About eight months ago, some Igbo social media and political activists invited me inbox to discuss the way forward for Ndigbo. I will copy and paste my contributions to that meeting:
“I have personally moved on from nice guy to “say it as it is” in my analysis of Nigerian issues. What I will never do is publicly insult any one Igbo person. However, I will continue to abuse Igbo efulefus generally.”
“Finally, the only Igbo project in my radar now is a call for referendum. I am not saying it will work out fine. But it will rally Igbo and rattle Nigeria. We have not engaged Nigeria in an intellectual debate/dispute on an international platform. Even Radio Biafra is all noise, good noise, anyway. But any formal process as was done by South Sudan will rattle them. I have done a whole bunch of research on this.”
“If we do it right, we take the Republican Party playbook and have definite issues which Igbo politicians must sign on or face our social media onslaught and grass roots loss of support. We have to be radical and include supporting a South Sudan option referendum. As I said before, that is the only language Nigeria will hear. Anybody who thinks the North will accept to restructure Nigeria unless the territorial integrity is threatened is joking.”
Please note that these were my words. After I wrote this, the meeting ended. Three months later, someone activated the discussion and I wrote:
“Personally, I am tired of Igbo politicians and their half-baked advisers who will pick your brain and use it to create inefficient products.”
“We have all been doing this for free with limited results. I am into Information Technology and I know who is winning the propaganda war. How many pro-Igbo articles/News have you seen on Washington Post or New York Times. Even on Huffington Post? Of course, we know that the Fulani owns BBC.”
Recall exactly what I said when this thread was first raised in August. I will copy it and paste here:
“If we do it right, we take the Republican Party playbook and have definite issues which Igbo politicians must sign on or face our social media onslaught and grass roots loss of support. We have to be radical and include supporting a South Sudan option referendum. As I said before, that is the only language Nigeria will hear. Anybody who thinks the North will accept to restructure Nigeria unless the territorial integrity is threatened is joking.”
“AFTER I wrote that, there was no response for two months – Sept and Oct. Now we are in Nov.”
“Igbo politicians are cowards. This is the time do to Buhari what Tinubu did to OBJ – ignore him and build up our economy with whatever we could get from the center.”
“On the PR, we need PR to let our people know whom they are and what they can do. We also need PR to put our Igbo issues in the front burner globally.”
I will stop here.
Again, these were my words. They were shared in a confidential but not privileged circumstances. I have not mentioned the names of those who were present. This post may likely refresh their recollection.
Today, Wednesday April 27, 2016, I still maintain that Igbo politicians are supremely SELFISH COWARDS. I pity those who are calling for the boycott of cow meat. That shows how bereft of ideas some people are. We have elected leaders and now is the time for them to earn their pay. The blood of any Igbo who dies in the hands of the Nigerian security forces and Fulani herdsmen is on their heads.
Of course, if I am arrested today, none of them will care.
