Biafra Is Not Nigeria

Biafra Is Not Nigeria - Ahmed Nabil

BY AHMED NABIL

You are part of the pluto jokers if Biafra, as far as you are concerned, is Nigeria and not nowhere. If it is a county close to Britain, Ireland or USA with its own local government, or a republic, or a continents not part of the seven continents, I believe something common like anthem, leaders and competition as a nation is important and necessary conditions must be attached. But still, no king or queen, president or governor, prime minister or ministers mentioned as a global figure, can the biafrans identify. It is somehow a complete fiction that no reasonable skull will accept.

Biafrans, ofcourse, are not just traitors, but a strong quake and tragedy that is againsts justice that should be handled without mercy, as treason is a monstrous crime all reasonable Leaders and citizens must fight against. A general campaign to create awareness on the devastating effect of it againsts humanity, strict and unequivocal official pronouncement on the desirability to bring it under country would be helpful. Freedom of speech is not the same as treason.

It is essential for everyone to play his part, but extreme nationalism without selflessness is the same as nothing. "When your sandals get out of order, your style of walking changes", a proverb. Likewise, without that spirit of unity , sentiments will overcome us.

Nigeria is too big for the too big to deceive. This was a major paradigm shift. Constitutionally, we can't have two country in one country, yes, anything opposite, is treason, and the victims must face the law. It is very sad that the greatest detriment to many people's success today, is their thinking yesterday. That voice of sentiments, ethnicity, self-interests and indulgence sucked many people's conscience pale that they can't perceive the truth of the matter.

Sadly, corruption for some is fashion. Impunity for some is immunity. We must solve this, yes, as "he who conceals his disease can never be cured".

An N2.4 million bribery scam is rocking the Delta State House of Assembly. SaharaReporters learned that the Speaker, Monday Igbuya, and other members of the State House of Assembly allegedly collected N200,000 bribes from the twelve commissioner nominees forwarded by Governor Ifeanyi Okowa for “screening.” Confiding in a SaharaReporters correspondent, a senior management staff person of the State’s House of Assembly who did not want to be named disclosed that one of the commissioner nominees told him in confidence how the twelve nominees’ arms were twisted to pay N200,000 each. The ultimatum was that without the N200,000 none of them would be cleared by the lawmakers. However, the source said, “If you were around during their screening on the floor of the House, you would have noticed that all the nominees were only told to take a bow” and to go. An aide to one of the commissioners who pleaded anonymity confided in SaharaReporters that the money was definitively give...

BUHARI: TURNING APPOINTMENTS INTO DISAPPOINTMENTS

By Jaafar Jaafar Ponder over this Hausa proverb: “sawun keke ba’a gane gabanka”, which roughly translates to “a bicycle’s contact patch does not tell where it comes from or where it heads to”, and see how it aptly describes Nigeria’s president, Muhammadu Buhari. Bearing in mind the current realities in our polity, how would you, in your wildest dream, think the Secretary to the Government of the Federation will come from the North? The very North that has a President, a Senate President, a Speaker, a Head of Service, a Chief of Staff, a Chief Justice, and what not? While Mr. President is likened to the proverbial “sawun keke”, the pigmentation of his appointments may be likened to “birgimar hankaka”, literally meaning the wallow of a pied crow. When a pied crow wallows, the Hausa say, you will see both the white patch on its gullet and the black plumage that covers most of the bird’s body. In the appointment of the GMD of NNPC, President Buhari showed Nigeria...
