Those who follow the begining and spread of terrorism in Nigeria will remember that it started under the second term of President Obasanjo.The first leader and founder of Boko Haram was Mohammed Yusuf. He established the group in 2002 and led it until his death in 2009 during the Boko Haram uprising. After his death, Abubakar Shekau became the leader of the group.

Nigeria since 1970 has continued in prosecution of war against Ndigbo, the Biafrans. If Nigerian Army and Police can deploy the dexterity they have shown, in seeking out Biafrans, killing, and arresting them in their so called fight against terrorism,in the Southeast of Nigeria,the killings we see today accross Nigeria would have been curtailed and contained. The great coordination of power and diplomacy, albeit peddling wrong narratives against Igbo freedom agitators in the persons of Nnamdi Kanu and Simon Ekpa shows that if Nigeria desires, they have all it takes to stop terrorism. Like Jews during their exodus from the Egyptian Bondage, Igbos are, in the main, sabotaging their freedom, to the dissapppointment of God who has specifically spoken in diverse manners and methods that He approved Biafra long time ago. In August 2021, God spoke clearly that Igbo land will witness a gale of blood shed wind. He also confirmed that Nnamdi Kanu is His Battle Axe; That Nnamdi Kanu shall step on the graves of all who have done evil to him,as God sees their activities as against him God.

As I continued to seek his face regarding Nigeria, because I love Nigeria and my love for Nigeria was so much that all my Children bear Yoruba Names. I attended two Yourba Universities and most of my friends are yorubas from University of Ife and University of Lagos respectively. My lovely grand kids are Yorubas. I have a bond with Yorubas that is generationally eternal! Yorubas on their part have through ungodly competition with and against Igbos brought the cup of God’s Wrath upon themselves and Islam in Yoruba Land has done more harm to them, than good. Inspite of being the commercial Headquarters of Nigeria, with the biggest Airports, Two Huge Seaports, Financial Headquarters of Nigeria still have extreme poverty. Yet their Spiritual Leaders hate Igbos with passion, based on wrong totally irresponsible narratives, that Igbos were cursed by Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa. Shameless pulpit mercantile political preachers!

May The Hand of Almighty God be upon Justice Omotosho to write his name in Gold eternally, by delivering Justice and nothing but Justice in Nnamdi Kanu’s Case. God is keenly interested, and is watching.

It is clear that Britain as shown in the video clip below is and has remained the strongest backbone enemy to Igbos in Nigeria. This is because they fear the confidence and audacity of Igbos. They used hunger to defeat Igbos by creating and weaponizing poverty. Today, Islam is weaponizing hunger against Nigerians from Borno, Plateau, Niger, Katsina, Kaduna, Taraba, Nassarawa, Kogi, Benue, Enugu, Edo, Oyo, Ondo, Ekiti,Imo, Abia,Anambra, Ebonyi to Kwara State. 19 of the 52 States of Nigeria are in distress resulting from terrorism. Britain must be happy the way their estate Nigetia is gradually falling apart.

Benue offered a lot more by killing so much Igbos during the 1966-1970 Genocidal War against Biafra. At the war fronts those days of the war, we referred to them, Tivs, Idomas Jukuns etc,as “GWODO-GWODO ” due to their share huge and well fed sizes. They maimed Igbo men and rapped Igbo Women like rapping was going out of this earth. I personally loathed them as a child soldier. Somehow many of them still habour hatred for Igbos till date, and that is absolutely not necessary, as Igbos have come to understand that GWODO-GWODOs were used and now dumped by Fulani-Yoruba Muslim-Muslim ticket.

A Servant who watched his master dig the grave of another demised Servant with the garden hoe, should never think that their master will hire a bulldozer to dig his own grave. Benue State looked away as Nigerian Military killed and bombed villages in Igbo land, but Igbos must not fall into same spiritual trap.

Igbos now know more and better. Igbos need to join Benue in the resistance to organized terrorism under this time and age. Igbos must unanimously subscribe to the training of Local Vigilantes and Hunting Groups to protect and defend sections, of their societies going foward.

It’s obvious that Nigerian Army is overstretched, and completely overwhelmed by the enormity of the challenge of security with a hell of insider saboteurs in very high places.

Till date, not one of the perpetrators of the recent killings in Benue has been arrested, Ehamufu, and Ukpabi Nimbo victims are not compensated and Enugu Governor is not paying attention. He perhaps was too young to remember that The 1966-1970 War Started from Enugu State. Major Chukwuma Ngeogu,one of the greatest heroes of Biafra was killed in Enugu State. The first killing by Miyetti Allah was in 2014 April, in Ukpabi Nimbo, Enugu State. The desecration of Igbo land as a whole by Fulanis was in Enugu state.

Igbo leaders must gather themselves now and plan how to protect and defend all nooks and croonnies of Enugu State now as the weak spot of Igbo land. It will be turn of Enugu State after Benue State.

It’s a war that is being crafted under the watch of this Yoruba- Fulani Muslim-Muslim Government. From Enugu State these terrorists can flank easily into Ebonyi, Abia, Imo and Anambra and Igboland will be in deep trouble.

A stitch In Time Saves Nine. Ndigbo needs to remove this hand of the Monkey in Our Soup, before it becomes human hand. Ndigbo needs to share in the pain of Benue State and be Part of any long term solution. Igbo Traditional Rulers should pay a condolence visit to TorTiv asap. Ohaneze Ndigbo should Also visit the Pan-Tiv Organisation, While Igbo Pastors and Bishops should pay condolence visit to the Governor of Benue State who is also a Reverend Gentleman. Let’s get our acts together now to avoid any regrets later.
