Idiotic Reasons Why Nnamdi Ebo Thinks Biafra Will Be A Disaster


Writing in Thisday on Tuesday September 12, 2017, in an opinion entitled, “The Aftermath Of A New Biafra”, Nnamdi Ebo wrote, “If anybody thinks that the Igbo have trouble in Nigeria now, wait and see trouble in the new Biafra. No Anambra man will let an Enugu man be president, no Imo man will let an Abia man or Ebonyi man be president, No Southwest Igbo ‘Ijekeebe’ will allow a North East Igbo ‘Wawa’ to become to become president”.
You are then forced to ask how did Ndigbo at various times made Dr Michael Okpara (present day Abia State) premier of Eastern Region? ; Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe (present day, Anambra State) as Premier of Eastern Region; Dr Akanu Ibiam (present day Ebonyi State) Governor of Eastern Region? How did Ndigbo in general agreed in one voice for General Emeka Odumegwu Ojukwu to be their head of state for three solid years while the Biafra lasted?
That is how they sold the lie that the Igbo are never united. Yet the Igbo in one voice voted for Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe to be president in 1979 under NPP. They did similar thing in 1983 with massive votes for Zik, even though the election was massively rigged by the ruling NPN. The Igbo in 2011 and 2015 massively gave all their votes to an Ijaw, Dr Goodluck Jonathan and if that is not unity I don’t know what is. Only recently one Nnamdi Kanu told Ndigbo to sit at home to commemorate millions of Ndigbo killed in the Nigerian civil war and they obeyed him, while those who claim that Ndigbo can never unite for one cause started ‘shitting on their pants’ and starting plotting more devilish ways to kill the peaceful agitators.
Recall that after massively voting for Jonathan in 2015 and he lost, those who claimed that Ndigbo can never be united turned a spin into it. They were no longer saying that Igbo can never be united, but rather that Ndigbo are not ‘politically mature,’ that they put all their eggs in one basket. They use this explanation to justify the exclusion of Ndigbo in the government of Nigeria presently.
In conclusion those of us who support ONE NIGERIA should give more plausible reasons why that is the best option than division. We must not do it to ridicule those who do not share our views. NIGERIA SHALL BE GREAT AGAIN!
