How Buhari And APC Turned Southeast To Gaza Warzone by franchasofficia: 11:39am On Aug 22 |
Let me begin with this quote: Mindless bloodletting is the worst crime any nation should condone. Nigeria is looking like a genocidal war zone. Shockingly most people are not bothered. Innocent blood spillage on a daily basis without justice will eventually sink any nation. That's exactly where this country is headed. Joel 3:19 KJV "Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land." As part of my personal research on how Nigeria has remained underdeveloped and every incoming President of Nigeria becomes worst than the previous one and I came to realize that Nigeria as a country is under a supernatural curse. Many Nigerians will not understand the situation of Nigeria until they remove tribal sentiments and when they eventually travel outside Nigeria to countries like Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, etc. Make no doubt, Nigeria's leadership problem that have led to complete collapse of our national security, economy and global reputation is beyond the physical, it has a spiritual undertone even though many woke-forming Nigerians won't admit this obvious truth. Years of bloodshed, massacre, brutal killing and extrajudicial killings of innocent Nigerians have negatively altered the direction of Nigeria, and unfortunately the senseless Presidents Nigeria have been having failed to address these daunting issues of unjust killings, extrajudicial killings by uniformed men, religious extremism killings of vulnerable people whose bloods cry to heavens and also awakens the earthly demons to feast on Nigeria as a fertile ground for their demonic operations. Imagine how many innocent Christians that have been persecuted and massacred in Northern Nigeria to the joy of most Muslims who see it as a form of supremacy showoff to Christians, the thousands if not millions of youths murdered in cold bloods in different parts of Nigeria with the government doing nothing to avenge their deaths or appease their spirits that were brutally forced out of planet earth, or the atrocities committed between 1966 to 1976 in Nigeria in the name of coup, counter coups, pogrom, civil war. You may be thinking that more of this have happened other countries that later became developed today, but guess the difference? Those country leaders and even citizens that perpetrated those evil later repented and realized their mistakes and made committed efforts to appease those whose relatives or regions were victims. Example is Rwanda, Germany, Russia, United States, Japan, South Africa and so many other countries. But in Nigeria's case, the Nigerians that perpetrated various evils against others haven't accepted their fault instead they give reasons why they did whatever evil they did against others, while some use it as a threat to silence those that were maltreated or marginalized in the past, and where this becomes worst is that the political leaders who are supposed to lead us to a new direction of love, forgiveness, reconciliation and complete embracing of one another chose to use our ethno-religious division and fault lines to champion their political agendas and plunder our commonwealth in the process while the majority of Nigerians who lack both spiritual and scientific understanding of how to build a truly progressive nation cheer them on. Okay, enough of that, let's now dive into the main topic; how Buhari and APC destabilized and destroyed the peace of Southeast region in less than 6 years. See details below 3 Likes |
Re: How Buhari And APC Turned Southeast To Gaza Warzone by franchasofficia: 11:40am On Aug 22 |
Buhari for whatever reason best known to him, intentionally destabilized Southeast and turned Southeast region to one of the most insecure regions in Nigeria within a space of 4 years. It hurts to watch Southeast region that was the safest and most secure regions in Nigeria before 2016 turn to a den of known and unknown gunmen sponsored by both government actors, separatists factions and criminal elements. Don't let anyone deceive you, the so called unknown gunmen operating in Southeast that target security operatives and sometimes ordinary Igbos are being sponsored by various groups; Simon Ekpa's separatist faction, Nigerian government, Imo state government and criminals taking advantage of the current instability in the Southeast. As a none Igbo person, it is easier to blame Igbos for the insecurity in Southeast when you look at it from a biased or hateful mindset of claiming that it is Igbos that supported IPOB, but let me also bring to your knowledge that Igbos have been supporting Biafra agitators ever since the end of the Nigeria-Biafra civil war that ended in 1970 because of the manner the war ended and how Nigerian federal government failed to sincerely reintegrate Igbos back to Nigeria, Igbos have always been emotional and sympathetic to Biafra cause because there has not been true closure to that issue of Biafra secession, all thanks to our successive failed and unintelligent Presidents since the end of the war. Unfortunately, in order to distract Nigerians from their failings, successive Nigerian Presidents have exploited Nigeria’s ethnic and sectarian divisions. The problem grew especially bad under President Muhammadu Buhari, president of the country, between 2015 and 2023. Buhari was no stranger to ethnic and religious discord. As a young military officer in the late 1960s, Buhari was at the vanguard of the forces that perpetrated genocide against the largely Igbo population in the self-declared Republic of Biafra. After a half-century, his disdain for the country’s Christian and animist Igbo did not diminish. He facilitated the transit of Fulani militiamen to raid and murder the region’s Christians and designated the peaceful representatives of the Biafrans known as IPOB to be terrorists. Alas, he found a friend in Secretary of State Antony Blinken and the Biden administration who argued that the anti-Igbo, anti-Christian violence was the result of migration caused by global warming. This was patently false, however. Climate change does not charter buses to transport death squads. Nevertheless, even as Islamists kidnapped Christian girls, slaughtered Christian men and boys, and burned churches, Blinken removed Nigeria from the religious freedom watch list. Biafrans, however, are not going to subordinate their faith to support State Department pandering, nor are the Igbo willing to pretend that they feel safe and secure in Nigeria. How did Buhari destabilized Southeast? First, before Buhari was sworn in as President in 2015, Nnamdi Kanu have been broadcasting in his self founded Radio Biafra and Goodluck Jonathan paid no attention to him and this made him irrelevant until Buhari came on board and used his wickedness for Igbos to make unknown Nnamdi Kanu a global star, I will come back to this. Next, Buhari destroyed Imo state by foisting Hopeless Uzodinma on Imo state people, one of the greatest judicial fraud to ever happen on earth. Buhari used his wickedness to make Nnamdi Kanu a star by senselessly clamping down on Nnamdi Kanu instead of ignoring him while observing his moves secretly. Buhari allowed Fulani herdsmen terrorists to almost overrun Southeast hinterlands and farms which made Igbos to cry out for help and Buhari then deceived Southeast Governors with "I will hand over to one of you" which made Dave Umahi to decamp from PDP to APC and also made Southeast Governors to remain silent over Fulani herdsmen terrorists atrocities in Southeast in order not to offend Buhari who promised them Presidency while Southwest Governors came together to float Southwest Security outfit Amotekun, Southeast Governors got deceived by Buhari which made Igbos to cry out to Nnamdi Kanu who kept calling on SE Governors to do something and as they refused to act, Kanu under IPOB floated ESN a voluntary regional security network with the aim of fighting off Fulani herdsmen terrorists from the southeast hinterlands and forests. The same Buhari turned around to use dangerous military force to clamp down on ESN and killed their leader which further radicalized some of their members who wanted to seek revenge for their murdered leader Ikonso. The same Buhari radicalized unarmed flag waving IPOB members through use of military and DSS to abduct, kill and massacre unarmed youths waving flags. Remember, Nnamdi Kanu had been broadcasting even under Goodluck Jonathan. Same Buhari proscribed IPOB even before they started fighting back. This same Buhari kidnapped Kanu from Kenya which further set Southeast on fire and despite all pleas by well meaning and respected Igbos that were even close to Buhari to temper justice with mercy and release Nnamdi Kanu just to pacify the situation and restore peace in Southeast region, Buhari hardened his heart. It was Buhari that radicalized IPOB members through the use of extreme military force to clamp down on flag-waving youths in what he duped "Python Dance" in which hundreds if not thousands of able bodied innocent Igbo youths got massacred, dehumanized and taken out via extrajudicial killings that went as far as going to higher institution hostels in Southeast to raid and adopt male students whether they were IPOB members or not, 90% or more of hundreds of those youths never returned till date. Nigerians from other regions, especially Southwest celebrated the dehumanization of their fellow youths in Igbo land by mentally unstable Nigerian soldiers in that operation "Python Dance". Hundreds were thrown into muddy erosion waters to drown, some shot publicly for trying to explain that they were innocent. Nigerians from other regions clapped for this injustice and inhumanity against their fellow citizens from different ethnicity and yet we expect Nigeria to prosper and become the country of our dream? 3 Likes |

Ennyjude:Nigerians must first accept their sins against one another. Then be deliberate and sincere in seeking for forgiveness and possible restitution of their sins against others as a way of bringing a honest closure and appeasing the angry and wandering spirits of Nigerians brutally murdered as a result of Nigeria's wickedness. The civil war hasn't ended until there is a closure. Nigerian federal government must come out boldly to apologize to the Igbos and make a deliberate effort to appease the Igbos for the decades of injustice against Southeast region and Igbos in Nigeria. If these things cant be done, then Nigeria need to accept the reality and peacefully divide to avoid wasting the future of Nigerian generations to come 2 Likes |

My people say every human carries his own madness cap in his bag. Only to be removed to wear when neccesary. Our brothers from across the Niger seem to have no bag to keep their madness cap, hence, they wear it all day. You poped champagne, put on your dancing shoes and started dancing when Kanu and his ESN started, those of us who spoke against the beat of the drum you were dancing to,you spat on us. Today you no longer enjoy the music, you want to stop dancing but unfortunately the drumer has become too powerul from your praises and dances, he has refused playing drum. You now turn around to blame those who told you not to dance initially. Achebe said “when the gods want to destroy a man, they start by making him mad” Your madness needs cure 1 Like |

You have said it all, but sadly enough; the truth is that Nigeria as a nation have been totally bastardized beyond repair, because the justice that you are clamoring for, is not possible with these set of humans - both leaders and followers, presently in Nigeria territory, as most of them have lost their sense of justice and fairness, based on tribalism and senseless loyalty to false religious beliefs.

helinues:It's not a laughing matter, mindless bloodletting is the worst crime any nation should condone. Nigeria is looking like a genocidal war zone. Shockingly most people are not bothered. Innocent blood spillage on a daily basis without justice will eventually sink any nation. That's exactly where this country is headed. Joel 3:19 KJV "Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land." This is also why I am so worried about what is happening in my Southeast region. Igbo youths being misled by that madman in Finland called Simon Ekpa need to call themselves to order before it becomes too late. Spilling blood of innocent people brings doom to any nation or community because blood is powerful. Simon Ekpa and every Igbo agitator must stop all forms of violent agitation that leads to spilling of innocent blood to avoid future vengeance by nature and God in Igbo land. I condemn every act of violence and killings by any Igbo agitating for Biafra, use international diplomacy please. This also serve as a warning to Yorubas, if you like listen, if you like don't listen but Bola Tinubu and his Lagos APC is leading you Yorubas astray to a future of doom, make una retrace una step before it's too late, Tinubu does not have up to 20 more years to spend on earth, remember the future of your born and unborn children, don't murder it because of one greedy corrupt man's selfish political ambition 1 Like |

franchasofficia: U see concerning the civil war, both the Nigerian government and the igbos are at fault. These issues lost in history are too far gone to start knowing who and who is at fault. Both sides need apologies. A war involves military action on both sides!!! Igbo people and Nigerian soldiers were killed. Furthermore, even though the killings were arguably more against the igbo people, we cannot unravel and mend these issues at this crucial point in our democracy. I suggest dealing with immediate issues first, such as the fulani herdsmen and the separatist movement in the east. Then the political leaders and representatives from all regions should come together to settle grievances from the time of the civil war |
Re: How Buhari And APC Turned Southeast To Gaza Warzone by franchasofficia: 5:57pm On Aug 22 |
shinitz:You sound very humane. But no time is far to make restitution, it is for the wandering aggrieved spirits and souls to rest and bring sincere closure. Did you know that Germany still paid some groups compensation for world war II carnage they caused around 1943? Because of that Hiroshima bombing of Japan by the US, US regretted that act and apologized to Japan after world war II and made a lifetime pledge to always stand and protect Japan at all cost. Because of the Holocaust in Germany in which German Nazis executed millions of Jews in Germany, Germany apologized to Jews after the world war II and pledged to continually stand by Israel, which is why German always stand by Israel no matte what today. These are nations that understand the negative repercussions of spilling innocent civilian blood and the need for restitution. But I do understand your point, you are correct but honestly making restitution requires courage, it doesn't always come easy, it's always a sacrifice one pays to clear his or her path for a better future. It's not something you don with comfort, you pay restitution in pains and regrets. When I mentioned civil war, I am not talking about Biafran soldiers that died during the war, of course soldiers know what they sign for and it's expected that soldiers will be killed on both sides during war but extending the brutality and massacre to innocent vulnerable civilians, especially children and women is always frowned at by the whole world, and you know whatever humans condemn on earth is condemned in heaven? If we don't bring absolute closure to these issues, they will continue to drag Nigeria backward even when we think they don't matter, they are spiritual matters. But again, I understand your point and I wished such would bring the needed closure and progress for all |
Re: How Buhari And APC Turned Southeast To Gaza Warzone by franchasofficia: 6:01pm On Aug 22 |
Mrexcell:it's even beyond human revenge, it's more of a supernatural reward. That 1966 Northern pogrom is definitely having some negative effect on the entire North whether we accept it or not. God is not a God of injustice and God hates the spilling of innocent blood, that thing can wipe out a nation but we Nigerians are ignorant of all these. A lot of innocent souls have been wasted in Nigeria and we are not making any dedicated effort to avenge their deaths, restitute and say enough is enough of injustice and killing of innocent souls, rather we give excuses, justifications of why our actions or actions of our uniformed men are justified |

Kobojunkieee:You are very correct, but are you not aware that Nigeria's electoral body and the judiciary are super corrupt? Do you think most of the Governors and state/national assembly members were elected by majority of Igbos? Didn't you see what happened in Imo state where Buhari foisted a man that came 4th on Imo state people against their wish? The only Governor elected by the people in Southeast today is Alex Otti, and it was because the Peter Obi effect during the last general election. Igbos also elected Chukwuma Soludo, Dave Umahi, but if Nigeria's electoral body was working, when these guys fail in their first tenure, they will not be reelected for second tenure but they usually take advantage of the compromised electoral and judiciary to perpetuate themselves into power. So don't blame the people entirely. 1 Like |

Re: How Buhari And APC Turned Southeast To Gaza Warzone by Kobojunkieee: 6:23pm On Aug 22 |
franchasofficia:1. So, because it is assumed corrupt, you will never then attempt to use it in removing any of the leaders that plague you? Don't you see that such inaction is construed as a vote of confidence in favor of the very men who wield power given to them by you over you? Wake the fk up! 2. The recent review by Osita Chidoka shows that in both Imo and Bayelsa States, the people elected the current governors into power. You can't sit out an election and then claim that those who were elected were not elected by you. It does not in fact work that way at all. Your abstinence vote counts as a vote in favor of whoever eventually gets the mandate. 3. I didn't see the people of the same Imo State try to reject Buhari's decision which is within their power to do meaning they accepted it. Again, this is the way these things work. If you hate something you raise your will against it. Not sit back and whine about it, expecting to be taken seriously by that. 4. Story, story! You mean the APC stooge who only switched parties in 2022 to improve his chances of winning an election in the region, the same man the deputy speaker of the senate(another man whom the people refuse to recall by the way) claims will either vacate the government seat come next election or decamp back to APC? Nigerians like fooling themselves a lot.! 5. These men were elected by the numbers sure but that does not mean they are not as dirty as the many others out there in the same place. After all is said and done, your governors(and politicians in the region — state Senators and Representatives) are the reasons for the military incursions in your land. They are the only ones who can demand the military be removed from the land. So ask them why they refuse to demand the pull out of the military from the zone to date. 6. Newsflash! When it comes to the effective workings of democracy — Government by the people for the people — the people are solely to blame!
