The Freedom of IPOB Leader Citizen Nnamdi Kanu is not negotiable to his followers, and his prolonged incarceration is a time bomb ready to explode in an instant. Hitting a Child with sharp objects and interdicting him not to cry is one impossible task on which anyone can embark.
“Nwaanyi muta ite ofe mmiri mmiri, di ya amuta ipi utara aka were suru ofe (If a woman decides to make the soup watery, the husband will learn to dent the Garri before dipping it into the soup)”.
The Southeastern politicians, their counterparts in Nigeria, are arrogantly and pretentiously ignoring the causative agent of crisis in the region.
Before you effectively treat an ailment, you attack the symptoms and the microorganism responsible for that particular infection that advanced into a disease.
Medically and in layman terms, if one is diagnosed with Typhoid Fever, you don’t prescribe only Paracetamol and expect the inhibition of bacteria growth, with a flush out of the system.
Antibiotics must be introduced into the system, depending on Salmonella typhi, the bacteria(causative agent) for Typhoid.
Before the emergence of ESN, IPOB was tagged Toothless Bulldogs,
Facebook freedom fighters, Noisemakers with zero actions.
The Question Is, What Changed?
Peaceful IPOB Got Outlawed And Proscribed, By Old Eastern Governors
There were incessant brutal extrajudicial killings of IPOB activists while conducting peaceful rallies, evangelism and gatherings.
The invitation of python dance by Old Eastern Governors and its execution left the Indigenous people enraged and incandescent.
An assassination attempt on IPOB Leader was effectuated in his residence, living scores dead with indemnity, few days after Northern politicians affirmed to bring war, to his doorstep, unprovoked.
The cabals threatened brimstone after a failed assassination attempt on Nnamdi Kanu. As a result, Kanu was forced into exile, tagged a fugitive and prohibited from burying his parents, who died from shock due to the sinful incident.
IPOB activists were kidnapped, dumped in Borrow pits, survivals charged for Terrorism and Treason, to the amusement of the Nigeria Government.
While IPOB sued for Peace obtainable through freedom of agitation, the Governors authorized the invasion of Indigenous Lands by World categorized Killer Fulani Terrorists and Bandits.
Rape cases were recorded, Beheading of Farmers, Abduction of Young Ladies, Destruction of Farm products and other heinous crimes, with utter derision.
STAY WITH ME!
*What Licit Measures Was Taken, By The People?
One ignorant of these heart-piercing incidents would ask, what IPOB did, to peacefully curtail the excesses of the Government and legally demand aid from International communities to conduct a referendum.
Well, that is one of the rationales for this piece.
IPOB applied various Civil strategies, mistaken for gutless Mouth warming by foes.
If you are in doubt, check out her actions;
-IPOB protested at various Nigeria Embassies, demanding freedom.
-IPOB activists wrote to the United Nations, seeking a UN observed referendum on self-determination.
-IPOB and supporters strictly adhered to Sit At Home order by her leadership.
-IPOB petitioned Nigeria at International Criminal Court for Extrajudicious killings and Unlawful incarceration.
-IPOB demanded proper investigations by renowned human rights organizations, like Amnesty International etc. As a result, forensic investigations were conducted and published.
-UN rapporteur visited the South-East region and reported the human rights violations against IPOB activists.
-IPOB wrote to AU, demanding the authorization of Self Determination rights.
In conjunction with several civil and legal steps, that can not be overemphasized.
Why Was The Dragon Flag Hoisted?
The Flag of Defence, not Offence that changed the narrative into Peace or Pieces, was hoisted after 20th October 2020, following the End SARS killings and abductions, by IPOB Leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
Herdsmen killings in the Old Eastern region got minimized,
Mothers can peacefully go to their Farmlands with the assurance of security.
The political cabals got infuriated, and despite
Banditry, Bokoharam insurgency, Poverty, Bad Roads, Poor standard of education, Poor Health care service and a host of problems in Nigeria, IPOB Leader got singled out for elimination. Citizen Nnamdi Kanu was extraordinarily renditioned in collaboration with the Kenya Government.
He was dehumanized, smeared with his waste products, sedated to Nigeria and denied
good access to proper medical care.
Will Agitators Disdain It?
The fact is, even None IPOB activists have taken the mantle of liberation to combat subjugation, marginalization, deprivation and human rights infringement.
Much as the people remain peaceful in their agitation, they don’t intend to bow down to threats and intimidation.
Nigeria has lost her dignity, and I’m convinced, illicit
Kidnapping and incarceration is not the remedy to the hammer of justice hitting the Country now.
What Is The Solution To Nigeria’s Destruction?
The unrest leading to ‘no election’ declaration in South-East, Banning of Nigeria Flags in the region, Implementation of ‘no open grazing’, ‘a stop to extrajudicial killings, ‘illicit abductions and incarceration of IPOB leader’, measures, one will be convinced, must be ardently executed by the Indigenous People, hence won’t be halted anytime soon.
According to IPOB Leadership, the solution is the release of her Leader Citizen Nnamdi Kanu, and the UN observed the Biafra referendum.
Despite being disdained by the Government, the evidential proof that the Country’s economy is rubbished, Her honour and glory dashed into the mud, is glaring.
The determination in achieving her civil aim,
is beyond shootings and abductions by security agents.
The ideology and execution of self-determination right by agitators can not be dimmed.
The Indigenous people have declared Peace if their demands are met or Pieces, when ignored, hence he who has ears should hear and adhere to the people’s voice.
