As the Jews did , after the Holocaust, in view of the oppressive and repressive ethnic haters and racists from other parts, who out of envy, hatred, ignorance and bad faith, chose to hurt the feelings of the Igbos and undermine their interests to participate in political and economic life of the country, which no person has or group of individuals have the power to determine, except God Almighty.
The Igbos have had enough and are unwilling to continue to accept the dirty tricks and politics of Nigeria at their own expense and detriment.
A people whose economic resilience and political determination are sustainable, natural endowments and military experiences are insuperable, deserve respect from their hosts out of traditional courtesy and goodwill, instead of being annihilated as being seen today.
One thing is certain, the political and economic destiny of the Igbos, lies in the hands of God, Who will in no distant time, determine the political future of Nigeria, beyond everyone’s comprehension.
Nothing will derail God’s promise to His people. The more the Igbos are hounded, oppressed, hated, despised denounced, robbed of their legitimate right to freedom, compete and rule, the more progressive, they become.
It’s better to stop rubbing shoulders with a people divinely endowed to be respected in the world.
Abraham Blessings are meant for the Igbos, at the time God entered into Covenant with him. God made it clear, that those who blesses us, He would bless and those who curses us, will be cursed, which’s why those looking for the trouble of the Igbo people should beware or find themselves having trouble with God, the Maker and Creator of all things there’s.
The Igbos are destined to survive, irrespective of all the obstacles placed before them.
Those fighting against the Igbos are unpatriotic elements, who badly need proper orientation and rehabilitation, before their futile efforts pale in insignificance and eternal perdition.
You can imagine the speed with which Igboland will be transformed, once the Igbos become formidably organized towards impeccable leadership and aggressive development of Igboland.
There’s nothing wrong having the rest of Nigeria and the world come to Igboland for their business needs, after the Igbos pull their businesses to Igboland.
Nigerians understand the reality of this fact, when the Igbos, close businesses across the country and observe a sit at home order. Nigeria stands still for the Igbos, a people whose values and principles, no one can trifle with, no matter the circumstances.
While the Igbos may not abandon Nigeria, they will not sit on the fence and allow others determine their fate in the scheme of things in Nigeria.
There’s no gain saying the fact that, the spirit of Biafra is more alive in Igbos, after recognizing and recounting their ordeals and travails in the contemporary Nigerian Society, and there’s no way the Biafra Spirit will be suppressed and made to die, as long as the Igbos are not integrated in the political mainstream of Nigeria.
No ethnic group has monopoly of the ownership of Nigeria or has any lawful right to subject others to its whims and caprices and deny them political and economic privileges contrary to the Constitution and the laws of Nigeria. No major ethnic group has the power to lay claim to perpetual power control of the country, to the detriment of others or treat others as inconsequential in an undemocratic manner, aimed at defeating the Constitutional Principles of Federal Character and Separation of Powers in the even distribution of Powers of Government of the Federation.
If the ethnic partners in the Nigerian Union continue to exist in complete distrust of each other and are unable to work together for the greater good of all Nigerians, its hard time the nation’s Constitution and ex-post facto laws are reviewed, Federal Question resolved by restructuring the Federation and an acceptable power sharing formula adopted in the interest of peace, national unity, justice, equity and fairness.
What easily leads to conflicts and wars, are injustices, abuses and ethnic disputes and tensions arising from holding others to ransom.
Those wanting the Igbos out of their geographical and geopolitical zones, without making adequate concessions and compensations therefrom, after the Igbos developed the whole places, are stirring the hornets nest and making the worst mistakes of their lives.
They are pursuing an impossible agenda, without making alternative arrangements for their unpatriotic, haphazard politically motivated plot to silence the Igbos, without weighing the extenuating circumstances and consequences of their ill-advised actions.
Their inability to underscore the dire political and economic consequences of their ethnic moves, demographic changes in politics and the cosmopolitan, complex nature of our nation, smacks of inadvertent act of lawlessness and derangement, in pursuing an ethnic agenda that will inexorably be counterproductive.
Without the Igbos, there will be no Nigeria , irrespective of the status of our nation’s political leadership and democratic institutions existing within a broken system, crying for a leadership with the vision of a Clairvoyant, Courage of Achilles, Competence and Capacity, to make Nigeria greater again.
Every Igbo man, woman and child and citizen, has a duty to be, think and live with the Igbo spirit of heading back to Igboland to develop and build it as among the Wonders of the World, better than Satellite Structures they built at different locations in Nigeria and around the world.
Western Nations and African Governments know the dexterity and ingenuity of the people of the Igbo Nation and accord them respects as top competing Human Resources in the world, but past administrations of the government of Nigeria, disregard the importance of Ndigbo in the development of our nation, without commensurate interests in the development of Igboland.
Having been pushed to the brink of thinking twice and take their destiny in their own hands, the Igbos must search for a credible umbrella organization with unassailable political leadership and legitimacy, that would unite all Igbos in Nigeria and around the world, not the like of umbrella organizations like Ohaneze, without respectful strong political voice, but as the Jews stand together today, with no economic force competing with them throughout the world.
The Igbos are black Jews with the Midas Touch to hold the economic power, without being selfish to themselves.
The Igbos cannot abandon Nigeria to anyone, of which they are largely part of, rather, they should adopt the achievement mentality, realizing that charity begins at home and recognize themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the political leadership of Nigeria, irrespective of the negative way, they are wrongly viewed by political opportunists, who delight in sowing insidious seeds of ethnic discord in the country, for their selfish political agenda and not for the good of the country, ethnic minorities and nationalities that make up Nigeria.
Anyone, who thought that he or they could uproot the Igbos from where they are entrenched for decades of business in Nigeria, must be daydreaming and living in a fool’s paradise.
The people of the South East of Nigeria, are institutions, destined for national and global exploits in accordance with God’s promises to Abraham’s descendants.
What are seen today are legendary, Covenant Blessings, beyond human understanding and comprehension.
The youths of Igboland to whom the future belongs, should carve a niche for themselves with a view to rediscovering themselves and redirecting their vital energies, aptitudes and ingenuity, towards the overall development of Igboland, notwithstanding the past oversight of their parents and elders in finding comfort in the development of other areas on earth, neglecting their traditional homeland.
We should not discouraged by intimidating our numerical strength or wonder whether Igboland can accommodate us if we all return to Igboland.
Let’s follow the shining example of our brethren Israeli Jews and do exactly what they did after the Holocaust and leave the rest to God Almighty.
*IGBOLAND IS OURS ONLY, LET’S QUICKLY HEAD BACK HOME, INDUSTRIALIZE AND DEVELOP OUR HOMELAND TO THE JOY OF POSTERITY AND THE GREATER GLORY OF GOD.
IGBO - KWENU! KWENU !!KWEZUONU !!!
May CHUKWU OKIKE ABIAMA BE OUR GOD AND ARROW HEAD IN THE FUTURE CHOICE WE MAKE AND THE DISCOVERY OF OUR TRADITIONAL DESTINY.🙏
INSPIRED MESSAGE FROM ABOVE TO ALL IGBO CITIZENS IN NIGERIA AND AROUND THE WORLD
