWABIAFRA CHUKWU
Yesterday, I had a chat with a
British political pundit, Mr. Jones, a 30 years old man from Birmingham. During
the course of our colloquy, I had to ask him questions concerning Britain and
her role in Nigeria politics.
It went this way..
ME= Mr. Jones, why is Britain
belligerent to BIAFRA and being complicit to our plights?
In response, there are his words.
Jones= Emeka my good friend,
without mincing words, I think from the information I got that it was a Biafran
person, an Igbo man that carried out the revolution which saw Britain off
Nigeria.
The British leaders up to this
day are not happy with you guys, reasons that the British colonists were
controlling every mineral resources in Nigeria free before Nnamdi Azikiwe
instigated that revolution. This one major reason they are belligerent to u
guys and are ready to go to any point to stop your guys from being independent.
Emeka don't forget also that 60%
of Britain's income comes from Nigeria's oil and gas.
So Emeka that's where the hatred
started. Though I am a British, I'll tell u one thing, I am totally against the
indirect rule going on in Nigeria which BIAFRA and Igbo people are the victims.
You niggas deserves freedom.
I blamed the other tribes in
Nigeria, they are too blind. They are not cognitive to the fact that the
independent of BIAFRA would bring civilization and transformations in the whole
of Africa.
You guys should be strong and
continue your agitation, I wish u niggas well. God shall grant u niggas ur
request which is freedom..
Pulse a little bit
Take a deep breath
I guess u are retrospecting on these words from Jones?

At these point, let me quickly
recaps some of the histories of Nnamdi Azikiwe.
Nnamdi Azikiwe was born in
Zungeru in the northern part of Nigeria in the near 1904, precisely November
16th.He attended his primary and secondary school in Onitsha, Calabar and Lagos
respectively.
By 1925, he went to the United
States of America where he attended storer college, Howard and Lincoln
universities where he studied political science and bagged several doctorate
degrees. He later in 1934 taught political science as a lecturer in same
Lincoln University.
By 1937 he came back to Ghana
were he got job as an editor in the African Morning post, a daily news paper in
Accra Ghana. He was also a pan africanist. He began to use his office to spread
the message concerning the need for Nigeria independent.
In 1942-1945 he joined NCNC party
where he later became the leader of the political party. By 1945, his news
papers had flooded the south West and other parts in Nigeria in the massive
orientation of the masses concerning Nigeria independent..
Later in 1960 Nigeria officially
got her independent from Britain. And this independent is as a result of Nnamdi
Azikiwe's efforts, struggle and resources. He was the major player in the
struggle for NIGERIA independent.
Questions that I keep asking
myself are these;:
Why are other tribes in Nigeria
still against igbo people?
Why are we seen as second class citizens in the same country somebody from our region single handedly fought for her independent?
Why are we the victims of the system?
When the northerners goes on killing spree, it's always the head of ndi igbo that usually go down. Why?
The same east that her son fought for Nigeria independent lost 5m innocent souls during the genocide called war. Why?
Why are the other tribes ungrateful to NdiIGBO for our efforts to the liberation of NIGERIA from Britain?

I still need an answers to these
questions..
In Nigeria today, almost all the
good things and names Nigeria has internationally are as a result of the
efforts of ndi igbo..
In sports, you have the likes of
JJ okocha, Kanu Nwankwo and so many others.
In education, the likes of late
Chinua Achebe, Chile Obi, chimamanda and so many others have brought good name
to this country internationally via their God's given knowledge.
In business, Igbos are the
bedrocks of Nigeria. Go to Lagos and Kano etc. U will see how Igbos are
developing these areas not minding that it's not their region.
But in all these efforts of ndi
igbo in this fraudulent called Nigeria,the other tribes have always wants us to
live in backwardness and sorrow as a result of hatred.
In same Nigeria an igbo man
fought for, we have
No international airport since over 58 years now
No workable sea port
No dry port
No security headquarters
All our federal roads are death traps
Lopsided appointment
No inclusion of an Igbo man in the Nigeria security council
We still buy petrol #250/ltr where as the oil is in our backyards.
In the house representative, igbo have just 43 members out of the 360 members. No motion raised by an Igbo man can ever pass first reading.
Igbo youths are being killed on a broad day light for protesting against marginalization
In the Senate, igbo have just 15 senators out of the 109.
Igbo man totally does not have a say in Nigeria political system today.
The leaders we have here are all political vassals. They are answerable to the Sokoto caliphate. Even when their people are being killed by Nigeria soldiers, they can't condemn it reasons being that the north is in support of it.
These were actually the fate of ndi Igbo today in Nigeria
All these marginalizations are the Thank you message we got from the other tribes in Nigeria for fighting for the independent of Nigeria.

All these marginalizations are the Thank you message we got from the other tribes in Nigeria for fighting for the independent of Nigeria.
British colonists used the north
to gain political and economic control of the other tribes in Nigeria and it
worked pretty well because of the lack of education in the north. The
northerners are happy for killing same people that fought for the independent
of Nigeria as a result of British conspiracies.
That is the paradox of a black
man. We are ready to kill fellow Black to please the white
In conclusion to this article, my
message to the other tribes in Nigeria are these;
We are not going to take it anymore
We have chosen to opt out from Nigeria because the system itself had brought us humiliation, sorrow, deaths and impoverishments and we can't continue to live this way.
We can't continue to use our blood to appease Nigeria
Wole Soyinka in his quote in 1969 said that “WHEN A PEOPLE ARE SUBJECTED TO GENOCIDE AND OPPRESSION, THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO ANSWER A NAME OTHER THAN THAT OF THEIR OPPRESSORS".
FOR over 58 years now, we have being subjected to
Marginalization
Genocide
Carnage
Oppression
Injustice
Killings
And we have decided to answer a name other than Nigeria and that name is BIAFRA.
BIAFRA THIS TIME AROUND MUST BE FREE CUX WE ARE TIRED OF NIGERIA..
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
